This is not the famed Isaac of Syria (commemorated Jan 28) who wrote the Ascetical Homilies, but a monk who settled in Spoleto and was famed for his holy, solitary life, his miracles, and his discernment. The people of Spoleto sought to honor him with money and other gifts, but he refused everything and withdrew to a cell in the forest. Soon a large monastery grew up there as others joined him in his life of prayer.   Once, two nearly naked men came begging clothing from Isaac. He told a monk to go to a hollow tree some distance away, and to bring back what he found there. The monk returned with some clothing, and gave it to the beggars. They were shamed to find that it was their own clothing, which they had hidden in the tree.   A man gave two beehives to the monastery. A monk hid one of them and brought the other to the abbot. Isaac said to him, 'Be careful when you go back to the beehive that you hid: it has been taken over by poisonous snakes. Be careful that they do not bite you.'

Da lì, arrivano ruoli memorabili: il Capitano Ultimo, il commissario Breda in La Piovra, e una serie di successi che hanno fatto storia, come La finestra di fronte, Baarìa, Scusa ma ti chiamo amore e Buongiorno, mamma!. Dal 2022 raccoglie una sfida titanica: prendere il testimone di Terence Hill in Don Matteo. Nei panni di Don Massimo, il nuovo parroco di Spoleto, porta freschezza e profondità a una delle serie più amate della TV italiana, conquistando anche i fan storici.

Charlemagne, The Father of Europe, died in the year 814 and left only one surviving son to take the helm of the Carolingian Empire, which spanned the lion's share of the European continent. But his heir, Louis the Pious, had three sons, who each got a parcel of the empire when he died. Then those kings had children of their own, dividing the kingdom up until factions and branches of Charlemagne's lineage occupied independent power centers from the border of modern Denmark all the way down to Italy south of Rome. Our story today involves several of those Carolingian kings, and two priests who would become popes. Bishop Formosus served the Vatican as a diplomat on numerous missions in Europe, developing close ties to the Frankish kings to the north of Rome, the sons of the sons of Charlemagne. When his winding road to the Papacy finally made him Pope Formosus, he found himself at odds - even militarily - with the southern wing of the family, the Dukes of Spoleto, the sons of the daughters of Charlemagne. After Formosa's death, the Dukes of Spoleto reasserted their power, installing a new pope, Stephen VI, who exacted the southern family's revenge on Formosus and their northern kin by exhuming Formosus's rotten corpse and holding an infamously gruesome public trial. Formosus was obviously convicted, but the episode condemned Stephen VI in the moment and for the ages. Listen ad-free at patreon.com/trashyroyalspodcast.

Puntata a cura di Jacopo Bulgarini d'Elci e Livio Pacella. In onda su Rai 1 dal 7 gennaio 2000, giunta (per ora) alla bellezza di 265 episodi, Don Matteo racconta di un prete che investiga misteri. Ma è essa stessa un mistero, che proviamo allegramente a sciogliere. Tutti, dal più al meno, la conoscono: ma qualcuno l'ha vista? E cosa vuole dirci, la buffa serie in cui il bonario sacerdote risolve casi laddove le forze dell'ordine falliscono? È una critica radicale delle istituzioni italiane? Uno sberleffo postmoderno alla stessa possibilità filosofica che un caso venga risolto? E soprattutto, saprà Raul Bova sostituire degnamente sotto la tonaca Terence Hill? “1 classico in 2” è uno dei format del podcast di Mondoserie: conversazioni a due voci su serie che hanno segnato l'immaginario.

No episódio de hoje, Paulo Chiodi recebe Max Yogoro, professor da FIA, e Léo Formigon para uma discussão aprofundada sobre economia comportamental e neurociência. Eles exploram como essas áreas influenciam a tomada de decisões e o design de produtos, abordando desde intervenções sutis como os nudges até o impacto da inteligência artificial na personalização de experiências. Exemplos práticos são discutidos, além de reflexões sobre ética no uso dessas técnicas. Um episódio repleto de insights sobre como decisões são moldadas e como podemos melhorar nossa abordagem. /// Nesse episódio abordamos: • A economia comportamental integra psicologia e design para entender melhor as decisões humanas. • Exemplos práticos, como o uso de uma "mosquinha" em mictórios, mostram a eficácia dos nudges. • A hiperpersonalização, impulsionada pela IA, pode levar a experiências de usuário altamente individualizadas. • A ética no uso de nudges é crucial para evitar manipulações prejudiciais. • Decisões de design devem ser simplificadas e focadas nos objetivos principais dos usuários. • Entender os viéses pode ajudar a criar produtos e serviços mais inclusivos e eficazes. • Empresas como Netflix e Amazon são exemplos de sucesso na aplicação de nudges. • A IA tem o potencial de revolucionar a personalização, mas traz desafios éticos. • Aprender sobre economia comportamental pode melhorar a tomada de decisão pessoal e profissional. • A prática do olhar crítico sobre influências pode ajudar a tomar decisões mais conscientes. /// Onde encontrar os convidados: Max Yogoro | Professor | Nudge, Influence, Behavioural Design @ FIA Business School https://www.linkedin.com/in/maxyogoro Curso de Economia comportamental: https://nice.fia.com.br/master-degree-economia-comportamental-neurociencias-e-tomada-de-decisao/ Leonardo Formigon | HR | Culture and Engagement | Employer Branding | L&D | Carreiras Digitais https://www.linkedin.com/in/leoformigon/ /// Capítulos 00:00 Introdução 01:24 Apresentação dos Convidados 01:58 Economia Comportamental 02:36 Livro "Nudge" e Impacto na Tomada de Decisões 03:04 Explicação da Economia Comportamental 03:35 Relevância Recente da Economia Comportamental 04:06 Exemplos Práticos de Comportamento Irracional 04:48 Influência Positiva nas Decisões 05:10 Introdução ao Conceito de Nudge 05:49 Exemplos de Nudges em Serviços 07:02 OConceito de "Empurrãozinho" 07:37 Discussão sobre Nudges Manipulativos 08:23 Exemplo Prático de Nudge 09:08 Impacto dos Nudges nas Experiências de Negócios 10:08 Ética na Aplicação de Nudges 11:09 Exemplo do Spoleto e Paradoxo da Escolha 12:05 Personalização de Produtos e Serviços 13:50 Desafios e Reflexões sobre Decisões e Design 15:25 Exemplos de Escolhas Complexas 17:04 Impacto das Decisões nos Negócios e Marcas 18:28 Mitos sobre Tomada de Decisão 19:19 Complexidade nas Decisões de Produto e Serviço 20:50 Viéses em Design de Produtos 21:51 Princípios Básicos na Tomada de Decisão 22:17 Clareza nos Objetivos de Design 24:11 Exemplos de Primeiros Princípios 25:22 Reflexão sobre Decisões Estratégicas 26:15 Futuro da Personalização com IA 27:11 Impacto da IA na Economia Comportamental 29:00 Reflexão sobre o Uso Ético da IA 30:33 Conclusão e Dicas Práticas /// Oferecimento Tera — Um novo futuro para sua carreira.

On March 7, 2024, the legendary African American soprano Margaret Tynes died at the age of 104. During the second season of Countermelody, I featured the singer, who at the time was a mere 101 years old, on one of my Black History Month episodes. She was a unique artist, fearlessly forging her own musical, dramatic, and vocal path, aided and abetted by a strong voice with a powerful top register. Though she made a number of significant appearances in her homeland earlier in her career (including a televised appearance in Duke Ellington's jazz suite, A Drum Is a Woman), her later successes were focused primarily in Europe, where she was particularly celebrated for her extraordinary Salome, with which she created a sensation in Spoleto in 1961, and her Lady Macbeth. Excerpts from all of these and more are featured on this episode, which also includes spirituals and Creole folk songs, as well as arias and duets from Aida, Carmen, and Porgy and Bess. Guest artists include LeVern Hutcherson, most remembered today for his appearances on stage and screen in Porgy, and George Shirley, the first African American tenor to sing at the Metropolitan Opera. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing. By clicking on the following link (https://linktr.ee/CountermelodyPodcast) you can find the dedicated Countermelody website which contains additional content including artist photos and episode setlists. The link will also take you to Countermelody's Patreon page, where you can pledge your monthly support at whatever level you can afford. Bonus episodes available exclusively to Patreon supporters are currently available and further bonus content including interviews and livestreams is planned for the upcoming season.

SPOLETO (PERUGIA)(ITALPRESS) - Spoleto è nel pieno della sessantasettesima edizione del Festival dei Due Mondi, che ha alzato il sipario venerdì 28 giugno e che chiuderà domenica 14 luglio. Grazie al prezioso sostegno di partner come Intesa Sanpaolo, Premium Supporter dell'iniziativa, in 17 giorni e in 20 sedi differenti il Festival presenta più di 60 spettacoli tra Opera, Musica, Danza e Teatro, Performance e installazioni artistiche, coinvolgendo 30 compagnie internazionali per un totale di oltre 600 artisti provenienti da 20 paesi. Spoleto, inoltre, fa parte della “Fascia olivata Assisi-Spoleto”, un paesaggio pedemontano appenninico di oltre 40 chilometri dove borghi, santuari, basiliche, opere d'arte e monumenti di ogni genere costituiscono un patrimonio unico ed irripetibile che coinvolge i sei comuni della provincia di Perugia: Assisi, Spello, Foligno, Trevi, Campello sul Clitunno e, appunto, Spoleto. Questo ambiente, così suggestivo, ricco di bellezza e di spiritualità, ha ispirato Francesco Saverio Nardi Regoli nella fondazione della start up “Pacomio", una società benefit costituita per l'ideazione e la produzione di contenuti multimediali per mezzo dei quali si intende raccontare e valorizzare il patrimonio storico artistico e culturale, con l'obiettivo di rigenerare quei luoghi abbandonati o in stato di degrado. Alle porte del Giubileo 2025 “Pellegrini di speranza”, e nascendo nella città del Festival dei Due Mondi, Pacomio si propone come un ponte tra arte ed impresa, collegando i cuori e le menti nella nuova economia di Papa Francesco.mgg/gsl

Soon a large monastery grew up there as others joined him in his life of prayer.   Once, two nearly naked men came begging clothing from Isaac. He told a monk to go to a hollow tree some distance away, and to bring back what he found there. The monk returned with some clothing, and gave it to the beggars. They were shamed to find that it was their own clothing, which they had hidden in the tree.   A man gave two beehives to the monastery. A monk hid one of them and brought the other to the abbot. Isaac said to him, 'Be careful when you go back to the beehive that you hid: it has been taken over by poisonous snakes. Be careful that they do not bite you.'

Adam Smulevich, Massimiliano Castellani"A futura memoria"Storie di sport, lezioni di vitaMinerva Edizioniwww.minervaedizioni.comViviamo in un tempo in cui l'odio mina costantemente il valore del ricordo e della verità storica. Invertire la tendenza è un'urgenza in ogni campo e per farlo è necessario ripartire dallo sport e dalle storie di alcuni suoi eroi, grandi e piccoli.I pugili ebrei di Roma, protagonisti non solo sul ring, che reagirono alla persecuzione nazifascista con dignità e coraggio. La ginnasta ungherese Ágnes Keleti, baluardo di libertà, la cui determinazione e il cui sorriso hanno sconfitto i totalitarismi del Novecento. La maratoneta ucraina Valentyna Veretska, profuga di guerra, che ha corso sotto le mura di Gerusalemme per lanciare al mondo il suo messaggio di speranza.La Memoria passa anche da una pista d'atletica, corre veloce su una bicicletta e, quando è forte e sospinta dalla Storia, taglia il traguardo per prima e poi sale su un podio.

Elga Profili, una donna di Spoleto, è stata perseguitata per sette mesi da un uomo che non si rassegnava al suo rifiuto.L'uomo, un alto dirigente della pubblica amministrazione, ha iniziato a perseguitare Elga con telefonate ossessive, messaggi e mail. Ha poi iniziato a minacciarla, dicendole che se non avesse accettato di stare con lui, le avrebbe fatto del male.Nonostante le denunce di Elga, l'uomo non è stato arrestato. Le è stato imposto un divieto di avvicinamento, ma lo ha violato ripetutamente. È stato anche sottoposto al braccialetto elettronico, ma questo non è stato sufficiente a fermarlo.In ottobre, l'uomo è stato arrestato, ma è stato rilasciato dal tribunale del riesame. La scorsa settimana, il pubblico ministero ha chiesto di nuovo gli arresti domiciliari per l'uomo, ma il gip si è limitato a disporre l'obbligo di presentazione alla polizia giudiziaria.Il caso di Elga è un esempio di come la legge italiana non sia sempre efficace nel proteggere le vittime di stalking.Giallo Criminale: https://www.radiocaffecriminale.it/programmi/giallo-criminale/

Nicolangelo D'Acunto"Sillabario medievale"Vita e Pensierowww.vitaepensiero.itIl Sillabario medievale affronta, attraverso l'analisi di undici parole chiave, alcune problematiche fra le più interessanti e innovative dell'odierno panorama medievistico italiano ed europeo, muovendosi con disinvoltura tra le fonti e il dibattito storiografico. L'autore tratta di alcuni importanti nodi storiografici che hanno animato e tutt'oggi animano il dibattito interno alla disciplina: il determinismo ambientale, la spazialità, il dissenso, il rapporto fra gerarchia e libertà, fra sacro e profano, il desiderio, il nesso fra responsabilità e individualità, la nozione di carisma, la teoria degli «ordines», i concetti di Riforma (con particolare riguardo all'XI secolo), Rinascimento e Rivoluzione. Ogni parola di questo Sillabario viene illustrata e discussa facendo riferimento al dibattito storiografico e all'applicazione nell'ambito della ricerca medievistica. Un libro utile per comprendere alcune nozioni fondamentali inerenti la cultura e la mentalità medievale; al contempo, viva espressione di una peculiare visione storiografica, che in dialogo con le scienze sociali approfondisce il quadro sociale e culturale del tempo, senza mai dimenticare l'aderenza al contesto storico.Nicolangelo D'Acunto (Albenga, 1966) ha studiato alla Scuola Normale di Pisa. Ordinario di Storia medievale all'Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore di Milano e Brescia, è direttore del Dipartimento di Studi medievali, umanistici e rinascimentali e del Centro per la Storia degli Insediamenti Monastici Europei (CESIME). Tra le sue pubblicazioni: Cum anulo et baculo. Vescovi dell'Italia medievale dal protagonismo politico alla complementarietà istituzionale (Spoleto 2019) e La lotta per le investiture.

Se ubica en el centro de la bota, cruzada por los Apeninos y regada por el Tíber. La vegetación crece lustrosa sobre las lomas, también es zona de viñedos y olivar... no extraña que la apoden "il cuore verde d'Italia". Abrazada por la Toscana, Lacio y Las Marcas descubrimos Umbría, una estratégica aunque poco conocida región cuya capital es Perugia. El profesor de italiano Francesco Marrone, que estudio en una de sus universidades, nos acompaña por las estrechas y serpenteantes calles de esta población medieval con vestigios etruscos. Paseamos por el Corso Vannucci y Piazza IV Novembre antes de adentrarnos por las misteriosas entrañas de la Rocca Paolina; sentimos los ecos de su festival veraniego de jazz y el aroma del gran encuentro chocolatero que toma la ciudad en otoño. Después salimos a buscar destinos cercanos como el lago Trasimeno y los pueblos de su área de influencia, como Castiglione del Lago o Città della Pieve. También ciudades tan conocidas como Asís –patria chica de San Francisco y origen de su orden religiosa–, Gubbio, Spoleto y Orvieto. Hacia el este, en el parque nacional de los montes Sibilinos, encontramos valles y llanuras floridas, así como hermosos pueblos en reconstrucción tras el terremoto de 2016. Ese terrible seísmo afectó entre otros a Norcia, lugar de origen de San Benito, fundador de la orden benedictina. A lo largo del recorrido escuchamos las voces de la guía oficial de turismo Daniela Paci, el financiero Stefano Bonaca, la profesora Natalia Mancuso y los estudiantes de Arquitectura Samuele Raspadori y Pietro Nataletti.

This is not the famed Isaac of Syria (commemorated Jan 28) who wrote the Ascetical Homilies, but a monk who settled in Spoleto and was famed for his holy, solitary life, his miracles, and his discernment. The people of Spoleto sought to honor him with money and other gifts, but he refused everything and withdrew to a cell in the forest. Soon a large monastery grew up there as others joined him in his life of prayer.   Once, two nearly naked men came begging clothing from Isaac. He told a monk to go to a hollow tree some distance away, and to bring back what he found there. The monk returned with some clothing, and gave it to the beggars. They were shamed to find that it was their own clothing, which they had hidden in the tree.   A man gave two beehives to the monastery. A monk hid one of them and brought the other to the abbot. Isaac said to him, 'Be careful when you go back to the beehive that you hid: it has been taken over by poisonous snakes. Be careful that they do not bite you.'

Tucked into the middle of the Italian peninsula is the verdant, hilly land of Umbria. This small province is overshadowed by its neighbor, Tuscany, for many things, but Umbria has history, culture, and wine all its own. In this show, we explore the long history of Umbrian wine, what makes the province unique in its grapes and wine styles, and why Umbrian wine is too often unfairly forgotten in the pantheon of great wines of Italy. We review the three major wine regions of Umbria – Orvieto, Torgiano, and Montefalco – and give many reasons to give these wines a try.  Photo: Umbrian countryside. Getty Images  Here are the show notes: As of January 2023, Umbria has just 2 DOCGs, 13 DOCs, and 6 IGPs, 48% is DOP wine, 42% IGP, 10% table wine. 12,400 ha (30,600 acres) is 7.2 million cases of wine The main grapes of the region are: Sangiovese, Trebbiano Toscano, Grechetto, Sagrantino   Umbria has had winemaking for more than 3000 years   Climate: Landlocked Umbria has no sea breeze, although its lakes do help moderate the temperatures. The climate varies, but is mostly Mediterranean with cold, rainy winters and dry summers with abundant sunshine to ripen grapes   Photo: Chiesa in Assisi. Getty Images  Land Umbria is 29% Mtns, 71% hills, no plains. Most vineyards are on terraces cut into hillsides. The vineyards have good diurnals, which maintains acidity.

This wine is like limes, it can range from light to heavy and high in alcohol and can be barrel aged, or made into orange wine – no set identity Reds: Sangiovese and Sagrantino with Colorino, Mammolo, Vernaccia Nera International grapes: Cab, Merlot, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc for, Umbria Indicazione Geografica Tipica (IGT)   Photo: Sagrantino. Getty Images  Orvieto Producing wine since the Middle Ages when it was a famed sweet wine, today this wine is more of a dry white. Despite a long history, Orvieto was the victim of overproduction in the 1960s and its reputation suffered There are many styles and it is Umbria's biggest appellation – 10%+ of all Umbrian wine production Known for whites made of mostly Trebbiano and Grechetto, DOC Orvieto and Orvieto Classico.

A fight for survival is underway in Somalia as the country faces its worst drought in 40 years. Andrew Harding travelled to the southwestern city of Baidoa - one of the worst-affected areas in the country, where people are now flooding to in hope of finding humanitarian assistance. The story of two teenage sisters who were raped and hanged in their village in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh has shaken communities there. The case has also been complicated by spurious suggestions by local politicians that there was a religious motivation behind the killings. Geeta Pandy met the family of the victims. Henry Wilkins is in Burkina Faso, where two coups have now taken place this year. The West African country lacks strong democratic institutions and the military have long been dominant. It's also found itself increasingly embroiled in a new cold war rivalry between France and Russia. Set in the hills north of Spoleto in the southern Appenines is the small Italian town of Montefalco. The local grape, the Sagrantino, is known to be one of the tougher varieties to make into wine. Ellie House met one vineyard owner in the region and learnt how the production process is still one based on trial – and a few errors. Saudi Arabia's been burnishing its credentials as host for the world's biggest sporting events this year, with speculation its even lining itself up for an Olympic bid. Steve Bunce considers whether the presence of the world's best athletes can really distract critical eyes, as the kingdom's rulers might hope.

Two more completely intoxicating medieval villages in southern Umbria... Montefalco and Spoleto. The citizens and local governments are so proud of their history and heritage, that they make the utmost effort to keep their villages as well preserved, and intact as possible. And we are the lucky recipients of their efforts, since we can walk through these beautiful towns and feel as though we are in the 12th century, yet at the same time, enjoy the modern conveniences of ice cubes in your Aperol Spritz at your late lunch al fresco, in the piazza.... oh la dolce vita!
