Pentagon seeks more than $200 billion in budget request for Iran war

That figure would far surpass the costs of the U.S. airstrike campaign to date and aims to boost production of critical weapons depleted in the conflict, people familiar with the matter said.

Spain could be the only EU country to beat energy price hikes

Spain spent the last six years investing heavily in wind and solar energy, leading to some of the cheapest power prices in Europe.

The only nationalism I enjoy is that of the teams singing their anthems at the #rugby Six Nations.

Presentazione libro Rugby Underground + Terzo tempo (aperitivo) @ OST Barriera by Dynamo Dora Rugby Popolare

Circolo “Ost Barriera”, venerdì 20 marzo alle ore 19:00 CET

Tornano gli appuntamenti culturali della Dynamo Dora da OST! Questa volta per un’occasione speciale di presentazione di libro con autore. Avremo il piacere di ospitare il grande giornalista ed ex rugbista Marco Pastonesi con il suo ultimo libro Rugby Underground! Una storia ambientata nella Milano degli anni ’70 e a fare da teatro un inagibile scantinato di un elettrauto che si trasforma in una cantina, o in un salotto, o in un circolo anche se rettangolare o forse in un’osteria, in un dopolavoro per disoccupati, in una biblioteca, in un presidio di resistenza umana. Insomma, in un rugby club. L’unico rugby club al mondo che disputa esclusivamente il terzo tempo. Per celebrare questo rituale, seguirà un ricco aperitivo a cura della vostra squadra di rugby preferita. Eventi come questi ci permettono di sopravvivere come realtà autogestita, vieni a sostenere la Dynamo!
Ci vediamo venerdì 20 marzo dalle 19 al Circolo OST Barriera in via Pietracqua 9
