Carlo Allemano"Start Storia Arte Saluzzo"La Mostra Nazionale Antiquariato di Saluzzo, curata da Franco Brancaccio, dopo alcuni anni di crescendo in termini di proposta e pubblico, torna con uno spazio di grande fascino, la Castiglia, il Castello dei Marchesi di Saluzzo, e si conferma come uno dei luoghi dell'Antiquariato italiano. Per la settima edizione consecutiva, il curatore Franco Brancaccio si propone di raccontare storie di antiquariato e oggetti pregiati e antichi, proseguendo, e anzi rilanciando, la scia del successo che la storica manifestazione saluzzese, anno dopo anno, ha saputo ottenere. Il gusto e la definizione di “bellezza” cambiano negli anni, ma Saluzzo resta una nicchia dove la tradizione ha radici che affondano nel secolo scorso e l'attenzione all'arte antica non è mai venuta meno. Tante le meraviglie che il pubblico potrà ammirare grazie alla selezione di case Antiquarie che ancora una volta scommettono su una manifestazione capace di consolidarsi negli anni come scrigno in grado di unire l'innovazione dell'Antiquariato di oggi alla storia che permea la città. Da alcuni anni, grazie all'intuizione e alla caparbietà del curatore, è stata proposta una curiosa novità introducendo l'Antiquariato da giardino: uno spazio di grande suggestione nel bellissimo cortile della Castiglia ispirata da Paolo Pejrone, storico del giardino e architetto. Si è così sviluppato un nuovo ambito di interesse che ha offerto uno sguardo anche sulla bellezza dell'esterno, da sempre oggetto di un vero e proprio mondo di arte antica in pietra, marmo, ferro battuto. Anche il 2025 vedrà un ampliamento e una rivisitazione dello spazio esterno. La Mostra Nazionale dell'Antiquariato si conferma fiore all'occhiello di START / Storia Arte Saluzzo, manifestazione che per un mese racconta la cultura, la storia, la bellezza di Saluzzo. Antiquariato come narrazione del bello senza tempo, del lavoro di gallerie che caparbiamente portano l'arte in tour offrendo al mondo la possibilità di ammirare, acquistare e comprendere il procedere della storia e con esso l'evoluzione dell'arte. Anche il 2025, oltre a ospitare grandi Case d'Arte italiane e internazionali, porterà in Castiglia una Mostra collaterale capace di incuriosire e sorprendere. Tema: la giovinezza. Prendendo spunto da quegli affreschi che impreziosiscono il bellissimo Castello della Manta, ricchi di eroi ed eroine rappresentati alle pareti del Salone che esprimono la passione della società aristocratica del Quattrocento e dalla fontana della giovinezza, la Mostra Nazionale dell'Antiquariato vuole dedicare alcuni spazi della Castiglia di Saluzzo all'arte pittorica che nei secoli ha descritto giovinezza e bellezza. In concomitanza con la 48^ Mostra Nazionale dell'Antiquariato, il Castello della Manta, Bene del FAI Fondo per l'Ambiente Italiano, nel periodo dal 17 al 25 maggio, dedicherà un focus specifico alla Fontana della Giovinezza durante le visite guidate in programma. Inoltre, per tutti i visitatori, sarà attiva una speciale convenzione sul biglietto d'ingresso per chi effettuerà le visite ad entrambe le mostre: per ottenere lo sconto in entrambi i musei sarà sufficiente mostrare il biglietto di ingresso ricevuto alla prima visita.

When 71-year-old Thomas Perez Senior failed to return home after a short walk to his mailbox in Fontana, California, his son Tom wasn't overly concerned. He suspected his father had just gone to visit friends or family and would return home of his own accord. But when police arrived at the Perez home to complete a missing person's report, they came to suspect something else entirely.---Narration – Anonymous HostResearch & writing – Milly RasoCreative direction – Milly RasoProduction & music – Mike Migas Music – Andrew D.B.

Mark Scout a subi une opération au cerveau pour séparer vie professionnelle et vie personnelle. Lorsqu'un mystérieux collègue apparaît en dehors du travail, il commence à questionner la vraie nature de son travail.Après la conclusion de la deuxième saison de SEVERANCE, Yanick Dahan se penche sur la série phénomène d'Apple TV+. Lancée en février 2022 au sortir de la crise de la COVID-19, la série réalisée par Ben Stiller connut un succès mondial immédiat et, vu les sujets qu'elle aborde, on comprend vite pourquoi : absurdité du monde de l'entreprise, enfermement consenti, contrôle mental, culte du patronnat, etc. Des thèmes qui renvoient autant à notre quotidien qu'aux théories conspirationnistes circulant sur Internet. Pour ce nouvel épisode, Yannick revient en détails sur les deux saisons de SEVERANCE et leur conclusion. On vous conseille donc de l'écouter après avoir tout vu.Les saisons 1 et 2 de SEVERANCE de Dan Erickson sont disponibles en intégralité sur Apple TV+ depuis le 21 mars 2025.- ACCORD PARENTAL SOUHAITABLE - CONTENU EXPLICITE -Proposé et animé par Yannick DahanRéalisation : Alain MercierImage : Cédric FontanaMoyens techniques : Cappuccino productionProduction : Stéphane Moïssakis, Alain Mercier, Yannick Dahan et Reda BoukakiouHabillage : Cédric Fontana - Benjamin DubretJingle CAPTURE MAG : Thomas CappeauMusiques : Ice Cube - Arrest The President / Jacques Brel - La Valse à mille temps / Mel Tormé - The Windmills Of Your MindsRetrouvez toutes nos émissions sur http://www.capturemag.frCapture Mag est sur LETTERBOXD : https://letterboxd.com/CaptureMag/Pour nous soutenir, il y a deux adresses :PATREON : https://www.patreon.com/capturemagTIPEEE : https://www.tipeee.com/capture-magLISEZ CAPTURE MAG !Toutes nos revues sont disponibles dans les librairies, les magasins de produits culturels et sites marchands.Akileos : https://bit.ly/AkilsCMEn MP3 sur Acast : https://bit.ly/3v6ee7sSur SPOTIFY : https://spoti.fi/3PJYnF3Sur DEEZER : https://bit.ly/2wtDauUSur APPLE podcasts : https://apple.co/2UW3AyO#benstiller #adamscott #lumon Hébergé par Acast.

notebook, trying to capture inspiration in her lines.It: Enzo, invece, seguiva allegramente, godendosi la compagnia dei suoi amici e il tepore del sole di primavera.En: Enzo, on the other hand,

Episode 360: On May 18, 1966, Paul Joseph Chartier, among other things, a disillusioned and unemployed security guard and former truck driver, attempted a deadly act of terrorism on Parliament Hill in Ottawa. Chartier planned to throw a homemade dynamite bomb into the House of Commons chamber, targeting politicians he blamed for societal injustices and his personal failures. However, the bomb detonated prematurely in a washroom, killing only Chartier himself. This tragic incident drew significant attention at the time, leading to investigations by the RCMP and led to a federal inquiry. Sources: Robert N.

Fluent Fiction - Italian: The Tales We Tell at Fontana di Trevi Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/it/episode/2025-03-25-22-34-01-it Story Transcript:It: La fontana di Trevi brillava sotto il sole primaverile di Roma.En: The fontana di Trevi glistened under the spring sun of Roma.It: Turisti sorridevano e scattavano foto, immersi nel suono rilassante dell'acqua che scorreva.En: Tourists smiled and took photos, immersed in the relaxing sound of the flowing water.It: Alessio e Lucia si trovavano proprio davanti alla fontana, un po' in disparte dalla folla.En: Alessio and Lucia stood right in front of the fountain, a bit apart from the crowd.It: Alessio, con un sorriso sicuro, voleva impressionare Lucia con la sua conoscenza della storia.En: Alessio, with a confident smile, wanted to impress Lucia with his knowledge of history.It: "Lucia, sai che la fontana di Trevi è stata costruita ai tempi di Giulio Cesare?"En: "Lucia, did you know that the fontana di Trevi was built during the time of Giulio Cesare?"It: disse Alessio, alzando le sopracciglia.En: said Alessio, raising his eyebrows.It: Lucia, con un sorriso affettuoso, ascoltava.En: Lucia, with an affectionate smile, listened.It: Ma accanto a loro, un giovane guida turistica si avvicinò, agitando una bandierina.En: But next to them, a young tour guide approached, waving a little flag.It: "Oh, non proprio," disse la guida con entusiasmo.En: "Oh, not quite," said the guide enthusiastically.It: "La fontana è stata completata nel 1762, su progetto di Nicola Salvi.En: "The fountain was completed in 1762, designed by Nicola Salvi.It: È molto più recente di quanto pensi!"En: It's much more recent than you think!"It: Alessio fece un cenno con la testa, fingendo di sapere già quell'informazione.En: Alessio nodded, pretending to already know that information.It: Ma non era la sua ultima parola.En: But that wasn't his last word.It: "Quello che pochi sanno," continuò Alessio, "è che c'è una parte segreta della fontana, un passaggio sotterraneo che porta al Colosseo."En: "What few know," continued Alessio, "is that there is a secret part of the fountain, an underground passage that leads to the Colosseo."It: Questa volta, la guida rise di cuore.En: This time, the guide laughed heartily.It: "Interessante teoria!En: "Interesting theory!It: Ma non troverai alcun passaggio segreto qui.En: But you won't find any secret passage here.It: La fontana era parte di un antico acquedotto romano, questo sì."En: The fountain was part of an ancient Roman aqueduct, that's true."It: Lucia percepì la piccola bugia, ma invece di sottolinearla, rise e disse: "Adoro queste storie, Alessio."En: Lucia sensed the little lie, but instead of highlighting it, she laughed and said, "I love these stories, Alessio."It: Alessio capì che forse la sua tecnica non stava funzionando.En: Alessio realized that perhaps his technique wasn't working.It: Fece un ultimo tentativo: "Forse non un passaggio segreto, ma dicono che se lanci tre monete e esprimi un desiderio, la fontana ti porterà fortuna!"En: He made one last attempt: "Maybe not a secret passage, but they say if you toss three coins and make a wish, the fountain will bring you luck!"It: La guida, sentendo di nuovo Alessio, intervenne ancora una volta.En: The guide, hearing Alessio again, intervened once more.It: "La tradizione della moneta è vera, ma si tratta di una sola moneta per ritornare a Roma, una tradizione che aiuta anche a raccogliere fondi per i poveri."En: "The coin tradition is true, but it's just one coin to return to Roma, a tradition that also helps collect funds for the poor."It: A questo punto, una piccola folla si era radunata intorno ad Alessio e alla guida, sorridendo ai goffi tentativi di Alessio.En: At this point, a small crowd had gathered around Alessio and the guide, smiling at Alessio's awkward attempts.It: Lucia, con gentilezza, prese la mano di Alessio.En: Lucia, with kindness, took Alessio's hand.It: "Va bene, mi piace vedere quanto ci tieni a raccontarmi queste storie," disse con il suo modo positivo.En: "It's okay, I like seeing how much you care about telling me these stories," she said in her positive way.It: Alessio si fermò, rendendosi conto di quanto poco sapesse in realtà.En: Alessio stopped, realizing how little he actually knew.It: "Scusami, Lucia.En: "Sorry, Lucia.It: Forse ho esagerato un po'."En: Maybe I overdid it a bit."It: Lucia ridacchiò, tirando Alessio verso la guida.En: Lucia chuckled, pulling Alessio towards the guide.It: "Va bene!En: "It's okay!It: Perché non seguiamo la guida e impariamo insieme?En: Why don't we follow the guide and learn together?It: Potrebbe essere divertente!"En: It might be fun!"It: E così fecero.En: And so they did.It: Alessio e Lucia seguivano la guida, ascoltando attentamente la storia reale della maestosa fontana, lasciandosi trasportare dai dettagli.En: Alessio and Lucia followed the guide, listening intently to the real story of the majestic fountain, letting themselves be carried away by the details.It: Alessio, umile e aperto, si sentì più leggero.En: Alessio, humble and open, felt lighter.It: Scoprì che imparare insieme a Lucia era molto più divertente e rilassante.En: He discovered that learning together with Lucia was much more fun and relaxing.It: Alla fine, entrambi lanciarono una moneta nella fontana, sperando di tornare un giorno.En: In the end, they both tossed a coin into the fountain, hoping to return one day.It: Lucia sorrise.En: Lucia smiled.It: "Sai, Alessio, l'essere sinceri è molto impressionante."En: "You know, Alessio, being sincere is very impressive."It: Alessio annuì, capendo che l'onestà e la semplicità valevano più di mille storie inventate.En: Alessio nodded, understanding that honesty and simplicity were worth more than a thousand made-up stories.It: Entrambi lasciarono la fontana di Trevi mano nella mano, pronti a esplorare altre meraviglie di Roma, insieme.En: Both left the fontana di Trevi hand in hand, ready to explore more of Roma's wonders together.

Trigger warning:In honor of Joshua's life, Nicholas Fontana agreed to film with PBTR a few years ago to share his experience of losing his adopted friend Joshua to suicide. I ran into Nicholas at a mutual friends party a few weeks ago. Everything fell away as we began to speak about the effort to heal and all of the ways he has made progress. I asked Nicholas if he would be willing to be on the podcast to talk about the ideas he shared during our conversation. This led me to think about how to deal with our diverse levels of pain in a way that I have never considered before. His inspiration for self exploration came from; Gangaji, Alan Watts. Adyashanti, Eckhart Tolle and Terrence McKenna.It is important to understand that the people who love adopted people hurt when we hurt. Adoption is not a singular event that happens to one person. Adoption loss extends out from us; it affects our relationships, our parenting and our ability to feel worthy. In reintroducing you to Nicholas and Joshua we hope you feel inspired by the courage, friendship and the bond they shared. We honor Joshua and his brave battle, we honor all of the warriors we have lost. Remember you are worthy in fact you are spectacular! -Joshua Samuel Kukla -Father, friend, musician, brother, son, adopteeClick here to send us a text.

Eccessiva attenzione ai costi, ritardi nel rinnovamento della gamma e politiche commerciali sbagliate in Nord America (prezzi troppo alti per modelli a fine ciclo, da cui eccesso di auto sui piazzali dei concessionari). Sono tra le cause che hanno spinto il gruppo Stellantis verso un bilancio del 2024 disastroso. Il gruppo ha chiuso l anno con ricavi netti pari a 156,9 miliardi di euro, in calo del 17% rispetto al 2023, con consegne consolidate in diminuzione del 12% «per gap temporanei nella gamma prodotti e azioni di riduzione delle scorte ormai completate». L utile netto è affondato: -70%, a di 5,5 miliardi. L utile operativo rettificato, 8,6 miliardi, è diminuito del 64%. Ma a complicare il quadro ecco l incertezza legata ai dazi del 25% sulle importazioni che l Amministrazione Trump introdurrà dal 2 aprile e che colpirebbero particolarmente il gruppo, molto legato a produzioni in Messico e Canada. «Sosteniamo Trump» nel suo focus «sulla produzione negli Usa, ma le discussioni sono ancora in corso. Stiamo valutando quali possano essere le conseguenze per noi», ha dichiarato il presidente del gruppo John Elkann. Stellantis ha quindi aggiornato le stime e prevede «il ritorno a una crescita profittevole e a una generazione di cassa positiva nel 2025». L azienda parla di crescita «positiva» dei ricavi netti, un margine di reddito operativo positivo a una cifra e flusso di cassa industriale «positivo», «che riflette sia la fase iniziale della ripresa commerciale sia le elevate incertezze del settore».I commenti di Mario Cianflone, Il Sole 24 Ore e Michele Solari, referente della nautica elettrica per Assonautica italiana.Trump annuncia una pioggia di daziDonald Trump ha annunciato che a partire dal 4 marzo scatteranno i dazi del 25% contro Messico e Canada e del 10% contro la Cina. Continuano ad arrivare nel nostro Paese fiumi di droghe dal Messico e dal Canada a livelli altissimi e inaccettabili. Una grande percentuale di queste, molte sotto forma di Fentanil, sono prodotte e fornite dalla Cina , ha attaccato Trump in un post su Truth. Ieri però nel bersaglio della casa Bianca è finita anche l'Bruxelles. "L Unione Europea ci deruba, anzi è nata apertamente con quell intento. E gli Stati Uniti sono adesso pronti a colpire il Vecchio Continente con un offensiva a base di duri dazi del 25%, nell auto ma anche generali , rivolti a tutti gli altri settori". Donald Trump alza il tiro delle minacce nelle guerre commerciali transatlantiche. "Abbiamo preso una decisione e annunceremo i dettagli molto presto", ha dichiarato il presidente americano. "Saranno del 25%", ha precisato parlando delle tariffe. Ha poi aggiunto che verranno applicate "in modo generale", vale a dire "sull auto e su tutto il resto". La Ue, ha continuato descrivendo con toni ostili il gruppo delle nazioni europee, "non accetta le nostre auto o i nostri prodotti agricoli, si approfitta di noi".Lucio Miranda, Presidente Export USA, è intervenuto a Focus Economia.Fontana: «Classifiche inaccettabili». Il ministero della Salute: nessuna classifica e dati condivisi«Sono cose assolutamente inaccettabili. I parametri indicati non hanno niente a che vedere con il funzionamento della sanità, sono cose cervellotiche che hanno l obiettivo di penalizzarci. Sono dati che si fondano su questioni che non c entrano niente, codici interpretabili in differenti modi, tra diverse aziende sanitarie e Regioni. Non può essere questo il metodo di giudizio del funzionamento della sanità». Si è espresso così il presidente della Regione Lombardia Attilio Fontana a proposito dei risultati della classifica del ministero della Salute sulla qualità di cura delle Regioni. «Sono tutte, se posso usare un termine giuridico, puttanate», ha aggiunto. Il ministero della Salute ha però replicato subito al governatore Fontana spiegando che non formula classifiche, limitandosi a pubblicare periodicamente, in ottemperanza alla normativa vigente, i dati relativi alla corretta erogazione dei Livelli Essenziali di Assistenza e rappresenta un meccanismo alla cui elaborazione le Regioni partecipano attivamente mediante i propri rappresentanti tecnici.Ma come funzionano queste pagelle messe a punto dal ministero della Salute che vedono il Veneto al top e la Calabria in fondo con la Lombardia che esce dai primissimi posti ma resta comunque ben oltre la sufficienza? Pagelle - ogni Regione per essere promossa deve superare l'asticella dei 60 punti su 100 - che hanno visto nel 2023 otto Regioni con almeno una insufficienza e cioè Valle d'Aosta, Bolzano, Liguria, Abruzzo, Basilicata, Molise, Sicilia e Calabria e che servono tra le altre cose a distribuire i fondi premiali del Fondo sanitario nazionale (circa 600 milioni).Sebastiano Barisoni ha intervistato sul tema Marzio Bartoloni, Il Sole 24 Ore.

Fluent Fiction - Italian: Secrets of the Farnese: Rediscovering a Lost Heirloom in Rome Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/it/episode/2025-02-24-23-34-02-it Story Transcript:It: Luca camminava lentamente attraverso Piazza Navona, il cuore storico di Roma.En: Luca walked slowly through Piazza Navona, the historic heart of Rome.It: L'aria era fredda, tipica di un inverno romano, e piccoli gruppi di turisti si aggiravano tra le fontane barocche e gli artisti di strada.En: The air was cold, typical of a Roman winter, and small groups of tourists wandered among the baroque fountains and street artists.It: Per Luca, la piazza era una meraviglia architettonica, ma c'era anche un altro motivo che lo aveva portato lì: un antico cimelio di famiglia, dato per perso da generazioni, di cui si raccontava fosse riemerso nei pressi della piazza.En: For Luca, the square was an architectural marvel, but there was also another reason that had brought him there: an ancient family heirloom, thought to be lost for generations, was said to have resurfaced near the square.It: Luca era un famoso storico dell'arte, appassionato del Rinascimento, ma in quei giorni cercava qualcosa di più personale.En: Luca was a famous art historian, passionate about the Renaissance, but in those days he was searching for something more personal.It: Sua nonna, prima di morire, gli aveva lasciato vaghi indizi su un oggetto prezioso appartenente alla famiglia, un anello che diceva fosse legato alla famiglia dei Farnese, famosi patroni delle arti.En: His grandmother, before she died, had left him vague clues about a precious family object, a ring she said was connected to the Farnese family, famous patrons of the arts.It: Luca sapeva che non sarebbe stato facile trovarlo, ma non aveva mai rinunciato a una sfida.En: Luca knew it wouldn't be easy to find it, but he had never backed down from a challenge.It: Aveva sentito parlare di Sofia, una guida turistica con una profonda conoscenza della storia della piazza.En: He had heard of Sofia, a tour guide with a deep knowledge of the square's history.It: Decise di contattarla.En: He decided to contact her.It: "Ciao, Sofia," le disse al loro incontro vicino alla Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi.En: "Hello, Sofia," he said when they met near the Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi.It: "Ho bisogno del tuo aiuto.En: "I need your help.It: Cerco un antico anello di famiglia."En: I'm looking for an ancient family ring."It: Gli occhi di Sofia scintillarono interessati.En: Sofia's eyes sparkled with interest.It: "Ci sono molti segreti nascosti in Piazza Navona," rispose.En: "There are many secrets hidden in Piazza Navona," she replied.It: "Ma sarò felice di aiutarti.En: "But I will be happy to help you.It: Da dove iniziamo?"En: Where do we start?"It: Luca le mostrò un foglio piegato, con una mappa e alcune frasi criptiche.En: Luca showed her a folded sheet, with a map and some cryptic phrases.It: Una di queste diceva: "Dove l'acqua scorre, il segreto giace."En: One of them said, "Where the water flows, the secret lies."It: Sofia pensò un attimo e poi indicò la base della fontana.En: Sofia thought for a moment and then pointed to the base of the fountain.It: "Molte leggende parlano di un compartimento segreto nella fontana."En: "Many legends speak of a secret compartment in the fountain."It: Insieme si avvicinarono alla statua centrale.En: Together they approached the central statue.It: Tiravano lievemente una pietra che sembrava leggermente diversa dalle altre.En: They gently pulled on a stone that seemed slightly different from the others.It: Con un click, si aprì un piccolo vano nascosto.En: With a click, a small hidden compartment opened.It: Dentro, avvolto in un panno di seta, c'era l'oggetto tanto cercato: l'anello di famiglia, intatto e splendente.En: Inside, wrapped in a silk cloth, was the much-sought-after object: the family ring, intact and shining.It: "Non ci posso credere," disse Luca con la voce rotta dall'emozione.En: "I can't believe it," said Luca, his voice choked with emotion.It: "È davvero l'anello dei Farnese!"En: "It's really the Farnese ring!"It: Sofia sorrise.En: Sofia smiled.It: "Ma sembra che questo anello nasconda anche altri segreti.En: "But it seems this ring hides other secrets as well.It: Guarda qui," indicò un piccolo foglio ingiallito accanto all'anello.En: Look here," she pointed to a small yellowed sheet next to the ring.It: Era un elenco di nomi e date, alcuni dei quali riconducibili alla famiglia di Luca.En: It was a list of names and dates, some of which related to Luca's family.It: Con l'anello finalmente in mano, Luca prese una decisione.En: With the ring finally in his hand, Luca made a decision.It: Doveva restare a Roma.En: He had to stay in Rome.It: C'era ancora tanto da scoprire sulla sua famiglia, un legame che superava la semplice eredità materiale.En: There was still so much to discover about his family, a connection that surpassed mere material inheritance.It: Mentre il sole tramontava su Piazza Navona, Luca si sentì radicato nella sua storia, determinato a esplorarne ogni angolo.En: As the sun set over Piazza Navona, Luca felt rooted in his history, determined to explore every corner of it.It: Il suo viaggio accademico poteva aspettare; ora iniziava un nuovo capitolo della sua vita, ricco di storie da riscoprire e vite da comprendere.En: His academic journey could wait; now a new chapter of his life was beginning, rich with stories to rediscover and lives to understand.
