Italy Releases Terrorist of Achille Lauro Hijacking
2008-07-08 12:36:00 Yes, it’s been twenty years, so Ibrahim Fatayer Abdelatif, now 43, has been released from an Italian jail. A cruise ship, the Achille Lauro, was hijacked by four armed thugs, and to prove they were mean and meant their threats, they killed a defenseless elderly man in a wheelchair, Leon Klinghoffer, dumping his body over the ...
Italy Proposes Fines For Muslims Praying In Streets
2008-07-07 23:16:00 Milan, 7 July (AKI) - The President of the northern Italian city of Milan, Filippo Penati, has triggered widespread debate with a controversial proposal to fine Muslims who pray on the streets outside the city's mosque.According to authorities, the number of people praying on the sidewalk creates traffic and obstacles for pedestrians in the area surrounding the Viale Jenner mosque, a converted garage."Article 190 of the law regarding the obstruction of streets should be applied immediately," said Penati."I do not know or understand why the law has not been applied before," he said."The municipality of Milan should apply the law and fine transgressors, not to limit their freedom of worship, which should be guaranteed for all, but prayer carried out on the sidewalk is forbidden by the laws of our country."The Viale Jenner mosque, or cultural Islamic centre, can only hold 4,000 faithful. Those who cannot fit inside bring their Islamic prayer mat and lay it on the street outside the mo...

Italy - The Scouts
2008-06-29 01:53:00 Posn - East Coast Sardegna - 40 30 N / 10 38 EThe institution of Scouts completed a hundred years of its existence in theyear 2007 and everyone other then the Indian govt seems to have issued reamsof stamps to commemorate the occasion. Pictured above is one of the sheetsreleased by the Italians for the occasion. I am putting this here simplybecause so many people have been asking for Scouts stamps on the internetbulletin boards, that I am sure that I am missing out on their significance.I actually was in the scouts. I distinctly remember wearing my brothershand-me-downs to the parades. The only thing I took to those parades, whichwas my own, was this round ferrule type thing through which we knot thescarf and a fierce will not to parade. And that is what we did in the scouts, I swear. We paraded, saluted thatthree fingered salute and read some rules off some blue book. Which wasimmediately taken back as soon as the parade was finished. Of course the stamps prove that some scouts pla...

DISASTRO!
2008-06-09 23:06:00 OLANDA ITALIA3 - 0Solo una parola : DISASTRO.Così si può riassumere la prima partita degli azzurri agli europei di Svizzera e Austria.Squadra scoraggiata, disordinata, con una difesa pressochè ridicola e una fase offensiva latente: questa è stata la prima Italia dell'Euro 2008.Donadoni mette in campo una squadra che dovrebbe badare più a difendersi, con il solo Toni di punta, e con Camoranesi e Di Natale di supporto.Il primo tempo (a detta di molti uno dei peggiori della storia) vede l'Olanda andare in vantaggio con un erroraccio della terna arbitrale. Il gol di Van Nistelrooy sarebbe viziato da fuorigioco, in quanto Panucci esce dal campo involontariamente, dopo esser stato colpito da Buffon.Ma le recriminazioni trovano il tempo che trovano; infatti, dopo soli 6 minuti, un perfetto contropiede, dopo un calcio d'angolo degli azzurri, trova impreparata la difesa, e porta in gol Snejder. Olanda-Italia, 2-0.Nel secondo tempo ci si aspetta un Italia più arrembante...MA DOVE? Donado...

Italy-Netherlands match expected to draw interest
2008-06-09 14:41:00 World champion Italy and 2006 World Cup runner-up France launch their European Championship quests today when they play the Netherlands and Romania, respectively. The Italians and the Dutch, two of the top teams in the 16-nation tournament being jointly staged by Austria and Switzerland, should provide one of the event's early highlights. Both are attack-minded teams and both feature some of soccer's premier players. The Dutch are relying on Ruud Van Nistelrooy to provide the goals — supported by the likes of Robin Van Persie, Wesley Sneijder and Dirk Kuyt — and the Real Madrid player said he likes his team's options."In terms of attacking tactics, we are capable of putting some great moves together," Van Nistelrooy said.While realizing the Dutch offensive prowess, the Italians are hoping to take advantage of their perceived defensive shortcomings."The Netherlands are a very strong team with good ball possession and top-level forwards," defender Christian Panucci said...

EURO 2008: Holland vs Italy
2008-06-09 12:25:00 It is time to register the first draw at EURO 2008 as two football giants meet each other tonight hoping to stay in contention after this one and find an easy exit of the group without unnecessary confrontation. Bet365 fairly prices the draw at 2/1 (3.00) and I will go for it as having no idea how one of the teams will manage to score one more.Holland have the talent, the players and the experience to bring the European title back after a long period of time. The bad news are that they have opponents such as France and the world champion Italy early in the group and this will make team's life a nightmare if they don't prove to be competitive to those giants. And sometimes it can be a tough task to complete, specially when you miss for the opening of this group action players such as Robben, Babel, Melchiot and van Persie. On the other hand Italy demonstrated they are a different team now leaving lots of space for the opponent and a chance for playing some football but not a boring...

Sardinian sightseeing by the sea
2008-06-09 00:00:00 For one of Europe's most amazing marine wonders, head to Sardinia's Grotta di Nettuno.The caves can be reached by boat or down a steep cliff-side staircase of 656 steps. From there, follow the natural entrance to a vast internal salt lake stretching 120 metres across.Continuous sea movements in the caves have formed mysterious chambers and caverns around the lake but the water feature itself is worth a look for the unusual columns rising out of it.In the 18th century the complex was discovered and used by local fishermen. It was also the home of the rare monk seal, now extinct.All visits to the Grotta are part of hourly tours lasting approximately 45 minutes. They include English and Italian commentary and occasionally French and German translation too.For other sightseeing ideas in Sardinia, pay a visit to Alghero's medieval walled centre and splash out on a horse-drawn carriage tour of its picturesque narrow streets.
Go to Naples for a 'pizza' the action
2008-06-09 00:00:00 Ditch Pizza Hut staples for a slice of the real deal in one of Naples' prestigious pizzerias.First stop should be Antica Pizzeria Brandi, the home of the Margherita since 1889. Now a little touristy, the restaurant still offers great pizzas as well as a huge variety of other Italian classics.Diners with an appetite for tradition should try Da Michele, often touted as the best in the city. Choice is restricted to pizza marinara, Margherita or the baked cheese calzone, but lack of range is more than offset by the finely tuned flavours.For the pizza of presidents, head to Di Matteo - the restaurant picked to serve Bill Clinton during a state visit.Perfect pizzas are matched by prime location on the main street of the old city and the menu also boasts a good selection of nibbles to sate hunger during the restaurant's busiest hours.As of this summer, Naples' famous Pizza Napolitana will be officially recognised by the European Union as a "regional speciality", much like Fren...

EURO 2008 diary - 7th June, Kick-Off
2008-06-07 19:00:00 With Euro 2008 only moments away, the temperature is cooling.Well, it is the Alps after all. Football tournaments in the summer conjure up t-shirts and sun cream as well beer and polyester souvenirs for me as a fan but I've just donned my third layer in Interlaken.I am residing in the heart of holiday Switzerland because Basel, the arrival point for so many, has not got a bed to spare for miles around. Unlike Germany in 2006, where you could always find a room at the last minute, Switzerland simply is not prepared for the influx of fans. Shame on you for missing such an Alpine cash-cow, Heidi.'Expect emotion' promised the organizers. Well I certainly have been through a bunch the past few days searching in increasing desperation, in neighbouring France and Germany as well, for a bed within 50 miles of the host city or less than a mountain hike to the nearest train station, and which costs less than a transatlantic flight.Last night I just gave up the ghost and hopped on a train t...

Torna il Matrix Azzurro
2008-06-06 17:40:00 Leggiucchiando su Gazzetta.it, trovo il Marco Nazionale che torna a parlare da azzurro!OBERWALTERSDORF (Austria), 6 giugno 2008 - A lui piace stare sulla lama del rasoio. La vita come sfida, contro tutto e tutti. Ama ricordarlo: "Da quando ero bambino, nella vita e nello sport ho dovuto scalare i pregiudizi (e le posizioni, ndr): ancora una volta dovrò dimostrarlo". Marco Materazzi varca la soglia di Casa Azzurri con aria di sfida. Nessun preconcetto. Sguardo turbato, le cose della vita le affronta così. E a tre giorni dalla partita contro l'Olanda, quando Donadoni deve risolvere il grande dubbio in difesa, analizza l'avversario: "Squadra difficile e ben organizzata. Dovremo correre. E penso a Van Nistelrooy, uno che in qualsiasi momento può fare del male. Non ci ho mai giocato contro, non ho avuto questa sfortuna". KENNEDY - Matrix gioca o no? Tutti se lo chiedono. Così come si domandano se la sua voglia matta è rimasta intatta. "Ho la stessa fame che mi ...

Zambrotta Returns to Italy
2008-06-01 15:04:00 There is no news about this in Barcelona site; but A C Milan has posted on their site that they have officially signed the player. Zambrotta was keen to move to Italy and there was more than usual interest when A C MIlan approached him. Barcelona might be taking their time to announce the signing as there is no positive news about Dani Alves signing. Now with Zambrotta leaving Barcelona may have to buy-out Alves from Sevilla. Zambrotta has been a great player for Barcelona scoring three goals from 80 odd games. But for me his best performance was in Champions League semi finals against Manchester United particularly against Ronaldo. It is rumoured that Barcelona has signed a three year deal in which Milan paid 8.5 million euros to Barcelona. The move to Milan effectively means Zambrotta will miss next season Champions League. Anyway wishing him all the best in his endeavour.But another rather strange rumour which is spreading is due to the apparent failure for Deco and Ronaldinho to...
