Who would have thought after one game, Australia would be leading the table!!!! Hiddink has to be a footballing genius.

Why don’t we carry on the conversation at the sports club in the forum?

Apparently in Italy there’s a really good balance. Left wing Vs. right wing. They (both) will never make it.
But this is not the point.
The interesting part is where the full majority of Italians living abroad voted for the left coalition.
Does this mean that people outside Italy have a more objective point of view on the […]

Italians are going to vote. The 9-10th of April will be time to choose again. Many people say “finally we’ll get rid of Berlusconi!”. Strange enough, someone had to vote him 5 years ago, since he won those elections at the time… but if you ask anyone, they all would say “it wasn’t me”. Bart […]

Safe and sound… too much sun still in our eyes, too many hrs. of lag to recover. These days Down Under went extremely fast (and far), like a beautiful and intense summer.

The online magazine The Nation discusses which new policies could be introduced in the future, by will of the biggest phone, internet and tv content providers. […]

Google, Microsoft, Yahoo and Cisco called to court in USA… for their censorship and cooperation with the Chinese government.
13 Chinese intellectuals and ex comunist party members denonciated the shameful behaviour through a brave letter: “Only a totalitary system needs news censorship… a violation of the constitution… freedom of speech has been reduced and proscription lists […]

Now, I don’t want to comment about the satirical drawings on European newspaper, and I don’t want to talk about the violent reaction this is causing. I don’t want to generalize either. There’re wanderful people out there, and their religion doesn’t matter much to me.
But I was thinking the following…
