Lo primero es antes. Ahí va el enlace con un resumen de algunas de las fotografías remitidas por los oyentes a lo largo de todos estos meses. Y ojo, porque la dirección plazapublica@rtrm.es sigue estando disponible permanentemente para lo que sea menester.En el capítulo de concursos, hemos seleccionado este de Oppo, y este otro patrocinado por Iberdrola. También les llamamos la atención sobre la exposición "Susaña" que abrió sus puertas en el Museo Arqueológico de Murcia el pasado 26 de junio.En cuando a aplicaciones para el teléfono móvil, nos quedamos esta semana con Lens Distortions.Y cumpliendo con nuestro compromiso, concretamos la información en cuanto a qué es "fotografía consciente".Por último, no podíamos despedir el programa sin un reto, una tarea que, en este caso, es para todo el verano. Y procedemos a la inversa. Nosotros damos el título y los oyentes ponen la imagen. Y el título es: "Es gris". Hala. A darle vueltas a la cabeza y a apretar el disparador de nuestro teléfono móvil.

Už víc než dva roky jezdí Daria Stomatová na Ukrajinu dokumentovat válku. V rozhovoru pro podcast Men's Factor mluvila otevřeně o životě na frontě, nebezpečí, dronové válce, emocích i důležitosti nestranného zpravodajství. Přiznává, že válečné zkušenosti změnily její hodnoty i pohled na svět.„Vždycky říkám, že na Ukrajině nebojuju za Rusko ani za Ukrajinu. Bojuju za to, aby Češi měli přehled. Aby moje reportáže byly co nejobjektivnější a nejméně poplatné komukoliv,“ říká reportérka České televize. Stomatová detailně popisuje, jak se proměnila podoba války. Zatímco v prvních dnech po ruské invazi byly největší hrozbou raketomety a přímé boje, dnes frontu ovládly drony. „Dnes je válka nefyzická. Vojáci se téměř nepotkávají. 70 až 80 % obětí způsobují právě drony,“ říká s tím, že stroje už nejsou jen ovládané, ale často i autonomní – naváděné na jakýkoliv pohyb.Práce válečné reportérky má i své psychické náklady. „Začínám mít problém udržet slzy. Dlouho jsem se snažila držet odstup, ale čím déle to trvá, tím víc se mě to dotýká.“ Zároveň přiznává, že v Česku chybí specialisté, kteří by novinářům pomohli zpracovat trauma z krizových oblastí. „Je tu zoufale málo psychologů, kteří rozumí válce.“Kromě každodenního stresu a smrti se ale musí potýkat i s dezinformacemi. „Informační válka probíhá na obou stranách. O to důležitější je, aby tam byli nezávislí novináři,“ vysvětluje. Sama podle svých slov nikdy nezatajila informace, které se nehodily ukrajinské straně. „Když jsme reportovali o problémech s alkoholem v armádě nebo o korupci, věděla jsem, že to nebude populární. Ale bylo správné to říct nahlas.“Západní veřejnost si podle ní na válku už zvykla. „Válka už není in. Lidi to přestává zajímat. Ale to neznamená, že ji můžeme ignorovat. Týká se nás všech – i po svém konci bude měnit svět kolem nás.“Do budoucna ví, že jednou bude muset práci v konfliktní zóně opustit. „Nejde to dělat věčně. Ale zatím nevím, co bych dělala jiného. Ta válka je součást mého života. Dokud budu moct, budu reportovat.“

CherryPop welcomes Abigail Cowen (Fate: The Winx Saga, Redeeming Love) to the podcast, who stars in two films out now.  First up, Meg and Abigail dive into the wild and colorful world of Electra by the brilliant and vibrant mind of first-time feature film director Hala Matar. Cowen fondly talks about working with Hala and her love and appreciation for the passion and creative collaboration born out of independent filmmaking.  “I wanted to act since I was like nine years old, and I never really got the opportunity, because I was in a small town in Florida that didn't have many theater opportunities or anything like that. I grew up on a farm, so I spent a lot of time outside making up stories. I've just always been fascinated by people and their stories—and understanding why people do what they do—and I think that's why I do what I do, and why I love it. It's been a passion of mine since I was very, very young.” -Abigail Cowen  Next, the two discuss Cowen's powerful and physical work in The Ritual. In this horror film based on true events, she plays Emma Schmidt, a young woman undergoing multiple exorcisms alongside Hollywood legend Al Pacino. In addition, Abigail and Meg share their dislike of mornings, the need for better dreams, and an undying love for storytelling.  “I really have enjoyed doing these smaller independent films, because it's a smaller crew. You have your director, who is usually also the writer. If you have an idea, you can throw it at them, and if they say no, they say no; if they like it, you can change it on the day in the moment. And having that smaller cast too to really hone in and collaborate with has been so fun for me, and so creatively fulfilling. [...] there is an air and just an energy on a set where everyone is on the same page, everyone is working the same amount and cares the same amount, which I've really fallen in love with.” - Abigail Cowen  Electra is available on demand and you can watch The Ritual out now in theaters.  CherryPicks is the best place to see what women think about movies, tv, and more.

La guerre à Gaza est notamment subie par les enfants palestiniens, population qui représente la moitié des Gazaouis et à laquelle s'intéresse Politis cette semaine, avec ce titre « l'Enfance assassinée ».Il y a d'abord ce témoignage de Bilal, 15 ans. « Le jeune garçon est trop maigre pour son âge. Trop fatigué également. Parce que les adolescents sont considérés comme plus agiles, plus résistants, chaque jour, ils parcourent des kilomètres au milieu des tentes et des ruines pour trouver des aliments, de l'eau ou de quoi faire du feu. » La survie a désormais totalement pris le pas sur l'éducation dans ce territoire où le taux d'analphabétisme était déjà parmi les plus faibles au monde avant la guerre : autour de 2 %, selon l'Unicef. Depuis, neuf écoles sur dix ont été rayées de la carte, soupire Politis. « Un éducide », enchérit le chercheur Ziad Majed, pour qui les attaques israéliennes montrent une volonté d'en finir avec le système éducatif. « On m'a volé ma vie », souffle Rihab, 15 ans également, qui rêvait d'université.« On m'a volé cette joie » fulmine pour sa part Hala dans le dossier du Point intitulé « Où va Israël ? » et qui revient aussi sur le sort des Gazaouis. À 23 ans, la jeune femme a fini par obtenir une licence de littérature sous les bombes,« et remplit ses journées de lecture, d'écriture et de musique pour ne pas sombrer ».La « guerre sans fin » de Benyamin NetanyahouLe Point grogne devant cette « fuite en avant personnelle » de Benyamin Netanyahou, le premier ministre israélien s'enfermant dans une réalité parallèle, pensant ainsi qu' « une majorité immense [d'Israéliens] dit, Bibi n'arrêtez pas! », alors que la population rejette grandement la politique de son gouvernement. « Les sondages qui donnent sa coalition perdante au prochain scrutin ? Truqués et fabriqués de toutes pièces. »Interrogé par l'hebdo, l'ancien chef des renseignements de l'armée israélienne Tamir Hayman confie que « l'idée d'une victoire totale est illusoire ». « Sur le plan politique, explique-t-il, la raison pour laquelle l'exécutif ne veut pas la fin de la guerre, c'est qu'elle entrainera l'organisation de nouvelles élections qui aboutiront à la chute de la coalition gouvernementale de Benyamin Netanyahou. »Emmanuel Macron prend de la distance avec la politique d'Israël à GazaUne « trajectoire sinueuse » tracée par le président français que raconte Le Nouvel Obs avec notamment cette infographie qui tente d'établir une corrélation entre l'évolution du discours d'Emmanuel Macron sur ce conflit et celle du nombre de morts à Gaza.« Il sert du "dear Bibi" », (cher Bibi), cher Benyamin Netanyahou donc, « alors que 6 000 personnes ont déjà été tuées à Gaza », puis évoque une coalition anti-Hamas « dont il n'a parlé à personne ». Des ambassadeurs français dénoncent dans une note interne « le virage pro-israélien du président. »Puis la sémantique change à l'autonome dernier. Emmanuel Macron prend aussi conscience qu'une reconnaissance de l'État de Palestine lui « permettrait de laisser une trace dans l'Histoire ». Désormais, « il s'est engagé trop loin pour reculer, estime le chercheur Jean-Paul Chagnoleau, si la séquence qu'il a enclenchée n'aboutit pas, sa parole disparaitra. »La protection des océans, sujet de préoccupation internationaleAvec l'ouverture lundi de la conférence des Nations unies sur l'océan à Nice, Emmanuel Macron lance un appel à la « remobilisation sur l'écologie » dans plusieurs titres, dont Le Parisien Dimanche. Le dirigeant français « a connu des marées hautes et des marées basses », tente le journal de la capitale, mais estime « ne pas avoir de leçon d'écologie à recevoir. »Dans le sud-est de la France, « entouré d'une cinquantaine de chef d'États, il n'y en a jamais eu autant se félicite-t-il », il ratifiera un texte sur l'interdiction de la pêche illégale, et plaidera pour un renforcement des aires marines protégées et un moratoire d'exploitation des grands fonds marins.Des abysses convoitésLe Nouvel Obs part d'un exemple, celui de Gerard Barron, « sulfureux chef d'entreprise australien » à la tête d'un empire minier. Pour le « Elon Musk des abysses » comme il est surnommé, « l'horizon s'est subitement éclairci avec l'arrivée au pouvoir de Donald Trump », le président américain ayant signé en mars un décret autorisant l'extraction de minéraux jusque dans les eaux internationales.C'est même « une nouvelle ruée vers l'or », jubile une agence aux mains de l'administration Trump, qui pourrait doper le PIB de 300 milliards de dollars et créer 100 000 emplois en 10 ans. Également intéressée, « la Chine multiplie aussi les campagnes exploratoires dans le Pacifique », souligne l'Express qui dédie aussi ses pages Géopolitique à la « guerre des abysses. »« Un terrain qui par son opacité favorise les modes d'actions offensifs » décrypte encore l'Express, notant que l'armée de la France, pays « qui possède l'un des plus grands domaines maritimes avec ses territoires d'outre-mer », se dote d'outils de surveillance de pointe, comme ce drone pouvant plonger à 6 000 mètres de profondeur.Inquiétude des défenseurs de l'environnementSauf l'exploitation du cobalt, cuivre et autres manganèses sous-marins, ce n'est « pas sûr que Mère Nature s'en réjouisse » grince Le Nouvel Obs. L'océan joue « un rôle crucial de régulation du climat », avec un quart de nos émissions de CO2 captées chaque année.Le chercheur Bruno David craint qu'« une fois remués, les sédiments qui tapissent les fonds des mers ne relarguent dans l'atmosphère le CO2 stocké ». Sans oublier la « vie foisonnante » abritée par les fonds marins et qui risque d'être grandement perturbée.

Marketing and social media weren't part of Kelly Roach's world when she grew up just above the poverty line in rural Pennsylvania. She cleaned toilets to pay for dance lessons and learned early that hustle trumps circumstance. That same grit propelled her from an entry-level sales desk to the youngest vice president at her Fortune 500 company in just eight years, landing the “impossible” accounts her peers had chased for years. Instead of settling, she rose at 5 a.m. to build a coaching side hustle that became an eight-figure enterprise guiding founders from six to seven figures. In this episode, Kelly unpacks her five-step Conviction Marketing framework and three-tier pyramid that turns ordinary how-to content into a category-of-one brand.
