Les dispositifs de prévention et de contrôle renforcés en Alsace. Dans un arrêté, Emmanuel Aubry, préfet du Haut-Rhin, interdit aux particuliers la détention et l'utilisation d'artifices et d'engins pyrotechniques jusqu'au 03 janvier prochain. D'autres mesures ont aussi été prises pour interdire la distribution de carburant en récipients transportables, la consommation d'alcool sur la voie publique ou encore l'exploitation de drones dans certaines communes. Les villes de Colmar, Mulhouse, ou encore Guebwiller sont notamment concernées. Sécurité renforcée dans le Bas-Rhin également. La vente, l'achat, le transport et la distribution de carburant dans les récipients transportables sont interdits du 27 décembre au 3 janvier. Les artifices et articles pyrotechniques sont également réglementés jusqu'au 3 janvier. Concernant la vente et la consommation d'alcool sur la voie publique, elles seront interdites du 31 décembre midi au 1er janvier midi. Un couvre-feu pour les mineurs de moins de 16 ans non accompagnés sera en vigueur la nuit du réveillon, de 21h à 6h, à Strasbourg, Hoenheim, Bischheim, Schiltigheim, Illkirch, Lingolsheim et Ostwald. Dans ce contexte, un enfant de 4 ans a été grièvement blessé par un pétard à Mulhouse. Les faits se sont déroulés dimanche soir. Selon les policiers, l'enfant était avec son père, en train de claquer des pétards, quand il a voulu en récupérer un qui a explosé dans sa main. Il a eu un doigt arraché. Son père a aussi été blessé, mais moins gravement. A Colmar, un candidat se retire de la course aux municipales de 2026. Michael Gonzalez annonce le retrait de sa candidature après un peu plus de quatre mois de campagne. Sans étiquette, il revendiquait cette position comme un atout pour, je cite, “représenter l'étiquette colmarienne”. Il expliquait vouloir articuler sa candidature autour du vivre ensemble. Dans un communiqué, il remercie ses soutiens, sans préciser les raisons de son retrait. Son conseiller, Hakim Makmoul, engagé de longue date, affirme que le programme élaboré reste disponible pour un autre candidat jugé digne de le reprendre. Un quatrième habitant de Wissembourg déchu de la nationalité française. Un franco-turc de 30 ans a perdu sa nationalité après un décret publié au Journal officiel le 19 décembre dernier. Condamné en 2018 à neuf ans de prison, il avait séjourné en Syrie en 2014 au sein d'un groupe djihadiste affilié à Al-Qaida, où il avait suivi un entrainement militaire et manié des armes. Deux ans plus tard, il avait également tenté de repartir en Syrie pour rejoindre l'Etat islamique, avant d'être arrêté. Il s'agit du 9ème Bas-Rhinois concerné par une déchéance de nationalité pour des faits liés au djihadisme. Médecins du Monde alerte sur des situations de plus en plus critiques. A Strasbourg, l'association constate lors de ses maraudes que des personnes atteintes de cancers, insuffisances rénales ou ayant subi des greffes restent durablement à la rue, faute de places d'hébergement d'urgence. Dans le Haut-Rhin, la situation est jugée moins difficile mais reste tendue. A Mulhouse et Colmar, environ 340 personnes étaient hébergées à l'hôtel à la fin du mois de novembre. Une enquête ouverte contre Jean-Luc Hoffmann. Le président de la chambre des métiers d'Alsace a l'interdiction de recruter des apprentis pendant 5 ans. Une décision prise par l'inspection du travail après une plainte pour harcèlement et violence, déposée par un apprenti de sa boucherie de Haguenau. Deux salariés sont aussi concernés par cette enquête. De son côté, Jean-Luc Hoffmann affirme qu'il a formé 49 apprentis, sans incident depuis 1987.Hébergé par Ausha.

Une deuxième victoire consécutive pour les Sélestadiens, qui sont à la 12e place du classement de Starligue à la mi-saison. De quoi espérer le maintien dans l'élite du handball français.

Des bières alsaciennes font leur entrée à la buvette de l'Assemblée nationale. Les bières artisanales de la brasserie strasbourgeoise Perle sont désormais proposées aux députés, à l'initiative du socialiste bas-rhinois Thierry Sother. Blonde et bière de Noël figurent au menu. Pour le maître brasseur Christian Artzner, c'est une forme de reconnaissance et un symbole fort pour le savoir-faire alsacien. Quand les urgences haut-rhinoises seront saturées, certains patients pourront désormais être soignés en Suisse. Une convention vient d'être signée entre l'Agence régionale de santé du Grand-Est et l'hôpital universitaire de Bâle. Les médecins du 15 pourront orienter des patients en urgence vitale vers l'établissement bâlois, sans démarche particulière pour les malades. Les soins seront entièrement pris en charge par l'Assurance maladie française et la continuité du suivi médical est prévue. Ce dispositif, hérité de la coopération mise en place pendant le Covid, devrait rester exceptionnel. A Fessenheim, EDF relance la concertation autour du futur technocentre. Alors que le démantèlement de la centrale nucléaire se poursuit, l'énergéticien souhaite avancer sur son projet de centre de retraitement de déchets faiblement radioactifs. Une commission de suivi vient d'être installée, réunissant élus, associations, habitants et acteurs économiques. Le projet, estimé à 450 millions d'euros, prévoit environ 200 emplois et une mise en service à l'horizon 2032. L'association Stop Fessenheim refuse d'y participer, dénonçant des risques environnementaux et un coût jugé excessif. Le marché de Noël de Colmar fermera ses portes le lundi 29 décembre. A dix jours de la fin, le maire Éric Straumann a dressé un premier bilan pour cette édition 2025. Un tassement de la fréquentation s'observe les premiers week-ends, une légère baisse qui s'explique selon le maire par la météo. Un record a tout de même été enregistré le samedi 6 décembre. Les venues en transport en commun sont également en hausse cette année, le maire apporte des précisions. La nouveauté de cette année, le point d'information spécial Noël en gare de Colmar, plaît également beaucoup. Les nombreuses venues en transport en commun impactent également les routes, d'après le maire il y a cette année bien moins de bouchons jusqu'à Sélestat. A Colmar toujours, le chauffage suscite la colère dans deux immeubles de Pôle Habitat. Une quarantaine de locataires ont échangé avec le bailleur, la société colmarienne de chauffage urbain et le maire Eric Straumann. En cause : un système de chauffage par air pulsé jugé inconfortable, certains habitants dénoncent des températures trop basses, de l'air froid soufflé dans les logements et des factures incomprises. De son côté, le bailleur affirme que les températures mesurées sont conformes voire supérieures aux normes. Pôle Habitat s'engage à faire revenir le bureau d'études et n'exclut pas un changement de système si nécessaire. Un nouveau rendez-vous est fixé au 23 mai.Hébergé par Ausha.

Lauren Salter and former Wales internationals Gareth Delve and Richie Rees reflect on the weekend's United Rugby Championship results including another win for the Dragons and a derby victory for Scarlets.

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.

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
