CALL TO LATIN SCHOOL PROBLEM!

It 'started the tour in recent days the leaders of the PD's Latin in the schools of the city. The Town Clerk Giorgio De Marchis, and the parent to the District Council of Latina Scalo Fabrizio Porcari met with the Director of the 6th circle Ms Diana colong.
The meeting helped to analyze the various shortcomings of the building, most of which are due to the lack of attention in recent years by the municipal maintenance of school buildings.
"We need to face the great work - said De Marchis - played by head teachers, as in the case of Latina Scalo, to ensure the normal performance of the education service, there is an administration Municipal deaf and blind can not give any answer. "
Emblematic is the case of Latina Scalo, where because of water seepage in the ceiling that led to the detachment and fall of a part of the floor, the children of nursery school are forced to give lessons on the premises of the school canteen.
"The manager - added Porcari - reported several times the need for action, unfortunately, the City Council limited itself to make partial actions that did not solve the problem of infiltration that continue to be repeated annually.
What is happening in the nursery of Latina Scalo is no longer tolerable.
The PD will submit on Monday a motion in City Council and District Council with which we require to Alderman Public Works urgent action for the complete revision of the floor.
addition, the two leaders of the PD and the Executive have focused on other issues of the school system Latina Scalo which will focus on the political initiative of PD.
Indeed, Latina Scalo suffers from a chronic shortage of classrooms, partly because of the significant population growth driven by new urban settlements. The problem of shortage of classrooms will not be resolved with a promise to cannot get some new classrooms, which among other things we do not know when it will come true. To Latin America You must stop thinking of building a new school building.
"We are the paradox - that they De Marchis and Porcari - there are no classrooms, children are forced to take lessons on the premises of the canteen while the council approved a variant Zacchaeus urban allowing the construction of a residential building instead of the new nursery Latina Scalo.
The PD will submit a budget proposal to ask
1. the provision of a service school by the municipality to ensure the transportation of students between Latina Scalo in Tor Tre Ponti, since the service is currently supported by the school can no longer support him next year;
2. request construction of a covered link between the school and gym;
3. the immediate securing of the space in front of the school because of the schools in a state of absolute degradation.
The PD also will produce a White Paper on the serious problems of school in the nursery and primary schools in the capital. "We express our full solidarity with the headmasters who are doing a great job with great difficulty - said De Marchis - to which this administration has removed even the ground for minor maintenance was needed to solve at least the little problems."

Acqualatina AND WATER SYSTEM: A REAL NIGHTMARE FOR CITIZENS TO CALL LATINA!

A question which now assumes major importance in the area Latina Scalo is undoubtedly on the water and sewerage system. A village is constantly expanding, so that now counts 15,000 inhabitants, among other numbers on the rise. And as should be obvious, such a situation should have anticipated the need, as well as a schedule, an adjustment of basic services accessible to all citizens. And instead
this has not happened and is happening as would be expected, and several quarters among those who are born, are deprived of many basic services, making it virtually the dormitory suburbs.
This is particularly unacceptable if it deals with the discourse on the water and sewerage system, being was calibrated on a much smaller population of the present without adequate growth forecast, is clearly insufficient and wholly inadequate to the current situation. It 'been allowed the construction of many houses, issuing building permits without ensuring the effective possibility of adjusting the water system and the sewer to their needs. With the result that many areas now have problems with the sewer and receiving water at a low pressure limits, when not preclude the use. By making
spokesman disaffection among citizens, we in the PD by Saturday, November 15 in the square, and all other days at our headquarters in Via Padre Pio We will take care of collecting signatures to make the voice of citizens who require the construction of a second tank for the municipal sewage treatment plant and upgrading the water system to make it accessible to all and tailored to the demands of a growing area.
Concurrent with this initiative, the circle of PD Latina Scalo, will also collect signatures for the petition launched by the provincial directorate of our party that includes the request of a Board of Directors Acqualatina without the presence of politicians (the current president of Acqualatina Fazzone is receiving a stipend in addition to the senator), the region has direct control over the management of society and that respects the investment plan stipulated in the contract.
We aim to raise awareness on the part of the City and other Latin Acqualatina directly on a problem that now affects Latina Scalo too long. We think that the purification of water, an efficient water service and an appropriate cost of these services is a fundamental right of all citizens and for this we shall fight in the appropriate fora, the constituency to the Province through the city.

Gay Cruising Spots In Portland Mi

OPEN LETTER OF THE WORKING GROUP TO A MAJORITY OF PD Arrogant and presumptuous!

Congratulations on your poster and with the PD. We are extremely proud to know that we are discussing politically with a political majority, which administers our city, and uses a language "consistent" with his management style .. A political force that instead of dealing with real problems that exist in our country uses its resources to build personal attacks "infinitesimally small" .. Perhaps we have reached our goal: the manifesto against Anzalone is nothing but a demonstration of an inability on your part to handle the administration, to give concrete answers to the citizens.
If you had the foundations to meet the needs of citizens raised by Anzalone, if you had already taken concrete action to solve some problems you probably would have written more.
We take great care to raise problems, as the opposition .. is our job. We try to give voice to citizens as possible.
You, as a political force that would govern even the tools to do so immediately and instead think of a petition to raise awareness of your own political force ... There is something on which we invite you to think!
We hope from now on to discuss concrete issues, to confront the political field because we do not want to waste time to evaluate some of your actions that separate us from the purpose of the policy .. We do not want the citizens of Latina Scalo distance themselves from politics and lose trust in institutions and for matters useless without a specific goal other than to discredit a city councilor who is doing his job. We leave to others opinions and personal attacks!
We all have a political responsibility to citizens, and if someone prefers to devote more probably should be consistent and choose another field on which to challenge more suited to your style ...!

Hydroquinone Make Skin Darker

the Democratic Party announced a petition on the loan with Depfa Bank

The PD focuses on the case forces the water. We start with a public petition in support of a number of proposals to streamline the management of Acqualatina, as announced by the provincial secretary of the Democrats Loreto Bevilacqua. 'In the territory since 2002, the pontine
water service is managed by a joint venture public - private is failing to improve the management of the service. - Said Bevilacqua - The company in question since more parties are named as a caravan of seats policy that fails to meet the needs of citizens. We as a Democratic Party will be busy collecting signatures to promote a confrontation with the communities and territories with some reflection on the company's management and
support of regional initiatives that could lead to better management, more timely, more efficient and transparent
. Water is a public good we want to bring our positive contribution to this good could be used in the best possible way. " The petition states: support for the proposed regional law n.365 of 14/02/2008. This law introduces a form of direct control by the Lazio Region on the activities of the Area Authority and
service managers on procedures for the appointment of the technical secretariat. In addition, the Pd
ask that the decision of the pledge of shares for the loan with the public Depfa Bank passes through the city council, so that the councilors are informed
the possible financial loss resulting from such operations.

Application For Telephone Disconnection



One ideological reading of what is happening can make even someone talking about "misinformation" and "terrorism" and "lazy students" and other such nonsense. The reality is that a generation of peaceful, mature and eager to end the company of dwarfs and dancers that has been proposed for 20 years has taken over his life. This is the nonviolent struggle of which Gandhi has spoken, this is the strength of verità.Non enough to have a monopoly of televised Premier to soil the beauty of this instant, so beautiful and unexpected. Difnedere for their right to study, young Italians are finally emerged from the studies of "Friends" and "Men and women" and have their voices heard. Do not listen to it would be an unforgivable crime. The only sensible thing this government can do is withdraw the decree and admit that winning the election with the votes of older people dumb by Channel 4 does not mean you have the consent of the best part, younger and more dynamic paese.Certo The government will seek to harness even these flashes of conscience, but by 2008 this ottbre know for sure that there are still millions of Italians who do not keep their eyes open only to watch the TV premier.

Nylons With Black Dress

Depfa The power of truth, silence on the risks

Guidi (PD) does not trust the current contract for mutual Acqualatina
to question the chairman of the County: now the accounts themselves

They just set aside 'the case Depfa Bank and crops up rather more alive than ever a question submitted yesterday by Domenico Guidi Councilor to the President of the Province, Armando Cusani, and the parliament president Michael Forte. In its own way the application is simple and terrifying Guidi together. Councillor assumes that the German bank that granted the loan to Acqualatina spa is in poor condition due to the storm of financial markets and is being saved by a consortium of other banks, the failure to do this could cost you all policyholders Depfa including also the same
Latina Province as well as the management company of the water. For this guide calls for the precise quantification of deposits of provincial administration, municipalities and any other spa Acqualatina especially at Depfa Bank. "We want an update of the value of derivative contracts with Depfa - Guidi says - and I hope that there is reason and a willingness to tackle a subject that is likely to weigh heavily on the budgets of the Province of Acqualatina, municipalities and, ultimately, families pontine. Since
Depfa is going through a dark moment, however, the Province and many defenders of society (consumers dell'Otuc, Councillor consumers themselves and associations) have stopped supporting the goodness of this loan. It may be a case. But meanwhile, was also slowed down the procedure for signing the pledge agreement
"A question facing many citizens and administrators, what the province and municipalities are likely to fail if dell'Ato4 Depfa? - Highlights Drive - There are actually two types of risk: lose the numbers stored in the bank as a result provisions already made in capital costs for depreciation by way of bonds that expire in 2035-2040. But even more serious consequences could result from the fact that Depfa are
in derivative contracts on bonds issued in 2007 and Depfa fail if there might be in danger of being forced to close the contract and to pay the bank failure and loss that the Province Ato4 municipalities have in place at this time. But what is the total loss of the two risks? To date no one knows and, what is even worse, no one wants to say. For months that highlight the risks inherent in derivative contracts entered into in 2007. It 's time to provide some answers. "

How To Congratulate Berthday

The art of lying - by Paolo Soldini

As children we were taught that there are three kinds of lies. The lies are those who say they are playful "in jest and without injury to any 'Office are the lies" the claim of forgery for his own or another's benefit, without prejudice to any' malicious lies are 'the the false statement to the detriment of others. " The first two species, says the catechism, are venial sin, the third is a mortal sin if you do not confess you go to hell. The Code of Conduct does not cover the case of Christians, aggravating the lie told in public and taking advantage of its ability to be heard, for example in newspapers, on radio, on TV or in front of Parlamento.Esiste then (but there?) The court of public opinion. In civilized countries, when you judge the behavior of powerful rulers, politicians, civil servants, managers, large industrial centers, this court is hard on the liar "playful", condemns liars "office" and sends him home (at least) the liars "damaging." Lying in a public context is considered a serious fault. Richard Nixon was forced to resign because he had not authorized the spying at the Watergate, but because he claimed not to have heard anything. Bill Clinton risked impeachment not for its trade with Monica Lewinsky, but denied to them. Jacques Chirac has been accused would not be if not had lied to protect himself and his. A Helmut Kohl would have been forgiven if he had not traccheggiato illicit funds to cover those who paid the CDU ... The worst that can happen to a politician in the U.S., France, Germany, Brussels, Hague, Madrid is to be caught with the mouse in his mouth.
In Italy no. In Italy no one is looking for the mouse, even if it looks out from the pits of the teeth and makes hello hello with a leg. And sorcione had in his mouth the other day, when they carelessly Berlusconi Frattini told the European Council, on the delicate issue of greenhouse gases, "has heard our demands in full" and found "a solution that meets our concerns. "Some - including this newspaper - had sensed that something was not right, since the presidency of Sarkozy and the EU Commission stressed that the objectives and methods of" scaling "of the emissions were unchanged, but the range to explain to people that lie had been dished up. Why do you re-establish the truth of the facts, where the Italian information if the drinking without a shot being fired, had to intervene Environment Commissioner Stavros Dimas, "appalled" (his words) from unbearable lightness with which the Italian head of state and his foreign minister were groundless and false data tumbler security. ... It was the first time we have a minister Interior mind that whenever you need to make believe that those measures on foreign immigrants go through the 110 and the examination of relevant international praise. Days ago, the Chamber of Deputies, said that António Guterres, UN High Commissioner for refugees in Geneva last October 6 was "praised" Italy for its policy on asylum. False, but aside from the readers of this newspaper, many believe that if they have noticed? UNHCR representation in Italy have fallen from their chairs, but many, including Members of Parliament and in newspapers, made the easiest thing in the world: take the report and Guterres leggersela? So a review Italian public and the media, apart from the usual pain in the ass who consult the texts and phone calls to offices (ie: make the job of journalists), are convinced that the dangerous nonsense of the decree on foreigners last May-impressions of Roma children including - received the imprimatur of Brussels. It's a lie harmful, pernicious for Roma in Italy, but the minister Maroni has no fear of hell. Like most of his colleagues, some of which graphically also confirm the old adage that lies have short legs.
A fresh start from their head of yet another performance liars in Brussels. The strong attendance at the Great Seller Balle with all three kinds of lies is proverbial. But what I wonder, what makes the Italian opinion different from that of other civilized countries, is the lack of outrage and indifference with which we here establishment, media, political structures (often opposition) are drunk everything without complaining even more. Not (not just) a moral problem or a psychological question. And to want to explain this incredible indulgence with alleged "natural inclinations" of Italians in the light of feedback to the sins of the powerful will grab him, perhaps, bits of history and culture of our country, but do not give an explanation. A large part of this explanation, however, is political. In all schemes based on demagoguery, in any latitude, the rulers tend to the use of propaganda lies. The control of the media and little regard for the prerogatives of power between the parliament and the general cause a short circuit where you can pass everything. Millions of Europeans and educated civilians believed to be crazy like the Jewish conspiracy of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, because in the beginning, in Tsarist Russia, no newspaper had the strength to expose the hoax and then it was too late. Millions of Americans have drunk the official version (patently false) in the Gulf of Tonkin incident that began the Vietnam War because the mainstream press, for having the country, supported it. Millions of Russians believed that the kulaks were an imminent danger of counterrevolution. Millions of Chinese have seriously believed that the Cultural Revolution brought a wave of justice. You could, of course, go on for hours.
We are not at that point. Of course not. But the mechanisms that have been set in motion are not, then, so different. If the common sense of the country, the information system and the opposition lost the ability to ascertain the truth, to examine the facts using any sources if they continue to minimize the consequences rapidly become uncontrollable. A huge risk, especially at a time when The new Great Depression claim the maximum of the credibility of those who have the responsibility of the government. And the system, one shot after another, the credibility is already lost. Outside our borders has already lost: "Ah, Italy ..."

Where Can I Get A Fake Desert Eagle

The people of the primaries has been lost - I. The center diamond

E 'spent just a year after the primary that elected the secretary of the Democratic Party Walter Veltroni, with a constituent assembly composed of a few thousand people. The final destination of the Olive by Romano Prodi after 12 years of sailing. On October 14, 2007 went to the polls nearly three million people. While the first two years participation in the primaries that had sealed the nomination of Prodi ahead of elections 2006 was found to be even larger. More than 4 million. But then the consultation covered the entire center-left coalition. In both cases, however, the primaries have made extraordinary opportunity for participation. Millions of people lined up in front of makeshift polling stations to sign a declaration of membership. Willing to pay to vote. A sign of the vitality of civil society that is contrary to imagine - and theorize - a democracy tired, made up of citizens' indifference, for which the rite of election is enough. E 'too. The answer to the primary showed - shown - that people are silent because they have good reasons and worthwhile opportunities to express themselves. Moreover, the primary should not be confused with an expression of direct democracy. They are, however, closely linked to representative democracy, as used to select and legitimize the ruling class parties or the candidates for election to public office. However, despite the festivities are celebrated every day the most unlikely, the anniversary of the primaries was accompanied by a strange silence. Broken by some contributions in the press area. And any action by the Democratic Party and its surroundings. How to start Youdem, TV party wanted by Veltroni. A Democratic convention in Paris. This silence reflects, perhaps, a certain desire for removal. Fed, first, by the election results in April. If the primaries are in the genetic code of the Democratic Party, the defeat has, to some extent reduced the role. The gap between the participation of a year ago and the extent of electoral defeat has led to great disappointment. Hence some, perhaps unspoken, desire to forget. The defeat and his previous ones. The temptation to exorcise the disappointment of the election result by removing - forgetting - the illusion produced by the primary. However, imagine a victory in elections in April, was unrealistic, given the level of distrust towards the government and the social center. So the lack of attention around the primary has other reasons. Partly reflects the difficulty of the project implicit in the primaries. The construction of a party open to confrontation with society, can foster the formation and renewal of the ruling class. The primaries as an indication of the method. As a brand new model of party and democracy. We can not say that they have produced the expected results. The Democratic Party remains an unfinished project. The primaries have not become a general method for selecting the board. So far, nationally, have been used only to give investiture popular choices already made by the elites (Prodi before, so Veltroni). The Constituent Assembly, elected a year ago, however, met a few times and already seems to have concluded its mission. The primaries, however, were not used to choose candidates policies. Neither the mayor of Rome. Because of the short time frame, he said. A real problem. That, however, seems to have been greeted with relief groups leaders, worried by the emergence of some surprise, by definition, unwelcome. In general, at central and local bodies and elected the Democratic Party among the most important positions in the usual suspects always prevail. The party leaders who originates: the DS and the Margherita. Which often operate separately, as two specific entities (as noted by a change research organization of the "new" parties at local level led by Terence Fava, University of Urbino). The distribution of tasks is also membership on the basis of "partisan" (and current: in alemiani, rutelliani, popular, veltroniani ...). So, the primaries tend to become a problem, why complicate the balance of power between former parties, current leader. At the central level and local level. Especially if you can not control the outcome. If they can give, that is, unexpected results. And so disliked by leaders. As we have noted on other occasions: Obama, the flag of the democratic myth and Italians, in Italy could never prevail. To emerge. Too young: even fifty years! Out of the laps that count, controlled by Clinton. And then, in the U.S. (and others), hard to establish itself with the dark complexion ... I mean, is not "planned." In Italy, at the most would be appointed to represent the rights of immigrants, some municipal government, at most, in some government commission. Even those who speak of "no confidence" Veltroni, on the other hand, think they replace him with someone else of the "usual suspects". Co-optation or conspiracy. Sanchita - but only after - by popular vote. Which outlines a model of democracy undemocratic. A result inconsistent and somewhat ironic, given that the project giving rise to the Olive Tree, the Democratic Party primary aims and the exact opposite. Set limits to this custom and democracy at the same time impersonal. Tax on items "without society." Centralized, identified in the leader. The circles of leaders chosen on the basis criteria of fidelity and image. A democracy in which the mediation with the company was held by the media. The television, in the first place. Where contact with the "people" is through episodic and ocean baths crowd demonstrations. This is a format invented and imposed by Silvio Berlusconi, who adapted and redesigned, in its way, these trends - often dominant - in the West (and beyond). The French philosopher Bernard Manin has summarized in the formula of "democracy of the public." Sarkozy himself has imitated many traits. Some commentators have spoken of an "berluskozysmo. The PD is born to fight it on his land. But there seems to be successful. In particular, there appears to be able to oppose the drift of democracy that excludes voters from every choice of who should represent them. A representative "democracy" only in words, because the representatives will decide the oligarchy that controls. And, with these rules and with these parties, will command forever. Since the electoral law, policies, does not provide for preferential voting. And the size of constituencies to prevent a direct relationship with the elect (who could be in the majority of college). Since, moreover, is preparing a law with similar characteristics for the European elections. With high electoral threshold and the abolition of preferences. To prevent a snag. Some unwelcome list. Or worse: some candidates are not decided at national level. By now, only in local elections (municipal, provincial, regional) responsibility of the elected and the electorate is clear. But it is likely that, soon, will also address such anomalies. The PD, beyond the good will does not seem able to oppose this society without party politics. In this democracy that limits the power of the citizen in an exercise that takes place - and ends - once every few years. When the voter puts a cross on a card. And it all ends there. Until next time. That is the anniversary of the primaries would be a good opportunity. To remember - to remember. What the Democratic Party should be. But that still is not - and we do not know if they ever become. To remember - to remember. What could become of our democracy. Based on closed party - to society and the "circulation of elites" (to quote Pareto). A poor democracy, for a few close friends. It could have been, but it was not an occasion to remember. This anniversary ended how it began. Indifference.

P2p Without Get Caught

and policy announcements that degrades the intelligence of the citizens

The circle of the Democratic Party of Latina Scalo inspired by the posters that the center attacks from all sides these days, stating that there is more law and order and security in the city in the province. It 'easy this set forth of what happens when you try to not talk about or even promises that in Latin there is no crime, only to deny themselves a private research and decide on the presence of crime in the territory of the cost of 70,000 € in spite of the institutions venues such as the judiciary and police. Too bad for them that the newspapers long since denounced the critical situation in terms of legality and safety talk of violence to individuals, talk of Mafia intimidation, talk about the spread of usury, in one month weeks there have been three robberies at many supermarkets (Lidl and Eurospin) and an attempted theft a jeweler of the airport, in recent weeks has returned to shoot the street, reality tells a citizen who lives and demonstrates that many parts of the territory are out of control. You do not understand why we continue to tell a truth that there is, that even offends people's intelligence. We live in a city where the administration is now in bankruptcy (The budget crisis threatens to blow up the council), where taxes have increased dramatically (TIA PIT +38% +55% +45% school cafeterias) where there are € 5 million of debt off-balance and what to do? The advertisements, the usual politics of image. A serious management sa that there is only one type of security, but also to have a plan for the future, which means work, good facilities, infrastructure, commitment to the environment. For years, you wait all this, the result is dramatic and is visible to all, employment is the collapse, the majority of companies are closing or have closed, leaving hundreds of families on the street, from this point of view c 'is now the desert, there is talk of more than 20,000 unemployed in the province. The services do not work, just think of those of which the town is the controller, see Acqualatina Environment and Latin America, a company created to efficient services and lower tariffs but are full of debt , And in recent years have thought of doing otherwise perfectly worse service and they will have to pay the public debt. Roads are mostly rough and you do not see how to fix since you beat the case. We think that before this is the real image of the city and many parts of the province, which shows that in recent years there has been a lack of accountability and a lot of inertia, is not very edifying to speculate on the truth and that it would not exist much more responsible to apologize to those citizens for long delays and do not waste any time telling the country that is not there. These days the Democratic Party is intensifying its action, in the Government, through analysis item by item on the budget that is not persuasive, both on the ground, which will culminate with the demonstration of next October 6 where you strongly denounce the reckless decision to raise taxes to further weaken the incomes of citizens and highlights the lack of an economic policy that seriously bring out the city and the province from this disastrous situation

How Write An Invitation For Death Anniver

After the farce, a mockery of the kits for different

At the end of June, a month late, the Councillor was announced to the environment, which started distributing door to door kits for differentiation. At that time the Democratic Party denounced the inconsistency of the operation as many citizens did not receive the material for two main reasons: The first concerned the fact that the Company Environment Latin had not updated the lists, and many data were incorrect and the second concerned the fact that it has not been made a programming kit for the distribution of the vast majority of citizens found the notice in the mail that warned them that they have not been found in the house were going to get the kit home to Via dei Monti Lepine. The termination of PD related to Latin America in particular that it was inappropriate that the elderly and disabled were forced to go to the site to find the material. Today comes the final insult, that is, if people want the kit for the separation shall not go to home. It 'clear that the citizens there are in this game, and argue strongly that, if they contribute to the improvement of recycling, the company that runs the service must provide the means to that end and also address the Council for the Environment opportunity to carry out controls in the delivery of programming kit, on pain of rubbish bags will be put in any. The poor organization of a service, not for now, can not continue to fall on the citizens. The Democratic Party shares the anger of citizens because of the failure. In the coming days alderman will ask what are the intentions of the And check if it is possible to start the service with proper planning.

water to private bills to wear. The new gold and blue

More precious than gold, more profitable oil. In Italy the water, primary commodity, to be a fundamental right is turning into a commodity for corporations. An increasingly lucrative business. Over the past five years the rates have increased an average of 35 percent. Growth second only to oil. And the daughter of a savage privatization, done in the name of a false efficiency. Obtained, often with the complicity of the public institutions, incompetence or negligence, have left the appetites of private control and managing the water system.
The turning point came on January 5, 1994 with the Galli Law (later merged in April 2006 in the Environmental Code), which is enacted with the aim to simplify the management of public water, then shared between nine thousand different subjects well . 91 Ato are defined (optimal territorial areas) or areas related to the provision of water services. Each ATO is under the control of local authorities. They, however, often have the dual role of shareholders alongside the private sector. What a potential market of € 8 billion they stick it headfirst. As "Acea" or the French multinationals "Suez" and "Veolia", which crosses between management and equity, you are eating slices of territory to almost zero cost. Because individuals do not invest or invest little in the water. Not even 10 per cent of the amount due.
As the Antitrust Authority for the water to assist the replacement of public monopolies with private monopolies. A trend accentuated by the Tremonti Law of 6 August 2008 which makes it even more complex a return of local management. Many, in fact, now the vorrebbero.Contro this trend is fighting the "Movement for the Public Water" the II National Forum which will meet in mid-November. Our journey around the world, water privatization, however, is concentrated in Lazio and Tuscany. Two regions symbol, for years the point of attachment to the water service.
Rebels Aprilia
In via Aldo Moro 45, arrived in three, good morning. I got out, went up to the box of water meters, have identified that the editorial staff of "The Coffee", a small but fierce local biweekly, and applied the pressure, a device that chokes the tube dispenser transforming in a kind of dropper. The device is just the latest weapon used by "Acqualatina", the company that manages the water supply in southern Lazio, in its war for water management in April.
"Acqualatina" was founded in 2002 as a joint enterprise: 51 percent of shares belong to thirty-eight municipalities in the area (4 Ato del Lazio) and, therefore, formally the majority is public. But in reality they are individuals, led by the French multinational company "Veolia" to run the business and investment decisions.
The new company takes control of the waters of Aprilia in 2004 without the city council has approved the "management contract" which, among other things, should specify the system for the calculation of charges to users. However, for a year, no one notices. "Acqualatina" does not care neither read nor a census of the counters. The amount of the bill remains the same as in public management.
The blow on users comes a year later. Apply new tariffs and new criteria for calculating consumption. Housewives and retirees are seen delivering bills with amounts equal to double and even triple what they had always paid. There are cases in which the inflation touching 3000 percent. Helen Francis, owner of a bar in June 2005 he received a bill for nearly three thousand euro for the annual consumption of his club. To public management had never paid more than € 600.
The senseless privatization led to the creation of the Committee for the Defence of public water. "We decided - explains Mauro Pontoni, the founder - to pay the bills directly to the City apply the tariffs set by CIPE in June of 2004. " Are on average less than 250 percent of those claims by "Acqualatina. Soon the movement comes to collect seven thousand people, roughly half of the total. But the company management does not recognize the validity dell'autoriduzione. The money remains frozen in the current account, while local citizens, the private company, are in arrears.
The fact is that "Acqualatina" is more or less what he wants. The Conference of Mayors, to which the law entrusts the task of control is absent. Indeed there is, but on the other side of the fence. When the company was founded, the Chairman of the Board shall be a representative of public institutions, the CEO is a manager of the "Veolia". And it's all over the board of directors of the local political elite.
a partial consolation for angry people, 23 January 2008 to end arrests six officers of the company from its CEO and former president of the province, Paride Martella, past UDC Italy of Values, said Roberto Alessio Legambiente, "in overnight."
But despite the intervention of the courts administrators remain in place and "Acqualatina" goes on in his war against the defaulters. By threatening to close the pipeline, implemented, along with bulldozers and armed vigilantes and, more often, as the case of "The Coffee", by sending technicians armed with gear. The latest victim, a retired resident via Amsterdam. When the engineers were presented by threatening to turn off the water, had taken ill and was hospitalized. The
"Ferrarelle" of Collelavena
When welcomes us on the veranda of his house in Collelavena, a hamlet of Alatri, province of Frosinone, the jar is already in plain sight on the table. Monica Ascenzi, thirty from mahogany hair and strong face, you keep ten centimeters of water. Or so the caller. Why not seem to water. On bottom of the jar there is a layer of white limestone and white as snow, two centimeters high. Monica takes the jar, shake the water turns into milk. "It's like a liquid rock. He wants a drink? ".
The strange phenomenon has its origins in September 2007. To meet the periodic water shortages in an area that is also rich sources, "the ACEA ATO 5, the private company that manages water resources for the area of \u200b\u200bFrosinone, began to supply the homes of 450 families using Collelavena water from a communal well. The well reaches a depth of 350 meters and therefore should be equipped with water softener. But "Acea ATO 5" does not shall fix it. "At first came out sparkling water. It seemed Ferrarelle "says Monica.
But the illusion did not last long. "Within two days the milk has become Ferrarelle. Milk of rock. " Before starting to clog the pipes of the shower. A wheel is broken boiler, washing machine and dishwasher. When the animals start to die, "dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens," Monica decided to act. Despite assurances from the mayor of Alatri Migliocca Constantine, who works as a gynecologist, is to analyze the water in the laboratory of ASL. The answer is disturbing: the tap out a liquid that has a hardness of 77.5 degrees in France. For human consumption is recommended a hardness between 15 and 30 degrees and the absolute upper limit is set at 50. Monica and the other inhabitants decide to stop using water from the network, or to eat or to wash.
"The softener Collelavena - Severo Lutrario explains, the observatory" Peppino Impastato "Frosinone - is just one of many under-investment of ACEA ATO 5. Yet the company, owned 92 percent by Acea, had established in the "Area Plan", that is the basis of the tender for the privatization, to invest more than € 344 million in facilities, sewers, mains. A quarter of the figure would be realized by the first five years. "But if they have" yards " about six - said Fulvio Pica president of the district Cottorino Hill - Our Lady of the Snow - but that does not mean that they were made then. "
The fact is that the investments are, by law, to determine the final rates. What area of \u200b\u200bFrosinone in the next six years, since the management has been privatized, are sketched above. For the "band facilitated, ie the lower one, said Pica," the increases exceeded the rate of 95 percent of the award and even 250 percent of the old rates of Commons. " Lack of investment, of course, have a social cost. Acea does not guarantee the 150 liters per day of potable water provided per inhabitant the Convention. "Some areas of the city - says Lutrario - suffer periodic interruptions in service. Get home and find you and no water. " Who can afford it was equipped with tanks, others line up in front of the fountain where the only consolation, high spring water flows. In a row, as it was sixty years fa.L 'also did Monica for about nine months until the Acea has placed the water softener. It 'happened a month ago. "Today I go there less because at least I can wash at home. But no drinking, just do not think. " From under the table pulls out another jar. On the label the date is September 2008. The bottom of the limestone is reduced to half a centimeter.
go back? The case of Arezzo
Donatella Bidini has a particular store. Neither data nor the file, but bills. His water bills for the last ten years. "Here look. In 1998, public management, I paid 173 thousand pounds a year. Today I pay 800 € with the same consumption. "
Arezzo everyone wants to go back ten years ago when he decided to enter the private management. Within a quarter in the city and in many other municipalities in the area, rates increased by an average of 45 percent.
The story begins in 1998 when, to manage the Ato number 4 of Tuscany, which includes 37 municipalities (33 of which are Arezzo, Siena 4) creates the "New spa waters." As with Aprilia, this is a joint enterprise. To be most common form with 53 percent, and the rest to private management. And even here the lion's share is a French group. Not "Veolia", this time, but "Suez", another world leader. In society come to two Italian banks: the population of Etruria and Monte dei Paschi. With
"Nuove Acque spa" provides the multinational Suez profitable relationships. Especially through the "technical advice", a heading which includes "transfer of the assets of know-how and professionalism." Whose value was originally set at six billion lire, in a few months rises to almost eight times to reach 45 billion.
Individuals direct the game. Moving money, win contracts and apply high tariffs. And, through project financing, also obtained the formal control of the company. "In 2005 - says the mayor of Anghiari Daniela Bianchi -" Nuove Acque SpA "decide a number of investment projects. To do so are a lot of money. " Seventy million. Not all subscribe to the common project. Those who do are forced to apply for funding. And it Popolare Etruria and the Monte dei Paschi, the two Italian banks members of the "Suez" to pay. Apply a rate of interest, variable, seven per cent, or three points higher than that charged by the state with the Cassa. As the banks require collateral pledged to the municipalities that subscribe their shares in "New Waters". And that's it. The company is now controlled by private individuals.
Arezzo trying to organize a movement against the high-water fails, but some citizens still decide to go it alone. One member, Maria Rossi, refuses to pay the bills and fixing door "New Waters" in court managed to get a refund. The
to court is a road that some of the common (as the Upper Tiber Valley, of all political colors) is planning to take to return to public management. «Back can and must go back," says Charles Schiatti, former president 'sorry' for New Waters. "I went in 2003 with a report where I said everything." And, among other things: "We must have the courage to say that we were wrong. The water service can not be privatized. Or in part, because public administrators are not ready to compete with the manager by profession, or at all. Experience has shown that the integrated service must remain public. Honour to those who had understood before. "

I Need A Catch Phrase For A 21st Birthday Party

the piper, the fools and the ace of Colaninno - by Eugenio Scalfari

THE hot topic now is Alitalia, but the theme just not hot just as fiery and fiscal federalism. The combination is explosive in itself but as not enough is placed in an extremely tense political landscape and disturbing: a series of ads, bills, acts of political, administrative and only have all the unique effect of increasing tensions , exacerbate conflicts, to show his face fierce and the desire to take a hand in the name of a slogan that has become a "master key". The slogan was invented by the Minister of Interior, which repeats it to front and back as a kind of tic, to leap, and is "zero tolerance". It has become the juice of programmatic government and its majority. Apparently it works, and surveys in favor of the "premier" have peaked. People want you declare zero tolerance for anyone using their rights of freedom in the sense not to comply with common sense now in vogue. Then the zero tolerance realize the desired results or not, this does not stop the shock wave of a strategy "steamroller" typical of the last hundred years in European history as often as authoritarian impulses have, in the name of higher interests of order and safety, restricted the rights of citizenship. We hope that the "trend" does not lead us beyond the current limit of populism and fables told to the people to distract him, but this sort of collective hypnosis, however, leads to reflections worry at a time when you redraw the political map and economy in the world. Zero tolerance, the abolition of that law on prostitution Merlin, dismantling of the compulsory public school without a plan that makes sense, increasing pressure on the powers and independence of prosecutors, electoral laws that strengthen the power of confiscating any equipment right of choice for citizens, disregard of constitutional values \u200b\u200bmore sensitive clericalism return and impoverishment of Christian values \u200b\u200bin a renewed alliance between the church hierarchy and political power, pollution mutual between politics and business, revaluation of fascism on the part of ministers and mayors in office, this is the alarming backdrop of this season. The crisis of Alitalia and the unknown fiscal federalism represent points of maximum tension and lack of planning. Not fancy, but the amateur is now in power. It is not the first time that happens in our country where, unfortunately, the memory is weak and fails to become a mature experience. Minister Tremonti, in his long reconstruction of the disaster Alitalia exposed before the relevant committee of the Chamber and subsequently reproduced in its full text on 24 hours on Friday and yesterday, he began by saying: "Let's leave aside the comparison with the conditions of Air France last April, was another setting and operation of any other nature. " Let us follow him in this his initial recommendation, but not without pointing out that the offer Air France-was rejected by the combined provisions of the refusal of the unions, the campaign unleashed by Berlusconi against that project and by the insistent pressure in favor of a so-called tri-color rope sponsored by Banca Intesa. If today we are all faced with a "Malpas" The responsibility lies in that refusal is due to two parties (unions and Berlusconi) and the presence of a stone guest waiting in the wings (Banca Intesa). For Tremonti instead entirely on the responsibilities incumbent Prodi and Padoa-Schioppa, according to him, unable to grasp the key to the problem and conclude. I think there was an inertia of Prodi as there was more serious, the issue of garbage in Naples. But forget Tremonti at least two essential steps occurring during the Berlusconi government and its presence at the Ministry of Economy. The first step is the evaluation of Alitalia's capital: the stock market was worth about € 10 in 2001 and 1.57 in 2006. Tremonti has disputed these figures, but 24 hours of 11 September, the bank has re-checked with data from Thomson Financial and certified the accuracy. In five years term of the assets of the company's flight has therefore lost the 9 / 10 of its asset value. The figures are not opinions and do not need comments. The second step concerns the proposal of the administrator of Alitalia, Mengozzi, appointed to that office by the Berlusconi government, and then by the same Tremonti. Mengozzi had in mind a merger with Air France. Had negotiated a long time and had successfully negotiated the merger was made by attributing to the 30-35 percent of Alitalia's capital of French network. However, the government rejected the proposal. Even here there is little to comment, the facts speak for themselves. * * * Which brings us to today. The government issued a decree a few days ago that Alitalia splits in two: the company controlled by the Treasury in the hands of all debts, personnel, fleet, flight rights and little money left in cash, a company largely failed, entrusted by the Treasury to the Commissioner in accordance with the rules of the Marzano law specifically revised to better fit the Alitalia case. Next to scrap a new Alitalia company brand new institution, with 18 shareholders, a President (Roberto Colaninno) and CEO (Sabelli), purified from all liens, and ready to merge with Air One. Based on the Marzano law this company beautiful young daughter of a dying mother and old, can detect all the pulp and that Alitalia's planes for the implementation of the plan, route, flight crews and ground necessary. The redundancies will be in the parent company, as well as debts and exuberant personality. The price considered fair by both sides would be around 450 million euro. The capital put together by 18 shareholders (all Italian) exceeds one billion. The name, brand new, and airlines Italian (Cai). Air One will merge with it and its owners will obtain 300 million in Cai bringing the fleet, routes, options for the purchase of new aircraft, the flight crew. The administrator of Air One, Toto, enters the capital of Cai with 120 million and sits on the board. The Berlusconi government, particularly, is excited: one hundred and twenty days in the Italian consortium has materialized, the Alitalia case is resolved, everything has been planned: the suspension for six months of the antitrust rules, a benevolent availability of the Brussels Commission to give the disc Green operation, the enthusiasm of the shareholders of Cai. Many of them - in blatant conflict of interest - Are happy to be adequately compensated by some underhand business. The administrator of Banca Intesa, to become "advisors" of the operation shareholder Cai, before the objection is not clear on the business of many of my fellow climber has said that "conflicts of interest will be managed." The head of antitrust called into question by Senator Zanda did not respond. Bonanni Cisl expresses willingness to cooperate. In short, everything seems to be booming. Of course the Treasury will have to bear many burdens: the debts of the old Alitalia, the redundancies of about 7,000 units in one thousand drivers, but the honor is saved, future losses are not provided, the redundancies will be dealt with existing social safety nets. But the focus is in the resurrection of the national airline and flag renovated, a substantial cut to the original shareholders, the entry of a foreign carrier with a share capital not exceeding 120 million. What more could you want? Berlusconi where it touches the miracle. The consensus of the Italian distracted and addicted (which is currently the large majority) are the stars. Tremonti declared: "The government's honeymoon with the Italians will last a long time, we are preparing to celebrate the silver anniversary." But no. A few hours after the celebrations broke out the storm. We've been through and still do not know yet how it will end. * * * The Government and together with it, the commissioner of Alitalia, Fantozzi, president Cai, Colaninno, the leader of the CISL, Bonanni, had forgotten the question "contracts". Or rather, if they were not forgotten but had considered an easy solution. Employees - they thought - they have no alternative: if you do not accept the conditions offered by Cai, the new company will withdraw, Alitalia will fail, perhaps more than 20 000 people, considering the induced labor, should be mobile, hall of dismissal within a few year. So accept it. But the contracts, to enable CAI to fly at a profit, they must achieve a reduction of costs by 30 percent and an equal increase in productivity. Either that or nothing, give or take. The redundancies have long cushions and lanes preferred to be relocated, but the contracts and productivity there is no margin. On the other hand were just the pilots to sink the offer by Air France. So if they are desired. He who sows wind storm gathers. And then the market is the market. Instead, pilots, flight attendants, the hard core of employees, there are. Sounds like a cabal, but with each passing day we see that no, not the usual scripted sindacalese. The pilots eventually rise from the table and leave. Berlusconi calls Colaninno, Sacconi called unions, Matteoli called the pilots, Passera calls all, but the question now seems closed: Cai confirms that it can not make changes to its platform, the pilots confirmed that those conditions is useless to continue. Berlusconi has a moment of distress, but then returns to the battle still has a card to play and play.
At 14 yesterday, Saturday, Fantozzi meets the unions and announced that we are at the end: there is no longer a € in cash, fuel suppliers have indicated that no more supplies on credit will, from now on, the Alitalia fleet can count only on the few existing reserves in the deposits. As a result starting from tomorrow Monday will be canceled some flights and staff will be laid off. The flights will be canceled 34. The other and soon the entire fleet will stop flying within a week or so. Among the drivers and assistants Flight tension skyrockets. Meanwhile, we learn that the provider has closed the taps of the credit is Eni. Yet another paradox: the flagship company of the oil is no longer a credit to the airline for air travel. The government has been informed? Or the government and Eni agreed shake tongs around the neck of the trade unions? Roberto Colaninno spent in Mantua on Friday night and Saturday morning but the afternoon is the airport of Verona will return to Rome in the evening. This morning, Sunday, will invite the unions to a final interview. He has something to bring to the table? Yes, something's got. He had taken a reservation to use the last minute and last minute has arrived. Could improve the "payroll" of the staff to summarize in Cai extent of 20 per cent. What does this mean? If the pilots had asked for a cut salary brackets of 25 percent over current salaries, 20 percent improvement means that the deduction would drop to 20. Just? This will be the last word. But there is one though. Colannino not want to deal only with the drivers. If you follow this tactic the other categories of employees may require that 20 percent of improvement is shared by all. As a good businessman Colaninno has no desire to bottle in a matter of apportionment, so his offer will be made to all the unions: see each other as share the offer. However by now the issue must be closed otherwise no longer start on Monday morning the last stage but the real agony of a terminally ill patient.
Maybe today will be the agreement: the odds are measured at 51 percent in favor of the agreement at the last minute compared to 49 who can not. Berlusconi, who was now with their backs to the wall for the failure of Alitalia would be a disaster for him unprecedented image must have wrung out well for Colaninno and leading members of the consortium flag. These in turn have weighed in with its own compensation the extra benefits they expect from their participation. Passera wisely said that conflicts of interest must be managed and the "premier" is an ace at that kind of management. A look of respect can not be denied to any of the 18 "Captains Courageous". To focus on it have already been given several, one of several not be denied to anyone but of ensuring a happy ending. Happy ending for everyone? Perhaps the drivers that represent the nobility of the sword of Alitalia employees, perhaps because of the flight attendants representing the minor nobility. The populace of ground services will be the jerk, but that's their problem, some carrying luggage it is always a good price even among the Moroccans and Romanians to know that they queue for a precarious place. And then? The end of the story we wrote Sunday last: five years Cai has recorded a substantial capital gains, shareholders sales and collection. Cai will be part of a beautiful "network" international, French-German or Dutch, because the global economy there is no place for a company like Alitalia flight, too big to be small and too small to be big. So we are back to square one, having lost a lot of money and time. Meanwhile, the Pied Piper plays his pipe and the fools who follow him spellbound. Is coming fiscal federalism, which anon. For now, we have heard many words but he has not seen any numbers. Sooner or later, however, the numbers will pop up somewhere and need to read carefully.

What Are Beautiful French Words

ANATOMY A COUNTRY disappointed - to Ilvo

Three months after the elections the country has returned to normal sad the last few years.
sunk into despair. Berlusconi has not worked miracles, even this time.
Moreover, unlike in the past, during the election campaign had promised them.
Nor, probably, the voters would believe him. The Italians have voted for him
, the PDL and the League on the 'trust'. But "no confidence" in his opponents. In the
had ruled that, with difficulty, even for two years. Three months after the vote and plunged back
fog enveloped everything and everyone. Veltroni and the Democratic Party, which estimates the electoral
slips back. But Berlusconi and the government. Which expresses the confidence to
44% of voters. Fifteen points behind (repeat: 15) than the rating obtained from the deprecated
Prodi government two years ago. Three months after the vote, as
today. Of course, in July 2006, Prodi had "monetized"
some important successes, and politicians do not: a) that the referendum had rejected
institutional reforms sought by the previous center-right majority, b) the satisfaction aroused by the Bersani decree on liberalization
c ) finally, the victory of the Italian national
World Cup in Germany. A legacy of trust that the Prodi government would have dissipated
quickly, since the pardon law, a few weeks later. However,
two years ago, the Union had won the election almost by accident, while the center-right Berlusconi
, three months ago, has achieved a triumph. Nevertheless, the country has returned
distrust of all time. Four
the reasons suggested by the survey.
1. First, dissatisfaction with the prospects of the national economy and
family: never so high, ever so prevalent in the last three years.
2. Then, insecurity, highlighted by the popular support for government action on illegal immigration and the use
army. A We think (we have already written
) ineffective, even before unacceptable. But, however, acceptable to most people, because
intercept widespread fears in society. However - as the figures of
survey - respond to further fuel fears, does not generate consensus.
But the opposite.
3. The opposition expressed by the majority of citizens with the announced projects and
in part, initiated by the government to restrict wiretapping in investigations,

to block court proceedings (known) children, to re-introduce the immunity
favor of the highest offices of state. These initiatives have generated a large
dissent, mainly for four reasons: a) why many have considered "ad personam
" aim, that is, to solve problems, "personal" before the premier
those "general" of the citizens, b) the suspension of trials In particular, it appeared,
in some ways, a sort of mini-amnesty, and, therefore, contrary to widespread insecurity
c) because they evoke the idea, the suspicion of the privileges of "caste" useful, especially in
political class.
4. Ultimately, these initiatives have fueled the anti-political sentiment:
decisive factor in depressing the consent to institutions and the political class in general;
and, in particular, towards the center-right government and the prime minister. Because, unlike
few months ago, today "govern". Exactly.
This political climate is reflected faithfully in voting intentions. Leaving, in fact, strengthened
parties who more than any other
interpret and amplify the anti-political sentiment. The League, on the one hand, now close to 9%. La Lista Di Pietro (IDV) on the other,
projected over 7%. In parallel, all political leaders suffer from a lack of confidence,
In particular, Walter Veltroni. Which has lost more than twenty points in the rating of
voters, compared two months ago. When was "the most beloved of all." Appreciated, so
cross. Now, after the end of the dialogue, his rating among voters
center collapsed. It declined even in the constituency of the Democratic Party. Where
few, however, call into question the role and leadership. Moreover,
Veltroni and the Democratic Party, today, are certainly in a position to act uncomfortable. The Wall
Arcore no signs of collapse, and prevent him from entering the center, where
the UDC is not limited to guard her piece of the electoral market, but wider.
While it is undermined by Di Pietro, a maker of intransigent opposition. Yes
presents as leader of the magistrates. Processed again, in political actors.
First, by Berlusconi: What did the enemy. To which does not bend. Indeed by
bend. For this reason, the decline of consent for the government and the prime minister does not benefit the
Pd, which, indeed suffer. In estimations election falls below 30%. Strait between
difficulties of dialogue and pressure from constituents who claim
more radical opposition.
this season, crossed by deep institutional conflicts, however, no one is saved.
To refer to the two main antagonists: confidence in the Prime Minister
slightly exceeds the 40% toward the judges stops even lower: around 35%
. Can be observed, ie, a negative-sum game, in which confidence in

democracy and its institutions declines. Degrades. Only the President of the Republic
resists. Appreciated by almost three out of four Italians. Because, as before he
Ciampi, Giorgio Napolitano, in a dark period of our Republic, the majority of Italians
looks like a hook. Anchor. To cling to
not "lost" in this country without a compass, no holds and no banks. Where
hiding certain references and shared.
On the other hand, the strategy of dialogue, promoted and accepted by Veltroni
by Berlusconi in the election campaign, after the vote was quickly consumed, although much of
voters still feel it necessary. While it seems far more bipartisanship on
. Nor is the bipolarity of the past holds. There is no longer a country divided in two.
Since the anti-political and political divisions across the two sides,
inside. Especially the center. For which the event promoted,
next Tuesday, by MicroMega in support of the judiciary and against Berlusconi
is certainly a challenge. Shared, unconditionally, by a minority, albeit significant
: 2 out of 10 voters in general, and almost 3 between those of Pd. But beyond the basic four
IDV. The majority of voters in the center, however, it
approves the substance, not form. In other words, would be expected,
search for other ways and other roads, to file an opposition before relying on the square. Or the judges.
confused in this country, where hardly a majority cohabit disappointed
opposition divided and weak institutions, it is tempting to escape.
Or at least change the channel. Turn the page. Forget politics el'antipolitica
passing directly to the gossip.
But we do not notice the difference

Red Diamonds: Give us back ... er Democrat

poem by Carlo Cornaglia


It 's a party, seem a thousand fans each day with sparking fights over everything, stormy cohabitation between former this and former that, as Abel and his brother, as with Romulus Remus. "Increasingly we will be united!" They said and we have a damn. These are the results: between currents, associations, newspapers, areas, foundations do not know who is with who, who is the boss, who says yes. Everybody runs divided: olive Parisi,
popular, and read lettiani, teodem, lay fassiniani, rutellian willing, dalemian, always known to plant a big mess because it is fluffy mustache. That you can see the houses there are those who invents Fourth phase and those who, like Piero, Democrats thought. Politics ago Vassallo and D'Alema, a rebound, his group put on the track: Red, demoriformista team, not to break my balls to the messiah Walter Veltroni, but to contribute to the future of the Democratic Party. The Melandri has a horn, a team Enrico Letta es'appresta to make sparks while the association Mille, the eggheads of the Democratic Party: They want a new summit, with the young and the elderly to control banned. Meeting summit, fireplaces, meetings, summits, banquets where everyone shoots to recover from his disastrous bua elections. An overdose of views, a mountain of crap to Berlusca a bonanza. "We want a true comparison!" "It changed the leader!" "Collegial both the management! "" Self-criticism is required! "It we go out only with Congress," "Another year, not now!" Conference on the program! "" Walter, change all or shove off! "" we come back with the old allies! "" No, those days are gone! "" Col Berlusca reforms! "" No, because it's a caiman sleeping! "Then he woke up and the Cayman Veltroni has eaten ..." Sooner or later in PES! "" No, we shall be ever lackey of the hated socialists, we who are democratic, "" Allies UDC? "" I say no! " "I say yes!" "We want to hear President Prodi" "He's gone at last!" "We are well with the radical" "I am cause of our problems!" "No one thinks the division" if the Democrats are good without so much secularism ... "Everyone in the streets?" "If some 'does', but in the fall, if it does not rain." "No, the deal moves us, we are neither casual nor girotondini, gay or similar!" E Veltroni making, clear? "At the moment the shadow prime minister says only that he is right es'impon reflection, but realized that the end will have to return to the movies ..." The voters who will? "Eventually they will realize that the DC is back, but called Democratic Party."

Umberto Eco: "The minority has the duty to show" Latin

Umberto Eco has sent this letter to Furio Colombo, Paolo Flores d'Arcais, Pancho Pardi, promoters of the event on 8 July in Piazza Navona. Dear Friends, I express my sympathy for your event, I want it served to remind everyone that two points is often tempted to forget: 1) Democracy does not mean that the majority is right. It means that the majority has the right to rule. 2) Democracy does not mean therefore that the minority is wrong. It means that, while respecting the rule of the majority, it is expressed out loud every time I think the majority is wrong (or even do things contrary to law, morals and the very principles of democracy), and must always do so in the strongest terms because this is the mandate we received from citizens. When the majority claims that it is always right and the minority does not dare to react, then democracy is in danger.

Environment: has begun delivery of the bags door to door, but it seems a farce!

In June, as prepared dal'Assessore environment, Ms Fanti, began by distributing the company's Latin American Environment bags door to door. The operation has been exposed shortcomings that have led to a general disservice to the citizens of Latin American airport. The first problem that has resulted in a lack of delivery on many families of support material for recycling is due, as the company itself admitted, the fact that the lists in his possession or out of date or have obvious errors in the data the homes of citizens. The Democratic Party has sought in recent days, once it was found that the problem was caused by the users, to make a new delivery of the bags. To date there has been no feedback and the complaints of citizens continue to persist. The company claims that a new redistribution incurs an additional charge to you, too bad that people will still pay the material received through bills, one wonders, is not a cost for them in the face of nothing? The second problem concerns the lack of planning of the service delivery of the bags (they do not specify the time nor the hour when the service is provided) that in fact led to the non-delivery, and many people have seen delivered in mailboxes to the notice of the absence of the non-delivery. The question is whether an organized society, can be defined as such when not down in the contractual relationship with the citizens of its service planning. The community and the Club of the PD's Latin stop Fanti call the deputy to take prompt action to remedy these gaps do not make this service a farce. It is possible that every time you have to comply with a public utility service, the operator of that service is the first to fail in his duty.

As we have reduced the poor Italians - E. Scalfari

ROME - In 1972 two journalists from the Washington Post began an investigation into the behavior President of the United States of America, Nixon, and the entourage of his closest associates, accused of spying on their opponents of the Party Democrat. The investigation went on for two years with a series of articles documented more and more bitter against the President, supported by documents and testimony often covered by anonymity. The White House tried in every way to intimidate the publisher (even the publisher) of that paper without success. Two years later, in 1974, Nixon resigned from office to avoid an imminent and inevitable indictment was put in by Congress. In 1998, that twenty-four years after the conclusion of the "Watergate" scandal broke Lewinsky, now dubbed "Sexygate. This time the target was Bill Clinton, Democratic President. The offense was not even a crime but anti-oral sex made repeatedly in the oval room of the White House. For months the newspapers and television stations around the U.S. and the world opened their pages to the revelations about oral sex between Monica and Bill, the players were interviewed dozens of times and so did Hillary, the wife of the President. The privacy and Clinton's sexual misbehavior were told in detail. When the mandate the younger Bush, a Republican, won the election hands down. No one in America proposed restrictions on press freedom. White House and Congress they launched no law prohibiting anything to the press as that for deep-rooted conviction of Americans, the private life of politicians and public have always been under the control "media" without restriction except in cases of defamatory and slanderous untruth. A few weeks ago was presented at the Cannes Film Festival the film "Il Divo" directed by Sorrentino who has won the Jury Prize. The protagonist is a talented Italian actor who plays Giulio Andreotti, the overall focus of the film is guilty even if not deliberately solves the riddle of the man who was politically seven times prime minister and was accused by newspapers and the courts of any kind of wickedness. Andreotti has not sued the filmmakers. I say more: Andreotti was involved in a serious process, sentenced to very severe penalties in the first-instance trials, later reduced or deleted and permanently reversed on appeal to the Supreme Court. He has never escaped the process, dealt with them and his lawyers have defended with tenacity and professionalism made. Nothing to do with the air of subversive Ghedini, lawyer, defender of Silvio Berlusconi and editor of the law "ad personam" in favor of his client. I recall here the case of Nixon, Clinton and Andreotti because they mark a huge difference than if Berlusconi. Differences regarding both the protagonists of the four cases, the conformity of most of the Italian press over the American, the bewildered public opinion with respect to our responsiveness to the overseas and finally the inability Members of the center-to distinguish their role as members of the legislature by the insane desire of a prime minister who wants to liberate from any institutional control, judicial, political, media. * * * We must protect the dignity of individuals. Sacrosanct principle. To protect it is the penal code offenses and provided for slander and defamation. Aggravated by the press. If you consider the penalties too light is just aggravating. If the processes are slow to do so to make them faster. The rest against the press usually goes for "direct route". To protect the dignity of individuals (and even of public figures) it is necessary that there is dignity. Nixon who uses his powers for the President to spy on political opponents has no dignity. Clinton is rolling on the carpet of the Oval Office with Monica has no dignity. Berlusconi fiddles with a director of Rai tissue to place him well known, that same ruling favors private initiatives for its future, negotiate collusion between RAI and Mediaset executives of public service and even a member of the Control of Communications and ultimately use some of these powers to convince members of the Senate to abandon the majority and pass on his side, has no dignity. But it still less when cut out the silhouette of his defendant in a law-blocking processes, which clog the entire judicial system. At the same time sends out a face shield law that the four highest offices of state. All with the connivance of the Presidents of the chambers, which allow amendments to be inserted unacceptable and inadmissible in texts of the decree approved by the President of the Republic. Giorgio Napolitano is well aware of its role as "impartial" even if the reckless actions of the "premier" make it increasingly narrow its area of \u200b\u200bmediation. But you can be sure that it will use the powers of its jurisdiction if, when the draft law on the immunity of the upper echelons of the state will be presented in Parliament and scheduling, the majority will not withdraw the amendment process stops placed surreptitiously in- Decree-Law safety. You can be sure that the head of state will return to the Chambers a bill that contained unfortunate that amendment, inserted without his knowledge and not blocked as it was his bounden duty by the President of the Senate. Not as unconstitutional, but for lack of need for urgency. Must address the constitutionality of the Court when it will be called into question, both for the security bill for the immunity of high office and for the duration of that immune privilege. A colleague does not lack talent but who is suffering (so it seems) of a worrying prolapse of morality ethics, recently wrote of the need to give Berlusconi a sort of safe conduct judiciary, the only way, in his view, will solve the Italian anomaly. Of course who should take charge of this delicate operation that should be the opposition would prevail and thus the basis for legitimacy in the face of public opinion. Encourage wickedness (or Mattana) policies of a defendant risen to the top of the power to purchase credit from a public opinion largely chloroformed, is it true that cynicism is fashionable in politics, but also should not rule the roost in the "media" . Instead dominates how! This is a culmination of the record-breaking pass. * * * I confess: I have a weakness for Marcegaglia. It is clear, definite and says yes, yes, no no. A hair wave. A female masculinity. His recipe is less taxes, less spending, wages coupled with productivity. The program also Berlusconi and Tremonti, but with some differences of no small importance. First option: to lower taxes if they do not speak until 2013. They had promised to bring the tax burden from 43 to 40 percent, but now that the votes they have had them tell us that in 2013 the tax burden will be the 42.90. She is glad the Marcegaglia? I'd like to know about these things but she does not speak on this point even if they did a blizzard at the time of Padoa-Schioppa and Visco. At least they took their money and Confindustria evaders have five points less than IRES and IRAP. Tremonti IRES has already returned to the original level, five and a half points more. She is happy lady? I say, yes, yes, no, no, nobody died. Does anyone really gives us a shred of the skin to contract precarious or black. You should not assume that those expelled by Confindustria in black? Expenses. Cutting waste is good. Continuity with Padoa-Schioppa. The research division of Confindustria has honestly pointed out: continuity. But Tremonti not only cuts the intermediate expenses, cut everything. Tremonti is good. But you, dear Emma, \u200b\u200bnotes with great disappointment that the growth will be zero in 2008 and 2009, if all goes well, will rise to 0.6. Come on luxury. With inflation at 3.6 and for energy and food to 5.5. Zero growth. Investment below zero. Cutting expenditure deflator. But two billion thrown to the ICI. Three hundred million thrown for Alitalia, which are about to become a million and a half if Banca Intesa will give the green light. Add to this, we add up these figures and the alms of the 500 million one-off poor pensioners. Four billion are already thrown out the window. But no wage increases unless productivity increases. But its industrial kind Marcegaglia, their productivity is not to have done wonders. Unless the cost of the work to compress. New products? No way. Search? Idem. Meanwhile, the stock market collapses. It is not his fault, Mrs. Emma, \u200b\u200bnor Tremonti, or Dragons. But collapses. Trichet will raise rates while the Fed will lower them. Who is right? Perhaps Dragons would comment and perhaps Tremonti and maybe Confindustria. Berlusconi is exempted. He takes care of processes Ghedini, soldiers in the street with La Russa and cataloging of "Roma" with Maroni. He is right that the genius of Altan latest issue of espresso: a small woman with red lips and eyes thoughtfully says, "but I'm afraid I do not know what." Italians have them so low.

Increased Cervical Mucus Right Before Period

Beware of centralism:

If the PD does not include the value of its clubs, and do not listen to the base, returning to the old centralized approach, we risk self-destruction


Memoirs of a member Vittorio Emiliani

I've been writing for about twenty years, from '58 to '78, at a party, the Socialist, the first in Lombardia and then to Rome, and I spent the season of the sections, provincial federations and currents. That at the beginning and for many years, had for me a highly formative role. The sections were discussed openly, fiercely, even to somebody too, sometimes until late at night. In Rome, in the 70's as a journalist, I slipped into the assemblies section of Pci.Una time to Tiburtino, risked having to vote after a debate, even generations, even among those who still supported the burning "superiority" of the USSR and who spoke of America Europe and without blinkers. I went to old and new townships and inescapable point of reference was the Party branches, especially the Communist Party. Then, gradually, the currents have degenerated into centers of power and the lights are on the lanes are more and less often, to stay off. In Psi, the failure of reform assumed by intellectuals Mondoperaio, Craxi had taken "all on his shoulders," the party (as he said in 1990) making it a party-person. In the direction we discussed very little, and if somebody tries, was looked upon as a dangerous troublemaker. In PCI, the case was even more troubled and complex, after the Bolognina. And yet how much and how we discussed before arriving "on to the line. " Otherwise, how he would have won in Rome in 1976?
Now I'm writing a few months ago, a Democratic Party club at Tor di Nona, a neighborhood once among the most popular of Rome, today's educated middle class. Before the double elections (general and Roman) was very lively, very earnestly. Then the double whack. Especially that of the Capitol, unexpected and violent. Someone has launched a stinging defeat on the basis of discussion? From above was immediately warned "not laceriamoci. I confess I do not understand. Torn between not discuss and there is even something in between. The only discussion we have read attributed the failure in Rome (which is the only true failure, 33 percent of the policies is not) to an unnamed "black humor" of the Romans. A little 'little, honestly. Psychologism trivial, it would have branded any old Central Committee of the Communist Party or the Socialist Party. The management team would have done better to propose to members of clubs (which are few) analysis, thoughts, views, calling them to compete with them. Instead, "not laceriamoci. Thus, discussion almost to zero, in fact, thunderous silence. I make policy on the benches of the high school, over half a century, I had never seen such an escape from reality.
As a member of the Democratic Party circles, so far have been called to confirm, in fact, chosen rained down from above, have not found a convenient form for reference for the key issues of a political program that was alternative to the PDL and that really go "inside" to the problems suffered in the country and its capital. Neither have been asked for a humble opinion, advisory charity, on the identification of candidate policies that attract consensus. Indeed, the choice of nominees was made in more centralized way. At the loft of St. Anastasia for the most distant regions. Except then talk after the election failure, for a few days, the "party of the North" in pursuit of an entirely economic success rooted localistic, of the League.
For a few days, I repeat, while decentralization should be a fact, an everyday life, ordinary, normal. The decision on who to put on the list should have this breath, you should invest in local realities, basic (the positive impact we have touched with a hand full Veneto Vicenza won the League and forzista), and provide the decisive elements for national strategies. With the elections took place, we can say that the lists packed with all centralized mediation instead were recently renovated, very attractive, with young people at times chosen on the basis that left at least puzzling.
Yesterday I read in this newspaper an interesting review of Giovanna Melandri: never again have to go to nominate mayor of Rome without a primary. I agree. It is important that the policy of the Democratic Party are "ordinary" moments for processing at the regional and local levels. In Rome it was said (later) that the choice of which candidate Francesco Rutelli, Mayor (chosen by him accepted far more than called for, I think) after the first two successful years sindacature, was not happy that the electorate 'he lived like a horse's back, and so on. Ratings, state the results, based.
But, again, I ask: it was impossible to organize a rapid consultation (I underline twice, "consultation") the members of the Democratic Party in Rome - all or nearly all, we now available by phone, text message, e-mail or, most importantly, by fax - in order to have an indication on the candidate-mayor who was the most convinced, most shared above, so as to mobilize the largest number of energies, such to avoid that so many people on the ballot, remained at sea or in the countryside, no commitment or even give one vote "disjoint" (crazy but true in thousands of cases) Zingaretti-Alemanno? I still believe it was possible. How can I use this tool for the election of regional bodies of the PD. I also think that doing so would rimobilitato and motivate the "people of the primaries," which, believe me, not enough of skirmishes and showdowns (as yes) to the summit, wants to be able to count in the choice of fund, which has always known that pulls Grillo (but where is he?) are gruel populist qualunquistica, even quite stale and suspicious. But then again, not to be called only for a few more or less rite unanimistico, who has watched the success of Vicenza and Udine as the proof of the goodness of choices strongly shared. Request to make their own if you want a modern and mature democracy.
One thing that does not take the form it says at the popular level, not field and not crack. If you still do not survive, the Democratic Party failed pancake house in the next election. It is serious, serious. In general, young people do not know where to enroll, as a "door" I turn to act upon a political commitment. Based clubs, you have to give them a voice, calling them decide on something relevant. They start the "Girotondo", the Democratic Party does not participate: end for "condemn"? From time arise spontaneously committees - on urban problems, for example - even in regions administered by always from the left and now by the center (only in Tuscany more than a hundred committees and they meet in Florence on 28). During the election campaign had been "demonized" by the leaders of the Democratic Party as a subversive phenomenon, just as signs of "No, unable to counter. Bales. These phenomena of grassroots democracy that have proposed remedial solutions to be made, but can not find a bank in the parties. The bank instead we find ourselves - the stated newly Fulco Pratesi, the founder of the WWF, which is certainly not an extremist subversive - in the left-wing parties for the battles that were called Parco del Ticino, Po Delta and Cilento, recovery centers historians, from Bologna to Taranto, Cervia Airport a few steps from Saint Apollinaris in Classe (airport useless and frustrated, that reminds me so much that now threatens to Ampugnano near Siena) and so on.
conclude: circles like my Tor di Nona will live, and with it a piece of PD, if not addressed only cobblestone or tables, if they can discuss politics, and especially deciding, help to decide. To ratify choices parachuted from above one can not have more. For some time.

also criticized the Democratic Party. "From now on, more stringent"
Pannone: he relinquished control

CONTINUE Meanwhile the debate about the manner in which the Conference of Mayors in dell'Ato4 realzione the mortgage on the joint enterprise Acqualatina spa with Depfa Bank for the construction of networks and sewage treatment works. A discussion of the PD Joseph Pannone extends to the overall assessment of a majority public shareholding company that currently manages the
main services such as water, waste, transport, parking.
"I expect that administrators pontine, for once - Pannone says - scrutinize the actions and the consequences of what they have decided or have overlooked to date, and apprestino to express publicly their opinion that it is not only critical
the result of team orders: at stake are the interests and rights of citizens, we risk further
to mortgage the future of the community pontine and this is unacceptable, especially when it comes to
essential public services. " Pannone also splinter the Democratic Party: "All the opposition parties, particularly the Democratic Party must do their share to the bottom coming out of any ambiguity, with firmly the theme of the necessary revision of the management system

proved unsuccessful because in all fields, waste water, up to intermodality, and is carrying only inefficiency, increase of economic and financial rates and exhibitions

Think of the Conciliation sponsored by the same company against which justice is sought, or
the conference on the development of water facilities, organized for the sole purpose of supporting
mutual Depfa Bank, even before the comunisoci have had the availability of documents. In short, the manager wants to play 'at home' and the public part does not exercise the right and duty

The Caiman Bite - C. Maltese

is a bit 'naive or very, surprised that Berlusconi has returned to Cayman. If there is a person true to herself, beyond any human temptation to doubt or boredom, this is the Knight. It was so long before the descent into politics, with its subversive nature, authoritarian paternalism, love the short cut demagogic and mocking contempt for each counter-democratic, beginning with the judiciary and independent journalism, the intolerance for constitutional rules, the school learned of the P2. The problem has never been how much and how it can change Berlusconi, who never changes. Rather, what has changed and as Italy, which in the last fifteen years has changed a lot. Thanks in part to the enormous media power of the premier. Every time that Berlusconi has won Palazzo Chigi tried to force the constitutional order and the first thing he violently attacked the judiciary. He did it in 1994 with the Biondi decree, the first act of government in 2001, when the emergency decrees of justice were introduced even before receiving the trust and today. With an escalation of violence in tone and, even more, in contents of the measures. The package justice now is the most subversive and Cirami Schifani of the award, in turn, more subversive "clean slate" of '94. But the growing strength of the twist imposed by Berlusconi to democratic structures, public reaction has been accompanied by a weaker and weaker. In '94 the revolt against the "save-thieves" crippled by a government now intended to last a few months. In 2001, the "Girotondo" inaugurated a season of movement, with millions of people in the streets, which were translated from the first year in a series of heavy electoral defeats for center-right majority, also overwhelmingly in Parliament. The third time, this, in the presence of an even more dramatic attempt to blow up the pillars of the judiciary independent, the reaction is very weak. The opposition, set aside the illusion of dialogue, heralds a season of struggles, but not now, in autumn. The so-called civil society seems to have disappeared from the scene. The magistrates are the only ones to revolt vehemently, but they seem isolated, at least in the polls. Almost defend their corporation and the rights and freedoms of all, just as they designed the fathers of the Constitution. Here the matter is that what happened to Berlusconi (all), but what has happened to the country. We really have become a "a little country 'Bulgarian', as we missed the demiurge few days ago? The answer, unfortunately, is yes. In this quarter of a century has not changed Berlusconi, Italy has changed a lot and worse, the civil and social fabric is fraying, and common sense was modeled on the authoritarian instincts. Many feel that talk in offices, in bars, on the beaches today, with everyone and everything, whether it's immigration or justice, civil rights such as religion, trade union or Europe, in Italy in the '94 would have been unimaginable. The Berlusconi has gone from the belly of a country where democracy has never been carried through, for a thousand reasons (reasons of right and left), but now has spread to all parts of the country and came to the brain. The genetic mutation of the Italian society is obvious to anyone who looks from outside. Even in the superficial aspects of the skin: a people we had never been "obnoxious", as it is today. More seriously, the return of Berlusconi to power and its first and devastating releases have evoked ghosts of the worst on the international scene. It is, however, to see if the "Italian case" is that even for the Italians. If public opinion still exist that have prevented these reagents Democrats in '94 and in 2001 the drift, more or less soft, to a regime. The signals are contradictory, the game is still on. Certainly, in recent decades the impact force of Berlusconi's populism has been growing, as well as taking on increasingly large parts of society. It is not just power of television or publishing, but a genuine cultural hegemony. And surprisingly, the opposition, former students of Gramsci, still, after so long, do not include the mechanisms and scope of the strategy in place. Other than the "long wave" of craxiana memory. They also, unfortunately, never change. We were deceived (again) to turn Berlusconi in a statesman, offering a table of negotiations. Delude themselves (again) be able to resist the policy of "hands off" and fade away in the red regions, which are already pink and could eventually end up gray or black. Waiting for better times. There are better times for the opposition. Here and now must find the courage of strong proposals and alternatives to the dominant single thought, inventions capable of provoking debate and thus pierce the leaden hegemony "Bulgarian" governmental agenda. Should be coming any ideas, even many, one day, to awaken public opinion by democratic hypnotic stupor with which he follows in the steps ahead of Berlusconi. The same hypnotic stupor that captures the prey moves in front of the caiman. That in the end, attacks.
