Mari argued that the news broadcasts had presented the protests of the truck drivers as an example of rigor, contrasting them with what happened in Milan, to strengthen a political narrative rather than to tell the difficulties of Southern Italy. #Proteste #SudItalia #Propaganda (translated)

The author wrote that, in his opinion, a man showed his maturity by respecting a woman who no longer wanted to be with him, instead of trying to portray her as a bad person.

"With an uncovered face, wounded, without retreating. In front of him, those who hide behind a hood to strike and destroy - the Prime Minister wrote - The State is not an abstract concept. It is made up of people who, with courage and a sense of duty, stay in their place when others choose violence. Today, a meeting on public order was called at Palazzo Chigi, to assess the situation and consider further tools against those who exploit legitimate demonstrations to sow violence and chaos. Meloni emphasized that the State is not just an abstract institution, but is concretely represented by the people who, with courage and responsibility, continue to perform their duties even in the most difficult situations." #Polizia #Sicurezza #Milano (translated)

There is the concept of energy strategy in a broad sense, balancing between those who do not want to retreat from the Green transition and the push from those, like Giorgia Meloni, who increasingly insist on a brake, or in any case exceptions, to European policies on renewables. #Ets #TransizioneGreen #PoliticheEuropee (translated)

Marco Setaccioli wrote that he considered Giorgia Meloni's positions on many issues to be unheeded, but recognized her courage and foresight for speaking of a "just peace" in Ukraine. According to him, in Italy the concept was unpopular because the country, having not had to come to terms with its own history, had become selfish. After listening to the speech, he wondered whether Elly Schlein, if elected to lead the country, would be able to deliver a similar one. Regarding Giuseppe Conte, he added that it was already known what he would say. #Ucraina #Pace #Politica (translated)

The author argued that the concept of a nuclear war triggered without human intervention, present in Stanley Kubrick's film *Dr. Strangelove*, preceded artificial intelligence by a long time and was not a product of fiction. He traced the idea back to the military work of Herman Kahn, described as a hawk from RAND. #HermanKahn #IlDottorStranamore #StanleyKubrick #GuerraNucleare #IT (translated)

In practice, Blume, without stating it openly, wants a point of synthesis with Stellantis and Renault, and practically relaunches the concept of an automotive Airbus that Luca de Meo wanted when he was CEO of Renault, which did not materialize, also due to the restrictions imposed by Volkswagen. However, now the German group, facing a crisis including job losses, has decided on a different strategy and to stake everything on the rebirth of the European automotive industry. #Volkswagen #AutoElettriche #SovranitàTecnologica (translated)

Federico Albano wrote that at the Singapore GP, a new phase of dominance for Max Verstappen and Red Bull had begun. According to him, the RB22 had become more predictable after stabilizing its aerodynamics, and Verstappen had continued to perform at his best. Albano attributed the competitiveness of the car also to the low-end power of the RB-Ford PU, low drag, and the Dutch driver's tire management. Albano considered Ferrari's weekend positive, stating that they were only second to Verstappen. He wrote that Charles Leclerc had almost overtaken the Dutchman at the start, but the Ferrari had bounced after going off the curb at the pit lane exit, causing him to lose the necessary margin for a more decisive attack. According to Albano, the rear-limited characteristics of the circuit highlighted the weakness of the SF26's rear, explaining both the extreme setup chosen for Leclerc in the Sprint and the difficulties in preserving the tires during the race. He added that the updates expected for Austin would indicate the direction Ferrari was taking. Regarding Lewis Hamilton, Albano wrote that the driver could have achieved third place with a double pit stop, but chose to stay on track, perhaps to attempt to overtake Leclerc. He praised his apologies and described the potential double podium for Ferrari as a missed opportunity, which would have brought points in the Constructors' Championship; he also noted that Hamilton had finished sixth after a weekend where, in his opinion, he had been in great form. Albano also congratulated Kimi Antonelli for the podium and criticized Lando Norris's lack of responsiveness. However, he argued that Mercedes still had a weak front end and that, despite the characteristics of the circuit and the updated PU, they had only achieved the result of the third force. He concluded by indicating Austin as an important appointment for Mercedes and Ferrari, while Verstappen, according to him, would continue to aim for dominance in the final phase of the season. #Formula1 #SingaporeGP #Verstappen (translated)

Steven Cercamondi wrote that Margaret Hamilton, whom he referred to as the "woman of the Moon," had passed away at the age of 90. He described a photograph in which Hamilton appeared next to the lists of software developed by the team she led for the lunar module and the command module of the Apollo 11 mission. According to Cercamondi, that software managed critical functions such as flight control, navigation, data, communications, and safety, and was designed to handle emergencies and failures by providing real-time feedback to the astronauts. He also credited Hamilton with introducing an error management approach based on "interrupts," which allowed for timely detection and management of problems. He wrote that the team's code had provided the foundations for the safe operation of space missions and concluded with a message of condolence. #MargaretHamilton #NASA #Apollo11 (translated)

CIVICO 33 - "ORTA NOVA SOUND LAB": FROM CAPITANATA TO "BROADWAY WORLD", THE "COMMUNITY BAND" PROJECT CONQUERS NEW YORK The social laboratory promoted by ANBG and the Ministry of Culture lands on the largest theatrical network in the world thanks to the article co-written by Chris Rabinowitz and the Orthese author Luciano Magaldi Sardella. There is a brass thread connecting Piazza Mario Frasca to Broadway. "Orta Nova Sound Lab" is the Community and Social Regeneration Band through Music, the project officially presented on September 21 at the C-Lab MAO FM 19.77 by brothers Luca and Erminio Ferrandina, which is experiencing unprecedented media attention for a band initiative born in the province of Foggia. The journalistic success is marked by its appearance on September 28 in Broadway World, the most authoritative global portal dedicated to theater and live performance, based in New York with over 1.5 million monthly global visits. This is not an insignificant result, projecting a story from the Apulian periphery into the realm of international cultural information. The article, titled "Orta Nova Sound Lab Launches Youth Community Band in Southern Italy," is co-authored by New York editor Chris Rabinowitz, a journalist for the American publication, and his Italian co-author Luciano Magaldi Sardella, an international author originally from Orta Nova, an engineer, academic journalist, and researcher active between Italy and abroad. The dual Italian-American signature symbolizes how a "good local practice" can become global news when told with expertise and roots. The Project: the Band as Social Regeneration "Orta Nova Sound Lab" is promoted by the National Association of Marching Bands (ANBG), chaired by Benedetto Grillo, and has been approved for funding under the public notice of the Ministry of Culture as per D.D.G. April 7, 2026, rep. n. 149, aimed at "Enhancing research and dissemination of musical practices in peripheral and areas of high social vulnerability." It is realized with the support of the Municipality of Orta Nova and with the collaboration of a solid civic network: the A.P.S. MAO FM 19.77, the "A. Olivetti" Higher Education Institute, the "Sandro Pertini" Comprehensive Institute, the Music Art association, and the C.I.S.A. of Foggia. As highlighted by "Broadway World," this is the first initiative in Italy to reinterpret the distinctive tradition of marching bands and youth orchestras within a ministry grant dedicated to urban peripheries and social vulnerability. A model that explicitly dialogues with the spirit of the so-called "Caivano Decree" (D.L. 123/2023) for combating youth discomfort, educational poverty, and juvenile delinquency. The idea, in its disarming simplicity, was summarized by the project director for ANBG, Antonella Spagnoletti: "The band is aggregation! The band is cohesion. Bringing these kids together to learn and live differently from the social world is among the primary objectives of our association." This concept was reiterated by the Mayor of Orta Nova, Ing. Domenico Di Vito: "This is an important project that can definitely make a difference compared to the past because it has all the ingredients to connect the entire world of culture and social issues that exists in Orta Nova and needs to be valued. The administration's commitment is to ensure sustainability, structure, and continuity over time." At the press conference presentation, moderated by journalist Giuseppe Di Bisceglie, participated alongside President Grillo, Director Spagnoletti, and Mayor Di Vito, Regional Councillor Grazia Maria Starace, Councillor for relationships with the third sector Sebastiano Battista, Councillor for Culture Vittoria Mastrogiacomo, and educational professor Alfredo Coppola, delegate of the Olivetti Institute. Why the News Became International The "Orta Nova Sound Lab" marching band project demonstrates that when a project has anti-mafia roots, pedagogical value, and a credible institutional network, the press responds. From local and national outlets like Cassa Armonica, Ansa Puglia, TGNorba, Corriere della Sera Bari, RaiNews TGR Puglia, La Gazzetta del Mezzogiorno, Amica9TV, Brindisi In, Blasting News Italia, TRM Network, Secolo XIX, FoggiaToday, PlayNews24, Stato Quotidiano, and many others that well-documented the conference, it reached BroadwayWorld, which viewed the Orthese experience as a "social laboratory" capable of responding to the mafia with music. This leap in scale comes from joint efforts and the bridging work done by Luciano Magaldi Sardella, who managed to translate for the English-speaking audience alongside New York editor Chris Rabinowitz the deep meaning of a village band that in Apulia is not folklore, but a civil presence, a concrete alternative to screens and disintegration. In a South often narrated only for its emergencies, Orta Nova chooses to be told for its ability to generate community. And this time, the news has made its way around the world, starting from a square in Daunia. The Schedule The path, entirely free, includes instrumental workshops for brass and percussion, ensemble music lessons, and collective rehearsals with qualified teachers and conductors, open to aspiring musicians, families, schools, and citizens. The program that attracted the attention of national and now international press is organized as follows: October 2026: parade of bands marching through the streets and public spaces of Orta Nova, to recover the historical value of the band as a popular and identity expression. November-December 2026: high-profile concert season with the Grand Band Concert of Conversano and the Grand Band Concert "Biagio Abbate" City of Bisceglie, artistic training for the young students. Focus on inclusion: a special evening dedicated to female music with the Orchestra Note di Puglia, a formation composed entirely of professionals, to reinforce the values of equal opportunities. January 2027: first official concert of the newly formed Community Band of Orta Nova, a foundational act and public restitution of the work done. (translated)

Marco Setaccioli criticized those who had defined the idea of a just peace, understood as respect for sovereignty, borders, and the freedoms of all peoples, as "degrading." He wondered if the normalization of oppression, occupation, violence, and denial of rights could be called peace and accused propagandists like Alessandro Di Battista of presenting themselves as pacifists while, in his opinion, demanding the surrender of those who had suffered the war rather than those who had started it. #Pace #Giustizia #DirittiUmani (translated)
