Appel à témoins 22 ans après un crash aérien. Une rescapée de l'accident d'un avion de la compagnie Brit Air, survenu près de l'aéroport de Brest en juin 2003, lance aujourd'hui un appel pour retrouver ses bienfaiteurs alsaciens. Après le crash, qui avait coûté la vie au pilote, les survivants avaient été secourus avant l'arrivée des secours par un couple de camping-caristes venus d'Alsace. Vêtements chauds, réconfort et présence auprès des passagers, un geste resté gravé dans la mémoire de Céline, aujourd'hui âgée de 50 ans. Elle souhaite désormais remercier ces personnes ou leurs proches. Nouvelle interdiction du protoxyde d'azote en Alsace. Après Obernai, la ville de Bischheim prend à son tour un arrêté municipal contre le protoxyde d'azote détourné de son usage à des fins récréatives. Face à la multiplication des bonbonnes abandonnées et à plusieurs faits de sécurité routière, la mairie interdit désormais sa consommation et sa vente. En cas de consommation, c'est une amende de 35 euros, auxquels s'ajoutent 135 euros si la bonbonne est abandonnée sur le sol. Disparition d'Henri Mosson. Doyen des survivants du camp de concentration de Natzweiler-Struthof, il est décédé à l'âge de 101 ans dans la nuit de lundi à mardi. Ancien résistant, condamné à mort en 1943 puis déporté au Struthof, il est intervenu durant des décennies dans les écoles pour témoigner de la déportation et de la résistance. Il s'était encore rendu en 2024 au Struthof aux côtés du président Emmanuel Macron, pour les 80 ans de la libération. Une plainte déposée contre l'hôpital de Strasbourg Hautepierre. Dans la soirée du 23 décembre, un homme de 97 ans a été attaqué par son voisin de chambre. Il a été victime de plusieurs coups de ciseaux au thorax, à l'arcade, à la main et au bras. Souffrant d'un pneumothorax, le nonagénaire a été placé en soins palliatifs et s'est fait opérer. Sa famille, qui avait remarqué que ce voisin était agité, avait déjà demandé un changement de chambre. Après un refus, une des infirmières aurait ajouté que l'individu était attaché la nuit « pour ne pas qu'il tombe ». Une plainte a été déposée contre l'établissement, qu'ils accusent aussi de manqued'empathie et de transparence, pour délaissement d'une personne incapable de se protéger. Une autre plainte vise encore l'auteur de l'agression, pour tentative de meurtre. Un touriste nordiste condamné à Colmar. Un homme originaire du Nord a été condamné ce lundi par le tribunal correctionnel de Colmar. Agé de 45 ans, l'homme avait été interpellé après des violences sur sa compagne lors d'un séjour de Noël à Turckheim. Gifles, étranglements et menaces : les faits se sont déroulés sur plusieurs jours, avant l'intervention des gendarmes alertés par un voisin. Déjà connu de la justice pour des violences similaires, le prévenu a été jugé en comparution immédiate. Il écope d'un an de prison ferme, avec maintien en détention et une interdiction de contact avec la victime pendant deux ans. Hébergé par Ausha.

Le succès reste de mise pour le crémant d'Alsace. Près de 41 millions de bouteilles ont été vendues cette année. Incontournable des fêtes, ce vin effervescent est une locomotive pour le vignoble alsacien. L'année dernière, le crémant représentait d'ailleurs 36% de la production sur le territoire. Ce produit s'exporte principalement en Belgique et en Allemagne, mais commence aussi à séduire de nouveaux marchés, tels que l'Amérique latine et l'Afrique.La hausse des tarifs postaux impacte la presse locale. A partir de ce 1er janvier, la Poste augmente en moyenne de 7,4% ses tarifs de distribution. Une mauvaise nouvelle pour les journaux hebdomadaires régionaux, déjà fragilisés économiquement. Une hausse bien supérieure aux 2% prévus par les accords entre l'Etat, la Poste et les éditeurs. Des titres historiques comme l'Est agricole et viticole ou l'Ami du peuple dénoncent à nos confrères de France 3 une augmentation sans préavis, impossible à répercuter sur des abonnements déjà payés. A cela s'ajoutent des retards de livraison de plus en plus fréquents.A quelques jours du Nouvel an, une vidéo choc pour sensibiliser aux pétards a vu le jour sur les réseaux sociaux. Six adolescents de plusieurs quartiers de Strasbourg ont participé à la réalisation d'une vidéo de prévention contre les dangers des pétards. Le film met en scène un jeune gravement blessé après l'explosion d'un mortier, avec des doigts amputés et des lésions irréversibles. Cette vidéo a été tournée au Centre de loisirs de la jeunesse, une structure gérée par la police nationale. Si le scénario est fictif, les conséquences montrées à l'écran s'inspirent de faits réels. L'an dernier, six blessés avaient été déplorés la nuit du Nouvel an en Alsace. La vidéo rappelle également que l'achat, le transport et l'utilisation de pétards sont interdits jusqu'au 3 janvier. La Maison des Aliziers lance un appel à la solidarité. Centre de classes vertes musicales fréquenté depuis plus de 60 ans par des élèves alsaciens, ce dernier lance une opération de financement participatif. Géré par l'association des œuvres scolaires de Haguenau, le site doit réaliser d'importants investissements pour se mettre aux normes environnementales. L'objectif est d'installer des panneaux photovoltaïques et de nouveaux bacs de tri de déchets alimentaires, rendus obligatoires. Le coût global du projet est estimé à environ 50 000€. Pour financer ces aménagements, l'association fait appel aux dons via une plateforme en ligne et compte également sur un concert solidaire organisé en février. Hébergé par Ausha.

Une fois les fêtes passées, la féérie se poursuit dans la Vallée de la Bruche. Comme chaque année, le comité des fêtes de la commune de Neuviller-la-Roche propose au public une aventure nocturne à l'occasion de sa marche « A l'affût des rois mages ». En 2026, le rendez-vous sera donné le samedi 03 janvier pour une soirée qui se voudra également conviviale et gourmande. Les précisions de Pierre-Yves Fabre, à l'organisation de cette manifestation.Le lien vers l'article complet : https://www.azur-fm.com/news/neuviller-la-roche-un-succes-constant-pour-la-marche-a-laffut-des-rois-mages-2609Les interviews sont également à retrouver sur les plateformes Spotify, Deezer, Apple Podcasts, Podcast Addict ou encore Amazon Music.Hébergé par Ausha.

À Strasbourg, les exposants du marché de Noël demandent une ouverture prolongée l'an prochain. Alors que l'édition 2025 s'est achevée le 24 décembre, les forains souhaitent maintenir les chalets ouverts au moins jusqu'au 27 décembre, comme l'an dernier. Ce vendredi, certains se sont rassemblés place Kléber, offrant du vin chaud gratuit pour sensibiliser passants et touristes, parfois venus de loin pour rien. Selon le syndicat des forains, fermer plus tôt représente une perte de 20 à 25 % du chiffre d'affaires. Une demande de rendez-vous a été adressée à la préfecture pour l'édition 2026.En Alsace, un père Noël veut transmettre son savoir-faire. Alexandre Haus, originaire de Haguenau, projette de créer en 2026 une école européenne de pères Noël. Père Noël depuis plus de vingt ans, il s'est formé aux États-Unis et en Angleterre, où ce type de formation existe depuis des décennies. Son objectif : professionnaliser un rôle souvent jugé amateur, en travaillant l'histoire du personnage, le costume, la gestuelle, la voix et la relation avec les enfants. La formation se fera principalement à distance, complétée par quelques jours de séminaire en Alsace. Très investi, Alexandre Haus incarne le père Noël bénévolement sur les marchés, dans les hôpitaux et auprès des familles, avec une exigence : préserver la magie de Noël le plus longtemps possible.À Strasbourg, des propos racistes visent un candidat aux municipales de 2026. Mohamed Sylla, tête de liste du mouvement Utiles 67, dénonce des commentaires haineux publiés sur les réseaux sociaux après l'annonce de sa candidature début décembre. Des messages le renvoyant à ses origines ont notamment été postés sous un article relayant sa déclaration, au point que la publication a dû être supprimée. Le candidat se dit choqué, mais déterminé à poursuivre sa campagne, appelant à recentrer le débat sur les idées et les projets pour la ville. En octobre déjà, le candidat Pierre Jakubowicz avait été la cible de commentaires antisémites et homophobes. À Obernai, la police renforce les contrôles contre la consommation de protoxyde d'azote, aussi appelé gaz hilarant. Un arrêté municipal, pris début décembre, encadre désormais strictement sa vente et son usage. Seules de petites cartouches destinées à la chantilly peuvent être vendues, en quantité limitée, et uniquement aux majeurs. La police municipale fait actuellement le tour des commerces pour informer les vendeurs et multiplie les contrôles sur la voie publique. Objectif : endiguer un phénomène en hausse chez les jeunes, avec des risques pour la santé et la sécurité. En cas d'infraction, une amende de 38 euros est prévue.Un randonneur de 68 ans est décédé ce dimanche à Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines. Originaire de Horbourg-Wihr, l'homme effectuait une randonnée avec son épouse lorsqu'il a été victime d'un malaise mortel en fin de montée, peu après 11h30. Malgré l'intervention de l'hélicoptère de la sécurité civile, des secouristes du PGHM, des pompiers spécialisés montagne et d'un médecin, la réanimation est restée vaine. Son épouse avait immédiatement donné l'alerte et pratiqué les premiers gestes de secours.Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

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.

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
