The island is home to features like the Apennine Coast, the Adriatic Coast, and the Apennine Mountains. Most of Sardinia's population lives in the capital region of Cagliari, but much of the island remains untouched, offering visitors a glimpse into authentic Italian island life.One of Sardinia's most fascinating distinctions is that the Barbagia region is recognized as a Blue Zone—an area with an unusually high number of centenarians. This longevity is attributed to the region's healthy diet, active lifestyle, and strong sense of community.

These mysterious, tower-like buildings are the island's most iconic symbol, and some scholars believe there were once over 10,000 nuraghe structures in total.Religious architecture also impresses, with highlights like the Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta e Santa Cecilia, the Church of the Holy Trinity of Saccargia, and the Basilica di San Simplicio showcasing Sardinia's spiritual and artistic heritage.Sardinian cuisine reflects its mountainous geography. Surprisingly, for an island, the diet leans more toward land-based ingredients than seafood. Signature dishes include Porceddu (roast pig), Fregola (a traditional Sardinian pasta), and the adventurous Casu marzu—a sheep's milk cheese intentionally infested with live maggots and considered a local delicacy. Sardinia also holds 16 one-star Michelin restaurants.To accompany these flavors, try a glass of Cannonau red wine, known for its high polyphenol content and potential health benefits, or the refreshing Vermentino white wine, perfect for warm Mediterranean days.Tourissimo Tip–Magic Trick or Pasta Making? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/magic-trick-or-pasta-making From the Alps to the Mediterranean, each Italian region is a world of its own.

See some photos and learn more here: https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/letizia-battaglia-groundbreaking-photojournalist-who-fearlessly-documented-the-mafia-in-her-native-sicilySardiniaSardinia, the second-largest island in the Mediterranean after Sicily, is a rugged, rural paradise known for its natural beauty, deep-rooted traditions, and ancient history. The island is home to features like the Apennine Coast, the Adriatic Coast, and the Apennine Mountains. Most of Sardinia's population lives in the capital region of Cagliari, but much of the island remains untouched, offering visitors a glimpse into authentic Italian island life.One of Sardinia's most fascinating distinctions is that the Barbagia region is recognized as a Blue Zone—an area with an unusually high number of centenarians. This longevity is attributed to the region's healthy diet, active lifestyle, and strong sense of community. For outdoor enthusiasts, inland Sardinia offers some of the best biking and hiking experiences in all of Italy.Tourissimo Tip–What is a Blue Zone? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/blue-zoneThe island's coastlines are just as enticing. Costa Smeralda is often described as paradise on earth, with stunning beaches like Spiaggia di Tuerredda, Cala Goloritzé, and Spiaggia di Porto Giunco perfect for sunbathing and swimming. Don't miss the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park (Parco Nazionale dell'Arcipelago di La Maddalena), a protected area with crystal-clear waters and pristine landscapes.Charming towns such as Alghero, Bosa, and Cagliari add to the island's appeal. Many of Sardinia's towns are nestled in the mountains located in the island's center, offering a peaceful and scenic escape.Cultural and historical attractions abound. Must-see sites include the Nora Archaeological Park, Bastione di Saint Remy, Parco Archeologico Naturalistico di Santa Cristina, and the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Cagliari. For an unforgettable natural wonder, venture into the Frecce delle grotte srl and Neptune's Grotto, stunning sea caves accessible by boat or stairs carved into cliffs.Sardinia is also home to a unique ancient civilization. Scattered across the island are over 7,000 nuraghe—megalithic stone structures built during the Nuragic Age (c. 1900–730 BC). These mysterious, tower-like buildings are the island's most iconic symbol, and some scholars believe there were once over 10,000 nuraghe structures in total.Religious architecture also impresses, with highlights like the Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta e Santa Cecilia, the Church of the Holy Trinity of Saccargia, and the Basilica di San Simplicio showcasing Sardinia's spiritual and artistic heritage.Sardinian cuisine reflects its mountainous geography. Surprisingly, for an island, the diet leans more toward land-based ingredients than seafood. Signature dishes include Porceddu (roast pig), Fregola (a traditional Sardinian pasta), and the adventurous Casu marzu—a sheep's milk cheese intentionally infested with live maggots and considered a local delicacy. Sardinia also holds 16 one-star Michelin restaurants.To accompany these flavors, try a glass of Cannonau red wine, known for its high polyphenol content and potential health benefits, or the refreshing Vermentino white wine, perfect for warm Mediterranean days.Tourissimo Tip–Magic Trick or Pasta Making? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/magic-trick-or-pasta-making From the Alps to the Mediterranean, each Italian region is a world of its own.

A TUTTA C con Cristiano Cesarini e Lucio Marinucci. Ospiti: Sebastian Donzella e Matteo Bonacina (Lecco Channel)

Propiedades, empresas, campos vitícolas, Ferraris, maquinaria agrícola, actividades turísticas, pinturas de Salvador Dalí.   Estos son los tipos de bienes que confisca a la mafia italiana la Agencia de Administración y Destinación de los Bienes Secuestrados y Confiscados a la Criminalidad Organizada. Creada en el 2010, las incautaciones de esta agencia han permitido que miles de bienes salgan del circuito ilícito y regresen a las manos de la sociedad civil transformando territorios asediados por la mafia. Este modelo es considerado como un ejemplo en la lucha contra el crimen organizado en Europa y más allá. La legislación antimafia en Italia remonta a los años 60 para tratar de frenar la violencia. Pero la verdadera revolución "llegó con la ley Latorre del 82, porque fue la primera que intentó dar una definición de asociación mafiosa y también confiscar los bienes de la mafia", explica la doctora en geografía especializada en el estudio del crimen organizado, Claudia Palermo.Al definir la asociación mafiosa se puede a la vez definir el proceso de confiscación "que es bastante largo y necesita pasar por diversas etapas". El proceso también puede ser preventivo "cuando se busca evitar que los bienes sean destruidos".Las autoridades se preguntaban qué hacer con todo lo que se recuperaba. Es ahí cuando la sociedad civil se movilizó para que esos bienes tan diversos pudieran ser nuevamente útiles. Todo cambió con la ley 109 86 "impulsada por la Asociación Libera, que se ocupa de antimafia"."Esta ley estableció que esos bienes tenían una importancia y tenían que volver a la sociedad, a la comunidad, para convertirse en algo positivo. Confiscar un bien no es solo una acción económica es una acción social", explica Claudia Palermo, que estudió de cerca el caso de dos ciudades: Bari en el sur y Lecco en el norte de Italia.Desde el 2010, la Agencia de Administración y Destinación de los Bienes Secuestrados y Confiscados a la Criminalidad Organizada rastrea las actividades ilícitas para pegarle en el bolsillo a la mafia. Existen diversas tipologías como bienes inmuebles, empresas y cada tipo de bien se procesa de manera distinta. En el caso de un terreno agrícola por ejemplo,  las asociaciones, tiene que presentar un proyecto de utilización social: "Tenemos ejemplos de campos donde dan empleo o servicio para la comunidad". Recuperar el territorio de las manos de la mafia"Lo interesante es que la confiscación no es solo un componente punitivo sino también simbólico, porque con la confiscación vamos a tomar el poder territorial de la mafia y de lo criminal. Francesco Inzerillo, un jefe mafioso en 2007, durante una conversación con su sobrino en la cárcel de Torino, dijo 'no hay cosa peor que la confiscación de bienes. Lo mejor es marcharse.' Esta reflexión muestra que la importancia de este dispositivo", agrega la investigadora, que insiste en la baja significativa de la violencia gracias a este método puesto que el control territorial es uno de los pilares de la estructura de las mafias.Las cuatro más conocidas en Italia -la siciliana Cosa Nostra, la calabresa  'Ndrangheta, La Camorra de Nápoles y la Sacra Corona Unita de Apulia- extienden sus redes en el territorio italiano y mucho más allá. Es particularmente cierto en el caso de la 'Ndrangheta, cuyos lazos con carteles latinoamericanos han sido establecidos. De hecho, recientemente Italia y México firmaron un convenio de cooperación para luchar contra el tráfico de drogas. Ante la internacionalización de las organizaciones criminales, el modelo italiano se exporta. Es el caso en Argentina donde a finales del 2024 organizaciones llevaron ante el congreso el proyecto de ley "Bien Restituido", inspirado en la distribución social italiana. "Es un ejemplo muy importante, dice Palermo, porque busca adaptar el modelo italiano al contexto argentino. Pero tenemos que decir que en Argentina no tenemos una legislación que quiere definir o dar una definición de asociación criminal o asociación mafiosa." Lo que es indispensable para legislar.La reutilización también se aplica en 19 países en Europa y en Colombia, cada vez adaptando el concepto a la realidad del país y al tipo de actividad de los grupos porque no es lo mismo una mafia, un cartel o el crimen organizado. Si los avances en Italia han sido gigantescos, el precio que ha pagado la sociedad italiana ha sido alto. Basta con enumerar a las personalidades que viven bajo protección policíaca o que han perdido la vida al oponerse al sistema mafioso.

MILANO (ITALPRESS) - "La medicina di genere non è una medicina o per uomini o per donne, ma per ogni persona, basata sulle scienze delle differenze.

Consonno, la città fantasma in provincia di Lecco, è un luogo celebre in Italia. Negli anni '60, il conte Mario Bagno, imprenditore edile, trasformò questo piccolo borgo contadino in una “Las Vegas italiana”. Hotel, ristoranti e attrazioni sostituirono le vecchie case, ma frane e cattiva gestione ambientale portarono al suo abbandono definitivo. In questo episodio della serie “Assurdo ma vero”, Stefano Gandelli ci racconta le cause del crollo di questo sogno ambizioso e ci mostra cosa resta oggi della città abbandonata di Consonno.

Il gol all'ultimo assalto  permette a biancorossi di dimezzare il gap dal Padova sconfitto nel derby con Virtus Verona. A segno il difensore Leverbe, poi espulso per eccesso di esultanza. Per la squadra di Vecchi ora due domeniche con la terza e la prima in classifica all'orizzonte. Torna a vincere l'Arzignano dopo quattro turni: 2-0 al Lecco, con Milillo e Jallow a segno.

Inauguriamo il nuovo anno con il weekend di Supercoppa a Catania: la Roma alza il trofeo Under 19, mentre la Meta padrona di casa (stra)vince la Final Four dei "grandi" con due nette vittorie, prima 7-1 in semifinale con il Lecco e poi 8-2 nella finalissima contro il Napoli, che aveva battuto la Roma 3-1. Analizziamo le quattro partite e le critiche a un formato che ha fatto discutere.

La settima stagione del podcast "Le tue ali on air" riparte con la prima puntata del 2025 sulle infrastrutture. Non solo quelle invisibili, ma anche quelle fisiche, rotaie e strade. Alessandra Giavazzi intervista Riccardo Riva, coordinatore del Gruppo tecnico infrastrutture di Confindustria Lecco e Sondrio, per fare il punto sui territori di Lecco e Sondrio.

Alberto Magatti"I girasoli di Isabelle"Cinquesensi Editorewww.cinquesensieditore.itAlberto Magatti annoda con sapiente delicatezza il tema della prostituzione giovanile consumata tra le mura domestiche con la conseguente sofferenza psicologica che nel caso di Isabelle si manifesta nell'anoressia. Gli ingredienti centrali dell'amore, dell'amicizia e del lavoro in fabbrica sono amalgamati da una buona dose di speranza e di saggezza qui incarnati soprattutto da Marcella, la governante della famiglia di Matteo che segue le vicende con occhio e calore materni.I mondi dei due protagonisti, distanti tra loro anni luce, si intrecciano in una trama che si complica con una tinta di giallo che conduce a un finale sofferto ed imprevedibile. Una scrittura semplice e dettagliata aiuta il lettore ad entrare passo dopo passo nelle vite di due giovani che nel tentativo di superare un passato infelice, metteranno tutto il loro amore nella ricerca di una agognata felicità.La tranquillizzante vetrina di un negozio di fiori cela un mondo ‘altro'.La protagonista del romanzo, Isabelle è segnata da una menomazione fisica, e ancor di più, da una madre che la avvia adolescente alla prostituzione. Una donna spietata che usa la figlia per un bieco attaccamento al denaro. Dentro a quel negozio gli avventori sono distinti signori dalla reputazione inattaccabile che cercano qualcosa di diverso dai fiori.Isabelle non è fatta per quella vita.Il destino le farà incontrare Matteo, giovane rampollo di una famiglia di industriali. Lui se ne innamora a prima vista, superando ogni pregiudizio fisico e sociale.Il racconto si svolge tra la periferia di Milano e un anonimo paesino sul Lago di Como.Alberto Magatti15 settembre 1964, Mandello del Lario, Lago di Como.Imprenditore impegnato per 45 anni nella conduzione dell'azienda di famiglia nel settore della meccanica di precisione, settore nel quale ha ricoperto ruoli di responsabilità nelle associazioni territoriali.

Nelle aree interne la crisi demografica corre a velocità doppia rispetto al trend nazionale. Dal Comune più piccolo (Morterone, 34 abitanti al 1° gennaio 2024, in provincia di Lecco) a quello più popoloso (Gela, 70.811 abitanti, in provincia di Caltanissetta), i territori interni segnano una perdita di residenti del 5% sul 2014, contro il 2,2% della media nazionale. In particolare, quelli più periferici - secondo le classificazioni Istat - registrano un calo ancora più marcato:- 7,7% , sempre nel decennio.Le strategie per mantenere vive le cosiddette aree interne, di contro, languono o sono poco concrete: per esempio, nel Ddl di Bilancio 2025 è scomparso il contributo per i piccoli Comuni, con una popolazione sotto i 1.000 abitanti, in tutto 1.383 tra quelli censiti nelle aree interne del Paese. Mentre i fondi per finanziare i progetti del piano nazionale per la riqualificazione dei piccoli Comuni, secondo la graduatoria pubblicata ad agosto, hanno coperto solo il 45% delle domande presentate. Nelle aree interne si trova il 48% dei Comuni italiani, dove vivono 13,6 milioni di persone e quindi poco meno di un quarto della popolazione italiana.Il commento di Michela Finizio, Il Sole24Ore, intervenuta a Focus Economia.Meloni ai sindacati: interverremo ancora su IrpefÈ iniziata a Palazzo Chigi la riunione fra governo e sindacati sul disegno di legge di bilancio presieduta dalla premier Giorgia Meloni. Per i sindacati sono presenti i rappresentanti di Cgil, Cisl, Uil, Ugl, Usb, Cida, Cisal, Confedir, Confintesa, Confsal, Ciu e Cse.La manovra punta alla crescita dell'Italia e non a ottenere voti. La premier Meloni presenta così ai sindacati la Legge di Bilancio per il 2025. 'Un cambio di passo rispetto al passato, quando si è preferito adottare misure più utili a raccogliere consenso nell'immediato che a gettare le basi per una crescita duratura, scaricando il costo di quelle misure su chi sarebbe venuto dopo', aggiunge. La presidente del Consiglio rivendica al governo 'il coraggio che ha consentito di poter far partecipare banche e assicurazioni alla copertura' della manovra: 'un grande cambiamento rispetto al passato, quando invece con la legge di Bilancio si trovavano le risorse per sostenere banche e assicurazioni, e nessuno invocava la rivolta sociale', attacca con riferimento alle parole del segretario generale della Cgil Landini. Cgil e Uil hanno confermato però lo sciopero generale contro la manovra il 29 novembre. Lo hanno detto i segretari generali di Cgil e Uil, Maurizio Landini e Pierpaolo Bombardieri, al termine dell incontro con il governo a Palazzo ChigiGianni Trovati, de Il Sole 24 Ore, è intervenuto ai microfoni di Sebastiano Barisoni.Cresce l'influenza di Musk sulla transizione presidenziale Usa e il bitcoin tocca nuovi recordSecondo la Cnn, che cita fonti vicine al team del prossimo presidente degli Stati Uniti, il miliardario americano Elon Musk esercita un'influenza sempre maggiore sulla transizione presidenziale di Donald Trump. Il patron di Tesla, X e SpaceX è stato visto nel resort Mar-a-Lago di Palm Beach, in Florida, quasi ogni giorno da quando Trump ha vinto le elezioni la scorsa settimana, cenando con lui nel patio alcune sere e frequentando la sua famiglia la domenica sul campo da golf, riporta l'emittente sul suo sito. Musk era presente quando diversi leader mondiali hanno telefonato a Trump e ha contribuito alle decisioni sul personale, persino esprimendo chiaramente le sue preferenze per alcuni ruoli. Musk era con Trump a Mar-a-Lago quando il presidente ucraino Volodymyr Zelensky ha chiamato per congratularsi con il presidente eletto il giorno dopo le elezioni, secondo una fonte informata sulla telefonata.Nel frattempo il Bitcoin continua la sua ascesa e sale sopra gli 83mila dollari segnando così l'ennesimo record sulla spinta dell'appoggio esplicito del prossimo presidente Usa Trump. La corsa del Bitcoin si inserisce nel generale aumento di tutto il comparto delle cripto che Trump ora supporta dopo averlo definito una truffa in passato e dal quale è stato generosamente finanziato durante la campagna elettorale. Un cambio di passo che potrebbe portare a una legislazione più favorevole negli Stati Uniti e a uno sguardo più benevolo da parte della Sec, intervenuta più volte dopo diversi fallimenti e truffe da parte di operatori.Il commento di Alessandro Plateroti, Direttore di NewsMondo.it.Il nuovo commissario Ue chiude a biofuel per le auto, 'non fanno parte del mix'La scorsa settimana, il commissario europeo per il Clima e responsabile anche in materia di tassazione, Wopke Hoekstra, in occasione della sua riconferma all'Euparlamento ha riaffermato i piani della Ue di porre fine alle vendite di automobili che emettono CO2 nel 2035 e di inasprire i limiti di emissioni il prossimo anno, il che equivale a vietare i nuovi motori diesel e benzina. A una domanda dell eurodeputata Silvia Sardone, ha escluso qualsiasi modifica alle attuali norme sulle emissioni ed è stata questa anche la sua risposta alla richiesta dei governi e delle case automobilistiche di riconsiderate urgentemente le politiche green. L olandese, che era subentrato al connazionale Frans Timmermans, ha partecipato all audizione di conferma al Parlamento europeo organizzata dalle commissioni per l Ambiente, l Industria e gli Affari economici. Quanto al crollo delle vendite di auto elettriche che ha impedito alle case automobilistiche di raggiungere tali obiettivi, il commissario che ieri è stato confermato ha risposto minimizzando. A ottobre l Acea, l Associazione dei costruttori di automobili europei aveva invitato le istituzioni «a introdurre misure di sostegno urgenti». Hoekstra, senza nominare aziende specifiche, ha replicato che «molti amministratori delegati di case automobilistiche con cui ho parlato mi hanno detto che avrebbero potuto raggiungere gli obiettivi prefissati».La vera doccia fredda per l'Italia è arrivata però sui biocarburanti: «La realtà è che non possono far parte del mix per il settore auto perché è difficile renderli completamente neutrali dal punto di vista delle emissioni». Le regole Ue, ha ricordato, prevedono solo la possibilità dell uso degli elettrocarburanti.David Chiaramonti, docente di Ingegneria energetica e nucleare e vice prorettore per l'Internazionalizzazione del Politecnico di Torino.

Via del Amore: We announce the reopening of the iconic Via del Amore after a 12-year restoration, advising listeners to avoid peak seasons when visiting Cinque Terre to escape the crowds and enjoy a more peaceful experience. Exploring Lago di Como: Varena: Known for its tranquility, stunning villas, botanical gardens, and boat rentals, Verena is highly recommended for a serene escape. Day Trips: Our recommendations for day trips include Varenna and Lecco, with Varenna offering notable attractions and Lecco providing a charming, less crowded alternative with scenic nearby villages. Bellagio: We discuss the heavy tourist traffic in Bellagio, primarily due to its single main street, and suggest visiting during off-peak times for a more enjoyable experience. Quieter Villages: Lezzeno, Nesso, Pognana Lario, and Faggeto Lario (the “Lario twins”) are highlighted for their peaceful ambiance, offering a break from the more tourist-heavy areas. Historical Context: We share a fascinating tidbit about the lake's name change from Lago di Lario to Lago di Como, adding depth to the cultural understanding of the region. Navigating Boat Schedules: We emphasize the importance of mastering the complex boat schedules to ensure a tranquil visit, with tips on rental options and enjoying the breathtaking views. Torno: Tommaso and I reminisce about our fond memories in Torno, noting its charming church, serene cemetery reminiscent of Pere Lachaise in Paris, and the luxurious Serrano hotel.

Consonno. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consonno Un borgo che per qualche anno è diventato una favolosa città dei balocchi, un sogno diventato realtà di un conte. Ma poi? Come è andata a finire? Abbiamo nominato alcuni luoghi durante questa sezione: Lecco https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lecco Resegone https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resegone Dopo la provincia di Lecco scneidamo più a sud, precisamente in Puglia, in un piccolo borgo. Ma quanto è reale questo piccolo borgo? E perché ci stiamo andando? Ma soprattutto, perché hanno costruito un resort di super lusso come se fosse un borgo? Molti borghi italiani potrebbero dire che non serve andare in un resort di lusso, basta visitare un borgo dei tantissimi in giro per l'Italia, e in questo modo l'esperienza sarebbe molto molto più reale e interessante. Concludiamo con un musicista italiano molto famoso in Italia per le sue canzoni pop, ma non è solo un autore di "canzonette", è anche un chitarrista bravissimo che ha suonato con grandi musicisti, nazionali e internazionali. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Britti E voi cosa ne pensate?

Ben Pastor"La fossa dei lupi"o come proseguono i Promessi SposiMondadori Editorewww.mondadori.itRenzo, Lucia, Don Abbondio, l'Innominato sono i grandi e indimenticabili personaggi de I promessi sposi... Ma cosa succede quando ce li ritroviamo davanti a tre anni di distanza dall'inizio delle loro avventure nel novembre del 1628? Che sorpresa: economicamente sistemati, in attesa di un figlio, mentre Milano si rialza dopo i disastri della peste. Andrebbe tutto bene se il loro persecutore pentito, al secolo Bernardino Visconti, non venisse assassinato nei monti sopra Lecco, in un luogo impervio dove si dà la caccia ai lupi. Perché? Qualcuno forse non gli ha perdonato le antiche malefatte? Tutto si complica nuovamente, e questa volta a causa di un'indagine affidata al giovane luogotenente di giustizia Diego Antonio de Olivares. Il sospetto aleggia dentro e fuori una Milano dai fetidi bassifondi, tra miracoli veri o falsi, attentati e vendette. Ben Pastor ci guida con mano sicura lungo le strade che portano al confine veneto, rispondendo a domande che forse avevamo fin dalla giovinezza: il pavido curato Don Abbondio ha imparato la sua lezione? Renzo è ancora impulsivo? Cosa può la giustizia dello Stato italo-spagnolo contro la violenza di un omicidio eccellente, che qualcuno forse non vuole far risolvere? Ci imbattiamo nei "bravi" restati senza impiego, nel caso criminale della Monaca di Monza, e in una signora elusiva e affascinante come Donna Polissena, in possesso di qualcosa che aiuterà un sempre più ammirato Olivares a sciogliere l'enigma. E a dirimere, per quanto possibile, il conflitto fra carne e spirito che gli fa desiderare l'amore a portata di mano, ma anche vagheggiare una vita religiosa e il martirio in terre lontane. Nella magistrale ricostruzione di Ben Pastor, vivida, potente e ironica, i personaggi manzoniani tornano in vita con una fedeltà che ce li fa riconoscere all'istante. Chiunque abbia letto I promessi sposi e si sia chiesto che cosa sarebbe potuto accadere dopo la conclusione del romanzo, tra queste pagine troverà una risposta.Ben Pastor, scrittrice italoamericana, all'anagrafe Maria Verbena Volpi, nata a Roma ma trasferitasi ben presto negli Stati Uniti, ha insegnato Scienze sociali presso le università dell'Ohio, dell'Illinois e del Vermont. Oltre a Lumen, Luna bugiarda, Kaputt Mundi, La canzone del cavaliere, Il morto in piazza, La Venere di Salò,  Il cielo di stagno, - ovvero il ciclo del soldato-detective Martin Bora (pubblicati da Hobby&Work a partire dal 2001 e poi da Sellerio) - è autrice di I misteri di Praga (2002), La camera dello scirocco, omaggi in giallo alla cultura mitteleuropea di Kafka e Roth (Hobby &Work), nonché de Il ladro d'acqua (Frassinelli 2007), La voce del fuoco (Frassinelli 2008), Le vergini di pietra e La traccia del vento (Hobby & Work 2012), una serie di quattro thriller ambientata nel IV secolo dopo Cristo.Nel 2006 ha vinto il Premio Internazionale Saturno d'oro come migliore scrittrice di romanzi storici.

Era chiaro che sarebbe arrivato il giorno in cui avremmo avuto due presidenti in un solo episodio. Per questo infatti è venuto a trovarci Matteo De Zaiacomo, che da qualche mese ha assunto il ruolo di presidente del grande gruppo dei ragni di Lecco. "Giga" è un alpinista anomalo che ama le grandi spedizioni quanto il boulder solitario. E dobbiamo ammetterlo, non abbiamo mai riso così tanto! Una chiacchierata che spazia dai momenti più profondi che una cordata può vivere in montagna agli aneddoti più ridicoli. Ma sempre con il marchio che definisce il nostro Matteo: non prendersi troppo sul serio. Un paletto saldo della sua fantastica carriera alpinistica. ............................................................................

La prima parte della nostra trasmissione è dedicata all'attualità. Commenteremo la richiesta, piuttosto dibattuta, della Corte penale internazionale, di emettere i mandati di arresto per il primo ministro israeliano e il leader di Hamas, responsabili di crimini di guerra e crimini contro l'umanità. Discuteremo, poi, della visita in Spagna del Presidente argentino di estrema destra, che ha portato i due Paesi a una resa dei conti diplomatica. Nella parte dedicata alla scienza, analizzeremo i risultati di uno studio che offre un approccio innovativo alla lotta all'obesità: la ricompensa di un incentivo in denaro per perdere peso. E, infine, faremo alcune riflessioni sulla decisione del Vaticano di esercitare un maggior controllo sulle questioni legate ai fenomeni soprannaturali.   Cominceremo con una notizia che nei giorni scorsi ha fatto molto discutere sia gli ambienti della politica che la società civile: la proposta di Matteo Salvini, Ministro delle Infrastrutture e dei Trasporti e leader della Lega, di ripristinare il servizio di leva militare obbligatoria. Concluderemo con una notizia che riguarda una delle opere d'arte più famose al mondo: la Monna Lisa. Un recente studio, che combina scienza e storia dell'arte, suggerisce che il paesaggio dipinto da Leonardo da Vinci potrebbe essere quello del Lago Garlate, situato vicino alla città di Lecco. - La Corte penale Internazionale chiede i mandati di arresto per i leader di Israele e Hamas - La Spagna richiama il suo ambasciatore a Buenos Aires per consultazioni a tempo indeterminato - Incentivi in denaro aiutano gli uomini obesi a perdere peso - Il Vaticano fissa nuove linee guida sui presunti fenomeni soprannaturali - Matteo Salvini rilancia l'idea della leva obbligatoria - Monna Lisa: un nuovo studio collega il dipinto al Lago Garlate
