"Pupasse."     EVERY day, every day, it was the same overture in Madame Joubert's room in the Institut St. Denis; the strident:    'Mesdemoiselles; ' vos places! Notre P're qui est dans le ciel ' Qui a fait ce bruit?'     'It's Pupasse, madame! It's Pupasse!' The answer invariably was unanimous.     'But, Madame Joubert, ' I assure you, Madame Joubert, ' I could not help it! They know I could not help it!'     By this time the fresh new fool's cap made from yesterday's 'Bee' would have been pinned on her head.     'Quelle injustice! Quelle injustice!'     This last apostrophe in a high, whining nasal voice, always procured Pupasse's elevation on the tall three-legged stool in the corner. This week in Louisiana history.

Please follow us on: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠! In this episode, Kimberly and Tommaso share their recent experiences moving to Italy, including challenging administrative tasks and funny observations. They also provide insights into upcoming travel changes in Italy, highlight various festivals, and discuss the growing issue of AI-generated travel content. Key Points: Navigating Italian Bureaucracy: Kimberly and Tommaso discuss the difficulties of setting up utilities and managing documents in Italy. Kimberly shares a humorous anecdote about forgetting her passport for a critical appointment, despite having submitted many copies previously. Tommaso jokes about the prevalence of hex screws in Italian furniture assembly, suggesting archaeologists would be confused by their abundance. Upcoming Travel Changes and Festivals: Kimberly mentions the ongoing, lengthy immigration process, which will take over a year and a half to complete. They praise the Arena di Verona, the venue for the recent Olympics closing ceremony, for its preservation and beauty. Kimberly and Tommaso talk about upcoming Italian festivals, including the Olive Oil Festival in Monopoli and the San Nicola celebration in Bari. Other events mentioned include the Valle d'Itria opera festival in Martina Franca and the Loco Rotondo Grape Festival in Puglia. They also highlight unique festivals in Tuscany, like the Palio di Somari (donkey race) in Torrita di Siena, and Pisa's Luminaria di San Ranieri, a candlelit celebration along the Arno River. Annoying Travel Updates: Rome has started charging a two-euro fee to see the Trevi Fountain, following a successful experiment with an elevated walkway to control tourist flow. Kimberly and Tommaso discuss the delayed rollout of the EES (Entry-Exit System) and the Aetius Visa, noting long lines and potential four-hour delays at major European airports. They advise travelers to consider flying into smaller EU airports to avoid potential bottlenecks. The DHS's shutdown of Global Pass in the US is also noted as a potential issue for American travelers returning from Italy. Rome recently removed 12 iconic umbrella-shaped pine trees from the Via dei Fori Imperiali due to age and safety concerns after several fell and injured pedestrians. Agriturismo Experiences: Agriturismos (renovated farmhouses offering accommodations) are growing in popularity across Italy. These establishments provide organic, farm-to-table food, often with their own vineyards, and many activities like cooking classes, olive oil tastings, and yoga. Kimberly highlights the historical context of agriturismos, which emerged after WWII to revive rural farm life and encourage tourism. She describes waking up to the sounds of cowbells, enjoying fresh farm eggs, homemade bread, and goat cheese, all with modern amenities. Beware of AI Slop: Tommaso expresses frustration with “AI slop,” online articles generated by artificial intelligence that provide unauthentic or inaccurate travel information. He cites examples of articles recommending crowded tourist spots like Siena and Lucca as places “where tourists won't go.” Kimberly adds that these websites often automatically launch booking platforms and feature fake family photos. They encourage listeners to seek out authentic travel information from real people with local experience, differentiating between genuine content creators and purely digital, ad-driven sites.

Andrés Salado nos hablará de compositores que eligieron una forma distinta de contar sus sentimientos: hablaron de sus amores a través de sus partituras. Todas las obras que escucharemos tienen algo en común: son declaraciones de amor ocultas, confesiones íntimas que no usaron la voz, sino la música.A lo largo del programa nos asomaremos a varias historias de amor, entre ellas una de las más célebres y trágicas de todos los tiempos: Romeo y Julieta. El amor prohibido entre los Montesco y los Capuleto, que recorrió las calles de Verona y desafió a sus familias, lo escucharemos en la música de Prokófiev y en la suite de su ballet, donde cada compás late con la fuerza de esa pasión imposible.Escuchar audio

Valpolicella Ripasso is one of the most fascinating wines we have ever had. It's not just the flavor, which slaps, but also the process and history behind it. We don't want to spoil it before you listen, but the Ripasso method is a totally unique approach to wine making that aspiring wine nerds absolutely need to know! Hailing from the beautiful area around Verona, Italy (yes, the place where Romeo and Juliet hung out), Valpolicella is known for not just one, but four different styles of red wine which we dig into because each has an important place in the production of Valpolicella Ripasso. The result of the amazing process of Ripasso is a wine that is both complex and food friendly, rich yet acidic, and an underappreciated wine that punches well above it's weight in terms of value to price. They don't call it baby Amarone for nothing. And, if you don't know what that means, you need to listen so you can learn more about these unbelievable wines. And, as an extra bonus, in our Wine in the News This Week section we discuss how wine was at the center of the Supreme Court decision to strike down the Trump Administration's tariffs. Bet you didn't know that. Do yourself a favor and dive in!

Le parole della presidente del Cio Kirsty Coventry sono ormai risuonate, domenica 22 febbraio, nel silenzio dell'Arena di Verona. I Giochi invernali di MilanoCortina si sono chiusi: addio, o meglio arrivederci, al fuoco e alla bandiera olimpici. La serata veronese ha alternato mille protagonisti e stati d'animo: da Rigoletto gran cerimoniere nella celebrazione dell'opera lirica, a Roberto Bolle che è letteralmente volato nel cielo dell'Arena per incantare con la sua danza, a Paolo Fresu che ha intonato con la sua tromba l'inno italiano, ad Achille Lauro per il gran finale. Passiamo ora il testimone olimpico alle Alpi Francesi, che ospiteranno su un territorio altrettanto ampio i Giochi invernali 2030. Per noi è tempo di bilanci. Accolte con scetticismo e preoccupazione, le Olimpiadi hanno superato l'esame: l'organizzazione ha retto, e sotto il profilo sportivo, l'Italia chiude col bilancio record di 30 medaglie, 10 ori, 6 argenti e 14 bronzi: una doppia vittoria da consolidare ora insieme all'eredità olimpica.Ma soprattutto - e sono quelle che riviviamo oggi a Olympia - i Giochi ci hanno regalato emozioni e storie che hanno avuto per protagonisti loro, le campionesse e i campioni che hanno lasciato sulla neve e il ghiaccio il loro segno indelebile, con le loro vittorie e le loro sconfitte, i loro sorrisi e le loro lacrime di gioia o di dolore.Nella seconda parte del programma, analizzeremo il medagliere-record della spedizione azzurra (30 medaglie, di cui 10 ori, 6 argenti e 14 bronzi) nell'intervista con il segretario generale del Coni e responsabile della preparazione olimpica, Carlo Mornati.

Entramos de lleno en la entrada de la primavera y dejadme que os reconozca que es, para mí, la época más bonita de toda la temporada de ciclismo.En este episodio de hoy empezamos charlando con Carlos Verona, un corredor que se ha hecho su hueco por derecho propio en el Lidl-Trek, una estructura con una ambición voraz que busca crecer hasta tutear a los equipos más grandes del mundo. Carlos nos habla de su papel, de su nuevo compañero Juan Ayuso y pone el foco en Héctor Álvarez, un chico del que os sorprenderá mucho lo que nos tiene que decir.También contamos con el análisis de Samuel Sánchez para desgranar lo que nos espera esta primavera, analizando a los grandes dominadores del pelotón y mojándose con una porra de favoritos para los próximos Monumentos.Como no todo es competición, Ada Xinxó nos trae en su sección ciclismo a sorbos, donde maridamos deporte y placer con tres bebidas para tu copa y tres destinos espectaculares para descubrir en bicicleta: la mística de Flandes, la dureza de Escocia y la luz de la Toscana, ahora que la Strade Bianche está a la vuelta de la esquina.En un plano más serio, abordamos un tema desagradable pero necesario con Fernando Ferrari de Ciclo 21; comentamos las últimas novedades sobre el caso de Marc Soler, su padre Jaume y su relación con Pepe Martí, un preparador proscrito. Es un tema que nos entristece tratar pero que también forma parte de la realidad de este deporte. Finalmente, Jaime Novo en el espacio Ciclosfera nos acerca al ciclismo urbano junto a Silvia Casorrán, secretaria general de la Red de Ciudades por la Bicicleta, para entender cómo evolucionan nuestras calles para ser lugares mejores donde vivir.Un programa completo, cercano y directo que ya tenéis disponible para escuchar en Spotify e iVoox. ¡Gracias por acompañarnos una semana más en el pelotón de Joanseguidor!

A despedida olímpica de Edson Bindilatti, aos 46 anos, foi marcada por emoção e simbolismo nos Jogos de Inverno de Milano-Cortina. Capitão da equipe brasileira de bobsled por mais de duas décadas, o piloto disputou na Itália sua sexta participação olímpica, um feito raro no esporte brasileiro, e confirmou que esta foi sua última presença nos Jogos como atleta. Luciana Quaresma, especial para RFI A aposentadoria das pistas olímpicas, no entanto, não significa ruptura com a modalidade que define sua trajetória. Mesmo deixando as competições olímpicas, Bindilatti mantém o foco no futuro do esporte. Ele idealizou um centro de treinamento de bobsled e skeleton em São Caetano do Sul, na região metropolitana de São Paulo. O projeto “Sonho Real” prevê a construção de uma pista de largada adaptada, que permite treinos técnicos em solo brasileiro, mesmo sem gelo. “O projeto surgiu porque eu sempre quis devolver tudo o que o esporte me deu. A gente começou as obras, mas os recursos acabaram. Ainda falta investimento para terminar, mas eu tenho certeza de que vamos conseguir,” afirma o atleta baiano. Sonho em movimento O projeto “Sonho Real” prevê a conclusão de uma pista de largada, conhecida como push track, equipada com trilho metálico e trenó adaptado com rodas, permitindo que atletas treinem a fase mais decisiva da prova, a impulsão inicial, mesmo sem gelo. A iniciativa visa suprir uma das principais carências da modalidade em um país sem pistas refrigeradas, oferecendo treinamento técnico contínuo ao longo do ano. Além da preparação de pilotos e atletas para o alto rendimento, o centro tem vocação formadora e social: Bindilatti pretende revelar novos talentos, ampliar a participação feminina no bobsled e atuar como mentor da próxima geração, transformando a experiência acumulada em seis Olimpíadas em legado permanente para os esportes de inverno no país. O projeto tem caráter duplo: alto rendimento e inclusão social. “A ideia é formar novos atletas desde a base, criando um caminho estruturado para o desenvolvimento do bobsled no país. O que me move é saber que existe futuro, que existe possibilidade de evolução. Eu quero continuar contribuindo com o meu conhecimento, na parte técnica, física, de pilotagem, para que a gente possa melhorar cada vez mais.” De pioneiro à consolidação da modalidade A história de Bindilatti se confunde com a do bobsled brasileiro. Quando iniciou na modalidade, no fim da década de 1990, o cenário era de improviso. Faltavam recursos, estrutura e equipamentos competitivos. “Quando a gente começou era bem difícil. Não tinha material competitivo, não tinha estrutura. A gente veio desbravando, evoluindo”, relembra. Ao longo das seis participações olímpicas, durante vinte e seis anos, ele acompanhou a transformação gradual do esporte de inverno no país. O que antes dependia de esforço individual e criatividade passou a contar com maior organização, planejamento e suporte institucional. “Hoje, quando um atleta chega ao bobsled, ele tem tudo em mãos. Não precisa ir atrás de conhecimento, já está tudo perto dele. Isso me deixa muito feliz de ter participado dessa evolução não só do bobsled, mas dos esportes de inverno no geral.” O peso de competir sem neve Representar um país tropical em uma modalidade de gelo nunca foi tarefa simples. O custo elevado dos equipamentos, cotados em moeda estrangeira, e a necessidade de treinar no exterior sempre foram obstáculos adicionais para a equipe brasileira. “É uma modalidade cara. A gente já sai várias vezes atrás das grandes equipes por conta do valor do dólar e do real”, explica. Milano-Cortina também ficará marcada pela conquista histórica de Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, que garantiu ao Brasil sua primeira medalha de ouro em Jogos Olímpicos de Inverno no esqui alpino, um marco para o país e para a América do Sul. Para Bindilatti, o resultado vai além do pódio “Hoje a gente tem uma medalha olímpica de ouro. Não tenho palavras para agradecer por estar vivendo esse momento”, afirmou. “Isso abre os olhos para futuros patrocinadores e investidores, para que a gente possa trabalhar de uma forma mais direcionada para cada modalidade.” Ele acredita que a conquista tem potencial de transformar o cenário dos esportes de inverno no país. “Essa medalha histórica mostra que é possível. Agora a gente percebe um olhar mais atento para essas modalidades. Isso fortalece todo o sistema. Acredito que essa visibilidade pode abrir portas para investidores que queiram apostar no esporte de inverno do Brasil.” Para Bindilatti, o momento atual é de transição e oportunidade. Ele vê uma geração mais preparada chegando e um ambiente mais estruturado para o desenvolvimento técnico. “Espero que agora a gente consiga trabalhar de forma mais direcionada, com mais subsídios para ensinar melhor e formar atletas não só vencedores no esporte, mas na vida.” Despedida com reconhecimento Em Milano-Cortina 2026, a sexta Olimpíada representou o fechamento de um ciclo iniciado há mais de 20 anos. A última descida teve peso simbólico para quem ajudou a colocar o Brasil no mapa do bobsled internacional. “Representar o meu país é algo muito especial. Eu tive essa oportunidade por cinco vezes e agora tive a chance de representar o Brasil pela sexta vez em Jogos Olímpicos. Poucos atletas tiveram essa possibilidade, ainda mais estando em alta performance”, afirmou. Segundo ele, a preparação para esta edição teve um significado diferente. “Eu sempre me preparei pensando nos Jogos Olímpicos, mas especificamente para este eu cheguei em uma condição muito melhor, mesmo com 46 anos. Isso prova que a idade é apenas um número.” Com o desempenho em Cortina, a equipe liderada por Edson Bindilatti encerra a participação olímpica consolidando um processo de amadurecimento técnico e competitivo que vem sendo construído há mais de duas décadas. A 19ª colocação, melhor resultado da história do país na modalidade, simboliza não apenas uma marca numérica, mas o avanço estrutural do bobsled brasileiro no cenário internacional, justamente na despedida olímpica de seu principal pioneiro. O reconhecimento veio também fora da pista. Na cerimônia de encerramento, em Verona, Bindilatti foi escolhido para carregar a bandeira do Brasil, gesto que sintetiza sua importância histórica para a modalidade. Se o atleta se despede dos Jogos, o construtor de caminhos permanece ativo. Edson Bindilatti encerra a carreira olímpica após seis participações, mas segue determinado a impulsionar o bobsled brasileiro para além do gelo, agora como mentor e formador das próximas gerações.

Le Voci del Grigioni italiano tornano ad occuparsi di archeologia alpina, intesa non solo come disciplina di scavo, ma come strumento per leggere il territorio, comprenderne le trasformazioni e restituire memoria alle comunità.Nelle profondità del lago di Sankt Moritz millenari resti lignei conservati in condizioni eccezionali, ci raccontano di variazioni climatiche e mutamenti ambientali di lunga durata. Un archivio naturale che permette di riflettere sulla fragilità degli ecosistemi alpini e sugli equilibri che, nel corso dei secoli, hanno modellato il paesaggio.Accanto a questa dimensione ambientale, trova spazio il lavoro quotidiano di tutela svolto sul territorio: interventi legati a cantieri e infrastrutture, pianificazione preventiva, documentazione sistematica prima delle trasformazioni edilizie. Un'attività spesso silenziosa, che punta a conciliare sviluppo e conservazione, riducendo conflitti e costruendo nel tempo un rapporto di fiducia con la popolazione.Infine, l'attenzione si concentra su un importante sito alpino - Piuro, nella Bregaglia italiana, segnato da un evento catastrofico, oggi riletto attraverso ricerche stratigrafiche, analisi scientifiche e studi sulle reti economiche medievali. Oltre la memoria della tragedia, emerge la ricostruzione di un centro produttivo inserito in circuiti di scambio di ampia portata, con una restituzione dei risultati che guarda anche alla valorizzazione pubblica.Il filo conduttore è l'archeologia come chiave di lettura del presente: una disciplina che collega ambiente e storia, prevenzione e memoria, identità locale e relazioni europee, trasformando ciò che riemerge dal sottosuolo in conoscenza condivisa e patrimonio vivo.Ad accompagnarci in questo affasciante viaggio alla scoperta del nostro passato saranno Patrick Cassitti (responsabile scientifico del Servizio archeologico del Canton Grigioni) e il professor Fabio Saggioro (ordinario di archeologia medievale all'Università di Verona).

Dreaming of a trip to Verona?

In this closing chapter of the Milano Cortina 2026 Games, Chris and Will explore how moments of transition shape us — from the science of social anchoring to the quiet power of human connection. They then guide listeners through the artistry, symbolism, and emotion of the Closing Ceremony in Verona, honoring a Games that ends not with finality, but with a torch passed to what comes next.

Recognised as one of the most dynamic and internationally acclaimed conductors of his generation, Andrea Battistoni has conducted in many of the world's leading opera houses, including Covent Garden and Deutsche Oper Berlin. He's currently music director with Teatro Regio di Torino, chief conductor of the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra, and has just commenced another role – as Music Director of Opera Australia.In this wide-ranging conversation, Andrea reflects on this appointment and the artistic vision he hopes to bring to a company he feels a great connection with, as well as a deep affection for the Australian way of working. While Italian opera remains central to his musical DNA, he speaks candidly about his desire to broaden his repertoire in Australia, exploring German, Slavic and contemporary works. He also offers fascinating insights into the role of a music director, from shaping orchestral sound and casting decisions to supporting singers in the unpredictable reality of live performance.Andrea traces his own journey from a childhood in Verona inspired by summer nights at the arena and a fiercely determined mother who insisted on his musical training, to becoming the youngest conductor ever to appear at La Scala. He speaks openly about the challenges of authority, leadership and learning to manage the people as much as the music, as well as the instinct that's needed on the podium. Alongside his conducting career, composition is playing an increasingly important role in his life, with a new opera and major works premiering in Europe later this year. With lovely honesty and humour, he reflects on family life on the road, his enduring love of Puccini, and even gently compares coffee in Australia to Italy.Andrea Battistoni conducts Turandot and Madame Butterfly for Opera Australia until March 14.

L'edizione 2026 dei Giochi Olimpici Invernali ha portato l'Italia al centro del mondo sportivo per le scorse due settimane, concludendo con una cerimonia in una location unica: l'Arena di Verona.

Record Numbers Shatter Post-Pandemic Expectations Six years after the pandemic first disrupted American life, a troubling trend emerges across rural Virginia. The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank now serves approximately 180,000 people every month—a staggering 39,000 more than the pandemic's peak. Les Sinclair, the organization's Communications and PR Manager, reveals this sobering reality during a recent conversation on The Valley Today with host Janet Michael. Initially, food bank officials believed the pandemic would represent the worst crisis they'd ever face. When government assistance programs temporarily lifted many families out of poverty, demand dropped slightly to around 141,000 monthly visits. However, this optimism proved short-lived. "We thought the numbers would never go up beyond the pandemic max," Les explains. "That just didn't pan out." Instead, inflation took hold with devastating consequences. While prices soared across every sector, wages failed to keep pace. Consequently, more working families find themselves unable to afford basic necessities, forcing them to seek food assistance for the first time in their lives. A Massive Rural Footprint The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank operates across an impressive territory that spans 25 counties and eight cities throughout Virginia. Stretching from Winchester and Frederick County in the north to beyond Lynchburg and Bedford County in the south, the organization covers approximately 12,000 square miles—roughly the size of Maryland or one-third of Virginia's total area. To manage this vast region effectively, the food bank maintains four strategic warehouse locations. Their headquarters sits in Verona, just outside Staunton, while additional distribution centers operate in Winchester, Charlottesville, and Lynchburg. Notably, the Winchester facility alone serves Frederick, Clarke, Fauquier, Warren, Shenandoah, Page, and Rappahannock Counties, including the densely populated Loudoun County. Moreover, the organization represents a groundbreaking experiment in food banking. When founded in 1981, most food banks concentrated on urban areas where dense populations made distribution easier. The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank, however, pioneered rural food distribution—a critical distinction since nine out of ten food-insecure Americans live in rural communities rather than urban centers. The Partnership Model That Makes It Work The food bank functions as a sophisticated logistics operation, partnering with Feeding America nationally and hundreds of local food pantries regionally. Les compares their role to a Walmart warehouse, buying food by the truckload and storing massive quantities. Meanwhile, local pantries like Winchester CCAP serve as the "customer-facing" locations, directly distributing food to families in need. This partnership proves essential for reaching scattered rural populations. "We couldn't do what we do without them," Les emphasizes. "They couldn't do what they do without us." Furthermore, the organization sources food from diverse channels. Retail grocers contribute 36% of donations through partner pickup programs, where pantries collect excess inventory directly from stores like Food Lion, Kroger, and Giant. Additionally, the USDA provides government-purchased food from American farmers, while large manufacturers donate products with misprinted labels or excess inventory. Local and regional farmers also contribute fresh produce to the network. The Grocery Store Challenge Recently, however, the retail partnership faced unexpected pressure. During October and November, and again during winter snowstorms, consumers cleared grocery store shelves completely. When stores have no excess inventory, they have nothing left to donate. Compounding this challenge, grocery chains have become remarkably efficient at predicting demand. Using AI technology, they now anticipate that shoppers will buy strawberry Pop-Tarts before storms and adjust inventory accordingly. While this efficiency benefits retailers and consumers, it reduces the surplus available for food banks. Simultaneously, USDA food supplies have dropped 30% year-over-year, forcing the food bank to purchase more food directly. Although they cannot fully replace the high-quality proteins and vegetables the government typically provides, they continue prioritizing nutritious options for their partner pantries. Shattering Misconceptions About Food Pantry Users Perhaps the most persistent myth surrounding food insecurity involves who actually needs assistance. Many people assume food pantry visitors are simply lazy and should "get a job." The reality, however, tells a dramatically different story. Most people seeking food assistance are working. They're trying to improve their lives but living on financial margins so thin that a single unexpected expense creates crisis. In fact, more than a quarter of the food bank's guests visit only once per year—they simply need help getting over a temporary hump. Les shares the story of a convenience store worker who injured her wrist on the job. Unable to work while waiting for workers' compensation, she has zero income and cares for a paralyzed son. She's not lazy—she's injured, uninsured temporarily, and desperately trying to survive until she can return to work. Even when workers' compensation arrives, it typically covers only 70% of regular wages and takes considerable time to process. For families living paycheck to paycheck, missing even one payment creates cascading financial disasters. The Government Shutdown Ripple Effect Currently, partial government shutdowns compound these challenges. Federal workers, particularly TSA agents, continue reporting to work without paychecks. They still pay for childcare, gas, and other necessities, but many receive payment only monthly—making it extraordinarily difficult to stretch resources from one paycheck to the next. Contrary to popular belief, landlords cannot always wait patiently for delayed rent payments. Many landlords depend on rental income to pay their own mortgages. When a tenant misses a $2,000 rent payment, the landlord must still cover their mortgage. Moreover, the economic impact extends far beyond government employees. When federal workers stop dining out, restaurants lose business. Wait staff lose tips. Restaurant owners order less food from suppliers like Sysco. Truck drivers haul fewer loads. The entire economic system suffers. Sarah Cohen of Route 11 Chips experienced this firsthand. During COVID and government shutdowns, her sales to DC cafes plummeted because federal workers weren't coming to the office for lunch. These ripple effects reach deep into Virginia's economy, affecting businesses and workers far from the capital. The Impossible Choice: Heat or Eat Winter brings particularly cruel dilemmas for struggling families. Les recently spoke with William, a roofer injured on the job who lives in a mobile home with his dog, Cocoa. Unable to afford heating, William and Cocoa "just sort of curl up" together while he waits for surgeries that will allow him to return to work. Another woman caring for three disabled grandchildren faces $400 monthly electric bills. With both she and her husband experiencing serious health issues and the children's parents out of the picture, they constantly struggle with the impossible choice between heating their home and feeding their family. These aren't isolated cases. Across the food bank's service area, families regularly face this devastating decision. When $600 heating bills arrive after cold snaps, many choose to keep the lights on and visit food pantries to feed their families. Food as Medicine: A Holistic Approach The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank takes a progressive stance on nutrition, viewing food as medicine rather than mere sustenance. They prioritize fresh produce, which comprised 30% of their distribution last year, because they understand that proper nutrition helps people thrive. Nutritious food keeps medical bills down across entire communities. Children pay better attention in school when properly nourished. People can manage chronic illnesses and diseases through better nutrition. Conversely, when families can only afford high-calorie processed foods, they face increased health risks despite consuming adequate calories—debunking the myth that overweight individuals cannot be food insecure. Additionally, access to food reduces stress, which itself functions as a health intervention. When people live on the edge of a financial cliff, they cannot make good long-term decisions. They're too focused on simply not falling. However, when food security removes one major stressor, families can step back from that precipice and begin making better choices for their futures. Quality Food for Everyone Another common misconception suggests that food bank offerings are somehow subpar. In reality, the food distributed through this network maintains high-quality standards. While well-meaning donors sometimes contribute items like ramen noodles during food drives, the bulk of distributed food comes from retail grocers, USDA programs, and direct purchases of nutritious items. The food bank specifically prioritizes produce because people crave fresh fruits and vegetables. Although produce represents one of the most expensive food categories—often making it a luxury for families on tight budgets—the organization believes everyone deserves access to healthy, nutritious food regardless of their economic circumstances. How Communities Can Help Fortunately, community members have multiple ways to support this critical mission. Volunteering provides valuable assistance, and notably, many food bank guests themselves volunteer, giving back to the community that supported them during difficult times. Financial donations prove particularly effective. Just $1 helps provide more than three meals, meaning $10 supplies a month of meals for someone in need, while $100 provides 300 meals. The food bank's purchasing power and logistics expertise amplify every dollar donated. Beyond time and money, advocacy matters tremendously. Currently, the Federation of Virginia Food Banks—representing all seven food banks across the state—works to promote "food as medicine" initiatives with the state legislature. Community members can support these efforts through the food bank's website at BRAFB.org/actnow or BRAFB.org/getinvolved. Finally, social media engagement amplifies the message. Following the food bank's social media accounts, resharing posts, and commenting helps spread awareness that hunger relief remains an urgent community need. Finding Help When You Need It For individuals and families currently struggling with food insecurity, Les offers an important message: "You're not alone, and we are here with you. We are here to walk with you through this challenge in your life." The food bank's website features an easy-to-use food finder tool. Visitors to BRAFB.org can click "Find Food," enter their address, and immediately see all nearby pantries with contact information, open hours, and everything needed to access food quickly. Alternatively, Virginians can call 211 for phone-based assistance connecting them with local resources. A Community Responsibility As this conversation reveals, food insecurity affects far more people than most realize—one in nine people across the food bank's service area. These aren't strangers or statistics; they're neighbors, coworkers, and community members facing temporary crises that could happen to anyone. The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank stands ready to help, but they cannot do it alone. Through partnerships with local pantries, support from community donors and volunteers, and advocacy for systemic solutions, the organization continues fighting to ensure everyone has enough to eat. In Janet Michael's words, it's "a responsibility I do not take lightly"—and neither should any of us.

Full Text of Readings Tuesday of the Sixth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 336 The Saint of the day is Seven Founders of the Servite Order The Story of the Seven Founders of the Servite Order Can you imagine seven prominent men of Boston or Denver banding together, leaving their homes and professions, and going into solitude for a life directly given to God? That is what happened in the cultured and prosperous city of Florence in the middle of the 13th century. The city was torn with political strife as well as the heresy of the Cathari, who believed that physical reality was inherently evil. Morals were low and religion seemed meaningless. In 1240, seven noblemen of Florence mutually decided to withdraw from the city to a solitary place for prayer and direct service of God. Their initial difficulty was providing for their dependents, since two were still married and two were widowers. Their aim was to lead a life of penance and prayer, but they soon found themselves disturbed by constant visitors from Florence. They next withdrew to the deserted slopes of Monte Senario. In 1244, under the direction of Saint Peter of Verona, O.P., this small group adopted a religious habit similar to the Dominican habit, choosing to live under the Rule of St. Augustine and adopting the name of the Servants of Mary. The new Order took a form more like that of the mendicant friars than that of the older monastic Orders. Members of the community came to the United States from Austria in 1852 and settled in New York and later in Philadelphia. The two American provinces developed from the foundation made by Father Austin Morini in 1870 in Wisconsin. Community members combined monastic life and active ministry. In the monastery, they led a life of prayer, work and silence while in the active apostolate they engaged in parochial work, teaching, preaching, and other ministerial activities. Reflection The time in which the Seven Founders of the Servite Order lived is very easily comparable to the situation in which we find ourselves today. It is “the best of times and the worst of times,” as Dickens once wrote. Some, perhaps many, feel called to a countercultural life, even in religion. All of us are faced in a new and urgent way with the challenge to make our lives decisively centered in Christ.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Olu is live for the Midweek Review and Weekend Preview show, breaking down Nigerian players' performances across Europe and looking ahead to a busy weekend of cup and league action.He begins with the Premier League midweek review, starting with the Nigerian players. Fulham's Alex Iwobi, Calvin Bassey, and Samuel Chukwueze suffered a 3–0 defeat to Manchester City.

Christantus Uche's Crystal Palace were narrowly beaten 3–2 by Burnley in a shocking loss.Outside England, Fisayo Dele-Bashiru provided an assist in Lazio's Coppa Italia tie, which ended 1–1 before Lazio progressed on penalties. Olu also touches on Ademola Lookman's Atletico Madrid facing Barcelona in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals.With no Premier League fixtures this weekend, attention turns to the FA Cup. Olu previews the Nigerian players involved, including Fulham, Wolves, Birmingham City's Bright Osayi-Samuel, and Chuba Akpom's Ipswich.He then rounds up with his top five picks outside England, highlighting Victor Osimhen's Galatasaray against Eyupspor as they look to extend their lead at the top of the table.

Le Olimpiadi invernali Milano-Cortina 2026 produrranno effetti economici destinati a estendersi fino al 2050, con un impatto complessivo stimato in 6,1 miliardi di euro. Secondo l'analisi del Centro studi Unimpresa, il Veneto intercetterà 2,1 miliardi, pari al 34% del totale, con un'incidenza dell'1,17% sul PIL regionale, superiore a quella lombarda. Il risultato riflette il ruolo strategico di Cortina, gli investimenti sulla viabilità dolomitica e la funzione di Verona come hub di supporto. La legacy di medio periodo (2028-2030) vale 900 milioni, mentre quella di lungo periodo (2031-2050) altri 700 milioni, legati a infrastrutture, mobilità e attrattività territoriale. La Lombardia concentra 3,2 miliardi (52% del totale), pari allo 0,72% del PIL regionale, mentre il Trentino-Alto Adige registra l'impatto relativo più elevato: 800 milioni, pari all'1,60% del PIL. Nel complesso, le tre regioni coinvolte assorbono un impatto pari allo 0,90% del loro PIL combinato. Parliamo con Alberto Stefani, presidente della Regione Veneto.Industria 2025 in stallo, la ripresa estiva salva i ricaviL'industria italiana chiude il 2025 in equilibrio fragile: ricavi a 1122 miliardi, +0,2% a valori correnti grazie allo sprint del secondo semestre, mentre a valori costanti prosegue il calo, seppur contenuto. La crescita si concentra tra luglio e novembre (+1,8%) dopo un primo semestre negativo (-1,3%), segnato dalle incertezze sui dazi USA. L'auto (-8,3%) resta il settore peggiore; in difficoltà anche metallurgia, chimica, moda e largo consumo. A sostenere le medie sono alimentari, farmaceutica e meccanica, quest'ultima spinta da Transizione 5.0. Rispetto al pre-Covid il fatturato è più alto del 23%, ma trainato dall'inflazione: in sei anni alimentari e farmaceutica crescono del 40%, l'auto resta in rosso e la moda si ferma al +3,9%. Le prospettive per il 2026 appaiono migliori grazie al recupero della fiducia e agli investimenti interni in macchinari, attesi in rafforzamento con il ritorno dell'iperammortamento. Resta però la pressione competitiva cinese: import UE +8,7%, Italia +20,7% con quota al 12,6%, la più alta tra i grandi Paesi europei, anche se senza erosione visibile delle quote italiane nei partner UE. Il commento è di Alessandra Lanza, Senior Partner di Prometeia.È nato "Merzoni", il nuovo tandem per l'EuropaL'asse Roma-Berlino si prepara a emergere come nuovo motore politico europeo in vista del Consiglio europeo sulla competitività, preceduto da un vertice informale promosso da Giorgia Meloni e Friedrich Merz. L'intesa tra i due governi, definita pragmatica e operativa, si estende da migrazione e materie prime a difesa e politica industriale, come confermato dal piano d'azione firmato a Villa Pamphili. In ambienti diplomatici si parla di un riequilibrio degli assetti europei che ridimensiona il ruolo francese, mentre Macron tenta di restare centrale proponendo nuovo debito comune per difesa e tecnologia. Sullo sfondo restano le divergenze strategiche su autonomia europea, rapporti con Washington e industria militare, con Berlino attratta dal progetto Gcap guidato anche dall'Italia. Interviene Adriana Cerretelli, Il Sole 24 Ore.Legacy Olimpiadi, permetterà alla montagna italiana di fare "il salto in Champions league"?Le Olimpiadi rappresentano per Cortina e il Cadore una scommessa di lungo periodo sul turismo e sulle infrastrutture. Oltre 350 milioni sono stati investiti per ammodernare la viabilità verso la valle, con interventi storici sulla statale Alemagna e varianti strategiche attese da decenni. Nonostante i ritardi nei cantieri, amministratori locali e operatori turistici vedono nei Giochi un'occasione irripetibile per rilanciare l'economia montana, fermare lo spopolamento e garantire servizi moderni. Cortina punta a rinnovare la propria immagine dopo decenni di immobilismo, tra nuovi hotel e infrastrutture di accoglienza, con l'obiettivo di assicurare un'eredità capace di sostenere il turismo per i prossimi trent'anni. Ci raggiunge nei nostri studi Andrea Baccuini, Super G - Italian Mountain Club.

Full Text of Readings The Saint of the day is Saint Josephine Bakhita Saint Josephine Bakhita's Story For many years, Josephine Bakhita was a slave but her spirit was always free and eventually that spirit prevailed. Born in Olgossa in the Darfur region of southern Sudan, Josephine was kidnapped at the age of 7, sold into slavery and given the name Bakhita, which means fortunate. She was resold several times, finally in 1883 to Callisto Legnani, Italian consul in Khartoum, Sudan. Two years later, he took Josephine to Italy and gave her to his friend Augusto Michieli. Bakhita became babysitter to Mimmina Michieli, whom she accompanied to Venice's Institute of the Catechumens, run by the Canossian Sisters. While Mimmina was being instructed, Josephine felt drawn to the Catholic Church. She was baptized and confirmed in 1890, taking the name Josephine. When the Michielis returned from Africa and wanted to take Mimmina and Josephine back with them, the future saint refused to go. During the ensuing court case, the Canossian Sisters and the patriarch of Venice intervened on Josephine's behalf. The judge concluded that since slavery was illegal in Italy, she had actually been free since 1885. Saint Josephine Bakhita entered the Institute of St. Magdalene of Canossa in 1893 and made her profession three years later. In 1902, she was transferred to the city of Schio (northeast of Verona), where she assisted her religious community through cooking, sewing, embroidery, and welcoming visitors at the door. She soon became well loved by the children attending the sisters' school and the local citizens. She once said, “Be good, love the Lord, pray for those who do not know Him. What a great grace it is to know God!” The first steps toward her beatification began in 1959. She was beatified in 1992 and canonized eight years later. Reflection Saint Josephine Bakhita's body was mutilated by those who enslaved her, but they could not touch her spirit. Her Baptism set her on an eventual path toward asserting her civic freedom and then service to God's people as a Canossian Sister. She who worked under many “masters” was finally happy to address God as “master” and carry out everything that she believed to be God's will for her. Learn more about Saint Josephine Bakhita!

Stefán Pálsson og Kanslarinn sjálfur Halldór Örn Kristjánsson ræða kraftaverkið í Verona 1984-85 og ítalska boltann á þeim árum.

Verona, novembre 1994 – Eleonora Perfranceschi, ex impiegata delle Poste, vive sola con la figlia Nadia in un appartamento nel quartiere di San Michele Extra. Quando scompare improvvisamente nel nulla, Nadia parla di un viaggio imprevisto. Ma qualcosa non torna. Dopo giorni di silenzio, il corpo di Eleonora viene trovato sul ciglio di una strada, seminudo e abbandonato come quello di una sconosciuta. La scena sembra suggerire una rapina finita male, ma gli inquirenti non si lasciano ingannare. A pochi passi da lei, ci sono due figure insospettabili: sua figlia Nadia e il fidanzato Marco Rancani. Le indagini ricostruiscono un delitto calcolato, messo in atto con lucidità e motivato dal desiderio di una vita libera, agiata e senza regole. Un piano che parte dal veleno e si conclude con uno strangolamento. Ma chi ha veramente ideato tutto? Quanto ha influito l'ambiente familiare? E com'è possibile che una figlia arrivi a uccidere la propria madre con tanta freddezza?

Dani Blanco nos acerca a la historia del Verona, campeón de Italia en 1985.

This is a story of growth through creativity, experimentation, and using technology to stay lean.Carlo Pandian (LinkedIn) is the founder of Slow Travel Italia. Four years ago he started with a single wine tasting in Verona, and today runs 160 experiences across 12 Italian cities, serving 15,000 guests a year with a very small team.In this episode, he talks to TP host Mitch Bach about exactly how he did it: experimenting with neglected time slots (like 6pm) that competitors ignore, launching five tours at once instead of one to multiply his chances of finding a niche, using Airtable and automations to eliminate manual booking assignments and personalize communication at scale, and treating OTAs as a launchpad rather than a long-term home. Carlo shares how he identifies gaps in crowded markets by studying what's missing—not just in Italy but in places like Japan—and why he pulled out of Milan when the math didn't work. He explains his "requirements manifesto" for vetting partners, how he coaches food producers on storytelling for international audiences, and why the biggest trend he's seeing is travelers willing to spend half a day outside the city for a single product done deeply—visiting the olive grove, watching mozzarella pulled from boiling water, understanding one thing fully rather than tasting nine things superficially.As always, more info and takeaways on tourpreneur.com.
