2024 reading wrap up

january is almost over and yet the ghost of reading year past shall not rest untill i rank all the books👻📚

*the tiers are once again named after different things from the books featured on this list - see explanation below🙃 **the following series i read in full are represented only by one book respectively: doctrine of labyrinths, her instruments, the riverside trilogy, the memoirs of lady trent, the cemeteries of amalo, the stolen heir, the summer hikaru died, evander mills, page & sommers ***usually i don't rank rereads but since this year i had only two - the three musketeers and swordspoint - and they both ended up on the top tier i decided to add them for completeness' sake

so in 2024 i broke all my previous records in regards to the amount of books/pages read. my secret? being unemployed lol. but now that i have started my phd and got a full time job my reading is bound to decrease dramatically which is probably a good thing bc i feel like, while reading so much definitely helps you find more good books and authors faster, the downside is that stories stand out less, regardless of their quality. altho i do love every book i put on the top tier dearly, compared to the previous year's (smaller) selection this one seems quite homogeneous and sff focused. and 3 out of top 5 books/series are straight! who is responsible for this?!🤨

i did well on almost all my nerd ass challenges: finishing and continuing series, starting new ones, not neglecting standalone sff, reading widely in terms of genre and language, not putting off big intimidating books etc etc. i even completed my oldest challenge for the first time by finally managing to read five chunky classics in the span of one year - this won't be happening again any time soon😅 in the future i want to shift my focus to difficult historical novels instead bc i sure don't have enough brain space for both. where i "failed" on the other hand was reading nonfiction: i realized that no matter how much interest i have in the topic the only way i'm able to process factual information is if a trans youtuber dressed as a dominatrix or a cat or some sort of jester is telling it to me in an asmr voice. i'm not very good at encouraging myself to reread the things i want to reread either - hopefully that will change in 2025 so that i can finally reread aftg🪄

last year i tried blogging more about my current reads and it was fun while it lasted - now i sadly don't have time to do that anymore :( so my 2024 reading updates must remain unfinished. in any case, just by looking at this tier list i can come to the same conclusions i would've come to if i had reviewed each and every one of these books: niche sff is where it's at for me, older books are better written, and simply queer is not enough for me anymore - i need intricate mind games and rituals that transcend sexuality lol.

so if you know such books please rec them to me! and tell me about your reading year - by making a tier list, or writing a post or just sharing your fave 2024 reads like @oliviermiraarmstrongs tagged me to do. thank you btw😌💜

@figuringthengsout @fugitoidkry @pinkasrenzo @fandomreferencepending @counterwiddershins @magpiefngrl @sugarbabywenkexing @weirdsociology @theodoradove @doh-rae-me @venndaai @sixappleseeds

p.s. it just came to my knowledge that my year in books is still active. tagging everyone who wants to do this! :D

goodreads │ old yearly wrap ups 2020 2021 2022 2023 │ my book tag

✨explanation of the tier titles under the cut✨

obligation d'âme is a spell a wizard can cast on a person in sarah monette's doctrine of labyrinths that binds them "closer than lovers". it's very bdsm-coded and a tiny bit problematic bc the enchanted then has to do everything the wizard commands and they may or may not be referred to as slave🫢🙈 on the bright side tho it's very hot and gay🤷‍♀️ just like obligation d'âme these books have put me under their problematic spell🪄

peltedverse is the unofficial name of mca hogarth's sci fi universe populated by humans, human-animal hybrids, space elves and aliens, which has been steadily growing on me ever since i discovered the dreamhealers. in 2024 her instruments completely charmed me by its cast of loveable characters, wacky adventures and fairy-tale romance. it's not the best thought-out world but it has this home-cooked quality to it which i prefer to carefully calculated lore that makes 100% of sense all the time. and these books, while not as good as the ones in the upper tier, have still captured my heart😌

racallio ryndoon is an episodic character in george r.r. martin's fire & blood. he's a chaotic crossdressing bisexual pirate captain with purple hair who likes to be spanked by his wives, gives severed heads as a courting gift and will sell the right of safe passage through his waters for a kiss. all in all, a perfect character who is sadly present only for one short episode. i remember him fondly but i wish he had more to give - just like these books☠️🦜⛵

calliagnosia is a procedure ted chiang invented in his short story liking what you see: a documentary which enables people to turn off their perception of physical beauty - leading to less lookism-based discrimination at the cost of finding nobody hot lol (at least in their looks). the story follows the controversy around making calliagnosia obligatory in certain environments and just like the characters who can't seem to decide whether finding people hot or stopping discrimination is more important, i am of two minds on whether these books are actually good or not😅

gong bath is the preferred method of patient treatment of the sex therapist the main character of jen beagin's big swiss is working for. meaning: the patient rests on the couch while the therapist chants and strikes the gong he has in his office. just like gong bath, these books didn't harm me - but they didn't cure me either😐

the philosophers' colloquium is the crusty dusty male centered science academy that kept refusing to admit lady trent despite her outstanding contributions to the natural history of dragons😠 disappointing, overrated, ill-shampooed - just like these books🧐

life-sickness is something the inhabitants of hope mirrlees' lud-in-the-mist didn't realize they suffered from until they tried forbidden fairy fruit. these books were so disappointing, boring, annoying or offensive that they made me brain-sick, depressed and upset about the state of Literature����

National Review makes a fair point about Boeing's sweet deals

Boeing agreed to a plea deal with the Department of Justice over two deadly crashes of its 737 MAX aircraft in Indonesia and Ethiopia. The company pleaded guilty to defrauding the government by misleading regulators about an aircraft system that caused the crashes. Boeing will pay a fine of $243.6 million and be required to invest $455 million in safety, with an independent monitor overseeing the company for the next three years. But this should not be viewed as a purely private-sector failure. Boeing arguably benefits more from cronyism than any other U.S. company. The Export-Import Bank finances other countries’ purchases of its jets, including the 737 MAX series. The regulatory agency that Boeing has pleaded guilty to misleading, the Federal Aviation Administration, told Congress in June it was “too hands-off” in its oversight, after a door came off an Alaska Airlines Boeing. This extremely cozy relationship with government has been viewed as necessary for Boeing’s international competitiveness, but amid these safety concerns, orders are drying up and more customers are looking to Airbus for new planes. By preventing the case from going to trial, the DOJ is also likely preventing more information from coming to light about government complicity in Boeing’s failures.

Have they seen the Tenderloin?

San Francisco has discovered a new way to “solve” crime: Force businesses to close. The San Francisco Board of Supervisors has unanimously decided to forcibly close retail food and tobacco businesses, not including restaurants and bars, from midnight to 5 a.m. in a designated “high-crime area” in the Tenderloin neighborhood. This is a two-year “pilot” plan in response to the “high rate of drug-related crime in the Tenderloin.” The Tenderloin Housing Clinic supported this decision, with its director of community organizing blaming businesses for “feeding into this ecosystem.” Evidently, it is the fault of these businesses for allowing drug-addicted homeless people and criminals to wreak havoc in the neighborhood, not the fault of the district attorney, law enforcement, or the Board of Supervisors for allowing these conditions in the first place. This is made all the more bizarre by the fact that the city had previously authorized a “safe” drug consumption center in the Tenderloin district. San Francisco had given the green light to allow drug addicts to shoot up whenever they wanted, a move that predictably backfired as the neighborhood became less safe and less sanitary, made worse by the city’s refusal to prosecute them or just about any other criminals. Now, the blame is falling on businesses that are being forced to close by a city that created this problem in the first place.***

Good

Joe Biden had recently nominated Sarah Netburn, a woke activist judge for a lifetime position in the NY court system. This is the same judge that put a 6’2” convicted male pedophile in a women’s prison because he identified as a woman. He then exposed himself to female inmates.

However, it seems even this judge was just too much. Sarah Netburn's nomination was shot down on Thursday, preventing her from obtaining a lifelong seat in the NY court system.

LoT-T BTW - she was nominated to join the US District Court for the Southern District of New York.

What about all the other ammunition on earth?

***The case was dismissed by Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer, who ruled that the prosecution withheld potential evidence from Baldwin’s defense team — a collection of rounds that had been turned in to the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office earlier this year and may have been connected to the shooting. The possible evidence related to the question of how live ammunition ended up on set and inside the revolver that killed Hutchins, a key element in the chain of events that led to her death. Marlowe Sommer said it was “intentional and deliberate” that the prosecution had not shared the live rounds with Baldwin’s attorneys for evaluation. The actor’s team argued that the evidence may have cast doubt on whether Gutierrez-Reed had brought the live ammunition to the set, and that it was concealed because it was favorable to Baldwin and undercut the prosecution’s argument that Baldwin should have known the armorer was young and inexperienced and therefore taken extra precautions. In her ruling, Marlowe Sommer said that Baldwin’s defense team should have been informed of the ammunition earlier and that it was now too late to be incorporated into their defense. That meant not even the declaration of a mistrial could remedy the situation, meaning the case had to be dismissed with prejudice.*** https://www.washingtonpost.com/style/2024/07/13/alec-baldwin-trial-dismissal-rust/

+++

*** The issue emerged Thursday on the second day of the actor’s trial during defense questioning of sheriff’s crime scene technician Marissa Poppell. Baldwin lawyer Alex Spiro asked whether a “good Samaritan” had come into the sheriff’s office with the ammunition earlier this year at the end of the trial of Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the film’s armorer, for her role in Hutchins’ death. She was sentenced to 18 months in prison on an involuntary manslaughter conviction, which she is now appealing. The evidence was not put into the same file as the rest of the “Rust” case, and was not presented to Baldwin’s defense team when they examined the ballistics evidence in April. The man who supplied ammunition was a close friend of Gutierrez-Reed’s father, movie armorer Thell Reed. Special prosecutor Kari Morrissey argued that the move from the men was part of an attempt by Reed to shift blame away from his daughter. “This is a wild goose chase that has no evidentiary value whatsoever,” Morrissey told the judge Friday. “This is just a man trying to protect his daughter.” The case’s other special prosecutor, Erlinda Ocampo Johnson, resigned from the case earlier Friday. Spiro asked whether she had resigned based on the evidence issues being discussed. Morrissey said she believed it was over the holding of the public hearing itself. Speaking outside the courthouse doors, Morrissey said she respects the judge’s decision but that there was no reason to believe the undisclosed evidence in question was related to the set of “Rust.” “The importance of the evidence was misconstrued by the defense attorneys,” she said. “We did everything humanly possible to bring justice to Halyna and to her family and we’re proud of the work we did.” https://www.denverpost.com/2024/07/12/alec-baldwin-criminal-case-dismissed-new-mexico-rust-cinematographer-killed

I heard that the DA said the rounds in question had never been in New Mexico. The rounds had never left Arizona at any time relevant to the case.

The prosecution can appeal this dismissal. I hope they succeed.

Stupid headline of the day from Denver Post -

"Trump is injured but "fine" after apparent assassination attempt leaves rally-goer and gunman dead"

Do they really think Thomas Matthew Crooks was shooting at Corey Comperatore? BTW, RIP, Corey.

Ex-volunteer fire chief Corey Comperatore ID’d as Trump sniper victim, shielded his daughter from assassin’s bullets -NYPost

A former Pennsylvania volunteer fire chief was identified as the victim killed by a sniper who shot and wounded former President Donald Trump. Corey Comperatore, 50, who served as the fire chief for Buffalo Township, was shot and killed by Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, at a rally for Trump that left the former president and two others injured on Sunday, local WPXI reports.***

+++

4chan showed that Crooks registered as a Repub. MSN/Reuters notes

When Crooks was 17, he made a $15 donation to ActBlue, a political action committee that raises money for left-leaning and Democratic politicians, according to a 2021 Federal Election Commission filing. The donation was earmarked for the Progressive Turnout Project, a national group that rallies Democrats to vote. The groups did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

Tulsi Gabbard nails it:

"The assassination attempt on President Trump is a logical consequence of repeatedly comparing him to Adolf Hitler," Gabbard posted early Sunday morning on X. "After all, if Trump truly was another Hitler, wouldn't it be their moral duty to assassinate him?"***

documents case dismissed

J. Cannon dismissed the charges in United States v. Trump, 23-cr-80101 (S.D.Fla. Jul. 15, 2024). The opinion and order is linked.

Former President Trump’s Motion to Dismiss Indictment Based on the Unlawful Appointment and Funding of Special Counsel Jack Smith is GRANTED in accordance with this Order [ECF No. 326]. The Superseding Indictment is DISMISSED because Special Counsel Smith’s appointment violates the Appointments Clause of the United States Constitution. U.S. Const., Art. II, § 2, cl. 2. Special Counsel Smith’s use of a permanent indefinite appropriation also violates the Appropriations Clause, U.S. Const., Art. I, § 9, cl. 7, but the Court need not address the proper remedy for that funding violation given the dismissal on Appointments Clause grounds.***

The first is a challenge to his appointment under the Appointments Clause, which provides the exclusive means for appointing “Officers of the United States.” Article II, § 2, cl. 2. The Appointments Clause sets as a default rule that all “Officers of the United States”—whether “inferior” or “principal”—must be appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. Id. It then goes on to direct that “Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in Heads of Departments.” Id. For purposes of this Order, the Court accepts the Special Counsel’s contested view that he qualifies as an “inferior Officer,” not a “principal” one, although the Court expresses reservations about that proposition and addresses those arguments below. The Motion’s second challenge is rooted in the Appropriations Clause, which prohibits any money from being “drawn from the Treasury” unless such funding has been appropriated by an act of Congress. Art. I, § 9, cl. 7 (“No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law. . . .”).***

Jack Smith was appointed by the Attorney General, not the president. He was not confirmed by the Senate. His office was funded by a DoJ slush fund, not by Congress.

***

Turns out senators aren't supposed to take gold bars in exchange for influencing foreign policy. Who knew?

A jury just convicted Sen Bob Menendez of New Jersey. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4761968-bob-menendez-guilty-verdict/

He had also been tried for corruption as a senator, but the jury couldn't reach decision in 2017.

Was that wrong? Should he not have done that?

+++

Good luck with that. Let me know how that works out for you.

President Joe Biden is preparing to propose a major Supreme Court overhaul in the coming week that would include term limits for justices and an enforceable ethics code, the Washington Post reported on Tuesday citing two sources familiar with the plans. Biden is also weighing whether to call for a constitutional amendment to eliminate broad presidential immunity, the Post reported**** https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/immunity-supreme-court/2024/07/16/id/1172805

First of all, term limits require constitutional amendment. Second, no serious person believes Pres Biden will accomplish anything other than talk.

It's about fornicating time!

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Navy has exonerated 256 Black sailors who were found to be unjustly punished in 1944 following a horrific port explosion that killed hundreds of service members and exposed racist double standards among the then-segregated ranks. On July 17, 1944, munitions being loaded onto a cargo ship detonated, causing secondary blasts that ignited 5,000 tons (4,535 metric tonnes) of explosives at Port Chicago naval weapons station near San Francisco. The explosion killed 320 sailors and civilians, nearly 75% of whom were Black, and injured another 400 personnel. Surviving Black sailors had to pick up the human remains and clear the blast site while white officers were granted leave to recuperate. The pier was a critical ammunition supply site for forces in the Pacific during World War II, and the job of loading those ships was left primarily to Black enlisted sailors overseen by white officers.*** https://apnews.com/article/navy-black-sailors-port-explosion-wwii-racism-df009fd75325758b15294e2fdad93729

Les meilleures sportives (1/3) : les clubs et équipes nationales

Le sport féminin possède une grande histoire. Une occasion de glorifier les meilleures sportives. Donc, la série d’articles sur "les meilleures sportives” présente un double objectif. D’abord, mettre en valeur de grandes stars et ensuite parler de leur discipline (souvent méconnue du grand public). Dans cette sélection complètement subjective, on relatera aussi les performances des athlètes du passé et présent. Dans le cadre du premier épisode, on se concentre sur les clubs et équipes nationales qui ont marqué les esprits.  L'Olympique Lyonnais (Football)  La section féminine de l'Olympique Lyonnais est la référence du football féminin. C'est logique que les meilleures sportives viennent de ce club. (Source Photo : Getty Images) L’un des plus grands noms du football féminin avec un palmarès long comme le bras : l’Olympique Lyonnais. Déjà président de la section masculine depuis 1989, Jean-Michel Aulas dirige l'équipe féminine depuis 2004. Cet investissement autour de la section féminine s’avère une véritable mine d’or en termes de visibilité sur et en dehors des terrains. Longtemps mis en retrait, le football féminin reçoit un sacré coup de projecteur grâce à des performances notables. On peut mentionner la demi-finale de l���équipe de France au mondial en Allemagne mais surtout la première victoire en Ligue des Champions de l'OL, en 2011. Aujourd’hui, l’OL est un mastodonte en France avec 14 titres et 9 coupe de France, en Europe, elles écrasent tout sur leur passage. Dernièrement, Les Lyonnaises rentrent dans le patrimoine du football français avec une 7e Ligues des Champions contre Wolfsbourg (3-1). Historique ! Sans une équipe, pas de victoires. L’hégémonie lyonnaise dure à l’aide de joueuses d’exception qui ont traversé le temps. Par exemple, on doit citer la grande gardienne Sarah Bouhaddi qui joue sous le maillot rhodanien depuis plus d’une décennie. La capitaine et l’une meilleure défenseuse du monde Wendie Renard est la plus captée du club (336). Par ailleurs, dans l’ADN du club, on peut ajouter Louisa Necib, Eugénie Le Sommer, Camille Abily, Élodie Thomis ou encore Lotta Schelin. Aujourd’hui, la relève emmenée notamment par Ada Hergerberg continue de gagner comme leurs aînées. Qui ne saute pas n’est pas Lyonnaise !  RC Cannes (Volley-ball)  Les Cannoises ont une stature indélébile dans le volley féminin. Pour cause, c’est le seul club français à avoir gagné deux coupes européennes (2002 et 2003). Représentant au niveau continental, le RC Cannes impose sa domination sur la scène nationale. Sur les 21 championnats remportés dans son histoire, Cannes enregistre 18 titres d’affilée entre 1997 et 2015. En 2018, l’équipe de Riccardo Marchesi s’offre une coupe de France, la 20e pour le club, contre Béziers (3-1). L’identité et l’empreinte du club sont glorifiés par une joueuse emblématique qui a passé presque toute sa carrière professionnelle à Cannes : Victoria Ravva.  Dans cette sélection des meilleures sportives en club, le RC Cannes a laissé une véritable empreinte dans le volley féminin en Europe et en France. (Source Photo : Pierre Vieuille) De 1996 à 2015, Ravva est devenue une pièce maîtresse pour amasser des titres. Au poste central avec le brassard de capitaine, la droitière mène son équipe à de nombreuses victoires en faisant partie des meilleures joueuses du monde de l’époque. En conséquence, son engagement sportif lui permet d’être une personnalité très aimée dans la ville cannoise. Désormais, la Géorgienne s’est reconvertie comme dirigeante dans le club de son cœur. À l’instar de Ravva, le RC Cannes a vu passer des joueuses de renom pour garnir l’armoire à trophées. On peut notamment mentionner Karine Salinas, Ju-Lan Mao, Andrea Negru ou encore Michaela Jelínková. Néanmoins, il ne faut surtout pas oublier l’implication de l’entraîneur chinois, Yan Fang, qui est aussi un acteur important de cette longue dynastie. Tango Bourges Basket (Basket)  Le Tango Bourges à l'œuvre pour obtenir une nouvelle Coupe de France contre Charleville Mézières (67-58) en mai dernier. (Source Photo : Maxppp - Pierrick Delobelle) Bien que l’US Valenciennes (aujourd’hui Saint-Amand Hainaut Basket) ait fait les beaux jours du basket français, le Tango Bourges sera mis à l’honneur. Née dans les années 70 au sein du Cercle de Jean-Macé, l’équipe féminine de basket s’est construite en un temps record pour devenir une référence historique dans l’histoire du sport féminin. De la National 4 en 1987, les Berruyers gravissent les échelons pour finalement jouer et perdurer en première division (Nationale féminine 1A) à partir de 1990. Afin de permettre au club de rivaliser avec les meilleures équipes, le président Pierre Fosset recrute l’entraîneur russe Vadim Kapranov. Un évènement marquant qui amènera Bourges au sommet de l'Olympe.  L’histoire glorieuse des Tango débute de manière sensationnelle par un titre de championne de France et une victoire européenne dans la Coupe Rochetti en 1995. La formation composée d’internationales, comme Yannick Souvré ou Odile Santaniello, commence à dominer son championnat domestique et rentre dans le cercle fermé de l’élite. Jusqu’en 2001, l’équipe du Cher devient consécutivement 5 fois championne de France. Demi-finaliste en 96, Bourges soulève, l’année suivante, la prestigieuse Euroligue en battant largement Wuppertal Wings (71-52) grâce notamment aux 24 points d’Isabelle Fijalkowski. Sous l’influence de Kapronov, les Françaises gagnent un second sacre européen lors de l’édition jouée à domicile contre Getafe (76-64). La domination a été triomphante et a perduré avec Céline Dumerc et Valérie Garnier. Le palmarès en dit long : 14 championnats de France, 11 Coupes de France, 3 Euroligues et 1 EuroCoupe.  Canada (Hockey sur Glace)  Sur la patinoire, les femmes ont toujours eu l'occasion de jouer au hockey depuis la fin du 19e siècle. Cependant, cette pratique très physique et rugueuse s'oriente plus vers les capacités de jeu masculines comme on le voit encore aujourd'hui. En conséquence, elles sont peu nombreuses à s'exercer avec une crosse pour frapper le palet. Fort heureusement, la discipline se popularise dans les années 90 en faveur de la gente féminine. On crée plusieurs équipes dans diverses ligues professionnelles notamment dans les pays nord-américains. D'ailleurs, l'équipe nationale canadienne fait office d'épouvantail sur les patinoires du monde entier.  En concurrence ardue avec les États-Unis, le Canada marque la discipline avec une équipe féminine comme masculine. Pour cause, les Canadiennes alignent les victoires sans interruption. Avec 10 titres mondiaux et 4 victoires olympiques, elles domptent les autres nations sans la moindre adversité, à l'exception des Étasuniennes qui se classent premières du classement IIHF. Depuis la création, le Canada tutoie les étoiles en s'aidant de joueuses emblématiques hors du commun. Telles des anomalies, certaines hockeyeuses ont joué dans des ligues masculines. Hayley Wickenheiser, la plus captée (276) et meilleure buteur de la sélection (379 buts), a eu l’honneur de jouer dans cet environnement. À l’instar de l’attaquante, les gardiennes Manon Rhéaume, Charline Labonté ont pu prouver leur talent contre les hommes.  Les meilleures sportives en équipe nationale sont aussi canadiennes quand elles jouent au hockey. (Source Photo : Hockey Canada) Norvège (Handball)  Dans ce sport germanique, les Norvègiennes font partie des meilleures sportives au monde. Malgré leur défaite lors du match de la 3e place contre la Russie (33-28) au mondial 2019, la Norvège écrit leur histoire à différentes époques. De la victoire au championnat du monde 1986 au sacre européen de 2016, l’équipe nationale de la Norges Håndballforbund fait l’étalage de sa longévité au haut niveau. Avec les compétences des sélectionneurs tels que Sven Tore Jacobsen, Marit Breivik ou encore Thorir Hergeirsson, elles amassent 2 or olympiques, 3 sacres mondiaux et 7 victoires continentales.  En handball, la grandeur de la Norvège a perduré grâce aux influences de Kjersti Grini, Cecilie Leganger, Gro Hammerseng-Edin ou même Heidi Løke. Finalement, c'est en toute légitime qu’on trouve cette nation dans la cour des grandes du handball féminin. Les handballeuses norvégiennes ont montré leur appartenance à l'élite lors du Mondial au Japon. (Source Photo : Média365) Égypte (Squash)  Joué dans un terrain de jeu entouré entre quatre murs, le squash se démarque en raison de la possibilité d’avoir des contacts entre deux adversaires durant un échange. D’ailleurs, cette discipline est exigeante puisque l’on dépense beaucoup d’énergie et sollicite tout le corps. Promis à la classe aisée ou même à l'aristocrate, le cousin du tennis, s’est démocratisé au fur et à mesure. Cette mondialisation de la discipline a permis de mettre en lumière la surpuissance des femmes pharaons. Après la domination néo-zélandaise et australienne, l’hégémonie actuelle est entretenue par l’armada égyptienne. Les Égyptiennes font la loi au squash féminin à l'image de Raneem El Welily (premier plan) et de Nour El Sherbini. (Source Photo : PSA World Tour) L’Égypte, avec ses meilleures sportives, fait régner sa loi au squash féminin au détriment des autres nations. En effet, le pays a remporté 3 titres mondiaux par équipe sur les 4 dernières éditions. Sur la terre des pharaons, les prodiges du squash tombent à foison et campent au sommet du classement mondial. Nour El Sherbini, 24 ans, est la reine de la discipline avec un palmarès édifiant : 20 titres majeurs dont 4 sacres mondiaux. D'ailleurs, elle se bat pour garder son leadership face à ses compatriotes telles que Noran Goran, Raneem El Welily (retraitée) ou encore Nour El Tayeb. Néanmoins, leur domination s’est effritée suite à l’exploit de Camille Serme lors du Tournoi des champions 2020 à New York.  C’est la fin de cette première partie de cette série consacrée aux meilleures sportives. La Nouvelle Zélande au rugby, le Brésil au volley ou encore le Lynx de Minnesota au basket ?

Capitão William Kidd

Levado para o mar ainda criança, emigrou para a América do Norte, residindo em Nova Iorque em 1690.

Possuiu o próprio navio mercante e em 1689 distinguiu-se como capitão a serviço da Inglaterra contra a França nas Índias Ocidentais Francesas. Enriqueceu rapidamente, sendo bem casado com uma viúva inglesa, Sarah Oort, que possuía duas propriedades herdadas dos dois maridos anteriores a ele. Foi introduzido na política e conheceu o coronel Benjamim Fletcher, Governador de Nova Iorque, conhecido pelos envolvimentos comerciais com piratas. Para terminar com a pirataria na costa, o rei nomeou como governador a Lord Bellmont. Em 1695 o capitão Kidd estava em Londres com o seu navio, o "Antigua".

Em Nova Iorque, Robert Livingston propôs-lhe o negócio de capturar os piratas e acabar com os saques. Lorde Bellmont, que estava em sua residência de Londres, recebeu Kidd como convidado, apresentando-o a pessoas influentes que poderiam financiar a campanha. Eles entraram em contato com um amigo próximo do rei, Sir John Sommers, o duque e Chanceler de Shresbury, o Secretário de Estado Sir Edward Russell, Lorde de Oxford, e o Conde Rommey. Os bens capturados seriam divididos: 10% para a Coroa, 60% para os financiadores do governador de Nova Yorque (Bellmont), permanecendo 15% para Livingston e Kidd e 15% para a tripulação. Assim acertados, foi entregue a Kidd uma carta de corso que o autorizava a capturar bens que pertencem aos inimigos franceses na costa de Madagascar. A coroa também lhe recomendou a missão de capturar piratas, navios e bens com uma advertência de não aborrecer amigos e aliados da Inglaterra.

William Kidd tentou abandonar a companhia no começo mas foi pressionado por seus mais influentes financiadores. Teve que vender o "Antigua" para integralizar a sua parte nas despesas da campanha e adquiriu o navio "The Adventure Galley". Levaram na tripulação homens com famílias como precaução para que eles não tivessem a tentação de se dedicar à pirataria.

O primeiro incidente infeliz aconteceu quando se omitiram a cumprimentar um navio da Marinha Inglesa, preceito obrigatório a todos os navios que entravam e saíam do porto. A fragata abriu fogo contra o navio de Kidd e, com desrespeito os homens do "The Adventure Galley" mostraram as suas nádegas para a fragata. Como consequência, o navio de Kidd teve a sua tripulação trocada por marujos à margem da lei.

Kidd retornou a Nova Iorque e recrutou o restante da tripulação entre homens em situação desesperada. Após um ano no mar não tinha conseguido uma só presa e a campanha que havia começado a especular, começou a ser dedicada à pirataria. Em abril de 1697 ancorou no mar Vermelho à espera que passasse algum navio francês ou pirata. Depois de uma espera de três semanas, atacaram um navio mercantil islâmico. O "Espectro", navio sob o comando do capitão Edward Barlow, que fazia a escolta à frota mercante, estava com o pavilhão inglês e atirou na "The Adventure Galley", rechaçando o ataque. Quando Barlow chegou a Karwar em 14 de outubro, descreveu Willian Kidd em seu relatório como tendo se transformado em um pirata.

Em novembro Kidd teve que ameaçar a sua tripulação para evitar um motim. Um navio mercante surgiu com bandeira inglesa e os piratas quiseram abordá-lo. Em um confronto com William Moore, que era o chefe de artilheiros no navio, Kidd o ofendeu dizendo que parecia um "cão sarnento", tendo Moore respondido que ele era um cão sarnento porque o Capitão o tinha deixado assim. Neste momento, muito irado, Kidd pegou uma balde madeira e bateu-lhe na cabeça, vindo Moore a falecer no dia seguinte. No relatório que posteriormente viria a instruir o julgamento de Kidd, ficou com título de "assassinato - cão sarnento". O primeiro saque só ocorreu dois anos depois: era o "Maiden" um navio árabe que foi renomeado como "Novembro". Kidd acreditou que tinha trabalhado dentro da lei porque o capitão holandês tinha mostrado passagens francesas. Após o Natal de 1697 capturaram um navio árabe que tinha partido da costa do Malabar e um navio português com mercadorias das Índias Orientais. No dia 30 de janeiro de 1698 capturou o galeão "Quedagh Merchant" capitaneado por um inglês chamado Wright. Com bandeira francesa depois de abordada a presa lhes mostrou passagens francesas. Na verdade William Kidd içou a bandeira francesa para simular ser amigo de franceses e, assim, se o outro navio fosse francês poderia ser confiscado com autorização da coroa inglesa, que estava em guerra com a França. Mas o capitão do Quedagh Merchant, embora não sendo francês, também içou uma bandeira da França para evitar confrontos. Kidd enviou um pirata que falava francês e o capitão do Quedagh Merchant forneceu passes falsificados de França. Deste modo, Kidd anunciou o confisco, usurpando todas as riquezas, inclusive o próprio navio Quedagh Merchant, nada obstante ter o seu capitão explicado que não era francês. Foram então para a ilha Sant Marie onde encontraram um navio pirata. Este último poderia ser tomado pelo Capitão Kidd legitimamente, por ser tratar de um navio pirata. No entanto, Kidd se mancomunou com o pirata, ocasião em que a maioria de tripulação desertou, restando o capitão W. Kidd com apenas 13 tripulantes. Kidd sabia que estava sendo procurado e que poderia ser preso quando chegasse em Nova York, porquanto, enterrou vários tesouros, caso fosse capturado.

A tripulação recusou-se devolver o navio quando foi descoberta a sua verdadeira identidade. Treze membros da tripulação desertaram em Culliford, incluído Robert Bradinham e Joseph Palmer, que testemunharam contra Kidd na tentativa de salvarem-se. A tripulação queimou o "Novembro" e eles prenderam Kidd em seu camarote. Depois da rendição de Kidd, esvaziaram o "The Adventure Galley" que apresentava entradas perigosas de água. Permaneceram no "Quedagh Merchant", recrutaram alguns novos tripulantes e voltaram para casa com o saque. Entretanto, uma frota inglesa da Companhia Britânica das Índias Orientais tinha sido enviada para a sua captura. O perdão que foi oferecido a todos os piratas, excluía a Kidd e outros dois. Depois de três anos no mar, Bellmont voltou com sua esposa e as filhas, e o governador foi encarcerado na prisão de Stone. Em março de 1701 compareceu diante da Câmara dos Comuns, que recomendou que fosse levado ao Tribunal do Almirantado em 8 de maio. Não foi permitido a ninguém declarar-se a favor deles. A primeira sentença recebida foi a de culpado pelo assassinato de William Moore. Kidd, na segunda foi condenado por pirataria. Foi condenado à morte por enforcamento. No momento do enforcamento, a corda rompeu e Kidd continuou vivo. Em nova tentativa, o mesmo morreu. Antes de morrer, Kidd insistia em dizer que se ele morresse ninguém acharia os seus tesouros. O seu corpo foi mergulhado em alcatrão e pendurado à beira do rio Tâmisa, como advertência aos piratas

[the-necessary-unnecessary]

A list of all the films, series and web series that have been recommended as hidden must sees during isolation and beyond. 

Note: I have divided them into films with happy endings or not, series that haven’t finished so the exact ending is unknown I have put an asterisk (*) next to

Note 2: the descriptions are a mixture of my own and of the reviews I was sent by anons

She gets the girl

A Date For Mad Mary, 2016 (needs a date for a wedding, more about her complicated reconnecting with friends after prison but romance is cute)

Almost Adults, 2016 (centers around the broader themes of growing up and friendship but one of them is a giant gay. There is a happy ending for both the gay one and the straight one, gotta give the straights some food because they so rarely get fed)

Anne+, 2018* (Dutch webseries with fresh and new vibes with a great mid-twenties actress about mid-twenties gay lives. Everyone in it is LGBTQ+ yet nothing about it is LGBTQ+, it’s all just treated as natural and normal)

Bound, 1996 (you can't beat the lesbian noir classic which should one day be inducted into the lesbian hall of fame)

But I’m A Cheerleader, 1999 (camp and a lot of fun despite the very serious themes, starring Natasha Lyonne- one of the gayest straights out there)

Carmilla, 2014-16 (webseries based on the groundbreaking 19th century book. Some great chemistry and a lot of breaking of the fourth wall)

Carol, 2015 (Cate Blanchett movie based on the book The Price of Salt which caused issue when it was realised in 1952 because it gave its lovers a open ended happy ending)

Couple-Ish, 2015-16 (cute Canadian web series, bit on the nose but important gay, bi and enby rep)

Desert Hearts, 1985 (the looks, the emotions, the gorgeousness of them both, the chemistry, oh god it was so good. Vivian Bell deserves all the orgasms)

Elisa Y Marcela, 2019 (A Spanish film based on the true story of two women who got married with one of them pretending to be a man in 1901. A tearjerker but ultimately their love is stronger than the adversaries they face)

Entre Nous, 1983 (a French 1983 film which has Jews & Nazi's but doesn't end in complete horror. There are straights who think it’s a friendship but we know better)

Fingersmith, 2005 (BBC drama based on a book by Sarah Waters)

Fried Green Tomatoes, 1991 (based on a more obvious book, they’re sold as best friends but if you know you know)

Fucking Åmål, 1998 (one of the first films aimed at teenagers about two girls falling in love and getting together.)

Getrieben, 2018 (they're ex's and share a dog and then maybe they're not so ex anymore)

I Can't Think Straight, 2008 (cute romantic comedy adapted from a novel about a London-based Jordanian of Palestinian descent preparing for a wedding before events take a gay turn)

If These Walls Could Talk 2, 2000 (some happy and some sad endings in this film which portrays three generations of lesbian storylines from the same house)

Imagine Me and You, 2004 (not my fav but a classic and has Queen Cersei playing a wlw)

Kyss Mig, 2011 (heart eyes, a lovely film, does have maybe a bit too much man in it but he's gone when we get to the nitty gritty)

Our Love Story, 2016 (Korean, subtle nuanced relationship story)

Rosebud, 1996 (a channel 4 short with Julie Graham and questionable fashion choices. Who needs words when you can have such tantalising and vivid visuals? Teeny bit of man but it's fitting in the particular setting and its very fleeting, although admittedly nude)

Saving Face, 2004 (romantic comedy which had less of an impact that Imagine Me and You due to lesser known actors and probably partly to do with race- the main characters are Chinese-American. But it's a gorgeous movie that has a lot more than just rom com elements. The Half Of It is by the same director.

Sjukt Oklar, 2018* (very Swedish, very lesbian, very very funny)

Supervoksen, 2006 (Danish teenage coming of age type thing)

The Carmilla Movie, 2017 (based on the webseries but still accessible to those that haven’t watched it. Quite sweet and the actresses seem very comfortable with each other. Plus there is a great sex scene in it where the muscles on one of the girl’s back are especially sexy)

The World Unseen, 2007 (period film during South Africa's apartheid era with great chemistry)

The Handmaiden, 2016 (extremely nsfw but its got some incredibly powerful meaning to it especially the final sex scene with the bells. It's also incredibly shot and the sex scenes were done very sensitively on set with only women around and the director even in another room.)

Thelma, 2017 (a supernatural thriller about a girl starting college who suddenly starts getting seizures but they don’t know why and she has a female love interest)

Tipping The Velvet, 2002 (BBC series, also has a Victorian era strap on in it and Keeley Hawes, what's not to love?)

When Night is Falling, 1995 (An uptight and conservative woman, working as a literacy professor, finds herself attracted to a free-spirited, liberal woman who works at a local carnival. It’s got quite a lot of a boyfriend in it so its not for everyone.)

Yes or No, 2010 (literally a ‘and they were roommates’ movie as well as an enemies to lovers plot)

Zwischen Sommer Und Herbst, 2018 (coming of age elements, does have a man involved especially at the beginning, who happened to be the brother of one of the girls, but overall it was okay, no lesbians die and it doesn't end in abject misery)

She doesn’t get the girl but neither does the trope

Aimée and Jaguar, 1999 (based on a true story. Beautiful but painful, it’s a Jew falling for a German housewife in Nazi Germany, hence its sad as hell ending)

Bloomington, 2010 (coming of age, teacher student thing which walks that line relatively well without being too icky)

Freeheld, 2015 (an extremely powerful and important story to tell)

Gia, 1998 (Angelina Jolie gets it on with Elizabeth Mitchell in a moving film about model and lesbian Gia Carangi)

Kontrola, 2019* (a masterpiece of a mini web series with a great soundtrack, aesthetic and storyline. Season 2 may present a better future for them)

Mädchen in Uniform, 1931 (German cult classic almost entirely produced by women. Sexual awakening/teenage coming out of her shell stuff, there is also a 1958 redo which is okay. She doesn’t get the girl but it’s still a positive portrayal of sexuality where the object of desire isn't disgusted or weirded out by it)

My Summer of Love, 2004 (At first glance a coming of age movie, but has a lot of phycological elements too. Emily Blunt with a girl, not happy but no lesbians die)

Portrait of a Lady on Fire, 2019 (spell-bounding french film with amazing rawness and visuals. One of my best cinematographic experiences ever)

Reaching for the Moon, 2017 (the love story of the poet Elizabeth Bishop and the architect Soares in the 60s)

Snapshots, 2018 (sad ending but great chemistry with no closed mouthed straight girl kisses)

Summertime, 2015 (French lesbian movie- dare I say more? Sad but no deaths)

The Hunger, 1983 (a gothic cult classic, vampires, its got David Bowie, Susan Sarandon and Catherine Deneuve in it)

The Miseducation of Cameron Post, 2018 (she doesn’t get the girl because there is no girl, but she does begin to find and accept herself. Based on a highly recommendable book by the same name)

Viola di Mare, 2009 (depressing as hell but beautiful to look and the couple have some good chemistry)

Über 40 interessierte Starnbergerinnen und Starnberger beteiligten sich am digitalen Bürgerge- spräch zu "See and the City" am Mittwoch, 26.01.2022. Erster Bürgermeister Patrick Janik, seine Stellvertreterinnen Angelika Kammerl und Christiane Falk sowie das städtische Projektteam standen für alle Fragen rund um die temporäre Umgestaltung am Bahnhofplatz zur Verfügung.

Die Projektleiterinnen Sylvie Pfeifer und Sarah Buckel machten in ihrem Vortrag deutlich, dass der Verkehr im Moment über die Gestaltung des Straßenraums am Bahnhofplatz bestimmt. Mit der temporären Neuverteilung der Flächen möchte die Stadt Starnberg den Bereich in einen lebenswerteren Straßenraum für Fußgänger und Radfahrer verwandeln, auf dem das gesellschaftliche Leben Einzug halten kann. "Unter dem Motto "See and the City" soll der Bahnhofplatz zwischen Mai und Oktober 2022 zu einem Ort werden, in dem die Bürgerinnen und Bürger sich gerne aufhalten und den nötigen Freiraum bekommen", erläuterte Projektleiterin Sylvie Pfeifer.

Zum einen hat die Stadtverwaltung auf dem Areal zwischen Bahnhofstraße/Einmündung Bahnhofplatz bis zum Kreisverkehr an der Kaiser-Wilhelm-Straße einen Sommer voller Veranstaltungen geplant. Zum anderen geht es um einen Praxistest für die Zukunft. Dabei sollen Erkenntnisse gewon- nen werden, was in diesem wichtigen Verbindungsraum zwischen Stadt und See funktioniert, wie Flächen anders gestaltet und interpretiert werden können. Hier waren die Bürgerinnen und Bürger gefragt, ihre Ideen und Anregungen einzubringen. "Die Beteiligung der Starnbergerinnen und Starnberger ist für uns enorm wichtig, denn bei "See and the City" stehen sie im Mittelpunkt. Es geht darum, den Straßenraum so zu gestalten, dass er nicht nur für Autos da ist, sondern vor allem auch für die Bürgerinnen und Bürger Starnbergs", betonte Projektleiterin Sarah Buckel.

Bei der Diskussion mit der Bürgerschaft war die Begeisterung für das Projekt schon deutlich spürbar und es gab eine Vielzahl an Ideen und Vorschlägen. Schülerinnen und Schüler vom Gymnasium Starnberg möchten beispielsweise Sprühschablonen und Tape-Art nutzen, um bunte Aufenthaltsflächen rund um das Motto Wasser und See zu gestalten. Dabei sind Fischschwärme in allen Farben, Formen und Größen denkbar. Auch eine Kooperation mit Studierenden ist hier angedacht, um weitere Kunstaktionen umzusetzen. Weiterhin wurden Lichtinstallationen und eine dreidimensionale Gestaltung des Straßenraumes mit Fischernetzen, Fähnchen oder Girlanden vorgeschlagen. Zudem ist die Einrichtung von sogenannten "Schanigärten" für die Gastronomie im Gespräch, um eine gemütliche Atmosphäre zu schaffen. Geschäftsleute und Gastronomen am Bahnhofplatz können sich jederzeit gerne einbringen, um den Raum vor ihrem Betrieb individuell zu gestalten. Ei- ne weitere Idee war, die Leerstände am Bahnhofareal durch Pop-Up-Aktionen im Projektzeitraum zu beleben. Bei allen Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten legt die Stadt außerdem großen Wert auf die The- men Inklusion und Barrierefreiheit. Der Starnberger Inklusionsbeirat wurde bereits beteiligt und soll das Projekt weiter begleiten.

Derzeit detailliert die Stadtverwaltung das neue Verkehrskonzept für die Zeit der Umgestaltung. Der Bahnhofplatz soll weiterhin befahrbar bleiben, allerdings mit einer reduzierten Geschwindigkeit, idealerweise Tempo 20. Durch Pflanzkübel, künstlerische Gestaltung und weniger Parkflächen soll es mehr Bereiche für Fußgänger zum Flanieren und Verweilen geben. In diesem Zusammenhang möchte sich auch der Arbeitskreis Verkehr der STAgenda21 einbringen.

Am Ende des Bürgerdialogs informierten die Projektleiterinnen über die nächsten Schritte. Die Bürgerideen werden nun in die weiteren Planungen aufgenommen und konkretisiert. Dazu sind auch Abstimmungstermine mit den Ideengebern geplant. Interessierte können sich jederzeit an das Organisationsteam wenden und ihre Anregungen einbringen. Am besten per E-Mail an see-and-the-city@starnberg.de. 

Weitere Informationen gibt es auch unter www.see-and-the-city.de. Aktuell ist das Eröffnungsfest von "See and the City" für den 14. Mai 2022 geplant. Spätestens am 13. Mai 2022 soll die gemeinsame künstlerische Gestaltung der Flächen erfolgen.

(Anm. v. dr. thosch: Ich freue mich schon auf die Wirkung, wenn der Bahnhofsvorplatz wenigstens temporär mal sich einem beruhigten "Stadtzentrum” annähert und sozusagen zu eine Art Nebenzentrum der Stadt Starnberg wird.)

Les meilleures sportives (1/3) : les clubs et équipes nationales

Le sport féminin possède une grande histoire. Une occasion de glorifier les meilleures sportives. Donc, la série d’articles sur "les meilleures sportives” présente un double objectif. D’abord, mettre en valeur de grandes stars et ensuite parler de leur discipline (souvent méconnue du grand public). Dans cette sélection complètement subjective, on relatera aussi les performances des athlètes du passé et présent. Dans le cadre du premier épisode, on se concentre sur les clubs et équipes nationales qui ont marqué les esprits.  L'Olympique Lyonnais (Football)  La section féminine de l'Olympique Lyonnais est la référence du football féminin. C'est logique que les meilleures sportives viennent de ce club. (Source Photo : Getty Images) L’un des plus grands noms du football féminin avec un palmarès long comme le bras : l’Olympique Lyonnais. Déjà président de la section masculine depuis 1989, Jean-Michel Aulas dirige l'équipe féminine depuis 2004. Cet investissement autour de la section féminine s’avère une véritable mine d’or en termes de visibilité sur et en dehors des terrains. Longtemps mis en retrait, le football féminin reçoit un sacré coup de projecteur grâce à des performances notables. On peut mentionner la demi-finale de l’équipe de France au mondial en Allemagne mais surtout la première victoire en Ligue des Champions de l'OL, en 2011. Aujourd’hui, l’OL est un mastodonte en France avec 14 titres et 9 coupe de France, en Europe, elles écrasent tout sur leur passage. Dernièrement, Les Lyonnaises rentrent dans le patrimoine du football français avec une 7e Ligues des Champions contre Wolfsbourg (3-1). Historique ! Sans une équipe, pas de victoires. L’hégémonie lyonnaise dure à l’aide de joueuses d’exception qui ont traversé le temps. Par exemple, on doit citer la grande gardienne Sarah Bouhaddi qui joue sous le maillot rhodanien depuis plus d’une décennie. La capitaine et l’une meilleure défenseuse du monde Wendie Renard est la plus captée du club (336). Par ailleurs, dans l’ADN du club, on peut ajouter Louisa Necib, Eugénie Le Sommer, Camille Abily, Élodie Thomis ou encore Lotta Schelin. Aujourd’hui, la relève emmenée notamment par Ada Hergerberg continue de gagner comme leurs aînées. Qui ne saute pas n’est pas Lyonnaise !  RC Cannes (Volley-ball)  Les Cannoises ont une stature indélébile dans le volley féminin. Pour cause, c’est le seul club français à avoir gagné deux coupes européennes (2002 et 2003). Représentant au niveau continental, le RC Cannes impose sa domination sur la scène nationale. Sur les 21 championnats remportés dans son histoire, Cannes enregistre 18 titres d’affilée entre 1997 et 2015. En 2018, l’équipe de Riccardo Marchesi s’offre une coupe de France, la 20e pour le club, contre Béziers (3-1). L’identité et l’empreinte du club sont glorifiés par une joueuse emblématique qui a passé presque toute sa carrière professionnelle à Cannes : Victoria Ravva.  Dans cette sélection des meilleures sportives en club, le RC Cannes a laissé une véritable empreinte dans le volley féminin en Europe et en France. (Source Photo : Pierre Vieuille) De 1996 à 2015, Ravva est devenue une pièce maîtresse pour amasser des titres. Au poste central avec le brassard de capitaine, la droitière mène son équipe à de nombreuses victoires en faisant partie des meilleures joueuses du monde de l’époque. En conséquence, son engagement sportif lui permet d’être une personnalité très aimée dans la ville cannoise. Désormais, la Géorgienne s’est reconvertie comme dirigeante dans le club de son cœur. À l’instar de Ravva, le RC Cannes a vu passer des joueuses de renom pour garnir l’armoire à trophées. On peut notamment mentionner Karine Salinas, Ju-Lan Mao, Andrea Negru ou encore Michaela Jelínková. Néanmoins, il ne faut surtout pas oublier l’implication de l’entraîneur chinois, Yan Fang, qui est aussi un acteur important de cette longue dynastie. Tango Bourges Basket (Basket)  Le Tango Bourges à l'œuvre pour obtenir une nouvelle Coupe de France contre Charleville Mézières (67-58) en mai dernier. (Source Photo : Maxppp - Pierrick Delobelle) Bien que l’US Valenciennes (aujourd’hui Saint-Amand Hainaut Basket) ait fait les beaux jours du basket français, le Tango Bourges sera mis à l’honneur. Née dans les années 70 au sein du Cercle de Jean-Macé, l’équipe féminine de basket s’est construite en un temps record pour devenir une référence historique dans l’histoire du sport féminin. De la National 4 en 1987, les Berruyers gravissent les échelons pour finalement jouer et perdurer en première division (Nationale féminine 1A) à partir de 1990. Afin de permettre au club de rivaliser avec les meilleures équipes, le président Pierre Fosset recrute l’entraîneur russe Vadim Kapranov. Un évènement marquant qui amènera Bourges au sommet de l'Olympe.  L’histoire glorieuse des Tango débute de manière sensationnelle par un titre de championne de France et une victoire européenne dans la Coupe Rochetti en 1995. La formation composée d’internationales, comme Yannick Souvré ou Odile Santaniello, commence à dominer son championnat domestique et rentre dans le cercle fermé de l’élite. Jusqu’en 2001, l’équipe du Cher devient consécutivement 5 fois championne de France. Demi-finaliste en 96, Bourges soulève, l’année suivante, la prestigieuse Euroligue en battant largement Wuppertal Wings (71-52) grâce notamment aux 24 points d’Isabelle Fijalkowski. Sous l’influence de Kapronov, les Françaises gagnent un second sacre européen lors de l’édition jouée à domicile contre Getafe (76-64). La domination a été triomphante et a perduré avec Céline Dumerc et Valérie Garnier. Le palmarès en dit long : 14 championnats de France, 11 Coupes de France, 3 Euroligues et 1 EuroCoupe.  Canada (Hockey sur Glace)  Sur la patinoire, les femmes ont toujours eu l'occasion de jouer au hockey depuis la fin du 19e siècle. Cependant, cette pratique très physique et rugueuse s'oriente plus vers les capacités de jeu masculines comme on le voit encore aujourd'hui. En conséquence, elles sont peu nombreuses à s'exercer avec une crosse pour frapper le palet. Fort heureusement, la discipline se popularise dans les années 90 en faveur de la gente féminine. On crée plusieurs équipes dans diverses ligues professionnelles notamment dans les pays nord-américains. D'ailleurs, l'équipe nationale canadienne fait office d'épouvantail sur les patinoires du monde entier.  En concurrence ardue avec les États-Unis, le Canada marque la discipline avec une équipe féminine comme masculine. Pour cause, les Canadiennes alignent les victoires sans interruption. Avec 10 titres mondiaux et 4 victoires olympiques, elles domptent les autres nations sans la moindre adversité, à l'exception des Étasuniennes qui se classent premières du classement IIHF. Depuis la création, le Canada tutoie les étoiles en s'aidant de joueuses emblématiques hors du commun. Telles des anomalies, certaines hockeyeuses ont joué dans des ligues masculines. Hayley Wickenheiser, la plus captée (276) et meilleure buteur de la sélection (379 buts), a eu l’honneur de jouer dans cet environnement. À l’instar de l’attaquante, les gardiennes Manon Rhéaume, Charline Labonté ont pu prouver leur talent contre les hommes.  Les meilleures sportives en équipe nationale sont aussi canadiennes quand elles jouent au hockey. (Source Photo : Hockey Canada) Norvège (Handball)  Dans ce sport germanique, les Norvègiennes font partie des meilleures sportives au monde. Malgré leur défaite lors du match de la 3e place contre la Russie (33-28) au mondial 2019, la Norvège écrit leur histoire à différentes époques. De la victoire au championnat du monde 1986 au sacre européen de 2016, l’équipe nationale de la Norges Håndballforbund fait l’étalage de sa longévité au haut niveau. Avec les compétences des sélectionneurs tels que Sven Tore Jacobsen, Marit Breivik ou encore Thorir Hergeirsson, elles amassent 2 or olympiques, 3 sacres mondiaux et 7 victoires continentales.  En handball, la grandeur de la Norvège a perduré grâce aux influences de Kjersti Grini, Cecilie Leganger, Gro Hammerseng-Edin ou même Heidi Løke. Finalement, c'est en toute légitime qu’on trouve cette nation dans la cour des grandes du handball féminin. Les handballeuses norvégiennes ont montré leur appartenance à l'élite lors du Mondial au Japon. (Source Photo : Média365) Égypte (Squash)  Joué dans un terrain de jeu entouré entre quatre murs, le squash se démarque en raison de la possibilité d’avoir des contacts entre deux adversaires durant un échange. D’ailleurs, cette discipline est exigeante puisque l’on dépense beaucoup d’énergie et sollicite tout le corps. Promis à la classe aisée ou même à l'aristocrate, le cousin du tennis, s’est démocratisé au fur et à mesure. Cette mondialisation de la discipline a permis de mettre en lumière la surpuissance des femmes pharaons. Après la domination néo-zélandaise et australienne, l’hégémonie actuelle est entretenue par l’armada égyptienne. Les Égyptiennes font la loi au squash féminin à l'image de Raneem El Welily (premier plan) et de Nour El Sherbini. (Source Photo : PSA World Tour) L’Égypte, avec ses meilleures sportives, fait régner sa loi au squash féminin au détriment des autres nations. En effet, le pays a remporté 3 titres mondiaux par équipe sur les 4 dernières éditions. Sur la terre des pharaons, les prodiges du squash tombent à foison et campent au sommet du classement mondial. Nour El Sherbini, 24 ans, est la reine de la discipline avec un palmarès édifiant : 20 titres majeurs dont 4 sacres mondiaux. D'ailleurs, elle se bat pour garder son leadership face à ses compatriotes telles que Noran Goran, Raneem El Welily (retraitée) ou encore Nour El Tayeb. Néanmoins, leur domination s’est effritée suite à l’exploit de Camille Serme lors du Tournoi des champions 2020 à New York.  C’est la fin de cette première partie de cette série consacrée aux meilleures sportives. La Nouvelle Zélande au rugby, le Brésil au volley ou encore le Lynx de Minnesota au basket ? Dites-nous en commentaire quelles autres nations ou clubs féminins qui ont marqué l’histoire de leur discipline.

American Horror Story - Double Feature

ONTEM me rendi à décima temporada de American Horror Story, assisti quase todas as outras, apreciei muito algumas. Diria que os dois primeiros episódios me conquistaram e colocam Double Feature como forte candidata a estar entre as três ou quatro melhores temporadas da série.

CAPE FEAR, o episódio 1, começa com a família em viagem de carro chegando à Provincetown, a fotografia é deslumbrante. As cenas tomadas de um drone são de tirar o fôlego, dá vontade de se jogar na tela para cair lá e se deliciar com os horrores já previstos pelo caminho, na estrada a família encontra bichos mortos, dilacerados. Os membros da família são o pai-escritor com bloqueio interpretado por Finn Wittrock (36), que a quem possa interessar está bonito e pegável, e a mãe por Lily Rabe (39), grávida e decoradora frustrada que ganhou um concurso no Instagram e aposta num minimalismo radical. O casal tem uma filha criança que toca violino e às vezes parece bem mais esperta que o pai e a mãe. De repente aparece Macaulay Culkin (41) totalmente repaginado, acho que as últimas vezes que o vi, ele mais parecia ator de um filme de zumbis magros, agora não, está com uma carinha saudável, inclusive eu postei ontem ou antes, só conferir. Seu personagem vive de fazer programa com homens, oferece serviços sexuais no balcão de um bar para qualquer um, sim, precisa aproveitar qualquer um que apareça, afinal, Provincetown é uma cidade praiana e eles estão numa época fora da temporada e o lugar está deserto, pensemos que na temporada ele fatura até o cu cair da bunda, mas fora da temporada as coisas ficam difíceis, então qualquer um é um cliente em potencial. Dentre os serviços com quais ele quer seduzir o personagem de Finn ao qual diz parecer um ativo fervoroso, passiva, que se defende como sendo um homem casado, mas ele diz que são os homens casados que o procuram, está o frottage, do francês e que vem a ser -- esfregar pênis com pênis. Tenho até um vídeo fazendo frottage. Outra surpresa agradável é Evan Peters (34), achei que fosse mais novo, acho que ele está em todas ou quase todas as temporadas da série, lembro dele na primeira e nas outras também, em algumas seu personagem é feio, sofrido e tal, nesta ele está bem, está bonito, é um compositor rico e bem sucedido, interpreta Austin Sommers. Frances Conroy (67) interpreta Bella Noir, uma velha escritora e igualmente bem sucedida é amiga e faz par com Austin, não vou contar mais para não dar spoiler. Sim, Sarah Paulson (46) também está na temporada, como sempre, interpretação brilhante.

NO embalo assisti o episódio 2, Pale, e sim, só se confirmou que a temporada promete. Hoje vejo o 3, Thrist, e é também o dia que sai o quarto episódio, Blood Buffet. Yes, o título do episódio 4 é tão sugestivo que o caríssimo leitor já pode fazer uma ideia do que vem pela frente. Coisa boa. Em geral tudo ou quase tudo que Ryan Murphy (55) faz é muito bom. O primeiro e o segundo episódios são de autoria de Murphy e Brad Falchuk (50), o terceiro e o quarto apenas de Falchuk e o quinto de Falchuk e Manny Coto (não tem a idade no Wikipédia, mas pela foto ele tem um 50+). Ao todo a temporada terá 10 episódios, vai terminar em 20 de outubro.
