Do You Get Shingles Around The Ankles

stand the Church speaks to Siena for a few

me an e-mail arrives as I write this post, in which the circle IDV "Peppino Impastato" my city apologizes for not giving everyone a chance to follow the intervention of Marco Travaglio to Santa Maria della Scala, across from the cathedral. In fact put two hurdles to channel the flood of people would have been useful, but there is little to criticize the young Italy of Values.
The administration of Siena (a Democratic Party majority , note well) it actually allowed the organization to have adequate space how could I say Piazza del Campo Independence Square but at least she would be enough to contain a couple of thousand people. A small table, a pair of amplifiers and the game was done.
But no: a thousand dies, a thousand bureaucratic corners, thousand denials, a thousand obstacles. It was not even allowed them to install a screen outside the Santa Maria to let those who would not be able to enter to follow the meeting. The reason was that the sound waves cause damage to works of art.

Score: yesterday evening in front of the cathedral were and passes a thousand people, including myself, who have remained in line for an hour and a half just to be seen slamming the door on . Safety reasons, they say. There are not enough emergency exits inside - when we were left queuing outside without a vigilant watch and without a barrier. The crowd grew angry and began to shout "Shame". Only the intervention of Mark's audio-only broadcast, among other things, to a low volume as to not offend the sensibilities of gentlemen administrators, managed to calm everyone down. We have not made a good impression.

I am writing this because people were pissed off last night with the organizers of course, that instead of faults have little or none. The town of Siena is always more than willing to provide space and funding when it comes to host events like the prize idiot Frajese or mob type Sgarbi, or if there is any event that has to do with just a smear the Palio. If there is to be received as a journalist Travaglio them critical you boycott.

Last night I stood on the steps of the cathedral with the iPad to write about what was happening and I start talking to some people close to them, as I am pissed. "But why have not they done in the square? is public land! " I say to a guy, who promptly takes me back to reality reminding me that the streets are not common, but their use is at the discretion of the municipality . Another way to make fun of preempted. In fact, the districts sawing in two squares, closed roads and make a mess shocking for the simple dinner, with music blasting a thousand but obviously does not damage any work of art - and that's fine. The town spends hundreds of thousands of euro to organize New Year's idiots with Laura Pausini and other amenities in the square of the field and not ruin any work of art, there is no problem of public order and so on. This is called prevarication, is called hypocrisy and above is called "Italians are so obviously good, but since there was no one who is pissed off.

Even in these things, a bit 'all over Italy to be honest, we lost a sense of what our rights. First and foremost the freedom of speech, it must include the right for all to hear that word .

When the Pope moves

Whenever the Pope does something, anything, news becomes news for us. Type of TG1 Minzolini, to name one at random. Tell any shit, do any step, regardless of the burp out of her mouth is an event. And do not give me too much trouble, would be material for fetishists of Benny 16. One thing that strikes me, however, the nervous system: in addition to eight per thousand colossal fraud with which we fuck tons of money to give to the Church and could be used for really important things like health care and research, there are also visits by the Pope in places forgotten by God (and therefore right there Ratzi them in mind). Every time you move, for unknown reasons, disappeared from state coffers million € . And I really do not understand how a face, even pledging to spend two and a half million euro, which is five billion old lire for a trip to London. The Ryanair has flights to the British capital that cost one euro, one could tell him. The thing that gives me a huge annoyance is that these are not his money but taxpayers' money, that is, those who wake up at 7 am to go to break his neck in the workplace - those who still have the good fortune of bringing this - money given away in spades, because his holiness can move your ass from Rome and go around half the world to proclaim its truth: condoms do not defend AIDS, homosexuals may well exist as long as he is ashamed and hide in a corner praying for flood and earthquake victims in various unfortunates without giving up a penny and so on.

if we must pay him a trip the next time I demand that we choose the travel agency: that is low cost, and whether one-way trip .

Is Wm.roger And Son Silver Real

subjects, not citizens: the end of the school

School. Education. Culture. It seems that in times of crisis, these words unwilling to say anything, they sound almost accessories, rather than fundamental means to redress social which they are. As in many parts of the poorer south, where hunger keeps you from thinking your stomach is full, and then you realize that an empty stomach can not be free, even in thought. And this is also the bedrock on which the primary sprout mafias, corruption and crime. After twenty years of Berlusconi
we finally got to see another of the devastating effects that this culture has produced skewed: the cancellation of education, research and universities. And we're talking about public universities, as in the private, personally, do not rely not even a hundredth of a euro, at least not in the country where 90% of so-called "large" private companies have always been unsubstantiated by the parasite, sucking away whatever they could on it for their own interests ourselves, only to beat the system highly country. A striking example of this is recent and comprehensive: the first signs of crisis or so companies package it up and move abroad, not just to survive because they survive well here too much because if you can take advantage of the poor bastards in Romania or China who makes you do to work the Italians? Given that the state allow it, the curtains rise, even if this means putting thousands of street families. The important is to make profit, always and at any cost. And we're supposed to entrust these private grants are the future of the University?

In an increasingly bleak we have forgotten the deeper meaning of culture, research, knowledge. Ignorance and empty stomachs made us forget that these are the main instruments of social redemption, at least in a world where the only values \u200b\u200bleft no money, women and power and the highest aspirations are doing tronista (ie a tamarro) or tissue (or a slut ) or prostitute giving himself thrown to the dragon to get some advantage. Inattention in general, except for those inside of the school work, is consumed the breakdown of the future of new generations . This thing also has a nice side effect, of course, from start to exit so-called school subjects, not citizens. Ignorant, ungrammatical, without knowledge, corrupt or corruptible, unable to think for themselves . In short, perfect for perpetrating this sick society that we have almost twenty years under his nose. At least one generation has already been burned by this whole system: if you're 16 and you're on the balls of school is one thing, but if more than 20 years the vast majority of children continues to screw through to the top of the priority Recommendation pushing, ass-licker and company, then we're screwed . I fear it is exactly what is happening, and it will take many, many years to remedy this state of affairs. The Cultural Revolution repeatedly invoked and evoked lost oxygen and the land on which to put their roots, at least for now.

How many times, trying to reason with someone on the topic, did you feel to respond - or you've got yourself tempted to say - "so it works? Usually I will respond by:

No. In Italy it works. Of course, the whole world is country and around the world there is crime, recommendations, injustice, corruption ... The fundamental differences are not powerful, it is the people. Berlusconi mind day after day for twenty years that the people should lead because it was voted, and nothing happens. Bill Clinton's mind when the American people about something that was really his business and his wife and politically destroyed. The difference is that the other parties are angry. Here we tend to forgive all, forget everything. Poor Italian people, frustrated and stoned by a gang of squads. So enough with this "works so well," must never work so . Things in one way or another, will have to change.

Manual Underwrite Mortgage

hypocrisy of the Democratic Party

The smoke on Bonanni has become a case of the State. There's even Brunetta that comes in and shoots her fucked daily, that lurks in the soul of the Democratic Party "core squad." Apart from the solemn boiata, as in the PD there is no soul but only a spastic hamster , not even looking in the mirror - gliel'avranno mounted too high - because it might crash into laughter. In my opinion they do, the heads of the PDL. Crashing into laughter. They can be called "squads" the comatose piddini. Berlusconi says that even "Fini thinks only about his aziendina. And nothing happens. I laugh all right for them.
A smoke flies and nearly a union that defines this, and it is natural to condemn the act. Violence must be condemned forever. But here on stage and drive away the protesters, saying that "we have nothing to do with" there runs.
There is one thing that perhaps those of the PD should know: that these are people who wanted to enter with you. It's people who for too many years waiting for a response from an opposition gangrenous, unable and inclusive when conniving with a power that is now crushing the people's daily lives. It's people who want a fucking left in Italy, and not a business committee. It is the people who know very well that Angela Naples right when he said he could not rule out a priori that many MPs are in parliament for homegrown sex merits against the great sultan and not politicians, and that he expected opposition to this indecency. Opposition that never arrives on time. On the other hand comes the indignant reaction of parliamentarians of the PDL, which feel strangely called into question.
You get the feeling that in PD Alberghino two ways of understanding the discussion, especially in the - supposedly - the role of critics: those who want to talk to the bass not to notice them is that our total shambles, and who wants to talk to the bass why not give a damn to object but rather to take advantage of situation. Any reference to D'Alema is purely coincidental.
In twenty years have not been able to say very clearly what he now says Fini, a former fascist - and we still have to figure out what ex - that for 16 years has supported and voted for Berlusconi all its shameful laws without exception, including the current electoral law and the inhuman Bossi-Fini law on immigration. In twenty years have not been able to resolve the monstrous conflict of interest Berlusconi, creandosene instead of their own. Have not been able even to explain - I fear deliberately - that the high-sounding buzzword "conflict of interest" translates almost directly to "steal" so that public opinion has never understood that the real cancer of democracy is that the current system that allows a coterie of a few to be outrageous and without any scruples or respect for others appropriated everything, including our most basic freedoms, using the so-called democracy to justify the looting. They are called P2, P3 or cracks does not mean anything, the idea is always the same. And often the same people are also , and will be a case that our current chairman of the board comes out in almost all these groups of thugs.
Twenty years later, by and by, we Berlusconi's hegemony and the PD had nothing better to do than invite the President Senate Schifani, which hang on very serious charges for acts of the mob, at his party in Turin, giving yet another joy to his constituents. do they expect?
Fassino was them that gave the young squad that whistled and shouted "Out of the mafia state." Brilliant. It did not even know why Schifani was booed in my opinion. Why does any newspaper except the Express and the fact he wrote nothing about the accusations of Mafia related Schifani. Maybe you will be informed later on. Then, not content
invite Bonanni, who knows better than to legitimize the work harder to live with the worst history of the Chinese are coming. In an environment where millions of people lose their jobs for political reasons first, he expected to be welcomed as a savior?
Again there to justify the bomb, but to understand its meaning. And the leaders of the Democratic Party would do if they knew what they were doing. But you can bet that we will arrive at the March elections - because he is sure that you go to vote now - with a PD that is not happy with the 5 million who lost votes in a handful of years to invent some other bullshit and further divide losing others. E mica for noble purposes, but probably just happy to take the mummies that dwell within its vertices. Who's sit down, I look out .

How Long Until A Head Injury Shows Signs

The difference between Social Network and shouts nonsense

not surprising that after OpenSocial see the light of the second major project to provide the API that allows developers to integrate their applications in a context of social networking, that most of you may know as the Diaspora. Just look at what Facebook has become, the network created by Mark Zuckerberg, who has become a social utility where publish all sorts of nonsense thereby obscuring - in part - the primary function for which, in theory, such an instrument must exist: make smart masses who are stupid by definition . Its power lies in its reputation, earned through both technical and functional merits, and is still used for more noble purposes of the whole world to know that "I'm hot when I pull out the pin from the deck." Newspapers and citizens, for example, use it as a megaphone to inform or scream their outrage that would otherwise not find another place to be heard by a wide audience.
The metamorphosis was possible, in my opinion, even sacrosanct due to introduction of new technical tools, such as the parser link that allows you to copy a simple link to share a snapshot with ease. This has encouraged the spread like wildfire all kinds of amenities, It is also the reason why Social netowrks who have retained their embryonic basic functionality, all on Twitter, have been used in widely lower this process or have not suffered at all. Write crap in micropost of 140 characters is one thing, to do that by posting any kind of media is another.
Another cause of the degeneration is aggregation. Think about it: the point where anyone, even completely fast elementary familiarity with computers, can create platforms such as blogs or personal sites - and this is good - Facebook has made it almost unnecessary these tools - and this is bad - except in particular cases. The reason, again, is very technical because other pre-existing social networks like MySpace had failed in that attempt. Case in point: this post is published on my blog , but not if it will spin no . The note generated from Facebook with RSS instead be seen as a minimum, over 300 people, which however does not bother to visit the blog. In this way, no need for giving priority to the summary content - not in the case of the notes but the link you posted - and there is more space for the study.

So as I see I well be open source projects that can give tools that work sharing between applications and not instead of them.
