    DONNA DI PORTO PIM

    di Antonio Tabucchi
    con Roberto Herlitzka
    a cura di Teresa Pedroni
    musica dal vivo Isabella Mangani (voce) Felice Zaccheo (chitarra)
    aiuto regista: Elena Stabile
    assistente alla regia: Pamela Parafioriti

    Il mare è quello che ci mostra meglio l’orizzonte, quando noi viviamo nelle nostre case il filo dell’orizzonte è assente, sul mare lo vediamo meglio.
    Il piccolo libretto ‘Donna di Porto Pim’ compone una geografia di frammenti immaginari e insieme biografici «nati – dice l’autore – oltre che dalla sua disponibilità alla menzogna, da un periodo di tempo
    passato nelle isole Azzorre». Tra gli argomenti affrontati emergono fondamentalmente le balene, che più che animali si configurano come grandi metafore.

    Durante le difficili settimane del lockdown, Daniele Monterosi ha ideato il format ‘Daniele racconta’ per portare lo spettacolo sul WEB. Nato con l’obiettivo di alleggerire e riempire le giornate casalinghe del pubblico costretto ad un difficilissimo isolamento, il format, andato in onda in 35 puntate, ha accompagnato il pubblico durante tutto il periodo di quarantena, facendogli conoscere alcuni dei più grandi personaggi della nostra storia. Infatti, attraverso una narrazione con il solo filtro di una “webcam”, Monterosi ha raccontato le storie di Muhammad Alì, Albert Einstein, Coco Chanel, Toro Seduto, Nelson Mandela,
    Steve Jobs, Leonardo da Vinci, Frida Kahlo, Valentino Rossi, Bob Marley e tanti altri.

  17. #Lockdown in Northeast #Minneapolis - #NoKings events cancelled! The alleged assassin was wearing a police uniform!

    #Minnesota Rep. Hortman and husband killed, Sen. Hoffman and wife wounded in politically motivated shooting, Gov. Walz says

    by WCCO Staff

    Updated on: June 14, 2025 / 10:01 AM CDT / CBS Minnesota

    "Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz announced Saturday morning that state Rep. #MelissaHortman and her husband are dead, and state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife are wounded following a 'politically motivated' shooting overnight.

    Hortman and her husband were shot in Brooklyn Park, while Hoffman and his wife were shot in Champlin.

    At a Saturday morning press conference, Walz called the deaths of Hortman and her husband 'a political assassination.'

    "Hortman was someone who served the people of Minnesota with grace, compassion, humor, and a sense of service," Walz said. "She was a formidable public servant. A fixture and a giant in Minnesota."

    Walz said Hoffman and his wife were each shot multiple times.

    "We are cautiously optimistic they will survive this assassination attempt," Walz said.

    The governor highlighted how these acts of violence occurred following a special session where both sides compromised for the good of Minnesota.

    "We don't settle our differences with violence or at gunpoint," Walz said. "In the state of Minnesota, and as recently as last week, in the most closely divided state legislature in the country, we sat down, shook hands and compromised, and we served the state of Minnesota together. It's possible in politically charged times to find compromise, democracy and civil discourse. I, Minnesota and across the country, stand against all forms of political violence."

    Additional information on a suspected shooter or shooters was not immediately available. WCCO has confirmed that ATF agents responded to the situation and are participating in the manhunt.

    Legislators were alerted this morning and those in the metro area were told to take extra safety precautions. The executive director of the Minnesota Sheriff's Association, in a Facebook post, said that "an evil coward dressed as a protector, went to the homes of two Minnesota elected officials and shot them."

    Minnesota police agencies and the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension are currently leading the investigation, officials report.

    CBS News has also reached out to the FBI and other agencies for comment.

    Hortman represented Minnesota House District 34B, and Hoffman Minnesota Senate District 34.

    Organizers for the planned "No Kings" protest in Northeast Minneapolis said the event would be canceled due to the shootings and shelter-in-place.

    "Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, and the communities impacted by this violence," organizers said. "Some events in other parts of the greater Minneapolis area are still moving forward at this time, and we are actively monitoring the situation."

    This story will be updated."

  20. New paper just published.

    When a pandemic occurs, a hard lockdown is an obvious and effective way to stop it. However, lockdowns come with serious societal issues. For example, during COVID-19, a critical mass of people opposing lockdowns coalesced in Britain. This was mainly due to two demographic groups, namely self-employed people, who were concerned about their own economic losses, and parents, who dreaded the prospect of having to be closed in the same home with their own kids. Seeking validation and trying to promote their own personal interests, these people became main spreaders of disinformation, eventually falling prey of state-sponsored populistic and anti-science propaganda machines.

    In this study, we show that one can use optimization and control theory to introduce only light travel restrictions between macroareas, such as states or regions within a country, yielding better final results in terms of infections and economic damage than those that were actually obtained at the time.

  25. More bomb threats hit Springfield, Ohio, after Trump elevates false claims about Haitians

    Hospitals were sent into lockdown, government buildings shut down and local schools evacuated

    Two hospitals in #Springfield, Ohio, were sent into #lockdown after #bomb #threats, police said on Saturday,
    marking ♦️the fourth such case in as many days that appears ♦️linked to false claims circulating among the far right that Haitian #immigrants there are #eating domestic #pets and wildlife.

    Saturday’s threats came 🔸even after the woman who started the rumors acknowledged to NBC News that they were #unfounded and publicly apologized.🔸

    #Kettering Health Springfield was one of the medical facilities targeted, with officials later saying they found nothing suspicious during a search. Another hospital, #Mercy Health’s Springfield regional medical center, received a similar threat.

    A spokesperson with Mercy Health said the hospital had continued to operate and thanked Springfield police as well as hospital staff “for their swift, efficient and caring response”.

    The bomb threats on Saturday came after others had been called in to #government #buildings Thursday, forcing their closure and causing local #schools to be #evacuated.
    “We recognize that the past few days have been particularly challenging for everyone in our community,” Springfield police said in a statement. Police added “we remain fully committed to ensuring the safety and wellbeing of each and every person”.

    On Friday, a Springfield woman,
    👉#Erika #Lee, #apologized for rumors about Haitian immigrants eating pets that resulted from a post she wrote on Facebook claiming that the friend of a neighbor’s daughter lost her cat – and then found the animal strung up outside the home of a Haitian family.

    🔸Lee now says she had no firsthand knowledge of the claim. The neighbor referenced in the post, Kimberly Newton, revealed that she also had heard the story from an acquaintance and not her daughter.
    Lee said she was filled with regret and insists she never intended to put a target on the backs of the Haitian community.

    “It just exploded into something I didn’t mean to happen,” Lee told NBC News on Friday.
    ❇️Local authorities in Springfield had already debunked the lies even 🔸before #Donald #Trump made the allegation that Haitian immigrants were eating pets during the debate with Kamala Harris on Tuesday.
    Lee told the outlet she never imagined her social media post would become fodder for #conspiracy #theories and #hate aimed at the Haitian community in Springfield.
