La corsa di Ignazio Marino alla segreteria del Partito Democratico passa per Formia. Una fermata obbligatoria per il ruolo rivestito nella mozione da Sandro Bartolomeo. Ed è proprio l'ex sindaco a lanciare il senatore chirurgo, il king maker di questa competizione: l'agitatore dei diritti civili. Il Pd a cui pensa Ignazio Marino deve applicare «quel metodo laico» di cui è vivace sostenitore. «Ognuno porti con passione, con entusiasmo le proprie idee, le proprie convinzioni, la propria cultura, ma alla fine si faccia una sintesi e tutti ci si senta realmente obbligati a sostenere la decisione che si è presa a maggioranza» afferma il senatore incassando l'applauso convinto dei presenti. La Sala Ribaud è piena. Ma non ci sono solo quelli della mozione. Ci sono i bersaniani e i pro Franceschini. C'è il popolo delle primarie, ma ci sono anche i disillusi: «E' il solito discorso dei politici». Ma Marino piace. Strappa applausi e consensi. C'è chi annuisce quando afferma: «Io credo che abbiamo una risorsa straordinaria. Abbiamo le persone. Sciogliamo queste correnti che producono solo poteri, sottopoteri, controllo e non danno entusiasmo, passione e nuove idee. Utilizziamo una sola corrente, la corrente delle persone, della gente e dei circoli» esalta i presenti. In fondo è proprio questo che chiede la base del Pd. «Io voglio un partito che ritorni alle persone. Che interroghi la gente. Ve lo dico con grande chiarezza. Se per esempio sul tema del testamento biologico, interrogando tutti voi, in tutt'Italia il 98% di voi arrivasse a dire che la pensa come Paola Binetti, io in un Partito Democratico me ne farei una ragione. Ma se il 98% di voi dice che deve avere la libertà di scegliere a quali terapie accedere» lasciando fuori dalla propria stanza il legislatore, «anche Paola Binetti se ne deve fare una ragione» scandisce il senatore. I diritti civili sono il suo cavallo di battaglia. Uno spazio democratico in cui far confluire le istanze tanto degli omosessuali quanto degli immigrati. Su questo tema rilancia: «Sull'immigrazione le regole devono essere chiare, ma devono rispettare le persone». Quindi facendo leva sulla sua esperienza, racconta: «Negli Usa, pagavo regolarmente le tasse, ma non mi è mai capitato di stare in una tenda al freddo per rinnovare il permesso di soggiorno». Diritti, diritti e ancora diritti quando si parla di respingimenti, per i quali nutre una personale riserva, sposando quell'orientamento giuridico che solleva qualche dubbio di legittimità su tale pratica, lesivo del diritto d'asilo. «L'immigrazione attraverso il mare - conclude Marino - è assai limitata rispetto alle altre modalità illegali di ingresso. Si diano, invece, più mezzi alle polizie di frontiera» rileva il candidato. Un discorso ricco di spunti e di grande respiro ideale, che non trascura certo la green economy, che «fa sia bene all’ambiente e crea lavoro», la giustizia sociale, e la legalità. Convince i presenti, se ce ne fosse stato già bisogno. La vera sfida, però, è quella di riavvicinare i delusi. Se questa missione sarà stata superata lo vedremo il 25 ottobre.

This combination lamp/clock/cigarette lighter is multi-tasking its little heart out. From the Venetian blind shade down to the working cigarette lighter in the receiver, all its features still work (and I've got a burn in my palm to prove it). The only thing it doesn't do is function as a telephone. This wonderful lamp is the antithesis of the major tenet of Bauhaus design: form follows function. This one's got great form, but its function ran off into three different directions. From www.tackytreasures.com/

The stoat (Mustela erminea), also known as the short-tailed weasel, is a species of Mustelidae native to Eurasia and North America, distinguished from the least weasel by its larger size and longer tail with a prominent black tip. The name ermine is often, but not always, used for the animal in its pure white winter coat, or the fur thereof.[2] In the late 19th century, stoats were introduced into New Zealand to control rabbits. The stoats have had a devastating effect on native bird populations (see stoats in New Zealand).
It is classed by the IUCN as Least Concern, due to its wide circumpolar distribution, and because it does not face any significant threat to its survival.[1] It was named one of the world's top 100 "worst invasive species" by the IUCN Species Survival Commission's Invasive Species Specialist Group.[3]
The ermine luxury fur is often used by Catholic monarchs, Pontiffs and Cardinals who sometimes use it as the mozetta cape, and devotional images such as the Infant Jesus of Prague. It also forms part of the parliamentary and coronation robes of British peers of the Realm.

Aura Tannen and Stixen Stones of ODD Presents, Rebel Revel femcees, introducing Act 2
Photo by Rachel Rampleman
CINCINNATI, OH—REBEL REVEL came to the Cincinnati Arts Association’s Alice F. and Harris K. Weston Art Gallery in the atrium of the Aronoff Center for the Arts on Saturday, June 8th, to celebrate the closing of Oh! You Pretty Things—a nearly twenty year survey exhibition of the incomparable documentary and experimental video work of Cincinnati native and Brooklyn-based multimedia artist Rachel Rampleman. Oh! You Pretty Things was a kaleidoscopic array of many of the artist’s single- and multi-channel videos from her extensive creative catalogue, along with brand new works from the Life is Drag series out of New York City.
Oh! You Pretty Things opened at the Weston Art Gallery April 19 and continued through June 16 throughout both levels of the Weston—creating an unforgettable immersive gallery experience.
REBEL REVEL was a one-night-only festival celebrating those who truly and boldly push the limits of gender expression by combining drag, burlesque, avant-garde fashions, and radical makeup with subversive and often political performances. Inspired by Rampleman’s vivid video explorations of identity and set amongst a dazzlingly tall Mylar curtain backdrop, suspended disco ball, and accent stage lighting, the performing artists and models activated the Weston’s voluminous street-level space with their visually stunning creativity, featuring:
• A drag extravaganza including performances by ODD Presents, the new Cincinnati-based alternative drag haus committed to presenting queer-centric entertainment in all its forms;
• Draglesque by nationally renowned and legendary local male illusionist Alexander Cameron;
• Burlesque by Ginger LeSnapps, head mistress of the award-winning Cin City Burlesque and RAW Artists Cincinnati Performing Artist of the Year; plus Cincinnati’s brand new Smoke & Queers—a queer coed amateur burlesque troupe that encourages all expressions of self, gender, identity, and sexuality;
• Runway shows with gender-bending looks from Northside's NVISION and NYC's LACTIC Incorporated;
• The premiere of the latest fantastical art-couture stylings by costume and wig designer Stacey Vest of Sweet Hayseed’s Wearable Wonders.
Pentimento: the presence or emergence of earlier images, forms, or strokes that have been changed and painted over.

Espacios Bioseguros
“Necesitamos tomar medidas preventivas de forma urgente bajo el paradigma del uso de las mejores tecnologías”
Luis de la Fuente Ramírez, presidente de ABQ, presentó Espacios Bioseguros junto al decano del Colegio de Biólogos de la Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid (COBCM), Ángel Fernández Ipar, como “un concepto en el que destacamos una serie de medidas de prevención para la población general por medio de un conjunto de soluciones tecnológicas para prevenir y minimizar los riesgos de contagio en, por ejemplo, espacios interiores, medios de transporte y otros, con el objetivo de controlar los agentes contaminantes de una forma eficaz y sostenible desde el punto de vista medioambiental y económico”. Por otro lado, “los profesionales debemos de controlar de forma eficaz los riesgos de contagio, tanto en las superficies como en el empleo de los materiales de trabajo que utilizamos todos los días”, matizó Ramírez a lo largo de su exposición.
Con motivo del acto de presentación de las Olimpiadas de Biología de la Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid, los responsables de ABQ dieron a conocer los objetivos de la entidad, así como el proyecto Espacios Bioseguros.
De esta manera, ABQ, entidad europea especializada en bioseguridad, “desea llevar a cabo un protocolo de implantación de un certificado de calidad para garantizar el Espacio Bioseguro en las empresas e instituciones con un 80% de éxito en todos los análisis que hagamos a partir de ahora”, indicaron los responsables de la asociación.
Recordemos que “ABQ ha logrado seleccionar, junto a los colegios de biólogos de las distintas Comunidades Autónomas, soluciones eficientes que han sido contrastadas por la NASA”, concluyó Ramírez.
De esta manera, la asociación ABQ participó en las Olimpiadas de Biología de la Comunidad de Madrid, organizadas por el Colegio de Biólogos de la Comunidad de Madrid (COBCM) con el patrocinio de la Consejería de Educación y la colaboración de la Universidad Complutense, Universidad Autónoma y Editorial Santillana.

*The annual meeting of the Roseworthy Indoor Bowling Club was held on Thursday night, when the following officers were elected: — President, E Rice: Captain H Dahlitz: Secretary, J Thompson: Treasurer, G H Bammann. Ref: Bunyip (Gawler SA) Friday 8 July 1927.

*ROCA Digest – Autumn 2019
However, during two recent oral history recordings, one with the Hon Dr Bruce Eastick AM (RDA 1947) and the other with Brian Condon OAM (RDA 1946), they both talked about the Saturday night dances held every month, an important event on the social calendar for male students at the time. Back to the beginning: In 1929, the local Girl Guides needed a hall, so a committee was formed. The College Principal at the time, Walter Birks, chaired the first committee. A loan was secured from the State Bank for a hall to be constructed on land (about ½ hectare) purchased from Bill Fairley for £25. The hall cost £270, built by Sidney Halford Pimlott, completed in 1931. However, the Girl Guides and Scouts got into financial difficulties and could not service the loan.
A group of locals came forward and took over the Hall that was then used for indoor bowls, table tennis, dances, wedding receptions, meetings and other events. The Kangaroo Flat Indoor Bowling Club was formed in 1934 and is still going in 2019.
The Table Tennis Club started in 1953, an added activity enjoyed by the locals. I must say that so far in my research I have not found any reference to student participation in the bowls and table tennis. Perhaps they wanted these activities for the locals only and didn’t want to get swamped by a mob of lads!
The dances were another matter though. Both Brian Condon and Bruce Eastick had attended these. Bruce ended up as MC in his last couple of years as a student. Bruce recalls that there was a fairly good supper laid on at the dance and to the young men at Roseworthy College, young women and good food were both attractive (especially as there was food rationing at the time). However, there was a bit of a scheme hatched by the senior students. Young women were chaperoned by their mothers who brought the supper. So to ensure a regular supply of supper, the First Years were directed to make sure all the girls had regular dances during the evening. There were to be no ‘wallflowers’ at this dance – if girls stopped attending it would decrease the supply of good suppers!
The band was a simple ensemble of a pianist and a basic drum kit. A piano accordion or other instruments joined in on some nights. The dances waned as motor transport became more common and Gawler became the main attraction for socialising. Many of us will remember the ‘New Boys Test’ as part of our initiation into life at the College in our first couple of weeks as First Years.
NEWS FROM THE ARCHIVES On a blank map of the college, among all the buildings, staff houses, landmarks, facilities etc to identify, there was an old galvanized iron hall at the very north of the staff houses along the road to Wasleys just short of the entrance to the old Piggery. This was known as the ‘Tin Tabernacle’. The proper name was actually the Kangaroo Flat Hall but no one at College seemed to know that. There didn’t seem to be much other information about it. It didn’t belong to the College and I don’t think any student had been in it for a long time when I started in 1968. The Tin Tabernacle – blast from the past!
The Hall is a great survivor given its age and wooden structure. There is reference in the Club Minutes to the Hall being treated for white ants in 1956. Perhaps they used DDT which, with a shelf life of 50 years, would account for its resilience, given it's still standing on wooden stumps 87 years later. Ms Evelyn Stanley, a descendent from one of the original families that started the Indoor Bowling Club, is now ‘anchor person’ for the club and has lived through its entire history. She very kindly agreed to show us around - the Hon Dr Bruce Eastick, David Purdie (Manager of Student Services) and myself.
The Hall interior is a step back in time, well preserved with accompanying memorabilia of honour rolls, tournament pennants, photos, framed certificates etc. If those walls could talk, a lot of local history would be recalled. Ref: Ref: The Roca Digest Autumn 2019 online

En las montañas de Saboya del siglo XVIII, las cabras convivieron con las vacas en las granjas y el exceso de leche se transformó en queso. Hoy en día, el Chevrotin siempre se fabrica exclusivamente en la granja (fermier)... ¡y a mano! Su técnica de fabricación también es única en el caso del queso de cabra: es un queso de pasta prensada no cocida, de corteza lavada, que se obtiene con leche entera y cruda de cabra mediante una producción exclusivamente artesana; tiene forma de cilindro de 9 a 12 centímetros de diámetro y de 3 a 4,5 centímetros de altura, y su peso oscila entre 250 y 350 gramos y se asemeja a un pequeño Reblochon.
Tiene una corteza delgada, ligeramente rosada y recubierta total o parcialmente por una fina capa blanca compuesta principalmente de Geotrichum. La pasta, suave y untuosa, puede presentar un núcleo más duro y pequeñas aberturas, tiene color crema es ligeramente salada, y presenta en boca un gusto agradable de cabra, con notas florales y lácticas, el sabor es intenso, almendrado y maravillosamente complejo.
El Chevrotin es un queso con AOC desde enero de 2001.

The Bayon temple forms the heart of the old capital of Angkor Thom and is one of the highlights of a visit to Cambodia, second only to nearby Angkor Wat as a marvel of ancient Khmer architecture. At first glance one can be forgiven for thinking it isn't architecture at all but some kind of natural rock formation, its many towers resembling rocky outcrops pointing at the sky. The true nature of these towers is only revealed as one approaches and sees the multitude of huge carved faces smiling down from them, a feature for which this temple is justly renowned.
Built in the late 12th or early 13th century by King Jayavarman VII, the temple was originally intended as a Hindu place of worship but was soon after adapted to Buddhist use when the state religion of Angkor shifted from one faith to the other. As a result the identity of the great faces is uncertain, some see them as the benign face of Buddha or the bodhisatva Lokesvara while others maintain that the Hindu god Brahma is the more likely candidate. It has also been considered that they may respresent King Jayavarman VII himself owing to the resemblance of surviving statues of him, which have the same serene smile. Whatever the truth of their identity, the cast their serene gazes over visitors from all directions and make a visit to the temple's upper terraces (from where they can be seen at close quarters) all the more memorable.
The temple is formed by an enormous (and craggy looking) central stupa surrounded by many smaller towers with faces carved on all four sides arising from raised terraces. Around the entire temple is a (formerly) covered corridor adorned with an extensive sequence of reliefs depicting historical and mythological scenes. This would normally be a major attraction in itself, but most visitors will only see certain sections of the reliefs as the more impressive architectural flourishes of the temple's heart inevitably command the most attention.
The Bayon temple is a place that has fascinated me ever since childhood when I first saw images from my mother's visit here in the 1960s. There is simply no other ancient monument quite like it!

Since most people are so used to only seeing the polished diamonds in the market, some of you may be surprised that these stones are actually diamonds. But yes, raw diamonds actually come in a variety of different colors, shapes and sizes, and are a delight to the eye!
All the diamonds we sell are real genuine diamonds. The exact same diamonds that are usually cut into polished diamonds.
But don't take our word for it, any 'diamond tester' which can be purchased on Ebay/Amazon for as low as $13 will confirm that. You can also show the diamonds to your local jeweler, and if he has any experience dealing with rough diamonds, he'll be able to attest to that too.
You can mount these uncut diamonds in jewelry as they are, or have them sent to be cut into polished diamonds.
All of our diamonds are 100% naturally mined and haven't been cut, faceted, polished, or undergone any kind of process whatsoever. This makes them ideal for an investment, since while polished diamond prices fluctuate, rough diamonds only appreciate over the years.
Our diamonds are personally guaranteed to be conflict free. We strictly follow the Kimberly Process Procedures to stop conflict diamonds or blood diamonds from entering the market.
