Patata non era un cane del canile di Castrovillari.
Patata è nata randagia a Castrovillari e in canile non ci è mai
entrata tranne che gli ultimi giorni prima della partenza, per il
microchip e le vaccinazioni.
Questo splendore mix maremmanina bianco e arancio è stata trovata
due anni fa, a due mesi, tutta spelacchiata e affamata sotto un
cespuglio, da Irene, la sua volontaria calabrese.
Che lha nutrita e vista crescere randagia, nel branchetto fuori dal
canile.
Inutile nasconderlo, Irene ha sempre avuto un debole per Patata.
Forse per la sua timidezza (adora le coccole ma bisogna andargliele
a fare), per i suoi occhi innocenti, per la sua infinità bontà, per
la sua ehm
pigrizia che non la fa essere proprio un cane scattante,
ma quasi una gattona buona e sorniona che ama osservare il mondo
sdraiata e sonnecchiante, per la sua dolcezza e affettuosità che sa
mostrare molto bene dopo che ti ha conosciuto un po perché
allinizio è proprio sulle sue.
Salita in staffetta lo scorso marzo perché richiesta a Verona e poi
rifiutata dai suoi adottanti (per fortuna!), è arrivata al Nord dopo
che Irene le aveva trovato uno stallo di fortuna giù a Castrovillari
perché il suo branco era stato decimato, come detto più volte.
Lho messa in pensione solo grazie alla generosità della mia amica
volontaria Valeria che ringrazio pubblicamente, come ringrazio
lamico Enrico che si è dato molto da fare per lei e si un po
innamorato di questa cucciolona di foca bianca dagli occhioni neri
sperduti.
Patata è scesa dalla staffetta a Milano paralizzata dal terrore,
stanca e con gli occhi arrossati per lo stress. Ma non era solo
stanchezza: Patata era malata ma noi ancora non lo sapevamo.
Dal primo rifugio è stata cacciata in quattro e quattro otto perché
dopo pochissimi giorni ha iniziato a perdere sangue rosso vivo
dallintestino. Paura del contagio per gli altri cani. Sta di fatto
che per Patata ci hanno dato un massimo di 12-24 ore di tempo per
trovarle unaltra sistemazione.
Patata aveva dei brutti parassiti intestinali: oltre ai tricuridi,
gli strongili che salgono nei polmoni e che lavrebbero uccisa se
non lavessimo curata.
Portata in una bella pensione, pulitissima e organizzatissima, ha
fatto il suo ciclo di antibiotici ed è guarita.
E sabato 20, laltro ieri, dopo che Enrico l'ha recuperata dal
parrucchiere che lha pulita e gonfiata come un peluche, labbiamo
condotta in Toscana dalla splendida Nicoletta, da sua figlia, una
bimba ADORABILE, e dai suoi genitori accoglienti e sorridenti.
E stato stupendo incontrare queste persone meravigliose,
innamoratesi di Patata dalle sole foto e dalla descrizione; persone
generose, dal cuore grande, simpatiche, affabili, dai sentimenti
veri, puliti e intensi. Ed è stato fantastico, anche locchio vuole
la sua parte, che questa meravigliosa famiglia ha accolto con amore
Patata nella sua casa vive in uno dei posti più belli del mondo: il
Chianti fiorentino!
Patata è buffissima: non sa fare le scale e non è che si sia mossa
molto. Adoro prenderla in giro, chiamandola Movida madrilena e
dicendole di non agitarsi così tanto che le fa male alla salute
oppure chiedendole dove sia la zip sotto la pancia per rimuovere le
pile scariche e inserire quelle nuove.
In effetti, ieri e laltro ieri Patata sembrava un morbido e
adorabile tappetone per scendere dal letto più che un cane e a un
certo punto, come si vede in una delle foto, non ha più avuto voglia
di camminare e si è tuffata di testa nellerba alta rimanendo
immobile come una stola di pelliccia! E' davvero un fumetto!
Ma è un amore di tenerezza e sinmpatia e siamo sicuri che quando
prenderà confidenza si muoverà di più e comunicherà di più. Del
resto con la figlia di Nicoletta va già al guinzaglio senza
problemi e
le ha già dato un bacino!
Grazie a Irene, la sua mamma morale, allEnpa tutta, a Carla
Rocchi, la sua instancabile Presidente, al comune di Castrovillari,
grazie a Giuseppe, il mitico staffettista, a Valeria, Enrico e
soprattutto grazie alla splendida NICOLETTA E A TUTTA LA SUA
FAMIGLIA! Che bello sapere che ci sono ancora persone così!

It's ridiculous to approve the buyout just a year ago, and now force the buyer to sell after getting the money. Only two of Nexperia executive management team are Chinese, the rest are Americans, Canadians and Europeans. The buyer has rescued an investment-starved company from collapse, repaid taxpayer loans, secured jobs, wages, bonuses and pensions for some 500 workers, and agreed to spend more than £80 million on equipment upgrades since early 2021. The seller acknowledged that selling the business was the only viable solution.
This forced divestment after the fact is utterly unfair.
edition.cnn.com/2022/11/17/tech/uk-blocks-chinese-takeove...
UK orders Chinese-owned company to sell Britain’s biggest chipmaker
Hong Kong CNN Business — The UK government has ordered a Chinese-owned company to unwind its takeover of Britain’s biggest chipmaker, citing national security concerns.
Nexperia, a Dutch subsidiary of Shanghai-listed semiconductor maker Wingtech, was told to sell “at least 86%” of its stake in Newport Wafer Fab by UK Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy Grant Shapps, more than a year after taking control of the factory.
Shapps said in a statement that he was concerned that the company could start working on more advanced so-called “compound” semiconductors at the Newport site and about “the potential for those activities to undermine UK capabilities.”
Shapps also cited the location of the factory, which is part of an industrial cluster of highly specialized tech firms in Newport, a city in south Wales. “The links between the site and the cluster may prevent the cluster being engaged in future projects relevant to national security,” the government said.
The UK move illustrates growing concern in the West over Chinese links to critical technologies and infrastructure. Last week, the German government blocked the sale of a semiconductor factory to a Chinese-owned tech firm, citing national security concerns. The United States in August ordered two of its top chipmakers, Nvidia (NVDA) and AMD (AMD), to halt exports of certain high performance chips to China.
Nexperia said in a statement Wednesday that it was “shocked” by the decision and would appeal. It cited “two previous security reviews” that it said had already cleared the acquisition.
“Nexperia does not accept the potential national security concerns raised,” it said. “The far-reaching remedies which Nexperia offered to fully address the government’s concerns have been entirely ignored.”
The company added that it had offered “not to conduct” the “activities of potential concern, and to provide the UK government with direct control and participation in the management of Newport.”
Nexperia’s UK manager, Toni Versluijs, said the company would fight to overturn the order, suggesting that it could put more than 500 jobs at risk.
“This decision sends a clear signal that the UK is closed for business,” he added.
Newport Wafer bills itself as the UK’s largest semiconductor facility, making more than 35,000 wafer starts a month. The factory has a background in supplying components to automotive and medical companies, according to Nexperia.
Nexperia is a semiconductor manufacturer based in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. It obtained full ownership of the Newport site in July 2021, after previously working with its former owners as a customer and as its second largest shareholder.
“We rescued an investment-starved company from collapse,” it said. “Those who sold the business to us agreed that it was the only viable solution, and the deal was publicly welcomed by the Welsh government.”
While terms of the deal were not disclosed, the transaction was valued at £63 million (approximately $75 million), according to a UK parliament report.

UK says it wants to work with China. Really?
The UK government on Wednesday ordered a Chinese-owned company to divest most of its stake in the United Kingdom's biggest semiconductor maker.
This is not only a heavy blow to a legally operating Chinese company, but also a fresh reminder of the harsh wintry global climate for Chinese companies' overseas operations.
The order has the effect of requiring Nexperia BV to sell at least 86 percent of its stake in Nexperia Newport Limited, formerly Newport Wafer Fab, within a specified period and by following a specified process, the UK Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy said in a statement.
The Netherlands-based Nexperia, which is owned by Chinese smartphone maker Wingtech, acquired an additional 86 percent of the share capital of Newport Wafer Fab on July 5 last year, taking its shareholding to 100 percent, which constituted a trigger event under the UK's National Security and Investment Act, which came into force on Wednesday.
The divestment order, which Nexperia has vowed to appeal, was allegedly based on what British Business Secretary Grant Shapps called a "detailed national security assessment". That assessment, like the UK's 2020 ban on Chinese telecommunications company Huawei's involvement in the country's 5G broadband network, concluded that activities at the site had the potential "to undermine UK capabilities" and prevent UK technological expertise and know-how with links to the site being engaged in future projects relevant to national security.
As in many other similar cases targeting technology-related Chinese investments in Western countries, the "national security" argument was based almost entirely on an assumption of guilt. Of course this is not fair to any company that is operating in strict accordance with law. But what is happening to Chinese overseas investment lately in Western countries has clearly deviated far from the set rules and norms of normally functioning market economies.
The divestment order for Nexperia is only one more footnote to the changing global geopolitical climate that appears to be increasingly unwelcoming of Chinese investment, particularly in technology companies. Nexperia is only the latest victim of the United States-led Western initiative to frustrate, if not throttle, Chinese pursuit of technological advancement, and it won't be the last. The US Commerce Department is reportedly set to put more Chinese technology companies on its Entity List. US allies are following its lead with stricter "national security "scrutiny of Chinese investments and acquisitions.
As is true in the Nexperia case, where a Chinese-owned company based in the Netherlands had increased its stakes in a UK company, most of today's cutting-edge technologies and their application are the fruits of global expertise and cooperation, and depend on them. The Western countries' initiative to slam their doors shut to Chinese companies will inevitably hurt themselves as it will serve to restrict their access to China's massive market, which has proven to be instrumental to the popularization and rapid progress of many applied technologies.
Hyping up disinformation about a security threat and then using it to hobble Chinese companies has become a go-to tool of the US, as a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman said. The UK should act responsibly

UK forces Chinese-owned company to offload Newport Wafer Fab
Owner 'shocked' to find itself in Dutch over national security concerns, promises to appeal
The UK's secretary of state for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy has ordered that the Chinese owner of the Newport Wafer Fab sell off its interest in the facility on grounds of national security.
Secretary Grant Shapps on Wednesday published an order [PDF] in which he explained ownership of the facility represents a national security risk as:
i. technology and know-how that could result from a potential reintroduction of compound semiconductor activities at the Newport site, and the potential for those activities to undermine UK capabilities; and ii. the location of the site could facilitate access to technological expertise and know-how in the South Wales Cluster (“the Cluster”), and the links between the site and the Cluster may prevent the Cluster being engaged in future projects relevant to national security.
The Newport Wafer Fab is the UK's largest chipmaking facility. In July 2021 it was sold for £63 million ($111,500,000) to Dutch company Nexperia, which itself became a subsidiary of Chinese outfit Wingtech Technology in 2018.
News of the sale to Nexperia saw then-prime minister Boris Johnson promise to a conduct a national security investigation into the takeover. That probe led to a damning report titled "Sovereignty for sale: follow-up to the acquisition of Newport Wafer Fab" and allegations that the probe ordered by Johnson had amounted to nothing. A full assessment under the National Security and Investment Act was then instigated, with the result that Shapps has now ordered Nexperia to sell at least 86 percent of the Newport facility.
Nexperia has published a statement condemning the decision.
"Nexperia, headquartered in The Netherlands, is shocked by the UK Government's decision to order the divestment of 86% of its semiconductor wafer factory in South Wales … despite the acquisition being cleared by two previous security reviews," the statement opens, before stating the company "does not accept the national security concerns raised."
"The far-reaching remedies which Nexperia offered to fully address the Government's concerns have been entirely ignored," the statement adds.
"The UK Government chose not to enter into a meaningful dialogue with Nexperia or even visit the Newport site," the document continues. "More than 500 employees in Newport also raised their own significant concerns about such a divestment – the Government has chosen not to listen to them and instead taken this decision which puts the livelihoods of them and their families, as well as more than £100m of taxpayers' money, completely unnecessarily at risk."
"Nexperia will now challenge the order and will do everything possible to keep the factory and protect its employees in South Wales."
The statement asserts that Nexperia "proposed far-reaching remedies to BEIS's Investment Security Unit that fully address even these potential concerns." Among those remedies was a pledge "not to conduct the compound semiconductor activities of potential concern and to provide the UK Government with direct control and participation in the management of Newport."
Nexperia says "no dialogue" took place between the Government and Nexperia on these proposals and that none of the three responsible secretaries of state who had power to decide the matter responded to Nexperia's requests for dialogue.
"We rescued an investment-starved company from collapse," said Nexperia's UK Country Manager, Toni Versluijs. "We have repaid taxpayer loans, secured jobs, wages, bonuses and pensions, and agreed to spend more than £80 million on equipment upgrades since early 2021. Those who sold the business to us agreed that it was the only viable solution." (Emphasis added)
Versluijs vowed to appeal the decision.
The decision was made after the conclusion of a G20 summit at which a hoped-for meeting between UK prime minister Rishi Sunak and Chinese president Xi Jinping was cancelled after "scheduling issues". Sunak was called into impromptu meetings with European colleagues to discuss an explosion of Russian ordnance in Poland, so the scheduling explanation is plausible.
The UK recently ordered local telcos to remove Huawei kit from their 5G networks, and blocked the sale of chip design firm Pulsic Limited to Chinese buyers – indicators of London's keenness to keep local tech out of Beijing's hands. ®

Microchip expanded its instrumentation amplifier portfolio with the new zero-drift MCP6N16. This self-correcting architecture maximizes DC performance by enabling ultra-low offset, low-offset drift, and superior common-mode and power-supply rejection, while eliminating the adverse effects of 1/f noise. The result is very high accuracy across both time and temperature. For more info, visit www.microchip.com/get/PB60
