Celjani so proti igralcem Aluminija znova ujeli zmagovalni korak in še povečali svojo prednost na vrhu lestvice. V četrtek v konferenčni ligi gostijo nogometaše Legie, zmaga prinaša preboj v izločilne boje, a Celje želi več, in sicer neposredni preboj v osmino finala. Najbližji zasledovalec v domačem prvenstvu je zdaj Maribor, ki je v Stožicah premagal Bravo. Trener Feđa Dudić je bil znova presenečen nad skromnim obiskom, po nizu ligaških zmag pa se je spraševal, kakšno je bilo kadrovanje v klubu glede na neuravnoteženo igralsko zasedbo. Tekma Bravo : Maribor, torej dvoboj drugega in tretjega, je bila marsikje označena kot derbi kroga, štirje valovski nogometni reporterji Boštjan Janežič, Marko Cirman, Jože Pepevnik in voditelj Luka Petrič pa debatirajo, kdaj je derbi derbi. So to samo tekme lokalnih rivalov? Ali tekme najboljših ekip v prvenstvu? Več tudi o evropskih ligah. Jaka Bijol je začel igrati za Leeds, na vrhu italijanske lige pa so štiri ekipe v dveh točkah.

Story Transcript:It: Dall'altra parte della palestra del Liceo di Venezia, Giuseppe guardava nervosamente i tavoli pieni di dolci, coperti di biscotti, torte e pasticcini di ogni tipo.En: On the other side of the gym at the Liceo di Venezia, Giuseppe nervously watched the tables full of sweets, covered with cookies, cakes, and pastries of every kind.It: Le foglie autunnali decoravano ogni angolo, donando un tocco stagionale all'ambiente.En: Autumn leaves decorated every corner, giving a seasonal touch to the environment.It: L'aria profumava di cannella e vaniglia, fragrante e accogliente.En: The air smelled of cinnamon and vanilla, fragrant and welcoming.It: La folla era animata, e il chiacchiericcio si mescolava ai rumori dei dolciumi che venivano degustati.En: The crowd was lively, and the chatter mingled with the sounds of sweets being tasted.It: Era il giorno del mercatino di beneficenza della scuola, e Giuseppe era determinato a fare colpo con i suoi biscotti.En: It was the school's charity bazaar day, and Giuseppe was determined to make an impression with his cookies.It: Non solo per raccogliere fondi per la causa, ma perché sapeva che Elena, la ragazza che gli piaceva, sarebbe stata lì.En: Not only to raise funds for the cause, but because he knew that Elena, the girl he liked, would be there.It: Osservava Marco, il suo amico, che faceva segno di andare avanti, incoraggiandolo con un sorriso.En: He watched Marco, his friend, who gestured for him to go ahead, encouraging him with a smile.It: "Va bene," pensò Giuseppe ad alta voce, stringendo i denti per cercare coraggio.En: "Alright," Giuseppe thought out loud, clenching his teeth to find courage.It: Decise di preparare i biscotti seguendo la ricetta segreta della nonna, semplice ma perfetta.En: He decided to prepare the cookies following his grandmother's secret recipe, simple but perfect.It: Tuttavia, la sua mente era affollata di dubbi.En: However, his mind was crowded with doubts.It: "E se i miei biscotti non fossero abbastanza?En: "What if my cookies aren't good enough?It: E se nessuno li volesse?"En: What if no one wants them?"It: Dietro al suo tavolo, Giuseppe sistemava con cura i biscotti appena sfornati su un vassoio elegante che sua madre gli aveva prestato.En: Behind his table, Giuseppe carefully arranged the freshly baked cookies on an elegant tray that his mother had lent him.It: Il cucinare lo calmava sempre, ma oggi la sua tranquillità era difficile da trovare.En: Cooking always calmed him, but today his tranquility was difficult to find.It: Ogni volta che una persona comprava, lui sussultava di speranza.En: Every time someone bought one, he jolted with hope.It: Ma il momento più importante fu quando vide Elena avvicinarsi.En: But the most important moment was when he saw Elena approaching.It: Elena si diresse sorridendo verso il tavolo di Giuseppe.En: Elena walked smilingly towards Giuseppe's table.It: Indossava un maglione leggero che richiamava i colori dell'autunno.En: She was wearing a light sweater that echoed the colors of autumn.It: Giuseppe sentiva il cuore che gli batteva forte.En: Giuseppe felt his heart pounding.It: Elena prese un biscotto e lo addentò.En: Elena took a cookie and bit into it.It: "È delizioso!"En: "It's delicious!"It: esclamò radiosa.En: she exclaimed, beaming.It: "Puoi darmi la ricetta?"En: "Can I have the recipe?"It: Giuseppe respirò per la prima volta da qualche minuto e il suo volto s'illuminò di soddisfazione.En: Giuseppe breathed for the first time in a few minutes, and his face lit up with satisfaction.It: "Sì, certo," rispose, nascondendo un sorriso felice.En: "Yes, of course," he replied, hiding a happy smile.It: Finalmente si sentiva parte di qualcosa.En: He finally felt part of something.It: Gli altri studenti, incuriositi, iniziarono a comprare i suoi biscotti, e presto il vassoio si svuotò.En: The other students, curious, started buying his cookies, and soon the tray was empty.It: Mentre la giornata volgeva al termine, con il sole che calava lentamente, Giuseppe si sentiva rinnovato.En: As the day came to a close, with the sun slowly setting, Giuseppe felt renewed.It: Elena si avvicinò di nuovo, questa volta per proporre qualcosa di inaspettato: "Sto pensando di iniziare un club di cucina.En: Elena came up again, this time to suggest something unexpected: "I'm thinking of starting a cooking club.It: Ti andrebbe di unirti?En: Would you like to join?It: Mi piacerebbe lavorare con qualcuno che ha il tuo talento."En: I'd love to work with someone who has your talent."It: L'offerta di Elena era un'opportunità che Giuseppe non poteva rifiutare.En: Elena's offer was an opportunity Giuseppe couldn't refuse.It: Sorrise, annuendo con entusiasmo.En: He smiled, nodding with enthusiasm.It: "Sarebbe meraviglioso," rispose con ritrovato coraggio.En: "That would be wonderful," he responded with newfound courage.It: Quella sera, mentre il cielo autunnale virava al crepuscolo, Giuseppe si rese conto che non doveva più temere di non essere abbastanza.En: That evening, as the autumn sky turned to twilight, Giuseppe realized he no longer needed to fear not being enough.It: Aveva compreso che essere se stesso e fidarsi delle sue abilità lo aveva portato lontano.En: He understood that being himself and trusting his abilities had taken him far.It: E non vedeva l'ora di iniziare il suo nuovo percorso, al fianco di Elena, nel mondo della cucina e oltre.En: And he couldn't wait to start his new journey, alongside Elena, in the world of cooking and beyond.

De mest inflytelserika personliga skildringarna av krigets villkor på västfronten under första världskriget är Ernst Jüngers Stålstormen och Erich Maria Remarques På västfronten intet nytt. Jüngers bok är en personliga verklig skildring av en ung officers upplevelser. Remarques bok är en skönlitterär berättelse med ett budskap. Båda fick stor betydelse under mellankrigstiden och även efter andra världskriget. Frågan är vad dessa båda böcker kan lära oss om första världskriget i allmänhet och soldaternas upplevelser i synnerhet?Inför detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden har Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved läst två militärhistoriska klassiker. Jüngers bok är en av de viktigaste personliga skildringarna av kriget på västfronten. Realistisk, brutal och närvarande. Boken kom under 30-talet att hyllas av den nazistiska regimen och Jünger blev en populär person på ett sätt som vi idag kan uppfatta som tveksamt. Hans övriga författarskap mot demokrati och liberalism har färgat bilden av honom som person. Trots detta är Stålstormen ett viktigt tidsdokument. Jünger var dessutom den sist levande person som fått den högsta tyska krigsutmärkelsen Pour le merite.Remarques bok är en litterär storsäljare. I nazitysklands förbjöds den och brändes på bokbål. Den var alltför öppet krigsnegativ och pacifistisk för att kunna tolereras av nazisterna. För eftervärlden är På västfronten intet nytt den sannolikt mest inflytelserika boken om västfronten och första världskriget. Den har präglat flera generationers förhållningssätt till det tillsynes meningslösa dödandet på västfronten 1914-18.Bild: Tyska stormtrupper (Stoßtruppen) lämnar sina skyttegravar för anfall under första världskriget. Dessa elitförband utvecklades för snabba och överraskande attacker vid västfronten. Foto: Okänd, Bundesarchiv, CC BY-SA 3.0, via Wikimedia Commons.

L'attore, regista e insegnante cagliaritano racconta il suo percorso artistico, dalla formazione itinerante ai progetti futuri. Tra passione, sperimentazione e amore per il teatro come luogo d'incontro e crescita. Per Fabrizio Congia, il teatro è più di una professione. È una scelta di vita, fatta di incontri, studio e continua ricerca. La sua formazione è nata attraverso workshop in tutta Italia, un percorso itinerante che ha lasciato un segno profondo nel suo modo di lavorare. “Viaggiare e imparare in contesti diversi mi ha cambiato”, spiega Congia. “Ogni esperienza è una lezione. Inoltre, ogni persona che incontri sul palco o dietro le quinte ti aiuta a crescere”. Nel corso degli anni, ha portato i suoi spettacoli fuori dalla Sardegna, arrivando anche all'estero. “In Spagna ho scoperto un pubblico diretto, sincero. Quell'esperienza mi ha fatto capire che il teatro è davvero universale. Infatti, le emozioni non hanno lingua”. Congia si divide tra due ruoli: attore e regista. Due mondi diversi ma complementari. “Recitare significa essere nel momento, sentire il ritmo del pubblico. Dirigere, invece, vuol dire creare una visione. Tuttavia, entrambe le esperienze mi completano. Non potrei scegliere una sola parte di me”. Oggi, oltre a calcare le scene, è anche insegnante di recitazione a Talenti Stravaganti. “Cerco di trasmettere ai miei allievi l'amore per la verità del gesto e della parola. Allo stesso tempo, loro mi restituiscono entusiasmo e freschezza. È uno scambio continuo, ed è questo che rende viva la scuola”. Talenti Stravaganti unisce teatro comico, tragedia, musical e commedia sarda. “Mi sento a casa nella commedia”, racconta Congia. “È un linguaggio diretto e sincero. Ti permette di far ridere e pensare allo stesso tempo. Così il pubblico si riconosce e riflette”. Guardando alla scena teatrale cagliaritana, Congia vede nuove energie. “Ci sono giovani che credono nel teatro e vogliono restare in Sardegna. Questo mi dà speranza. Quindi, penso che il futuro sia nelle mani di chi osa”. Infine, anticipa i suoi prossimi progetti. “Sto lavorando a una nuova regia e a un laboratorio dove parola, musica e movimento dialogano tra loro. Perché il teatro, in fondo, è un viaggio. E io non ho alcuna intenzione di fermarmi”.

In die Zeit des Dreißigjährigen Krieges versetzt uns der Reiseschriftsteller Gustav Adolf von Heeringen (1800-1851). Nach einer wortgewaltigen Einleitung lässt er uns die frühe Geschichte Coburgs nachvollziehen - Spiegelfläche weltgeschichtlicher Stoßwellen, aber auch Nährbodenkunsthistorisch relevanter Bauvorhaben, inmitten des oberfränkischen Bauern- und Burgenlandes.
V podobenství o nepoctivém správci Ježíš popisuje a ilustruje určité principy, které jsou pro něj důležité. Dnes se přeneseme tak trochu do roviny investic. Ježíš totiž v odobenstvípředkládá několik přístupů, jak nakládat s tím, co nám bylo svěřeno - ať už se jedná o naši energii, čas či peníze. V našem životě máme trochu času a trochu příležitostí. Ježíš nás povzbuzuje, abychom naše zdroje brali jako nástroj, zdroje jsou naší vizitkou, ale mohou pro nás být i zkouškou. Lukáš 16:1-8 Ježíš řekl učedníkům: „Byl jeden bohatý člověk, který zaměstnával správce. Ten byl před ním obviněn, že mrhá jeho majetkem. Zavolal ho tedy a řekl mu: ‚Co to o tobě slyším? Slož účty ze svého počínání, neboť budeš propuštěn.‘Správce si řekl: ‚Co budu dělat, až mě můj pán propustí? Kopat nemohu, žebrat se stydím… Už vím, co udělám, aby mě lidé přijali do svých domů, až budu propuštěn!‘Jednoho po druhém si pak zavolal všechny dlužníky svého pána. Prvního se zeptal: ‚Kolik dlužíš mému pánu?‘ ‚Sto sudů oleje,‘ odpověděl dlužník. Řekl mu: ‚Zde je tvůj úpis – rychle si sedni a napiš padesát.‘ Dalšího se zeptal: ‚A kolik dlužíš ty?‘ ‚Sto měr pšenice,‘ odpověděl. Řekl mu: ‚Zde je tvůj úpis – napiš osmdesát.‘A jeho pán ocenil, že si ten nepoctivý správce počínal chytře! Synové světa totiž bývají ve svých věcech chytřejší než synové světla.

Dans cet épisode d'OVNIs, Matthieu Stefani reçoit Jules Veyrat, co-fondateur de Stoïk, l'assureur-cyber dédié aux PME. Il explique un modèle qui combine assurance et outils de cybersécurité maison, distribués via des courtiers, pour couvrir l'assistance 24/7, les pertes d'exploitation (y compris rançon au cas par cas), la responsabilité envers les tiers et la cyber-fraude—avec un objectif clair : remettre l'entreprise en route le plus vite possible.Veyrat partage des retours de terrain (ransomwares, phishing dopé à l'IA, négociations pour gagner du temps) et la traction de Stoïk : ~10 000 assurés, forte rétention et expansion en Europe (France, DACH, Espagne, Belgique, Luxembourg), avant d'étendre la gamme produits (surveillance des postes et des boîtes mail, tests de pénétration automatisés). Cap affiché : dominer le segment PME en Europe continentale et atteindre la rentabilité à moyen terme.[00:00:00] Introduction – Cyber, armée et rencontre avec Jules Veyrat[00:02:00] Naissance de Stoïk : protéger les PME contre les cyberattaques[00:05:00] L'assurance cyber : un modèle qui aligne les intérêts[00:09:00] Les PME, maillon faible du risque numérique[00:12:00] Les 4 piliers de la couverture cyber : assistance, pertes, responsabilité, fraude[00:17:00] Rançons et négociations : comment Stoïk gère les crises[00:22:00] L'impact de l'intelligence artificielle sur les attaques[00:28:00] Les chiffres : 10 000 assurés, 50 M€ levés, 13 M€ de revenus[00:33:00] Expansion européenne : France, Allemagne, Espagne, Belgique, Luxembourg[00:38:00] Le partenariat inattendu avec Marc-André ter Stegen[00:42:00] L'avenir de Stoïk : nouvelles offres, IA et cybersécurité défensive[00:46:00] Philosophie entrepreneuriale et croissance maîtrisée[00:52:00] Vie perso, sport et équilibre de l'entrepreneur[00:55:00] Conclusion – « Le risque, c'est aussi d'arrêter d'avancer »Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Nach der Folge zum Individualismus geht's diesmal um dessen Gegenpol: den Kollektivismus. Manuel und Stephan fragen, was wir verlieren, wenn wir den Glauben zur Privatsache machen – und was geschieht, wenn aus dem «Ich glaube» wieder ein «Wir glauben» wird. Im «Hallelujah der Woche» schwärmt Stephan aber zuerst von seinen Sommerferien in Italien – und davon, wie gut es sich trotzdem anfühlt, wieder zu Hause zu sein. Manuel steuert ein «Stossgebet» bei, das wohl viele Eltern verstehen: Seit Wochen geht in seiner Familie ein Virus reihum, und er wäre froh, wenn das endlich mal weiterzieht. Im «Thema der Woche» knüpfen die beiden an die letzte Episode über den Individualismus an – diesmal geht's um dessen Gegenstück: den Kollektivismus. Die Bibel entstand in Kulturen, in denen Gemeinschaft, Familie und Zusammenhalt selbstverständlich im Zentrum standen. Doch moderne Leser:innen machen aus den «wir»-Botschaften oft «ich»-Geschichten – und verlieren dabei Wesentliches aus dem Blick. Manuel und Stephan zeigen, wie tief dieser Perspektivwechsel sitzt: Das «Vaterunser» etwa ist kein persönliches Stoßgebet, sondern das Gebet einer Gemeinschaft. Die Geschichte von Josef ist keine Heldensaga eines Aufsteigers, sondern eine Erzählung über Versöhnung und Familienheilung. Und wenn Jesus sagt: «Ihr seid das Licht der Welt» oder Paulus schreibt: «Ihr seid der Tempel des lebendigen Gottes», dann richtet sich das nicht an spirituelle Einzelkämpfer, sondern an eine Gemeinschaft von Glaubenden. Im Gespräch streifen die beiden den alten Gedanken des «vierfachen Schriftsinns», diskutieren die Chancen der historisch-kritischen Exegese – und fragen, ob man den Glauben überhaupt richtig verstehen kann, solange man ihn allein denkt.

Sinočnji podpis deklaracije o miru v Gazi je minil v znamenju velikih besed. Z izmenjavo izraelskih talcev in palestinskih zapornikov je bila obenem izpolnjena peta od skupno 20-ih točk mirovnega načrta, ki pa ne predvideva, kakšna bo politična prihodnost uničene enkalve. Komentarjem o morebitni rešitvi dveh držav se izogiba tudi ameriški predsednik Trump, ki dodaja, da je za zdaj pomembna predvsem obnova Gaze. Druge teme: - Varnostni izzivi tudi pred zvezo Nato. V Ljubljani poudarjen pomen višanja obrambnih izdatkov in nadaljnje pomoči Ukrajini. - Predlog zakona glede obvezne božičnice naj bi bil pripravljen. Bo prepričal socialne partnerje? - Neučinkovitost slovenskih nogometašev v napadu premalo za zmago nad Švico v Stožicah.
Slovenska nogometna reprezentanca je v kvalifikacijah za svetovno prvenstvo včeraj v Stožicah gostila Švico, vodilno ekipo skupine. Po štirih odigranih krogih so nekatere reprezentance že potrdile nastop na prvenstvu, ki ga bodo prihodnje leto gostile ZDA, Kanada in Mehika, Slovenija pa si bo dodatne kvalifikacije poskušala zagotoviti prihodnji mesec, ko jo čakata še tekmi proti Švedski in Kosovu. Na evropskem ekipnem prvenstvu v namiznem tenisu na Hrvaškem pa danes čaka nastop obe slovenski reprezentanci. Ženska se bo pomerila s Srbijo, moško čaka dvoboj proti Italiji.

Aan de Quest werd gevraagd hoe je meer discipline kunt krijgen. Wetenschappelijk antwoord hierop zat blijkbaar niet zozeer in doen waar je geen zin in hebt, maar voorkomen dat je voor de verkeerde dingen valt.Jesse en Joost gingen in gesprek over Discipline (één van de kernwaarden van het Stoïcisme), en hoe ze denken het toe te passen en te vergroten.

Stoßstangen für Automobile waren bis Ende der 1920er Jahre ein Zubehör, das extra bestellt werden musst. Und es gab auch nur welche für vorne. Große Schutzwirkung hatten die Dinger nicht. Die Stoßfänger der Gegenwart dagegen sollen sogar Verletzungen bei Fußgängern oder Radfahrern minimieren können.

In mehr als 15 Jahren Kampf lehrte die Berliner Mietenbewegung Politik und Immobilienkapital das Fürchten. Ralf Hoffrogge, Historiker und Mietenaktivist, zeigt in "Das laute Berlin" wie sich aus kleinsten Anfängen eine soziale Bewegung entwickelte, die Mehrheiten für die Vergesellschaftung der Wohnkonzerne gewann und Linken weltweit eine offensive Stoßrichtung aufzeigte. Was haben die neue Mietenbewegung und die Vergesellschaftungsinitiative "Deutsche Wohnen & Co enteignen" bisher erreichen können? Und wie kann trotz Blockade des Berliner Senats doch noch der große Wurf der Enteignung gelingen? Im Dissens Podcast sprechen wir über Geschichte und Zukunft der Bewegung, Erfolge und blinden Flecken sowie Möglichkeiten eines demokratischen Aufbruchs mitten im Rechtsruck.

Poslanci NSi in SDS so v državni zbor vložili interpelacijo zoper ministra za solidarno prihodnost Simona Maljevca. Med razlogi za razrešitev ministra so navedli nepregledno porabo in razpolaganje z obveznim prispevkom za dolgotrajno oskrbo ter zavajanje javnosti glede storitev dolgotrajne oskrbe in stanovanjske politike. Drugi poudarki oddaje: - Država ob širjenju bolezni modrikastega jezika razmišlja tudi o sofinanciranju stroškov zdravljenja in o nadomestilu škode rejcem. - Bruselj: Države, ki so se zavezale zagotavljanju varnostnih zagotovil povojni Ukrajini, bodo to storile na različne načine, nekatere bodo tja poslale vojake, druge pa bodo pomagale pri okrepitvi ukrajinske vojske. - Slovenski nogometaši drevi v Stožicah s Švedi na kvalifikacijski tekmi za svetovno prvenstvo.
Septembre arrive avec ses promesses de renouveau et ses résolutions de rentrée. Comme moi, vous avez peut-être passé l'été à vous poser des questions métaphysiques et en particulier, parce que pendant l'été on remet les choses en perspectives : c'est quoi une bonne vie ?J'espère que vous avez passé un bel été rempli de soleil, de repos, de rire et de discussions.En ce qui me concerne, j'ai passé la plupart de mon été à travailler…plutôt comique pour une personne qui prône le ralentissement (quoi ? comment ? « contradiction »…oh si peu…).J'ai ralenti certes mais je ne me suis pas arrêté.Vous comprenez que pour moi particulièrement la question reste : c'est quoi, au fond, une bonne vie ?Car voici LE paradoxe de notre époque : nous n'avons jamais eu autant d'outils pour réfléchir au bonheur, autant de livres de développement personnel, autant de podcasts sur l'épanouissement... et pourtant, nous n'avons jamais semblé aussi perdus sur ce qui constitue réellement une vie bien vécue.Commençons par regarder en face ce que notre société considère comme une vie réussie.La recette est simple et universellement acceptée : accumule de l'argent, du pouvoir et de la notoriété.Marie-toi. Fait des enfants. Coche les cases dans le bon ordre. Poste les photos au bon moment sur Instagram. Souris sur LinkedIn quand tu annonces ta promotion et ne parle pas des renoncements liés. Optimise ta vie comme on optimise un algorithme.Bien sûr chacun d'entre vous se dira dans son for intérieur : « non mais je sais que ce n'est pas ça hein…, je ne suis pas stupide » mais essayez d'être sincère avec vous-même 2 minutes quand même et vous verrez que quand vous pensez à Brad Pitt ou Steve Jobs, vous pensez « succès ».Peu importe que le 1er ait été un grand alcoolique et l'autre un monstre humain.Pour écrire cette newsletter, je me suis beaucoup appuyé sur Arthur Brooks, un professeur à Harvard et spécialiste du bonheur.Il identifie deux grandes catégories de chercheurs de bonheur contemporains qu'il appelle - par commodité mais de façon trompeuse (on va y revenir) - les "Épicuriens" et les "Stoïciens" modernes.Les premiers recherchent instinctivement le bonheur dans le plaisir immédiat et la jouissance - quand ça va mal, ils augmentent leur niveau de plaisir (shopping thérapie, vacances de luxe, expériences toujours plus intenses…)C'est ce que l'on fait quand on favorise son « bien vivre » à son « bien être » par exemple en vivant une vie à 4 000 km heure sans même avoir le temps de voir sa vie défiler sous ses yeux.Les seconds se concentrent sur le sens et le but - face à l'adversité, ils cherchent la signification et la raison d'être. Développement personnel, quête spirituelle, engagement militant.Chacun pense être libre mais la réalité pour la majorité d'entre-nous, c'est que nous sommes fortement conditionnés par nos peurs, notre éducation, notre contexte religieux, nos traumas transgénérationnels….je vous renvoie vers la newsletter sur le désir.Ce que Brooks a découvert dans ses recherches, c'est qu'une vie épanouie nécessite un mélange judicieux des deux approches : le plaisir ET le sens. Mais ce mélange, les vrais philosophes antiques l'avaient déjà théorisé il y a plus de 2 000 ans - et de façon bien plus sophistiquée que nos tentatives modernes.Je crois que dans cette période tumultueuse, c'est quand même pas mal de revenir à la philosophie.

In questo articolo affrontiamo un argomento che fa tremare le ginocchia anche agli studenti più coraggiosi: quelle coppie di parole italiane che sembrano gemelli identici ma che in realtà hanno significati e usi molto diversi! Attenzione a Queste Parole Problematiche 1. GIÀ vs ANCORA: La Battaglia del Tempo Iniziamo con una coppia che crea più confusione di un GPS che ha perso il segnale! GIÀ = Azione Completata nel Passato Significato: indica che un'azione è stata completata prima del momento attuale Esempi pratici: "Ho già mangiato" (l'azione del mangiare è finita) "Sei già qui?" (sei arrivato prima di quanto pensassi) "È già finito il film?" (il film è terminato) ANCORA = Continuità o Aspettativa Significato: indica che un'azione continua o non è ancora avvenuta Esempi pratici: "Sto ancora mangiando" (continuo a mangiare) "Non è ancora arrivato" (aspetto che arrivi) "Vuoi ancora del caffè?" (un'altra tazza di caffè) Trucco della nonna: GIÀ = l'azione è finita! ANCORA = l'azione continua o deve ancora succedere! 2. ORMAI vs ORA: Il Presente e la Rassegnazione Questa coppia è subdola come un gatto che finge di dormire! ORMAI = Rassegnazione e Inevitabilità Significato: indica che qualcosa è inevitabile o che non si può più cambiare Tonalità emotiva: spesso con sfumatura di rassegnazione Esempi con contesto: "Ormai è troppo tardi" (non possiamo più cambiare la situazione) "Ormai sei grande" (il tempo è passato, sei cresciuto) "Ormai lo sanno tutti" (la notizia si è diffusa, non si può più nascondere) ORA = Momento Presente Immediato Significato: indica il momento attuale, senza altre sfumature emotive Tonalità: neutro, semplice indicazione temporale Esempi chiari: "Ora devo andare" (in questo momento devo partire) "Che ora è?" (che orario segna l'orologio?) "Ora capisco!" (in questo momento ho compreso) Segreto per ricordare: ORMAI ha sempre una sfumatura di "non si può più tornare indietro", mentre ORA è neutro, indica solo il presente. 3. PRESTO vs PRONTO: La Velocità e la Preparazione Attenzione: questa coppia può creare malintesi epici, soprattutto se la tua prima lingua è lo spagnolo. PRESTO = Tempo e Velocità Significato: indica velocità di azione o un momento futuro vicino Si usa per: tempo, velocità, orari Esempi dettagliati: "Arrivo presto" (arrivo in poco tempo / arrivo la mattina presto) "Corri più presto!" (aumenta la velocità) "A presto!" (ci vediamo tra poco tempo) "È ancora presto" (l'orario è mattutino) PRONTO = Stato di Preparazione Significato: indica che qualcosa o qualcuno è preparato, completato Si usa per: preparazione, disponibilità Esempi con spiegazione: "Sono pronto per partire" (ho finito di prepararmi) "La cena è pronta" (la cena è stata preparata) "Pronto?" (risposta al telefono - "sono qui ad ascoltare") "Pronto soccorso" (servizio sempre preparato per l'emergenza) Approfondimento culturale: "Pronto" al telefono è una particolarità italiana!

especially those who, albeit with noble intentions, could risk the safety of the extremely rare manuscripts.It: "Giulia," disse Marco, con un accenno di severità nella voce, "Non tutti possono accedere a questi volumi preziosi."En: "Giulia," Marco said, with a hint of severity in his voice, "Not everyone can access these precious volumes."It: Giulia sospirò.En: Giulia sighed.It: Sapeva che Marco era un ostacolo, ma la passione la spingeva avanti.En: She knew that Marco was an obstacle, but her passion pushed her forward.It: Decise di essere onesta.En: She decided to be honest.It:

for study but for a family matter.It: Può darmi fiducia?"En: Can you trust me?"It: Marco esitò, ma vi era un'onestà in Giulia che non poté ignorare.En: Marco hesitated, but there was an honesty in Giulia that he couldn't ignore.It: "Va bene," concordò infine.En: "Alright," he finally agreed.It: "Ma devo accompagnarti durante la ricerca."En: "But I must accompany you during the search."It: Insieme scandagliarono gli scaffali, il tempo sembrava dilatarsi tra le pagine ingiallite e il profumo della storia.En: Together they scoured the shelves, time seemed to stretch among the yellowed pages and the scent of history.It: Dopo ore di ricerca pareva non esserci traccia finché un dettaglio colpì Giulia.En: After hours of searching, there seemed to be no trace until a detail caught Giulia's eye.It: Un bordo leggermente sollevato di uno degli scaffali nascosti in penombra.En: A slightly lifted edge of one of the shelves hidden in the shadows.It: Curiosa, allungò la mano e scoprì un vano segreto.En: Curious, she reached out and discovered a secret compartment.It: Dentro, il manoscritto scomparso giaceva silente, testimone di chissà quali vicissitudini passate.En: Inside, the missing manuscript lay silent, a witness to who knows what past vicissitudes.It: Con stupore e reverenza, lo prese tra le mani e lo mostrò a Marco.En: In awe and reverence, she took it in her hands and showed it to Marco.It: Questo momento cambiò tutto.En: This moment changed everything.It: Marco, vedendo la gioia nei suoi occhi, comprese il vero significato di custodire la cultura: non solo salvaguardare, ma anche condividerla.En: Marco, seeing the joy in her eyes, understood the true meaning of guarding culture: not only safeguarding, but also sharing it.It: Giulia, da parte sua, realizzò l'importanza della collaborazione e il rispetto per l'eredità culturale.En: Giulia, for her part, realized the importance of collaboration and the respect for cultural heritage.It: Insieme, decisero di ricollocare il manoscritto al suo posto.En: Together, they decided to return the manuscript to its place.It: Marco, con un nuovo rispetto per Giulia, l'aiutò a inserirlo tra gli altri tesori d'inchiostro.En: Marco, with a newfound respect for Giulia, helped her to insert it among the other treasures of ink.It: La biblioteca, ancora una volta, era completa.En: The library, once again, was complete.It: Quel giorno, nonostante le iniziali tensioni, Giulia e Marco impararono una lezione preziosa sull'importanza della fiducia reciproca.En: That day, despite the initial tensions, Giulia and Marco learned a valuable lesson about the importance of mutual trust.It: Il riflesso dei vetri colorati sembrava sorridere su di loro, portatori di una nuova amicizia che forse, proprio come i tesori della biblioteca, avrebbe resistito al tempo.En: The reflection of the colored glass seemed to smile upon them, bearers of a new friendship that perhaps, just like the library's treasures, would withstand the test of time.

From time to time over the nearly 50 years since the establishment of the Atlanta Soto Zen Center, a significant number of its members and its affiliates in the Silent Thunder Order have complained of burning out in terms of their participation in the Zen community. Some have faded into obscurity and were never heard from again. Others have come back after years. The record for the longest hiatus is about three decades. This cohort would amount to a small percentage of the total attendance, or course, but it has been noted that more people come and go than stay. Matsuoka-roshi used to say, of some disciple that was no longer showing up, "Come-and-go type" or, "Wishy-washy type." I assume that these lost souls continue to practice in some form or other, hopefully maintaining their practice of meditation at least. And they probably retain an interest in reading about Zen and Buddhism. And I think it fair to say that if they had stayed, instead of moving on, we would have no place for most of them to sit. This is why I refer to the Zen sangha — and it is probably true of all communities — that it is like a cloud, constantly evaporating and recondensing, with new molecules of water, over time. People have real lives, other demands on their time and energy, and they always have. Master Dogen pointed out that the famous places in China were not typically comprised of large groups, but a small core of a half-dozen monks or so, with others coming and going from time to time. A cursory reading of the history of the formal transmission in Soto Zen makes this clear. Many of these encounters were short-term. So I don't worry too much about the many former members who are no longer in attendance. I do reach out from time to time if someone has suddenly disappeared who was diligently engaging on a frequent basis for some time, out of curiosity if nothing else. But I have enough to worry about, dealing with those who are presently practicing, as well as the constant flow of newcomers knocking at our doors. Most newcomers report that their first exposure to Zen is through reading — or, nowadays, listening — to a well-known teacher online, such as Thich Nhat Hahn, or Ram Dass. I had the pleasure of meeting Ram Dass in person in the 1960s, when I was teaching at the School of the Art Institute and the University of Illinois at Chicago Circle campus. Some friends of mine who knew him told me he was travelling through the area, so I asked them to connect us, and invited him to speak to one of my classes at the U of I. I still have the 1/4-inch reel-to-reel audiotape somewhere of his talk, which was his classic trip to India, giving LSD to the guru tale. I plan to have it digitized so that those who are interested can listen to it. Not to be too much of a name-dropper — near to greatness, and all that — but he came to our apartment for dinner that evening and cooked chipatis and beans for us. My friends told me later that he had told them he thought I was one of the most spiritual people he had ever met. That may have been because my apartment was full of student work, models of geometric structure studies they had done in one of my design classes.Another factoid of interest, and one of those coincidences that we say are not in Zen — he was driving a Chrysler Airstream at that time, and several years earlier, before I had graduated from the Institute of Design, my best friend at that time and I attended a talk by Claes Oldenburg, the famous Swedish-American sculptor, at the University of Chicago, at which presentation, amongst other things, we saw his life-size soft sculpture of — you guessed it — a Chrysler Airstream. But I digress. I have never heard of anyone burning out from too much study of the dharma, or too much sitting in meditation, although some naturally grow tired of too much group discussion, especially when it slides down the slippery slope of intellectualism and erudition, as has been seen many times in the history of Zen. Ch'an Master Huineng famously made a public show of burning scrolls of sutras to make this point. Dogen held that both things can be true at the same time — that the written record also contains the dharma, even though subject to the limitations of language. No, usually, problems with burnout arise in the context of serving the Zen community. Community, or sangha, is the third leg of the stool of Buddhism, joining that of dharma, the study of the teachings of Buddhism and Zen; and most centrally, buddha, the practice of zazen, or the meditation of Buddha. This is what Zen claims to transmit. Where the rubber hits the road in terms of burnout is usually in an individual's efforts to serve the sangha in ways that demand what seems to them to be a lot of time, effort, and energy, with all the opportunity costs associated with any form of contributions of one's precious time to any cause. The third rail for most or all not-for-profit enterprises such as ASZC seems to consist in serving on the board of directors. What I refer to as the "substitution effect" begins to set in — one finds oneself sitting less and less over time, the limited bandwidth available for Zen being consumed more and more by the ever-evolving demands of raising money and paying the bills; upkeep, repair and maintenance of the facility; producing and publishing online communications, newsletters, bulletins and podcasts; and, finally, the sheer pressure of administrating a robust schedule of programs of dharma study and meditation, serving a shape-shifting and ever-growing community of practitioners. As one who has been immersed in this process for going on 50 years -— ASZC was incorporated in 1977 — I am very familiar with this syndrome of overcommitting, on a personal level. But I think it may be that we are getting it backward if and when we do burn out in service to the sangha. It is easy to lose track of the central focus of Zen. The three legs of the stool are not equal in importance or effectiveness in supporting our personal practice. Buddha practice, Zen meditation, or zazen, is definitely first and foremost. Dharma, or study of the teachings, comes second and is subordinate to zazen. Without zazen there is little hope of ever comprehending buddha-dharma. Sangha, community participation and service, is a distant third, and is not really necessary, or conducive to personal practice, absent meditation and study. When we get this backward is when we tend to burn out. If I had not been continuing my meditation practice over the 60 years I have been engaged in all three dimensions, from the mid-1960s at the Zen Buddhist Temple of Chicago, through the years of establishing ASZC in Atlanta, I would have burnt out long ago. Attending most of the public sessions of meditation and witnessing the evolution of the Zen lives of hundreds of individuals have reinvigorated my zeal for Zen again and again, especially during the difficult times we have endured. The evidence of my senses has convinced me ever more undoubtedly of the value and effectiveness of Zen as the Upaya, or skillful means, for our times, as Matsuoka-roshi believed. If you have found yourself experiencing burnout, please consider whether or not you see yourself in this picture. If you do your best to attend a reasonable number of our scheduled meditation programs including daily, weekly, monthly and annual opportunities, such as day sits (zazenkai), longer retreats (sesshin), classes and workshops, you will rediscover the renewable resource that is genuine Zen practice. If you have gotten entangled in the ASZC or STO administration or other demanding roles of service to the sangha, please understand that your efforts are very much appreciated, but that you may be inadvertently developing the substitution effect syndrome, which ultimately does not bode well either for your practice, or the wellbeing of the community. If you relinquish your position and function, no worries, someone else will step up. I have witnessed this again and again. There is no way to plan for, or to design around, human nature, so please do not blame the corporate entity that is the Zen community for your unhappiness. If instead you renew and reinvigorate your practice of meditation, both at home and at the Zen center, you may begin to see that the burden you are or were carrying on behalf of your fellow travelers on the Zen raft was not so onerous, after all. And that somehow, willy-nilly, what you may have seen as your vital function within the Zen community will be taken up by others. If you do not claim your place on the cushion, you may miss the point of practice altogether. Which would be a "cry and shame" as Albert the Alligator would say. And I know that dates me. Look up "Pogo the Possum" by Walt Kelly. Let me propose in closing that you apply a tried-and-true time management approach to your Zen practice. There are only 24 hours in a day, as we say, so unless we chuck it all and go join a monastery, or become a hermit, only a small fraction of those hours can be devoted specifically to our practice, as we conceive it. So let's say you create the visual of a classic clock face representing your 24-hour day. After filling in all the many other things you do to get you through the night, such as sleeping, and through the demands of your day, such as paying the rent, take a look at how much time is left over. For the sake of argument, let's say you can free up an hour a day, or maybe two. In that time, maybe an hour in the morning, and an hour in the evening, maybe more of a weekend, you commit 50% to Buddha Practice: time on the cushion; 30% to Dharma Study: reading up on the literature and joining online dialogs; that leaves 20% for Sangha Service: helping out at the center, or attending admin meetings. The very exercise of visualizing — and tracking — your time may reveal that you are not actually spending as much as you think you are, or at least allow you to cut it down to a bearable amount. The main thing it may help you do is to put the emphasis where is should be: on meditation. If you are attending zazen regularly you are already doing the most you can do to support your community. Your presence encourages them in their practice more directly and to a greater degree than financial and in-kind contributions. Although those are very important. If you join the dharma dialogs online or in person on Sunday mornings and occasionally make a contribution to the conversation, that is also a service to the sangha. It indicates your sincere interest in clarifying the Great Matter, which is the main and central purpose of the pursuit of Zen. If you do both the above and still have time to devote to supporting the programs and physical plant of the Zen center, more power to you. But please be careful not to let the tail wag the Zen dog. There is a story from the history in China, if memory serves, that illustrates this principle clearly. A monk complained that during meditation, the rain was leaking in on him through the thatched roof. The Master's response? "Move down." Why spend a great deal of time and effort patching a roof, maintaining a building, if it prevents you from sitting in zazen? The building, the corporate entity, and all other dimensions of the Zen community and its physical manifestation in the world are subject to the three marks of dukkha. They are impermanent in the long run, imperfect in their current variation, and inherently insubstantial in comparison to the effects of zazen on your consciousness. To quote the venerable Ch'an Master Sekito Kisen, from the closing line of his short but dense poem, Sandokai—Harmony of Difference and Equality: I respectfully urge you who study the mysterydo not pass your days and nights in vain
