How Many Dry Days Do U Have In A 31 Day Cycle

The two weights and two measures of the junta Salini

Source: Citizens against asbestos

Salini The junta continues to support the landfill project asbestos Canton Chapel (it is the opinion of 28 July in favor of granting the aid, the IPPC), although the same law stipulates that regional landfills can not be achieved where there is guaranteed protection of water resources.
recall that on 9 June, the TAR of Brescia annulled the measures through which the Region of Lombardy had authorized the operation of a landfill of asbestos in Brescia, Via Brocchi, due to insufficient investigation into being in the Region report the vulnerability of the geological site.

also remember that 30 September 2009 the council gave Salini rightly negative opinion on landfill project of asbestos belt de 'Botti with these reasons: the presence of ephemeral surface water, a situation roadway (highway Giuseppina) critical in terms of accidents, the area included in the plan as an area of \u200b\u200bwildlife and hunting, trapping and restocking, the presence surrounding areas identified as DOP and IGP, forecast construction of an industrial and a circuit car motorcycle.
not understand why you did not do the same with the landfill project in Canton Chapel where there are objective conditions far more severe than those observed in the other locations. We therefore
Salini and its environment commissioner Pinotti why they felt obliged to express a favorable opinion, and for the release of the EIA (environmental impact assessment) and AIA (IPPC), for the landfill project Asbestos in Canton Chapel where there is a 'hydrogeological instability much more severe than feared to Cingia de 'Botti and there is also the presence of springs, where the situation is equally critical roadway (highway Paullese) and nearby there are two agri-food establishments of the most important in Italy and a landfill for municipal solid waste being Post closure.
We are not willing to give individual and collective right to protect our health. The construction of this landfill is not a task for the "common good" is yet another result of a corrupt and ineffective environmental policy and its time to say ENOUGH!

Allergy Acetone Nails

Switzerland and we

little reflection on the kind invitation of the Swiss Confederation Council Dominique Baettig (pictured right) . I'll try to be brief and schematic, but I'm tempted to write a river.

Facts

Orm all to know that a few days ago, the Swiss Board of the Christian Right anti-European Dominique Conseil Fédéral Baettig proposed to the Swiss to vote on a motion presupposed that any easily integration of new cantons to the Confederation . Here's what he said Baettig:

Considering the lack of interest in the national and European political class suffered by certain neighboring regions, as well as their desire to win autonomy from the central (or from Brussels) , the Federal Council is committed to propose as soon as the Federal Assembly a constitutional framework and legal operation, which may allow, if desired by the majority of the population in question, the following departments, provinces and neighboring provinces:

Alsace (F); Aosta (I), Bolzano (I), Jura (F), Vorarlberg (A), Ain (F), Savoie (F), Baden-Württemberg (FRG), Varese (I ), Como (I) or others (the list is open),

who have already Espree sso this desire in the past, to join the Swiss Confederation Swiss cantons as new right of initiative and referendum, the benefits of a system of direct democracy.

The Federal Council , presumably fearing an invasion German Wehrmacht in the case of annexation of Stuttgart, has however responded spades :

A review of the Federal Constitution to enable the regions adjacent to our country to join the Swiss Confederation would be a hostile political act, that neighboring states might consider, and rightly so, provocative and would seriously damage relations with countries.

Such a review would not only be politically inconvenient, but also problematic in terms of international law . Violates the fundamental rules of international law, which does not recognize a general right of secession. The right of secession is only a last resort in exceptional circumstances, which obviously are not given in this case.

The full text of motion and its response is available here .

reactions

in Como have jumping for joy. According to an online survey - then of little value - out of 2,500 voters around 74% would gladly waving flags along the red cross beloved lake. The newspaper the Valle d'Aosta Aostasera.it launched a similar survey at the time, yet few voters (about 250), but similar rates to those of Lombardy (the 72% of Internet users Rossoneri violet color our cows pieces).

repeat that these surveys are as long as TROVAN oe are often dictated by the moods of the moment, they should be taken with the tongs. But surely lead to some reason.

Silence (almost) by the deafening local institutions. Apart from a quip Alberto Zucchi and ANSA a post on his blog of Luciano Caveri (see my comment below), no other reactions have emerged. Nothing President Rollandin - an institutional response would be appreciated -, an echo from the opposition (Zucchi in part, provided that it is still the opposition). Silence also by the President of the Mouvement Ego Perron, although it should be remembered that the party leader is inspired by the cantonal principles of federalism, as mentioned in the Declaration of Chivasso and many members of the Valle d'Aosta nationalism.

I was rather amazed at the reaction of Luciano Caveri. Former President Region has dismissed the affair with a <è solo folklore> that seems simplistic, especially by those who, not too long ago, ricordav aa Walter Veltroni risks of a resurgence in Valle d'Aosta secessionist . Besides, who is representative of the Valley at the Committee of Regions , we might have expected a stronger statement, attentive to the role that regions should play in the European team and consistent with the demand for greater autonomy and participation in decision-making of 'Union. Caveri for direct political experience, knows the subject, and broke it also demonstrated with some very careful steps to the European dimension of the VDA. His reaction to me seemed so distracted.

In short: missed opportunity? joke that does not follow up? Below, for those interested, I explain why, in my view, the VDA should pay more attention to the story .

Federal Question

the Italian state, for through the league, is showing signs of (para) federalism so do the stones. What little is known is that the model served up by the four assays Lorenzago and Prof. Antonini federalism is not true, but a mere devolution of powers and resources without a real clear plan. Moreover, the proposed model decrease the evidence in the territory of special autonomy, erasing centuries of history with four lines of constitutional law .

The motion was Baettig dun this serve as a battering ram to break down the door of federalism based sull'associazionismo volunteer in other words, you want the Federal VdA is part of Italy? Fine, but should also want to Valley. No federal state was never born to "unpacking" of a unitary state: Italy, apparently, will be the first case. But in the associations worthy of the name, including Switzerland, the populations of territorial units have been consulted before joining in a common government. The point is this: should be asked if Val d'Aosta, once approved, the federal reform of the Italian State, in this country still want to stay there.

The game (or the threat of a referendum) is worth the candle? Yes, and for two reasons: first, would be possible to negotiate with the Italian state greater powers (I think especially the representative to the European Parliament and the holding of a regional delegation in meetings of the EU Council of Ministers, as expected - and never used - since 2006) and greater autonomy in fiscal matters, in spite of the partnerships that I know how much of a sop, and secondly, in case of refusal to negotiate, the Valle d'Aosta could be carrying the true federalism, adopting a constitution (Like all U.S. states, for example) that configuration as a state within the Italian federation . And are also telling me that international law does not allow it: no one remembers the referendum for the secession of Montenegro from Serbia, Slovakia or the Czech Republic consumer ltazioni popular for the independence of Catalonia?

Europe

As reported in the last line of the paragraph above, it should be reported to the ethnic and political unrest that permeates Europe whole. We have entered a new phase of "Europe des Régions ethniques" (to use Guy Heraud) and not even realizing there are . The slow cleavage of Belgium, the next President of the EU, the peaceful transition of Montenegro, the Catalunya Sardinian separatists who return to grow, France, which opens to the reform of collectivités Territoriales are just some of the signs of an old Europe that no longer exists.

Valle d'Aosta, committed to looking at their toes (we read tax sharing agreements), can not see beyond his nose , and do not have the courage to appeal to those natural allies, France and Switzerland, which could sustain the dialogue, certainly difficult, with an Italian state that proclamations aside, it is extremely inattentive to the needs of local governments.

The idea of \u200b\u200ba Europe of regions is not of Bossi and Calderoli - as would have us believe, pompous of the title to Bruno Salvadori their meeting room in the House - but the so-called "not conformistes des années 30" French. and Alexandre Marc Denis de Rougemont are the most famous names of the school, followed by Guy Heraud , foster father of Québécois referendum for independence, and preceded, albeit in a more philosophical, by Pierre -Joseph Prudhon (left photo), French anarchist coiner of the idea of \u200b\u200bthe order. Today, these historical theories regional Europe and open to dialogue are mainly represented in Belgium - by Guy Verhofstadt in particular - and Spain, and should be heeded and followed, especially in a nation without a state like ours.

not continue with the Treaty of political philosophy not to bore anyone. If someone like me to know more about contacts . I am happy to discuss.

Nationalism

"Every human community with a reference common to their culture and their own historical tradition, developed over a specific geographical area [...] constitutes a people. Every people has the right to identify themselves as such. Every people has the right to assert itself as a nation . " (Universal Declaration of Collective Rights of Peoples - CONSEU, Barcelona, \u200b\u200bMay 27, 1990).

This is not about nationalism in the vulgar sense of the term, but of recognizing what he has done in a way quite astonishing anti-European right-handed Swiss the collapse of a system ormai impotente , quale quello degli Stati sorti, in maniera più o meno definitiva, dal termine della Prima Guerra Mondiale. Si tratta di stabilire un nuovo ordine istituzionale continentale, per dare nuova linfa ad un’Europa ferma , sovrastata in termini di energia e crescita – economica, culturale, morale – non solo dal Nordamerica ma ormai anche dall’Asia, dall’Oceania e, ben presto, dal Sudamerica.

Io nell’Europa unita ci credo . E credo anche nelle regioni e negli individui che vi vivono, quali elementi di crescita per un’Unione davvero attenta alla coesione del territorio che rappresenta. Someone around Europe - from Flanders to Catalonia, from Scotland to Montenegro, Macedonia to the Åland Islands - he understood. and Valle d'Aosta?

Why Does White Fluid Come Before Periods

That damned Third Bridge ...

is passing under a deafening silence of public opinion and yet another unheard ecological and environmental destruction in our country, supported and justified by the ever untouchable dogma of Development.
This time the victim chosen is the province of Cremona, which, almost careless, he finds himself undergoing a massive eco monster on its territory. The case is emblematic of Cremona to show the practice of imposing on the head of the pharaonic infrastructure from the environmental community and existential devastating for the profit of a few. A story that deserves to be shown on the bottom. The final draft of the new infrastructure (the so-called "third bridge over the Po"), commissioned by the company Autostrade Centropadane, involves the construction of a highway in payment of 12 km linking the provinces of Piacenza and Cremona, and a new 200 meter bridge with piers in the water on the Po , crossing the wetlands and approximately 9 km of rural areas of Castelvetro Piacentino.
The expected impact will be devastating.
addition to the removal of soil (almost 300 acres of riverside areas, agricultural areas of great value) followed by fractionation and usability of agricultural areas, will be distorted by the EU three protected areas, fragmented habitat of 1000 hectares of play and lost tens of thousands of protected animals (birds and fish). For the uninitiated a few hundred meters from the area, thanks to the foresight of town and country planning work of previous administrations, in Cremona were approved over the years a refinery (Tamoil), a storage of liquefied gases (Abibes) and a LPG bottling plant (Liquigas), all establishments classified by the Legislative Decree 334/99 as a category C-Seveso, places where dangerous substances are present in such quantities as to constitute a risk of a major accident. " In addition
that, in order not to fail anything, in the same area were also authorized the company SOL (production storage and release of liquefied gases in cylinders), the mill pumpkin, and the steel pipe factory Arvedi (recently expanded its landfill 250,000 cubic meters) and the silos of plastic materials of the multinational Katoen Natie.
Everything is at a ridiculous distance from the town, that compromising compatibility with a minimum quality of life. Not even a crazy plan could do better! At this point, think to pass in the midst of this tinderbox a highway to six lanes wide to 50 feet is really too much. The purpose of this is the usual to streamline the heavy traffic and not to speed the transport of goods, particularly in an area not blocked, since it has about 3000 vehicles per day (reduced by 10% in recent years). The project included a 2005 traffic to 2020 of 12,000 vehicles per day, that of 2008 has moved to 2033 estimates, increasing the flow to 43,000 vehicles per day. Even the final draft of 31/03/10 does not cite any study to date on traffic flow! This project disproportionate costs (we are talking about 200 million euro), driven directly by the company that builds the infrastructure and unrelated to any regional planning, has entirely failed to take into account the different alternatives existing design and apply, much less expensive, and impacting. Despite the scale and importance of infrastructure, almost no one knows the bottom of the project, except for some detail on things already done, since in recent months and years, the active involvement of citizens, local government and independent experts in design processes and decision-making has flirted zero. The only institution that has made heavy reserves is the Emilia Romagna Region, which has developed a 53-page document on the project, not accepted by the Ministry in the opinion of the EIA. Nor can the various objections made to change things, since the same vertex of Centropadane said that there is no going back. If
we want to Cremona is one of many great little local cases, but it shows perfectly how we are sacrificing and sold off without flinching the most precious things we have: health, environment and quality of life. This model of development based on unlimited growth and profit, consider the territory as a mere inexhaustible resource and its protection and safeguarding the financial interests and often subject to speculation. We accept a deleterious mechanism that allows the sale of a collective heritage and exhaustible resources like soil and clean air to enrich various politicians and businessmen. Want to switch from one bank of the Po in a moment without finding code, but by destroying an entire ecosystem? The costs of progress, some may say. But to our lives and our future guests think? The very few who are moving but fighting against yet another layer of cement and yet another insult to the territory, are already labeled as the usual suckers environmentalists, "no professionals." Patience
we go forward.
