London Out Loud behind the scenes

It is now a long time since I could post anything useful here.

The reason is my new online project. A magazine, called London Out Loud, which aims at bringing out the best of London.

“It is about the city’s multiethnic fabric as well as some cultural stuff that makes London quintessentially British”, a colleague of mine wrote.

It is surely the most crazy and consuming project I have been involved. And it is already a great chapter of my life in London.

The mag will go online next Wednesday, the 27th Feb. Keep in touch.

Tribute to Bob Marley

 Today is the day the Rastafarian community remembers Bob Marley, influential Jamaican composer and singer.

Bob Marley was born in February the 6th, 1945 and became the major reggae artist during the sixties and seventies.

As well as Bob Dylan and others from roaring years Bob’s music is political active. The singer was awarded the Medal of Peace of the Third for helping people in need.

Bob Marley passed away 26 years ago but his legend remains alive.

Redemption Song is one of his most famous and political-driven songs.

This version is a tribute of his son, Ziggy Marley.

Europe shivers before Serbian tight run off

Today was the day when the smiles closed and the hearts started to heat noisily.

Serbian presidential run is two days away and what was expected to be a walk in the park for the incumbent turned out to be a race for every single ballot.

The latest pools put the candidates head to head. The pro-western candidate, Tadic, ahead with 51% of the votes, 2% or 150,000 votes more than the ultranationalist, Nicolic.

The forecast is leaving the European diplomats in thin ice. Europe betted more than it could in Tadic and cannot afford for its candidate to lose.
