It is one of the most annoying things at a concert and most of us would like to see this BANNED! What is it and why is it happening? If you've been struggling to get a good night's sleep, experts say there could be one common habit making things much worse. Imitating Chat GPT might seem like a cool party trick but impersonating the online chat agent as good as this guy does could really test your friendships and relationships! A bizarre scandal involving the White House, betting and Donald Trump has left people stunned and we play Australia’s favourite Friday Game – RIDDLE TIME!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Après 10 ans sans élection, Haïti vient de lancer le processus électoral avec l'enregistrement des partis politiques. Nous en parlons avec le géographe et spécialiste de la politique haïtienne Jean-Marie Théodat. Pour Jean-Marie Théodat, la multiplication des partis politiques illustre la fragmentation de la scène politique haïtienne. Avec 316 partis enregistrés, il juge peu crédible qu'ils remplissent tous les critères exigés par le Conseil électoral provisoire, notamment celui de compter au moins 30 000 membres. Mais pour l'universitaire, le principal obstacle reste l'insécurité. Dans un pays où de nombreux quartiers et axes routiers sont contrôlés par les gangs, il estime que les conditions matérielles d'un scrutin libre ne sont pas réunies. Organiser des élections avant de rétablir la sécurité reviendrait, selon lui, à « mettre la charrue avant les bœufs ». Il met également en garde contre le risque d'une influence directe des gangs sur le processus électoral, rappelant que certains chefs criminels ont déjà envisagé de transformer leurs organisations en partis politiques. Sans démantèlement des groupes armés et sans garanties de sécurité pour les électeurs, conclut-il, les élections risqueraient de renforcer le pouvoir des gangs plutôt que de restaurer la démocratie.   Naïka réinvente le konpa haïtien C'est un genre musical que nos auditeurs haïtiens connaissent très bien : le compas ou konpa, en créole, né dans les années 50 et inscrit en décembre 2025 au patrimoine immatériel de l'Unesco. Une musique qui continue de se renouveler et dépasse les frontières d'Haïti. En témoigne le succès en ce moment de Naïka, chanteuse franco-haïtienne de 31 ans. Après la sortie de son premier album, Eclesia au début de l'année, elle chante ses titres en anglais, en français et en créole sur les scènes du monde entier. Elle sera au festival de jazz de Nice le 23 juillet, le 31 juillet à l'Appletree garden festival en Allemagne et aux Francofolies de La Réunion, le 4 septembre. Justine Fontaine nous fait découvrir cette artiste.

Dans l'archipel des San Blas où ils vivent majoritairement, certains îlots sont menacés par la montée des eaux et déjà régulièrement inondés. Il y a deux ans, les quelque 1.300 habitants de Carti Sugdub ont été relocalisés sur la terre ferme. Le nouveau village financé par le gouvernement est aseptisé. Construit sur le modèle des zones résidentielles de banlieue, c'est un alignement au cordeau de petites maisons toutes identiques. Grégoire Pourtier, notre correspondant au Panama, est allé voir comment se déroule cette transition et savoir si elle répond aux attentes de la population.   Le journal de la 1ère En Guyane comme ailleurs, des délais de paiement trop souvent interminables ne facilitent pas la vie des entreprises.

This episode of The New Abnormal podcast features the Johannesburg-based ‘thinker, researcher, and sometimes do-er' Geci Karuri-Sebina, who is an Assoc Professor at the WITS Southern Centre for Inequality Studies, Organiser at the Civic Tech Innovation Network, and Chair / Director of the Southern African Node of the Millennium Project.In what I hope you'll agree is a fascinating conversation, she discussed rethinking futures, activism, and development through more pluralistic and imaginative approaches. Drawing on her interdisciplinary background across technology, urban studies, and foresight, Geci explained her shift towards post-activism, arguing that conventional responses to crisis often reproduce the very systems they seek to change. Rather than prioritising action alone, she advocates deeper understanding, experimentation, and humility in the face of complexity. She also illuminated the emerging African Foresight Network, which seeks to cultivate futures thinking rooted in African and Global South perspectives, indigenous knowledge systems, and diverse conceptions of time. Geci discussed challenging linear, Western models of futures thinking and encouraging more culturally grounded approaches - she also critiques the dominance of reductionist foresight methods (e.g. the 2x2 scenario matrix) calling for richer, more inclusive epistemologies and methodologies. Turning to urban futures, Geci outlined her work on a decolonial critique of urban studies, arguing that African cities are often constrained by limiting narratives. She advocates moving beyond these imaginaries through experimentation and new narratives. The discussion concluded with her work on AI, development models, and an "Alt Lab" for social experimentation. Finally, she explained how creating better futures depends on strengthening imagination, inclusion, and institutional transformation... 

L'Albiceleste héroïque ! Après un match renversant, encore une fois ce mercredi, les Argentins se sont qualifiés pour leur deuxième finale consécutive en coupe du Monde. Lionel Messi et ses partenaires ont sorti l'Angleterre 2-1 alors qu'ils étaient menés 1à 0 à cinq minutes du coup de sifflet final. La capitale Buenos Aires était en effervescence hier, comme l'a constaté Caroline Vicq. Haïti : les débuts compliqués du processus électoral Comme chaque mardi, Frantz Duval, rédacteur en chef du Nouvelliste, nous éclaire sur l'actualité d'Haïti. Aujourd'hui, à la Une, le lancement du processus électoral avec l'inscription de 316 partis politiques par le Conseil électoral provisoire. « Organiser des élections avec autant de partis, c'est impossible », estime le responsable du journal. « C'est pourquoi le Conseil électoral leur a demandé de se regrouper. Mais le délai qu'il leur a accordé (5 jours) est trop court ». L'ancien président haïtien Michel Martelly est rentré par surprise à Port-au-Prince, ce mercredi. « Son retour n'avait pas été annoncé officiellement. Il a été accuelli par ses amis, d'anciens ministres et un groupe de musique, ce qui a attiré les chalands et permis à Michel Martelly d'avoir les belles images qu'il souhaitait », raconte Frantz Duval. L'ex-chef de l'État se trouve en Haïti pour répondre aux questions de la justice au sujet de l'assassinat de son prédécesseur Jovenel Moïse. Mais « en pleine période électorale, il compte certainement placer ses pions et se remettre au centre du jeu », souligne le journaliste. Enfin, dernier sujet à lire dans le Nouvelliste : le départ de Stéphane Migna qui dirigera désormais la sélection du Gabon. Or « Haïti joue la Coupe des Caraïbes en septembre. Il faut de toute urgence reconstituer une équipe viellissante », explique Frantz Duval. Compliqué sans sélectionneur...   Les États-Unis imposent de nouveaux droits de douane au Brésil Nouvel épisode dans la guerre commerciale entre les États-Unis et le Brésil. Washington a annoncé ce mercredi (15 juillet 2026) qu'à compter du 22 juillet, certains produits brésiliens seront taxés à 25%. Alors que la plupart des précédentes surtaxes douanières imposées par les États-Unis ont été annulées en février, par la Cour suprême, Donald Trump ressort cette arme politico-commerciale dans le but de peser sur la présidentielle qui aura lieu au Brésil début octobre. Le président étasunien cherche à favoriser son allié, Flavio Bolsonaro. Mais sa stratégie est à double tranchant, nous epxlique Marine de La Moissonnière du service international de RFI.   Pérou : les ravages d'El Niño Selon les scientifiques, El Niño, phénomène océanographique qui entraîne une hausse des températures du Pacifique, devrait atteindre des niveaux records cette année. Si on attend des sécheresses et des inondations sans pareil à partir du mois d'octobre sur la côte pacifique du continent sud-américain, les premières répercussions se font déjà sentir au Pérou : les poissons se font de plus en plus rares.

The 54th Scoil Samhraidh Willie Clancy finished up on Sunday, with thousands of visitors flocking to Miltown Malbay across the eight days of what is widely regarded as one of the country's most important traditional music festivals.    However, some residents in Miltown Malbay viewed it as a week of disruption.     People in the Lus na Sí estate say illegal and inconsiderate parking is making it difficult to access their homes and raising concerns about emergency vehicle access.     Joining Alan Morrissey to address their concerns was Harry Hughes, Lead Organiser of Scoil Samhraidh Willie Clancy.  Photo (c) Clare FM

La Coupe du monde de football 2026 se déroule du 11 juin au 19 juillet aux États-Unis, au Canada et au Mexique. Un événement planétaire qui rassemble des millions de supporters, mais qui, comme d'autres événements sportifs, soulève aussi la question de son impact sur l'environnement. À l'heure où les enjeux écologiques sont plus présents que jamais, c'est l'occasion de s'interroger sur les liens entre le sport et l'écologie.

Are your software tests a beautiful work of fiction? In this episode of Troubleshooting Agile, Squirrel and Jeffrey question the obsession with "shift left" and instead make the case for shifting right i.e. testing right in production where the real world happens. Join us for a discussion on AI logging, Etsy's continuous real-world tests, and why keeping your code in a sterile sandbox is costing you money.

Découvrez la face cachée d'un couple de peintres : Françoise Gilot et Pablo Picasso. Cinquante ans après sa mort, le monde de l'art rend encore hommage à l'œuvre monumentale de Picasso. Pourtant, ces nombreuses expositions occultent souvent le calvaire qu'il a fait vivre à ses compagnes, et surtout, le courage de celle qui lui a dit non. En 4 épisodes, à travers ce couple, nous allons vous dévoiler comment Picasso est passé maître dans l'art de la violence. L'heure du backlash 1953. Un matin ensoleillé, profitant de l'absence de Pablo, Françoise boucle ses valises et quitte Vallauris avec ses deux jeunes enfants. Après dix ans de relation, elle s'est lassée de ses attitudes possessives et autoritaires. Quelques années auparavant, Pablo lui avait assuré qu'on ne quittait pas un homme comme lui. « Nous verrons », avait-elle répondu. Pendant les années qui suivent la rupture, la vengeance de son ancien compagnon est sans pitié, à tel point qu'il entraîne tout un pays derrière lui. Son but ? Organiser sa mort sociale.

Dozens of Taranaki teenagers have jumped behind the controls of heavy equipment at an event designed to encourage young women to consider trades careers. Organisers of the Women in Trades showcase say women are valued employees, but many are missing out on six-figure salaries by not considering a life on the tools. It might not be as intimidating as some think, with one young potential recruit comparing working a digger to gaming. Taranaki Whanganui reporter Robin Martin was in Inglewood.

Those who are usually behind these events said they have opted not to organise the walk this year because of the decision by the charity's head office to close its Pieta South East premises at Waterside, Waterford city. Our South- East Correspondent, Marc O'Driscoll.
