On this episode of Eat the Damn Bread, I'm taking you beyond the City of Light and into the sun-drenched hills of the South of France to one of the most magical places I've ever wandered, St. Paul de Vence. Don't get me wrong, Paris is, well...Paris, but sometimes the most Parisian thing you can do is skip Paris and choose stillness over spectacle and presence over pressure, which is what the French lifestyle is really all about. Tune in because I'm sharing: Why St. Paul de Vence completely stole my heart How you can get there easily from Nice (on a budget or in style) What makes this village feel like a living, breathing piece of art Where to sip rosé, see Picasso's legacy, and feel James Baldwin's spirit This town feels like Provence and the Riviera fell in love and had a very chic baby—and trust me, it's worth the visit. I'll also let you in on how we're incorporating this dreamy spot into my upcoming French Riviera Retreat, including a golden hour dinner that will be very hard to rival and unlikely to forget! ✨ Whether you travel with me or venture out solo, I hope this episode inspires you to slow down, explore with intention, and fall in love with the parts of France that don't always make the top 10 lists—but leave a lasting mark on your soul. Visit thecuratedretreat.com to learn more about joining me on retreat, and if you go to St. Paul de Vence on your own… please let me know! I want to hear all about it.   Useful Resources: Let's be friends, oui?! •

Selon une enquête menée par Preply auprès de 1 500 Français, les perceptions des accents régionaux révèlent une hiérarchie assez marquée, influencée autant par des considérations esthétiques que par des stéréotypes culturels profondément ancrés.L'accent du Sud (notamment celui de Marseille ou de la Provence) est le grand favori : 42 % des sondés déclarent l'apprécier. Cet accent est généralement perçu comme chaleureux, chantant, expressif — il évoque le soleil, la convivialité, l'humour, voire la générosité. En deuxième position, l'accent basque est également très bien vu (27 %), sans doute en raison de son caractère affirmé, exotique et de son lien avec une culture locale forte et fière.À l'inverse, certains accents régionaux recueillent très peu d'adhésion. L'accent alsacien et l'accent breton ne séduisent que 8 % des répondants. L'accent normand et l'accent lyonnais arrivent en queue de classement avec seulement 6 % de votes favorables. Ces faibles scores s'expliquent par plusieurs facteurs.D'abord, la musicalité perçue joue un rôle : les accents jugés "secs", "plats" ou "peu mélodieux" séduisent moins. L'accent alsacien, influencé par des sonorités germaniques, peut être ressenti comme plus "dur", plus rigide. L'accent lyonnais, plus discret et peu marqué, est souvent jugé "neutre" ou "sans charme". Le normand et le breton sont associés à des régions rurales, pluvieuses, et parfois à une image moins dynamique ou moins valorisée.Ensuite, il faut noter l'importance de la dimension sociale et culturelle. Certains accents, comme celui du Sud, véhiculent une image positive liée à la chaleur humaine, à l'humour et à la détente. D'autres, comme le parisien, sont associés à la norme linguistique nationale. Il n'est pas massivement aimé (10 %), mais il bénéficie d'un prestige implicite, notamment dans les sphères professionnelles, éducatives ou médiatiques.Ces préférences révèlent aussi la persistance d'une forme de glottophobie : une discrimination fondée sur la manière de parler. Dans la société française, la centralisation historique autour de Paris et l'importance accordée au français "standard" ont contribué à dévaloriser les accents régionaux pendant des décennies. Même si la fierté locale et l'identité culturelle régionale progressent, les préjugés restent forts, surtout envers les parlers considérés comme "ruraux", "difficiles à comprendre" ou "moins prestigieux".En résumé, les accents les plus aimés en France sont ceux qui évoquent la chaleur, l'authenticité et la joie de vivre. Les moins aimés, eux, souffrent souvent d'une faible visibilité médiatique, d'une connotation austère ou d'un manque de reconnaissance culturelle. Cette hiérarchie linguistique en dit long sur les rapports que les Français entretiennent avec leur propre diversité. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

C'est l'histoire d'une maladie affreuse, doublée d'expérience sur les afro-américains et d'une dose de racisme. En gros, on fait croire à toute une catégorie de population qu'on va les traiter, mais, en fait, on veut juste les voir mourir et constater les effets de la maladie.  À noter , un film a été fait sur le sujet, Miss Ever's boys sorti en 1997.

Main character Dr. Valentina Hargrove is on a mission to prove once and for all that hockey players are modern-day cavemen. Her research? A rigorous, scientific analysis of their behavior. Her problem? Brock “The Rock” Thomson, captain of the Alexandria Eagles, who's as infuriatingly charming as he is undeniably intelligent. Brock's used to breaking records, not be a research model, but Dr. Val's experiment has him intrigued. The more time they spend together, the more he's determined to show her that not all hockey players fit her outdated hypothesis. And when her professional curiosity turns personal, Val is forced to ask herself: is she studying a player… or falling for one? A delightful mix of sports romance and relatable themes that will keep readers engaged. It's perfect for fans of forced proximity and the coach's daughter tropes, offering a fun ride through attraction, discovery, and the choices we make. About the author: International Bestselling Author Ava Miles and her powerful fiction and non-fiction books about love, happiness, and transformation have received praise and accolades from USA Today, Publishers Weekly, and People Magazine in addition to being chosen as Best Books of the Year and Top Editor's picks and translated into multiple languages. After years of residing in the States, she decided to follow her dream of living in Europe. She recently finished a magical stint in Ireland where she was inspired to write her acclaimed Unexpected Prince Charming series. Now, she splits her time between Paris and Provence, learning to speak French, immersing herself in cooking à la provençal, and planning more page-turning novels for readers to binge. For more info: https://avamiles.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Mes chers camarades, bien le bonjour !La Préhistoire, c'est long ! Et si je vous dis cette vérité générale, c'est parce que quand on pense à l'art préhistorique, souvent on le résume aux peintures rupestres, comme celles des grottes de Lascaux ou Chauvet par exemple. Alors que forcément, l'art, sur une période aussi large… c'est beaucoup plus vaste que ça ! Rien qu'en changeant de période et en passant du Paléolithique au Néolithique, eh beh on en n'entend quasiment jamais parler, c'est dire, et je trouve ça dommage ! Alors pour que ça soit un peu plus le cas, j'ai eu le plaisir de recevoir dans un nouvel entretien historique Jules Masson Mourey qui en est spécialiste, et en particulier des représentations humaines du Néolithique !Je vous souhaite une bonne écoute sur Nota Bene !➤ Merci à notre partenaire Elgato de nous avoir accompagné sur cet entretien !

What does it mean to be split between two places? Where we come from, and where we work? For actor Louise Pascal, putting on a character is part and parcel of her daily life, but one that relies on her returning to her childhood garden to ground herself in the realities of a landscape weathering the climate crisis. We meet Louise in the village of Cucuron, over an Orangina, next to a pretty, tree-lined pond. There, she tells us about how to live a life caught between the bustle of Paris and the expanse of Provence, and how she connects with nature to give her hope in a changing world. Louise's latest film just premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, and is called Colours of Time, but you can see more from behind the scenes of her acting and gardening on Instagram - @louisepascal.  This podcast is inspired by Alice's book, ⁠Why Women Grow: Stories of Soil, Sisterhood and Survival⁠, which is available in all good bookshops.

Her research projects attempt to understand riddles of premodern Jewish culture byexploring them within their broader historical, geographic and religious contexts, both Islamicand Christian. Along with many articles – some on Hasidei Ashkenaz, Fishman is the author of Shaking the Pillars of Exile: "Voice of a Fool"'s Early Modern Jewish Critique of Rabbinic Culture, (Stanford University Press, 1997), and Becoming the People of the Talmud: Oral Torah as Written Tradition Medieval Jewish Cultures (2011), Winner of 2011 Nahum M. Sarna Award for Scholarship of the National Jewish Book Council. She co-edited Regional Identities and Cultures of Medieval Jews, (Littman Library, Oxford, 2018) with Ephraim Kanarfogel. In the soon-to-be published What is Talmud, edited by Jay Harris and Christine Hayes and (Harvard University Press), her article, “Medieval Jewish Subcultures Receive the Talmudic Text: The Impact of Regional Trends and Antecedent Oral Cultures”, further develops the thesis that certain differences in the halakhic cultures of Ashkenaz, Sefarad and Provence are linked to perduring assumptions about composition and authority that were specific to discrete geographic regions in antiquity. Professor Fishman's current research project concerns the place of materiality in medieval Jewish thought and experience.

This week on #OnTheScentPodcast, Nicola returns from her travels, bringing a suitcase of scented stories and soul-soothing rituals. To calm flight nerves, she reached for the tranquil embrace of @neomwellbeing Calming Pen, the protective cocoon of @subtleenergies Aura Protection Body Mist, and the bohemian spirit of @thameenfragrance Bohemian Infusion, woven through her scarf like a fragrant talisman.The hotel's air shimmered with the signature scent of @annesemoninfrance - luxurious, luminous, and lingering in every soap and lotion, a memory Nicola carried home & treasures.Back in London, she delighted in the luminous @diptyque & @susannekaufmann_ scented lip oil collaboration, and the witty, fresh @akt_ldn Hay Fever deodorant balm, inspired by Noël Coward's iconic play.While Nicola wafted abroad, Suzy uncovered new treasures here: she was enchanted by @4160tuesdays Vianne's Confession, a story in scent: sea salt and cacao, incense and tomato leaf, rose and rain-dappled cobblestones; crafted with Joanne Harris for her latest novel.Both Suzy & Nicola swooned in the stunning @cologneandcotton's Marylebone boutique, celebrating the relaunch of their own fragrances (both fell for Arbela: a sparkling, sunlit blend of petitgrain, sweet orange, and lemon.)Suzy's fragrant adventures continued at a @nissaba.fragrances Masterclass @jovoymayfair with Sébastien Tissot. Her faves: Provence sang of lavender fields and aromatic herbs, Berbera smouldered with ancient incense and myrrh, while Grande Ile enveloped her in a spiced vanilla embrace, rich with Madagascar's precious ingredients.Finally, Suzy donned green to match the bottle for the launch of @ormondejayne Vetiveria: a dreamy Sicilian lime and Timur pepper fizz atop a heart of snowbell and lavender, rooted in vetiver, moss, and creamy tonka.

C dans l'air du 30 mai 2025 : Guerre commerciale : et si les juges bloquaient TrumpUn nouveau camouflet judiciaire pour Donald Trump. Mercredi, un tribunal américain a suspendu la plupart des droits de douane instaurés par le milliardaire républicain depuis son retour à la Maison-Blanche : les 10 % imposés sur tous les produits entrant sur le sol américain mais aussi ceux plus importants imposés au Mexique, au Canada et à la Chine. Une décision qui touche en plein cœur l'un des chevaux de bataille du président américain : la guerre commerciale.Les juges de l'ITC (International Trade Commission) ont estimé que Donald Trump avait outrepassé ses pouvoirs en appliquant des surtaxes non ciblées, une prérogative qui revient normalement au Congrès. "Cela constituerait un renoncement du pouvoir législatif au profit d'une autre branche du gouvernement", ont écrit les magistrats dans leur décision. Une violation de la Constitution américaine, selon eux.De quoi déclencher la fureur de la Maison-Blanche. Donald Trump a conspué une décision "horrible", à l'initiative, selon lui, de "juges gauchistes" non élus. Dans la foulée, le gouvernement a déposé une requête, annonçant être prêt à se tourner vers la Cour suprême pour obtenir, dès vendredi, la levée de cette suspension temporaire. Mais une cour d'appel a accédé à sa demande jeudi, le temps de se prononcer sur le fond.Ce nouvel épisode judiciaire illustre la guerre menée par Donald Trump contre les pouvoirs législatif et judiciaire. Une bataille dans les tribunaux qui touche au fondement même de la démocratie américaine et de l'État de droit. Vigies de la Constitution, les juges fédéraux tentent de faire respecter l'équilibre des pouvoirs, alors que, des droits de douane à l'immigration, le milliardaire ne cesse d'enfreindre le périmètre qui revient normalement aux élus du Congrès et d'attaquer tous les contre-pouvoirs. Parmi eux se trouvent également les médias, les facultés — en particulier la prestigieuse université de Harvard — et les organes de recherche. Depuis le retour de Donald Trump à la Maison-Blanche, les purges se multiplient : des départements sont supprimés, des postdoctorants sont éjectés, des pontes envoyés en retraite anticipée… et de nombreux chercheurs vivent désormais dans l'angoisse et l'incertitude. Certains font le choix de rejoindre la France, qui se pose en terre d'accueil pour les scientifiques en exil.

There is a widely-accepted, time-honored custom to light candle in memory of a loved one, or of a Sadik, during the Shiba mourning period, and each year on the Yahrtzeit. Although this practice is not mentioned explicitly anywhere in the Talmud, it might be alluded to in two places. First, the Gemara relates that before Rebbi (Rabbi Yehuda Ha'nasi) passed away, he gave his sons a number of instructions, one of which was that there should be a candle lit by his place. Rashi explains that Rebbi's soul returned to his home every Friday night to be with his wife, ad so he asked that there would be a candle lit by his place in honor of Shabbat. But the Yabetz (Rav Yaakob Emden, Germany, 1697-1776) suggests that this might be a basis for the custom to light a candle in honor of one's deceased parent, as Rebbi's instruction could be understood to mean that he wanted his children to light a candle in his honor. Another possible source is the Gemara's discussion in Masechet Berachot (53) of the Beracha "Boreh Me'oreh Ha'esh" recited over a flame on Mosa'eh Shabbat. The Gemara states that this Beracha may be recited only over a candle that was lit for illumination purposes, as opposed to "Ner Shel Metim" – "the candle of the deceased" – which is lit in honor of the deceased, and not for illumination. This would certainly indicate that there was a practice to light candles in honor of the deceased. However, this might refer only to candles lit around the deceased before burial, as opposed to our practice to light candles during Shiba and on the Yahrtzeit. In the writings of the Rishonim, we find mention of this concept in the Kolbo (by Rav Yehonatan of Lunel, Provence, late 13th-early 14th century), in the section discussing the laws of Yom Kippur. He writes that it is customary to light candles on Ereb Yom Kippur in memory of one's deceased parents. This custom is brought by the Rama (Rav Moshe Isserles, Cracow, 1530-1572) in his glosses to the Shulhan Aruch. The Mishna Berura (Rav Yisrael Meir Kagan of Radin, 1839-1933) writes that even the deceased are, in a sense, judged on Yom Kippur, and so we light candles in their memory as a source of merit for them. What's the explanation of this practice? How does lighting a candle benefit the soul of the deceased? One explanation is that lighting a candle in itself brings no benefit to the deceased, but when candles are lit in the synagogue, this fulfills a Misva which brings merit to the deceased's soul. Generations ago, candles were needed for illumination, and so lighting candles in the synagogue was a very important Misva. Indeed, it was customary years ago for people to donate oil for the lights in the synagogue in merit of a deceased parent. More generally, lighting candles enhances the atmosphere of the synagogue, and this, too, constitutes a Misva which brings merit to the deceased. (Interestingly, one contemporary work suggested that it would be appropriate to donate towards the synagogue's electric bill as a merit for the deceased, just as years ago people would donate oil for the lights.) According to this explanation, the value of lighting candles is only when it is done for a Misva, meaning, when the candles are lit in the synagogue. However, the Ben Ish Hai (Rav Yosef Haim of Baghdad, 1833-1909), in his Torah Li'shmah, writes that the lighting itself brings comfort and joy to the soul of the deceased. He explains that a soul is like a candle, and similar entities are attracted to one another. Therefore, when a candle is lit at a place where the soul is present, the soul experiences some degree of enjoyment. However, the Ben Ish Hai emphasizes that this is relevant only in the place where the soul is present – namely, in the deceased's home during the Shiba period, or at the grave. According to the Ben Ish Hai, then, there is no purpose to light a candle in memory of the deceased in his or her home after the Shiba, or even during the Shiba if the mourning is observed somewhere other than the deceased's home. Regardless, the Poskim accorded great importance to this custom. It is mentioned in the major works on mourning (Gesher Ha'haim, Ma'abar Yabok). In fact, the Mishna Berura (261) writes that during the period of Ben Ha'shemashot after sundown on Friday afternoon, when it is permissible to ask a gentile to perform a Melacha (forbidden activity) on one's behalf when there is a great need, one may ask a gentile to light a Yahrtzeit candle. Meaning, if one forgot the light the candle before Shabbat, he may ask a non-Jew to do so during the period of Ben Ha'shemashot, because this is considered a matter of great need. Likewise, Hacham Bension Abba Shaul (Israel, 1924-1998) writes that if one has Yahrtzeit on Yom Tob and forgot to light the candle before Yom Tob, he may light it on Yom Tob (from a preexisting flame). This is considered a significant enough need to permit lighting a candle on Yom Tob. When lighting the candle, the Ben Ish Hai writes, it is proper to declare that the candle is being lit for the "Menuhat Nefesh" ("rest of the soul") or "Iluy Nefesh" ("elevation of the soul") of the deceased, mentioning the deceased's name. It is also proper to give some charity at the time the candle is lit. Some opinions say it is preferable to use oil for this candle, because the word "Shemen" ("oil") has the letters of "Neshama," whereas others say wax should be used, because the letters of the word "Sha'ava" ("wax") represent the verse, "Hakisu Ve'ranenu Shocheneh Afar" – "Awaken and rejoice, those who lie in the earth," the verse which speaks of the resurrection of the dead in the future. Summary: There is a time-honored custom to light a candle in memory of a deceased loved one during the Shiba mourning period, and on the Yahrtzeit. According to one view, the candles are lit in the synagogue as a merit for the deceased, whereas others explain that a candle lit in a place where the deceased's soul is present brings joy and comfort to the soul. Therefore, according to many opinions, the candles should be lit only in the deceased's home during Shiba, at the grave, or in the synagogue.

Gerard Bertrand had not been in Los Angeles for a few years. He comes every 4-5 years to put on a Master Class of the wines of the Provence. You see, he has been a major force in bring the wines from the area to the notice of the wine world. He forms biodynamicaly but keeps his ear to the ground as to what the market place is asking for. I was fortunate enough to catch him with a spare 40 minutes before he was on-stage exposing the virtues of his families heritage. Who knew that a winemaker could wax poetic about geology, spirituality, and diplomacy all in the time it takes to swirl a glass? Listeners tuning in to this episode of Wine Talks will discover that Monsieur Gérard Bertrand is no ordinary figure in the wine world—he's a philosopher in vintner's clothing, a passionate steward of the land, and a tireless advocate for capturing the "footprint of the vintage" in every bottle. Step into an illuminating conversation where you'll learn how wine is so much more than fermented grapes; it's an evolving tapestry of soil health, family tradition, and a vehicle for cross-cultural connection. Bertrand shares generational wisdom gleaned from his father, delves into the radical promises of biodynamic farming (think 47,000 links of underground life, not just a vineyard full of grapes), and reveals why wine's emotional resonance surpasses any other beverage—anchored, perhaps, in what he calls “the grace of God.” You'll hear why true excellence in winemaking isn't an accident, but the convergence of balance, intent, terroir, and soul, shaped over years of patience and experimentation. Beyond the vineyard, Bertrand explores wine's role in diplomacy and spirituality, reflecting on its unique ability to bring people together across religions, continents, and centuries. If you're curious about what it takes to move from an entry-level “good” to an “exceptional” glass, how the moon and microbial life can change the soul of a vineyard, or why pouring a bottle becomes a kind of ceremony, this episode offers a rare, intimate look. Prepare to have your notions of wine expanded, your sense of ritual deepened, and your next bottle charged with new meaning.
