Episode 11：アイスクリームの味

مَرْحَباً, كَيْفَ الْحَال؟ 
مَرْحَباً أَناَ بِخَيْر وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّه,وَأَنْت؟ كَيْفَ الْحَال؟
نَعَم أَنَا بِخَيْر أَيْضاً, شُكْراً. مِنْ أَيْنَ أَنْتِ؟ 
أَنَا مِنْ سُورْيَا مِنْ مَدِينَة دِمَشْق. وَأَنْت؟ هَل أَنْتَ عَرَبِيّ؟
أَنَا عَرَبِيّ مِنْ مِصْر. 
مِنْ مِصْر؟ مِنْ أَيِّ مَدِينَة؟ 
مِنْ الْقاَهِرَة
طَيِّب, مَعَ السَّلاَمَة أَحْمَد
الى اللِّقَاء لَطِيفَة

Le manège magique
Dimanche, Bicotin, le petit mouton, est allé sur les manèges. Il ne voulait plus descendre de l’auto rouge. Il est rentré chez lui en pleurant.
La nuit, il est retourné à la fête. Il est monté dans l’auto rouge, mais elle s’est détachée du manège. Bicotin roulait sur la route à deux cents à l’heure. Malheur!
Il a raté un virage et boum !... dans un arbre ! Quel choc ! Bicotin a ouvert les yeux. Il était dans son lit. Il avait rêvé. Quel soulagement !

Des Milliers D'histoires

Histoire 19 - Le manège magique

Jeanne d'Arc, surnommée "La Pucelle d'Orléans", incarne le courage et le dévouement dans l'histoire de France. Née en 1412, elle a lutté avec foi et ténacité pour libérer la France de l'occupation anglaise durant la guerre de Cent Ans. 

Ses visions divines l'ont guidée dès l'âge de 17 ans, la poussant à couronner Charles VII à Reims. Soutenue par sa foi, elle devient une chef militaire influente, catalysant la victoire à Orléans en 1429. Capturée par les ennemis, elle subit un procès injuste et est brûlée en 1431. Son sacrifice renforce sa légende, et sa réhabilitation en 1456 souligne son innocence.

Sainte canonisée en 1920, elle inspire au-delà des frontières, symbolisant courage et idéaux nobles, un pilier de l'histoire française et un exemple durable de dévouement à une cause plus grande.

While the focus of job interviews is typically on skills, experience, and cultural fit, understanding the potential for micromanagement can be a strategic advantage. By recognizing the signs of a micromanager during the interview process, candidates can make informed decisions about accepting a position.

A micromanager often exhibits specific behaviors during interviews. They might excessively inquire about minute details of past roles, demonstrating a potential for future over-involvement. Overemphasis on control, rather than outcomes, could be another red flag. Conversely, candidates who have experienced micromanagement can leverage their insights during interviews. They can highlight their ability to work independently, problem-solving skills, and resilience in challenging environments.

Preparing for potential micromanagement involves understanding your own tolerance for control. Reflect on past experiences and identify your preferred work style. During the interview, ask questions that reveal the company's management style. Inquire about team autonomy, decision-making processes, and performance expectations. By proactively addressing this issue, candidates can increase the likelihood of finding a suitable work environment and avoid falling victim to micromanagement.

Ultimately, recognizing the potential for micromanagement is a valuable tool for job seekers. By being prepared and asking the right questions, candidates can make informed decisions about their career paths and increase their chances of finding a fulfilling and productive role.

Micromanagement: A Hidden Factor in Job Interview Prep - Episode 108

Host: Andrew Tate was taken into custody in Romania

Host: Welcome to the latest edition of the Legal Insider podcast. I'm your host, and today we have a shocking story to bring you. Influencer Andrew Tate, a self-confessed misogynist, has been arrested and taken into custody on charges of human trafficking, rape, and organized crime. Joining me to discuss this is our reporter. Can you tell us more about this case?

Reporter: Yes, the suspect and three others were arrested last night in Romania on charges of forming an organized crime group, human trafficking, and rape. Prosecutors say that six women have been identified as having been exploited by the group, which allegedly created pornographic content for paid websites as part of a venture that made them a significant sum of money. The authorities are alleging that this was the purpose of the group and are requesting to extend the suspect's detention period from 24 hours to 30 days.

Host: This is a shocking and disturbing story. What is known about the other suspects arrested with the suspect?

Reporter: The suspect's brother and two Romanian nationals were also taken into custody. It's not clear at this time what their involvement in the alleged crimes is. The suspect is a well-known online personality, with notoriety for his controversial views. He was kicked off Twitter in 2017 for his misogynistic views but was reinstated last month. He has publicly stated that women belong in the home, can´t drive, and are a man’s property. Despite these views, he was one of the most searched-for celebrities on social media in 2022.

Host: And do we know if the suspect has a criminal record?

Reporter: It's not clear at this time if he has committed any offenses previously, but these are certainly serious allegations and the authorities are seeking to extend his detention period. We'll continue to follow this story and bring you updates as more information becomes available.

Host: Thank you for bringing us this astounding
