Nell'ambito dell'Horeca il prosciutto crudo non è semplicemente un salume, ma un vero e proprio biglietto da visita, un ingrediente capace di elevare un tagliere, arricchire un antipasto o impreziosire un panino gourmet. Saper riconoscere e scegliere un prosciutto crudo di alta qualità è quindi un aspetto fondamentale affinché si possa offrire un'esperienza culinaria memorabile e fidelizzare al meglio la clientela. Ma come orientarsi tra le diverse offerte del mercato, dai fornitori all'aspetto qualitativo intrinseco del prodotto?

Nel 1967, Shel Shapiro e il suo gruppo cantavano ‘Bisogna saper perdere’, un messaggio che, a distanza di oltre mezzo secolo, è ancora incredibilmente attuale. Ma cosa vuol dire davvero saper perdere in un’epoca dove la pressione di vincere sembra dominare ogni aspetto della vita dei ragazzi? Nicoletta Carbone ne parla Obiettivo Salute Weekend con Shel Shapiro, cantante, autore e compositore e Stefano Rossi, psicopedagogista ed esperto di educazione emotiva e autore di Sarò il tuo porto sicuro (Feltrinelli).

La moda del momento nella Silicon Valley e in generale nel mondo informatico è creare software senza scriverne il codice diprogrammazione ma delegando tutto all'intelligenza artificiale. Alcuni esempi concreti sembrano indicare che funzioni, riduca enormemente i tempi di sviluppo e permetta di affidare la creazione di software anche a persone non esperte, riducendo i costi. Ecco come funziona in pratica il “vibe coding”, come usarlo e quando usarlo.

ROMA (ITALPRESS) - La scorsa settimana il Ministro per lo Sport e i Giovani, Andrea Abodi, ha raggiunto gli speaker di Radioimmaginaria, la radio degli adolescenti, ai loro microfoni. Ma come fa un Ministro a sapere quello di cui gli adolescenti hanno bisogno? Lo hanno chiesto proprio a lui!fsc/gtr

Quando apprezzi qualcuno, vuol dire che ne riconosci il valore. Perché l'apprezzamento, quando è sincero, si chiama stima, ringraziamento, ammirazione, riguardo. Metterlo in pratica richiede molta buona volontà, perché stimare una persona significa apprezzarla nel suo pieno valore, anche quando il suo comportamento non lo esprime appieno, e vale anche per te. Avere riguardo verso la tua sensibilità, il tuo modo di percepire, ammirazione per la tua capacità di affrontare e superare le difficoltà della vita, ringraziarti, perché ti stai impegnando, è indispensabile per riuscire ad apprezzare anche gli altri. Saper esprimere un complimento che viene dal cuore è indice di indipendenza di pensiero e di libertà di sentimento. Se non ti è facile esprimere apprezzamento, mentre la critica arriva anche quando non vorresti che ci fosse, o ricevere, un apprezzamento, vuol dire che non stai usando nel modo giusto quel potere che appartiene alla consapevolezza della bellezza che puoi essere e portare nella tua esistenza. Perché gli apprezzamenti fanno bene all'anima. Alla tua, e a quella degli altri. “L'apprezzamento è una cosa meravigliosa; fa sì che ciò che è eccellente negli altri appartenga anche a noi” (Voltaire)- Puoi leggere la trascrizione dell'audio qui: https://annarosapacini.com/il-potere-dellapprezzamento/- E da questa pagina puoi iscriverti liberamente al mio podcast Comunicare per essere®: https://annarosapacini.com/podcast/  una filosofia di vita pratica e concreta, che permette di mettere da subito in atto il cambiamento- Comunicazione valoriale, Relazioni, Professione, Benessere.

Quante volte abbiamo sentito la frase “in montagna bisogna saper rinunciare” da amici, istruttori e guide? E' ovviamente un consiglio validissimo, ma che spesso manca di un esempio che ne rafforzi il concetto. Una lacuna a cui poniamo rimedio con questo episodio con protagonista l'incidente accaduto ad Alessandro, durante un'uscita con l'amico Gabriele. Un'intervista a due voci molto onesta e dritta al punto: l'errore finale è ancora una volta solo l'ultimo anello di una serie di errori che sono costati ad Alessandro ben 23 giorni di ospedale. Abbiamo parlato di “non sentirsela”, di comunicazione lacunosa e anche di radio PMR e del progetto Rete Radio Montana

ROMA (ITALPRESS) - "L'informazione non è un prodotto, ma un bene essenziale. Saper distinguere il vero dal falso è indispensabile, così come scongiurare il rischio che, per i nativi digitali, l'informazione coincida con flussi ininterrotti di notizie senza analisi critica della consistenza di ciascuna”. Così il presidente della Repubblica, Sergio Mattarella, all'evento per i 25 anni dell'Osservatorio Permanente Giovani-Editori.ads/gsl (Fonte video: Quirinale)

Saper scegliere - Gpt search tra informazioni e spiegazioniLa ricerca non e' mai uguale. Il form sembra uguale per tutte le ricerche, ma in realtà le risposta cambiano dal tipo di domanda.E se dalla ricerca di informazioni passassimo alla ricerca di spiegazioni gia' pronte ?Restermo critici o siamo abituati dai social a lasciare scegliere le macchine il meglio per noi ?

Dal Vangelo secondo MatteoIn quel tempo, vedendo le folle, Gesù salì sul monte: si pose a sedere e si avvicinarono a lui i suoi discepoli. Si mise a parlare e insegnava loro dicendo:«Beati i poveri in spirito,perché di essi è il regno dei cieli.Beati quelli che sono nel pianto,perché saranno consolati.Beati i miti,perché avranno in eredità la terra.Beati quelli che hanno fame e sete della giustizia,perché saranno saziati.Beati i misericordiosi,perché troveranno misericordia.Beati i puri di cuore,perché vedranno Dio.Beati gli operatori di pace,perché saranno chiamati figli di Dio.Beati i perseguitati per la giustizia,perché di essi è il regno dei cieli.Beati voi quando vi insulteranno, vi perseguiteranno e, mentendo, diranno ogni sorta di male contro di voi per causa mia. Rallegratevi ed esultate, perché grande è la vostra ricompensa nei cieli».Commento da parte di don Federico Boetti, sacerdote della diocesi di Mondovì

Last time we spoke about the return of Chiang Kai-Shek and reunification of the KMT. After Wang Jingwei left for France, the KMT elected on bringing back Chiang Kai-Shek, believing he was the only one capable of unifying the NRA. During his exile, Chiang married Soong Meiling, ensuring financial support from bankers and industrialists. Chiang had been working behind the scenes to ensure support and restructured the party upon his return. He centralized power, promoted military academies, and prepared for the resumption of the Northern Expedition. In early 1928, the KMT launched a campaign to capture northern China. However as the NPA fled north towards Jinan, the Japanese began reinforcing the city under the guise it was to defend their citizens. A large incident known as the Jinan incident occurred, nearly bringing Japan and China to war in 1928. Henceforth Chiang Kai-Shek would consider Japan the greatest enemy to China…perhaps after communism.   #117 The Northern Expedition Part 8: The reunification of China Welcome to the Fall and Rise of China Podcast, I am your dutiful host Craig Watson.

If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel where I cover the history of China and Japan from the 19th century until the end of the Pacific War. In early May of 1928, the NRA began advancing north out of its bridgehead over the Yellow River. They had been deprived of the use of the Tianjin-Pukou railway, thus forced to march 60 miles. General Chen Tiaoyuan of the first collective army captured Tehzhou on May 13th. At this point the NRA had cleared out most of northern Shandong. The first collective army then combined with Feng Yuxiang's 2nd along the North China plain to march upon Beijing over 200 miles away. Meanwhile Yan Xishans 3rd collective army was in position to take the left wing of the wrong, arched around the Yellow River all the way to the Great wall near Beijing. Yan Xishans 3rd collective army had been fighting the NPA ever since early April, when Zhang Zuolin attempted an invasion of Shanxi, just before the NRA arrived in the north. In mid april Yan Xishan had heavily fortified the mountain range that oversaw the railroad to Taiyuan while Zhang Zuolins offensive had been blocked. In north Shanxi, Zhang Zuolin had pressed deeply inside the ancient part of the Great Wall of China, first taking Dadung and then Shuozhou. On May 8th Yan Xishan had assembled enough forces to mount a counteroffensive. He recaptured Shuozhou and pushed the NPA over the northern border. By the 25th, the eastern point of Yan Xishans counteroffensive was advancing along the railway connecting Taiyuan with the North China plain pushing the NPA out of the Shanxi highlands. As Yan Xishans forces descended into the North China plain, alongside other NRA forces, there were now nearly 1 million troops assembled for battle. Over the plain Feng Yuxiangs 2nd collective army followed the Beijing-Hankou railway while Yan Xishan followed parallel north through the highlands bordering Shanxi. Both collective armies converged upon Baoting, erecting a siege. Yan Xishan unleashed his attack threatening the side gate of Beijing, forcing Zhang Zuolin to divide the NPA. The NPA forces fought fiercely to defend Baoting over in the south while at Chang-chia-k'ou, also known as Kalgan, the strategic ancient gateway for caravans and armies of Beijing to cross, fell to Yan Xishan on May 25th. The next day Yan Xishan captured Nankou, the last mountain pass defending Beijing. It seemed likely Yan Xishan would be the first to enter Beijing.  The joint operation by the 3 collective NRA armies had faced a lot of hardship through the North China Plain. In early April when the NPA invaded Shanxi they had also advanced south against Feng Yuxiangs bridgehead along the Yellow River. Had their double offensive succeeded, the Northern Expedition probably would have ground to a halt, right smack dab during the Jinan incident, holding back the 1st collective army. At that point the three large NPA forces who numbered around 1.5 million troops and enjoyed shorter supply lines over shortened rail would have devestated the NRA. Yet by mid april, Feng Yuxians 2nd collective army halted the NPA's southern thrust and tossed them back on their ass. South of the Yellow River, elements of Feng Yuxiangs men aided Chiang Kai-Sheks against Jinan to take the Hantan station, part of the Beijing-Hankou railway line on April 17th. The NPA as per usual enjoyed an advantge in heavy artillery and along the North China Plain it was placed atop railway cars causing havoc against the advancing NRA. Yet as powerful as their armored trains and railway artillery was, the NPA had become too dependent on it for victory. The NRA simply hooked around to threaten the NPA's railway line arteries in the rear, forcing commanders to retreat once taken.  Thus when Yan Xishans 3rd collective army broke out of Shanxi and confronted the NPA down in the plain at the railway intersections such as at Shihchiachuang, Zhang Zuolin began to withdraw north taking a defensive posture. Following the NPA retreat, Feng Yuxiang linked up with Yan Xishan to besiege Shihchiachuang from the south. Being assaulted from two sides, the vital railway crossroad fell on May 9th. The final drive to Beijing saw enormous masses of troops converging upon a deminishing field. While from the southeast it was still another 200 miles, Yan Xishans forward outposts in the northwest could look down on Beijing. The southern sector was divided into 3 routes; Yan Xishan advanced through the Shanxi border highlands; Feng Yuxiang over the Beijing-Hankou railway and Chiang Kai-Shek over the Tianjin-Pukou railway. While the bulk of Chiang Kai-Sheks 1st collective army had been forced to detour around Jinan, some units stayed behind to act as a guard force around the city. There remained an air of anxiety amongst the NRA commanders that the Japanese might intervene at Beijing. By mid May the end of the battle for Beijing still seemed distant. Zhang Zuolin had tossed 200,000 troops in a desperate counteroffensive from May 17th to the 25th. He concentrated his forces into a gap between the 1st and 2nd NRA collective armies. This saw the 1st crumble under the pressure and fall back south. The 1st then mounted a stand at Dunkuang, but were unable to regain the momentum of their offensive until end of May. Within the central sector, the NPA did not only smash Feng Yuxiangs siege of Baoting, they forced the 2nd collective NRA army south 40 miles along the Beijing-Hankou railway to Dingzhou. There the NPA unleashed their heavy artillery to keep Feng Yuxiangs forces locked down. It would not be until May 25th, when the NPA failed to hit Feng Yuxiangs flank, that the tide of battle turned.  The NPA counteroffensive had driven the NRA collective armies to cooperate. From Honan, Li Zongren rushed his 4th Collective Army under the leadership of Pai Chongxi north of the Beijing-Hankou railway to assist Feng Yuxiang's battered sector. Yan Xishan's capture of Nankou far in the north heavily helped the war effort by weakening  diverting the NPA's forces and resources from the southern push. Chiang Kai-Shek then launched his forces by rail to be at assembly points by May 25th so the momentum could resume. Feng Yuxiang launched cavalry units, spearheading north between the two north-south railway lines to threaten the NPA's lines of communications. Within the hills bordering the north China plain, Yan Xishans men fought their way down into the flatland and captured Mancheng by the 27th.  Meanwhile at Beijing, Zhang Zuolin oversaw 100,000 of his Manchurian troops holding the line alongside the other NPA units along the plain. They were under threat from growing pressure along the two railway lines, from the flanking attack coming out of Shanxi and from the rear as some of Yan Xishans forces were reaching the suburbs of Beijing. On May 30th, Zhang Zuolin, the leader of the NPA began to concentrate his own men towards himself. To shorten his lines of communication and concentrate more forces into a compact area, he tossed a counterattack against Mancheng. However the arrival of the 4th collective NRA army from central china simply made that flank untenable, his counterattack was cut in the bud. Zhang Zuolin pulled his troops back, even out of Baoting. Yet his desperate counter attack on Mancheng had inflicted heavy casualties upon Yan Xishans forces, claiming the lives of 4300 and wounded 15,000. Zhang Zuolin's troops suffered similar losses.  Over on the right wing along the Tianjing-Pukou railway, the 1st collective NRA army had been pushed back to Dungkuang, but by late May was rejoining the offensive. By the 28th, they were advancing forward alongside the other armies, covering within 30 miles of Zangzhou. The NRA advance sped up greatly as the NPA began a general retreat, shortening their defensive perimeter along the Ding River, the Wen'an swamp and across the Grand Canal at Mancheng. The leaders of the collective armies met on May 29th at the Lowei railway station where they agreed on a plan to perform a final assault to take the capital of China. Since Yan Xishan was already in place at Nankou, and the hills overlooking Beijing's plain, it was agreed that he would enter first. Thus the turtle warlord earned an incredible honor. See kids the turtle always beats the hare.  Once again Chiang Kai-Shek became anxious over the prospect a foreign power like Japan might intervene. When meeting with Feng Yuxiang and Yan Xishan, Chiang Kai-Shek informed them of the possible dangers after what had been seen at Jinan. All the foreign garrisons at Beijing seemed to be on high alert, over 4500 men of 4 different nations between Tianjin and Beijing along its railway. Chiang Kai-Shek gave strict orders not to molest any foreign troops, no need to start a new Boxer Rebellion. To fan Chiang Kai-Shek's fears, on May 18th a official Japanese memorandum addressed to him, but with copies sent to all the NRA leaders, warned both sides not to drag their civil war into Manchuria. It was stated if Zhang Zuolin's army was annihilated “Japan may take appropriate and effective steps for the maintenance of peace and order in Manchuria.” This memorandum was accompanied by Japanese reinforcements to Beijing, now reaching nearly 2000 men. They were forming a defensive perimeter around the legation quarter and the Japanese hospital. Over in Shandong the Kwantung army now had 15,000 troops who were refusing to depart Jinan. In fact the Kwantung army sent an ultimatum demanding the removal of all Chinese troops from Qingdao. While this may look like a saving grace for Zhang Zuolin, in many ways it was a death sentence to his career. Zhang Zuolin had struggled ever since becoming the Tiger of Manchuria to not be seen as a Japanese puppet, and Japan was doing a terrible job of hiding it. Yet again Zhang Zuolin took action to disassociate from the Japanese, by replying to the memorandum stating, that in light of the Washington Conference principles he could not recognize Japan's interests in Manchuria. Uh Oh. Very unwise words from the old Marshal. The KMT propaganda against him was working like a charm, demoralizing the NPA forces. By early June the 3 NPA armies holding on desperately to the defensive perimeter were wearing down. Baoting had fallen to the NRA and the KMT propaganda was breaking morale. The Kwantung army was demanding the NPA withdraw back into Manchuria where a better defensive line could be established. Yet the NPA for all their defeats and misgivings, were not broken, they were not defeated and still enjoyed greater firepower and shorter logistical lines. Now defending the line was Zhang Zuolins forces in the western sector; Sun Chuan fangs in the center and Zhang Zongchang in the east near Tianjin.   On June 3rd Zhang Zuolin departed with his general staff back to Manchuria by train, dramatically dropping morale for the NPA. The KMT pumped up the propaganda, stressing the NPA's position was hopeless and publicized that Zhang Zuolin had sent his family back to the safety of Mukden. Meanwhile a KMT agent named Nan Kueixiang had been working since early June to persuade Sun Chuanfang to abandon his allies. On June 4th he did just that, suddenly departing with his troops away from the center sector of the defensive line. Feng Yuxiangs men stormed the vacant central sector, cutting the railway line connecting Beijing to Tianjin by June 6th. Sun Chuanfang had managed to escape, fleeing first for Dairen, then Japan into exile. Over in the western sector, Yan Xishan's 7th division led by Sun Qu hooked quickly around the NPA flank and by the morning of the 6th, marched triumphantly through the gates of Beijing. The occupation of the capital was to be bloodless, as agreed upon by the collective army commanders. This was mostly the case, though incidents certainly occurred. The foreign powers demanded protection in Beijing and that the NPA regiment of Pao Yulin remain in the capital to maintain order and then be permitted safe passage to Manchuria. But a subordinate of Feng Yuxiang broke such agreements by grabbing some of the Manchurians captive causing quite a crisis. The crisis was soon averted when the captives were handed back over, but such an incident showcased how the NRA units were still not fully united. Over in the eastern sector, Zhang Zongchang put up a more determined resistance as he tried to extort over 2 millions dollars from Tianjin's merchant associations in return for a bloodless and orderly retreat from their city. The Dogmeat General to the bitter end. In a fit of frustration he laid down a giant barrage of heavy artillery against the approaching 1st collective NRA army trying to ford the Hai river approaching Tianjin. Because the foreign concessions at Tianjin sat on the south bank of the Hai River, the 1st collective army was forced to approach from the west to avoid them, especially the Japanese concession.  Chiang Kai-Shek gave strict orders for the units to “disarm all northerners who try to enter the foreign concessions … and … make no attempt to enter the foreign concessions…. We will do our best to handle the difficult situation in the most pacific manner.” KMT agents had been secretly contacting NPA officers since late 1927 and within Tianjin their efforts paid off. Lu Hosheng had been offering NPA officers various deals for their defection or surrender. By June of 1928, Lu Hosheng secured a deal with General Xu Yuanquan of the Fengtian 6th army who had been reinforcing Zhang Zongchangs sector around Tianjin. During a secret meeting on June 7th Lu Hoshen persuaded Xu Yuanquan to turn himself and his men over to the 1st collective NRA army on the 11th. This defection weakened Zhang Zongchangs line, ending any hopes of him retaining Tianjin. Xu Yuanquan got a position under Yan Xishan commanding the 11th corps. From June 11th to September 3rd, mop up operations were undertaken by Pai Chongxi east of Beijing. It was not until the 7th of September that Pai Chongxi's force consisting of various elements of the 4 collective NRA armies would see real action. On that day, Zhang Zongchang lined up his army behind a defensive system built around Tangshan. Zhang Zongchang was completely alone, but determined to not go down without a fight. He led his forces for two days fighting at Tangshan until they withdrew towards Shanhaiguan. His last stand was made along the Luan River from September 15-23rd. The NRA breached his lines, overwhelmed his men, killing and capturing countless.  Zhang Zuolin had become very uncooperative towards the Japanese upon the 23rd hour of the war. Even before the Beijing campaign, in 1927 when Tanaka Giichi became prime minister of Japan, he began demanding railway and mining rights, to set up new factories and to rent out land from Zhang Zuolin. This was met with large scale protests, 100,000 people demonstrated in Mukden calling for Tanaka's cabinet to fall. Zhang Zuolin rejected the demands and publicly said ‘I, Zhang Zuolin, am Chinese, and I am at odds with the Japanese. Japan is trying to invade Northeast China. I the King of the Northeast, will never allow it!”. Bold words of the old Marshal. From the Japanese point of view, or to be more specific, from the perspective of junior, youthful officers of the Kwantung army, many of whom were affiliated with the Kodoha faction and avid listeners for speeches made by Kanji Ishiwara. Zhang Zuolin had become a major problem. From their viewpoint, the NRA, whose ranks held some communists and support from the Soviet Union, were on the verge of invading what they considered their most significant sphere of influence, Manchuria. If Manchuria were to fall under the Nationalists or worse communists, this was deemed strategically unacceptable towards Japan's future goals. They had used the Tiger of Manchuria for a long time to act as a bulwark against such an occurrence, but he went renegade, trying to conquer China proper and in doing so, lost and dragged their enemy to the doorstep of Manchuria. The Kwantung army had helped build up the Fengtian army and had deep connections to it. They had gradually groomed a new puppet in the form of General Yang Yuting, to be a possible replacement for the Old Marshal, and it seemed that time had come.  Zhang Zuolin had departed Beijing for Mukden on the night of June 3rd of 1928. He got aboard a train along the Jingfeng railway, a route defended by his own Fengtian troops. However there was a single location along said railway that was not under his control, a bridge a few kilometers east of Huanggutun station. Here the railway crossed over the South Manchuria Railway via a bridge, which of course was owned by Japan. A junior officer, Colonel Daisaku Kōmoto, for those who listen to my personal podcast, the Pacific War Channel Podcast, he has become kind of a funny character. He will be responsible for an unbelievable amount of false flag operations, but this would be his first famous one. Komoto, alongside many of his junior officer colleagues, believed assassinating Zhang Zuolin and replacing him with General Yang Yuting would benefit the Empire of Japan. If they could install their hand picked puppet, perhaps he would be more malleable to their demands. Now again if you want a more thorough explanation for what is going on in the Japanese military, head on over to my personal channel, I recommend the 4 part series on Kanji Ishiwara, fascinating stuff. But to brutally summarize, there exists a term in Japanese Gekokujō. It means for a person in a lower position to overthrow someone in a higher position, specifically in terms of military or politics. It loosely means in english “the lower rules the higher”. This term actually goes all the way back to Sui dynasty China and came over to Japan during the Kamakura period. During the chaotic Sengoku period it was seen quite often. During the Showa Period it would become a very popular tool employed by junior officers, particularly those of the Kodoha faction. Now I keep saying that word, Kodoha Faction, many of you might be asking, what the hell is that, some other warlord group? In the years leading up to WW2, Japan's political and military landscape was characterized by intense internal rivalries and ideological divisions. Two of the most significant factions within the Japanese military were the Kōdōha or “Imperial Way Faction” and the Tōseiha or “Control Faction”. These factions, though both rooted in nationalism and the desire for Japan's expansion, differed markedly in their ideologies, goals, and methodology. The Kōdōha faction was a radical nationalist group within the Japanese Army. This faction was deeply influenced by the ideas of Shintoism and bushido, and it advocated for a return to traditional Japanese values and an emphasis on spiritual purity and moral integrity. The Kōdōha believed that Japan was destined to lead Asia and that this could only be achieved through the overthrow of the existing political system, which they saw as corrupt and overly influenced by Western ideas. Now to be more specific the Kōdōha envisioned a military dictatorship led directly by the Emperor, supported by the army. They were fervent supporters of direct imperial rule and sought to eliminate the influence of what they deemed to be corrupt politicians and bureaucrats. I simply cant go to far down the rabbit hole, but these Kodoha guys were young and many came from rural Japan, from poor families. They say the industrialists, specifically the Zaibatsu as this corrupt part of their nation, strangling her and the emperor. They blamed much of Japans problems on the industrialists and their corrupt colleagues, the politicians. The faction was also characterized by its anti-modernization stance, opposing Western-style industrialization and instead promoting agrarianism and self-sufficiency. Although its not pertinent to our story yet, the Tōseiha Faction by contrast, represented a more pragmatic and modernizing force within the Japanese military. This faction recognized the importance of industrialization and technological advancement in building a strong and competitive nation. The Tōseiha believed that Japan needed to modernize its military and economy to succeed in its imperial ambitions. The Tōseiha favored a more bureaucratic and technocratic approach to governance. They sought to work within the existing political framework, strengthening the influence of the military in government affairs through legal and political means rather than revolutionary violence. The faction aimed to create a centralized, efficient state apparatus capable of mobilizing the nation's resources for war. While both factions shared the ultimate goal of expanding Japan's power and influence, their methods and underlying philosophies were markedly different. The Kōdōha's radicalism and emphasis on traditional values and spiritual purity stood in stark contrast to the Tōseiha's pragmatism and modernization efforts. Quite the detour, can you tell I have explained these two factions multiple times before haha? The Japanese military during the Showa era is a fascinating and horrifying subject, again for you guys who want to know more check out some of recent work covering the Huanggutun incident, mukden incident, invasion of Manchuria series and the Kanji Ishiwara series. Currently working on a Japanese invasion of Mongolia and north china series with a new animator, exciting stuff.  Back to Komodo, he like many Kodoha youth saw gekokujō as this ultimate tool to use to make ends meet. During the 1920's they assassinated countless, politicians, businessmen, military commanders and such. The period literally became referred to as “government by assassination” it was that bad. And here with Zhang Zuolin gekokujō would reak its ugly head. Komodo came up with a plan, well another colleague, Lt General Sasaki Toichi would later claim he gave him the idea, but Komodo planned to lay a bomb over the railway track Zhang Zuolin was traveling to kill him. Komodo had his subordinate, Captain Kaneo Tomiya plan the operation. Captain Kaneo found the bridge point and enlisted other Kwantung officers, such as a Major who was in charge of guards in the area and a demolition expert installed the explosives. Komoto also hired 3 dissatisfied Manchurians to be close by the explosion site. If Zhang Zuolin survived the explosion, they were to rush to his car and kill him. The bomb was planted by Saper 1st Lt Sadatoshi Fujii. At 5:23am on June 4th the bomb exploded as Zhang Zuolin's train was passing over. Several of Zhang Zuolins officials, like the governor of Heilongjiang province, Wu Junsheng were killed instantly. Zhang Zuolin was sitting at a mah jong table when his car blew up, sending a steel fragment into his nose which would kill him hours later. After the incident, Komodo's gang stabbed 2 out of the 3 Manchurians trying to pin the blame on them, but the 3rd got away rushing straight to the headquarters of Zhang Zuolin's son, Zhang Xueiliang. Things did not go as planned for the Kwantung assassins. They knew Zhan Zuolin had chosen as heir his son Zhang Xueliang, but this did not trouble them. That was of course because Zhang Xueliang was a major drug addict and considered easily controlled. But they had not considered the fact someone got away and reported the young marshal who had killed his father.  Zhang Xueliang kept his father's death a secret for over two weeks while he secretly spoke with Chiang Kai-Shek striking a deal. Then Zhang Xueliang officially took his father's mantle as ruler of Manchuria on June 21, but knowing a public announcement of his fathers assassins would cause a violent reaction from Japan, chose to keep the peace. Oh and by keeping the peace he made sure to execute two of his father's pro-japanese subordinates, who may have even been implicated in the assassination.  The Kwantung Army leadership were caught completely off guard. Komoto's radical group had performed the assassination without approval of the Imperial General Headquarters nor from his own Kwantung Army leadership. The Kwantung army was unable to rally forces together to take advantage of the chaos…because there simply was no chaos, Zhang Xueliang made sure of that. Even with Zhang Xueliang as the new ruler, the Kwantung Army still probably hoped that he would prove to be more pliant than his father as he had a reputation as a playboy and was a rampant opium addict. But murdering his father proved to have backfired spectacularly, for he immediately switched allegiances from Japan to Chiang Kai-shek in December of 1928. He even got off opium with the help of his friend, journalist William Donald. Way to go Japan. Tanaka was outraged when he found out who was responsible and resolved to punish Komoto and his radical gang, but some of his fellow cabinet members sympathized with their cause and began to oppose holding the assassins responsible. Army Minister Shirakawa Yoshinori and Railway Minister Ogawa led a coalition against Tanaka, claiming his actions would harm the imperial house, worsen Sino-Japanese relations and undermine Japan's special interests in China. Oh and of course the cabinet did not want to be held accountable for basically allowing the radicals to do what they did.   Emperor Hirohito was likewise outraged, immediately calling for those responsible to be punished which forced an internal investigation of the matter. Tanaka gave a formal report of what occurred to Emperor Hirohito, stating he intended to court martial the assailants, purge the army and re-establish discipline. … Well Tanaka would be informed later that the Emperor refused to meet with him further, leaving Tanaka alone to face the entire army, basically meaning he was being dismissed. Tanaka resigned, and the cabinet covered up the incident, treating it as an internal administrative matter. Emperor Hirohito accepted the army's intention to lie to the public about the incident and give the culprits minor administrative punishments. Thus Hirohito saved his own face, but also allowed the Kwantung Army to defy the Tokyo government, something that would not bite him in the ass later. Colonel Komodo was forced to resign his post as senior staff officer and would be succeeded by Lt Colonel Ishiwara. Komodo and Ishiwara would work very closely before he left his station, making sure the next steps to solve the Manchurian problem were met.  Thus Zhang Xueliang negotiated with Chiang Kai-Shek from June until the end of 1928. During this period Zhang Xueliang consolidated his hold over Manchuria and he was given quite the challenge by his fathers former subordinates. On December 29th of 1928, the KMT flag flew over Mukden. China was unified. The next day the KMT government appointed Zhang Xueliang commander of the Northeast Border defense army with his own Manchurian troops. Chiang Kai-Shek had done the unimaginable in only two years. However, on June 11th as Yan Xishan entered Beijing, he whispered an ominous warning to Feng Yuxiang, that there were those going around “spreading rumors to stir up inner dissensions”. Not all was well in camelot.  I would like to take this time to remind you all that this podcast is only made possible through the efforts of Kings and Generals over at Youtube.

The future looked bright, one could see a rising sun in the distance, oh wait that is the empire of Japan.

Roberto Cazzola"Un quarto di pera di Giulio Einaudi"E altre memorie editorialiSeb27 Edizioniwww.seb27.itMuovendo da un affettuoso e divertito racconto degli anni trascorsi accanto a Giulio Einaudi, e da una lunga esperienza presso Adelphi, l'autore riflette sugli obiettivi di un'editoria e una letteratura che sappiano conservare la memoria del passato e anticipare i tempi, che siano capaci di cogliere quanto ribolle nel sottosuolo della società e della psiche, e aprano così nuovi orizzonti. Saper leggere il mondo attraverso “libri necessari”, come quelli consigliati alle migliori case editrici da Roberto Bazlen (cui è dedicato un capitolo del libro), ci aiuta ad affinare la nostra sensibilità verso il nuovo che si annuncia e che non deve coglierci impreparati. Nelle loro opere rabdomantiche e anticipatrici, scrittori presaghi come Kafka, Benjamin o Dürrenmatt avevano già visto tutto. Ma chi seppe ascoltarli? Una letteratura e un'editoria consapevoli del loro valore civile ed etico assolvono a un compito conoscitivo, giacché «il romanzo che non scopre una porzione di esistenza fino ad allora ignota è immorale. La conoscenza è la sola morale del romanzo», come ci ricorda Milan Kundera. Roberto Cazzola è nato a Torino nel 1953, già responsabile della germanistica per Einaudi e per Adelphi, ha insegnato all'Università di Vienna. Ha pubblicato (con Gian Enrico Rusconi) Il «caso Austria» da Einaudi, il volume di racconti La fedeltà da Marcos y Marcos, e i romanzi Lavati le mani, Elmar e La delazione (Premio Mondello 2010) da Casagrande. Collabora con il seminario Giustizia e Letteratura dell'Università Cattolica di Milano e con l'Associazione per la ricerca in psicologia analitica (Arpa). Ha partecipato al seminario Wertewelten presso l'Università di Tubinga e ai convegni della Fondazione Eranos di Ascona. Ha tradotto opere di Joseph Roth, Friedrich Dürrenmatt e Reiner Stach.  IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Saper tollerare emozioni scomode è un'abilità utilissima e bellissima per gli esseri umani. Non si nasce con questa abilità già sviluppata ma la si apprende nel tempo se abbiamo un adulto di riferimento alla guida che è capace di farlo. A volte, di fronte alla frustrazione, alla rabbia o alla tristezza dei nostri bambini, noi genitori interveniamo in maniera troppo brusca o aggressiva o siamo tentati di distrarre o bloccare immediatamente quelle emozioni.  In questo episodio ti parlo di regolazione emotiva negli adulti e ti elenco alcune modalità che ci danno l'illusione di calmare le tempeste emotive del bambino, ma che a lungo termine non sono strategie utili e sane.  E successivamente ti do strategie pratiche per elaborare ed esprimere le emozioni tue e di tuo figlio in modo sano. Prendi le cuffie e metti play!

Virtus Maria Zallot"Nei cieli del Medioevo"Festa del Libro Medievale e Antico di Saluzzowww.salonelibro.itSabato 21 ottobre 2023, ore 19:00Il Quartiere, Saluzzo"Nei cieli del Medioevo"Lezione di Virtus Maria ZallotI cieli dell'immaginario medievale sono attraversati da insospettabile traffico di persone che salgono, scendono e viaggiano, ricorrendo a soluzioni straordinarie o a improbabili espedienti. Attraverso racconti e immagini, se ne analizzeranno tipologie ed esempi.Domenica 22 ottobre 2023, ore 16:30Il Quartiere, Saluzzo"Il presepe di San Francesco. Storia del Natale di Greccio"Virtus Maria Zallot presenta il libro postumo di Chiara FrugoniA 800 anni dal primo presepe qual è la storia della sua invenzione? Avvincente e suggestivo, il racconto della più grande studiosa del santo di Assisi«Voglio evocare il ricordo di quel Bambino nato a Betlemme, e in qualche modo vedere con gli occhi del cuore i disagi in cui si è trovato per la mancanza delle cose necessarie a un neonato, e come fu adagiato in una greppia quando fu messo sul fieno tra il bue e l'asino». Con queste parole – secondo il suo primo biografo – Francesco chiede a un fedele amico di Greccio di predisporre quanto serve per realizzare il presepe. Ma dove sono i personaggi principali, la Madonna e il bambino? Perché mai Francesco sceglie di rappresentare il Natale solo attraverso la greppia colma di fieno, fra due animali non nominati dai vangeli canonici? Saper leggere e mettere a confronto le fonti con rigore e sottigliezza, saper decifrare le immagini con acume finissimo: armata degli strumenti in cui eccelleva, Chiara Frugoni si avvicina – e noi con lei – alla figura del santo di Assisi, illuminando la vera posta in gioco del Natale di Greccio, quel potente messaggio di pace che dal 1223 ancora oggi vibra di una mai sopita spiritualità rivoluzionaria.Chiara Frugoni (1940-2022) ha insegnato Storia medievale nelle Università di Pisa, Roma e Parigi. Tra i suoi numerosi libri segnaliamo, per il Mulino, «Vivere nel Medioevo. Donne, uomini e soprattutto bambini» (2017), «Uomini e animali nel Medioevo. Storie fantastiche e feroci» (2018), «Paradiso vista Inferno. Buon governo e tirannide nel Medioevo di Ambrogio Lorenzetti» (2019), «Paure medievali. Epidemie, prodigi, fine del tempo» (2020), «Donne medievali. Sole, indomite, avventurose» (2021) e «A letto nel Medioevo. Come e con chi» (2022).Virtus Zallot è docente di Storia dell'Arte medievale all'Accademia di Belle Arti SantaGiulia di Brescia. Studia l'arte quale comunicazione visiva, in relazione a funzione e contesto; indaga la storia ‘minore' e l'immaginario medievali attraverso fonti iconografiche e letterarie.Autrice di saggi, per Il Mulino di Bologna ha pubblicato Sulle teste nel Medioevo. Storie e immagini di capelli (2021) e Con i piedi nel Medioevo. Gesti e calzature nell'arte e nell'immaginario (2018).Per Il Giornale dell'Arte scrive articoli, recensioni e i cicli Piccole storie dal Medioevo. Interviene con contributi tematici alla trasmissione GEO, su Rai3. Nel 2022 e nel 2023 è stata ospite al Festival del Medioevo di Gubbio.

Pour la troisième année consécutive, l'Argentine est en proie à une interminable sécheresse qui fait des ravages dans les champs de céréales et de soja. Un problème de taille pour un pays surendetté qui tire la majorité de ses revenus d'exportation de sa rente agricole. Reportage dans la région de Rosario, le cœur productif du pays où les agriculteurs sont particulièrement affectés par le manque de précipitations. San Jeronimo, à une quarantaine de kilomètres à l'ouest de Rosario. Tout en gardant un œil sur la route, Marcos Giacomoni montre les champs de soja qui s'étendent à perte de vue : « Actuellement, les plants de soja mesurent environ 25 centimètres, alors que théoriquement, ils devraient faire 40 ou 50 centimètres de haut. Ça, c'est à cause de la grande sécheresse qu'il y a eu ». Les cheveux blonds, les yeux bleus aussi clairs que le drapeau argentin, cet ingénieur agronome travaille pour la coopérative agricole AFA. « Cette année, il est tombé 580 mm de pluie, contre 930 mm en temps normal. En trois ans de sécheresse, on a perdu l'équivalent d'une année de pluie », déplore-t-il. Une mauvaise récolte et des parcelles non semées Dans cette zone considérée comme le cœur productif de l'Argentine, le manque de précipitations qui dure depuis 2020 a laissé les nappes phréatiques à sec. « Je n'ai jamais vu une telle sécheresse de ma vie », témoigne du haut de ses 80 ans Luis Golosetti, qui continue de travailler les 340 hectares de son exploitation familiale. « On avait déjà eu une très mauvaise récolte de blé, et ça a continué avec le soja. Il y a même beaucoup de parcelles qui n'ont pas pu être semées, et d'autres qui l'ont été à un moment inadéquat. » L'aridité des sols a en effet retardé les semis de soja et de maïs, avec de lourdes conséquences sur les rendements. La pluie a bien fini par tomber fin janvier, mais les pertes sont déjà là, selon Julio Calzada, directeur des études de la Bourse de commerce de Rosario. « Selon nos estimations, la production de soja, de maïs et de blé serait inférieure de 28 millions de tonnes par rapport à ce qui était attendu en début de campagne ». « Un coup dur pour le pays » Une baisse de production qui va se répercuter sur les ventes à l'international de céréales et dérivés, qui représentaient l'an passé la moitié des exportations argentines, souligne Julio Calzada : « Cela représente 8 millions de dollars d'exportations en moins pour l'Argentine. Et c'est un coup dur pour un pays qui a d'importants problèmes macroéconomiques et de manque de dollars.  »  Si cette sécheresse est due à la « Niña », un phénomène climatique naturel entrainant des déficits cycliques de précipitations sur les plaines argentines, les spécialistes de la Bourse de commerce de Rosario sont formels : la persistance et l'intensité exceptionnelle de cet épisode de sécheresse sont intimement liées au dérèglement climatique. ► À écouter aussi : Comment fait-on la prévision des récoltes?
