Can You Play Rayman Raving Without Balance

Block Student: What do we think the reform Gelmini

publish, on an exceptional basis, the official position of the lock on the Student DDL 1905, drawn up by Education Minister Gelmini, on the reform of the university. The work of Noah Mancini ( academic senator of the Second University of Rome Tor Vergata, who was elected Student Block ) is volutamen you technical and complex (the synthetic version will be published shortly on new issue of "Seaplane"), as it targets those students (and others) who have got fed up of empty slogans and demagoguery who feel these days, preferring to inform then with skill and spirit antipregiudiziale those who want to get some light on the so insulted, how little analyzed, Reform Gelmini. Happy reading!
........................................
The bill 1905 (the so-called "Reform Gelmini" on the University), already passed the Senate on July 29 this year, has increased recently, although amended, also in the House (November 30) , final approval will take place only after the ratification vote in the Senate. For the latter The session was currently scheduling to 9 December.

For this reason, and also by virtue of the protest organized by us, it is clear we can not avoid expressing an opinion of on the Reformation, which may well be regarded as an ambitious attempt to reinvigorate higher education and an effort to tackle head on the problems of the university. Who refuses to block it does, in fact, solely for partisan or ideological because it belongs to the most conservative sectors of the academic world.

First, it must be admitted that are certainly welcome the guiding principles of the Reformation.

In paragraph 4 of Article. 1 of the bill actually says: "The Ministry, in respect for freedom of education and the autonomy of universities, indicating the objectives and strategic directions for the system and its components and, through the National Agency for the Evaluation of the university system and Research (ANVUR) \u200b\u200bas within its competence, monitor and evaluate the results according to criteria of quality, transparency and promotion of merit, also based on the best common experience at international level, ensuring a distribution of public resources consistent with the objectives, guidelines and activities of each university, the principle of national cohesion, as well as assessment of the results. "

quality, transparency, promotion of the merit principle of national cohesion. Nothing to complain. Or rather, is a well-conducted and well-being merit-stop rain for funding.

It has to be careful. Given The guiding principles (transparency, meritocracy, cutting wastage, etc..) shows clearly the intention of the Government of 'dry' waste. It should also be acknowledged that the reform is done on a large scale, without account for the individual universities and their economic conditions in which they pay.

That is to say, ok, enough funding to rain ... but this is likely to make cuts with a hatchet.

Also, if we consider the meritocracy and the "virtuosity" of the University in a purely economy, which has become a main criterion for deciding on the allocation of funding, it is clear that private universities will start always enjoy an advantage over public ones, also payable on those cuts to the Ordinary Financing Fund (FFO) fixed in Law 133.

The main consequence, and which certainly deserves special attention by the entire university community, which is basically lying to have to keep on the basis of tuition fees, the public universities will find themselves forced (in many companies already happening) to find external lenders in the market.

then proceeding in an orderly fashion, what is most relevant for the purpose of drafting a policy on the bill, which is consistent and productive, the resolution of problems relating to two focal issues: the Reform of the Board of Directors (BoD) and the question of researchers
The reform of the Board

We said that at the time in which the public universities will effectively reduced by the portion of FFO required for their functioning (as provided by law 133 converted to 180), they will find themselves having to maintain primarily on fees paid by students. Alternative in this case become clear: 1) a significant increase in fees, but not sufficient, 2) the need of the University of addressing one or more external donors, largely private.

This in some cases it may also result in the entry of private players in the Board of Public Universities. SO that, according to paragraph g) of Article 2 of the Bill, composition will have a "maximum number of eleven members, including the rector and a member also of elective representation of students; nomination or selection of other components in accordance with procedures established by statute, including through public notices, including Italian and foreign personalities have proven competence in management and professional experience of high-level non-membership of at least forty percent of directors to the roles of the university after the three years preceding the appointment and for the duration of the assignment; election of the President of the Board of Directors among the members of the same ...».

In fact what is being expressed here is the willingness to let a person having experience in field management, but they are not at the same university within the administration. The measure is seen as a necessity, a key factor in a little 'as shares rose in Parliament. In addition, even if the document is not specified, it is assumed that these people demonstrated "competence in the management field" may be part of private limited companies or limited liability, thus creating a significant conflict of interest. At some point even a dirty word appears: at least. There refers precisely to that 40% of external personnel shall succeed to the Board. What do you mean 'at least'? Instead of being listed on the upper limit is listed on the limit.

The Board inter alia, under the reform, while maintaining all the existing expertise in the financial,

1) acquire the power to manage and programming to all staff, including teachers and researchers;

2) shall have the power to decide to activate or the abolition of the graduate course and locations;

3) decide the strategic direction of the University.

What is the risk?

The risk is that the increase of the functions of the Board, in anticipation of an increasing input of private lenders in large part in the public university system, may well constitute a threat to 'independence and autonomy of the public University itself.

is clear that, when these private entities will be required to invest in public universities, will do so only in those areas that will result in their eyes more "attractive" from a point of view of business profits, and to the extent that an actual purchase decision-making power in economic management and teaching those same areas in which they invested.

There are two possibilities: either it was a mistake or you really believe that to solve the problem of funding drizzle with a system of type 'a bit for a never hurt anyone, "it must create another, namely the interference of the private sector in public.

The solution? Autonomy and non-straight direction

Block Student University two years ago, before the protests of autumn, when the law had not yet been turned 133 in 180, had set out clearly as the first point in the program the idea of \u200b\u200bblocking "any intrusion of the private University that is accepted, legalmente ed economicamente, al controllo diretto, in forma partecipativa, da parte dell’Ateneo. Autonomia e non etero-direzione! Siamo contrari a qualsiasi proposta che possa dare alle università italiane la possibilità di trasformarsi in fondazioni di diritto privato, giustificazione ai tagli effettuati dal Governo, primo passo verso una futura privatizzazione dell’intero sistema universitario. Così facendo si correrebbe anche il rischio di penalizzare facoltà che non suscitino un particolare interesse economico» (punto 1 del programma: «nessun privato nell’università»).

In alcune interviste avevamo also stated that, if private hospitals have had to come in the management plans of the universities, the quota should not exceed 40%, referring thereby to the Russian university structure that sees, in fact, public and private companies work together organically in the idea of one was included. Thus recovering, for others the principle of national cohesion mentioned among the guiding principles of the Reformation.

Indeed, the DDL provides that these external agents can not stay in office more than four years, which, although it can be bypassed with ploy by companies that have the interest, of course is a form of guarantee to prevent appoltronamento of who would make a mere matter of interest.

However what remains to be specified (and which unfortunately does not provide the Reformation) at this point are the selection criteria for entry.

If the University should be the place of training for future leaders of a nation, then it is a structure that works for the state, and for this reason these companies, if of companies are discussed, which replace the Boards of Directors, will prove to be organic to the company and the idea of \u200b\u200bdevelopment and national growth.

Policy-based - according to our proposal - should be: businesses must be Italian or at least European, but with headquarters in Italy, because we must absolutely avoid the interference of foreign multinationals (such as pharmaceuticals), the Italian companies must not relocate their production bases in other countries, especially outside the EU. Let alone be eligible banks or banking foundations, and even companies that have debt financing with any bank.

With this we must reiterate the absolute NO to the "possible" transformation of the universities in private foundations, which is obviously a real attack to dismantle what we have left the welfare state.

That's the central point of the speech: the presence of the state. It is irreplaceable. But it is primarily a cultural problem. In this sense, if there was an ethical state in which citizens and other social groups cooperate synergistically, as organic components of the national project, questo punto del DdL sarebbe sottoscrivibile. Usiamo a proposito la parola «sarebbe», nella forma condizionale, proprio perché le logiche che regolano il meccanismo sociale odierno puntano sempre e solo al profitto. Così ciò che va ribadito è che, se la Riforma si tramutasse in una tappa verso l’americanizzazione del sistema universitario, o più semplicemente verso la sua privatizzazione, risulterà necessario bloccarla immediatamente alle prime avvisaglie di speculazione.

La questione dei ricercatori

Altra questione deserves some clarification is that of researchers in universities.
At present, the aspiring researcher, at the end of the doctorate, he faces a period of precariousness, of indefinite duration. This period may receive a research grant (for up to 4-5 years) or other forms of grants and / or contracts. The entrance to a permanent status is with the competition by Researcher (on average, the entry age is over 35 years).

now proceed to analyze each situation case by case basis.

I ricercatori a Tempo Indeterminato (TI) oggi:

1) il concorso è pubblico e avviene sulla base del curriculum e delle pubblicazioni. Prevede due prove scritte e una orale, in cui normalmente il candidato ha modo di illustrare la propria attività di ricerca;

2) i ricercatori universitari sono sottoposti ad un periodo di prova per la durata di tre anni. Per essere confermato, il ricercatore deve redigere una relazione sull’attività scientifica e didattica, sottoporla all’approvazione del Dipartimento e della Facoltà e a una commissione nominata dal Ministero, composta da 3 professori di altri Atenei;

3) coloro che non superano per due volte il giudizio di conferma cessano di essere ricercatori, e possono passare ad altra amministrazione.

I ricercatori a tempo determinato (TD) oggi:

1) a partire dall’entrata in vigore della nuova legge, non sarà più possibile bandire nuovi posti per ricercatore a TI. Si potranno ban only places to TD, with contracts of three years, renewable once only;

2) contracts will be banned from both universities, both at the national level. For the latter, you must submit a research project, if successful, you can decide where to go to do it, but the necessary funds are not guaranteed;

3) to enter in the role of associate professor will have achieved sufficient competence at the national level, held each year.

4) if the researcher follows the suitability TD by the end of the second period and may be called as an associate professor ... otherwise he must find a new job;

5) the universities do not are obliged to ensure that there are resources for the call (as happens in countries with Anglo-Saxon tenure-track), so that the researcher TD, taking the fitness at the end of 3 +3, we could not find work simple budgetary reasons.

From Bill, also is perceived as both the first and the second category is subjected to a rigid control system documentation regarding the transparency of the work, which comes into force is required to report tot publications each year, and it becomes necessary to fulfill the obligation to provide information on the mountain 'hours chair "during the academic year. It is, however, quite clear, as the Reformation actually penalize researchers, as

1) does not consider them: low puts the role, does not recognize the work actually done by the time teaching, but excludes them from university fees for competitions;

2) penalizes them financially: shots from two-year salary in three years (subject, however, the total compensation), removal of the reconstruction of his career, from early retirement to teachers;

3) create great difficulties in their career: the cuts in university funding, which will inevitably reduce the new jobs created by Assistant Professor, Researcher and the introduction of the figure of a TD that, after 3 +3 years not known if he is unemployed, cause unwelcome and unfair competition between Researchers to TI and TD.

The problem for researchers is engaged also on the broader question as to which is subject to general underfunding public education better. The marginalization of the researchers and the current insecurity of future results, combined with cuts to FFO, the entry of private plans the University administration and management, risk, if not controlled properly, causing a depletion of the teaching and research in general.

In this sense, care must be taken also a very important relative to backwardness General of Italy in funding for research and teaching.

With regard to research funding, in fact, the general increase of investment in research and development in the OECD area in recent years, matched by even the fall in GDP of our country under 1%. From this point of view, we sidereal distance from countries like the United States, and we are instead of just unplug other countries such as Estonia.

As for the backwardness of the country over the funding to education, the reform does not intervene in the direction of bridging the gap that currently separates Italy from more OECD member countries, both in terms of per capita spending per student (Italy: $ 8,725; OECD average: 12,236), and is of value for students per teacher (Italy: 20; OECD average: 15).

So, to put it simply: the steps to stop funding to rain, the walk took place on merit, pass the cuts to waste, passes through the entry of private education public (only if and to the extent that such entry is configured in terms of university autonomy, once a public-private cooperation in functional and organic way to the national system).

But from an overall view, what is less and less present in all of this is the figure of the state itself, which, although efforts to address key issues such as just wastage of public government, the fight to the barons and fannulloneria which unfortunately often pervades the government itself (those responsible for public education in particular), he forgets to draw clear guidelines in relation to those areas instead, in the light of the Reformation, most in need of strong and decisive responses.

We refer to what has been said up on the selection criteria for the entry of private players in the Board so that the external borrowing at the end of the facts showing a genuine contribution the formation of the Italians tomorrow, with a view just "organic" state cohesive and inclusive, and not a mere exploitation driven by the logic of profit as an end in themselves.

We refer to the funds necessary to ensure the research, which seem to leave a bit 'to the case, but which necessarily require concrete answers and prompt; starting perhaps from a larger investment in GDP, still in a growth and development of the entire country.

We refer to greater public attention to the University so that it goes back to being source of men and ideas, and frontier of conquest and colonization of special interests.

make this possible, it is necessary, in practice, that this part of the same level of University in the distribution of private funds, and to this end, interventions under the equalization DDL 1905 do not seem sufficient. Whether a mistake or a calculated risk, not even remotely foreshadow a distinction between future University of series A (and private) and University of series B (public companies).

As mentioned on, everything goes through a cultural problem: what to re-envision the state as an ethical state, organic and social. This is the only way forward. A state where you certainly take account of merit, but where all as citizens, as the Italians, from the start the same starting line. Only with that basis and within this context to get to the finish. This goal is called "future". Riprendiamocelo.

Woke Up And My Stool Was Black

The breakdown of the European Union

The grave situation of the current crisis is not just monetary. We have to convince us, as it may seem incredible, that the crisis is a monetary instrument, the strongest and most striking among the many that have been put in place to achieve one goal: to eliminate from the political scene, economic, and cultural world, the nations of Europe, reducing asphyxiated at an angle of marginal survival. The mechanisms of the historical background, the "secrets" of this operation are fully analyzed and explained in my book "The dictatorship of Europe", recently published by Rizzoli (this is the reason why I was absent in the latter period My appointment with the site of the Italians and the Free post, but I hope that you have understood and forgiven) and to which court all readers because it is actually a text of a complaint and an absolute manifesto of battle , until the last day that I feared that he could not see the light.

will find there, therefore, not only account of what I personally experienced during my long years of war against European unification, but the names of all the traitors of Italy, from the political to the bankers, and finally the proposal for the governments of 'EU to abandon Maastricht before the euro collapses altogether.

Here, however, I invite my readers to do just that given by any means have at their disposal, speaking, writing, making it a reality for Italy, without awaiting the decisions of any other State.

nationalize the Bank of Italy and simultaneously create its own money (a kind of "italeuro" if you do not want to go to call it "pound", but would be better to return to the lira because there is still the reference exchange rate, a relationship which of course must be calibrated to the situation today by the Minister of Economy). Book bag only to national emissions of Government and to Italian citizens to buy them (on the model implemented by China) in order to prevent take it by force speculators to cause the failure and are at the mercy of the rating agencies as is happening Ireland, Greece, Portugal, etc.. The Italians certainly would buy government bonds with greater confidence and a greater interest than it is today almost non-existent, while it is truly vexatious (But is not the appropriate time) what happens to the "loans" from the European and global level is required for which an annual interest rate above 5%

short, separating Italy from the catastrophic economic destiny of the States of 'EU catastrophic fate that was intended, planned, pursued, and that some people (not only Ida Magli) far more competent, especially in the "left", they had planned from the beginning of ventilated single currency. The Director of Limes, for example, Lucio Caracciolo, a few months ago, the headline in his magazine:; "Where does the money without the state?" , but his voice remained unheard since already, before making the euro, published his controversial "Euro not."

But I'm going far beyond the alleged errors of assessment and know with absolute certainty, as I have shown in the "dictatorship of Europe", that the purpose was exactly that: the failure in all areas of Europe , although the majority of people obviously could not even imagine the slightest. So we must also withdraw immediately from all other measures of Maastricht, which are so dysfunctional as to suppose that they were invented by people in prey to fits of madness. "Quotas," to give just one example, in under which we throw away the milk and fruit then we buy from, and other states to stay in the units, thrown back into the sea nearly all the fish they caught, and so on, while there are people dying of hunger. Restoring and customs duties for goods that bring us harm, as it always has been based on the wisdom of centuries of trade. What is the point of chasing from store to store or warehouse to warehouse or dangerous counterfeit items in China, rather than block them before they get?

withdraw immediately from the Treaty of Schengen, restoring the boundaries that each sovereign state should possess if he wants to be sovereign, and thus prevent the invasion of immigrant and damages and expenses absurd that this entails.

short, fall in themselves, good sense, in reasonableness, believing that the construction of the EU we have been governed by two groups of people: the few who lead the world and pursue our purpose by making the appropriate laws and a majority who obeyed orders "crazy" without realizing that they were crazy. If we have some little hope of salvation, we must come to your senses at once, which might also help to save other peoples. Unfortunately there is no party in Italy that has not even moved an objection (except in the very first time the league) to the programs of European unification, then politicians can not expect them to do anything unless you are forced. We must find a way to claim with force, with noise, at least the most urgent: withdraw from the euro. I do not know who organize protests against the university reform, a matter of absolutely no importance in comparison to what we're talking about, but should be able to do something. Anyone will be able to do it, do it.

Drip Irrigation Vegetable Garden

Reports Italy - Russia in the crosshairs of the U.S. Embassy and the role of Fini

Among the documents recently published by "Wikileaks" include the following: cablegate.wikileaks.org / cable

The Italian press has quoted some passages, but often omitting other equally or even more relevant. The invitation to the readers is to consult individually, but for the benefit of the lazy or those who do not know English well, we produce below a summary of the highlights, with our occasional comments.

First of all, say what it is. It is a cable classified "SECRET / / NOFORN": "secret" is the intermediate level between "confidential" and "top secret", while "noforn" indicates that the document should not be shared with foreign nationals (of a ban is therefore stricter than the "restricted," allowing certain exceptions).

The sender and the U.S. Embassy in Rome, and the signature is that of Ronald P. Spogli, Ambassador from 10 August 2005-6 February 2009. The document is dated 26 January 2009: Spogli and then forward it a few days before finishing his term. Is addressed to the Secretary of State in Washington. The topic is the relationship between Italy and Russia.

After a little convincing introduction to the roots of the "Russophile" Italian, the document comes alive when it is said that the attention devoted to the relationship with Putin from Rome have a greater impact on our foreign policy than do our own parties, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs ENI. Berlusconi it would feed the belief that Putin, of all the European leaders, who estimated that more, and still is recognized in the style male, assertive and authoritarian Russia of the statesman. According gl'informatori Ambassador - that the document cites contacts in government as well as opposition parties, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Italian government itself - Berlusconi and his entourage would derive personal gain from the business with Russia. It quotes Mr Valentino Valentini as "key man" of Berlusconi for relations with Russia.

Italian policy towards Russia is determined by Berlusconi himself, who does not seek or accept advice about it. Minister Frattini, met in September 2008, Dick Cheney, then vice-president of the USA, admitted that it did have a say on relations with Russia. Frattini understand that Cheney would have confided in, assuming you do not share the views of Berlusconi on the Georgian crisis, then under way. Deserves a reflection of the fact that the Minister of Italian Foreign criticized the position of its head of government in a confidential interview with a senior foreign official.

But Berlusconi is not the only one in Italy to row to a strong friendship with Russia. ENI has an "immense political power," and according to informed political Spogli would be the main funder of Italian foreign policy think tanks and would keep on its payroll several journalists. ENI is described as the diplomatic service "unofficial" but real Italy to Russia. And of course the Italian ENI is also the party that speaks more plainly to Americans. Spogli recounts that, at of a meeting in March 2008, ENI's representatives have openly said that in their view, the threat to European energy security is not Russia but Ukraine, and to deal with it and build more pipelines oledotti directly linking Russia to Western Europe. The opposite, in fact, the strategy advocated by the United States. In addition to the well-known commitment of ENI in the Nord Stream and South Stream (the two gas pipelines under construction which crosses the Central and Eastern Europe), society, and together with the help of all'Edison Scajola would precede the construction of 'a modest pipeline Turkey-Greece-Italy the most grandiose project Nabucco, sponsored by the U.S., and in order not to offend Russian susceptibilities.

Because of Berlusconi and ENI, Russia - Spogli complains - in Europe can count on a country that systematically support its cause. All the more so now, being a failed personal relationships that bound the former U.S. president Berlusconi, Bush jr., The head of the Italian government seems destined to draw ever closer to Moscow.

But the U.S. is not willing to look at some pinless. The most interesting part of the document is just one where you describe the countermeasures that Spogli is implementing – ma stranamente è anche la porzione di testo meno citata dalla stampa italiana. L’Ambasciata afferma d’essersi impegnata in colloqui con esponenti politici interni ed esterni al Governo, col fine esplicito di creare, soprattutto all’interno del suo partito, una corrente ostile alla russofilia di Berlusconi. Inoltre, non meglio precisati “pensatoi” sono stati ingaggiati per costruire una corrente d’opinione pubblica ostile alla Russia e, si compiace Spogli, «lo sforzo sembra che stia pagando». L’opposizione si è subito regolata, impegnandosi nella critica del rapporto di Berlusconi con Putin, e taluni membri del PDL si sono rivolti privatamente ad un’ambasciata straniera – ovviamente quella degli USA – «per contrastare l’infatuazione di Berlusconi per la Russia».

Invitiamo i lettori a ponderare bene queste ultime affermazioni di Spogli, ed a confrontarle con quanto accaduto nella stampa, nella società civile e soprattutto nella politica interna italiana dal gennaio 2009 ad oggi.

How Much Can I Expect From A Pawn Shop On A Gun

With the excuse of the financial crisis will give us a caretaker government?

E’ una tesi che ho già esposto tra le righe del post del 19 novembre, Dieci giorni fa, però, sembrava un’ipotesi quasi accademica. Now that scenario becomes more likely.

Forget the statements of Fini and Berlusconi, Bossi and Bersani. No need to navigate on the outcome of the crisis. The true barometer of the crisis is the spread between Bund and BTP, which is the yield difference between bonds and German Italan. More salt, more storm there.
And look what's happening in the markets. It was a long time that the alarms on the public debt were not as frequent and distressing. And there are many indications that are not easily subside.

So we risk arriving at December 14, day of the trust, with the 'ansiometro "to maximum levels. At that point, the appeals to reason, for now isolated, become a chorus, deafening
"Neither election nor governicchio. The crisis is serious, very serious, even fatal. Help, alarm, we must save the only solution is a caretaker government for national salvation. "

Berlusconi, then, must sell, not relying on a strong majority and not wanting to even go down in history as the gravedigger of our country and, probably, the euro. So we find ourselves with Dragons or mountains or reviving Siniscalco or Tremonti, who keeps saying they do not want to betray, but begged from all, and especially dal centrodestra, potrebbe ricredersi.

Poi il governo tecnico provvisorio, di tre mesi in tre mesi diventerà definitivo. Fino alla fine della Legislatura. Il tempo necessaio per logorare il Cav ed estrometterlo definitivamente.

La mia é solo un’ipotesi, sia chiaro. Ma tra i tanti scenari che vengono ipotizzati in questi giorni, mi sembra il più probabile.

E’ quel che tra l’altro stanno predicando Enrico Letta, Massimo D’Alema, Giuliano Amato, Gianfranco Fini ovvero politici ben ammanigliati in certi ambienti. Ho trovato in agenzia questa dichiarazione proprio di Enrico Letta: «Il Paese sta peggio che nel ’93: Ciampi then called to get us out of the mire. Today is worse: the debt is growing, unemployment too. We need a super Ciampi, who is supported by a wide array of political forces. And then changed the electoral law, we can go to vote. "

more clearly than that ...

or wrong?

Maplestory How To Make A Moonstone Ring

Who will come out before the Euro? Conspiracies and conspiracy

Political control Europe begins to decline now that the existential crisis Eurosystem is worsening day by day. The numerous speeches, interviews, articles and other public statements on the future after the Euro as we know it "are a clear signal. The British press focuses attention on what will Germany: The Financial Times on November 24 asks if "Germany will kill the Euro?" While the Independent echoed November 25: "Germany will be the first to leave the Euro? ".

Both newspapers, as well as others in Britain, warn readers that can be expected a ruling by the German Constitutional Court to appeal against EU aid Eurozone, and that voters in Germany are opposed to these gigantic bailouts and increasingly hostile toward the Euro. "No, the threat comes not from the Euro weaker members, but the stronger ones," writes The Independent. "The reform of the treaties governing the euro is therefore essential for Germany ... In practice, however, is difficult to imagine that Germany will be able to get the reforms that voters want her."

And this is the greatest threat to the European single currency at the moment - that next year, with frustration at their inability to achieve meaningful reform of the Euro, Germany (and other countries who think like you ) could abandon the project in which they have invested so much. "

The Daily Telegraph went further, quoting Prof. Wilhelm Hankel, one of five applicants to the Constitutional Court, which says:" Germany can not continue to pay the bail without going bankrupt. This scares people. Is not found free in a safe bank in Germany today because they were all leased and filled with gold and silver. It is a kind of underground Switzerland within our borders. People have terrible memories of 1948 and 1923, when he lost all his savings ... there was a clear violation of the law, and no court can ignore it. I am convinced that the Court will prohibit future payments. "The Telegraph concludes:" If he is right – e lo sapremo in febbraio – la crisi del debito UE subirà una svolta drammatica".

In effetti ci sarà un'udienza decisiva in dicembre, e si prospetta una sentenza all'inizio dell'anno prossimo. Questo scatenerà sicuramente una forte reazione dai mercati finanziari, contro cui dovranno proteggersi i tedeschi, se vogliono evitare di andare a fondo insieme al sistema in bancarotta del gruppo Inter-Alpha.

In Germania stessa molte personalità si sono unite ad Hankel nel mettere in dubbio il sistema dell'Euro "come lo conosciamo", inclusi Hilmar Kopper, ex amministratore delegato della Deutsche Bank, e Hans-Olaf Henkel, ex presidente della Confindustria tedesca (BDI). A livello parlamentare, FDP politicians in particular (the minority partner in the coalition) have announced that they will not vote for aid to the Irish banking system, adding that it is necessary to protect taxpayers' money by this measure. And Carsten Schneider, a spokesman for the SPD on the budget, he appealed to the Minister of Finance Schaeuble to tell the special session of the Budget Committee in the Bundestag on November 29 "has that kind of Plan B, if the euro system should collapse."

In Italy Paolo Savona, president of the Interbank Deposit Protection Fund, reiterated its call for a Plan B Italian, for a future outside the Euro. Speaking on Vatican Radio Nov. 22 said that the only question is whether the Euro will be abandoned by choice or as an "inevitable result." A serious country, he added, must have a "program, a hypothesis, a Plan B that includes this possibility."

In an interview Nov. 19 publication Sussidiario.net internet, Savona says that "the buffer solutions that are identified can not work." "It is better at this point that every country has its own pattern on how to get out of the situation. Everyone should know what is happening and what to do if you break the Eurozone or even the European Union." Today, Savona complaint, "we are in a situation of 'foreign occupation', there are others that should tell you how we must lead. This is not acceptable, it is not decent.
