SEQUENCES No270 A brief update on the latest new names for this month's first edition. On the modular front, Anders Jakobsen aims to create a balance between noisy and harmonious sounds. We are in a live session with Danielle Nia. Thierry Holwerk is using a Serge Modular Synth, paired with field samples recorded from his source of inspiration. Mansur's sound journey navigates the realms of musical fantasy and reality, merging traditional instrumentation with contemporary electronica. Nettaiya is a groundbreaking New Age music project that fuses Eastern and Western influences into an ethereal sonic experience. Influences from Kraut Rock emerge on the track ‘Trippin With The Birds', with Stereo Lab and Nurse With Wound contributing to this fusion. After switching labels to Groove, Otarion's latest album release is undoubtedly his best yet, kicking off our session.

En este episodio hablamos de algo que no suele aparecer en la agenda… pero que transforma equipos: las pausas con sentido. Exploramos el concepto sueco de Fika, una práctica simple pero poderosa: detenerte, reconectar y simplemente estar. Lejos de ser una pérdida de tiempo, fika es una fuente de energía, creatividad y conexión humana. Te comparto por qué incorporar estas pausas en el trabajo no solo mejora el bienestar, sino también la cultura organizacional. Verás cómo un café sin PowerPoint puede ser más valioso que una junta de una hora. También te doy 5 ideas creativas para llevar fika a tu día a día profesional. No importa si lideras un equipo, un proyecto o a ti mismo: esto es para ti. Porque hacer más no siempre es avanzar. Y a veces, lo más productivo… es detenerse. www.brigitteseumenicht.com

13 kaj 2025

Scandi lifestyle trends have been all the rage for a number of years now. Regular listeners may remember we've talked about Hygge and lagom on the show in the past. Well here's another one from Sweden. Fika is basically a short break with friends, family or colleagues sharing a moment together while enjoying a hot beverage. On the face of it, the concept might sound pretty mundane, but it's a real ritual which people across Sweden will tell you they can't go without! According to Visit Sweden, it's believed to come from the old spelling for coffee in Swedish, which was kaffi. Reverse the syllables of kaffi and you get fika. What does the word fika actually mean? Isn't it just a fancy coffee break? What's the best food option to go with fika? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Rome heeft het Colosseum, de Chinese Muur is al eeuwenlang een icoon in het Chinese landschap en tech-investeerder Don Ritzen (Shift) heeft de amibitie om een Nederlands duurzaam klimaatgebouw aan het lijstje van wereldwonderen toe te voegen: de Shift Landmark. "Architectuur heeft door de geschiedenis een enorme aantekking gehad op samenlevingen [...] het heeft een bepaalde functie waardoor mensen samen komen. Ik dacht van ja, wat als je nou die inspiratie kan inzetten voor het thema waar iedereen eigenlijk mee bezig is [duurzaamheid]?" Vanuit haar liefde voor haar moederland Zweden en het plezier dat ze beleeft aan het bakken van creaties uit het receptenboekje van haar moeder, startte de 20-jarige Charlie Ter Burg Charlie's Fika. "Ik wist dat ik iets met Zweden wilde doen en van daaruit ben ik gaan werken." Inmiddels is haar bedrijf uitgegroeid naar een leuk café in Den Haag. Warmtepompen zijn niets nieuws, maar de manier waarop Weheat ze inzet wel. Door huizen als batterij te gebruiken en slimme software de regie te laten voeren, biedt Weheat een betaalbaar én toekomstbestendig alternatief voor thuisaccu's. Het bedrijf won onlangs de Nationale Ondernemersprijs 2025. Oprichters Martijn van de Ven en Liselotte Graas vertelden bij Robert van den Ham hoe hun technologie werkt, wat het oplevert en waarom zelfs complete wijken ineens wél kunnen verduurzamen.

Pour ce 150 ème Bla Bla je vous invite à Strasbourg pour pousser la porte avec moi d'un nouveau café vélo que je découvre dans cette grande ville cyclable. Je retrouve Thomas et Jean-Baptiste qui se sont associés pour créer un lieu vélo particulièrement accueillant. Ils l'ont baptisé Åven (prononcez “oven”), qui est un terme suédois ramené en souvenir d'un séjour de fin d'études en Suède pour Thomas.Ces 2 passionnés ont choisi ce concept de « café nordique », alliant leur passion pour le vélo et le café que l'on retrouve un peu partout dans ce lieu. Thomas et Jean-Baptiste se sont rencontrés à Strasbourg et c'est là, dans cette ville où le vélo joue un rôle social important, qu'ils ont décidé de s'installer. Åven est ouvert depuis décembre 2023 et c'est déjà devenu le repaire d'une belle communauté de cyclistes. Après avoir failli monter chacun de leur côté leur propre affaire, ils ont choisi de s'associer plutôt que d'être concurrents. Parfaitement polyvalents ils se partagent les tâches entre l'atelier et la partie comptoir avec leur employé Arnaud.La boutique est située au 34 rue du Faubourg de Pierre, dans le quartier Poincaré un peu au nord du carré d'Or, pour ceux qui connaissent Strasbourg. L'ambiance du café est scandinave, soulignée par des choix de déco un peu vintage, comme cet ampli et sa platine Technics des années 80, qui assurent l'ambiance musicale. Le design est très étudié et chez Åven on soigne les petit détails qui décorent les murs blancs. On se sent ici comme chez soi, avec ce petit tapis en laine rouge, un vase posé sur une table et de belles pièces de vélo plutôt artisanales, posées par ici et là. L'atelier est là pour vos réparations, mais également pour un montage à la carte. L'ambiance c'est aussi les soirées qui s'animent avec le passage de groupes musicaux, des séance de dédicace d'ouvrages, des expos photos et le départ de rides organisés par des groupes cyclistes locaux qui ont fait de Åven leur camp de base …Le site : https://www.aven.bike/Instagram : http://instagram.com/aven.bikeFacebook : https://www.facebook.com/Aven.bike.fikaHébergé par Ausha.

"Fika" är ett svenskt ord som betyder att ta en paus för att dricka kaffe eller te och äta något gott, ofta tillsammans med andra. Den här veckan fikar vi i studion tillsammans med vår gäst, Maria Wennergren som driver företaget Marias söta i Vejbystrand som tillverkar chokladhantverk, bland annat praliner. Hon har tillverkat praliner till kungen, det gjorde hon inför firandet av hans 50-års vid tronen och det berättar hon i veckans podd. Ni kan titta på hennes skapelser och besöket i vår studio på vår facebook-sida.  Glöm inte att ni kan ge oss förslag på saker vi kan ta upp i vår podd genom att maila oss till: stridhhosfrasse@gmail.com

Daniel ist extra nach Schweden gereist, um einmal eine echte Fika zu erleben. Und dann mäkelt er ununterbrochen dran rum, obwohl es sich um die Feier zur Folge 500 von Der Letzte Podcast handelt! Es ist trotzdem ein Fest, denn neben Brobert am Fika-Tisch gesellen sich nacheinander auch der Kaffeemann, Saskia, Dr. Tobi Erdmann, Loorie Wutz und Patrick aus Hürth (diesmal aus Amerika) dazu. Smaklig måltid!

Vieler Filme in Göteborg und der ein oder anderen Fika zum Trotz, hat Daniel mit Brobert bis kurz vor seiner Rückreise noch für euch gepodcastet.

Welcome to Episode 27 of the HECHO Podcast, the podcast about what's now, and what's next in Corpus Christi and the Costal Bend. I'm your host Rob George, and our guest is Jeannette Del Angel, and if you ordered from Sucre during Covid (or since), or eaten at Central Kitchen, you've likely experienced her magic in the oven. Jeannette is a Corpus raised, Le Cordon Bleu trained, deeply experienced chef. Her primary expertise is pastry, and she created the menu for Central Kitchen. She is now starting her own adventure, Fika, an experience where one can relax with a pastry and espresso. “Fika” is a Swedish term that describes taking a break with friends, old and new. On this episode, we discuss Jeannette's journey away from and back to Corpus Christi with anecdotes from impressive stops along the way. We learn about how she impressed her French professor at UT with macaroons crafted in her dorm's basement kitchen, her delight in being called “chef” by her mentor at Southerleigh, and her passion for building a business around her family. Jeannette and Fika offer a unique vibe to the Coastal Bend—a Swedish twist on relaxing with friends. Please follow Fika on Instagram at @fika_microbakery and be sure to seize a moment for your own Fika at Jeannette's bakery on Alameda between the Quad Fitness Studio and Lavender & Lee.    If you want more of what's now, and what's next, in business and entertainment in Corpus Christi and the Coastal Bend, subscribe to the HECHO newsletter at hecho.cc and follow us @hechocorpus on Instagram.    Thank you Jeannette for coming on the show. Thank you to our infrastructure partners, Clint Tucker Homes and Sawyer Audiology. Thank you to Lucy George for her editing assistance. And thank you for taking time to listen!

Voici une tradition française qui nous semble intemporelle ! Trois ans après le premier confinement, la bise est une coutume qui revient peu à peu. Selon une étude de l'Ifop réalisée fin 2021, 91% des Français faisaient la bise pour saluer un proche avant la pandémie de Covid-19. Après le confinement, le chiffre chute à 29%. Aujourd'hui, 40% des Français déclarent se faire la bise pour se dire bonjour. En Occident, il faut remonter jusqu'à la Rome antique pour trouver les premières traces de la bise, qui s'appelait plutôt “le baiser”. Il en existe trois types, chacun sur la bouche. La distinction entre le baiser intime et celui de la salutation a rendu cette pratique assez connotée au Moyen Âge. Si l'on ajoute à cela l'avènement du catholicisme et l'omnipotence de l'Église, la bise a dû subir plusieurs transformations à cette période. D'où vient la bise ? Comment a-t-elle évolué au fil des siècles ? Pourquoi fait-elle partie de notre quotidien ? Écoutez la suite de cet épisode de "Maintenant vous savez".

Le 6 janvier, les chrétiens célèbrent L'Épiphanie. Une fête devenue culturelle et qui s'accompagne, en France, de la galette des rois. Comme vous le savez, on partage la galette et une fève se trouve à l'intérieur, celui ou celle qui la trouve est couronné(e) roi ou reine. Tout simplement parce que, à l'origine, c'est un haricot que l'on cachait dans la galette. Le haricot est remplacé au XIXè siècle par de la porcelaine pour éviter que le roi ou la reine ne s'étouffe en ingurgitant la fève. Au cours de l'histoire, les plus aisés ont parfois remplacé le haricot par une pièce d'or ou d'argent. Quant à la fève en porcelaine, elle est d'abord fabriquée en Saxe, en Allemagne, puis, après la première guerre mondiale, la production devient française à Limoges. Pourquoi on appelle ça une fève ? Depuis quand tire-t-on les rois ? Est-il vrai qu'il n'y a pas de fève dans les galettes de l'Elysée ? Écoutez la suite de cet épisode de "Maintenant vous savez".

Maintaining our balance whether we are holding a tree pose in yoga or riding a bicycle requires dynamic engagement. While the tree pose in yoga may look static, nope, it is actually dynamic as various muscles are engaged. Similarly and more visually obvious is riding a bicycle. We must remain in motion, and a motion that is balanced, so again engaging our motions to align with each other if there are multiple, in this case our two legs pedaling, to remain balanced. Balance in life involves a similar concept. We may not always look physically in motion, so for example, choosing time to just be, but we are engaged. We are present and consciously and purposefully engaging in an action or activity that nourishes our balance. In the first episode of the new year, I wanted to focus on this idea of balanced living as inspired by the book The Scandinavian Guide to Happiness: Balanced Living with Fika, Lagos, Hygge, and More by Tim Rayburn, because rather than focusing on adding or improving, why not focus on tweaking and putting more of a priority on savoring. The latter is what will improve the quality of our life in all arenas. So let's take a look at the list, and be sure to listen to the audio version for detailed conversation about each point.   Explore the Show Notes here on The Simply Luxurious Life blog - https://thesimplyluxuriouslife.com/podcast395 

C'est le moment des résolutions naissantes et des feux d'artifice, nous célébrons le Nouvel An ! Aujourd'hui, la Terre a commencé un nouveau tour complet du soleil. Il durera 365 jours, donc, jusqu'à l'année prochaine. C'est pour cette raison que le 1ᵉʳ janvier est appelé jour de l'an, même si ça n'a pas toujours été le cas.  En l'an 46, Jules César proclame le 1er janvier comme le premier jour de l'année, il marque ainsi l'avènement du calendrier julien, fondé sur le cycle solaire. En revanche, la généralisation du 1er janvier comme début de l'année survient plus tard, en 582, avec l'adoption du calendrier grégorien dans l'Europe catholique. Ce calendrier corrige l'écart accumulé par le calendrier julien, c'est ainsi qu'apparaissent les années bissextiles, ajoutant un jour tous les quatre ans. À quel moment le 1er janvier a-t-il été désigné comme le premier jour de l'année ? Et à l'échelle mondiale ? Un podcast Bababam Originals, écrit et réalisé par Joanne Bourdin.

This book is a blueprint for understanding how going on a pilgrimage will spiritually fulfill and, ultimately, transform you. Discover how this ancient practice can be traced through history and how it still plays a significant role in the many paths of faith today.

This week we're heading to Chicago to spend some time with Suzanne Karr Schmidt (PhD Yale) at The Newberry Library. Suzanne is their Curator of Rare Books and Manuscripts, she also researches for and creates exhibits, and helps lost books find their way back home. So, if you need a break from the holiday busyness curl up with a steaming mug, close your eyes and imagine a magical world where curiosity can be both inspired and sated, there is a portal that reaches back 5,000 years and contemplates the future, and most importantly has 27.5 miles of bookshelves. Fika will take you there, on this 100th episode. About the Newberry Library - Our collections, programs, and exhibitions are a portal to more than six centuries of human history, from the 15th century to the present. The Newberry welcomes anyone who is eager to learn about who we are, where we came from, and where we are going. Our community of learning includes historians, genealogists, visual and performing artists, writers, graphic designers, teachers, students, and many, many others. A Brief History of the Newberry Walter L. Newberry, a businessman and civic leader in Chicago who died in 1868, left a provision in his will calling for the creation of a “free public library.” Newberry was light on details. He couldn't predict how the library might best serve Chicago by the time it opened. As a result, Newberry staff shaped the institution around the needs of the city. To complement the Chicago Public Library, which had been established in 1872, the trustees decided to found a non-circulating reference library that would be free and open to the public. Before the Newberry opened in 1887, it had no collection to offer visitors. Walter Newberry's own book collection, which might have served as a foundation for the library, had been destroyed in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. And so the Newberry's first librarians grew the library's collection from the ground up. Today, the Newberry collection extends across 27.5 miles of shelving in the library stacks. And it's still growing. We acquire and preserve materials that represent a range of perspectives and experiences—including those that historically have been marginalized, misrepresented, or silenced. Learn more about the Newberry at - www.newberry.org About Suzanne Karr Schmidt PhD: Suzanne Karr Schmidt (PhD Yale) is the Curator of Rare Books and Manuscripts at Chicago's Newberry Library, where she adds books to the collection and curated exhibitions.

Au-delà de la tendance, ce sont aussi des pratiques qui relèvent du bon sens pour prendre soin de sa santé mentale et de son corps, dans des pays où le climat est très hostile pendant de longs mois. Voici une pratique bien-être à adopter dans le dur de l'hiver - cette fois, venue de Suède. Le fika ! Une petite parenthèse à partager avec ses collègues, sa famille ou ses amis, au bureau, à la maison ou en plein air, autour d'une boisson chaude ou d'un encas. Le mot fika est apparu au début du XX e siècle. Selon le linguiste Lars-Gunnar Andersson, c'est l'un des seuls exemples de verlan suédois. Kaffe, fika. Quel est ce concept ?

REPLAY !! Fika with Vicky welcomes back Author Landis Wade Date: Dece,ber 5th, 2024 Episode: 99 -Fika with Vicky's guest this week is Author Landis Wade. Please join us as Landis energizes our Christmas spirits with his The Christmas Courtroom Trilogy. Santa's existence is in good hands with this author. A retired trial lawyer, his experience brings a realism to the page that will pull in even non-believers. These witty, warm, and seasonal cozies, will go perfect with a hot chocolate or gingerbread tea latte. And I believe you might just find a new tradition to share with the whole family.

Our focus book this week is “Energy Magick: A Basic & Advance Guide for Witches & Pagans.” But I think it's also for anyone who believes that the world is interconnected, that everything holds energy, and Is looking for a way to incorporate those things into their lives. Has your attention span shrunk? Do you start to wilt everytime a certain person walks into a room? Do you feel there is so much more you could be reaching out to? “Energy Magick,” will provide exercises to aid you. It's a toolbox in a book. In fact, I've come to think of it as “the little book,” much like ”The Elements of Style” only for energy instead of grammar. So please join us for episode 97, as we discuss the possibilities and realities of “Energy Magick.” Mark NeCamp, Jr. is an author, poet, teacher, public speaker, entrepreneur, spiritual alchemist, and modern day student and practitioner of the Art. He teaches classes using magick as a tool for personal growth. He is passionate for how we each can, through the alchemical process, turn our spiritual lead into gold as individuals and as a global community. He is the author of the book Energy Magick, by Moon Books Publishing. He is the executive director of The Invisible College- a non-profit created to support the Pagan, Heathen, Witchcraft, and Occult communities through the creation of social, financial and educational resources. Ten percent of all of his book royalties go to the Invisible College with half of that going directly to women's shelters, circles, and other non-profits directly affecting the health, well being and support of women. Mark is also a horror movie fanatic- having been the “occult adviser” on at least one indie horror film- and enjoys cemetery walks/picnics, talking to the dead, listening to music, cooking/baking, and drinking wine or homemade absinthe at the witching hour while musing on magick or reading something dark and fun (and why is that often Poe). More About Mark: https://marknecampjr.com/ About Energy Magik Energy magick is a way of practicing magick without physical tools by directly manipulating the energy that connects all things, and it is the basis for reality. Here, the energy of magick, spells, and rituals will be moved directly with our hands, minds, and will as your body will be the medium through which magick happens and flows. Learn how to manipulate magickal and psychic energy for empowerment and protection. Create advanced shields and artificial spirits to aid you. Invoke and evoke spirits and gods directly. Master healing work of the chakras and the energetic body. Discover and refine energetic cord cutting, decode and create your own magickal sigils, journey to other worlds to gain spiritual allies, and much more.

This week, Fika with Vicky asks the question…an isolated island and an old cottage…what could go wrong? I can't tell you that, because of spoilers, but I can tell you what could go right. Jeff (J.C.) Vande Zande. An Author, Poet, Screenwriter and Filmmaker, Jeff has an eclectic and engaging collection of work. In this episode, we'll be focusing on his first Horror novel, “The Dance of Rotten Sticks,” There's a lot to embrace in this work, but I especially found the dialogue within family relationships authentic. And of course, when there are children involved, it makes everything much more intense. I want to say this would be a great book to take on vacation and read by the side of a lake for the atmosphere, but on the other hand, it may send you back to the mainland sooner than you planned. Safety first! Please join us, as we look into this new campfire tale offering, “The Dance of Rotten Sticks.” It's a wonderfully worthy addition to this fine tradition, and hopefully has sparked more such stories from Jeff Vande Sande. About The Dance of Rotten Sticks:- The Dance of Rotten Sticks tells the story of Isaac Fletcher, a recent widower struggling to raise three kids after losing his wife to a bizarre car accident. His mother-in-law, aware of Isaac's drinking problem, threatens to take the kids. Hoping to become the father they need him to be, Isaac takes the family to their recently-purchased vacation property on Orphan Island. Strange incidents occur, culminating in their discovery of an abandoned orphanage that some say is haunted. Isaac's youngest begins to hear voices. His eldest has horrific dreams of their dead mother. Only Emily seems to thrive, beguiling Isaac to the true danger that she faces from the island's other inhabitants. About Jeff- Jeff Vande Zande teaches fiction writing, screenwriting, and film production at Delta College in Michigan. His award-winning short films have been accepted over 200 times in national and international film festivals. His books of fiction include the story collections Emergency Stopping (Bottom Dog Press) and Threatened Species (Whistling Shade Press). His novels include Into the Desperate Country (March Street Press), Landscape with Fragmented Figures (Bottom Dog Press), American Poet (Bottom Dog Press) and Detroit Muscle (Whistling Shade Press). In 2012, American Poet won a Michigan Notable Book Award from the Library of Michigan. In 2020, Whistling Shade Press released his collection, The Neighborhood Division: Stories, and in 2022 Montag Press released his novel, Rules of Order. The Dance of Rotten Sticks (Montag Press, 2024) is his first foray into the horror genre. He maintains a blog at www.authorjeffvandezande.blogspot.com.

This week Fika with Vicky is welcoming Author Janice Barrett back, and there's a lot to talk about. You'll remember Janice visited with her first novel Authorized Cruelty last September, and I was blown away by it. Once again, with Cash for Life, I found myself looking for something to hold on to. My stomach churned while the plot sped, suddenly took corners, and picked up even more momentum as the ending grew closer. What does justice mean to you? Is there one justice for the mean streets…another for the picture perfect suburbs? And where does love, loyalty, and gratitude fit in? About Cash for Life - Lies and guarded secrets dominate Jackie's life, from age eleven, when Gino rescues her from an orphanage. Mother had warned her that Gino was a hoodlum. Jackie learns that everything has a price. He needs her home and she needs him. Gino, a likable drug dealer, teaches her, “Blood ain't about DNA, it's about sharin' a life.” When Jackie is an adult, Gino marries Paula, a coke-snorting opportunist. Motivated by greed, Paula kills Gino and claims it is self-defence. It's a lie. Raised on street justice, Jackie knows Paula must pay. Vengeance is what Gino expects and deserves. Manipulation, deceit, and fraud twist the ugly truth into a tragic reality as both women bait the police knowing one of them will be sent to prison. About Janice Barret - Janice is a proud mother of three. She worked at the Unemployment Insurance Office in Hamilton from 1973-1988 at which time she became a stay-at-home mom. She was a freelance journalist for The Weekend Focus and The Grimsby Independent newspaper where she was given her own column. An article she wrote for The Ottawa Citizen garnered attention from the producer of W5 who invited her to be a guest on their show, which she declined. She was the opening act for Coast to Coast Canada's Tenacious Literary Series held at The Laura Secord Homestead. She gave a seminar on How to Write a Memoir at The Niagara Falls Literary Festival. The first play she wrote, Dearly Departed, won a playwright contest where she was paid and a snippet of her play was performed at The Essential Collective Theatre. That afforded her an interview at The Tarragon Theatre. Her first historical fiction, Authorized Cruelty was published on October/1st/2023. You can find Janice at her publisher's website: Blue Denim Press: www.bluedenimpress.com, Or her website: www.janicebarrett.ca

Fika With Vicky - Author Thea Prothero - A Guide To Pilgrimage & Ghost Stories Description - Fika with Vicky has her hiking boots and walking stick ready, as she welcomes Author Thea Prothero and her work “ A Guide to Pilgrimage,” which will be launching November 1st. Thea takes us on a journey throughout the world and history, as she describes pilgrimages from various belief systems and intentions, which will leave you inspired to make your own. And if that's not enough, she has a Stubstack which lists possible spots for pilgrims to explore. And those in North America are not forgotten, as the Appalachian Trail and Joggins Fossil Cliffs in Nova Scotia are both mentioned. And if even that is not enough, Thea also writes ghost stories. And since it is Halloween, she has agreed to read some to us. Hmmm…maybe she should change those hiking boots to running shoes. A quick escape may be needed.

With AI enabling copycat products to be brought to market incredibly quickly, the ability to scale and find unique distribution is the new moat. Arteen explains distribution lessons learned and much more from his vantage as Fika's returning partner.

Vi är sponsrade av Toyota Yaris cross och då kom vi på den briljanta idén-vi tar en roadtrip och spelar in podden i bilen. Vi kommer in på bilminnen bla en grej som hände Malin… om man vill hämnas på sin kille säljer man då hans bil? Och sen historien med frisören. Och hur var Jessica upplevelse när hon som barn bilade till Europa i en liten bil utan vare sig AC eller Gps, och apropå GPS, är den en funktion som Malin bemästrar? Detta och mycket mer, lyssna det blir kul. Klipps av Victor Ganguly Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
