RADIO ARC 101:“EDICOLE, “RAZZE IN ESTINZIONE” COME I BAR: SOLDI PERSI E SPERANZE DA STANFORD” by NANDO SILVESTRI SOURCE: https://radioarc.it/edicole-razze-in-estinzione-come-i-bar-soldi-persi-e-speranze-da-stanford/ Le edicole sono un altro scrigno di umanità e conoscenza per molti versi simili ai bar, almeno per quanto concerne l’infausto epilogo che riguarda molte di esse. L’odore di carta stampata, di cartoncini colorati, copertine variopinte, buste a sorpresa e cellophane, era una melassa olfattiva che un tempo inebriava grandi e piccini e rappresentava, al contempo un’ ambita meta di passeggiate e pause giornaliere. Passare per l’edicola significava attingere alla conoscenza, allo svago, alla cultura, alla fantasia e alla creatività. Tutte prerogative perse a causa dei surrogati informi e amorfi diffusi dal web. E’ questo il motivo principale della chiusura cunulata e ricorrente di moltissime edicole italiane: in economia si parla di comparto a caduta della domanda. Ma non chiude solo un’edicola, chiude un pezzo di economia locale e nazionale. Da 35000 edicole nel 2005 a circa 20000 nel 2024: -43%. Con loro se ne va un fatturato diretto di oltre 400 milioni l’anno, ma il vero buco è l’indotto che non si calcola mai. Ogni edicola media in un paese generava distribuzione per 15000€/anno di margini per distributori locali, corrieri, tipografie. Inoltre, il cliente che comprava il giornale prendeva il caffè, il biglietto del pullman, la schedina. Write on Medium Si deve pensare che senza edicola, il cinema di paese perde il suo unico punto promo fisico, senza parlare delle perdite in materia di pubblicità. Quando chiude, non perde solo l’edicolante. Perde il bar, perde l’autista, perde il tipografo. In Irpinia negli ultimi 5 anni Avellino ha perso 6 edicole, Ariano Irpino 3, Sant’Angelo dei Lombardi 2. La perdita totale in Irpinia ammonta a circa il 22% di punti vendita. Tutto ciò significa che molte delle chiusure succitate hanno sottratto ai bar irpini diverse decine di clienti danneggiando lavoratori, distributori e fornitori. Sono posti di lavoro che non fanno notizia, ma esistono. Un altro duro colpo inferto all’economia locale e nazionale in nome di un finto progresso che favorisce quasi sempre gli affari dei faccendieri e dei soliti noti. Tuttavia, ciò che accade in Puglia, a pochi chilometri dall’Irpinia, apre scenari di rinnovamento basati proprio sulla riconversione delle edicole dismesse. Si tratta di prospettive talmente uniche ed innovative da aver suscitato l’interesse di tutto il mondo, in special modo dell’Università di Stanford. Si tratta di notizie di enorme portata che pochi notiziari hanno divulgato in nome di una perenne prelazione delle tecnologie sprezzanti di buonsenso, tradizioni e arte. A San Severo (Foggia), a 40 km dall’Alta Irpinia un’edicola abbandonata da 6 anni in via Matteo Tondi è diventata il 27 marzo 2026 il Teatro-Edicola Foyer’97: 6 sedie, 4mq, idea di Francesco Gavino. Gli apprezzati spettacoli di 10/15 minuti hanno incuriosito l’università di Stanford. La sua rivista accademica Stanford Social Innovation Review (SSIR), ha scelto il Teatro Edicola di San Severo come caso di studio internazionale con il reportage “The Six-Seat Revolution”. Perché Stanford ci guarda? Perché ha capito che quei 4 mq possono tornare a generare indotto. Difatti, 60 spettatori in un pomeriggio possono diventare 60 caffè al bar vicino. Con un biglietto simbolico di 5€ si parla di micro economia culturale. Senza contare l’indotto di turisti e giornalisti che arrivano e frequentano B&B e ristoranti. È il modello che serve all’Irpinia: non lasciare il buco, ma riconvertirlo virtuosamente. Ogni edicola chiusa può diventare info-point, micro-cine, box servizi. Altrimenti continuiamo a contare solo le saracinesche abbassate, senza contare i soldi che non girano più.

RADIO ARC 101:“NEWSSTANDS, ‘ENDANGERED SPECIES’ LIKE CAFÉS: MONEY LOST AND HOPES FROM STANFORD” by NANDO SILVESTRI SOURCE: https://radioarc.it/edicole-razze-in-estinzione-come-i-bar-soldi-persi-e-speranze-da-stanford/ Newsstands are another repository of humanity and knowledge, in many respects similar to cafés, at least as far as the unfortunate fate that has befallen many of them is concerned. The smell of printed paper, coloured card, variegated covers, surprise packets and cellophane was an olfactory molasses that once intoxicated young and old alike and represented, at the same time, a sought-after destination for daily walks and pauses. Stopping by the newsstand meant drawing upon knowledge, entertainment, culture, imagination and creativity. All prerogatives lost on account of the shapeless and amorphous surrogates disseminated by the web. This is the principal reason for the cumulative and recurring closure of a great many Italian newsstands: in economics, one speaks of a sector in demand collapse. But it is not merely a newsstand that closes; a piece of the local and national economy closes with it. From 35,000 newsstands in 2005 to about 20,000 in 2024: -43%. With them goes direct turnover of over €400 million per year, but the real hole is the indirect economy that is never calculated. Each average newsstand in a small town generated distribution worth €15,000 per year in margins for local distributors, couriers, and printers. Moreover, the customer who bought the newspaper would have a coffee, buy a bus ticket, place a bet. Download the Medium App One must consider that without a newsstand, the village cinema loses its only physical promotional outlet, not to mention the losses in terms of advertising. When it closes, it is not only the newsagent who loses. The café loses, the driver loses, the printer loses. In Irpinia, over the last five years, Avellino has lost six newsstands, Ariano Irpino three, Sant’Angelo dei Lombardi two. The total loss in Irpinia amounts to about 22% of outlets. All this means that many of the closures mentioned above have deprived Irpinian cafés of several dozen customers, harming workers, distributors and suppliers. These are jobs that do not make the news, but they exist. Another hard blow inflicted upon the local and national economy in the name of a false progress that almost always favours the business of fixers and the usual suspects. However, what is happening in Puglia, a few kilometres from Irpinia, opens up scenarios of renewal based precisely upon the reconversion of disused newsstands. These are prospects so unique and innovative as to have aroused interest worldwide, especially at Stanford University. This is news of enormous significance that few news programmes have disseminated, in the name of a perennial pre-emption by technologies contemptuous of common sense, tradition and art. In San Severo, 40 km from Upper Irpinia, a newsstand abandoned for six years in Via Matteo Tondi became, on 27 March 2026, the Teatro-Edicola Foyer’97: six chairs, four square metres, an idea by Francesco Gavino. The well-received 10- to 15-minute shows have piqued the curiosity of Stanford University. Its academic journal, the Stanford Social Innovation Review [SSIR], has chosen the Teatro Edicola in San Severo as an international case study with the reportage “The Six-Seat Revolution”. Why is Stanford watching us? Because it has realised that those four square metres can once again generate indirect economic activity. Indeed, 60 spectators in an afternoon can become 60 coffees at the neighbouring café. With a symbolic ticket price of €5, we are talking about a cultural micro-economy. Not to mention the indirect income from tourists and journalists who arrive and frequent B&Bs and restaurants. It is the model Irpinia needs: not to leave the void, but to reconvert it virtuously. Every closed newsstand can become an information point, a micro-cinema, a service hub. Otherwise we shall continue to count only the lowered shutters, without counting the money that no longer circulates.

Julio Schneider stated that Manaus woke up covered in smoke and with the worst air quality in Brazil, according to his post, while the Civil Defense alerted the population to avoid going outside. He said that the Fire Department requested aircraft to combat the fires in Amazonas, but that the Lula government denied the request. Schneider also questioned the absence of statements from Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Daniela Mercury, Nando Reis, Arnaldo Antunes, Milton Bituca, Anavitória, Exu do Blues, Céu, Criolo, Gaby Amarantos, Duda Beat, Péricles, Vitão, and Xande de Pilares, whom he associated with campaigns in defense of the Amazon. #Amazônia #Queimadas #MudançasClimáticas (translated)

Ironically, VÁ labeled it scandalous that President Pavel flew in a plane for which he paid for his trip. He contrasted this with Zeman's free flight with PPF and pointed out that the people he referred to derogatorily enthusiastically approved of Zeman's trip at that time. He added that this was life according to him. #politika #prezident #skandál (translated)

UpdateCharts shared criticisms from NandaTsunami of Deputy Eduarda Campopiano. NandaTsunami stated that Campopiano would spend the next few years receiving public money without having presented any proposals and accused her of positioning herself against feminism and transgender people. She also speculated about the deputy's self-esteem and said that she sought validation and male attention, using a disparaging description of her youth. #Feminismo #DireitosHumanos #Política (translated)

André Guedes attributed what he considered to be the poor performance of the Mission to six factors, stating that five were true and one was false, without revealing which. He stated that a reduction in the reach of social media algorithms by the TSE would have harmed lesser-known candidates, keeping them confined to their own bubbles. He also said that Lula and Flávio polarized the dispute, and by avoiding debates, left Renan Santos speaking mainly to his supporters. According to Guedes, presidential candidates used to boost votes for parliamentarians, and less exposure reduced this conversion. Guedes also claimed that MBL did not have access to campaign dissemination in WhatsApp groups because it did not get close to the captain, while former members who did would have fared well. He also mentioned fewer financial resources and the lack of television time as factors. In his assessment, Renan Santos should leave MBL and join the Mission party, as the discourse to oust a president would be different from that necessary to be elected. Finally, he said that Nando Moura had made people aware of issues related to The Phallic Man and the black water tank, stating that the poor performance would be a consequence of that. #Política #Eleições2023 #Missão (translated)

André Guedes assessed that the Mission had a weak performance and presented six possible reasons, stating that five were true and one was false. According to him, changes in social media algorithms would have reduced the reach of lesser-known candidates, keeping them restricted to their own bubbles. Guedes also wrote that Lula and Flávio polarized the dispute and avoided debates, which would have left Renan Santos speaking only to his supporters. He stated that presidential candidates usually helped to elect lawmakers and that less exposure resulted in fewer votes transferred. In the author's assessment, the MBL did not manage to circulate content in WhatsApp groups favorable to Bolsonaro because it did not flatter the "captain"; former MBL members who did so, he wrote, fared well. Guedes also pointed to fewer resources and a lack of television time as factors. He said that Renan Santos should leave the MBL and join the Mission party, arguing that the discourse to take down a president would be different from that necessary to be elected president. Finally, he attributed to Nando Moura the effect of leading people to clash with "The Phallic Man" and the black water tank, which he called a consequence of what happened. #Política #Eleições2023 #Missão (translated)

UpdateCharts reported that NandaTsunami stated she would vote for Lula and Erika Hilton, with numbers 13 and 5070. According to the publication, she advocated for political participation to continue beyond the electoral period, with collective organization, oversight of those elected, and involvement in the communities. NandaTsunami also argued that a lack of hope for change could reduce public participation and favor the continuation of power in the hands of privileged groups. #Política #VotoConsciente #ParticipaçãoCidadã (translated)

Chief affirmed that MBL had taken legal action against the podcast 3 Irmãos in an attempt to prevent Nando Moura from participating. He said he felt relieved believing that the critics he called censors wouldn't come to power and stated that, in this scenario, they would make people miss the PT. #LiberdadeDeExpressão #Censura #Política (translated)

Nando Moura was so humiliated yesterday that a lot of lies went unnoticed. He said that Viny didn’t know his mother. In the video where he was beaten by Engineer Léo, Nando's mother and Viny were present. 🤣 #NandoMoura #EngenheiroLéo #humor (translated)

Pep Guardiola dio positivo en nandrolona (sustancia dopante) cuando era jugador de fútbol. De entrenador ha estado en el Barça, City y Bayern. En dos de esos clubes (mientras el dirigía) hemos podido ver casos de corrupción. Gravísimos. Diría que los más graves de las respectivas ligas. Tenemos el caso 'Negreira' en España donde el vicepresidente de los arbitros recibía dinero del Barça y en el caso del City inflaron contratos para meter de manera ilegal 1000 en sus arcas. Sus etapas futbolisticas fueron increíbles pero ¿tienen el mismo valor que los demás equipos que no hicieron TRAMPAS? ¿Por que Josep Guardiola no es considerado como fraude? Cualquier otro entrenador lo sería. Todo lo que ha disputado (menos su etapa en el Bayern) está MANCHADO. #Fútbol #Corrupción #Dopaje
