Italy's name is on this cup. Boring game with Spain, almost two shoots on goal per side. Toni was a living dead, if he didn't manage to score even against the shortest defenders of the tournament we deserve to go home. Awesome goalkeeper, slightly more than average defense and awful forwards for wh...

Impressive Russian stamina, they kept on running during the whole match like (or "as"? sorry for any mistake, by the way) the first minute. Great long range shooting skills, as well. Arshavin really proved his worth. Hiddink always manages to achieve great results with not-so-titled teams....

France or Italy will win this tournament, depending on who gets out of the group. I'm a little bit more pessimistic than you but I hope it ends the way you predicted.

If I'm being honest with myself, if I had the internet when I was seventeen I'm fairly certain I would have rifled through and dismissed most of the influential albums of my youth and moved on. On the contrary if I hadn't had the internet I would have been stuck with almost mainstream music and som...

Now I understand! That fake Italian language, she stems from Agostino's version of English.

I'm gonna use that dolphin - rhino thing, too.
Awesome.

I don't know if Cobain actually wanted mainstream recognition, money or what. Maybe for him it was fine to accept the compromises that Geffen offered, maybe his music was just "getting poppier". By the way it is sure that "Nevermind" made a lot of young pre-internet kids discover...

The "Palestinians" and "Arabs" are many many different peoples who can't even get along with each other. (And never have done. War is the way of the world.) They need to demonize Israel in order to appear cohesive. Their failed attempts to wipe out Israel show that Islam is a fr...
