(The Center Square) – A federal appeals court heard oral arguments Thursday as judges consider former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan's appeal of his conviction on 10 counts of public corruption. The U.S. Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals took the case under advisement on Thursday afternoon following a hearing at the Everett McKinley Dirksen U.S. Courthouse in Chicago. Madigan defense attorney Amy Saharia said the appellate court should reverse Madigan's conviction because counts related to ComEd were too vague, and because the government failed to prove quid pro quo related to a state board seat.

Dr. Jeffrey DeSarbo is a neuropsychiatrist and eating disorder specialist who draws on decades of clinical experience to examine the realities of modern-day eating disorder treatment. His insight on the evolution of ED treatment is derived from working at all levels of care, including hospitalization, residential, PHP, IOP and private practice. He discusses the evolution of treatment professionals, treatment centers, the expansion of virtual care, the insurance and monetary climate, and the increasing pressures placed on patients, families, and clinicians alike.Eating disorder care has changed dramatically over the past decade, but not all change is progress. While not dismissive of progress, Dr. DeSarbo does not shy away from difficult truths. This is an open, thoughtful dialogue grounded in clinical experience, research, and advocacy with an emphasis on placing patients and families at the center of the conversation rather than professional comfort or institutional balance sheets of the current state of eating disorder care, how it has changed over the past decade, where we are today, and where we may be headed with AI and super intelligence.This discussion also examines how clinicians are trained, where education succeeds, and where it falls short. It addresses the growing tension between research, clinical practice, and real-world outcomes, and openly acknowledges the role that financial and structural incentives can play in shaping treatment systems.

La Gata GianninaLa gata Giannina vivía en una casa con jardín. El muro del jardín colindaba con un parque donde los niños se reunían para jugar. El pueblo era pequeño pero encantador — desde los alféizares de las casas, macetas de geranios y petunias descendían como cascadas de colores.Su dueña, la Señora Mafalda, la llevaba a menudo a pasear por el centro del pueblo. Todos los niños la conocían, y en cuanto la veían, corrían a su encuentro para hacerle fiestas sin parar.Giannina era muy juguetona. Durante el día se divertía persiguiendo lagartijas, cazando insectos, mariposas y todo lo que se moviera. Para descansar se tumbaba al sol sobre las piedras calientes y luego iba a refrescarse entre la hierba. En el jardín, entre el granado, el limonero y el olivo de hojas plateadas, ella y Mafalda pasaban las tardes jugando juntas.Pero un día, Mafalda empezó a notar algo extraño. Giannina saltaba para cazar, pero fallaba la puntería y acababa entre los rosales. "¡Ay, ay, ay! ¡Me he pinchado y mi cola está enredada en las ramas!" maullaba. Esquivaba por milagro los árboles donde antes subía con total seguridad. Llegaba a los cuencos del agua y la comida con paso inseguro.Preocupada, Mafalda la llevó al Veterinario.Después de escuchar las extrañas aventuras de la gatita, el Doctor sonrió y con aire sabio dio su diagnóstico: "Esta gatita no ve bien. Necesita gafas."Dicho y hecho — en un abrir y cerrar de ojos, el veterinario buscó en una vitrina llena de monturas para mascotas y, al encontrar la perfecta, exclamó: "¡Aquí tenemos unas gafas dignas de una señora elegante!"En cuanto se las colocaron en su simpático hociquito, la gata miró a su alrededor maravillada. ¡Veía todo mucho más claro! Se frotó contra las piernas del Veterinario y saltó a los brazos de Mafalda como para darle las gracias.El Doctor, conmovido por su dulzura, le hizo un regalo especial: una cadenita dorada con una pequeña perla en el centro que brillaba con luz propia. Susurrando, le dijo: "Si cierras los ojos y tocas esta perla con tu naricita, obtendrás poderes mágicos que solo tú tendrás. Servirán para ayudar a los demás."Giannina pensó que quizás aquel Veterinario también era un Mago, pero no le dijo nada a Mafalda. Era un secreto entre ella y el extraño Doctor.De camino a casa, la gente se giraba para mirarla pensando: esa gata parece misteriosa, hay algo que destella a su alrededor.En casa, el primer deseo de Giannina fue subirse a una silla y ponerse a mirar por la ventana. Las flores brillaban en sus colores y hasta la hierba era de un verde reluciente, como cubierta de rocío. Sonreía más feliz que nunca.Mafalda, compartiendo su alegría, decidió llevarla al parque.Llegaron en un instante. Las ardillas correteaban por los árboles, los pajaritos volaban cantando de rama en rama. Pequeños animales aparecían por todas partes y los niños los seguían curiosos — corrían con las lagartijas, saltaban con las mariposas que danzaban en el aire, mientras las rojas mariquitas se posaban en su piel como amuletos de buena suerte.Después de carreras, resbalones y corros, los niños se sentaron en el césped para merendar. De sus mochilas de colores salieron aperitivos deliciosos.Fue entonces cuando llegaron."¡Vriiip! ¡Vriiip! ¡Vriiip!"A toda velocidad, un pelotón de hormigas pasó zumbando en minimotos rugientes. Llevaban pequeños cascos brillantes en la cabeza, gafitas redondas en los ojos y botitas diminutas en las patitas. Frenaron en seco delante de los niños, levantando nubecitas de polvo."¡Paso! ¡Nosotras también estamos aquí!" gritó la hormiga jefa, levantando la visera del casco. "¿Podemos recoger las migas?"Los niños se rieron a carcajadas. "¡Sí, sí! ¡Comed todas las migas que queráis!"Las hormigas aparcaron las minimotos en fila ordenada, se quitaron los cascos con gestos teatrales, y se pusieron a trabajar transportando migas del doble de su tamaño, cantando una cancioncilla de marcha.En esta atmósfera alegre, Giannina y Mafalda paseaban por los senderos. Y de repente, a su paso, los árboles inclinaron sus ramas en una reverencia y las hojas susurraron en señal de saludo. Las rosas en los parterres abrieron sus pétalos y comenzaron a cantar. Las lagartijas golpearon sus colas contra el suelo como si fuera un tambor: "¡Rattatatá! ¡Rattatatá!" Y los ciempiés se pusieron a bailar claqué al ritmo alegre."¡Cielos, qué gran alboroto!" exclamó Giannina, que empezaba a sentir un aura misteriosa a su alrededor.No pudo evitar pensar en el Veterinario Mago. ¿Cuáles podrían ser los poderes mágicos que poseía? ¿Y qué pasaría si tocaba la perla con su naricita?Se lo dijo a Mafalda, que llevaba un libro de cuentos bajo el brazo. Se miraron y, entendiéndose al vuelo, aprovecharon la ocasión.Giannina reunió a los niños en un corro. Algunos llegaron rápidamente, otros más tímidos se unieron con calma. También las hormigas, con la panza llena, se pusieron de nuevo los minicascos, dieron una última vuelta rugiente en las minimotos, luego bajaron y se acercaron al grupo.Era el momento adecuado.Giannina cerró los ojos y tocó la perla mágica con su naricita. Una chispa dorada brilló en el aire. Tomó el libro de las manos de Mafalda, lo abrió, y eligió el cuento que parecía esperarla, reluciendo entre las páginas.Con voz dulce, comenzó a leer."Había una vez un conejito que vivía en el bosque. Tropezaba con las raíces de los árboles y las piedrecitas. En la escuela se equivocaba al leer las letras y los números, así que ya no quería ir. Cuando la maestra veía sus dibujos le decía: '¡Muy bien!' Lo mismo decían su mamá y su papá: '¡Muy bien!' Pero a él los colores le parecían desvaídos. La verdad era que no veía bien, pero en lugar de decirlo, se escapaba y se escondía en una madriguera bajo un árbol parlante. Y el árbol, con el susurro de sus hojas, le contó un secreto: habla con tus padres. Así lo hizo, y ellos le ayudaron a ponerse gafas. Y el mundo volvió a ser hermoso."Giannina cerró el libro. Lo había comprendido: con la perla mágica podía leer en el corazón de los niños, descubriendo emociones y secretos que esperaban salir a la luz."¿Sabéis?" dijo a sus pequeños oyentes, "yo también hace poco no veía bien. Pero me puse estas gafas y ¡puf! El mundo se volvió más claro y más hermoso."Un niño se le acercó, casi avergonzado, y le susurró al oído: "Quizás yo también las necesito, como tú."Giannina lo acarició dulcemente. "Te he ayudado a abrir tu corazón. Ahora habla con tus padres, y todo se resolverá."Fue entonces cuando un conejito apareció de repente entre los arbustos. Se acercó a Giannina, la abrazó y le dijo: "¡Eres mágicamente mágica!"Y — no lo creeríais — aquel conejito llevaba un bonito par de gafitas de colores.Desde aquel día, Giannina tomó de la patita a los niños del pueblo, enseñándoles a creer en sí mismos y a tener confianza. Se convirtió en la mascota con las gafas mágicas, y todos querían llevarlas como ella.Pero la verdadera maravilla era cómo veía ahora el mundo desde la ventana: más luminoso, más colorido, más vivo. Y cada noche, antes de dormirse, tocaba la perla con su naricita y sonreía, sabiendo que al día siguiente ayudaría a alguien más a ver el mundo con ojos nuevos.Casi parecía haber sido un sueño. Pero ya se sabe, la realidad y la fantasía a menudo caminan de la mano.— Escrita por Lucia & Marco Ciappelli Each story is currently written and narrated in both Italian and English.The translation from Italian (the original language) to English and the reading of the stories are performed using Generative Artificial Intelligence — which perhaps has a touch of magic...

¿Qué ocurre cuando encierras a tres mentes creativas en una cabaña aislada bajo la nieve, le añades "sustancias recreativas" ancestrales a un muñeco de nieve y esperas a que caiga un rayo? Pues que la Navidad se convierte en una monster movie de manual. En este Especial Navideño de 7 Pecados Digitales, no estamos solos. Me acompañan mis socios de fechorías y fatigas creativas: Borja Abad y Joseba Bajo. Mientras intentamos sobrevivir al asedio de una abominación helada que nosotros mismos hemos creado (cosas del directo y de la chamanería low cost), analizamos a fondo tres visiones del mito de Prometeo que nos obsesionan: El Jovencito Frankenstein: La parodia perfecta de Mel Brooks que nos enseñó que el cerebro es importante, pero el amor (y un buen violín) lo es más. ⚡ Frankenstein de Mary Shelley (Kenneth Branagh): Sudor, ópera, cámaras girando y un De Niro recosido en la adaptación más intensa y visceral. El Frankenstein de Guillermo del Toro: La visión más reciente y esperada, donde la monstruosidad se encuentra con la poesía visual del maestro mexicano. Preparaos los auriculares, cerrad bien las ventanas y echad leña al fuego. Va a ser una noche larga. En este episodio: El peligro de mezclar rituales y nieve. Por qué Igor (o Aigor) es el mejor secundario de la historia. La obsesión de Branagh por salir sin camiseta. ¿Es el monstruo el villano o somos nosotros? (Spoiler: somos nosotros). MENSAJE PARA LA PARROQUIA DE PECADORES ¡Atención, parroquia de pecadores y penitentes! Desde este refugio asediado, y antes de que la criatura vuelva a intentar entrar por la chimenea, quiero mandaros un mensaje de parte de Borja, Joseba y un servidor. Gracias por acompañarnos en este descenso a los infiernos digitales y narrativos durante todo el año. Espero que estas fiestas las paséis rodeados de la gente que queréis (o de los monstruos que mejor os caigan). Os deseamos una Navidad de cine, llena de historias que os vuelen la cabeza, regalos que no esperabais y, por qué no, un poquito de oscuridad para apreciar mejor la luz. Que vuestros propósitos de año nuevo sean ambiciosos y que vuestras pesadillas sean, como mínimo, creativas. Comed, bebed y, si hacéis un muñeco de nieve... por lo que más queráis, no le pongáis la pipa de papá. ¡Feliz Navidad y larga vida al monstruo!
