April 9, 2024: Physical Therapy, Franny Choi
Physical Therapy Franny Choi Ask, first, what your smallest body parts require to sing again: coconut oil for your hair’s dry ends, camphor for the earlobes, rosehip kneaded into fingertips with fingertips. Grapeseed will feed most hungers of the skin. But if even your bones cry January, dip your sharpest knife in a jar of raw honey. Lather it on your thighs, making circles, making certain not to confuse this ache for that other, the one that keeps pulling you to the earth, the one question you still can’t say out loud. Recite instead the names of trees: sumac, sweet birch, slippery elm. Take your palm to the wild place under your chin and count: vein, artery, chokecherry, weeping willow, until your xacto knife pulse slows, holds. Let your mouth fill with gold, almonds, zinneas. Then: soften.

Picasso Masterpiece 'Femme à la montre' Sells for $139 Million at Auction
A Picasso masterpiece entitled “Femme à la montre” fetched more than $139 million on Wednesday, becoming the second most valuable work by the artist ever sold at auction.
The 1932 oil painting took center-stage at a two-day event at Sotheby’s in New York, at the sale of late philanthropist Emily Fisher Landau’s private collection.
The piece, which measures 51¼ x 38 inches (130 x 96.5 centimeters), depicts Picasso’s lover and “golden muse” Marie-Thérèse Walter, who featured in many of his portraits.
According to the auction house, the portrait is from one of the most prolific years of the Spanish artist’s career, which was the subject of an entire exhibition organized by the Musée Picasso in Paris and London’s Tate Modern in 2018.
In a statement announcing the sale in September, Julian Dawes, Sotheby’s head of Impressionist & Modern Art for the Americas, said: “Picasso’s ‘Femme à la Montre’ is a masterpiece by every measure. Painted in 1932 — Picasso’s ‘annus mirabilis’ — it is full of joyful, passionate abandon yet at the same time it is utterly considered and resolved. Its bold primary colors sing from the five-foot-tall-canvas.”
Picasso first met Walter in Paris in 1927 when she was 17 years old and he was still married to his first wife, Olga Khokhlova, a Russian-Ukrainian ballet dancer. Walter would become the inspiration for some of his most sought-after canvases, drawings and sculptures.
As time went on, Picasso found it increasingly difficult to hide his feelings for Walter from his work — something that became clear during his first large-scale retrospective and finally ended his marriage.
The artist painted “Femme à la montre” in August 1932, soon after the retrospective at the Galerie Georges Petit in Paris ended.
According to Sotheby’s, “the sense of release from keeping secrets about his affair seem to have spilled out onto this extraordinary canvas, in which he gives full painterly rein to new-found freedoms, drenching the painting in strong primary colors and beautiful forms, while at the same time paying careful attention to every small detail, creating a composition that is both intensely complex and deeply harmonious.”
Picasso died in 1973, and Walter in 1977.
The painting is one of about 120 from the collection of Fisher Landau, a world renowned contemporary art collector who died earlier this year aged 102, according to The Art Newspaper.
The two-part sale, which concludes Thursday, also includes works by Mark Rothko, Andy Warhol, Willem de Kooning and Georgia O’Keeffe. The collection is expected to sell for over $400 million overall. Other big-ticket items auctioned on Wednesday included one of Jasper Johns’ iconic American flag paintings, which went for $41 million, and an Ed Ruscha artwork — an oil painting emblazoned with the word “Boss” — that fetched more than $39.4 million.
Fisher Landau began seriously collecting after receiving an insurance payout following an armed robbery of her jewelry at her New York home in 1969.
In an interview for an exhibition catalog, quoted in the Sotheby’s statement, she said of the episode: “Even though Lloyds of London paid up, there was no way to replace that collection. It was so beautiful. And they got it in one fell swoop…. I was devastated. But I decided that I didn’t want the jewelry any more. I now had seed money for a collection.”
Last year, Picasso’s most curious painting of Walter, in which she appears as a tentacled sea creature, sold for $67.5 million at Sotheby’s in New York.
Picasso’s portraits of Walter have become highly sought-after, with his other 1932 works “Femme assise près d’une fenêtre (Marie-Thérèse),” selling for $103.41 million in 2021, and “Nude, Green Leaves and Bust,” selling for $106.5 million in 2010.
In May 2015, Picasso’s “Les femmes d’Alger (Version “O”) sold at Christie’s in New York for $179.4 million — at that time, the highest price ever paid for a work of art at auction.

Dad's Thai Yellow Curry
A few magic ingredients make my yellow curry better than almost any you find anywhere. I've had thai curry on 3 different continents, including Bangkok thailand, and I've picked up some tricks. This curry recipes and techniques will create a yellow curry that will be as good or better than most restaurants.
Lime leaf. This south asian spice is very hard to find and often only found in good asian markets in port cities
Coconut CREAM. Cream. Cream. Cream. NOT COCNUT MILK. the coconut cream should be thick, almost the consistency of bree.
Fresh bamboo tips (often sold as parboiled) Bamboo shoots are juicy, and sweet, and do not have the fibers that most canned bamboo has.
_FRESH_ Thai basil. Thai basil is sweet, has a _hint_ lif annus. The combo of the lime leaf and thai basil are what give thai curry that distinctive taste and seporates Thai curry from indian or other curries.
Not so much an ingredient but brown peanuts in your oil. In a separate small pan toss a handful of peanuts and enough oil to cover them. adds a wonderful toasted nutty flavor.
Same with chili peppers, those red pinky finger length dried bright red chilis. Toss those into a small pan with a bit of oil and heat them until they start to turn dark. Don’t worry if a couple turn black.
8oz coconut _cream_ (best I’ve found was at QFC. Do not get coconut cream intended for a bar… it is mostly sugar. Or, bigger boxed coconut cream from Hung Phat(your local well stocked asian market), OR coconut cream in a can from your local asian market) Coconut cream should be almost solid. (yeah this is such a big deal I can not tell you)
8oz lime water (slice a half a lime, put it in the water Microwave for 30 seconds)
Optional 8oz coconut milk
1 teaspoon to 2 tablespoons garlic (FRESH)
1 “thumb” fresh ginger pealed chopped (best technique is to use a potato peeler to make very thin slices) (yes this seems like a lot of giger)
Heaping teaspoon Mae Ploy brand curry paste
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 teaspoon of sesame oil
1 tablespoons chili oil or roasted chilis (pref roasted chilis)
½ cup roasted peanuts
2 tablespoons peanut oil (brown some peanuts and add canola oil)
2 Kaffir lime leaf (each "leaf" it's actually 2 leaves)(note: don't call it Kaffir anymore.. google it)
Star Annus (3 cloves) (keep whole!)
1 stalk of fresh thai basil (strip the leaves off the stalks should be about 8 leaves)
2 limes
Bamboo Shoots/Sprouts (Fresh from Hung Phat, canned otherwise, ideally “slivers” rather than planks or disks/medallions)
Optional: Pineapple
1/2 cup: Shredded carrot
1 sauce pot
One small pan
Optional: Roast some chilis then add some coconut oil to make chili oil and roasted chilis (for deep smoky flavor, and spice)
Optional: Roast some peanuts then add some canola oil to make roasted peanuts (for deep nutty flavor)
In small pan on high, add some chili or peanut oil warm it
Finely chop the kafire leaf and lightly saute it, this breaks the leaf down and allows the flavor to escape,
Next add the peanuts, be careful peanuts go from uncooked to burnt in a second,
As soon as the peanuts start to change color add the chopped ginger and garlic and
Add the star annus (yes without breaking the shells, it is easier to pick the big shells out later
NOTE: The following instructions are a little messed up and confusing, stay tuned for a rewrite, this should read something like, put the olis you just made into a big pot, put the may ploy curry paste in the oil and sautee the paste until it breaks up and starts to turn a awful looking dark brown, THEN add the coconut cream and all the other stuff, heat for a while until the cocnut cream liquifies and then add some coconut water
Turn this pan off, as it cools down the garlic and ginger and annis and oil should start to mix to make a very smoky pungent oil brew
While Star annis is very woody. and ya don't want bits of it in your curry, once you are all done making the oils put some annis and ginger in the little pan, on medium hi, after about a min add coconut cream and bring to boil, basically making Anniston and ginger tea. Turn the burner off and let that steep for a 3 to 4 min while the curry is breaking down. Then strain the Annis ginger tea into the curry
In the pot bring up to high, add the coconut oil,
When the coconut oil has melted, add the curry paste
Sautee the curry paste until it turns dark color and turns into curry oil. The curry will go through a phase change (solid to liquid) this will be complete when the curry and oil start to bubble, and turn dark brown, almost looks burnt. It is hard to burn curry paste this way, but it is easy to under cook it. If the curry paste is under cooked the curry will have a “gritty” or “grainy” flavor and texture. The curry past has to completely break down into dark oily goo. Don’t worry if the yellow curry or red or green does not look yellow, red, or green. The color will come back when you add the coconut cream.
When the curry paste has been broken down into oil,
Now add your sauteed lime leaf/garlic/ginger/chili, annus oil to that mix
Stir well, you should have a bit of curry oil at the bottom of your pot, and it should look like a an almost burnt, oily mess with ginger and garlic lumps.
_now_ Add the coconut cream
Stir, and stir, you should start to see the color of the curry emerge in the coconut cream almost immediately.
Squeeze a lime into that,
Bring it up almost to boil,
Add the bamboo shoots
stir
Add the optional pineapple
Stir
Optional, add some shredded carrot
Chop the lime rind into big chunks and throw the chunks into the soup
Again: The “Tricks” to making curry takest fantastic:
Coconut CREAM, (not coconut milk or coconut water)
Sautee the curry paste in oil FIRST
Kaffir lime leaves, sauteed, separately
Pan Roasted peanuts
Pan roasted chilis
Bamboo shoots IN the curry soup
Optional, double everything, and also add some coconut milk/coconut water, lemon grass

“What does ‘rethinking solidarity mean?’. It does not of course mean calling into question the recent magisterium which, on the contrary, is increasingly showing how farsighted and up to date it is. Rather than ‘rethinking’, it seems to me to mean two things: first of all combining the magisterium with social and economic development since it is constant and rapid it reveals ever new aspects. Secondly, “rethinking” means deepening knowledge, reflecting further to enhance all the fruitfulness of a value — solidarity in this case — which draws in depth from the Gospel, that is, from Jesus Christ, and so as such contains an inexhaustible potential.
…
Unemployment — the lack or loss of work — is a phenomenon that is spreading like an oil slick in vast areas of the west and is alarmingly widening the boundaries of poverty. Moreover there is no worse material poverty, I am keen to stress, than the poverty which prevents people from earning their bread and deprives them of the dignity of work.
Well, this “something wrong” no longer regards only the south of the world but also the entire planet. Hence the need ‘to rethink solidarity’ no longer as simply assistance for the poorest, but as a global rethinking of the whole system, as a quest for ways to reform it and correct it in a way consistent with the fundamental human rights of all human beings. It is essential to restore to this word ‘solidarity’, viewed askance by the world of economics — as if it were a bad word — the social citizenship that it deserves. Solidarity is not an additional attitude, it is not a form of social alms-giving but, rather, a social value; and it asks us for its citizenship.
The current crisis is not only economic and financial but is rooted in an ethical and anthropological crisis. Concern with the idols of power, profit, and money, rather than with the value of the human person has become a basic norm for functioning and a crucial criterion for organization. We have forgotten and are still forgetting that over and above business, logic and the parameters of the market is the human being; and that something is men and women in as much as they are human beings by virtue of their profound dignity: to offer them the possibility of living a dignified life and of actively participating in the common good. Benedict XVI reminded us that precisely because it is human, all human activity, including economic activity, must be ethically structured and governed (cf. Encyclical Letter Caritas in Veritate, n. 36). We must return to the centrality of the human being, to a more ethical vision of activities and of human relationships without the fear of losing something.”
- Pope Francis, TO THE CENTESIMUS ANNUS PRO PONTIFICE FOUNDATION, 25 May 2013

Il caro acciaio sta deprimendo l’industria italiana
La manifattura italiana già in un contesto di debolezza congiunturale, sta subendo fortissimo, l’impatto di quotazioni alle stelle dell'acciaio. Parliamo di automotive, costruzioni, macchine, oil &gas. Tutti settori trainanti per la nostra economia che fanno ampio uso di acciaio grezzo e soprattutto di semilavorati e componenti. Tutte le filiere citate, non a caso, hanno visto rallentare nel 2022 ricavi e redditività, che invece erano migliorati nel 2021. Dopo il Covid, è tornata a preoccupare la rischiosità operativa e finanziaria: il 2023 si chiuderà dunque con una situazione economico-finanziaria in peggioramento e il rimbalzo atteso nel 2024 potrebbe essere meno deciso rispetto alle attese. È quanto emerso dall’analisi di siderweb – La community dell’acciaio basata sui numeri contenuti in Bilanci d’Acciaio 2023, giunto alla sua 15esima edizione e di cui qualche giorno fa è stato presentato l’approfondimento dedicato agli utilizzatori. L’Ufficio Studi siderweb, con la collaborazione dei professori Claudio Teodori e Cristian Carini dell’Università degli Studi di Brescia, ha analizzato dal punto di vista economico-finanziario i bilanci del triennio 2020/2022 di 3.694 imprese attive nella fabbricazione di prodotti in metallo, nella fabbricazione di macchine e apparecchiature, nella fabbricazione di autoveicoli e altri mezzi di trasporto, nelle costruzioni e nell’energia e oil & gas. Quasi 3mila hanno meno di 50 dipendenti e hanno generato un fatturato di 355,95 miliardi di euro, con un valore aggiunto di 72,39 miliardi di euro; l’Ebitda a 35,58 miliardi di euro; il reddito netto a 19,62 miliardi di euro. Insomma, si tratta davvero dello scheletro su cui si poggia la nostra economia. Per questo è necessario attuare strategie difensive che sono quelle proposte dai diversi rappresentanti delle industrie critiche, in particolare, Gianmarco Giorda (direttore generale Anfia), Massimo Angelo Deldossi (vicepresidente Ance) e Marco Nocivelli (presidente Anima). Le previsioni: lo stato dell’arte dell’industria dell’acciaio Secondo i dati più aggiornati di Federacciai, l’associazione di categoria presieduta da Antonio Gozzi (Duferco) l’Europa produce circa 150 milioni di tonnellate all’anno di acciaio su un totale mondiale di quasi 2 miliardi, prevalentemente concentrate in Asia e in Cina che, da qualche tempo, ha superato il miliardo di tonnellate annue di acciaio prodotto. L’Italia, con un fatturato di circa 66 miliardi di euro nel 2022 (+15,8% rispetto al 2021), si conferma il secondo produttore di acciaio dell’Ue, alle spalle della Germania e prima della Francia, e il primo produttore d’acciaio con forno elettrico. Siamo inoltre l’11esimo produttore al mondo, alle spalle dell’Iran e davanti a Taiwan. Nel report Bilanci d’Acciaio 2023, vengono scandagliati i bilanci di 1.669 imprese, le quali presentano 93,4 miliardi di fatturato, 94,3 di valore della produzione, 14,5 di valore aggiunto, 9,4 di Ebitda, 5,1 di reddito netto, 74 di capitale investito e 31,5 di mezzi propri. I valori economici del 2022 sono ampiamente superiori a quelli dell’anno precedente, che già si era connotato per una forte ripresa dopo la crisi pandemica. In particolare, la crescita del fatturato e del valore della produzione nel 2022 è molto alta, vicina al 17% e considerando l’intero triennio, l’aumento medio annuo è del 37%. Numeri importanti su cui ha avuto un impatto positivo la crescita delle quantità ma soprattutto l’aumento dei prezzi (che è proseguito nel 2023). Ma l’aumento del fatturato non ha corrisposto a un parallelo incremento della marginalità: perché contestualmente sono diminuiti i consumi e sono cresciuti i costi energetici. La buona notizia è che le siderurgie hanno visto migliorare in generale, invece, la situazione debitoria e la liquidità: le aziende siderurgiche sono così più preparate ad affrontare gli scossoni rispetto al passato. L’impatto sui settori utilizzatori: ecco perché rallenteranno Lo stesso non si può dire, come anticipato, dei settori utilizzatori. Eurofer, l’associazione dei produttori siderurgici europei, si aspetta un incremento della domanda reale di acciaio in Unione europea, quindi quella dei settori industriali e delle costruzioni. La domanda aumenterà dello 0,2% nel 2024, con un consumo apparente (un dato che tiene conto del ciclo delle scorte, quindi epurato dall’export e a cui si aggiunge l’import) del +7,6%. Il consumo apparente misura l’ammontare di acciaio consumato nel Paese ed è dunque un dato molto importante, in quanto termometro della produttività corrente delle industrie utilizzatrici. Anche l’Italia vedrà il consumo apparente crescere (+4,8%, con un incremento dei volumi di poco più di 1 milione di tonnellate rispetto al 2023). Eurofer si aspetta un consumo apparente di 142 milioni di tonnellate, «ovvero 8 milioni in meno del 2021, 11 in meno rispetto al 2018 e lo stesso livello del 2015. Un anno non straordinario, anche se in recupero», spiega Ferrari. Il problema è che però la crescita attesa, spiega Ferrari «è legata quasi esclusivamente in Europa e in Italia alla ricostituzione delle scorte dopo il destoccaggio dell’ultimo biennio. Se una quota di destoccaggio è da considerarsi normale, una parte dipenderà dall’andamento del prezzo e del mercato e quindi è molto aleatoria». Insomma, le cose potrebbe andare peggio del previsto, soprattutto se l’economia si mostrasse più debole di quanto oggi appaia. Così, se nel 2023 si prevede una riduzione della produzione in tutti i settori utilizzatori, a eccezione della fabbricazione di autoveicoli e altri mezzi di trasporto; nel 2024 è attesa una leggera ripresa (in tutti meno le costruzioni a causa della riduzione degli incentivi fiscali). Ma in media le attese sono di un peggioramento di fatturato, redditività e liquidità, con un parallelo aumento della rischiosità. Caro-acciaio: l’impatto sui bilanci dell’industria. Giorda (Anfia): il maggior rischio è sui componentisti Il report Bilancio D’acciaio analizza in dettaglio anche il fronte dei settori utilizzatori, in particolare cinque cluster: prodotti in metallo, fabbricazione di macchinari, automotive e altri mezzi di trasporto, costruzioni, oil & gas. Sul fronte dei margini, «la fabbricazione di prodotti in metallo ha performato meglio della media, mente l’auto mostra numeri al di sotto della linea di trend – così il professore Cristian Carini, che ha curato l’indagine – un trend dovuto a un incremento di costi che non si è riusciti a ribaltare sui clienti». All’interno del settore auto c’è da fare una distinzione. «Negli ultimi anni i costruttori sono riusciti a ribaltare a valle l’aumento dei costi delle materie prime. La stessa cosa non si può dire per la componentistica, che ha assorbito i costi senza però che questi fossero riconosciuti dai costruttori – a dirlo è Gianmarco Giorda, il direttore generale di Anfia, che rappresenta le industrie delle due categorie – prima del 2021 avveniva esattamente il contrario». Insomma, i componentisti stanno arrancando, anche perché «si rivolgono all’export con le relative problematiche legate alle disparità di condizioni e di incentivi dei diversi Paesi dell’Unione, soprattutto sul fronte della transizione green». Transizione green che in Europa si vuole abilitare in particolare con la mobilità elettrica, il cui futuro è però incerto. «Siamo riusciti a “raddrizzare” il dossier Euro 7 e a rendere la proposta ambiziosa ma realizzabile. Il prossimo tema da affrontare è quello dei target CO2 su veicoli pesanti e autobus, in cui i target prevedono che il 90% sia al 2024 a zero emissioni. Speriamo che anche in questo campo l’Ue si riporti verso obiettivi. Deldossi (Ance): le costruzioni soffrono per il caro materie prime e l’incertezza normativa, ma resta la speranza Pnrr «Come per le auto, l’aumento esplosivo dei costi è la ragione per cui il settore che ha sofferto di più è stato quello delle costruzioni che ha visto il sui indebitamento raddoppiare – continua il professore Carini – Stabili fatturato e marginalità ma con una maggiore ricerca di risorse esterne: questo, combinato con l’aumento dei tassi di interesse nel 2023, potrebbe avere effetti sensibili sul conto economico in arrivo». Le costruzioni hanno sperimentato una crescita nel biennio pandemico ma ora stanno frenando e oltre che dai costi di materie prime ed energia, su questa dinamica interviene anche l’incertezza normativa «Stimiamo un primo semestre del 2024 in discesa per la filiera delle costruzioni generato dall’aumento dei costi delle materie prime iniziati nel 2021, che hanno reso difficile l’operatività delle imprese – dice il vicepresidente di Ance (Associazione Nazionale Costruttori) Massimo Angelo Deldossi – È ancora da valutare però l’effetto del Pnrr, che potrebbe migliorare le stime». Ma in questo caso si naviga a vista: «le indicazioni iniziano a cambiare e questa incertezza le imprese non riescono a fare pianificazione, e questo riguarda il piano della legge in Italia ma anche in Europa, se pensiamo alla normativa per l’efficientamento energetico degli edifici. Anche le modifiche chieste all’Ue sul Pnrr dimostrano una difficoltà e in certi casi incapacità di gestire gli appalti. Forse concentrare gestione, risorse e progetti non sui Comuni ma sulle Regioni avrebbe migliorato l’efficienza amministrativa». Meccanica: bisogna potenziare Industria 4.0 per abbattere l’incertezza «I nostri partner commerciali in Germania sono in difficoltà e nessuno pensa a incrementare gli investimenti». È questo il principale elemento di rischio per l’industria meccanica secondo Marco Nocivelli, presidente di Anima, la confederazione delle macchine industriali. «Gli investimenti in industria 4.0 hanno rallentato – dice Novicelli – le istituzioni devono stanziare denaro e noi, come federazione, dobbiamo far comprendere l’importanza dell’Industria 4.0». La competitività che è abilitata dalla digitalizzazione è l’unica via, in un mondo che sta di nuovo cambiando in cui «gli Stati Uniti sono diventati il maggior esportatore di petrolio e stanno spostando gli investimenti dalla Cina verso l’India». Nocivelli è comunque fiducioso della capacità degli imprenditori italiani di reagire alle avversità. «Le imprese della meccanica in particolare sono molto veloci nel cambiare attitudine, nel reagire in maniera corretta e puntano molto sulla ricerca, per esempio di materiali di sostituzione, che possano garantire le stesse caratteristiche pur essendo diversi. E ai temi della riciclabilità e riusabilità». Quanto all’energia «la transizione è ineluttabile – continua Novicelli – anche se bisognerebbe proporre target più razionali fronte Europa. Ma il costo per MWh delle rinnovabili è diventato estremamente competitivo, e ancora esse non hanno raggiunto il loro picco. La strada è quella». Anima vuole «aiutare gli imprenditori ad avere certezze sulle materie prime e le metodologie che utilizzeranno, sul fatto che queste stesse metodologie possono essere certificate per rispondere ai temi Esg e creare valori significativi». Decarbonizzazione, regionalizzazione e cigni neri: i tre trend di un futuro nebuloso per l’acciaio Tornando sul fronte dell’acciaio, si consolidano secondo gli esperti di siderweb i tre macrotrend in atto: la decarbonizzazione, che «rivoluzionerà il volto della siderurgia europea nei prossimi anni – dice Ferrari – e che avrà un impatto economico sia sui costi di investimento sia sul mercato, con l’acciaio europeo che costerà di più rispetto a quello prodotto in altre regioni». La decarbonizzazione porterà alla regionalizzazione della produzione e dei consumi: questo è il secondo trend che è stato innescato dall’introduzione della cosiddetta Section 232 negli Usa. La legge americana prevede infatti una dazio del 25% per le importazioni di acciaio fuso e versati negli Ue, oltre la soglia delle 3,3 milioni di tonnellate. «Le differenze di trattamento saranno destinate a perdurare e forse ad acuirsi nei prossimi anni – prosegue Ferrari – con effetti soprattutto sulle industrie che trasformano l’acciaio e rivendono i prodotti finiti all’estero, che potrebbero in alcune aree avere problemi di competitività». L’ultimo trend è la norma dei cigni neri: pandemia di Covid, esplosione dei costi dell’energia, guerra russo-ucraina, terremoto in Turchia: tutti fatti straordinari ma ormai nel novero del prevedibile, che impattano sull’acciaio italiano ed europeo. …che temono ancora il costo dell’energia e la lentezza della transizione green Ma cosa si aspettano dal futuro le aziende italiane dell’acciaio? Una risposta è contenuta nell’indagine che il professor Claudio Teodori (Università di Brescia) ha somministrato sempre nell’ambito del report di siderweb a un campione di 60 aziende della filiera siderurgica. «Le aziende che hanno aderito al sondaggio appartengono prevalentemente a tre dei comparti di attività: produzione (29%), centri servizio (9%) e distribuzione di acciaio (28%) – spiega Teodori –il campione è ben equilibrato sul fronte delle dimensioni: il 26% delle aziende ha un valore superiore ai 100 milioni, il 31% compreso tra 25 e 100 milioni, il 43% inferiore a 25 milioni». Per queste imprese, la maggior preoccupazione per il futuro è nel costo dell’energia, che incide in modo rilevante sui conti economici: «sono certamente importanti i supporti governativi, ma questi non possono protrarsi in futuro, almeno nella quantità del passato più recente – dice Teodori – anche sul tema delle fonti rinnovabili siamo indietro: il tasso di sostituzione non è ancora significativo. Il rischio è una perdita di competitività, che richiede una profonda revisione del posizionamento dell’Italia in Europa e nel mondo. Visto lo stringente collegamento con alcuni settori utilizzatori, anche il loro andamento non è neutro: si pensi, solo per fare due esempi, all’edilizia che cresce solo grazie ai bonus e all’automotive, il cui futuro è tutt’altro che chiaro». Anche il costo del denaro influisce sui piani di investimento e rallenta o ferma piani di innovazione che dovrebbero puntare ad aumentare la sicurezza, migliorare la logistica e implementare la formazione. «La filiera diventa sempre più importante perché per fronteggiare concorrenti esteri di dimensioni assai più grandi è necessario fare sistema – dice Teodori – la dimensione diventa elemento fondamentale per la competitività, e la dimensione di fonda su accordi o acquisizioni. In modo analogo sono necessari interventi di riorganizzazione, per garantire maggiore flessibilità operativa necessaria a reagire tempestivamente ai cambiamenti. Nell’ultimo biennio le imprese si sono rafforzate ma ci sono incognite da non trascurare». Read the full article

This might not be as concrete as you want, but divination can be a pretty wiggly field!
I’d look for methods and key words first. Black mirrors, augury, cloud shapes, tea leaves- maybe stuff related to any preexisting interests you have, like bibliomancy, or particularly in my case I worked on figuring out how the Babylonians did it with water bowls and oil droplets.
Not everything is going to click. Sometimes, most of it won’t. The trick is to find something that feels good to use, I would say. If using a black mirror feels too pretentious and you keep asking yourself why the hell you’re doing this, try something else. If you love being pretentious and it gets you in the witchy headspace, by all means keep going. At the end of the day though, there are multiple ways to get the same result, and as such it can feel overwhelming or even pointless on occasion.
Start with a small pool of ideas that interest you, with whatever level of structure you need- that’s why so many people recommend Tarot, since it has set symbols and half a dozen guidebooks to use as you need. For some people that doesn’t vibe at all, and you might get more out of staring into flowing water and trying to feel what it has to say.
On that note! Lemme get off my soapbox and grab you some links.
Book rec: The Illustrated Guide to Divination by Hall and Jacobs
Book pdf: Divination in the Ancient World edited by Amar Annus
Essay pdf: Animals and Divination by Stuck
Black Mirrors
Libanomancy
sorry if this is a vague question to ask but do you have any recommended resources for beginners interested in scrying, whether they be articles, blogs, books, etc?
I don't personally, but my followers may!
Any suggestions, peeps?

Mark and Ethan stop doing spiritual/new-age things challenge so I dont feel compelled to pointlessly yell at them out of frustration while they do everything wrong
#ethan please do not light those on fire#that's not incense#this is not how you do any of this#if they rub peppermint on themselves i'll cry#dont touch peppermint oil kids it'll hurt#i would love if they would stop sniffing the oils like that#it's not good to inhale#why are they pouring them all into a bucket dear lord#WHY DID THEY PUT THAT MUCH OIL IN THERE#THEIR POOR LUNGS OH MY GOD#unus annus

"outline" Recipe for Thai Yellow Curry
This isn't so much a recipe as notes and ingredients
Few tricks..
Coconut _cream_
"lime leaves" Only available at asian market
Fresh bamboo shoots in the curry soup
Sautee the MayPloy paste in coconut oil until it seporates turns brown with red oily bits.
Roasted Peanuts
Shredded carrot in the soup
Bamboo tips
8oz coconut _cream_ (best I’ve found was at QFC. Do not get coconut cream intended for a bar… it is mostly sugar. Or, bigger boxed coconut cream from Hung Phat, OR coconut cream in a can from your local asian market) Coconut cream should be almost solid
8oz water (lime juice in the water)
1 teaspoon to 2 tablespoons garlic (FRESH)
1 “thumb” fresh ginger pealed chopped
Heaping teaspoon Mae Ploy brand curry paste
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 teaspoon of sesame oil
1 tablespoons chili oil or roasted chilis (pref roasted chilis)
½ cup roasted peanuts (unroasted is ok)
2 tablespoons peanut oil (brown some peanuts and add canola oil)
3 Kaffir lime leaves
Star Annus (3 cloves)
2 limes
Bamboo Shoots/Sprouts (Fresh from Hung Phat, canned otherwise, ideally “slivers” rather than planks or disks/medallions) Or poached baboo tips.. these have proven to provide better taste
Optional: Pineapple
Shredded carrot
1 sauce pot
One small pan
Optional: Roast some chilis then add some coconut oil to make chili oil and roasted chilis (for deep smoky flavor, and spice)
toast some peanuts in coconut oil then add some canola oil to make roasted peanuts (for deep nutty flavor)
In small pan on high, add some chili or peanut oil warm it
Finely chop the kafire leaf and saute it, this breaks the leaf down and allows the flavor to escape,
Next add the peanuts, be careful peanuts go from uncooked to burnt in a second,
As soon as the peanuts start to change color add the chopped ginger and garlic and
Add the star annus (yes without breaking the shells, it is easier to pick the big shells out later)
Turn this pan off, as it cools down the garlic and ginger and annus and oil should start to mix to make a very smoky pungent oil brew
Whike Star Anniston is very woody. And ya don't want bits of it in your curry, once you are all done making the oils put some Anniston and ginger in the little pan, on medium hi, after about a min add coconut water and bring to boil, basically making Anniston and ginger tea. Turn the burner off and let that steep for a 3 to 4 min while the curry is breaking down. Then strain the Annis ginger tea into the curry
In the pot bring up to high, add the coconut oil,
When the coconut oil has melted, add the curry paste
Sautee the curry paste until it turns dark color and turns into curry oil. The curry will go through a phase change (solid to liquid) this will be complete when the curry and oil start to bubble, and turn dark brown, almost looks burnt. It is hard to burn curry paste this way, but it is easy to under cook it. If the curry paste is under cooked the curry will have a “gritty” or “grainy” flavor and texture. The curry past has to completely break down into dark oily goo. Don’t worry if the yellow curry or red or green does not look yellow, red, or green. The color will come back when you add the coconut cream.
When the curry paste has been broken down into oil,
Now add your sauteed lime leaf/garlic/ginger/chili, annus oil to that mix
Stir well, you should have a bit of curry oil at the bottom of your pot, and it should look like a an almost burnt, oily mess with ginger and garlic lumps.
_now_ Add the coconut cream
Stir, and stir, you should start to see the color of the curry emerge in the coconut cream almost immediately.
Squeeze a lime into that,
Bring it up almost to boil,
Add the bamboo shoots
stir
Add the optional pineapple
Stir
Optional, add some shredded carrot
Chop the lime rind into big chunks and throw the chunks into the soup
The “Tricks” to making curry takest fantastic:
Coconut CREAM, (not coconut milk or coconut water)
Sautee the curry paste in oil FIRST
Kaffir lime leaves, sauteed, separately
Pan Roasted peanuts
Pan roasted chilis
Bamboo shoots IN the curry soup
Optional, double everything, and also add some coconut milk/coconut water, lemon grass
