In Rome, the triumphal funeral of a mafia boss go wrong


Heads begin to roll: Helicopter pilot is suspended after flying low over Rome dropping flower petals at a 'mafia' boss’s lavish funeral – complete with The Godfather music – while the city’s mayor is under pressure to resign




The helicopter pilot who flew low over Rome to drop petals during the Hollywood-style funeral of a 'mafia boss' has had his licence suspended.
Hundreds of tearful mourners paid their final respects to Vittorio Casamonica, 65, whom police said was a leader of the Casamonica clan - but the ostentatious scenes, complete with horse-drawn carriage and theme music from The Godfather, infuriated many observers.
Today, Italy's civil aviation authority suspended the licence of the helicopter pilot and the beleaguered city mayor has come under renewed pressure to resign.

I would like to add still this, regarding to what happened in this Thalys train: When this country wonders about the fact that mean being a French citizen, when the upholders of the jus sanguinis and those of the jus soli oppose, if i was the President of the French Republic, i would give immediately the status of Honorary Citizen to these two American soldiers. I don't care to know where was born this one, I don't care to know who were the ancestors of that one. White, black, yellow, red or rainbow, whatever we come here from, to be a Frenchman is first to be a citizen. Chérif and Saïd Kouachi, the two killers of Charlie Hebdo, are French, born in France. Their papers say it. Well, their papers, i wipe my ass with. For me, these "people" are not French and will never be so. What they did, i consider myself as at war against it. Alek Skarlatos and Spencer Stone, the two heroes of the Thalys, are American, born in the United States. Their papers say it. And well, i don't care also about their papers. For me, these two men are French, and will remain so. I consider themselves as my brothers in arms.

That’s all.

Yes, what a shame for Italy. Again and again a shame. Everyday a different shame. Vittorio casamonica was the boss of Sinti (Gipsy) mafia. And again authorities said WE DIDN'T KNOW.
Shame.

Using data from the government agency Geoscience Australia, Canadian artists Orbital Mechanics conducted a mapping of 2153 nuclear explosions that took place from 1945 to today. They are categorized into several colors: red for air, ground yellow and blue for that which was carried out under water. A fascinating achievement that allows us to better understand the geopolitical context of the world since the Second World War.

The Canadian company Kelp Caviar sells food sphere-shaped for 3 years. The demand for more and more of its customers has inspired the company to design a gadget that allows home cooks to turn their food into small edible pearls like the greatest chefs.



The widget uses a sphérification known technique, it is a cooking method for transforming a liquid into spheres like caviar or beads. The company behind the device says that using reverse spherification, it is possible to produce pearls with a liquid center. This technique is usually performed by top chefs using syringes and pipettes.
