Italy has facing a really hard time, day by day the situation gets worse and soon or later it'll fall down!
What's on?
Let's proceed with order, first the rubbish crisis in Campania is still unsolved, people keep on refusing incinerators or dump sin their backyards, at the moment Naples is being cleaned up but we haven't found any final solution yet.
We are sending our rubbish to other Italian regions and German, the incinerator in Acerra is still under construction and our unqualified politicians are arguing which the best solution is.
It seems they want to reopen some old and dismissed dumps in Campania but the local people don't want, because they are responsible for a number of cancer cases.
Secondly Mastella family is under the fire, first only Clemente Mastella (Minister of justice) was at the centre of "why not" investigation by De Magistris, but the smart minister saved his skin by making De Magisitris snatched away.
Then it has been the turn of Mastella 's relatives, both his wife and brother in law who have been arrested, at the moment, no one knows anything about the accusations laid against them however Clemente Mastella decided to resign because he said I have to stay near my family in this nasty and sad moment.
Consequence of Mastella's decision, Romano Prodi our prime minister has been forced to resign and we have an interim government whose goal is to reform electoral rules and then will vote again.

Clear report of our disastrous situation...
I have a canadian friend who's been living in Stockholm for years and after i tried to explain him the same things you wrote in this post, he told me that, in his opinion, it isn't so uncommon to find "Mastella's affaires" in Sweden too...
I'm not sure I've been able to tell him properly what happened concerning our former minister...
:-/
Thank you again for your advices!
I used to use (mmm... I will never get used [eheh] to all the repetitions english speakers have in their sentences!!) Firefox, but now I have a new "new computer" (it means that i bought a new computer which started to show big big problems after a couple of days i had it at home, so I brought it back to the shop and they gave me a new new one!)and I haven't installed Firefox on it yet... Anyway Blogger has a function for spelling corrections i had never used it before though... I think it's time to start using it as it seems many of my mistakes simply come from being absent-minded!
Don't worry for the "expecting" thing, i had understood anyway: it's one of those things which I perfectly know when I read or hear someone but I completely forget when I write!!!
cheers!!
S.
Sorry!!
I made one of my usual mistakes!
When I'm in front of a computer i think I turn into Goofy!
Anyway i came back and posted a question i forgot to ask in the first comment: what did you mean with the question, concerning "nationer", "do they rice each other?"?
... ...
A bit ashame I have to confess i don't think i've understood well!
^_^
Ciao!
S.
A minister like Mastella in Sweden...LOL
Don't worry and be ashamed, we are striving to learn a new language on our own, it's a quite taught process , I think what we can do is help each other and we mustn't fill full of shame...
So if you find some mistakes in my posts, please correct them.
P.
yeah, you are prefectly right!
May I ask where have you found the expression you used to ask the question i hadn't understood?
I think the post doesn't need any big corrections! But you know... it could be that i simply haven't noticed the mistakes!
Anyway imho:
Maybe in the comment you wrote here you meant "you shouldn't feel.." instead of "mustn't fill" is it possible?
And, another little thing: i think it's better to say "i hope i've been clear" instead of the indirect expression "I hope to have been clear"...
Ciao

Sorry Selma, I didn't get it...I don't understand your question please help my stupid brain.
And, another little thing: i think it's better to say "i hope i've been clear" instead of the indirect expression "I hope to have been clear"...
I agree with you
Maybe in the comment you wrote here you meant "you shouldn't feel.." instead of "mustn't fill" is it possible?
uhm I'd change only "fill" sometimes I make this kind of mistake I write the words as I pronounce them...
Thank you for correcting me
PS
I took a look at your favourite music...you like Kings of convenience and the great Jeff Buckley... I mostly like the last one.
I write so often words as their pronunciation would suggest me... Mostly when I'm writing fast, like on skype or msn... So don't worry!
I suggested "should" instead of "must" as the first implies you are giving a suggestion or a possibility, the second something that necessarily has to be ... I understood yours as a suggestion! ...But it could be it was an order!! ;P
Maybe you already know this: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/
I think it's very usuful, and i look for many things up on it as it gives also grammar tips! But the most part of the time I play with the hangman!!:D
Concerning "the expression you used to ask the question" i was referring to "do they rice each other"...
Sorry, i haven't specified it and with all these comments bouncing back from a blog to another it's not so easy to catch everything at first!
so you like Jeff Buckley!! I started to keep track of his career when he was still alive... I think i was 13!! I remember I watched by chance on our old "videomusic" the video of "so real"... But of course my appreciation increased growing old!
And you know kings of convenience too!
I think they are one of the reason I started to go in for Scandinavia!
I met them in Genoa after their concert in 2005 and saw Erlend (the red-haired one) in Modena with his side project, "The withest boy alive", not bad but i have to admit i prefer KoC!
ciao puntino ho risposto al tuo quesito (albergo a dublino) sul blog di Grazia...
Spero di esserti stata utile!

@ Selma
...But it could be it was an order!! ;P
yes, an order!
Thank you for pointing out http://www.thefreedictionary.com/
I'll take a closed look at it.
you met KoC... lucky you, to be honestly I know their popular album Riot in empty street, I have never listen to "Versus" how is it ?
*an order!*
Yes Sir!!!
I made everything which was in my power to meet Kings of Convenience... I have to say I expected them to be more friendly though! I mean: they are not U2 or Vasco Rossi, filling San Siro, running away from 20.000 fans!
But I really like their music!
"Riot on an empty street" was quite good, I prefer "Quiet is the new loud"...
Versus is not bad, but that's not KoC, any of their lovely acoustic tune in it: it's a remix album!
Quiet is the new loud".. title promises good things..
I'll listen to it.
Bye
