Maxi Mounds Stripping
In my work I happen frequently enough to interface with a particular category of people that is divided into two subcategories: one of the useless (because they simply ignorant of the matter that should be addressed) and that of those who do harm (ignorant, but not aware of it, the matter that should be addressed).
Unfortunately these are the most dangerous ones. In this Monday
spent in Rome I had to do with a series of specimens belonging to this second subset.
Can I share the inflexibility that is required by certain procedures and by various laws, but I can not accept and can not tolerate the rigidity on the part of incompetent people, perched on the unjustifiable and indefensible positions, which are outside their competence and their self-serving position domain (I dare not ask granted on the basis of merit as a criterion) stand as the basis for the bearers of absolute truth.
The arrogance of those who does not know the regulations, while those who are not able to properly articulate a sentence in Italian follow a complement to a verb and a subject with arrogance of those who claim to judge arbitrarily choosing the wrong instruments, wrong mode, reasons for inconsistent and not congruent with the tone of the situation suggests, this is not acceptable.
do not work is because, as in all things, and for some jobs in particular, respect, responsibility, humility to give someone standing in front of their views (especially when it might be an opportunity to approaching the subject for which he paid handsomely though not even remotely idea of \u200b\u200bthe foundations) and the awareness to operate with common sense are essential aspects. Or maybe I just think these things important, especially as today when I got up 5 to return to the home at 22 past.
Unfortunately, the stupidity, arrogance and disarming the staggering incompetence of a certain class, I can not define "manager" because it is in error with a modicum of power in the hands (and remains blinded), despite being worth - morally and professionally - as the two of spades when the trump is hearts, ultimately have an impact on businesses and the public interest of citizens.
But this is Italy.
The group of useless officials today made me lose all confidence in the development of our country, whatever they say our politicians in the forthcoming election campaign, I can only hope the worst things. To begin with, they will find someone who li cacci fuori a calci nel culo dagli uffici e dagli incarichi per i quali in una giornata come oggi, mandando a monte senza motivo il lavoro di tante persone oneste, guadagnano senz'altro quanto il sottoscritto in un mese.
Vergogna.

Krakow Prices Beer 2009
Matematica e letteratura hanno incrociato il cammino troppe volte perché si tratti soltanto di incontri casuali. Se è vero che entrambe sono attività di "finzione" e consistono principalmente nel'invenzione di mondi possibili, non deve stupire questo continuo rispecchiamento.
Pubblico oggi il primo di una piccola serie di racconti "matematici". Si tratta di racconti finiti, come in questo caso, o di brevi estratti da testi più lunghi.
Fatemi sapere che ne pensate.
Continuity of Parks (Julio Cortázar)
He had begun reading the novel a few days before. Left him to urgent business, he returned by train to open as he returned to the farm, slowly let himself be of interest to the plot, the character design. That night, after writing a letter to his attorney and discussing a matter with the factor of sharecropping, he returned to the book in the tranquility of the study that opened the park of oak. Lying in the favorite chair with your back to the door that would have bothered as an irritating intrusion possibilities, let your left hand caress repeatedly the green velvet and si mise a leggere gli ultimi capitoli. La sua memoria riteneva senza sforzo il nome e le immagini dei protagonisti; l'illusione romanzesca lo conquistò quasi subito. Godeva del piacere quasi perverso di staccarsi di riga in riga da ciò che lo attorniava, e di sentire al tempo stesso che la testa riposava comodamente sul velluto dell’alto schienale, che le sigarette erano sempre a portata di mano, che al dì là delle vetrate danzava l'aria del crepuscolo sotto i roveri. Di parola in parola, assorto nel sordido dilemma degli eroi, lasciandosi andare verso le immagini che si componevano e acquistavano colore e movimento, fu testimone dell'ultimo incontro nella capanna sul monte. Prima entrava la donna, guardinga; adesso arrivava l'amante, my face hurt by lashes of a branch. Admirably she dabbed the blood with her kisses, caresses, but he refused, he had not come to repeat the ceremonies of a secret passion, protected by a world of dry leaves and furtive paths. The dagger is warmed against her bosom, and crouched under pulsed freedom. A dialogue flowed anxious for pages like a stream of snakes, and felt that everything was decided a long time. Even those caresses which enveloped the body of the lover as if to restrain and dissuade him abominably drew the figure of another body that had to be destroyed. Nothing had been forgotten: alibis, circumstances, errors. From that hour, each moment was carefully determined its use. The list was interrupted when two ruthless to allow a hand caressing his cheek. He was beginning to get dark.
Without even looking over, tied closely to the task that awaited them, they parted at the door of the hut. She was to continue the path that was heading north. On the opposite path he turned for a moment to see her running with her hair down. He ran too, providing protection against the trees and hedges as long distinguished in the haze of mauve dusk the driveway leading to the house. The dogs were not barking, and barking. The factor should not be there at that hour, and was not there. Go up the three steps of the porch and went inside. From the blood that was galloping in his ears he could hear the woman's words: the first a blue room, then a gallery, a staircase with carpet. Upstairs, two doors. No one in the first room, no one in the second. The drawing-room door, and then the dagger in his hand, the light from the windows, the high back of a chair of green velvet, the head of a man in the chair reading a novel.

Building Rabbit Cages
(from Computer Point 8 / 02/2008, LINK )
Rome - often open gashes sull'inabilità of the legislature to keep up with society and sometimes it happens that this failure is entirely on the public glare. It happens today with the fee for copying hard drives subject to seizure, a charge that now is the proof, in some cases can by itself remove the right of defense in a criminal case.
Yesterday morning, the lawyer defending the accused in an investigation that led to the seizure of the computer of his client went to a compartment of the Postal Police to obtain a certified copy of the hard disk contained in that computer. It is a fundamental right Defense: In order to verify the integrity of the data, retrieve information relevant to their work, analyzing the bases on which some claim may emerge during the procedure. This is a key element of that is to establish a defensive strategy, which is relevant in any context, especially if of a criminal nature. But that copy is so important for the accused has not been done. The reason? It cost tens of thousands of euro.

Already, the certified copy of the hard disk for the exercise of the right to defense is not furnished office. It is produced only on request and at very high price. For the record, if you want to get a copy of the disco da 120 gigabyte , come accaduto ieri, occorre sganciare circa 40mila euro . I pagherò non sono accettati, ci vogliono mazzi di marche da bollo. Ciascun CD-R su cui i dati vengono riprodotti costa all'imputato esattamente 258 euro virgola 23. Fatta qualche moltiplicazione per il conteggio preventivo dei diritti, gli euro sono calcolati, il diritto è negato.
A procurare questa lesione non è una calcolatrice truccata: lo stabilisce nientemeno che il Testo Unico sulle spese di Giustizia ( LINK ) nei cui meandri si cancella il diritto alla difesa. Come si può facilmente verificare, se la certified reproduction costs less than 5 € for a 90-minute tape, in case of a digital copy for each compact disc "(as assessed in 640 megs if we're talking about), the fee is € 258-odd.
Article 269 does not mention payment terms, or loans for those who need to buy a mountain of stamps: so coldly operation requires quantum to be paid for the copy. It should be paid immediately, money in hand. This means that the defense of the national average income that remains is rather appealing to the magistrate at a later time, request the submission of a report on behalf of the court, but the court has no obligation to accept such a request, nor it is said that the expertise is what defense accord with the same procedural issues, organizational or operational, which may have nothing to do with guilt or otherwise of the accused but which may affect the defensive strategies. This means that we can expect that in court the only skill that will be heard will be that made by the prosecution.
Not only that, as mentioned, is very easy to think that hard drives can also contain material needed for the group work of the subject, not to mention all the personal contents of those where the defendant may not have copies contained perhaps completely unrelated to the proceedings which gave rise il sequestro ma ugualmente resi indisponibili. Sì, è vero, il materiale successivamente viene riconsegnato all'accusato. Ma quando? In genere passano circa 7 anni dal momento del sequestro. E il lavoro di quella persona? I suoi affetti? Tutto passa in secondo piano, nulla di quell'hard disk può essere rilasciato senza il pagamento di una somma stratosferica.
È naturalmente impervio volersi arrampicare su una tesi colpevolista, è difficile credere che chi ha consentito che una norma del genere venisse approvata abbia di proposito voluto cancellare i diritti essenziali dei cittadini, o almeno di quelli meno opulenti. Il che ci lascia con una sola possibilità, ovvero che chi lo ha fatto, the Legislature, once again acted unconsciousness of what and how they work today and what technologies are central to all our lives.
Who This rate has done since it lacks jurisdiction to decide. And yesterday, the report was written that the defense give up a copy. " are tripping prepared against citizens by Legislator willfully ignorant, and readers of this magazine know better than anyone else. Yet it does not always this way. When Point Computer pulled out in recent months the case of "tax on the blog, someone will remember, three days after the text had already been modified. It was not a case: all the media have drawn from that article on the front page to bring the measure, the public was made aware of the names and faces of politicians. And then only the promise of a course correction could "save" the situation, a correction is not too difficult especially as the measure was still in progress. But now? But in a case like this? Who will take responsibility for a mistake so gross in the Consolidated, a mistake that harms a citizen right now but who knows how many others have already damaged? Who will take the political responsibility to an ever so glaring incompetence?
's not all, alas. The other problem with which Italians have to face is that many of these laws were inoculated within schifezzuole laws are difficult to read, scattered rain in all laws that might deal with, apparently, unless technology and its consequences. Just as in the Consolidation Act. This makes difficult any reform without a painstaking job of detecting flaws. Not surprisingly, we are in the midst of the digital revolution, the Internet is used by the masses of Italians for many years, and in that time the unbearable lightness of the legislator was clearly evident with majorities and coalitions of all colors, repeating seamless of constant, with alarming frequency the inability to cope with the changing world and the needs of Italians who want to ride the change triggered by the information society.
The solution? Resort to the hard disk of a time. After all 4 gig would cost just over € 1600.
