Why Won't Oovoo Recognize My Camera?

The future of the Delta Park

Saturday Ca 'Vendramin hosted the awards ceremony of the first "Parks Award of the Veneto, which has also reserved some awards to the press. The first prize went to colleague Corriere del Veneto Macri Puricelli, for his article "No disturb the friars' . Already it is a satisfaction: the article is very nice, the story is about the Delta and a good initiative of WWF and the author is passionate and consistent. Among the special awards, was reported on my article about who has bet on the Park "Tours boat, hostels and shelters. The nature lives in the Delta del Po ", which in reality is as always the result of a good team work with colleagues in the Courier. It 'was, among other things, one of the articles that I have more fans and that I did find out that someone on the future of the Delta has clear ideas, putting even more emphasis on the backwardness of this future who should design it.

They talk about the future of the Delta Park for two decades now abundant . You think that it should not be hard to imagine the future of a park that can not bind to nature, beautiful scenery, tourism, local products. All things, to talk, they are part the good intentions of all, when we talk about the subject.
In fact, however, things are different. E 'singular, for example, that in the park of our local administrators Delta allow hunters to slaughter of animals every year. Recently have approved the conversion of old coal-fired power plant Polesine Camerini, and not enough, have allowed the establishment of a huge LNG terminal, a monster as tall as a building of Boccasette bathers can enjoy in all its ugliness and expropriation of the local fishermen several miles of water. In Porto Viro is preparing to expand the industrial zone, which could become a new Marghera Polesine. Meanwhile, administrators push well as a platform for offshore goods Pharaonic, costly and again impacting the ecosystem and the landscape of the park. All things that are at odds with the much-vaunted beauty of the landscape and environmental protection and local production. There was also a director of a local municipality of Delta, which proposed visits to the Delta by helicopter. Not to mention projects, thankfully dead on paper, as Euroworld or the "highway of clams," delusions that demonstrate the best total lack of awareness of what are the resources of the Delta. There is a strange squint
plus: on the one hand, it glorifies the beauty of the Delta, on the other hand you want to settlements of all kinds to promote local economic development. Not by the merits of the environmental impact of a coal (which of course I could be refuted immediately by the data in favor of the optimists in the project), but that the central Polesine Camerini is a real crap to be presented to the tourist who arrives in search majestic landscapes, should be self-evident: so much so that even in the slides projected at a meeting of Confindustria a few years ago, among the many charming views of lagoons, shoals and sandbanks there was not one that was present our beloved Central, although its magnitude is clearly visible from all parts of the island of the Maiden.

Talk "who bet on the economy of the Park," however, was a breath of fresh air. While gossip for decades and is drowning in the contradictions mentioned above, some have already found the right formula and would simply need the institutions did their part. I remember my interview with Maria Adelaide then Avanzo Tenuta Ca 'Zen, a bed and breakfast housed in a villa in Eighteenth-Century Taglio di Po
is the first good example. While the Park Authority has had the brilliant idea of \u200b\u200bbuilding from scratch an ultra-modern visitors' center in Porto Viro, someone thought it was smarter to take advantage of a historic building to create a structure in harmony with the scenic beauty, which should be our tourist attraction. In Camargue, told me the Avanzo, we speak of "local culture" if we sell to the tourists a landscape, we must respect the environment, local cultures, distinctive architecture, etc.. Instead we are rotting rural buildings, while building wildly modern buildings of rare ugliness.
Another thing that made "those who bet on the Park" is to network service offerings. It is true that in the Delta, there is nothing to be done. It is, rather, to link and coordinate the many other opportunities. And 'course, I said the surplus, if one is in the Delta and is left in disarray, two days after he leaves. From here the trivial idea to offer the visiting wildlife, the boat trip, cycle routes and all things you can do in the Delta. That is what makes any cottage or bed and breakfast worthy of the name in an area of \u200b\u200bItaly where it is believed in tourism. Of course, if instead of building bicycle paths, we think the road of the clams are fresh.
just to be in terms of paths, impossible not to mention an anecdote dnell'autunno 2008, when the town council of Porto Viro (from which the current president of the Park) decided to close one lane to allow hunters to shoot in the border lands, that "in order to maintain a peaceful coexistence and support equally the most common rights of citizens hunters, cyclists and birdwatchers practitioners, enabling early the exercise of its business in the very valuable land adjacent to the lane without limitations and restrictions of land and others to use them safely when the hunt is closed. "It speaks for itself.

A breath of fresh air, I said, talk to people that the future of the Delta has clear ideas. In these people, who after all would just think about their own interests, I found a vision of how it should be clear and precise Delta Park. After all, the survival of their business just depends on the survival of the Delta and this is the most common principle behind all production activities related to the "territory". But just who decides the future of Delta does not have an idea of \u200b\u200bthe future, chases and monstrous projects in contradiction with the development of the park, with logical reasoning of the chair. Or more likely to respond to other political and economic interests.

Why Do Chocolate Truffles Cost So Much

Forca Italy

I do not know if it makes me more horror the murderess Sarah Scazzi or right-thinking people who wake up everyday driven by indifference and become bloodthirsty forcaioli. There are many people who have the misfortune to die in spectacular fashion. But others have the misfortune to become prey of hyenas of newspapers and television stations, bars and offices. Poor Sarah Scazzi is an opportunity for a good journalist to make a scoop and the city to rediscover the healthy indignation that makes you feel at peace with your conscience. He says, "because he chooses and no deaths at work?"
In fact we propose the telenovela or liquidino the news of a death at work in a day, does not change much. In both cases, ultimately the means of "information" they have said absolutely nothing useful to try to understand, analyze, and maybe change a society that raises the dead.
First, one wonders why this case "makes news" (and thus arouses indignation) and many others do not. But the effect would be to say banal. Maybe it's more interesting to ask whether there is a connection between the fact that some things are news and the fact that outraged some things and not for others. It is indignant that we end up on command?
And many are asking why insist on the details of the murder with morbid desecration? It will be because people read them. And maybe we taste test. In the box "most read" corriere.it of these titles appear in order of most read:
1. "I have killed her after raping Sarah '
2. The mother hears the news petrified on live TV;
3. Training more paid sex mound to the San Siro;
4. Sarah was killed, his uncle, who confessed the corpse buried in the countryside;
5. Threats to Marcegaglia, searched the premises the daily newspaper "Il Giornale"

Some critics of the cynicism of "Chi l'ha visto?" which broke the news live in front of the mother. The paradox is that the cynicism of "Chi l'ha visto?" is the second most read news corriere.it. It will be the charm of the filth, but apparently people like to read the mother's live TV, transfixed by pain and what are those bastards in the Tv
It 's a good example of performance information. Today, the Ansa news agency securities with the statements made by a family that Assassin said: "Tom has to pay. It 'obvious that he must pay. The law provides for. Where's the news? There. And 'information-show. "This really has to pay is a Comment anywhere from older sports bar. And why not "They should put them all in a row and take a machine gun"? Why people does not provide that the penalties are punitive, but re-education. It will be a feel-good approach too, but in the seventies probably saw it as a breakthrough for a company out of a piece from the Middle Ages.
If the TV do the competition to see who gives the news first (at the cost of the mother shot in the face of live), the newspapers make up for the competition of television and the web with morbid details: raped her when she was alive or dead ? Where? How? Qu went? How many times? How long after she was dead? Details repugnant, which (who knows why) attract attention. To fill the space throws in the usual series of clichés: the agony of the mother, which close relatives in the reserve, people screaming to the gallows, the community that says, "so it seemed a good person, not the ' We never thought ", etc.. etc..
The spectacle of the pain makes audiences and journalists hyenas nourish and encourage the public morbidity. Then wash both the public consciousness yelling delusions forcaioli against criminals: "They should put them in jail and throw away the key." So the problem is solved, at least until the next murder.
You should instead ask a series of questions. The first is: there had been told that crime was rampant for roads, particularly by illegal immigrants bent on killing and raping in freedom? Not that the streets in the middle of the immigrants are more relaxed than in our own homes, where an uncle may harass, kill and rape his niece and no one has hints of his madness?
And the second question is: maybe it is more difficult and tiring, but it would certainly be more helpful to think about how to prevent crimes, rather than wasting time on unnecessary chatter to what the punishment should be cruel to punish them without the least this solves the problem ?
