PALERMO (ITALPRESS) - "È una manifestazione di grandissimo impatto sull'internazionalizzazione, nonché il frutto di un lungo lavoro anche diplomatico che ha coinvolto le ambasciate italiane in Qatar e negli Emirati Arabi Uniti". Lo ha detto il rettore dell'Università di Palermo, Massimo Midiri, a margine della Winter School on Diabetes and Cardiometabolic Risk nella quale quaranta docenti e studenti della Qatar University di Doha e della RAK Medical & Health Sciences University degli Emirati Arabi Uniti parteciperanno a un programma intensivo di formazione e ricerca. "Oggi per la prima volta vediamo a Palermo e in Sicilia una delegazione di studenti di questi Paesi: faranno un percorso insieme ai nostri docenti sui temi del diabete e della prevenzione cardiovascolare, che in quell'area rappresentano una gravissima causa di morti precoci". In più, il rettore evidenzia come "questo progetto avrà un grandissimo impatto sulle relazioni internazionali tra la nostra Università e le loro: per Palermo è un'occasione d'oro, perché questi atenei hanno imponenti finanziamenti privati e se decidessero di investire sulla nostra città andremmo incontro a un'occasione di crescita, sia in ambito tecnologico sia nello scambio che i nostri ragazzi potrebbero avere per frequentare periodi di soggiorno e studio in Qatar e negli Emirati Arabi Uniti". xd8/vbo/gtr/mca2

Thinking back on it today, X Games champion Alex Schlopy still shakes his head. A homegrown product of Park City, Utah, in a month-long span in 2011 he won an X Games title in Aspen, became a world champion on his home hill at Park City Mountain and soared to Dew Tour gold in Snowbasin. In a roller coaster decade that saw the highest of highs and lowest of lows, today Schlopy is the happiest he's ever been – an athlete ambassador for Ski Utah and looking forward to his first runs off Jupiter in the season ahead.Schlopy was born to athletic parents. His mother, Holly Flanders, was a U.S. Ski Team downhill star. His father, Todd Schlopy, played in the National Football League. His uncle, Erik Schlopy, was a Hall of Fame U.S. Alpine Ski Team star.In the mid to late ‘00s, Utah was the epicenter of the burgeoning new sport of freeskiing. Schlopy caught the buzz from his buddy Joss Christensen. They idolized stars like Tanner Hall and Simon Dumont. At just 17, Schlopy went to the Dumont Cup in Maine, outlasting over 100 amateurs just like him who wanted a shot into the event. He got it, launching a switch right double cork 1440, and soon found himself on the podium with his buddy Joss and future legend Tom Wallisch.The next season he cranked out win after win and found himself on top of the world in a new sport that was to make its Olympic debut in 2014. Then it all came crashing down.This interview is deep and emotional, coming full circle to the joy of skiing. Here's a teaser:You're still having fun skiing?Oh, yeah. More fun than ever.Going back to your youth, what role did gymnastics play in your skiing success?Gymnastics has helped me throughout my whole entire life. And I think for any kid out there, having a baseline in gymnastics is huge. Just knowing how to use your body, learning how to flip and do all those things safely.What triggered your interest in freeskiing?When I transitioned into middle school, I met Joss Christensen and we started hanging out just as friends. He started showing me all these freeski movies with, you know, Tanner Hall, Jon Olsson, Simon Dumont. And I was like, what is this? I saw ski racing. I've seen moguls and aerials and I loved all that stuff, but this was the one that really clicked. It was artistic expression on skis. And I thought that was really cool.What role does Park City, Utah play in winter sport?I mean, this is the Mecca for that in my eyes. There's just so many kids out here learning how to do whatever winter sport they want and then having the facilities and the programs to push it as far as they want. And it's just a beautiful community.After the stunning 2011 season, what path did your career take?After winning those three events, X Games, World Championships, Dew Tour and then kind of stepping into that pro realm, big contracts started to come up and I kind of lost my drive to win. And I think that was my biggest problem. I hadn't really built the best work ethic. I had used a lot of natural talent my whole life, you know, and having overcome some of those injuries that really helped out. I didn't have to work as hard to get back, but it came to bite me after I did win, because I started to coast and I started partaking more in the party side of the sport. I was still doing okay. You know, I was able to stay top five, top ten, but I wasn't winning. And what it took for me to refocus was the announcement that the sport that we were getting into the Olympics for Sochi and I had a lot of ground to make up.In 2014, you missed that last spot on the Olympic team to your buddy Joss Christensen, who went on to win gold. It was a really beautiful yet bittersweet experience because Joss is one of the best people I've ever met in my life. He's incredible. I thought he was the best skier. He just couldn't put it down when it counted until that point. And he went and did it. So it was really cool. But behind the scenes, I was starting to struggle after that and watching him in the Olympics and my friends – it was like all that work I had just put in and I'd really changed my life quite a bit to make that happen and get that close. It shut off pretty quick and I started falling.You're a few years past rehab and drug court. How did it help you get your life back?It's life changing.They always say, you know, addiction is like a broken brain and that means a broken person. So, how do you rebuild that? I mean, it's like your best chance because you can't rebuild everything in a short period of time. So there's something really beautiful about the recovery process.What's the sickest ski run that you've ever taken in Utah? Tiger Tail at Snowbird – lapping that last winter. It was endless smiles and joy.There's plenty more from Ski Utah athlete ambassador Alex Schlopy! Buckle up for this episode of Last Chair as he takes us through the highs and lows of his career, finding sobriety and the sheer joy he feels today when he's up on the mountain all for himself.

Si svolge dall'8 all'11 novembre a Firenze la Winter School dal titolo "Il futuro degli studi sulla Riforma".L'iniziativa è stata organizzata dal Centro Culturale Protestante Pietro Martire Vermigli di Firenze, insieme al Dipartimento Sagas dell'Università di Firenze e ReRhis, Centro Interuniversitario di studi di storia della riforma protestante e dei movimenti religiosi.Il progetto è stato realizzato con il contributo dell'otto per mille Valdese.Debora Spini, presidente del Vermigli, spiega: "Lo scopo di questa Winter School è prima di tutto scientifico: quello di fare il punto sugli studi di storia della Riforma oggi, ci rivolgiamo in primo luogo alle discipline storiche. Abbiamo però scelto un metodo interattivo e partecipato, in cui giovani ricercatori e ricertatrici potranno presentare e raccontare le loro ricerche a maestri e maestre di grande livello e confrontarsi con loro".Si tratta quindi di un'importante occasione di incontro fra specialisti e giovani studiosi, ma anche l'opportunità di "piantare il seme della futura ricerca storica e filosofica sulla Riforma".In particolare ricordiamo la Tavola Rotonda aperta al pubblico dal titolo "Studiare la storia della Riforma, oggi", nell'Aula Magna dell'Istituto Gould, in via dei Serragli 49 che si svolgerà venerdì 10 novembre alle ore 17.Ascolta l'intervista completa.

Un modo per rilanciare l'attenzione su questi studi e invogliare le nuove generazioni a dedicarcisi. La Riforma è un fatto storico di grande valore, ma anche avuto esiti nella società di lunga durata".

The assassination of Trotsky in August 1940 dealt a devastating blow to the young and untested forces of the Fourth International. Unfortunately, the leaders of the Fourth were not up to the level of the tasks posed by history. Deprived of Trotsky's leadership they made a series of fundamental mistakes. Only the leadership of the RCP in Britain was able to readjust to the new situation on a world scale after 1945. This was the result of the theoretical capabilities of Ted Grant. His writings on economics, war, the colonial revolution, and particularly Stalinism, were, and still remain, classics of modern Marxism.

In the 1950s the Indonesian economy was failing, with the division between rich and poor increasing sharply. At the same time the PKI, the Communist Party of Indonesia, grew to the third largest Communist Party in the world, with three million paid members and the support of ten million trade unionists and organized peasants. Sadly this explosive combination ended in the massacre of 1 million communists in 1965. Indonesia is a graphic example of how mistakes in theory have dire consequences.

The question of how the US working class will create a party of its own—a class-independent, mass socialist party—has been a foremost concern of Marxists since the earliest beginnings of the movement, both in the US and around the world. Reactionaries have long pointed to the lack of a working-class party as an indication of “American exceptionalism” and the weakness of the class struggle in the land of McCarthy. Meanwhile, revolutionaries have tirelessly maintained that a mass workers' party is an objective historical step that must be achieved in order for the US working class to fight back effectively and reverse decades of lost ground in the class struggle. In this talk from the 2023 Montreal Marxist Winter School, Tom Trottier, editor of Socialist Revolution, discusses the struggle for a workers' party in the USA.

The history of Bolshevism has many vital lessons for today's revolutionaries – particularly regarding the origins of the revolutionary party that led the masses to victory in Russia. At the second congress of the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party in 1903, the famous split between the majority (Bolsheviks) and minority (Mensheviks) took place. Many myths and distortion surround this split. It is often wrongly alleged the Mensheviks stood for a ‘democratic' and ‘decentralized' party, in opposition to Lenin's ‘ultra-centralist' and ‘authoritarian' tendencies. In reality, this split on organizational questions was an anticipation of future political differences, which will lead the Mensheviks to betray the revolution. This talk was given by Fightback editor Alex Grant at the 2023 Montreal Marxist Winter School.

The debate over “Critical Race Theory” has come to dominate mainstream media headlines in the United States. It is provoking a frenzy among Republicans, and is sparking furious confrontations at school board meetings, daily segments on cable news programming, and a torrent of legislation to limit what teachers can and cannot say in the classroom. Some on the left may be tempted to counter the Republican offensive by coming to the defense of CRT, or accepting its characterization as the innocuous study of systemic racism. But Marxism is above all a science, and demands a rigorous approach when it comes to questions of theory—not merely an attitude of “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” So what does CRT represent for Marxists?

Haverhill Public School students soon begin winter break, and one organization is already thinking about enriching activities children can undertake then.Haverhill Promise, the grade level reading program, wants books involved. Program Director Jenny Arndt, a recent guest on WHAV's morning program, said she's hoping students from pre-kindergarten through third grade will continue reading during the time off.“Hopefully, children are going to be getting books for gifts. There might even be some great deals on books. You also have some great options, the library is going to be having some hours during that winter break and, of course, Ruth's House and other places that have low cost books. We are hoping that there will be lots of access to books and that families will just sit together and read,” she said.Arndt said they are just encouraging children and their families to read 20 minutes a day during the 10-day break.“More importantly, I think, than the academic piece of reading the words is that bonding time with a family member, or older sibling or a family sitting together and reading ‘The Night Before Christmas.' That helps solidify a joy of reading in our kids. That almost always starts at home and so we are really encouraging families to spend time reading during their school vacation,” she said.Arndt also says Haverhill Promise is planning programs for 2022 and seeks volunteers to help with the STEAM Literacy Program. STEAM stands for science, technology, engineering, art and math. Earlier this year, Haverhill Promise received a grant from Edwards Vacuum, a manufacturer that recently built a new center in Haverhill, that will be used to create literacy kits that include a book and a project.

It finally uprooted slavery and paved the way for the struggle of the working class to unfold on a gigantic scale. As Marx said at the time, “Labor in the white skin can never free itself as long as labor in the black skin is branded.” While this revolution was a tremendous step forward, it never realized its promise to Black people. In light of today's mass struggle against racism, it is important to return to one of the most pivotal events in this long fight.

While this movement of the Metis ultimately went down in defeat, it is important for Marxists to understand these events.

Maurizio Simoncelli"Terra di conquista"Ambiente e risorse tra conflitti e alleanzeCittà Nuova Edizioniwww.cittanuova.itPapa Francesco ha parlato di terza guerra mondiale a pezzi. Le tensioni internazionali nel XXI secolo infatti aumentano, mentre i cambiamenti climatici affliggono l'intero pianeta e i movimenti migratori diventano globali. Cosa sta succedendo e perché? Il libro, con un linguaggio chiaro e a volte ironico, cerca di offrire al lettore una chiave di lettura per comprendere una realtà complessa e difficile come quella contemporanea, indicando alcuni elementi geopolitici che spesso sono alla base delle tensioni e che condizionano i rapporti internazionali. Questioni e temi spesso ignorati o taciuti, che però servono per orizzontarsi in un mondo sempre più interconnesso. Dalle contese per i confini terrestri e marittimi a quelle per le risorse alimentari ed energetiche, dall'accaparramento di vaste zone nell'Africa per le monocolture alle lotte per l'acqua, l'autore ci aiuta a capire cosa sta avvenendo e perché, offrendoci uno strumento utile per definire le dinamiche del XXI secolo.Maurizio SimoncelliVicepresidente e cofondatore dell'Istituto di Ricerche Internazionali Archivio Disarmo (IRIAD).Storico ed esperto di geopolitica, oltre ad aver realizzato numerose ricerche sull'industria militare, sulle forze armate italiane e sulla geopolitica dei conflitti, presta attività di docenza in master universitari e corsi d'istruzione superiore.

You are listening to our school holiday bonus episode with Brigette Smith from Small Ideas.So if you live in Australia you will currently be in the middle of winter school holidays. School holidays is something that comes up a lot in my conversations because it can be a blessing and a curse for many small business owners. Many of us start our businesses so that we can be around for school holidays and I’ve loved hearing from many of my guests who deliberately take every holiday off or set strong boundaries during this time.I have to admit I’m not very good at this. A problem I’ve always had with my job in PR is that time management can be difficult as a lot of what I do it dependant on the media and their timeline which often doesn’t fit in with my own.I think Winter holidays can be tricky too as the weather isn’t the greatest and it is more important to be deliberate about scheduling specific activities in. This is why I’ve asked Brigette onto today’s show.Brigette Smith is passionate about families having fun and spending more quality time together.She is a part of Small Ideas which gives families fun on the go and big discounts to hundreds of activities across Melbourne and Sydney so families can do more together for less.Discounted activities include play centres, cinemas, attractions, animal farms, leisure centres, indoor activity centres and School Holiday camps plus heaps more.Visit smallideas.com.au for more information.

Sunscreens are not always toxic to marine organisms - they actually promote the growth of many species of micro algae that form the basis for all life in the sea. In insightLMU, biology student Helena Hager, who uncovered this surprising phenomenon, talks about her intriguing research project, which was funded by Lehre@LMU. For this university-wide program designed to develop novel ideas in tuition and studies, LMU has once again received generous Federal funding. • From the sea bottom to the summit of Mount Sinai: LMU professor Ronny Vollandt discusses the background to a succession of Arabic translations of texts from the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament, which began to appear in the 8th century - a little known phase in the dissemination of the Scriptures. • And from the South to the far North - to Tartu/Estonia, where students from all over Europe gathered for the very first Winter School in Finno-Ugric Studies as part of the new cooperative venture, entitled "Integrating Finno-Ugric Studies in Europe" (InFUSE), whose aim is to link students enrolled in this niche-subject throughout Europe. • And from northern Europe back to Munich, and two students who have come to LMU from embattled Syria: Samar Shammas was working on her thesis when her house in Damascus was hit by a bomb. Ahmad Al-Nabulsi was at dental school when he was imprisoned for joining a protest against the government. Both are now starting over again at LMU.

Den Menschen studieren heißt die Titelgeschichte in der neuen Ausgabe der MUM. Es geht um das Medizinstudium an der LMU, um die vielfältigen Angebote, um Studieninhalte und studentisches Engagement bei der Gestaltung dieser Inhalte. Auch mit Blick auf die späteren Berufsperspektiven bietet die Fakultät etwa Seminare, die Medizinstudierenden wichtiges Know-how für eine spätere Praxisgründung an die Hand geben. Ein LMU-Rechtsmediziner wird neuer Konservierungsbeauftragter des Südtiroler Archäologiemuseums in Bozen: Professor Oliver Puschel wird ab August dieses Jahres für Ötzi, die berühmte Gletschermumie aus den Ötztaler Alpen, zuständig sein, die Jahrtausende unter Schnee und Eis verborgen war. Er hofft, der Mumie weitere Geheimnisse zu entlocken. Es könnten sogar weitere Mumien mit dem weiteren Abschmelzen der Gletscher auftauchen, denn diese werden durch dem Klimawandel und die damit verbundene Erwärmung immer kleiner. Nur wenig Schnee zum Skifahren hatten auch die Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmer der 6th Munich Earth Science School (MESS) am Nudelfeld bei Bayrischzell: Bereits zum sechsten Mal trafen sich die Geowissenschaftler in dieser besonderen Winter School, um sich mit der Seismologie-Software OpsPy zu befassen - und Ski zu fahren. Eine Winter School fand auch im estnischen Tartu statt: Mit Finnougristik-Studenten aus München, Wien, Hamburg, Helsinki, Turku, Uppsala und Szeged. In Deutschland studieren insgesamt nur 180 junge Leute dieses Fach, das sich mit den Sprachen unter anderem der Finnen, Esten, Samen oder Ungarn befasst. Umso wichtiger ist der grenzüberschreitende Austausch für sie. Für seine Fotos von Eis- und Sandwüsten reist Michael Martin mit Eisbrechern, Hundeschlitten, Geländeautos, Skiern und Helikoptern um die Welt. Weder Wüstenstürme noch Temperaturen von unter 50 Grad in den Polargebieten konnten den LMU-Alumnus davon abhalten, für sein Projekt "Planet Wüste" vier Mal die Erde zu umrunden und 300.000 Bilder zu schießen.
