Italy

I know it's a bold move, but I'm single and want to try something different. Has anyone made a similar transition that can offer advice? I plan to live there only for about 2 years. I speak the language (somewhat), and I know that I'd have to get a job, an apartment, etc. Any advice?

We are booking our honeymoon in Italy and are having trouble finding rooms that are not two twin joined beds. Is this a cultural difference between Europe and the United States?

We would really like to visit Milan,Florence,Lake Como & Santa Margheria, any suggestions on how we can do this simply by staying at one central point and doing day trips by train or bus. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
We will also travel down to Rome for 3 days then onto the south of Italy on a Mini Tour to Naples,Sorrento,Pompoeii and Capri. Hope to hear from someone soon.

Simple. They knew he was in the closet and that they could not rely on him to help pass their agenda with help from the DNC. So they waited until a time when it would help them most, midterm elections, without concern for the young pages being victimized.

I am planning on going to Italy summer 2007. Since the country of San Marino is enclaved by Italy, would we need a passport to get in? Is there anything else that I should know about San Marino?

That Islam is a dangerous cult. I spent a week listening to the Koran on audio. I spoke with real Muslims. I read the Koran. I read papers by top religious scholars, I've studied Islams effect on the countries who abide by it's law and religion. I do not beleive it is of peace. It is in fact a cult. I have arrived at my conclusion, and here are SOME works on the net that I used to conduct my research. Prove me wrong, please:

Republicans and or conservatives. Nixon CUTS and RUNS from Vietnam. Iran blackmails Reagan with hostages (Carter got tough and sent in special forces until chopper was shot down) so Reagan arms Iran and the Contras.

Reagan CUTS and RUNS from Hezbollah in Lebanon when they bomb a marines barracks. Reagan and Bush arm, train, finance Bin Laden and his boys in Afghanistan (the CIA operative who was the go between said on p.b.s that he warned Reagan and Bush to stop dealing with Bin Laden, but they ignored him thus ending any excuse of “we were helping him to destroy the Russian occupation”. http://www.consortiumnews.com/Print/091701a.html

Reagan, Bush, Rumsfeld give Saddam chemical weapons. Hundreds of thousands die during this long ordeal (including an estimated 90,000 infants and toddlers which is more in that time span then abortions for a decade) Saddam runs out and then we stop arming him. That’s why we knew there were no WMD’s in Iraq.

Reagan, Bush arm and finance the Taliban. Bush’s go into business with the Bin Ladens (Carlyle Group). Bush’s become great friends with the Saudi Royal family, the same family which has financed terrorism for years. Dubya ignores Presidential Daily Brief which says “Bin Laden determined to strike U.S.”. George Tenant Begs Bush to be on alert for airplane hijackings from Arab students who are being trained to fly aircraft, but not how to take off or land. Congress wants a budget of 3 million to combat terrorism, Bush squashes this and gives zero, that’s zero dollars to terrorism. Richard Clark constantly warns Bush about terrorist attacks that will be coming soon, Bush ignores him. 9/11/01 We are hit on Bush’s watch and Bush looks like an idiot on TV when he finds out we are under attack, and operation blame Clinton because Bush is an idiot begins.

Bush protects the Bin Laden family before 9/11 when the FBI was told to back off Bin Ladens brother who was funneling money to Al-Qaeda http://www1.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/cms.dll/articleshow?art_id=1030259305after 9/11. Bush tries handing over port security to countries linked to terrorism. Bush cuts a deal with Pakistan, a country to be well known to be a safe haven for terrorism. Now Pakistan has cut a deal with Al-Qaeda.

Bush tries handing over our ports to countries linked to terrorism. Bush is opening up our borders to Mexico and Canada soon allowing terrorists free reign in America, and handing over a hundred thousand jobs to Mexicans to be in charge of our cargo security, and all importing and exporting (this one is from Conservative Republicans http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=14965 )

People start making excuses “we haven’t been attacked in five years. Experts then ask “what about five years and one month, this shuts up Republicans.

Americans invent a new drinking game called “if in doubt blame Clinton”. Whenever a nut case Republican or conservative tries to put blame on Clinton to divert attention away from the Republicans terror record (see above, or read your high school history books) take one shot of whiskey.

The question is do you still feel safe? And will Republican conservatives quit arming, training, financing all our enemies?

Pizza Hut pizzas are nowhere near the average pizzas in Italy. Not even in restaurants outside Italy. Not in Singapore at least! What so special about traditional, made in Italy pizzas?

I was bored and browsing around the questions and answers and found that. Where on earth would they have gotten that? I had a friend who was in Italy at the time of the attacks and I remember exactly what she told me. She said that she had went outside that morning to buy a loaf of bread and the man at the counter looked at her and asked her if she was American. She said yes and in a low voice he told her what had happened. She said he was almost in tears himself......I just can't believe anybody would post something like that.

Hi we have recently returned from a visit to the historic City of Rome where we saw many interesting things. I am trying to find out the name of a particular chapel so I can do some more research on it.

One particular day we were taken on a tour of San Giovanni in Latera. When we came out, the guide marched us across the road and into ANOTHER place of worship. This chapel contained a staircase with, I think, 28 steps. Some very religious old ladies were crawling to the top on their knees, saying a prayer at every step which will take about 30 minutes.

What amused us was a bunch of american "tourists", complete with baggy shorts, funny beards and rucksacks. They, too wanted to get inside this chapel, but quickly- persumably to take photos. They were going up the staircase on their knees too, but in an undignified hurry, trying to overtake the old ladies.

Please can anyone enlighten me as to the nalme of this church? I'm guessing the stairway was the "Holy Staircase"
