Here are the 2022-23 exchanges – the company has not yet released 2023-24 passes:Why I interviewed himThere are more than a dozen companies that own three or more ski areas in North America. The National Ski Areas Association itemizes most of them* here. Everyone knows Vail and Aspen, whether they ski or not. The next tier is a little more insider, but not much: Alterra, Boyne, Powdr. These are the ski companies with national footprints and Ikon Pass headliner resorts. If skiers haven't heard of these companies, they're familiar with Mammoth and Big Sky and Snowbird. Everything else on the list is regionally dense: Invision Capital's three California ski areas (Mountain High, Dodge Ridge, China Peak); Wisconsin Resorts six Midwestern bumps (Alpine Valley, Pine Knob, Mt. Holly, and Bittersweet in Michigan; Alpine Valley in Wisconsin; and Searchmont in Ontario); the State of New York's Belleayre, Gore, and Whiteface. Some – like Midwest Family Ski Resorts' trio of gigantors – align with Indy Pass, while others stand alone, with a pass just for their mountains, like Mountain Capital Partners' Power Pass.PGRI doesn't fit any of these templates. The company has a national footprint, with properties stretching from coastal BC to New Hampshire, but no national pass presence (at least before the company inherited Jay Peak's Indy Pass membership). Its properties' season passes sort of work together but sort of don't. It's all a little strange: a small ski area operator, based in Park City, whose nearest ski area is more than a 400-mile drive away, on the edge of Colorado's Grand Mesa. PGRI is built like a regional operator, but its ski areas are scattered across the continent, including in improbable-seeming locales such as Maryland and Virginia.Despite the constant facile reminders that American Skiing Company and SKI failed, small conglomerates such as PGRI are likely the future of skiing. Owning multiple resorts in multiple regions is the best kind of weather insurance. Scale builds appeal both for national pass coalitions and for banks, who often control the cash register. A larger company can build a talent pipeline to shift people around and advance their careers, which often improves retention, creating, in turn, a better ski experience. Or so the theories go. Independence will always have advantages, and consolidation its pitfalls, but the grouping together of ski resorts is not going away. So let's talk to one of the companies actively growing on its own terms, in its own way, and setting a new template for what corporate skiing balanced with local control can look like.*Missing from the NSAA's list is the Schmitz Brothers trio of Wisconsin ski areas: Little Switzerland, Nordic Mountain, and The Rock Snow Park; the list also includes Sun Valley and Snowbasin, which are jointly owned by the Holding Family, but excludes the other two-resort groups around the country: Berkshire East/Catamount, Labrador/Song, 49 Degrees North/Silver Mountain, Homewood/Red Lodge, Perfect North/Timberline, and Mission Ridge/Blacktail - there may be others).What we talked aboutThe bomber western winter; closing Wintergreen early; the existential importance of Eastern snowmaking; why Mid-Atlantic ski resorts are such great businesses; growing up in the ski industry; Mt. Bachelor in the ‘90s; Breck in the early Vail days; why founding the Mountain Collective was harder than you probably think; the surprising mountain that helped start but never joined the pass; how essential the existence of Mountain Collective was to Ikon Pass; why Ikon didn't kill Mountain Collective; the origins and structure of Pacific Group Resorts (PGRI); reviving the historically troubled Ragged Mountain; the two things that PGRI did differently from previous owners to finally help Ragged succeed; the Mission: Affordable pass suite; how Jay Peak turbocharged reciprocity between the company's resorts; how reciprocity for Jay Peak may shape up for 2023-24 passes; why we're unlikely to see a Mission: Affordable pass at Jay Peak; why Mount Washington Alpine hasn't had a Mission: Affordable pass; the future of Jay Peak – and, potentially the rest of PGRI's portfolio – on the Indy Pass; the fate of Ragged's Pinnacle Peak expansion; how and why PGRI started running and eventually purchased Wisp and Wintergreen; wild and isolated Mount Washington Alpine; could that Vancouver Island resort ever be a destination?; thoughts on replacing the West End double at Powderhorn; why PGRI has not prioritized lift replacements at the rate of some of its competitors; priorities for lift upgrades at Wisp; winning the bid for Jay Peak; reflecting on receivership; the chances of getting a new Bonaventure lift; and whether PGRI will buy more ski areas.Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewThe lazy answer: PGRI just bought Jay Peak, and while writing the various stories leading up to and after the auction in which they acquired the joint, I established contact with PGRI corporate HQ for the first time. My first impression was not a great one (on their side), as I managed to not only jack up the company name in the headline announcing their opening bid, but get the fundamentals of the story so wrong that I had to issue a correction with a full article re-send for the only time in Storm history. Which apparently created a huge PR pain in the ass for them. Sorry.Maybe the stupid jokes eventually disarmed them over or something, but for whatever reason Knapp agreed to do the pod. As you know I don't typically host marketing-type folks. I work with them all the time and value them immensely, but that's just not the brand. The brand is talk-to-whoever-is-in-charge-of-whatever-mountain-or-company-I'm-talking-about. But Knapp is a unique case, the former CMO of Aspen Skiing Company and the creator of the uber-relevant-to-my-readers Mountain Collective Pass. So Knapp joins the equally impressive Hugh Reynolds of Snow Partners as the only other marketing lead to ever carry his own episode.Ahem. What I was trying to get to is this: yes, this was a convenient time to drill into PGRI, because they just bought one of the most important ski resorts on the Eastern seaboard and everyone's like, “Now what, Bro?” But this is a company that has been quietly relevant for years. It cannot be overstated what an absolute shitshow Ragged Mountain was for five decades. No one could get that thing right. Now it is one of the most well-regarded ski areas in New Hampshire, with knockout grooming, a killer glade network, one of the state's best lift systems, and a customer-friendly orientation that begins with its ridiculous Mission: Affordable season pass, one of the few all-access season passes under $400 at a thousand-foot-plus mountain in New England.Which set them up perfectly to glide into the Jay marquee. Almost any other buyer would have ignited mutiny at Jay. No one I've spoken to who skis the mountain regularly wanted the place anywhere near the Ikon Pass. So no Alterra, Powdr, or Boyne. Epic? LOL no. Locals have seen enough downstate. Another rich asshat cackling with cartoon glee as he shifts hundreds of millions of dollars around like he's reorganizing suitcases in his Escalade? F**k no. Jay will be shedding the scabs of Ariel Quiros' various schemes for decades. PGRI hit that Goldilocks spot, a proven New England operator without megapass baggage that has operated scandal-free for 15 years, and is run by people who know how to make a big resort go (PGRI CEO Vern Greco is former president and GM of both Park City and Steamboat, and the former COO of Powdr Corp).PGRI is just good at running ski areas. Wisp opened Thanksgiving weekend, despite 70-degree temperatures through much of that month, despite being in Maryland. Visitation has been trending up at Powderhorn for years after steady snowmaking improvements. It's hard to find anyone with a bad opinion of Ragged.But PGRI has never been what business folk call a “consumer-facing brand.” Meaning they let the resorts speak for themselves. Meaning we don't know much about the company behind all those mountains, or what their plans are to build out their network. Or build within it, for that matter. PGRI has only stood up one new chairlift in 16 years – the Spear Mountain high-speed quad at Ragged. Powderhorn skiers are side-eyeing the 51-year-old, 1,655-vertical-foot, 7,000-foot-long West End double chair and thinking, “are you kidding me with this thing?” Five years into ownership, they want a plan. Or at least to know it's a priority. There are lesser examples all over the portfolio. It was time to see what these guys were thinking.Questions I wish I'd askedI had a few questions teed up that I didn't quite get to: why is Ragged still owned by something called RMR-Pacific LLC (and operated by PGRI)? I also wanted to understand why some PGRI ski areas use dynamic pricing but others don't. I'm still a little confused as to the exact timeline of Pacific Group purchasing Ragged and then PGRI materializing to take over the ski area. And of course I could have filled an entire hour with questions on any of the six ski areas. What I got wrongWhen I summarized Ragged's traumatic financial history, I said, “ownership defaulted on a loan.” It sounded as though I was suggesting that PGRI defaulted on the loan, when it was in fact the previous owner. You can read the full history of Ragged's many pre-PGRI financial issues on New England Ski History.I said that Midwest Family Ski Resorts had announced two new high-speed six-packs “in the past couple years.” They've actually announced two within the past year, both of which will be built this summer: a new Eagle Mountain lift at Lutsen, and a new sixer to replace three old Riblets on the Jackson Creek Summit side of Snowriver.Somehow though I got through this entire interview without calling the company “Pacific Resorts Group” and I would like credit for this please.Why you should ski PGRI's mountainsWell let's just fire through these real quick. Jay: most snow in the East. Nearly 300 inches so far even in this drab-until-the-past-two-weeks New England season. Some of the best glade skiing in the country. Just look:Ragged: Also strong on glades, though it gets maybe a third of Jay's snowfall if it's lucky. When the snow doesn't come, Ragged has some of the best grooming in New Hampshire:Wisp and Wintergreen: you know, I take my kid to Mt. Peter, a small ski area outside of New York City, every Saturday for a seasonal ski program. I'd say 80 percent of the parents arrive in street clothes, drop their kids, and sit in the lodge zombie-scrolling their phones for 90 minutes. Why? Why wouldn't a person ski every opportunity they have? This is what Wisp and Wintergreen exist for. Sure, you live in the Mid-Atlantic. No one is trying to pretend it's Colorado. But these are good little mountains. Wisp is a zinger, with terrific fall line skiing. Wintergreen sprawls, with a fun trail network and two high-speed sixers. If you live anywhere near them, there's absolutely no reason not to pick up their sub-$400 season passes (though Wintergreen's is not a true season pass, excluding Saturdays and holidays, which are reserved for club members) to supplement the Epic or Ikon Pass you use for those Western or New England vacations:Powderhorn: If you live in Grand Junction, you can fight your way east, or stop on the Mesa and go skiing:Mt. Washington Alpine: I know you'll all tell me this is for locals, that no one would bother trekking out to Vancouver Island when they can reach Whistler in a fraction of the time. But I don't know man, I've done enough wild voyages to the ass-ends of the earth to have convinced myself that it's always worth it, especially if skiing is involved:Besides, you're not going to find Whistler crowds here, and this is about enough mountain for most of us.Podcast NotesOn Wisp and Wintergreen opening and closing datesI mentioned on the podcast that Wisp opened in November. The exact date was Nov. 25 for Wisp. The resort is still open today, though on “limited terrain,” and I imagine the season is winding down quickly. Wintergreen opened on Dec. 20 and closed Feb. 26. Ugh.On the world's largest snow fortKnapp said he helped start this tradition when he worked at Keystone:On the Mountain CollectiveKnapp and I had an extensive discussion about his role founding Mountain Collective, which debuted in 2012 with two days each at Alta, Aspen-Snowmass, Jackson Hole, and Palisades Tahoe. At $349, it's underwhelming to today's ski consumer, but it's impossible to overstate how miraculous it was that the product existed at all. I won't give away the whole story, but this 2012 Powder article crystalizes the shock and stoke around the realization that these four resorts were on the same pass, Brah!On Pinnacle Peak at Ragged PGRI is probably hoping I will stop asking them about this stalled expansion at Ragged sometime this century. No luck so far, as I presented Knapp with the same set of questions that I'd asked Ragged GM Erik Barnes on the podcast last year. Here's what I was talking about: in 2007, PGRI took over Ragged. From 2014 to 2019, the mountain teased this future expansion on its trailmaps:Then, without explanation, the expansion disappeared. What happened? “The expansion does not make financial sense,” Knapp told me last year. But I wanted a more thorough explanation. Knapp delivered. This is still one of the most talked-about projects in New England, and its sudden abeyance has been a source of curiosity and confusion for Ragged skiers for a few years now.

Pas question, donc, sur la réforme des retraites, d'appeler à l'insurrection sociale ou même de défiler dans les cortèges syndicaux, où les élus du Rassemblement national ne sont de toutes façons pas les bienvenus. La chef du RN mènera son combat d'abord à l'Assemblée nationale et dans les médias pour défendre son programme : maintien de l'âge légal de départ à 62 ans pour 42 annuités, arrêt de la réforme Touraine qui vise à augmenter le nombre de trimestres cotisés et retraite garantie à 60 ans pour les carrières longues.Selon les chiffres de l'Ifop, 68 % des électeurs du Rassemblement national se disent révoltés, contre la réforme des retraites contre 48 % des Français. Et 71 % des électeurs de Marine Le Pen disent souhaiter une explosion sociale du type de celle des Gilets jaunes, contre 52 % des Français.Néanmoins, afin de réussir à conforter sa base électorale très hostile à la réforme des retraites, sans pour autant grever ses chances de séduire de nouveaux électeurs ancrés à droite, hostiles aux grèves comme aux manifestations et pour qui l'allongement de la durée du travail peut être perçu comme une nécessité, Marine Le Pen poursuit sa stratégie de normalisation qui repose presque uniquement sur le travail parlementaire. Chaque député RN a été prié d'optimiser son emploi du temps pour occuper « 24 heures sur 24 » les bancs de l'Hémicycle durant les débats sur la réforme. Dans cette bataille, Marine Le Pen compte donner de sa personne depuis l'hémicycle, où elle préside un groupe de 87 députés depuis les élections législatives de juin 2022. Deux défaites au second tour des législatives partielles le 29 janvier dernier ont amputé le groupe frontiste d'une députée, et empêché l'élection d'un autre, dans le Pas-de-Calais. 20.363 amendements ont été déposés sur le projet de loi examiné en séance depuis le 6 février. La Nupes en a déposé 17.910, dont elle a retiré une partie. Le RN pensant que la « qualité » prime sur la quantité 238, et aucun doublon. Au sein du groupe RN, certains considèrent que moins d'un amendement par député, lorsque l'on prétend concentrer ses forces sur la bataille à l'Assemblée, est insuffisant. Le parti justifie cette stratégie par le temps contraint d'examen du texte, et la nécessité d'aller jusqu'à un vote.Dans une étude réalisée par YouGov pour Le HuffPost les 30 et 31 janvier, les sondés estiment à 25% que la Nupes incarne le mieux l'opposition à la réforme des retraites, 20% des sondés désignent le RN. Selon un sondage BVA/RTL, publié le 15 février, 44% des Français ont une bonne image de l'action des syndicats dans la réforme des retraite, 26% sont favorables aux politiques qui sont pour la réforme, 27% pour ceux qui sont résolument contre, comme LFI, tandis que le RN recueille 35% d'opinions favorables.***UKRAINE : ENLISEMENT OU ESCALADE ?Alors que les combats redoublent d'intensité depuis fin janvier dans l'Est ukrainien, où l'armée russe est à l'offensive, Washington, Londres, Berlin et Varsovie ont donné leur feu vert à l'envoi de chars lourds à Kiev. Une première pour les dirigeants occidentaux qui veulent soutenir l'Ukraine jusqu'au départ des forces russes, tout en évitant une « escalade » avec Moscou. Depuis le début de l'invasion russe, le 24 février 2022, ils ont d'abord consenti de livrer à l'Ukraine des armes « défensives », puis des systèmes antiaériens, puis de l'artillerie tractée, puis des transports de troupes blindés. Lors de sa tournée à Londres, Paris et Bruxelles, début février, le président Zelensky a demandé avec insistance des avions de combat et des missiles de longue portée. Plusieurs pays, dont la France ou les Pays-Bas, ne l'excluent pas.L'ambassadeur russe à Berlin a pointé une volonté d'« escalade permanente » de l'Allemagne et des alliés, tandis que le Kremlin a dénoncé « l'engagement direct » de l'Occident dans le conflit. Le 25 janvier, devant le Bundestag, le chancelier allemand a affirmé : « Nous faisons ce qui est nécessaire et possible pour soutenir l'Ukraine, mais nous empêchons en même temps une escalade de la guerre, vers une guerre entre la Russie et l'OTAN ». L'Elysée a également répété que, contrairement à ce que prétend Moscou, la livraison de chars de combat à l'Ukraine « n'est pas escalatoire »,à partir du moment où Kiev les utilise uniquement pour libérer ses territoires. Pour s'en assurer, les alliés imposent aux Ukrainiens un « cadre d'emploi » très strict de leurs matériels. Emmanuel Macron et Olaf Scholz, qui ont tout fait depuis onze mois pour maintenir un canal de communication avec le chef du Kremlin, ont admis que les pourparlers qu'ils appellent de leurs vœux lorsque les Ukrainiens y seront prêts n'étaient pas à l'ordre du jour et que l'urgence ordonnait au contraire de renforcer leur soutien à Kyiv, sans entrer en guerre avec la Russie.Après plusieurs mois de statu quo, plusieurs signes indiquent que la guerre s'apprête à entrer dans une nouvelle phase. Selon les renseignements occidentaux, cités par le Financial Times, « la Russie amasse des avions et des hélicoptères près de la frontière avec l'Ukraine », avant de lancer une vaste offensive. The Guardian évoque une « phrase cruciale » du conflit. Il estime que « l'envoi de plus de chars occidentaux ne signifie pas que la guerre est désormais presque finie. Elle va encore durer des mois, pour ne pas dire des années. Ce qui change, souligne le quotidien britannique,c'est que l'attitude des Occidentaux s'est durcie, et que les chars confèrent un avantage militaire à l'Ukraine qui pourrait être décisif ».Toutefois, selon le secrétaire général de l'Otan, Jens Stoltenberg, « le taux de consommation de munitions par les Ukrainiens est plus élevé que le taux de production » par les alliés. « On estime que les troupes de Kyiv tirent quotidiennement plus de 5.000 obus d'artillerie ». Quant à la Russie, elle tire « en moyenne 20.000 pièces d'artillerie par jour », soit « l'équivalent de la production mensuelle européenne », a averti la première ministre estonienne, Kaja Kallas.Vous pouvez consulter notre politique de confidentialité sur https://art19.com/privacy ainsi que la notice de confidentialité de la Californie sur https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Tous les samedis et dimanches soir, Pierre de Vilno reçoit des invités pour deux débats d'actualités. Avis tranchés et arguments incisifs sont aux programmes à 19h30 et 19h44 pour décrypter l'actualité.
Dans l'engagement aux côtés de Kiev, les puissances occidentales font un pas en avant. Berlin a annoncé la livraison de chars Leopard 2, Washington de chars Abrams. Paris livrera peut-être à son tour des chars Leclerc, après les chars légers AMX annoncés début janvier. Ce matériel-là est d'une autre nature que celui fourni jusqu'alors. Il est récent et moderne et surtout, possède des capacités offensives. Finis les seuls soutiens logistique et défensif, l'Union européenne et les États-Unis passent à la vitesse supérieure et cela inquiète certains observateurs. Ce changement de politique nous fait-il passer du statut d'ami ou d'allié à celui de cobelligérant? Cela ne risque-t-il pas d'entraîner une irréversible escalade sur le terrain ukrainien et au-delà? C'est en tout cas les arguments de celles et ceux qui appellent à la négociation avec Moscou. Mais pour négocier quoi, et avec qui? Le monde devant soi est un podcast hebdomadaire d'actualité internationale présenté par Christophe Carron, avec Jean-Marie Colombani, directeur de la publication de Slate.fr, Alain Frachon, éditorialiste au Monde spécialisé dans les questions internationales.

Brian joins Alex this week to talk about the sub-brand trend, where automakers create families out of popular model lines. Toyota tried and failed with the Prius, Land Rover tried and massively succeeded with the Range Rover. GM seems to be considering going all-in with Camaro, Corvette and Escalade sub-brands. Should that be considered overkill, or are brands like Jeep and Ford onto something with this? Podcast theme by Brian Roskelly.

Cadillac's Escalade is probably the first image that springs to your mind when you think of high-end, full-size SUVs. It's earned that by dominating the luxury SUV sales charts for a long time. Not resting on their laurels, the folks at Cadillac took their flagship SUV and added a hefty dose of horsepower before slapping on a V-Series badge. Formally named the 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V, this hot-rodded people mover features a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 that sends 682 hp and 653 lb-ft of torque through a 10-speed automatic transmission and a standard four-wheel-drive system. This all works together to help this three-ton luxury liner sprint to 60 mph in only 4.3-seconds. On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek's Executive Editor Tom Murphy slides behind the wheel of the 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V and puts it through its paces. Murphy guides you around the Escalade-V and shows off some of its best interior and exterior features. Later in the show, Murphy takes you along on a live drive review. Adding to the discussion, Murphy chats with host Wesley Wren about the Escalade-V, the competition and Cadillac's direction. Closing the show, the two talk about what makes this '23 Cadillac Escalade-V special.
L'émission 28 Minutes du 27/10/2022 Au programme de l'émission du 8 novembre 2021 ⬇ Du cabinet de conseil à la ferme bio : paysanne et fière de l'être ! Diplômée de Sciences Po, Noémie Calais était promise à une brillante carrière dans le milieu des cabinets de conseil et du lobbying. Elle y a travaillé avant de changer complètement de cap suite à des problèmes de santé. C'est vers la paysannerie qu'elle s'est tournée, et plus précisément vers l'élevage de porcs noirs dans le Gers. Son parcours original a de quoi être enviable auprès de ceux et celles qui aspirent à un changement de vie depuis le confinement. Mais son métier, bien que passionnant, est exigeant au quotidien : 40 à 70 heures de travail hebdomadaire pour 500 € par mois, et le tout sans jours fériés. Dans "Plutôt nourrir" (Tana éditions), elle met en récit ses réflexions autour de l'élevage paysan. Noémie Calais est notre invitée. En Europe, doit-on se préparer à une escalade nucléaire ? Dimanche, le ministre russe de la Défense Sergueï Choïgou appelait ses homologues français, turc, britannique et américain pour leur faire part de ses inquiétudes quant à l'utilisation par l'Ukraine d'une bombe sale. Il s'agit d'une arme constituée d'explosifs conventionnels entourés de matériaux radioactifs destinés à être disséminés lors de l'explosion. Mardi, devant le Conseil de sécurité de l'ONU, la Russie a réitéré ses accusations. Elles ont été qualifiées dans la foulée d'"absurdes" et de "dangereuses" par Kiev et par les Occidentaux. "Personne ne serait dupe d'une tentative d'utiliser cette allégation comme prétexte à une escalade", ont réagi les ministres des Affaires étrangères de la France, du Royaume-Uni et des États-Unis. Cette bombe sale pourrait-elle être utilisée par les Russes, en difficulté sur le front ? En menaçant d'utiliser l'arme nucléaire pour protéger sa conquête de l'Ukraine, Vladimir Poutine a-t-il fait entrer le monde dans le troisième âge nucléaire ? Nos invités en débattent. Enfin, retrouvez également les chroniques de Xavier Mauduit et d'Alix Van Pée. 28 Minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Elisabeth Quin du lundi au vendredi à 20h05. Renaud Dély est aux commandes de l'émission le samedi. Ce podcast est coproduit par KM et ARTE Radio. Enregistrement : 27 octobre 2022 - Présentation : Élisabeth Quin - Production : KM, ARTE Radio

Le régime nord-coréen a procédé à sept tirs de missiles balistiques depuis le 25 septembre, ce qui porte à une quarantaine le nombre d'essais effectués depuis le début de l'année. Jamais la Corée du nord n'avait à ce point multiplié les frappes sur un temps aussi court. Pour la première fois depuis 2017, l'un de ces projectiles a survolé le Japon, et il a franchi une distance suffisante pour atteindre l'ile américaine de Guam dans le Pacifique. Lundi, Pyong-Yang a de surcroit annoncé que les tirs récents s'inscrivaient dans le cadre de simulations nucléaires tactiques. « Ces essais de lancements de missiles balistiques étaient la simulation d'une guerre réelle » a précisé la Corée du Nord. Les experts américains et sud-coréens préviennent : le régime de Kim s'apprêterait à effectuer un septième essai nucléaire. Le pays est déjà soumis à de rudes sanctions internationales, mais rien ne semble arrêter le régime de Kim Jong Un. Peut-on contenir l'escalade nord-coréenne ?

Aren't you tired of hearing the Unnamed Automotive Podcast cover mainstream cars that you might actually see on the road? This weeks episode deals with those blahs you're feeling with a pair of niche luxury vehicles. First up Benjamin talks about the 2022 Lexus LX600, which rides on a new platform and features a fresh powertrain. But things aren't aligning properly for Ben, who isn't sure if this is really a Escalade competitor, or a Land Cruiser replacement. Sure it has the 'golden ratio,' but what does that mean when it's almost impossible to fit in the rear seat without an advanced contortionist's degree? Sami chimes in with his own confusing thoughts on the 2022 Volvo S90 Recharge. While he's sure to mention the impressive power and torque from this speedy PHEV, don't miss his thoughts on how it charges...eventually. Our hosts also discuss the conflict of ideas going on at Volvo, and how the company has ended up delivering cars with potential but limited execution.

Vladimir Poutine vient d'annoncer la mobilisation partielle des réservistes. La guerre va-t-elle s'intensifier ? Et s'il allait plus loin encore en décrétant la mobilisation générale ? Des hypothèses qui se renforcent au vu des derniers événements. « Jusqu'à maintenant, rappelle Le Figaro, les combats sont simplement qualifiés d'"opération militaire spéciale" par le Kremlin, ce qui implique que la Russie n'est pas à proprement parler en état de guerre. Mais, pointe le journal, les difficultés rencontrées sur le champ de bataille et la perspective que les régions pro-russes d'Ukraine fassent prochainement partie intégrante du territoire russe alors qu'elles se trouvent sous le feu des Ukrainiens, tout cela pourraient pousser le dirigeant russe à revoir sa position. C'est en tout cas ce que laisse entrevoir un projet de loi présenté hier à la Douma. La chambre basse du Parlement russe a en effet voté des amendements ajoutant les termes de '"mobilisation" et de "loi martiale" au Code pénal. La chambre haute pourrait suivre dès ce mercredi. Ces modifications substantielles ouvriraient (donc) une brèche pour la mobilisation générale, à laquelle Vladimir Poutine s'est refusé jusqu'à présent. » Faire accepter une mobilisation générale… Pour Libération, cette hypothèse ne serait pas sans risque… « Même si elle était organisée de façon inégale, à savoir en mettant de côté les jeunes des grandes villes du pays, la mobilisation générale représenterait un risque social très important pour le Kremlin. Son intérêt serait limité sur le terrain et représenterait un nouvel aveu de faiblesse pour l'opinion publique. Pour autant, reconnait Libération, si tous les Russes n'ont pas compris ce que leur armée est allée faire à Kherson, Melitopol ou Kharkiv ces derniers mois, ils ont eu huit ans pour intégrer le discours d'un "génocide du Donbass" diffusé quotidiennement à la télévision. En annexant ces terres, comme avec la Crimée, le Kremlin pourra donner corps à la menace et peut-être faire accepter une mobilisation quasi générale et l'entrée dans une guerre officielle. Une guerre que Vladimir Poutine souhaiterait "terminer au plus vite", selon les présidents de la Turquie et de l'Inde, qui ont eu l'occasion de s'entretenir avec lui la semaine dernière. » Des référendums plutôt précipités… Autre regain de tension : les autorités pro-russes des régions de Louhansk, Donetsk, Zaporijjia et Kherson ont annoncé la tenue prochaine de référendums de rattachement à Moscou. Une « décision précipitée », relève Le Monde, qui « a suscité surprises et condamnations, surtout chez les alliés de l'Ukraine en Europe et aux États-Unis. Dans ces pays, l'initiative est vue comme une façon pour Vladimir Poutine de tenter de reprendre la main (…) après des semaines de recul de ses troupes sur le terrain face à la contre-offensive des forces ukrainiennes. Désormais, redoutent les Occidentaux, une éventuelle annexion des territoires occupés pourrait signifier une extension du conflit si Moscou devait appeler à la mobilisation générale afin de chercher à les défendre, au moment où la ligne de front évolue d'un jour à l'autre dans certains endroits. Pour les plus pessimistes, relève encore Le Monde, le risque pourrait également être celui d'un éventuel recours aux armes nucléaires si, d'aventure, les combats qui vont se prolonger devaient être considérés comme un risque "existentiel" par la Russie. » Iran : le courage des femmes À la Une également, l'émoi en Iran et un peu partout dans le monde, après la mort de Mahsa Amini. Cette jeune iranienne de 22 ans, détenue par la police des mœurs pour avoir laissé dépasser de son voile des mèches de cheveux, est morte alors qu'elle était en garde à vue. Une mort pour le moins suspecte qui a embrasé une grande partie du pays. « Iran : le courage des femmes », titre Le Parisien. « Aujourd'hui, commente le journal, elles sont des centaines dans tout le pays, au nom de Mahsa, au nom de leurs sœurs, leurs amies, leurs mères… qui bravent les regards noirs, les ordres et les coups de fouet de leurs bourreaux. Des femmes follement courageuses qui se lèvent pour brûler ces foulards qui les étouffent, des femmes qui se dévoilent, lâchent leurs cheveux et montrent des visages qui rayonnent. En face, poursuit Le Parisien, les masques tombent et le régime s'affole car elles deviennent trop dangereuses. Trop indépendantes. Alors on arrête, on emprisonne, on menace et on terrorise. Mais rien n'y fait et le prénom de Mahsa semble une vague qui déferle (…). »
Big things is the subtitle for episode 286, as Benjamin and Sami drive and dive into a pair of new SUVs on the road. First up Benjamin discusses the 2023 Cadillac Escalade V, a large barge of a truck with nearly 50 percent more supercharged power than the normal Escalade. He describes what its like to wield that much force when you're piloting such an enormous vehicle. As usual, there are a more than a few tangents about related vehicles and the latest updates to GM's Super Cruise feature. Then Sami returns from Spain where he drove the new 2023 Range Rover Sport, including its impressive (to him) PHEV model. Sami answers the ever-important question of "Whats the deal with the Range Rover Sport anyways?" by telling you about its price, seat configuration and other products at Jaguar-Land Rover, before getting distracted by a LIGHTNING ROUND of Detroit Auto Show news. That's the fun of this week's episode, so be sure to subsribe, drop us a line on social media, or send us a tip through Ko-Fi!
Lincoln's flagship Navigator was launched in 1998 as a response to the increasing demand for luxurious full-size SUVs. Spanning four generations, Lincoln's top-flight SUV has gone head to head against Cadillac's wildly popular Escalade. This fourth-generation Navigator entered Lincoln's lineup in 2018 and helped bring Lincoln's flagship SUV into prominence once again. This generation Navigator uses Ford's 3.5-liter EcoBoost for power and sends 440 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque through a ten-speed automatic transmission. From there, power travels to the rear wheels or all four wheels if you opt for the four-wheel-drive variant. In this episode of Quick Spin, executive editor Tom Murphy puts Lincoln's Navigator through its paces. Murphy highlights the Navigator's features and interior before taking you along on a live drive review. Adding more context to the Navigator, Murphy chats with host Wesley Wren about the Navigator's competition, its sales history and its price. The pair also talk about where the Navigator would excel, and how it stacks up against Cadillac's Escalade. Closing the show, the two talk about what makes the 2022 Lincoln Navigator special.

Even if you like Final Fantasy, I think we can all agree that last week's notes went off the deep end. Well, I'm nothing if not a trend follower, so this week I'm going to write way too much about my own thing. I was never much of a sports guy. I liked playing them just fine — tennis and soccer all through elementary and high school — but I never really enjoyed watching them. I'd much rather be out there doing them than sitting around. At the same time, I always liked cars as a combination of industrial design and mechanical engineering, two sides of the same coin that each have to bend to serve the other. But I was never a gearhead, either. So no one was more surprised than me to find out how much I cared about Formula 1. Imagine you're a driver of the fastest vehicle in the world, in a cockpit about ten inches from the ground. There is no windshield. The only thing separating you from the asphalt is a quarter inch of carbon fiber. Behind you sits an engine so finely tuned for speed that if you slow down too much, it bursts into flame from the lack of cooling air. In the pursuit of maximum speed, your car shapes the air rushing around it at 200 miles per hour so that your car is glued to the track with so much force that if you drove up the wall of a tunnel, you could stick to the ceiling. They're called "wings," and if you turned them upside down, you could fly. Sometimes cars do. The difference between scoring something and nothing is fractional seconds. If you're in fourth, you might as well have not raced at all, even though the guy who got third might just be three one-hundreths of a second ahead of you — literally faster than the blink of an eye. Enter a corner ten inches too far to the left or get on the throttle a little too slow and suddenly your perfect lap becomes a worthless one. You're surrounded by nineteen other cars just like yours, and all of you are the size of an Escalade. Everyone is watching for a tiny mistake to capitalize on. Blow an exit and watch as three drivers blow past you like you're not even there. The only way to get ahead is to be as aggressive as you can: hit the brake later than the other guy, force him wide so you can get the better line, trick him into passing where you're weak so you can return the favor where you're strong. Great, that was lap one. Now do it 70 more times.

Hour 2: The 7am hour opens with Mekhi Becton being put on the Physically Unable to Perform list by the Jets. A caller says Andrew Dice Clay canceled three shows because the club sent an Escalade instead of a limo to get him. Peter returns for an update and starts with the Yankees losing a double header to the Astros. In the last segment of the hour, we talk about Dom Smith and how there is supposedly heavy interest in him by other teams. There are rumors of Ohtani to the Braves.
Hour 1 Boomer is out today so it's Gio & Jerry this morning. They open with the Yankees losing a double header to the Astros to start the second half of the season. Once again people are starting to think the Yankees can't beat the Astros in Houston and this could be a big problem come playoff time.
