☆ A tiny Italian village wants to fast-track Americans unhappy with the election into buying an entire home for 1 euro
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-21 | by ( Jordan Pandy | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +3 min

AdvertisementA small town in Italy is offering homes for 1 euro to attract Americans amid the recent election cycle. Ollolai's initiative is part of Italy's broader "Case a 1 euro" program started in the 2010s. There is also an option for digital nomads to work there for a month for only 1 euro. Ollolai started offering 1-euro homes in 2018, but other towns, like Sicilian commune Gangi, started giving away vacant houses in 2015. But if you don't want to commit fully to moving across the ocean, a redirect from the Ollolai website luring potential buyers offers an option for digital nomads.

Ollolai, a village on the Italian island of Sardinia, is offering $1 homes and several other schemes to attract American expats. The rural Italian village has been selling dilapidated houses for as little as one euro since 2018, and after the 2024 U.S. presidential election, it launched a website offering up even more cheap homes. Ollolai's mayor, Francesco Columbu, told CNN the website was created to lure Americans after the 2024 presidential elections. "We have specifically created this website now to meet U.S. post-elections relocation needs. The first edition of our digital nomad scheme, which launched last year, was already solely for Americans," he added.

He says he loves the United States and is convinced Americans are the best people to help revive his community. “We can’t of course ban people from other countries to apply, but Americans will have a fast-track procedure. We are betting on them to help us revive the village, they are our winning card. In 2018, as first reported by CNN, the town hall started selling dilapidated empty homes for one euro. “The village remains half empty, we still have about 100 unoccupied cheap homes potentially on sale, ready to move in.

☆ Opinion: Even if Trump can’t stay awake this week, the jury will have reason to

CNN —Welcome to week two of the Trump 2016 election interference trial. And the case Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg brought is, at heart, a documents case – Trump has been charged with 34 counts of felony record falsification, actions allegedly taken to cover up hush money payoffs connected to the 2016 election. But as demonstrated by longtime Trump assistant Rhona Graff’s testimony Friday afternoon, the methodical nature of the testimony and evidence doesn’t mean it will be dull for the jury. The testimony of Gary Farro, Cohen’s onetime banker, is emblematic of what we are likely to hear from other witnesses this week. When defense counsel elicited from Graff on cross-examination that Trump was a good boss, she became a free character witness.

☆ The Comfortable Problem of Mid TV

A few years ago, “Atlanta” and “PEN15” were teaching TV new tricks. In “PEN15,” Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle created a minutely observed, universal-yet-specific picture of adolescent awkwardness. In February, Glover and Erskine returned in the action thriller “Mr. But I would never have wasted an episode of “Atlanta” or “PEN15” on in-flight entertainment. Keri Russell, a ruthless and complicated Russian spy in “The Americans,” is now in “The Diplomat,” a forgettably fun dramedy.

☆ In ‘Elsbeth,’ a Quirky Side Character Becomes a Quirky Lead
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-28 | by ( Elisabeth Vincentelli | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

While filming the new crime show “Elsbeth” in an Upper West Side apartment in January, Carrie Preston, playing the title character, tentatively patted the guest star Peter Grosz on the arm. The combination of the gesture and Elsbeth’s hesitant expression made the attempt at comfort come across as simultaneously awkward and funny — and unmistakably true to the consistently awkward, funny Elsbeth. Robert King, who created the series with his wife, Michelle, and was directing that particular episode, chuckled in delight as he watched on a monitor. “That was probably not in the script.”Premiering Thursday on CBS, “Elsbeth” is a new project but Elsbeth herself is not. One reason Preston inhabits her fully enough to improvise such small, telling gestures is because she has been playing her for almost 14 years.

☆ ‘The Calling’ Review: A Mystery Show With Jewish Mysticism
▼ + stars: | 2022-11-09 | by ( John Anderson | ) www.wsj.com time to read: +1 min

Sherlock Holmes had unimpeachable inductive reasoning and a cocaine habit. Hercule Poirot had “enormous moustaches.” Avraham Avraham ? The creation of Israeli crime novelist Dror Mishani , Avraham (Jeff Wilbusch) begins his days in a shawl and tefillin praying on his roof near Brooklyn’s Williamsburg Bridge; when he says he grew up in Crown Heights, he means Orthodox Crown Heights. When he encounters a dead body on the street, as he does at the outset of episode 1 of “The Calling,” he murmurs holy words of Hebrew over the body. And when a teenager goes mysteriously missing, he sits on the boy’s bed, to better sense his subject’s whereabouts and, possibly, the unsettled spiritual-emotional atmosphere that may have inspired the disappearance.
