Da più di un secolo i periodici Usa intrattengono i lettori con rubriche divertenti di aneddoti sui vip: li inventano agenzie che forniscono materiali ai columnist di gossip faceti. Nel caso sentiste il bisogno di ritrovare un po’ di buonumore in questi tempi cupi del cazzo con aneddoti gustosi redatti alla maniera americana, eccovi serviti.
Quando il film di Blake Edwards Colazione da Tiffany (1961) lanciò la moda del lungo bocchino nero facendolo sfoggiare alla sofisticata Holly Golightly,

Dal primo sciopero di Greta Thunberg nel 2018 ad oggi, la protesta climatica e l’attivismo climatico sono stati, o sono stati visti, come una lotta isolata, relativa unicamente alla questione del riscaldamento globale e all’aumento delle emissioni di gas serra. Un isolamento che non ha granché giovato alla causa climatica, spesso sentita come lontana, astratta teorica. In realtà, i Fridays For Future hanno sempre manifestato una spiccata sensibilità sociale e hanno sempre parlato di giust

In Italia è necessario unire le lotte in attuazione dei diritti. Dal caro vita, alle bollette, dalla benzina e il gasolio, ai prezzi al consumo, dallo sfruttamento del lavoro, alla giustizia negata, dalle guerre e ai genocidi, ai cambiamenti climatici e ai disastri ambientali, per non parlare di sanità e formazione pubblica. Una violenza politica, economica ed istituzionale devastante contro i diritti. È necessario costruire un fronte popolare che metta insieme le energie delle persone per at

Nessun governo di qualunque segno politico, sotto qualsiasi cielo, teme più delle proteste di piazza. Quando il popolo butta a mare la rassegnazione ad accettare l’inaccettabile, bisogna prepararsi a qualcosa che nessun potere costituito, legittimo o no, può essere certo di controllare.
In Francia centinaia di migliaia di studenti scendono in strada contro il presidente della repubblica Macron e il suo governo minoritario per reclamare ciò che dovrebbe essere la normalità: che la scuola fr

Mike Babcock isn’t one to mince words.
What a big secret I just let slip, just for fun!
Seriously, though, we all know this guy's reputation. We know he's always been pretty tough on his players, and that's not going to change in Edmonton.
Basically, Babcock threw Jake Walman under the bus by saying he's always out of position. And it's pretty simple: to get his point across, Babcock decided to bench his defenseman tonight, as the Oilers host the Flames at home.
But there's still something rat

In a groundbreaking initiative, the UK plans to unveil a pioneering spacecraft in 2029, designed specifically for the cleanup of space debris. Utilizing advanced robotic arms, the mission aims to snatch up and incinerate inactive satellites, tackling the escalating issue of orbital pollution that threatens current satellite operations. A nationwide competition to name the spacecraft is in progress, underscoring the project's significance in fostering sustainable space practices.

The removal of the Great Works and Veazie dams has paved the way for essential fish migration pathways once again. As a result, the population of river herring has surged from just 556 to over 5 million.

Residents of Tungkillo, South Australia, are concerned about a proposed data centre that could disrupt their dark-sky reserve. The development may introduce light and noise pollution that affects the rural landscape. Community members believe preserving their unique nighttime environment is crucial for stargazing and natural experiences. The project's economic benefits are being weighed against potential environmental impacts. Ongoing discussions will determine the future of digital infrastructu

A rock found on Goodenough Island indicates an unexpected thermal gradient change during its descent deep within Earth's crust. Researchers estimated that this rock traveled over 90 kilometres into a subduction zone about 4.4 million years ago. Initial warm conditions shifted to a cold thermal regime as it descended further into the Earth. Both shearing stress and the youth of the subduction zone may explain this temperature change.

Het Openbaar Ministerie (OM) wil de beloning voor de gouden tip over Bolle Jos mogelijk verhogen naar minimaal twee miljoen euro. Dat is tien keer zoveel als nu. Met het enorme bedrag hopen politie en justitie vooral mensen in West-Afrika over te halen informatie te delen over de voortvluchtige drugscrimineel. Dat meldt De Telegraaf.De hogere beloning zou volgens de krant volgende week al kunnen ingaan. Het zou gaan om het hoogste tipgeld ooit in de Nederlandse misdaadgeschiedenis, schrijft De T

The NFL imposes strict limits on its players regarding companies associated with sports betting and prediction markets.Saquon Barkley, a star player for the Philadelphia Eagles, says he had to divest his financial interest in Polymarket to comply with league regulations.
In an interview with Front Office Sports, the running back explained that NFL players are no longer allowed to invest in or promote prediction market platforms. Barkley had previously held a stake in the company, but such involv

Vergezeld door twee vriendinnen loopt Odette uit Oisterwijk met dichtgeknepen neus door de Lange Hezelstraat in Nijmegen. Een stank die doet denken aan een mix van stront en braaksel vergalt voor menigeen het shopplezier op ’s lands oudste winkelpromenade. De oorzaak? Geen wildpoepers of overgevende cafégasten, maar een Japanse ’meisjesboom’ waarvan ooit de mannelijke variant werd besteld.

A quattro anni dalla scadenza dell’Agenda 2030, non solo l’Italia è in netto ritardo rispetto agli Obiettivi di sviluppo sostenibile (SDGs), ma nel 2025 sei dei 17 Obiettivi Onu peggiorano. E appare non raggiungibile il 58% dei target quantitativi fissati al 2030 (tra i 38 analizzati) per i vari goal. Un ritardo che si riflette sulla vita delle persone: oltre 5,4 milioni in povertà assoluta, il 94,5% dei Comuni a rischio idrogeologico e quasi un giovane su cinque con disagio psicologico. I
