The best satisfactions in science …

… come not with results. They come when results are confirmed. Happiness is … how I feel *now*! Happy weekend to everybody out there!

Be an environment-friendly shopper: don’t buy tetra pack!

Those days I’ve been a perfect cleaning gentleman, as my wife was somewhere else. Thus, I could have the ABSOLUTE control on our flat, as I had to do everything by myself. I could picture out which materials goes to the waste incinerator close to the city (and possibly back into our lungs/water). Here in Switzerland we can recycle practically everything:

- PET plastic bottles
- Metal and aluminum cans
- Glass bottles and jars
- Paper and carton
.. even the kitchen waste is used to prepare compost in the garden.

What I could NOT recycle in addition to the plastic films around meat and sausages or the thin plastic bags for vegetables/fruits was: the oddly stupid tetra pack. Tetra pack is made out of plastic, aluminum and carton. These three layers are really good pressed together: don’t ask me please to separate them! From now on I will buy juices and milk only in glass or PET.

P.S. I know in some countries like U.K. tetra pack can be recycled … but in Switzerland?

The power of EM2008 …

… and the power of football in general. It is really really strong! If I were you I would check which new laws your government approved during the European Championship of football …

Un Italiano d’Egitto indica la nuova direzione al (Bel) Paese Scaduto

Non solo un politico come Antonio di Pietro, un comico come Beppe Grillo e un giornalista come Marco Travaglio. A mettere i bastoni fra le ruote all’illuminato governo Italiano ci si mette d’ impegno anche il videblogger Claudio Messora con il suo byoblu.com . Claudio Messora con i suoi video immediati, il linguaggio coinvolgente e la capacita’ di accattivarsi il target che si e’ ritrovato (suo malgrado) a vivere nel Bel Paese Scaduto.

Riporto piu’ sotto un link al suo ultimo intervento non solo perche’ cita un messaggio lasciatogli da Loranablog, ma anche per fare da (seppur piccola) cassa da risonanza a un’idea che non posso che condividere, ovviamente

Leggete qui il suo intervento e aiutate, Italiani all’ estero. Informate i vostri amici che vivono in Italia come la loro vita potrebbe essere molto migliore se al governo ci fossero e ci fossero state persone capaci di governare! Informateli per svegliarli! Informateli per far tornare il Bel Paese !

Brunnistöckli with Checco

Checco76 (.wordpress.com) came to visit us this wonderful sunny weekend in Switzerland. He got the best moment to experience with us the deadly and damn difficult “via ferrata” on the 2000 something meters of the Brunnistöckli! Two shaky Tibetan bridges were not enough to stop our heroes A really wonderful day. The pictures? Look on the right blog column a little bit down and click on the new “Brunnistöckli set” of FlickR pictures (or just click HERE for the direct link)

Watch me naked and help me paying back my car

In Italy (again), a young teenager sold her naked pictures via MMS to buy D&G bags and Gucci T-shirts. How primitive! She sold her body to buy fashion products. I would never do it. In fact, I will show you my one and only naked picture to help me paying back the 2100 CHF I spent to get my car repaired. Click on the censored image, enjoy the sexy view and donate something to Paypal

Money donated until now: 0.- CHF/2100,55 CHF

The 409,497th blog in the world is: LORANABLOG

Even if the EM2008 took away half of the audience, LoranaBlog goes on climbing the Technorati rank list and places itself on the wonderful 409,497th position. Around the globe are 15,5 millions of active blogs. That means, Loranablog is in the first 2,64% of the whole blog community. Not bad, not bad

My wife, where are thou?

Do you remember the last time you found police useful?

Let me think.

In Italy:

- Police arrived after 2 hours (!) we had an accident: we had to stay 2 hours on the lane.
- I got a fee because I parked where was forbidden
- I got a fee because I entered a traffic restricted zone (I didn’t see the signal)
- One police jeep bumped in the rear of my car and broke the rear lights
