Editoriale DI PAOLA GOMIERO direttore FABI Plus E come sempre un numero ricco di interviste, articoli, notizie, moda, ten- denze e consigli di lettura ma che questa volta, rispetto al solito, ospita so- prattutto personaggi maschili, perché se l’8 marzo è la Festa della Donna, pochi sanno che il 2 agosto, fin dal tempo di Napoleone, è quella dell’Uomo. Rupert Everett si è conquistato il posto in copertina; lo abbiamo incontra- to a Torino in occasione della presentazione del suo film “The Happy Prince, l’ultimo ritratto di Oscar Wilde”, dedicato agli ultimi anni dello scrittore ir- landese nel quale il noto attore svolge il ruolo di regista e protagonista. Stimolante e inedita l’intervista a Luciano Fontana, direttore del Corriere della Sera, il più importante quotidiano italiano, che ci parla d’Italia, Europa e comunicazione liquida. Tra gli artisti troviamo Enrico Ruggeri, il cantautore milanese attualmen- te in tour con la sua storica band per presentare il nuovo album “L’Anticristo”. Nella rubrica Tecnofuturo abbiamo intervistato Salvatore Aranzulla, sa- lito alle cronache e ormai conosciuto da chiunque abbia avuto problemi con il proprio PC, smartphone o utilizzando internet, per la sua capacità di fornire soluzioni semplici ed immediate. Il pittore Marco Benedetti lo abbiamo intervistato nella rubrica “A cola- zione con” e lo scrittore paesologo Franco Arminio, conosciuto anche come poeta, lo abbiamo incontrato durante la presentazione della sua nuova e integrata edizione del suo libro sul paesaggio. Abbiamo voluto dedicare attenzione a Giovanni Berardi, che ci presenta il suo libro dedicato alla storia del padre Rosario, maresciallo di polizia, as- sassinato dalle Brigate Rosse nella Torino degli Anni di Piombo. Interessanti notizie arrivano dal mondo delle aziende con l’intervista a Edoardo Pampuro, Amministratore di un marchio, quello dell’Acqua Laure- tana, che rappresenta un’eccellenza sulla tavola degli italiani e Carla Sibilla, amministratore Delegato di C-Way, il tour operator protagonista di vacanze che uniscono il divertimento con i valori delle tradizioni e dei luoghi. A tutti auguro una buona lettura e una magnifica estate! .

  • WWOZ Volunteers Celebrated the Station's 37Th Year on the Air with a Party on December 4Th at the New Orleans Jazz Museum in the Old U.S
    Friends of WWOZ Board of Directors/NOJHFF WWOZ General Manager’s Report December 2017 December 13, 2017 Highlights: WWOZ volunteers celebrated the station's 37th year on the air with a party on December 4th at the New Orleans Jazz Museum in the Old U.S. Mint, with over 175 volunteers, board members, and staff in attendance. As a follow-up to our Don’t Stop The Music Fall Pledge Drive, WWOZ’s development department held a “Thank-A-Thon,” with the help of many volunteers who made personal phone calls to thank over 800 donors for their support for WWOZ. WWOZ’s Tricentennial Music Moments series is set to launch on-air January 1, with an initial set of 20 mini-documentaries under two minutes each, showcasing moments from the city’s music history in new and entertaining ways. The features are being voiced by a range of beloved New Orleans musicians and personalities, and will air in rotation several times a day. New Tricentennial Moments will debut regularly over the course of the year, making an eventual total of 104. WWOZ is pleased to welcome two new board members--Journalist and broadcaster Norman Robinson, and Economic Development Executive Brittany Major. Both Norman and Brittany have completed their WWOZ orientation, toured the station and received their board packets on December 5th. Please see attached for their bios. NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE HUMANITIES Chairman John Parrish Peedge will be visiting the station. I plan to speak with him regarding possible future grants for WWOZ and he will be interviewed by T.R.
