Meanwhile, Scarlets won the first Welsh derby of the festive season after beating Cardiff 21-17 at the Arms Park, but Ospreys suffered a 26-10 defeat at home to Munster, meaning they'll be bottom of the league at Christmas.

Le Bas-Rhin est le département le plus attractif du Grand-Est. L'Insee a dévoilé hier les chiffres officiels des populations de chaque commune française. Le Grand-Est est toujours au 6ème rang des régions de France avec 5 563 378 habitants. Alors que sur la période précédente, la région avait perdu plus de 10 000 habitants, elle en a gagné plus de 4000 entre 2017 et 2023. Le nombre de naissances ne comble pas le nombre de décès, mais la région attire des habitants qui viennent s'y installer. Les zones frontalières gagnent notamment des habitants, comme dans la plaine d'Alsace ou à la frontière avec le Luxembourg. La gendarmerie lance un appel à la vigilance. Depuis plusieurs semaines, la compagnie de gendarmerie de Sélestat constate une hausse des cambriolages, notamment dans les communes et environs de Châtenois et Marckolsheim. A quelques jours de Noël et des nombreuses livraisons de colis, il est conseillé de bien fermer ses portes et fenêtres et de mettre en place un système d'éclairage programmé. Les forces de l'ordre invitent les habitants à composer le 17 s'ils repèrent un véhicule ou un individu suspect. La campagne aux élections municipales de Colmar se poursuit. Ces dernières auront lieu les 15 et 22 mars prochain. Pour le moment, sept candidats se sont déjà déclarés, dont le maire sortant Éric Straumann. En ce début de mois de décembre, Yves Hemedinger a annoncé sa candidature. On l'écoute. Son programme s'articulera autour d'un axe majeur : le développement économique. Face au vieillissement de la ville, il propose notamment un plan massif pour attirer des entreprises et faire revenir les jeunes. Ses autres priorités incluent la sécurité, l'accès aux soins et le pouvoir d'achat. Sa liste, qui sera dévoilée en janvier prochain, se veut représentative de la population. Retrouvez son interview complète ainsi que celles des autres candidats sur notre site internet, azur-fm.com. Appel aux dons à la SPA de Strasbourg. Depuis ce mercredi, l'association recherche activement des dons, notamment d'aquariums ou de litières de chanvre. La raison : l'arrivée soudaine de 12 hamsters, retrouvés abandonnés dans une poubelle d'une rue strasbourgeoise. Leur état serait alarmant : des plaies ouvertes, des morsures, des pattes amputées ou des blessures aux yeux, le résultat de bagarres alors que ces animaux sont solitaires et territoriaux. Avant toute proposition à l'adoption, qui ne pourra pas avoir lieu avant trois semaines, les hamsters vont être soignés mais la SPA manque de matériels. Une plainte contre X a été déposée. 35% des habitants du Grand-Est prévoient de faire leurs achats de Noël à la dernière minute. Selon une étude Ankorstore, un tiers explique ses achats tardifs par un budget limité ou l'attente d'une rentrée d'argent ou de promotions. Les comportements varient fortement selon l'âge. 45% des moins de 35 ans assument des achats en dernière minute contre un peu plus de 30% chez les plus de 55 ans. Autre différence marquée : les femmes s'organisent davantage que les hommes. Elles ne sont que 28% à attendre la dernière minute, contre 41% chez les hommes. Malgré tout, cette ruée de fin d'année profite aux commerçants de proximité. 58% des consommateurs retardataires se tournent vers des commerçants indépendants, un chiffre qui grimpe même à 85% pour les plus de 55 ans.Hébergé par Ausha.

Manger à la cantine coûtera bientôt le même prix partout dans la région.

Munster Technological University (MTU) recently announced that it has formally signed the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA) Agreement. The signing demonstrates MTU's commitment to responsible and inclusive approaches to evaluating research. By joining CoARA, MTU is aligning with an international movement that champions assessment practices emphasising quality, openness, integrity, and societal impact. As part of this commitment, MTU will develop and implement its CoARA Action Plan. The plan will outline concrete steps to transform assessment practices in research, recruitment, recognition, and career progression. Dr Seán Lacey will lead this work and will coordinate consultations, engage relevant stakeholders, and guide implementation of the CoARA principles. Prof. Maggie Cusack, President of MTU, commented: "Signing the CoARA Agreement is an important step for MTU and will progress our strategic objectives of inclusion, integrity and a genuine commitment to research excellence. By joining the CoARA coalition now, we are demonstrating the leadership and institutional alignment needed to implement responsible and practical reforms in research assessment. This will ensure excellence, transparency, and accountability for our university community and wider society." Prof. Hugh McGlynn, Vice President Research & Innovation, highlighted the evolving nature of research assessment and the importance of coordinated leadership: "The research landscape continues to evolve. Assessment practices are moving toward more inclusive, responsible, and sustainable approaches. By joining CoARA, MTU positions itself within an international network committed to strengthening research quality, openness, integrity, and ethics. To support this work, I have appointed Dr Seán Lacey to lead the development and implementation of the University's CoARA Action Plan. His dedicated leadership and engagement with relevant stakeholders will help us embed responsible and inclusive assessment practices across our policies and procedures. This will enable better support for interdisciplinary work, open science, and the diverse forms of scholarship and contributions that address today's global challenges." Dr Pio Fenton, Vice President People & Culture, welcomed the University's commitment to responsible and inclusive research assessment practices: "CoARA is an important step toward creating a more supportive and equitable environment for our researchers and the wider university community. Responsible research assessment aligns closely with our People & Culture priorities including recognising contributions, supporting career development, and fostering inclusive pathways for success. I look forward to working with Seán on this forward-looking agenda." Dr Seán Lacey, MTU Lead for CoARA Implementation, highlighted the upcoming work on institutional alignment: "Developing and implementing the CoARA Action Plan is an opportunity to bring our community together to shape the University's future approach to research assessment. We will engage widely across faculties, researchers, and our professional, technical, and administrative teams to ensure the plan is both practical and meaningful. Our goal is to create fair and transparent processes that recognise the full breadth of researchers' contributions, while supporting high-quality, responsible, and impactful research." Next Steps In the coming months, MTU will initiate a structured consultation process to inform the development and implementation of its CoARA Action Plan. Staff, researchers, and external partners will have opportunities to contribute. The final plan will be submitted to CoARA and shared publicly by the end of 2026, after which MTU will progress a series of deliverables and report on them within agreed timelines.

Overall a really pleasing weekend for both Gloucester and Glos-Hartpury as they secured wins against difficult opposition. But the Bonus point victories were not as straightforward as they should have been. The Women struggled to put away an entertaining Ealing side, while the Men managed to secure 5 points despite having a shambolic lineout (Helped to a significant degree by Castres dreadful discipline).We chat through both games and do see the overwhelming positives especially considering the mis-firing set piece but do have serious concerns ahead of this weekends match in Cork against Munster. Jim and Ed also discuss the Rugby World Cup draw and the opportunities available for some of the Tier 2/3 nations to spring a surprise on the likes of Fiji, Italy and Wales.Ed PriceJim HarleyCherry Jam is proud to be sponsored by PGT LLP

A conversation with Barbara Stollberg-Rilinger, Professor Emerita of Early Modern History at the University of Munster and Rector of the Institute for Advanced Study in Berlin. Germany is becoming increasingly important to this podcast, which is why we're digging into another aspect of this fascinating part of Europe. Dualism and dissolution; between fealty and federation; the unravelling of the Holy Roman Empire and a tumultuous period. All setting the stage for Napoleon Bonaparte...This discussion:- Explores the complexities and contradictions of the Holy Roman Empire in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, including its structure, political dynamics, and the concept of legitimacy.- Discusses the dualism and rivalry between Austria and Prussia, and how their ambitions and actions contributed to the fragmentation and eventual dissolution of the Empire.- Examines the significance of symbolism, rituals, and ceremonies in sustaining imperial power—and the ways these traditional forms were both maintained and undermined in practice.- Looks at cultural and intellectual responses to the era's upheavals, including the reactions of figures like Goethe, Schiller, and Hegel to the French Revolution and emerging German nationalism.- Considers the impact of Napoleon and the mediatisation of the Empire, questioning whether Napoleon was the executioner of the Holy Roman Empire or if its internal weaknesses had already sealed its fate.Help us produce more episodes by supporting the Napoleonic Quarterly on Patreon: patreon.com/napoleonicquarterly
