Two French friends, a garden full of 50,000 snails and a dream. A foodie duo in Queenstown are bringing molluscs to the mountains, with the launch of the region's very first commercial snail farm. It's called "Otago Escargots" and the pair plan to start supplying top-end Queenstown restaurants with fresh, locally raised snails, in about a year's time. Otago Southland reporter Katie Todd has the story.
Déchelette Architecture is an agency that is less than ten years old in 2025 and is located in the 10th arrondissement of Paris. The research of its two founding partners, Emmanuelle and Philibert Déchelette, aims “to analyze in depth each of the local building cultures, in close collaboration with the actors of the territories concerned, in order to revitalize the best they have to offer, in particular the common sense and the sobriety of know-how”. They are distinguished by two projects: “Casa Franca” in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, a wood and raw earth structure, and “Quatre cheminées”, a construction of 8 social housing units and a shop, with a wood structure and earth façade in Boulogne, delivered in 2023.We talk about these projects in this new issue of Com d'Archi.

Film is such a wonderful art form --- in some instances, almost the entirety of the world may be encompassed. Or the artist makes the attempt to capture the world. And thereby capture timeless subjects that are repeated down the years. Imagine developing a film that looks at the humanity of man. Classism. Racism. Antisemitism. War. The rise of fascism. Nationalism. Accomplished nearly one hundred years ago now --- and the ugly elements portrayed in the film are still around to plague us. Still relevant today.The masterstroke was to expose all of this in a story elegantly simple and straightforward. It was done in 1937 by Jean Renoir --- the film, Grand Illusion. Here --- I'll give you the plot. Two French pilots are captured during WWI. They're sent to a prison camp and try to escape. They almost make it out, but at the last moment, they're sent to a different camp, supposedly inescapable. The German commandant of the POW camp admires them. They hatch another plan to escape, involving a third prisoner. Two of the prisoners escape, due to the sacrifice of the third, shot by the German commandant. There. That's it. You can stop the pod now if you like.Website and blog: www.thosewonderfulpeople.comIG: @thosewonderfulpeopleTwitter: @FilmsInTheDark
Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Today is Day 121 of the war. Arab affairs reporter Luca Pacchiani and reporter Canaan Lidor join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. In 2005, Egypt and Israel signed the “Philadelphi agreement,” which stipulated that Egypt was responsible for securing the 14 km of the axis with 750 soldiers. A slew of Israeli diplomatic faux-pas is causing Egypt to question its relationship with Israel. Pacchiani explains why. According to the Wall Street Journal, internal divisions among Hamas leaders are preventing the Palestinian terror group from backing a proposed hostage release deal that would include a pause to the fighting in the Gaza Strip. The stances of the leaders have also flip-flopped. Pacchiani picks at this knot. Lidor recently spent time on Kibbutz Kfar Aza with Shahar Shnorman and his wife Ayelet Cohen, the first two kibbutznikim to move back there. We hear what life is like there for the couple. Soldiers, mostly reservists, have been moved by the starving animals they're seeing in Gaza and have “rescued” some. But rescue is in the eye of the beholder, especially when it comes to animals that may have monetary value. We hear more. Two French celebrities' online row over the Israel-Hamas war has taken an unusual turn, attracting extensive media coverage. This story has almost every cultural trend in it — class warfare, gender issues, ageism and of course, antisemitism. We hear how it's playing out. For the latest updates, please look at The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog. Discussed articles include: Live blog February 4, 2024 Egypt expert warns: Israel cannot afford to take Cairo's cooperation for granted Hamas leaders at odds over proposed hostage release deal — report Resilience amid ruins: Kfar Aza's first two returnees hope to forge a path of renewal Israeli troops' rescue of animals in Gaza fuels pro-Palestinian ‘looting' charges In France, a celebrity flame war about Israel highlights shifting attitudes THOSE WE HAVE LOST: Civilians and soldiers killed in Hamas's onslaught on Israel THOSE WE ARE MISSING: The hostages and victims whose fate is still unknown Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on iTunes, Spotify, PlayerFM, Google Play, or wherever you get your podcasts.

In Louisiana, all eyes are on the saltwater wedge slowly moving up the Mississippi River, threatening the drinking water supplies for much of the southeastern part of the state. Salt water is unsafe to drink, but it also poses an insidious risk to the region's water infrastructure, where it could linger in lead pipes. Federal, state and local officials are implementing several solutions to prevent the briny water from encroaching on local drinking supplies and causing harm to the infrastructure – and in the meantime, health officials have plans to implement more frequent testing of water supplies. Louisiana state health officer Dr. Joseph Kanter joins us to discuss the health risks of saltwater exposure and how Louisianans can stay safe and prepared. Two French photographers – Audoin de Vergnette and Wayan Barre – spent the summer documenting life down the bayou in Terrebonne Parish. They traveled throughout the area, documenting Indigenous French culture and learning how coastal communities are confronting climate change. They join us for more on their experience within the community and the photos they took, which will be on display at Pointe-aux-Chenes' new elementary school starting this week. The Crescent City Chamber Music Festival is gearing up for its eighth season with seven free concerts across New Orleans. Festival director, violist and native New Orleanian Luke Fleming joins us to talk about what it's been like to bring string instrumentalists from around the world to perform in his hometown. Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Diane Mack. Our managing producer is Alana Schreiber and our assistant producer is Aubry Procell. Our engineer is Garrett Pittman.

Stunned employees rushed to the scene of the three-storey commercial premises near Sukhumvit after they heard the two French men arguing furiously and then heard four shots. Later, 48-year old David Bouton stumbled out of the kitchen area to meet them. He had a bullet wound to the left-hand side of his rib cage. He was taken to nearby Samitivej Hospital where he is currently being treated. Two bodies were found further inside the building in the ground floor work area. https://www.thaiexaminer.com/thai-news-foreigners/2022/05/06/french-men-in-fatal-bangkok-shooting-david-bouton-marc-lohberger/ James Morris reports from Bangkok.
Two French producers and long-time friends, Geinst and Inerit are releasing their first LP on the new imprint ITAE. The novel space focused on borderless, spontaneous, and free from standardization music. Three years in the making and featuring four tracks from each producer, the inaugural album ITAE001 explores a variety of atmospheric animations within the lushly spectral aesthetic. Evocative on the dance floor yet occupying mellow ground, the closing track ‘Soft Escape' captured a lovely resonance in its linear, intensifying rhythms and punchy soft beats. Across the distinctly mysterious landscape, drift morphic long-tones atop of moody interweaving patterns. Uncluttered and grounded in calm, the track reminiscent of that witching-hour hypnotic solitude.

Elise Busset, an undergraduate at Oxford University, reads an extract from Madam Bovary in french. Blog post by Professor Jennifer Yee. The heroine of Gustave Flaubert's 1857 novel Madame Bovary, Emma, is the daughter of a farmer, who has been educated ‘above her station' alongside aristocratic girls in a convent. She read Romantic novels, some of them smuggled into the convent illicitly, and her reading has filled her with vivid, unrealisable fantasies and less clearly defined aspirations to a more glamourous life. When Charles Bovary, a medical officer from a nearby village, comes to the farm to set her father's broken leg, he falls in love with her. He is probably one of the first men Emma has met who is not a farmer, a priest, or her father. Naturally she accepts him. Theirs is a country wedding, rather more rustic than Emma would have liked (she would have preferred to be married at midnight, by the light of flaming torches). Emma's wedding cake gives physical form to her Romantic dreams and half-formed aspirations. Clearly, Emma is not going to find satisfaction in her married life. Madame Bovary is one of the greatest French adultery novels, adultery being - of course! - one of the great themes of the French novel. Plot spoiler: it doesn't end well. At the moment of her wedding, however, Emma still has, intact, the notion that she will find ‘la passion' and ‘la félicité' in married life. For the first chapters we are not given much access to her point of view. Instead, we see her mostly from outside through Charles's gaze: her slim fingers, her sensuous gestures, and a sort of iridescence of her whole being, from the colour of her eyes to the light playing through her parasol. The wedding cake offers us a glimpse of things that we will learn later about Emma's inner, fantasy life; and because it is a visually ridiculous object it also tells us about the impossibility of those fantasies. The cake is a joke - a grosse blague, such as Flaubert was very fond of. And yet it is not simply a way of mocking Emma's Romantic dreams and social aspirations. Flaubert believed that irony at the expense of his characters did not reduce pathos (or the reader's emotional response); on the contrary, it should increase it. Emma is a tragic figure in a very modern sense: she is caught in the gap between her inner life and the real world in which she lives. We are all potentially subject to this irony. Flaubert is reputed to have said ‘Madame Bovary, c'est moi' and many of us could say as much. Later in the century, a philosopher called Jules de Gaultier was to coin the term le bovarysme (Bovarysm) for what he saw as the essential human capacity to imagine that we are something we are not. Here is the description of Emma's wedding cake, in French and in English. On avait été chercher un pâtissier à Yvetot, pour les tourtes et les nougats. Comme il débutait dans le pays, il avait soigné les choses; et il apporta, lui-même, au dessert, une pièce montée qui fit pousser des cris. À la base, d'abord, c'était un carré de carton bleu figurant un temple avec portiques, colonnades et statuettes de stuc tout autour, dans des niches constellées d'étoiles en papier doré; puis se tenait au second étage un donjon en gâteau de Savoie, entouré de menues fortifications en angélique, amandes, raisins secs, quartiers d'oranges; et enfin, sur la plate-forme supérieure, qui était une prairie verte où il y avait des rochers avec des lacs de confitures et des bateaux en écales de noisettes, on voyait un petit Amour, se balançant à une escarpolette de chocolat, dont les deux poteaux étaient terminés par deux boutons de rose naturelle, en guise de boules, au sommet. Gustave Flaubert, Madame Bovary, 1857. Listen to the passage read in French by Elise, an undergraduate at Oxford University. The tarts and nougats had been ordered from a pastry-cook in Yvetot. As he was new to the area, he had gone to a great deal of trouble, and he himself brought to the table, at the dessert stage, an elaborate confection which drew cries of admiration. The base was a square of blue cardboard repesenting a temple with, round its sides, porticos, colonnades and stucco statuettes in niches spangled with gold-paper stars. The main tier consisted of a medieval castle made of sponge cake, surrounded by tiny battlements of angelica, almonds, raisins and orange segments; and, finally, on the topmost layer – a green meadow with rocks, lakes of jam, and hazelnut-shell boats – a little Cupid sat on a chocolate swing, the uprights of which were finished with real rosebuds in the place of knobs. Gustave Flaubert, Madame Bovary (1857), translated by Margaret Mauldon (Oxford University Press, ‘Oxford World's Classics', 2004), p. 27. Listen to the passage read in English translation by Eleanor, an undergraduate at Oxford University.

À la base, d'abord, c'était un carré de carton bleu figurant un temple avec portiques, colonnades et statuettes de stuc tout autour, dans des niches constellées d'étoiles en papier doré; puis se tenait au second étage un donjon en gâteau de Savoie, entouré de menues fortifications en angélique, amandes, raisins secs, quartiers d'oranges; et enfin, sur la plate-forme supérieure, qui était une prairie verte où il y avait des rochers avec des lacs de confitures et des bateaux en écales de noisettes, on voyait un petit Amour, se balançant à une escarpolette de chocolat, dont les deux poteaux étaient terminés par deux boutons de rose naturelle, en guise de boules, au sommet. Gustave Flaubert, Madame Bovary, 1857. Listen to the passage read in French by Elise, an undergraduate at Oxford University. The tarts and nougats had been ordered from a pastry-cook in Yvetot. As he was new to the area, he had gone to a great deal of trouble, and he himself brought to the table, at the dessert stage, an elaborate confection which drew cries of admiration. The base was a square of blue cardboard repesenting a temple with, round its sides, porticos, colonnades and stucco statuettes in niches spangled with gold-paper stars. The main tier consisted of a medieval castle made of sponge cake, surrounded by tiny battlements of angelica, almonds, raisins and orange segments; and, finally, on the topmost layer – a green meadow with rocks, lakes of jam, and hazelnut-shell boats – a little Cupid sat on a chocolate swing, the uprights of which were finished with real rosebuds in the place of knobs. Gustave Flaubert, Madame Bovary (1857), translated by Margaret Mauldon (Oxford University Press, ‘Oxford World's Classics', 2004), p. 27.

Elise Busset, an undergraduate at Oxford University, reads an extract from Madam Bovary in french. Blog post by Professor Jennifer Yee. The heroine of Gustave Flaubert’s 1857 novel Madame Bovary, Emma, is the daughter of a farmer, who has been educated ‘above her station’ alongside aristocratic girls in a convent. She read Romantic novels, some of them smuggled into the convent illicitly, and her reading has filled her with vivid, unrealisable fantasies and less clearly defined aspirations to a more glamourous life. When Charles Bovary, a medical officer from a nearby village, comes to the farm to set her father’s broken leg, he falls in love with her. He is probably one of the first men Emma has met who is not a farmer, a priest, or her father. Naturally she accepts him. Theirs is a country wedding, rather more rustic than Emma would have liked (she would have preferred to be married at midnight, by the light of flaming torches). Emma’s wedding cake gives physical form to her Romantic dreams and half-formed aspirations. Clearly, Emma is not going to find satisfaction in her married life. Madame Bovary is one of the greatest French adultery novels, adultery being - of course! - one of the great themes of the French novel. Plot spoiler: it doesn’t end well. At the moment of her wedding, however, Emma still has, intact, the notion that she will find ‘la passion’ and ‘la félicité’ in married life. For the first chapters we are not given much access to her point of view. Instead, we see her mostly from outside through Charles’s gaze: her slim fingers, her sensuous gestures, and a sort of iridescence of her whole being, from the colour of her eyes to the light playing through her parasol. The wedding cake offers us a glimpse of things that we will learn later about Emma’s inner, fantasy life; and because it is a visually ridiculous object it also tells us about the impossibility of those fantasies. The cake is a joke - a grosse blague, such as Flaubert was very fond of. And yet it is not simply a way of mocking Emma’s Romantic dreams and social aspirations. Flaubert believed that irony at the expense of his characters did not reduce pathos (or the reader’s emotional response); on the contrary, it should increase it. Emma is a tragic figure in a very modern sense: she is caught in the gap between her inner life and the real world in which she lives. We are all potentially subject to this irony. Flaubert is reputed to have said ‘Madame Bovary, c’est moi’ and many of us could say as much. Later in the century, a philosopher called Jules de Gaultier was to coin the term le bovarysme (Bovarysm) for what he saw as the essential human capacity to imagine that we are something we are not.

Building an online membership community when you have previously always operated in person is no easy task. Diving into a world where you need to learn the technology, build websites, record videos and put together course material could be seen as too overwhelming. In fact, for a lot of people it does feel like it's too hard. They don't have the patience to start from scratch and they're too embarrassed to ask for help. My guest today on the podcast, Alexandra Ganipeau rose to the challenges that she faced to build the business she's so excited to lead today. Alexandra is a fantastic french tutor with years of experience introducing students to the culture, and learning the french language. She has always enjoyed it, but being forced to work away from the home for many years was starting to take a toll on her. Then in 2019 Alexandra was diagnosed with breast cancer and was forced to completely stop, focus on her treatment and recovery. It was a very tough year for so many reasons, but when Alexandra was given the all clear, Alex realised she wanted to do business differently than she previously had. Alex discovered my course, Scalable and jumped straight in. She started building not one, but TWO memberships and has experienced fantastic growth in a whole new world. Today we're discussing all things course creation, things she didn't expect, the fantastic sense of community that she has built and how Alex's life has changed.

Two French pals experiment on each other with hemerrhoid cream. We can add maple syrup to the list of things we need to worry about.
In this episode we talk about some of the best French Fortresses in France...
Two French government ministers have announced their opposition to a potential takeover of the country's biggest supermarket chain Carrefour by the Canadian group Couche-Tard. The two companies announced they were in preliminary talks on a deal earlier this week. France's Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said a takeover was an issue of "food sovereignty". His ministry would need to approve any deal affecting the food distribution sector. Also today, how carmakers are trying to cut the cost of electric vehicles for consumers.
KFC has dropped their slogan “Finger Licking Good” because it's not very appropriate during a pandemic. Two French police officers have been criticised for confronting a woman sunbaking topless on a beach. And speaking of nudity, a German nudist has gone viral after a boar stole his laptop.

Two French industrial giants say they’ve found the right project to rapidly scale up the nascent industry as the European Union launches a new push to make hydrogen one of the clean fuels of the future Engie SA and Air Liquide SA want to build solar farms big enough to power 450,000 homes in France’s sun-drenched Provence region, with enough electricity left over to produce hydrogen by electrolyzing water. Some of the clean-burning gas would be sold to refineries and chemicals makers in Fos-sur-Mer, curbing their emissions of carbon dioxide. Gwenaelle Avice-Huet, Engie’s head of renewables, said for the project to work, they need support from the state and incentives for companies to switch to green hydrogen. They also need to scale up with projects of significant sizes to lower costs. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

About our gear: The French Press - A French press, also known as a cafetière, cafetière à piston, caffettiera a stantuffo, press pot, coffee press, or coffee plunger, is a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee (coffee) brewing device. Two French inventors (Mayer and Delforge) patented in 1852 a forerunner of the French press. A patent was filed by a Frenchman, Marcel-Pierre Paquet dit Jolbert, officially published on August 5, 1924. In 1923 Ugo Paolini, an Italian, lodged patent documents relating to a tomato juice separator and he developed the idea of making a coffee pot with a press action and a filter. He assigned his 1928 patent to Italian designer Attilio Calimani and Giulio Monetahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_press#cite_note-1 ([1]) who filed it in 1929.

Madonna went on: 'So I showed up for the audition and two very large French record producers sat in the empty theater, daring me to be amazing. The dance audition went well. Then they asked me if I had sheet music and a song prepared. I panicked. I had overlooked this important part of the audition process... 'I had to think fast, my next meal was on the line. Fortunately one of my favorite albums was Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin. I blurted out 'You Make Me Feel'… silence. '(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman.' Two French guys nodded at me. I said, 'You know, by Aretha Franklin.'' She continued: 'They looked over at the pianist, he shook his head. 'I don't need sheet music,' I said, 'I know every word. I know the song by heart, I will sing it a cappella.' I could see that they did not take me seriously — and why should they? The criticism didn’t seem to dissuade Minaj, as she maintained her opinion while talking to TMZ before the VMAs. “I am the new Harriet Tubman,” she said on her way to the VMAs. When asked if she thought it was too far given Tubman’s slavery connections, Minaj repeated, “No, no, I am Harriet Tubman. Leave me alone.” The controversy began Monday afternoon when she tweeted about Tubman, praising her for shaking “s–t up.”

ISEFAC is one of the largest private education organizations in France and this year, 62 of its master’s students joined the study tour to Japan. Otsuka is one of the stops these HR Management, Public Relations and Marketing students made. In the past, such overseas study groups have traveled to Denmark and China. Next year will the United States. It was a short but a very important visit for the visitors as most did not know much about Japan to begin with, let alone how companies are run in Japan. The students were very interested in Otsuka’s unique approach and venture spirit and felt that Otsuka respects human beings as well as the environment. Student Reactions Lada Dibrova was impressed with Otsuka’s creative approach. “Otsuka's particularity is the fact that its field of work is science yet it has a very creative approach. Precision and rigor are the key factors when you create pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products so it seems that there is no place for originality. Yet Otsuka turned this around and made creativity and diversity its primary values. From what I have seen during the presentation it is these values that made Otsuka the leader on the market and helped take another step on the way of solving some of society's essential problems like schizophrenia and world hunger. I also think Otsuka is a company that really values its employees and creates a positive working environment.” Stephanie Scott said, “I wasn’t aware that Gerblé was held by Otsuka Pharmaceutical, so now I know that Otsuka isn’t only a pharmaceutical company but also a nutrition company.” Another ISEFAC student, Doriane Gouas-Vadot shared, “My first impression of Otsuka was that it is obvious that Otsuka is with an international scope. Just look at the website, it positively breaks the rules usually respected by pharmaceutical companies and gives the impression that the company is very close to patients.” Our philosophy Mr. Byunghoon Lee gave a presentation about Otsuka’s culture to the French master’s degree students by beginning with Otsuka Group’s philosophy: Otsuka-people creating new products for better health worldwide. This philosophy has driven employees to create great things and grow the company in a unique way. In order to explain the philosophy, slides with the four main points were used to explain further; ‘Otsuka-people’, ‘For better health’, ‘Creativity’ and ‘Diversity’. First, Otsuka’s most important asset is its employees who follow these four main pillars. Secondly, Otsuka is a for-profit company, but approaches ‘healthcare’ in the sincerest way possible. Thirdly, Otsuka people must use their ‘creativity’ and practice their ‘diversity’ in order to accomplish their ultimate goal of ‘creating new products for better health worldwide’. Otsuka’s creativity starts with ‘paradigm shift’ and embracing ‘diversity’ of Otsuka people and their ideas. To better explain the concept, the presentation was wrapped up with the turning of the flat world map upside down to show the guests that Otsuka employees are always encouraged to think differently rather than to follow the convention.

In a discussion at the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture in Paris in 1667 on Nicolas Poussin's painting of Christ Healing the Blind (1650), the participants assumed that fidelity to the biblical text was part of the painter's brief, yet they could not account for several aspects of the painting or even agree on whether Poussin depicted the miracle at Capernaum (Matthew 9) or the one at Jericho (Matthew 20), a point still unresolved. Modern scholarship tends to view Poussin’s painting as thematizing seeing and (proper) looking, but this paper returns to the relationship of the painting to its textual source(s), viewing it as a "visual exegesis" of Scripture, and examines the range of possible readings of both Poussin's painting and a related, but remarkably different, painting by Philippe de Champaigne (ca. 1660). Particular attention is given to the desire and faith of the blind men and to Christ's potent gesture.
