The Mistery of Michael Jackson

His person, his life, and even his death are a mistery. No judge, no comment about him and his life choices.

We know he was innocent although the press just whispered it. A lot of kids and teenagers love him for his many qualities he only owned. He was fragile and sensitive, he appeared strange to the mass but what we are sure to affirm is that he was unique in the originality of his music and dancing. We love to remember him for the beauty, the armony with nature and the sense of surprise he could provoke in all the people, fans and not fans.

He was the King of Pop, Rock and Soul

Mull of Kintyre

Do you like this song?
Who's the author? and the singer?
Who are the Wings?
Listen to the words: can you understand them?
What about the song?
Try to write the text down.
Have you ever heard about the mull of Kintyre?
Where do you think you can find it?

The wave

The writer's novel, the movie has originated from is Morton Rhue



The film, whose title in German is Die Welle, is about a teacher who wants to show how it is possible to create a dictatorship although it could seem to be impossible to repeat the same error in history. Pr.Wenger tries to perform the example without considering he has to do with human teenagers. So the teacher's experiment fails because the story has a tragic end. In fact the teacher's idea could be good but the way how it is realized does not convince his wife and the negative effects on some students is lethal. The reason why the teacher fails is, in my opinion, the loss of a pedadogical foundation in his attempt.

About walls in the world...

Walls

Since the ancient times walls were built for defence from enemies, for preserving the population identity from the outside intrusions. Hadrian's Wall had the purpose to block the attacks from the Northern invadors, the Great Wall of China, the longest one, represents the sign of the borders of the big Empire. It was so at the very beginning, but during the centuries people have learnt to meet and communicate each other. Nowadays the need is going towards the others and delete all the barriers to find friendship and partnership, as we were a unique thing. This could seem utopia but it is the story of our times. So in this context building walls means the contrary of being in peace with the population beyond the wall, wall is used as a ghetto, as it was during nazism.

Building a wall means separation of people from people, being in war, although it was called "cold war". The biggest shame of all the walls today is represented from the walls built in Gaza and in every town of Cisgiordania, for Palestinian people, because as it is said, they represent a danger for Israeli population.

But, as you know, the thief is always afraid to be robbed by anyone!

People vote for Europe Parliament

Berlin Wall Fall

Vote in Europe has chosen towards the right and not the left side of the Parliament. The cause is to be found, in my opinion, in the fall of the Berlin Wall (November 1989) that meant freedom from the communist ideology a sort of dictatorship because the ideal of communism has never existed in history without wars and oppression for the human rights. Nevertheless we cannot forget nazism and fascism, very strong in Europe. But why are people from Europe afraid of communism? Naziskin are still alive and they are not less dangerous than communist rebels. The race extinction belongs to past times and Hitler is considered crazy, but communism is always possible and behind the corner.

Conservative parties look at the past, at what is known; progressive parties look at the future that is unknown, uncertain and difficult to plan.

Are we sure it cannot be another alternative between right and left parties? Is it possible to think the United States of Europe building a true democracy?

European taste

49 Frith Street Soho London W1D 4SG
Its name is Alastair Little and now is one of the most famous restaurants in London, but it wasn't so 12 years ago when it was allocated in one of the metropole suburbs at not so expensive price.

Was it just luck or fortune? The two chefs, Fergus Henderson, once a fashionable architect, and the Italian Adriana Rosati, university graduate and graphic designer, very fond of cooking and interested in food, invented a new style of eating mixing the Italian taste with the international one, because, as you know, it doesn't exist any English cuisine or style of cooking. In fact English people have imported it from the colonies. So British people can cook Thai, Indian and then Chinese, Japanese but, what about English cuisine in the world? Absolutely unmeaningful and English kids are not educated to the taste. So they started their job with a goal: educating English children to the palate's pleasure.

Italian taste and international cuisine became something new they called it Modern European Cuisine.

A day out

A wonderful place in the country near Pollina, a farm holidays called La manna della zabbra, in the Madonie mountains in Sicily, where you can breath fresh air and enjoy the sun shining in the blue sky, offers you an exquisite, fine dinner based on Sicilian tastes and flavours mixed to the international cuisine. The chef is proud of his creativity and asks the customers about his new cooking style. But the place is particularly interesting for the many ash-trees from which you can take the manna, a natural sweetener, typical of this countryside. There is also a small firm for the preparation and conservation of natural products from biological cultivation like dried vegetables, vegetable and fruit pureès and, of course, the manna in tiny sacks for laxative use.
