Ines Prodöhl's Globalizing the Soybean: Fat, Feed, and Sometimes Food, c. 1900-1950 (Routledge, 2023) is a history of how, why, and where the soybean became a critical ingredient in industry and agriculture in the first half of the twentieth century. Focusing on Japanese-dominated Manchuria, Germany, and the United States, Prodöhl shows that the soybean was a serendipitous solution to numerous and varied crises from the beginning of the century into the post-WWII decades. This story of imperialism, globalization, and technology begins in northeast China, the world's soy cultivation center until the 1940s. It takes us to Germany, the number one importer of soybeans in the interwar period, and illuminates the various ways in which soy was integrated into the economy especially after the end of WWI as both an invaluable oilseed for industry and a source of protein-rich fodder for agriculture. Finally, Prodöhl explores how the United States first adopted the soybean mostly as a solution to overtaxed soils. Mixing economic, ecological, political, and technological/scientific history with a keen sense of the materiality of soy as a global product, Globalizing the Soybean is an accessible and enlightening book that will appeal to multiple audiences. This book is available open access here. This episode was recorded in person in the studios of Media City Bergen with technical assistance from Frode Ims.

Skilager und Sportferien gehörten lange zur Schweiz wie Fondue und Ovomaltine, noch heute ist das Skifahren für viele Kulturgut. Über die Faszination und die Kehrseiten eines Sports, der die Schweiz geprägt hat. Noch immer verbringen in der Schweiz viele Kinder während der Schulzeit mindestens eine Woche in den Bergen, rund 35 Prozent der Schweizer Bevölkerung fahren regelmässig Ski. Und wenn Ausnahmetalente wie Marco Odermatt oder Lara Gut die Piste runterbrettern, fiebert die Nation mit. Wie wurde Skifahren zum Kulturgut? Und weshalb werden Rennfahrerinnen und Rennfahrer immer schneller: Liegt es am Material oder am Können? Zu Gast sind die Skilegende Bernhard Russi, der auch als Architekt von Rennstrecken die Skiwelt über Jahrzehnte geprägt hat, und die Schriftstellerin Antje Rávik Strubel, die einst Skilehrerin werden wollte und Langlauf als Übung des Denkens versteht. Olivia Röllin fragt, worin der Reiz des Tempos besteht, wie Hightech-Sport zur Idee der unberührten Natur passt und ob Hundertstelsekunden im Abfahrtsrennen punkto Können wirklich einen Unterschied machen.

Mei 2024. Roda JC en FC Groningen verwikkeld in een hevige promotiestrijd. Op speeldag 38 spelen de twee tegen elkaar in de Euroborg, maar een week daarvoor kan het al beslist worden. Roda wint thuis met 2-0 van Cambuur, terwijl Groningen op bezoek bij Telstar 1-0 achterstaat. Met die stand is Roda direct gepromoveerd naar de Eredivisie. Supporters rennen het veld op, maar de spelers blijven rustig, wetende dat de wedstrijd in Velsen-Zuid nog bezig is. Dan komt de gelijkmaker: Thom van Bergen kopt raak, 1-1. Groningen wordt gek, in Limburg slaat men de handen voor de ogen. Tot er ineens iets klinkt uit de speakers van het Parkstad Limburg Stadion. Stadionspeaker Wim Frijns kondigt de 2-1 aan van Telstar. Het veld wordt opnieuw bestormd door feestende supporters en spelers. Maar die 2-1 is nooit gevallen, de wedstrijd eindigt gewoon in 1-1. Totale chaos. Frijns pakt andermaal de microfoon: "Ik moet helaas mededelen dat het niet de 2-1 is geworden." Supporters vallen ter aarde, spelers worden van de schouders gehaald. Twee keer denken dat je er bent, twee keer van een koude kermis thuiskomen. En als je denkt dat Roda niet dieper kon zinken, vraag dan vooral niet wat er in de weken hierna gebeurde.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Wirklichkeit träumt sie von einem Haus in den Bergen. In der Nacht wird sie dann aber im Traum zum Filzfuchs. Beides bietet doch die beste Grundlage, um es sich mal komplett auszumalen, das Leben im Grünen. Und die eigene rasante Fahrt im offenen Jeep bringt sie schnell zurück, die Erinnerung an diese eine Person, die rasant gefahren ist und auf ihre Art für einen unvergesslichen Tag gesorgt hat. Er hingegen versucht zu lesen und holt sich eine Erinnerung von damals zurück: russische Hausfrauenkrimis von Darja Donzowa.

Michael Beer ist Vizedirektor des Bundesamtes für Lebensmittelsicherheit und Veterinärwesen BLV und zuständig für Pflanzenschutzmittel. Seit gut einem Monat gilt das «vereinfachte» Zulassungsverfahren. Hilft es, die Gesuche schneller zu bearbeiten? Welche Risiken bleiben bei der Zulassung? Seit 2021 ist das BLV zuständig für die Zulassung von Pflanzenschutzmitteln, nicht mehr das Bundesamt für Landwirtschaft. Die Zulassungen stehen von verschiedenen Seiten unter Druck: Landwirtschaftskreise möchten neue Pflanzenschutzmittel, um Lebensmittel zu produzieren, auch, da verschiedene aus dem Verkauf zurückgezogen wurden. Umweltverbände sorgen sich um die Verunreinigungen von Wasser oder Böden. Auch Gesundheitsrisiken für den Menschen müssen berücksichtigt werden. Über 500 Gesuche warten auf eine Prüfung, seit letztem Dezember gilt ein sogenanntes vereinfachtes Zulassungsverfahren. Was hat sich damit verändert? Werden nun Gesuche schneller bewilligt? Wie nimmt das BLV die Kritik am Zulassungsverfahren auf? Was würden die neuen Verträge mit der EU verändern? Der Lebensmittelingenieur und Vizedirektor des Bundesamtes für Lebensmittelsicherheit und Veterinärwesen ist zuständig für die Zulassung von Pflanzenschutzmitteln. Für ihn gibt es keine risikofreie Anwendung von Pflanzenschutzmittel. Man könne nicht ausschliessen, dass auch bei heute zugelassenen Pflanzenschutzmitteln künftig Risiken für Natur und Mensch auftreten könnten. Michael Beer ist zu Gast im Tagesgespräch von Karoline Arn.

Bergen skulle ankomme hvert øyeblikk.En: The train from Bergen was supposed to arrive any moment.No: Det var midt på vinteren, og kulden bet i skinnene utenfor, hvor et tynt lag av snø dekket bakken.En: It was the middle of winter, and the cold bit at the tracks outside, where a thin layer of snow covered the ground.No: Innsiden av stasjonen var varm, og lyden av kaffemaskiner fra kioskene fylte luften med en trøstende aroma.En: Inside the station was warm, and the sound of coffee machines from the kiosks filled the air with a comforting aroma.No: Lars holdt en liten gave i hånden.En: Lars held a small gift in his hand.No: En rød eske med en liten bryllupsfigur inni—en liten gest til Ingrid.En: A red box with a little wedding figurine inside—a small gesture for Ingrid.No: Det var

Wenn die Gletscher schmelzen – Gletscherforscher Tobias Sauter ist Teil einer der umfangreichsten Forschungsexpeditionen Europas und untersucht, wie schnell sich Gletscher verändern. Welche Folgen haben schmelzende Gletscher für das Klima und für uns?

Indiska vandrare visade forskare en hemlig energigivande växt. Det blev starten på ett unikt samarbete som ledde till Nagoyaprotokollet för rättvis vinstdelning. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Programmet sändes första gången 20251111.Allt började med att forskaren Palpu Pushpangandan, tidigare chefen för den botaniska trädgården och forskningsinstitutet TBGRI i Thiruvananthapuram i delstaten Kerala i Indien, lyckades komma överens med representanter från ursprungsbefolkningen Kani-folket. De avslöjade sin hemlighet och fick i gengäld löfte om framtida inkomster.Deras uppgörelse blev som en förebild för det som senare kom att kallas Nagoya-protokollet, som handlar om rättvis fördelning av inkomster från kunskaper om bland annat medicinalväxter.Hasrat Arjjummend, som forskat kring effekterna av Nagoya-protokollet, menar att intäkterna sällan kommer enskilda individer till del. Laksmikutty Amma från Kani-folket menar dessutom att det känns som att ett brott har begåtts mot skogen.I Sydafrika har man ändå lyckats med ett avtal med en hel bransch utifrån Nagoya-protokollet. Där har Rooibos-industrin tecknat avtal med ursprungsbefolkningar om att de ska få procentuell ersättning av omsättningen.I Sydafrika jobbar Stephanie Cawood, som professor i Afrikanska studier vid University Free State i Bloemfontein. Hon har på regeringens uppdrag tillsammans med ursprungsbefolkningar startat en databas för att kartlägga kunskap, som senare ska kunna leda till patent. Databasen heter NIKMAS, som är en förkortning av National Indigenous Knowledges Management Systems.Reporter Annika ÖstmanAnnika.Ostman@sverigesradio.seProducent Lars BroströmLars.Brostrom@sverigesradio. se

RUNES, TAVERN MESSAGES, AND HIDDEN HISTORIES Colleague Eleanor Barraclough. John Batchelorinterviews Eleanor Barraclough about her book, Embers of the Hands: Hidden Histories of the Viking Age. They discuss a specific runic inscription from roughly 1200 AD found on a piece of wood in a tavern in Bergen, Norway. The message is from a woman named Gyda telling her husband to come home, to which he seemingly carved a nonsensical, drunken response. Barraclough explains her methodology of using such everyday objects—"embers of the hands"—to reveal the personal lives of individuals often lost in the grand scope of history. The segment also establishes the 793 AD raid on Lindisfarne as the traditional, shocking start of the Viking Age. NUMBER 1

Florentine Koppenborg's Japan's Nuclear Disaster and the Politics of Safety Governance (Cornell UP, 2023) begins with the understated observation that the triple disaster of March 2011 “exposed severe deficiencies in Japan's nuclear safety governance.” This is the starting point for the rather curious story of the regulatory reforms taken up in the wake of the Fukushima disaster and how they created a new system with a strong independent nuclear safety regulator that has refused to back down even as the political tides have changed, and what this has meant for energy policy in Japan in the past dozen years. Koppenborg's history of nuclear power regulation in Japan also seriously considers the implications of this dramatic break for regimes in other countries. This case study provides a complex and thought-provoking contribution to discussions of the role of nuclear power and independent regulation in global efforts to decarbonize our energy supply.

Da haben wir es wohl alle falsch gemacht. Oder richtig? Oder eh überall unterschiedlich? Kommt mehr als Käse in ein Pfännchen? – Und wo wir schon beim Essen sind: Die „picky-Eaterin“ von den beiden ist das gar nicht absichtlich. Und hat einen Namen, quasi eine Diagnose, in der sie sich wiederfindet. Außerdem wird Silvester Revue passieren gelassen. Vom Görli über das Ferienhaus in den Bergen und Raclette bis zur ZDF-Show und der Frage, wann und wie man für Letzteres aufgebaut werden kann. Das Ferienhaus in den Bergen war von innen übrigens ein Chalet mit Tücken. Außen aber „hui“, mit einer Sicht, die sich gewaschen hat.

Today, we'll talk about Bergen, Norway. The FAQ is:  Julie asked: How can I pack for several seasons in the same small pack? Answer: It's going to be a challenge if you are moving to different zones in your trip. When I was in South Africa in June, the winter weather was a challenge, as there was no heat in the homes where I stayed. I used hot water bottles in bed at night. I also wore all of my clothes. A week later, I was in Greece and gave away the warm clothes to a new friend from England. She was a South Korean, grateful. You can experiment with what you need right away and then buy additional items later on, as I did.  Also, consider shipping a package with your warmer clothes to your destination.  If you need more professional clothing, you can check your bag on the plane, but I rarely do so because of the cost and the time you have to wait at the airport. 60-second confidence challenge Your challenge today Confidence Challenge in Bergen: The biggest challenge may be navigating Bergen's steep hills and unpredictable weather. Rain is part of daily life here, so it's easy to lose motivation when the skies open up. The confidence builder? Embrace flexibility. Bring a lightweight rain poncho, waterproof shoes, and plan indoor stops between attractions. Locals say, "There's no bad weather, only bad clothing." You'll find your rhythm — rain or shine.   If you like today's Confidence Challenge, my book series delves deeper into packing and traveling very light, while moving through the 5 steps to solo travel, from easy to more challenging, with foreign language communication tips. . You can find the series at the link in the description.  See Book A for addressing this concern..  Find it on the website​​ at https://www.5stepstosolotravel.com/ or on Amazon. It's a several-part series. Today's destination is Bergen, Norway If the weather is pleasant — and in Bergen, that's a big if — explore the accessible harbor paths or take a fjord sightseeing cruise. Many of the larger tour boats now have wheelchair access and restrooms. Bergen, Norway, is the gateway to the fjords. This charming coastal city blends maritime history with stunning scenery — and it's surprisingly manageable and welcoming for solo women travelers over 50, including those using wheelchairs or mobility aids.

Så hyggelig å møte deg, Sindre," sa hun muntert mens hun satte seg ned.En: "Hi! So nice to meet you, Sindre," she said cheerfully as she sat down.No: Sindre smilte stivt. "Ja, det er hyggelig å møte deg også, Kari. Jeg er veldig spent."En: Sindre smiled stiffly. "Yes, it's nice to meet you too, Kari. I'm very excited."No: Kari la merke til at han virket mer anspent enn hun hadde forventet, men hun la det til side mens de bestilte kakao og kaffe.En: Kari noticed that he seemed more tense than she had expected, but she pushed it aside as they ordered cocoa and coffee.No: Snøen falt stille utenfor vinduet, og selv om innetemperaturen var behagelig, følte Sindre seg veldig varm.En: The snow fell quietly outside the window, and although the indoor temperature was comfortable, Sindre felt very warm.No: "Så, Sindre, hva liker du å gjøre i fritiden?" spurte Kari avslappet og kikket over koppen sin.En: "So, Sindre, what do you like to do in your free time?" asked Kari relaxedly, peering over her cup.No: Sindre rettet seg opp i stolen. "Jeg er veldig dedikert til å utvikle mine ferdigheter. Jeg jobber godt i team og har stor kapasitet til å takle utfordringer under press."En: Sindre straightened up in his chair. "I am very dedicated to developing my skills. I work well in a team and have a great capacity to handle challenges under pressure."No: Kari lo igjen, men stoppet da hun så det alvorlige uttrykket i ansiktet hans. "Eh... det er flott at du er så fokusert. Men hva med hobbyer? Noe du liker å gjøre for moro skyld?"En: Kari laughed again but stopped when she saw the serious expression on his face. "Eh... it's great that you're so focused. But what about hobbies? Something you like to do for fun?"No: Sindre blunket raskt, litt forvirret. Skulle han ikke diskutere sine kvalifikasjoner? "Jo, jeg liker... å lage presentasjoner og jobbe med excel," svarte han og hørtes litt stolt ut.En: Sindre blinked quickly, a bit confused. Was he not supposed to discuss his qualifications? "Well, I like... making presentations and working with Excel," he replied, sounding a bit proud.No: Det ble stille et øyeblikk, og Kari trengte et par sekunder på å forstå hva som skjedde.En: There was a moment of silence, and Kari needed a couple of seconds to understand what was happening.No: Hun måtte være rettferdig - det virket som en stor misforståelse. "Unnskyld, men tror du dette er noe annet enn det er?"En: She had to be fair—it seemed like a big misunderstanding. "Sorry, but do you think this is something other than what it is?"No: Sindre rødmet dypt. "Er dette ikke et jobbintervju?" spurte han nølende.En: Sindre blushed deeply. "Is this not a job interview?" he asked hesitantly.No: Kari klappet ham vennlig på hånden og smilte beroligende.En: Kari patted his hand kindly and smiled reassuringly.No: "Nei, dette er vår første date! Men jeg setter pris på all informasjon om dine kvaliteter, faktisk."En: "No, this is our first date! But I do appreciate all the information about your qualities, actually."No: Den plutselige realiseringen fikk Sindre til å le av lettelse. "Oi, jeg forstår nå. Jeg er virkelig lei for det. Jeg var så nervøs." Han strakte seg over bordet og sa oppriktig, "La oss begynne på nytt?"En: The sudden realization made Sindre laugh with relief. "Oh, I get it now. I'm really sorry about that. I was so nervous." He reached across the table and said sincerely, "Shall we start over?"No: Stemningen lettet betraktelig da de begge lo av det lille dramaet.En: The atmosphere lightened considerably as they both laughed at the little drama.No: Samtalen fløt naturlig, og begge oppdaget felles interesser; teater, fjellturer og en felles forkjærlighet for pepperkaker.En: The conversation flowed naturally, and they both discovered shared interests: theater, mountain hikes, and a mutual fondness for gingerbread cookies.No: Da de sa farvel ved døra, med vinden som bøyde trærne forsiktig, bestemte de seg for å møtes igjen.En: As they said goodbye at the door, with the wind gently bending the trees, they decided to meet again.No: Kanskje på Bryggen, eller ta en tur på Fløyen.En: Maybe at Bryggen, or take a trip to Fløyen.No: Varmen fra kaféen hadde fulgt dem ut i kulden.En: The warmth from the café had followed them out into the cold.No: Sindre lærte å finne humor i kaoset, mens Kari innså kraften i å møte små pinlige øyeblikk med et smil.En: Sindre learned to find humor in chaos, while Kari realized the power of facing small embarrassing moments with a smile.No: Med en ny dato på kalenderen, gikk de hver sin vei, men begge med et lett hjerte.En: With a new date on the calendar, they went their separate ways but both with a light heart.No: Det var, tross alt, juletid - en tid for å skape varme forbindelser.En: After all, it was Christmas time—a time to create warm connections.
