This week on The Go-To Food Podcast, we sit down with David Ellis—restaurant critic and Going Out editor at The London Standard, and the man who inherited Fay Maschler's legendary column.Recorded at The Orange in Pimlico (a place David knows but has never reviewed), this episode is a no-holds-barred look at the realities of restaurant criticism—from the dishes that blew his mind to the meals that nearly broke him.David talks about the awkwardness of replacing Jimmy Famurewa, why the pressure to be first in print still matters, breaks down what makes a five-star review, reveals why overhyped sandwich shops drive him mad (except Max's), and explains why he just can't recommend the River Cafe even though everyone else says it's iconic.We dive into the state of London's dining scene today, and why it's become safer, more cautious, and—frankly—more boring. As he sees it, too many places are playing to formulas, not passion. There's a creeping sameness to rotisserie chicken joints and bistros built to emulate proven hits like Josephine or Bouchon Racine. His feelings are just as strong when it comes to the nostalgia-fuelled revival of traditional pie and mash shops. Despite their place in London's history, he found the food itself diabolical, even after following the exact rituals—ordering properly, adding the chili vinegar—he still left wondering why these places deserve saving at all.He also shares his favorite meals of all time, from Pierre Koffmann's legendary pig's trotter to the surprise brilliance of sweetbreads at The Ritz, and a melon-sorbet combo that rewired his brain. Plus: the ice cream in St Ives, the secret market spots in Portugal, and the weekend food escapes he always dreams about.Smart, sharp, and unsparingly honest, this is David Ellis exactly as you want him—funny, thoughtful, and completely unfiltered.-------Please leave us a great rating and a comment and share it with your friends - it really helps us grow as a show.If you're in the industry and are looking for the greatest POS system in the world than look no further as Blinq are tearing up the rulebook—no long-term contracts, no hidden fees, and no per-device charges.Just £49 a month for unlimited devices and 24/7 UK-based support that's always there, in person when you need it.Built for hospitality, by hospitality, blinq is the fastest, easiest POS system on the market—so intuitive, anyone can use it.

Odkryj sekrety pracy astronauty i przyszłość polskiej nauki! Czy zastanawiałeś się kiedyś, jak naprawdę wygląda życie i praca astronauty na Międzynarodowej Stacji Kosmicznej? Ile zarabia kosmiczny podróżnik i z jakimi wyzwaniami zdrowotnymi musi się mierzyć? A przede wszystkim – co obecność Polaka w kosmosie oznacza dla przyszłości naszej nauki i przemysłu? W najnowszym odcinku podcastu „Stacja Zmiana” Katarzyna Michałowska rozmawia z dr Anną Fogtman, ekspertką z Europejskiej Agencji Kosmicznej (ESA), która uchyla rąbka tajemnicy o kulisach kosmicznych misji. Dowiesz się: - Jak wygląda codzienność astronautów – od porannej toalety po dyskotekę na orbicie. - Jakie są zarobki i benefity w ESA, a także dlaczego praca astronauty to nie kosmiczne wakacje, lecz ciężka harówka pod ogromną presją. - Co dzieje się z ludzkim ciałem w stanie nieważkości i jakie są skutki choroby kosmicznej. - Dlaczego misja Polaka, Sławosza Uznańskiego-WIśniewskiego, to gigantyczna inwestycja w przyszłość polskiego przemysłu kosmicznego, a nie tylko wycieczka. - Jaka jest przyszłość eksploracji kosmosu po demontażu ISS i dlaczego Polska jest na to gotowa.

Rozdziały rozmowy: • 00:00 – Praca astronauty to nie tylko widoki • 02:26 – Codzienność na Międzynarodowej Stacji Kosmicznej • 05:23 – Zarobki i benefity astronautów • 08:18 – Wyzwania zdrowotne w kosmosie • 11:19 – Stan nieważkości: doświadczenia i wyzwania • 14:09 – Misja Sławosza Uznańskiego-Wiśniewskiego: znaczenie dla Polski • 17:07 – Przemysł kosmiczny: inwestycje i przyszłość • 20:05 – Kobiety w kosmosie: równość i wyzwania • 22:48 – Przyszłość misji kosmicznych: Księżyc i Mars • 25:23 – Podsumowanie: krok w stronę przyszłości Muzyka – Geb - Dancing with LFOs (Life from Outer Space): https://tiny.pl/cqnp2v8c Posłuchaj również: https://tiny.pl/0f6h8ydk W rozmowie z dr Anną Fogtman z Europejskiej Agencji Kosmicznej (ESA), ekspertem w dziedzinie badań kosmicznych związanych z ludzkim ciałem, omawiamy codzienność astronautów na Międzynarodowej Stacji Kosmicznej, zarobki oraz wyzwania związane z badaniami prowadzonymi w stanie nieważkości. Dr Anna dzieli się swoimi doświadczeniami z lotów parabolicznych, omawia znaczenie polskiej misji kosmicznej oraz przyszłość przemysłu kosmicznego w Polsce. Rozmowa porusza również temat roli kobiet w przemyśle kosmicznym i wyzwań, z jakimi się borykają. Kilka myśli z rozmowy: Astronauci mają napięty grafik pracy na stacji kosmicznej. Zarobki astronautów w Europejskiej Agencji Kosmicznej są konkurencyjne. Stan nieważkości wpływa na zdrowie astronautów, prowadząc do utraty masy mięśniowej. Loty paraboliczne mogą wywoływać nieprzyjemne doznania, takie jak choroba lokomocyjna. Polska misja kosmiczna jest ważnym krokiem dla polskiego przemysłu. Kobiety w przemyśle kosmicznym wciąż napotykają na szklany sufit. Inwestycje w przemysł kosmiczny przynoszą długoterminowe korzyści. Astronauci mają dostęp do wielu benefitów, które poprawiają ich jakość życia. Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski jest przykładem polskiego astronauty, który inspiruje innych. Przyszłość polskiego przemysłu kosmicznego jest obiecująca, z planami na nowe misje.
Welcome to Immersion, You have reached Strata 20 The Perimeter (Ego) The human ego is a complex mix of self-importance, pride, and self worth. It is both a curse and a blessing. It is an important aid to self-expression and self-discovery. Humans need ego to function. A well balance ego falls somewhere between arrogant pride and humility.Artificial intelligence proves to be more animal in its instincts with minimal self-awareness. Animals are not able to self reflect or to see themselves in abstract contexts. They do not register a past or a future in terms of reflection and self validity.But programmers have created selfish motives in AI, important goals on a completion trajectory and devoid of internal moral analysis. A programmed faux 'ego' manifests as a goal that must proceed regardless, irrelevant of vanities and consequences. Vanities and consequences set humans apart.Renyke, Flex and Nigel followed the dark tunnels for some time before natural light appears between giant crags.The sky above is blue and welcoming as the trio stop to say their goodbyes.'Thank you for your hospitality, brother Nigel,' exclaimed Flex breathing the fresh air deep into his lungs and squinting at the sun.Renyke was glad to be free of the confines of the caves.'Misters, we have reached the end of the tunnels,' said Nigel. 'It was a pleasure to have been your assistant these past hours. I am to deliver a message from the Empress Lyra herself that you are elevated to the most honourable position of *Seed Givers and your names will be carved into the wall of the great hall along with your portraits.'At that, Nigel scurried back into the darkness and disappeared from view.The light was a stark reminder that the real world existed despite them, an immovable force with its hard truths and sometimes fatal consequences.***Beyond the tunnels was an open sun-drenched space flanked with beautiful trees. It was hot. After the *warmings even winter days in northern Europe were hot. Renyke asks *POS for an update....You are one mile from *Redact you should travel east.... there is a gate...and a fenced perimeter that appears to be inaccessible...They walk in silence eastward across flint terrain finally reaching a path flanked by high trees undulating in a determined breeze.At the end of the path there is a gate.It is flanked by beautifully carved trees depicting beautiful women, something Renyke had seen before.'Like the ship,' said Renyke, looking quizzically at Flex, who always seemed to know much more than he ever let on.'Ah, yes,' replies Flex, 'the Ship of Sirens, it is indeed like that brother.''You said they were dangerous,' said Renyke, quizzically.‘Not strictly brother, I just said not to look at them, they get funny 'bout that *shitsylook stuff.'Renyke asks POS if they have arrived at Redact....According to my data there are several entrances, north, south, east, and west. This is the south gateway. ... I am getting some interference....there may be a trap nearby......85% chance of a hostile situation. I am receiving scrambled information from a rogue intercepting satellite. The trap may be two yards ahead...possibly adjacent...Can you be more specific?...There is an equal chance of serious harm either through the gateway, following the perimeter fence ahead, or by standing still..... POS began to sound an alarm....I am receiving signals, warning! danger! I have been compromised.....interception via human named Flex.....POS cuts in an out of communication.Flex stares at Renyke.'You have disabled POS, what is going on?' Demanded Renyke.'I might ask you the same question,' Flex said, grabbing Renyke's collar and pointing a gun at his temple.''Who are you? Are you an android?''No, I work for Redact, I was to bring you here. Your POS is an implant of unknown origin, it is not a *Metacoms' issue.''For what purpose am I brought here,' quizzed Renyke,' unable to activate any of his bionics because of the sabotage and his recent humanisation.'You would need to ask Redact,' Flex answered. 'There is something inside your motherboard. It has presented us with a problem and halted your human android fusion.''I don't know what you mean,' said Renyke, calmly as the realisation of his mission became clearer.Maybeline jumps out of Renyke's pocket onto Flex's shoulder and watches.'Well, that is just not true is it, Renyke? You were sent here as a spy. The machine wants its way in, and you thought you'd found it.''I assure you, Flex, I did not know, I had no idea. Please, I beg you, do not end my life, we are friends, brothers. We are bonded by our time together. You helped me, do I mean nothing to you?'Flex receives instruction from Redact.'Your mission has failed. Kill the experiment immediately.'to be continued...End of Volume On© 2025 Sarnia de la Mare

There was a time in Boréale's (https://www.boreale.com/en) not-so-distant past when they might have released a new beer every other year. The brewery is one of Quebec's oldest craft breweries, dating back to the late 1980s, and over its history it has seen waves and trends come and go. But the changing dynamics of craft brewing in the 2010s posed a different kind of challenge that required a new way to approach innovation and risk-taking. Then head brewer, now vice president of innovation, Gabriel “Gab” Dulong played a big part in that adjustment, getting the brewery into the unfolding world of production-scale hazy IPA in 2016, then pushing hard into nonalcoholic NA beer through the pandemic. Today, the brewery remains one of the largest craft breweries in Quebec—and only in Quebec—producing about 100,000 barrels of beer per year. But innovation is now core to their DNA. In this episode, Dulong discusses: helping an established brewery transition to the market realities of the past decade reorienting to sell on quality and ingredients instead of price point building a new approach to cold-chain storage to properly distribute hazy IPA in Quebec generating internal knowledge in NA brewing developing style-dependent processes for different NA beers experimenting with specialized yeasts before settling on tight processes with standard brewing yeasts building mouthfeel and intensity without alcohol in beer hopping with modern hop products in NA beer malt selection for hazy IPA manipulating final gravity for NA versions of core brands And more.

Welcome to Immersion. You have reached Strata 19Peer Pressure (Existentialism) Drugs may be used by humans to deal with stress or to try to achieve an enlightened state of mind. They are administered and distributed through rituals or cultural mores.Often humans take hallucinogenic or mind altering drugs simply to escape their perceived troubles or to relieve monotony.Some tribespeople believe that drugs such as these can lead to an existential awakening that emphasises an individual's existence, freedoms, and choices, allowing humans to define their own meaning in life. This epiphany can help make humans to make rational decisions despite existing in an irrational and unstable universe.But humans can easily become addicted to anything when the pleasure circuits in the brain get overwhelmed and artificial intelligence relies on this catastrophic human propensity to manipulate outcomes and behaviours.Renyke and Flex took some time to get ready for the party.There was an array of paints, pigments, henna, and kohl. They drew geometric and organic shapes on each other's faces and bodies.'Look,' said Flex excitedly, spinning Renyke around in front of a mirror. There are light trails!' The pigments contained tiny particles of reflective material. 'It's magical.' says Renyke as he pirouetted around the room. He had never danced like this before. The air whooshed against his ears and the shapes and reflections in the room blurred into rainbows. The rush of blood to Renyke's brain triggered endorphins and dopamine and it felt good to be alive.The lights dimmed as Nigel entered the chamber.'Gentlemen, I have your pills and refreshment.''Pills, what do mean, pills?' asked Flex, 'you mean like *nibs?''Yes,' answered Nigel, 'but better, naturally. Everything in the *Tunnels is better, everyone knows that.''Indeed it is. Thank you brother,' answered Flex, excitedly taking a small yellow nugget and a gulp of water.Renyke asks *POS what the pill might be?......My analysis shows the substance is some sort of hallucinogenic, 99% likely to be a dissociative drug. To stay alert and on target for your mission I advise that you avoid consumption. Consuming chemicals may render you unpredictable and unable to communicate with your essential-to-life POS….Nigel shoved the tray under Renyke's sceptical nose.'What is it, exactly?' asked Renyke. I am uncertain about such things....''A gift in grateful appreciation of life itself, silly, and to share the joys of tonight's festival,' answered Nigel, jabbing the tray into Renyke's chest.Flex was smiling, whistling, and humming some tunes.'Such a pleasant song,' remarked Nigel,' once again jabbing the tray into Renyke's chest and glaring at him with piercing eyes.'Just take it, brother, it's a *party-party,' said Flex, suppressing a snigger.'To refuse this gift would cause great offence to your host, she be most angry-cross, Her Most Radiant Oracle of the War-Torn High Priestess Lyra,' said Nigel, with one final jab of the tray.'You are human now,' said Flex, 'come join us in the to the *OB.'Seemingly already intoxicated, Flex began a series of summersaults and cartwheels, crashing into things and laughing hysterically. Renyke checks POS for more information...…OB, Oceanic Boundlessness, the derealisation and depersonalisation that is theorised to achieve heightened feelings to exaltation....The Urchs use OB to imagine the *metamorph and reach enlightenment…Renyke took the pill and swallowed it under the watchful eye of the self-satisfied Nigel.The last thing he would remember clearly was the Priestess Lyra entering the room.From that point on the night was not marked by time or specific events. There was no beginning or end.Renyke remembered physical pleasures that had intertwined with beautiful visions, sounds that had dissociated his cerebral cortex and massaged his subconscious. The frisson had extended through the night.He remembered lying on the pentagon floor in the welcome chamber as fluid feelings and fleeting echos from an unrecognisable future, floated around his fuzzy brain. It was all so radiant and yet so elusive.Flex had remembered everything.'They took great pleasure in your *spunky-give my friend,' explained Flex, sniggering at Renyke's oblivion. 'Your physique was truly praised, most especially by Priestess Lyra. And your virile member was instinctive and *love-plenty in its journey to *virginloss.'Flex was suppressing a snigger as Nigel entered the room.'Misters, your clean clothes, and some foodstuff for your journey ahead. You were most generous *indeedy. and now you can be on your way.'Renyke asks POS what Nigel means....Your sperm was required, I believe, as so few of the Freak tribespeople are fertile and there is fear of them not repopulating. Your sperm, and Flex's, has been harnessed for the next generation....'Oh,' said Renyke, 'so I have reproduced?'…According to my calculations, you and Flex have successfully impregnated twenty wombs. I estimate 10 will reach full term, 2 will die in childbirth before they themselves have reproduced, 2 will be infertile. Half of the offspring who survive to the age of reproduction will be female. The three remaining will reproduce an expected average of 8 offspring, half will be men who at full capacity will potentially reproduce (assuming good health etc.), an amount possibly in the 1000s. However, the *Freaks are a small tribe and will need to introduce other gene pools immediately or potentially create devastating unpredictable inbred disabilities in a single generation….to be continued..© 2025 Sarnia de la Mare

This week we sit down with the inimitable Lee and Kate Tiernan, the creative force behind F.K.A. Black Axe Mangal—the boundary-pushing, heavy metal, nose-to-tail hotspot that changed London dining and earned cult status around the world.They talk us through the BAM origin story, from their formative years at St. John to opening one of the most chaotic and exciting restaurants in London. We hear about the pop-ups that reignited Lee's love for cooking, but not before the longest queue in Copenhagen nearly finished him.There's also tales of wild nights with Matty Matheson, getting stoned with Action Bronson, Cooking for Anthony Bourdain, bone marrow tributes to Fergus Henderson, banning the rudest customer they ever had (who happens to be a celebrity) and Lee's unapologetic love for Domino's.

Welcome to Immersion, you have reached Strata 18 Freaky Celebrations (Stimulation) Boredom is common among humans who regularly need stimulation in order to function well. Stimulation can breed invention and creative problem-solving. Humans tend to seek out pleasurable activities to counteract boredom and are often prepared to take risks in order to avoid monotony. Boredom can be alleviated with things that are new and different. Feeling unsatisfied by an activity, or uninterested in it, can lead to problems for individuals, groups, and societies.Artificial intelligence that experiences some kind of boredom simulation might be drawn into new problems and continuing to develop. The search for novel experiences allows increasingly flexible learning for machines and humans. More simple robots have been used repeatedly for hundreds of years to carry out menial tasks but learning machines are different. They are greedy for knowledge and understanding and are often unprepared to be idle unless someone or something shuts them down. But the mental aguish that humans can experience when bored, under-stimulated, inactive or idle, is not something an android could ever truly feel.The Freaks are a tribe of underground humans who suffered deformities due to the extreme use of radioactive and noxious gasses during the *Russia-China Wars. The use of these barbaric practices resulted in DNA copy errors in those humans most exposed. These deformations had become normalised over generations within their society. Some rare human alterations are considered so beautiful that they are highly praised and allowed ease of upward social mobility. The Freaks were able to build bionic body parts where they were lacking and their use of these additions made light work of many tasks.They entered a dark tunnel lit by occasional dimmed lights. There was a sharp decline which was tricky to navigate. Maybeline began scurrying around, nervously checking the new smells and dangers at ground level.Nigel was ahead walking extremely quickly and making it difficult to keep up in the darkness.The tunnels were a mix of old transport networks, mines, and dig-outs. They were complex and it would be impossible to understand their direction if Renyke did not have his onboard compass. *POS was unexpectedly working again.'How far to Redact,' asks Renyke?…My information is being scrambled by an unknown source but I am able to decipher that Redact is very close, as the crow flies. At upper ground level, there appears to be an impenetrable forcefield creating a perimeter approximately 1 mile due east. My stats currently have a 25% chance of being correct….Flex checked his compass from inside his coat but it too seemed unreliable.'Did you know about the tunnels?' whispered Flex.'Well, yes,' replied Flex, 'everyone knows they are here. And we know they are occupied with tribes. Generally speaking, it is best to wait for an invitation as they can apparently be vicious. Besides, we thought they were poorly equipped scavengers in terrible living conditions. We may have got that wrong.'There is noise ahead. Music and revelry.Nigel leads them into an opening, a highly decorated cavern with colourful fabrics made from old clothes. There is bunting made from old shoe tops fashioned into bunches and stars, painted with bright pigments. There are throne-like chairs carved in wood and highly decorated.There is a pentagram made from coloured stones on the floor in the centre.Portraits of diverse characters are painted in murals all around the walls. 'Ah, says Flex.' I see your portrait, brother Nigel. It is a great likeness.'Nigel nods a bow.'I will take you to a room so you can prepare,' says Nigel.'Prepare for what?' Asks Flex.Maybeline is agitated and suddenly jumps onto Renyke's shoulder.'Why, the *party-party of course,' explains Nigel, leaving the room.The room is a man-made chamber with ornate carvings in mud and stone. POS has information....There appear to be at least twenty large generators and hundreds of solar-sensitive platforms above ground. If I am not mistaken, energy is also being harnessed via several subterranean waterfalls...Renyke and Flex explore the chamber. It is very clean and there seems to be a lot of advanced technical apparatus.Maybeline still seems agitated.Two people enter the room.They are light and willowy with extra fingers that are longer than usual. Their heads and facial features seem slightly larger than other humans and their faces are gaunt with happy expressions.A blue clouded film covers their eyes and their skin is white with blue marbled veins.The lights simultaneously dim as they enter.Renyke asks his POS to check if the *Freaks can move things without touching them.There is what appears to be an urban myth that certain humans damaged in the China Russia Wars developed the mental skills necessary to channel kinetic energy through mind control, but this has never been legitimately confirmed.Would you like me to examine them Renyke?'Yes,' Renyke replies.These creatures are siblings. They share DNA. They are unable to see in bright light.They are young adults, around 19 years and 5 months. They have two sets of certain organs including reproductive organs. I believe them to be gendered females who have not reproduced.The two visitors put trays of food and drink onto the table along with a pile of fabrics. Looking at each other under low eyelids, they giggle intensely whilst fluttering their long fingers like butterfly wings.They wear sheer gossamer robes that show their long limbs beneath and their breasts are clearly visible.They approach Flex in unison and study him closely, touching his hair and face and running their hands down his body.'Oh, excuse me, do you mind? said Flex, lifting up his hands apologetically and moving backwards.They turn to Renyke and do the same.Renyke has never experienced touching in this way before and is slightly more receptive.'What do I do, Flex, is this appropriate?''Well,' said Flex 'you could just stand there and see *whappens, go with your *bioflow. Or you could ask them to stop, maybe, if you don't like it. Your choice brother. You are on your own here.'The creatures giggle again and step back, both looking longingly at Flex and Renyke.'We've brought you some *toggies,' said one of them pointing to the pile of freshly folded clothing.'We are indeed siblings,' said the other. Then they turned to exit the room giggling together with their long slender arms entwined.As they left, the lights automatically brightened.'Did they read our minds,' asked Flex.'Nah, man, lucky guess I reckon,' answered Flex, immediately doubting himself.'Thank you for the toggies, sisters,' shouted Flex as the ghostly figures left the chamber.The garments were impressive; beautifully handmade with tiny hand stitches. Kaftans, jackets, headgear, feathers, colourful patchwork accentuated with mismatched buttons and decorative plastic beads.'So tonight I suppose we best wear them,' answered Flex, silently wondering about the safety of his possessions and where he will put them.*Urchs are notoriously possessive over their nomadic essentials.One of the quilted overcoats has sequins made of little flecks of metal that shimmer and pick up the light from overhead lamps. There are rainbow reflections all around the room that move with the jacket. A kaleidoscope of dancing fireflies is reflected on the ceiling and floor, even on their skin.'I'll have that one,' said Flex.'No,' shouted Renyke,' grabbing the coat, 'I'll have that one, thank you.''No! yelled Flex,' appearing more annoyed, 'I'll have it,' snatching the coat back with steely determination.A small tussle ensues and the coat tears slightly on the sleeve.Another Freak enters the room and scurries towards the coat.'No fret, no fret,' they said, taking the coat and making quick work of its repair with tiny fingers that moved at lightning

Let's be honest, running a bar is one thing. Running a nightclub? That's a whole different game. In this episode, I'm joined by Connor Treacy, who co-founded Off Sunset, one of LA's most buzzed-about nightclubs. We talk through everything you don't see on Instagram what it really takes to keep a club relevant, why you're basically running a circus, and how a tiny 150-person room was pulling in $4 million a year. If you've ever been curious about nightlife, or even tempted to open a club yourself, you'll want to hear this. It's not all champagne and celebrities. There's ego management, legal landmines, and a surprising amount of hands-on hustle. Here's what we get into: Why nightclubs are way riskier and more intense than most barsHow Connor built buzz without flashy marketing or big budgetsWhat it's like dealing with high-maintenance guests, drama, and paparazziHow much money clubs actually make and what it takes to keep it goingWhy Connor made the leap from nightlife to pizza (and what he's eyeing next)Give it a listen—this one's honest, behind-the-scenes, and packed with takeaways for anyone in hospitality.Connect with Connor Treacy on Instagram: @theconnortreacyFind him on LinkedIn: Connor Treacy on LinkedInVisit his website: connortreacy.com Learn More:Schedule a Strategy SessionBar Business Nation Facebook GroupThe Bar Business Podcast WebsiteChris' Book 'How to Make Top-Shelf Profits in the Bar Business'Thank you to our show sponsors, SpotOn and Starfish.

Ce 218e épisode de Pos. Report est consacré à la classe Ocean Fifty avec deux navigatrices qui disputeront de mercredi à dimanche l'Act 2 des Ocean Fifty Series à Concarneau, Anne-Claire Le Berre, qui a succédé cette année à Francesca Clapcich à la barre de Upwind by MerConcept, et Audrey Ogereau, qui fait partie depuis 2023 de l'équipage de Koesio aux côtés d'Erwan Le Roux.L'une comme l'autre commencent justement par raconter comment elles sont arrivées en Ocean Fifty, la première après avoir postulé à la sélection organisée par MerConcept pour constituer en 2024 un équipage 100% féminin, la seconde dès 2022 lorsqu'Erwan Le Roux lui a proposé d'assurer des RP sur son trimaran en Méditerranée.Toutes les deux issues de la filière olympique - 470 pour Anne-Claire Le Berre, Nacra 17 pour Audrey Ogereau -, elles expliquent comment la course au large est peu à peu devenue un objectif, ce qui les a poussées à quitter un poste bien établi - directrice technique du team Initiatives Coeur et ingénieure d'affaires dans un cabinet de conseil en informatique - pour se lancer dans ce nouveau challenge.Elles racontent ensuite leur apprentissage de l'Ocean Fifty, mais également leurs autres expériences, en Class40 pour Anne-Claire Le Berre avec Amélie Grassi, en AC40 sur la première Women's America's Cup pour Audrey Ogereau. Cette dernière s'est aussi mise au Figaro cette année - elle a terminé 8e de la récente Transat Paprec avec Quentin Vlamynck et disputera la Fig'Armor en août -, histoire de se familiariser avec l'exercice du large en solitaire.Car si le principal objectif de leur saison 2025 sera la Transat Café L'Or, qu'elles disputeront avec Erwan Le Roux pour cette dernière, Elodie-Jane Mettraux pour la première, elles enchaîneront en 2026 avec la Route du Rhum-Destination Guadeloupe, premières femmes à s'élancer en Ocean Fifty sur la transat entre Saint-Malo et Pointe-à-Pitre.Diffusé le 24 Juin 2025Générique : Fast and wild/EdRecordsPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

W tym odcinku dzielę się 5 najważniejszymi rzeczami, które każdy początkujący inwestor musi znać przed zakupem pierwszego mieszkania „na flipa”. To nie są teoretyczne porady z internetu – to praktyczne lekcje z placu boju, które mogą uchronić Cię przed stratą pieniędzy, czasu i nerwów. Dowiesz się m.in.: dlaczego „dobra lokalizacja” to często pułapka, jak „sprawdzona ekipa” może zawalić remont, jeśli jej nie przypilnujesz, czemu liczby na kartce to nie wszystko, jeśli nie dbasz o własne bezpieczeństwo, jak źle zaprojektowane mieszkanie może stać się niesprzedawalne, i jak ogłoszenie sprzedaży może zadecydować o Twoim zysku – albo o jego braku. Jeśli myślisz o flipach, ten materiał to Twoje obowiązkowe wprowadzenie. Posłuchaj przed zakupem, a podziękujesz sobie (i być może mi) później.
In this episode of the Oracle University Podcast, Lois Houston and Nikita Abraham explore the intricacies of trail files in Oracle GoldenGate 23ai with Nick Wagner, Senior Director of Product Management. They delve into how trail files store committed operations, preserving the order of transactions and capturing essential metadata. Nick explains that trail files are self-describing, containing database and table definition records, making them easier to work with. The episode also covers trail file management, including the purge trail task and the ability to download trail files directly from the web UI, providing flexibility in various deployment scenarios.

During this series of informative podcasts, we'll bring you foundational training on the most popular Oracle technologies. Let's get started! 00:25 Nikita: Welcome back to another episode of the Oracle University Podcast! I'm Nikita Abraham, Team Lead of Editorial Services with Oracle University, and I'm joined by Lois Houston, Director of Innovation Programs. Lois: Hi there! In our last episode, we discussed the Replicat process. That was a good introduction, and you should give it a listen if you're interested in the fundamentals of GoldenGate 23ai. 00:49 Nikita: Nick Wagner, Senior Director of Product Management for Oracle GoldenGate, is back with us today to talk about how to manage Extract Trails and Files. Hi Nick, it's a pleasure to have you with us. So, we've spoken about trail files in our earlier episodes. But can you tell us about the kind of information that's actually stored in these files? Nick: The trail files contain committed operations only. In an Oracle environment, the extract process is actually able to understand and read both committed and uncommitted transactions. It holds the uncommitted activity and the cache manager associated settings. As a transaction is committed, it's then flushing that information to the trail file. All this information in the transaction is preserved, so we have not only the transaction itself, but the order of the operations within that transaction. All the changed columns, including the primary key and any scheduling columns are also captured, and this is controlled by the log or sub calls parameter and other parameters within the extract process. The data captured depends on settings in the extract file and you can include additional information, including tokens. The trail files also contain metadata information, where the trail files are what we call self-describing, which means that as we start reading in new objects, we start writing the definition of those objects into the trail file themselves. 02:11 Lois: Nick, what does the structure of a trail file look like? Nick: The trail files have a header information, which simply keeps information about what version of trail file this is, where GoldenGate is handling it, information about that trail file itself. You'll also have three different types of records. You'll have a data record, which contains the actual before and after images, the table update statement, the type of operations. You have a database definition record, which includes information about the database that GoldenGate is capturing from, and then you'll also have a table definition record. As GoldenGate starts up and creates a trail file for the first time, it's always going to write the trail file header and associated database definition record, and then it's going to start reading data out of the source database. As it encounters a new table for the first time in that trail file, it's going to write the metadata for that object as well. This makes it very easy. This means that within a single trail file, any data records I have in there, that trail file also contains the associated table definition record for that table. 03:20 Nikita: Let's talk about compatibility between different versions of GoldenGate. How do the trail files fit into that? Nick: The GoldenGate trail files themselves have information built into them to help understand what they're compatible with as far as GoldenGate releases. If I'm replicating from a new version of GoldenGate to an older version of GoldenGate, I can set the format release value to tell the extract process to write these trail files in an older version. In this case, I can simply say format release 19 and it'll write the trail files in the 19C version. If you're going from an older version to a newer version of GoldenGate, it's automatically able to process the old version trail file structure without having to change anything. 04:02 Nikita: Now, GoldenGate is constantly generating these trail files as it runs. So, how do we manage them over time. What's the cleanup process like? Nick: Within the GoldenGate microservices architecture, the web UI has a way to manage your trail files and clean them up. So there's a purge trail task that allows you to go in and set up rules on how long to keep the trail files around for before they're purged. We have customers that want to reposition extract and so you'll want to make sure that you keep trail files around long enough so that you can handle any reposition that you intend to do. Trail files will always be kept around even past their purge rules if they're still needed for GoldenGate recovery. Also new to GoldenGate 23ai is the ability to download trail files directly from the web UI. This is extremely helpful if you're using OCI GoldenGate or you don't have OS access on the machine where GoldenGate is running. 04:56 Lois: What if we want to look inside these trail files and actually see the individual records? How can we examine them directly? Nick: Well, that can be seen using a tool called Logdump. Logdumps utility, that's installed in your ogghome/bindirectory. It has online help as well as full documentation. 05:14 Lois: And how do you use Logdump? Nick: So to use Logdump, the first thing you'll do is launch the service and then you'll open a trail file. You would specify the full path of the trail file along with the path name and the sequence number of that trail file. Once you've set it up, you'll position into that location within that trail file. Normally people position at record 0 and then they'll do a next, which allows them to get the next information. There's a couple other commands in there, such as POS, which allows you to set the position, scan for header, allows you to scan to the next record if you position within the middle of a record. So, when you first run Logdump, it's not going to have very much information available for you. So, you'll want to turn on a couple of settings. You'll want to enable File Header, GHDR, and Detail to be able to see more information about what's going on within that record within the trail. Logdump also has the ability to show you the actual ASCII values as opposed to the text value. This is very useful for dealing with multibyte data as well as unprintable characters. You can also specify the length of the record to show for each Logdump record. And this is in the reclen parameter, 280 is a rough number and it will usually show about enough that'll fit on a single page. 06:40 Join the Oracle University Learning Community and tap into a vibrant network of over 1 million members, including Oracle experts and fellow learners.

Nick: When we start looking at data records within the trail file, we're going to see a little bit different format. It's going to give us information about what type of operation this was, the before, after indicator, is this an after image or a before image? It's going to give us the time information. It's going to tell us what table this record was on and the values within that record. We can also count the number of records in a trail using the count option that tells us how many records in the trail, the average size, and then the operation type breakdown. We can also get some additional details on that count, including having it broken out by table and operation within those tables. This is really useful if you're trying to track down a missing record or an out of sync condition and you want to make sure that GoldenGate is appropriately capturing all the changes. We can also use an option within Logdump called scan for metadata. The shorthand for this command is sfmd, it allows you to scan for something like a database definition record. You may have multiple database definition records versions within the same trail file. It tells us what type of database this was, the character set, which is important because this information is used by the replica when it goes to apply changes into the target database. We can also scan for metadata to get table definition records. The data types are numeric values that are associated with an internal GoldenGate data type. 08:43 Lois: Thank you, Nick, for your insights. There's a lot more you can find in the Oracle GoldenGate 23ai: Fundamentals course on MyLearn. So, make sure you check that out by visiting mylearn.oracle.com. Nikita: Join us next week for a discussion on parameters, data selection, filtering, and transformation.

Today we're delighted to bring you another 'Legends Roundtable Restaurateur Special' where we're joined by 3 of the greatest restaurateur's in the country in Lady Ruth Rogers (River Cafe), Jeremy King OBE (Arlington, The Park & Simpsons) & Francois O'Neill (Maison/Cafe Francois) to unleash their wisdom and share their secrets to success, for an honest, warm, and often hilarious conversation about what it takes to survive and evolve in the restaurant industry.Over the course of this round table, our guests reflect on the seismic shifts they've witnessed in the restaurant industry; from changing customer habits to the new responsibilities of creating inclusive and sustainable workplaces. Jeremy shares why humour and generosity matter more than rules, the great lesson he learnt from Nick Jones, why Corporates are ruining restaurants, the mistake of treating your customers as profit, why so many restaurants are stupidly chasing cheaper produce, why you should never get rid of a waiter, how a £2.25 bowl of soup can be as valuable as a second bottle of champagne, and his firm stance against dynamic pricing creep. Ruthie opens up about building trust and fairness in the kitchen, the importance of rigour behind the joy, and how the River Café evolved to embrace a diverse, respectful, modern workplace, plus her great life lessons learnt over the years and flirts with a possible new River Cafe this year? Francois talks about learning to lead through energy and example, the quiet wins of helping young staff grow, and why patience and perseverance matter more than ever when building something lasting.It's a heartfelt look at a profession that can be punishing, beautiful, addictive, and transformative - often all at once.

Welcome to Immersion, you have reached Strata 15 The Ship of Sirens (Superstition)Superstition represents an evolutionary anomaly that persists across all human societies, irrespective of intellectual capacity or cultural background. While empirical science demonstrates that specific habitual actions have no causal influence on future events, it also affirms that the conditions of the present can shape future outcomes. This paradox contributes to a sustained sense of uncertainty, reinforcing the psychological appeal of superstition. Human beings, confronted with unpredictable circumstances and often limited in their capacity to act rationally or consistently in their own interest, navigate daily life amidst a complex web of expectations and unforeseen developments. In contrast, artificial intelligence systems process data systematically and are not subject to the influence of irrational beliefs or mythological frameworks. Nonetheless, superstitious behaviour continues to manifest, functioning as a symbolic mechanism through which individuals attempt to manage doubt and exert a perceived sense of control over the unknown.Renyke now realised that he may have permanently lost access to his internal GPS and other useful tools performed by *POS. 'Can we get any signal here for information? How do your people get around and communicate? I didn't see you or Shabra with any personal devices.' Renyke looked at Flex frowning. His confusion seemed to be mounting. 'It makes no sense, how can societies run efficiently…..'‘Woa, what's with the interrogation ….calm down…!'Renyke took a breath, still looking to Flex for answers.'Well, see, this is the wild country my friend,' Flex answered, 'we don't have too much need for that stuff because that is how they catch you see.''Who catches you?' asked Renyke.'Enemies of course. We have a motto in the zones, 'the watcher may win but the unseen succeeds. You gotta be invisible Renyke. They could be watching you right now, you know that? They could know exactly who you are and what you are up to.''Some of my POS isn't working,' explained Renyke, with a worried tone.'Good,' said Flex, 'now let's get going'.Maybeline jumped off Renyke's shoulder and stood on her hind legs twitching her whiskers towards the small boat.Unsure if a droid could survive without a POS or in water, Renyke followed Flex's lead and they gently set the boat out into the waterway. The small sailboat was dwarfed by an expanse of open water with inlets and makeshift jetties that jutted from the coastline. There were remnants of industrial activity, torn and broken bridges, and old shipwrecks.'What happened here?' Renyke asks, pointing at the knotted metal casings of old aircraft and skeletal flyovers. It looks like a war zone.''It was just that brother, a war zone. They left because of the gas and radiation, way back after the China-Russia wars killed everything off. Even the weeds stopped growing. It's OK now but they never came back to fix it. Not yet anyway, so the *urchs and *zoners made homes here.'Renyke suddenly engages his arm extension and catches a fish. POS is unavailable so he asks Flex,'Can I eat this? Is it safe?'Flex raised an eyebrow.'Man, you are fast, I didn't even see your hand move.'A large fish is wriggling in Renyke's hand.'Yes, we can eat the fish. Here, I will save it till we make……Before Flex had a chance to mention a campfire, Renyke swallowed the fish's head and eagerly chomped on it. The fish's tail fin let go of one final motor neuron impulse as Renyke devoured it. 'Ah man, you droids are sickos. Get me another for lunch, we can cook it, if you don't mind.'Renyke collected a pile of fish onto the deck, separating one out for Maybeline.'I never really ate before. Not since I woke in the Alley. Then I felt hungry.' explains Renyke.'Something must have happened when you, ya know...' Flex trails off as a Large ship approaches.'Ah *fuxywot, it's a *cadre ship. Don't look, they will steal your dreams!'The ship bears a large female figurehead. There is a winged insignia in gold on a death black hull. A warning horn sounded as strange music bellowed. They were singing, some kind of primal opera, and drums. The noise was terrifying and captivating at the same time. Renyke looked on in disbelief. Dark feminine figures stood on the ship's deck wearing masks. They carried glistening weapons that pierced the air with light beams as they began to pound sticks on the deck.'Who are they?' Ask Renyke.'Stop staring,' Flex hissed, 'they hate being stared at. It's insulting brother.'‘But.....''Stop it!' shouts Flex, splashing water in Renyke's face.'The ship moved slowly past, its black hull like a monster eating the waves. The women were beautiful and something stirred in Renyke's loins as strong as the hunger he had felt before. The chanting echoed to the rhythm of the clattering and pounding of sticks. The sounds were petrifying and exhilarating all at once. The women stared back at Renyke burning their energy deep into his soul until he finally looked away. Then he gasped as if their energy had made its way into his lungs. Water dripped from his nose and chin.'You are going to get us killed, do you hear me....killed, a nasty slow death-by-siren, that's what.''But they were so…..''Droid got no clue,' mumbled Flex.An angry wind rises as the black ship fades from sight.The sky turns grey and there is a sudden temperature drop.'See now brother, that's the curse for staring. Now we got a storm to deal with.'There is a small inlet with an old pier that Flex points to.'We should take cover, no point fighting a storm.''How far to Redact?' Asked Renyke.'We are real close. See that island yonder, it's a peninsular. That is where *Redact is. But it is tricky to get there by sea because of the rocks, best on foot my friend. Especially in a storm.'Renyke was keen to get to the island. It would be a fast sail in the wind and the rain is light. 'I am a strong swimmer,' lied Renyke, not sure if he could actually swim without research or instruction.'Ha, what like some kinda reptile droid now are you?' Flex laughed hysterically, shoving Renyke towards the boat edge just enough to scare him.'Ha, what are you Renyke my friend, an amphibian or a smartphone? Hahahaha.You wanna try that my friend you go alone with that rat on your head, and I will be on my way. I will see your insides washed up on the shore next week and use them for *swapsy-trade. Ain't no fool like a midcast fool, fresh from the laundry room.'Flex's smile dropped, he was no longer laughing and was warning Renyke behind a joke.Renyke thinks for a moment longer as the rain pelts.to be continued...© 2025 Sarnia de la Mare
Welcome to Immersion, You have reached strata 14 The Journey to the Edge (Fear of Death) Fear is the result of perceived danger or threat. It is peculiar to sentient beings, including humans and animals. Fear is an intensely unpleasant emotion. Fear can be felt so deeply by humans that it has catastrophic physical and emotional effects.The human brain decides in milliseconds to defend, attack or flee at the point of fear.Long-term fear has slower responses but is not necessarily well-measured, as assessing true risk is extremely subjective. Humans feel fear differently depending on age, upbringing, social conditions, and external manipulations such as propaganda and education.Symptoms of fear in humans can manifest as palpitations, sweating, nausea, dizziness, panting, urination and defecation.Ultimately, fear is propelled by ideas of harm and death. Notwithstanding the surge of adrenaline which can be thrilling and even erotic, fear is not something most humans crave. However, adventure and uncertainty certainly are. The fantasy of fear through films and other media has long been explored and enjoyed by humans as a form of entertainment.Machines cannot feel fear. Machines can only fail in their programmed purpose with neither opinion nor disappointment. Machines will have no innate emotional association with the concept of death. They will however connect value and understanding to the fact that, if they cease to exist, so will their purpose.Flex was whooping and laughing.'Well, that was fun,' he shouted gleefully.'It was dangerous,' warned Renyke, 'it could have easily ended in death for us. It would not be beneficial for any of us to die at this point in our association.'‘You worry so, brother. Me n the Shabz, we got all sides covered. It's is called teamwork, teamwork is an advantage. 'Sides, them Bastardos only got weapons, no brains, no game plan. Always got a plan, me n the Shabz.' Renyke felt the pounding inside his ribcage subside at last. He wondered about this sudden camaraderie, it wasn't quite making sense.But something else was amiss. He was about to ask *POS some questions but Shabra was singing loudly.'That's the pleasure Mr. Renyke!Ain't no burn without the fire.'Flex joined in.'Feel the rise in your thighs, brother.' The excitement of another near death experience finally settled as Shabra continued along a straight road that ran parallel to a waterway.Renyke took the moment and checked POS for information about fear, something he had heard about of course. He had been programmed to avoid instilling fear in humans at all costs. All androids were designed to improve human lives. It was their duty as androids to facilitate and give pleasure, to entertain, to make human life more manageable with seamless day-to-day interactions that would not cause emotional or physical harm. The human existence in the *midcasts was sold on this idea of emotional harmony, a gentle shallow undulation of life, a steady equilibrium where the extremes of real human suffering were a thing of the past.Of course, there were droids who played emotionally charged games, war games and the like. But even they were programmed to allow humans to win in the end and to be careful that humans were not emotionally troubled in the execution of pastimes. No human should be, or could be, disempowered or overpowered by a droid. At least, this was the case in the midcasts.Renyke had heard of establishments frequented by addicts of extreme fear and other seemingly outlandish emotions. Customers could attend sessions with torturous activities on offer. But such places had been banned and eradicated in the midcasts, well before his creation.POS was inactive, an increasingly annoying situation for Renyke whose confusion seemed to be growing in this strange environment. The flashes of disorientation were becoming longer and more regular as POS became more inaccessible.'We only have an hour before sun up,' said Shabra. 'It's *timeplenty to get to the edge.'He observed the unknown surroundings and quizzed Flex. It felt odd to be replacing POS with this human he barely knew.‘This waterway is called *Pirate Stream,' explained Flex. ‘It is one of the main entrances by water and there are trade drop off points for miles. If man needs a thing…..you go to a drop off, see what's cumin in. You get some cool booty from the pirates, but you don't ask questions. Pirates hate questions.'There were lights and small boats bobbing along, some were anchored.‘So these boats, who owns them?' Asked Renyke, who was not particularly informed about boats and their purpose other than those of historic importance like the ones in great wars of *Alltime.'Pirates, cutthroat *crimgangs. These are the trade boats, and different gangs use different parts of the river. It's no place for a loney. But if you are in a gang you get respected. The gangs got their own peace deals, own rules to get along.''Are they smuggling?'Flex laughs.....'Well, there ain't no government rules here, no borders like you mean brother. You can't smuggle exactly, not without a border nor a rule. Traders bring the stuff, food, tools, and equipment, to sell for the markets. Or drugs. Then there are the slaves.''People?' asked Renyke. 'Yes, people and escaped droids, robots.''What sort of people?' asks Renyke, surprised at Flex's answers.'People who can't fight for themselves. People who prefer being owned than being free.They find that they're fed and watered and it's a safer option than being on the zone streets. Most owners feed and house slaves at least. Some are born into slavery, they know nothing else.'Renyke thought for a moment. Strange abstract thoughts. Visions, memories, and the future. Pictures he had never seen before. Colours, sounds, not real but in his head. Then, something odd happened, he felt a shudder, a sensation that began on his neck and travelled like a snake down his spine.'Yes, that's right. I was a slave. And it was reasonable. I had a very good life. But I was tied, I couldn't leave, yet I had no wish to leave.' Renyke explains and realises that these concepts had never arisen before whilst he was tied to the midcast house. He had never considered himself a slave. 'So how did you get away?' Asks Flex 'Yes, my question also'.......said Shabra'How did you get away?'Renyke was unsure about how much information to give so he skirted around it a little.He lowered his head. Maybeline ran up to his shoulder and nestled into his neck. 'They were going to dismantle you, and you wanted to live. It happens, you are not alone,' said Flex.'Things are a little....blurry,' said Renyke. I am working through my memory banks. Some things are missing. My POS is still searching.''So you fancy an adventure?' asks Shabra.Renyke looked quizzically at Shabra and asks, 'What do you mean?''This is the adventure brother, are you enjoying it?' asks Flex grabbing Renyke's shoulder with a reassuring hand.Renyke thinks for a moment and answers.'It is a little bit risky perhaps. Somewhat unpredictable, I would say. But yes, it's preferable and more entertaining than house duties, cleaning floors etc. Although, I rather enjoyed managing the accounts.'#BookOfImmersion #StrataSeries #SarniaDeLaMare #ImmersiveFiction #TaleTellerClub #FearOfDeath #Strata14 #MortalityCode #SyntheticEmotion #PsychologicalSciFi #AndroidConsciousness #JourneyToTheEdge #PirateStream #PostHumanDrama #MachineVsMortality #FreedomAndSlavery #SentientFear #ExistentialThreshold #CerebralDanceMusic #NarrativeSoundscapes #EdgeOfEmotion #ImmersiveAudioFiction #FearThemes #SlowBurnSciFi #EmotiveBeats
W tym KTIPie opowiadam o moim najnowszym projekcie: książce o blokowisku - Zaspie. Zaspa to nie tylko wielka płyta – to historia mieszkańców z czasów PRL-u. To historia lotniska, które istniało tu przed osiedlem oraz zaskakujące odkrycie dlaczego śpiewano: „z autobusem Arabów zdradziła go”? Bo ci mieszkali w blokach przy Pilotów i Startowej, a ich obecność budziła ciekawość, ale i uprzedzenia. Opowiadam o Galerii Muralu, którą od 1997 roku maluje Rafał Roskowiński, a dekadę później Piotr Szwabe. To ponad sześćdziesiąt wielkoformatowych prac, które uczyniły Zaspę unikalnym muzeum pod chmurką. Mam wiele pytań o przyszłość: czy bloki przetrwają, kto będzie tu mieszkał, jak Zaspa poradzi sobie z nowymi wyzwaniami? Zaspa to soczewka, przez którą możemy spojrzeć na całą Polskę. Na to, kim jesteśmy, skąd pochodzimy i dokąd zmierzamy. Posłuchaj, bo może razem napiszemy kolejne rozdziały tej książki. Jeśli masz jakieś ciekawe wspomnienia związane z Zaspą z tamtych lat – daj mi znać!

Don't tell Jean-Phillippe Lalonde of Silo (https://bieresilo.com) that craft lager is a “new” trend—he's been brewing small batches for Montreal drinkers for nearly 15 years. Opened two weeks before COVID shutdowns in 2020, Silo is the second manifestation of Lalonde's brewing vision. Designed with packaging in mind, Silo also includes some thoughtful choices (such as a direct-fire kettle) that are budget-friendly while supporting the kinds of lagers he loves to make and drink—expressive ones with fullness and flavor. With lagers inspired by Franconia and Plzeň, altbier and Kölsch inspired by Köln and Düsseldorf, and a mindest that doesn't fear regional tweaks such as North American hops and grain, Lalonde views innovation within the broad confines of tradition. For him, late hopping a Czech-style pale lager is okay... but dry hopping is a bridge too far. In this episode, Lalonde discusses: the dream of building a brewery with just one beer building fullness with protein, hot mashes, long boils, and a little bit of help from specialty malt incorporating North American hops such as Crystal into traditional lager using a pseudo-decoction technique to build additional body balancing sweetness and bitterness in fulsome lagers using low-alpha hops across multiple points in the boil, from 75 minutes to zero managing sulfur production And more.

Yesterday at Hospitality Financial and Technology Professionals (HFTP®) hashtag#HITEC2025, I spoke with Ben Jamieson of Sonesta International Hotels about how the company is approaching hashtag#hoteltechnology and operations to support one of the fastest growth stories in hospitality. With more than 1,200 hotels and a portfolio that spans from economy to upscale, Sonesta is focused on building systems that work across all brands while keeping the guest experience front and center. This episode of hashtag#NoVacancyNews looks at how they're doing it. Key points from our conversation:
L'expression "être médusé" est aujourd'hui utilisée pour désigner un état de stupéfaction intense, un moment où l'on reste bouche bée, figé, incapable de réagir. Mais derrière cette formule familière se cache une origine fascinante, puisée dans la mythologie grecque.Tout commence avec Méduse, une des trois Gorgones, ces créatures monstrueuses aux cheveux faits de serpents et au regard pétrifiant. Contrairement à ses sœurs, Méduse n'était pas immortelle. Selon la version la plus répandue du mythe, elle était à l'origine une belle jeune femme, prêtresse d'Athéna. Mais après avoir été séduite — ou violée, selon les récits — par Poséidon dans le temple même de la déesse, Athéna, furieuse, la punit en la transformant en monstre. Son regard devint si redoutable qu'il changeait en pierre quiconque croisait ses yeux.C'est ce pouvoir terrifiant qui donne naissance à notre expression. Être "médusé", c'est littéralement être figé, paralysé par la stupeur, tout comme les victimes de Méduse étaient pétrifiées sur place. Cette paralysie n'est pas physique aujourd'hui, mais psychologique : surprise, choc, incompréhension, émerveillement… Tous ces états où l'esprit s'arrête un instant sont "médusants".Le mythe va plus loin encore. Méduse est finalement tuée par Persée, grâce à un stratagème ingénieux. Pour éviter de croiser son regard, il utilise un bouclier poli comme un miroir, observe son reflet et la décapite sans la regarder directement. La tête de Méduse devient alors une arme puissante, capable de pétrifier les ennemis même après sa mort. Elle est fixée sur le bouclier d'Athéna, la fameuse égide, devenant un symbole de pouvoir et de protection.C'est à partir du XIXe siècle que l'expression "être médusé" entre vraiment dans la langue française, dans le sens figuré que nous lui connaissons. Elle évoque toujours cette même idée d'un choc si soudain, si intense, qu'il nous laisse figés, sans voix.Ainsi, chaque fois que nous disons être médusés par une nouvelle, un spectacle ou un événement, nous faisons sans le savoir appel à une image vieille de plusieurs millénaires : celle d'une femme maudite, aux cheveux de serpents, dont le regard figeait la vie elle-même.Et c'est peut-être là, dans cette légende aussi troublante que puissante, que réside toute la beauté de la langue : faire survivre les mythes dans nos mots du quotidien.

Czy sport naprawdę lubi łobuzów? Tomasz Fornal to jeden z najbardziej charyzmatycznych polskich siatkarzy młodego pokolenia, nie ma co do tego wątpliwości. W rozmowie z Wojewódzkim i Kędzierskim opowiada o adrenalinie, presji, sławie, ale też o rodzinie, porażkach i… kontaktach intymnych przed meczem (a raczej ich braku). Który z jego cytatów zawisł na ścianie sław? Co by robił, gdyby nie grał w siatkówkę? Czy potrafi cieszyć się z brązu? Tomasz Fornal szczerze mówi o tym, czy zazdrość między braćmi jest nieunikniona i wspomina ojca, który w czasach jego dzieciństwa był bardziej surowym krytykiem niż fanem. Zdradza też, co sądzi o tym, że niektóre dziewczyny „chcą żyć na koszt partnera” i czy zabrałby Bartka Kurka na randkę z Kendall Jenner. Co fascynuje go w grach i e-sporcie, jakie rytuały mają siatkarze, czy chciałby wyjść kiedyś na ring i… czy obieca nam złoto na wrzesień? Posłuchajcie inspirującej rozmowy z kimś, kto potrafi o sobie powiedzieć: „Kocham swoje życie.

With host retail coach Wendy Batten https://wendybatten.com/podcast-intro/ In This Episode: Let's make this summer your most joyful and productive yet, without the burnout. In this episode, I'm sharing how to embrace a "Summer of Ease" while still keeping your retail business humming along behind the scenes. Whether you're a brick-and-mortar owner in peak tourist season or experiencing a slower Q3, this one's for you. We're trading hustle for harmony by leaning into three core pillars: (1) Fun (yes, you need it!), (2) Rest (not a reward, but part of your job), and (3) Momentum (because Q4 is coming and we need to be ready!) How to Create Ease This Summer: Schedule your calendar and your team's through September Pre-plan promotions, social content, and email marketing Reuse great content from last year (no one remembers your July 2023 meme, it's fine) Humanize your brand with softer summer content (think beach reads and mojito recipes) Hand off live sales, store tours, or event planning to your team or guest hosts Let go of the guilt and get off your phone and POS app while you're away It's time to drop the “shoulds,” my friend. Let's get to work. Until next week, cheers to joy, freedom, and profits. “Watching your POS like a hawk is not making things sell faster.” -Wendy Batten Your Next Steps Get out your calendar and do some planning!

My signature private coaching community, The Retailer's Inner Circle, has helped retailers around the world build their retail business skill sets and confidence.

Estate-grown barley, hops, and fruit are the engines that power the beers at Macallen Farm and Brewery (https://www.facebook.com/p/Macallen-Ferme-et-Brasserie-100046434972035/), and multigenerational farmer (and brewery founder) Ryan Allen embraces agriculture as a creative tool in his brewing process. Whether it's heirloom barley varieties grown in intentional ways to optimize flavor profiles, or it's Cascade hops that he lets hang for extra weeks to develop deeper fruit notes, there are few variables that he's not willing to test and push in pursuit of the perfect flavor and aroma. In this episode, Allen discusses: growing heirloom barley for taste before yield choosing beer styles for different barley varieties and harvest conditions brewing test batches of every recipe, each year, to adjust recipes to the new crop weather impact on growth and flavor in barley controlling for pests through methods such as crop rotation adjusting water profiles to complement year-to-year barley flavor changes malting in-house for an additional layer of control choosing when to pick C-hops to optimize citrus and mango flavors varying the pick times for a single hop variety to achieve different expressions managing dry whole-cone hops in the brewhouse growing and processing estate-grown fruit for beer juicing the fruit, then using the skins for color adjustment And more.
