the second stands as one of the greatest works of post-’68 it takes place in a Paris imagined as both a city of infinite random encounters and a sinister maze the latter quality sharply enhanced by Ogier’s character Pauline—sometimes known as Émilie—proprietor of a head shop called the Corner of Chance which doubles as the HQ for shadier operations One of the more famous stills from Out 1 shows Ogier staring into a mirror—an image that becomes a mise en abyme her wide eyes conveying an odd fascination with her own reflection Ogier as Pauline/Émilie seems to be contemplating the infinity of her character or the recursive nightmare of her epoch The moment distills the qualities that Gary Indiana has hailed in the actress: “Ogier’s gestural purity and the telegraphic quality of her smallest expressions [suggest] the flexing tensions of a high-wire acrobat.” Pierre Clémenti as Julien and Bulle Ogier as Marie in Le Pont du Nord In the final week of MoMA’s monthlong retrospective devoted to Ogier viewers can marvel at her funambulism in two other films she made with Rivette: Le Pont du Nord (1981) and The Gang of Four (1989) The former originated in a postcard that Ogier asking when they could work together again (their previous collaboration had been the 1976 fantasia Duelle in which Ogier plays the Queen of the Sun) she suggested to Rivette that their new production could be imagined as a sequel of sorts for the character she had played in Fassbinder’s The Third Generation (1979) a member of a Baader-Meinhof–like terrorist cell Bulle Ogier as Hilde Krieger in The Third Generation Ogier’s Marie returns to the French capital in the back of a pickup truck having just served a one-year sentence for vaguely defined insurrectionist crimes “I did something stupid and I got caught,” Marie explains to Baptiste (Pascale Ogier) a stranger quickly turned intimate who is brought into her life when Baptiste almost runs Marie over with her moped Le Pont du Nord is one of several movies Rivette made about female friendships and alliances 1974’s ludic Céline and Julie Go Boating (in which Ogier has a secondary role as a woman trapped in a “House of Fiction,” stuck in an eternal domestic melodrama) the script for Le Pont du Nord was shaped by the main actresses just as the catalyst for Céline and Julie was the actual friendship between leads Dominique Labourier and Juliet Berto the relationship between the protagonists in Le Pont du Nord foregrounds an even more primal real-life connection: Pascale Ogier was Bulle’s only child; separated by a mere nineteen years the two could easily be mistaken for sisters Pascale Ogier as Baptiste and Bulle Ogier as Marie in Le Pont du Nord They traverse mammoth construction sites and areas near the Quai de Bercy dominated by dilapidated warehouses; a reunion early in the film between Marie and her lover on top of the Arc de Triomphe occasions the only glimpse of a well-known landmark a technical limitation masked by an ingenious idea of Ogier’s for her character: Marie suffers severe claustrophobia (even when making a call in an outdoor Bulle Ogier as Marie and Pascale Ogier as Baptiste in Le Pont du Nord Marie and Baptiste’s peregrinations become even stranger when they discover a bizarre map of Paris sectioning the city’s twenty arrondissements into squares that transform the capital into a kind of malefic board game (The title of the film itself adds to this derangement; there is no such eponymous pont in Paris.) “I don’t understand what any of this means,” Marie states calmly to the more excitable Baptiste while looking at that oddly partitioned city diagram Ogier imbues the ex-terrorist with a steadfast equanimity—the composure of a woman who’s had a long time to reflect on her misdeeds takes it upon herself to act as Marie’s protector but I think sometimes you need me”—a line made all the more poignant by the fact that it is delivered by a mother to her daughter who would die one day shy of her twenty-sixth birthday in 1984 Bulle Ogier (foreground) as Constance and cast in The Gang of Four The placidity Ogier exhibits in Le Pont du Nord is elevated to extreme hauteur in her role as Constance Dumas the head of a cultlike acting program in The Gang of Four and insists on commitment so total that her students must forswear employment Day after day these twentysomething thespians rehearse Marivaux’s La double inconstance (surely a punning connection to the name of their guru?) in a tiny theater as Constance always clad in crisp black-and-white ensembles observes and offers cutting comments: “Your only concern has been to build a shelter for your ego.” Her imperiousness has the effect of instilling even greater devotion in her pupils who parse their teacher’s many mysteries—why did she stop performing Yet Constance is not as indifferent to her charges and their lives beyond the stage as she first appears; she commits a great sacrifice on behalf of one of them an exchange between Ogier and Richard would be the fizzy highlight of a boisterous dinner party in Olivier Assayas’s Irma Vep also screening this week.) “Continue please don’t let it take you from your work,” she tells the class befuddled by the plainclothes cops who have entered their sanctum looking to haul away their revered instructor Melissa Anderson is the film editor of 4Columns and the author of a monograph on David Lynch’s Inland Empire from Fireflies Press which is lining the walls of the iconic museum dreamlike cocoon celebrates the offbeat spirit of the artistic movement with a breathtaking view of Parisian monuments the installation pays homage to Louis Aragon's Une vague de rêves and invites you to let yourself be carried away by the poetry of a timeless moment Whether toasting to creative madness or savoring a sweet treat with your head in the clouds the Bulle de rêves reinvents Paris at the crossroads of art and gastronomy with the lights of the capital as a backdrop 2025 for a surreal interlude perched atop the Centre Pompidou La Bulle de rêves promises to rock your parties and your Insta stories Alcohol abuse is dangerous for your health This test was conducted as part of a professional invitation Refer your establishment, click herePromote your event, click here Ideally, Abdullahi Bulle, an ex-banker, should be in a banking hall making financial transactions and providing financial advice to banking clients. Instead, he’s seated at his desk at Nuria Books many of whom are buying Nuria’s books online asking for a preferred delivery location or sharing a mobile money platform where the customer can make their purchase with clients placing orders or asking about specific titles asking advice on how to self-publish their books with support from Nuria’s online store walk-in clients stream into the down-town store eager to market their books or see them in print They take photos with their books and share them on their social media accounts and those of the store while the hard copies remain on the shelves for walk-in customers to browse Nuria Books has become a highly instragrammable location This is the life Bulle chose when he left his eight-and-a-half year-old banking career to follow his passion Bulle launched Nuria Stores as an online bookstore It has since grown to become known as the “Home of African Books.” Within a year of starting the online bookshop the former banker realised that ordinary Kenyan authors were often overlooked by traditional bookstores which typically favour politicians or well-known figures The gap in the market inspired him to create a solution that continues to thrive today “I saw an opportunity there. Since then, we have been onboarding both Kenyan authors and those from other African countries. Now, we have 1,800 self-published authors,” Bulle explains and some Africans currently residing outside the continent Bulle’s mission goes beyond selling books; he aims to give African authors a voice He provides them with a platform to take control of their work empowering them to sell their content and showcase their talents to the world Nuria Store has developed a decentralized system allowing individuals with a manuscript or digital book to bypass mainstream publishers for publishing and marketing The platform connects authors with independent editors enabling writing enthusiasts to explore self-publishing which is rapidly becoming a multi-billion dollar industry providing them with a platform to sell their books online and in physical spaces “I believe we have made a significant impact in this area by giving a voice to self-published authors Many of them have struggled with traditional publishing or selling to bookstores,” he says a four-time self-published author of the Cocktail series confirmed the notable rise in self-publishing since 2014 she affirmed are joining the movement both in Kenya and across Africa and the quality of self-published books has significantly improved over the period I only knew one other person who had done it there are so many; you can’t even count them,” Mwaniki said while taking pictures of herself and her book at the store “There’s a strong push for quality because the quantity is overwhelming Readers are spoiled for choice and won’t settle for just anything People are more informed about self-publishing there were hardly any resources available,” she explained called Publishing Futures: A Study of the Publishing Landscapes in Ghana reveals a growing market for non-traditional publishing methods including digital books and self-publishing is rapidly expanding and becoming an accessible option for many writers thanks to widespread access to computers and the internet the opportunities for authors seeking to invest in publishing their work without relying on established publishing houses have grown tremendously as publishing consultants enter the market,” according to the report the report highlights several entities that support self-publishing an East African-based creative and general writing business registered in Uganda and Kenya and publishing consultancy services to authors and businesses Ngano Hub Consultants assists authors looking to self-publish by providing personalized services to help them achieve their publishing goals Boutique Books also facilitates self-publishing for both new and established authors Book lovers in Nairobi also highlighted the growth of self-published African authors who are helping to showcase local histories and narratives that resonate with Kenyans providing practical solutions and insights we’ve been discovering more Kenyan-authored books The market was previously dominated by European titles so this is a breath of fresh air as we can promote our own,” said Lulu Mandi who is beginning to embrace a reading culture focused on financial literacy is taking advantage of works by Kenyan authors to share local and practical knowledge with her children and relatives “I want my six-year-old son to start learning about money as early as possible I am thrilled that we now have African authors who are emerging to share their wisdom with us,” said Wambui authors must go through a publisher who serves as the main distributor the publisher collects the money and pays the authors annually or semi-annually self-publishing allows authors to receive payments monthly or weekly based on their book sales Most self-published authors are writing a variety of books There is also a growing trend of authors focusing on real estate Books on construction have gained traction as well “There are now more authors who have the courage to write since they have platforms where they can sell their books or expertise in a particular field can now write and publish their work many didn’t know how to start,” explains a source Nuria Stores operates on a pay-as-you-sell model authors can access their earnings in an hour or less The store takes a 30% commission and pays the remaining 70% directly to the authors’ bank accounts or mobile money accounts “We are even faster than Amazon when it comes to payment we are the fastest paymaster in Kenya for our suppliers,” says Bulle The self-publishing initiative has also revolutionized the book publishing and printing industry with many printers now welcoming self-published authors for printing agreements most printers focused on brochures and billboards printers are now offering print-on-demand services which address the challenges faced by authors who only want to publish a small number of copies due to costs Many printers used to require a minimum order of 500 print-on-demand means you can print as few as 10 you can get your book out there,” Bulle explains The cost of self-publishing has become more affordable and whether the book is ready for publication or still a manuscript “It’s essential to have someone skilled in editing review your work You need a second set of eyes to provide guidance Editors in Kenya typically charge betweenUS$ 0.0039 to US$ 0.023 (Ksh 0.5 to Ksh 3) per page and some may have friends who can assist without charge,” says Bulle he stresses that it’s important to work with a qualified editor who understands the craft While there are AI technologies available for design The printing cost can be higher because of economies of scale; printing larger quantities generally reduces the cost per unit it might cost between US$ 1.94(Ksh.250) to US$ 3.10 (Ksh and the quality of paper and printing will significantly improve Many changes are taking place in this industry and we take pride in our contributions to this progress,” Bulle says As Nuria Store aims to place more African books on the global stage it seeks to foster a strong reading culture in Kenya and other African countries ensuring that local authors receive a return on their investments in self-publishing and inspire more readers to engage with literature While readership is increasing year by year the numbers are still not sufficient,” said Bulle Nuria Store has a monthly readership of over 5,000 achieving a monthly readership of 50,000 or 100,000 would make a significant difference in the lives of authors Nuria has partnered with major publishers like Oxford to distribute their books and is also distributing works from other publishers under a distributorship arrangement “We assist many publishers in selling general books because our strength lies in that area We are exploring how we can breathe life into the titles they offer,” says Bulle Chinomso Sunday

commission late… The Loire Valley ranks number one for sparkling wine production in France LM Archer explores why the region’s fine bulles are so highly in-demand As the drinks business has recently reported, crémant consumption is on the rise, with consumers wising up to the quality of French sparkling options outside of Champagne the Loire Valley is the number one sparkling wine production region in France But why is this region ideal for creating fine fizz the Loire Valley offers a winning trifecta of climate Named a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2000 the Loire Valley spans nearly 200 miles (320 km] along the Loire River in central France Winemaking Romans arrived in the Loire Valley 2,000 years ago and volcanic soils suit a variety of grapes the Loire Valley transformed into “The Royal Valley” an opulent kings and courtiers’ playground of white-stoned chateaux savvy 16th century Dutch immigrant merchants arrived which marks the production of Loire Valley’s first fines bulles Fines bulles describes sparkling wines made in the traditional method with secondary fermentation completed in the bottle Loire Valley fines bulles require a minimum of nine months ageing in bottle most producers opt for longer ageing to induce more complex aromas Crémant de Loire ranks as Loire Valley’s largest fines bulles appellation Crémant de Loire AOC (Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée) or AOP (European equivalent Protected Origin Appellation) spans the wine regions of Anjou Crémant de Loire AOC does not stipulate grape requirements but most producers tend to employ Chenin Blanc a whopping 25.9 million bottles of Crémant de Loire sold worldwide – up 42% since 2019 “Sparkling wine consumption increased compare to red wine,” confirms Amandine Demersseman Chargée de Projet Fines Bulles et AOC Saumur Fédération Viticole de l’Anjou et de Saumur “Crémant de Loire benefits from this trend its freshness matches with consumers’ expectations.” Other important Loire Valley sparkling designations include Saumur Brut or Saumur Mousseux from Anjou-Saumur; and Vouvray sparkling from Touraine these areas follow less restrictive grape guidelines Saumur sparkling wines typically employ Chenin and Chardonnay Vouvray sparkling requires the sole use of Chenin labeled as Vouvray Pétillant or Vouvray Mousseux the sum of the Loire’s fines bulles parts intensifies the success of its whole and I also think the quality has improved in the last few years,” underscores Loire expert and Master of Wine Beverly Blanning Saumur’s famed tuffeau chalk imparts a distinctive “Terroir plays a heavy role in our wines,” confirms Alexis Brisebarre of Domaine Brisebarre in Vouvray “Our 100% Chenin Blanc vineyard is located on top of coteau overlooking the Loire Valley the vines planted in a shallow layer of clay with calcaire bedrock just underneath Variations in the clay thickness and mixed rocks in that clay make every plot unique.” like mother and daughter vignerons Sylvie and Manon of Moulin de Chauvigné in Anjou’s Rochefort-sur-Loire plant their Chenin on schist “with the aim of having uniform maturity and to properly reveal the minerality during vinification.” But consumers also flock to Loire’s fine fizz for another reason: the region’s commitment to sustainability Dubbed “The Garden of France,” 80% of Loire Valley estates commit to organic and French environmental certifications like HEV (High Environmental Value – Levels 1,2,3) ) “We were already applying the good practices of the HEV3 specifications in our cultivation method several years before Christian’s death in 2017 It was obvious to us that we would have it administratively validated in 2018,” says Sylvie Plessis who took over Moulin de Chauvigné with daughter Manon after her husband’s unexpected death These “good practices” involve voluntary biodiversity “Le Puy-Notre-Dame is just under 200km (124 mi.) east of the Atlantic Ocean,” says winemaker Jean-Louis Bernet of biodynamic Domaine de la Paleine in Saumur’s Le Puy-Notre-Dame “It is a transition zone between the oceanic and the semi-continental climates with rather satisfactory rainfall levels for viticulture despite stronger and more frequent variations Almost half of the wine growers in Le Puy-Notre-Dame are organic or biodynamic “Being the ninth generation of winemakers in the family and to bring improvements to our winery,” says Amélie Neau of Domaine de Nerleux in Saint-Cyr-en-Bourg “Since I have always been concerned about the environmental issues and the demands of organic farming hinder Neau from full conversion of her 60ha estate Other ecolo-minded farmers face similar headwinds “The main challenge for the exploitations in organic agriculture is to find and maintain a labour force,” says fifth-generation Aubin Lecomte of Château de Passavant in Haut Layon The 70ha site adopted organic and biodynamic farming in 2011 “The first two or three years it has to be able to increase drastically its labour force without any compensation When my parents and uncle started to work in organic production there was no market for organic wines in Anjou The first years they even didn’t noticed the organic logo in the bottles these environmentally mindful conversions prove priceless to Loire Valley sparkling producers – and consumers “I truly think that it’s a benefit to have a vineyard [farmed] organic and biodynamic for a long time to be able to cope [with] climate changes,” Lecomte concludes and all the biodiversity around them [helps] protect them by natural regulation of species All these participate in creating

series of scrum penalties The visitors earned some reward for their efforts in the 13th minute when inside centre Mira Bovu finished a sweeping attack in the left-hand corner Fullback Darryn Fortuin

Khwezi Mkhafu Fortuin added the extras to steer his side into a commanding 11-point lead Just as the game appeared to be slipping away from them Naka Bulle scored their first try through Ethan Williams The forwards managed to set their maul and compromise the Rhinos defence and the scrumhalf raced through a gap to score under the posts with the Naka Bulle winning the collisions and set

A website owned by Sociéte d'Exploitation de la tour Eiffel What the two owners of Press Box Sports Grill took away from their European vacation was a desire for a new fine dining restaurant in northwest Fresno “Being the fifth-largest city in the state it’s time to have a place that is — we’re not going to be a Michelin star restaurant that’s not our goal — our goal though is to give you an experience a lively experience close to that touch or flavor,” Tom Miller said the husband-and-wife team plan to open Bulle by August Davita Miller described the restaurant as a garden feel with food to match “We want people to feel when they walk into our restaurant I want them to feel like they are out of town,” she said The Millers have already hired Casey Pendergras from Studio in Laguna Beach to be their chef The chef at Studio is helping them develop the menu for their Fresno restaurant They also plan on having special nights where the chef from Studio will cook for special events They envision nights where guests will be treated to five- The vision for them is “French technique California-modern cuisine,” Tom Miller said “Our goal is to go hardcore farm to table,” he said the husband-and-wife team are working with farmers throughout California so they have fresh ingredients year-round “The idea would be that it’s seasonal If it’s squash blossoms we’re after that it’s done in one farm it’s done in another,” Tom Miller said Bulle means “bubble” in French That’s how they are designing the former bank The idea would be to have guests feel like a bubble floating through an English or French garden but a very luxurious feel when you walk in,” Davita Miller said The 1,500-square-foot patio space will resemble a Parisian storefront Separate from the main dining room is where Tom Miller envisions a cigar and whiskey room for VIPs and investors But there’s a problem: The California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control says “absolutely not” on the cigar side Tom Miller feels the issue is more about semantics than anything else and they won’t be serving food in there go sit in a room with other adults that want to smoke a cigar and drink a whiskey inside a building is crazy to me,” he said Tom and Davita Miller spent their European vacation touring Michelin star-rated restaurants While Tom says the immediate goal isn’t to go after a Michelin Star rating Even with other tony restaurants like Manhattan Steakhouse and Max’s Bistro a little more than a mile up the road Tom Miller says there’s still a need for dining options in northwest Fresno It’s not our intent or goal right now,” Tom said “Our goal is to source the finest foods Our passion is to give the highest quality we can.” Trump Administration Freezes Future Grants to Harvard Spacemanic won

impact of wastewater effluents on the oxygen levels in the sea water An anchor will hold the WaterCube in place during measurements and after the data is collected the device will be removed from the sea “Spacemanic is thrilled about this opportunity from ESA and immensely grateful to Pierre Cardin for their active participation in furthering of scientific research This award will enable us to further develop our WaterCube concept which we believe has great potential and could one day assist with keeping our oceans safe and teeming with diverse life,” said Daniela Jovic fashion house Pierre Cardin collaborated with ESA on its Prix Bulles an esteemed award which has been presented to a startup whose project and initiatives promote and advance the emergence of an ecological space economy in service to Earth the focus was on the ‘Space for Oceans and Oceans for Space’ and what one can do for the other In the ‘space’ category, ESA’s Commercialisation services department helped Pierre Cardin by publishing an open call for entries mainly among its network of Business Incubation Centres (ESA BICs) around Europe which received 27 applications from startup companies across 12 ESA Member States Applicants described how their space-based system or technology contributed to the sustainable development of an ‘ecological economy of the oceans’ and how they would use the prize money ESA experts and Pierre Cardin Group shortlisted four proposals Rodrigo Basilicati-Cardin (President of the Groupe Pierre Cardin) announced the winner at an event hosted at the fashion label’s Palais Bulles or ‘Bubble Palace’ in Théoule-sur-Mer France saying: “Spacemanic for Maison Cardin is the perfect example of a startup which establishes a virtuous interrelation between space and the oceans Innovation and the business models that result from it are building the future of our planet...the new frontiers that are the oceans and space constitute the future of our societies...I created the Cardin Bubble Prize to highlight a new language…Design and art must be vectors of a vision of the future for humanity to raise awareness among humanity of this vision of the future of our planet.” Environmental advocates Olivier Poivre d’Arvor and Bertrand Piccard Industry and Competitiveness were also on the jury “The Prix Bulles is recognising promising entrepreneurs and the crucial impact that space and space technologies can have on the protection of the environment Our Business Incubation Centres around Europe provided a rich source of talents for this competition and we are pleased that this prize goes to Spacemanic for its WaterCube project to develop a sea pollution detection system based on the CubeSat satellite concept,” commented Géraldine Naja This year ESA celebrates the 20-year anniversary of its first Business Incubation Centre. What started as an initiative from ESA to help start-up companies with promising ideas for space has become a support network of 29 centres
