Antiques, pizza and ice-cream

Last week had been busy: I was working on a big chandelier project, and having to figure out, how to proceed. Furthermore, I had to clean and treat a wardrobe against woodworms, which took about two days. The end of the week I then spent by visiting antique shops, and chatting with the dealers, as well as trying to sell some stuff. On Friday I was lucky, and found a used modern bookshelf: „Bookworm“ by Ron Arad, and which I will be able to display and sell in a shop for used furniture and items from the fifties and antiques. Also, I was able to make contact with a sales woman for antique jewelry: We will make a sales excibition with my „Trifari“ jewelry, in her shop, very soon. Over the weekend, I had been suffering from a nasty flu, but today I am feeling a bit better, and am seeming to recover gradually.

And as the weather was hot, and the appartement too warm to work, I didn't feel like going into Internet, and checking my emails, to answer some possibly new emails.

There are still moving goods scattered all over the rooms, and not everything is in its place. My office was divided in two places, partly in the living room, and partly in the sleeping room, and that fact didn't invite me to do some office work, neither.

However, today, as I am starting to get back some strength and energy, thanks to having had a lot of rest and green tea, and relaxing by reading some older copies of „AD / Architectual Digest (thirty volumes in Italian language), I moved my office into the sunnier room, onto, and around the dining table, displaying the suspension file unit, and other documents, as well as the laptop and a study lamp, etc.

So, sorry, once again, for my late response, and thank you, for your understanding, that it is just now, that I am catching up with office work and my duties.

I do miss Geneva very much, everytime I have to leave there, but on the other side, working at home, isn't possible there, but is is here in Italy. Also, there are a lot of chanllenges here, and niches to fill up, within the market of modern and antique furniture / antiques. Nevertheless, I am also enjoying the good things, here, as well. I know, where to get the best pizza, and the best ice-cream..., and where to meet interesting and nice people, who share some of the same interests.

Geneva rocks!

If you love antiques and belle epoque architecture, Louis Phillipe and Napoleon III. stile, as well as history, then Geneva is the place to be.
But that is not enough: In Geneva you find the most attractive women. In Geneva you find the most friendly and helpful people. It is the most human place on earth. It is the place, where love is permanetly in the air, and in every heart of every inhabitant.

Geneva is a fantastic town, if you make a little effort to speak and understand some French.

You can get nearly everything, except accomodation for a reasonable monthly rent.

I furthermore I see Geneva, as a town, that has awaked again, and has a very special and fascinating new spirit.

Geneva is not really Swiss, but it is really Geneva, a very unique place on earth, a heaven for city ciclists and men who like women. And sure, for women, as well.

Geneva rocks!

Zuhause arbeiten

Glücklich ist der, der Zuhause arbeiten kann, weil er die räumlichen Bedingungen dafür hat.

Genügend Platz und Licht, und Ruhe schaffen optimale Arbeitsbedingungen.

Und umso besser, wenn man viele Pflanzen, sowie Aussicht auf Parks und Bäume hat. Grün beruhigt und tut gut.

Ich hab das alles, und des Weiteren, kann ich auch barfuss auf einem Holzparkett gehen.

Ich habe fast Alles. Also, es reicht zumindest.

In der grossen und hellen Küche, könnte ich ein Malattelier einrichten..., die neuen Lampen für die Küche, habe ich bereits: Drei Stück, je 150 Watt. Halogenlicht, muss es dann sein.

Genisse den Tag, denn er ist auch dein Tag.

Ich wohne schön

Schöner wohnen ist eine künstlerische Tätigkeit, und ist somit Kunst.

Eine Voraussetzung für Freiheit, ist schöner wohnen.

Your Spirit, dein Geist und deine Seele brauchen Platz und Raum, um zu sein.

Licht und Farben zum Leben...

Ruhe zum Leben.

Allein sein, kann schön sein. Niemand ist einsam, mit Kunst, Literatur, Musik, Kultur, etc.

Enfin, und wieder lebe ich, und bin frei, in einer Welt der vielen Unfreiheiten, in einer Welt der permanenten Versklavungen. Denn Kommerz, führt entweder zur Verskavung deiner selbst, oder von Anderen, oder ermöglicht deine Freiheit, oder diejenige von Anderen.

Zurück zur Freiheit, und Selbstliebe / Eigenliebe.

Leben ist nur Leben, wenn das Leben meistens schön ist.

Degas

Es gibt nirgendswo mehr Vielfalt, als in den Pastellzeichnungen von Degas.

Ospedale maggiore TRIESTE.

It is clear, is dated 1833 and the whole image costruzioe wants to give the spirit with which the directors of the time they wanted news that was experienced this was not the usual hospital conversion of convents, the workhouse and the like, when not barracks.

The city felt that a hospital was indispensable for a proper living and therefore it was important to set a service that would match the ambitions and the economic potential of a city that was started in an almost explosive development.

Notice how the very presence of the families walking with children, or dog without a bun or just to chat and just walking, not all appear in the vicinity of the place of pain and pleading prayers, but Serena share what happens behind that row of trees are still young and will grow, not to hide, but to revive, to bring the city more "guests" not to patients.

And here's a few years later, the trees have become a real garden city of Trieste which is extremely poor and then Square Hospital is in the center, slightly apart, but their attack on the hilly area, the most noble families that traditions, but not isolated from the rest of the city.

In addition to villas and houses on Via Rossetti is also a whole series of cases that now call popular and are certainly lived in an orderly fashion, but remember we are talking about the overall structure of a cttà sea, large businesses and start-up activities not only commercial but also industrial.

The "boat", I remember the first time going by train from Trieste and Imola, and listening to the speeches of the "Mariner" who were in temporary relief from the ports of Taranto and Naples struck me this affectionate name given to the beasts by hundreds of passengers and equal men's team when I saw them docked at the Maritime Station, there is discipline, even harsh, but there is also the awareness that one's life is entrusted to the capacity and reliability of all. In the same shop, although there is above all the reliability and honesty of the accounts carefully. Even in yards and in the industries of shipbuilding and mechanics arrived there is no room for numbers, but there is room for people, for people and their individual capaità yet exquisitely, almost homemade.

Will then be the time when people no longer matter, the political games will count against Genoa Trieste, when the smart political Ligurian will defend their interests by leading a good policy for the whole of the triangle Genova Lombardy Piedmont, leaving the flags and Trieste hatred eternally on the edge, however unjust, and industries will follow slowly to the course of many companies in the state and to save more than professionalism and market presence, will become the place for small ras union of whites intent on protecting their own and to marginalize those Part reddish too similar to the hated "stiavi.

But back to the hospital, now Major, but then very simply and the hospital, then there were others, the sanatorium Triestino, the Burlo Garofalo etc. all with their good and specialization in areas not too far apart to allow mutual intersection. Then, later, much later, of course, comes the monstrous structure Cattinara, placed in a context of public buildings hallucinating, hallucinating and cement, where maybe we should apply the recent decision of Moscow has given free hands to the Writers to give color and humanity to something totally indigestible.

Seen in this way this hospital is almost pleasant with intelligent species first floor of some trees, located a few miles as the crow flies and gives the impression of a block efficient and even elegant, architecturally pleasing. Maybe one of them an overview from Google maps, if any of the kind visitors captures and puts it in a comment, would give a more realistic view.

Of course, and it says the site mentioned above, there are ongoing restructuring at both the Major Cattinara that also because the fate of Major long-term care and just a bit 'of surgeries forced most of Trieste in Fantastic Voyage, where the city, or oceanic flight if done through the connections that have to circumnavigate the whole city to subside finally close on arrival.

When I arrived in 1954 that, had the classic appearance of many of the hospitals that I see year after 25 years working with a company of hospital supplies and turning the whole of Italy from Sicily to the northern border, West and East Androni Dick, corridors very large but still ongoing transformation corridors designed to enable the passage of stretchers in and out of the operating rooms and various rooms and rooms for clinics, doctors, nurses, kitchens, toilets and visitors and tends to surround those in some how they had ended there, in that way you go, now useful only in those plaster to create dust, their existence could then be transferred to the mortuary area for all the requirements of the case.

We will resume the discussion on the aspects that were important to the boy, the liveliness of the relationship, the bed partners of varying ages and experience, kindness and a smile and the availability not only of nurses but also pesonal physician. I like to remember, as a starter, an episode that made us all laugh, 40/50 beds neatly scap-lane corridor in the center with the surgical room. That day, we knew there was a sharp amputation of a leg, and when the nurse came out strong from those ports supporting a sheet folded several times into something typical form, they heard a loud greeting and warning "and pulp Hogi par tuti.

New .tel features and applications on the .tel Control Panel:

Image TelAds - done:
Support for image-based adverts on .tel pages.
Owners of .tel domains can now embed links to image-based adverts, through the use of open APIs or third party services supporting these records, providing more visual imagery to enhance their templates, display their products or add banner-type advertising links to generate click-through revenue.

"Image-based adverts bring with them a number of benefits to the .tel community," said Henri Asseily, CTO and Chief Strategist at Telnic. "Not only does this expand the potential for generating revenue from advertising on .tel domains, it also enables .tel owners to enhance the overall look-and-feel and provide greater personalization through visual images. Now, anyone with a flair for the creative can add their own imagery to reflect their personality, products and promotions, whilst still keeping to the spirit and purpose of the .tel vision of frictionless sharing of contact information."

Image-based adverts will be displayed on both desktop and smart phone templates, depending on the choice and preference of the .tel owner. Later in 2011, this functionality will be built into the web-based control panel to enable any .tel owner to create this type of content.

Additional functionality will be added to .tel throughout the course of 2011, including new measurement and monetization solutions.

Over 300,000 registrations from in excess of 180 countries is driving awareness of .tel as a simple contact solution under the control of the owner and a cost-effective solution for both generating revenue and winning new business.
