March 19: a Moray "Faces of Africa" \u200b\u200bwith Father Daniel Moschetti


I accepted the invitation with absolute delight of my friends Circolo ACLI "Don Tonino Bello" of Moray, to help publicize the event organized under the patronage of the parish, for Saturday, March 19.


The event is great for the whole community morazzonese: for Catholics who see in the missionary world, life and the choices of Father Daniele Moschetti, the furthest point of the Gospel witness, but it is for the lay community that lives and believes in those values \u200b\u200bof solidarity, justice, acceptance and peace.

It is for me, for the evolution over time has been my political and social commitment, "grown" thanks to so many meetings like this, which began here in Moray at the turn of the 70s and 80s. And there is a wonderful thread that binds them together.

Before Father Daniel, the early-80s if memory serves me correctly, with a group of young people who inspire the activities of the municipal library (among them Mary Clement, Mark, Claudia, Anna,) Moray hosted a conference of a still young but no less combative than now, Alex Zanotelli, then director of Nigrizia and strongly engaged in the fight against the arms trade, enough to cause a severe reaction from the governments of the time and in particular the Ministers of Defence Spadolini. While Alex was leaving for Gorokocho, Kenya in Moray known and frequented by working with him side by side, just Daniele Moschetti, in 1988 will leave the job to begin his path postulant and then a theology student at Comboni, in Kenya. Already here in the '90s, still a young student, Daniel was often alongside his father in the slums of Alex Gorokocho where then replace it for almost a decade . He moved to Jerusalem, where will spend a sabbatical period of training and reflection, Daniel land in South Sudan where the beginning is also del'anno provincial superior of the Comboni missionaries who work there.

For years, his father Daniel, although far there has been close by his example, his prayers his long letters, passionate and full of details, anecdotes, observations, names of places and people, full of reflections, deep perspective ... I always thought that he wrote with a scalpel, but looking at the cross.

These letters are now collected in two books (The Gospel of the landfill and Jerusalem the navel of the world) to read absolutely. Today, more lightly and more frequently we can reflect with him, thanks to notes that publishes on his Facebook page: "the night owl in his thoughts."

Saturday evening March 19, Father Daniel is at Moray and I want to welcome him by publishing an excerpt from one of those intense and long letters which gives life to his relationship for years with thousands and thousands of friends in all distributed continents.
And the letter he wrote from Korogocho, Nairobi (Kenya) Aug. 14, 2002: One of the first addressed to me and even more so among those who are dear to me.

sandals Alex *

".... Alex, if I remember correctly the day before leaving, took me aside in the cabin and told me "Daniel take off your shoes I will serve in Italy. I give you here in my Korogocho are more resistant. "It was real ... his are very resistant to the streets of Korogocho but this gesture I wanted to read his desire to stay close to me and to the poor , albeit with a trivial subject but biblically great! And so Alex will continue his mission in the North with my sandals and I'll do here with his sandals, the symbol of a mission that continues.


legacy is heavy and sometimes close: That's why I heard and felt by my feet, that the early days struggled to get used to these strange sandals. Now I'm used to hearing them and put them on mine, hope is also a mission of hope and vision scope with dignity as he lived his friend and brother Alex in a continent more and more crucified and forgotten!
I confess that it is not easy. Sometimes you feel the fatigue of being alone, but only a few moments, and then to realize how much you're giving him an extraordinary experience for you to grow. Now I'm also enjoying the friendships and the paths made with Thiene Padova and young people. So, with hindsight we can see better Life. Each step requires effort and stones fan part of the way!


Slowly I am learning to "be a priest," that is, to hear more about the life of God in everyday life that pulsates and emergencies. I understand when Alex says he learned to become a priest here in Korogocho. The intense united humanity to the many problems of the poor humanizes you. Sometimes you are overcome by their intensity, and maybe you get angry. But it is only a moment for your choice is here and for them, these people crucified! The baptism of the poor, that I received when I professed vows here in the chapel of St. John, and I still carry in my heart, I gave the charge to give back what I received as a gift from the Lord really great. And when you meet the kids on the street, so many, so beautiful and a wonderful smile to greet you and want to be healthy shake hands or with a "how are you?" Or "wa wariu?" How do you recharge their desire for joy and enthusiasm!


Thanks friend and brother Alex! Your legacy is heavy and light at the same time! I tried to learn a lot, to put aside as they say ... and now it's my turn! Was the slogan for the Jubilee of the Oppressed, in that building Verona's so packed, we said all along! Help me and help me with your prayers and solidarity!
and I feel that 'important to be here, for the many people who have asked me and especially for a church that is able to show their face soft and blessing of a God who is Father and Mother. It is indeed a great challenge for me !..... "

* Alex, of course, is Alex Zanotelli .

Father Daniele Moschetti.

Flutter In My Upper Left Abdomen For Days

I cried on Libya, on the blood of its young heroes and I thought about my '68.


Rome, March 12, 2011: Public School event for the Constitution.


The '68 Salerno. In the form of a ballad .*
Dedicated To: Antonio, Mimmo, Angelo, Giovanni ...
Ernesto Scelza


"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness
my generation
the best minds
destroyed by madness
Meanwhile, Rosanna grew

What a great dream, remember, Antonio?
The kids like us, Antonio
in Paris: we followed them day by day
with a few newspapers and little tv.
But their voices, so those were our


asking the impossible, the image that comes to power: Do not consume Marx

Here spontaneizza
Some of those who always know everything
Always
will tell us that the Situationists were , anarchists, doomed to fail.
out of the big parties, doomed
And those who have not failed, what happened to Antonio?

The truth is that the programs, theories, then, it mattered less

Much less
And we were the ones who had already read Foucault
who had staged
Sartre hands dirty
embarrassing questions to the professors who were
quoting poets and philosophers that none of them had ever heard .... "

These days, in particular the March 12 during the C- Day, the day dedicated to defend the Constitution and the Public School , I thought of Ernesto, Rosanna, Piero, Francesco, Michele, Silvana, Mimmo, Enzo , Antonio, Mario, Ferdinand, Nicola, Grace, Franco and many, many other colleagues with whom I traveled - between '68 and '72 - a brief but intense stretch of road, at Salerno and the Sele plain, students, laborers and workers. I thought of them because I have shared with their ideals, hopes, the utopia of a world of free human beings, taken from oppression, violence, armed regimes. With them I learned to take to the streets not only for myself, my school, my freedom, but freedom of every human being oppressed, from South America Indochina. I thought of them as I saw hundreds of thousands of young people in the square, March 12, for C-Day and then, on March 14, I read on the site "perlapace.it" the words with which Flavio Lotti, Coordinator National Coffee peace, interprets the feelings

"These are critical days to prevent another massacre. Italy, Europe and the UN can not afford to stand still. I hope that the world take action to prevent Benghazi face the end of Srebrenica. As the situation is complex, international diplomacy must act without hesitation to reach an immediate ceasefire. We must first stop the escalation of violence. The word has to go back to politics. The human costs inaction will again be very high. "


I thought of my own, to our '68 and all those who vilified, smeared, loaded with all the contemporary evils, but that '68 is the mother of all the solidarity that transcends national borders, ch is beyond belief and beyond the skin color delal ... and I cried on Libya, on the blood of its young heroes . I cried on our inability to truly lead to epochal events to show solidarity full to young people who are giving their lives to escape the violent fanaticism of a mad dictator, like all dictators and aspiring dictators, while Europe Notes from its fragile towers of indifference.
We should have many many more in the square, as then we had to Vietnam and then to Chile , if we were still, as then, dreamers, lovers, lovers of our simple ideals of freedom, justice and peace. not we have been able ... but let's try again, otherwise there will give you peace!




* The Ballad of Ernesto Scelza, recited by the author (with musical accompaniment by Antonio Giordano) during a meeting in Salem on the '68 is included in the book "68 to Salerno. Myths, utopias, and hopes of a generation, edited by Piero and Francesco Lucia Sofia.

Great is Berlusconi's regret for the terrible earthquake and related tsunami that struck Japan.
This disappointment has nothing to do with the grief and suffering that the people are suffering in that country.
Berlusconi regretted because damage to nuclear power plants will certainly have an impact in Italy and probably will skip the government plans to build a dozen in Italy.

Inner Ear Trouble, No Appetite

Men and women, different yet the same, only together we are the life!

March 8, 2011. Only a few days ago, Giffoni Valle Piana, in pouring rain, with my wife, her sisters, her brother, our children, grandchildren and a bunch of friends, we gave the last farewell to mother Gigina. Among the many thoughts, emotions, pain ... I thought to myself and Gina mimosas we would not have been able to make them, calling the flower shop in the house, as we did for so many years, she and my mother went away a few years ago. Today my thoughts go to them, mom Gigina and mother, Amalia, to them that they had lived through the '69 revolt by young women, like me and Gina, but by mothers worried about their children, and so continued to do throughout his life, but also in the flower ( expected that each year) saw the sign, hoping that at least for women, after them, life would be less cruel.


For years, the March 8 mimosas I gave them to my wife to my work colleagues, her friends and Sofia, my 8 year old granddaughter. I do not know if this year I will! As of February 13, 2011, from that wonderful day of rebellion and assertion of their dignity, by women, I think has changed everything! we men do not need to receive a mimosa, women need a lot more and I say this by invoking a step in the post Tanning of Gregory published by L'Unità Today: "... .. The widow of the Nobel Prize for Literature (Saramago, Pilar del Rio) had called us to close on 13 February to communicate his support for the insurgency and to say how this "new wind" would make her think of the words and gestures made with the husband, in his last years about the strength of squares against the schemes of each density and type. Today, March 8, published his appeal to Italian men. Should be the men to leave the street and say 's enough, he writes. " The day take to the streets, we applaud them women from the sidewalks and throw them flowers." "


February 13, 2011 in Varese.
Yes, I think that Pilar del Rio is right: February 13 women took to the streets for us, demanding dignity and respect for their bodies have implicitly done for us ... Now it's time we take to the streets, to act, to claim the same dignity (which offers more mimosas!), because when is outraged and offended the body of a woman is abused and insulted the body of humanity that we share: men and women, different yet the same, only together we are the life!

Shot in about 20 years after the events narrated, the film, using an exceptional cast, recreating the first 24 hours of the invasion of Normandy coast during the 06 June 19 44.
The crudeness of the fighting is perceptible, even if veiled hints of superomismo typical of the cinema of the time.
The screenplay for the film, made by Cornelius Ryan (author of the homonymous book from which the film is based), follows as closely as possible the evidence gathered by the author with direct interviews with veterans and military research in the archives of the countries affected by events.
Note how the episodes narrated in the tale incorporating historical events actually occurred, highlighting the accuracy of implementation by the Allies, a project too grandiose to be planned in detail and the absurdity of the situation in which they operate the German officers, Hitler always stuck in the action from a more centralized and detached from reality; impeccable historical research with regard to means, weapons and equipment.
Wonderful overview of a historic event that marked the world history and an excellent source of ideas and modeling of historical research. Click

Libya - Italy: the complicity embarrassed!


Libya buries its dead
killed by the violence of a regime now in disarray ...
How much indignation, how much anxiety in our hearts, and the fear of what will happen tomorrow " along our coasts, it stops in front of astonished televisions. E 'timidity? I can not answer, but I know that I, as all the friends I meet on the street and on the blog, I have a heart full of anger and pain! And I think what we want ... we are indignant, but until we are able to transfer our values, those enshrined in the Constitution and written in the Manifesto of the values \u200b\u200bof PD (which I feel more part of) our indignation against the violence of unprecedented 'yet another crazy dictator, will be just a facade, because essentially sterile in terms of concrete results. I received (thanks to the work of Don Renato Sacco) and read with care and pride Press Pax Christi of 22 February and I felt a motion of contempt for the Union's policy and that of every single European country (and Italy in particular), regarding trade weapon systems.
In the name of economic interests of a few, often passed off as the interests of all, we continue to arm dictators around the world and so far we have also reinforced the worst offender of the Mediterranean, Gaddafi. Pax Christi touches on important issues such as the PD candidate to lead the next Italian government, I think we should play a deep reflection and to take clear positions, not only in principle, because the values \u200b\u200bcan not reside only on "Maps" but must live in our choices and actions, because there is still understood to provide weapons to dictators like Gaddafi. On the statement of Pax Christi reminds us explicitly " that Law 185 of 1990 on arms exports concerned with establishing the" respect for human rights in the country of final destination "and to reject the export of arms" if there is a clear risk that technology or military equipment for export might be used for internal repression .



Press Pax Christi - February 22, 2011


Libya - Italy: the complicity embarrassed.

Lock the market for arms and respect human rights.

On 2 September last year we expressed our distaste for the "unseemly spectacle " in honor of Gaddafi prepared by the head of government who ostentatiously kissing the hand of the dictator, completely ignoring any mention of human rights abuses, the tragic fate of victims of rejections, who died in the desert or in Libyan prisons. Now is the ruthless repression of the revolts. Armed groups fired on a crowd that is also bombed.

Pax Christi wants to remember that Italy Europe is the biggest exporter of arms to the regime of Gaddafi. In the 2008-2009 period, the Italian government has authorized the sending of arms companies own more than € 205 million, more than a third of all permits issued by the EU. In contrast to European counterparts, the foreign minister refrained from reporting even the temporary suspension of arms supplies to Gaddafi.
Italy, and business partner of many horrors, embarrassed, stuttering.
Yet there have been stresses. After the first riots in the countries of North Africa, with the Network Disarmament and the peace table, we asked the government to suspend all military cooperation with all area countries.

But the lives of Libyans worth of oil, gas and all other interests.


E 'urgent review of the "treaty of friendship, partnership and cooperation between Italy and Libya signed in Benghazi in August 2008 by Berlusconi and Gaddafi - with which the Italian exports of arms to the Libyan coast have taken momentum.

We want to remember that Law 185 of 1990 on arms exports calls to ensure "respect for human rights in the country of final destination" and to refuse the export of arms "if there is a clear risk that such technology or military equipment for export might be used for internal repression. "

disarmament, justice and democracy are the foundation for the North Africa and the Mediterranean become, according to the dream of La Pira, a great new Lake Tiberias ". Not the bloodbath that we are forced to look in front home.

Yeast Infection Or Implantation

"Simul stabunt, simul cadent ..."


Champions ...

Ballarò I have not watched last night, but throughout the day, for the umpteenth day, I followed with anxiety what is happening in Libya. The intervention of the Franceschini 'I took this morning through facebook, and I liked: accurate, specific, detailed in his condemnation of violence that have hit the Libyan people by a dictator Crazy and in severe criticism of the attitude disgraceful and no appeal of our government! I do not know how it will end this carnage that, yesterday, Gaddafi raised with fury, and a contempt for his people ("rats", has called hundreds of thousands of young in revolt!) that is found only in the sick minds of the worst dictators.
is no shame to think that Berlusconi has accepted in Italy as a special friend (or especially?) And has allowed those arrogant and crazy antics that now dirty Italy's image on television around the world. The only thing I can think of now is an end the violence as soon as possible, knowing that the international community to move with wisdom and vision, focusing on life and the right to live in freedom, even for the Libyan people, economic interests first, before any even legitimize realpolitik. As for Gaddafi and Berlusconi I just hope this is indeed the " stabunt simul simul cadent" : will gain the dignity and development perspective and freedom not only of Italian and Libyan, but the entire Mediterranean.
Libya: The newspapers today speak of at least 1000 dead.

Restasis Health Canada

Island ... North Africa and the F-35.

Hunting F-35 flight.
The Italian government in recent weeks has failed irreparably an appointment with history and I am not referring to the ability of management and acceptance of the extraordinary flow of refugees from Tunisia and Egypt, but to the fact that over the past 2 years has declined to represent Europe and fielding foreign policy (by developing even those opened by Prodi) north Africa, on behalf of Europe. Yet thanks to its special geographical position, Italy is naturally destined to become "bridge" between Europe, Africa and the Middle East. Instead, the Berlusconi government did exactly the opposite of what the geopolitical location and common sense should have been advised. In fact, Berlusconi isolated Italy from the rest of Europe to create a special relationship, exclusive staff with Colonel Gaddafi, confusing (but has its own special feature) institutional relationships with those friends, with dragging in this policy borrowed in foreign (ni), even his friends leaguers. This choice has created disastrous conditions because Gaddafi, during his bizarre performances in Rome, Italy blackmail Europe with billions required to stop the flow of migration from North Africa, is pushed to foresee the end of the Christian West, it gave to the preaching of the Koran (as Christians have no rights from its parts and for the truth are not the only), we did kiss the hand of the Sultan that Italian (taken from the hard work that requires the formation of a personal harem) was not even have time to complain about the harassment that his August guest deals with migrants crossing its lands, especially if Christians from Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia.


A policy of increased attention to throughout North Africa, consisting of reports, presence, collaboration, would enable them to play an active role at this stage, man, maybe in place addressing the problems that we are forced to face, sea, islands, in shelters ... the skin of people who arrive and those that have to welcome them and help them.

these when I don Renato Sacco of the editorial staff of "Mosaic of Peace" - which he has edited - I anticipated the following article, published in the book review, that care about their "Mosaic of Peace."



Island
February 15, 2011 - Don Renato Sacco.

photos panorama.blog.it . refugees landed on Lampedusa.
In these days, as the Minister Maroni said 'we risk seeing the arrival of a wave of 80,000 immigrants who flee from North Africa'. And on the island of Lampedusa experience moments of solidarity and hospitality accompanied by controversy. Like the one with the EU by the same Minister of Interior, which does not hesitate to blame the whole of Europe and to claim an immediate contribution of EUR 100 million because, he says, 'this situation is not resolved by the rejection'. And while we see these great movements of people into the streets in Egypt, Algeria, Tunisia, Yemen, Iran (and Italy!) And leak into the sea of \u200b\u200bthousands of people who go in search ... And lose their lives, the public service RAI broadcasts another island, one of the famous, in Honduras, where someone likes to pretend to be shipwrecked, etc..

That bitterness, to say the confusion and anger! The message I get is that it is all a fiction, as in Lampedusa in Honduras, something you watch on TV, that does not touch you closely. And, icing on the whole, arrives, the island of Fame, the call of the Director General of RAI to congratulate the transmission! Do not add more. Each face is your opinion ...

I almost hope - given that for 10 years leads with d. Angel heading for a small television in Verbania, VcoAzzurratv.it - \u200b\u200bI receive a phone call from the Director Rai, though in that he has nothing to do TV. If you call, however, we could ask him to convey to the Minister Maroni, desperate for € 100 million to Lampedusa, not to take them from the island of Fame, no, God forbid! and then the program will not cost all this money mica! No, take them to the design of the F35, the new fighter planes, costing about 100 million euros each. And Italy wants to buy 131 well! One more one less, what difference is there. Anyone interested, is that Maroni Masi, consult the website of Pax Christi.it

Bike Trail Birthday Cake

IF NOT NOW WHEN?


E 'is the slogan chosen by women for the demonstration on February 13 which will cover the whole of Italy, with events in major cities. A 'initiative which was joined immediately known many women, politics, culture, trade unions, and business, scientific research and entertainment, which take to the streets with millions of other women less known but equally angry, against the attack on the their dignity.



"Even in Varese women are mobilizing to restore dignity to Italy.
Sunday, February 13, 2011 will be
in Piazza Monte Grappa
pm 10.30 to 12.30.
With a shared symbol:
a white scarf of mourning for the state prevailing in the country.
slogan: Another Italian history is possible. "

In the square, and in Varese in Italy, I hope that there are too many men on their side, their friends, husbands, boyfriends, fathers, sons, brothers and sisters. The country where until a few decades ago it was legitimate to have mitigating sentence in cases of "crime of honor," now at least have the courage and the decency to take to the streets to say "enough" to impose a "shoulder to Berlusconi, this pseudo-culture of fiction, fake wellness fake happiness, fake love, gradually imposed on the real life, with the result of bringing us all a little 'less real, a little' more cynical!

In recent days, I thought the campaign "I AM WOMAN AND SAY ENOUGH!" launched its women and supported by some newspapers and I was going to write for my blog post for a claim to us men the right and duty to be at the side of women with their own slogans, but declined for men: "MALE AND SAY ENOUGH IS TOO!" Just this havoc on the body and the image of women: the dignity of women is our dignity, women who tramples tramples on life, love, generosity, beauty, grace, enthusiasm, courage, strength, hope, everyday heroism of being a woman, mother, wife, sister, friend. Then I have the last Blog sen. Paolo Rossi, PD, I read the post from January 31, "Sister Rita: I liked it, I was intrigued and tried to figure out who was Sister Rita Giaretta and when I understood, I understood that even in times of mobilization by women, such as these, it is right that there are women in the limelight, not us, it is better that men become more sober-as stated in the card. Tettamanzi in "Not There is no future without solidarity "- even" in words, in the exhibition itself, the exercise of power in daily life ". In times like these we must support them and, with great humility, to step back to reflect on our role overflowing, spaces and power that still occupy unduly in society, in public, in the Board of Directors of public and private companies and begin to "put on a diet" to recognize women the space belongs to them. For this I am glad that some friends of the PD and a piece of so-called "civil society", have long proposed the candidacy for mayor of Varese Luisa Oprandi. And I hope that the Democratic Party, do not let it fall, do not let it vanish into the mists of indifference, who can even hope to take advantage of the February 13 for a small gesture of compensation to all women! I appreciate not only women but also men of their friends!

And now I go back to Sister Rita Giaretta, even on behalf of the sisters of the Community RUT Caserta, joined the demonstrations of 13 February with a letter that should be read in every square of Italy (especially us men) :


Open letter from Sister Rita Caserta Giaretta (from the website: http://www.filomenainrete.com/
Caserta, January 27, 2011
(Feast of St. Angela Merici )


"If you come to know clearly
that are endanger the safety and honesty of the daughters,
not have to allow for anything, nor stand, nor have any regard,
if you can not provide you
main recourse for mothers and without regard,
be insistent, too intrusive and annoying "(St. Angela Merici).


years, along with three of my sisters (Ursuline Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Mary), are involved in a land of many to say "no hope". A territory, Caserta, more and more in his knee for severe environmental degradation, social and cultural life, where even the scourge of sexual exploitation perpetrated to the detriment of many young immigrant women, is very much present with signs of violence and its real slavery.
As a woman, as consecrated, caused by the Gospel of Jesus who speaks of freedom and hope, along with my sisters, I chose to "make me a friendly companion next to these young foreign women, often minors, to offer them the wine of hope, the bread of life and the smell of dignity.
Today, looking at the face of Susan and bend light in one of his little Francis, chosen and accepted with love, thinking of its history - one of many stories accepted, which was still a child (16 years) was found on our roads as a commodity to be bought, to violate and use the part of many Italian men - have been assailed by a feeling of deep shame, but also of anger.
I felt the need, as a woman as dedicated and as an Italian national, to apologize to Susan for the unseemly spectacle to which everyone, these days, we are witnessing. And not only Susan, but also to the many women who have found help and liberation and to the many, many women still slaves on our roads. But also to the many volunteers and many young people with whom we believe in the value of the religious person, in particular of women, recognized and respected in their dignity and freedom.
I am shocked to assist as "villas" of power from government representatives, elected to try and do only good for our country, especially in a time of crisis so severe, offend, humiliate and spoil the image of women. Anxious to see exercise power in a manner so brazen and arrogant that reduces women to a commodity and where rivers of money and promises intertwined bodies transformed into objects of enjoyment.
Faced with this show and much indignation is great!
How not to go with the mind the image of another "palace" of power, where about two thousand years ago the powers that be, incarnate in King Herod, John the Baptist shouted with all her voice: "It is not lawful , it is not lawful. "
today too, in the name of Susan, I feel I raise my voice and tell our powerful the Erode-turn, you are not allowed! You are not allowed to offend and humiliate the "beauty" of women, you are not allowed to transform relations into commodities trading, driven by interest and money, and especially now it is not lawful stifle the way of young people in their desire for authenticity, beauty, transparency and honesty. All this is the betrayal of the Gospel of life and hope!
But before this show I rode in a question: where are the men, where are the boys? There are few voices, even believers, who wake up clear and strong. In their silence, there is still too much silence, complacency and perhaps subtle hidden envy. I believe that in this male world, where relations and relationships are often exercised in the name of power, there is great need of liberation.
So thanks to you, Susan, sister and friend, for giving voice to mine, and our indignation, I can now, as a woman consecrated as a citizen, and look into your eyes with the little Francis breathe the scent of human dignity and freedom.

Square Decorative Liners

A big mistake (Dieppe 1942)

In 1942 the Allies had attempted to land in Europe, considering incomplete coastal defenses of the Axis. For logistical needs, it was necessary to seize a major port, able to accommodate the huge flow of men and materials necessary to establish a bridgehead on the continent. The choice fell on the port of Dieppe, and was a disaster. The Churchill tanks sank in the sand just landed and the men were flooded by a rain of fire that came from well-protected positions, against which the batteries had not ship have nothing. The scene depicts some German soldiers who, in the final stage of the fighting, down to the beach to monitor the situation and counter the attempt of landing:
In the overhead view you can see the underground station on which is installed in the turret of a tank car French FT-17.
Equipped with a 37 mm gun at low initial velocity, this means, dating back to World War I, was already obsolete at the beginning of the conflict. After the capitulation of France many towers were used in fixed locations such as the photo.
Let's look at the players:
We see two sailors Kriegsmarine (navy) and a soldier Wehrmacht (army). Let's start a naval officer:
wearing the uniform fabric melton blue ordnance and is armed with a machine gun Bergmann caliber 9 mm, while there is a belt Stielhandgranate , or a hand grenade with handle confidently called "masher." Its position is indicated by the hat with the visor and controspalline trips gold.
front of him see his subject:
In this appear we can see the double-cut blouse and gold buttons. The NCO has a good supply of grenades and brandishing a Karabiner 98k with fixed bayonet. A distinction is that even the pouches to the belt and blue insignia, chevrons on the left arm are edged in gold.
analyze the figurine soldier
He is armed with a rifle and wearing K98k order the 1936 version of waffenrock (ie the army blouse), which provided controspalline and collar dark green fabric, contrasting with the gray of the rest. Until 1943, moreover, provided the uniform of gray pants and boots-mouse blacks bore. Flashes and controspalline are white, color identification of the infantry.

The diorama is a scale of 1:35, with plastic figurines Dragon and Tamiya. The tower comes with a set of east-European production, while the retaining wall and the stairs are made of plaster, the CVR.
I closed the back of the diorama with corrugated cardboard, which I also created the basis for the embankment. The turret is glued on a cardboard tube that served as the axis for a roll of adhesive labels.
Gravel and grass crib bonded with the vinavil complete the effect.
you soon!

Blood Phlegm Sore Throat

"... NO TO THE DEATH, who died in Auschwitz."

Entrance to the extermination camps of Auschwitz

Never close your eyes, never turn away, never again retreat before a " discrimination" that affects only one of our brothers, because of its origin , language, color of his skin or because of his political, religious, sexual ... " not to repeat, from the ash pit, death ".




Auschwitz

There, Auschwitz, away from the Vistula,
love, along the northern plains,
in a death camp: Cold, funeral
rain on the piles of rust and tangles
iron fence:
and no tree or bird in the air
gray or from our thinking, but inertia
and pain that the memory of his silence leaves
without irony or anger.
From hell opened by a white
written: "Work will set you free"
door was still smoking
of thousands of women pushed out from dawn
kennels
against the wall of the shooting or smothered screaming mercy
water by mouth
skeleton under the gas showers.
You'll find you, soldier, in your
history in the form of rivers, of animals, or are you also
ashes of Auschwitz,
medal of silence?
remain closed braids in the polls even close to
glass amulets
and infinite shades of small shoes and scarves
of Jews
are relics of a time of wisdom, wisdom of man who makes
measure 'weapons,
are the myths, our metamorphosis.

On stretches where love and pity and tears
rotted in the rain,
there, no one was beating within us, a
no to death, died in Auschwitz,
not to repeat, from the ash pit
, death.

Itching Make Scabies Worse?

AND 'THE TIME OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY!

Walter Veltroni and Pier Luigi Bersani.
The year 2011 began exactly where we left off: there, in quell'intrigo of political, ethical, social and institutional changes which seem to begin to unravel, partly because of some unforeseen unscheduled too "minor" and therefore more serious consequences.
the first node I spoke in the post 16 January: that the outcome of the referendum on the union of Mirafiori which was won with a slim majority by supporters of the SI, and that loaded on the shoulders of Marchionne entire responsibility for creating the conditions for hours ephemeral and not a revival, however, strong company and to facilitate the mending of the tear has developed between the workers, even before the trade unions. Because it is a "team" of employees motivated and love your company, your product, make a difference, to determine success. Marchionne will create the conditions, but the tear can heal just about politics, the government then, with legislative action on the representation and union representation. This is a task too delicate for which this government and this majority does not seem equipped for either political or for social awareness. To this I say that "is the time of the Democratic Party."

The other node, the one concerning the verdict of the Constitutional Court on "legal impediment" for the prime minister, seems to have been only partially dissolved, and if so should be confident that the referendum promoted by IdV and approved by the Constitutional Court just a few days ago, will sweep away altogether. In any case, started the process for bringing Berlusconi and his claim to be above and beyond the law, breaking down-at last! - Legal tools that lawyers / servants had to keep him away from the packed courtroom and more glued to the seat of power, source of the alleged democratic and popular, has less and less.

and on time, after the pronouncement of the Constitutional Court, falls on the Knight the "scandal of scandals" "on charges of extortion and exploitation of child prostitution" . But I sent this: it now speaks whole world and in Italy is the shame and embarrassment from the top of the ecclesiastical hierarchy, which for too long downplayed, has "context", he even turned a blind eye on any clear sign of moral degradation which advanced fouling everything licked ... as slurry. And all this just for that "mess of pottage" represented by promises instrumental hypocritical of "attention to issues of family and ethically sensitive issues." Beyond solidarity pathetic and guilty, but widely discounted, that the Premier has come from his party, hits the deafening silence of the Northern League, of Formigoni and his troops of CL, which represent the time of this praetorian guard satrap absolutely disgraceful, which harmed the dignity of every woman (and that of every man who knows that humanity is one that turns pink, or blue dress and all the colors of the rainbow. To understand why there is no need however to remain silent "crystal balls and gypsy" , there are debts of gratitude to be paid, made up of bank bailouts, subdivisions of seats Lombard and funds in health, etc ...

How did Italy surrender to the last two decades, in the hands of Berlusconi (and "cracks" that from time to time deal for deal, you were around him) is incomprehensible without taking into account, as it had to withdraw from Walter Veltroni, on the occasion of his resignation as secretary of the PD (Corriere della Sera, 19 February 2009) " Berlusconi won a battle for hegemony in society, because he had the means and the ability to twist even the values \u200b\u200bof society itself, building a system of negative values \u200b\u200bagainst which we must fight with courage, even when the wind is lower but knowing that if the sail is positioned in the right direction, sooner or later you get the wind behind it will push forward. " errors, horrors and scandals of Berlusconi, year after year have eroded the myth of the knight, the first in the country and then in Parliament (with the splitting of Fini), creating conditions so that the various opposition began to arise with the problem of determining an historic step to a new phase in our history. Today finally seems that the "wind is behind us" (Veltroni as saying) that is why today I say " is the time of the Democratic Party."

"The wind is behind us," touch here and another node that is melting in recent days. It is not nostalgia for that once again use this expression, Veltroni is not nostalgia for which I have also appreciated and followed with enthusiasm, and I recognize the merit of having shot down by decision of the latest psychological and ideological barriers that prevented the birth of the Democratic Party. but it is to remove negative thoughts from me na, based on what was the initiative of Walter. He is credited with having "made wings and flew a kite in the sky of beautiful policy," colorful "in which everyone could find her, " robust " point to ride the currents and, in combination, "light" to collect also pushed fainter.
Walter gave us a glimpse of those spaces for growth of freedom, democracy, solidarity, hospitality that has long dreamed of this, although today most do not understand the choices, I do not agree with some strong steps, I will not, not I can see in his stances intent of breaking conditions of leaps forward that will bring him off the field ", undermining the very democratic alternative to Berlusconi.

Walter, I now turn directly to you: through the pages of Facebook (notes and comments of many friends) I have read hundreds of invitation to you from your fans Yesterday and today: "is the time of the Democratic Party," "Unity is the time of the Party," "it's time to put into practice what you said to yourself, leaving the Secretary of the Party , slightly less than two years ago (Corriere della Sera, 19 February 2009): "Do not ask with the clock in the hands of those who come after me now to get results," ... because "a large project takes years, as has happened with Mitterand or Lula. " In Germany or Britain, then recalls Veltroni, progressives have lost the local elections and no one has resigned. "We, however, in these years, we changed six or seven leadership, while Berlusconi is still there to win or lose. So who will come after you give me time to work, what I perhaps I have not won on the field. " There is also space for a biblical quotation: "Do unto others as you would not want done to you. In fact, I was done, but I will not. "

Walter Veltroni knows that 'the time of the Democratic Party of his party and can not but be proud, along with all of us (veltroniani, bersaniani, franceschiniani, mariniani, scrap, etc ...) for this the Lingotto2 does not bother me, indeed I consider "the wind back!

Pupil Remain Dilated After Cateract Surgery

The new year has begun ... I start again from Mirafiori!

in tears at the gates of Mirafiori (from the site informazionedalbasso.myblog.yt)

How many of those who read this post, I lived with fear every hour every day since the signing of a Mirafiori until the end of the ballot. I always felt very close to Fiat workers, their families, Fiom and his management team and the Secretary Landini (which I listened with pleasure on Saturday night at "Che tempo che fa") but I could never get ready, for either the SI or the NO, just as the PD. But quest'indecisione not live as a sin, but as an act of deep respect for the workers, their anxieties, their fears, their fears.


My thoughts were all those 5213 people, men and women, employees forced Fiat to a decision absurd, inhuman, "Bread against rights", "soup against the window! I was not interested before and now I do not care to judge how they voted, neither the workers nor the employees (because there is so much desire to divide the people among workers and employees do not understand it), because in the face of blackmail in have been only feel a deep pain. Pain and suffering, for each of those men and those raped women in their dignity as human beings and their rights as employees of the largest factory of the "seventh world power." Pain and suffering, as I try to imagine the talk at the table with their children and wives, fathers or older mothers and a deep sadness comes over me, while a shiver runs down my back makes me feel a miracle not to be one of them I think and I feel ashamed, embarrassed. An embarrassment that prevents me from even thinking, "what I voted, I" do not know. But I think at that rate, in those conditions on that dilemma, he would never have arrived. And I know that now each employee has reason to feel alone anymore. But I feel sorry (not affected) too many politicians, many parties (including PD) I've heard sides, with ostentatious security, for the Yes or No. For Veltroni Vendola, through Chiamparino, Fassino and Renzi. Yes or No? But politicians competed to respond with a Yes or No? competed indicate how to respond, or rather work because the whole story takes place in a framework of rights and better defined with a presence in politics, first and foremost the government, which was not to be a mere spectator?

Si Won, and most likely will be considered a victory for all, and maybe it is, but it is a "half victory", though "full of unknowns." Exactly like the other victories that we are celebrating in these days as the law of the sacrosanct principle that "the law is equal for all", so even for Berlusconi (though the balance in the High Court decision!) as the victory of Bersani in Management, a victory that - thinking Veltroni - could last "seven days", as the space of a "contract notice", and if I think in bed, and even less time.

Even today, as in recent days, as I wrote these same things to two dear friends-my thoughts turn to the Fiat employees who are returning to work after a weekend break. I think about them and see them walk back straight, Marchionne's arrogance at all bent or conceit of politicians who have not spared any advice, but did not lift a finger to defend their rights.

But unlike the days lived with the anxiety of the election, I won my pessimism e. .. helped me do the firm and quiet determination with which the interview Landini said Fazio, in practice for a raise towards a wider horizon: the fight from now on will point to the globalization of rights! Because the whole issue of the weak, the blackmail, the poor of every continent and unity, the union ... that is strength. There will also collapsed ideologies but are never less certain axioms !

Yes, the real fight is for the globalization of rights, not of misery and blackmail, according to the doctrine Marchionne. It helped me to recall the firmness of optimism Bersani Marchionne in asking to put on the table real programs, not just promises, and policy address the problem of representation and union representation at the factory: "The Fiom can not stay out and Marchionne certainly can not expect him to choose even the unions with which to deal. "
