Funny Things To Write On Birthday Cake

NEW OFFICE, OLD PROBLEMS

The recent elections have confirmed the left to the city government and the District Navile, making them even register a significant drop in approval rating of around 10%.
This is because certainly in the last five years was carried out by us in the center-right opposition combative and focused on the real everyday problems of citizens, and because the political majority in the district and municipality has not been able to give the right answers to these problems.
Now with Delbono, we expect concrete solutions.
When you are doing but little, if not the usual routine: vague and general approval of documents, delays in the settlement of the Boards of the Quarter, not at all restrictive measures regarding traffic, public parks, cleaning, maintenance of roads and sidewalks, culture and security of citizens. In
Bolognina for example, by the Ark and its surroundings, there is stored for several months with the opening of the new headquarters of the City, then over time things are back more or less as before: dirt, decay, that the usual camp out and split, illegal immigrants with impunity, the usual fear!
is also important in late summer the petition signed by over 500 residents in Casaralta, pointed out the grave situation of insecurity and decay that lasts for years in the area: here shop, gypsies who wander undisturbed, lack of an appropriate area for sgambatura dogs, vandalism in the park Guido Rossa,
According to the crime ... institutions, is taking serious measures for years, but unfortunately those who live in the area do not see any improvement, and the petition is the proof! Evidently still nothing is done the right way, with the right firmness and constancy in due time.
remember the many concrete proposals in the last quarter we mandate of the center, containing proposals for: enhanced lighting, more police presence Order and the Municipal Police in the area, repeated checks to those who camp is split, more investigations and prosecution of offenses, the left has said no!
Unfortunately, we are still having to fight with the old problems unresolved, and the chatter of those who hide behind the usual excuse "is not the duty of the District and the City"

ANNIVERSARIES


Today is December 6, the first year of the sad absence of my father. I remember a solemn mass in the lobby of our club, here in the mountains fiery African forty degree heat. Missionary pioneers with the Italian accent of centuries ago who came here to spread the idea of \u200b\u200bequality to the people sacrificed on the altar of being overseas. A young monk, Venetian stamp reminds us that the tower of Babel we are building for Ethiopian brothers is nothing compared to what is ready for us for ever and ever .. Listening to this voice from afar, but then are attracted by the conviction of a Franciscan who accompanied the words with his hands and gives her an audience with confidence sleepy and no longer used in religious rituals, people who consume daily brutal selfishness of the white man telling herself the beauty of progress.

I love the idea that God is spoken of. You do not need God, Dostoewskij seems to tell us if you have an idea then you are God (I do not know why but I can not think of that in the act of suicide that Kirillov shouting 'God does not exist, I am God'). 'S an idea that led him here, and I admire him even though you may not believe what he says, but it is rare to find people in their own lives against the following idea. The rest is a slow slide toward the inevitable flattening, the idea of \u200b\u200bshared, community ..

I'm surprised to think of nihilistic, just that I did my banner of the socialist revolution of salvation and admired as a child that my father's blue overalls rattopata the capable hands of my mother's first factory on Monday. Born in the working class, surrounded by the miseries of Socialists who should be on their skin because they need to know the social, who are now aspiring to the luxury of catharsis as metaoggetto individualist? A Salvador Dali of beggars, a Carmelo Bene cowards who can not look to the red of Otranto without falling into madness. Blathers, once again, but today is a year that I feel my father is dead and something inside me moves like an aborted fetus in the womb of the mother.

Difference With Cold Sore Impetigo

Teatro Sagunto - will not be demolished!



Sagunto's theater is located halfway between the city Acropolis, between the historic center today and what remains of the castle, built on the ruins of the Roman forum was hired as an objective fact and as a basis for the project. In addition to the presence of ancient ruins Sagunto, that is an actual building, or what was left of it has become the touchstone for fat of the project, the new one has emerged as the presence of annihilating the old, and together they have always left to the ancient ruins answers that has not been able to give, and so the stage was rebuilt in its majestic abstraction, as if a door in the dual character of the unfinished monument, with the great plain and undecorated walls, brick, and urban scene, with large windows, small windows and metal railings, which follow directly fronts the houses in the historic center.

The restoration of the Roman Theatre of Sagunto travagliatissima had an affair. Published on almost all international magazines and won many architectural awards, was attacked hard from the beginning, especially for political reasons, the Polar Party and the English right, then in opposition. After 15 years it seemed that the controversy, and especially that requests for demolition of the magnificent scene in front, rebuilt by the architects and Portaceli Grassi, had finally silenced and a month ago but the final ruling of the Supreme Court of Madrid: the theater has to be killed and restoration to its condition, the alleged original of ruin. From

the news has been nearly two years. Two years of demonstrations, collecting signatures for two years (including this blog came from a substantial support against the demolition see the post in January and February 2008, notably that of Wednesday, January 30, 2008 "Collection of signatures against the demolition of the Theatre Sagunto), two years of claims by all national and international architectural culture and unlike what often happens in Italy (where we fill the mouth of the word democracy, whether it be local or parliamentary, but then the people will not be ever heard, I am referring to many special events and even local, but of course not limited to) maybe we have now: the Theatre of Sagunto is saved! Stipulates that a piece today on El Pais: El Tribunal Supremo cerrado el viejo culebrón of mucho más antiguo Teatro Romano de Sagunto. No se las obras de rehabilitación demolerán dirigieron que hare 20 años y los arquitectos Manuel Portaceli Giorgio Grassi, en la era of socialist último Gobierno valenciano .
A political battle between representatives of the English right, who had applied in the early 90s with a firm proposal to demolish the theater, and the Socialist Left and the international architectural culture, a cultural battle, a battle that finally, after about twenty years, seems to be over and that seems to have won over common sense, even the architecture and the theater will remain as is and will not be demolished.

I believe that the theater in Sagunto is one of the most extraordinary works of the twentieth century, a real manual of architecture in the broadest sense of the term, and for this I am sure it is right to have saved from what could be a real barbarity. For years, whenever I happen to go to Spain and Valencia in particular we look at the health of the theater, like the last time, as if to give him a final farewell, but luckily the theater was saved and this summer or the next or the next we can go there and maybe even our children to see this amazing work of architecture.
