Post Face, émission littéraire présentée par Caroline Gutman. Elle reçoit Louis Henri de la Rochefoucauld pour son roman « Les petits farceurs » chez Laffont. À propos du livre : « Les petits farceurs » paru aux éditions Laffont " La vie, c'est dommage, ne peut pas toujours être une comédie. " - Rentrée littéraire 2023 - Lorsque Paul le provincial rencontre Henri le Parisien, c'est l'amitié immédiate. Ils sont étudiants et s'imaginent des destins flamboyants. Devenu un journaliste dilettante, Henri découvre les arrière-cuisines de la presse et de l'édition. Paul publie un premier roman ambitieux – que personne ne lit. Malgré cet échec, un éditeur rompu à tous les coups lui propose d'écrire dans l'ombre les best-sellers des autres. Mais peut-on prêter sa plume sans vendre son âme ? Dans un Paris dont la cruauté pousse à la mélancolie ou au détachement, même l'amitié est mise à l'épreuve ; tout autant que l'amour, dernier carrefour des illusions. Paul et Henri s'étaient rêvés grands écrivains, ils ne seront jamais que de petits farceurs... Biographie de l'auteur Louis-Henri de La Rochefoucauld est journaliste et écrivain. Il a publié Mémoires d'un avare, La Prophéthie de John Lennon, Le Club des vieux Garçons, La Révolution française et Châteaux de sable.

Francois de la Rochefoucauld gehört zu den Moralisten und unbestritten zu den Meistern des Aphorismus.Mit einem guten Wort (Bonmot) oder einer Pointe sagt der erbitterte Gegner der absoluten Monarchie unter Mazarin oft mehr als andere in ganzen Büchern. Die geistige Verwandtschaft seiner Maxime in "Sentences et maximes morales" zu Pascalis "Pensées"(Gedanken) ist eivdent.

O Consulado-Geral do Brasil em Paris teve de alugar um novo espaço para a realização dos dois turnos da eleição presidencial brasileira. O motivo é que o número de eleitores inscritos mais que dobrou em relação à última votação. "Passamos de 11.047 eleitores inscritos em 2018 para 22.629 em 2022, um aumento de mais de 100%", comemora o cônsul-geral do Brasil em Paris, Fábio Marzano. Ele atribui esse crescimento a um maior interesse do eleitor em participar do processo democrático. Por Paloma Varón, da RFI "Com este aumento significativo do número de eleitores cadastrados, tivemos que mudar o local de votação. Neste ano, a eleição vai ser no Espace La Rochefoucauld, no 9º distrito de Paris", continua o cônsul-geral, frisando a importância de que os eleitores baixem o aplicativo do E-título e também levem um documento com fotografia. "Como a maioria dos eleitores no exterior não cadastrou a biometria, vai ser preciso levar também um documento com foto. Pode ser o RG, o passaporte, mesmo vencido, a carteira de motorista... mas vai precisar de uma identificação do eleitor", disse o responsável pela votação em Paris, o cônsul-geral adjunto Sérgio Ricoy Pena, acrescentando que, em último caso, até um documento francês pode ser aceito. Eleitor deve baixar E-título antes do dia 2 e levar documento com foto Segundo as autoridades consulares, o mais importante é que os eleitores baixem o E-título antes de 2 de outubro. O aplicativo também serve para justificar a ausência no dia da eleição, num prazo de até 60 dias após cada turno. "O ideal é baixar o mais rápido possível, pois no dia da eleição ele não estará disponível", avisa Ricoy Pena. "Uma opção para quem não conseguir baixar o aplicativo é olhar a seção de votação no site do TSE", completa.  Para acessar os dados, basta fazer uma busca por "nome e local de votação TSE" ou "certidão de quitação eleitoral". Os dados serão visualizados assim que o eleitor completar os campos com seu nome completo, a data de nascimento e o nome da mãe. Essa busca também é válida para eleitores que tenham transferido o título para Paris recentemente ou que tenham solicitado o documento pela primeira vez. Além do novo endereço, que é importante ser lembrado – 11 rue Catherine de la Rochefoucauld, 75009, Paris –, o cônsul-geral chama a atenção para o horário que deve ser respeitado: das 8h às 17h locais. "Somente quem já estiver dentro do espaço, na fila da sua seção eleitoral e em posse de uma senha, poderá votar um pouco depois das 17h", acrescenta Marzano. As pessoas que às 17h estiverem na fila na rua não poderão votar. Eleitores vêm de toda a França Como nos anos anteriores, Paris é o único local de votação em toda a França, o que obrigará muitos eleitores a percorrerem centenas de quilômetros e contarem com o que chamam de "hospedagem solidária". É o caso da cozinheira Kele Ransom, que mora em Pau, nos Pirineus, a 792 km de Paris. "Essas eleições vão ser uma aventura, eu vou para uma cidade vizinha, que se chama Lourdes, e de lá vou pegar um trem noturno para chegar no dia seguinte a Paris. Chegando em Paris, eu vou ficar na casa de uma amiga, para não gastar mais do que já vou gastar com toda esta viagem. Serão mais de 15 horas de viagem", conta.  "Para mim, essas eleições são muito importantes, é uma emoção muito grande fazer todo este trajeto para votar, porque a gente precisa mudar a situação do país. Voltar ao Brasil me entristece, por ver a dificuldade que as pessoas estão passando. O meu voto não é secreto: eu vou fazer este trajeto todo com a toalha do meu candidato nas costas, porque vou tentar, com todas as minhas forças, tirar o atual presidente do poder", afirma.  Brasileiras organizam hospedagem solidária O grupo Brasileiras de Paris, no Facebook, é um dos que organiza as ofertas e demandas de hospedagem solidária. Foi assim que a professora de francês brasiliense, Isabella Vanini, que mora em Cahors (no sul), a 560 km da capital, conseguiu a sua. "O grupo organizou um esquema de oferta e procura de hospedagem especial para as eleições. A gente conseguiu fazer isso para que todas as mulheres do grupo possam votar neste momento tão importante", relata. Desde janeiro, ela previu suas folgas no próximo fim de semana e comprou as passagens há alguns meses. "É a segunda vez que eu vou votar na vida, porque em Brasília a gente não tem eleições municipais. Eu preciso participar deste momento democrático", completa Isabella, que tem 25 anos.  "Momento crítico para a democracia brasileira" As pernambucanas Wedja Martins e sua companheira Clara Brainer vêm de Orléans (centro), a 132 km da capital francesa, para votar em 2 de outubro. Elas deixaram o Brasil em setembro de 2018, "por conta do impacto do bolsonarismo" em suas vidas. "Precisamos votar contra a violência, a intolerância, o facismo e o retrocesso para que a gente volte a viver em paz no nosso país", afirma Wedja.  A psicóloga Luana Meyer, que mora em Bordeaux (sudoeste), a 578 km de Paris, vem de trem. "Votar é muito importante para mim, porque mesmo se eu não moro mais no Brasil, quero exercer meu direito de cidadã, principalmente neste momento tão crítico", diz ela, que também vai utilizar hospedagem solidária.  O realizador audiovisual Nico Silva, de 24 anos, vem de Marselha (sul), e também vai percorrer cerca de 800 quilômetros para votar. "Eu vou fazer a viagem de trem, que é o meio de transporte mais simples. Acho que muitos, como eu, estão com muita vontade de votar nestas eleições. Não é tão fácil ir a Paris, não é todo mundo que tem condições de ir votar, porque custa caro, é preciso comprar bilhetes de ida e volta, e no fim de semana os valores são ainda maiores", diz ele, que vai se hospedar na casa de amigos na capital francesa.  Primeiro voto depois de 19 anos na França A professora carioca Patricia Enderlé mora em Saint-Martin-de-Crau, a 611 km de Paris. Ela vem de trem e vai dividir uma hospedagem com mais seis pessoas. "Vai ser corrido, vai custar energia, vai custar dinheiro, mas não tem como ser diferente. Em 19 anos que moro na França é a primeira vez que voto aqui; desta vez fiz questão de transferir meu título", conta ela, acrescentando que "não podia deixar de dar a minha contribuição para fechar esse ciclo vergonhoso".  A jurista paulista Natasha D. está há três anos na França e também vai votar pela primeira vez em Paris. Ela vem de Montpellier, a 748 km da capital. "Vou passar o fim de semana na estrada. As passagens estão caras pra dedéu, mas, como eu digo para mim mesma, é o preço da democracia". Ela também conseguiu sua hospedagem no grupo de mulheres brasileiras no Facebook. "É um esquema ideológico que me cai bem, porque, sinceramente, eu também não gostaria de ser acolhida por uma pessoa que vota em outro candidato", explica.  Apesar do alto preço das passagens no final de semana, a chef de cozinha Ana Moura, que mora em Lannion (noroeste), na Bretanha, também está disposta a fazer este esforço. Nascida em Cuiabá e descendente do povo indígena Bororo, no Mato Grosso, Ana disse que vai votar de cocar para homenagear os seus antepassados. "Vou de ônibus, foi a forma mais barata que encontrei. Vou me hospedar na casa de um amigo francês que luta pelas mesmas causas que eu. Ele me ofereceu seu apartamento gratuitamente pelo fim de semana e vou com outras duas pessoas. Votar para mim é muito importante, porque é a única forma de defender o meu país e o meu povo. E desta vez precisamos recuperar a nossa bandeira", diz Ana, que mora a 552 km de Paris e vota em todas as eleições desde que chegou à França, em 2008.  São 29 urnas e 58 seções eleitorais em Paris As urnas eletrônicas já chegaram à capital francesa, enviadas de Brasília, via mala diplomática, disseram as autoridades consulares. "São 29 urnas já inseminadas, isto é, elas contêm os nomes de todos os eleitores aptos a votar nelas", explica Fábio Marzano.  Sérgio Ricoy acrescenta que cada uma das urnas servirá para eleitores de duas seções. "Como são menos votantes no exterior, usamos a mesma urna para duas diferentes seções eleitorais. Cada urna pode receber 800 votos, ou seja, 400 de cada seção", sublinha, relembrando a importância de conhecer a seção antes de 2 de outubro. Cada seção contará também com um caderno de assinaturas, com a lista completa de eleitores aptos a votar.  "Quando os eleitores que moram na França chegarem ao Espace La Rochefoucauld, verão um painel indicando os números das salas por seção, como acontece no Brasil. Assim já podem se dirigir para as salas correspondentes", acrescenta Ricoy.  O cônsul-geral Fábio Marzano diz que a abstenção na França costuma ficar em torno de 50%, mas ela deve ser um pouco menor neste pleito. "Em 2018, apenas 45% dos inscritos compareceram, mas neste ano esperamos um comparecimento maior", afirma.  Marzano e Ricoy recordam que o voto é obrigatório no Brasil.

Hemos hecho una conversación entre tres ciudades -Marsella, Cali y Londres- con dos profesores universitarios; ambos autores y críticos literarios para platicar sobre el aforismo y sus primas hermanas: la máxima, la sentencia, la metáfora y hasta el escolio. Nos referimos frecuentemente a uno de los grandes aforistas en castellano de las últimas décadas, el colombiano Nicolás Gómez Dávila quien merece ser leído con más asiduidad. No faltaron los nombres más reconocids como Cioran, Lichtenberg, Rochefoucauld, Pascal o Nietzche, así como también los más allegados a nosotros: Quevedo, Vargas Vila, Ribeyro o Augusto Monterroso. Disertamos sobre el aforismo en la era del Twitter, su naturaleza dialéctica, sus limitaciones y ventajas, así como también su uso en diferentes géneros literarios y en la filosofía. Con Jaír Villano, Álvaro Bautista Cabrera y Juan Toledo.   Los aforismos de Jair Villano en la Revista Perro Negro y un artículo sobre el libro de aforismos de Álvaro Bautista en el Magazín Dominical de El Espectador.  Por último, Occurencias y recurrencias: poemas, antiepigramas y aforismos de Juan Toledo

The United Nations Human Rights Council has come under criticism for including as members many states whose human rights record is controversial, at best. In this week's episode of Horns of a Dilemma, Dr. Rana Inboden discusses her new book, China and the International Human Rights Regime, which details (among other things) how one of those states, China, used its position on the council during the institution building phase to try to undercut the strength and effectiveness of the council's tools. While Inboden shows that China was at least partly successful in doing so, the effort that China put in to trying not to appear to be opposed to human rights may be telling. Despite criticism that the U.N. human rights regime is toothless, it is still able to shape the behavior of a powerful state--even if only by shaping their desire not to be seen as human rights violators. Or, as the French author Francois de la Rochefoucauld said, "Hypocrisy is the tribute that vice pays to virtue."

Les Amazones, ce sont ces guerrières scythes considérées comme égales aux hommes durant l'Antiquité. Mais le 18e siècle a aussi ses amazones: des femmes issues de l'aristocratie, combattant auprès de François de Charette pendant la guerre de Vendée, en pleine Révolution française. Alors que républicains “bleus” et royalistes “blancs” s'opposent violemment, certaines Amazones font ainsi entrer leur nom dans l'Histoire. De la Marquise de la Rochejaquelein à Madame de la Rochefoucauld, Clémentine Portier-Kaltenbach vous présente de valeureuses guerrières de l'Ouest.

What you'll learn in this episode: Why much of Cynthia's jewelry has an old-world, Renaissance feel Cynthia's advice for aspiring jewelry designers How Cynthia designs her pieces around her customers' style Why creativity is the driving force behind change How understanding jewelry history can help designers find new forms of expression About Cynthia Bach Cynthia Bach has been a jewelry designer for more than four decades. After studying art in Munich, Germany, Cynthia received her BFA degree in art and jewelry making from McMurry University in Abilene, Texas, where she met and apprenticed bench jewelry making with master jeweler Jim Matthews. In 1989 Jim and Cynthia were recruited by Van Cleef & Arpels in Beverly Hills to run design and fabrication of the jewelry department. In 1991 Cynthia launched her own collection with Neiman Marcus nationwide.  She has been the recipient of numerous awards from the jewelry industry including the coveted International Platinum Guild Award, the Spectrum Award, and the Couture Award. Her designs have been recognized and awarded by the American Gem Trade Association. She is internationally known and respected and in 2014 was invited to Idar-Oberstein, Germany to judge the New Designer Contest. In 2015 her work was part of the international traveling exhibition “The Nature of Diamonds” organized by the American Museum of Natural History and sponsored by DeBeers. An important piece of her work resides in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. In 2019 Cynthia's jewelry was featured in Juliet de la Rochefoucauld's “Women Jewellery Designers”, a magnum opus book of women jewelry designers throughout history.

That enthusiasm is what helped her land an apprenticeship with master jeweler (and later, her husband) Jim Matthews, scored her a 25-year partnership with Nieman Marcus, and continues to fuel her desire to create timeless yet innovative designs today. She joined the Jewelry Journey Podcast to talk about the old-world techniques that inspire her designs; her experience working with Van Cleef & Arpels, Neiman Marcus, and red-carpet stylists; and her advice for budding jewelry designers. Read the episode transcript here.  Sharon: That's interesting. I'm thinking about a few things. First of all, that Fabergé and Schlumberger had an eye, whether it was for a shape or they were just extremely creative. What do you feel you have an eye for? Cynthia: I have an eye for shapes. My jewelry designing is classical and lyrical. I'm not doing post-modern shapes like the wearable art exhibit we saw. I think of my designs as more refined. I love to design jewelry for women. When I'm designing for them, I see what their style is and I want to design around their style, which is not necessarily the normal thing to do. When I design a piece of jewelry, I usually design something I want to wear. Having worked with Nieman Marcus for 25 years, after starting my collection with them, there was always fashion. Every season, I would follow the fashions that so that even though my designs are very classical, they would also be very now. What are the girls wearing now? What are the trends now? But I still wanted it to be timeless and able to be worn a hundred years from today.  Sharon: Have you ever found yourself altering your designs or pieces because you've sketched something out and you say, “Oh, that's too small or too large for what people want today. That's not what people want”?  Cynthia: I kind of design what I want to design, but because I've worked so hands-on doing trunk shows across the country and working with women, I know everyone has a different size earlobe and a different shape face. I will take a design and I'll make a smaller version and a medium and a bigger to go with the woman's style. Not every woman can wear a big earring. In that sense, I just take my design and make it more adaptable for different people. I usually design what I want to design because I figure if I want to wear it, other women want to wear it, too. Sharon: It sounds like that's been successful for you for decades. You said that you design around a woman's style. I guess what I want to know is if you saw a woman wearing jewelry that's very different from yours. Let's say modernist, angular, large. What do you mean you design around that? Cynthia: To clarify that a little bit more, I would say the last 25 years where I've really been a designer, I've worked with a lot of stylists for red carpet dressing. We would work with clothing designers, like when I did Cate Blanchett in the beautiful Gautier. I made the body jewelry—they're Indian-inspired—and she did the big chain down her back. I remember a lot of beautiful gowns coming in, and even though I would use my jewelry, I always wanted the jewelry to make a statement. To me, it wasn't all about the dress, but also to make a statement for the wearer. So, when I say I like to design around a woman's style, a lot of that came from working with stylists and doing red carpet things. It also comes from working hands-on with women at the Nieman Marcus stores. They would come in and have a dress they were wearing to the ball, and they needed jewelry to go with it. You can't just throw anything on them. It's got to go with the dress; it's got to go with them. I find the way I wear jewelry is I like very big jewelry. I like big rings, big earrings, lots of chains. I layer everything. There are women out there that are much more—they love an exquisite piece of jewelry, but they'll wear one exquisite earring and one necklace.  Sharon: What's wrong with them? Cynthia: You're another person who's very theatrical in your jewelry.  Sharon: I understand what you're saying, but I'm surprised to hear you say that because your jewelry seems very feminine and dainty. I can see how you can stack the rings and everything, but I'm surprised to hear you say you like larger jewelry. That's all. Cynthia: I mean when I'm dressing for myself. This is where I'm making pieces for other people. My collection I'm working on now is a lot of flowers with beautiful fall colors, orange and yellow, sapphires and reds and purples, all these colors together. I will take all those chains and wear like seven of them together, whereas if I were selling them in a store, maybe a woman would buy one chain. Ultimately, we have to make a living, but for me, selling my jewelry is my living. To some extent, you have to keep in mind who your audience is as well. Again, I can't always dictate the way I want them to look. Sharon: I was just thinking how impressive it is that you've been selling to Nieman Marcus for so long. That's a long run, and hopefully it continues for another 20 years. There are so many people who sell for one season and never see it there again. Cynthia: Like I told you, Sharon, I made up my mind at the age of 12 that this is what I wanted to do. My determination came from—it was very difficult being a woman. When I sold my collection to Nieman Marcus in 1991, we were brought out to Beverly Hills with Van Cleef & Arpels. The family-owned business went off to sell their company, so we were basically without a job. That was my window for, “O.K., you have nothing to lose. You're out of a job. If you want to be a jewelry designer, you're going to do it now.” Well, that was on Monday. On Friday, I called Nieman Marcus in Dallas and flew out there.  I had been making a little crown collection, because I had made a crown for a client for an anniversary present back in 1982. It was a design of a Trifari crown pin that he gave to his wife. He said, “I bought this for my bride in 1955, and now I can afford it in emeralds, rubies and diamonds.” It was a little Trifari crown pin, and I made her this little crown and she wore it every day on a chain. I just thought it was the neatest thing. This was in 1982, and I said, “This is what I'm going to do. I'm going to make crowns.” So, I started researching them at the library, all the different heraldic imagery and all the crowns throughout the world that kings and queens wore, and I brought them to everyone, to the masses. I had presented them to Van Cleef & Arpels, and they were like, “We would never do a crown,” but I made them anyway.  After we lost our job at Van Cleef & Arpels, five days later, I flew to Nieman Marcus. I had 13 crown brooches. Some were fantasies; some were actual miniature crowns from Saudi Arabia or Persia, the English crown. I talked to the buyer, who was actually the president of the jewelry department at that time. In 1991, they did not have a developed jewelry department. There were jewelry designers; there were fashion designers, but jewelry was very generic, so they didn't have creatives in jewelry that stood out. I said to them, “You need a stable of jewelry designers like you have in fashion.” The same thing I did with my husband, “I want to make jewelry. Here are my crowns.” I was all enthusiastic about it, and he was like, “I'll give you $6,000,” and I said, “I'll take it.” That launched my career, but it was in 1991 when, like I said, there weren't really any established jewelry designers at the time. I think Nieman's had Jean Mahie and Henry Dunay was there, but that was it. So, they grandfathered me at that time, and it just took off. The 90s and the 2000s was a wonderful time to be in the jewelry business. It was a wonderful time to be in business in anything in 2000, before 2006. So, that is how I got into it. I don't know that I could do something like that in 2021. It's always timing. Sharon: That's true. Do you think you couldn't do that because it's not possible to call Nieman Marcus today and say, “I want an appointment with the buyer”? Cynthia: With 13 pieces? No, I think because the competition now is steep. Women are more independent now. In 1991, it was still hard as a woman to head a company and to be taken seriously as being able to run a company. Even though I worked with my husband, I called the collection Cynthia Bach because it was a time for women when if they did not stick up for themselves and be a little more aggressive and persistent, they would disappear. I guess I'm a feminist, I don't know. But at that time, I had to fight really hard. I worked with a lot of men and good old boys. The jewelry industry was made up of men. It was a whole different time, and Nieman Marcus, at that time, was still family-owned as well. It was small. Now, it's become much bigger, more investors, owners, more corporate, so I don't think you can start with 13 pieces. I think you have to have a pretty big collection to move forward, and a business plan. Sharon: Right, it sounds you started the seeds of— Cynthia: A revolution, a jewelry revolution!  Sharon: Really. Because when you think about Nieman's today, the jewelry department is so well-developed in terms of all the different designers. Cynthia: Yes. Sharon: I was just going to ask you. We both attended a panel at Bonhams on wearable art jewelry. I was asking what attracted you, because your jewelry is so different. Cynthia: I am very much interested in jewelry history, jewelers throughout history, and the whole evolution of jewelry in any form. I love the silver jewelry that came out of Mexico. I love the period of the 30s and 40s. Like I said before, that is when casting was developed, and that is when jewelry was in a more industrial period, the shapes and the forms, the industrial revolution. Jewelry parallels music and history and art and fashion, so all of that interests me, and it doesn't just have to be my type of jewelry. I was very fascinated with the jewelry of the particular artists that I learned about through the Bonhams exhibit, the wearable art, the Crawford Collection. I learned about these artists I really didn't know about, and that was exciting. Sharon: Was there something in particular that called out to you, a designer or something a panelist said? Cynthia: I really loved the work of Art Smith. I think he worked in New York, and it was sculpture. His jewelry was sculpture, body sculpture. There were also some Native American Indian jewelers from the 30s and 40s that did lapidary work, the interesting turquoise with wood and the bracelets that were so colorful and beautiful. Some of the lapidary work they did was very now, like that guy that did the space travel bangle. There was one necklace I just fell in love with, and it's from William Spratling. It was a big necklace with little beads, and I thought to myself, “What a fabulous design! That design would look so good with my filigree beads that I do.” I've always loved bib-style necklaces. A lot of times when I look at jewelry, I'll see my piece of jewelry incorporated in some of the shapes or designs. It's all very visual to me, the bibs. Sharon: Those are fabulous pieces, and a broad spectrum too. Go on. Cynthia: I was just going to say relatively unknown artists. It was so refreshing to have Bonhams bring these out to the public awareness. Sharon: Yes, I hope we see a lot of more of it. It was nice. Cynthia: Me, too.  Sharon: Since you've been designing for so long, what do you think motivates you today that's different than what motivated you decades ago, when you first started? Cynthia: Right now, I'm working with more color. I love colors mixed together. Like I told you, I'm working a lot with flowers. I think because history and fashion play such an important part in my designing, I look at the kids, what they wear now, harkening back to the 1980s. I feel myself very influenced right now by 80s jewelry. I feel like it's also intertwined, like I said, with music and art and fashion and jewelry. They work together. During the Blue Rider period, the abstract expressionism with Kandinsky and Klee, you had music of that time that reflected it.  Creativity is what makes changes in the world, even though we repeat a lot of fashion. Some of what the kids are wearing is very unique. They wear a lot of body jewelry with tattoos and earrings that climb all the way up their ears. That is really new and fresh. Every generation is evolving into a new creative style. I think the depth of a designer is to keep coming out with new designs and to keep being creative. It's paramount and important to me to constantly be coming out with new designs, and I get that influence from what's going on in the world around me. Sharon: You sound very open to seeing new things as opposed to, “Oh my God, look at that person with all those tattoos.” Cynthia: It's basically body art. Yeah, it fascinates me; purple hair, green hair. Sharon: You can be very creative with hair and body art and all that. Cynthia: Absolutely. It's the time of personal style and expression now. Sharon: Do you think it's different now? People think of the 60s as being a time of personal art and expression. Do you think the 70s had less of that or the 80s had less of that? Cynthia: I think every decade, every era has that. Even if you look at the Rococo and Baroque periods in France, where they had their powdered wigs and their beautiful couture, they were out of the box. The music was out of the box, and that's how change happens in the world. Sharon: I like that change happens through creativity. You can look at different ways of saying that. Is it through creativity in tech or is it creativity in fashion? I guess it's everything.  Cynthia: Yeah. Sharon: You mentioned that enjoy studying jewelry history. Do you think it's important for jewelers and jewelry designers to be steeped in that, to know the history of jewelry, to see the trends through the ages? How important do you think that is? Cynthia: I think it helps. It certainly helps me to visually look at a lot of different styles and see what's been around for hundreds of years, but I don't think it's necessary for everyone. Some people are just creative, and they come out with their own unique style. I don't know if you've looked at what Boucheron is doing now with this kind of glasswork. It's like nothing I've ever seen before. It really is wearable art. They're pushing the envelope as to jewelry and wearable art.  A lot of the young designers coming up now are especially working with the fashion houses, and the fashion houses are saying, “Hey, we need to incorporate some important jewelry with our fashion.” It's unique. So, the answer to your question is I don't know if it's important to know jewelry history. I think the most important thing is to be forward and to come up with something creative that is unique and your own. Sharon: What do you when you find your creativity has stalled? If you have writer's block in terms of jewelry, what do you do? Cynthia: In the past, I can say that when someone commissions me to do a piece of a jewelry or I have a new collection I want to come out with and I just don't know what to do, sometimes I just put it in the back of my head and go around my business. It is haunting me in my head, and then all of a sudden, I'll be sitting there and I'll look at a chair or something. I'll see a shape and a light goes off in my head, and that's it; that's the concept. It's almost a subconscious process. This has happened with me time and time again. I'll be sleeping and somehow something will hit me, “This is it.” Sometimes it takes a week or two. I don't think it's taken over once I make my mind up that I need something new over two weeks. It usually goes into my subconscious brain, and I guess my conscious brain is looking for ideas. Sharon: That is the way it works. You're meditating and something comes, or you're in the shower. Exactly, it's when you're not looking. Cynthia, thank you so much for taking the time today to talk with us. This has been really enjoyable and fascinating. It's great to talk with somebody who's been through decades of jewelry design. Cynthia: Does that make me old? Sharon: No, it doesn't. Cynthia: The creative mind is never old. Creativity is always young.  Sharon: Yes, that's definitely it. Thank you so much. Cynthia: Thank you for having me.

Today, our guest is multiple award-winning jewelry designer Cynthia Bach, who has been designing jewelry for 40 years. Her designs are in demand by celebrities and high-end jewelry showcases. She's recognized for jewels that harken back to yesterday with a nod to the Renaissance. She is also included among an extraordinarily talented group of jewelry designers in the beautiful book “Women Jewelry Designers.” We'll hear all about her jewelry journey today. Cynthia, welcome to the program. Cynthia: Thank you, Sharon, for having me today. I'm very excited to be here. Sharon: I'm so glad to have you, and I'm looking forward to hearing about your jewelry journey. Tell us a little about that. Did you play with jewelry when you were young, or were you creative when you were young? Go ahead. Cynthia: Sharon, since I was a little girl, I was very attracted to my mother's jewelry and all the sparkly stones and the colors. I would take her costume jewelry apart and redesign it. I don't know how old I was, very young, maybe six, seven, eight years old, and I always had this fascination with sparkly jewels. I can remember back in the day when W Magazine had the paper magazine that was like a newspaper, probably before a lot of people were born. We're looking at probably the 80s. I remember looking at pictures of Paloma Picasso and Tiffany and Elsa Peretti and thinking, “I want to be a jewelry designer. I love jewelry.” Maybe I was 12, 13. That was in the back of my head. Sharon: So, it was early on. Cynthia: Early on. When I went to college, my grandmother, who was living in New York in a retirement home, wrote me a letter that said, “Cindy, make up your mind what you want to do because you have opportunities that I did not have as a woman.” She was born, I think, in the late 1800s, turn of the century. She said, “Decide what it is you want to do and do it.” I was taking art classes at the university, and I said, “I'm going to be a jewelry designer.”  We didn't have a jewelry department, but I was determined. I went to the sculpture teacher and said, “I want to learn how to make jewelry,” and he said, “I've never taught jewelry, but if you get six students together, we'll form a class.” I recruited six students and we made a class and learned together. We would do casting behind the art building in the sand, like the old, ancient art of sand casting, where we would put our wax in a coffee can and dig a hole in the dirt and then pour. At that time, I worked in brass and copper because silver was like what working in platinum would be to me today. That was the start of a passion for me that I pursued.  Sharon: You went to college in Texas if I recall. Cynthia: Yes. My father was in the military. He married a war bride. He was in World War II, and he met my mother in Berlin during the bombing of Berlin and he brought her back. She was a war bride, but she loved living in Europe, so my father always asked to be stationed in Europe. I spent 13 years growing up in Germany. I did a year of college in Munich, Germany, before I went to Texas to finish my degree. My father was stationed in Texas then. Sharon: How did growing up abroad in Germany influence you as a jewelry designer? Cynthia: My mother really focused on culture more than anything. I don't know why. She wanted us to be very cultured and well-rounded and to experience good food. She would take me to the Stuttgart Ballet, and she'd take me to Berlin and say, “You're going to see the Berlin Opera. It's the best opera in the world.” Living in Germany, we would travel every summer and go to Greece or Italy and go to museums and concerts. In Europe, it's much easier for everyone to enjoy the culture, the opera, the ballets because it's affordable to everyone. For $30, you can go to the opera. You don't have to spend thousands of dollars to become a member. Everyone is more a part of culture there, and of course Europe is so cultured because it's so old. It's hundreds and hundreds of years old, so you have that sense of history and architecture and the castles. It was a very creatively fertile place for me to grow up. I do equate that with a lot of my jewelry designs and my love of art and culture.  Sharon: I can see the influence in your jewelry when you say that, because your jewelry has a lot that appears Renaissance-like, let's say, and it has a granulation. Cynthia: Yes, I think it has a very European look to it. In 1991, when I officially became my own jewelry designer, creating my own vision and designs, it was based on medieval history and Gothic and Renaissance and crowns and all the symbolism I researched at the library. It really did harken back to a lot of what I saw growing up in Europe. Sharon: What is it that still attracts you decades later? You still have that sense in your jewelry, which is so elegant in many ways, in terms of having that European feel. What is it that still attracts you today? Cynthia: I think there are several things. One is that I look at a lot of jewelry books. One of my other passions is jewelry history and all the different designs throughout history: the 30s and 40s that were so industrial, when casting was invented back in the 40s, and the 50s, where jewelry could be made en masse, as opposed to when it was all hand-fabricated by the French and the Italians and the Russians. That was a turning point in jewelry.  What was the question? You were asking why it is still European. There are two reasons. One is I study art jewelry history. Art history, jewelry history, they're all related. The other is my husband who is my partner, Jim Matthews, who I met during college because I needed someone to help me set a stone. It was an amethyst, and I didn't have the equipment in college. I heard about this amazing jeweler downtown in Abilene, Texas. I went from Munich, Germany, to Abilene to Beverly Hills.  Anyway, he is just a genius. He started whittling wood when he was five years old. He ended up owning this jewelry store, and he would hand-carve the waxes making his own tools, which is very old-school and a dying art. I think it's the combination of my love of jewelry history and my influences of being in Europe, and then his old-school jewelry carving and filigree and this amazing, intricate carving he could do. To me, it's like Castellani or some of the Italian handwork that was done in the 18th century. I think it's the combination of that that gives it that old-world Renaissance feeling. Sharon: Can you tell us about the division of labor you have now? You work together, so how does that work? Do you design and then he takes the designs? Cynthia: Yes, we have been working together since I was in college, so for over 40 years we've worked together. We were brought out here with Van Cleef & Arpels. He ran the design and fabrication of Van Cleef in Beverly Hills. He had 13 jewelers there on Rodeo Drive when it was still family owned. We were hired by Phillipe Arpels, and they brought us out here from Abilene, Texas, which to me was like, “Wow, we've been discovered. Now, we get to make jewelry for kings and queens in Hollywood.”  We've worked together so long that we kind of read each other's minds. It's like we have ideas, and he has ideas. We have all these ideas on paper I'm sketching. I'm constantly sketching; I'm constantly thinking, and then he will take that and carve it in a three-dimensional space. Sometimes it changes a bit from two dimensions to three dimensions, but it's almost like we have one mind. Like if you cut us in half, maybe neither one of us could function. I hope not. Sharon: You sort of touched on this, because you describe your career over and over. When I was reading about you and reading different biographies, you say that your career was a fairy tale. Can you tell me more about why you say that? Cynthia: Yes, I often say that it was a fairytale for me. First of all, I've wanted to make jewelry since I was a very little girl, and then I had the opportunity to start jewelry in college. They actually have an official department now, and I feel like the six of us instigated that. At that time, I just wanted to be a bench jeweler. I wanted to sit down and hand-make pieces. That's what I loved. I loved fabricating with metal, not so much casting. Then I had the opportunity to start designing and working with Jim, and to have Van Cleef & Arpels call us and bring us out to Beverly Hills and start making jewelry for that milieu of clients. It was very Cinderella-like. My whole collection is about Cinderella. I even have a chain called the Cinderella necklace. It's making everyone princesses and kings and queens and adorning your court, bedecking them with jewels. I don't know if it's because I'm creative and an artist, but I go into a fantasy when I'm designing. It's a fantastical world. It doesn't have anything to do with the day to day, but that is what creativity and art is all about. Sharon: Wow! It sounds like a dream. Cynthia: Well, it's not always a dream. I call it a fairytale journey. I didn't think when I was a young girl, and even when we owned our own store in Abilene and then went to Van Cleef & Arpels, I didn't think I would actually be my own jewelry designer, Cynthia Bach, with my own vision, making my own jewelry. To me, that was like, “Wow!” That's what I always wanted to do and now I'm doing it. But it wasn't always easy because it's hard. It's a hard business. When Nieman Marcus bought my collection, it's very demanding and competitive. There were many times where I wanted to throw in the towel, but I kept pursing, persistent, persistent. You get your obstacles in life. I think the most important thing, if you really want something, is to be persistent about it and never give up. It is a fairytale, but there are a lot of hard knocks. Sharon: It sounds like that's what you would tell somebody starting out in the field, that they have to overcome the obstacles. Cynthia: Yes, because anytime you're starting something, any vision you have, the beginning especially is going to be one obstacle after another. You need to break through it. Sharon: When you graduated, did you work with your husband-to-be before you married him and then the two of you had a store?  Cynthia: Yeah, when I met him—Jim's about 13 years older than I was, so I think I met him when I was in my mid-20s going to college studying jewelry. I went to his shop, and I was very enthusiastic about how much I loved jewelry and wanted to be a jeweler and make jewelry. Two weeks later, he called me and asked if I would like to work in his trade shop. He also had a trade shop that was doing repairs and sizings and setting stones and casting jewelry, which was probably my best education because it was all basic, hands-on making jewelry. One of the things I am really proud of is that I started out making jewelry from the basic beginning onto now making fine jewelry. He had opened a jewelry store with some other investors, and I was apprenticing with him. After college, all the investors left. I don't know why. Maybe it was me; I ran them all off. Sharon: Probably not. Cynthia: We were the only two people left owning the jewelry business, but we were really the jewelers in it anyway. They were all businesspeople, and we were creative people. So yes, he opened the store before I finished college, and then after I finished college we worked together for three or four years before we married. Sharon: It's impressive that you say you were a bench jeweler before you were a designer because there are not many designers that can say that. Cynthia: That's very true. Jewelry's one of the fields in art that you can actually sit and hand-make the pieces yourself and call yourself an artist, or you can just be a designer and have a collection made by a shop somewhere. Back in the old days, to be a jeweler or a designer, you had to actually make jewelry; you had to actually be a jeweler. But what also sets jewelry apart is the creative. You look at Fabergé, he had a whole shop of artisans working for him, and he just had this vivid, fabulous imagination making some of the most brilliant jewelry in the world. The creative is, to me, one of the most essential parts to a great piece of jewelry.  Schlumberger had the creative. He didn't sit down and make jewelry himself, but he knew the shape of a woman's ear, and he would make this earring that would set his jewelry apart because of the shapes. He had such an eye for shapes. I always thought to myself, “Ultimately, what is jewelry? It is a beautiful shape to make a woman look beautiful.” That's not necessarily true, but that's how I look at jewelry when I'm designing it. How the wearer going to look in this piece of jewelry? How is it going to make her feel beautiful and look beautiful and enhance her beauty? Sharon: That's interesting. I'm thinking about a few things. First of all, that Fabergé and Schlumberger had an eye, whether it was for a shape or they were just extremely creative. What do you feel you have an eye for?

It's another episode about a Nietzsche influence. This time, rather than talking about a philosopher from Ancient Greece, we found one from the Ancien Régime: Francois de La Rochefoucauld, the author of the Moral Maxims. Like fellow French philosopher Jean de La Bruyère, La Rochefoucauld is "a man of one book". The Maxims - a volume that is about sixty pages in length - is his sole contribution to the Western philosophical canon. Yet, solely on the basis of this work, Voltaire praised La Rochefoucauld as the greatest master of language since the revival of letters. We'll briefly consider Rochefoucauld's life as a background for his work, study a few central epigrams and his prefaratory essay on self-love in order to lay the groundwork of his thought, compare his ideas to those of Nietzsche's, then take a quick look at a selection of his epigrams of my own choosing.  La Rochefoucauld's style was to write in very short epigrams, often merely a sentence-long. The content of his work is concerned with a number of themes, among them: self-love as the explanation of all human action; the rule of thumb that our true motives are usually concealed from ourselves; that our virtues are often merely our vices in a disguised form. Thus, La Rochefoucauld has the distinction among Nietzsche's influences, insofar as  he influenced Nietzsche both in style and substance. Ironically, the author of the Moral Maxims may have been an immoralist to prefigure Nietzsche. After all, he was one of the first psychologists... and isn't psychology inherently a vice?

Jean-Michel Jarre & Louis-Henri de La Rochefoucauld La mystique est-elle l'avenir de la pop music ? Rencontre animée par Victor Pouchet Aux yeux de Louis-Henri de la Rochefoucauld, romancier et journaliste musical à Technikart, la musique tourne en rond – répétition de formes usées, impostures chics, nihilisme de masse l'accablent. Certains continuent pourtant d'espérer que les lendemains chanteront. Mais comment ? Sur son dernier album, « Equinoxe Infinity », Jean-Michel Jarre mise sur l'intelligence artificielle pour revivifier la création. Dans La Prophétie de John Lennon, roman satirique sur le monde de la pop, Louis-Henri de La Rochefoucauld imagine que la musique sacrée, modernisée, redevient la nouvelle avant-garde. Ces deux visions ne s'opposent qu'en apparence : une même forme de mysticisme les réunit – la croyance que nous pouvons voir plus loin que notre évier. L'avenir sera-t-il aux moines synthétiques ou aux robots ténors ? Réponse au cours d'une conversation qui ne manquera pas d'oxygène. À lire – Louis-Henri de La Rochefoucauld, La Prophétie de John Lennon, Stock, 2019. À écouter – Jean-Michel Jarre, « Equinoxe Infinity », Columbia, 2018. Le Mercredi 27 mars 2019 - 19H00

A big part of maximizing your score on test day is how well you're able to focus and concentrate throughout the entire exam. You've spent months learning all of the how-to's for answering questions correctly, but if you have "brain fog" and aren't able to think clearly and remember everything you've studied when it comes time to actually sit down and take your test, it's all for nothing. Optimal nutrition can play a huge role in maximizing your brain's performance so that you can maintain mental clarity for your best possible result.To discuss this important topic, we're joined in this episode by Dr. Barrett Deubert, a chiropractor and nutrition expert in Knoxville, TN, who shares practical and actionable nutrition hacks that you can employ throughout the entire process of preparing for and taking your standardized test. Specifically, we discuss:How the brain works and the types of macronutrients you should be fueling it with on a daily basis;High-powered brain foods that fuel maximum concentration;5 foods to stay away from to avoid "brain fog" and other lapses of mental clarity and focus;The #1 thing you can tweak in your diet right now that will have the biggest impact on your cognition between now and test day;What you should eat for breakfast on the big day -- and the benefits of taking a cold shower the morning of your exam;How to ensure you don't start to fade mentally at the end of a long test, including the two most important things you should eat and drink during your exam breaks;Whether caffeine is helpful -- and what you should pair with it to maximize its effectiveness;Supplements that have proven benefits for memory and brain support;3 non-nutrition bio-hacks that can empower a high-performing brain;And more!There are a TON of golden nuggets packed into this episode, so you may want to listen to it a couple times and take notes. Nutrition is one of those intangible aspects of test preparation that can play a disproportionate role in your test-day results, so take it seriously. Dr. Barrett will show you how.RESOURCESHere are a few of the resources mentioned in this episode.The ESPN article we mentioned about chess players, "The grandmaster diet: How to lose weight while barely moving."This is the brain support supplement Dr. Barrett mentioned at the end of the show: Qualia MindHere's another high-quality brain support supplement with proven benefits: USANA CopaPrime+Connect with Dr. Barrett at The Health Factory KnoxvilleGet more free nutrition and health/fitness tips from Dr. Barrett via his Facebook PageA DOSE OF MOTIVATION“To eat is a necessity, but to eat intelligently is an art.” — Francois de la Rochefoucauld

Vous en avez déjà mangé à tous les coups — dans les galettes bretonnes, les crozets de Savoie ou encore les soba, ces fines nouilles japonaises… Surnommé « blé noir », le sarrasin n'est pas une céréale au sens botanique puisqu’il ne fait pas partie de la famille des graminées. Mais on dit de cette plante à fleurs qu'elle est une « pseudo céréale » car son utilisation en cuisine se rapproche de celle du blé, de l’avoine ou encore de l’épeautre.Au vu de ses apports énergétiques et de son absence de gluten, sa farine est très appréciée de certaines communautés sportives et des personnes intolérantes au gluten. Par ailleurs, depuis 2010, des producteurs et meuniers bretons sont réunis pour défendre l'indication géographique protégée « Blé noir tradition Bretagne ».Dans cet épisode, nous recevons Olivier Campardou, agriculteur dans les Pyrénées ariégoises, qui vient nous parler de la culture de sarrasin, puis Chihiro Masui, journaliste culinaire née à Tokyo, qui nous raconte la place des nouilles soba dans la gastronomie japonaise.Références entendues dans l’épisode :Les crozets sont une variété de féculents spécifiques à la Savoie. Ce sont de petits morceaux de pâte alimentaire, aplatie au rouleau et coupée en carrés à l’aide d’un couteau-hachoir spécifique, autrefois plutôt fabriqués à la maisonOlivier Campardou cultive le sarrasin dans les Pyrénées ariégeoises. Son atelier se trouve au 36 rue Popincourt, 75011 ParisLe sobacha est une infusion à base de graines de sarrasin torréfiéesIl existe trois façons de semer le sarrasin : en ligne, en poquet ou à la volée. La technique à la volée consiste à projeter les graines de façon aussi homogène que possible sur toute la surface à ensemencer.— Le saké est une boisson alcoolisée japonaise à base de riz— Le coffee shop Otium situé au 56 rue de la Rochefoucauld dans le 9ème arrondissement de ParisChihiro Masui évoque la pâte brisée de Minh-Tâm. Cette dernière était notre invitée dans l’épisode sur les nems.La sauce Tsuyu est de la ciboulette émincée, gingembre ou wasabi râpé.Le soba préféré de Chihiro est le Tensoba, également appelé le tempura soba.Le sobagaki est un bloc de pâte de sarrasin que l’on fait bouillir dans l’eau.Le Kasha est une bouillie à base de sarrasin mondé, de maïs, de riz, de blé, d'avoine, d'orge ou de millet cuits à l'eau.Le restaurant Yen est spécialisé dans les soba, il se trouve au 22, rue Saint Benoît 75006 PARIS.Le foufou est une pâte solide ou molle, souvent élaborée à partir de farine de manioc. On la consomme en Afrique équatoriale.Vous pouvez retrouver les écrits de Chihiro sur son blog. Elle a également participé à l'écriture de “Nouilles d’Asie: Chine, Japon, Vietnam”, publié en 2016 aux éditions du Chêne.

A "Normal" person is the sort of person that might be designed by a committee. You know, "Each person puts in a pretty color and it comes out gray. - Alan Sherman Labels are for filing. Labels are for clothing. Labels are not for people. - Martina Navratilova Most people have become convinced that vanity is a bad quality to have. In fact, it may actually be a cardinal vice which makes it more than bad; it's terrible. If one explores this negative pronouncement in more depth though, it ain't necessarily so. For example, Lord Chesterfield said, "To this principle of vanity, which philosophers call a mean one, and which I do not, I owe a great part of the figure which I have made in life." There you go. Chesterfield thought vanity was one of the keys to his success. It may be that vanity is little more than one of those things that is just going around. If so, even you may have a little yourself. As Blaise Pascal suggested, "Vanity is so secure in the heart of man that everyone wants to be admired: even I who write this, and you who read this." No less an icon than Mark Twain said, "There are no grades of vanity, there are only grades of ability in concealing it;" and there is no end to how clever people can be when concealing it. To illustrate, Louis Kronenberger suggested this strategy, "Nothing so soothes our vanity as a display of greater vanity in others; it makes us vain, in fact, of our modesty;" so if you are uncomfortable with vanity, substitute modesty about being not so vane as some people you know. Just be sure to cleverly conceal it. François de la Rochefoucauld is another one of the folks who got it, "What makes the vanity of others insupportable is that it wounds our own." Benjamin Franklin got it too, "Most people dislike vanity in others, whatever share they have of it themselves; but I give it fair quarter, wherever I meet with it, being persuaded that it is often productive of good to the possessor, and to others who are within his sphere of action: and therefore, in many cases, it would not be altogether absurd if a man were to thank God for his vanity among the other comforts of life." Antonio Porchia also understood, although he did slip in "ridiculous," probably as a minor concession to the vanity police, "Without this ridiculous vanity that takes the form of self-display, and is part of everything and everyone, we would see nothing, and nothing would exist." Fortunately, there is a much better approach. You can simply re-conceptualize. What folks refer to in you as vanity isn't vanity at all. Rather, it's merely a reflection of your positive self-perception. It's what the psychologists call a good self-image. If someone accuses you of vanity, just smile and say: I'm not a giant or a meek little lamb. I am me, that's who I am. I'm taller than a cat and shorter than a tree. I'm the very best me you'll ever see. I like to laugh, I like to smile. I like to daydream once in a while. I'm extra special but I'm still just me. I'm the very best me I know how to be. I always try to do my best. I'm good at a lot of things and getting better at the rest. Here's the truth for everyone to see. It's totally terrific being me. I could tell you more stuff about who I am. I like spaghetti and strawberry jam. Here at last is the most spectacular part. I'm extra special because I'm so smart. Now you know so there you go.

Le 14 juillet 1789, apprenant la prise de la Bastille, le Roi Louis XVI, en son Château de Versailles, aurait dit à ses proches conseillers : « C’est une révolte ! ». De son propre aveu, le Duc de la Rochefoucauld l’aurait alors repris, affirmant : « Non Sire ! C’est une révolution ». Les termes de « révolte » et de « révolution » sont aujourd’hui galvaudés, parfois assimilés, parfois dénaturés. Exagère-t-on lorsque l’on parle de révolte ou de révolution pour désigner des évènements récents et l’actualité ? Comment qualifier avec justesse les récentes évolutions de la vie politique ? Avec Philippe Mazet, professeur de culture générale au sein de l’ISP.

Iowa native Paul Kix joins us on the DMPL Podcast today. Kix, who grew up in Hubbard, is the author of The Saboteur. The book details the life of Robert de La Rochefoucauld, a French aristocrat-turned-resistance fighter in WWII. During the podcast, Kix talks about: Finding out about La Rochefoucauld's life in an obituary and creating a book proposal. Why La Rochefoucauld's incredible story hadn't been told to English audiences yet. Working with French sources to follow-up and confirm extraordinary details while knowing a limited amount of French. How he wrote the book 500 words at a time while continuing his full-time job as deputy editor at ESPN: The Magazine. The most unbelievable parts of La Rochefoucauld's life - and there were several to choose from. You can find more of Kix's work, including magazine stories and other long-form pieces, at his website, paulkix.com. Music credits: "Young, Tough and Terrible" by The Losers / CC BY-NC

This week, we interview Paul Kix, a debut writer whose new nonfiction book THE SABOTEUR is one of the most thrilling nonfiction reads of 2017. It’s about French aristocrat Robert de la Rochefoucauld, who could’ve sat through World War II but instead became a resistance commando sabotaging the Nazis. And we also catch up with British novelist Fiona Mozley, whose new novel ELMET was shortlisted for the Booker Prize.
