Quella vecchia locanda: Il tempo della gioia (1974)
WE STILL WRITES MAXIMUM Roselle (keyboard Quella Vecchia Locanda): PARTICIPATION that fills us with joy and is' a great honor for all of us.
THANKS MAX. Stay with us always :-)
After nearly two years of recording silence, but offset by a strong live activity (Controcanzonissima, Gualdo Pop, Piper Club, Festival of Vanguard Napoli) , the sextet Roman of "The old inn " recurs in the recording studio in January 1974 to produce what will be the last album of their career: "The time of joy . Compared to
debut album there are no more eccentric violinist Donald Lax, returned to the United States and Romualdo Colletta replaced for technical reasons. Arriving
Massimo Felice and Massimo Giorgi, the latter coming from the Portrait of Dorian Gray the future Goblin Claudio Simonetti .
but were still within the same record structure, it changes the label of the group that this time has a direct impact on RCA, as its subsidiary Help failure to financial troubles. Incidentally, "The time of joy" will be one of the last album produced by progressive U.S. multinational, is now much more interested to generate more salable to fusion and electronica. Compared with the first album
, do not change the inspiration to the great Baroque composers ( Corelli, Vivaldi and Bach ), the beautifully made and a marked taste for research into new sounds.
It 's very different but the general approach of sound.
Electricity creative and taste Hard-Prog of 1972, giving way greater orthodoxy and to a certain sobriety arrangements, found for example in ' no doubling on vocals latency and electric sound. A lack this, that puzzled many fans who judged the album cold and detached.
In fact, on the one hand it is true that without the creative madness of Lax and enthusiasm of the early days, temperance songs stiffened. However - remember to Classic Rock keyboardist Massimo Roselli - who has also hired the RCA intervened heavily on the original matrices (by order of then director Michelini ) , distorting not just the original consecutio 's work.
Also, just so come nell' album omonimo , anche in questo caso le parti vocali non riuscirono ad amalgamarsi omogeneamente all'impasto timbrico a causa di un missaggio a dir poco opinabile.
Musicalmente, nei primi due brani le citazioni classiche sono davvero ridondanti ( "A forma di…" ) e, perlomeno per i primi 10 minuti, il disco non riesce a decollare se non per la splendida intro di pianoforte di Massimo Roselli.
Senza essere malevoli quindi, potremmo tranquillamente asserire che tutta la potenza del disco si concentra nei quindici minuti del binomio " Il tempo della gioia " e " Un giorno un amico ". Solo in quell'arco di tempo infatti, la band viaggia in full swing and will really begin to wonder why the passion has not been extended to the entire album.
The title track for example, is wonderful: a fascinating mixture of classical and contemporary sounds where baroque and modern blend easily into a narrative that includes deadlifts polyrhythmic, calculated inharmonies and fragments voice reminiscent at times as much blood Reverse of the Medal (eg The Bible).
The sounds are varied and refined and is clearly perceptible feeling good group, nothing is out of place and just listen this track, the album is worth all .
" One day a friend " is played instead on more intimate topics, but with determination and ruthlessness a sign that the QVL would have much more to say.
Unfortunately, the prevalence of songs less restrictive and a bad record promotion, the album is penalized in terms of sales of that conflict, ultimately causing the dissolution of the final band.
In this regard, always tells Roselli :
" RCA experimented on us a new line of promotion: do nothing.
to promote them should think about the radio broadcast. [...] It would have been necessary at least go into specialized radio to promote our philosophy of music. "
and again, without much irony
" I read on some sites that QVL was dissolved by disagreements among its members, nothing further from the truth. The reason, in truth, it is more down to earth. We must thank the austerity period that nquel was adopted by the then government to save energy. The weekend was blocking traffic and engage local groups working less. It was, in effect, an economic problem . "
In any case, it was clear that the absorption capacity and the composition of the audience had changed compared to that back in 1972 when the group inflamed audiences of the Festival of Villa Pamphili .
Perhaps even the concept of "joy " was inexorably changing.

La Locanda delle fate: Forse le lucciole non si amano più (1977)
The seven musicians of Locanda delle Fate (name borrowed from a brothel) join in Asti in the second half of the '70s and, in some ways, are the classic example of a group right at the wrong time.
In fact, when they released their first and only LP dated 1977, Punk and the songwriting had definitely won the hearts young masses.
With some surge of pride too that same Prog was historically close to the end and the sporadic attempts to keep it up turned out to be mostly isolated, or worse, counterproductive.
For its part, including the receptivity of the artistic movement had become antagonistic to the same structural changes and political society: the Counterculture was plunged into crisis in June 1976 and had given way to pragmatic spontaneity del Movimento del '77 .
La stagione dei grandi Festival Pop era finita e la drammaticità degli eventi lasciava ormai pochissimo spazio alle complesse atmosfere del Progressive .
Eppure c'era chi ci provava ancora: dall'America Gianni Leone del Balletto di Bronzo pubblicava il suo primo album solista (" Vero ") sotto lo pseudonimo di Leo Nero , i Gramigna rispolveravano il Canterbury , la Pentola di Papin accennava a qualche riflusso classico nel più totale anonimato e i grandi gruppi storici ( Banco , Pfm e Orme ) stavano prendendo sempre più la via del Pop .
Gli Area e Demetrio Stratos , non a caso, quell'anno rimasero discograficamente silenti e, a questo punto, la " Locanda delle Fate " poteva dirsi realmente l'unico gruppo Prog del 1977, con tutte le complicazioni che ne derivarono.
Capitanata dal terzetto Conta, Gaviglio e Vevey (il primo, tastierista e gli altri due chitarristi) , poi integrata da altri quattro componenti tra the singer Leonardo Sasso, the large band of Asti was hired in early 1977 by the record company Phonogram , thanks to some demo tapes and live without any previous activity.
convened studies Polygram of Milan, Milan impact in his first and only album by the metaphorical title of " Perhaps the fireflies do not love most ," published in May, and preceded by a short promotional tour bring them in Rai.
Although the style is very spacious with Progressive Rock Tracks and Canterbury (and thus as we said, out of time) , the production does not skimp on the budget at all: Top-quality gatefold style Roger Dean with pictures of the inside, and a engraving masterful artistic Prestigious signed by the brother of Vangelis , Nico Papathanassiou , also starred at the time of the turning point of Art Chrisma .
Apart from the technical side, since the first of the seven songs in a playlist you'll find that "the fireflies and" is essentially a reflective work. The style is that of Prog English, but surrounded by a calmness that makes any particular 'incipit sovrastrutturale rispetto alla sua realtà storica.
I testi invitano l'ascoltatore a rifugiarsi nell'illusione quale unica alternativa all'asprezza del quotidiano e lo stesso protagonista delle liriche, Estunno (contrazione di Est ate e Au tunno ) , vive in ciascuna canzone tutte le diverse forme di ripiego su se stesso per estraniarsi dalla materialità e auto-ricompensarsi delle fatiche di una vita difficile.
Si va dal ricordo dell'infanzia (" Profumo di colla bianca ") all'evocazione dell'amore giovanile in " Looking for a new border ", ultimately, for the desire to supplement the shortcomings of its own past (" Estunno Dream ") before the acquiree awareness of a new spiritual dimension (" Asking wisdom ").
If we are then, a concept not too unhistorical if taken from the point of view of "transition between two eras " but unfortunately, so impractical that a formal response despite encouraging sales (over 5,000 copies sold) is not hoped followed the take-off .
In any event, beyond the historical evaluation " La Locanda delle Fate" is absolutely inscribed among the best teams Prog Italian, so much so that their LP is still remembered as one of the most valuable of the '70s.
Although highly indebted to the Channel prog and vitiated by a certain heaviness in the lyrics, "Maybe fireflies do not love most " is an extraordinary sophistication and there are no words that can compensate for the pleasure of ' listening.
a shame for the timing, but as the poets said: "time waits for no one .

Metamorfosi: Inferno (1973)

Italy came out in stores across the second working Metamorphosis.
I do not know what they expect fans of the former " Fragments" after a debut so focused on music beat-Catholic but certainly not an album that was released on 30 gennaio1973.
In fact, back in the wonderful cover of "Gamma Film" by Roberto Gavioli (that of "Mammoth, Babbut and Fliut,", "Cimabue" and "Firefighter Council") is sensed that something had changed: no more hellish scenarios biblical figures but not the brightest set on the songs of joy live and to believe, but dark tales of Hell features Dante.
The the band line up had changed: the guitarist Luciano Tamburro had gone without being replaced more and, in the rhythm section, drummer Mario Natali had given way all'inquieto Congolese Gianluca Herygers ( Bravo, but insane, "Jimmy told me personally ).
The Metamorphosis were then seated in the quartet but, while keeping intact the 3 / 4 of the old formation, had completely revolutionized both their image is, as we shall see, their sound.
Inferno is actually a concept album in total thickness Prog. A volcanic suite of 16 short movements in which the protagonists are put to the index of the ills of society ( drug dealers, greedy, racist, political etc.), updating the model proposed in Divine Comedy of Dante .
The spirituality of the group moves from the primitive magnification of a Faith otherworldly to the concrete complaint of those subjects that are corroding the civilized world , demonstrating not only a supervening maturity artistic and intellectual, but also the assumption of a common consciousness perfectly in step with the times .
The same sound of the disc has nothing to " It was the sixth day .
still peppered with quotations from mystical "Inferno" is a granite gait between different themed scenarios, all perfectly cohesive warp by a solid and varied musical and supported by a voice of rare power and incisiveness.
Each of the episodes that make up the album has its own well-defined personality and engages those adjacent forming a lineup of extraordinary beauty.
keyboards Enrico Olivieri (Sintex custom Elka, Hammond C3 and Plan ) are the harmonizing element of a groove that alternates expertly majestic songs ("I ntroduction ", "Charon ") to dark and gothic atmospheres (" Violent " drug dealer"), reaching peaks at times of immense passion (" Lussurios i).
The narrative tension and bending is not known, returns a Prog Rock , in many ways aligned with the more famous colleagues d'oltremanica.
La possente voce di Spitaleri raggiunge qui uno dei suoi tanti vertici interpretativi e la sezione ritmica Turbitosi - Herygers da quanto di meglio si potesse chiedere ad un'opera di questa caratura.
Anche se inficiato da un leggero pietismo poetico (che comunque era nella perfetta norma per quei tempi quale eredità dell' Underground ) , " Inferno " è da considerarsi un monolite del Prog Italiano per classe compositiva, strumentale e tecnica.
Capolavoro nel suo genere, and highly sought after by collectors around the world (so as to have been one of the world's most counterfeited album) , the disc also had a moderate commercial success by selling, they say, about 10,000 copies.
Defects? Yes there are, but certainly not attributable to the technical abilities of the group.

Replacing Front Lens Canon
Balletto di Bronzo: Sirio 2222 (1970)
The Balletto di Bronzo was born in Naples an idea of \u200b\u200bthe future of DJ "for you young " Raffaele Cascone that with drummer Giancarlo Stinga , bassist Michael Cupaiuolo or singer and guitarist Mark Cecioni offers music beat at the foundations of Italian NATO under the name "Wild Beaters."
Cascone however, soon abandons his companions and they replaced him with former "stone faces" Lino Ajello . Finally, the quartet completes its metamorphosis, adopting the name Art Balletto di Bronzo, inspired by the popular picture of Edward Wadsworth 1940, "The Bronze Ballet .
Thus stabilized, the newborn training, arrived in 1969 to his first recording contract with ARC , historic RCA label pilot among whose ranks had also fought the Rokes, Patty Pravo, Dino and Lucio Dalla.
Onset makes headlines e l'indiavolato 45 giri " Neve calda " (promosso due volte in RAI alla trasmissione "Chissà chi lo sa" e tradotto anche in spagnolo) la traghetta in meno di un anno all'etichetta madre RCA .
A fronte di tanta considerazione, il " Balletto " rilascia così un secondo singolo, " Si Mama Mama" / Meditazione " (1970) e finalmente pubblica in maggio il suo primo e memorabile album, " Sirio 2222 ": disco ricercato non solo per motivi collezionistici, ma anche perché rappresentativo di un modus tutto particolare di traghettare il beat nelle forme più creative del rock .
The album is amazing for a good dynamic for the cohesion of the group that returns every single piece in a fantasy almost shameless.
From the first song "A place ", the musicians demonstrated to have an edge over their contemporaries: it co-exist in fact a wise use of rhythmic breaks that seem to multiply the structure of songs, repeated grafts and harmony that makes all songs exclusive and never rams.
Another good example of this contamination progressive "avant la lettre" is the song "Eh eh ah ah " in which an unexpected intervention of harmonic fringes and shares no apparent reason, a low fluid structure that recalls the blues of Canned Heat .
There are then the volcanic strutturatissima " Hot Snow," the classical "Meditation " jewel pre-progressive and psychedelic suite " Mission Sirius 2222" with its nine minutes and a half carves out a place of his own in the post-beat Italian.
The rest is a rock sincere, well structured and without concessions to the obvious: commendable voice Marco Cecioni and the inexhaustible and colorful battery Jenkins Stinga . This, of course, without diminishing the ubiquitous work of bass and guitar finish and claim the rest of the tonal structure.
The production, however, is still thin and listless: a clear sign that the major American in the group sensed a great opportunity, but without committing too much in recognizing the artistic value and, above all, without giving a ' appropriate promotion.
The album then goes completely unnoticed and, Even more annoying for a beginner band, the musicians will not be recognized no "credit" in the liner notes, except for a photo taken in the studio.
Paradoxically, the names of the authors of the songs are actually allocated to people outside the project ( Della Bruna, Simonelli, Gioieni, Iarrusso, Umiliani ) but today we know that the real composer of the music were the only Ajello, Stinga and Cupaiuolo .
Another thing that is certain is that the name of Piero Umiliani was approached to " you wake up with me " in quanto quel brano fu scelto per i titoli di coda del film di Mario Bava " Cinque bambole per la luna d'agosto " (1970) per cui lo stesso Umiliani compose la colonna sonora. Non è dato però di sapere in che termini vi mise mano.
Fortunatamente, malgrado lo scarso impatto commerciale, le idee del Balletto avevano attecchito nella Napoli più avanguardistica, attirando in particolare l'attenzione del vecchio amico Gianni Leone che, con il suo ingresso nella band, la portò ai livelli più alti del progressivo Italiano con il successivo trentatrè giri " Ys ".
The painting "The Bronze Ballet" (1940) by Edward Wadsworth is still on display at the Tate Gallery in London.

A tu per tu con un mito
do not often come face to face with a wine expert of international renown. And Régis Camus is without doubt one of the largest winemaker in the history of Champagne. In force since 1994, the historic house Piper Heidsieck (1785), since 2002 he inherited from his teacher Daniel Thibault the role of chef de cave in the prestigious sparkling wine Reims. Since then it has been awarded five times as "Winemaker of the Year" by ' UK International Wine Challenge (2004, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010). Also in 2010, the British international competition has elected its Charles Heidsieck Brut Vintage 2000 Champagne as the best year. Despite the triumphs and an almost absolute power to be given to 9milioni Footprint of bottles coming out every year by the two brands Piper Heidsieck (8 million) and Charles Heidsieck (1 million) that he wanted to unify and make wine in same establishment, Régis keeps that expression of the enlightened mind and sardonic relativist amusing anecdotes and rattles as if to say: "Come on, we're always talking about bubbles." Yeah, but bubbles! Here we are at levels of quality sublime. This is the Champagne. Everything else, outside the denomination, is nothing more than "sparkling wine", as keen to stress the marcketing responsible for the company, about the fledgling British bubbles.
For Champagne takes the land there, 150 km east of Paris , cold and wet outside but heated in the belly of a layer of gypsum often several hundred feet, where the Romans dug mines in the shape of pyramids (the Crayères , the 'plasterer') and where, since 1600, were created the first wine aging of the baby 're-fermented wine'.
Down there, in fact, the temperature is always around to 11 ° C, the dim light filtering from the few openings in the ground, 20 meters higher, and the soft plaster softens even the slightest vibration. That 's where, prior and then piles up on pupitres pending disgorgement, resting on the lees, the yeast, all the bottles of the house. Minimum 24 months Brut Piper, 36 to Charles. To reach the minimum of 5 and 8 years for their Vintage . Like what, exactly, just won in London.
And then it takes that trio of grape varieties chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier that only Reims area are the ideal conditions to give life to vins Clairs , ovvero alle basi, i vini fermi che, assemblati e addizionati di lieviti e zuccheri, rendono possibile il miracolo del metodo champenois.
Ed è proprio qui che, da settembre a giugno, interviene lo chef de cave. Assaggiando, testando, confrontando le caratteristiche dei vini fermi prodotti dalla vinificazione separata dei tre vitigni, provenienti dagli oltre 200 cru da cui si rifornisce l'azienda. Solo un 10% dei vigneti, infatti, è di proprietà della maison; le altre uve vengono acquistate da contadini 'récoltants'. Ogni giorno Régis e la sua ristretta squadra di collaboratori assaggiano e confrontano i vari campioni di vino. E in un gioco a esclusione danno le pagelle e decide how to compose the various cuvée. Which wines and cru such as Charles and allocate them to Piper. Such as those that can give life to thousandths memorable and so exalted by those who go to replenish the reserves intended to address in the following years the vintages are less fortunate. Like the insipid and watered down in 2001, or the over-ripe and torrid 2003.
Another task of the chef de cave is just to keep the product always at the highest levels of quality, year after year, and make it more recognizable.
Everything, as Regis says, "wearing the austere pinot noir with floral aromas and fruity chardonnay and the color and brightness of pinot meunier.
For a unique and inimitable wine. Why, He reminds us, "we're always talking about wine."

Un Montecompatri da "Promised Land"
In those days I was releasing the cell from a flood of text messages that I had blocked the memory of Sim and I found this message saved in the drafts folder.
"Roman virtues, Tenuta Le Quinte, Upper Montecompatri 2008" .
And I remembered.
the long wait outside the Olimpico, the voice of Bruce bouncing against Monte Monte Mario with an irreverent echoes of the hunting band, Trastevere and the bandana in travertine.
DINNER WITH LITTLE STEVEN
Sunday, July 19, 2009, Stadio Olimpico in Rome . First of three stages of the new Italian tour by Bruce Springsteen with the E Street Band, just one year after the monstrous Magic Tour Start at about 22, because of the combination of the world swimming scene in the adjacent Olympic Village. Concerto good but not epic, because of the long nerve-wracking waiting and bad acoustics. But as usual the boss is generous and between new and old warhorses and repechages surprise , send the stadium into a frenzy.
So much so that, in the wake of the exaltation of the night before, on Monday we spend chasing the band holed up in ' Hotel De Russie , a stone's throw from Piazza del Popolo.
Ed è così che, tra una fugace stretta di mano a Charlie Giordano e una pacca sulla spalla a Max Weimberg, un autista ci fa la soffiata: Bruce e Little Steven andranno a cena in un noto ristorante a Trastevere, dalle parti di Ponte Cestio.
Risultato: dopo aver battuto in lungo e in largo le numerose trattorie e pizzerie del quartiere tiberino, mia sorella ci dà la dritta che aspettavamo:
"Da quella vertina si vede un tipo con la bandana...".
Eccolo. Little Steven. E...Bruce?
L'insegna è quella dell' Osteria La Gensola .
Entriamo e veniamo accompagnati dal cameriere nella saletta interna, osservando di soppiatto la tavolata del chitarrista newyorkese alla ricerca di un suo look and, above all, his boss. None. Little is alone, with friends. But that's cool ... the same restaurant for dinner to Little Steven!
Frascati but ... I wanted to live the Montecompatri!
The dinner was excellent, the room lovely and very friendly staff.
More details, via a wonderful spaghetti with cheese and pepper and un'amatriciana to scream, remember them, this was the state of trance at the thought that probably a little later, I met a rock legend. But
me the name of the wine are listed on the phone. I asked a
Frascati Superiore but the sommelier, the owner's son, was able to trim another label with the blatant spontaneity that only the Romans and Neapolitans are able to have.
But I was fine, because I discovered a great white wine for a name I had not tasted: Montecompatri Doc Superiore "Roman Virtues" 2008, Tenuta Le Quinte .
captivating blend of all white grapes typical of Lazio, the dotted Malvasia, Trebbiano, and buxom Bonvino , is the nose with fragrant aromas of peach, honeysuckle, fresh herbs and almonds, driven by a delicate ethereal breath very seductive . Feelings that come back in a body placed in the mouth very fresh and good structure for a wine that invites you to the last sip and says goodbye con un appetitoso retrogusto fruttato e ammandorlato. In enoteca si trova a circa 10 euro, per una gradazione alcolica di 13,5%.
E Little Steven? Beh, addolcito dalla buona cena e sedotto dal vino romano, si è concesso per sigaretta e foto di rito, con tanto di battuta ironica quando gli abbiamo detto che l'indomani ci saremmo rivisti a Torino e, due giorni dopo ancora, a Udine.

A spasso per la Bussia
Ventuno ettari in Monforte d'Alba , con vista sulle vigne di Prunotto poco più in basso e, a voltar lo sguardo verso higher up the hill, the beautiful estate of Aldo Conterno , the company Bussia Soprana is one of the rare reality of quantity, as well as quality, land of Barolo. One hundred thousand bottles of Barolo year, produced from grapes of vines Colonel , Mosconi, Gabutti and Bussia , and numbers from the various large companies including Barbera, Dolcetto and Langhe Rosso Zenit, by Nebbiolo, Barbera and Cabernet Sauvignon. Just the topic of
cut was at the center of a heated debate between a visiting fellow in the company and Silvano Casiraghi, an entrepreneur since 1992, Monza holds Bussia Soprana.
Grant that even in a large single-varietal wines such as Barolo can finish a small percentage of other grapes in the vineyard finished the nursery maybe by mistake, it could make sense once more. Everyone feels entitled to collect the grapes and make wine all together. Today, the specifications do not allow even more that 5% margin, which in many cases, perhaps even tacitly reached 15-20%. "What happened to Montalcino Sangiovese" cut "merlot" reminds us Silvano.
Today, however, with the new electronic methods of recognition grapes in the vineyard, there is little to be clever. Either you adapt or you risk pilloried in the media.
why some as big as the same in Barbaresco Angelo Gaia, have chosen to create versions of the Langhe supertuscan , in which local and international grape varieties come together in products invisible to traditionalists but of undoubted quality.
tasting. But great Barolo Barbera!
When placed in the mouth and pour a sip of Barolo 2006, the youngest one on the market today, screwed up eyes and Casiraghi us a clue:
"Drink today 2006 is committing infanticide" . Exactly. The feeling is clear that I never committed a crime, as he took a sour apple in the Garden of Eden . The fact remains that it is all too obvious that this is a wine of enormous potential, and flies to the imagination when, in a few years, the tannins and acidity will be developed will be reduced to create an ideal environment to enhance all the infinite variety of flavor and scent typical of the grape. And find it surprising
still young and evolving, ten years after harvest. The 2000 , indeed gives a wine a little cranky and spigolosetto, although already a great personality.
The real pleasure starts from 1998 down. From 12-14 anni in avanti si può capire se un Barolo è degno del nome che porta. E i vari cru dell'azienda sono decisamente prodotti "a lungo termine". Potenti, strutturati, complessi ed eleganti, le migliori annate sono la 97-98-99, ma se abbiamo soldi e spazio in cantina la 2006 merita un investimento. Casiraghi giura che tra qualche anno sarà un vino fuori dal comune, figlio di una grande annata.
Noi ci fidiamo, ci lasciamo trasportare ad assaggiar l'uva matura tra i filari protetti da reti antigrandine garantite 15 anni, e ce ne torniamo in azienda per gli acquisti. Tutti si lanciano sul Barolo. Io no, con le poche finanze rimaste mi concedo qualche bottiglia della Barbera d'Alba Doc Mosconi 2007 bevuta a pranzo.
12 euro per bottle, is a magnificent example of how these parts of the casks and barrels barbera can come from God, although aged only in steel.

Puledro morellino
If there are doubts on the vine, as is always the toscanissimo Sangiovese (variety of "small", while in Montepulciano and Montalcino is the "big"), the origin of the name still being discussed . Morellino as the color of wine, deep ruby \u200b\u200bred (a bit 'as it did for its Brunello wine), or Morellino as race horses ridden by cowboys, the cowboys Maremma? When in doubt, I matched the red of Scansano, Grosseto product hinterland between the rivers and Albegna Ombrone, with the grilled fillet of foal.

"The Coordination Toscano NO NUKE presents 10 reasons to oppose nuclear power"
Sale anti-nuclear protest. Born a Tuscan Coordination of sixteen associations among the most active and well known in the area. Among the first joint initiatives have been produced a handbook of 10 good reasons and a document entitled "The many faces of nuclear power" which were presented this morning during a press conference, the presence of representatives of all member associations.
To support the ten reasons, in fact, there are not only environmentalists but also all the cultural, recreational and the Association of Doctors for the Environment, which share the alarm against the proposals that the National Government has indicated on 'nuclear energy.

1) Nuclear and oil - Nuclear power stations only electricity, which is less than one fifth of energy consumption in each country. The choice of nuclear power does not reduce dependence on oil: France produces 78% of electricity from nuclear energy, but we import more oil, and oil consumption per capita the highest in Europe.
2) Fuel - reserves of uranium are limited to current rates of consumption will be exhausted in a few decades, but if new power plants will be built will last less than its availability and the price will increase exponentially. In addition, the uranium market is dominated by a very small lobby, seven companies control 85% of world reserves and four companies supply 95% of enrichment services. In addition, Italy has no uranium and depend completely on others for its supply.
3) Costs - A realistic assessment of the costs of nuclear power must take into account not only the construction work but the entire life cycle with emphasis on the deferred costs due to storage of waste and the decommissioning of which not yet know the precise impact. Given the enormous costs of building nuclear power plants are not a matter for individuals to prevent receiving large subsidies from the state, as confirmed by the recent decision by Obama The construction of the first reactor French new-generation EPR in Finland (Olkiluoto) encountered great problems, which have already caused significant increases in costs and construction time. Despite this, and that there is no practical experience of their operation (the U.S. regulatory body has not even fired), ENEL would order at least 4!
4) Emissions of CO2 - The process of fission fuel in the reactor does not produce CO2 emissions, which are present in all other stages: extraction and processing of uranium, enrichment (l ' plant in Paducah, Ky., uses two coal-fired 1000MW), construction the plant (which requires huge amounts of concrete and steel) up to the stages of storage of nuclear waste and dismantling of the plant. In the extraction phase are associated with higher CO2 emissions: just think that to get 1 kg of uranium from an ore that has a degree of concentration of 0, 1% (world average is 0.15%) should be removed and work 1 tonne of ore. A rigorous calculation leads to the conclusion that the full nuclear cycle means lower emissions compared to today's power generation, but that will increase dramatically when you need to extract the uranium deposits from the poor. There are also concerns that because the 439 reactors in operation cover less than 6% of energy consumption worldwide, even if we build hundreds of new reactors would provide for a minimum contribution to the demolition of CO2, compared with investments of trillions in the few years that required the reduction of CO2, obviously incompatible with the global financial situation.
5) Health and safety - They accumulate scientific studies that show increases in childhood leukemia and other diseases in populations living around nuclear power plants. This clearly shows that radioactive discharges occur in the normal operation of the reactors, although officially they are hushed up. These are in addition to the frequent releases unavoidable accidents (often minimized or denied by the authorities), the sum other pollutants, and seriously damaging the health of the population: the tumors are growing, even the World Health Organization reports a worrying increase in the spread of cancer worldwide.
The third-generation reactors such as the EPR are proposed as a much safer, but security problems are emerging disturbing, officially reported October 22, 2009 by three European security agencies, which have required changes to the judging of the reactor control system inadequate to deal with an emergency situation. The Finnish Safety Authority has found discrepancies in the construction of 2,100 clearly EPR reactor at Olkiluoto and blocked i lavori.
6) Le scorie radioattive – Comprendono il combustibile esaurito e tutto ciò che è stato contaminato dalle radiazioni, cioè i materiali utilizzati per il funzionamento della centrale ed il reattore stesso, che a fine ciclo andrà smantellato.
Nessun paese ha ancora trovato una soluzione sicura al problema delle scorie, che devono essere custodite per tempi che possono raggiungere le centinaia di migliaia di anni. Si sono sviluppati invece traffici illegali per lo smaltimento nei paesi del terzo mondo, con un criminale risparmio sui costi e conseguenze sanitarie ed ambientali facilmente prevedibili.
I pur limitati programmi nucleari dell’Italia hanno lasciato inheritance in four power plants to be decommissioned, large quantities of radioactive waste drums, temporarily located within the central or sent abroad, with significant expenditure on housing and rents.
This remains an ongoing risk to the environment and health. In the general interest would be logical to address these problems, first consider the construction of new plants.
7) Nuclear civil and military - Nuclear technology is inherently dual-use: it is not possible to separate the civilian and military applications. All countries that have made the bomb passed through the construction of nuclear reactors. France has a powerful nuclear arsenal, which has absorbed the cost of civilian programs. The spread of nuclear programs in the world will undoubtedly increase the risk of proliferation military.
8) Italy needs nuclear power plants? - not true that Italy is forced to import electricity from France: the electric power installed in Italy in 2008 was 98,625 MW against a peak demand of 55,292 (all-time high was reached in 2007 with 56,822 MW), giving rise to greater excess among all European countries. But our electricity system has become increasingly inefficient with privatizations, and certainly would not be improved by investments in nuclear power stations. France "selling" electricity during the hours of falling demand, because the nuclear system is rigid and does not adapt to load variations, on the other hand, in times of exceptional demand peaks is forced to import electricity at a high price from neighboring countries.
9) reduce dependence on oil? - Energy dependence Italian has many other causes. We import almost all the oil that is used with great waste, in applications where they can not be replaced by nuclear power: about one third, for a totally unbalanced transport system on road transport e privato, buona parte per il riscaldamento di edifici costruiti senza isolamento termico, e altre importanti quote per attività produttive energivore, che producono male e in modo inefficiente.
10) Trasparenza, efficienza, democrazia nei lavori - La costruzione di centrali nucleari muove quantità enormi di capitali, in gran parte pubblici, ed un loro corretto utilizzo prevedrebbe l’esistenza di un sistema economico e politico di gestione degli stessi assolutamente trasparente.
Sappiamo bene che così non è e quanto sia frequente che intermediari senza scrupoli, (quando non addirittura la criminalità organizzata), si inseriscano nell’attribuzione degli appalti in maniera illecita. Infine, con l’entrata in vigore della Legge Sviluppo (luglio 2009), lo Stato potrà avvalersi dei poteri sostitutivi nei confronti delle Regioni in materia di energia (aspetto per cui molte Regioni hanno fatto ricorso), equiparando di fatto i siti scelti per le centrali alle aree militari d’interesse strategico. Con grave detrimento dei principi di partecipazione democratica nella condivisione delle localizzazioni.
2) Fuel - reserves of uranium are limited to current rates of consumption will be exhausted in a few decades, but if new power plants will be built will last less than its availability and the price will increase exponentially. In addition, the uranium market is dominated by a very small lobby, seven companies control 85% of world reserves and four companies supply 95% of enrichment services. In addition, Italy has no uranium and depend completely on others for its supply.
3) Costs - A realistic assessment of the costs of nuclear power must take into account not only the construction work but the entire life cycle with emphasis on the deferred costs due to storage of waste and the decommissioning of which not yet know the precise impact. Given the enormous costs of building nuclear power plants are not a matter for individuals to prevent receiving large subsidies from the state, as confirmed by the recent decision by Obama The construction of the first reactor French new-generation EPR in Finland (Olkiluoto) encountered great problems, which have already caused significant increases in costs and construction time. Despite this, and that there is no practical experience of their operation (the U.S. regulatory body has not even fired), ENEL would order at least 4!
4) Emissions of CO2 - The process of fission fuel in the reactor does not produce CO2 emissions, which are present in all other stages: extraction and processing of uranium, enrichment (l ' plant in Paducah, Ky., uses two coal-fired 1000MW), construction the plant (which requires huge amounts of concrete and steel) up to the stages of storage of nuclear waste and dismantling of the plant. In the extraction phase are associated with higher CO2 emissions: just think that to get 1 kg of uranium from an ore that has a degree of concentration of 0, 1% (world average is 0.15%) should be removed and work 1 tonne of ore. A rigorous calculation leads to the conclusion that the full nuclear cycle means lower emissions compared to today's power generation, but that will increase dramatically when you need to extract the uranium deposits from the poor. There are also concerns that because the 439 reactors in operation cover less than 6% of energy consumption worldwide, even if we build hundreds of new reactors would provide for a minimum contribution to the demolition of CO2, compared with investments of trillions in the few years that required the reduction of CO2, obviously incompatible with the global financial situation.
5) Health and safety - They accumulate scientific studies that show increases in childhood leukemia and other diseases in populations living around nuclear power plants. This clearly shows that radioactive discharges occur in the normal operation of the reactors, although officially they are hushed up. These are in addition to the frequent releases unavoidable accidents (often minimized or denied by the authorities), the sum other pollutants, and seriously damaging the health of the population: the tumors are growing, even the World Health Organization reports a worrying increase in the spread of cancer worldwide.

Vini Pellegrini: appunti da Villa Cavenago (2a parte)
We come to the whites and begin from our neighbor, or from that Soleste, particular blend of chardonnay, riesling and white Manzoni, which arose from the terraced vineyards of 'The Coast company Montevecchia , a precious corner of Tuscany suspended between Lecco and the Adda Milan .
fermented mostly in stainless steel with a small percentage that goes instead to the cask, the wine is then aged in oak barrels and part in part cement tanks, then a further year in bottle completes its maturation. When a
Claudia Crippa, young daughter of the owner Giordano, I ask for news of new locks and terraces that last fall, passing for a trip to mushrooms, I noticed the hills near the three farms - Costa, Escarpment Galbraith and Black - owned by the company, she fences promising: "yes but that's enough, this comes with 12 acres for a small company like ours are already more than enough" .
To come back to the wine "is, do you like?" .
Like, like indeed. Fresh and floral, part of the momentum with the yellow fruit of chardonnay and then make the right on the legacy of riesling also be perceived purposes and musky notes of flint. The barrel is there but does not weigh down a drink that holds well and becomes ever more intriguing taste after taste. Serve chilled but not cold, perhaps with a vegetable risotto or a plate of soft cheeses typical Montevecchia or even a Quartirolo Taleggio or the nearby Valsassina.
Sangiobbe of Pinot Noir, for which the company has put its major efforts in recent years looking for the best of the vineyards and refining the most effective techniques in the cellar, we'll talk later.
Now we go to taste the Vermentino of Sardinia ' company 6 Mura, newcomer to house pilgrims.
Vermentino Sardinia OR?
Together with the owner of the restaurant where I work we were looking for a Vermentino di Gallura DOCG then, good, typical and least known of the various Sella & Mosca and the like.
We told the nice taverners Sardinian and he proposed a riddle
"there do you have to try and guess which two and DOC Sardinia where the DOCG" .
Not easy, both excellent. I'll jump on the more structured.
"The Gallura is him."
"Right. But even that one. Vintages only change."
Fresh, fruity and floral, dry like the wind loaded with salt that beat the vineyards of the North Island and is rich in the Mediterranean dolceamare nuances that give it a unique character. Too bad for the bad graphics but the label peace. We found our Vermentino.
