Respiration Rates Reptile And Mammal
Guareschi has explicitly defined at the beginning of his work, Don Camillo and Peppone like two people "united on the essentials": what does it mean?
The characters of Guareschi's books are real people, most of the characters of the film (which in fact Guareschi had expressed some misgivings). They are characters that depart from their desire for truth and justice, from a living faith in a human way, by a communist ideal, which seeks to address the need for justice. So that people can not meet. Guareschi ago with his books, that Italy which, while having very different ideas in it, has built a profound unity in the welfare of our country. It is the people of our nation, which has been much more united because of the ideological divide they have split, and this is why these people are met.
You speak of a people remained together, which means that the issue is not nostalgically evoke a world, the "small world", which now no longer ...
The people are united by an event that generates a 'units, and the people of Guareschi joined from occurring in the life of a country living from the desire for truth. The people of Guareschi were people for whom faith was the answer to the desire for truth, and that communism was a response to the desire for justice. This is not a thing of the past: each position brings with it a human response to a need.
So what's the point of Guareschi's news?
The point of relevance is the deep desire for truth, without which faith is dead, and without which the ideal becomes ideology is that people need without which our country is not going anywhere, whatever the type of government that will. I think especially after what he said Giussani Nasiriyah, "if there was an education of the people, all would be better off." In Guareschi's books that education is understood that there was indeed, and it was the determining factor.
What does it mean that education is a key factor in the world narrated by Guareschi?
means that Don Camillo, beyond the caricatures of the film, is a character who never fails to educate and educate. The Education of Don Camillo comes back on the continued discussion after each error: not a character with no errors, is a passionate, deeply believes that, with faith, that humanity, that believes in the people around him, but understands make mistakes. This continued to admit the mistake and start is the education that you submit and which bring the people of the country. Peppone itself is one that, although it was in a period of total ideology (one that bubbles with Guareschi Candido's), fighting this ideology in the name of the true desire for justice. So we understand why, when there is a strike for not milking cows to milk Peppone be secretly with Don Camillo, once it reaches the ideology that creates hatred in the country, is opposed, when they replace with the young priest Don Camillo cattocomunista young, he's with Don Camillo. It is continuing education, from Don Camillo and Peppone, the people who have around, and around them are growing all the other characters.
you opposed to the young priest Don Camillo cattocomunista, yet many say that the friendship between Don Camillo and Peppone is the archetype of the agreement between Catholics Communists and
tell you a story that makes clear the inadequacy of that cattocomunismo, and all cattocomunismi. The young priest who replaces Don Camillo pontificate from the pulpit against the old man who works, and causes to be brought to the hospice, the day after the same old man is found dead under the wall of the hospice, because he tried to climb over to return to live and work, and do things without which there could be. This is the point: the young priest is the ideology of a Christianity that does not serve even those who practice it, because it becomes a justicialism like what we see today is not for real people. The position of Don Camillo instead is multifaceted, is meeting with people, listening to the people, and is, in the name of faith that responds to human, the ability to perceive the needs, one by one. The young priest, however, is the standardization of needs.
The incident just narrated brings to mind the importance of work in the stories of Guareschi
Peppone Not for nothing is above all a great mechanic. Even Peppone, party chief and mayor, is exempt from this. Because the work is part of the people, the common people working, eating, partying, family does. These are all things together. They are united only in the analysis of intellectuals, columnists who write on the major newspapers. In speeches, that is, all those who have never understood the people, and which in fact have always considered Guareschi a lesser writer.
Indeed Guareschi's work, rather than criticized, was snubbed by critics, in fact considered "minor" Why?
inform you one thing: less is considered by critics who, just to have semipornografici acclaimed novels by Alberto Moravia. They are the ones that give value to a culture is not left, but radical, which made the charts entirely ideological ignored Manzoni, Bacchelli, have decreased by Rebora, have forgotten Ada Negri. Those, then, that in the end they preferred that the Nobel went to Dario For instead of Mario Luzi. It is critical to the exertion, the "culturame" that has ruined post-war Italy and has entertained in the papers that are all the rage. This is the worst part of Italian history. Guareschi instead is a great writer, is one of the greatest representatives of Italian fiction, especially in the vein of Manzoni, and shares with the great ability to read and faceted person to person. It is the great tradition of Catholic literature. And that's why he had a popular success and critical acclaim in the world.
A great Catholic tradition in the stories of Guareschi This is made even by the figure of Christ speaking. What does this?
Christ who speaks to you is, is the true faith in which Christ is a You. At the beginning of the Little World, to get rid of false Orthodox Guareschi says if you take it with the fact that I talk about Christ, know that Christ is the Christ of whom I speak my conscience. What does it mean? What is you who is in reality and that is within you. This Christ is the objective that speaks to you in Christ, and the you with the "t" capital "with which everyone has to do.
Finally, another essential element in the stories of Guareschi is its land, Lower, without which his characters almost could not exist ...
Don Camillo could not be written either in Brianza, either in Varese, either in Sicily or in the Ciociaria, or anywhere else. It is the fruit of that world is talking about at the beginning of Lower Small World, that world of fog that can appear one day to talk to the ghost of a dead friend, when the earth is alive, that somehow the landscape , environment, nature, animals are at one with the man. A quiet world: the land around the river, so little rhetoric, so little arrogant and presumptuous, whose beauty is a woman who does not show, but so deeply human. It is a land shaped by man over the centuries, a nature that is totally in his own image and at the same time has been characterized by that I do not know that wild, which is not primitive, but it is precisely not tamed. So the characters are the characters of the Lower Gianni Brera are the characters in a few years later, the characters in the Mulino del Po, characters such as Mother Cabrini, Giussani, St Richard Pampuri. These saints subdued, but in the long run are like wine from this area, with the aftertaste that comes out, without having imposed early in a violent way.

Why My Computerdoesnt Recognize My Sanyo 2700

Resistance was founded by the Italian soldiers "legitimacy," remained faithful to the oath to the king, who took up arms against the Germans since September 8. During the war of liberation fought alongside the Allies killed 35,000 soldiers and the refusal to adhere to the republic of Mussolini were interned by the Germans at 600,000 in German concentration camps from which they returned in 78,000.
The leaders of the resistance were: a political liberal, Pizzoni Alfredo (president from September '43 to April '45 then Cln-Fascist Committee of Upper Italy) and a military General Raffaele Cadorna (commander of the Volunteers of Liberty or the unified command of the Brigades guerrilla). Longo and Parry were the "leaders" of the Resistance, but the "vice" Cadorna. To animate
immediately underground network in Rome was the royalist Colonel Montezemolo, who was shot at the Fosse Ardeatine.
The partisan struggle was therefore a popular movement characterized by a multitude of components and also with many young depoliticized. To allow the survival and development of partisan brigades were essentially two stands: one allies with weapons and funding and the other the rural Catholic population (defined by Gaetano Salvemini "The fourth army" in the field) which protected, fed and hid partisans coming up against ruthless reprisals.
That was not all communist-led resistance, but a part, indeed, precisely a resistance parallel. This development "in part" reflects the directives of Stalin, who did not consider the anti-fascist units a landing, but only a transition phase with a view to the next inevitable showdown between communism and democracy: This was expressed during a meeting at the Kremlin in 1945: "The crisis of capitalism - said Stalin to Dimitrov that the notes in his Diaries - found expression in the capitalist division into two factions: a fascist, the other democratic. It has created an alliance between us and the current democratic capitalist, because it was concerned not to allow Hitler's rule, because this brutal rule would lead the working class and the overthrow of capitalism to the extreme. We are now at a fraction against the other, but in the future we will also be against this fraction of the capitalists. " Resistance
This "parallel" of the Communist Party took shape in particular with the establishment of the GAP (Patriotic Action Groups) which gave life to the urban terrorism outside of CLN with actions like the attack in Via Rasella (that of Rome refused Cln to approve) and the murder of Giovanni Gentile (Florence condemned the CLN). The Resistance "parallel" through events like the massacre at Porzus of non-Communist partisans who refused to be incorporate by the Yugoslav army, culminated on the eve of the German retreat, with the establishment outside of Italy Alta Cln "triumvirate insurgency" in the conduct of the Communists' "anti-fascist cleansing" in the North starting from Emilia Romagna. Resistance is in the light of this "parallel" that terrorism must be seen, which was inspired by the communists after the war.
The communication is part of the Italian resistance - That was movement in which brigades and Catholic populations played a key role - as a model since the English Civil War. Thus, outside of the CLN and so lonely and illegitimate, brought their "cleansing" Whereas Fascists - and then murdered - Catholics, even priests and seminarians, as teenagers Rolando Rivi (which is in the process of beatification) who was brutally tortured and murdered, buried like a dog in a forest after a "trial" in which he was condemned to death as a "fascist spy" Rolando just because he liked wearing the cassock.
The story of Rolando Rivi (which was the center of a section Show the last Meeting of Rimini dedicated precisely to the "resistance gate") is atrocious example of a "resistance" that should not be confused with the national liberation struggle and should not be celebrated, and rebuilt, remembered and condemned as a the most shameful pages of national ignominy.

Oxford Freedom Plan And Birth Control
When Silvio Berlusconi to the Matrix law his "heartfelt" thanks to the voters and the slew of reforms in the pipeline, it is finished. Everything as expected. And even more. Triumphs at the PDL and the vote is polarized around the two major parties. League superstar. Decent electoral baptism for the Democratic Party. Good result of DiPietro. Centrists reduced to a flicker. And epochal collapse of the famous "no everything" peace, green, ricomunisti, anti-globalization, anti-American, and so on. That in the next legislature will not even have a representative in Parliament. Hats off to the voters. And military honors at Walter Veltroni. That does not even wait for the end of counting votes to present a good hour before the cameras, to acknowledge defeat and to wish "good job with Silvio Berlusconi." In short, the fifteen-led war against the Knight of Arcore by an array of formidable powers ended in a very formidable happy ending. Who would have thought? And to think that early exit polls on the two major newspapers were not ready to share their desires for miracles. "The Democratic Party is the first, online versions of the title, the Republic and the Corriere della Sera at 15.15 on Monday 14 April. At this point, Berlusconi can not go wrong. The voters have offered him on a silver platter the attributes to make an executive of war. One executive who will deliver the maximum of decisions and break with the mighty nullified.
Unfortunately, the triumph of the center does not have the power to annul the dramatic situation facing the country. Just to recap. Productivity, wages, economic freedom and social justice, demography ... all dedicated zero. The state of things Italian that the Prodi government over the government that comes from the ballot box is a coffin. There was no treasure to spend. Last year the number of Italian families who do not get to the end of the month grew by 57 percent. The prison break. And we must also pay damages to Europe for the affair rubbish. In short, waiting for the economy come up, he wrote three days before the vote, the irregular veltroni Ricolfi Luke, you can not escape: "We must take action on at least 80 billion annual waste of the public." We'll see what he will do now with PD leader. If you continue to follow the wrong advice of the great newspapers. Or if, as seems likely, will take note of the facts and to lead a constructive opposition acconcerà work compared to the enormous problems that the Italian people. However, we are no longer in the nineties. We are in the spring of 2008. All the wealth that was to be played out to Berlusconi has been played. The bottom of the barrel has been scraped. Now the new government is expected to breach of an undertaking to shake the veins on her wrists. What about the other? That even a little advice for us we would Captain Silvio. The expose with greater detail in the next issue. But here, the day after news that the Italian people waited for decades - finally a parliament pruned from the plethora of small parties and a strong majority, which provides governance - we like to give a taste. In short: there is a unique bipartisan principle that in recent years has made its way to the point that right and left have agreed to raise it to constitutional principle. It is the principle of subsidiarity. Maurizio Lupi For years, the rising star of the PDL, he led a large squad of MPs of both parties who have acquired a clear awareness of the need to move from "welfare state" to "welfare society". This is a revolutionary innovation that we believe should characterize the long-awaited period of reform (first of all, it Hopefully, fiscal federalism). Flipping the paradigm of the state all-powerful, interventionist and wasteful that has undermined Italy. And the example of bipartisan reform inaugurated by Lombardy, finally implementing the famous slogan "more of the companies, not the state." From education to health, work for international cooperation, scientific research to the care of public parks (as seen even in the district of Catania Librino, see article on page 15) need to free society from corruption, inefficiency, and pervasive statism. It is important that all those sectors in which up to now has been carried out the policy of tax and spend are returned to the free initiative of individuals and undertaken and social groups. Subsidiarity, said in a nutshell, it means that the state does not intrude where there is no need for him. And what do his duty where there is a need instead of his presence.
The ministry serving
question is the famous North-South played backwards from the left, as documented by the wise Ricolfi Hostages of the State. The state must take a step back. Must perform a function of mere guarantor of the public good. Must loosen its grip on people and not replace the action of most economic and social forces. The North has resources to manage themselves without failing in its contribution to the nation and solidarity most disadvantaged regions? Well. Do it work in peace and freedom, without requiring him models of economy, taxation, education, security, immigration and so on, dropped from Rome. The South needs to basic conditions of legality? Well. We guarantee military protection, social development and economic support to all those people who simply do not produce or slogan justice-dreamers, but the facts, business, vocational training, education, education, which are indispensable factors for "remaking the people" and create jobs and GDP .
The gold of the South are young people, tourism, art, nature and culture. It's time to make money from this wealth and leave the road welfarism hairy, investment in the company to lose the whining, the posture of victimhood and frustration. We invest on people who work and produce, not on the committees on anti-mafia in movies and octopuses 1 and 27. The antecedents of this good policy we know them well (although, to date, focused as they were four sull'antipolitica money, the media have talked about and badly). It is the policy of 5 per thousand invented by Giulio Tremonti. Health and school vouchers are invented by Roberto Formigoni in his 14 years of good governance in Lombardy. They are the cultural battles of Giuliano Ferrara ...
But we'll talk. For now, given that Berlusconi has already said that the departments will be twelve and has appointed three ministers, our suggestion is that the Welfare transformed into a "Ministry for the implementation of policies of subsidiarity". The Knight is now in history. Not even the Christian Democrats of the best years ever had the numbers of the PDL. The void left and 100 deputies and 30 senators in the opposition more. A perfect storm. Now Italy can really turn. And sussidierietà become the dawn of a new Italy, freer and more popular. Well, if Silvio Berlusconi will compete in this undertaking, go beyond the myth of Alcide De Gasperi.
