Last time we spoke about the battle of Malacca strait. In the intense Battle of the Malacca Strait, Japanese forces undertook a desperate evacuation amidst relentless attacks by the Allies. After suffering heavy casualties from previous confrontations, the Japanese regrouped and attempted to maintain their defensive positions. However, under the pressure of determined Allied assaults and strategic maneuvers, they faced increasingly fierce resistance. As the Allies advanced, they successfully overwhelmed Japanese defenses, leading to significant losses for the opposing forces. The battle transformed into a pivotal moment in the Pacific War as Japanese resistance crumbled, ultimately shifting the tide toward Allied victory. This clash not only showcased the harsh realities of war but also underscored the relentless determination of both sides as they fought for dominance in the region, marking a crucial step towards the conclusion of the conflict.

On May 16, the offensive continued. Colonel Schneider's 22nd Marines and Colonel Whaling's 29th Marines launched yet another unsuccessful assault on Sugar Loaf Hill, while Colonel Snedeker's 7th Marines exhausted their strength in a failed attempt to seize Wana Ridge. To the east, Colonel Coolidge's 305th Regiment advanced 200 yards closer to Shuri. Colonel Hamilton's 307th Regiment nearly captured Flattop and Chocolate Drop Hill but was ultimately pushed back. Colonel Dill's 382nd Regiment successfully cleared Dick Hill but came under intense fire from Oboe Hill. Meanwhile, Colonel May's 383rd Regiment made only minor gains on the southeastern slopes of Conical Hill and Love Hill, even as tanks broke through toward Yonabaru for the first time. The following day, the 383rd Regiment maintained pressure on Conical and Love Hills, prompting General Bradley to commit part of Colonel Halloran's 381st Regiment to the attack. To the west, the 382nd Regiment staged a hard-fought advance of 200 yards but was unable to capture Oboe Hill.  Slowly the 77th Division forces between Flattop and Route 5 were reducing enemy positions bearing on the area in front of the 307th Infantry. By 17 May this progress began to show in the advances of the foot troops around Chocolate Drop. Covered by company heavy weapons out on both flanks, infantrymen worked around both sides of the hill to the huge caves on the reverse slope. Inside were 4 antitank guns, 1 field piece, 4 machine guns, 4 heavy mortars, and a American 60-mm. mortars. By nightfall the caves had been partially sealed off. During the night an enemy force launched a counterattack against the American positions around the hill but was repulsed with the loss of twenty-five Japanese killed. On the 17th another bitter struggle raged on Flattop. The struggle swayed back and forth across the narrow crest of the hill. Company K, the assaulting unit, had been reduced to fourteen infantrymen by the end of the day; finally it was forced back off the top. Tanks tried to go through the road cut between Flattop and Dick Hill, but two of them were disabled by mines, leaving the cut blocked. The road cut was later blown along its entire length by seven tons of bangalore torpedoes to remove the mines. Company E continued to push toward Ishimmi Ridge, where they faced a series of heavy Japanese counterattacks. Coolidge's 3rd Battalion and the rest of Hamilton's 2nd Battalion dug in just a few hundred yards north of Shuri and Ishimmi in the highway valley. Meanwhile, Coolidge's 1st Battalion was halted by heavy fire from 110 Meter Hill and the extensive fortress houses in Shuri's suburbs. The intense fighting had nearly depleted the 22nd Regiment, prompting General Amamiya to direct the 32nd Regiment to take over the defense of Shuri along a line extending from Ishimmi to Oboe. Meanwhile, on Wana, the 7th Marines launched a renewed attack but were once again repelled. However, the 5th Marines succeeded in advancing to Hill 55. Further west, the bulk of the 29th Marines attacked toward Half Moon Hill, successfully reaching its forward slopes but later having to withdraw to more defensive positions overnight. Whaling's 2nd Battalion also mounted relentless assaults on Sugar Loaf, each time suffering heavy losses in repelled attacks. As dusk fell, Japanese planes targeted American shipping, successfully damaging the destroyer Douglas H. Fox. On May 18, tanks played a crucial role in a successful assault on Sugar Loaf, executing a double envelopment while securing the top of the hill. The 2nd Battalion then advanced to Horseshoe Hill, while the remainder of the 29th Marines managed to secure the forward slopes of Half Moon.After a night of sporadic bombardment from enemy artillery and mortars, 3/7 again attempted to gain a foothold on Wana Ridge. During the morning supporting weapons concentrated their fire on the forward slopes and crest of the objective and at noon Company I, followed by a platoon of Company L, jumped off and fought its way to the ridge. The assault troops' gains "were measured in yards won, lost, and then won again." Finally, mounting casualties inflicted by enemy grenade and mortar fire forced Lieutenant Colonel Hurst to pull back his forward elements and consolidate his lines on positions held the previous night. On the right flank of the division front the isolated platoon from Company E of 2/5 was unsuccessful in exploiting its hold on the western slopes of Hill 55. The men were driven to cover by intense enemy fire, and tanks again had to be called upon to supply ammunition and rations to the outpost. During the morning operations the 5th Marines laid protective fire with tanks and assault guns along Wana Ridge to support 3/7's advance. At noon, under cover of this fire, Company F sent one rifle platoon and an attached platoon of engineers into Wana village to use flame throwers and demolitions against the enemy firing positions in the ruins. Numbers of grenade dischargers, machine guns, and rifles were found in Wana and the tombs behind it and destroyed. Further advance into the draw was not feasible until the 7th Marines could occupy the high ground on the eastern end of the ridge and furnish direct supporting fire to troops advancing in the draw below. At 1700 the troops were ordered to return to their lines for the night. n the center, General Bruce pressed his attack deeper into the Shuri defenses, with Coolidge's 3rd Battalion gaining 150 yards along the Ginowan-Shuri highway and Hamilton's 2nd Battalion advancing up to 300 yards toward Ishimmi, although attacks against 110 Meter Hill and Flattop failed to gain ground. On the morning of 18 May, orders were given to stay at all costs. Lieutenant Bell said firmly, "We stay." The men resigned themselves to a last-ditch stand. Their grenades exhausted and their machine guns and mortars destroyed, the remaining men salvaged every clip of ammunition from the bandoleers of the dead. Spare workable rifles were loaded and bayonets laid alongside. Enemy pressure increased steadily during the day. Some Americans were shot at close range as they darted from hole to hole to escape grenades. At one time eight knee mortars were pounding the ridge, firing in pairs. Friendly artillery could to some extent keep off the charging Japanese but seemed unable to ferret out the enemy mortars, which were well protected. The moans of wounded men, many of whom were in pitiful condition from lack of water and of medical aid, added to the strain. All canteens had been emptied the previous night. Nevertheless, battle discipline remained excellent. The worst problem concerned the replacements, who were courageous but inexperienced. Thrust suddenly into a desperate situation, some of them failed at crucial moments. One man saw two Japanese attacking a sergeant thirty feet away, but his finger froze on the trigger. Another shouted wildly for a comrade to shoot some Japanese while his own rifle lay in his hands. Another saw an enemy soldier a few yards from his hole, pulled the trigger, and discovered that he had forgotten to reload. By the end of the ordeal, however, the replacements who survived were battle-hardened veterans. During the afternoon the 307th attempted to reinforce the small group. Elements of Company C tried to cross the open ground north of Ishimmi Ridge. Only the commander and five men reached Company E. The men scrambled safely into foxholes, but the commander, shot through the head while racing toward the command post, fell dead on the parapet of the command post foxhole. Spirits rose considerably when word came later in the afternoon that a litter-bearing unit of eighty men would try to get through in the evening. Enemy fire slackened after dark, and the first of the litter bearers arrived at about 2200. They immediately started back carrying casualties. Walking wounded accompanied them. The litter bearers moved swiftly and managed to avoid being seen in the light of flares. Through splendid discipline and good luck eighteen men were carried out in two and a half hours, and others walked out. The litter teams had brought some water and ammunition and the troops drank for the first time since the day before. The second sleepless night on the ridge passed. The 382nd Regiment continued to face heavy resistance from Oboe Hill but managed to secure the road cut between Flattop and Dick Hill. Meanwhile, Halloran's 3rd Battalion could only push about 400 yards south due to the relentless mortar and small-arms fire coming from Hogback Ridge. At sea, a low-flying kamikaze aircraft struck LST-808 off Iejima, resulting in the deaths of 17 men. The following day, while the 382nd and 383rd Regiments focused on neutralizing the cave positions and gun emplacements in the uneven terrain between Conical and Dick Hills, Halloran's 3rd Battalion launched an attack to the south and west toward Sugar Hill but made little progress due to the heavy defensive fire. In the center, the 307th Regiment systematically worked to eliminate enemy firing positions on the high ground in front of them, employing every available weapon for the task. Colonel Smith's rehabilitated 306th Regiment began moving up to replace the battered 305th, with its 3rd Battalion relieving Coolidge's 3rd Battalion and portions of Hamilton's 2nd Battalion along the low ground bordering the highway to Shuri, including the isolated men at Ishimmi Ridge.  On 19 May the enemy seemed to intensify his efforts to recapture Ishimmi Ridge. The besieged troops wondered whether his supply of men and ammunition was inexhaustible. The Japanese launched several attacks which were repulsed with great difficulty. Only the support of artillery and mortars, together with self-propelled mounts firing with precision on both flanks of Ishimmi Ridge, prevented the enemy from making an attack in strength which would have overrun the American positions. One enemy attack of platoon strength was dispersed by mortar and machine-gun fire and by a four-battalion time-on-target artillery concentration. Japanese mortar fire continued to fall on Ishimmi, however, and took its toll during the day. A message arrived during the morning that Company E would be relieved that evening. By noon the radio had become so weak that further communication with the company was impossible. The day wore slowly on. By 2100 there was still no sign of the relief. Shortly afterward, however, rifle fire intensified to the rear, a sign of activity there. At 2200 Company L, 3d Battalion, 306th Infantry, arrived. The relief was carried out in pitch darkness; each member of Company E left as soon as a replacement reached his position. As the haggard survivors were about to descend the ridge at 0300, a bursting shell hit two of the newcomers; one of them had to be evacuated on a poncho. Carrying its own wounded, Company E followed a white tape to the rear and arrived safely. Of the 204 officers and men of the reinforced company that had made the night attack on Ishimmi, 156 had been killed or wounded. There were 28 privates, 1 noncommissioned officer, and 2 officers left of the original 129 members of Company E. The platoon sent in relief by Company C had gone out with 58 effectives and returned with 13. Of the 17 men in the heavy weapons section only 4 came back. Company E had spearheaded a several-hundred-yard advance toward Shuri, however, and with the help of supporting weapons had killed hundreds of Japanese around Ishimmi. The 7th Marines launched one last unsuccessful assault on Wana Ridge before being relieved by Colonel Mason's rested 1st Marines. Meanwhile, after repelling a strong night counterattack, the exhausted 29th Marines were also relieved by Colonel Shapley's reserve 4th Marines, which made additional advances alongside the 22nd Marines, now under Colonel Harold Roberts. Four new regiments had been committed over the past few days to revitalize the offensive. On May 20, Shapley's assault battalions gained more ground on Horseshoe Hill but were still unable to reach the crest of Half Moon, though they successfully repelled another strong night counterattack. To the east, Mason's 2nd Battalion advanced rapidly to the base of 110 Meter Hill and captured part of Wana Ridge, while his 3rd Battalion secured a firm hold on the northern slope. Concurrently, the 5th Marines attacked southwest along the Naha-Shuri Road and successfully captured the high ground. Meanwhile, in coordination with the 1st Marines, Coolidge's 1st Battalion and Smith's 3rd Battalion made a slow, grinding advance of about 150 yards, positioning themselves within 200 yards of the outskirts of Shuri in the highway valley. At the same time, the 382nd Regiment expanded its hold on the reverse slope of Dick Hill but remained unable to penetrate Oboe Hill. The 307th Regiment consolidated and expanded its positions around Chocolate Drop, finally seizing Flattop. Reducing the tiny hill continued to be ticklish work because enemy positions to the south still overlooked the area. The fighting was still so confused that three wounded Americans lay south of Chocolate Drop for two days before relief arrived. By that time two had died and the third was so delirious that he thought he was still fighting Japanese and had to be forcibly subdued. By 20 May the caves were completely sealed off. The enemy made a final attempt to retake Chocolate Drop, attacking in company strength, but was repelled with the loss of half his force. On the same day the 3d Battalion, using tanks, flame throwers, and demolition teams, finally secured the crest of Flattop. The final American attack started with a saturation shower of grenades. A chain of men extending from the base of Flattop passed hand grenades to the troops lined up along the crest, who threw the missiles as fast as they could pull out the pins. Having seized the advantage, the infantry moved down the reverse slope blasting caves with satchel charges and flame throwers. Tanks along the road cut accounted for many of the Japanese. BY 1545 Flattop had fallen. More than 250 enemy bodies lay on the crest and reverse slope of the hill. Further east, Halloran's 3rd Battalion made a slow but steady advance down the eastern slopes of Hogback, reaching the foot of Sugar Hill despite constant grenade duels with an enemy fighting desperately to hold every inch of ground. Additionally, the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the 383rd Regiment fought their way to jump-off positions within 300 yards of Love Hill, destroying enemy strongpoints that had obstructed their advance for a week. Meanwhile, back at sea, Japanese aircraft managed to damage two destroyers and three transports. The following day, the 383rd again attacked Love Hill but was ultimately forced to withdraw from its base due to fierce defensive fire. Despite this setback, May's 2nd Battalion successfully supported the 381st Regiment in clearing Hogback and pushing to the top of Sugar Hill. To the west, the 382nd advanced quickly against moderate opposition toward Oboe Hill and Hen Hill, encountering retreating enemy units moving toward the high ground at Shuri. Concurrently, the 307th pushed 350 yards south of Flattop before being halted by enemy forces at the Three Sisters, while the 306th completed the relief of the 305th, with its 3rd Battalion advancing 200 yards unopposed to the eastern slopes of 110 Meter Hill. Meanwhile, the 1st Marines continued their assault along Wana Ridge, making only limited gains at the Draw, where the 5th Marines held out and aggressively patrolled forward. The 4th Marines began their push toward the Asato River, achieving a costly advance of about 200 yards on Horseshoe. By nightfall, heavy rains began to fall, significantly impeding efforts to resupply assault troops and replenish forward ammunition dumps. Amidst this torrential downpour on May 22, Shapley's 1st and 3rd Battalions slogged through the "gooey slick mud" to reach the bank of the rain-swollen river. This prompted the Japanese to evacuate Naha and establish new defensive positions on the Kokuba Hills. To the east, the continuous rain flooded Wana Draw with mud and water, transforming it into a makeshift lake. For the next few days, General Del Valle's Marines were forced to attack without support, leading to aggressive patrolling rather than organized assaults. The prospects of success for the infantry alone, slogging through the mud without the support of other arms, were not encouraging. Tanks bogged down, helplessly mired. Amphibian tractors were unable to negotiate the morass, and front-line units, which had depended on these vehicles for carrying supplies forward in bad weather, now had to resort to hand carrying of supplies and of the wounded. These were back breaking tasks and were performed over areas swept by enemy fire. Mortar and artillery smoke was used as far as possible to give concealment for all movement. Litter cases were carried back through knee-deep mud. Living conditions of front-line troops were indescribably bad. Foxholes dug into the clay slopes caved in from the constant soaking, and, even when the sides held, the holes had to be bailed out repeatedly. Clothes and equipment and the men's bodies were wet for days. The bodies of Japanese killed at night lay outside the foxholes, decomposing under swarms of flies. Sanitation measures broke down. The troops were often hungry. Sleep was almost impossible. The strain began to take a mounting toll of men. Under these conditions the Marine attack against Wana Ridge was soon at a standstill. The action degenerated into what was called in official reports "aggressive patrolling." Despite inactivity, enemy mortar and artillery fire continued to play against the American front lines, especially at dusk and at night. In the center, Bruce's 77th Division faced similar challenges, with the 306th Regiment stalled and the 307th Regiment again unsuccessfully attacking the Three Sisters. There, Company A became isolated at the base of the forward slope of Jane Hill, nearly cut off by intense enemy mortar and machine-gun fire. For the following week, the 382nd Regiment struggled to make headway on Hen and Oboe Hills, where fierce hand-to-hand combat erupted. Similarly, all attempts by the 383rd Regiment to breach the defenses of Love Hill on the western side of Conical failed, as the 381st was also unable to make any progress against Cutaway. General Hodge had also moved General Arnold's rehabilitated 7th Division to assembly areas just north of Conical Hill to spearhead the advance toward Yonabaru and the high ground south of the village. Strengthened by 1,691 replacements and 546 men returned to duty from hospitals since it left the lines on 9 May, the 7th Division moved up to forward assembly areas just north of Conical Hill and prepared to make the dash through the corridor. At 1900 on 21 May the 184th Infantry, chosen by General Arnold to lead the way, was in place at Gaja Ridge, at the northern base of Conical. The initial move of the envelopment was to be made in the dead of the night and in stealth. General Buckner felt that "if the 7th can swing round, running the gauntlet, it may be the kill." As part of this operation, the 2nd Battalion of the 184th Regiment moved out from Gaja Ridge during the night, swiftly and silently passing through Yonabaru in the early morning hours to capture Spruce Hill and Chestnut Hill in a surprise attack. Colonel Green's 3rd Battalion then followed the 2nd Battalion through Yonabaru, but their assault on Juniper and Bamboo Hills was unsuccessful as the surprised defenders regrouped. The following day, Green's two battalions continued to push toward these initial objectives, ultimately securing a solid line that stretched from the coastline across the southern slopes of Chestnut, and then over to Juniper and Bamboo by day's end. This success allowed Colonel Finn's 32nd Regiment to pass through Yonabaru and advance westward along the Naha-Yonabaru valley to assault the enemy's western hill defenses focused around Oak Hill.On the west coast, after a successful night reconnaissance of the Asato River, the 4th Marines rapidly crossed the river under cover of smoke, beginning their advance toward a low ridge 500 yards south of the Asato. However, as previously noted, the torrential rain had turned every draw and gully into a sticky morass of knee- and thigh-deep mud in the center. The steep slopes of the hills and ridges, treacherous under the best of conditions, became virtually unassailable. Consequently, full-scale coordinated attacks had to be canceled, and only localized gains could be achieved. Despite the breakthrough in the center, the Japanese command remained concerned about the threat posed to the flanks of the Shuri bastion by American advances along both coasts. While they believed the Naha breakthrough could be contained, every available soldier was deployed to establish a defensive line stretching from the southwest slopes of Conical Hill through Yonawa to the road junction village of Chan, aiming to eliminate Arnold's spearhead that had penetrated into the Naha-Yonabaru valley. General Ushijima feared that his forces were being gradually encircled in the Shuri fortress, where they would become “easy prey” to overwhelming American firepower. In light of this situation, Ushijima began planning a withdrawal to the Chinen Peninsula or the southernmost part of the island, the Kiyamu Peninsula. This decision was met with resistance from General Fujioka, who expressed concern that thousands of severely wounded men would have to be abandoned during the retreat.  Although the holding of the heights surrounding the city had been the keystone of the Japanese preferred plan, several factors now militated against its retention. There were an estimated 50000 surviving officers and men to be crammed into a final defense zone less than a mile in diameter. Once these troops were surrounded, the Japanese believed that they would be rendered ineffectual and become "easy prey" to overwhelming American fire superiority. In addition, Japanese long-range artillery pieces, many of which were still intact, could not be effectively utilized within the limited space that would be available. The best chance of prolonging the battle for Okinawa seemed to rest in defending the Kiyamu Peninsula region which was dominated by the Yaeju Dake-Yuza Dake Escarpment. Natural and artificial caves, sufficient to accommodate the whole of the surviving army, abounded in the area. The 24th Division, which had organized the terrain, had left a considerable amount of ammunition and weapons there when it moved north to the Shuri lines. The principal roads in southern Okinawa led directly to the proposed position, thus facilitating the movement of large bodies of men in the shortest possible time. These roads also gave American tanks an excellent route of advance, but only to the outposts of the defensive zone where cliffs, hills, and precipitous ridges barred the way. To add weight to his argument, General Amamiya indicated that his 24th Transport Regiment had preserved enough trucks to move the Shuri munitions reserve to the new position within five nights if weather conditions permitted. General Ushijima, after considering the respective positions of his staff and commanders, decided to order the move to Kiyamu.  Although General Suzuki preferred the Chinen Peninsula, which his brigade had fortified, most officials supported a move to the Kiyamu Peninsula, where Amamiya's 24th Division had previously established defenses in the natural and artificial caves of the Yaeju Dake-Yuza Dake Escarpment. Thus, transportation of wounded personnel and munitions reserves to the south commenced at midnight on May 23, with the bulk of the 32nd Army scheduled to begin their withdrawal six days later.  On the night of 25 May, the remnants of the 62d Division were to pull out of the Shuri line and move through Tsukasan to counterattack the Americans. The relatively strong 22d Independent Infantry Battalion, which had been in reserve throughout most of the fighting in April and May, was directed to hold the Shuri front in place of the division. The orders to General Fujioka were "to annihilate the enemy rushing from the Yonabaru area." Failing this, the division was at least to stop the American advance long enough to allow the main body of the Thirty-second Army to retire. In order to gain time to organize the new positions, the holding force left on the Shuri front was to fight on until 31 May. Withdrawing units were to leave behind strong rearguards which would defend a line along the Kokuba Gawa to the hills north of Tsukasan and Chan and then south through Karadera to the east coast until the night of 2 June. Then a second line centered on Tomusu, approximately 2,000 yards farther south, would be held until the night of 4 June. By that time the Thirty-second Army would be firmly set up within its Itoman-Yunagusuku-Gushichan outpost zone. Admiral Ota's naval force was directed to hold the west flank of the withdrawal corridor and begin its own retreat when ordered by 32nd Army. During the night, Admiral Ugaki initiated his seventh mass Kikisui attack, launching 165 kamikaze aircraft that inflicted only light damage on landing craft. On May 24, while engineers constructed a bridge over the Asato River to facilitate vehicle movement, the 4th Marines suffered heavy casualties as they attempted to advance through the muddy, flooded valley and low clay hills. Simultaneously, Shepherd's Reconnaissance Company crossed the lower Asato and roamed the streets of northwestern Naha without encountering any resistance. To the east, Dill's 1st Battalion faced a brutal counterattack that inflicted significant casualties and nearly drove the Americans from Oboe Hill. Following Ushijima's directives, the 32nd and 184th Regiments began to encounter increasing resistance as they sought to expand their control over the valley and the high ground to the south. This culminated in a series of aggressive nighttime counterattacks that ultimately slowed and halted the western advance of the 7th Division. During the night, Japanese forces conducted heavy raids on American airfields at Kadena, Yontan, and Iejima. However, these attacks were merely a diversion for Operation Gi-Gou, a suicide raid against Kadena and Yontan. In this operation, twelve Ki-21 heavy bombers, carrying Giretsu Kuteitai special airborne assault troops, aimed to crash land on the airfields to deploy commandos tasked with destroying aircraft stationed there.  After the start of B-29 attacks on Tokyo from bases in the Mariana Islands, the 1st Raiding Brigade of the Teishin Shudan was ordered to form a commando unit for a "special operations" mission to attack and destroy the bombers on the Aslito Airfield on Saipan. Captain Okuyama Michiro, commander of the brigade's engineering company and trained in sabotage and demolition was selected as mission leader. He selected an additional 126 men from his own team, the 4th Company of the 1st Raiding Regiment, to form the first Giretsu Airborne Unit. It was initially organized with a command section and five platoons and one independent squad, based at the Imperial Japanese Army's air academy at Saitama. The group unit also included eight intelligence officers and two radio men from the Nakano School. Giretsu operations were to be undertaken at night, beginning with air strikes by bombers. After this, commando units would be inserted onto the target airfield by crash landing their transports. The fact that there was no provision for extraction of the strike force, along with the rejection of surrender in Japanese military doctrine at the time, meant that the Giretsu ground operations were effectively suicide attacks. Though the Saipan attack was eventually cancelled, the 6th Air Army ultimately requested the deployment of the Giretsu Special Forces to neutralize the Okinawa airfields. The 6th Air Army accordingly began preparations for the attack in early May. Led by Captain Okuyama, the raid force moved from Nishitsukuba to Kumamoto as it continued to prepare for the assault, codenamed Operation Gi-Gou. Aircraft for the raid came from the 3rd Independent Air Unit based in the vicinity of Hamamatsu. The raid force consisted of 120 commandos broken up into a headquarters section and five flights, each containing twenty men. They were to be transported by twelve Mitsubishi Ki-21s stripped of their guns and with additional forward and rear exits added to assist raiders with exiting. The timing of the raid was also meant to coincide with the withdrawal of the 32nd Army from the Shuri Line in southern Okinawa. Of the twelve bombers dispatched, four encountered engine trouble and returned to base, while three were intercepted by American night fighters en route to Okinawa. The remaining five Ki-21 bombers approached Yontan Airfield at low altitude and engaged Marine anti-aircraft gunners from the 1st Provisional Anti-aircraft Artillery Group. As a result, four of the bombers were shot down or crash-landed; however, a small number of Giretsu commandos survived this wave and commenced their mission to attack aircraft on the airfield. The fifth bomber, however, successfully evaded anti-aircraft fire and belly-landed approximately 100 meters from the control tower. About 10 commandos disembarked and attacked aircraft and air personnel with grenades. In the ensuing chaos, the Japanese commandos killed two Americans, wounded 18, destroyed nine aircraft, damaged 29 more, and set a fuel dump ablaze, destroying 70,000 gallons of aviation gasoline. After twelve hours of mayhem, however, American troops hunted down the commandos and exterminated them to a man. Despite this partial success, the Japanese operation occurred against a backdrop of heavy losses, with American fighters and anti-aircraft fire claiming a total of 150 Japanese planes on May 24. During the course of three days, Ugaki committed a total of 387 Navy planes and 174 Army planes to his kamikaze attacks, which continued through May 25. These attacks successfully sank the destroyer Bates, one transport, and one landing craft, while further damaging two destroyers, one destroyer minesweeper, one minesweeper, one transport, and one Liberty ship. On the same day, Admiral Rawlings' Task Force 57 launched its final strikes in the Okinawa area before retiring late on May 25, having completed the Royal Navy's Iceberg mission. On land, while Shepherd's Reconnaissance Company occupied the deserted ruins of Naha, the 4th Marines fought to seize Machisi Ridge and continued pushing into the eastern outskirts of Naha. However, across the remainder of the 10th Army front, assault units struggled to make progress due to the havoc wreaked by the rain and the stiffened Japanese resistance. That night, in accordance with the withdrawal plan, the 62nd Division began moving its remaining 3,000 men to counter the advance of the 7th Division, hoping to delay the American advance long enough for the main body of the 32nd Army to retreat. The arrival of additional forces on the Ozato-Mura front had little significant impact, primarily serving to strengthen the covering and holding force. On May 26, the 184th Regiment successfully cleared the Hemlock-Locust Hill Escarpment. Meanwhile, the 32nd Regiment was brought nearly to a standstill in front of the Japanese defensive line across the Yonabaru valley. Looking west, Del Valle's Marines observed large numbers of enemy troops withdrawing from Shuri and were able to pinpoint their location for naval guns, artillery, and aircraft to bombard. However, despite penetrating the Shuri defensive line on both flanks, the day yielded minimal progress. At sea, further kamikaze attacks caused damage to one destroyer, one destroyer minesweeper, and a subchaser. In total, Ugaki's raids over the past three days resulted in the deaths of 103 sailors.  Believing the fast carriers' continued value off Okinawa had become dubious, back on May 18 Mitscher had requested that TF 58 be relieved from its Okinawa station. Spruance regretfully declined. A week later an increasingly weary Mitscher reported: “For two and a half months [Task Force 58] operated daily in a 60nm square area East of Okinawa, less than 350nm from Kyushu. This was necessitated by the restricted area available and the necessity for being able to cover [the] Amami Gunto airfields, intercept air raids before they could reach Okinawa, and still furnish air support to ground forces. There was no other location from which all these things could be done.” Reflecting on the months of unrelenting stress, tedium, and fatigue, TG 58.1's screen commander, Captain Tom Hederman, signaled Rear Admiral J.J. Jocko Clark: “See Hebrews 13, verse 8.” Consulting his Bible aboard Hornet, Clark read: “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.” Amused, Clark forwarded the verse to his entire Task Group, adding, “No disrespect intended.” Clark then signaled Mitscher, “What the hell are we doing out here, anyway?” Mitscher's response: “We are a highspeed stationary target for the Japanese air force.” Indeed, TF 58 had already suffered over 2,000 Iceberg fatalities.

The brutal Battle of Okinawa was reaching a critical point as General Buckner's forces pressed against fierce Japanese defenses. Struggles unfolded over Sugar Loaf Hill and Wana Ridge, with Marines suffering heavy casualties but slowly gaining ground. By late May, the dire situation prompted Japanese commanders to plan a retreat to more defensible positions as American forces closed in. Despite challenging conditions, the Allies pushed forward, marking a decisive breakthrough in the Pacific War.

  This episode features  Dr Masanori Mori (Division of Palliative and Supportive Care, Seirei Mikatahara General Hospital, Hamamatsu, Japan)   What is already known about the topic? As in Western countries' health-care systems, advance care planning is being increasingly implemented in Asian ones, but consensus on its definition and recommendations based on Asian culture are lacking. In high-context, Confucian-influenced Asian societies, explicit conversations about end-of-life care with patients are not always the norm. Family involvement is crucial in decision-making. Health-care providers in Asia uncommonly involve patients in advance care planning, partly due to their lack of knowledge and skills in advance care planning, personal uneasiness, fear of conflicts with families and their legal consequences, and the lack of a standard system for advance care planning.   What this paper adds? A key domain not previously highlighted in Western Delphi studies is “a person-centered and family-based approach” that facilitates families' involvement to support an individual's engagement in advance care planning and the attainment of the individual's best interest through shared decision-making. Treatment preferences in Asian contexts are often shaped by relationships and responsibilities toward others, with families and health-care providers supporting individuals to meaningfully participate, even in the presence of physical or cognitive impairments.   Implications for practice, theory, or policy Our definition and recommendations can guide clinical practice, education, research, and policy-making in advance care planning, not only in the Asian sectors included in our study, but also in regions with Asian residents and other areas where implicit communication and family-centered decision-making are valued. Our findings, combined with the existing evidence, will help future investigations to develop culturally sensitive advance care planning interventions, identify appropriate outcomes, and build an infrastructure where Asian individuals receive care consistent with their values, goals, and preferences.   Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/02692163241284088   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

Schon einmal etwas von Hamamatsu gehört? In den meisten Fällen sicherlich nicht. Nur Kennerinnen und Kenner von Klavierwettbewerben wird die japanische Stadt etwas sagen. Eine Stadt, die, und das macht sie so spannend, in Sachen Musikinstrumenten weit über Japan hinaus ein Unikum ist. Thomas Migge war in den Fabriken von Yamaha und Kawai und hat sich einen Überblick verschafft.

Last time we spoke about the advance to Ormoc Valley. As October 1944 unfolded in the Leyte campaign, American forces steadily pushed Japanese troops inland. Despite fierce resistance, they captured key positions, like Dagami, Catmon Hill, and multiple airstrips. While the Japanese reinforced areas like Ormoc, American regiments advanced through challenging conditions, relying on artillery amid minimal air support due to weather and resource constraints. By month's end, American forces had inflicted heavy casualties on the Japanese, securing vital beachheads and pushing closer to full control of Leyte. After suffering losses at Leyte Gulf, the 7th Fleet withdrew, leaving Kenney's P-38s to defend Tacloban airfields amid Japanese air raids. As kamikaze attacks grew, USS Franklin sustained heavy casualties, while the Americans pressed forward, capturing Carigara on Leyte. Meanwhile, Australian forces began reclaiming New Britain, pushing Japanese forces back through guerilla warfare. Facing tough jungle conditions, Australian and native troops gradually secured strategic positions by December, reinforcing the Allied grip in the Pacific.

If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel you can find a few videos all the way from the Opium Wars of the 1800's until the end of the Pacific War in 1945.  As we have seen over the past few weeks, the Battle of Leyte Gulf saw Generals MacArthur's forces land and successfully defeat the 16th Division of Leyte Island as well as seized Carigara and Pinamopoan over the northern coast. The 24th Division also engaged the enemy's reinforcements, centred around the elite 1st Division during the battle for the northern entrance into the Ormoc Valley. Meanwhile Admiral Okawachi and General Yamashita aimed to bring more reinforcements to Leyte which would lead to another air-naval battle. The previous week, Colonel Verbeck's 21st Regiment was engaged in a mission to capture Breakneck Ridge, fiercely defended by Colonel Miyauchi's 57th Regiment. Simultaneously, General Kataoka mobilized his remaining two regiments to initiate a broad, four-pronged assault on the Pinamopoan perimeter. However, the rugged terrain slowed their movement toward assembly areas. On the morning of November 8 a typhoon, moving in from the west, swept over the entire island of Leyte. Jan Valtin, a member of the 24th Division, graphically describes it: "From the angry immensity of the heavens floods raced in almost horizontal sheets. Palms bent low under the storm, their fronds flattened like streamers of wet silk. Trees crashed to earth. In the expanse of… [cogon] grass the howling of the wind was like a thousand-fold plaint of the unburied dead. The trickle of supplies was at a standstill. On Carigara Bay the obscured headlands moaned under the onslaught of the… seas. Planes were grounded and ships became haunted things looking for refuge. Massed artillery… barrages to the summit of Breakneck Ridge sounded dim and hollow in the tempest. Trails were obliterated by the rain. The sky was black." In the midst of the storm, the 21st's infantry attacked. As the typhoon swept across the island, Verbeck's forces launched a three-pronged assault on Breakneck Ridge and Hill 1525, facing staunch resistance from Miyauchi's defenders but making considerable progress toward Hill 1525. Notably, plans for General Suzuki's offensive were found on a deceased Japanese officer, enabling General Krueger to redeploy his forces effectively. On 10 November General Mudge sent elements of the 1st Cavalry Division to patrol the area of the mountains of central Leyte extensively. From 5 November through 2 December, elements of the 1st Cavalry Division extensively patrolled the central mountain area and had many encounters with small forces of the enemy. At all times the supply situation was precarious. The 12th Cavalry established high in the foothills, at the entrance to the passes through the mountains, a supply base that was also a native camp, a hospital, and a rest camp. About 300 Filipino carriers were kept here under the protection of the guerrillas. The carriers had been hired for six days at a time and were not allowed to leave without a pass from their Filipino leader. This precaution was necessary, since the ration-carrying assignment was extremely arduous. The cavalrymen would frequently skirmish with the 41st Regiment and the 169th and 171st Independent Battalions during this period. Brigadier-General Julian Cunningham's 112th Cavalry Regiment, expected by November 14, was tasked with relieving General Mudge's 1st Cavalry Division in the Carigara-Barugo area to enable a southwest advance from the central mountains and ease pressure on General Irving's 24th Division.  General Bradley's 96th Division was directed to capture the high ground between Jaro and Dagami, with the 382nd Regiment remaining at Dagami to inflict significant losses on the 16th Division while securing Bloody Ridge. By November 4, the 382nd Regiment had made some progress into Bloody Ridge. The night of 4-5 November was not quiet. The Japanese delivered harassing fire on the 1st Battalion, and at 2205 elements of the 16th Division launched a heavy assault against the perimeter of the 2d Battalion. An artillery concentration immediately stopped the attack, and the Japanese fled, leaving 254 dead and wounded behind them. The following morning, after the artillery had fired a preparation in front of the 1st and 2d Battalions, the two battalions renewed the attack at 0900 and two companies from the 3d Battalion protected the regimental left (south) flank. The battalions advanced about 1,000 yards before they encountered any strong resistance. The defenses of the 16th Division consisted of a great many concrete emplacements, concealed spider holes, and connecting trenches. By nightfall, at 1700, the two battalions, assisted by the tanks from Company A, 763d Tank Battalion, successfully reduced the enemy to their front and captured the ridge. Each battalion formed its own perimeter and made plans to renew the attack on 6 November. At 0830 the 1st Battalion, with light tanks in support, moved out in the attack westward against a strong enemy force that was well entrenched in foxholes and pillboxes. Each of these defensive positions had to be reduced before the advance could continue. At 1300 the 2d Battalion moved to the high ground on the right flank of the 1st. The 1st Battalion encountered a strong concrete enemy pillbox which was believed to be a command post, since there were no firing apertures. As grenades had no effect it became necessary finally to neutralize the pillbox by pouring gasoline down the ventilation pipes and setting it afire. Two officers and nineteen enlisted men of the enemy were killed in the pillbox. The Japanese continued to fight tenaciously. There was no withdrawal, but by the end of the day only isolated pockets of enemy resistance remained. The Japanese 16th Division was taking a bad beating. Its supply of provisions had run out. All the battalion commanders, most of the company commanders, and half the artillery battalion and battery commanders had been killed. On the night of 6 November the 16th Division contracted its battle lines and on the following day took up a new position in the Dagami area. The new position ranged from a hill about four and a half miles northwest of Dagami to a point about three and three-fourths miles northwest of Burauen. On 7 November all three battalions of the 382d Infantry engaged the enemy and maintained constant pressure against his positions. The 1st and 3d Battalions advanced west, while the 2d Battalion drove north and west. The 3d Battalion encountered -the more determined resistance. Advancing, preceded by tanks, it met heavy enemy machine gun and rifle fire. A large enemy force assaulted the troops at close quarters and tried to destroy the tanks, but when the 382d Infantry introduced flamethrowers and supporting machine guns, the attackers fell back in disorder. The regiment overran the Japanese defensive positions and killed an estimated 474 of the enemy. Company E of the 2d Battalion had remained in the Patok area, engaged in patrolling and wiping out isolated pockets of enemy resistance. On 8 November strong patrols from the 1st and 2d Battalions probed west into the hills. They encountered the left flank of the enemy supporting position at a point about 2,600 yards west of Patok. A very heavy rainfall on the night of 8-9 November made an assault against the position impossible on 9 November. After all-night artillery fire, the 1st and 3d Battalions moved out at 0900 on 10 November. They met no resistance, but progress was slow because of the swamps. By 1225 the two battalions, supported by a platoon of light tanks, occupied the ridge formerly held by elements of the 16th Division. The 1st Battalion had advanced 2,500 yards. The 382d Infantry had destroyed all organized enemy resistance in its sector and removed the threat to Dagami.  Meanwhile, General Arnold's 7th Division stationed at the Burauen-Abuyog area began sending patrols from Baybay toward Ormoc to prepare for a larger advance, while the 2nd Battalion, 32nd Regiment moved to Baybay, successfully ambushing the Japanese unit advancing to Abuyog. Concurrently, Okawachi sent his fourth convoy from Manila, consisting of three transports, four frigates, and six destroyers under Admiral Kimura. This convoy carried the bulk of General Yamagata's 26th Division and approximately 3,500 tons of supplies, followed by another echelon of three transports with the remainder of the 1st Division. The echelon reached Ormoc the next day, unloaded successfully, and departed without issue. However, the main convoy encountered air attacks as it approached Ormoc Bay, beginning its debarkation by nightfall. On 10 November the 38th Bomb Group, based on Morotai, sent 32 B-25 Mitchells escorted by 37 P-47 Thunderbolts to attack TA-4 near Ponson Island. Reaching the convoy just before noon, the B-25s attacked at minimum altitude in pairs, sinking the two largest transports, Takatsu Maru and Kashii Maru, disabling a third, and sinking two of the patrol craft escorts at a cost of seven bombers, for which the group was awarded the Distinguished Unit Citation. Although Yamagata's troops were finally ashore by November 10, most of the supplies couldn't be unloaded due to ongoing enemy air attacks. Shortly after leaving Ormoc, American planes intercepted the convoy, destroying two transports and one frigate, while further damaging another frigate and a destroyer. Meanwhile, Okawachi dispatched a third convoy, consisting of five transports, a submarine chaser, and five destroyers under Rear Admiral Hayakawa Mikio, transporting special troops and heavy equipment of the 26th Division. When one transport ran aground on Luzon's Bondoc Peninsula, Kimura sent two frigates and three destroyers to transfer its cargo to Ormoc. As a result, Hayakawa's convoy arrived at Ormoc Bay on November 11 and began unloading. However, ULTRA intercepts had detected the enemy convoy departing Manila, prompting Admiral Halsey to redeploy Task Force 38 under Admiral McCain. While under repair at Manila on 29 October, Nachi and Kumano were attacked by aircraft from USN Task Force 38. Nachi was hit by a single bomb to her aircraft deck, and this, as well as strafing attacks, killed 53 crewmen and further delayed repairs. On 5 November, again in Manila Bay, Nachi was attacked by three waves of U.S. planes from the aircraft carriers USS Lexington and Ticonderoga. She escaped the first wave undamaged, but was hit by five bombs and two or three torpedoes in the second wave while attempting to get underway. During the third wave, Nachi was hit by five torpedoes in her port side, which severed her bow and stern, and by an additional 20 bombs and 16 rockets. Nachi's flag commander, Vice Admiral Kiyohide Shima, was ashore for a conference at the time of the attack, but arrived at dockside in time to see his flagship blown apart. The central portion of the vessel sank in 102 feet (31 m) of water about 12 nautical miles (22 km) northeast of Corregidor. McCain launched an attack on Kimura's convoy. Just as unloading began, 347 planes struck, sinking all four transports and four destroyers, including the flagship Shimakaze, on which Hayakawa lost his life. This costly reinforcement operation thus ended in partial failure, with most equipment lost and over 1,500 casualties. Nevertheless, elements of the 1st Division moved immediately toward the Limon area, while Yamagata's units, though short on weaponry, were ordered to assemble at Dolores to prepare for joining the Imahori Detachment at Daro. At the same time, noticing the rapid advance of the enemy into the Carigara area, Yamashita concluded that Suzuki's proposed offensive toward Tacloban was destined for failure. He ordered the main force of the 35th Army to join the 16th Division in the advantageous mountainous positions of the Burauen-Dagami area to regain control of the recently captured airstrips, thereby limiting operations in the Carigara area to a holding action. Concurrently, as this adjustment to the tactical plan was made, Yamashita communicated his growing belief that the overall situation offered little hope for victory on Leyte and unsuccessfully tried to persuade General Terauchi to shift the decisive battle to Luzon. As a result of Terauchi's decision, the 68th Brigade was still to be sent to Leyte; the 23rd Division was scheduled to go to Manila in mid-November before returning to Leyte; and the 10th and 19th Divisions were planned for movement to the island by the end of the year. With the plans finalized for continuing the decisive battle on Leyte, Terauchi's headquarters departed Manila for Saigon on November 17. Back on Leyte, on November 9, the weary, mud-stained troops of the 21st Regiment launched another attack, with the 3rd Battalion assaulting the center of Breakneck Ridge and the 2nd Battalion targeting OP Hill, though they made only minor gains. Additionally, Verbeck's 1st Battalion attacked Limon but was repelled by heavy enemy fire, and fresh Japanese troops subsequently counterattacked the Hill 1525 position, forcing the Americans to retreat. Finally, Colonel Chapman's 2nd Battalion reached the western slopes of Hill 1525 in the afternoon, but it was too late for them to take part in the battle. On November 10, Verbeck continued his assault, successfully capturing OP Hill and making significant headway in the area. At the same time, Chapman's 2nd Battalion began advancing westward to establish a roadblock on Highway 2, approximately 2000 yards south of Limon. Meanwhile, Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Clifford's 1st Battalion of the 34th Regiment landed on the western shore of Carigara Bay and initiated a wide envelopment around the western flank of the 57th Regiment to secure the high ground known as Kilay Ridge. Additionally, Mudge's cavalrymen pressed forward toward Mount Minoro. On this day, Yamashita's adjustments to the tactical plan finally reached Suzuki's headquarters. As a result, Suzuki abandoned his initial strategy and directed Yamagata to move his troops quickly to Albuera to prepare for an offensive eastward, dubbed Operation Wa. To replace the 26th Division in upcoming operations on the Jaro front, Suzuki decided to deploy the 30th Division, which had not yet departed Mindanao, instructing them to land at Ipil and prepare to support the Imahori Detachment, already skirmishing with Bradley's patrols. On November 11, following a heavy artillery barrage, Verbeck resumed his assault, although the 2nd Battalion quickly found itself pinned down, while the 1st Battalion successfully secured a ridge 300 yards southwest of OP Hill. The next morning, the 1st and 3rd Battalions advanced against the crest of Breakneck Ridge, successfully capturing the objective before being halted by Japanese artillery fire. At the same time, Chapman's 2nd Battalion reached Highway 2, and Clifford's 1st Battalion, supported by elements of the guerrilla 96th Regiment, arrived in the Cabiranan area. By November 13, Verbeck's 1st and 2nd Battalions advanced 600 and 400 yards, respectively, without encountering opposition. Breakneck Ridge was secured, although the Japanese maintained control over several nearby spurs, particularly Corkscrew Ridge. Nonetheless, the 21st Regiment reported approximately 1,779 Japanese soldiers killed, suffering 630 casualties in the process. Additionally, Clifford's 1st Battalion successfully reached Kilay Ridge undetected and quickly established defensive positions. At 0855 on 13 November a column of Filipino men, women, and children entered the perimeter and brought approximately thirty-five boxes of rations from Consuegra. The battalion left the area at 0930 and reached the ridge without opposition. Trenches and prepared gun positions without a man in them honeycombed the ridge from one end to the other. It was evident that elements of the 1st Division had intended to occupy the area in the latter stages of the battle for Limon. On 14 November Colonel Clifford ordered his battalion to entrench itself along the ridge in positions that would afford the best tactical advantage. The battalion established strong points and observation posts on the knolls, placed blocks on the trails leading through the area, and sent out reconnaissance patrols to locate enemy positions. Colonel Clifford made arrangements to utilize the Filipinos as carriers. These men were to use a trail on the north end of the ridge and bring supplies to the battalion from a supply dump at Consuegra. The first human pack train arrived in the area at 1010 with twenty-eight cases of rations and a supply of batteries for the radios. At 1125 enemy artillery shelled the southern end of the ridge and twenty minutes later shifted its fire to the Limon area. The battalion did not succeed in establishing physical contact with the 2d Battalion, 19th Infantry, which was operating east of the road, but it was able to make radio contact. Throughout the day, patrols of the battalion were active in searching out enemy positions. Meanwhile the 112th Cavalry was landed at Carigara and attached to the 1st Cavalry Division to strengthen the assault on the central Leyte mountains. Meanwhile, the reserve 32nd Division, led by Major-General William Gill, was also dispatched to the island to relieve the fatigued 24th Division. This newly arrived division was assigned the mission of capturing Limon and advancing down the Ormoc Valley toward Ormoc. On the Japanese side, after receiving the rest of his division, Kataoka chose to move the 1st Regiment to the left flank to assist the 57th, which had also been bolstered by two fresh battalions. This combined force aimed to launch an attack along the main road toward Pinamopoan while the 49th Regiment and the 171st Independent Battalion sought to envelop the enemy's left flank toward Colasian. By mid-November, the headquarters of the 102nd Division and most of the 364th Independent Battalion had also arrived in Ormoc, with Lieutenant-General Fukei Shinpei taking command of the 41st Regiment and his other battalions on the island as they advanced toward Mount Pina. Furthermore, despite significant losses to enemy aircraft, five air regiments had reinforced the 4th Air Army, enabling General Tominaga to make the 4th Air Division fully operational, a unit that had previously focused solely on base activities and anti-submarine patrols. The replenishment of naval air strength was progressing well, with replacement aircraft for the 1st Combined Base Air Force outnumbering losses by 26% in November. On November 15, the Combined Fleet opted to cease training carrier air groups and instead focus on expanding the base air forces. The 3rd Air Fleet, stationed in the homeland, was tasked with training replacement units for deployment to the Philippines. Due to the successful reinforcement of Japanese air forces in the Philippines and General Kenney's ongoing inability to provide close air support, Halsey once again directed Task Force 38 to attack enemy airbases on Luzon. On November 13 and 14, McCain's carriers conducted several strikes against Japanese airfields in Luzon, resulting in a significant decrease in enemy air operations over Leyte. On 13 November 1944, on the threat of American carrier strikes on Luzon, Kiso was ordered to return to Brunei that evening carrying Vice Admiral Kiyohide Shima. Before she could leave for Brunei, she was attacked on 13 November while underway in Manila Bay by more than 350 carrier planes of Task Force 38's carrier task groups 38.1's Hornet, Monterey and Cowpens, TG 38.3's Essex, Ticonderoga and Langley and TG 38.4's Enterprise and San Jacinto. Three bombs hit Kiso to starboard - one in the bow, one near her boiler rooms and one near her aft gun mounts. Kiso sank in shallow water 13 kilometres (7.0 nmi; 8.1 mi) west of Cavite. Captain Ryonosuke Imamura and 103 of her crew survived, but 175 crewmen went down with the ship. Akebono, while alongside destroyer Akishimo at Cavite pier near Manila, was attacked in a USAAF air raid. A direct bomb hit set both ships ablaze, and the following day a large explosion on Akishimo blew a hole in Akebono, which sank upright in shallow water, with 48 crewmen killed and 43 wounded. After returning to Manila, Hatsuharu was caught in an air raid in Manila Bay. A series of near misses buckled plates and set fires, causing the ship to sink in shallow water. The attack killed 12 crewmen and injured 60 more, but 218 survived. Several other vessels were also sunk. Meanwhile, on November 14, the Hi-81 convoy, comprising the escort carriers Shinyo and Akitsu Maru, destroyer Kashi, seaplane tender Kiyokawa Maru, submarine chaser No. 156, seven escort ships, five oilers, and three transports, left Imari Bay under Rear-Admiral Sato Tsutomu. The convoy carried most of Lieutenant-General Nishiyama Fukutaro's 23rd Division and headed into the Yellow Sea, wary of enemy submarines. After stopping for the night in Ukishima Channel near the Gotō Islands, Sato's convoy resumed its journey on November 15 but was soon ambushed by two submarine wolfpacks. Commander Charles Loughlin's submarines were the first to strike, successfully hitting the Akitsu Maru with two torpedoes, which later sank, resulting in the loss of 2,046 lives, including most of the 64th Regiment. After the attack, Sato withdrew to Strange Island, located off the coast of Korea, to take refuge for the day. On the morning of November 17, the convoy resumed its journey but was soon detected by a B-29 Superfortress as it made its way toward the Shushan Islands. By late afternoon, Commander Gordon Underwood's submarines launched an assault on the Japanese ships, successfully striking the transport vessel Mayasan Maru, which sank quickly, resulting in the loss of 3,437 men, including most of the 72nd Regiment. Almost twelve hours later 200 kilometers off Saishu Island, Spadefish surfaced and attacked the Shinyo with six torpedoes. Four struck the carrier on the starboard at 11:03 pm, and it caught fire. At least 1,130 Japanese sailors went down with their ship; only about seventy survived, including Ishii. Kashi immediately dropped several depth charges where the Spadefish was thought to be. An oil slick and other debris eventually made the Japanese believe they had sunk Spadefish so the Kashi broke off the engagement, but Spadefish had escaped apparently without serious damage. Only minor cracks were reported to have appeared on the submarine after the alleged "sinking" by Kashi. Underwood's final strike was against the submarine chaser No. 156, which sustained three torpedo hits and sank rapidly. Following some rescue efforts, Sato continued his advance on November 21, eventually arriving in Kaohsiung five days later. Half of the convoy then proceeded to San Fernando, where the remaining members of the 23rd Division disembarked on December 2.  Yet thats it for today for the Philippines as we now need to shift over to Morotai.With Japanese reinforcements pushed back into the interior of the secured island, General Persons directed the 31st Division to capture several islands off New Guinea that served as observation points for Japanese outposts monitoring Allied movements. On November 15, the 2nd Battalion of the 167th Regiment landed on Pegun Island, followed by a successful attack on Bras Island the next day. By November 18, with the Mapia Islands secured, Company F of the 124th Regiment was sent to occupy the unguarded Asia Islands on November 19. In the Aitape region, Major-General Jack Stevens' 6th Australian Division was assigned to relieve American forces, similar to the Australian efforts on New Britain and Bougainville, in order to free up troops for the Philippines Campaign. By late October, a base had been successfully set up, allowing the 19th Brigade to arrive by mid-November, with the 17th Brigade scheduled for early December, and the 16th by year-end. Under General Blamey's orders, the new Australian garrisons were to adopt a more active approach than the American units had, so Stevens planned not only to secure the airfield and radar installations in the Aitape-Tadji area, but also to carry out extensive patrols in support of intelligence and guerrilla operations aimed at weakening the enemy in Wewak.  One of General Stevens' tasks was to give maximum help to AIB. and Angau units in the area in their tasks of gaining Intelligence, establishing patrol bases and protecting the native population. These AIB. and Angau units had been active in the Sepik-Aitape triangle since the time of the landing of American forces at Aitape in April 1944, and the 6th Division came into an area where, from the outset, practically all the deep patrolling had been done by groups of Australians. In the Aitape area, prior to the arrival of the Division (said the report of the 6th Division), Angau long-range patrols operated without troop support and, for their own protection, inaugurated a type of guerilla warfare. Selected village natives called "sentries" were taught to use grenades and Japanese rifles. The sentries, besides furnishing Intelligence, accounted for large numbers of enemy. This system was continued. As each area was freed the sentries were rewarded and returned to their villages. By early November, the 2/10th Commando Squadron had established a patrol base at Babiang, conducting numerous patrols throughout the month. Intelligence gathered suggested the Japanese forces were weakened, poorly nourished, and mainly focused on sourcing food. In response, Stevens planned two significant December operations: to sever the enemy's communication line along the Malin-Walum-Womisis-Amam axis and to neutralize enemy positions east of the Danmap River. By November 25, the seasoned 2/7th Commando Squadron had arrived at Babiang, and by month-end, the 19th Brigade took over the area. The commandos then advanced southward, setting up a base at Tong on December 4 and establishing an outpost at Kumbum three days later. Now to finish this week's episode let's explore the B-29 Superfortress operations during this time. After the Formosa Air Battle and the Omura raid on October 25, General LeMay's 20th Bomber Command conducted four missions in November. Three of these supported Southeast Asia operations as part of “PAC-AID,” while the fourth targeted the Omura Aircraft Factory, a key focus for the command. On November 3, 44 B-29s from India effectively bombed the Malegon Railway Yards at Rangoon. Two days later, 53 bombers hit Singapore's King George VI Graving Dock, the largest of several dry docks at Singapore and one of the world's best. The first of 53 Superforts attacking was over target at 0644, and the bombardier, Lt. Frank McKinney, put a I,ooo-pound bomb into the target within 50 feet of the aiming point, the caisson gate; Lt. Bolish McIntyre, 2 planes back, laid another alongside. This was the sort of pickle-barrel bombing the Air Corps had talked about before the war. Strike photos showed a rush of water into the dock, presumptive evidence that the gate had been strained, and subsequent reconnaissance photos indicated that the dock was out of use (A-2's estimate of three months of unserviceability was to prove quite accurate). There were other hits on the dock, on a 465-foot freighter in it, and on adjacent shops. For “baksheesh,” as the boys had learned to say in India, seven B-29's bombed the secondary target, Pangkalanbrandan refinery in Sumatra, and reported direct hits on the cracking plant. The Japanese, evidently relying on the inaccessibility of Singapore, put up a feeble defense, but the long trip took a toll of two planes and twelve crewmen, including Col. Ted L. Faulkner, commander of the 468th Group. On November 11, 96 B-29s launched from China to strike Omura under difficult weather; only 29 reached the aircraft factory unsuccessfully, while 24 more bombed Nanking with limited results. The month's final mission on November 27 saw 55 B-29s severely damage the Bang Soe marshaling yards in Bangkok. Meanwhile, in the Marianas, General Hansell's 21st Bomber Command prepared for strikes on the Japanese Home Islands. In order to properly plan missions to Japan, up-to-date reconnaissance photos of the proposed targets were needed. Other than information which was used during the Doolittle Raid in 1942, there was scant information about the locations of Japanese industry, especially the aircraft industry. On November 1, two days after arriving on Saipan, a 3rd Photographic Reconnaissance Squadron F-13A Superfortress (photo reconnaissance-configured B-29) took off bound for Tokyo. The aircraft flew over Tokyo at 32000 feet for 35 minutes taking picture after picture. A few fighters made it up to the camera plane's altitude but did not attack. These photos, along with other intelligence, gave the 21st Bomber Command the locations of the Japanese aircraft manufacturing plants and enabled mission planners to plan missions for the combat crews to attack. In honor of his mission, the aircraft was named "Tokyo Rose". In response, about ten G4Ms launched from Iwo Jima attacked Isley Field on Saipan the next day, scoring five bomb hits but losing three bombers. Hansell responded with a practice strike on Iwo Jima on November 5, though results were again limited. On November 7, the Japanese launched a follow-up attack, but it again resulted in minimal damage and cost them three bombers. A retaliatory strike by 17 B-29s the next day also fell short: one squadron had to jettison its bombs into the ocean, while another dropped its load through a gap in the undercast. Between Japanese attacks, American aircrew inexperience, delays in constructing airfields in the Marianas, and the slow movement of B-29s to Saipan, the 21st Bomber Command was behind schedule in its planned offensive against Japan. By November 15, only half of the 73rd Bombardment Wing's authorized 180 B-29s had arrived, but by November 22, around 118 bombers were finally in place. At this point, General Arnold ordered Hansell to begin Operation San Antonio I, marking the first strike against Tokyo. The chosen target was Nakajima's Musashi Aircraft Engine Plant, which supplied 27% of Japan's combat aircraft engines. On November 24, 111 B-29s took off for Japan, collectively carrying 277.5 tons of bombs. However, 17 bombers aborted mid-flight, and six others couldn't bomb due to mechanical issues. For the first time, the B-29s encountered the Jet stream, which was a high-speed wind coming out of the west at speeds as high as 200 mph at precisely the altitudes at which the bombers were operating. This caused the bomber formations to be disrupted and made accurate bombing impossible. As a result, only 24 B-29s bombed the Musashi plant, while 64 hit nearby dock and urban areas instead. The Japanese fighter response was less intense than expected, with the Americans claiming to have downed seven fighters, likely destroyed 18 more, and damaged nine, losing just one bomber in return. Another B-29 was lost on the return trip after running out of fuel and ditching. Despite disappointing bombing results in the mission—only 48 bombs struck the factory area, causing damage to just 1% of the building area and 2.4% of the machinery, with 57 killed and 75 injured—the raid exposed the weaknesses in Japan's air defense and showed the six million residents of Tokyo that they were vulnerable to attack. Given the limited impact of the November 24 mission, Hansell decided to launch a second major strike, dubbed San Antonio II, targeting Musashi once more. However, in the early hours of November 27, two G4M bombers from Iwo Jima carried out a low-altitude raid on Isley Field, escaping after destroying one B-29 and damaging eleven others.  Later that day, twelve bomb-equipped Mitsubishi A6M "Zero" fighters from the IJN's 252 Kōkūtai (252 Air Group) accompanied by two Nakajima C6N "Myrt" reconnaissance aircraft for navigation purposes departed Iwo Jima for Saipan. The attackers flew just above sea level to avoid US radar, and one of the A6Ms was forced to divert to Pagan after its propeller struck a wave; this aircraft was shot down by a USAAF Thunderbolt while attempting to land. The remaining eleven A6Ms arrived over Saipan at noon, shortly after XXI Bomber Command's second raid on Tokyo had departed. These aircraft strafed Isley Field destroying three or four B-29s and damaging up to two others. One of the Japanese pilots landed his fighter on Isley Field and fired on airfield personnel with his pistol until he was killed by rifle fire; this incident was witnessed by Brigadier General Haywood S. Hansell, the commander of XXI Bomber Command. None of the ten other A6Ms survived; four were shot down by USAAF fighters and six by anti-aircraft guns. The U.S. gunners also downed a USAAF Thunderbolt in circumstances which an official assessment later described as "inexcusable". Of the 81 bombers launched, 19 aborted, and those that reached Tokyo found the target covered by clouds, forcing them to drop bombs by radar over Tokyo's docks, urban areas, and the cities of Hamamatsu, Shizuoka, Numazu, and Osaka. Ultimately, for the loss of one Superfortress, the damage caused by this second strike was minimal. However, the strong Japanese response led Hansell to relocate some B-29s from Isley to safer Guam, strengthen Saipan's defenses and radar, and plan coordinated air-sea operations to neutralize Iwo Jima's staging fields.

The Americans pressed through Leyte's treacherous terrain and fierce resistance, aiming to secure strategic positions. Typhoons, enemy reinforcements, and brutal battles tested them harshly, but they advanced steadily. Despite heavy losses and airstrikes from both sides, American forces captured Breakneck Ridge and pushed onward, inching closer to victory.

Olá, eu sou Leo Lopes e o POD NOTÍCIAS chega à sua vigésima quinta edição trazendo um resumo de tudo o que aconteceu ao longo da semana no mercado de podcasts no Brasil e no mundo! Hoje é segunda-feira, dia 5 de agosto de 2024! Este episódio conta com o apoio da CONTENT ACADEMY, uma plataforma de cursos online voltada para quem quer trabalhar com criação de conteúdo, onde o mais legal é que os professores são os próprios criadores e os profissionais que trabalham com eles. Então tem curso de True Crime com o Ivan Mizanzuk do Projeto Humanos, tem Webjornalismo independente com o Alvaro e a Ana do Meteoro Brasil, tem Storytelling com o Kenji do Normose, tem curso de Edição de vídeo para Youtube com o Will do Jogatina Maneira, tem também o meu curso Podcast para todos (que tá com uma mega promoção por tempo limitado) e mais um monte de cursos incríveis! Então entra lá no site pra dar uma conferida em contentacademy.com.br! Se você também quiser anunciar a sua marca, produto ou serviço com a gente aqui no Pod Notícias – tanto no podcast como no nosso site –, manda um e-mail pro contato@podnoticias.com.br, que nós vamos ter o maior prazer em conversar com você sobre todas as opções de publicidade. E se você quiser colaborar com a gente com texto, sugestão de pauta ou envio de notícias, também vai ser muito bem-vindo e pode fazer isso através do mesmo e-mail. 1 - Abrindo nossa edição desta semana, a gente vai trazer os dados mais recentes da Magellan AI sobre os anúncios em áudio. Segundo o relatório de benchmarks da empresa, referente ao segundo trimestre de 2024, os investimentos em anúncios de podcast aumentaram cerca de 22% ano a ano, mas a quantidade de anúncios em podcasts aumentou 20%. Ou seja; não só a quantidade de anúncios nos podcasts está crescendo, mas ela também está sendo mais bem paga. A carga média de anúncios foi de 7,2% no segundo trimestre de 2024, um número maior do que os 5,9% no mesmo período de 2023. O que sugere que, para um programa típico de uma hora, cerca de 4,3 minutos são destinados à publicidade. Esse número ainda é um pouco menor do que nas rádios. No relatório da Magellan AI a referência foram alguns programas matinais de rádio da Audacy, NPR e 2GB, nos quais a porcentagem de anúncios fica entre 24% e 27,1% da minutagem total do programa. Ainda assim, 20% de crescimento ano a ano é um número bem expressivo, principalmente considerando que as outras mídias digitais, mesmo que tenham mais investimentos, estão com eles estacionados na mesma porcentagem desde 2020 (que foi o primeiro ano da pandemia). Então tá chegando o ano da publicidade no podcast, só não vê quem não quer! Link 2 - E já que estamos falando em anúncios em podcast, na semana passada o desenvolvedor Micah Engle-Eshleman lançou o Adblock Podcast, que é um novo aplicativo que pula automaticamente todos os anúncios em podcasts e programas de áudio. Ele já está disponível para usuários do iTunes e é um aplicativo contratável por assinatura - pra que os criadores dos podcasts não percam a receita publicitária deles, olha só que legal. Mas como é que isso funciona? Bem, o Adblock detecta e "pula" os anúncios de forma automática, armazenando o áudio no cache, e aí ele destina US$ 0,04 aos podcasters por cada anúncio que é ignorado. Falando assim pode parecer que é pouco, mas a média de pagamentos por impressões no mercado é U$ 0,03, então o valor é mais do que justo pra gerar essa troca. O único plano de assinatura disponível no momento é o Premium, que ignora até 50 anúncios mensais pelo valor de $3,99 - também mensal. Se não for suficiente pro ouvinte, ele ainda pode comprar 100 "skips" extras por $5,99. O bom, é que todos os pulos extras que forem adquiridos, não expiram de um mês pro outro. Então se você comprou 100 e sobrou 20, no mês seguinte você vai ter os 50 pulos mensais + esses 20 que sobraram. Por enquanto, o aplicativo não tem nenhuma outra versão, mas o desenvolvedor disse que já está trabalhando nisso. Link 3 - A AudioUK, uma entidade que representa a indústria de podcasts, rádio e audiolivros no Reino Unido, está tentando criar um lobby pra garantir alguns benefícios fiscais para quem produz podcasts e audiobooks em solo britânico. A iniciativa partiu de um manifesto que foi divulgado no começo desse ano, que busca replicar os incentivos fiscais que já existem pra TV e cinema, principalmente considerando a possibilidade do podcast atrair investimentos internacionais. Com isso, a AudioUK lançou uma pesquisa pra atualizar os dados de um relatório que já foi feito em 2021, para mostrar ao novo governo britânico qual foi o crescimento da indústria, e qual o seu potencial no futuro. A Diretora Administrativa da AudioUK, Chloe Straw, pediu aos produtores de podcast de todos os tamanhos que participem da pesquisa para fortalecer a defesa dessas políticas e impulsionar a indústria de produção de áudio no país. Link AINDA EM NOTÍCIAS DA SEMANA: 4 - A produtora canadense de podcast Pacific Content foi comprada pela start-up britânica Lower Street. A Lower Street, que está no mercado desde 2017, é uma agência de produção de podcasts corporativos completos, e já trabalhou com marcas como Adobe e Pepsico. O valor da negociação não foi divulgado ao público. O que foi divulgado foram as impressões dos envolvidos, e parece que tá todo mundo muito feliz com isso: o Harry Morton, fundador da Lower Street, disse que sempre foi um grande admirador dos podcasts da Pacific Content, e o Steve Pratt da Pacific Content devolveu a gentileza e os elogios dizendo que tá confiante e entusiasmado com a nova fase das empresas. Vários funcionários da Pacific Content vão se juntar à equipe da Lower Street nas próximas semanas - o que não vai ser uma integração muito difícil, porque os 29 funcionários da Lower Street já trabalham de forma remota, então aumenta o time, aumenta o trabalho, mas não aumenta tanto assim a complexidade. Link 5 - A SiriusXM anunciou o lançamento do SiriusXM Podcasts+, um serviço de assinatura independente que vai estar disponível para o Apple Podcasts a partir de hoje, 5 de agosto. O serviço oferece episódios sem anúncios, conteúdos bônus e acesso antecipado a novos episódios de vários programas populares dos Estados Unidos. Por enquanto, a assinatura é exclusiva para o Apple Podcasts, mas já foi anunciado que o serviço vai ser expandido para outras plataformas em breve, além de ficar disponível em mais de 60 países pela taxa de US$6 mensais ou de US$45 por ano. Link 6 - E a empresa de hospedagem de podcasts bCast, sediada em Londres, anunciou na última semana que vai encerrar as suas atividades. O motivo é que a receita gerada atualmente pela plataforma não está sendo suficiente pra cobrir todos os custos de operação. Pra quem não lembra ou não sabe, a bCast é uma empresa que teve uma expansão meteórica em 2020 e 2021, quando vendeu uma penca de serviços "vitalícios" pra produtores menores de podcast. Quando os fundadores perceberam que isso tinha sido um erro, tentaram ajustar o modelo de negócios de várias formas - inclusive voltando atrás no que venderam e tentando cobrar pelos planos vitalícios... O que gerou um auê. Eles foram tão criticados que acabaram voltando atrás até nisso, dizendo que iam procurar reduzir custos de outras fontes. Mas, infelizmente, isso não aconteceu, e eles não viram outra saída além de fechar a empresa. Os usuários do bCast têm até o dia 30 de agosto de 2024 para transferir seus podcasts para uma nova plataforma e redirecionar os seus feeds RSS pra um novo serviço. Boa sorte pra eles. Link E MAIS: 7 - A Acast divulgou o seu relatório financeiro do segundo trimestre de 2024, onde teve um crescimento de 24% nas vendas líquidas - um número que representa mais ou menos 44 milhões de dólares. Esse é o décimo aniversário da Acast como líder de mercado, hospedando mais de 125.000 podcasts e pagando mais de US$ 390 milhões pros seus criadores. A receita média por escuta aumentou 45%, mesmo com uma queda de 15% no total do número de escutas, que ainda é atribuída às mudanças no iOS 17 da Apple. Lembra que o aplicativo não faz mais download automático dos episódios? Então. A Acast também se destacou em uma pesquisa de mercado que mostrou quão alto anda o retorno sobre investimento de publicidade em podcasts. Pra resumir: em termos de mercado, esse foi um ótimo trimestre pra Acast, tanto financeiramente quanto em fortalecimento de marca. Link 8 - Na última semana de julho, o Pocket Casts lançou uma atualização com uma série de melhorias e novos recursos para aprimorar a UX do aplicativo. O destaque foi a criação da ferramenta Clip It & Share It (ou Compartilhamento de Clipes), com a qual os usuários podem criar e compartilhar trechos dos episódios de podcast. Essa função, que era muito solicitada pelos usuários, já está disponível no Web Player e nos aplicativos de desktop, e deve ficar disponível pra Android e iOS em breve. E, por falar no sistema da Apple, o aplicativo agora oferece novos widgets para acesso rápido a podcasts e episódios favoritos no iOS, além de também ter ajustado os limites de velocidade. Agora, o ouvinte pode ouvir com a velocidade de reprodução de até 5x, mas se o ouvinte não for um deficiente auditivo que tá acostumado a ouvir os áudios muito rápido - pra quem isso faria sentido -, pra qualquer outra pessoa isso seria coisa de maluco ou de psicopata. Ouvir em velocidade 5 do créu? Pra quê? Enfim, né, como tem louco pra tudo... Eu pretendo ficar só com o compartilhamento de cliques mesmo, ouvindo em 1x, obrigado. Link 9 - E é claro que aqui no Pod Notícias a gente faz, toda semana, um resumo de tudo que aconteceu de mais importante no mercado de podcasts, mas lá no nosso site sempre tem muito mais conteúdo que vale a pena conferir na íntegra. Na última semana, por exemplo, teve dicas de equipamento, artigo novo publicado pelos nossos colunistas e outras notícias que acabaram não entrando aqui no corte do programa, porque a gente tá noticiando muito e todos os dias. Então não deixa de acessar o nosso site em podnoticias.com.br pra conferir o review que a gente publicou de algumas câmeras da Sony, e também ler o texto: "Não sei entrevistar, então vou virar podcaster", que fala sobre aquela panelinha do podcast que a gente já tá cansado de saber quem é, e que faz umas entrevistas tão ruins que chegam a baixar a régua do jornalismo no podcast. Enfim, tem bastante coisa lá no site pra você. Os links diretos pro site vão estar, como sempre, na descrição desse episódio. Link / Link HOJE NO GIRO SOBRE PESSOAS QUE FAZEM A MÍDIA: 10 - A HBO está produzindo uma minissérie baseada no podcast "Praia dos Ossos" da Rádio Novelo, e já anunciou o elenco que vai participar da produção (e que elenco de peso, hein?). O podcast fala sobre o assassinato da socialite Ângela Diniz em 1976. A Ângela vai ser interpretada pela atriz Marjorie Estiano, enquanto Emilio Dantas vai fazer o papel do Doca Street, que é o ex-namorado e também o assassino da Ângela Diniz. Outros nomes ilustres que vão participar da série são Antônio Fagundes, Renata Gaspar e Thiago Lacerda. Por enquanto, a série não tem data de estreia definida, mas a gente já sabe que ela vai ter 6 episódios. Se você quiser saber mais sobre a produção, o elenco ou o podcast, não deixa de acessar a íntegra da matéria lá no nosso site. Link 11 - E na nossa Caixa de perguntas do Instagram na semana passada, a gente perguntou "se você pudesse participar como convidado de qualquer podcast, qual programa você escolheria e por quê?", e a gente recebeu algumas respostas muito boas e muito criativas, e a gente faz questão de ler aqui as três melhores respostas baseadas na nossa opinião, puramente: Eu queria participar do É Nóia Minha? pra ver se minha cabeça é forte o suficiente pra não sair com novas minhocas que a Camila Fremder falaria. Queria ir e levar o Richard Rasmussen pra Dentro da Cabeça do Vidane, pra descobrir se ele é feliz mesmo ou se é um animal que está em profundo sofrimento. O PodNipoBr no presencial, porque isso significa que eu consegui ir pro Japão. Muito boas respostas, mais uma vez o ouvinte do Pod Notícias tá de parabéns. Agora, pra essa semana, a pergunta é menos filosófica e mais prática: Você usa algum recurso de Inteligência Artificial no seu podcast? Se sim, qual? Como sempre, a caixinha vai ficar aberta nos stories do Instagram do Pod Notícias por apenas 24 horas, então não deixe de acessar lá ainda hoje pra deixar a sua participação, em @pod.noticias. Instagram do Pod Notícias 12  - E na edição de hoje, a primeira edição de Agosto de 2024, a nossa coluna mensal Podcast no Japão está de volta, apresentada pelo nosso querido amigo e colunista Carlinhos Vilaronga - pra quem eu passo a palavra. Diretamente do Japão, fala aí Carlinhos! Carlinhos: Olá Leo e olá ouvintes do Pod Notícias! Voltando aqui para compartilhar com vocês um panorama das atividades da comunidade brasileira de podcasters no Japão. No dia 24 de junho, na primeira edição do Brazilian Day na província de Gunma, a empresa de recursos humanos Kowa realizou uma ação para gerar interação e comunicar acolhimento aos visitantes do evento. A ação incluiu café, pão de queijo e uma mesa de podcast. Eu, particularmente, achei uma ótima escolha. Os episódios serão publicados em parceria com a Nabecast Podcasts & Multimedia. Link No dia 30 de junho, a ONG japonesa Dive.TV realizou, na cidade de Kariya, a Career Expo Sports, uma feira que apresentou possíveis caminhos na carreira do esporte no Japão. Todo o conteúdo foi ministrado em português e teve como público-alvo jovens estudantes brasileiros. O Mochiyori podcast esteve presente no evento e conversou com a fundadora da ONG e os profissionais convidados. Link No dia 2 de julho, a Nihon Web TV, uma iniciativa brasileira de conteúdo independente, anunciou a parceria com o podcast JápodCast, que é apresentado por Leandro Takahashi e Kelvin Nakashima. Macsael Oda, fundador da Nihon Web TV, em mensagem informou que: "O JápodCast entra para a programação da Nihon Web TV com o objetivo de enriquecer ainda mais a grade com conteúdos exclusivos". Fica aí o desejo de sucesso para essa parceria. Link No dia 20 de julho, foi realizada a oitava edição da Feira de Educação. A feira aconteceu na modalidade virtual e é uma iniciativa conjunta dos Consulados-Gerais do Brasil em Tóquio, Hamamatsu e Nagoya. A feira contou com a participação de instituições japonesas e brasileiras, e os apresentadores dos podcasts CastBrothers, Mochiyori e Saidera foram convidados a contribuir moderando painéis que discutiram ensino a distância, intercâmbio internacional e o cotidiano do estudante brasileiro na universidade japonesa. O conteúdo na íntegra pode ser acessado até 20 de agosto no site feiradeeducacao.com. Link / Link E pra encerrar minha participação de hoje, o Coletivo Podosfera Nipo-brasileira anunciou que a Semana Podosfera Nipo-brasileira 2024 será realizada a partir de 21 de outubro, o Dia Nacional do Podcast. O evento celebrará os 20 anos do podcast e contará com entrevistas, painéis e mesas de discussão. Mais informações serão compartilhadas em breve no perfil @podnipobr no Instagram. Instagram Podosfera Nipo-brasileira Obrigado ouvinte pela escuta. Carlinhos Vilaronga, da cidade de Kosai no Japão exclusivo para o Pod Notícias. Abraço a todos. SOBRE LANÇAMENTOS: 13 - Na última terça-feira, dia 30 de julho, foi ao ar o primeiro episódio do podcast Tábula Rasa, apresentado pelo Felipe Ferreira, e que fala sobre tudo o que você precisa saber pra envelhecer com dignidade: anti-etarismo, aposentadoria, recolocação profissional quando você é sênior e muito mais. O Felipe é um aposentado profissional, com muita experiência pra compartilhar sobre esses temas, e nessa primeira temporada vai trazer todas as perguntas que você precisa se fazer pra planejar uma aposentadoria que não seja compulsória. O Tabula Rasa é produzido aqui, pela Rádiofobia Podcast e Multimídia e publicado também pela Rádiofobia Podcast Network, e tem novos episódios publicados às terças-feiras em todas as principais plataformas de áudio. Se você, como eu (que acabei de completar 50 anos), também está pensando no seu plano de aposentadoria, não deixa de conferir. Link 14 - E em comemoração aos 15 anos do portal Tenho Mais Discos Que Amigos!, eles lançaram o TMDQA! Talks, o novo mesacast do portal, apresentado pelo Cesinha Ovalle, Tony, e Rafael Teixeira. No programa, eles vão trazer entrevistas e histórias exclusivas dos artistas convidados de cada episódio. A primeira temporada vai ter seis episódios no total, com nomes como Terno Rei, Rashid, Supercombo e Carol Biazin. Os episódios vão ao ar no Spotify, YouTube e no site do TMDQA!. Link RECOMENDAÇÃO NACIONAL: 15 - E a nossa recomendação nacional dessa semana, vai pra um podcast que desafia os estereótipos e amplia os horizontes no mundo das viagens: é o Viajante Sem Pauta, apresentado pelo nosso amigo e colega Cainã Ito. O programa, que já tem 5 anos de existência e mais de 100 episódios, leva o ouvinte pelos quatro cantos do mundo sem sair do lugar, falando sobre todo tipo de tema que surge na cabeça de um viajante que tá indo pela viagem, e não por pauta. Publicado a cada 15 dias mais ou menos, alguns dos temas que já foram falados no podcast foram: jornadas fotográficas, destinos seguros pra LGBT's, cortes de cabelo quando não se tem um barbeiro fixo, e muito mais. O podcast também tem um clube do livro e um grupo exclusivo com vários benefícios pros ouvintes mais engajados, que fazem o próprio projeto ser uma grande viagem. E vale dizer aqui, ele tá concorrendo ao Prêmio MPB na categoria "Viagem e Lazer". Então, se você ouvir e gostar, vale acessar o site da premiação e deixar o seu voto pra ajudar o Cainã. O Viajante Sem Pauta está disponível em todas as principais plataformas de podcast, então não deixa de conferir e de assinar no seu agregador favorito.

Olá, eu sou Leo Lopes e está no ar o POD NOTÍCIAS, a sua dose semanal de informação sobre o mercado de podcasts no Brasil e no mundo! Hoje é segunda-feira, dia 24 de junho de 2024 e esta é a nossa décima nona edição! Sabia que você pode anunciar a sua marca, produto ou serviço com a gente aqui no Pod Notícias e atingir um público qualificado que se interessa pelo podcast aqui no Brasil? Manda um e-mail pro contato@podnoticias.com.br, que nós vamos ter o maior prazer em conversar com você sobre todas as opções de publicidade. E caso você queira colaborar com a gente com texto, sugestão de pauta ou envio de notícias, também será muito bem-vindo e pode fazer isso através do mesmo e-mail. 1 - Na semana passada a gente comentou sobre como o podcast está tendo um crescimento constante de mercado, e hoje a gente vai dizer isso mais uma vez, porque um estudo recente sobre o consumo digital de notícias confirmou que audiência de podcasts também está crescendo no mundo todo. O relatório Digital News Report 2024 do Reuters Institute revelou que a audiência do áudio continua crescendo globalmente, especialmente entre jovens, pessoas instruídas e de classe média-alta. Notícias e Política são os temas mais populares entre os ouvintes homens. A pesquisa, que foi feita com mais de 95 mil pessoas em 47 países, destacou que o consumo das notícias está mudando, e que agora plataformas digitais como TikTok, YouTube e reels do Instagram têm um papel crucial na disseminação da informação. Infelizmente, essas mesmas ferramentas também tem um papel crucial na desinformação e propagação de fake news, bem como a de conteúdos sintéticos - que são aqueles criados por inteligências artificiais, e que não são confiáveis porque a base de dados das IA's costuma imitar o comportamento humano online, o que compromete a parcialidade da notícia. Por conta desses fatores, no mundo todo o interesse por notícias diminuiu e a evasão seletiva de notícias aumentou. Apesar disso, os podcasts continuam sendo uma mídia considerada "confiável". Pelo menos, muito mais do que as outras. Link 2 - Segundo a revista americana Vulture, os podcasts de bate-papo estão em alta mais uma vez, tanto pelo poder de "viralização", com alguns episódios batendo mais de 60 milhões de visualizações no YouTube, quanto pelo potencial que esse formato tem de criar discussões e gerar repercussão. E também não é a toa, porque foi desse pensamento aí que alguns charlatões da internet começaram a criar cortes de podcast fake pra tentar viralizar, mas enfim... De acordo com o crítico Nicholas Quah, a inclusão do vídeo aos podcasts foi um fator decisivo pra isso, já que os vídeos geram mais engajamento orgânico na internet. Só que ele também apontou que outro fator importante é a semelhança do formato com o rádio tradicional, que é uma mídia consolidada que sempre teve público - inclusive hoje em dia, claro. Os podcasts de bate-papo e entrevistas, em especial, emulam esse "feeling" da rádio tradicional, e por isso saem na frente na disputa com podcasts narrativos e documentais, por exemplo. Esses programas são líderes de audiência por conta do interesse do ouvinte nos convidados, a fama dos apresentadores, e as possíveis controvérsias que podem sair das conversas. A parte mais chatinha da análise, é que aparentemente não é mais necessário ter qualquer habilidade como entrevistador. Principalmente no caso dos programas que o host já é uma celebridade: se ele conseguir captar e reter a atenção do público, já tá bom. Aí, infelizmente a qualidade do conteúdo cai um pouco. Não tem o que fazer. Link 3 - E um estudo realizado na Suécia pela OMD e a Acast, revelou que cada dólar investido em publicidade em podcasts gera um retorno de US$4,90 em vendas aumentadas, com a publicidade em podcasts sendo a que tem o maior retorno de longo prazo entre outras mídias, como redes sociais e rádio. A análise cobriu um gasto total de publicidade de 2 bilhões de kronas suecos (SEK) entre 2021 e 2023, o que equivale a pouco mais de US$190 milhões. Segundo o estudo, os podcasts também se destacam como o melhor meio de publicidade para construção de marca e geração de vendas. Não que isso seja novidade pra gente, mas sempre vale a pena atualizar as informações no seu mídia kit, porque, afinal de contas, o fato é que podcast vende. Link AINDA EM NOTÍCIAS DA SEMANA: 4 - O governo da Áustria está ampliando o financiamento para meios de comunicação, que agora inclui rádios privadas e podcasts. Pela primeira vez, vai ser disponibilizado um subsídio de 500 mil euros (cerca de 540 mil dólares) especificamente pros podcasts, como parte de um aumento geral de 27 milhões de dólares para emissoras privadas. Representantes dos partidos ÖVP e Verdes criaram essa proposta do aumento do financiamento, defendendo a importância de apoiar e valorizar os produtos jornalísticos que surgiram na podosfera nos últimos anos, e que já produziam conteúdo de qualidade mesmo sem financiamento nenhum. A Associação de Emissoras Privadas Austríacas elogiou a iniciativa, ressaltando a importância desse financiamento para fortalecer a diversidade da mídia e também garantir informações baseadas em fatos, combatendo as informações descontroladas e falsas que têm surgido por lá, especialmente por ser ano de eleições na Áustria. E esse é só mais um exemplo do podcast mostrando o quanto tem credibilidade! Link 5 - A Justiça Federal determinou a suspensão de postagens de policiais em podcasts e videocasts no YouTube, por estarem, supostamente, disseminando discursos de ódio. A ação atende parcialmente aos pedidos do Ministério Público Federal (MPF) e da Defensoria Pública da União (DPU). A Polícia Militar do Rio de Janeiro foi notificada depois da publicação de reportagens do site Ponte Jornalismo sobre conteúdos violentos nesses canais. Os órgãos jurídicos solicitaram aos podcasts a exclusão dos trechos mencionados e também foi pedido ao Google para prevenir futuros casos. Além disso, foi pedido à Justiça que o Estado aplique medidas disciplinares aos policiais, que também podem ter que desembolsar até R$200 mil por danos morais coletivos, se perderem no processo. A decisão afetou os canais Copcast, Fala Glauber e Café com a Polícia. Bom pra lembrar que toda ação trás uma consequência e servidor público não pode sair falando bobagem por aí como se não fosse nada. Podcast não é terra sem lei. Link E MAIS: 6 - O Spotify for Podcasters anunciou na última semana uma atualização nos termos e condições de uso, que afeta tanto quem hospeda quanto quem distribui o seu podcast na plataforma. As principais mudanças incluem a necessidade de sinalizar podcasts com "conteúdo promocional", igual às exigências do YouTube, a remoção do feed RSS como método de entrega de conteúdo, e a redução dos requisitos de licenciamento, já que não existe mais a obrigatoriedade de exibir o aviso de direitos autorais do Spotify. Por enquanto, nada mudou no campo dos conteúdos criados por inteligência artificial, e aparentemente os conteúdos dos usuários não estão sendo usados pra treinamento de IA's. Menos mal. Além disso, os novos termos incluem cláusulas de litígio, que aumentaram os termos e condições em nada menos do que duas páginas inteiras. Se você quiser ler as mudanças na íntegra, o novo termo de uso está disponível no blog do Spotify. Link 7 - E o The Guardian teceu elogios ao Apple Podcasts pela sua nova ferramenta de transcrição. Segundo o portal, as transcrições além de acessíveis, são "um prazer de ler". A função foi desenvolvida para tornar os podcasts mais acessíveis, é claro, especialmente para pessoas com deficiência auditiva. Apesar do recurso ter sido lançado com atraso em relação a outras plataformas, como Amazon Music e Spotify, a Apple decidiu oferecer transcrições para todos os novos episódios de podcasts, sem limitar a funcionalidade a uma parte específica do catálogo. O desenvolvimento da ferramenta envolveu a colaboração de funcionários da Apple portadores de deficiência e outras organizações de pessoas com deficiência. As transcrições usam a tecnologia de sincronia de palavras da Apple Music e a tipografia da Apple Books para melhorar a legibilidade. Vários usuários e ativistas pelos direitos dos PCD's apoiaram a Apple por ter priorizado a precisão e qualidade das transcrições, mesmo que isso tenha levado mais tempo para ser implementado. Link 8 - E na última terça-feira, o Governo de Luanda lançou o podcast "Eu sou daqui", pra reforçar a interação do governo com a comunidade e abordar programas que estão em curso pelo estado. Na estreia, o podcast falou bastante sobre o potencial do turismo em Luanda, convidando os moradores a explorar os pontos turísticos e as histórias que tornam a capital da Angola um destino único. A primeira edição contou com a participação de Amélia Carlos Cazalma, docente universitária, e Ana Sofia Marta, CEO da Plataforma Digital Gotaze. Segundo o Governo Provincial de Luanda no Facebook, o podcast é um novo formato de comunicação para apresentar ao público programas como o de Reordenamento do Comércio, o Programa de Ordenamento do Trânsito e o Programa de Arborização de Luanda. Link HOJE NO GIRO SOBRE PESSOAS QUE FAZEM A MÍDIA: 9 - Na semana passada, a equipe do Amazon Music publicou quais são os 10 podcasts mais ouvidos no Brasil na plataforma. É uma lista eclética e que agrada todos os gostos, desde fofoca e comédia até política e finanças. Entre os mais populares, estão: Histórias da Firma;Caso Bizarro;Não Inviabilize;Inteligência Ltda;Modus Operandi,O Assunto do G1;Os Sócios Podcast; Entre outros programas, que também tem assuntos variados. Se você quiser ver a lista completa, pode conferir todos os nomes lá no Pod Notícias. O link, como sempre, vai estar na descrição desse episódio. Link 10 - O podcast Caso das 10 Mil, da Folha, foi premiado no International Women's Podcast Awards, na categoria de produções que não foram feitas em inglês. O programa foi a única produção brasileira a trazer um prêmio pra cá. A série mergulha fundo no maior processo por aborto do Brasil (que envolveu quase 10 mil mulheres, como o nome sugere) contando tudo sobre a queda de uma clínica em Campo Grande e as discussões intensas que vieram à seguir sobre os direitos reprodutivos no Brasil. A maior parte da equipe do podcast também é feminina: as repórteres Angela Boldrini e Carolina Moraes fizeram a pesquisa e investigação, a coordenação ficou por conta de Magé Flores, e a edição de som, com o Raphael Concli. Se você ainda não ouviu o Caso das 10 Mil e ficou interessado, o programa está disponível no site da Folha e em todas as principais plataformas de áudio. Link 11 - E nessa edição nós estamos de volta com o quadro 'O Podcast no Japão', trazendo as últimas novidades da Podosfera Nipo-Brasileira. No mês passado, a gente inaugurou este espaço apresentado pelo Carlinhos Vilaronga, da Nabecast, e hoje ele retorna para nos atualizar sobre as atividades e novidades dos podcasters brasileiros que moram no Japão. Bem-vindo de volta, meu amigo Carlinhos Vilaronga! CARLINHOS: Olá Leo, olá ouvintes!Retornando ao ao Pod Notícias para compartilhar com vocês um pouco do que rolou na Podosfera Nipo-brasileira nas últimas semanas. Educação e ciência.A Escola Alcance de Hamamatsu lançou no dia 04 de Maio um balão meteorológico. A iniciativa foi uma das atividades preparatórias para a Feira de Ciências realizada pela instituição no dia 25 de Maio. Contexto: a comunidade brasileira no Japão atualmente é de cerca de 210 mil pessoas. Para atender essa comunidade existem várias instituições de ensino. Porém, a Escola Alcance foi a primeira instituição de ensino brasileira a conseguir autorização para o lançamento de um balão meteorológico, o que fez da ocasião um marco para a comunidade. O podcast Mochiyori esteve presente no lançamento e entrevistou educadores, pais e alunos que participaram da atividade. LiteraturaNo dia 18 de Maio o jovem escritor Gabriel Caetano lançou o livro Sigma, Mono no Aware. O livro é parte da série "Os indomáveis", que é apresentada pelo autor como "Um universo de super-heróis brasileiros cheio de representatividade BR." A personagem principal da história é uma descendente de japoneses e parte da história se passa aqui no Japão. Em um momento da história ela visita uma grande festa brasileira que acontece por aqui e conhece um podcaster. Para não correr o risco de dar spoilers, vou para os comentários por aqui. Uma curiosidade é que a minha jornada pessoal com podcast foi a referência utilizada pelo autor para a criação da personagem e claro, fiquei surpreso e honrado ao ler a história e as considerações deixadas pelo autor no final do livro. Indicação:Para finalizar, gostaria de indicar o episódio 15 do podcast Tokyo Minds, que é apresentado pelo Sandro Nucitelli. Neste episódio ele entrevista o produtor de conteúdo Nicolas Hideo. Tem também participação especial do Kevin Macedo, conhecido nas redes sociais como Samurai Life JP. Em breve retorno com mais notícias da Podosfera Nipo-brasileira. Carlinhos Vilaronga da cidade de Kosai na província de Shizuoka, exclusivo para o Pod Notícias. SOBRE LANÇAMENTOS: 12 - Na última quinta-feira foi ao ar o podcast Plano Real – Histórias não contadas. O programa apresenta em seis episódios os bastidores e a consolidação do Plano Real, com relatos de seus idealizadores como Edmar Bacha, Gustavo Franco e Gustavo Loyola. O jornalista Carlos Alberto Sardenberg conduz as conversas, falando desde a inesperada nomeação de Fernando Henrique Cardoso para o Ministério da Fazenda, até os desafios que foram enfrentados durante a execução do plano. É um conteúdo bem interessante pra quem quer entender melhor sobre a história da economia brasileira. O podcast é lançado todas as quintas-feiras no site da CBN e nas principais plataformas de podcast. Link 13 - E também na semana passada foram lançados dois podcasts pra públicos bastante específicos: o Mexe o Balaio, sobre dança, e o Hora Rubra, sobre o universo de Star Trek. O Mexe o Balaio estreou no 19 de junho com Tiago Banha e Ingrid Lago como apresentadores, colocando a dança e seus profissionais como os protagonistas da conversa, especialmente na cena de dança de Salvador. O podcast é financiado pelo Governo do Estado da Bahia. Já no Hora Rubra, o papo foi sobre temas recentes, como a iminente estreia da segunda temporada de Star Trek: Prodigy na Netflix, e a recepção a Star Wars: The Acolyte. Os dois podcasts já estão no ar, e é claro que os links pros programas vão estar na descrição desse episódio. Mexe o Balaio / Hora Rubra RECOMENDAÇÃO NACIONAL: 14 - E na semana passada a gente combinou que a recomendação nacional dessa semana seria feita por: você! A gente convidou você, nosso ouvinte, a indicar pra nós o SEU podcast na nossa Caixinha de Perguntas do Instagram. E aqui no Pod Notícias, promessa feita é promessa cumprida. Então nossas recomendações nacionais dessa semana, vão para os podcasts: Casul Cast Cognamentos Corrida on Demand Espinha de Peixe #FalaJFAL, da Justiça Federal do Alagoas Mão na Orelha Papo Delas Pedra Papel e Podcast Pés Descalços FC Rádio Guilhotina E só não tem mais indicações porque mais pessoas não interagiram na nossa Caixinha de Perguntas. Então, quando tiver a próxima oportunidade, corre lá, porque ela fica disponível por 24 horas. Como sempre, todos os links dos programas indicados vão estar na descrição desse episódio.

Olá, eu sou Leo Lopes e está no ar o POD NOTÍCIAS, a sua dose semanal de informação sobre o mercado de podcasts no Brasil e no mundo! Hoje é segunda-feira, dia 13 de maio de 2024 e esta é a nossa décima terceira edição! Sabia que você pode anunciar com a gente aqui no Pod Notícias? Se você tem uma marca, produto ou serviço e quer atingir um público qualificado que se interessa pelo podcast aqui no Brasil, manda um e-mail pra gente no contato@podnoticias.com.br, que a gente vai ter o maior prazer em conversar com você. Além disso, se você quiser colaborar com a gente, mandar texto, mandar pauta, também é muito bem-vindo, e pode fazer isso através do mesmo e-mail. 1 - A gente começa a edição de hoje com uma análise mundial sobre o podcasting que colocou o Brasil em evidência: de acordo com os dados mais recentes da empresa YouGov de pesquisa em marketing, os ouvintes de podcast em 2024 se comportam de formas muitos diversas ao redor do globo. Em geral, de todos os consumidores entrevistados no mundo, 40% afirmaram que ouvem podcasts por mais de uma hora por semana, e cerca de 10% dos entrevistados dedicam mais de 10 horas semanais a esse tipo de conteúdo. Quando a gente foca na pesquisa que foi feita na América Latina, os destaques são o Brasil e o México, já que quase metade dos mexicanos e brasileiros são ouvintes assíduos de podcast - são 48% no México e 44% aqui. Os colombianos aparecem um pouco atrás, com 37% da população sendo ouvinte. Aqui no Brasil, considerando que o país tem mais de 200 milhões de pessoas, o número de ouvintes de podcast é de aproximadamente 90 milhões. Com esse número de ouvintes, o Brasil garante fácil a liderança na América Latina. Agora a meta é ser campeão mundial! Link 2 - E olha só o alerta de processinho: na semana passada o apresentador Andrew Hickey, do podcast "A History of Rock in 500 Songs" anunciou que o seu podcast estava sendo plagiado em outra língua. Segundo ele, um outro podcaster conhecido como "Capitão Diligaf" estava copiando o seu conteúdo e traduzindo pro francês. E não é só isso, o podcast que supostamente plagia o conteúdo do Andrew, tem uma página no Patreon que está monetizando esse conteúdo a mais de 2 anos. O Hickey ainda falou que não é só uma questão de se inspirar, mas de copiar na cara dura mesmo, palavra por palavra. Pra deixar a situação do Diligaf ainda mais complicada, isso tá acontecendo até com o conteúdo premium do podcast do Andrew, que ele disponibiliza pros seus ouvintes através de assinatura. Com isso, o Andrew deu um ultimato pro cara: ele tinha até segunda-feira - que no caso é hoje - pra tirar os episódios plagiados do ar e pedir desculpas publicamente. Se isso não acontecesse, medidas legais seriam tomadas. Até o momento do fechamento desse episódio, o Diligaf não deu nenhuma declaração sobre as acusações de plágio, mas desativou a sua conta do Twitter. E quem tá na internet a tempo suficiente, já sabe que isso não é lá o melhor sinal de inocência... Link 3 - E o ranking do Podtrac sobre as empresas de podcast mais influentes de abril de 2024, já está disponível para consulta no site. Alguns destaques das classificações desse mês, foram que a Libsyn foi incluída no ranking dos Estados Unidos; a empresa US UMA teve o maior aumento entre todos os participantes do ranking, comparado ao mês anterior; a rede global Sonoro teve um bom desempenho em downloads, streams e visualizações globais comparado a março; e o selo iHeart agora está listado como o número 1 no ranking global, com mais de 50% de vantagem sobre o Acast, que era o líder anterior. Nos Estados Unidos, a Libsyn Ads estreou em terceiro lugar entre os editores, enquanto o podcast The Daily reassumiu o primeiro lugar de mais ouvido, superando o News Now da NPR - que tinha desbancado o Daily no ranking passado. Mais uma vez, os podcasts mais escutados do mundo foram sobre notícia e geopolítica. Link AINDA EM NOTÍCIAS DA SEMANA: 4 - Foi lançado no dia 7 de maio o programa de rádio "Comunicação Universitária em Rede - Emergência Climática Rio Grande do Sul", produzido por um coletivo de universidades federais. O programa é transmitido ao vivo do estúdio da Rádio UF São Carlos, das cinco às cinco e meia da tarde, e depois é disponibilizado como podcast nos agregadores, podendo ser compartilhado com emissoras públicas de todo o país. A iniciativa é uma mobilização de cientistas e da comunidade das Instituições Federais de Educação Superior, e o objetivo do projeto é fornecer informações diárias sobre a situação climática no Rio Grande do Sul, incluindo previsões do tempo, cuidados com a saúde e formas de contribuir com doações e trabalho voluntário - além de combater as fake news que surgem no cenário da tragédia. Sugestões de pautas e informações úteis para o programa podem ser enviadas pra eles por e-mail ou pelo WhatsApp. Você também pode seguir o núcleo de informação da Universidade Federal de São Carlos no Instagram, no arroba @ufscaroficial e acompanhar sempre que um novo episódio for postado. Link 5 - E ainda falando sobre esse assunto, que infelizmente não parece estar perto de acabar, o podcast Café da Manhã discutiu essa semana a atenção à saúde mental durante tragédias climáticas, como a do Rio Grande do Sul, que já teve mais de 113 óbitos até agora. Conforme tem sido noticiado, o sistema de saúde do Rio Grande do Sul está sobrecarregado, com hospitais fechados e dificuldades de acesso aos pacientes. Especialistas alertaram que é possível que haja falta de remédios e insumos básicos nos hospitais, além do aumento de doenças causadas pela exposição à água impura. Nesse contexto, o episódio da última quarta-feira do Café da Manhã entrevistou os psicólogos Lucas Bandinelli e Júlia Schäfer, que fazem parte de um grupo que têm desenvolvido protocolos para assistência à saúde mental. A iniciativa envolve o Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre, a Sociedade Brasileira de Psicologia, a Associação de Psiquiatras do Rio Grande do Sul e o Telessaúde RS. Esse e outros episódios do Café da Manhã estão disponíveis em todos os principais agregadores de áudio e no site da Folha de São Paulo. Link 6 - De acordo com o monitoramento do Buzzsprout, o Spotify alcançou a posição de plataforma de podcast mais popular em termos de downloads. Embora o Spotify sempre tenha sido reconhecido como líder em número de ouvintes, essa mudança nos downloads é um marco, porque foi a primeira vez que ele ultrapassou o Apple Podcasts nesse aspecto. O Apple Podcasts, por padrão, sempre fez o download dos episódios automaticamente, o que torna essa conquista do Spotify ainda mais notável. No entanto, não dá pra esquecer que o Apple Podcasts mudou a automação dos downloads nas últimas atualizações, e isso com certeza impactou nesse resultado. Segundo uma análise do Podnews, o Spotify representa hoje 36% dos 108 milhões de downloads mensais registrados pelo Buzzsprout, seguido pelo Apple Podcasts com 33%. Link E MAIS: 7 - O podcast já foi uma mídia dominada por homens, mas nós estamos acompanhando a revolução feminina no áudio. Vários programas femininos estão tendo tanto sucesso, que batem de frente com as mídias tradicionais, inclusive a TV. Esses podcasts, mais íntimos e descontraídos, estabelecem uma conexão muito genuína com o público, especialmente o feminino, e cada vez mais podcasts produzidos por mulheres vão sendo criados. Um exemplo bem claro disso é a Natália Ariede, ex-repórter da Globo, que decidiu se retirar da TV pra investir no seu podcast, "Você Não É Todo Mundo". E lembrando aqui: a Natália tinha 17 anos de trabalho na TV. Não é pouca coisa, não. O podcast é produzido em parceria com a Globo e está disponível em várias plataformas digitais, falando de assuntos como parentalidade e desafios vividos por pais e mães. Embora ela tenha admitido que sente um pouco de falta de trabalhar na TV, a Natália não se arrepende de ter pedido demissão e migrado para o podcast, que é uma mídia que deu pra ela mais autonomia e liberdade profissional. Link / Link 8 - Se você é um usuário do PocketCasts no iOS, pode ter experimentado na semana passada alguns crashes no aplicativo, e vários períodos de instabilidade. Os problemas foram percebidos por vários ouvintes, e prontamente identificados pela equipe de desenvolvimento do app. Os desenvolvedores do Pocketcasts, que já são conhecidos pela dedicação à experiência do usuário e posicionamento nas redes, ao serem informados dos bugs, começaram a trabalhar na mesma hora para restaurar a funcionalidade do aplicativo. Depois de um tempo, a equipe anunciou via X (Twitter) que parte do problema foi resolvido com uma atualização recente do aplicativo. Então se você não atualizou o PocketCasts e ainda está com esse problema, já sabe como tentar resolver. Link 9 - E agora uma notícia "É mole?" que veio direto do mundo esportivo. O jogador de basquete dos Bucks, Patrick Beverley, fez manchetes na última semana por ter se recusado a dar entrevistas a repórteres que não fossem inscritos no podcast dele. E de acordo com Jack Maloney, redator da NBA e da CBS Sports, isso não é algo novo; parece que o Patrick já tinha, mais de uma vez, se recusado a falar com qualquer pessoa da sua equipe em Milwaukee que não fosse assinante do seu podcast. A controvérsia começou logo depois de uma derrota decisiva dos Bucks para os Pacers. No vestiário, o Patrick estava respondendo à pergunta de um repórter, quando ele mesmo se interrompeu e perguntou pra uma produtora da ESPN: “Você assina meu podcast?”. A produtora, Malinda Adams, disse que não - e ele se recusou a continuar a entrevista. Todo mundo ficou tão indignado, que os colegas de trabalho e a própria ESPN se manifestaram nas redes dando apoio à Malinda. Alguns dias depois, o Beverley acabou pedindo desculpas. Então fica a dica: talvez a pressão não seja a melhor forma de conseguir novos ouvintes pro seu podcast. Link HOJE NO GIRO SOBRE PESSOAS QUE FAZEM A MÍDIA: 10 - A gente tá vendo em tempo real o impacto que as mudanças climáticas estão causando, com as enchentes do Rio Grande do Sul e agora também no Maranhão. Esse é o momento em que todos devem ajudar as vítimas de todas as formas possíveis, e a podosfera brasileira não está decepcionando. Ao longo de toda a semana passada, várias personalidades do podcast no Brasil usaram as suas plataformas pra divulgar informações, organizações governamentais e não-governamentais, criar vaquinhas e oferecer trabalho voluntário no resgate das vítimas: Déia Freitas, os meninos do PodPah, a Ira Croft, o Jovem Nerd, nós mesmos da Rádiofobia... Felizmente é tanto nome, que não daria pra falar de todo mundo nesse programa. Você também pode fazer a sua parte. O governo do Rio Grande do Sul está recebendo doações em PIX, organizações como a SOS Enchente também estão, e caso você não possa contribuir com dinheiro, sempre pode separar aquelas roupas que não usa mais, alguns produtos de limpeza que não estiver usando, galões de água potável, e deixar na agência dos Correios mais próxima. Lembrando que o mínimo pra nós pode ser o máximo pra quem precisa, então vamos ajudar. Link 11 -  Quem acompanha o Pod Notícias já sabe que os podcasters brasileiros que moram no Japão são extremamente unidos, formando o chamado coletivo Podosfera Nipo-Brasileira. O podcast no Japão tem tido cada vez mais atividades, então hoje a gente vai inaugurar um novo quadro mensal aqui no Pod Notícias, chamado "O Podcast no Japão", produzido e apresentado pelo meu amigo Carlinhos Vilaronga, da Nabecast! Fala, Carlinhos! CARLINHOS: Olá Leo e amigos do Pod Notícias!Passando para compartilhar um pouco do que aconteceu na podosfera brasileira no Japão durante as primeiras semanas de primavera. Summit Japan Br:No dia 7 de abril, a cidade de Chiryu, em Aichi, recebeu o Summit Japan Br.A atriz Danni Suzuki foi a convidada especial do evento e durante o ciclo de palestras dividiu o palco com empresários, empreendedores e educadores brasileiros da comunidade brasileira no Japão.Entre as mídias parceiras, estavam o videocast CastBrother e a Nabecast, produtora especializada em podcasts em áudio. O que é um sinal de que o podcast já conquistou seu espaço na comunicação entre os brasileiros no Japão. Exposição Arte Brasil 2024:Entre os dias 9 e 14 de abril, a cidade de Hamamatsu, em Shizuoka, foi palco da Exposição Arte Brasil 2024.A exposição é uma iniciativa do Coletivo Arte Brasil. O podcast Mochiyori que aborda temas como bem-estar e desenvolvimento pessoal esteve no evento e gravou vários episódios conversando com os artistas. Pod'Café - Edição de Primavera:No domingo, dia 14 de abril, no horário do Japão, rolou a edição de primavera do Pod'Café. O encontro é uma iniciativa do Coletivo Podosfera Nipo-brasileira.A publicitária Nina Morelli, fundadora da Agência Onda, bateu um papo com podcasters e empreendedores, compartilhando informações e conceitos para ajudar com planejamento estratégico da comunicação nas redes sociais. Para finalizar, registro aqui meus parabéns às equipes dos podcasts Dropzilla e Otaku no Kissaten por terem ultrapassado nas últimas semanas a marca de 100 episódios publicados. Carlinhos Vilaronga da cidade de Kosai na província de Shizuoka, exclusivo para o Pod Notícias. Link SOBRE LANÇAMENTOS: 12 - O jornalista e artista Daniel Setti lançou o podcast Do vinil ao streaming: 60 anos em 60 discos, baseado no seu livro de mesmo nome, publicado pela Autêntica Editora em 2023. O podcast apresenta seis episódios dedicados a álbuns icônicos do pop internacional das últimas seis décadas, falando sobre a história e a importância desses trabalhos pra música. No programa, são apresentados diversos gêneros musicais, rock, indie, enfim, e são exploradas as conexões entre a arte, a sonoridade e o contexto histórico e social de cada álbum - e década. O podcast já está disponível em todas as principais plataformas de áudio. Link 13 - E o Canal Saúde também lançou o seu novo podcast, o Giro Saúde, em formato jornalístico. O programa faz um apanhado das principais notícias da área da saúde, em parceria com o Ministério da Saúde e a Agência Fiocruz de Notícias. Os episódios vão ter mais ou menos 15 minutos de duração, com informações atualizadas até o final da semana, disponível nas principais plataformas de áudio e no site do Canal Saúde. Além disso, o podcast também vai ser divulgado no Boletim da Agência Fiocruz toda sexta-feira. No primeiro episódio já foi falado sobre a expansão da vacinação contra a gripe, o panorama da dengue no Brasil e o prazo para adoção do novo padrão de rótulos de alimentos. Não deixa de conferir, porque informação sobre saúde pública nunca é demais. Link RECOMENDAÇÃO NACIONAL: 14 - E a nossa recomendação nacional desta semana é também um convite pra um pouco de reflexão e muito bom humor: é o podcast Nu Aleatório, apresentado pelo Paulo Lima e pelo Marco Túlio. Esses dois são brasileiros que vivem em Portugal e mergulham em todo tipo de assunto fora do comum. Além disso, eles se descrevem como apaixonados por música, escrita e comédia stand-up. Os papos do Nu Aleatório já foram de filósofos da Grécia antiga, até uma realidade paralela onde a internet deixou de existir. Pra você ver que "aleatório" não é só no nome, não. O Nu Aleatório é um podcast que - segundo os apresentadores! - você não pediu, provavelmente não precisava, mas que você merece. O programa está disponível em todas as principais plataformas de áudio e também no YouTube. Link E assim a gente fecha esta décima terceira edição do Pod Notícias.

In this podcast, Marcus talks to Kane Talbot from Hamamatsu Photonics and we focus on their innovative technology and why this enables performance advantages.Hamamatsu Photonics is one of the only companies in the world that develops a wide range of both light sensors, such as photomultiplier tubes and photodiodes, and light sources such as lasers, LEDs, and measurement lamps. The components they manufacture measure and generate not only visible light, but also ultra-low, ultraviolet, infrared, and x-ray light. Hamamatsu Photonics has developed a "Complete Proposal for Innovative Printing", using their optical technologies to make a range of solutions for a variety of printing applications.  The demand for higher speeds, quality and value in printing markets has been increasing in recent years and Hamamatsu has come face to face with numerous challenges with their customers and aims to solve them with the know-how accumulated during that time.   Kane Talbot, who is leading the printing business in the UK, will be delivering a talk at FuturePrint TECH entitled, OPTIMISING UV-LEDS FOR INDUSTRIAL INKJET APPLICATIONS.Kane Talbot graduated with a Masters degree in Physics from Loughborough University in 2016. Since then, he has been working as part of the Hamamatsu Photonics team, helping provide optical solutions to customers for a large variety of industrial application areas. A key area of his work involves working with the printing market to optimise for a wide range of applications across the entire printing process.

In 2014 Bike Magazine's Hugo Wilson and John Westlake formed two thirds of a three-rider team that rode a V-Strom 1000 from their offices in Peterborough, in the UK, back to the factory it was assembled at in Hamamatsu, Japan. Chris Moss talks to the pair about the journey, the boozy planning session, losing luggage, and imposter syndrome when being met by the welcome party at the factory.

Segunda-feira, 6 de março de 2023. Eu sou Leo Lopes e está no ar o quinto episódio do Castnews, o podcast semanal de notícias para podcasters. Aqui você ouve, toda segunda-feira pela manhã, um resumo das principais notícias sobre o mercado de podcast no Brasil e no mundo. A nova identidade do Castnews, Spreaker de graça e com novos recursos, e o primeiro podcast escolar de Belém do Pará. Essas e outras notícias você vai ouvir na edição desta semana do Castnews! NOTÍCIAS 01 – Não que você já não deva ter reparado, mas o Castnews está de cara nova! O pandinha no envelope não está mais entre nós. A nossa nova identidade visual foi implantada oficialmente na última quinta-feira, 2 de março, tanto no portal do Castnews quanto aqui, no nosso podcast semanal. O design novo é criação do Fauser Ramos, que fez um trabalho excepcional em mostrar quem nós somos hoje. Eu e meu amigo Renato Bontempo estamos muito satisfeitos com a nova identidade do Castnews, que veio pra marcar essa nova fase, com a parceria entre mim e o Renato, e entre a Rádiofobia Podcast e Multimídia e o Bicho de Goiaba Podcasts. A identidade atual tá bem ligada à nossa intenção de entregar hard news e conteúdo de qualidade, selecionado pros nossos ouvintes e leitores. Lá no nosso site você vai encontrar tamém uma palhinha do manual da marca, com mais detalhes sobre as escolhas do Fauser e o resultado final da nova cara do Castnews. Mas e você? Gostou da nossa nova identidade? Comenta lá nas nossas redes sociais, deixa a sua opinião, que a gente vai ficar bem feliz em saber o que foi que você achou. Ler a notícia completa 02 – O Spreaker está trazendo duas grandes novidades de uma única vez. A maior delas, é que a empresa anunciou que agora é gratuita. Os criadores vão poder usar a plataforma de podcast inteira do Spreaker a custo ZERO – sem limitação. Além disso, o Spreaker e o Musixmatch fecharam uma nova parceria: a tecnologia de transcrição de áudio do Musixmatch vai ser integrada no Spreaker. Com essa colaboração, nas próximas semanas, os criadores hospedados no Spreaker vão poder transcrever automaticamente seus podcasts em textos, e permitir mais acessibilidade aos ouvintes que tenham qualquer tipo de limitação – seja auditiva, seja por não ser fluente no áudio original do podcast, enfim… Mais uma ferramenta que está chegando aí pra otimizar a produção de podcasts acessíveis. E, como mencionado no começo, totalmente de graça. Ler a notícia completa – Spreaker e Musicxmach Ler a notícia completa – Spreaker gratuito 03 – A iVoox, uma empresa pioneira em hospedagem de podcasts em espanhol, começou essa semana com uma iniciativa bem legal. É o Sónar, um programa de divulgação de podcasts promissores, que ainda não têm um público consolidado e que são feitos de forma independente. A cada três meses, o Sónar vai fazer a seleção de quatro programas publicados na plataforma, e esses quatro vão receber uma campanha poderosa de divulgação entre os mais de 5 milhões de usuários da plataforma. A iniciativa saiu do iVoox Creators, o programa de criadores de conteúdo da iVoox. O objetivo do Sónar é promover os podcasters, gerar comunidades engajadas com esses programas escolhidos, e dar visibilidade para esses conteúdos que merecem receber novos ouvintes. Ler a notícia completa AINDA EM NOTÍCIAS DA SEMANA 04 – Desde o primeiro episódio do Castnews, a gente esteve especulando se o Google Podcasts iria acabar. A discussão sobre o assunto começou lá em janeiro de 2022, porque na ocasião os podcasts foram anunciados como uma meta do YouTube pra 2022. Essa pauta voltou a ser assunto quente no final do ano, quando as pesquisas no Google por “podcasts” pararam de linkar para o Google Podcasts. Depois do anúncio oficial de que os podcasts agora vão fazer parte do Youtube Music (que a gente inclusive noticiou aqui no episódio passado), parecia que o destino do Google Podcasts estava selado. Mas, pelo jeito, não é bem assim. Nessa última semana, um porta-voz do Google esclareceu que a empresa não pensa em misturar os podcasts do Youtube e o Youtube Music com o Google Podcasts, porque o foco destes é os mesacasts – os podcasts em áudio e vídeo. O Google Podcasts, então, parece que vai seguir em atividade focando nos podcasts tradicionais em áudio. Ler a notícia completa 05 – Chegamos naquele momento “é mole?” das notícias da semana. Se você tem Twitter, Facebook, Instagram ou TikTok provavelmente já recebeu aí na sua timeline algum vídeo com cortes fakes de podcast. É isso mesmo que você ouviu: a nova moda entre os auto-proclamados “influencers digitais”, é gravar vídeos em modelo shorts, tiktok e reels, simulando uma conversa em um podcast. Ou seja, a pessoa grava um vídeo – geralmente na vertical – conversando com um microfone na frente e olhando pra fora do enquadramento da câmera, como se estivesse conversando com um apresentador. Só que não tem ninguém aí. Eles fazem esse teatrinho na intenção de viralizar, mesmo. Tem alguns, inclusive, que estão dizendo isso: “Se hoje em dia você não é o convidado de algum podcast, ninguém mais presta atenção no que você está falando”. Será que é verdade? Ler a notícia completa 06 – E agora uma notícia que enche o nosso coração podcaster de calor e orgulho: o podcast está sendo utilizado como ferramenta de ensino em uma escola de Belém do Pará. O CESINCast é um podcast escolar ministrado pelo professor Victor Estácio e produzido pelos alunos do ensino fundamental da escola CESIN. O projeto começou lá em em 2019, foi engavetado durante a pandemia, e voltou à ativa quando as recomendações sanitárias permitiram. No CESINCast as crianças batem papo e debatem sobre assuntos da grade escolar, expandem a fala, desenvolvem habilidades socioemocionais, responsabilidade de conteúdo, e também  aprendem mais sobre empatia, atenção e controle social. O CESINCast está disponível nas principais plataformas de áudio, e é um projeto fenomenal, que com certeza merece ser replicado em outras – senão todas – escolas pelo Brasil. Ler a notícia completa E MAIS 07 – Ainda estamos na onda de inteligências artificiais produzindo podcasts. Hoje vamos falar mais um pouquinho do ChatGPT, que tem sido um tema de conversa muito recorrente na podosfera. Para os podcasters e editores de podcast que usam o Reaper ou outros softwares que trabalham com scripts de ação, o ChatGPT pode criar esses scripts por você! Uma mão na roda pra quem tem pouco tempo, ou que quer automatizar ainda mais o processo de produção – e tem tutorial lá no portal do Castnews sobre como fazer isso. Eu, por aqui, continuo fazendo na mão mesmo. Vai que esse robô rouba meu podcast? Ler a notícia completa 08 – Nós fomos destaques no ‘HojePod', coluna do nosso querido Marcelo Abud, no programa ‘Olá Curiosos' que vai ao ar todos os sábados às 10h no canal ‘Guia dos Curiosos‘, no YouTube. O Marcelo Abud conversou com o apresentador Marcelo Duarte sobre a equipe do Castnews, contou um pouco da minha trajetória e da Rádiofobia, e fez elogios à produção deste nosso podcast. Ficamos muito honrados com a menção, e aproveito aqui pra mandar um abração tanto pro Abud, quanto pro Duarte. Ler a notícia completa SOBRE LANÇAMENTOS: 09 – Na semana em que é celebrado o Dia Mundial das Doenças Raras, a Radioagência Nacional lançou o podcast da série “Histórias Raras“. São três episódios que acompanham a vida de pessoas reais que têm doenças raras, desde que elas descobrem essas doenças, até a busca por visibilidade dessas condições. O Histórias Raras tem um enredo muito original e está disponível no Spotify. Ler a notícia completa 10 – Também na semana passada estreou o ‘Papo de Elevador', um novo quadro dentro do podcast Você também Pod!cast, da Nabecast Podcasts. O Papo vai ter episódios curtinhos em que o Carlinhos Vilaronga, apresentador do podcast, que mora lá em Hamamatsu no Japão, vai entrevistar gente como a gente: podcasters. Então já vai lá e assina o Papo de Elevador no seu agregador preferido para pegar todas as dicas do Carlinhos que com certeza vão sair dessas conversas descontraídas. Ler a notícia completa RECOMENDAÇÕES NACIONAIS: 11 – Você é fascinado pelo universo? Sempre gostou de conhecer mais sobre planetas, sistemas solares, galáxias e o espaço sideral? Gosta de conteúdo científico, mas não é muito fã de linguagem acadêmica? Então a recomendação de podcast dessa semana vai melhorar o seu dia. Estou falando do podcast Astronomia em Meia Hora, da Camila Esperança. A Camila é uma astrônoma que faz um trabalho muito interessante e tenta montar o quebra-cabeça do universo junto com os ouvintes do podcast, em palavras simples – que é pra não fritar a cabeça de ninguém. O programa é sim muito didático, mas é divertido, encantador e estimulante, e está disponível em todas as principais plataformas de podcast. Com certeza vale o seu play e a sua atenção.

Transaktionen zwischen verbundenen Unternehmen eines Konzerns haben ihren Verrechnungspreis, der in der Praxis zum Jahresende sehr häufig angepasst wird, um eine aus steuerlicher Sicht sachgerechte Gewinnverteilung sicherzustellen. Der Zollwert entspricht dem Wert zur Zeit der Einfuhr der Ware. Nachträgliche Anpassungen des Zollwerts sind laut BFH nicht zulässig. Dies führt nun zu Spannungen zwischen Zoll und Verrechnungspreisen und einem Interessenskonflikt mit Folgeeffekten für die Steuerplanung von Unternehmen. Nicht erst, aber verstärkt mit dem Ende des letzten Jahres veröffentlichten BFH Urteil zum Fall von Hamamatsu. Warum dies so ist, beschreiben Marc Steinmüller und Frank-Peter Ziegler unter Leitung von Sophia Schuhmann in unserer Folge zu einem lang erwarteten Urteil und den nun bereits spürbaren Veränderungen und formulieren die Vision, dass ein identischer Preis nur bei gut austarierten Verrechnungspreisen zu erreichen sein kann. Dies bedingt eine gute Kommunikation mit den involvierten Behörden und dem Einsatz von entsprechenden Systemen.

From London Temporada 28: El programa de esta semana de La Luz del Misterio, en London Radio World, en el primer tramo hemos hablado de el hallazgo de una esfera de grandes dimensiones en la ciudad costera de Hamamatsu, unos 200 kilómetros al suroeste de Tokio, ha desatado una ola de especulaciones. Las autoridades locales, la policía y el escuadrón antibombas despachados a la playa de Enshuhama para investigar el objeto desconocen de qué se trata. Y más tarde hablaremos sobre la delirante historia del 'viajero del tiempo' que asegura que esta primavera los extraterrestres invadirán la Tierra.Un escenario que ha resultado clave para el tiktoker Eno Alaric, un usuario que asegura ser un ‘viajero del tiempo’ que proviene del año 2671 y que realiza regularmente premoniciones de eventos que aún no han sucedido. Para más tarde realizar un apasionante ruta conociendo los misterios y la magia que asola en el país más pequeño del Magreb, ubicado entre las estribaciones orientales de la cordillera montañosa del Atlas y el mar Mediterráneo. Un viaje guiados por Ángel Crespo que no te dejará indiferente.

From London Temporada 28: El programa de esta semana de La Luz del Misterio, en London Radio World, en el primer tramo hemos hablado de el hallazgo de una esfera de grandes dimensiones en la ciudad costera de Hamamatsu, unos 200 kilómetros al suroeste de Tokio, ha desatado una ola de especulaciones. Las autoridades locales, la policía y el escuadrón antibombas despachados a la playa de Enshuhama para investigar el objeto desconocen de qué se trata. Y más tarde hablaremos sobre la delirante historia del 'viajero del tiempo' que asegura que esta primavera los extraterrestres invadirán la Tierra.Un escenario que ha resultado clave para el tiktoker Eno Alaric, un usuario que asegura ser un ‘viajero del tiempo’ que proviene del año 2671 y que realiza regularmente premoniciones de eventos que aún no han sucedido. Para más tarde realizar un apasionante ruta conociendo los misterios y la magia que asola en el país más pequeño del Magreb, ubicado entre las estribaciones orientales de la cordillera montañosa del Atlas y el mar Mediterráneo. Un viaje guiados por Ángel Crespo que no te dejará indiferente.

Je sais que c'est un peu tôt pour déjà penser au jeudredi, mais je te parle de bière, ce matin... Pourtant, pas de quoi trinquer alors qu'arrive le premier anniversaire de la guerre en Ukraine. Hormis un étrange plan de paix proposé par la Chine, la rhétorique actuelle est toujours plus militaire. Même les CFF ont l'intention de s'équiper de caméras perfectionnées pour te traquer dans les gares, et ça ne plaît pas à tout le monde, même s'ils se veulent plutôt rassurants. Et dans les collèges et lycées français l'heure sera plutôt au recueillement, aujourd'hui avec une minute de silence en hommage à la prof poignardée à mort, hier, par un élève de 16 ans dans le sud-ouest. Et puis si, toi aussi, tu te demandes ce que c'est que cette grosse boule mystérieuse découverte hier au Japon, sur une plage de Hamamatsu. Un peu de patience, Julie t'expliquera tout demain…

Characterisation of the MUSIC ASIC for large-area silicon photomultipliers for gamma-ray astronomy by Nicolas De Angelis et al. on Tuesday 29 November Large-area silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) are desired in many applications where large surfaces have to be covered. For instance, a large area SiPM has been developed by Hamamatsu Photonics in collaboration with the University of Geneva, to equip gamma-ray cameras employed in imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Being the sensor about 1 cm$^2$, a suitable preamplification electronics has been investigated in this work, which can deal with long pulses induced by the large capacitance of the sensor. The so-called Multiple Use SiPM Integrated Circuit (MUSIC), developed by the ICCUB (University of Barcelona), is investigated as a potential front-end ASIC, suitable to cover large area photodetection planes of gamma-ray telescopes. The ASIC offers an interesting pole-zero cancellation (PZC) that allows dealing with long SiPM signals, the feature of active summation of up to 8 input channels into a single differential output and it can offer a solution for reducing power consumption compared to discrete solutions. Measurements and simulations of MUSIC coupled to two SiPMs developed by Hamamatsu are considered and the ASIC response is characterized. The 5$^{th}$ generation sensor of the Low Cross Talk technology coupled to MUSIC turns out to be a good solution for gamma-ray cameras. arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/http://arxiv.org/abs/2211.14022v2

Angesichts der Angst vor einem vollständigen Stopp der Gaslieferungen aus Russland wollen die EU-Staaten gemeinsam Energie sparen. Die Ambitionen sind allerdings nicht so gross, wie erhofft. Solange Gassparen freiwillig bleibt, sind sich die meisten EU-Staaten einig. Wenn das Gas aber tatsächlich knapp wird, dürfte die Solidarität nationale Grenzen kennen.

El lunes de la pasada semana Suzuki anunció que abandona el Mundial de MotoGP a final de año, una noticia que ha movido los cimientos del campeonato. La noticia bomba de la temporada, adelantada por Motorsport.com, no puede ser otra que el anuncio por sorpresa y de forma unilateral por parte de Suzuki de abandonar el Mundial de MotoGP al final del presente año. Uri Puigdemont y Germán Garcia Casanova analizan, en una nueva entrega del Podcast MotoGP de Motorsport.com las claves que rodean a esta inesperada e imprevista espantada del fabricante japonés, que no es la primera, ya que protagonizó una en 2011, pero a diferencia de entonces, ahora lo ha hecho teniendo suscrito un contrato de permanencia con el promotor, Dorna, hasta final de 2026, un acuerdo que se ha llevado por delante y que, lógicamente, acarreará consecuencias a todos los niveles. A nivel humano, la jugada de Suzuki es absolutamente reprobable, tanto en el fondo, dejando a a todos sus empleados de MotoGP sin trabajo, como en la forma, ya que el anuncio llegó de forma inesperada en el box del equipo el lunes del test de Jerez, de forma tan fría que dejó a todo el personal en estado de shock. Y a nivel deportivo, el efecto de este anuncio dejara secuelas de incalculables consecuencias, tanto para el campeonato, que pierde uno de sus constructores y dos motos en la parrilla, como para el mercado de pilotos, que ahora se agita absolutamente con dos pilotos de altísimo nivel, como son Joan Mir y Alex Rins, libres y sin contrato para 2023. Dorna frenó a Suzuki Japón, que tenían previsto un comunicado oficial al día siguiente de saberse la noticia, y casi diez días después estamos esperando una explicación que, por simple lógica e higiene mental, debe llegar antes del inicio, este fin de semana, del Gran Premio de Francia. A partir de aquí, los rumores y especulaciones en torno a fichajes y renovaciones, así como los posibles movimientos para rellenar las dos plazas que quedan libres en la parrilla, serán la comidilla las próximas semanas en un campeonato que se ha visto absolutamente convulsionado por el daño irreparable que la jefatura suprema de Hamamatsu ha perpetrado tomando una decisión incomprensible.
