Welcome to Episode 1568, Bridging the Communication Gap with New Technology in the Fine Wine Supply Chain with Nick Palmer moderated by Pietro Russo This is the wine2wine Business Forum 2022 Series. The sessions are recorded and uploaded on Italian Wine Podcast. wine2wine Business Forum is an international wine business forum, held annually in Verona Italy since 2014. The event is a key reference point for wine producers and a diverse variety of wine professionals eager to develop and grow their wine business worldwide. More about today's discussion With the rise in technological innovations, the industry is pivoting how wine businesses worldwide communicate wine information accurately between systems, players in the supply chain, and consumers. The fine wine market and the trade have long suffered from problems associated with product names, making manual transactions prone to errors and ultimately costing more time and money. With the Liv-ex Wine Identification Numbers (LWINs), wine businesses can integrate a universal language that allows computer systems to instantly communicate and increase efficiency in describing, buying, selling, storing, and shipping wines. Retailers, wholesalers, importers, logistics suppliers, publications, and apps can also view scores, tasting notes, and drinking dates all in one place. LWINs is setting industry-wide standards in communication between the supply chain systems, one of the most important aspects of a thriving wine business in the global digital age More about today's speaker: Nick Palmer Nick Palmer was born & raised in London.

Cadet d'une fratrie de 7 enfants, Abderrahmane grandit dans le Gers, entre Eauze et Condom où il attaquera le rugby, son adolescence déjà bien entamée ! Rapidement, sa vaillance et sa rudesse en font un élément de choix pour le Stadoceste Tarbais qui parvint l'enrôler en 1988 ! Il y passera 5 saisons avant de s'engager dans le club historique de Bordeaux : le Stade Bordelais. 2 ans plus tard, il débarque sur la rade Toulonnaise, pour une aventure courte mais intense avec le RCT. C'est en 1996 qu'il retrouve son Sud-Ouest natal, intégrant les rangs de la Section Paloise, jusqu'à la fin de sa carrière pro 6 ans plus tard. Grande gueule, déconneur, mais aussi très sérieux quand il le faut, Abder est parti avec moins de chances que beaucoup d'autres dans le jeu de la vie, mais il a admirablement su s'entourer et se construire. Curieux de nombreux domaines et véritable épicurien, c'est un drôle de personnage... J'ai passé un super moment en sa compagnie et j'espère que vous trouverez son parcours aussi inspirant que moi. Bonne écoute ! -----------------------------

The King and Queen are on a state visit to France this week, which includes stops in Paris and Bordeaux. The three-day trip would have been Charles' first royal visit abroad as King back in March – but it was delayed due to the violent protests taking place over President Emmanuel Macron's pension reforms. On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson is joined by François-Joseph Schichan, former French diplomat and political adviser to the French ambassador in the UK, to explore how our closest ally views both the King and the UK's current politics. Plus, former Labour foreign secretary Dame Margaret Beckett takes us through her assessment of the current strength of Anglo-French relations.*While we've got you... please take a few moments to let us know your thoughts on our podcasts and your listening preferences by filling in a short survey - click here.

Les liens qui unissent Étienne de La Boétie et Michel de Montaigne sont aussi forts que mystérieux : est-ce de l'amitié ? Ou même de l'amour ? Tous deux magistrats dans le Sud-ouest, ils font connaissance au Parlement de Bordeaux en 1557. Dans cet épisode d''Au Cœur de l'Histoire', l'historienne Virginie Girod retrace la rencontre entre les deux humanistes et leurs six années d'échanges empreintes d'une grande estime intellectuelle. Emporté par la maladie à seulement 32 ans, Étienne de la Boétie laisse derrière lui une pensée philosophique déjà mature, que l'on retrouve dans son 'Discours de la servitude volontaire'. En plus d'y décrire les rouages de la tyrannie, l'auteur y présente également sa vision de l'amitié, 'chose sainte' selon lui. Dans ses 'Essais', Montaigne consacre lui aussi un chapitre à ce concept, en s'inspirant de son vécu. Il fustige ce que les gens appellent d'ordinaire l'amitié, qui ne sont 'que des accointances et des familiarités'. La véritable amitié, voici ce qu'il en dit : '(les âmes) se mêlent et se confondent l'une en l'autre, d'un mélange si universel qu'elles s'effacent et ne retrouvent plus la couture qui les a jointes'. Montaigne parle évidemment du lien qui l'unissait à La Boétie, de leurs deux intellects qui se répondaient jusqu'à développer une philosophie de l'amitié, que cet épisode vous invite à découvrir.Sujets abordés : Humanisme – Philosophie – Montaigne - Renaissance 'Au cœur de l'histoire' est un podcast Europe 1 Studio. Ecriture et présentation : Virginie Girod - Production : Camille Bichler- Réalisation : Europe 1 Studio- Musique originale : Julien Tharaud - Musiques additionnelles : Julien Tharaud et Sébastien Guidis - Communication : Kelly Decroix avec Lisa Soster- Visuel : Sidonie Mangin

C dans l'air l'invité du 20 septembre avec Pierrick Geais, reporter à Paris Match, spécialiste des têtes couronnées, auteur de Prince William - La vraie vie d'un futur roi. Six mois après le rendez-vous manqué suite au mouvement contre la réforme des retraites, le Roi Charles III et son épouse Camilla arrivent à Paris ce mercredi pour une visite d'Etat de trois jours. Ils doivent séjourner dans la capitale avant de se rendre à Bordeaux. Un programme millimétré les attend. Il y aura d'abord une cérémonie à l'Arc de Triomphe puis un dîner à Versailles ce soir, un passage en Seine-Saint-Denis après un discours au Sénat que Charles III prononcera, un détour par le parvis de Notre-Dame de Paris puis une visite au muséum d'Histoire naturelle pour clore une table ronde ministérielle consacrée à la finance climat et la biodiversité. Cette visite d'État se clôturera par une journée à Bordeaux. L'objectif de cette venue est, selon un communiqué de la maison royale, de célébrer "l'histoire, les valeurs et la culture commune du Royaume-Uni et de la France". Une manière pour la Grande-Bretagne de montrer que malgré la rupture avec l'Union européenne, elle continue à entretenir des bonnes relations avec un des pays moteurs de l'Europe. Mais la France, de son côté, a aussi à y gagner. Pour Pierrick Geais, après le report de cette visite il y a six mois, "on a quelque chose à prouver aux Anglais avec la séquence du dîner à Versailles qui va être une vitrine parfaite de ce que la France fait de mieux avec : la musique, l'art de vivre, la gastronomie”. Pierrick Geais est reporter à Paris Match, spécialiste des têtes couronnées. Il est l'auteur de Prince William - La vraie vie d'un futur roi, publié aux éditions du Rocher. Il décryptera les enjeux de cette visite d'État.

Phil and Ant, our two Rugby World Cup correspondents and travellers, are hosted this week by a very jealous and lonely Andrew back in Joburh. They moan about French beer prices and the underwhelming Pacific Island performances (other than the Flying Fijians), but also delight in a Romanian romp and the general World Cup atmosphere on the ground. Music by @monstroid, 80s TV Show.

Résumé de l'épisode : La rentrée littéraire, c'est un rendez-vous annuel pour les amoureux et les amoureuses des livres. Plusieurs centaines de nouveaux romans sont publiés entre la fin du mois d'août et le mois de septembre. Cette semaine, je suis de retour chez moi, après quelques jours passés à Bordeaux. À chaque fois que je vais là-bas, j'en profite pour aller dans un endroit que j'adore : la librairie Mollat. J'étais là pour acheter un magazine littéraire : le dernier numéro du 1 des libraires. Mais évidemment, je suis ressortie avec deux ou trois romans en plus. La question qu'on se pose cette semaine, elle est justement inspirée par ce fameux magazine : Pourquoi lisons-nous (02:12) ? D'abord, on s'intéresse à ce qui se passe dans notre cerveau quand on lit (03:08). Qu'est-ce qui se produit en nous quand une histoire nous captive ? C'est un beau sujet philosophique. Le philosophe Peter Szendy s'y est intéressé dans son essai, "Pouvoirs de la lecture" (07:57). Ensuite, on évoque la rentrée littéraire. Ce rendez-vous annuel raconte quelque chose sur nos habitudes de lectures et sur la manière dont elles évoluent (10:46). Et pour finir, je vous dis quelques mots sur ces deux ou trois livres que j'ai rapportés dans mes valises (17:24). Ça vous donnera peut-être des idées de lectures pour les semaines à venir. Bonne écoute !

C dans l'air l'invitée du 15 septembre avec le Dr. Faiza Bossy, médecin généraliste. Les professionnels de santé sont en alerte après "dix cas cliniquement évocateurs de botulisme alimentaire" en France, en lien avec la consommation de conserves artisanales de sardines dans un restaurant bordelais "Potentiellement 25 personnes auraient consommé ces bocaux", indique Thierry Touzet directeur adjoint de la direction départementale de protection des populations (DDPP) de la Gironde. Ces conserves artisanales de sardines, fabriquées par l'établissement bordelais le Tchin Tchin Wine bar, sont pointées du doigt après un total de douze cas évocateurs de botulisme alimentaire dont un vient de conduire au décès d'une patiente de 32 ans en Île-de-France. A ce stade, dix cas sont recensés en France et deux à l'étranger – en Espagne et en Allemagne – mais qui relèvent du foyer d'intoxication bordelais. Le ministère de la Santé a émis une alerte urgente à l'adresse de professionnels de santé, ce mardi, pour les informer de "dix cas cliniquement évocateurs de botulisme alimentaire" et avertissant que "la survenue d'autres cas, dans les prochains jours, en lien avec cet établissement n'est pas exclue". Les cas de botulisme sont très rares, avec 15 à 20 cas par an en France, mais selon la quantité de toxines ingérée et l'état de santé des malades, les pronostics vitaux peuvent être engagés. L'administration d'un antidote, le plus tôt possible après l'apparition des symptômes "peut permettre de raccourcir le temps d'hospitalisation", précise le ministère de la Santé dans sa communication aux soignants. En France, la réserve d'antitoxiniques est sous le contrôle de l'Armée car un risque terroriste lui est associé. Un stock a été prépositionné à Bordeaux, après cette intoxication collective. Le Dr. Faiza Bossy reviendra sur cette d'affaire et cette course contre la montre pour retrouver d'autres cas potentiels…

Our Summer of Chaos winds down with an 80s fantasy classic, Legend!  To pair, we enjoy some delicious white Bordeaux.

Nach unserem riesigen Starfield-Talk der letzten Woche jagt auch in Ausgabe 48 des PC Games Podcast ein Highlight das nächste. Zunächst einmal bleiben wir im Kosmos von Microsoft, die derzeit mit tollen Titeln auf PC und Xbox ordentlich Boden auf Sonys Playstation gut machen. Bereits am 10. Oktober erscheint mit Forza Motorsport ein sehnlichst erwarteter Racer von Entwicklerstudio Turn 10 Studio. Unsere beiden Rennspiel-Experten Maci und Michi konnten in einer Preview-Version bereits einige Runden in flotten Sportwagen drehen und erzählen ausführlich von ihren Eindrücken. Ein kleiner Spoiler vorweg: Die Vorfreude ist bei beiden durch das Anspielen nicht gesunken. Auch ein paar Vergleiche mit dem direkten Racing-Konkurrenten Gran Turismo 7 müssen natürlich sein. Im Anschluss kommen die Hobby-Assassinen Matthias und Stefan vorbei. Noch vor Forza Motorsport erscheint nämlich Assassin's Creed: Mirage. Da trifft es sich ganz gut, dass Matthias vor kurzem zu Gast bei Ubisoft in Bordeaux war und aus erster Hand von seinem Anspiel-Event des Adventures erzählen kann. Wie funktioniert der Schritt zurück zu den Wurzeln? Spielen Parkour - und Stealth-Elemente wirklich wieder eine größere Rolle? Und wie ist unsere allgemeine Einschätzung kurz vor dem Release? Diese Fragen beantworten wir ausführlich in unserem zweiten Podcast-Thema. Zu guter Letzt schaut noch Alwin von den Rocket Beans vorbei und plaudert mit Host Maci und Buffed-Redakteur Matthias Brückle über die neue Netflix-Serie One Piece. Bei ihrer Fan-Diskussion haben die Drei den zeitlichen Podcast-Rahmen komplett gesprengt und daher gibt's in dieser Folge erstmal einen circa halbstündigen Teaser des Gesprächs. Den restlichen Talk könnt ihr in den nächsten Tagen als Extra-Ausgabe des PCG-Podcast hören. Wir hoffen sehr, dass ihr euch über die aktuelle Folge freut und viel Spaß habt.

Pour inaugurer la saison 7 du podcast, j'ai eu la grande chance de dégotter une interview avec l'un des architectes les plus fascinants de notre époque…mais aussi l'un des plus insaisissable ! Guidé par une philosophie du « faire » et non du « faire savoir », fuyant presse, interviews… Youssef Tohmé est un architecte et urbaniste qui n'a pas terminé de nous surprendre et de nous questionner ! Comment habiter le monde ? Comment penser des lieux de qualité pour la vie ? Franco-Libanais, Youssef travaille aujourd'hui dans plusieurs pays (France, Liban, Roumanie, Grèce). On lui doit notamment l'université Saint-Joseph à Beyrouth et le nouveau quartier de Brazza à Bordeaux. Il est l'un des architectes qui m'inspire le plus aujourd'hui, par sa grande capacité à penser global, sans dogme. Avancer libre, suivre ses intuitions et surtout livrer des batailles essentielles dont il nous parle en détail dans l'épisode… voilà aussi ce qui caractérise Youssef Tohmé. « C'est à l'architecture non pas de changer le monde, mais de permettre au monde de changer » dit-il et je suis bien d'accord ! Une posture humble et saine qui fait du bien aujourd'hui, qui inspire beaucoup d'architectes et que j'avais envie de vous faire découvrir dans cette interview spontanée et fleuve. Cet épisode est un témoignage sur l'importance de la liberté et du rêve ! Grâce à son travail, Youssef arrive à lever les élans, avec comme complice la douceur et son amour pour les autres, ce qui lui donne beaucoup d'avance pour imaginer les meilleurs lieux de vivre ensemble - et tout ça, sans jamais se compromettre. Très bonne écoute ! Copyright 2023 © Où est le beau ? Tous droits réservés

PODCAST - LISTEN, WATCH, AND SUBSCRIBE https://linktr.ee/TransitionDrillPodcast   In this episode of the Transition Drill podcast I delve into the life and career transitions of Gary Faust, a former law enforcement officer. The conversation begins with a nostalgic look back at his upbringing in Orange County, where he was influenced by his father's dedication to law enforcement in Santa Ana. His mother, too, had a stint in the police department, making it almost inevitable for him to be drawn to the profession. As he reminisces about his early exposure to the world of policing through ride-alongs with his father, he acknowledges the profound impact it had on his decision to pursue a career in law enforcement. Gary retired in 2014 after 27 years between the Garden Grove and Huntington Beach Police Departments.    However, the narrative takes a turn when the topic shifts to life after police work. After serving diligently and rising to the rank of Lieutenant, he began contemplating what to do after retiring from law enforcement. An unexpected passion for wine, ignited by a wine class at the Montage in Laguna Beach, set him on a new path. This newfound interest led him to Hi-Time Wine Cellars in Costa Mesa, where he transitioned from being a police officer to becoming a knowledgeable wine salesperson and eventually a French wine buyer. The transition wasn't without its challenges, as the wine industry initially seemed skeptical about what a former cop could bring to the table. However, with persistence and passion, he carved a niche for himself.   The podcast underscores the importance of adaptability and the courage to pursue new interests, even after a fulfilling career in a demanding field like law enforcement. It serves as an inspiration for those contemplating leaving law enforcement for a new career and emphasizes that it's never too late to chase a new dream or passion. The story is a testament to the endless possibilities that await after hanging up the badge and the importance of finding a new purpose post-retirement.   CONNECT WITH GARY: https://www.instagram.com/gary.faust/ https://www.hitimewine.net/

Ladies and Gents, it's here. The event we've been waiting for. The Rugby World Cup in France. Rugby Reddit Internet Scholars (we're talkin' 21st century academia baby) are dubbing this one the year of the UNDERDOGS. Teams that have yet to sniff a RWC Final are predicted to shine and break through the boring traditional mold. Who will be barking and groveling for treats (remember, dog theme) come the knock out rounds in October? For those that don't know (or choose to conveniently forget, I'm looking at you European Rugby fans), only 4 total teams have hoisted the trophy over the years, with 7 wins going to Southern Hemisphere power houses (South Africa 3x (and reigning champs), New Zealand 3x, and Australia 2x) and a measly 1 win going to England in 2003. France has battled and been ridiculously close (losing in 3 finals), and Ireland .... well Ireland have a QF exit hump bigger than Quasimodo's C3-C4 vertebrae. But who are the true UnderDogs of the tourney? Argentina - the spicy South Americans have the talent, and a massive bone to chew on for the next 8 weeks. They've been battling Southern Hemisphere teams for the last four years and the intense competition has paid off. The Pumas export the majority of their professional players to France anyways, so it will almost feel like a home tournament ... Right? Wales - the Rugby Reddit Internet Scholars are pissed that the competition pools are picked 2.5 years in advance. Surely the overlords at World Rugby (lookin at you Billy B) knew that the world rankings would shift as the tournament approached, yet here we are. Wales made the 2019 semi-final back in Japan, but their form going into this years tourney is down. No one expects much from a country that punches well above its population weight in Rugby Union, but perhaps now is the time to back a team with a (relatively) clear path to another semi-final appearance. Fiji - the flying coconuts seem to be the darling of the tournament. Losing their starting flyhalf Caleb Muntz a mere days before the tourney is set to start is certainly a gut punch, but the men in White & Black can turn a game on its head ... in seconds. Their time as the Fijian Drua in Super Rugby Pacific has shown that if World Rugby invests in Pacific Island Countries, the payoff is mighty. A competitive Fiji has always put up some crazy highlight reel team tries, but this year they're sniffing everyone's butthole they cross (again, we're hammering home the dog theme). Australia - Eddie Jones may be the biggest shit talking dickhead of a coach that test rugby has ever and will ever see. But it's all forgiven if he can neuter their losing ways (0-5 in the tournament buildup), pin their ears back and become junk yard dogs again. They are by far the youngest team in the tournament (perhaps by design ... Eddie's got a rock solid contract from Rugby Australia and would rather compete with young talent ... win or lose). Can the lifeless Wallabies find their form, or will they piss on the porch with the puppies? If you want to place a relatively safe future bet on teams that could (and should) win it all, ... go with South Africa, France, New Zealand or Ireland. But if you want to play with the UnderDogs (and reap the rewards with huge odds), go with Argentina, Wales, Fiji or Australia. Until then, Rugby PickEm will be giving you a boots on the ground perspective from France. We'll take in the sights, sounds & smells of this rugby rich country as we travel down the west coast for the opening weekend in Bordeaux. Until then, remember .... Hungry Dogs Run FASTER! PICKEM!

It's officially World Cup week so the Rugby Union Daily is back! To kick things off, Chris jumps on the Eurostar to Paris to meet All Blacks great Andrew Mehrtens. They look ahead to a bumper opening weekend across Paris, Marseille and Bordeaux and discuss their pre-tournament favourites given the lopsided draw. Mehrts also talks about that chastening defeat for New Zealand at Twickenham and which northern hemisphere teams have caught his eye having spent the year living in France. Chris also goes inside the Ireland camp to catch up with Ireland's Keith Earls. He talks quarter-final heartbreak, what it means to be playing at a fourth World Cup and the difference between rooming with Paul O'Connell and Conor Murray.
