  • BARI - 3 DECEMBER 2019: A view of the historical center of  Bari, Italy, on December 3rd 2019.<br />
<br />
The orecchiette are Bari's trademark ear-shaped pasta.<br />
<br />
According to the mayor’s office, in mid October police inspectors busted a local restaurant for serving untraceable orecchiette, a violation of Italian and European Union regulations that require food in restaurants to be clearly sourced. The police fined the restaurateur and forced him to trash three kilos of pasta.<br />
The suspected orecchiette suppliers are permitted to sell small plastic baggies of pasta for personal use, but are not licensed to deal large, unlabeled shipments to restaurants. The fear in a city where many families have their go-to pasta lady, is that Italy’s zeal for regulations, however often ignored, risk shutting down a source of local pride that is one of Bari’s biggest tourist attractions.

The orecchiette are Bari's trademark ear-shaped pasta.<br />
<br />
According to the mayor’s office, in mid October police inspectors busted a local restaurant for serving untraceable orecchiette, a violation of Italian and European Union regulations that require food in restaurants to be clearly sourced. The police fined the restaurateur and forced him to trash three kilos of pasta.<br />
The suspected orecchiette suppliers are permitted to sell small plastic baggies of pasta for personal use, but are not licensed to deal large, unlabeled shipments to restaurants. The fear in a city where many families have their go-to pasta lady, is that Italy’s zeal for regulations, however often ignored, risk shutting down a source of local pride that is one of Bari’s biggest tourist attractions.

  • Tunis, Tunisia - 19 December, 2011: Lina Ben Mhenni, 28, cyber activist author of the popular blog "A Tunisian Girl" and teaching assistant of linguistics at the University of Tunis, is photographed in Tunis, Tunisia, on December 19, 2011. Her influential blog, which was censored under Zine El Abidine Ben Ali’s rule, was one of the most revealing and scathing criticisms of Tunisian society, focusing particularly on issues like women’s rights and press freedom. When unrest began in Tunisia in January 2011, Ben Mhenni began traveling across the country to take photos and video footage of both the protests and people she says were killed in the ensuing government crackdowns. She visited local hospitals and took pictures of those injured or killed by the police. She risked her safety as one of the only Tunisians to criticize the repressive government openly on international broadcasts before the “Jasmine Revolution" began. Described as one of the bravest bloggers in the world, much of Ben Mhenni’s writing focuses on freedom of expression and the rights of women and students.<br />
