How Long Can It Take For A Coccyx Injury To Heal

A joyful story of Christmas ...

Adapted from Repubblica.it :

That boy with no arms on the train of indifference

SHULIM Vogelmann

Dear Editor, is Sunday, December 27. Eurostar Roma-Bari. Around me, families met and tired after the Christmas celebrations, students return to their universities, some workers' sad having to leave their city to resume work in the north. Together with them a boy with no arms.

Yes, no arms, with two stumps made of three fingers sprouting from his shoulders. You got on the train with his forces. Put down the shoulder bag on the ground with enormous effort of the neck and pushes with his feet under the seat. Collapses in the chair. Behind the thick myopic glasses all his physical and psychological suffering as a gesture so simple for others to board the train. Deep breaths to still the beating of the heart. Will have maximum three decades.

start with. Shortly before the train (...) to pass the controller. A girl of twenty-five made up with great care and impeccable uniforms. Reached the boy with no arms asked the ticket. These, articulating his words with great difficulty, managed to murmur a disjointed sentence: "No ticket, no make it in time, disability and handicap". With his mouth (the neck bends unnaturally, the veins swell, his face turns purple) pulls from his pocket a bunch of money. They are the exact figure for the fare. The controller counts them and bureaucratic tone tells the guy who does not do enough because the train ticket costs, in this case, fifty euro more. The boy says he has no mumbling the more money he can not pay any premium, and his voice cracking with tears for the repeated humiliation "Handicap, handicap."

The passengers of the car, myself included, following the scene with bated breath, many with their eyes planted on the ground, without even the courage to look. At this point, the girl becomes harder and turns to the guy with a dismissive tone, as if it were a criminal, has a look in his eyes accusingly slamming in the face of that poor wretch. To defend the young man tries to write something to communicate what can not be said, with her mouth takes the pen from his pocket and tries to write something on the table. The girl takes the pen and severely rebuked him, saying that you do not write on the tables the train. The car fell silent ice cream. I wish to speak, but I'm stuck.

The girl decides to answer the question in another way and in accordance with the procedure learned in the course for experienced controllers goes in search of bold steps to guard. With his departure from the scene come up for air travelers, and we all hope that the story ends there: a reprehensible way, a shame no queue, the controller gives up and is devoted to check the tickets to the rest of the train. But no.
are back in two. This time, however, before they reach the young disabled person, from my seat block and sub-controller and conductor do that given the particular situation is perhaps the case to face the thing with a little 'more than compassion.

To which the girl, apparently the tip in full swing, with acid air tells me that he is doing his duty, that there are rules to enforce that responsibility is his, and I have nothing to do nothing. The conductor intervenes and asks me what my problem. The summary of the situation. Listened to my "statement", the conductor, who was also in his thirties, states that if the young man had not had time to make the ticket it was her fault and that there are still at the station self-service machines. Yes, you read right: in his opinion the solution would be the self-service machine. "But I do not have arms! How did you use the self service coffee?" I ask the conductor which, with its bureaucratic logic he replies: "There's assistance." "Of course, always full of assistants at the State Railways in addition to self-service machines" I say I, and I would add that the rules are valid only when it suits because during the first leg with the Eurostar booking essential was packed with people standing without ticket and the controller is not even past to control the tickets. "And do you know why?" I concluded. "Because those people had their arms there ...".

Meanwhile all the passengers who are following the evolution of the story remain silent. The conductor goes further and reached the students go through the process, with equal indifference and equal equanimity. With a difference, probably the result of his role as conductor: his decision will be enforceable. The guy has to get off the train, get a ticket for the next train to Rome and get on that. But the young man known how this thing, looking disoriented, sweating with fear, begins to shake his head and whole body in a desperate attempt to explain himself, expressed with the usual explanation explicit, clear word handicap.

The response of the guard is ready: "You (who you?) Think we are racists, but we here do not discriminate against anyone, we just do our job, indeed, we are the opposite of racism." And having said that, on the advice of the girl controller, we proceed to Phase B: the police station. We arrived at the station (...). On the train go up two agents. Two quiet, middle-aged gentlemen. No aggression in the expression of the face or nell'incedere. Should be used in cases of passengers without tickets who do not want to pay. They go towards the young and disabled as they see one of them raises his hands to heaven and exclaimed loudly: "Ah, these, with these you can not do anything else happens a mess! These are always right, they can not them touch ". Then consult with the conductor and the girl and the controller is decided that the boy will come by train, a third controller will take the money and the disabled will be the ticket to the next train, but with no assured place: you will have to sit in the dining car.

The young disabled person, totally at the mercy of events, now no longer tries to speak, but understands that probably will be allowed to continue their journey in the dining car and then lifted, with the impetus of those who escaped from a danger of those who vanish sees the threat, leans forward and kisses the hand of the conductor.

Epilogue of the story. Sent down from the disabled train, before police abandoned the car, the girl calls the cops controller to write down my generalities. Astonished, I ask why. "Why did you hurt." "Did I not say bad words? I have prevented to do your job? "I ask more and more incredulous. Answer:" You told me you are rude. "I get up and get my license. While a police officer shall record my data on a sheet asking the girl to tell me his name to know with whom I had the pleasure to speak. She, after a moment of disorientation, sounding satisfied, I said it was not required to give your details and tells me that if I could record the number of the train.

Then ask a reference to the police and they too refuse and I recommend simply marks: Police train (...). I of course meant many things, but the lady sitting next to me whispered to me not to say anything, and I decide follow the advice of deferring down. Police officers and inspectors leave the car and the train starts. The words of my neighbor's place were the only words of solidarity that I have heard in this whole ugly story. For the rest, were all still, silent, observing.

The restaurant of the week: "Da Giovanni"

For the past 54 years by John Restaurant is a landmark of the Paduan cuisine offering a particularly warm and familiar.
Just sitting there waiting to trick they find a huge pat of butter to spread on fresh bread. Among the first courses of pasta homemade gnocchi served dominate, like the rest of the first blank, in fact, the sauces are served separately in order to give customers the freedom to dress the first among a wide range of tastes. And then comes the legendary boiled and roasted, is the most intense voted to the tradition of abundance. As for me I have not tasted the roast I had to focus efforts on the boiled and I must say that few restaurants offer such a wealth and variety (chicken, head, tongue, sausage ...). Either boiled or roasted they are accompanied by delicious sauces with herbs or with a basis of horseradish (horseradish) and courted by devilishly delicious pickles vegetables and fruits. The Cabernet of the house is quite possibly not the best choice to accompany the boiled. Average spending € 30-40.

Caravaggio? Where?

On Mattino di Padova you promote the exhibition "Caravaggio, Lotto and Ribera" in the collection of the scholar Roberto Longhi. The collection is definitely interesting for the high value of individual works, but the disappointment is great to find that there is Caravaggio's' only the well-known "boy bitten by a lizard," increases the disappointment in having to see works of this caliber lit incorrectly, the lighting used for the show is not worthy of a museum such as that used in the rest of the civic museums Padua. The exhibition will visit soon if you want imegnare well the rest of the tour, I recommend you buy a ticket for the exhibition at the Civic Museums, unfortunately, with the 8 euro ticket you have access only to collezoni Longhi then you will be redirected to the output leaving only a glimpse of the remaining sites of the museums. Even in Venice when the shows are themed (eg Tintoretto) help you with just € 10 to visit the entire Academy.
If you like the style of Caravaggio, then go to visit the exhibition otherwise turn away, then if you want to visit the Scrovegni Chapel near you should book early, at least one day before.

Article by Mattino di Padova:

"Caravaggio, Lotto, Ribera '
The collection of Roberto Longhi

The Museums are home from November 19 March 28, 2010 at the exhibition "Caravaggio, Lotto, Ribera. Four centuries of masterpieces from the Fondazione Longhi. " Among the works from the home library of the Florentine art historian is also "The boy bitten by lizard by Caravaggio.


Caravaggio, Lotto, Dosso Dossi, Ribera, Moray, Cerano, Valentin de Boulogne. These are just some of the masters who presents the exhibition "Caravaggio, Lotto, Ribera. Four centuries of masterpieces from the Fondazione Longhi, "that from November 19 to March 28 is housed within the Eremitani Museum of Padua.

A charming path that compares the masterpieces of the collection to the more expensive Longhi art historian and art gallery of Eremitani Museum, which houses the works of Venetian artists favored by the same Longhi.

In all more than fifty works from different periods. From the thirteenth century, then to touch the fourteenth century, with examples of Bolognese painting, and get to the cultural exchanges between the main centers of Italian art between the fifteenth and sixteenth century represented by a group of masters such as Dosso Dossi and Lorenzo Lotto Sustris Lambert.

But more exciting is that the core consists of paintings of the seventeenth century, among which stand on the famous "Boy bitten by a lizard by Caravaggio and paintings by Ribera, Borgianni of Valentin and Mattia Preti.

Snowboarding Bandanas To Wear With Helmets

Rock or Slow?


Some time ago the then Mayor of Treviso, Giancarlo "The Sheriff" Gentilini, had introduced an alternative signage is not provided by law which is to draw on the road, near the most dangerous intersections , white skulls as a warning to unruly motorists.
Last Saturday I decided to move his residence from Treviso to Padua, but soon left the office register me realize that even in large cities of the doctors like to change the road signs as shown in the photo. Thanks to the innovative idea of \u200b\u200bthe Deputy Mayor Rossi and the genius of Padua Celentano hours the driver may decide (once they realized that the cartel is serious and not a hoax) or whether to take the path to rock the ring or the slow or go through the center of Padua, where maybe you can interfere with the location of the new tram entered service on Saturday.

The book of the week: "Beauty and Hell" by Roberto Saviano

This book is not shocking as "Gomorra" but is rather a modern little "poem" that tells the epic deeds of heroes. There is talk of
Saviano from the first steps in the literature up to the writer said, embraced by the earthquake in Italy, which is called the Nobel Academy in Stockholm as an example of courage that can expose through his art is the scourge of the Mafia (whatever its form and name) is the paralysis of a society not yet able to respond, ready than a cowardly smear and tarnish his name, his work, his courage.
It is said of a sample as Lionel Messi, who won the biggest challenge against his own body and Marcianise boxers, so the ring of sweat smells like anger and redemption. Worthy of note are Miriam Makeba, come to Castel Volturno to bring his greetings to fellow Africans exterminated six Camorra from beasts. It also enhances the pint-sized figure of a woman Felicia's mother, Peppino Impastato, who for decades had to face the murderess of her son prior to obtaining justice, a woman fighter who pointed the finger in court " Zu 'Tano "Badalamenti carneficie of the child and the tyrant of Cinisi. It tells the story of Anna Politkovskaya, a journalist and writer, who was killed because there was no other way to plug the mouth in what has Putin's Russia. Saviano then talks about encounter with Joe Pistone aka Donnie Brasco infiltrated the Bonanno mafia clan and the interview with Enzo Biagi in its last transmission.

Thanks Roberto for taking this heroic mission which will benefit all Italians. I can not find other words that carry over to Felicia Impastato Saviano who called on the phone and said: - We should not say anything, I say only two things, one mother and one woman. That mother is "be careful", that a woman is "careful and continuous" -.

IBS.it Review:

"Writing in recent years has given me the opportunity to exist. Articles and reports. Stories and editorials. A job for me was not just a job. Coincided with my life. "Gomorra
Three years later, the novel investigation that has earned him worldwide fame and success, but also the threat of an armored life Camorra and Roberto Saviano takes its dialogue with readers from the pages of a new book, where you breathe in deeply the size of the civil and moral tension in his writing. A writing that explores the reality and boldly says the weapons of literature, combining the charm of the narrative with the commitment of live testimony, not to become a way of life but the reason for life itself. So it is with Saviano and you can tell by reading every line. They understand their readers, to which the author expresses thanks that is also and above all, an admission of intent: "If I had a dream, was to record with my words, to prove that the word literature can still have a weight and the power to change reality. Despite everything that has happened to me, my "prayer", thanks to my readers, has been heard. " To these people, those who are not content to float and to pull a living, between laziness and cynicism, but to those who have made it possible for a text Gomorrah become dangerous for certain powers, he is dedicated to the beauty and hell.
The book comes from the collection of essays and articles originally appeared in newspapers and national media, then reworked and adapted for publication in one volume, with the addition of an introduction and a writing unpublished. Has no intention of being a homogeneous, in contrast leaves space for different voices that spring from personal passions is both the author's sense of duty. The chapters, grouped around five thematic clusters - the south, men, business, war, north - touched on issues dear to the young journalist and author fields: from native lands polluted by the Camorra crime in the affairs of the Lombard real estate market, the boys of Scampia , star for a day at Cannes, the considerations on the Hollywood blockbuster "300", sull'epopea of \u200b\u200bThermopylae, by moving portrait of Michel Petrucciani, Bones crystal, to the memorable meeting with the player Lionel Messi of Barcelona, \u200b\u200bthe only able to repeat, for the better, the goal of Maradona Mexican masterpiece. And finally, the story of the evening with Salman Rushdie the Nobel Academy in Stockholm, a magical place where you can "pick up your lungs and the smell of damp wood that seems to have kept all the appearances of those who has been awarded ". Where Saviano feeds the desire to remain true to its ideals, divided between "beauty", which is necessary for the writer and lives, and its opposite: the 'hell' of evil and corruption that always seems to prevail. Where the writer can show the world what they have always lived on her skin and testifies in his writings. As Albert Camus said, "the charges that are the size of the craft writer are two: the service of truth and that of freedom. "
