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.

We in North America tend to have a romanticized view of the mafia, but for the locals, the history is more brutal. 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.

Malerische Orte, weiß getünchte Häuser, Traumstrände, hervorragendes Essen, der beste Kaffee der Welt und alles, was man von Italien will, in einer Ecke dieses wundervollen Landes, die überraschend entspannt ist - und das trotz großer Namen wie Bari, Monopoli oder unserem Geheimtipp: Lecce. Wir sagen: In den kleinen Orten liegt Italiens Herz. Auf den verträumten Plätzen, in den engen Gässchen, uralten Kathedralen, malerischen Häfen und den herrlich unaufgeregten, herzlichen Menschen. All das gibt es im „Absatz“ des italienischen Stiefels, ganz im Süden also, der uns betört hat und auch immer wieder überrascht. Sei es mit phantasievollen Eissorten, einer Steilküste, die der in Irland oder Schottland in nichts nachsteht, mysteriösen Grotten und Minuten später mit Italien-Pop der 80er und legendärer Orecchiette-Pasta. Alles in einer Gegend, in der manchmal ein wenig die Zeit stehen geblieben zu sein scheint. Bock auf einen Traum-Sommer oder ein Winter-Escape? Auf perfektes Wetter im Frühling oder im Herbst? Auf bestes Essen, süße Teilchen, coole Bars den maximalen Chill-Faktor und Wein ohne Ende? Dann kommt mit uns in den Süden unseres Sehnsuchtslandes: Italien. Unsere Werbepartner findet ihr HIER.

In questo nuovo episodio de La Formica, parliamo di un tema fondamentale per il futuro delle nostre finanze: l'educazione finanziaria per i bambini.Quando è il momento giusto per iniziare? E come possiamo insegnare loro a gestire il denaro in modo sano e consapevole? Siamo tutti d'accordo che la conoscenza sia un investimento cruciale, come diceva Benjamin Franklin, ma come possiamo iniziare a trasmetterla ai più piccoli? Alcuni esperti suggeriscono che l'educazione finanziaria possa partire già a 3-4 anni, con concetti semplici come il valore del denaro e il risparmio.Scopriremo insieme a quale età è possibile avviare questi insegnamenti, come unire il gioco alla pratica e coinvolgere i bambini in attività quotidiane che li preparino a un futuro economico sereno. Affronteremo anche esempi pratici, come l'uso di un libretto di risparmio o la partecipazione alla gestione del budget familiare.Vi parleremo di come attività divertenti, come giochi da tavolo come Monopoli, possano aiutarli a capire concetti complessi in modo ludico. Condivideremo anche le esperienze di grandi investitori, come Warren Buffett, che ha iniziato a risparmiare e investire da giovanissimo, e vi spiegheremo perché è importante parlare apertamente di denaro con i bambini, trasmettendo valori come l'etica del denaro e l'importanza delle scelte responsabili. Infine, esploreremo come le diverse culture, come quella giapponese o nordica, abbiano integrato l'educazione finanziaria nei programmi scolastici, dando un'importanza fondamentale a questa materia.Unisciti a noi per scoprire come possiamo contribuire a creare una nuova generazione più consapevole e preparata a gestire il proprio futuro finanziario, facendo della saggezza economica un valore condiviso e trasmesso con naturalezza.

Resta il liceo è la scelta preferita dalle famiglie per i figli o le figlie che a settembre frequenteranno il primo anno della scuola secondaria di secondo grado, cioè le superiori. Il Lazio è la regione con la percentuale maggiore di iscritti al liceo, scelto da sette studenti su dieci. Ci spiega perché Mario Rusconi, presidente associazione nazionale presidi di Roma e preside dell'istituto paritario Pio. In Veneto invece le iscrizioni agli istituti tecnici sfiorano il 40 per cento, seguito da Friuli Venezia Giulia, Emilia Romagna, Lombardia e Piemonte. Al sud, in Puglia le iscrizioni ai tecnici sono sotto la media, ma non di molto. “Le aziende ci chiedono i nominativi dei ragazzi a scuola” - ci racconta la dirigente scolastica Teresa Loiotile, dell'istituto tecnico Sante Longo di Monopoli, in provincia di Bari. Per quanto riguarda invece gli istituti professionali, superano il 17 per cento in Emilia Romagna, in Veneto siamo al 15 per cento. Sopra la media anche Toscana e Lombardia. E aumentano gli iscritti ai percorsi quadriennali avviati con la riforma del 4+2: sono 5.400, più del triplo dello scorso anno, quando era partita la sperimentazione. A Milano sono 230 i nuovi iscritti ai percorsi di istruzione e formazione professionale di CAPAC, il Politecnico del Commercio e del Turismo ente formativo di riferimento di Confcommercio Milano, Lodi Monza e Brianza, il numero più alto dal 2018. Un dato per niente scontato visto che la popolazione scolastica sta costantemente diminuendo a causa della denatalità, come ci spiega il presidente di CAPAC, Simonpaolo Buongiardino.

Non si arresta la crociata dell'Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità nei confronti del consumo di alcolici. Dopo aver reso noti nel giugno del 2024 i dati aggiornati del “Rapporto Globale su alcol e salute e sul trattamento dei disturbi da uso di sostanze” evidenziando l'aggravarsi dello scenario e la conseguente necessità di intervenire per arginarne gli effetti, l'OMS ha diffuso un nuovo report questa volta dedicato specificamente a quel Vecchio Continente dove i livelli di consumo di alcol sarebbero rimasti sostanzialmente invariati per oltre un decennio, rendendola la sotto regione più a rischio. Il nuovo studio dal titolo “Monopoli nordici dell'alcol: comprendere il loro ruolo in una politica globale sull'alcol e l'importanza per la salute pubblica” analizza il modello diffuso negli ultimi anni in Finlandia, Islanda, Norvegia, Svezia e Isole Faroe da un lato per dimostrare concretamente come la struttura del sistema di distribuzione al dettaglio di alcolici influisca significativamente sulle vendite degli stessi, dall'altro per promuoverlo quale importante benchmark da cui altri paesi dell'UE potrebbero trarre ispirazione.

Se novi ameriški predsednik šali? Pravi, da bo kupil bo Grenlandijo, zahteval vrnitev Panamskega prekopa, iz Gaze bo naredil sredozemsko riviero, medtem pa bosta prijateljska Egipt in Jordanija poskrbela za dva milijona Palestincev. Kot bi igral igro Monopoli, soigralci pa so prijateljske države. Kljub temu nekateri v njem vidijo odrešitelja. Na primer oblasti v Srbiji ali države, ki težko sledijo sankcijam proti Rusiji. Kakor koli, odkar je Donald Trump spet v Beli hiši, svet ni nič lepši, a upajmo, da se juha ne poje tako vroča, kot se skuha. O tem in še čem bomo govorili v Labirintih sveta. Tokrat bo z vami Marjan Vešligaj.

Le frustrazioni di una grossa fetta dell'elettorato derivano dalla marcata accentuazione di un autoritarismo strisciante nei paesi occidentali che erode i diritti individuali e favorisce gli abusi di potere commessi da istituzioni pubbliche e imprese private.E' urgente attribuire agli individui strumenti efficaci, rapidi e gratuiti per tutelare i propri interessi e tagliare le unghie a chi gode di posizioni dominanti, burocrati, monopoli, banche, assicurazioni, servizi pubblici eccetera.

BARI (ITALPRESS) - Torna PhEST, il festival internazionale di fotografia e arte. La nona edizione animerà dal 30 agosto al 3 novembre Monopoli con un programma suggestivo, incentrato sul tema del sogno. A margine della conferenza stampa di presentazione, il direttore generale del Dipartimento Turismo, Economia della Cultura, Valorizzazione del Territorio della Regione Puglia, Aldo Patruno, ha sottolineato che quella appena trascorsa è stata "un'estate clamorosa dal punto di vista degli eventi culturali, di spettacolo e festa". Per il direttore, il PhEST "apre una stagione che consolida sempre di più la Puglia quale destinazione turistico-culturale di eccellenza. Un festival internazionale dedicato alla fotografia, una delle forme di espressione dell'arte più forti, più significative. È giunto alla nona edizione e quando si va verso i dieci anni vuol dire che l'evento si è radicato nel territorio, ha saputo intercettare il bisogno culturale di questa Regione e non soltanto di Monopoli. E quest'anno va ad affrontare un tema impegnativo, il tema del sogno: dopo tante branche della cultura e dell'arte esplorate in questi anni, oggi si va ad esplorare il tema più complesso, il sogno, nel centesimo anniversario del Manifesto del surrealismo di André Breton, con una mostra straordinaria dedicata a Man Ray, che è stato uno degli interpreti più significativi di questo filone d'arte. Da parte mia, in nome della Regione e del presidente Emiliano va un ringraziamento profondo alla squadra straordinaria, giovanissima, molto sul pezzo e orientata alla ricerca che ha lavorato in questi anni a questa iniziativa che ormai possiamo considerare una di quelle di riferimento del palinsesto culturale e turistico della nostra della nostra Regione, in una città che turisticamente sta esplodendo e ha scelto di orientare il suo successo turistico su una prospettiva di qualità di cui questa manifestazione è una delle massime espressioni". xa2/vbo/gsl

BARI (ITALPRESS) - Torna PhEST, il festival internazionale di fotografia e arte. La nona edizione animerà dal 30 agosto al 3 novembre Monopoli con un programma suggestivo, incentrato sul tema del sogno. A margine della conferenza stampa di presentazione, il direttore generale del Dipartimento Turismo, Economia della Cultura, Valorizzazione del Territorio della Regione Puglia, Aldo Patruno, ha sottolineato che quella appena trascorsa è stata "un'estate clamorosa dal punto di vista degli eventi culturali, di spettacolo e festa". Per il direttore, il PhEST "apre una stagione che consolida sempre di più la Puglia quale destinazione turistico-culturale di eccellenza. Un festival internazionale dedicato alla fotografia, una delle forme di espressione dell'arte più forti, più significative.

Stepping through the cobblestone streets of my ancestral town, I was embraced by whispers of my past, the tales and traditions of my Italian heritage echoing around me. Now, I invite you to join Jerry Taverna and me through a riveting journey of discovery, from sulfur mines in Sicily and old family stories from Monopoli become living chapters of our rich collective history. Jerry unveils the profound impact his ancestry has had on his life, which led to his involvement in Mike Cavalieri's film premiere, an homage to the struggles and triumphs of the Italian spirit.With laughter and a few unexpected confessions, we recount the joys and follies of childhood, the remarkable work ethic inherited from our immigrant families, and the deeply resonant experience of setting foot in the very places that cradled our forebears. Our conversation weaves through the fabric of Italian life, from the nurturing embrace of family meals to the importance of preserving our cultural roots against the relentless march of time. We also explore the significance of our naming customs, a reflection of identity and lineage, as we navigate the sometimes humorous, sometimes poignant implications they carry.Our exchange culminates in a heartfelt reflection on the Italian-American experience, touching on the poignant legacy of Italian POWs in Boston and the enduring bonds of community within cultural organizations. We also celebrate the courage of friends from the St. Joseph's Society, embarking on a new chapter as restaurant owners in Sicily, demonstrating the magnetic pull of our origins. This episode is an ode to the threads that weave the tapestry of our family histories, an invitation to explore the profound connections that shape who we are. Join us for an auditory feast that promises to nourish your soul and perhaps inspire you to seek out the stories within your own lineage.Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!

Se vi chiedo di descrivere cosa è un gioco, come lo descrivereste? Quali sono gli elementi che caratterizzano quello che noi chiamiamo gioco?TRASCRIZIONE [Eng translation below]Qualche tempo fa mi è stato chiesto di descrivere, di dare una definizione di gioco. Ci ho pensato. Non è una cosa semplice, una cosa che è difficile descrivere in termini oggettivi, che si può descrivere solo raccontando, o per lo meno io mi sono trovato a descriverlo raccontando quello che provo quando gioco.Ho cominciato col dire che per me gioco è una cosa che faccio volontariamente, è che non sono obbligata a fare, una cosa che faccio volontariamente e che mi dà piacere nel farlo.Ma questo non non descrive solo il gioco, descrive anche tante altre cose, che ne so una passeggiata, accarezzare il mio gatto.Il gioco ha una componente di difficoltà e di sfida perché possiamo definire gioco solo qualcosa che richiede la nostra attenzione e un certo grado di bravura nel farlo. È qualcosa che bisogna saper fare, e che quando si riesce a fare dà un senso di soddisfazione, appunto perché ci si è riusciti.Non lo so se questo descrive bene il concetto di gioco. Sto continuando a pensarci mentre parlo e come sempre quando si tratta dei 3 minuti grezzi, non mi preparo, quindi non sono andata a cercarmi definizioni di gioco, veramente sto andando così a braccio e chiedendomi: ma che differenza c'è tra giocare a Monopoli, che è un gioco che non mi piace tra l'altro, perché non mi piace Monopoli? Perché da bambina giocavo ed ero sempre triste, ero triste quando perdevo perché perdevo, ero triste quando vincevo, perché mi dispiaceva che gli altri perdessero, quindi non è un gioco che fa per me, così come non è un gioco che fa per me Risiko non mi è mai piaciuto.Quindi dicevo sì, che differenza c'è tra giocare a Monopoli e accarezzare il mio gatto? È che giocare a Monopoli non so come finirà, vabbè, anche accarezzare il mio gatto non so come finirà perché potrebbe alzarsi e potrebbe graffiarmi, quindi forse questa non è una definizione giusta, anche se sento che l'elemento dell'essere sconosciuto, del mistero, diciamo, è una cosa insita nel gioco.Non lo so. Sto pensando ad altri elementi che possono caratterizzare il gioco e una possibile definizione. C'è la soddisfazione per averlo fatto, quel certo livello di bravura, e poi il fatto che non me l'ha detto il medico di farlo, anche se i medici dovrebbero prescrivere giochi perché giocare fa bene, ne sono convinta, non ho prove, ma ne sono convinta.TRANSLATIONSome time ago I was asked to describe, to give a definition of game. I thought about it. It is not an easy thing, something that is difficult to describe in objective terms, that can only be described by telling, or at least I found myself describing it by telling how I feel when I play.I started by saying that for me a game is something that I do voluntarily, it's something that I don't have to do, it's something that I do voluntarily and it gives me pleasure in doing it.But this does not only describe a game, it also describes many other things, for example going for a walk, petting my cat.The game has an element of difficulty and challenge because we can only define game something that requires our attention and a certain degree of skill in doing it. It is something that you have to be able to do, and when you succeed it gives a sense of satisfaction, for the fact that you have succeeded.I don't know if that describes the concept of the game well. I'm still thinking about it as I'm talking and as always when it comes to this 3 minutes podcast, I don't prepare anything, so I didn't go looking for game definitions, really I'm going so off the cuff and wondering: what's the difference between playing Monopoly, which is a game that I don't like by the way, why I don't like Monopoly? Because as a child I used to play and I was always sad, I was sad when I lost because I lost, I was sad when I won because I was sorry that other people lost, so it's not a game for me, just as it's not a game for me Risk was never my thing.So I was saying yes, what is the difference between playing Monopoly and petting my cat? It's just that playing Monopoly I don't know how it's going to end, oh well, also while petting my cat I don't know how it's going to end because it might get up and it might scratch me, so maybe that's not a fair definition, although I feel that the element of being unknown, of mystery, let's say, is something inherent in a game.I don't know. I am thinking about other elements that can characterise a game and a possible definition. There's the satisfaction of doing it, that certain level of skill, and then the fact that the doctor didn't prescribe me to paly, even though doctors should actually prescribe games because playing is good for you, I'm convinced of it, I don't have proof, but I'm convinced of it.

Omar Di Monopoli"In principio era la Bestia"Feltrinelli Editorewww.feltrinellieditore.itGennaio 1799, dintorni di Taranto. Mentre ribollono i moti giacobini, viene ritrovato il corpo senza testa della vecchia Narda Stumicusa, mammana e fattucchiera.Al delitto fanno seguito misteriosi avvistamenti di una creatura demoniaca – ululati raggelanti nel cuore della notte, feroci aggressioni ad animali – e, un anno più tardi, un'altra morte violenta: la carcassa mutilata di un viandante viene scoperta nel fitto della vegetazione.Con il secondo omicidio nella comunità corrono le voci sull'esistenza di una pericolosa fiera e gli abitanti iniziano a barricarsi in casa, finché da Napoli una pattuglia di dragoni del re – accompagnati dal naturalista James Fenimonte – viene inviata in Terra d'Otranto per indagare.Nel popolo c'è chi afferma di aver veduto la Bestia, una sorta di grosso lupo, qualcun altro invece dice che i fatti di sangue sono da ascrivere al brigante Malesano.In una Puglia ancora stordita dai fumi della Repubblica Napoletana, divisa fra sostenitori giacobini e conservatori realisti, il gruppo inizia le ricerche e nei sotterranei della chiesa rintraccia ed esamina il corpo di Narda, semimummificato sotto uno strato di calce. Quindi, conversa con i due fratelli che hanno scoperto il secondo cadavere, le cui spoglie sono state immediatamente bruciate sul posto.L'indagine si rivela molto presto la scoperta di un mondo di profonde diseguaglianze in cui violenza, superstizione, sentimento del sacro ed esoterismo convivono con razionalità e rigore.Attraverso gli occhi dei soldati forestieri giunti dalla capitale, Omar Di Monopoli disvela la straordinarietà di un territorio irrisolto: un viaggio affascinante e oscuro al termine dell'Illuminismo, in un Sud indomito e mannaro.Avvistamenti della creatura colorarono i racconti d'ogni bettola e misteriosi attacchi a greggi e stabbi e pollai furono per mesi all'ordine del giorno.L'estate successiva, stroncata nel sangue la ribellione dei repubblichini e restaurato il potere retrivo col ritorno sul trono del monarca borbonico, la Bestia tornò a colpire.Omar Di MonopoliNato nel 1971 a Bologna da famiglia pugliese, Omar Di Monopoli ha esordito nel 2007 con il romanzo Uomini e cani (premio Kihlgren 2008, recentemente rieditato per i tipi di Adelphi), cui ha fatto seguito Ferro e fuoco (2008), La legge di Fonzi (2010) e la raccolta di racconti Aspettati l'inferno (2014) – tutti pubblicati da Isbn edizioni.Nel 2017 ha pubblicato per Adelphi il noir Nella perfida terra di Dio, tradotto all'estero, trasposto in fumetto per Sergio Bonelli editore.Insegna scrittura creativa per la Scuola Holden.

Telefonica con Nicolò Falcone, campione del mondo di Monopoli.

L'epopea della guerra che mette Francesco Totti contro Hilary Blasi è solo quella che esemplarmente incarna uno scontro che anche per i comuni mortali è sempre più frequente, le statistiche e le indagini dicono che l'infedeltà è in aumento e che una volta che il sospetto del tradimento diventa certezza si scatena la ricerca della pistola fumante per addebitare all'altro separazione e divorzio. Dai test di paternità fai da te, alle investigazioni private, agli avvocati, nulla è escluso. Interviene Tamara Taveri, titolare dell'agenzia di investigazioni "Test Istituto Investigativo" di Monopoli.

Ciao a tutti! I recorded this episode from a much bigger kitchen during my stay in Monopoli, Italy a few weeks back. In this episode I talk about why I went to Italy, the pull that the country, and specifically Puglia, has on me, traveling solo as a lady and I answer your IG questions (you guys are REALLY curious about TFM!) all while attempting to make pasta alla gricia. I hope you enjoy it and buon ascolto!
