Happy Day 1 of Shark Week!Today, we're on the ground at Milan Fashion Week. There were debuts from Meryll Rogge at Marni, Maria Grazia Chiuri at Fendi, and – most anticipated of all – Demna at Gucci. Nicole Phelps, Head of Editorial Content at Vogue Italia Francesca Ragazzi, and Vogue contributor Luke Leitch were there to take it all in, and The Run-Through was right there with them.The question going into the Gucci show was: who is Demna now? After a decade of deconstruction and conceptual provocation at Balenciaga—jackets made from trousers, outrageous couture wrapped in 50 meters of tulle—the designer stepped into one of fashion's most iconic houses with an eye towards what fashion needs now.At Marni, Meryll Rogge brought her knitwear expertise and a genuine emotional connection to the brand: she bought her first pair of Marni platforms with her first paycheck as an assistant at Marc Jacobs, and wore a Marni skirt to her brother's wedding as a teenager. At Moschino, Creative Director Adrian Appiolaza went back to his Argentine roots, finding inspiration in the landmarks, monuments and icons of his home country. The show closed with a model carrying a piggy bank purse and wearing shoes encrusted in euros. "It's not just about creativity, it's about finances," Appiolaza told Phelps backstage.Earlier in the week, Vogue World Milan was announced for September 22nd at the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II—"the Sistine Chapel of Shopping," as Leitch called it—with the theme of the human touch in the age of technology. Next stop, Paris!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture. Hosted by Chloe Malle, Head of Editorial Content, Vogue U.S.; Chioma Nnadi, Head of British Vogue; and Nicole Phelps, Director of Vogue Runway, each episode features the latest fashion news and exclusive designer and celebrity interviews.

The Falkland Islands War (April 2–June 14, 1982) was a 74-day undeclared conflict between Argentina and the United Kingdom over sovereignty of the South Atlantic islands. Following Argentina's invasion on April 2, a British task force reclaimed the territory, resulting in 649 Argentine and 255 British military deaths.Argentina (referring to them as Islas Malvinas) claimed the islands, while Britain had maintained control since 1833.Argentina invaded on April 2, 1982. The UK, led by Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, dispatched a naval task force on April 5, 1982. The war lasted for 74 days, with intense fighting in the air, at sea, and on land.During the 1982 Falklands War, Peru provided significant, covert military support to Argentina, acting as its most active regional ally. President Fernando Belaúnde offered total support, supplying 10 Mirage M-5P fighter-bombers, along with ammunition, missiles, and long-range fuel tanks. Peruvian personnel also helped train Argentine forces on war planes. Peru tried to act as a mediator early in the conflict, but after the sinking of the ARA General Belgrano, it moved to active support.The support was driven by strong "Latin American solidarity" sentiment.The war ended with the surrender of Argentine forces on June 14, 1982, returning the islands to British control.Send me a text but know that I can't respond hereUpdated official intro without the season year Support the showYou will find the full transcript behind the show notes: https://interspanish.buzzsprout.comIf you have a story or topic you would like me to cover, please send your suggestions to: InterSpanishPodcast@gmail.com Please visit my socials: https://linktr.ee/InterSpanish
This week Sam, English Dan, Chris, Santi B and special guest Joey D'Urso look back on (almost) two whole rounds of Torneo Apertura action, which saw Marcelo Gallardo step down as River Plate manager, signing off with a 3–1 win over Banfield, Independiente Rivadavia continue their excellent start to the season and Independiente (de Avellaneda) have a torrid week in Mendoza (not for the first time). As well as all that, Lanús followed up last week's home win with an away win after extra time over Flamengo to claim the Recopa Sudamericana.
It's high time the Argentine working class moves past the failures of ‘Peronism' and towards a genuine and organised communist-led movement against imperialism. As in the past during the Menem, De la Rua and Macri administrations, now again since 2023 and the election of Javier Milei, many Peronist legislators and governors who were elected on a platform of social progress have changed sides, abandoning the political project they claimed to support, adapting to the new scenario, and selling their services to the government in power. Peronism has consistently been exposed and found wanting; a genuinely anti-imperialist movement must replace it, with communists at its core and in its vanguard. Subscribe! Donate!

Danny Rensch went from being weaponized as a chess prodigy by a cult to co-founding Chess.com — detailed on part two of this two-part episode. (Find part one here!)Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1290What We Discuss with Danny Rensch:Chess.com grew from a bootstrapped startup — laughed out of investor rooms — into a unicorn by building a chess creator economy and content ecosystem years before the pandemic boom, capturing 99% of chess's explosive growth when The Queen's Gambit and COVID lockdowns sent 400,000 new members flooding in per day.Catching cheaters in chess is a high-stakes statistical science. Chess.com employs 30 full-time specialists, from research scientists to in-house detectives, who use AI-driven algorithms to detect engine-assisted play, acting only when evidence would hold up in court rather than in the court of public opinion.The digital revolution in chess has dramatically compressed the learning curve. Kids now grow up playing against Magnus Carlsen and top grandmasters online, producing prodigies like a 12-year-old Argentine dubbed "the Messi of chess" who may break the youngest grandmaster record in history.Chess.com's public stance against Russia after the Ukraine invasion landed Danny Rensch on a dark web hit list, and years of closing cheaters' accounts have brought direct threats — including one player who tracked his tournament locations and emailed that he'd feel a gun behind his neck.Danny's most powerful insight is that you can redefine your relationship with your past. Forgiveness isn't rewriting what happened, it's freeing yourself from it, and believing "everything happens for a reason" becomes actionable when you realize you get to choose the reason and reclaim the power over your own story.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Jeudi 26 février à Buenos Aires, une dizaine de militants de Greenpeace ont été interpellés après s'être brièvement introduits dans le Parlement argentin pour protester contre un projet de loi qui vise à réduire la protection des glaciers du pays. Déjà menacés par le changement climatique, les glaciers argentins sont dans le collimateur de Javier Milei. Climatosceptique notoire, le président ultralibéral veut passer la loi de protection des glaciers à la tronçonneuse pour ouvrir la voie à l'industrie minière. Jeudi, les sénateurs argentins devaient examiner un projet de flexibilisation de la loi. Dans la province de San Juan, la population locale se mobilise pour préserver l'eau face aux appétits miniers. De notre correspondant de retour de San Juan, Nous sommes au cœur de la cordillère des Andes, à plus de 4 000 mètres d'altitude. Le vent souffle fort, mais l'oxygène commence à se faire rare. Autour de nous, des montagnes aux tons ocre, brun, presque pourpre. Et, au fond, une grande tache blanche : le glacier de San Lorenzo, au sud de l'Argentine. Silvio Pastore est glaciologue à l'université de San Juan : « Aujourd'hui, il est dans un processus continu de dégradation, et nous allons le voir disparaître presque entièrement. » Des roches aux reflets ambrés attirent son attention. Leur couleur, leurs textures, leur poids : tout indique que la zone est riche en minerais, assure-t-il, et pas n'importe lesquels. Cuivre, or, argent… À écouter aussiLes glaciers argentins : la fièvre de l'or rouge Pour Silvio Pastore, la présence de ces minerais pose un dilemme. Depuis 2010, les 17 000 glaciers argentins sont protégés par la loi, tout comme les sols congelés des zones périglaciaires. Or, ces dernières sont souvent riches en cuivre, un métal crucial pour la transition énergétique, et donc pour la lutte contre le réchauffement climatique et la fonte des glaciers : « Je suis actuellement dans une zone périglaciaire, la loi interdit l'activité minière ici. Mais je peux voir à l'œil nu et démontrer scientifiquement qu'une grande partie de ces montagnes ne contiennent ni eau ni glace. Donc logiquement, il y a des zones qui peuvent être libérées. » Silvio Pastore est membre d'un think tank proche du lobby de l'industrie minière, qui assure que 17 milliards de dollars d'investissements dépendent de la flexibilisation de la loi voulue par Javier Milei. En aval, des habitants inquiets et méfiants À une cinquantaine de kilomètres en aval du glacier de San Lorenzo, les habitants de la petite ville de Jachal se sont organisés en assemblée citoyenne pour défendre leur rivière. Après 20 ans de cohabitation avec la mine d'or Veladero, Carolina Caliva ne croit plus aux promesses de l'industrie minière : « Ils sont arrivés avec leur petit refrain sur le plein emploi et le développement durable. La réalité, c'est que notre ville est aussi pauvre qu'avant, si ce n'est plus. » Carolina fait référence aux scandales de contamination au mercure de la rivière Jachal qui ont éclaboussé la mine Veladero à plusieurs reprises. À lire aussiArgentine : des opposants au président Milei se mobilisent pour la protection des glaciers Omar Aciar est agriculteur. Il nous montre la terre sèche et craquelée de son champ de luzerne. Si l'industrie minière continue de se développer dans la région, dans dix ans, il sera impossible de cultiver quoi que ce soit à Jachal, assure-t-il : « Que va-t-on laisser à nos enfants ? Nous n'avons déjà presque plus d'eau potable, les puits sont quasiment à sec. Dans ce contexte, comment pourrait-on sacrifier nos glaciers ? C'est pourtant évident que l'eau, c'est la vie. »

Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. Season 6, EPISODE 277 Dry Creek Ranch: Passion For Red Angus Dry Creek Ranch in Amidon, North Dakota, is a family-run Red Angus cattle operation that focuses on raising registered and commercial cattle, selling breeding bulls, and offering ranch-raised beef directly to customers. The ranch is operated by the Robison family and emphasizes practical, efficient cattle genetics and long-term herd improvement, with activities that include private-treaty sales and ranch-direct beef marketing. It's part of the western North Dakota ranching tradition, combining working-ranch livestock production with a direct connection to consumers and other cattle producers in the region. Current State Of The Beef Business Beef prices are climbing faster than almost anything else in the consumer price index. The broad beef and veal category is up 15 percent over the past year, as of January. Uncooked ground beef has hit a new record high, after posting its biggest jump since June of 2020, according to new government data released last Friday. That stands out against the rest of the grocery aisle, where price pressures have eased. Chicken prices rose just over 1 percent in the past year, while milk prices have stayed mostly flat. At the wholesale level, the average value of choice beef in 2025 was up 16 percent from the previous year, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Even major meatpackers like Tyson Foods are feeling the strain, with the company's beef division reporting quarterly losses since early 2024. The surge in beef prices has pushed the White House to respond. President Donald Trump has pledged to increase competition in beef processing and has expanded Argentine beef import quotas in an attempt to boost supply. But the situation is more complicated. The U.S. cattle herd has fallen to its smallest level since the early 1950's. Drought, higher production costs, and elevated interest rates have all made raising cattle more expensive. Don Close, a senior animal protein analyst at Terrain Ag, says the cattle industry is cyclical, but this downturn has lasted longer than expected. Right now, ranchers can make more money selling animals young for slaughter than keeping them to rebuild herds. And even if herd expansion started today, it wouldn't reach grocery store shelves until at least 2028 — meaning beef prices could stay high for years. Meanwhile, the U.S. has halted shipments of live cattle from Mexico following the return of the New World screwworm. Imports from South America may provide some relief, but those supplies are mostly used for ground beef and won't quickly solve the broader cattle shortage. And that is a quick snap shot of the current beef business Reference: https://fortune.com/2026/02/14/why-are-beef-prices-so-high-american-cattle-herd-inflation/ Five Federally Indicted For Alleged $220 Million Nationwide Cattle Fraud Scheme Five individuals were federally indicted last week for their roles in an alleged $220 million nationwide fraud scheme involving the online and direct-to-consumer meat business Agridime. Those indicted by a Fort Worth federal grand jury on February 11, 2026, were: Jed Wood of Fort Worth, Texas, charged with three counts of wire fraud, one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and one count of money laundering involving wiring more than $63,000 to a lender for “Home Payoff” Joshua Link of Strafford, Missouri, charged with ten counts of wire fraud, one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and two counts of money laundering, including wiring more than $527,000 to purchase real property Tia Link of Smithton, Missouri, charged with three counts of wire fraud, one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and one count of money laundering, including wiring more than $527,000 to purchase real property Taylor Bang of Killdeer, North Dakota, charged with eight counts of wire fraud, one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and one count of money laundering Royana Thomas of Arlington, Texas, charged with six counts of wire fraud, one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and one count of money laundering As alleged in the indictment, each of the defendants were associated with Agridime LLC, a business headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas that offered cattle sales and meat processing and retail services to the public. Jed Wood served as the Operations Director. Joshua Link served as the Executive Director. Tia Link served as the Marketing Director. Taylor Bang served as a cattle broker, and Royana Thomas served as the financial controller. The indictment alleges that, from January 2021 through December 2023, the five defendants, acting through Agridime, perpetrated a fraud scheme in which they falsely represented to individual cattle purchasers, cattle ranchers, and feedlots that Agridime would use their funds to purchase specific individual cattle from each victim, raise the cattle, and eventually sell the meat from the same specific individual cattle for a profit. In reality, as the indictment charges, the defendants did not use victim funds as promised and instead used newer cattle purchaser funds to pay Agridime operating expenses, pay funds owed by Agridime to earlier cattle purchasers, pay personal expenses, and purchase real property.

EPISODE 121 DETAILS U.S. Ranchers Say No To Argentina Beef President Donald Trump's new beef trade deal with Argentina could increase imports by as much as 80,000 tons this year — a move that's raising red flags for some U.S. ranchers. The agreement takes effect today. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins is defending the decision, saying critics are missing the bigger picture. She argues the additional imports are focused on ground beef and are intended to help bring down prices at the grocery store — noting that ground beef is not the primary product most U.S. ranchers produce. But not everyone is on board. State agriculture leaders from North Dakota to Texas are pushing back. North Dakota Farmers Union President Matt Perdue says cattle producers in his state are disappointed. He argues the deal is unlikely to significantly lower consumer prices and warns it could put added pressure on domestic producers. Meanwhile, Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller is calling for a stronger “America First” approach, especially as the U.S. cattle herd sits at historic lows. Miller says the priority should be rebuilding America's cattle numbers and expanding domestic processing capacity to keep ranchers competitive. He's also voiced concern about expanding Argentine beef imports at a time when U.S. producers are already facing tight supplies. Looking ahead, Miller says the next Farm Bill must firmly support American ranchers, and he's outlining proposals aimed at strengthening the cattle industry for the long term.

L'Argentine est à l'arrêt ce jeudi 19 février 2026 alors que le président argentin Javier Milei fait face à sa quatrième grève générale en un peu plus de deux ans de mandat. Un appel à la grève générale lancé par la CGT, principale centrale syndicale du pays, contre sa réforme de dérégulation du travail. Le texte qui a déjà été adopté par le Sénat, passe aujourd'hui devant le Congrès. C'est dans ce contexte tendu que le principal producteur de pneus d'Argentine a fermé ses portes hier (18 février 2026). Fate existait depuis 80 ans, nous apprend Infobae. Aujourd'hui, 920 personnes se retrouvent sans emploi. L'entreprise n'est pas en faillite ou en liquidation judiciaire. Elle ferme ses portes tout simplement, précise le quotidien. C'est la première grande entreprise argentine à le faire au cours de ses dernières années. « L'usine, la plus plus grande d'Argentine, produisait plus de 5 millions de pneus par an », précise le Buenos Aires Times. Qu'est-ce qui a poussé Fate à jeter l'éponge ? Le communiqué publié par l'entreprise et que l'on peut lire dans Infobae, est assez laconique. Il y est question de « changements des conditions du marché (qui) nous obligent à aborder les défis futurs avec une approche différente » et à « mettre fin à tous les contrats de travail ». « Depuis un an et demi, Fate perd entre deux et trois millions de dollars chaque mois », indique La Nacion. Pour le Buenos Aires Times, l'explication est à chercher du côté de la libéralisation des échanges décidée par le gouvernement de Javier Milei, qui a conduit à une forte hausse des importations. « Le secteur industriel argentin traverse une crise majeure », écrit encore le quotidien. Polémiques autour du nouveau président péruvien José Maria Balcazar, issu des rangs de la gauche, prend les rênes du Pérou pour quelques mois. Mais ce qui pose problème, ce sont ses prises de position en faveur du mariage des enfants, souligne El Comercio. En juin 2023, au cours du débat devant la Commission de la Justice sur l'interdiction du mariage des mineurs, il a affirmé que les relations sexuelles précoces « aident au développement psychologique futur de la femme » du moment qu'il n'y a pas de violence, rappelle La Republica. Autres taches sur son CV : des accusations de détournements de fonds et de corruption. Dans un communiqué dont se fait l'écho La Razon, l'Ordre des avocats de Lambayeque, ville dont est originaire José Maria Balcazar, dit son opposition à son élection en tant que chef de l'État et rappelle qu'il a été renvoyé de l'ordre pour des manquements éthiques. Il fait l'objet de plusieurs plaintes, insiste La Republica. Son élection est une « irresponsabilité impardonnable », s'insurge El Comercio. Le Parlement a commis « une erreur historique ». Les « déclarations et les convictions » de José Maria Balcazar sont « incompatibles avec les principes démocratiques et les droits humains fondamentaux », poursuit le journal qui dénonce la « déconnexion morale » des parlementaires péruviens. Certaines régions touristiques de Colombie aux mains de groupes armés En Colombie, le journal El Tiempo s'inquiète de l'influence du Clan del Golfo dans la région de Santa Marta, dans le nord. Le cartel « gouverne-t-il » cette région, se demande le journal qui raconte comment un simple accident de voiture a permis de mettre en lumière une réalité préoccupante. Le fils d'un militant écologiste a eu un accident au volant d'une voiture de location près d'une plage. Des hommes à moto sont immédiatement arrivés et ont exigé 1,5 million de pesos, un peu moins de 350 euros, pour soi-disant « compenser les dégâts ». Un cas qui illustre le contrôle exercé par des groupes armés dans plusieurs secteurs touristiques, écrit El Tiempo. « Le racket est devenu la norme, à tel point que cela fait partie du fonctionnement économique quotidien », explique au journal le défenseur des droits humains, Lerber Dimas. C'est même considéré comme « un service public supplémentaire » dont il faut s'acquitter pour pouvoir travailler. Un vendeur de Taganga, village sur la côte des Caraïbes, explique ainsi que les gangs se servent sur « chaque chaise louée, chaque poisson vendu, chaque billet de bateau acheté ». Pendant ce temps-là, les négociations avec ces groupes criminels lancées par le gouvernement dans le cadre du processus de « paix totale » n'avancent pas vraiment, constate El Tiempo. Mais ailleurs dans le pays, les accords de paix de 2016 et les efforts de Gustavo Petro portent leurs fruits. C'est le cas notamment de Mesetas, ancien bastion des rebelles des FARC devenu un haut-lieu du tourisme. Notre correspondante Najet Benrabaa est allée rencontrer les habitants.

À Port-au-Prince, la violence des gangs a des conséquences extrêmement lourdes sur l'accès aux soins. Près des 3/4 des structures médicales ne fonctionnent plus et ce sont essentiellement les organisations humanitaires qui font tourner les quelques centres de santé et hôpitaux toujours ouverts. Nos envoyés spéciaux Justine Fontaine et Achim Lippold ont pu se rendre à l'Hôpital de Drouillard géré par Médecins sans frontières, situé à Cité Soleil, quartier sous la coupe d'un groupe criminel. À l'entrée, une lourde porte métallique et l'obligation de déposer ses armes. La violence n'a pas sa place dans l'hôpital. « Les différentes unités de soin sont protégées contre les tirs. Si l'établissement n'est pas directement visé par les gangs, il peut toujours être touché par des balles perdues » des gangs ou des policiers, raconte notre journaliste Achim Lippold. Ici, bourreaux et victimes sont soignés sans distinction. « La vie coincée entre les gangs et la police qui commet, elle aussi des exactions a profondément traumatisé les habitants », explique encore Achim Lippold. En plus du stress quotidien, le chômage, le manque de moyens et la malnutrition pèsent sur l'état de santé des Haïtiens. « Les gens se sentent vulnérables quand ils ne peuvent pas aider ou prendre soin de leur famille », explique le docteur Darena Diomeri. Anne Cantener prolonge la discussion avec Mumuza Muhindo, chef de mission sortant de Médecins sans frontières pour Haïti, en ligne depuis Port-au-Prince. « Travailler en Haïti, c'est accepter de prendre beaucoup de risques », explique d'emblée l'humanitaire. « Notre priorité, c'est la sécurité des malades et de notre personnel ». À plusieurs reprises, MSF a dû fermer certaines de ses structures. « Nous adaptons nos activités en fonction du contexte sécuritaire », précise Mumuza Muhindo qui prend la température chaque matin, auprès de ses contacts. « Il faut dialoguer avec tous les acteurs de la zone : chefs de gangs mais aussi chefs traditionnels, prêtres, pasteurs... C'est un travail quotidien. » Les besoins sont énormes car seules 25% environ des structures médicales fonctionnent à Port-au-Prince « et encore, pas de façon optimale », précise le responsable. Elles manquent notamment de personnels car les gens ont peur de venir travailler. « Pour eux, c'est s'exposer aux risques de kidnappings, de viols ou de balles perdues ». Un 8è président pour le Pérou en 10 ans Le Pérou connaîtra aujourd'hui le nom de son nouveau président. Les Parlementaires devront choisir entre quatre candidats, nous apprend La Republica. Trois hommes et une femme. Un vote en présentiel mais à bulletins secrets, explique le journal. Il faudra sans doute deux tours tant le Parlement est fragmenté. À deux mois de la présidentielle, El Comercio espère que les élus privilégieront l'interêt national, et non pas « les calculs électoraux de court terme ». Le journal les appelle à choisir « un profil consensuel, une autorité morale en ce moment de profonde méfiance institutionnelle. » Le nouveau président succèdera à José Jeri qui a été destitué hier (17 février 2026). Il avait pris le pouvoir en octobre 2025, après le destitution - déjà - de Dina Boluarte. Selon La Republica, ce que l'histoire retiendra, c'est que José Jeri n'est pas resté longtemps à la tête de l'État et qu'il a déçu. Il a commis des erreurs, confirme El Comercio. Plaintes pour trafic d'influences, réunions secrètes avec des hommes d'affaires chinois, embauches illégales de personnes qui lui avaient rendu visite au siège du gouvernement et toute une série d'interrogations sur son éthique. Voilà ce qui a conduit José Jeri vers la sortie. « Quand un président perd la confiance des gens aussi vite, la chute politique est inévitable », écrit El Comercio. « José Jeri le savait mais il a continué à justifier l'injustifiable, changeant de version au fur et à mesure qu'apparaissaient des preuves compromettantes », déplore le journal. Le président a fini par être lâché, y compris par la droite péruvienne. Cette nouvelle crise politique au Pérou pourrait éloigner encore un plus les électeurs des urnes. « Les responsables politiques péruviens, qu'ils soient de droite ou de gauche, trouvent toujours le moyen de te décevoir », commente avec amertume l'écrivain et célèbre animateur de télévision Jaime Baily interrogé par La Republica. « Ils s'arrangent toujours pour que tu finisses par avoir honte d'avoir voté pour eux ». Alors Jaime Baily a trouvé la solution : il ne vote plus. Le gouvernement argentin veut-il protéger ou museler la presse ? En Argentine, les journalistes ne pourront pas couvrir les prochaines manifestations contre la réforme du travail comme ils l'entendent. Hier, (17 février 2026), le gouvernement a publié des recommandations à l'intention de la presse, explique Clarin. Les journalistes devront rester sur un trottoir, d'un côté de la place du Congrès, et ne pas se mettre entre les forces de sécurité et les manifestants en cas de débordements. Ce serait vous mettre vous-même en danger car « face à des faits violents, les forces de l'ordre interviendront », menace le ministère de la Sécurité dans un communiqué publié sur les réseaux sociaux. Le gouvernement dit s'inquiéter pour la sécurité des journalistes alors que la semaine dernière, lors du vote du texte par le Sénat, une manifestation avait dégénéré. Mais l'Association des correspondants étrangers en Argentine dénonce une entrave à la liberté de la presse, rapporte Pagina 12. L'Acera estime que le gouvernement cherche à intimider les journalistes et méconnaît sa propre responsabilité : l'État doit protéger les journalistes quand ils travaillent sur la voie publique. C'est un devoir reconnu internationalement, précise encore l'association. Le journal de la 1ère On a assisté à une « déferlante rouge » dans les centres-villes de Martinique hier (17 février 2026), à l'occasion de Mardi-Gras.

Hormis peut-être Christine Lagarde, anciennement à la tête du Fonds Monétaire International et actuelle présidente de la Banque Centrale Européenne, les femmes sont globalement absentes de la finance mondiale. Invisibilisées aussi dans les discours économiques, elles jouent pourtant un rôle crucial dans la gestion des dettes de leurs foyers. Aux quatre coins du monde, les femmes contractent des prêts, non pas pour se lancer dans la spéculation mais pour régler les dépenses de la famille, la nourrir, la loger, la soigner. Face à l'irrégularité et la faiblesse des revenus, elles compensent à crédit. À l'échelle mondiale, les femmes représentent 80% des bénéficiaires de microcrédits, ces petits prêts aux taux d'intérêts élevés. En Inde, elles peuvent cumuler, jusqu'à 15 dettes différentes. Véritable travail du quotidien, elles comptent les sous, notent les dépenses, négocient avec les créanciers, parfois contractent d'autres prêts pour rembourser les précédents. Cette activité de l'ombre souvent tabou, parfois honteuse, toujours épuisante, les fait rentrer dans la spirale infernale de l'endettement. Loin d'être à la marge, ces femmes sont des actrices de l'économie, sans elles pas de consommation, ni de profits pour les prêteurs. Pourquoi les femmes sont celles qui contractent les dettes ?

The sinking of the General Belgrano on May 2nd 1982 by a British submarine was one of the most controversial events of the Falklands War. The strike resulted in the deaths of 323 Argentine sailors, nearly half of Argentina's total casualties during the conflict. But though the escalation over the preceding months was swift, in some ways, the Falklands War had been simmering for centuries. Argentina, the closest mainland nation to the islands, saw them as a part of its territory and national identity, while Britain defended its historical claim, citing the wishes of the islanders. In April 1982, decades of tension exploded into war, leaving nearly 1,000 dead. But how did the islands fall under British control in the first place? Why did the war break out after so many years of diplomacy? And how did the political situations in both countries contribute to one of the strangest conflicts in modern British history? This is a Short History Of The Falklands War. A Noiser podcast production. Hosted by John Hopkins. With thanks to Sir Lawrence Freedman, official historian of the Falklands Campaign.

En Argentine, la fonte des glaciers sous l'effet du changement climatique réveille de funestes appétits. Le président Milei lui-même, adepte du tronçonnage en tous genres verrait bien quelques coupes sombres dans la loi de protection des glaciers. Ultralibéral et climatosceptique,son côté trumpiste le pousserait bien à forer partout. Et là, sous les décombres des majestueux géants de glaces du grand Sud argentin se trouvent des minerais critiques, notamment le cuivre : essentiel à la transition énergétique. Les populations locales tentent de parer les coups de pelleteuse. Mais, le Parlement pourrait, dans les semaines à venir, ouvrir la voie à de pharaoniques investissements miniers. « Les glaciers argentins : la fièvre de l'or rouge », un Grand reportage de Théo Conscience.

Ice dancer Hannah Lim joins co-host Ashley Cain to talk about representing South Korea on the road to the 2026 Olympics in Milan. Hannah shares how she first stepped on the ice at four in Richmond Hill in Toronto, Ontario, skated in free skate until she was 14, then found her home in ice dance after trying the Argentine tango and leaning into the artistic side of skating. She explains how a club connection brought her to Montreal, where she teamed up with partner Ye, and why their disciplined routine still includes days when it's hard to show up—moments where her partner and coaches keep her grounded. From the pride of hearing Korea's anthem and seeing the flag raised to a pre-competition hug that syncs their breathing, Hannah describes the details that carry them forward, plus her reminder to women athletes that it doesn't have to be “blood and sweat and tears” to improve.
Peacewarts: Dept. of Living Roots - Barter & Sharing (Class 12) We explore how local economies built on barter, time banking, and gift systems provide security during financial instability.

Deux jours après la fin du mandat du Conseil présidentiel de transition, le Premier ministre Alix Didier Fils-Aimé est désormais le seul au pouvoir en Haïti. Les activités ont progressivement repris ce lundi matin (9 février 2026) en Haïti. Dans certaines communes, notamment à Pétion-Ville, des scènes à caractère pré-carnavalesque ont même été observées hier soir (8 février), avec des bandes de rara, des foules dans la rue, principalement des jeunes, qui dansaient et chantaient dans une atmosphère détendue. Mais ce n'est pas un signe d'adhésion ou de soulagement, plutôt un calme attentif, remarque notre correspondant à Port-au-Prince, Peterson Luxama. L'histoire récente invite à la prudence. Alix Didier Fils-Aimé bénéficie d'un appui clair de la communauté internationale, en particulier des États-Unis. Or, en Haïti, l'histoire montre que le soutien international, et américain surtout, répond souvent d'abord à des intérêts géopolitiques et stratégiques, qui ne coïncident pas toujours avec les attentes profondes de la population. S'il bénéficie du soutien de Washington, Alix Didier Fils-Aimé devra composer avec une classe politique très divisée. Sans son adhésion, il aura du mal à conduire le pays vers des élections. Et cette division s'est vue lors de la cérémonie de passation de pouvoir : certains membres du Conseil présidentiel de transition n'avaient pas fait le déplacement samedi. (7 février 2026) À lire aussiFin du CPT en Haïti: le Premier ministre, Alix Didier Fils-Aimé, prend les rênes de l'exécutif Des balles « made in USA » au Mexique Une enquête coordonnée par le Consortium international des journalistes d'investigation, et à laquelle ont participé le New York Times et Proceso, révèle comment une usine de l'armée états-unienne alimente la violence au Mexique. C'est celle de Lake City. Une usine exploitée par Olin Winchester et installée dans une base de l'armée dans le Missouri. Elle fabrique notamment des munitions de calibre 50, des balles capables d'abattre un hélicoptère ou de percer un blindage léger. Mais ces munitions ne sont pas seulement destinées à l'armée. Elles sont aussi vendues aux civils aux États-Unis. Pour quoi faire ? On ne sait pas trop. Toujours est-il qu'elles ont fini par se retrouver de l'autre côté de la frontière, au Mexique donc, où elles ont été utilisées dans près de cent affrontements, ces dernières années. Le New York Times indique que six cartels mexicains utilisent ces balles fabriquées dans l'usine de Lake City. Ces cartels, ce sont les mêmes que ceux que Donald Trump a classés organisations terroristes l'année dernière (2025). Toujours aux États-Unis, beaucoup restent très marqués par la mort, il y a un mois de Renee, tuée par la police de l'immigration à Minneapolis. Peu de temps après, l'ICE avait fait une deuxième victime dans cette même ville. Le scandale a largement dépassé les militants opposés à la politique migratoire extrêmement dure de Donald Trump. Même des figures du parti républicain le critiquent. C'est le cas de l'ancienne sénatrice Amy Koch, que notre correspondant à Washington Vincent Souriau a rencontrée. Elle est aujourd'hui lobbyiste et assure que beaucoup sont restés sidérés, notamment les élus qui travaillent au quotidien avec le gouverneur de cet État, le démocrate Tim Walz.

C'est mythique aux États-Unis. Toute la presse du continent en parle. « Bad Bunny au Super Bowl, une image de l'Amérique », titre ainsi Le Devoir au Canada. « Un show qui rappelle que l'Amérique est un continent, et pas seulement les États-Unis », note Pagina12 en Argentine. Pour La Razon, au Mexique, ce show n'était pas seulement de la musique ; c'était de la politique avec du rythme. Le quotidien y voit une ode au nationalisme, pas celui à la sauce Trump du « nous » contre « eux ». Mais « un nous qui ne demande pas la permission d'exister », écrit La Razon, sans pour autant tenter d'effacer l'autre. Même si le spectacle était relativement policé hier soir, Bad Bunny dénonce régulièrement la mainmise des États-Unis sur son île natale, les millions de touristes qui y déferlent chaque année et que les spéculateurs préfèrent aux natifs porto-ricains qui, eux, ont de plus en plus de mal à se loger.

Andy Werner is VP of Partnerships and Strategy at Transak, one of the world's leading fiat-to-crypto on-ramp providers. Werner shares his journey through fintech — from big banks to startups — and explains how Transak is building the compliance and payments infrastructure that quietly powers hundreds of crypto platforms globally. While the company operates in what he jokingly calls the "boring" side of crypto, Werner argues that boring is exactly what payments infrastructure should be: seamless, reliable, and invisible to the end user. Why you should listen The conversation dives deep into the evolving role of stablecoins, which Werner frames not as ideological crypto instruments but as practical tools for builders. For developers and businesses, stablecoins function like programmable payment rails — enabling instant settlement, global reach, and lower costs through a single integration. He points to the past 18–24 months as a turning point, driven by clearer regulation in the U.S. and frameworks like MiCA in Europe. This regulatory momentum, combined with improving UX abstraction around wallets and compliance, is accelerating enterprise adoption and opening new product categories. Werner also reflects on stablecoin usage through the lens of his Argentine roots, where inflation and currency instability make the value proposition immediately obvious. In markets across Latin America, Africa, and parts of Asia, dollar-backed stablecoins act as a digital escape hatch — giving consumers access to dollar savings, payments, and yield via nothing more than a smartphone. From remittances to trade finance and cross-border payroll, these real-world use cases are driving rapid growth. Transak is already seeing 30–40% of its volume in stablecoins, a figure Werner expects to exceed 50% — possibly 75% — within a year as adoption shifts from speculative crypto assets to everyday financial flows. The discussion closes on regulation and the future of financial services. Werner is strongly in favor of pending U.S. stablecoin legislation, particularly provisions that would allow issuers to pass yield to users — arguing competition with banks ultimately benefits consumers. Looking ahead, his conviction is clear: all financial services will migrate on-chain. His hot takes? He's 90% Bitcoin maximalist, believes everything will eventually run on blockchain rails, and expects AI — still under-adopted today — to unleash massive productivity gains. His sci-fi pick to wrap it all up: Foundation by Isaac Asimov — a fitting nod to long-range technological inevitability.

The London Stadium has a new talisman. In a €29 million "fireworks display" of a deal, West Ham United have secured Argentine forward Valentín “Taty” Castellanos from Lazio. In this episode, we break down why Nuno Espírito Santo identified the former MLS Golden Boot winner as the "ultimate offensive puzzle piece" for the Hammers' survival bid.From his technical grace and "chess grandmaster" vision to his legendary four-goal haul against Real Madrid, Taty isn't just a striker—he's a full-spectrum attacking catalyst. We analyze how his "mischievous playmaker" style will link up with Jarrod Bowen and fellow new arrival Pablo Felipe to ignite the Claret and Blue attack.

This week Sam, Santi B and Andrés cast their eyes over the first three rounds of league action in the 2026 Torneo Apertura, which have seen consistency (if nothing else) from Independiente, early group leads for Lanús and Independiente Rivadavia, and Juan Fernando Quintero playing like it's 2015 again for River Plate.
It's not often that it happens, Slushies, but it's always a treat when it does. We're switching to fiction for the day with “Colfax,” a flash story from Patricia Q. Bidar, author of the short fiction collection Pardon Me for Moonwalking. Spoiler alert: read the story first in the show notes or listen to the story in full at 41:50 before our discussion ruins it for you. Something about the story's theme and concision reminds Sam of Louise Glück's prose poems in her late collection, A Faithful and Virtuous Night. Sam also appreciates how the story allows a female character the same kind of recklessness found in Denis Johnson's Jesus' Son. Jason shares his surprising childhood connection to Vacaville, CA, one of the story's locales. And in his role as bad cop, Jason raises a question about uncanny children. Tune in to find out what he means by that. While we're all bracing for winter storms, we're happy to dwell, for a moment, in California Central Valley's humid and fertile atmosphere. As always, thanks for listening! At the table: Tobi Kassim, Samantha Neugebauer, Jason Schneiderman, Kathleen Volk Miller, Lisa Zerkle, and Lillie Volpe (sound engineer) Bio: Patricia Q. Bidar is a western writer and Port of Los Angeles native. Her novelette, Wild Plums (ELJ Editions), was published in 2024 and collection of flash fiction, Pardon Me for Moonwalking (Unsolicited Press), in 2025. Patricia's work has appeared in Waxwing, Wigleaf, SmokeLong Quarterly, The Pinch, and Another Chicago Magazine; in the Wigleaf Top 50, and in many anthologies including Flash Fiction America (W.W.

Within a few minutes, fresh energy blooms and fizzes within her; the sensation is of tumbling backward into space. Julian: a drug dealer so giant and peevish the floor mats on the driver's side are bunched and ruined. Underneath his criminal veneer, Julian is just a mundane mammal who's driven Cristina, an animal woman, to flight. Half an hour later, she's reached Colfax. In this heat, this fecund place. The car has mashed against the gas station's cashier hut. Years ago, when Cristina was growing up here, this was a drive-in theatre, with a massive image of a vaquero on a rearing steed. Sweltering nights, Cristina would watch movies with her lonely mother, car windows open wide, clasped in the smell of tomatoes, melons, and insecticide. Rain begins to pepper the hood. Cristina rises into vegetal air. She doesn't recall opening the door. The window to the hut is dirty and rain spattered. She peers between cupped hands at the empty stool inside, the bank of cigarette packs. Lightning cracks; after a few seconds, thunder rumbles. Cristina presses her hand over her heart. Is she alarmed? Are the pills goosing her pulse? But she feels calm. The sky is a tight lid. It was a mistake, stealing Julian's car. Julian, who took her in. Identified and claimed her after Cristina finished her time and was so adrift and alone. Cristina was working as a server in a West Sacramento brewery. Her last customer on a slow Tuesday night was a black-haired guy in a cowboy hat. Stiff-looking jeans and a pearl-buttoned shirt. A face that seemed not to match the hair. “Lady,” he said so low she had to incline her head. “You think no one sees you. I do. I do.” She joined Julian that very night on one of his quests. He was what her mother would have called a peeping tom. He wanted her to wear nylon hose, like he did. Why not? No one was getting hurt. It was simply watching. Watching women. Women when they were themselves and unaware they were being observed. In a word: seen. Julian was no Rawhead, no Slenderman. Not one of those serial killers roving California freeways in the nineteen-seventies, the ones Cristina's mother had been obsessed with. Now she imagines someone peering in through the car door and seeing her, Cristina, slumped behind the wheel. People idealize farmland, farm girls as wholesome. Green, yellow, and blue. The sky is cobalt now. Fifty feet away is a bus shelter, sagging and white. A small form is hunched inside. Lightning again, and then, immediately following, that bass sky-rumble. Cristina runs. Inside, a child of about nine swings its legs. Windbreaker, hood up. "Hello there?" Cristina ventures. "I'm studying these ants," the kid returns. A girl. "Would you like a churro?" Cristina cannot see the girl's face but is struck by the way she sits. A bell buried deep inside of her tolls. "Is this the bus stop for town?" Cristina asks. The churros smell nice; hot grease and cinnamon. Cristina used to make them for her little sisters. She thought she might become a baker one day. At least, when anyone asked, this was what she had answered. She should be hungry. "That's my car, in case you were wondering,” Cristina says. Nothing. She crouches down beside the girl. “Dead at the service station. Lucky, I guess.” The child considers this. "Well, not really." She speaks patiently, the way Cristina used to speak to adults at her age. As if they were her younger sisters or the kids in the slow class at school, or the witless ladies in the school office. “On second thought, I'll take one of those churros." Cristina says. But the girl has returned to her task: surveilling a line of ants. Cristina's mind unspools the types. Velvet ants. Pharaoh ants. Argentine ants. Thief ants. The odorous house ants, and then — wasn't there a sugar ant? The smell of water-heavy crops and soil and chemical fertilizer thickens the air. All of the choices Cristina has made in life have led her to this place. "There's nothing left," she says aloud. "It depends on how you see it," the girl returns, pushing her eyeglasses up into place with a forefinger. Cristina squints at the obscured face. Then the girl daintily lifts and lowers her hood. And bares the side of her left pinky finger. The small oval scar is exactly like Cristina's. “Did your mother tell you that people with six fingers and toes are giants sired by angels and human women? Something apart from God,” Cristina said. Those surgeries when she was four. “She says I'm a monkey.” Cristina remembers a long-ago birthday party, her ninth, attended by zero children. She feels the sky drawing her up, then. At the same time, the inverted bowl of sky pushes down. It is like that optical illusion where you can't tell if the black horse is headed toward you or walking away. Hail pounds the roof of the shelter. The discs of ice flash under the bright lights of the gas pump island. The girl returns to dropping pinches of dough onto the ants. Obeying their internal imperative: a perpetuation of their kind. Cristina sees Julian preparing for bed. Applying his eye cream. Clapping twice to extinguish the bedside light. He refers to himself as cerebral. But what is so deep about dealing painkillers during the afternoon shift at the One Stop Spy Shop in Vacaville? Life with Julian had amounted to a slow and downhill slide, and that was for sure. “We live our lives with our ancestors as witness,” the girl says at last. Her words hang in the air like wet almond blossoms. Cristina has to ask. “Am I that? Am I alive?” And a roar consumes the sky. A silver bus is careening toward them from behind blue oaks. And a metal monster slips from the asphalt. Rolls end over end. Sky-blotting. Deafening. Images rise and blend and collapse. The blanched face of the driver. The silhouettes of passengers. One of whom is standing. Julian? Something blooms and expands in Cristina's head. But there is no bus. No careening crash. Only a fecund silence. And the girl tears a piece of the churro, nudging Cristina's lips with the sugar and cinnamon confection. It is absolutely delectable and somehow still warm. Like the corner of a golden kitchen in bygone evenings. A humming mother, changing her dressings. An iron stove and a gray kitten, satisfied and warm. Cristina really, finally, is free. She has made it back to the beginning. Apart from time, the girl and Cristina stand in the little windbreak like gingerbread children or figures in a Frida Kahlo painting. The girl takes her hand. And then it is she and Cristina and the animal female chain, extending into and past the vanishing point: Girl Girl Girl Girl Girl Girl Girl.
Some of the world's most valuable vineyard lessons are rooted in vines that predate modern viticulture. In this conversation, we are joined by Dr. Laura Catena to explore Argentina's remarkable legacy of old, ungrafted vines and what they reveal about vine genetics, site expression, and long-term resilience. Drawing on her experience, Dr. Catena explains why phylloxera never devastated many Argentine vineyards and how this unique history allowed ancient vine material to survive. The discussion dives into massale selection from old vines, highlighting why genetic diversity matters — especially as vineyard owners contend with climate stress, disease pressure, and the limits of clonal uniformity. We also examine the role of Argentina's high-altitude growing regions and how elevation influences vine physiology, flavor development, and vineyard health. These extreme sites have become a living laboratory for research, helping match plant material to specific conditions and improving long-term vineyard performance. Dr. Catena shares information from the Catena Institute of Wine's ongoing research and how data-driven approaches can elevate both vineyard decisions and wine quality. For growers managing heritage blocks or considering massale selection in new plantings, this episode offers a compelling blend of history, science, and practical guidance — showing how preserving the past can be a powerful strategy for building the vineyards of the future. In this episode, you will hear: Why Argentina has some of the world's oldest ungrafted vineyards The role of massale selection in preserving genetic diversity How old vines contribute to resilience and site expression The impact of altitude and climate on vine health and quality Applying research-driven insights to modern vineyard management Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!

La rumeur selon laquelle Hitler ne se serait pas suicidé en avril 1945, mais aurait fui vers l'Argentine, vécu caché en Patagonie dans une réplique du Berghof, puis serait mort dans les années 1970 après avoir eu deux filles, est l'une des plus célèbres fake news de l'histoire moderne. Ce qui la rend fascinante, ce n'est pas seulement son contenu : c'est la façon dont elle est née, puis s'est installée durablement.Ce que raconte exactement la rumeurLe récit suit généralement la même trame. À la fin de la guerre, Hitler n'est pas mort dans son bunker : un sosie aurait été utilisé, un corps substitué, les preuves truquées. Hitler aurait quitté Berlin via un réseau clandestin, parfois décrit comme une exfiltration organisée par des SS. Il aurait ensuite rejoint l'Espagne ou l'Italie, embarqué à bord d'un sous-marin, puis débarqué en Argentine. Là, dans le Sud du pays, au cœur de la Patagonie, il aurait vécu sous protection, dans une propriété isolée ressemblant à son chalet bavarois : le Berghof. Il y aurait terminé sa vie discrètement, entouré d'anciens nazis, jusqu'à sa mort supposée dans les années 1970.Comment la rumeur est néeTout commence en 1945 avec un problème majeur : le chaos informationnel.Quand Hitler se suicide le 30 avril 1945, son corps est brûlé partiellement. Les Soviétiques récupèrent des restes, mais ne communiquent pas clairement. Pire : la propagande soviétique entretient un doute. Staline laisse entendre, à plusieurs reprises, qu'Hitler aurait pu s'enfuir. Ce flou initial est le premier carburant du mythe.Dans le même temps, en Occident, la presse et l'opinion publique sont hantées par une angoisse : comment croire qu'un homme responsable d'un tel désastre ait pu “simplement” se suicider ? Cette frustration morale ouvre la voie au fantasme : une fuite paraît presque plus cohérente qu'une fin minable.Pourquoi elle a exploséDeux éléments réels renforcent ensuite cette fiction.1. Des nazis ont vraiment fui vers l'Amérique du Sud. Eichmann, Mengele et d'autres. Donc le public se dit : “si eux y sont arrivés, Hitler aussi.”2. Des services de renseignement ont reçu des signalements. Des gens affirmaient l'avoir vu en Espagne, en Colombie, au Chili… Les autorités ont parfois collecté ces informations. Mais dans l'esprit complotiste, le fait que des agences aient “un dossier” devient la preuve qu'elles “savent”.Comment elle s'est transformée en légendeDans les décennies suivantes, le récit se romantise. Des auteurs sensationnalistes ajoutent des détails : des villas, des photos floues, des cartes, des “témoins” tardifs. Et la Patagonie devient le décor idéal : vaste, sauvage, mystérieuse.Aujourd'hui, cette rumeur survit parce qu'elle suit une mécanique puissante : plus l'histoire est invérifiable, plus elle paraît profonde. C'est un récit qui donne l'impression qu'on détient “la vérité cachée”… alors qu'on assiste surtout à la construction progressive d'un mythe. Hébergé par Acast.
