Nous sommes au Ve siècle avant J.C., en Chine, dans l'état de Lu. Dans ce que l'on appelle le « Commentaire de Zuo », attribué à un certain Zuo Qiuming, il est fait mention d'un lien unissant un homme à un dragon. Le lettré, contemporain de Confucius, raconte qu'un nommé Dongfu appréciant les dragons et ayant la capacité de comprendre leur volonté, est parvenu à les apprivoiser et à les élever avec succès. C'est ainsi qu'il rentre au service de l'empereur Shun, qui lui attribue le nom de Huanlong, signifiant « éleveur de dragons ». Dans une autre histoire, c'est l'empereur Kong Jia qui, en récompense de son obéissance au dieu du ciel, reçoit deux dragons, l'un mâle, l'autre femelle. Toutefois, ne parvenant pas à les dompter, il engage un dresseur nommé Liulei, qui a appris son art auprès de Huanlong. Malheureusement, un jour, la dragonne passe à trépas. Liulei décide alors de la débiter, il la taille en menus morceaux qu'il cuisine et sert au roi. Celui-ci est aux anges : il raffole tant du repas qu'il réclame du rab ! Mais, l'infortuné Liulei, ne pouvant se procurer davantage de cette viande, est contraint de fuir le palais.

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton can't seem to slow down even for a moment. The biggest story making headlines is her powerful new duet, Butterfly, with Zac Brown and the Zac Brown Band, released September 5. Critics from MusicTalkers and Parade alike call the ballad a spiritual, cinematic anthem of resilience and hope. The release arrived not only with a beautifully produced track but also a deeply moving music video featuring both artists. According to Zac Brown, the collaboration was a dream come true, and he describes Dolly's vocals as transformative, saying she brought a whole new perspective and “so much heart and soul” to the song. Fans are already flooding social media with praise for the pairing and have made the video a must-watch on YouTube and Instagram in the first forty-eight hours.Butterfly is included in the Zac Brown Band's upcoming album, Love & Fear, due out December 5—the very day they launch their sold-out Las Vegas Sphere residency. Industry watchers are buzzing about a possible live duet during December's Sphere run, although no official announcement has been made. While this is not yet confirmed, the excitement is only amplified by Zac and Dolly's visible camaraderie on social media, with Zac's fiancée Kendra Scott even joining the chorus of enthusiastic fans.If that weren't enough, tomorrow night Dolly's legacy gets honored as the Cleveland Orchestra brings Threads: My Songs in Symphony to the Blossom Music Center. The production, developed by Parton herself with Schirmer Theatrical and Sony Music Publishing, recasts Dolly's signature hits in a grand multimedia symphonic format. Parton will not appear on stage, but she's ‘featured on screen' throughout the evening in what she herself has called one of the most special projects of her career. This innovative celebration threads her life story and musical journey together for audiences nationwide—another sign her iconic catalog is only growing in stature.On the business front, Dolly continues to bat away internet scams using her likeness, specifically those false rumors about her endorsing CBD gummies that have popped up in unsanctioned Facebook ads. In a typically witty Instagram statement this week, Team Dolly clarified she has not endorsed any such product, declaring she's truly “the cake, cookie, and cornbread type.” Instead, she recently expanded her official food line with new Duncan Hines offerings, delighting fans with fresh cornbread and brownie mixes.And just to remind everyone she's always relatable, Dolly told Business Insider in a new interview that her go-to order at Taco Bell remains the classic soft taco—with extra hot sauce, of course.From music milestones to myth-busting on social media, September finds Dolly Parton as both an always-evolving icon and the down-to-earth queen her fans adore.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta
It's Casual Friday on the Majority Report On today's show: Revisions to the June and July job numbers show they were actually 21,000 less jobs added than initially reported. However, the ever optimist Howard Lutnick tells us to wait until a year from now when the job numbers will be amazing. Contributing writer to salon.com and proprietor of the Hullaballoo blog, Heather 'Digby' Parton joins us to wrap up the week's news. Could the US be working towards a regime change in Venezuela? Donald Trump is exacerbating the alienation of the US internationally. Trump posts an endless rant on the "Democrat Epstein Hoax" to Truth Social. Meanwhile, James O'Keefe posts hidden video footage of DOJ Deputy Chief Joseph Schnitt claiming that the DOJ will redact all GOP names in the Epstein files and only include Democrats. Will Democrats grow a spine and vote to shut down the government or cave in again like they did in March. In the Fun Half Joe Rogan falls for an AI video of Tim Walz dancing and then covers it tracks by saying "it seems like something he would do". We look into to Joe Rogan's love of an easily debunked moon landing theory, and it shows how much of an unreliable narrator he is. Pete Hegseth claims that the Trump administration had complete authority to "smoke a drug boat" All that and more. Have a good weekend, folks. The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.

Nous sommes le 3 juin 1838. Le Journal des Débats fait état d'une peau de grand singe exposée dans le cabinet du naturaliste Guillaume Lennier, marchand d'oiseaux. Le journaliste évoque un certain capitaine Touret, commandant du navire La Clarisse, qui aurait ramené, au Havre, au retour d'un de ses voyages au Gabon, les restes d'un singe énorme. « l'inspection de ce quadrumane extraordinaire ( 4 mains), ajoute le journal, fit croire généralement qu'il devait appartenir à l'espèce des ourang-outans ou des chimpanzés. Ses formes musculeuses, sa taille de cinq pieds et quelques pouces, après l'affaissement que la mort avait dû faire subir à tout son système cutané, la force de ses membres épais et de sa tête volumineuse, prouvaient assez l'origine de cet animal, qui semble être la transition naturelle entre la race des orangs et celle des hommes (…). Monsieur Lennier a exposé dans son cabinet, situé sur la jetée du Nord, ce chimpanzé du Gabon, qui, aujourd'hui, se trouve être probablement le plus grand et le plus curieux des quadrumanes que l'on ait encore introduit en Europe », conclut l'article de presse. Sommes-nous, en réalité, en présence des restes d'un gorille ? Nous allons bien voir car c'est l'évolution de la place de ce primate dans l'arbre du vivant que nous allons explorer. Nous tenterons aussi de comprendre les liens que les sociétés humaines ont noués avec lui. Nous nous interrogerons enfin sur le défi que représente sa conservation. Partons sur les traces du gorille … Avec nous : Cédric Crémière, historien des sciences et muséologue, chercheur associé à l'Institut d'histoire moderne et contemporaine, à Paris. « Dans la tête d'un gorille – Histoire et culture » ; éd. humenSciences Sujets traités : Gorille, Guillaume Lennier, ourang-outans, chimpanzés, Gabon Merci pour votre écoute Un Jour dans l'Histoire, c'est également en direct tous les jours de la semaine de 13h15 à 14h30 sur www.rtbf.be/lapremiere Retrouvez tous les épisodes d'Un Jour dans l'Histoire sur notre plateforme Auvio.be :https://auvio.rtbf.be/emission/5936 Intéressés par l'histoire ?

In the most headline-grabbing development, Dolly just released a new single called Broken Angels, collaborating with bluegrass band The Grascals. The track doesn't shy away from tough themes—addiction and recovery—and marks the debut single from The Grascals' upcoming album, highlighting Dolly's commitment to social issues that affect real people. She co-wrote the song with Jamie Johnson from The Grascals, reinforcing their two-decade-long partnership. Both fans and critics agree the song speaks to Dolly's relevance in contemporary bluegrass and country, and Bluegrass Today and HERE Bristol confirm the single is already making waves.Meanwhile, public appearances took a bittersweet turn in late August when Dolly was expected to make a splash in Bozeman, Montana, celebrating the two-year milestone of her Imagination Library's statewide expansion. The event, hosted by First Lady of Montana Susan Gianforte, was packed with fans decked out in Parton-inspired fashion, but unfortunately Dolly was sidelined by an ear infection. Nevertheless, she sent a warm video message and shared her hopes to reschedule. Governor Gianforte and country singer Stephanie Quayle kept spirits high, even as Dolly's absence was palpable. Local Montana press covered the event extensively, championing the library's impact, as nearly one in every two children in the state now receives a free monthly book thanks to Dolly's philanthropic vision.On the business and legacy front, Dolly is stoking anticipation for her upcoming Life of Many Colors Museum, slated to open in 2026 within her new SongTeller Hotel in Nashville. Fresh updates in late August showcased renderings and teased the Hall Of Fame Exhibit, which will trace every dazzling decade of Dolly's life, showcasing her wardrobe, awards, and other never-before-seen memorabilia. The hotel promises to be a must-visit destination for music lovers, with regular sneak peeks fueling excitement across her Instagram and official channels. This museum will operate alongside the Journey of a Seeker exhibit honoring Dolly at the Country Music Hall of Fame, a blockbuster success since opening this spring, with media and fanfare peaking after Dolly herself turned heads at the May 19 preview in a stunning all-pink outfit.In major entertainment news, Dolly is set to roll out a multimedia symphonic storytelling tour called Threads: My Songs in Symphony, set to debut with the Nashville Symphony in March 2025. Variety and AOL broke the story, noting how Dolly will guide audiences via on-screen narration, as orchestras and guest vocalists reimagine her catalog—essentially, a new chapter in her stage career without the grueling pace of road tours.Social media, as always, has been ablaze with Dolly content—from viral fan tributes to replays of her uplifting message to Montana, to Instagram teases of her new museum. Fan engagement soared during the late-summer costume events and museum sneak peeks, while coverage of her growing business empire appeared in outlets like Country Music Alley. Worth mentioning: her net worth now hovers around $750 million thanks to her relentless creativity, brand expansions, and ever-popular Dollywood.In sum, Dolly Parton remains at the very center of music, culture, and philanthropy, as every new headline affirms her status as both an enduring icon and a woman who just keeps rewriting her own fabulous story.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton has delivered a run of headline-making moves and emotional moments in the past week. She's stoking anticipation for her upcoming Life of Many Colors Museum, set to open inside her SongTeller Hotel in Nashville in 2026. The museum promises fans an intimate look into Dolly's legendary career, including “Dolly's Hall Of Fame Exhibit,” which will feature her iconic wardrobe, awards, and personal memorabilia. Photos and teasers keep popping up on the SongTeller Hotel's Instagram, ramping up excitement for what's expected to be the largest celebration of her life and achievements, all done the Dolly way according to iHeart Radio's coverage. If that wasn't enough museum action, Dolly's Journey of a Seeker exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame is now open through September 2026, where guests can gaze at handwritten “Jolene” lyrics and the famous “9 to 5” outfits among other treasures.As for business developments, Dolly continues to expand her entertainment empire. The big financial story keeps repeating—her net worth comes in, yet again, at an eye-watering $450 million, as Forbes reported, and AOL detailed how Dollywood remains Tennessee's top tourist draw, even as it faces operational issues from the recent worker shortage thanks to changes in visa rules as noted on Disney Dining. Her lines of housewares and “Doggy Parton” pet products are growing, too, making appearances on Amazon and at national stores. Just this month, Dolly made a splash in Florida, acquiring the SkyWheel attraction in Panama City Beach and launching another Pirates Voyage dinner theater, as recounted by Dollymania and major news outlets. The Florida expansion rounds out her signature blend of family fun with observation wheels, mini-golf, dinner shows, and ropes courses—all part of Dolly's unmistakable brand.On the performance and philanthropy front, Dolly's musical has debuted in Nashville, and preparations are underway for her first Las Vegas residency, “Dolly: Live in Vegas,” covered by AOL Entertainment. Meanwhile, the internet buzzed when Dolly was named in the Hollywood Reporter's top three for the coveted Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, spotlighting her ongoing philanthropic work—especially her Imagination Library, recently celebrated in Yellowstone Public Radio for its impact across Montana and Tennessee.Social media this week has been a river of tributes, especially following the passing of country star Jeannie Seely, with Dolly sharing memories and condolences on platforms like Dollymania. The public's love for Dolly was further reflected in glowing reviews on Tripadvisor for her energetic Stampede Dinner Attraction in Pigeon Forge, which continues to earn Best of the Best status.Speculation about possible operational challenges at Dollywood has rippled through business columns, and some fans are wondering how this might affect future expansions and seasonal festivals. But nothing is confirmed about closures—everything points to Dolly's teams working overtime to keep the magic going for millions of annual visitors.The headline this week has to be Dolly's continued reign as country music's queen of entertainment and philanthropy—museum builder, business mogul, Las Vegas star, and the beating heart behind America's favorite dinner shows and theme parks.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

According to a Country Music Alley report and her own social media, Dolly mourned the passing of her lifelong friend Jeannie Seely on August 1st, only months after losing her husband Carl Dean. Her heartfelt online tributes have been widely picked up by fans and entertainment outlets, many echoing the significance of these relationships from her early Nashville days. The emotional weight of these losses is palpable but it's also drawn a rush of public support and condolences across Twitter and Instagram, amplifying Dolly's powerful role as a figure of comfort and resilience for millions.Professionally, Dolly revealed an eagerly awaited Las Vegas residency set for December at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. The six-show run is timed with the National Finals Rodeo, and fans have flooded her social platforms with excitement. As referenced by TODAY.com, tickets went on sale last week and VIP packages include photo ops and exclusive merchandise, marking her return to Vegas after nearly a decade. Throughout the concert series, she'll showcase hits spanning her seven-decade career, reinforcing her relevance with both nostalgic and new listeners.In tandem with these performances, Parade magazine noted Dolly's announcement of a collectible vinyl release of her 2008 Live From London concert, out October 10.

PR Newswire and major financial outlets like Forbes and The Tradable confirm her net worth has climbed to $650 million, with Dollywood and a suite of branded ventures like Doggy Parton pet gear and cookware thriving. On August 20, Dolly issued a statement about a business and philanthropy leadership transition: longtime advisor Ted Miller will retire, and Jeff Conyers, current head of her Dollywood Foundation, will take over as senior liaison next year. Industry insiders see this as a move to solidify succession and preserve her philanthropic vision for decades, especially regarding the Imagination Library program.Fans should also watch for her upcoming book Star of the Show: My Life on Stage due out in November and ongoing work on a Broadway musical about her life, slated for 2026 with ATG Productions. Local impact remains strong as Dolly continues supporting medical centers and education in Tennessee, actions highlighted by finance and philanthropic reports.On Broadway, Dolly Parton's Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol is scheduled for return performances on tour, blending her songwriting with Dickens to acclaim from critics and family audiences alike.Speculation and unconfirmed rumors have swirled about additional surprise TV appearances and collaborations, but no major news outlet has verified new music releases or cameo roles for August beyond the aforementioned public engagements.

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton has dominated headlines and social media this week with a whirlwind of business moves, heartfelt reflections, and high-wattage showbiz spectacle. On August 20th, Dolly announced a pivotal leadership shift for her business and philanthropic empire, naming Jeff Conyers, already president of The Dollywood Foundation, as her new senior business representative for all things Dollywood and charity while longtime advisor Ted Miller prepares to retire at year's end. According to PR Newswire, Dolly praised Conyers' deep understanding of her values and made it clear she's securing her vision and legacy for decades to come.Turning from business to pure pleasure, the entertainment world lit up with news that Dolly will return for her first major Las Vegas residency in 32 years. AOL and IMDB both report that Dolly: Live in Las Vegas will bring six shows to Caesars Palace this December, promising hits from “Jolene” to “I Will Always Love You” and VIP packages that have fans scrambling. Parton says she's “excited” to hit the Vegas stage again, with these appearances coinciding with both the National Finals Rodeo and a recent period of personal reflection since the passing of her husband Carl Dean. Yet, true to Dolly form, she has numerous other creative irons in the fire—her musical memoir, Dolly: A True Original Musical, recently opened in Nashville with Broadway in its sights, while Threads: My Songs in Symphony is touring symphony halls across America.Business headlines have been almost as glittering as the residency news. On August 21, according to Real Country 103.5, Dolly herself unveiled an exclusive new Coca-Cola flavor, 40th Pop Fizz, celebrating Dollywood's upcoming 40th anniversary, available only within her Pigeon Forge theme park. Taste tests have been mixed, but no one doubts Dolly's star power will make the limited-edition soda a cult item. IMDB and Country Music Alley summarize her business acumen—her catalog of over 3,000 songs is reportedly worth $150 million, and her ventures span from Dollywood to hotels and fragrance lines, keeping her net worth at an eye-popping $650 million for 2025.On the personal side, Dolly's recent appearance on Khloe Kardashian's podcast drew social buzz as she candidly shared her reasons for taking a step back from the relentless pace of music to focus on legacy and family. Coverage from AOL singled out her vulnerability and wisdom—a theme echoed in her written reflections this week on love, loss, and resilience following her husband's passing, as reported by Death With Dignity.All eyes are on Dolly's next move, whether it's a Vegas headliner or a philanthropic masterstroke, and every note and business deal only cements her place at the center of American cultural life.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton's week has been nothing short of headline-making. According to Parade, she dazzled audiences at the opening of Dolly: A True Original Musical at Nashville's Fisher Center, a theatrical biography featuring new and classic songs. Dolly herself cowrote the book, and the stage adaptation stars three actresses portraying her at different stages of life, generating enthusiastic reviews. On Instagram, Dolly proudly showcased opening night highlights and ticket info, using the platform to connect directly with her fans. American Songwriter added that she wanted the musical staged while she's still alive and involved, a philosophy that feels pure Dolly—living legend advancing her legacy in real-time.Business-wise, Dolly is in expansion mode yet again. IMDB and Country Music Alley report she's branching into another yet-to-be-public business venture, with continued revenue power stemming from her unrivaled catalog of over 3,000 songs—valued at around $150 million—and her entertainment, amusement park, and philanthropic endeavors. FreeJobAlert pegged her net worth at $650 million this year, making clear she's more a cultural institution than mere celebrity. Much of this wealth cycles back into charity, particularly the Imagination Library and community scholarships, re-enforcing her “do good with what you've got” ethos.Major on-screen appearances are brewing: The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra announced a visually ambitious Pops Series dedicated to Dolly's career, running September 19–20. Though Dolly will appear only virtually, the concerts feature hits like Jolene and I Will Always Love You, interwoven with personal stories and archived footage. In a statement, Dolly called the show “threads of my life woven together,” highlighting the significance of sharing her journey through orchestral arrangement.On the Broadway front, Dolly's Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol will tour again this season according to The Carson Center, with performances scheduled through November. Her classic narrative of redemption set in Depression-era Tennessee remains a perennial crowd-pleaser, and group ticket sales are already strong.Social media was abuzz when Dolly performed Jesus and Gravity at The O2 Arena, drawing excitement among British fans via accounts like PartonNews. Meanwhile, AOL reports Dolly's long-awaited Las Vegas residency has tickets flying, marking her first resident show in decades and sparking a flurry of fan anticipation.As for speculation, details on her rumored new business project remain tightly guarded amid a swirl of online chatter, but outlets like IMDB and Country Music Alley hint at a significant, possibly industry-shifting reveal in the coming months. For now, everything else is fully verified—Dolly Parton continues to thread herself more intimately into America's cultural and musical fabric by the day.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.In the past few days Dolly Parton has been at the center of several headline-grabbing developments cementing her legend not only in country music but also as an entertainment and business icon. The most significant news broke on August 5th when Guinness World Records honored Dolly as an official Guinness World Records Icon to mark Dolly Parton Day. This is particularly biographically meaningful; she now boasts 11 Guinness records with achievements such as most consecutive decades with Top 10 album entries on the Billboard country chart and the longest span of No.1 hits for a female artist—her reach now celebrated not just for music but for her transformative impact on poverty relief, education, and child literacy. According to Guinness Editor-in-Chief Craig Glenday, Dolly's real distinction comes from life-changing projects like her Imagination Library. The presentation took place in Nashville studios with plenty of media coverage.On the business front her profile soared again with the grand opening of Dolly Wines Bar inside Nashville's Assembly Food Hall on August 1. The wine bar features the Dolly Wines label, a collaboration between Parton Family Cellars and Accolade Wines, extending her knack for fun and hospitality to yet another enterprise. U.S. fans can sample her signature California chardonnay and pinot noir along with a peach sangria, while UK fans can enjoy exclusive rose and prosecco varieties. Social media lit up following the opening; Instagram fans flocked to post selfies under the bar's bright blue lights and a giant Jolene-inspired portrait, while media outlets like News 19 and Parade highlighted Dolly's infectious entrepreneurial spirit and ability to draw crowds with even a sip of her signature style.Her business moves continue as Parade and WYRK reported that she's prepping a $75 million Nashville hotel The Songteller, set to welcome guests in 2026, complete with music venues and a museum dedicated to her legacy—a long-term investment likely to become a central pilgrimage for fans and scholars alike.The biggest entertainment buzz of the week came from Nashville's Fisher Center at Belmont University during the premiere of Dolly: A True Original Musical, which dramatizes her life and career. Instagram exploded with scenes of Dolly stunning on the red carpet and taking the stage to announce three actresses cast as Dolly through various ages. Media outlets ranging from Country Living to Music Row covered her appearance and the enthusiastic applause for the autobiographical show, deepening her cultural footprint as both a living legend and trailblazing storyteller.If all that wasn't enough, Dollywood, her signature theme park, has just been recognized as the #1 Amusement and Water Park in America by Tripadvisor for 2025, beating out Disney and Universal Studios—a pointed reminder that Dolly's influence in entertainment, hospitality, and business simply knows no bounds.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton has been making headlines once again, and even at 79, her influence feels as vibrant and omnipresent as ever. The biggest recent story is her highly anticipated return to Las Vegas, with a six-show residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in December 2025, marking her first extended Vegas run in over three decades. According to AOL, Dolly expressed palpable excitement, promising a hit-laden spectacle and offering up special VIP experiences for superfans, including photo ops and exclusive merchandise. She confirmed the residency through both press releases and a characteristically sparkly Instagram post, sending her signature rhinestone-laced message right to followers' feeds.In the arena of live performance, Dolly remains unstoppable. On July 30, Right Angle Entertainment and Paul T. Couch announced the national tour of Dolly Parton's Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol will kick off November 15 in Owensboro, Kentucky before playing more than 20 cities. Featuring new songs and her distinct Appalachian aesthetic, the musical reimagines Dickens' Ebenezer Scrooge as a Depression-era mining magnate in Tennessee—an idea that could further cement Parton's role as an ambassador for Smoky Mountain culture. Dolly herself chimed in, saying she “poured her heart into the music” and hopes families across America will feel the love, laughter, and mountain magic packed into every scene, as reported by the RiverPark Center.Dolly's presence on social media—a combination of lavish portraits and uplifting platitudes—has created a strangely emotional undercurrent among fans. On July 28, Parade and HELLO! Magazine note, Dolly's team posted a glamour shot with an inspirational caption, but fans, still reeling from the March loss of her husband Carl Dean, panicked in the comments, fearing the worst. The last few months have rendered every new Parton post a moment of both relief and trepidation.Touching tributes also remain at the forefront. Just days ago, Dolly posted a poignant message on Instagram thanking fans for their heartfelt condolences after Carl Dean's death, described lovingly as “the star of my life story.” The ballad she released in his memory—If You Hadn't Been There—offered a rare, vulnerable glimpse into her personal grief and creative pause. She's acknowledged publicly that her songwriting has slowed, explaining on the Khloé in Wonderland podcast that the emotional toll has left her “just putting it all on hold,” but she hopes to return to it when she's able.Finally, nostalgia continues to fuel her connection with fans. A throwback post of “Coat of Many Colors” went viral, sparking a fresh wave of emotion for this song's core message: resilience, humility, and pride in one's roots. From glittering strip lights in Vegas to heartfelt tributes and every rhinestone in between, Dolly persists in making news—proving that, even through loss, her legacy's only growing.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Deux conquistadors, Gonzalo Pizarro et Francisco de Orellana, tentent de trouver une nouvelle route vers l'Inde, au-delà de la gigantesque barrière des Andes.

Independent investigative journalism, broadcasting, trouble-making and muckraking with Brad Friedman of BradBlog.com
Nous sommes en 1716. Dans un compte rendu du missionnaire capucin, Florentin de Bourges, revenu du Nouveau Monde, on peut lire : « Avant que les pères jésuites eussent porté la lumière de l'évangile dans le Paraguay, ce pays était habité par des peuples tout à fait barbares, sans religion, sans lois, sans société, sans habitation ni demeure fixe ». Vingt ans plus tôt, le père Sepp, parlant des Indiens, avait écrit au père Stinghailm : « Leur stupidité pour les choses de la religion est telle que les premiers missionnaires doutèrent quelques temps s'ils avaient assez de raison pour être admis aux sacrements ». En juillet 1753, plus de deux siècles après les premières missions jésuites dans les territoires occupés par les conquistadors, l'un des fonctionnaires royaux responsables d'une de ces missions, Nicolas Neengiru, écrit au gouverneur de Buenos Aires : « Seigneur gouverneur : l'écoute des mots de votre lettre nous a tous pris par surprise ; nous ne croyons pas qu'il ait été dans le saint cœur de notre roi de nous ordonner de déménager, quelque chose de très difficile à réaliser, et nous affirmons que ce ne sont pas les intentions de notre roi.Les Portugais, oui, nous affirmons qu'ils veulent nous faire du mal et nous obliger à nous déplacer, car ils sont les ennemis de notre bien-être. » Partons sur les traces des Jésuites en Amérique du sud avec Marcel-Etienne, guide-conférencier.

durée : 00:58:51 - Les Grandes Traversées - Les racines du jeune Winston disent tout. Partons donc au Palais de Blenheim, où la lignée des Marlborough, dont Churchill, a vécu et grandit. Ce château, "un peu notre Versailles", raconte un Churchill aventurier, avec une destinée. Né en 1874 au Palais de Blenheim, en Angleterre, Winston Churchill a grandi près de sa grand-mère, bien plus que de ses parents, comme le voulait l'usage parmi les aristocrates de l'époque. Celui que l'on surnommait "le vieux lion" a raconté ses jeunes années dans un livre publié en 1930, My Early life. En observant cette atmosphère marquée par l'imaginaire de la guerre et des batailles à Blenheim, on comprend que le petit Winston était en vérité un "soldat né". L'écrivain en herbe Le poète franco-britannique Michael Edwards évoque la prévalence des mots dans la jeunesse de Churchill : "Son premier souvenir, c'était une phrase. Il dit qu'à l'âge de quatre ans, lorsqu'il était en Irlande, et que son grand-père, le duc de Marlborough, a inauguré, dévoilé une statue à un grand militaire, il a prononcé un discours, et Churchill pense se rappeler une phrase : 'Et d'une salve cinglante, il fracassa les lignes ennemies.' Je trouve ça très intéressant parce que la phrase est merveilleuse. Il se peut que Churchill l'ait un peu réaménagé, mais la phrase est très puissante, très anglaise et très rythmée. Il avait le sens de la langue et il avait acquis, en quelque sorte, toutes les possibilités de l'anglais. Il connaissait les ressources de l'anglais comme un vrai écrivain." Churchill le comique Une fameuse anecdote racontée par le concerné veut que le jeune Winston ait été tout à fait déconcerté par un cours de latin portant sur la déclinaison du mot "mensa", la "table". Alors que son professeur s'efforçait de lui enseigner le vocatif — "mensa" — en expliquant qu'il s'agissait du cas à employer pour s'adresser à l'objet en question, Churchill répondit malicieusement qu'il ne parlait jamais aux tables... "Ce que j'ai remarqué dans ce livre My Early Life, raconte Michael Edwards, c'est que c'est un grand livre comique. La comédie ne le quitte jamais, qu'il parle de l'armée, qu'il aimait énormément, et où il trouvait beaucoup de glamour dans le sens anglais du mot, beaucoup de panache, de couleurs, etc. Ou qu'il parle de l'école, qu'il parle de ses amis politiciens ou qu'il parle de ses discours, etc. Il y a toujours des traits d'humour." L'officier au panier percé Le jeune Churchill manquait d'argent. Bien que sa famille eût été fortunée, Winston se voyait régulièrement refuser les sommes d'argent qu'il demandait à sa mère, à 20 ans, pour satisfaire les standards de la vie d'officier. L'écrivain Eric Simon raconte : "Il a toujours eu des problèmes d'argent parce que, disons-le, il vivait vraiment au-dessus de ses moyens." Il parvint à se constituer des ressources complémentaires grâce au journalisme : "Il a commencé à avoir une dérogation de son officier supérieur pour qu'il puisse écrire des articles. À l'époque, on lui payait en article 5 pounds (...). 5 pounds, ce serait à peu près aujourd'hui 250 livres de l'article. C'est grâce à la presse qu'il a pu tenir son standing de jeune officier, fréquenter un club, offrir le Champagne et le Porto à ses amis, comme un officier devait vivre." L'écriture se frayait ainsi un chemin dans la vie du jeune homme, avant même la consécration du prix Nobel.

Dolly Parton Can Improve Your Teamwork... - Mike CohnWould you like to get a check from Dolly Parton for $500? I would.In an effort to reduce the number of students who dropped out of high school in her home county, she promised all 7th and 8th grade students she would give them each $500 if they graduated from high school.She added a catch: They'd only receive the money if a buddy they chose also graduated.Dolly's Buddy Program reduced high school dropouts from 35% to 6%.She clearly understood the importance of accountability to one another: a student contemplating dropping out may not when they factor in the financial impact on their buddy.I wish Dolly Parton would make a similar offer to teams. The best teams understand that they succeed (or fail) together.No one benefits when the programmers finish coding on the last day of an iteration, and leave testers no time to test.When shared accountability pervades a team, people help each other. Programmers may write more unit tests if they know testers will be challenged. Or they may execute some tests themselves.If testers are concerned that programmers may not finish, they can help by identifying earlier and sharing the edge cases that programmers may overlook.There's always something you can do to help your coworkers. Beyond helping out in a pinch, here are some practices that help a team succeed together: Small backlog items that flow through the process more smoothlySmall, frequent handoffs to reduce waitingClose collaboration to improve communicationOverlapping work to avoid leaving too much testing until the endDaily scrum meetings to encourage accountability to one anotherFostering an attitude that everyone succeeds together may not get you a $500 check from Dolly Parton, but it will help you succeed with agile.How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/
Nous sommes en 1520-1521, quelque part au milieu du Pacifique. Antonio Pigafetta, marin et chroniqueur italien, navigue depuis des mois sous les ordres du portugais Fernando de Magellan. Ils sont à la recherche des îles Moluques dans l'est de l'Indonésie, des îles réputées riches en épices. Sans le savoir Pigafetta participe à ce qui sera le premier voyage autour du monde des Européens. Il écrit :« Nous naviguâmes pendant le cours de trois mois et vingt jours, sans goûter d'aucune nourriture fraîche. Le biscuit que nous mangions n'était plus du pain mais une poussière mêlée de vers qui en avaient dévoré toute la substance et qui, de plus, était d'une puanteur insupportable, étant imprégnée d'urine de souris. L'eau que nous étions obligés de boire était également putride et puante [...]. Notre plus grand malheur était de nous voir attaqués d'une espèce de maladie par laquelle les gencives se gonflaient au point de surmonter les dents [...]. Dix-neuf d'entre nous en moururent.» Partons sur les traces de la première circumnavigation de l'histoire… Invitée : Annick Delfosse, professeure d'histoire moderne à l'ULG Sujets traités : Fernando de Magellan, Moluques, Antonio Pigafetta, monde, tour, Pacifique Merci pour votre écoute Un Jour dans l'Histoire, c'est également en direct tous les jours de la semaine de 13h15 à 14h30 sur www.rtbf.be/lapremiere Retrouvez tous les épisodes d'Un Jour dans l'Histoire sur notre plateforme Auvio.be :https://auvio.rtbf.be/emission/5936 Intéressés par l'histoire ?

It's a casual Friday on a Thursday and the disastrous Senate bill passed somehow despite Chuck Schumer's renaming. Our favorite, Heather 'Digby' Parton joins us today for a recap of the week's news. In the Fun Half Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton join for further discussion of the bill. We watch Jimmy Dore tackle climate change by discussing an article in the Washington Post that he didn't read, instead getting his info from Joe Rogan who is also discussing the article that he did not read. It's a hall of stupid mirrors. All that and a whole lot more.

It's Casual Friday my friends, and boy do we have a lot to celebrate. Elon Musk and Donald Trump are having an ugly public break up and we are here for it. Bit what does all this mean for Trump's Big Beautiful Bill? Heather "Digby" Parton is here to help us break it all down. Check out Digby's column at Salon: https://www.salon.com/writer/heather_digby_parton As well as her blog Digby's Hullabaloo: https://digbysblog.net/ In the Fun Half, Republican Senator James Lankford says that that the Big Beautiful Bill will move millions of people from Medicare to employee-funded health care. Hmm, we weren't aware that this huge tax cut for rich people that guts the social safety net is also a job creator. It's a head scratcher. After that, Donald Trump seems to suggest that the Nazis are still in power in Germany. He tells the German chancellor that D-Day must be a bad day for Germany, because, you know, it was huge turning point in the defeat of Hitler's dictatorship. And a former denouncer of Andrew Cuomo who is also running against him in the NYC mayor's race has had a change of heart and is now endorsing him. Don't rank Jessica Ramos NYC folks! And James Carville has a strange bit of commentary on Jewish donors to political campaigns.
