Stories and News No. 1225 A dream for the International Migrants Day … I would have a dream. I don't say I do , because I don't dare that much. But, being a dream, within the latter I can hope for incredible wonders and pursue absolute joy. You know what? I can't , but I must. We all do, more than ever these days. Therefore, I would like. I don't say I want , because there has never been arrogance in my intentions, despite the raving allusions of some. Only, simple necessity. Because I would like to be the vaccine you are waiting for. That is my dream. I would like to be the best answer to the disease that has poisoned the body and time, the mind and above all heart. I would like to be the solution to all your problems, to be honest, but it would be enough to dress up as a miracle drug even for a moment, one of those that save people and protect them in the days to come. So that people will not forget the importance of my presence in their life. In short, so that...

Stories and News No. 271 2010 was a bloody year for Haiti. In January there was the earthquake that killed more than 200 thousand people and at least one and a half million are homeless. In late October, about 100 to Port-au-Prince an epidemic of cholera began to spread in the country. The dead are now over a thousand. And if all this were not enough, in early November Thomas hurricane strikes Haiti, provoking also a flood. To make things even more dramatic, there are news of clashes between peacekeepers and residents. Apparently, most of them are convinced that cholera was imported by the soldiers of the United Nations, in this case from Nepal. What evidences there would be against them? First, the latrines of UN peacekeepers camp are near a river, whose waters would then spread the disease. Second, one UN peacekeeper has the cholera. The United Nations rejected the accusations. Apart from that, the clashes have provoked the death of two people, including a twenty years o...

Stories and News No. 242 Today I read two news that I have to put together. The first concerns the research of the Italian Association of Dietetics and Clinical Nutrition ( ADI ). They announced that actually in Italy there are 4 million and 700,000 obese people, a significant increasing number, particularly among men and especially children. To further sensitize the public, the association has organized a national event on Oct. 10 and 11 with an unmistakable name: Obesity Day 2010 . At the same time, I learn from various newspapers that, in view of the World Food Day on October 16 ( United Against Hunger ), Medecins sans frontieres (Doctors without borders) are launching a campaign entitled: Food is not enough . The famous humanitarian organization presents a very touching work in support of it: Starved for attention . Now, without considering the merits of the obesity problem, its causes and origins, aware that being overweight is also due to some disease, it is inevitable ...

Stories and News No. 235 When I read it I thought it was a joke and I still have doubts whether it is a true story or not. Apparently, the UN is about to appoint an ambassador for relations with the aliens. The person that seems to be chosen is the Malaysian astrophysicist Mazlan Binti Othman , director of the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs, UNOOSA . Well, it is a strange fact, but never as Berlusconi's reaction to the striking United Nations initiative. You may not believe it, but the Italian Prime Minister was surprised that he was still not consulted in the choice of the ambassador. You see, a man like him, is ever surrounded by people who are alien to all that, on the contrary, should be unquestionable: democracy, equality before the law and respect for human rights, just to name three at random. So, as soon as he read the news, Silvio has made a meeting and after a long huddle he proposed the perfect candidate for this delicate role. The latter is the worthy r...
