Novara is one of the most beautiful high latitude expedition boats ever built. She is a Bestevear 60C with two carbon fibre aero rigs. She was designed to take adventurers to the most remote places on the ocean. A few years ago Veronica Lysaght and Nigel Jollands took over as custodians of the ship. They wanted to sail from the UK home to New Zealand with a climate mission. The Novara - One Planet Project was born, and now they are on their way towards the Northwest Passage.  You can read more about the boat and the project on Novara. If you need information about sailing in the high latitudes check out the book I wrote with Bob Shepton: High Latitude Sailing – Self-sufficient sailing techniques for cold waters and winter seasons.  Keen on sailing the Norwegian coast? You should be. Read Sail the Norwegian Coast: How and Why you should sail the most beautiful coast in the world – Kindle edition.

In this raw and reflective episode, I sit down with Robert Marino – founder of Rolling Hills Recovery Center and Novara Recovery Center – to talk about addiction, faith, and the road to long-term recovery.Robert takes us into the depths of his story, sharing what life looked like in active addiction — including periods of living on the streets, completely disconnected from the life he once knew. He speaks candidly about the pain, the rock bottom moments that brought him to his knees, and the role AA and a connection to God played in helping him begin again.He also shares how the vision for his treatment centres began to unfold — both built while still on his own path to wholeness. Rolling Hills and Novara are now home to a team rooted in lived experience — people who know firsthand what it means to feel broken and choose to rise.What makes Robert's story so powerful is that his recovery didn't just change his life — it became the catalyst for helping thousands of others reclaim theirs. His healing became something so much bigger than himself.This is a conversation about surrender, purpose, and the extraordinary things that can happen when you decide your story isn't over yet.Visit our website: https://thrivalistsobriety.comFollow Thrivalist here on InstagramJoin the free Facebook Community here.

Andrea Rompianesi"Letteralmente"Percorsi di scritturaAmos Edizioniwww.amosedizioni.comLetteralmente raccoglie oltre cento percorsi di Rompianesi nella scrittura degli altri. Il suo sguardo e le sue parole vogliono indagare, conoscere il mondo letterario contemporaneo. Come scrive Enea Biumi nella prefazione, ciò che muove Rompianesi è «il desiderio di un assoluto approfondimento secondo una sua idea di poetica, di certo non solo soggettiva, ma ponderata in contesti più ampi. La disamina di cui si avvale comprende le regole della retorica che offre al lettore l'intelligenza di ciò che sta scritto in un contesto di vera e propria critica letteraria, lontana però dal vuoto di una generica apologia del testo. I percorsi di scrittura di Rompianesi sono per evidenziare e non per elogiare, alieni da quella specie di captatio benevolentiae che spesso conduce un critico obnubilando la verità del contenuto e della forma. Ne scaturisce quindi una professionalità plasmata da un continuo studio e da una appartenenza seria e coerente al mondo della scrittura».Andrea Rompianesi (Modena 1963) ha compiuto gli studi presso l'Università di Bologna. Risiede attualmente in provincia di Novara. È stato operatore culturale ed editore. Realizza interventi di critica letteraria per il sito “scrittura nomade”. Ha pubblicato, in poesia, da ultimi: Dietro tutti i colori del blu (2013), Quote di non proletariato (2017), La donna grassa (2021). In prosa: Il pane quotidiano (1990), Quella dei Beati Angeli (1994), Il killer (1995; 2000), Venti e lune (1995), In odore di terre (1998), La notte dei grandi ladri (2003), Strada di pausa e di viaggio (2012), Avinguda del Paral-lel (2014), Da ere relate (puntoacapo 2022), Tracce di pellicola da film sulla costa di ponente (2022). È presente in varie antologie.

Quinn Slobodian is a Canadian historian. His new book, Hayek's Bastards: The Neoliberal Roots of the Populist Right is a deep dive into the set of far-right ideologues currently dominating US politics.

Got a pension? Or a savings account? Arguably, its purpose is to align your interests with the interests of capitalism: when the market goes up, you benefit too. All this means that the working class actually already owns lots of the assets around us, from companies to houses. But how much control do we actually […]

During the 2008 economic crisis, the Obama administration had an opportunity to enact widespread market reforms. Instead, they bailed out the banks and laid the groundwork for mass inequality and a political culture that has given us a second Trump administration.

Prima di cominciare a cucinare vorrei però darvi qualche notizia sulla storia del risotto. Non si hanno molte informazioni su questo piatto e probabilmente nasce intorno al 1500 come piatto povero, per le persone che non avevano molti mezzi.In Italia la zona della coltivazione del riso è un triangolo tra le città di Pavia, Novara e Vercelli, dove si possono vedere molte risaie, cioè campi coltivati a riso. Voi sapete però che il riso è un cereale che viene dall'Asia, ma già gli Assiri e i Babilonesi coltivavano il riso che però non mangiavano, ma usavano come mangime per gli animali: il mangime è il cibo degli animali appunto....- The full transcript of this Episode is available via "Luisa's learn Italian Premium", Premium is no subscription and does not incur any recurring fees.

The genocide in Gaza has been the most automated in history. Systems like ‘Lavender' and ‘Where's Daddy?' reportedly speed up the process of tracking and targeting Palestinians.
