How Much Time Do I Need To Let My Eyebrows Grow

piccole curiosità #4

Not everyone knows that Cutro , a small town in the province of Crotone, every year from April 23 to May 1, as part of annual celebration dedicated to SS.Crocifisso May 3, it plays an important event ludico-culturale: il Torneo Internazionale di Scacchi, gioco antichissimo e nobile originatesi probabilmente in India o nell’antica Grecia ed importato in Italia dalle Crociate. Non a caso, però, questo piccolo paese diviene per una settimana circa la “città degli scacchi”. Ciò avviene per onorare e celebrare un “figlio” illustre, il più grande scacchista di tutti i tempi, Gian Leonardo di Bona, detto il Puttino, per la sua straordinaria bellezza e il suo portamento e in seguito insignito dal re Don Sebastiano del Portogallo dell’appellativo di “cavaliere errante: perché a guisa degli antichi cavalieri vinceva i suoi rivali ed i superbi umiliava”.
Other small curiosity to be reported, along with the tournament, is the "living chess game" on the board in the middle of the paved main square.

Broken Veins Baby Cheek

a presto...

After the "forced break" of diaframmicrotone , due to problems with the Internet and that led to a delay in publication of the post, this time I leave for summer break, after having shared together yet another post. To you these beautiful
Ireland photos, send me by my dear friend Federica, accompanied by the "Blessing of the Irish Traveller" (Irish blessing journey):

" May the road rise to meet you, May the wind be
always at your back, May
the sun shine warm upon your face, the rains fall and
soft upon your fields and, Until We Meet Again
,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
"

" is the way to your side,
the wind always at your back,
the sun shine warm upon your face, and the rain fall soft
in the fields around, and
until we meet again, may God protect you
in the palm of his hand.
"

BUONE VACANZE amici di diaframmi

The Left is sinking, Rivelli: PD is responsible for electoral

From
New South of April 15, 2008, edited by ERRECI :

subject - a result below expectations that obtained from the Rainbow Left in Basilicata and in the province of Matera. Disappointed Rosa Rivera, the party leaders in the Senate: "It 's a result well below expectations. Evidently the idea did not permit the Rainbow Left. The process was accelerated by the federation campaign, and traditionally our basic needs to think about good choices to make. The reality - adds Rivelli - is that the theory of the useful vote massacred there. The worst result is that the design of the PDL, endorsed by the PD to get rid of the Left by Parliament successful and this is the biggest responsibility of the Democratic Party with which the gap becomes wider for a possible dialogue in the future. "
The Left short disappears from the Italian political geography. and downsizing of many in his political clout in the province of Basilicata and Matera. A result, that these elections could weigh on the nearby provincial administrators.
