Boston is one of those cities that just gets under your skin in the best way possible. Equal parts old-school history and modern-day hustle, it's where cobblestone streets meet glass skyscrapers, where the story of America was born, and where you can eat your body weight in lobster rolls without a shred of regret.Founded in 1630 by English Puritans, Boston has played host to some of the most pivotal events in U.S. history—the Boston Tea Party, the Battle of Bunker Hill, and even the first public park in America. Today, it's a vibrant mix of college-town energy, cutting-edge innovation, and diehard sports fandom (you'll never hear a “Go Sox!” shouted with more passion than here).I recently spent five days exploring Boston like a local, armed with a loose plan, comfy walking shoes, and an appetite big enough to conquer the city's legendary food scene. Here's how it all went down—my perfect Boston adventure. Day 1: Arrival & First Taste of the CityFlying into Logan International Airport is a breeze—it's practically right in the city. But here's your first Boston pro-tip: skip renting a car if you can. Boston traffic is next-level chaotic, parking is expensive, and the city is surprisingly walkable. Between the subway (locals call it “the T”) and Uber, you'll get around just fine.Of course, I had to test the rental car waters—$368 for two days of a Nissan Rogue—and let me tell you, the line alone made me question my life choices. If you do rent, book with a company that lets you walk straight to the garage and grab your car. Otherwise, hop in an Uber and save yourself the headache.Where to StayI split my stay between two totally different vibes:Hampton Inn & Suites Watertown – Budget-friendly ($100 a night) and great if you don't mind being just outside the city. Parking in Boston can run you $30 a day, so staying here helped balance the budget.Copley Square Hotel (FOUND Hotels) – Right in the heart of Back Bay, this historic gem ranges from $300–$600 a night. My corner-view studio overlooked the breathtaking Trinity Church at sunset, and it felt like waking up inside a postcard. Designed in 1877 by architect H.H. Richardson, this place is dripping with Richardsonian Romanesque charm—arched windows, rough stone, and colorful details. Around Copley, you'll also find:Fairmont Copley Plaza (1912) – A Gilded Age beauty and part of the Historic Hotels of America.Boston Public Library McKim Building (1895) – A Renaissance Revival masterpiece with white marble halls and free daily tours at 2 pm. Don't skip it; the architecture is jaw-dropping.Old South Church (1873) – A National Historic Landmark in Northern Italian Gothic style, complete with multicolored stone and a towering bell.John Hancock Tower (1976) – Boston's tallest skyscraper at 790 feet, shimmering in blue glass.After a long travel day, we celebrated our first night with dinner at Lolita Cocina & Tequila Bar. Order the lobster guacamole and grilled elote—and when in Boston, remember the golden rule: always order seafood. Steaks are for later. Oh, and if you see Scrod on the menu? Don't panic. It's not a weird mythical fish; it's just the white catch of the day—usually cod or haddock. Day 2: Walking Through HistoryIf Boston had a greatest hits album, it would be the Freedom Trail—a 2.5-mile path that connects 16 historic sites and tells the story of America's revolution. You can do it self-guided, join a regular tour, or go all out with an actor-led adventure (think Paul Revere cosplay).Morning Coffee & Boston CommonStart with caffeine at Thinking Cup Coffee Bar, then wander into Boston Common, the oldest public park in America (1634). It's massive, filled with monuments, and now home to the striking Embrace Memorial, honoring Martin Luther King Jr.From there, the trail unfolds like a time machine:Massachusetts State House (1798) – Charles Bulfinch's golden-domed wonder, still home to the state government.Park Street Church (1809) – Once Boston's tallest landmark, it sits on the site of the city's old grain storage.Granary Burying Ground (1660) – Final resting place of heavyweights like John Hancock, Sam Adams, and Paul Revere.King's Chapel & Burying Ground (1686) – Boston's first Anglican church, with over 330 years of history.Boston Latin School Site (1635) – The oldest public school in America; today it's marked by a Benjamin Franklin statue.Old Corner Bookstore (1718) – Once the publishing hub of legends like Hawthorne, Longfellow, and Thoreau. Now… a Chipotle (I wish I were kidding).Lunch at Union Oyster HouseBy now, you'll be starving. Enter Union Oyster House, America's oldest continuously operating restaurant (since 1826). The JFK booth is a must-sit, and yes—you're ordering a lobster roll.Afternoon: Monuments & Baseball MagicDon't miss the New England Holocaust Memorial—six glass towers etched with survivor stories, both sobering and moving.Then, if you're lucky enough to visit in season, cap off your night at Fenway Park. Whether it's catching a Red Sox game, snagging early batting practice passes, or just soaking up the energy at Cask 'n Flagon across the street (hot tip: persistence pays when getting a table here), Fenway is pure Boston. Day 3: More Freedom Trail & North End TreatsStart with breakfast at Quincy Market, the ultimate food hall. Then dive back into history:Old South Meeting House (1729) – Where colonists debated tea taxes and kicked off the Boston Tea Party.Old State House (1713) – Boston's oldest public building, central to colonial politics.Boston Massacre Site (1770) – A simple cobblestone marker for one of America's darkest sparks of revolution.From here, pop back into Quincy Market for another lobster roll (yes, it's worth a second one).Keep following the trail:Faneuil Hall (1742) – “Cradle of Liberty” where fiery speeches once filled the air. Today, it's mostly a giant souvenir shop, but the echoes of history remain.Paul Revere House (1680) – The patriot's humble home. Tours are intimate but no photos allowed inside.Old North Church (1723) – Where lanterns signaled “One if by land, two if by sea.” Take the tour to see the crypt and bell chamber.Cannoli TimeBoston's North End is an Italian dreamland, so refuel at Mike's Pastry with a giant cannoli. (Pro tip: get a few extra to-go. You'll thank me later.)End the night at Bell in Hand Tavern (1795), America's oldest continuously operating tavern. It's rowdy, it's historic, and it's the perfect spot for your nightcap. Day 4: Big Battles & Big ShipsIf your legs aren't jelly yet, tackle the Bunker Hill Monument. Climb the 294 steps for killer views of the city.From there, wander over to the USS Constitution, aka “Old Ironsides,” the oldest commissioned warship afloat. The ship and museum are free and make for an epic history-meets-maritime adventure.For a modern twist, hop in an Uber to the JFK Presidential Library & Museum—a sleek, inspiring deep dive into the Camelot era. Afterward, head to Sam Adams Brewery in Jamaica Plain. Tours start at $10, include tastings, and give you all the Boston beer vibes. Day 5: Art, Rainy-Day Magic & Sunset on the HarborBoston weather can turn on a dime, so I saved indoor treasures for day five.Morning: Museum of Fine ArtsThe MFA is massive, so choose wisely:Jewelry lovers: Beyond Brilliance exhibit (ancient to modern sparkle, with Chanel and Bulgari highlights).Classicists: Greek, Roman, and Byzantine collections.Painters-at-heart: Dutch & Flemish gallery with works by Rembrandt and Rubens.Quirky souls: Dollhouses and temporary Van Gogh exhibits.Fuel up at the museum café before heading out.Evening: Sunset Harbor CruiseOur trip ended on the water, with a Boston Harbor sunset cruise. Even in the rain, the top deck views were worth it. There's a buffet dinner, DJ, and plenty of space to dance—because no Boston trip is complete without one last celebration. Other Boston Must-Dos (If You Have Time)Duck Boat Tour – Amphibious buses that roam the streets then splash into the Charles River. Cheesy? Yes. Fun? Also yes.Cheers Pub – Grab a drink where everybody used to know your name.Green Dragon Tavern – A revolutionary haunt turned modern-day pub.Boston Burger Co. or Wahlburgers – Because you need at least one outrageous burger on this trip. Final ThoughtsBoston is the kind of city that can be done in a weekend but deserves a week. It's history you can touch, seafood you'll crave long after, and neighborhoods that feel like they've been waiting just for you.If you only had one day, I'd say walk the Freedom Trail—it's Boston in a nutshell. But if you want to experience the city like a local? Take your time, eat the lobster rolls, get lost in the cobblestone streets, and maybe—just maybe—let Fenway turn you into a Red Sox fan for life.Boston, you're wicked awesome.

Cos'è davvero il Made in Italy? Un marchio di prestigio che il mondo ci invidia… o un mito che sta lentamente crollando? Un tempo sinonimo di eccellenza, qualità e creatività, oggi il Made in Italy sembra attraversare una crisi profonda: produzione che si sposta all'estero, concorrenza globale spietata, marchi storici che finiscono in mani straniere. Ma allora, cosa rimane davvero di quell'identità che ha reso l'Italia un simbolo di stile e perfezione? Ne parliamo in questo articolo. Il Made in Italy sta morendo? La Grande Paura Italiana Ogni mattina, milioni di italiani si svegliano con la stessa preoccupazione: "E se il Made in Italy stesse davvero morendo?" Mentre sorseggiano il loro espresso rigorosamente italiano (ma fatto con una macchinetta cinese), si chiedono se la tradizione italiana sia destinata a scomparire come i dinosauri o la loro capacità di arrivare puntuali agli appuntamenti. I Sintomi della "Malattia" I segnali di questo presunto declino sono ovunque, secondo i più pessimisti. Vediamo i settori più colpiti da questa presunta crisi identitaria italiana. La Moda in Crisi di Identità Gucci è di proprietà francese, Bulgari è sotto l'ombrello LVMH, e persino alcuni stilisti famosi preferiscono produrre all'estero. "Ma come è possibile?" si lamenta la signora Maria dal parrucchiere, "I nostri vestiti dovrebbero essere cuciti dalle nonne italiane, non dalle macchine asiatiche!" Esempio: La parola ombrello qui non significa l'oggetto per la pioggia! È usata in senso figurato per indicare "controllo" o "protezione". Esempi: "L'azienda è sotto l'ombrello del gruppo internazionale" oppure "Questa organizzazione lavora sotto l'ombrello dell'ONU". Il Cibo e l'Invasione Straniera McDonald's ha più ristoranti in Italia della catena di pizzerie napoletane, e sempre più giovani preferiscono il sushi alla pasta. Il trauma nazionale è tale che alcuni politici hanno proposto di vietare l'ananas sulla pizza per legge (proposta ancora in discussione al Parlamento). Questo fenomeno rappresenta un vero shock culturale per un paese che considera la cucina parte integrante della propria identità nazionale. Vedere un giovane italiano ordinare un poke bowl invece di un piatto di spaghetti alla carbonara può causare sincere preoccupazioni esistenziali nei genitori. La Tecnologia Perduta Olivetti, un tempo gigante dell'informatica, è solo un ricordo, mentre tutti usiamo smartphone coreani e computer americani. L'unica consolazione è che almeno li usiamo per guardare video di nonne che fanno la pasta fatta in casa. Questo settore rappresenta forse la ferita più profonda per l'orgoglio tecnologico italiano. L'Olivetti era considerata un simbolo di eccellenza mondiale, e la sua scomparsa dal panorama tecnologico globale è vista da molti come una metafora del declino industriale italiano. La Realtà dei Numeri Ma fermiamoci un momento. I dati raccontano una storia completamente diversa da quella narrata dai pessimisti più accaniti. SettorePosizione Italia in EuropaValore di MercatoManifatturiero2° posto€680 miliardiSettore LussoLeader mondiale€90+ miliardiFood & BeverageCrescita costante€140 miliardiEsportazioni TotaliLivelli record€590+ miliardi Insomma, forse il paziente non è poi così malato come sembra. Anzi, potrebbe essere più in forma di quanto pensiamo! L'Evoluzione, Non l'Estinzione Il Made in Italy di oggi non è quello di cinquant'anni fa, e questo non è necessariamente un male. Come un buon vino, anche le tradizioni devono evolversi per non diventare aceto. Esempio: L'espressione diventare aceto è metaforica. Il vino, se non conservato bene, diventa aceto (inacidisce). Qui significa che le tradizioni, se non si adattano ai tempi, diventano obsolete e inutili. Innovazione nella Tradizione Aziende come Ferrari continuano a produrre auto da sogno, ma ora includono anche motori ibridi ed elettrici.

Tim and Armand explore the history of manual wind and automatic watches, discussing the advantages and disadvantages of each. They highlight the rise of sports watches and brands like Rolex, Omega, and Breitling, which led to the modern-day predominance of automatic watches. Also discussed are brands such as Patek Philippe, Bulgari, and Piaget, which were early innovators in the development of automatic wristwatches. Additionally, they share their opinions on the best complications and styles that complement manual wind watches.

SHOW NOTES: •We think the higher the value, the more we can charge. •However, at a given point, people believe they get what they pay for and those lines cross. •The point at which they cross means your brand is strong. •No one needs a Bentley for transportation, a Brioni for attire, a Bulgari to tell the time. But they assign great emotional value in their association and display. •The wrench story. •Many people made money during the pandemic and rough economic times by raising fees. It's easier, of course, to lower them, and to go out of business! •Mercedes made a mistake going "downscale," then failed to go "upscale" with the Maybach. •At the outset, raise value to raise fees. When your brand is powerful, change the order.

For decades, queer people have been told that acceptance comes with conditions - be more normal, more mainstream, more palatable. But a new generation of queer artists is rejecting these expectations entirely. This fourth and final summer special examines how queer voices are choosing authentic expression over respectability politics, even when it comes at real costs.Featuring conversations with Brendan Maclean from Australia, whose explicit "House of Air" video became his most radical artistic statement; Warren Dumas from Atlanta, who challenges gender expectations through androgynous presentation; SADBOY from New York, who highlights the contradiction between queer influence on culture and its lack of recognition; and Matt Fishel from the UK, who faced industry pressure to hide his gay identity but chose to create the representation he never had growing up.These artists understand that visibility itself is activism, and that real change comes from refusing to apologise for who you are.Timestamped Takeaways01:48 - Brendan Maclean's radical response to respectability politics: "We created the most queer, joyful, unashamed music video I think that's ever existed"06:26 - Warren Dumas on challenging expectations: "If it makes someone wonder, or if it makes someone stop... it opens up their mind to possibilities of being"08:15 - SADBOY on queer influence without recognition: "We influence hip hop... The world does not spin without the black gaze"11:41 - Matt Fishel on industry pressure: "Every single one of them basically said to me... you got to cut the gay content"13:43 - Warren Dumas on gender double standards: "When you know there are female singers... can display these acts of homosexuality, and it's art. But once a male does it..."15:16 - Brendan Maclean on career consequences: "It also really spoke to me away from pop music at the time... I went deeply inwards, as deep inwards as I possibly could go"20:12 - Brendan on finding his way back: "I had to get back on at a drag night... and the next week I was in Italy performing for Bulgari in a castle"21:01 - SADBOY's mission: "I'm trying to say that it's okay to display emotion... Any type of emotion like it's okay to love and to embrace that love"23:32 - Matt Fishel on creating representation: "I made these songs for 15 year old me... This is the album I wanted to hear at 15 years old"LinksRead deep dives into our queer lives at the blog HERE.Check out the official podcast playlist on Spotify.Follow the podcast on: Instagram • Tik Tok • FacebookSee producer and presenter Dan Hall's other work HERE (subtitled version HERE).Find composer Paul Leonidou HERE.Listen to other episodes at HERE.Visit the guests' homepages:Brendan Maclean

This week's episode starts off in familiar aBlogtoWatch fashion — lighthearted banter, a touch of mischief, and just enough side-eye at industry quirks to keep things interesting. The first eyebrow-raiser? Tim Cook's awkward watch-related gift to Donald Trump, a moment that sparks a wider discussion on the sometimes-clumsy dance between corporations, politics, and tariffs. And those tariffs aren't just awkward— they're a genuine threat to the U.S. luxury watch market, nudging brands to rethink their American footprints and pushing watch enthusiasts to consider their buying habits.Then, the conversation shifts to the soul of watch collecting. Generic, personality-free assortments are roasted for their lack of spark, while outlandish collections (think Inspector Gadget wristwear) get a weird nod for their unapologetic individuality. This sets the stage for a string of playful “what-if” designs, from timidly “sheepish” straps to the gloriously bizarre “Bongo Bang” collector's piece.The episode isn't ALL hypothetical whimsy. The hosts spotlight three notable models that balance form, function, and market positioning: the retro-cool Glashütte Original 70s X Chronograph, Bulgari's travel-friendly yet distinct Octo Roma World Timer, and the versatile TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 200. These watches hit the sweet spot where practicality meets emotional connection— a recurring theme as the team muses on the evolving tastes of luxury watch buyers.Other trends get airtime, too. Comfort and wearability are emerging as must-haves, solar-powered movements are winning over practical-minded enthusiasts, and defunct brands are enjoying a nostalgia-fueled revival. By episode's denouement, the tone circles back to humor, leaving listeners with a mix of market insight, design critique, and just enough absurdity to remind us why talking about watches never really gets old, especially when the straps are sheepish and the bongos are ready to bang.

C'était le tout premier épisode d'Allora. Une conversation fondatrice, inspirante, solaire… À l'approche de la rentrée, il me semblait évident de la partager à nouveau.Avec Eleonora Galasso, on parle réinvention, créativité, passion(s). Journaliste, autrice, conférencière et comédienne… Cette femme a mené plusieurs vies avec une énergie inépuisable, toujours guidée par l'intuition et le plaisir.On voyage avec elle dans les Pouilles, sa terre natale, à Rome, sa ville de cœur, avant de la suivre à Paris, sans jamais perdre le goût de l'Italie, glissé dans chaque valise, chaque plat, chaque projet.Un épisode symbolique à plus d'un titre : c'est aussi en écoutant une de ses masterclasses sur la créativité à l'italienne qu'est née l'idée de ce podcast. À (re)découvrir pour faire le plein d'inspiration avant septembre. Bell'ascolto !À lire cet été : Après avoir rencontré un joli succès au Théâtre des Mathurins à Paris, puis lors du Festival d'Avignon 2024, retrouvez la pièce de théâtre « Dévorante » écrite et interprétée par Eleonora Galasso en librairies, aux éditions Avant-Scène Théâtre.  Ainsi que ses livres de recettes : « A la romaine » (Ed du Chêne - 2016), « Je mange méditérranéen » (Ed. Marabout - 2018), « Ma grossesse plaisir » (Ed. Flammarion – 2021).Les inspirations italiennes d'Eleonora Galasso : Si le carnet de recettes de sa grand-mère est tenu secret ;-) Eleonora nous fait découvrir la bible de la cuisine italienne : « La science en cuisine et l'art de bien manger » (« La scienza in cucina e l'arte di mangiar bene ») de Pellegrino Artusi (Réédité par les Éditions Actes Sud en 2016).Les dialogues de l'écrivain et scénariste italien, Ennio Flaiano (qui a longtemps collaboré avec Federico Fellini, on lui doit quelques chefs-d'œuvre du cinéma : La strada, La dolce vita et Huit et demi).Le film « Huit et demi » (« Otto e mezzo ») réalisé par Federico Fellini (1963), avec notamment Marcello Mastroianni, Anouk Aimée, Claudia Cardinale.Le récit de voyage de Stendhal« Promenades dans Rome » (1829).Mais aussi les livres et photographies qui l'ont fait succomber aux charmes de Paris : Le « Dictionnaire Amoureux de Paris » de Nicolas d'Estienne d'Orves (Éditions Plon - 2015) & les photographies d'Henri Cartier-Bresson et Willy Ronis.L'œuvre du peintre vénitien Vittore Carpaccio qui a inspiré, malgré lui, un célèbre plat : le carpaccio, en 1950, à Venise.L'artiste Giovanni Battista Piranesi (1720-1778) qui a réalisé des lithographies, estampes et gravures, notamment dédiées à Rome, comme sa série « Les Vues de Rome ».La chanson « Ancora Tu » de Lucio Battisti.La marque qui contribue au rayonnement de l'Italie dans le monde : la haute joaillerie de Bulgari !L'univers d'Eleonora Galasso : Son Insta : @eleonoragalassoConçu, réalisé et présenté par Claire PlantinetMontage & Mixage Générique : François PraudMusique : Happy Clapping Cinematic Score / PaBlikMM / Envato ElementsCréation visuelle : Thomas JouffritPortrait Eléonora Galasso : © Pascal ItoPodcast hébergé par Ausha.Hébergé par Ausha.

Ahora sí que sí. Ya es oficialmente verano. Abonos, camisetas, fichajes y también, por último, y sí por ello menos importante, también fútbol. La pretemporada del Deportivo rueda y rueda con una audiencia que la sigue con el mismo interés con el que se siguen los cástings de Operación Triunfo. Importa menos lo que ensaya Antonio Hidalgo que descubrir en los andares de los jugadores quién se postula a jugador revelación y quién a baúl que facturar. Y esto no es una cuestión pequeña. El ya añorado Hugo Rama pudo reivindicarse frente al ostracismo rescatando los vídeos de la DéporXira de Verano en los que algunos quisieron adivinar a un cinco de jerarquía. Charlie Patiño ya sabe cómo va esto y parece dispuesto a promocionarse como estrella del verano mientras Fernando Soriano cavila en si merece la pena saltar la banca por un centrocampista del Albacete. Porque esa es la otra gran novedad estival: ahora sí el patrón ha abierto la cartera para que los chiquillos le vayan a buscar al mercado un ascenso a Primera y, con las vueltas, se compren un refresco. Primero nos quedamos con el balón en la playa, blindando a Yeremay, y ahora pisoteamos en la orilla los castillos de arena e ilusión de todos los clubes que anhelaban pescar a Luismi Cruz en el descendido Tenerife. Ese speedo de natatore agonístico de nuestro CEO resulta que sí servía para marcar paquete en el calciomercato veraniego. Está siendo tan el verano del dinero que el frenesí capitalista de Abegondo salpica a ajenos pero también a propios. Benjamín y Manuel, dos señores que frisan el medio siglo, le gritan a la nube que les ensombrece el día de playa y a los que parecen empeñados en empaquetar al Deportivo dentro de un escaparate de Bulgari. El dinero hace el mundo girar, de acuerdo, pero recordemos que eso se cantaba en un cabaret, no vaya a ser que alguien esté confundiendo un espectáculo popular con La Scala de Milán. Just sayin’.

At VivaTech in Paris, artificial intelligence is taking center stage, reshaping how global brands in fashion and beauty create, sell, and connect. An AI-powered scanner, developed in collaboration with Danish imaging specialists Rigsters and creative agency OKCC, captures detailed visuals that are transformed into highly realistic 3D models. These models are then processed using generative AI, with the aim to automate the creation of digital assets, enabling luxury brands to generate tailored content for online retail, advertising and social media, while remaining true to their brand identity. Louis Vuitton is part of the LVMH group, which stands for Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton and is one of the world's largest luxury goods groups. The French multinational owns more than 75 prestigious brands across fashion, jewelry, cosmetics, wines and spirits, including Dior, Bulgari, Fendi, Givenchy and Sephora. At its Bulgari stand, innovation is showcased again, but this time, focused on security and provenance. Displayed behind glass is the Serpenti Baroque necklace: a platinum showpiece set with eight baroque emeralds. A Bulgari smartphone app attempts to scan the necklace, but the protective screen, Bulgari says, gets in the way. Bulgari says the system strengthens the fight against counterfeiting and theft, which is a growing issue in the luxury market. Artificial intelligence is also aiming to support Bulgari staff behind the scenes. The brand has developed an internal AI assistant that helps teams communicate in line with the company's values and heritage. The AI chat tool provides instant access to Bulgari's internal knowledge base—from sustainability commitments to design history. For LVMH, artificial intelligence is a strategic investment aimed at protecting market share and driving performance in a rapidly evolving global luxury landscape. Across the exhibition floor, L'Oréal is taking a different approach, using AI to look beneath the surface of the skin. The company's Spotscan Plus tool uses microfluidic technology and artificial intelligence to analyze protein biomarkers that offer insights into a person's biological age and future skin health. It's a shift from traditional diagnostics, designed to offer consumers more personalized and scientifically grounded skincare routines without the need to see a specialist. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Max testet Sol e Samba von Birkholz – ein feiger Fruchtkracher mit minziger Frische und ambrierter Basis. Alex riecht an Astrum Nova von Electimuss, der ihn an Haribo Tropifrutti erinnert. Außerdem dabei: Ever Lit von Ojar (leider enttäuschend), Mandarine von Widian (duftet gut, hält nichts) und ein kurzer Plausch über Hitze, Sport und Duftgewohnheiten im Sommer. Hauptthema: Frische, schwache Sommerdüfte Die Auswahl: bewusst dezente, leichte Düfte – ideal für heiße Tage, aber oft mit schwacher Haltbarkeit. Jeder stellt drei davon vor, plus ein stärkeres Extra: Bergamotto Italia von Merchant of Venice – zitrisch, leicht, ideal zum Layern. Cologne Cédrat von Matiere Premiere – herb, bitter, maskulin und überraschend elegant. Aqva Amara von Bulgari – bittere Mandarine mit kühlem Aquatik-Effekt, leider schnell verflogen.

Nguyên thủ Mỹ những ngày cuối tháng 5/2025 đã có những tuyên bố gay gắt đối với tổng thống Nga Vladimir Putin, rằng ông « hoàn toàn điên rồ », « đang đùa với lửa »…Những lời chỉ trích này phải chăng đánh dấu một bước ngoặt trong chính sách của ông Trump về Nga? Phải chăng Donald Trump đang thoát khỏi sự kìm kẹp ảnh hưởng từ đồng nhiệm Nga ? Trên đây là những thắc mắc từ nhiều nhà quan sát. Tổng thống Mỹ Donald Trump có những phát biểu như trên sau những đợt oanh kích quy mô lớn chưa từng có tính từ đầu cuộc xung đột Nga – Ukraina, phối hợp tên lửa và drone nhắm vào nhiều vùng trên lãnh thổ Ukraina.Thiếu kiên nhẫn chiến thuậtPhải chăng tổng thống Nga đã đánh mất sự hậu thuẫn của Donald Trump ? Cựu đại sứ Pháp tại Nga giai đoạn 2020-2024, Pierre Lévy, trên làn sóng RFI Pháp ngữ ngày 27/05/2025, tỏ ra cẩn trọng khi cho rằng đối với Donald Trump, « cần phải chờ xem » những tuyên bố sắp tới.Nhưng theo ông, điều này thể hiện rõ một phương pháp tồi từ phía Washington, « không phải là cách để đối phó với Nga », với một dân tộc mà trong tâm trí luôn quan niệm rằng « nhà lãnh đạo thống trị và tự ngự trị mình. Do vậy, vị lãnh đạo đó không có tâm trạng và ông ta không nên thể hiện cảm xúc quá mức. Đó là dấu hiệu của sự yếu đuối ».Cũng theo cựu đại sứ Pháp Pierre Lévy, cách tiếp cận này của Nga là rất rõ ràng, được thể hiện rõ qua lời đáp trả của phát ngôn viên điện Kremlin Dmitri Peskov khi đánh giá những phát biểu của Donald Trump là « trả lời theo cảm xúc trước các sự kiện ».Nhà ngoại giao Pháp giải thích tiếp : « Vì vậy, tôi thấy rằng về cơ bản đây là một cách tiếp cận khá khinh thường. Vụ việc thể hiện sự tương phản giữa một bên là sự thiếu kiên nhẫn về chiến thuật của Donald Trump và bên kia là sự kiên nhẫn chiến lược của Nga với một quyết tâm lạnh lùng. Và do vậy, không chút tâm trạng. »Vladimir Putin : Ukraina chỉ là « Tiểu Nga »Sự thiếu kiên nhẫn đó có lẽ phần nào phản ảnh tâm trạng hụt hẫng của Donald Trump khi nhận ra rằng ông không dễ chấm dứt chiến tranh « trong vòng 24 giờ » như tuyên bố khi vận động tranh cử. Ngày 04/06/2025, sau cuộc điện đàm với đồng nhiệm Nga Vladimir Putin, tổng thống Trump thừa nhận sẽ không có « hòa bình tức thì » giữa Kiev và Matxcơva.Một sự thật hiển nhiên và chẳng có gì đáng ngạc nhiên. Ông Brian Whitmore, nhà nghiên cứu, giáo sư trường đại học Texas – Arlington, trên trang Atlantic Council ngày 29/05/2025, từng viết là sẽ « không có một thỏa thuận nào với Nga về Ukraina. Điều đó chưa bao giờ có và sẽ chẳng bao giờ có ».Đơn giản là vì, theo ông, không có một công thức kỳ diệu nào, không một nhượng bộ hay một sự mặc cả lớn nào có thể thỏa mãn những mục tiêu tối đa và mang tính tiêu diệt của điện Kremlin : Chấm dứt chủ quyền, quốc gia và nhà nước Ukraina. Trong khi Ukraina muốn tiếp tục tồn tại như một quốc gia có chủ quyền độc lập. Do vậy, không có một sự thỏa hiệp nào là khả thi.Trong một cuộc trao đổi với đồng nhiệm Mỹ, tổng thống Putin đã tuyên bố mọi giải pháp cho cuộc xung đột phải xử lý điều mà ông gọi là « nguồn cội sâu xa của xung đột ». Nói một cách cụ thể, đó là sự tồn tại của Ukraina như là một quốc gia có chủ quyền, điều mà từ lâu ông Putin coi là đáng nguyền rủa.Tại thượng đỉnh NATO ở Bucarest, Bulgari năm 2008, trước sự hiện diện của đồng nhiệm Mỹ lúc bấy giờ là George W. Bush, tổng thống Nga đã nói rằng « Ukraina thậm chí không phải là một quốc gia », mà chỉ là một « Tiểu Nga » như nhiều lần ông nói đến. Đây là một thuật ngữ được sử dụng dưới thời Sa hoàng để mô tả vùng lãnh thổ Ukraina. Vẫn theo ông Whitemore, « đối với ông Putin và giới tinh hoa điện Kremlin, sự thống trị thuộc địa Nga đối với Ukraina là một vấn đề tư tưởng không thể đàm phán ».Quyết tâm chinh phục Ukraina của Nga đã được một trong những nhà tư tưởng Nga thân cận với Putin, Vladimir Medinsky, thể hiện rõ qua tuyên bố « Nga sẵn sàng chiến đấu mãi mãi » và không quên nhắc lại cuộc chiến tranh phương Bắc 1700 – 1721 chống Thụy Điển trong vòng 21 năm. Trong cuộc đàm phán tại Istanbul gần đây, ông thách thức phái đoàn Ukraina : « Các người có thể sẵn sàng chiến đấu trong bao lâu ? ».Kinh tế : Mắc xích yếu của Nga, mồi nhử Donald TrumpTuy nhiên, Nga cũng ý thức được rằng chiến tranh kéo dài, họ cũng trả giá đắt. Theo ước tính của Viện Nghiên cứu Chiến tranh Mỹ, trong vòng bốn tháng đầu năm 2025, cứ mỗi một cây số vuông đất Ukraina chiếm được, Nga mất gần như 100 quân.Với nhịp độ này, Nga sẽ phải mất đến gần 4 năm để chiếm hết phần còn lại của bốn vùng Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporijia và Kherson mà Matxcơva đòi sáp nhập vào Nga, và có lẽ phải mất gần một thế kỷ để chiếm toàn bộ Ukraina, ngoại trừ các khu vực biên giới phía Tây nước này, với cái giá phải trả là 50 triệu thương vong, tương đương với khoảng 1/3 dân số Nga hiện nay.Nền kinh tế Nga hiện tại gặp khó khăn nhưng vẫn chống chọi được với các biện pháp trừng phạt của phương Tây. Nhưng nếu kéo dài cuộc chiến, kinh tế của Nga chịu được sức ép trong bao lâu nếu phương Tây bền bỉ duy trì áp lực với Matxcơva ?Trong điều kiện này, mục tiêu của điện Kremlin đối với Hoa Kỳ là tìm cách tách rời cuộc chiến với mối quan hệ Nga – Mỹ, bình thường hóa quan hệ song phương Matxcơva – Washington, và được nới lỏng trừng phạt. Tổng thống Nga Putin đưa « củ cà rốt », mời mọc Mỹ hợp tác khai thác đất hiếm. Ông tuyên bố mối quan hệ hợp tác kinh tế mới giữa Mỹ và Nga sẽ có lợi hơn cho đôi bên, nhất là trong lĩnh vực năng lượng nếu như « lệnh trừng phạt được dỡ bỏ »…Những ý tưởng mà ông Trump có vẻ như không muốn bỏ lỡ. Nguyên thủ Mỹ bày tỏ ý muốn thiết lập quan hệ kinh tế bình thường với Matxcơva. Đây có lẽ sẽ là một sai lầm, bởi vì điều đó sẽ giúp mang lại cho ông Putin chút dưỡng khí để tiếp tục cuộc chiến tại Ukraina. Thực tế trên chiến trường cũng đã cho thấy rõ : Bất chấp các cuộc đàm phán, Nga gia tăng oanh kích bắn phá các thành phố của Ukraina.Theo phân tích từ cựu đại sứ Pháp Pierre Lévy, trên đài RFI, « tổng thống Nga vẫn chưa đi chệch mục tiêu ban đầu của mình, đó là phá vỡ chủ quyền của Ukraina và đi đến cùng các mục tiêu của mình. Nói một cách đơn giản, trong phương trình này, ông phải cẩn trọng để cho ông Trump không hoàn toàn phải xa lánh. Ông ấy có thể điều khiển ông Trump, sao cho người đồng cấp vẫn hiện diện ở đó. Và đến một lúc nào đó thì ông Putin sẽ chuyển qua bước tiếp theo … »Ukraina : Chống trả hay đầu hàng, chọn lựa sinh tửĐây cũng là điều khiến nhà sử học, giáo sư Laurence Saint-Gilles, trường đại học Sorbonne, Pháp lo lắng. Trái với Ronald Reagan, vị tổng thống thứ 40 của Hoa Kỳ giai đoạn 1981 – 1989, chỉ bắt đầu đàm phán với Matxcơva sau khi đã tái lập đươc thế ưu việt chiến lược của Mỹ, tổng thống Trump đã vội vàng đồng ý ngay lập tức hầu hết các yêu cầu của đồng nhiệm Nga trước khi bắt đầu đàm phán, biến câu nói « hòa bình thông qua sức mạnh » thành « hòa bình thông qua đầu hàng ».Về phía Ukraina, bất chấp màn hạ nhục trước ống kính quốc tế tại Phòng Bầu Dục và những dọa dẫm cắt viện trợ quân sự, tổng thống Trump không nhận được sự nhượng bộ nào từ Kiev để có thể nhanh chóng đi đến một lệnh ngừng bắn, mở đường cho đàm phán hòa bình.Nhà nghiên cứu Brian Whitemore dẫn nhận định từ nhà chính trị học Ukraina Anton Shekhovtsov đưa ra hồi trung tuần tháng 5/2025, nêu lên một thực tế cay đắng : « Ukraina phải chọn giữa chống trả và nguy cơ bị giết, hay đầu hàng và bị giết. Bằng cách chống trả, Ukraina có một cơ hội, nhưng nếu đầu hàng, họ sẽ không có cơ hội nào và do vậy, việc đầu hàng không phải là một giải pháp khả thi. »Trong hoàn cảnh này, các nước Pháp, Anh, Đức và khối Liên Hiệp Châu Âu nỗ lực gia tăng viện trợ cho Ukraina và ban hành một loạt trừng phạt mới nhắm vào Nga. Thủ tướng Đức Friedrich Merz gần đây dỡ bỏ giới hạn tầm bắn đối với vũ khí Đức cung cấp cho Ukraina, buộc Matx cơva phải lên tiếng cảnh báo đó là « một quyết định nguy hiểm ».Dù vậy, ông Brian Whitemore cảnh báo một trong những thách thức lớn nhất trong tương lai là châu Âu có sẽ vượt qua được những chia rẽ trong nội bộ, nhất là từ các nước Hungary và Slovakia, và có thể cung cấp được vũ khí cho Ukraina hay không.Donald Trump có thoát được bóng Putin ?  Về phía Washington, các nước đồng minh châu Âu của Ukraina và giới quan sát đều có một câu hỏi : Liệu Donald Trump có thoát được chiếc bẫy Nga để ban hành loạt trừng phạt mới hay không, với hy vọng có thể chặn đứng được tham vọng bành trướng của Matxcơva và đi đến đàm phán hòa bình ?Nhà sử học Laurence Saint-Gilles trên La Croix lưu ý thêm rằng, nếu như những quyết định của Nhà Trắng cho đến lúc này làm hài lòng một bộ phận cử tri thân Nga, chống viện trợ cho Ukraina, thì Donald Trump khó thể phớt lờ một bộ phận lớn người dân Mỹ ủng hộ Ukraina và xem Nga như là một kẻ thù.Đây không phải lần đầu tiên Donald Trump bày tỏ bất bình công khai với đồng cấp Nga Vladimir Putin, nhưng không ai có thể đoán đâu là phạm vi hành động của ông. Theo quan điểm Laurence Saint-Gilles, tổng thống Trump rất có thể « núp bóng » sau một cuộc bỏ phiếu tại Thượng viện, vốn dĩ đã báo hiệu ý định áp đặt các lệnh trừng phạt mới đối với Nga và áp đặt mức thuế quan nặng đối với các quốc gia mua dầu, khí đốt và uranium của Nga.Kết quả của cuộc bỏ phiếu này sẽ cho thấy những phản ứng gay gắt gần đây của Donald Trump chỉ là phản ứng cảm xúc, hay là khởi đầu của một cuộc giải thoát khỏi sự quyến rũ mà tổng thống Nga đang tác động lên ông!

This week on aBlogtoWatch Weekly, Brother Rick is conspicuously absent, so it's Ariel running the show alongside Ripley and David, who all know that to take a podcast vacation now would be to deprive listeners of the comfort of a discussion of their watch hobby straight to their ears. The guys get right to it with a look the new Venezianico Arsenale. Ariel proposes that when glasses take over smartwatches, the wrist will become available again for useless things like mechanical timekeeping. They veer off associatively into the rabbit hole of augmented reality. Getting back to basics, Ripley posits that when simplicity is done right, it can be more impressive than a busy dial because your attention is focused only on a few elements. Next up is the Rolex Sky-Dweller 226938 18k yellow-gold watch, which Ariel likes quite a lot, even though the dial has never sold him on "pretty." Ripley says he'd take it over a Nautilus or a Royal Oak. David agrees that it's a powerful watch in its complications and execution, but it's not right for his wrist (too heavy). Then the team discusses David's most recent "Grinding Gears" article, in which he asks "How long should watch brands milk historic achievements?" Next up is a look at the new Bulova Lunar Pilot "Blood Moon" watch, which David thinks is too large even in its smallest form, but everyone loves the story of this watch. Listen in for more. Speaking of small, the Hamilton PSR74, a modern LED with a retro look. David isn't sure he would spend upwards of $800 on this watch, though he's happy it exists. Then, they discuss the watch that the Venezianico Arsenale wants to be: the Parmigiani Tonda PF Sport Chronograph in Milano Blue. They end with a look at a deep dive into Bulgari's new watch manufacture and the Hands-On: Tudor Pelagos FXD Chrono 'Cycling Edition' And The Role Of Watches In Professional Cycling | aBlogtoWatch Maybe when Rick gets back, he'll bring Hit, Miss, Maybe with him.

Biba Giacchetti"L'arte della fotografia di moda: Giampaolo Barbieri"E' scomparso all‘età di 89 anni Gian Paolo Barbieri, una vera istituzione nell'ambito della fotografia di moda. I suoi ritratti iconici di dive di ieri e di oggi, come Audrey Hepburn e Monica Bellucci, e la sua lunga collaborazione con Vogue Italia, hanno reso il suo stile inconfondibile.Nato nel 1935 in via Mazzini, appena a fianco del Duomo di Milano, da una famiglia di grossisti di tessuti dove acquisì le prime competenze utili per la fotografia di moda, Barbieri mosse i suoi primi passi nell'ambito teatrale come attore, operatore e costumista, tanto che ebbe anche una piccola parte non parlata in Medea di Luchino Visconti. Fu il cinema a dargli quel senso del movimento che trasferì nella fotografia, prima applicata alla Dolce vita romana e poi alla moda, a Parigi.Nel 1964 il ritorno a Milano e l'apertura del primo studio fotografico: iniziò in quel momento quella sfolgorante e sessantennale carriera che lo portò a collaborare con personaggi di primo piano della moda come Diana Vreeland, Yves Saint Laurent e Richard Avedon, a ritrarre le attrici più iconiche di tutti i tempi, da Audrey Hepburn a Veruschka, da Monica Bellucci a Jerry Hall, a scattare le campagne pubblicitarie di marchi internazionali come Valentino, Gianni Versace, Gianfranco Ferré, Armani, Bulgari, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Dolce & Gabbana, Vivienne Westwood.Classificato nel 1968 dalla rivista Stern come uno dei quattordici migliori fotografi di moda al mondo, nel 2018 Barbieri ha vinto il premio Lucie Award 2018 come Miglior Fotografo di Moda Internazionale. Le sue opere sono presenti in istituzioni culturali come il Victoria & Albert Museum e la National Portrait Gallery di Londra, il Kunsforum di Vienna, il MAMM di Mosca e il Musée du Quai Branly di Parigi.    Steve McCurry "Children"Dal 20 dicembre 2024 al 4 maggio 2025 le sale del Palazzo dei Priori di Fermo ospitano la mostra Steve McCurry - Children, ideata e curata da Biba Giacchetti. Oltre cinquanta fotografie dedicate all'infanzia vista attraverso l'obiettivo del grande fotografo Steve McCurry, realizzate nell'arco di quasi cinquant'anni di carriera.Una galleria di ritratti per esplorare tutte le sfaccettature dell'infanzia, accomunate da un elemento universale: lo sguardo dell'innocenza. Le immagini, provenienti da ogni angolo del mondo, ritraggono i più piccoli in scene di vita quotidiana. I bambini negli scatti di McCurry, pur diversi per etnia, abiti e tradizioni, condividono la gioia di vivere e la capacità di giocare anche nei contesti più difficili, spesso segnati da povertà, conflitti o condizioni ambientali estreme. Il pubblico sarà accompagnato in un viaggio ideale in paesi come India, Birmania, Pakistan, Tibet, Afghanistan, Libano, Etiopia e Cuba.“Ogni immagine offre uno spaccato delle condizioni sociali più disparate, rivelando una condizione umana universale fatta di sentimenti comuni e sguardi che affermano la stessa dignità”, spiega la curatrice.“Incontriamo bambini profughi e lavoratori, giovani che trasformano un cannone arrugginito in un gioco, che rincorrono un pallone sotto la pioggia, che creano musica con chitarre fatte di materiali di scarto. Bambini che vivono nelle grandi metropoli o nei villaggi più remoti, protagonisti di storie di gioia e aggregazione, solitudine e resilienza, solidarietà e stupore”.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Send us a textDer CEO von Bulgari, Jean-Christophe Babin, hat die Schweizer Lufthansa-Tochter Swiss auf LinkedIn scharf kritisiert. In einem inzwischen gelöschten Post bezeichnete Babin Swiss-Fluggäste als “Geiseln der Inkompetenz und Arroganz” und bemängelte den durchschnittlichen Service, alte Flugzeuge wie den Airbus A340 und schlechtes Essen. Besonders ärgert ihn die Häufigkeit von kurzfristigen Flugstornierungen ohne schnelle Alternativen, selbst für Vielflieger mit Senator-Status.Babin vergleicht Swiss mit Billigfliegern wie Easyjet und betont, dass das Airline-Geschäft das einzige sei, in dem Inkompetenz nicht bestraft werde. Auch andere Manager der Uhrenbranche schlossen sich der Kritik an, und Swiss versucht nun, den wütenden Bulgari-Chef hinter den Kulissen zu besänftigen, bleibt aber öffentlich zurückhaltend.#Swiss #LufthansaGroup #Bulgari #Kritik #Luxusmarken #AirlineService #Service #LuxusFrage des Tages: Findet ihr München auch so schlecht bei der On Time Performance?
