At least 10 people were injured in a shooting incident at Ritz Junction, Madina, on Sunday afternoon during a fire outbreak. The suspect, known locally as "Area," reportedly became angry and opened fire with a pump-action gun, shooting indiscriminately despite the presence of police and fire officers at the scene

In this message series, “Praisetionary,” we're breaking open the full spectrum of worship language. Think of it as upgrading from a single wrench to a whole toolbox. Because when it comes to praising God, the more ways we know how to express it, the richer and more authentic our praise becomes.

What's the point of PepsiCo's new sub-line of prebiotic colas? Is it addressing genuine consumer demand for functional ingredients, or just riding the wellness wave? The hosts once again weigh in. They also highlight emerging shot brands gaining traction and take a closer look at how the viral “WaterTok” phenomenon may have influenced Keurig Dr Pepper's acquisition of Dyla Brands. Show notes: 0:25: Take Two. Fun > Function. We Gotta Have More Ginger. Sturring The Pot. Thin Or Thick? Mike Takes A Hit. – The team kicks things off with behind-the-scenes banter, including a powdered drink spill mishap and Ray's failed frother. The hosts dive into PepsiCo's introduction of a prebiotic cola and debate its real consumer appeal, questioning whether health claims like “prebiotics” are more about marketing than meaningful function. They also discuss the rise of functional shot brands like GNGR Labs and Canada-based Slapp, and highlight Keurig Dr Pepper's acquisition of Dyla Brands, the maker of Stur drink mixes. Ray previews upcoming Taste Radio meetups in Chicago, San Diego, San Francisco, and London., before John samples a new flavor of Xochitl tortilla chips. Mike is tempted to try a cannabis beverage  and everyone celebrates UK-based soda brand Something & Nothing, praising its minimal, flavorful approach and expanding U.S. footprint. Brands in this episode: Slapp, Mio, Chomps, Xochitl, Cholula, Doritos, Hoste Cocktails, Something & Nothing, Tip Top Cocktails, Caulitos, Ritz, Triscuits, Tempter's, Roar, Plift, Forto, Stur, Valley Isle Kombucha

Was für ein Tag! Graal-Müritz feiert 100 Jahre Eisenbahn-Anbindung – und Maike? Mischt sich gut gelaunt ins Getümmel! Eigentlich ist die Podcasterin diesmal ohne Kompagnon unterwegs. Kaum jedoch verlässt die RB12 Rövershagen Richtung Ostseeheilbad, erklingt die vertraute „Stimme der Bahn“ … ganz in live! „Ingo, was machst Du denn hier?“ Die Wiedersehensfreude ist groß! Und die Fahrgäste? Federhüte, Fracks, Fransenkleider: so stilvoll wie in den 20ern, als die Ostsee zum Laufsteg wurde. Am Bahnhof angekommen, kündigt sich die nächste Zeitreise an: „Ich glaub, da vorne tanzt Fred Astaire!“, denkt Maike noch … und schwingt Minuten später selbst das Swingbein, mitten auf dem Bahnsteig! Hört, wie die MV-Abenteurerin ein majestätisches Déja-vu erlebt, Kästner am Strand begegnet und wen sie in den Ostseefluten trifft.Links zu den Partnern:www.graal-mueritz.dewww.graal-mueritz.de/heimatmuseum-graal-mueritzwww.swing-connection-rostock.de

Susanna har retad patriotiska svenskar genom att tycka bättre om franska tomater. Är Brigitte Macron man? Tokpoddaren Candace Owens blir stämd för ärekränkning för att ha påstått det. En ny utställning på gång om Elizabeth II:s kläder - men TT missar poängen. Drottningen klädde sig för att synas på långt håll, läs Douglas Hurds lilla bok om henne. DN gör artikel på artikel om longevityrörelsen, men ingen ställer den intressanta frågan: varför är det bara tråkiga människor som vill leva för evigt? Ännu en dragshow på gång - nu i regi av Svenska kyrkan. Finns det någon organisation som är mer ängslig att ligga precis rätt i tiden? Läs Susannas intervju i Fokus med katolske kardinalen Anders Arborelius istället. Fransmän är artiga men tyskar är som svenskar. Vi behöver uppvärdera praktisk kunskap, skriver Christoffer Järkeborn i SvD. Vi håller med och uppmanar till läsning av David Goodhart. Kan köpas på hakeliuspopova.com. Johan lyssnade på Anders Eriksson som startade Rosa bussarna och fascineras över att ingen påpekar hur oansvarig och omdömeslös han verkar ha varit. Filmtips: Adams rib, Adams revben, med Spencer Tracy och den underbara Katharine Hepburn finns nu på SVT Play. Psykologfrågan: nej, du behöver inte laga all mat till dina gäster i sommar, men se till att bjuda in en bra bartender. Donald Trump slår rakt mot amerikanska bönder när han får Coca Cola att slopa majssirapen. Susanna vill bo på Ritz i Paris, men vi behöver pantsätta huset först. Och tänk mer på Shakespeare.

Leipzig Triathlon und der Müritz Triathlon stehen vor der Tür – höchste Zeit, die Form zu checken! Wie läuft das Training aktuell? Wo stehen die Jungs mental und körperlich? Und was nehmen sie sich für die anstehenden Rennen vor? Außerdem: Warum neigen Altersklassen-Athleten manchmal dazu, im Training zu übertreiben? Wo liegt die Grenze zwischen Disziplin und Selbstüberforderung? Und was treibt uns eigentlich zu den richtig harten Sessions – ist es pure Motivation, Gruppendruck oder das gute alte Ego? Ein ehrlicher Blick hinter die Kulissen des Age-Group-Trainings – mit Erfahrungen, Meinungen und einem Augenzwinkern. #AlohaKalle #TriathlonPodcast #LeipzigTriathlon #MüritzTriathlon #AgeGrouper #TrainHardRaceHappy #MotivationOderWahnsinn **Steady:** http://steadyhq.com/aloha-kalle **ALOHA KALLE Strava-Club:** https://www.strava.com/clubs/aloha-kalle **ALOHA KALLE Instagram:** https://www.instagram.com/aloha_kalle/ **Marcus Herbst Instagram** https://www.instagram.com/marcus.herbst/

In June of 1922, the twenty-five-year-old wunderkind F. Scott Fitzgerald published "The Diamond as Big as the Ritz," an incredible story of fabulously wealthy people living a secret life in remote Montana. Later that month, he began composing his most famous work, The Great Gatsby. In this episode, Jacke and Mike read and discuss this early Fitzgerald story. PLUS Jacke kicks off a new series, 25 for 25, which looks at the 25 Greatest Books of All Time, with a discussion of #25, The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! Acceso anticipado para Fans - Esta semana sacamos del Congelador una película que puede estar muy olvidada, un gran riesgo a finales de los 80 y una de las apuestas más fuertes de la Disney en aquel momento. Tras el éxito de Batman, la empresa del ratón buscó su propia Batmanía con un personaje que tenía cierto calado entre la cultura estadounidense, especialmente de los años 30 a los 70: Dick Tracy. El detective creado por Chester Gould y que se popularizó en las tiras de los periódicos, fue llevado a la gran pantalla gracias al proyecto y empecinamiento personal de Warren Beatty. Una producción larga, cara y con muchas curiosidades. Una película no exenta también de excentricidades pero con un algo muy especial que puede ser duramente criticado o amado casi a partes iguales. Pero sobre todo, con un reparto de campanillas donde casi nadie está reconocible. Salva Vargas os trae un programa donde la femme fatale de Madonna ambienta este local Ritz desde el que retransmite por onda corta. Carga la Thompson y disponte a dar caza a los mayores hampones, ponte la gabardina y el sombrero amarillo, y sal a perseguir el crimen con nosotros.

In Episode 128 of the Award Travel 101 podcast, Angie Sparks and Joseph Petrovic discuss the latest promotions, program changes, and their evolving card strategies. They highlight a popular 50% DoorDash promo that pairs well with Chase credits, and cover news such as Choice Privileges' status match through 2026, Aeroplan's points expiration returning this November, and the ability to book Porter Airlines with Alaska miles. Angie also mentions rumors of a Ritz-Carlton card fee hike and credits that could hurt its value, while encouraging listeners to stay on top of transfer bonuses and promotions through AwardWallet. Both hosts share updates on their personal card bonuses, travel bookings, and recent successes like scoring premium cabin flights and using hotel points and vouchers effectively.The main topic focuses on re-evaluating premium credit cards in light of rising annual fees, rumored program changes, and shifting value propositions. Angie is considering consolidating premium cards, dropping her Ritz in favor of a Brilliant while keeping two Aspires as long as uncapped free night certificates remain. Joe plans to cut several premium cards, keeping co-branded ones that still deliver value. Both agree that the Chase Sapphire Reserve's refresh is good for year one but likely not long-term, and that card and program strategies need constant reassessment to adapt to the evolving landscape. They also touch on elite status strategies—Angie leaning more toward AA over WN, Joe maintaining Hyatt and AA Executive Platinum—and warn listeners about the time and effort required to extract full value from these “coupon books.” Angie closes with a tip about politely requesting late fee waivers when travel disrupts payments, reminding everyone to stay proactive and kind in managing accounts.Links to Topics DiscussedChoice Privileges Status MatchAir Canada Aeroplan Mileage Expiration Policy UpdateAlaska Airlines no able to be redeemed for Porter AirlinesWhere to Find Us The Free 110k+ member Award Travel 101 Community.

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.

Snack food maker Mondelez International is suing the Aldi supermarket chain, alleging the packaging for Aldi's store-brand cookies and crackers "blatantly copies" Mondelez products like Chips Ahoy, Wheat Thins and Oreos. In a federal lawsuit filed in Illinois, Chicago-based Mondelez said Aldi's packaging was "likely to deceive and confuse customers" and threatened to irreparably harm Mondelez and its brands. The company is seeking monetary damages and a court order that would stop Aldi from selling products that infringe on its trademarks. Aldi didn't respond to messages seeking comment. The U.S. branch of Aldi, which is based in Batavia, Illinois, was named in the lawsuit. In the lawsuit, Mondelez displayed side-by-side photos of multiple products. Aldi's Thin Wheat crackers, for example, come in a gold box very similar to Mondelez's Wheat Thins. Aldi's chocolate sandwich cookies and Oreos both have blue packaging. The supermarket's Golden Round crackers and Mondelez's Ritz crackers are packaged in red boxes. Aldi, which was founded in Germany, keeps prices low by primarily selling products under its own labels. It's one of the fastest-growing grocery chains in the U.S., with more than 2,500 stores in 39 states. The company announced that its current chief operating officer, Atty McGrath, would become Aldi's U.S. CEO on September 1. The chain has faced lawsuits over its packaging before. Last year, an Australian court found that Aldi infringed on the copyright of Baby Bellies snack puffs for young children. In that case, Aldi's packaging featured a cartoon owl and similar colors to the name-brand packaging. Earlier this year, a U.K. appeals court ruled in favor of Thatchers, a cider company, which sued Aldi over design similarities in the packaging of its lemon cider. Mondelez said in its lawsuit that the company had contacted Aldi on numerous occasions about "confusingly similar packaging." Mondelez said Aldi discontinued or changed the packaging on some items but continued to sell others. The lawsuit also alleges that Aldi infringed on Mondelez's trade dress rights for the packaging of Nutter Butter and Nilla Wafers cookies, and its Premium cracker brand.

The post June 26, 2025: Pride Month: Biographer David Leavitt & Playwright Terrence McNally appeared first on KPFA.

In honor of Pride Month, we hear a 2004 interview with the late Terrence McNally, four time Tony Award winner, who frequently focused on the gay experience in his work. This podcast, unedited from its original posting, was first heard on April1, 2020. Terrence McNally, who died of complications from COVID on March 24, 2020  at the age of 81, was a giant of the American theatre. He received tony awards for his plays Love Valour Compassion and Master Class, and for best book for a musical for Kiss of the Spider Woman and Ragtime. His plays, musicals and operas have been performed around the world. Among his other plays were Lisbon Traviata, Lips Together Teeth Apart, The Ritz, and Frankie and Johnnie in the Claire de Lune. His plays, rich with humor and deft characterization, also were political in nature, and he never shied away and he was always willing to take a stand especially in the area of gay rights and the necessity for community. Richard Wolinsky spoke with Terrence McNally on March 18, 2004 in the offices of New Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco, which was then running the musical, A Man of No Importance, for which he had written the book. The music and lyrics were by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, who he had previously collaborated with on Ragtime. He was in San Francisco as New Conservatory's playwright in residence that spring, working on a play that would eventually become Some Men, a look at gay mens lives over the course of several decades. Terrence McNally's play Some Men played off Broadway in 2007 and would return to its theatre of origin, New Conservatory in San Francisco, in 2009. Over the fifteen years after the interview, he would write several plays that reached Broadway, including It's Only a Play and Mothers and Sons, along with three musicals, the last being Anastasia, based on the animated film, which ran on Broadway for two years, closing in spring, 2019 after 808 performances.     The post Pride Month: Terrence McNally (1938-2020), Titan of the American Theatre appeared first on KPFA.

"Food need not be extravagant, complicated, or mysterious to be good. Quite the contrary." —Patricia Wells in her Introduction to Robert Olney's Simple French Food cookbook Whether you love cooking, loathe cooking or fall anywhere in between, we all need to eat. And if we eat well - a marriage of nutritive and delicious - we give ourself a very good shot at living a long and wonderful life. But we aren't born knowing how to cook. We have to choose to learn it, and depending upon our experience with food and the approach others took in how meals came together, we may have a whole host of beliefs about what constitutes good food, how to make it or why or why not we want to learn how to cook due to cultural expectations and pressures. Similar to living a life of contentment, we cannot just go pull the skills of cooking off the shelf, but instead, we do have to invest some time, effort and initially some money (for the tools), but the money need not be much, and the time need not be terribly lengthy if we have the right teachers and ingredients. Enter the French approach to cooking. The French have long been known for their prowess in the kitchen and with good reason. Auguste Escoffier began cooking at age 13 (1846-1935), and is known for both popularizing and modernizing traditional French cooking methods. You may recognize his name as it is often associated with The Ritz or with the five mother sauces. Rest assured, you do not need to know how to make these traditional French sauces to utilize the skills of the French approach to cooking. You may choose to learn all of them as you begin to find more enjoyment and reward with the basics that will be introduced to you today and further taught in TSLL's Introduction to French Cooking course for everyday deliciousness, but don't be intimated by the fanciness that often is paired with French food. Yes, it is fancy and beautiful and thoughtfully presented, but it is the creation that we are going to talk about today, and for everyday life, that is all you need to know. So let's get started!   ~Explore the detailed Show Notes on The Simply Luxurious Llife blog - https://thesimplyluxuriouslife.com/podcast406 

Parigi, 30 agosto 1997 – Diana Spencer, ex principessa di Galles, arriva nella capitale francese insieme al suo nuovo compagno Dodi Al-Fayed. Hanno trascorso l'estate tra yacht e hotel di lusso, inseguiti dai paparazzi e al centro di indiscrezioni crescenti. Quella sera, dopo una cena all'hotel Ritz, lasciano l'albergo a bordo di una Mercedes nera per sfuggire ai fotografi, ma non arriveranno mai a destinazione… L'auto si schianta nel tunnel del Pont de l'Alma, uccidendo Dodi e il conducente sul colpo, mentre Diana sarebbe morta poche ore dopo in ospedale. Le inchieste ufficiali parleranno di tragico incidente, ma le circostanze lasceranno spazio a ipotesi inquietanti: negligenze nei soccorsi, dinamiche anomale, e accuse mai del tutto chiarite che chiamano in causa persino i servizi segreti e la famiglia reale. Ma cosa accadde davvero quella notte a Parigi? E perché, a più di 20 anni di distanza, sono ancora tanti i dubbi che resistono alla verità ufficiale? Proviamo a scoprirlo insieme a Carlotta Toschi: avvocato penalista, detentrice di un master in diritto di famiglia, ma soprattutto podcaster e autrice della serie "Dark Diaries". Iscriviti al gruppo Telegram per interagire con noi e per non perderti nessuna delle novità in anteprima e degli approfondimenti sulle puntate: https://t.me/LucePodcast Se vuoi ascoltarci senza filtri e sostenere il nostro lavoro, da oggi è possibile abbonarsi al nostro canale Patreon e accedere a contenuti bonus esclusivi tramite questo link: patreon.com/LucePodcast

Chef pâtissier du Ritz Paris depuis 2015, François Perret donne le la pour tout ce qui concerne le sucré au sein du palace de la place Vendôme. Sur place, il produit un travail, mêlant habilement technique et ludique, et met sa rigueur toute pâtissière au service d'une gourmandise assumée, presque enfantine, toujours de bon goût. Madeleines XL, biscuits réinventés, entremets trompe-l'oeil ou viennoiseries élégantes... en véritable directeur artistique du sucre, le chef joue avec les formats et les textures et surprend, épate, amuse et régale surtout. En dix ans, il a définitivement sucré le Ritz, comme il aime à le dire, qui le lui rend bien avec l'ouverture en ce début juin 2025 d'une deuxième boutique dédiée à ses délices, sur la Rive Gauche parisienne… Avec François, nous avons parlé de narration, d'architecture et de praliné.Bonne écoute !Où goûter ce qu'il a dans la poêle ?Ritz Paris & Ritz Paris Le Comptoir38 rue Cambon75001 ParisRitz Paris Le Comptoir Sèvres45 Rue de Sèvres75006 ParisOù le suivre ?@francoisperret Hébergé par Acast.

In the Fifteenth episode There Is No Planet Earth Stories, I sit down with legendary DJ, producer, and remixer Justin Strauss for a wide-ranging conversation about his remarkable journey through music and nightlife culture.We explore Justin's early music experiences—from seeing The Beatles live to attending iconic shows at Electric Circus. He shares stories from his time as the frontman of the glam-punk band Milk n' Cookies, and his transition into DJing, including his first gig and influential residency at the legendary Mudd Club.Justin also reflects on his pivotal roles as resident DJ at iconic 80's NYC venues like Area, and The Ritz. Additionally,  our conversation explores the origins and evolution of his prolific remix and production career, which continues to inspire across generations.“Few DJs could adequately represent the last three decades of New York nightclub history - no less do so with such iconic credentials as Justin Strauss. Since he was 17, when his first band was signed to Island Records, Justin has had a career that reads like a Who's-Who of the music scene, spinning at nearly every dance club that you'd ever want to go to. Starting as DJ at New York's legendary Mudd Club, he spun his way through The Ritz, Limelight, Area, Tunnel, M.K., Life, Centro Fly and more, pioneering his own distinctive sound, and becoming one of the most sought-after remixers and producers not just in New York, but in the world. He has worked with the gamut of artists - Depeche Mode, Hot Chip, Sergio Mendez, Tina Turner, Jimmy Cliff, B-52s, Luther Vandross, 808 State, Malcolm McClaren, Skinny Puppy, Goldfrapp, LCD Soundsystem to name a few and on over 300 records!  Much of the new dance crowd that goes to hear Justin DJ today, doesn't necessarily know his history; they simply love his spinning because he always keeps them dancing and surprised, seamlessly mixing between choice classics, delectable rarities and innovative beats. For Justin, no genre or style is off-limits – he can and will mix anything, so long as he can keep the crowd enthralled. His self-proclaimed mission is “connecting the dots” between what might otherwise seem disparate musical periods and styles, while introducing exciting new sounds. He does so with infectious passion, subverting preconceptions about what's old and new, and inspiring young DJs with his masterful skill and ever-youthful spirit. But Justin Strauss doesn't stop there. As half of the production duos, Whatever/Whatever and A/JUS/TED, he continued to produce and mix records, working on remixes for the likes of Hot Chip, William Onyeabor,LCD Soundsystem, Blood Orange, Holy Ghost!, Franz Ferdinand, Beyonce. Working on new projects Extra Credit with Joe Goddard of Hot Chip & Marcus Marr, and with Max Pask under their Each Other moniker, whose debut E.P.'s were mixed by Soulwax and released on their Deewee label, with new releases coming soon. Touring the world Dj'ing at Panorama Bar in Berlin, Robert Johnson in Frankfurt, Zunkunft in Zurich to name a few.  In fact, he doesn't stop at all.”Support the show
