it was an honour!” she told Olympics.com in Saint-Sébastien-sur-Loire
“I was really just trying to enjoy the experience and share it with the other Torchbearers. It's such a great community. And the energy was so high. For the people as well, to be able to see the little kids all the way up to their grandparents. It was really cool to connect with those people and I think that was really special,” she explained.

The Olympic Torch Relay was very different from the Olympic Games for Gu on a sporting level and more
This once-in-a-lifetime experience showed her a different side of France that she hadn't yet experienced
She discovered Saint-Sébastien-sur-Loire while holding the Olympic flame during her 200m slot
I think that being somewhere where you can feel the energy of the people and be really connected to the locals was very cool,” she shared
This is exactly what the Olympic Games are about
cultures and sports is something that the 20-year-old loves
Gu already knows she'll be able to forge an even more special bond with France
she'll inspire people worldwide to do the same
“It’s such a point of pride for the French people and for everyone to really showcase and understand French culture
I’m really excited for everyone to experience it and for myself as well to be able to know it even better than I do,” she explained
The Olympic Torch Relay and the Olympic Games are happening in a span of 115 days
but the memories they create will be lifelong
Two-time Olympic freeski gold medallist Gu tells Olympics.com how her life changed at the Beijing 2022 Olympic Games in her homeland
The Chinese superstar may have taken time out to begin her college studies at Stanford University in the USA
but that hasn't stopped her ability to win
That'll be tested at the Winter X Games in Aspen
but whatever happens in her freestyle skiing competition she hopes to continue inspiring young girls from China
and around the globe to "go out there and try it for themselves."

“It was really cool to be here in France. I was really excited to be part of it, it was an honour!” -Eileen Gu
Despite her impressive collection of medals from the Beijing 2022 Olympic Games (gold in big air, gold in halfpipe, and silver in slopestyle) Gu said that being a torchbearer was an experience like no other. She felt an incredible sense of pride and excitement, and it was clear that this event held a unique place in her heart.
“I was really just trying to enjoy the experience and share it with the other torchbearers. It’s such a great community. And the energy was so high. For the people as well, to be able to see the little kids all the way up to their grandparents. It was really cool to connect with those people and I think that was really special.” –Eileen Gu
Ailing’s joy and enthusiasm were contagious, making her visit a memorable moment for everyone in the town. It’s always amazing to see such a talented athlete take part in these communal experiences and share her passion with fans of all ages. Stay tuned for more updates as the excitement builds up for Paris 2024!
“What a honor it was to be a torchbearer for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games today. Always feel so blessed to be a part of the Olympic movement and to share the values of collaboration, unity, and inclusivity that sports can bring.” -Eileen Gu

has called the new competitive environment created by Aldi and Lidl "the worst storm in retail history."
I don't think anyone anticipated the market being in meltdown," Asda CEO Andy Clarke said last month after the Walmart-owned company reported its worst ever quarterly sales drop
where they hope to eat away at the market share belonging to discount chains
Aldi recently revealed plans to open roughly 600 stores over the next three years as part of a $3 billion expansion in the US
bringing its total number of stores to 2,000
Aldi and Lidl have become a threat to the grocery industry because of their insanely cheap prices
In the US, where Aldi has roughly 1,400 stores, Aldi's prices are roughly 22% lower than Walmart's, according to a price check
Both stores are also investing far less in customer service and merchandising than traditional grocers
They save money by requiring customers to bring their own shopping bags and bag their own groceries
and customers at Aldi pay a 25-cent deposit to use carts
The deposit is returned when customers return the carts
so Aldi doesn't have to pay employees to round them up and return them to the front of the store
workers don't have to unpack boxes of groceries to stock them on shelves
The products are delivered in boxes with an open side
so they can be thrown onto a shelf without being unpacked
It may not seem as if Aldi and Lidl could compete with a high-end chain like Whole Foods
But Aldi and Lidl are now starting to offer "fancier" foods
2013•2 min readMore than 3,000 high school and college students from 24 countries are gathered in the port city of Rotterdam
this weekend for a race for fuel efficiency
More than 180 cars are entered in Shell Eco-marathon Europe 2013
where students design and build super-low-mileage vehicles
and then prove them on a 10-mile (16.3-kilometer) street circuit
Rainy and windy weather has complicated the schedule
because the low-slung vehicles in the prototype category cannot compete in wet conditions
they are pumped to high pressure and have little grip on slick roads
Austria nearly lost the cover over the driver’s cab in a strong gust of wind on one run
and the driver had to hold the top in place as she finished the lap
Team Microjoule from the technical school La Joliviere in Saint-Sébastien-sur-Loire
with a run of 2888.46 kilometers per liter (6,794.1 miles per gallon)
Team Microjoule stands in first place so far in the gasoline-powered prototype division
but the competition continues through Sunday
Microjoule’s result is not yet near the competition record it set for its category in 2011: 3,688 km/l (8,674.7 mpg)
but that race was run on an more forgiving track on a race course in France
Shell Eco-marathon Europe has been run on the streets of Rotterdam around the Ahoy convention center
Every bump in the road and every turn eats fuel
Eco-marathon competitors attempt to curb their fuel consumption with lightweight
but they are disqualified if they drive too slowly and need to complete the circuit in 39 minutes
Rotterdam Mayor Ahmed Aboutaleb says it’s appropriate that the fuel-efficiency competition is taking place in the low-lying industrial city
The city is especially vulnerable to consequences of climate change like sea-level rise
and yet its economy is heavily reliant on its fossil fuel refineries and import complexes; Rotterdam is looking for solutions that will protect both the environment and the economy
healthy and economically strong city,” Aboutaleb said in prepared welcome remarks he made for the competition
“I hope their innovative ideas will be an inspiration for many people.”

who represented France in rowing at London 1948 after being deported to Germany
a torchbearer was able to enter the hemicycle (debating chamber) of the Council of Europe
The flame sparkled in the midst of leaders

Scream 5 adds a new chapter to one of the most famous film franchises in history; one that has inspired countless nightmares and
the crimes of several real-life attackers like Jaradin
Mario Padilla used three knives to stab his mother
The 16-year-old had enlisted the help of cousin
According to CBS News
the boys told investigators they intended to use money Castillo had been saving for her baby daughter to fund a killing spree inspired by Scream and Scream 2
They planned to purchase Ghostface costumes and an electronic voice modulator and had selected five victims: the first
a classmate that bore resemblance to Scream star
After media began reporting on the case as 'the Scream murder' and the debate flared about the impact of violent films on children
the presiding judge banned any reference to the films in the courtroom
declaring that it should be heard as a regular murder case
Listen: True Crime Conversations dives into the case of Gainesville Ripper
Daniel Rolling — the serial killer who inspired Scream
Both boys were convicted in separate trials
Padilla was sentenced to life in prison for murder and conspiracy to commit murder

lured Murray to an isolated spot in a nearby nature reserve where they stabbed him 18 times using a screwdriver and a knife
Eleven of those stab wounds were to his head
wrapped in a garbage bag but still alive.
A court heard the boys had watched Scream in the hours before the attack
and one had sketches of the Ghostface mask and knives in his school notebook
The Gill and Fuller were convicted of attempted murder and sentenced to six years behind bars
Murray suffered ongoing disability as a result of the attack
He died in a drink driving crash in 2012 with a blood alcohol concentration more than 2.5 times the legal limit, according to The York Press
a French teenager identified only as Julien was sentenced to 22 years in prison for murdering his 15-year-old neighbour
The court heard that Julian, 17, had watched the Scream film over and over in the lead up to his crime, and had a told a classmate he wanted to "see what it was like" to kill someone, according to The Times
he lured Alice out for a walk in their town of Saint-Sebastien-sur-Loire
After they went to a cafe for a soft drink
It was there that Julian stabbed her 42 times
He wore a Ghostface mask during the attack
The prosecution said while the crime was not caused by the film
it provided Julien with the "elements necessary to stage the murder"
“We cannot neglect the fact that Scream played on Julien’s personality," he said
"In the final months preceding these events
You cannot hide his considerable existential unhappiness

trois restaurants brésiliens nous proposent de goûter les spécialités de ce pays
avec une cuisine ensoleillée et (un peu) relevée.
Situé à Saint-Sébastien-sur-Loire
ce petit restaurant brésilien ouvert en 2014 par la Brésilienne Luciana
dont l'accent chantant vous accueille pour le déjeûner en semaine
Facilement repérable sur la route de Clisson
avec sa façade noir et vert acidulé
So Good Brasil propose de déguster des spécialités brésiliennes autour d'une grande table communautaire
traditionnelle feijoada (sorte de cassoulet brésilien)
Toutes ces saveurs délicatement relevées sont à découvrir dans l'établissement au charme dépaysant
avec son mobilier dépareillé et ses nappes chatoyantes
Entièrement relooké début 2016
le restaurant So Good Brasil s'appuie néanmoins sur une formule gagnante : une cuisine qui fait voyager
Cerise sur le gâteau (à l'ananas)
de la vente à emporter et même
une intervention en tant que chef à domicile.

La Brésilienne derrière ce petit restaurant de la rue Jean Jaurès
Sa cuisine d'outre-Atlantique se teinte de saveurs européennes
A Carioca mixe les influences : lasagnes
salades et pièces de boeuf françaises
Mais ce qui fait le charme de ce petit restaurant brésilien
ce sont les spécialités brésiliennes : les bolinho de arroz
sortes de beignets de fromage au riz blanc et persil sont un must-eat
mais vous pouvez aussi vous régaler avec une feijoada
on goûte les yeux fermés aux cocktails ensoleillés : caipirinha
Des noms aussi acidulés que les recettes
Que l'on choisisse de manger sur place ou de prendre un plat à emporter
les goûts originaux des pizzas et les produits frais et maison cuisinés avec amour
Et si l'on souhaite emporter un peu de restaurant brésilien sur ses plus chouettes événements
on peut aussi s'offrir le service traiteur d'A Carioca.

Véritable concept original directement importé du Brésil
Le Brasilien est une pizzeria rodizio Rodi-quoi
Le concept est simple : plus besoin de ne choisir qu'une seule pizza aux saveurs du Brésil
on préfère goûter à toutes les recettes en optant pour le défilé de parts de pizzas
une manette dont il faut placer l'angle coloré en haut
en fonction de ce qu'on souhaite manger : vert pour les pizzas salées
jaune pour les parts sucrées et rouge lorsqu'on veut faire une pause digestive
La dégustation est donc variée et à volonté
dans le très vivant quartier Bouffay
Le Brasilien amène un peu de couleur dans la gastronomie nantaise
avec son concept de restaurant typiquement brésilien
Le choix est vaste : à la carte on trouve pas moins de 18 pizzas
dont 10 recettes sont régulièrement changées
Et si vous êtes seulement de passage
il est possible d'opter pour une pizza à emporter
On teste pour l'originalité du concept
les pizzas sucrées et les saveurs dépaysantes qui se bousculent dans l'assiette.
