Varsity Blues | The Admissions Game

The parents caught in Varsity Blues went to extraordinary lengths to get their kids into elite colleges. But the system was already tilted in their favor. Journalist Paul Tough explains how decades of rising competition, college rankings and enrollment management transformed higher education into a marketplace where wealth can open doors — and why fixing it may require changing the way America thinks about college itself.

Luciano Liggio: la Morte del Boss e il Trionfo di Riina | I Corleonesi S.1 E.8

Ma anche il più potente dei boss alla fine cade. Condannato all'ergastolo per l'omicidio di Michele Navarra, Liggio trascorre gli ultimi anni tra il carcere di Fossombrone e Badu 'e Carros, mentre Totò Riina subentra definitivamente al vertice dei Corleonesi. Questo ottavo episodio della serie ne racconta l'inesorabile declino: dall'omicidio del giudice Cesare Terranova e del maresciallo Lenin Mancuso nel 1979, alle sotterranee tensioni con Raffaele Cutolo durante la prigionia in Sardegna, fino al definitivo isolamento e al passaggio di consegne a Riina, evento che sancisce la fine di Liggio come figura dominante e consolida il potere assoluto dei Corleonesi in Cosa Nostra fino alla sua morte nel 1993.Questo video ha scopo puramente informativo e documentaristico.

The Age of Jackson | Washington Burns

In August 1814, the White House burned. A fire that would eventually consume the entire nation in Civil War was already burning. This is Antebellum America. This is the adolescence of the United States, when the country grew at tremendous speed, and when fundamental questions about the kind of place it would be were being asked. Like, could the states put their individual differences aside to remain one country? And could this new country live up to its lofty ideals, especially when it came to issues like slavery or the treatment of Native Americans? Welcome to the Age of Jackson.
