BLACK COLOUR IS GOOD FOR ADOLESCENTS !!!
In western society we do always avoid to dress children with black colour, because it reminds us the colour of mourning, death, suffering… Their dress is always made with joyful colours, and we almost pretend it’s for them, to make them feel positive to life…
Well, I suppose it’s especially for us adults, and against bad luck: children may like black, but you can rarely find it in any dressing or educational outfit.
Have we asked them if they would like to have a black T-shirt? Anyway not any mother would like to see her baby dressed in black!
Till now I can remember children dressed in black only at carnival :only the witch, the doctor, Darth Vader… and now even Spiderman has a “dark side” (one red, one black!) . The only good one is Zorro, as an exception, the first step to think of black, to think of action in the society…
I’ve learnt that the desire of adolescents to suddenly dress in black is the “mourning of their childhood”… well I think it’s really different, it’s their declaration to us that they want to try to play as adults with the colour that we have avoided them to use… but only as a GAME yet!
Effectively IT’S THE PARENT’S MOURNING of his son’s childhood, but for the adolescent IT’S THE beginning o f the “PARTY OF REAL LIFE”.
And HALLOWEEN is the moment where all children are allowed to dress awful.
Attentive and intelligent parents,( far from our modern and technological society!) the Celtic parents, let their children at least once pretend to be awfully dangerous and black, and face Death, dressing its outfits… and parents dressed too (as it happens now) and laughed, maybe bitterly, but silently, not to influence the children to grow up and go away. Which is the hardest sacrifice for a parent, a decent one.
Everywhere, in ancient world cultures, BLACK and DEATH are often used in stories and dances.
To immunize, strengthen, and not to fall in the dangerous hole of fear, attachment, control, excessive safety manners…
(This is my own personal opinion according to my studies and contacts with life-experiences of the adolescents’)

Prix Nobel Littérature 2008 "Le Clézio"
What's new...with Nobel Litterature 2008
A man that writes and wants us to know how everyday life really is where we don't know... no magic, no cult, no wonderful images from a no-where land; magic is under the petals of a flower, as well as violence, as torture, as dreams, as deceptions...The "there-place" is always attracting to us, but we generally know what superficial culture, made of money, and travel agents, want us to know... we think it to be so different from ours; yes, under some aspects it may be, but the blood of it, the substance has the same flavour as our everyday life, and sometimes it's more "spicy"... or even "bitter", though enrobed with laughs, smile, childish happiness.We think to our life, every moment, and often we forget there are billions of lives around us on the globe.Well, good news then, someone has pointed out the hidden faces of life... we're not "alone"!

What's new... with Caesar?
In italiano, questa volta, in onore della sua terra natale, Roma.
Giulio Cesare era teso, stanco e ammalato gli ultimi anni prima della morte, lo rivela una statua datante 2051 anni trovata nel letto del fiume Rodano in Francia, vicono ad Arles. Come viene segnalato dalle riviste scientifiche che se ne sono interessate, “E’ un’opera sconvolgente per il realismo di questo ritratto di Cesare, dove traspaiono la sua immensa stanchezza, ma anche la sua clementia, cioè l’umanità di chi sapeva perdonare”(Scientific American).
Calvizie, rughe di espressione e di età, sorriso ironico-amaro… sono tutti segni che L:Long ha individuato come sintomi di un malessere interiore, poiché era, pare, stanco della vita.
Era stato un generale (imperator) iperattivo, ma gli ultimi cinque durissimi anni della sua vita hanno plasmato il suo volto in una maschera di dittatore stanco (Pour la Recherche).
Ed io che credevo fosse un super-uomo, tenace, potente, freddo… come ce lo mostrano le statue recenti disseminate in Italia…
Ci penso… era solo un uomo, geniale, ma sempre e solo un essere umano, come noi, oggi, costretti ad una vita iperattiva che ci stressa e ci stanca…
Mi è molto più vicino e simpatico adesso!

What's new... with oxygen?
Do we all know that under us there is a deep mantle of silicon and oxygen, from 70 kms to 2900 kms, very close to the core? Well I knew that plants were at the origin of our oxygen, but at this depth there are no plants! Where does it come from? Did we ask and even try to find the solution? Well, the comet that may have struck earth millions of years ago, leaving a deep hole under India (still present) must have lightened the core of the earth, with its oxygen...
So, why don't we try to find a way to use it? There must be millions and millions of molecules, and even re-creating daily!!!
What do you think of this weird news?
Any suggestions might be the best ones!!! Just try!

what's new...with the moon?
The front side on the moon is just a bit... radioactive; much more than the dark side!
That's what we learn from the scientific centers: there is a high presence of Thorium on the front side and at this distance we should not be in danger; however everybody knows that during full-moon days too many people feel a bit "different", I mean, nervous, sad, energetic, or even too "electric", as it was told in the past for the people transformed in wolves, and witches getting crazy...
Well I never could think it was just because of the sea tides, it was so illogical. Now I can easily suppose that the light of the sun reflecting the front side of the moon, might bring to the earth thousands of particules of thorium that hit us and transformes our physical and thus psychological stability.
What do you think about it?
Don't be afraid, of course I could be a whitch, but there's no full-moon at the moment, so there's no danger to give your opinion...!
