BILL DE BLASIO NUOVO SINDACO DI NEW YORK

Un mese fa, l'italo-americano, oriundo dalla Lucania ( Basilicata ),Bill De Blasio era in Astoria a salutare tutti i residenti della contea del Queens. Chiedeva di essere votato sindaco della citta' di New York per cambiare le cose perche' lui vuole rappresentare tutti, non solo i ricchi come Michele Bloomberg. Bloomberg, il piu' ricco della storia dei sindaci di New York aveva cambiato la legge a tre mandati per farsi leggere la terza volta. Nei suoi 12 anni al governo, il costo della vita e' salito piu' di Wall Street dal prezzo del parcheggio municipale al costo della tariffa della metropolitana. L'anno scorso alla festa di Columbus Day a Gracie Mansion il sindaco Mike Bloomberg aveva chiesto agli italo americani all'evento se ci fosse una persona italo americana in grado di prendere il suo posto. Certamente Bill De Blasio ha sentito e New York gli ha il 73 percento dei voti. "Siamo contenti di vedere uno come De Blasio al commando della Grande Mela. Lui aiutera' a tutti" dice FPG. Ho avuto il modo di incontrarlo in Astoria. Gli ho detto che conosco Gianluca Galletto e lui ha risposto che lui e un grande amico suo. BerlusconiItalia blogspot monitera' il nuovo sindaco.

Sidoti & Company, LLC Semi-Annual Micro-Cap Conference January 13, 2014 at The Grand Hyatt Hotel New York   Sidoti & Company, LLC is pleased to invite you to our Semi-Annual Micro-Cap Conference on Monday, January 13, 2014.  Midtown Manhattan’s Grand Hyatt Hotel will again be the venue.  The event  -- our eighth -- will be one of the largest gatherings ever held of institutional money managers and management teams focused on the sub-200 million market cap sector.  At least 70 companies will tell their stories, having met Sidoti’s criteria of presenting only companies that have sound fundamentals and intriguing stories, show fast growth and profitability, or otherwise hold great promise, yet are largely unknown to the investment community. If positive feedback is any indication, attendees and presenters alike find Sidoti’s conferences to be well-organized and value-added.  The firm’s ability to leverage its experience in the small-cap arena means that few others can match its reputation for consistency and quality. For more information about the conference please visit microcap.sidoti.com. January 13’s power-packed event will again show the fruits of our coordinated and diligent effort to create the Street’s first complete research product for micro-cap names.  We began covering this neglected segment four years ago, with five micro-cap analysts.  The team was the only one of its kind, but Sidoti maintained that many micro-cap companies have solid fundamentals and/or unique growth catalysts, and had faith it could persuade investors the group contains superior investment opportunities.  Now 20 Sidoti analysts cover more than 200 micro-cap names.  That total is likely to exceed 400 by the end of 2014. The conference will begin with breakfast and registration at 7 a.m. and conclude late in the afternoon.  Luncheon will be provided.  For an idea of the quality listening you will enjoy, please follow the link below, which offers a sample of our presenters. http://www.meetmax.com/upload/event_21157/Microcap%20Schedule%20Jan%202014.pdf You may register before January 2, 2013 at http://www.meetmax.com/sched/event_21157/investor_reg_new.html?event_id=21157&cmd=register For your information, the Grand Hyatt New York is located at Park Avenue at Grand Central Station in New York City, about 8 miles from LaGuardia Airport and 12 miles from JFK International.  Travel time depends on the time of the day and weather conditions.  Please plan accordingly.  For your convenience, we have reserved a block of rooms at the hotel. https://resweb.passkey.com/go/SidotiJanuary2014 As always, our goal is to make this conference well worth the precious time of investors and presenters alike, and we look forward to your participation.  If you have any questions, please call Lynn Orenstein at (212) 453-7031 or me at (212) 453-7000. Sincerely, Peter Sidoti, CEO Please register right away.  Respond by clicking one of the buttons below.

NEW YORK CITY ROADS CONTROLLED BY MOTOR BIKERS GANGS, POLICE CAN'T STOP THEM WITH A CHASE

* THE NYPD AFRAID OF PURSUING MOTOR BIKERS
* MOTORBIKES POLICE CHASE COULD LEAD TO LAWSUITS SAYS POLICE CHIEF INSPECTOR
*TWO MOTOR BIKERS ARRESTED THANKS TO YOU TUBE VIDEO
New York City
A motor biker gang has beaten up an Asian SUV driver who has a struck one of their own and left the scene because he feared for his and family safety. No wonder, even the New York Police Department guys under the command of Ray Kelly can watch and not do anything because they are afraid of pursuing motor bikers. Yes, those unruly barbarians. Big guys with tattoos and large beards, aggressively clothed with a mean look with nasty eyes. No wonder, we are seeing more and more of them on the roads of the City of New York. " Driving in this city is crazy. Not only you have to deal with aggressive taxi drivers and unyielding pedestrians but you also have motorcycles zooming at supersonic speeds." says a resident in the Astoria section of Queens. The NYPD of the 114th Precinct of Cirabisi and company are good only at catching gullible guys with no seat belts ( an easy win win ticket for the men in blue uniform). Stephen Cirabisi, the top guy at the 114th Precinct in Astoria says a pursuit of the motor biker could lead to injury,damage and possibly a costly lawsuit to the NYPD. But, with the help of residents who can identify these wild unruly beasts of the road, he can have his men get to them in a trap at their living locations, thus causing no damages and no lawsuits against the NYPD and the city. Two of the motor bikers were arrested thanks to the video shot and posted by one of the motor bikers. The motor biker struck by the SUV is in serious condition.

LETTERA DI SILVIO BERLUSCONI CONTRO L'ULTIMATUM DI ENRICO LETTA

Caro Francesco,
la decisione assunta ieri dal Presidente del Consiglio dei Ministri Enrico Letta, di congelare l'attività di governo, determinando in questo modo l'aumento dell'Iva è una grave violazione dei patti su cui si fonda questo governo, contraddice il programma presentato alle Camere dallo stesso Premier e ci costringerebbe a violare gli impegni presi con i nostri elettori durante la campagna elettorale e al momento in cui votammo la fiducia a questo esecutivo da noi fortemente voluto.

Per queste ragioni, l'ultimatum lanciato dal Premier e dal Partito Democratico agli alleati di governo sulla pelle degli italiani, appare irricevibile e inaccettabile.

Pertanto ho invitato la delegazione del Popolo della Libertà al governo a valutare l'opportunità di presentare immediatamente le proprie dimissioni per non rendersi complici, e per non rendere complice il Popolo della Libertà, di una ulteriore odiosa vessazione imposta dalla sinistra agli italiani.

MASSIMO D'ALEMA INCONTRA SOCI DEL PD DI NEW YORK

New York City
L'ex Primo Ministro Massimo D'Alema ha incontrato soci del PD ieri a Ristorante Macelleria nel West Village di New York. D'Alema ha risposto a varie domande politiche ed economiche che riguardavano l'Italia durante il suo governo di centro sinistra. Era accompagnato da sua figlia Giulia, la quale e' residente a New York. Un nuovo governo D'Alema nel futuro? Per adesso e' Europa dice l'ex Premier.

NEW YORK IN THE COLD AND RAIN FOR EASTER SUNDAY

New York City
Easter Sunday on the last day of March was spent in the chilly air mass that continues to hold trees from blossoming in New York City. That is way different from last year when the Easter ambiance was similar to late May thanks to an early spring. << Fortunately, our Easter ( Orthodox )  will be celebrated in early May and we will enjoy beautiful weather>> said a Greek professional resident of Astoria, Queens. This year Greek Easter is more than a month apart from Easter Sunday. It is usually on the Sunday after and rarely on the same Sunday. << I expect temperatures to slowly warm up after this latest cold snap that could send temperatures down to freezing in New York City on Monday and Tuesday nights. I plan to start sowing by end of the week as I believe that this Early April cold and frost mass will be the last of Winter 2012-2013.>> said FPG.
