E71 Front Camera Apps

by LODGE No V

Dear friends,
numerous and challenging topics of discussion were the focus of political and administrative life of our city in recent months.

*****************************************

Among all, of course, the story A2A.

The choice of the mayor to revoke the former directors has been a fundamental fact that is grafted onto a complex situation.
Complex because the company after the merger of AEM and ASM denotes elements of concern to the community of Brescia, as well as the Joint Action Brescia: there is indeed a progressive peripheralization of our city, to the benefit of Milan, in fact true decision-making center, well beyond initial forecasts. In this context, the management had contributed to the positive development and success of ASM has suffered marginalization at the same time the induced employment and suppliers went impoverishing. In addition, the overall performance of A2A have not proved particularly bright, so that to ensure the same dividend to shareholders last year we had to go to a dangerous extent, and certainly not far-sighted, which draw on reserves.

investigate the causes of this situation leads to honestly admit that vi furono errori tanto nella fase pre-fusione quanto in quella successiva ad essa, sia perché profili potenzialmente problematici furono sottovalutati, sia per l’assenza di capacità sufficienti a garantire l’attuazione di accordi che erano stati premessa della fusione, sia anche per scelte non sempre azzeccate in ordine ai componenti dei diversi organi societari.

Tuttavia il nuovo Sindaco – va detto con chiarezza –, nonostante le sollecitazioni politiche e aziendali, non ha fatto in concreto alcunché per invertire questa tendenza e per porre le basi di un recupero: anzi con la propria inerzia ha sicuramente agevolato che la situazione si incancrenisse. Anche nella dialettica bresciano-milanese, dopo un’iniziale silenzio, è seguita un’apertura di credito nei confronti dell’ing. Capra, poi evoluta nello sposare le avverse ragioni dell’ing. Zuccoli.

La revoca da parte del socio pubblico – atto che per una società quotata ha costituito un precedente sul piano nazionale – non è peraltro stata determinata (e motivata) dal riconoscimento della gravità della situazione, ma si è basata sull’asserita assenza di legame fiduciario con gli amministratori nominati dal sindaco Corsini, nonostante questi ultimi avessero diligentemente assecondato – nell’unica occasione in cui ne furono richiesti – la volontà del Sindaco Paroli di bloccare il piano di riorganizzazione societaria.
La revoca ha così costituito l’occasione per una lottizzazione partitica bella e buona. Certo, anche in passato le scelte degli amministratori erano state condotte tenendo presente, accanto alla competenza, anche l’intesa politica, ma in questo caso la seconda ha nettamente sopravanzato la prima.
Come altrimenti spiegare la sostituzione di un apprezzato manager come l’ing. Capra con Tarantini, numero uno della Compagnia delle Opera a Brescia, o la sostituzione di storici amministratori come gli ex presidenti del Cda (Rampinelli) e del Collegio Sindacale di ASM (Rizzardi) con il padre del deputato leghista Caparini o con il presidente in carica della Provincia Cavalli, o ancora che dei rappresentanti bresciani nel Consiglio di Gestione l’unico confermato, oltre al direttore generale, sia quel Cocchi che alle ultime elezioni è stato il candidato sindaco (sconfitto) di PdL e Lega al Comune di Niardo?
Ed è paradossale che i due nominativi del Consiglio di Sorveglianza dotati dei requisiti di revisore contabile siano stati pescati nei posti a disposizione per le minoranze PD di Brescia e Milano!

La scelta della revoca è stata stigmatizzata dal PD (allego al riguardo una mia lettera al direttore del Giornale di Brescia) che – oltre a denunciarne gravità e unicità – ha più volte stimolato il Sindaco e la maggioranza, senza tuttavia ricevere risposta, sul mandato e sugli obiettivi che si intendevano affidare ai nuovi amministratori.
For this group as we Autoconvocate Council Chamber City Council to discuss a motion on the issue, which is on the agenda of the next board meeting.

*************************************

Great emphasis has been on local media discussion the new police regulations drawn up by Deputy Mayor Urban.

addition to the emphasis of the presenters, who spoke of the regulation as the instrument to implement the new concept of urban safety contained in the security package, the visibility of this topic has been remarkable because of the regulatory provisions for certain ways unfair to other apodictic, bizarre for others. In addition to criticism
appeared impossible to ensure effective implementation of the Regulation, since the proliferation of cases of prohibited and correlative sanctions would have taken control and would require a very costly and demanding in terms of resources, human and otherwise.
also bans most critical and which gave rise to the edge applications at issue were presented as essentially harmless to the families 'normal', meaning that differential treatment to the recipients, with a clear will discriminate against immigrants.

Concerns associated with this policy approach of security in the city remain, especially in light of the slogans and proclamations that are used.
However, on the merits of regulatory provisions, the Democratic Party, which in Safety Commission is represented by Del Bono, Bragaglia and myself scored a clear success. A detailed examination of the text, with the technique of screwdriver fioroniana memory, allowed to eliminate, or make reasonable and less discretionary, a series of disposition, otherwise inaccoglibili.
In more than a dozen key points, especially that related to the green areas and the historic center, there have been substantial changes (which do account in the attached file). There
to recognize that all this was made possible by an attitude of the majority, and in particular the deputy mayor, strongly marked by dialogue and confrontation.
not know if this was due to a sincere desire to open up or the awareness of the serious shortcomings in the regulation - in its first version - presented, but there is no doubt that the attitude shown dedicated and in-depth (ten sessions of the Commission in 'period of three months) was certainly different from what the council has decided to take in the other cases (Brixia Development and General Stores, which later). How do we constructively exploited
PD questo spazio per apportare le nostre idee e per contribuire al deciso rinnovamento e conseguente miglioramento di un testo che attiene all’ordinata convivenza e che quindi ha influenza su tutta la cittadinanza.

Di qui il senso dell’astensione del PD sulla delibera di modifica al vigente regolamento di Polizia urbana: il contenuto, come detto, ha assunto fattezze ben diverse dal tenore iniziale, ma permangono criticità sulle prassi applicative che verranno introdotte, oltre che su alcuni punti specifici.
Mi riferisco in particolare al fatto che, nonostante un mio emendamento che è stato respinto, i divieti previsti per i parchi e le aiuole siano estesi a tutte le aree verdi comprese nel Comune (quindi anche il Parco delle Colline), It equally well in treating different objective situations.

******************************************

A very different example to deal with administrative matters instead came from the Mayor and the Councillor for Urban Planning, in relation to the theme of former General Stores.

This vast area south of the city, long awaiting redevelopment, was the subject of a separate Implementation Plan, adopted by the City Council during the previous term administration: that the plan called for implementation - on the basis of the intentions of the administration Palazzo Broletto - della nuova sede unica della Provincia, accanto a interventi di edilizia di mercato e convenzionata, nonché alla realizzazione di uno spazio giovani nelle ex Casere.

Si trattava di un piano certamente migliorabile, e come tale foriero di alcune criticità, ma nessuno poteva immaginare che, insediatasi la nuova Giunta, il piano rimanesse fermo per più di un anno (è agli atti una interrogazione del PD che chiedeva conto di questo ritardo), dopodiché tornasse di punto in bianco alla ribalta.
Nessuno però avrebbe ulteriormente immaginato che, venuta meno l’intenzione della Provincia – alla luce di controversie giudiziarie e di difficoltà economico-finanziarie – di realizzare la nuova sede unica, The Mayor announced its intention to implement the single seat in the place of the City.

A choice that lends itself to numerous and significant complaints. First

on methodology.
is not possible that a change of strategy of urban policy as relevant occur outside the context of appropriate planning tools. This is even more serious if one considers that the design of the single seat town was by no means covered the principles guiding the new council.

In terms of substance, then, the city of Brescia is not particularly issues related to the locations of its offices.
For the vast majority of cases these buildings owned by (Not rent), concerning the barycentric and however well served by public transport (and in advance from the subway).
also speak of a single seat out of place, since the mayor was quick to say that a number of offices would remain where they are now (those of Piazza and Loggia of Palazzo Broletto, the Queriniana, nursing homes, kindergartens to divisions ...): consequently the so-called single site would be limited to house the engineers and those of Via Marconi Republic square, and - perhaps - even those of the Municipal Police.
And, in addition to the theme of the fate of these spaces will be emptied, can not understand why when you already engage economically Today the town has several free buildings (Palazzo Maggi Gambara, the former buildings of the former Court and Court of Appeals and all other judicial offices moved to Palagiustizia), which could eventually be used for the purpose of keeping alive the Center Town.
Furthermore, in an attempt to sweeten the pill, the mayor defended the choice of the new headquarters at Magazzini Generali announcing that accessibility to the public would be guaranteed by Metro, but the metropolitan area of \u200b\u200bwhich we speak is not the line currently under construction but an extension from Lamarmora to the fair, now, is only a preliminary, not fully funded and beyond to come.

There is a basic misunderstanding that underlies the whole story: Mayor claims that the implementation of the new headquarters would be at no cost. But, beyond the resources for the move and new furnishings that are cited, it is not true that the operation would be at no cost, because the decision to address the City Council voted to grant new building rights to private, remove the building Convention, and the young at Casere space and commits the City to find additional resources up to a total of 49 million €.

short, especially on the method and have seen us and see us firmly opposed to a work-consuming, unnecessary and completely improvised, which does not respond to any public purpose, but only while the legitimate interests of individuals who, without the seat of the Province, were likely to see the intervention stopped the total area of \u200b\u200bthe Magazzini Generali.
In fact, instead of an economy that serves the strategic choices of the policy, a policy that is subservient to private economic interests.

The next City Council will be held tomorrow - Monday, 29.

A warm greeting.

Smelly Urine After Intercourse Std

seekers Worlds


In questi giorni, insieme ad un gruppo di amici (Christower Dae, Fiona Saiman e Neve Laville) appassionati fotografi di Second Life, abbiamo fondato il gruppo Worlds Hunter. L'idea è nata dalla constatazione che la rapida evoluzione di Second Life, la nascita e la scomparsa caotica di land, sta lasciando dei vuoti incolmabili, dovuti alla cancellazione di molte tra le storiche location di questo mondo virtuale.

Per mantenere traccia delle migliori realizzazioni di Second Life nasce quindi il progetto "Worlds Hunter - I cercatori di Mondi", come l'abbiamo chiamato in termini immaginifici. Lo scopo è quello di selezionare e catalogare le immagini delle più belle location di SL, sia per farle conoscere, sia per mantenerne traccia nel caso queste land vadano perse. La scomparsa di magnifiche realizzazioni, come ad esempio Svarga, non deve privarci, perlomeno, delle immagini che possiamo conservare (a proposito, chi avesse foto di Svarga, e volesse share, please contact us). Great investment of time and professionalism of the builders, some of the highest quality, can not disappear without a trace. This then

the project.

I hope that the group of members from spreading and be able to pick the best images of SL. All material will be posted on Flickr, in a specially formed group (Worlds Hunter). Images must be screened before publishing, then please reach agreement with the owner of the group selection.

I invite you to collaborate on this project on time and in the manner that everyone will want. There is no limit of time or effort. It is a work in progress, a work that starts now but will develop over time. I hope that the idea is welcomed, and with a large membership.

Hello everyone.

Polaris Indy Xtra 10 Spring Adjuster Blocks

Our friend Avatar


Another great event organized by his friend Zygmunt Ballinger Brain 2 Brain, this time with Jeffrey Ventrella on Orange Island.

There has been talk of virtual worlds, the function of the Avatar and the possible future, building on existing potential, exploit more of its characteristics to enable a more effective form of virtual communication.

In the first part of the evening you have listened to the interesting observations of Jeffrey, urged by Zygmunt on existing communication skills of the Avatar, as a form of representation of human forms of expression, and those that will be more and more new forms of expression representative of the actual capacity of the people behind the figure of ' Avatar.

Several considerations and assumptions for developing this type of interface, which should, in the very near future, improve their technical capabilities to better express the true will of the operator.

The discussion then moved to the possibilities of interaction of the Avatar, the second of these, our alter ego first called for the development, created in different environments with Virtual Worlds.

It took considerable effort to return from the future to the present situation, in which we meet again in difficulties imposed by the limits of today's interface.

However, it was drawn, from considerations of Jeffrey and the other speakers, a very credible line of evolution for the future development of the current Virtual Worlds.
