How To Remove Stud With Round Backing?

against immoral earnings of the Board of IREN

of Giorgio Ricci *

Communist Refoundation brought to City Council in Montecchio Emilia, Monday, Oct. 18, the issue of hefty compensation awarded to directors of IREN. The agenda submitted by the PRC are considered to be immoral choices taken by the Board of Directors on remuneration of IREN President (500 000 Euros), Director (400 000 €), CEO (€ 470,000) and Vice-President (70 000 € ) and calling for a reduction of fees until equiparali to those receiving a Regional Council of Emilia Romagna (no more than 44 470 euro per year).

At a time like the present it is essential that the policy gives a strong signal to reduce its costs, proponents of the agenda and asked the Mayor, who along with other mayors of Reggio Emilia is a significant part of its public shareholders IREN, to serve as ambassadors.

It said that in early October, the Board had already voted for a paltry 10% of self-reduction of fees, as required by the majority of mayors of Reggio Emilia, among them the Mayor of Montecchio, but it was a planned reduction on an increase in fees by almost 50% compared to those received by the same directors before the merger Iris - Enia, ie, with an increase in fees "only" 40%, he makes little effort to look democratic by granting to give up a little slice!

sharing, hoped and expected, of advancing an agenda that demands sobriety had to overcome political divisions, has not reached if not in words, as too many other times we had to see, at the time of the vote, a majority confused and unprepared on the issues under discussion, did not have the courage to substantiate the sentences in concrete decisions and consequent actions. The agenda was then rejected after general allegations presenters to make easy demagogy on the economic difficulties of the citizens, and to put excessive restrictions the hefty fees, without considering that this could compromise the quality of essential service offered by the multi-utility.

We believe that the law - duty to control the public shareholders should be exercised, even more so in consideration of essentiality of services (electricity, gas, district heating, water services, environmental services), in a strict and uncompromising, not neglecting to acknowledge and act on the salaries of even an untouchable apparatus -
ruling caste.

Why Do I Get Heartburn From White Wine

Centrality of public school funding to private schools and

opening of the new school year Italy has woken up to the last place among the OECD countries, investment in public education, and after us there is only Slovakia and makes us better than even Brazil. In percentage terms, to make the idea, only 9% of our public spending is earmarked for the school, while the average of other OECD states is 13.3%.
for our province, this means: in less than 150 teachers in schools of all levels, increase class size, gradually reducing the time in primary school, from thirty to twenty-seven hours per week, in spite of the different demands of the families and despite all efforts, publicly took the minister to respect the choices expressed parents; fragmentation of hours of teachers, in order to cover hours not covered in chunks over several classes (in the face of the teacher only!) drastic reduction of administrative and technical support staff, with the result that some comprehensive schools fail to ensure supervision of children or minimum services for the proper functioning of schools, lack of funds for project activities and / or workshops that qualify the training offer.
All this while the Minister says it will draw, for her daughter, a better school (probably does not refer to the public!) And defines "social evil" all those who for decades have provided temporary operation of the public school every opening of the year, but everything goes as planned, school leaders have had any indication to appease protests of teachers and hold the parents, while the three-year plan to reduce jobs is inexorably making.
Let it be clear that this does not happen "in the absence of the Italians," as he likes to say Gherardo Colombo in his wanderings among the Italian schools, we must take direct responsibility for all what happens, because we wanted to, not only by voting but also failing, failing to vote, failing to attend, failing to train the young generations, the ball then passes to local administrations, the first interface between citizens and the State, we ask to meet the cuts imposed on public education, with compensatory resources (such as asking the same PD in those in which government was in opposition), not shirk its responsibility for dealing with the quality of public school Today more than ever, means reoccupation of our future, invest in securities, make antibodies.
The economic crisis, job losses have forced many families, the municipalities of the province, to give the school full time for the difficulties to cope with the lines of the table, as many have been and will be forced not to enroll their children to educational tours, sports or recreation courses, summer camps (for many, the only alternative to the road during the long period of closure of schools), do not take to heart all these situations, not to intervene with subsidies that qualify more time to stay in school and enhance the educational offer, not to increase educators in the face of cuts to support teachers, operated by the government, confirming the negative value means that culture is only for those who can afford it and if there is not really a school for all and for all. If all this happens without the local government tried to go for broke, we lost not only the best schools which have aroused the envy of the world-renowned educators, as well as everything that has been the result struggles, achievements, research, discussion, but most will have lost confidence in the future of the younger generation, confidence in the possibility of change and therefore participation. We're playing a generation, we believe that, today more than ever, it is necessary that the Administration intended to focus the resources of the school, the only public school, the only state affected by the cuts, moreover, if the cover is short must have the courage to choose which way to pull it!

MORATORIUM ON WATER MANAGEMENT!

calls to suspend the law Ronchi.

The Forum thanked the Italian movement of water and 1 million 400 thousand Italian citizens who signed the referendum questions.

This new reality appeal to all parties, all organizations and committees, the media, to all citizens who have supported and those who have fought a sincere appeal
Think of these people who have crowded the banquet and signed the questions!
are more than 4% of the electorate of our country and have placed their signature is not encouraged because of this or that party, nor to argue with either the consent to search for the other. They did not even clear to all parties.
No! The people of the banquet he understood that the battle for public water is the battle for life is a battle for access to a universal right is a battle to reduce consumption. These concepts are incompatible with any form of privatization. This banquet was the people across all i partiti.
Ha firmato per chiedere ai partiti di non sottrarsi al loro ruolo istituzionale,di non degradare la politica consegnandola ad una gara ed assumersi le responsabilità per le quali sono stati concepiti: gestire l'interesse generale, promuovere il bene comune.
Grave perciò sarebbe la colpa dei partiti e della classe politica se vanificassero questa aspettativa.
Il referendum va fatto e non va annullato da atti e adempimenti che lo pregiudicano.
Vi chiediamo pertanto
1° Una doverosa MORATORIA alla legge Ronchi ed alla soppressione degli Ambiti territoriali come atto del Parlamento per garantire ai cittadini di potersi esprimere attraverso la consultazione elettorale, anche a fronte del rischio di elezioni anticipate.
Le scadenze imposte dalla legge per la messa a gara entro il 31 dicembre 2010 di alcune situazioni e il dicembre 2011 per altre, e della soppressione degli ATO come organi di decisione da parte dei Comuni sui modelli di affidamento, vanno posticipate a dopo il referendum e localmente vanno fermate tutte quelle iniziative che predispongono l'ingresso dei privati nelle società.
Fermate il “gioco”, lasciate che i cittadini possano esprimersi ed esprimetevi voi, con chiarezza. Non fate calare una cortina di silenzio sui temi posti dal referendum e sopratutto non mistificatene i contenuti.

2° Un confronto serio senza menzogne.
Sarebbe bene si cessasse di sostenere, a partire dal ministro Ronchi, che non è in implementation of any privatization of water and then the referendum is devoid of any logic because the property is public and only the management is privatized.
Once it is clear that for all of us and with us all the worldwide movement for public water right we are fighting against the privatization of management, we are fighting from Bolivia to Italy, from Paris to Manaus, Belgium, the U.S. etc ... against all attempts to deliver water services to the market and in the hands of corporations like Suez and Veolia.
The United Nations General Assembly, acknowledged this year that "drinking water is a fundamental right, essential for the full enjoyment of the right to vita e di tutti i diritti dell’uomo” ed ha rivolto l’invito agli Stati ed alle Organizzazioni internazionali a fornire tutte le risorse finanziarie. Il Governo Italiano ha sostenuto con il proprio voto favorevole questa risoluzione.
In coerenza con questo impegno il Governo italiano deve quindi garantire attraverso la fiscalità generale il diritto all’acqua e conseguentemente la possibilità di una gestione pubblica. L’obbligo della messa a gara della gestione dell’acqua che espropria i Comuni della possibilità di decidere coni cittadini i modelli di gestione, imposto dal decreto Ronchi va cancellato.

Questo è quanto vogliamo e su questo vogliamo confrontarci.

Non crediamo dobbiate think like us and like a million citizens signed. Ask that all political forces and the Parliament to listen to the thought of Italian citizens.
Do not ignore them.
