Join us for another episode of Hearts of Oak Podcast, where we're honoured to have the return of Petr Bystron, a Member of the European Parliament representing the Alternative for Germany (AfD), as our guest.  In this insightful conversation, Petr delves into the transformative currents sweeping through European politics, sparked by the AfD's significant electoral achievements.  We'll explore how the AfD's strategic alliances are influencing European policy, the media's portrayal of populist movements, and the party's dedication to tackling critical issues like immigration and national sovereignty head-on. Petr provides a unique perspective on the shifting dynamics within the EU, where traditional political alignments are giving way to a resurgence of nationalist sentiments. Expect a candid discussion that goes beyond the headlines, examining the core values and political philosophies at play in today's Europe. Tune in as we navigate these complex waters with one of the key figures shaping the continent's future. Petr Bystron is the highest-ranking foreign politician of the AfD: He has been Chairman of the AfD in the Foreign Committee of the German Bundestag since 2017. Since 2021 he has been the foreign policy spokesman for his party and its representative in the Council of Europe and the Interparliamentary Union (IPU). He was the first AfD politician to be officially received by an incumbent president (Milos Zeman) and the first European to receive the „Eagle Award “ from the conservative US Phyllis Schlafly Foundation. He was born in the CSSR, from which he fled to Germany at the age of 16, where he received political asylum. Thirty years later, he faced similar persecution in Bavaria: during the 2017 election campaign, he was subjected to an illegal house search and it was announced that he was being monitored by the Bavarian secret service. In addition to these state reprisals, he is always the target of attacks by left-wing extremists. Bystron is actively committed to supporting politically persecuted people. In 2018, with the help of Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov, he was able to free journalist Billy Six from Venezuelan detention. Petr Bystron is one of the founding members of the AfD. From 2015 to 2017 he was the state leader of the party in Bavaria. He took over the party in a crisis and led it from 3.5% of the vote to the best election result of all western federal states in the 2017 federal election with 12.7%. He founded and headed his party's National Committee for European and Foreign Policy (2013-2015). Bystron studied political science at the University of Politics and the Ludwig Maximillian University in Munich and has been working as a journalist for years. His articles on business and politics have been published in renowned daily newspapers and magazines in Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic and Switzerland. He has won several creative competitions, including an EU essay competition on the future of Europe. His current book 'MEGA – Make Europe Great Again' contains portraits of leading conservative politicians such as Viktor Orbán, Marine Le Penn and Nigel Farage. Petr is married, has two children and has lived in his constituency of Munich North for more than 30 years. He has been an entrepreneur for over thirty years. Connect with Petr and The AfD...

All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: PEGGY SLAPPY STORY 1: Ukraine native earns prestigious EAGLE award at Gwinnett Technical College Anastasiia Pliashko, a resident of Cumming, has been selected to represent Gwinnett Technical College at the EAGLE Leadership Institute in March 2024. EAGLE, which stands for Exceptional Adult Georgian in Literacy Education, honors students demonstrating superior achievement in adult education. Pliashko, originally from Ukraine, arrived in the U.S. in August 2022. She enrolled in Gwinnett Tech's HSE program to earn her GED and plans to pursue an associate degree in business management. Pliashko expressed gratitude for the recognition, stating that being named the EAGLE winner has boosted her confidence and provided motivation to achieve her goals. STORY 2: Ponies treat hospital patients by relieving stress, boosting mental health Lindsey Head, 56, initiated Pixie and Pickles Adventures, a program that utilizes ponies for therapy in hospitals. The seven well-trained ponies, visiting Lister Hospital in Stevenage, Herts., provide stress relief and mental health benefits to patients. Lindsey, a ward sister, started the venture after witnessing the positive impact on her late father in a care home. The therapy ponies, wearing diapers and maintained with high hygiene standards, engage with patients, bringing temporary relief and joy. The program has grown, securing regular visits to the hospital and sparking discussions with Great Ormond Street. The ponies' visits complement the support provided by 14 therapy dogs at Lister Hospital, contributing to patient well-being and staff morale. STORY 3: Meditating can slash stress and anxiety for nurses: study Research indicates that Transcendental Meditation (TM) significantly reduced stress, anxiety, and burnout among frontline nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study involved 104 nurses in three Florida hospitals, with the TM group showing a 62% decrease in anxiety, 57% reduction in PTSD, and 24% decrease in burnout over three months, compared to minimal changes in the control group. TM, a simple technique practiced twice daily for 20 minutes, is not a religion or philosophy and aims to calm the mind. The study highlights TM's potential to enhance nurses' well-being and retain them in practice during challenging healthcare scenarios.

We'll be right back Break 2: M.O.G. – TOM WAGES – DTL STORY 4: First map of human limb development looks like a masterpiece Scientists have provided unprecedented insights into human limb development, using spatial cell atlas technology to map the cellular landscape and processes during the early stages of limb formation. The study reveals that human fingers and toes do not grow outward but form from within a foundational bud, with "orchestrated cell death" revealing well-defined shapes after around seven weeks of development. The research, part of the Human Cell Atlas initiative, could have implications for treating muscle-related disorders or injuries and impact the diagnosis and treatment of congenital limb syndromes. The atlas provides a resource for understanding the complexity of limb development. STORY 5: Latino voters concerned about economy, feel neither party pays them close attention, poll says A UnidosUS survey of Latino voters in Georgia reveals that, with less than a year until the 2024 election, these voters are concerned about economic issues. While they align more with the Democratic Party on average, majorities believe both parties either don't care much about or are hostile toward their community. The top three issues for Latino voters are inflation (53%), jobs and the economy (47%), and healthcare (41%). The survey indicates that both parties need to engage more with Hispanic voters and address their concerns, with a focus on economic issues.

ROM : LE JOUET DE MARVEL COMICS !

Une figurine futuriste qui devient contre toute attente la star d'un comic book ?  Aujourd'hui, on parle de ROM, le chevalier de l'espace ! Les super-héros de la bande dessinée américaine et les produits dérivés, c'est une vieille histoire. Dès 1940, soit deux ans après sa première apparition dans Action Comics #1, Superman a droit à une adaptation en feuilleton radiophonique, mais également à une figurine à son effigie, produite par la société Ideal ! Si cette poupée de bois dotée d'une cape en tissu est simpliste, pour ne pas dire rustique, dans sa conception, elle reste cependant la première figurine de super-héros jamais fabriquée à grande échelle. Dans les années 1960, les avancées technologiques permettent de concevoir des jouets toujours plus perfectionnés. C'est notamment le cas avec les G.I. Joe de Hasbro, considérés comme les premières action figures, qui vont révolutionner le monde du jouet avec leurs poses réalistes et leurs accessoires inspirés d'armes ou de véhicules bien réels. Du côté des héros de comic books, le fabricant américain Mego obtient, en 1971, à la fois les droits des personnages de Marvel et de DC Comics et produira plusieurs dizaines de poupées articulées qui font aujourd'hui le bonheur des collectionneurs. Dès lors, les super-héros ne quitteront plus les magasins de jouets, de la gamme Secret Wars de Mattel en 1984, aux figurines Batman de Kenner surfant sur le succès de ses adaptations au cinéma ou de la série animée de Bruce Timm, en passant par les figurines de Toy Biz, tirées des séries animées consacrées à Spider-Man ou aux X-Men, dans les années 1990. Mais, comme vous pouvez l'imaginer, au milieu de ces réussites, on trouve aussi quelques tentatives plus ou moins fructueuses de faire cohabiter héros de plastique et héros de papier… C'est notamment vrai pour ROM the Space Knight, initiative commune de la société Parker Brothers et de Marvel Comics lancée en 1979. Si le personnage jouit encore aujourd'hui d'une forte popularité ; entretenue par une fanbase restreinte, mais fidèle ; son histoire reste un cas à part qui mérite d'être raconté. À l'orée des années 1980, les jouets embarquant de l'électronique ont le vent en poupe. Espérant surfer sur ce courant naissant, Scott Dankman, Richard C. Levy, et Bryan L. McCoy imaginent une figurine de robot à l'aspect humanoïde dotée d'effets sonores et lumineux qu'ils nomment COBOL, en référence au langage de programmation informatique du même nom. La société Parker Brothers, jusqu'alors spécialisée dans les jeux de société et derrière des licences connues de tous, comme le Cluedo ou le Monopoly, voit dans ce jouet ultramoderne l'occasion de conquérir un nouveau marché. Après avoir retravaillé le design et changé le nom en ROM ; acronyme de Read-Only Memory, sonnant bien mieux pour le grand public ; Parker décide de lancer la production de cette figurine en ménageant les coûts, afin d'éviter de perdre trop d'argent si le succès n'est pas au rendez-vous. Résultat : les économies et le manque d'expérience de Parker Brothers dans ce domaine font de ROM une figurine aussi avant-gardiste qu'imparfaite. Si elle est la première à embarquer autant d'électronique, proposant des fonctionnalités inédites pour l'époque, elle est également de conception assez médiocre, ce qui lui vaudra le droit d'être durement critiquée dans Time Magazine, qui annonçait qu'elle finirait rapidement sous un canapé, au milieu des moutons de poussière… Cachant une pile 9 volts dans son réacteur dorsal, ROM possède deux LED rouges à la place des yeux, un respirateur électronique produisant des “sons réalistes”, mais aussi trois accessoires lumineux : un analyseur, un traducteur et un neutraliseur, chacun ayant son utilité, bien entendu. Possédant autant de points d'articulation qu'une poupée Barbie, ROM sera intégré à la gamme Action Man de Palitoy au Royaume-Uni, mais peinera à se faire une place sur le marché américain. Avec moins de trois-cent-mille exemplaires vendus, Parker considérera cette incursion dans le monde de la figurine articulée comme un échec et abandonnera définitivement la ligne, sans jamais l'avoir étendue. Si McCoy rejette la responsabilité de ce fiasco sur le packaging peu accrocheur et la mauvaise communication de Parker Brothers, on ne peut pourtant pas reprocher à l'entreprise qui distribuait à cette époque le célèbre Scrabble, de ne pas avoir tout tenté pour promouvoir son robot. Car, si le jouet n'a pas su séduire les enfants, il n'en va pas de même pour la bande dessinée produite de décembre 1979 à février 1986 par Marvel Comics, à la demande de Parker. Quelques mois plus tôt, Bill Mantlo a convaincu l'éditeur en chef de Marvel Comics, Jim Shooter, d'acquérir la licence des jouets Micronauts, commercialisés aux États-Unis par Mego, pour en tirer une série de comic book. Dessinée par Michael Golden, Micronauts va connaître cinquante-neuf numéros et recevra le prix Eagle Award de la meilleure nouvelle série lors de la British Comic Art Convention de 1979. Considéré par Shooter comme apte à donner vie aux jouets dans des bandes dessinées, Mantlo, connu pour être le co-créateur de Rocket Racoon et de Cloak & Dagger, se voit donc octroyer le poste de scénariste sur ROM, tandis que le dessinateur Sal Buscema, qui a notamment œuvré sur Avengers ou Hulk, se charge de la partie graphique. Pour assurer la promotion de la figurine hi-tech de Parker, Bill Mantlo va devoir créer tout un background en partant de pratiquement rien. En premier lieu, ROM n'est plus un simple robot, mais plutôt un cyborg, un être vivant d'apparence humaine transformé en machine ultra perfectionnée. Issu de la rayonnante et très avancée civilisation Galadorienne, ROM est un chevalier de l'espace, chargé de pourchasser les Spectres Noirs, des créatures métamorphes dissimulées parmi les différentes populations de notre univers. Révélés par l'analyseur du champion de Galador, ces Spectres Noirs, ou Dire Wraiths en version originale, sont ensuite bannis dans une autre dimension grâce à son neutraliseur, tandis que son traducteur lui permet d'échanger avec les différents individus qui croisent son chemin. Vous l'avez compris, Bill Mantlo use des maigres éléments qui accompagnent la figurine articulée de Parker Brothers pour monter de toutes pièces une intrigue digne d'un film de science-fiction produit en plein maccarthysme. Heureusement pour nous, cette chasse aux créatures maléfiques infiltrées est loin d'être aussi simpliste que l'on pourrait le croire. Premièrement, la nature des Spectres Noirs, révélée par l'analyseur de ROM, reste totalement inconnue des humains. Ainsi, à leurs yeux, le justicier paré de chrome n'est ni plus ni moins qu'un extraterrestre impitoyable, exécutant leurs semblables en les désintégrant. Le Galadorien est donc considéré comme une menace par la presse, mais aussi par les autres héros Marvel qu'il va croiser au fil de ses aventures, comme Namor, Shang-Chi, ou encore le duo formé par Power Man et Iron Fist. Si cette intégration totale du personnage à l'univers de la Maison des Idées finira par se révéler problématique, elle permet dans un premier temps de donner beaucoup de relief à ROM. S'il est un cyborg bardé de gadgets électroniques, prétendument inarrêtable et indestructible, Mantlo et Buscema vont s'évertuer à entretenir un certain mystère autour de ses origines, en distillant les informations de façon sporadique, mais aussi à le mettre très souvent en mauvaise posture. La tension qui résulte de ces péripéties, associée au statut du personnage ; différent de celui des super-héros Marvel plus classiques, pour lesquels on ne s'inquiète déjà plus vraiment à l'époque ; accroît significativement l'attachement du lecteur pour ROM, ce qui participera assurément à la longévité de la série. Avec le temps, le ton devient plus adulte, le protagoniste plus violent, et l'ambiance beaucoup plus lourde, voire horrifique, si bien qu'en France, dans les pages du mensuel Strange, où elle est publiée depuis le numéro 133 en 1981, la série ROM sera souvent censurée et retouchée pour ne pas attirer les foudres du comité de censure des publications destinées à la jeunesse. Outre des thématiques tournant autour du rôle messianique du héros, de son sens du sacrifice et de la façon dont il est rejeté par ceux qu'il vient protéger, la série Marvel abordera également l'humanité perdue de son personnage principal, son sens du devoir et des responsabilités, et plus globalement la question du vivre-ensemble. Avec soixante-quinze numéros au total ; dont les derniers seront dessinés par Steve Ditko, l'un des artistes majeurs de Marvel Comics ; ROM est un parfait exemple de la façon dont la Maison des Idées a su miser sur de nombreuses licences, plus ou moins prometteuses, durant les décennies 70, 80 et 90. Après La Planète des Singes et Star Wars, et avant les G.I. Joe, les Transformers, les Sectaurs, les Dino Riders, l'Agence tous risques, Indiana Jones, Barbie, Alf, les Power Rangers, ou même les Bisounours, la série de Bill Mantlo et Sal Buscema s'inscrit dans une longue tradition de publications Marvel exploitant des marques pour des durées plus ou moins longues. Ce qui est remarquable avec ROM, c'est que le comic book aura longtemps survécu à la figurine dont il devait faire de la réclame et lui aura même créé tout un univers, ce que Parker n'avait pas su faire pour vendre son jouet. Car, le fabricant de jeux de société n'avait sûrement pas compris que, bien au-delà des sons et des lumières, c'est avant tout à l'imagination des enfants qu'il faut savoir faire appel pour leur donner envie de jouer. Aussi, leur robot raide comme la mort pouvait bien s'époumoner dans son respirateur, et épuiser la totalité de sa pile 9 volts en clignotant par toutes les extrémités, jamais cela n'aurait pu égaler toute la créativité des artistes qui se sont investis pour donner du corps et de l'esprit à ce bonhomme en plastique. En 1991, Parker est racheté par Hasbro, qui cédera la licence à l'éditeur IDW Publishing, aux côtés d'autres célèbres marques de jouets lui appartenant, comme M.A.S.K., Transformers ou G.I. Joe. Une nouvelle série de comics, lancée en 2016, va devoir réécrire toute la mythologie du personnage, car si le héros est bien la propriété de Hasbro, tout le lore développé par Bill Mantlo appartient à Marvel Comics. Pendant très longtemps, cet imbroglio juridique va rendre impossible toute réimpression des épisodes de ROM publiés par Marvel, mais également des numéros d'autres séries de l'éditeur dans lesquels le chevalier de l'espace faisait une apparition. Un casse-tête éditorial qui prend fin en 2023, quand Marvel trouve un accord avec Hasbro, et annonce dans la foulée la ressortie de la série en format omnibus, avec un premier volume compilant les vingt-neuf premiers numéros, dont la sortie est prévue pour janvier 2024. Le Time Magazine a eu tort, on se souvient encore de ROM, le chevalier de l'espace. Peut-être pas autant que de Goldorak ou de Musclor, et plus comme d'un héros de comics que comme d'un jouet novateur un peu trop en avance sur son temps, mais il n'a pas disparu. Et c'est très certainement en partie grâce au travail de Bill Mantlo et Sal Buscema. Gravement blessé après avoir été renversé par un chauffard, jamais identifié, en 1992, Bill Mantlo aura attendu de nombreuses années, et la sortie des Gardiens de la Galaxie au cinéma en 2014, pour recevoir la reconnaissance que lui devait Marvel Comics. À l'heure ou ROM revient sur le devant de la scène, s'offrant à une nouvelle génération de lecteurs et apportant avec lui rumeurs et bruits de couloir autour d'éventuels projets d'adaptations au cinéma, espérons que les éditeurs, les studios, mais aussi le public, sauront faire preuve d'un peu moins d'ingratitude à l'égard de ceux qui ont modelé son univers. N'hésitez pas à partager cet article sur les réseaux sociaux s'il vous a plu !

All Star Superman è una miniserie a fumetti di dodici numeri dedicata all'omonimo personaggio, scritta da Grant Morrison, disegnata da Frank Quitely, colorata digitalmente da Jamie Grant e pubblicata dalla DC Comics tra il novembre 2005 e l'ottobre 2008; in Italia è stata edita da Planeta DeAgostini dal 2009.Uno: https://amzn.to/3ceydbbDue: https://amzn.to/3fGV80HLa trama verte sull'ultimo anno di vita di Superman, colpito da una massiccia dose di radiazioni solari, dopo aver compiuto un salvataggio sul Sole, che hanno "sovraccaricato" le cellule del suo corpo, innescando un processo degenerativo che condurrà Superman alla morte in un arco di tempo di dodici mesi. La notizia del suo imminente trapasso lo porta a sciogliere tutte le questioni irrisolte e lasciate in sospeso nella sua vita: dall'eterno problema di Kandor, ultima città del suo pianeta ridotta a vivere in forma miniaturizzata, al suo rapporto con Lois Lane, fino al confronto con il suo acerrimo nemico, Lex Luthor.Elogiata dal pubblico e dalla critica, in particolare da autori come Mark Waid, la serie ottenne diversi riconoscimenti, tra cui tre Eisner Award, tre Eagle Award e due Harvey Awards ed è la seconda collana ad essere lanciata sotto l'etichetta All Star DC Comics, dopo All Star Batman e Robin nel settembre 2005. Questa linea è la risposta all'etichetta Ultimate della Marvel Comics in cui gli autori possono rinarrare le storie dei personaggi al di fuori della continuity vigente sulle altre pubblicazioni con gli stessi protagonisti. Secondo gli editori l'intento della serie era quello di «Riportare l'Uomo d'Acciaio ai suoi elementi essenziali e senza tempo».*** Iscriviti al Canale ➜ http://bit.ly/Lucadeejay ****** Qui trovi tutto: https://linktr.ee/ilucadeejay ***#dc #superman #lucadeejay #allstarsuperman #grantmorrison #frankquitely
