It is larger than initially designed, so I would like to thank the minister for his willingness to adjust it. The head of the coalition of Motorists, Petr Macinka, described the law as the first step in the direction the coalition would like to take. #asistentiPedagoga #inkluse #školství (translated)
When we stop calling things by their name, when we accept a language that hides the pain, we start to lose our humanity. This is the underlying message of Guardiola's appeal, which says: "When we stop calling things by their name, when we accept a language that hides the pain, we start to lose our humanity." #Gaza #Palestina #UNRWA (translated)
Matej Rigelnik wrote that the Ministry of Finance and the government should fundamentally change individual investment accounts, according to Smrečica at Finance. He described the proposal to raise their limit to 300,000 euros and remove investment restrictions as a step in the right direction and more than just good financial news. Rigelnik stated that wealth is connected to independence, dignity, and the ability to decide about one's own future. According to him, people should have the opportunity to become economically free as well. #FinančnaSvoboda #Investicije #DružbenaSprememba (translated)

The conductor wrote that for the first time he felt concern that Ukraine would lose the war. He described Donald Trump's recent actions as a betrayal of Europe and the Western democratic world. He accused Trump of colluding with Vladimir Putin, whom he compared to Hitler, and of blaming Volodymyr Zelensky for problems including expensive diesel. According to the conductor, Trump was trying to cover up his own mistake in Iran. He stated that Putin wanted to involve Chinese President Xi Jinping in peace talks regarding Ukraine. He said the negotiations were only labeled as peaceful because Putin's demands would lead to Ukraine's capitulation. He compared Trump to "second fiddle" and wrote that Zelensky admitted Ukraine would not be able to win or even hold out without U.S. support if Washington sided with Russia. The conductor also noted that the Italian defense minister warned about the Russian army's strength of 1.5 million soldiers and that due to its financing from the Russian budget, the war cannot be immediately stopped. He attributed the Kremlin's lack of interest in a ceasefire. He accused the U.S. Secretary of Defense of mocking allied soldiers in Afghanistan, including the fallen, and labeled his actions as an insult. He criticized Europe for its silence and wrote that it seems to him that its representatives are afraid of both Putin and Trump. At the same time, he questioned whether they were waiting for Trump to take a break and change his mind again. #Ukrajina #Putin #Trump (translated)

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.

The agreement on the supply of diesel between Russia and the USA, which will allow a portion of supplies to be directed to Turkey, has drawn criticism from European leaders and American lawmakers, with Ukrainian President Zelensky warning about its potential to strengthen Russian aggression. #nafta #Trump #Rusko (translated)
Europe needs to consider a No Fly Zone over Ukraine this winter. The chances of russia accepting it and focusing on the frontline are higher than the danger of it picking a fight w NATO. Not doing it out of fear means Ru sabotage and strikes on Europe will keep escalating because russia smells fear.
The Archimandrite argued that the subversive actions were not the work of a few violent individuals, but were organized and planned, with defined weapons, timing, roles, and objectives, to destabilize the democratic order. He criticized the left for belittling them and recalled Landini's words, asking if they remembered when he had incited social rebellion. #Democrazia #Sicurezza #Politica (translated)
Ivan noted that RTV Slovenia, if the information is true, should not conduct debates, as it is said to be biased. He expected a public statement from the management of RTV Slovenia. #RTV #Slovenija #pristranskost (translated)
For Jewish Americans, democratic pluralism and rejection of dual loyalty smears is much more valuable than support for a foreign country. Defender of American pluralism and critic of Israel Abdul El-Sayed is much better for American Jews than Christian nationalists would be. And it isn’t close.
In August, after a Russian bombing that also hit a pediatric hospital in Ukraine, Ivan Korčok, head of foreign policy for Progressive Slovakia (the main opposition party, liberal and pro-European), asked Fico if he had called Putin to tell him to stop bombing civilians, and if not, what the purpose of his good relationship with Russia was. #RobertFico #Russia #UnioneEuropea (translated)
Marmitta wrote that the revolution should not align politically and that the events in Europe, in his opinion, fed divisions that were useful to power. He argued that a true revolution would occur when law enforcement stopped defending a corrupt power and fought alongside the people. #Rivoluzione #Unità #Giustizia (translated)
The author wrote that a memorandum from the State Attorney’s Office, filed with the Council of State to defend the Customs Agency, indicated Italy's involvement in a "fragmented and hybrid world war," despite the government having denied it in Parliament. #Giustizia #Governo #Politica #IT (translated)
FuiBionda had written that a hungry, robbed, mocked, and beaten people could become violent. He added that the presence of infiltrators was a common practice, but he criticized those who dismissed the violence of the oppressed as the work of a few, arguing that it should have involved a thousand people. #Giustizia #Resistenza #DirittiUmani (translated)
Sander Sassen expressed sharp criticism of Amnesty Netherlands. He stated that the issue was not about textbooks and that the images spoke for themselves. He also accused the organization of being part of an offensive against the West for some time and referred to the slogan 'Free Palestine.' https://t.co/IljeFxn9Zc #FreePalestine #Amnesty #Politiek (translated)
The Ministry of Education's website has stopped publishing essential reports on the educational system, replacing them with triumphant press releases that hide crucial data and make it difficult to verify the state of education in Italy. #Scuola #Istruzione #Trasparenza (translated)
