The region is also internationally celebrated for its top-tier agriculture and winemaking.For a taste of authentic Italian charm beyond the tourist trail, explore the towns featured in I Borghi Più Belli d'Italia—Italy's list of its most beautiful hidden gems. Tourissimo Tip–This is a great tip for all 20 regions of Italy. Find out more here: https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/the-most-beautiful-small-towns-in-italyFood lovers will be delighted to know that Sicily is also home to 23 Michelin-starred restaurants, including three two-star establishments and twenty with one star.Tourissimo Tip–If you visit Corleone, you should definitely learn about the legacy of the Mafia. 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.

We visit Ostuni, Puglia's città bianca - the White City. Because we live in Puglia all year round we keep our finger on the pulse. Insider tips and hacks (parking in Ostuni? We have it covered), plus our recommendations on where to eat = where we eat. Eat like a local. Avoid the tourist traps, recommended by one tourist to another, where no locals would go - because the food is just average, and overpriced. We eat better, for less. We explain why Ostuni makes the perfect base for your Puglia vacation, help you plan the perfect Puglia itinerary from a base in Ostuni, and list the Valle d'Itria's best beaches (and tell you where to park). All that plus a hack on saving money on booking accommodation in Ostuni.

Domenico Semeraro nasce a Ostuni con un disordine genetico che lo rende molto più basso rispetto ai suoi coetanei. Quando è ancora molto giovane, decide di cambiare aria trasferendosi a Roma. Qui, dopo diverse esperienze in una capitale notturna ed estrema, diventa noto come “il nano di Termini“. La sua vita prosegue fino al 1986, quando l’incontro con il giovane e affascinante Armando Lovaglio stravolge tutto.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode of “Kimberly's Italy,” co-hosts Kimberly Holcombe and Tommaso Il Favoloso take listeners on a journey through the lesser-known yet captivating regions of Puglia, Basilicata, and Campania, uncovering their unique cultural and geographical features. Puglia: Geography and Features: Nestled between the Adriatic and Ionian seas, Puglia is known for its unique terra rosa soil, abundant olive trees, and renowned wines such as Primitivo and Negroamaro. Cuisine and Climate: The region boasts a vegetable-centric cuisine, diverse climate, and provides a refreshing alternative to the summer heat of Rome. Key Destinations: Highlights include the Gargano promontory, Bari, Ostuni, Lecce, and Santa Maria de Leuca. The iconic trulli houses are now popular accommodations. Basilicata: Historical Context and Terrain: Famous for its mountainous landscape, Basilicata has undergone several name changes, including Lucania under Mussolini. Cultural Highlights: Matera, recognized as a European Capital of Culture in 2019, is famed for its unique sassi cave dwellings. Visitor Tips: Despite lacking an airport, the region offers warm welcomes in its small villages. Potenza is noted for its narrow roads and parking challenges, while Maratea charms visitors with its scenic appeal. Local Wines and Cuisine: The region's wines, Malantrina and Aglianco, pair excellently with local meats and bread. Campania: Cultural Hub: Known for its stunning coastline, Campania is also home to Napoli, the birthplace of pizza and a gateway to Capri, Ischia, Procida, and the Amalfi Coast. Attractions and Planning: Notable sites include the Reggia di Caserta, Pompeii, and Herculaneum. The Amalfi Coast, with its picturesque villages such as Positano and Amalfi, requires careful planning to navigate high prices and crowds. Climate and History: The region benefits from a sunny climate, and south of Salerno you can visit the ancient ruins in Paestum. Coastal Challenges: The islands are full of rocky shores which make for somewhat challenging entries for non-local swimmers! Follow us on Social Media Instagram Facebook Join Kimberly and Tommaso as they delve into these regions, providing travel tips and cultural insights for an enriching Italian adventure.
Antonella Moscati"L'intruso"Jean-Paul NancyA cura di Valeria PiazzaCronopio Edizioniwww.cronopio.itLa questione non è che mi abbiano aperto, spalancato, per sostituirmi il cuore, ma che questa apertura non può essere richiusa. (Del resto ogni radiografia lo mostra, lo sterno è ricucito con pezzi di filo di ferro ritorti). Io sono aperto chiuso. C'è in me un'apertura attraverso la quale passa un flusso incessante di estraneità: i farmaci immunodepressori e gli altri che servono a combattere alcuni effetti detti secondari, le conseguenze inevitabili (come il deterioramento dei reni), i ripetuti controlli, tutta l'esistenza posta su un nuovo piano, trascinata da un luogo all'altro. La vita scannerizzata e riportata su molteplici registri ciascuno dei quali iscrive altre possibilità di morte.Sono dunque io stesso che divengo il mio intruso, in tutti questi modi che si accumulano e si oppongono.Antonella Moscati è nata a Napoli e vive a Ostuni. Ha scritto su Kant, Schelling, Freud, Benjamin, Arendt e Nancy e tradotto dal tedesco e dal francese testi di filosofia contemporanea. Fra i suoi libri: Deliri (nottetempo, 2009), Una casa (nottetempo, 2015), Pathologies (Arléa, 2020). Per Quodlibet ha pubblicato Il canale di Otranto (2007), Ellen West.

Ascolta la diretta di RKO dalla seconda giornata della prima edizione del Vintage Market Bari On Tour, organizzato da Bidonville Vintage Store con il patrocinio e il contributo del Comune di Ostuni, si tiene nella Città Bianca sabato 25 e domenica 26 maggio, presso la Villa Comunale Sandro Pertini – (Sabato, 25 Maggio dalle 12:00 alle 22:00 e domenica 26 Maggio dalle 9:00 alle 21:00).In questa puntata di oggi domenica 26 maggio 2024 abbiamo intervistato:Simona Santoro - Blue VelvetDora cloud CreationAngela - Kokeramami mon amourSilvia Civelli - Storie di Pulcinella spettacolo di marionettePartizia D'Auria e Mimmo Sangirardi - Il CamaleonteJim e Michela - Penni Lane Vintage OstuniErmanno - Vintage Pusher NableLa cornice del Vintage Market racchiuderà circa 80 espositori, presentando una vasta gamma di articoli tra cui: Abbigliamento vintage, Artigianato creativo, Prodotti hand made, Modernariato, Illustrazioni, Collezionismo di dischi, libri, fumetti e altro, Remake, Articoli second hand, Fashion designer, Bio Cosmesi.Un week end pieno di sorprese che consentirà ai visitatori di immergersi nelle proprie passioni alla ricerca del tesoro nascosto, del capo vintage a cui dare un'altra vita o semplicemente di curiosare tra gli oggetti e le collezioni dei tantissimi espositori che riportano alla mente ricordi piacevoli del passato, con un unico denominatore comune: la sostenibilità.Lo slogan della manifestazione “Vintage is the way to save Planet” è un concetto che esprime l'opportunità di dare nuova vita agli oggetti e ai beni del passato, al di là dell'amore per il vintage, e di utilizzare ancora una volta prodotti sani, utili e funzionanti per il bene del pianeta. Pertanto il Vintage Market Bari non è un semplice mercatino dell'usato ma un contenitore in cui si incontrano passioni e interessi caratterizzati dal passare del tempo che vengono valorizzati e rilanciati sul mercato. Sarà anche una vetrina per giovani artisti e nuove realtà che propongono artigianato creativo, come pure per appassionati di moda e musica che vogliono condividere questa esperienza confrontandosi con un pubblico sempre più attento e consapevole.Oltre all'area market il programma sarà ricchissimo di altre attività nelle varie aree tematiche:Area Kids che ospiterà (sabato e domenica) vari laboratori e spettacoli gratuitiMusic Area con DJ Set only vinyl, Live band e artisti e ballerini di Lindy HopArea FoodInoltre Radio RKO, durante tutto l'evento, avrà una propria postazione fissa da cui trasmetterà una diretta che vedrà ospiti i protagonisti dell'evento, gli organizzatori, gli standisti e gli stessi visitatori. A condurre il programma Carlo Chicco & friends con la regia di Paola Pagone.“Siamo pronti! – afferma uno degli organizzatori, Nicola Mincuzzi – Il Vintage Market Bari edizione ON tour, non è un semplice mercatino, è un appuntamento da non perdere dove gli attori principali sono gli espositori, selezionati per dare vita ad una kermesse il cui denominatore comune è il rispetto per la natura e per il pianeta.Siamo partiti da 40 espositori nella prima edizione nella città di Bari, fino a raggiungere traguardi inimmaginabili che hanno visto la partecipazione di oltre 170 espositori su 5000 mq di superficie coperta e oltre 15.000 presenze nell'ultima edizione primaverile.È per noi motivo di orgoglio – continua Nicola Mincuzzi – vedere tantissimi visitatori di tutte le età avvicinarsi al nostro progetto condividendo con noi delle giornate all'insegna della spensieratezza e dello stare bene. Il Vintage Market diventa così un pretesto, per sensibilizzare in maniera concreta e tangibile l'acquisto consapevole ed ecosostenibile.Acquistare vintage infatti, significa dare una seconda vita a capi ancora utili realizzati per durare nel tempo; questa scelta influisce inevitabilmente sul bene del pianeta non alimentando il consumo scellerato di capi di abbigliamento provenienti dalla fast fashion con conseguente danno ecologico. Scegliere hand made, significa scegliere manufatti realizzati sapientemente da artigiani con un impatto ambientale pari a zero.L'ingresso al Vintage Market è gratuito. Tutti i laboratori e le attività nell'area kids sono gratuite e adatte ai bambini dai 4 anni in su.

Bonus bonus, read all about it! We've got a Sunday special for y'all this lovely am. On a rainy day in Ostuni, Italy, amidst my first few weeks of traveling, I decided to record a life update episode. This is a solo episode- just me, myself, and I. I talk about our travels thus far, shit that's hit the fan, the lessons I hope to learn from my time abroad, my favorite parts of my trip, and things I've learned from my travel companions. I also get candid about my recent breakup, and how I've been coping. There's a lot I hope to get out of this summer spent in Europe, other than a tan and some fun stories. I want to learn more about myself, get out of my own way, shut down limiting beliefs + constricting practices I've fallen into, and come back a better version of myself. I share all of that and more on this week's bonus moment, so enjoy and let me know what you think!

Catechesi predicata da don Luigi Maria Epicoco presso l'Opera Nostra Signora di Fatima in Ostuni
Francesco Colizzi"Il massacro dell'innocenza"Manni Editoriwww.mannieditori.itL'incubo ricorrente di un eccidio di bambini amareggia le notti del giovane Gesù, fino a quando scopre della strage degli innocenti ordinata da Erode.In Gesù, il sopravvissuto, l'incubo trapassa in un immenso sogno: annunciare il Regno della nuova innocenza.La sua predicazione però esige che egli stesso venga ucciso. Il sacrificio di Cristo sulla croce basterà a porre termine ai massacri e agli abusi dell'infanzia?Un dramma in tre atti che partendo dalla storia dei Vangeli ci parla dell'oggi."La strage degli innocenti su ordine di Erode il Grande, raccontata solo in uno dei Vangeli canonici, quello di Matteo, probabilmente non è mai avvenuta.Ma sono invece innumerevoli gli eccidi, le uccisioni, i maltrattamenti, gli abusi, le violenze di ogni tipo sui bambini in tutto il mondo. Per questo la storia della strage di Betlemme è insediata potentemente nell'immaginario collettivo. Essa ha sempre esercitato una potente suggestione su artisti di ogni tempo e su vasti strati della popolazione.Ed è indubbia l'altissima attenzione del Gesù storico per i bambini, la cui rinnovata innocenza egli propose agli adulti di recuperare per ottenere la salvezza."Francesco Colizzi, nato e vive ad Ostuni, in Puglia.Psichiatra e psicoterapeuta, è stato direttore del Centro di Salute Mentale di Brindisi. Impegnato nel volontariato internazionale, è stato per sei anni presidente nazionale dell'Associazione Italiana Amici di Raoul Follereau.Ha pubblicato libri creativi e di saggistica: Inseguendo le cose (Schena 1996), Danzatori e orchestrali (Barbieri 1998), Un potere più grande (La Meridiana 2010), Eutopia (La Meridiana 2012).IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itQuesto show fa parte del network Spreaker Prime.

We start with Chopin's Prelude #16 in B-flat minor.The first day, we visited three lovely towns and eat our way through them. These include: Tricase Porto, where we ate really delicate seafood and a wonderful fennel cream soup. The second day, we stayed in Lecce and visited a couple stores including a cheese store where we tasted squeaky nodoni. That afternoon, we had an altercation with a local pigeon, who claimed rights to our pasticciotto. On the third day, we visited Ostuni, the white city, and in the afternoon we drove back south to Gallipoli, a port with real character. We had a fantastic seafood lunch and then witnessed thousand bemoaning the loss of one of the city's finest warriors who died in his mother's arms after choking on a meatball. That was the theme of Gallipolli's Carnevale.I then talk about progress starting our new store, established and run by Projet Espoir et Equite, our French version of Project Hope and Fairness, whose goal is to build chocolate factories in villages and then develop markets for the chocolate.

Oggi lo chef Oldani e Pierluigi Pardo viaggiano tra ulivi e trulli nella Valle d'Itria, regione nel cuore della Puglia compresa tra le province di Brindisi, Bari e Taranto. Partiamo da Martina Franca dove ci aspetta il nostro primo cicerone, lo scrittore Donato Carrisi. Imbocchiamo la Provinciale 14 e ci spostiamo verso Est, verso Ostuni dove si trova il Ristorante stellato Cielo, presso La Sommità Relais: in cucina lo chef pugliese Roberto Monopoli. Nello Spazio News facciamo un salto alla Fiera Tirreno CT i Carrara dove si sono svolti i Campionati di pasticceria, panificazione e della Miglior Colomba. Andiamo a conoscere i vincitori con Matteo Cutolo, presidente della Federazione Italiana Pasticceria, Gelateria e Cioccolateria. Un passo indietro a Martina Franca perchè ci eravamo dimenticati di assaggiare uno dei prodotti simbolo della Valle d'Itria: il mitico Capocollo. Ce lo racconta il respondabile del Presidio Slow Food Francesco Carriero. Concludiamo il nostro viaggio con l'Agnello al forno in pignata che ci preparano gli studenti dell'Istituto Alberghiero "Domenico Modugno" di Polignano a Mare con il loro prof Innocente Galluzzi.
A moment and a movement; New Biccari. With Erick and Giuseppe Lucera and Rich LetoThe book illustrates how a moment in time when the author returned to his ancestral village let to research into the movement of people from Biccari to Philadelphia. Erick along with cousins in Italy Gennaro and Giuseppe Lucera trace the 1200 Biccarese citizens to America, ending up mostly Philadelphia. Using data analytics and his cousin's local stories from previously published books, the new book shows when, why, and where the immigrants went. The book shows that not only did most of the immigrants settle in dense areas together, but they were also closely related. Using church records dating back to the 1550s, we found that most of the people share several of the same common ancestors who had come to Biccari from other villages. The book was inspired by a moment In time when Erick went to Biccari for the first time in 2009 and the goal of the book was to provide a path back for thousands of Biccarese Americans to enjoy the same moment of returning to their ancestral village.Our presentation will also focus on one of those moments for Erick's cousin Rich, who accompanied him to Italy and Biccari for the first time this past summer. After landing in Naples, we spent a week in our ancestral village of Biccari, then went down the coast of Puglia to villages, such as Molfetta and Barletta, that our ancestors lived in BEFORE coming to Biccari in the 1600s. We also spent time in Polignano Al mare, Lecce, Alberobello, and Ostuni. Rich will recount his feelings of walking the steps of our ancestors from Naples, Biccari and other villages we visited.Farmers and Nobles traces the research path of blogger and podcast host Bob Sorrentino.

We literally grabbed Regan and Ally off the street for this short episode. The sisters are from the US. Regan is a wheeler. She uses a wheelchair and has been navigating Ostuni while visiting for the Allora film festival. We ask Regan how her visit has been, given the narrow cobbled streets of many of Puglia's old towns. It was a delight to hear that Regan's experience had been very positive and much better than had been anticipated at the other end, before getting here. She also praises the organisers of Ostuni's first Allora International Festival of Cinema Art and Music for their thought in presenting an inclusive and accessible festival.

Police: 1 dead, 8 wounded in shooting at gathering in Harlem NEW YORK (AP) — New York City police say an early-morning shooting at a gathering in Harlem left a man dead and eight other people wounded. Police, citing preliminary information, say officers responded about 12:40 a.m. Monday to reports of a shooting on a footpath along the FDR Drive and found five people shot. Police say four others arrived at hospitals for treatment. Police say a 21-year-old man was pronounced dead at a hospital. Police didn't immediately have details about the gathering or what may have led to the shooting. Information about possible suspects wasn't immediately released, but Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell says: “The emboldened individuals responsible for this are exactly who our officers are battling every day to make our city safe." Teen killed, officer, 2 adults shot at unpermitted DC event WASHINGTON (AP) — Police in Washington, D.C., say a 15-year-old boy was shot to death and three adults, including a police officer, were wounded after a musical event lacking a permit erupted into chaos. The shooting took place Sunday night near 14th and U Streets NW, about 2 miles north of the White House. Metropolitan Police Chief Robert J. Contee III says the wounded police officer and the other adults were recovering at hospitals. Contee says officials will be speaking to event organizers and considering what legal action can be taken because the event lacked a permit. US opens COVID vaccine to little kids; shots begin this week NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. health officials have opened COVID-19 vaccines for infants, toddlers and preschoolers — the last group without the shots. The head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced the decision Saturday, hours after an advisory panel voted unanimously that coronavirus vaccines should made available to children as young as 6 months. The Biden administration has been gearing up for the start of the shots early this week. Millions of doses have been ordered for distribution to doctors, hospitals and community health clinics around the country. 'It's just hell there': Russia still pounds eastern Ukraine KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russia's military machine is persevering in its ferocious effort to grind down Ukraine's defenses. In Ukraine's eastern Luhansk region, which in recent weeks has become the focal point of Moscow's attempt to impose its will on its neighbor, battles reportedly raged for the control of multiple villages Monday. The war's consequences for food and fuel supplies are increasingly weighing on minds around the globe after warnings that the fighting could go on for years. Financial help for children displaced by the war was due to come from an unlikely quarter later Monday, when a prominent Russian journalist was to auction off his Nobel Peace Prize medal in New York. Bill Cosby civil trial jury must start deliberations over SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) — After two days of deliberations, jurors in a civil trial deciding on sexual abuse allegations against Bill Cosby will have to start from scratch on Monday. By the end of Friday, jurors had decided on nearly all questions put before them, including whether Cosby had sexually assaulted plaintiff Judy Huth at the Playboy Mansion in 1975 when she was 16. Los Angeles County Judge Craig Karlan, who had promised one juror she could depart after Friday, wanted to accept the partial verdict, but courthouse closure rules left him no choice but to close down. Jurors will begin again with an alternate. Sunday's sports highlights The US Open goes to a first-time Major champion, the Yankees finally lose, the Guardians knock off the Dodgers, the Red Sox get past the Cardinals and the Braves avoid their first three-game skid of the season. Yellen: Recession not inevitable, gas tax holiday weighed REHOBOTH BEACH, Del. (AP) — Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen says she expects the U.S. economy to slow in the months ahead, but that a recession is not inevitable. She's offering a dose of optimism even as economists grow increasingly worried about a recession fueled by skyrocketing inflation and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Yellen tells ABC's “This Week” that overall consumer spending in the United States remains strong, while also noting that spending patterns are changing, given the impact of rising food and energy prices. She's also expressing an openness to a federal gas tax holiday to help give motorists some relief at the pump. And she says it'll take “skill and luck” to bring down inflation while maintaining low unemployment. Outside Yellowstone, flooded towns struggle to recover FROMBERG, Mont. (AP) — With Yellowstone National Park pushing to re-open to tourists more quickly than anticipated after record floods pounded southern Montana, some of those hardest hit in the disaster live far from the famous park's limelight and are leaning heavily on one another to pull their lives out of the mud. In the farming town of Fromberg, the Clarks Fork River flooded almost 100 homes and badly damaged a major irrigation ditch that serves many of the farms. The town's mayor says about a third of the flooded homes can't be repaired. Resident Lindi O'Brien says if the town is going to recover, its 400 people will have to do much of the work themselves. Reports: Paul Haggis detained in Italy in sex assault case ROME (AP) — Italian news reports are quoting prosecutors in southern Italy as saying film director Paul Haggis has been detained for investigation of the alleged sexual assault of a woman. Haggis has been in Italy for a film festival in Ostuni. The tourist town is in the southeastern region of Puglia. News agency LaPresse and other Italian media carried a statement from prosecutors in nearby Brindisi that they are investigating allegations a “young foreign woman” was forced to have “non-consensual” sexual relations over two days. The authorities were quoted as saying that Haggis dropped the woman off early Sunday at Brindisi airport where authorities helped her. Haggis's attorney didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. NYC making push to get fired workers vaccinated, rehired NEW YORK (AP) — New York City is making a push to give city workers who were fired earlier this year for not getting to the COVID-19 vaccine a chance to get their old jobs back if they get vaccinated. In February, the city fired more than 1,400 workers who failed to comply with the vaccine mandate put in place by former Mayor Bill de Blasio. Unvaccinated non-Department of Education workers are receiving a letter with details, and DOE employees are expected to receive a letter later in the summer. A city spokesperson says 97% of workers are vaccinated and that the goal has always been “vaccination rather than termination." Deputy: 2 officers had chance to shoot Uvalde school gunman UVALDE, Texas (AP) — Two Uvalde city police officers told a sheriff's deputy that they passed up a fleeting chance to shoot the gunman for fear of hitting children outside an elementary school where the gunman killed 21 people. The gunman went on to enter Robb Elementary School in Uvalde on May 24 and open fire, killing 19 children and two teachers. Chief Deputy Ricardo Rios of nearby Zavala County told The New York Times of speaking to two unidentified officers, one of whom was armed with an AR-15-style rifle, who said they had seen the gunman firing from outside the school. When Rios asked why the officers didn't shoot, they said children were playing in the background in the line of fire. Iowa Supreme Court: Abortion not fundamental right in state DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The Iowa Supreme Court has made it easier for lawmakers to limit or outlaw abortion in the state, reversing a decision by the court just four years ago that guaranteed the right to abortion under the Iowa Constitution. The court concluded Friday that a 2018 decision was wrong and should be overturned. The ruling stemmed from a lawsuit filed by abortion providers who challenged a 2020 law that required a 24-hour waiting period before a woman can get an abortion. A judge struck down the law in June 2021, citing the 2018 Iowa Supreme Court decision that declared abortion a fundamental right under the state constitution. The court reversed that decision and sent the case back to district court. Court rejects Trump-era EPA finding that weed killer safe WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal appeals court has rejected a Trump administration finding that the active ingredient in the weed killer Roundup does not pose a serious health risk and is “not likely” to cause cancer in humans. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on Friday ordered the Environmental Protection Agency to reexamine its 2020 finding that glyphosate did not pose a health risk for people. Glyphosate is the active ingredient in Roundup, the most widely used herbicide in the world. Its original producer, Monsanto, was bought in 2018 by pharmaceutical giant Bayer, which now faces thousands of claims from people who say Roundup exposure caused their cancer. 7 arrested in House office building linked to Colbert show WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Capitol Police say officers arrested seven unauthorized people in a congressional office building Thursday night and charged them with unlawful entry. The people identified themselves as being affiliated with CBS' “Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press. The person could not discuss details of the investigation publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. The incident Thursday night followed the third public hearing by the House panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection. The USCP statement says the case remains “an active criminal investigation, and may result in additional criminal charges.” Russian TV shows videos of 2 US vets captured in Ukraine Russian state television has shown video of two U.S. military veterans who went missing last week while fighting in Ukraine. The videos confirm that the men were taken captive and raise fears about their fate. Alex Drueke and Andy Huynh, both from Alabama, are believed to be the first Americans captured by Russian forces since the war began on Feb. 24. Drueke is shown on camera telling his mother he is alive. Russian RT, which broadcasts in English, says the Americans are being held by Russian-backed separatist forces in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine. Drag story hour hosts, under attack, dig in their heels SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Rhetoric against LGBTQ people is now targeting drag storytimes with interruptions and other protests around the country during Pride Month. At one recent event outside San Francisco, members of the extremist Proud Boys walked in and began hurling insults at a drag queen as she read to children and their parents. Organizers of the reading programs say that they have faced pushback from the beginning but that the recent vitriol is new. They say opponents who claim they want to protect children are actually just scaring and endangering them. And they say they plan to enhance security but won't stop their reading programs.

Change Makers: Leadership, Good Business, Ideas and Innovation
In part two of this series in collaboration with Mr & Mrs Smith, we continue to explore the travel industry's role in delivering a more sustainable future in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic and the growing climate emergency. This week Michael travels to Ostuni, a fairy-tale Italian city known for its labyrinth of historical white-washed buildings, as he visits Pascale Lauber and Ulrike Bauschke, Founders of Paragon 700. Both with a background in design, Ulrike and Pascale have painstakingly restored every inch of what was the former 17th century palace, Palazzo Rosso, and turned what had been empty for more than 40 years into one of Italy's most exciting and dynamic boutique hotel experiences. Described as having a ‘green soul', developed by the duo's mantra that green hospitality is a philosophy, not simply a style, this hotel has a very modern mission to be better for the world. From employing local tradespeople, serving home-grown and locally-sourced organic produce, to operating with low emissions energy and working fully plastic free. Listen to how Pascale and Ulrike turned their vision into reality in the latest Change Makers episode.

L'idée de cette épicerie est née, il y a 6 ans durant des vacances dans le sud de l'Italie, dans les pouilles, dans l'extrême sud du pays. Ostuni est une ville de cette région, elle est réputée pour ses murs et façades blanches, mais aussi pour la beauté du paysage, la proximité de la mer et de son climat méditerranéen. Ce voyage initiatique lui a permis d'en faire d'autres par la suite. Dans cette épicerie, vous trouverez des pâtes fraîches, de l'huile d'olive, de l'ail fumé, … Tout est originaire et provient directement de la région des pouilles.

We visited Vieste and Peschici in the Gargano. What a beautiful place to be. OK, it's not really a day trip from Ostuni, but the beaches and the entire area are stunning.
