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.

Full Text of ReadingsHoly Saturday At the Easter Vigil in the Holy Night of Easter Lectionary: 41The Saint of the day is Saint Gianna Beretta MollaSaint Gianna Beretta Molla's Story In less than 40 years, Gianna Beretta Molla became a pediatric physician, a wife, a mother and a saint! She was born in Magenta near Milano, the tenth of Alberto and Maria Beretta's 13 children. An active member of the St. Vincent de Paul Society and a leader in the Catholic Action movement, Gianna also enjoyed skiing and mountain climbing. She earned degrees in medicine and surgery from the University of Pavia, eventually specializing in pediatrics. In 1952, Gianna opened a clinic in the small town of Mesero, where she met engineer Pietro Molla. Shortly before their 1955 marriage, Gianna wrote to Pietro: “Love is the most beautiful sentiment that the Lord has put into the soul of men and women.” In the next four years the Mollas had three children: Pierluigi, Mariolina, and Laura. Two pregnancies following ended in miscarriage. Early in her final pregnancy, doctors discovered that Gianna had both a child and a tumor in her uterus. She allowed the surgeons to remove the tumor but not to perform the complete hysterectomy that they recommended, which would have killed the child. Seven months later in April 1962, Gianna Emanuela Molla was born at the hospital in Monza, but post-operative complications resulted in an infection for her mother. The following week Gianna Molla died at home, and was buried in the cemetery of Mesero. Gianna Emanuela went on to become a physician herself. Gianna Beretta Molla was beatified in 1994 and canonized 10 years later. Her liturgical feast is celebrated on April 28. Reflection With great faith and courage, Gianna Molla made the choice that enabled her daughter to be born. We can often wish that we were in different circumstances, but holiness frequently comes from making difficult choices in bad situations. Saint Gianna Beretta Molla is a Patron Saint of: DoctorsUnborn ChildrenWives Enjoy this prayer in honor of Gianna Beretta Molla! Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Fino alla morte, nel 1980, si dedica alla sua missione: restituire alle famiglie ebree ciò che è stato loro sottratto, perché a chi ha perso tutto non si può togliere anche la memoria.Malgrado i riconoscimenti che la rendono una delle donne più decorate di Francia, il suo nome è poco noto, ma la storia di questa eroina silenziosa e modesta, capace di tener testa a gerarchi del calibro di Goering, merita di uscire dall'oblio.Franca PellizzariÈ nata a Milano e vive a Monza. Laureata in Filosofia, ha dedicato la vita professionale ai ragazzi: ha insegnato al liceo classico e alle medie, ha dato vita a molteplici progetti di promozione della lettura e ha tradotto e scritto diversi libri destinati ai più giovani. Nel quinquennio appena concluso, durante il quale ha ricoperto la carica di assessore nel Comune di Lesmo, ha organizzato numerosi eventi culturali.

Sabato 5 aprile la mattinata si apre con Laura Pepe e la sua storia di Sparta, tutta ancora da raccontare (Sparta, Sala Previati, ore 11). Maria Novella Viganò, in dialogo con Valentina Zavoli, narrerà la storia della famiglia Lissi e della loro villa, teatro di numerose trasformazioni e accadimenti (La Superba, Cenobio, ore 11.30).

Ancora, Marco Balzano con la sua storia di Mattia che, alla ricerca di una madre che non ha mai conosciuto, decide di indossare la camicia nera (Bambino, Sala Previati, ore 18) e Chiara Montani alle prese con un assassino da smascherare e una donna pronta a dipingere il volto della verità (L'artista e il signore di Urbino, Cenobio, ore 18.30).

Nel 1999 ha sposato il suo libraio di fiducia e oggi gestisce con lui la libreria di famiglia a Legnano. I libri sono la sua casa.

Parrillas con motores de 4, 6, 8 y 12 cilindros, coches compartidos por dos pilotos, monoplazas de tracción total, F1 con ruedas carenadas, pilotos compartiendo el mismo coche, pilotos de motos en la F1, pilotos que se fabrican sus propios coches…… La temporada 2025 de F1 promete ser apasionante, pero todas estas cosas, y algunas más, no las volverlas a ver en la F1. Ya falta menos para que arranque la temporada 2025 de F1… ¡lo estoy deseando! Pero hablando con uno de vosotros sobre lo interesante que va a ser esta temporada me dijo algo que me dio que pensar: “Sí, muy interesante… pero hay cosas que no volveremos a ver nunca en F1”. Y se me ocurrió este vídeo. Motores de 4, 6, 8 y 12 cilindros. Empezamos fuerte: Nos vamos a la temporada 1982… En esa temporada muchos equipos seguían usando el motor Ford Cosworth DFV V8 de 3 litros atmosférico, por ejemplo, nada menos que Arrows, Ensign, Fittipaldi, la escudería no es piloto, Lotus, March, McLaren, Osella, Theodore, Tyrrel y Williams. Brabham utilizó el Cosworth V8 en los BT49 y el novedoso BMW 1.5 litros 4 cilindros turbo en su BT50. También era un 4 cilindros el motor Hart de la escudería Toleman. Ferrari había abandonado su 12 cilindros por un V6 Turbo, una configuración que llevaba usando Renault desde el principio. Y aunque Ferrari había abandonado sus motores de 12 cilindros aun seguían defendiendo esa configuración Alfa Romeo y los motores Matra que montaban los Ligier. F1 con tracción total. Sorprende que el Audi Quattro revolucionase el Mundo de los Rallyes en 1980… cuando ya hubo un F1 de tracción total en 1959, el Ferguson P99… ¡más de 20 años antes! Quizás la escasa potencia de los F1 de esa época fizo que no triunfase, pues este modelo lleva un motor Climax de 1,5 litros que apenas llegaba a los 200 CV. En una entrevista de 1997 cuando le preguntaron al Moss por su monoplaza favorito dijo que el Ferguson P99 y el periodista ni sabía que coche era. Hubo más intentos, como los BRM P67 de 1964, el McLaren M9A de 1969 o el espantoso Cosworth F1 4WD de 1969 que probó Jackie Stewart y le pareció horroroso. Hay un Lotus 4x4 del que luego hablaremos e incluso el genial Mauro Forghieri propuso a Ferrari que su 312 fuese 4x4. Pero en 1980 se prohibió el uso de tracción total. Aunque confieso que en el futuro sí sería posible que veamos F1 con tracción total al estilo de los prototipos de Le Mans, con propulsión trasera para el motor térmico y motores en las ruedas delanteras… F1 con ruedas carenadas. Nos hemos acostumbrado a ver a los monoplazas de F1 y a todos en general con las ruedas descubiertas… ¿el motivo? Porque los monoplazas nacieron como auténticos “cohetes” con ruedas y al principio la estrechez de las propias ruedas y la relativamente baja velocidad a la que rodaban los F1, no justificaba complicarse la vida para carenarlas… Pero eso cambio en el Gran Premio de Italia de 1955 cuando Mercedes-Benz se presenta con el monoplaza W196R denominado “Tipo Monza” o Streamliner. Y es que en el circuito de Monza, a veces nos olvidamos, el peralte dejó de utilizarse en 1969. Si ahora es rapidísimo… antes lo era mucho más. F1 con 6 ruedas. Te invito a que veas el vídeo titulado “Fórmulas 1 de 6 ruedas… o más”. Porque los hubo ¡hasta de 8! Pero no volverás a ver monoplazas de F1 más más de 4 ruedas, porque el reglamento los prohibió en 1983… y dudo que en eso cambien. Prueba a hacer esta pregunta a un aficionado: “¿Qué monoplaza de 6 ruedas conoces?”, ojo al matiz, monoplaza y no F1, no el 90 por ciento más bien el 99,9 por ciento te responderán que el Tyrrel P34 de 6 ruedas. Más tarde, en 1948 en Indianápolis pudimos ver al Pat Clancy Special que era un más “Normal” Kurtis Kraft Offenhauser KK500G al que le habían instalado otro eje más, conectado con un simple árbol de transmisión extra. Por supuesto, tenía tracción a las cuatro ruedas… a las cuatro ruedas posteriores. F1 con motor de turbina. Otra cosa que no volverás a ver, coches como el Lotus 56B 4WD de 1971 con una turbina de aviación como motor y tracción total. Esto lo contamos en el video titulado “F1 raros, inventos que no funcionaron”. Y es que si ha habido alguien con capacidad de innovar y arriesgar en la F1 ese ha sido Colin Chapman. Lo que no hemos contado. Estas son alternativas técnicas que no volverás a ver en la F1. Pero tampoco volverás a ver que un piloto gane una carrera con un coche diseñado y construido por él, que un piloto llegue incluso a vencer un Campeonato del Mundo de F1 con su propio coche, o que un piloto gane una carrera con el coche de su compañero o que pilotos del Mundial de Motociclismo participen con éxito en el Mundial de F1…

Bring Back V10s makes its regular detour into F1's V8 era to look back on Sebastian Vettel's sensational first grand prix victory in the 2008 Italian Grand Prix. Glenn Freeman is joined by Jonathan Noble and Karun Chandhok (who was racing in GP2 that weekend at Monza) to reflect on how Vettel was able to take such a commanding victory for Red Bull's second team Toro Rosso, only three years on from it racing as Minardi! We look back on why McLaren's Heikki Kovalainen offered no threat despite starting from the front row, and how the other McLaren of Lewis Hamilton was more of a victory contender despite starting 15th on the grid. Also on the agenda: Robert Kubica's conflict with his BMW team over his fading title hopes, Kimi Raikkonen signing a contract extension that he wouldn't see out with Ferrari, Fernando Alonso's floating role in the driver market, Adrian Newey's wisdom on F1's overtaking debate, and Williams's Sam Michael making an incredibly accurate prediction about how the 2009 season would play out under F1's incoming rule changes. We then dive into the fallout from Vettel's win for Toro Rosso, including the role it played in the political battle over customer cars in F1, and how it heaped pressure and embarrassment onto Red Bull Racing.

Tension is building inside the McLaren factory. The team is closer to a title than they have been for 12 years and, after dramatic races in Zandvoort and Monza, there is much to discuss. Not least the team's philosophy that allows their drivers, Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, to freely race each other. Team Principal Andrea Stella has returned to the factory to consider whether there now needs to be a change of policy. While Stella smooths out any wrinkles caused by the battling teammates, Production Director Ross Hood is assessing the cars ahead of the next two races in Azerbaijan and Singapore. The MCL-38s are now back at base for a service in between races.At Aston Martin, there is also continued work going on in production. The team's Chief Operating Officer Ben Fitzgerald is fixated on speeding up the production of the car's floor - with the hope that it will also increase performance on track for drivers Lance Stroll and Fernando Alonso. These small gains on track come from highly-detailed work back at base - and the next race is fast approaching, around the ancient city walls of Baku.From Azerbaijan, the Formula 1 field flies on to Singapore, for the sport's original night race. But, for the first time in our series, we will hear what happens inside an F1 factory during a grand prix weekend. F1 experts Holly Samos and Sarah Holt are visiting the McLaren Technology Centre. They have been given rare access to see inside Mission Control. This top-secret room connects the factory with the track through an exchange of detailed data which flows back and forth at high speed. But will it help the team secure victory in Singapore?The racing around Singapore's bumpy street circuit is unpredictable, and often attritional. Sarah and Holly will witness how McLaren's qualifying and race unfolds from the heart of the team's inner sanctum. With two Championships on the line, the stakes are high. Fresh from a red-eye flight from Singapore, Aston Martin reserve driver, Stoffel Vandoorne, is already back in the team's simulator. Here – hunkered down in the cockpit of a giant driving rig – he's laying the groundwork for the final six races of the season. In the high-paced world of F1, the chase for pure speed never ends.F1:Back at Base is narrated by Josh Hartnett. It is created and produced by Sarah Holt and Holly Samos and is an IMG Production for the BBC.

Bits of Bennu have building blocks of lifeNASA's OSIRIS-REx mission took six years to travel to the asteroid Bennu and return samples to Earth. Now, the first results from the analysis of these rocks are being released. Researchers found evidence of salty water, as well as the elements necessary for life, such as amino acids and the building blocks for RNA and DNA. We spoke with Kim Tait, senior curator of mineralogy at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, and co-author of one of the recent studies, published in the journal Nature.Unlocking the secret of Polar bear de-icingPolar bears spend so much time going in and out of the water that they are considered marine mammals. So when they do this in the frozen Arctic, why are they not covered in ice? A new study reveals the secret turns out to lie in the unique oils they produce that covers their white fur. Julian Carolan, a PhD candidate at Trinity College Dublin, worked with scientists in Norway, Denmark and the U.K. on this paper published in the journal Science Advances.Truffle-hunting dog finds fabulous new fungusA chance discovery has turned out to reveal a new species of North American truffle. These fungi can be desirable and valuable delicacies. An American truffle hunter, Lois Martin, and her  trained dog Monza found a distinctive truffle in a city park that turned out to be a fungus new to science. Although native to North America, it was more similar to European truffles than any found in the Americas. Dr. Greg Bonito at Michigan State University named this new truffle Tuber canirevelatum,  meaning the ‘dog-found' truffle in honour of Monza and other dogs who look for truffles. The work was published in the journal Mycologia.  Voiding your bowels can improve cognitive performanceTo maximize your cognitive function, it might be a good idea to make sure you have a poo first. That's according to a recent study in the journal Sports Medicine and Health Science. In it, scientists found that 9 out of 13 individuals improved how well they did in a mentally taxing cognitive test if they defecated first, whereas all 13 of them improved in their performance when they took a mild laxative the night before. Chia-Hua Kuo, a professor of sports medicine and nutrition at the University of Taipei, said they also saw an increase in oxygen consumption in the test subjects' subnavel regions as they were doing the test, suggesting a previously unsuspected link between the rectum and the brain. Saving species on Earth, preserving them on the moonThe world is in a biodiversity crisis. We're losing species at an unprecedented rate, thanks to climate change, habitat loss, overexploitation and more. We look at some of the more out-of-the-box solutions that are currently in the works – from creating an internet of animals to monitor biodiversity, to saving samples of Earth's biological resources on the moon.We spoke with:Martin Wikelski, the director of the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior, honorary professor of ornithology at the University of Konstanz, and the scientific head of the ICARUS project.Mary Hagedorn, a senior research scientist at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute and senior author of a recent paper published in the journal Bioscience proposing a passive biorepository on the moon.
