Au-delà du cercle Arctique, dans les régions septentrionales de Suède, Norvège, Finlande ou de Russie vit le dernier peuple autochtone d'Europe : les Sámis. Voyage en Finlande au cœur du Sápmi, la terre de leurs ancêtres… Répartis sur un vaste territoire, longtemps dénué de frontières, les Sámis sont aujourd'hui 80 000 habitant.e.s environ. Pendant des milliers d'années, les Sámis ont vécu nomades, de la pêche et de la chasse, au gré des transhumances de leurs troupeaux de rennes, cultivant un mode de vie pacifique, en harmonie avec le monde vivant, à la source de leur cosmogonie. Dans les langues sámies, il n'y a aucun mot pour dire «haine» mais il en existe plus de 300 pour décrire la neige… Oubliez le terme «Laponie» ou «Lapons», des exonymes coloniaux péjoratifs, qui en suédois, les désignent comme des «porteurs de haillons». Des siècles de colonisation et d'assimilation ont certes mis à mal l'identité culturelle, artistique et linguistique du peuple sámi; mais depuis 1986, il bénéficie d'une reconnaissance officielle ; il a son drapeau, un Parlement sámi en Norvège, en Suède, et en Finlande depuis 1996.Et c'est justement en Finlande, qu'est partie Jeanne Lacaille, à la rencontre de celles et ceux qui œuvrent pour faire entendre la voix des Sámis, aujourd'hui encore confrontés à de nombreuses menaces : prédations foncières liées à l'extension de l'agriculture ou le développement de projets miniers ou éoliens sur leurs terres,  racisme, surtourisme et bien sûr, changement climatique, la zone arctique se réchauffant quatre fois plus vite que le reste de la planète. Longtemps écartés des réflexions stratégiques et des décisions politiques concernant leur territoire, les Sámis luttent depuis plus de cinquante ans pour une reconnaissance politique, reconquérir leurs droits, leur identité et leur dignité, et surtout préserver leur terre.

In this episode of the DeviceTalks Weekly Podcast, we'll play the interview Host Tom Salemi conducted with Adam Elsesser, CEO of Penumbra, which has grown into a force in the vascular and neurovascular industries. Elsesser's path into running a MedTech startup was quite accidental, but that unorthodox path has helped the company develop a unique culture for innovation. Elsesser shares that philosophy in this interview and explains why he prefers uncertainty over risk. Kicking off the episode Jim Hammerand, managing editor of Medical Design and Outsourcing, visits with Chris Newmarker and Salemi to share the highlights of the magazine's leadership issue including an in-depth interview he did with former Edwards Lifesciences CEO Mike Mussallem. The three then run through this week's Newmarker's Newsmakers - Integra, Olympus, Johnson & Johnson, Boston Scientific, Stryker, and Inari.

The continued resilience of the economy has pushed back expectations for when the Federal Reserve will begin cutting interest rates this year. Additionally, concerns are rising that President-elect Donald Trump's tariff plans could lead to inflationary pressures.USDA Optimistic About Argentina's Soybean CropUSDA's Argentina office is maintaining a positive outlook for the country's soybean crop. The crop forecast remains steady at 52 million metric tons (mmt), with an increase in soybean acres and ideal growing conditions contributing to this stable projection. La Niña conditions may pose a risk to yields, but record-high soybean crush of 42 mmt is expected, driven by strong exports and consistent crush rates. US Farmer Sentiment Declines Slightly in DecemberUS farmer sentiment dropped slightly in December, with the Purdue CME Group Ag Economy Barometer Index falling to 136, a 9-point decline from November. Despite this, the index remains at its highest level since August 2021. The slight dip is attributed to farmers' concerns about farm conditions and the agriculture industry, but they remain optimistic about the future, particularly after the presidential election. The potential for a trade war under Trump's administration is a rising concern, with 48% of farmers now believing a trade war is either likely or very likely, up from 42% in November.US Ethanol Exports Surge in NovemberUS ethanol exports saw a major boost in November, climbing to 187.6 million gallons, a 31% increase from October. 2024 exports are on track to surpass 1.9 billion gallons, which would represent 12% of US ethanol production and set a new record. The surge is largely driven by strong growth in key markets like Canada, India, and the European Union. While exports of dried distillers grains fell 15% in November, they were still 14% higher than the same time last year.Inari Agriculture's Valuation SoarsInari Agriculture, an agtech startup, has seen its valuation skyrocket in 2024. The company raised $144 million in new funding, increasing its valuation by 32% to $2.17 billion. Inari develops wheat, corn, and soybeans that require less fertilizer, water, and land, providing sustainable solutions for farmers. The additional funding will help Inari expand its innovative solutions and strengthen its position in the agriculture tech space.USDA Reports Flash Sale of CornThe USDA reported a flash sale of 110,000 metric tons (4 million bushels) of corn to Colombia for delivery during the 2024/2025 marketing year.

Yuna asked.Ja: 「秘密だよ、由奈。まずはトリイを通り抜けよう」と誠が答えた。En: "That's a secret, Yuna. Let's go through the torii gates first," Makoto replied.Ja: 晴人は少し緊張した表情で、「ここは歴史が深い場所だから、慎重にね」と言った。En: With a slightly nervous expression, Haruto said, "This place is rich in history, so let's be careful."Ja: トリイの赤い柱の間を歩いていると、誠はふと、一つの柱の後ろに怪しい紙が貼られているのを見つけた。En: As they walked between the red pillars of the torii gates, Makoto suddenly noticed a suspicious piece of paper stuck behind one of the pillars.Ja: 「ここに何かあるよ！」誠が興奮気味に叫んだ。En: "There's something here!" Makoto shouted excitedly.Ja: 由奈は紙を見ると、「これ、何だろう？もしかして、幽霊のメッセージかも」と言った。En: Yuna looked at the paper and said, "What could this be? Maybe it's a ghost's message."Ja: 誠は少し笑って、「そんなの、ただの古い紙じゃないか？」と答えたが、心の中では興味津々だった。En: Makoto laughed a little and replied, "It's probably just an old piece of paper," but deep down he was very interested.Ja: 晴人は紙を慎重に触り、「これは古文書の一部だ。昔の神社の記録かも」と言った。En: Haruto carefully touched the paper and said, "This is part of an ancient document. It could be a record from the old shrine."Ja: 夜になり、誠は皆に内緒で紙の謎を解こうと決めた。En: That night, Makoto decided to solve the mystery of the paper without telling anyone.Ja: その夕方、祭りの準備が進む中、誠は一人で神社に戻った。En: As preparations for the evening festival continued, he returned alone to the shrine.Ja: しかし由奈は茂みの中から誠を追って、「何か隠してるでしょ？」と問い詰めた。En: However, Yuna followed him from the bushes and confronted him, "You're hiding something, aren't you?"Ja: そこに、ハラハラした様子の晴人も現れた。En: Haruto also appeared, looking anxious.Ja: 「全部話すよ。紙のメッセージを調べてみたいんだ」と誠は白状した。En: "I'll tell you everything.

But to touch it would be to desecrate the sacred," Haruto said.Ja: 由奈は驚いて、「でも、それを知ること自体が大切じゃない？」と反論した。En: Yuna, surprised, countered, "But isn't simply knowing about it important?"Ja: 誠は二人を見つめ、「これを知ることで、もっと多くの人がこの神社を大事にするかもしれない」と言った。En: Makoto looked at the two of them and said, "By knowing this, more people might come to cherish this shrine."Ja: 三人は協力して隠された財宝を見つけ、神社に捧げました。En: The three worked together and found the hidden treasure, which they offered to the shrine.Ja: それは、昔の奉納品で、神社の歴史を語る重要なものだった。En: It turned out to be old offerings, significant to the shrine's history.Ja: 誠は由奈に感謝し、「君の不思議な力がなければ、見つからなかったかも」と言った。En: Makoto thanked Yuna, saying, "If it weren't for your mysterious ability, we might not have found it."Ja: 由奈も笑顔で、「科学と霊魂は協力できるわね」と答えました。En: Yuna smiled and replied, "Science and spirits can cooperate, can't they?"Ja: 晴人も自信を持って、「歴史と伝統を守るために、知識と信仰が必要だね」と信念を新たにしました。En: Haruto, now more confident, concluded, "Knowledge and faith are necessary to protect history and tradition."Ja: 夏の夜、三人は祭りの光に包まれながら、さらなる冒険を誓いました。En: On that summer night, under the festival lights, the three friends vowed to embark on more adventures.Ja: 彼らの絆は、以前よりも強く、深くなっていました。En: Their bond had grown stronger and deeper than ever before.

On this week's episode we talk about the culturally ubiquitous phenomena of spirit possession, how the Catholic Church has a monopoly on the concept and why its various manifestations of power can be considered either good or bad depending on the context. We discuss tongues of flame, spontaneous levitation, strange smells and the sudden appearance of inexplicable wounds like the stigmata. In the extended edition of the show we loop back around to describe how these same phenomena are described in Japanese mythology and folklore before talking about Furbies, demons of the Goetia and how exorcism works from a Chaos Magick perspective.

In this bonus episode, brought to you with historicity Tokyo, Japan House London curator Hiro Sugiyama, and contemporary artists Tsuzuki Mayumi and Suga Mica, ride the great waves of Japanese graphic design, commercial illustration, and counterculture, from the 1980s to now. Heta-uma - meaning bad but good - was an accidental art movement. A kind of ‘anti-illustration', heta-uma rocked the established conventions of Japanese art, coinciding with the economic boom of the 1980s. Emerging in the underground manga magazine GARO, and manifesting in posters and adverts, pop art and animation, heta-uma challenges what is ‘ugly', ‘beautiful' or skilled art - as well as what ‘subcultures' mean in the context of a global mainstreaming in Japanese art, embodied by Hokusai's The Great Wave. Hiro Sugiyama, artist and co-curator of WAVE, has brought the annual exhibition in Tokyo to Japan Houses in San Francisco, Sao Paolo, and London. From his training at Yumura Teruhiko's Flamingo Studios in Shinjuku, we return to the city's Inari shrines with the surrealistic paintings of Suga Mica, and Showa period traditions with Tsuzuki Mayumi. Both artists also detail the long role of women artists in commercial illustration, the two-way exchanges between Japanese and Western European art traditions like ‘superrealism' and ‘hyperrealism', and how contemporary Japanese artists take as much from the concept of haziness (morotai), as David Hockney and the films of David Lynch. WAVE: Currents in Japanese Graphic Arts runs at Japan House London until 22 October 2023.

As the Iraqi army digs into Kuwait, the world considers how to respond to Saddam Hussein's breach of national sovereignty. President George H.W. Bush vows that the aggression “will not stand” and begins assembling an international coalition to force a withdrawal. Invited into Saudi Arabia, the recently reformed American military prepares for an eventual confrontation with Iraq's battle-hardened forces. Meanwhile, a hostage crisis unfolds and a domestic debate threatens to fracture Bush's Coalition.  SOURCES: Aburish, Said K. Saddam Hussein: The Politics of Revenge. 2000. Atkinson, Rick.

On August 2, 1990, Saddam Hussein invaded the tiny emirate of Kuwait. The resulting conflict triggered a chain reaction that changed the world. In this first installment in a three-part series, we trace the origins of the Kuwait crisis, chronicle Saddam's rise to power in Iraq, and explore America's symbiotic relationship with the Persian Gulf.  SOURCES: Aburish, Said K.
