Where Can I Get A Jirachi

special envoy Francesco Crispi in Eastern Europe

in 1968, was published a volume in the types of Edizioni Internazionali (Rome) entitled "Special Envoys of the five continents" which contained the writings of 44 Italian journalists.
The band that accompanies the volume read, in fact, "Around the world with 44 journalists."

The Edited by Franco La Guidara that journalist himself (but also a writer and playwright), at the time, had started out as a special envoy with the "Courier" and the "Messenger", was the second of a triptych of works . The
Guidara explained in his introduction:

We started the series with Special Envoys in peace and war ", we continue now with Special Envoys on five continents" and we are preparing to publish names and always different reportages, the third volume Special Envoys of yesterday and today ".
(...) ... just not on the merit or seniority professional to determine presence of a name the first, second or third volume or those to come.
(...) Of special envoys in the leg, in Italy we have some good numbers. In fact, the Italian journalism is considered a top position in the world for the ability of these "rogue pens, which are not limited to cold draw profiles posted, but write with clarity, penetrating and controlled, sometimes biting, often with that ' acuity and sensitivity that they honor the Italian journalism.

The book, like others in the series, presented with intent anthologies. This
in particular (the second of the series) contained a piece for each of the 44 journalists selected, each of which was preceded by a bio-bibliographical note.
My father was represented in this volume, written with a result of a trip to Romania (completed in 1966), entitled "Romania too would have its De Gaulle (pp. 73-76).
This article was part of a series of others that my father wrote in his report from Eastern Europe, particularly Czechoslovakia, Poland and Romania, as a result of three journeys made between September 1965 and the de November 1966. And, in fact, there appears as a chapter dedicated to Romania, under the title "Two Volga four Chinese".
Many of these reports were published on the third page of the Giornale di Sicilia and Successive were collected and expanded into a larger volume of breath, published by Flaccovio in 1967, entitled "New Frontiers for Europe", as part of the series "Stories, surveys, documents."
My father, a convinced European, he chose these three countries "Eastern" Even in the hard years of the Iron Curtain, to search for evidence of an evolution in the direction of flow and direction of a new Europe, certainly more unified and inclusive.
My father traveled a lot: those on the East were not his own reportage. Taking to heart the vision of a more united Europe, made many other trips in the major European capitals, from which he drew inspiration for other reports which were all published in the Giornale di Sicilia.
I remember in particular one who wrote about London and England, because it would be accompanied by some photos that I took in my trip to London co. The report
captivated my father, because backstage at each of them was always a trip to be organized, new people to meet and discuss.
If this was what was normally based in the cultural context in which it was operating normally, exerting to better his skills as a facilitator and catalyst of culture, the size of the trip gave his deep curiosity about the things of the world to deploy the best, giving at the same time, his restless spirit and breath and the need to tramp interior dimensions to explore new and unprecedented challenges dialectics.

This collection of stories of Flash Gordon ...

To my father I have the taste of many things he taught me to appreciate: I brought something new, meeting old wishes he had not been able to make a child, or because c ' was something new that attracted him.
When I was young (maybe around ten years) my father bought me a series of great comic books (the format is unusual: the pages were square) and beautifully designed in full color.
It was fantastic stories of Flash Gordon, created by the pen of the great comic artist Alex Raymond.
It was one of those comics that, at the time of twenty years, had been banned because expression of the worst "plutocracy" American favorite (almost by edict of the state) to our most homemade Dick Lightning.
There is no doubt that my father bought this new edition (proposed by the foma Nerbini in facsimile, as I learned later) because, first, liked him. But I was simply enchanted.
We see again and enchanted for hours. At times, reading carefully the text (which after a while 'I had learned by heart), sometimes simply by rolling her eyes were beautiful colored plates.
It speaks of extraordinarily adventures Flash Gordon and his girlfriend Dale Arden, who fled from an Earth in jeopardy as a cosmic catastrophe with the rocket built by Dr. Zarkov and luckily landed on the planet Mongo, inhabited by different peoples and exotic monsters and fantastic animals. Stories of swashbuckling, with plenty of seasoning "fantasy" as they say today, lush stories, able to stimulate the imagination, and seasoned by the love affair between Gordon and Dale continually undermined by the wicked. Crescendo is considered to be grown, with a ritual of destruction (a real rite of passage homemade), I got rid of a striking all comics that I refer to the period before.
Repentance immediately after arrival, but the irreparable damage was done: it had been destroyed, shredded, torn to pieces could not go back.
Years later, however, failed again to find that collection of Flash Gordon, once again edited by the publisher Nerbini again in facsimile form.

Flash Gordon is a fictional character, protagonist of the science fiction comic strip, created by Alex Raymond and published for the first time January 7, 1934. S
Tampere on the boards of the Sunday newspapers, his drawings were very elaborate and captions were frequent in order to extend the reading.
strip were drawn from numerous films and television.

It tells the adventures of Flash Gordon and his friends, Dr.. Hans Zarkov and the lovely Dale Arden. The story begins with the invention by Dr.. Zarkov of a space rocket, with which the three - to escape from a catastrophe that is coming down to Earth - a journey that takes them on the mysterious planet Mongo.
The planet is inhabited by different peoples, some technologically advanced, which were submitted by the evil tyrant Ming. The three land come into contact with Prince Barin, legitimate ruler of Mongo, and discover that it was banished with his followers - including Ming's daughter, Aura, Barin's wife - and confined to the wooded realm of Arborio.
Flash, Dale and Hans then join the fight to regain the throne Prince Barin.

The years of "Time"

My father was for some years the Managing Editor of "Time," the newspaper from Palermo in the afternoon, for years, has set itself the antagonist of "Il Giornale di Sicilia" , while maintaining all the features of the daily afternoon offering previews of the news and events of political life with the timeliness that could never have a morning newspaper.
Today, with the development of information media, with the speed of radio-tlevisione, but especially with the advent of the Internet and updates in real time, the function of newspapers throughout the afternoon and sunset.
But then - we speak of the 50s and 60s - had its own reason for being. M
father that I - journalistically - had cut his teeth - with other experiences - even the editor of other newspapers - assumed - with the enthusiasm and seriousness that distinguished him - the direction of "Time".
During his leadership, the property sold to the Communist Party newspaper. My father, in his political convictions, while giving priority to cross-cultural values \u200b\u200b- was socialist faith, when to be Socilista still meant something, and in any case, it came from "pictures" of the political mess.
his style was practicing a pure form of journalism, pollution from negotiations and political compromise, and - basically - was on the side of the "Truth" and values \u200b\u200bof our culture, not the party of truth. The first act of the new owners was to create a political figure's co-director, who accompanied my father in his capacity as Managing Director.
The choice fell on the PCI Vittorio Nisticò.
course, or do not know the background, nor create a climate that was then in preparation. My father was able to establish relations of civil courtesy and tolerance with all colors of which he knew always appreciate the intelligence and cultural skills.
These were the values.
But this period of "co-management" of the news was particularly hard for him.
What can I say, simply arguing, and that what happened in the name of respect for the party line that had the property of the head, from the beginning there was a major interference in his duties as Managing Director, a sort of war Chafing
My mother tells me that he, at that time, he became very nervous and touchy, and expressing his being, sleeping less and less and smoking one cigarette after another.
was the period that came to consume more than forty cigarettes per day (and his favorite brand was the National unfiltered: Do you remember the green package with the caravel in black? Quelle).
was always with a lighted cigarette in his hand, or hanging from his lips in the manner of Humphrey Bogart.
Then, at last, the battle (which he had not chosen to fight, because he wanted only to do his job well), was lost and he left and decided to look for another place to carry out his rare qualities of intellectual and man .

When my father died prematurely, in his coffin was placed (Because it corresponded to a wish expressed in his life) a copy of the first issue of Time came out with his signature of Managing Director.

It's a little 'wrong Nisticò Vittorio stated that, in a few days ago was celebrated in the memory of a day of study, entitled "The Time Nisticò (1955-1975)" in its by memories of the years of "Time", It happened in Sicily. The Roaring Twenties "L'Ora" di Palermo (Sellerio, Palermo), has disposed of the previous leadership (my father) in just one line and a half, with a careless step, as if "Time" was started with him and that everything that had gone before did not matter.

would have been nice - and generous - good book to read as a tribute to Nisticò more complex, partly because my father was a person - and a professional - a great intellectual honesty and certainly did not deserve to be quashed with forgetting.
