Goumbala Mbacké Serigne
This afternoon we sent the first Curriculum Vitae (CV) of my friend Goumbala Mbacké Serigne to Unicoop Florence asking for a stable work. Actually he is volunteering as a civil helper at Unicoop’s major competitor Esselunga S.p.A. Last time I brought him good luck, when Italian authorities eventually granted him a residence permit, after seven or so years of waiting. And this time I hope I’ll see more of him at Unicoop, so maybe it will be up to him to offer me coffee.

Patiently and confidently
Chiara Angelini, virtuoso dancer as well as correspondent of Associazione Culturale “Il Delta della Luna”, thanks to the power of her new telephoto lens, snapped a series of professional pictures that show Pope Francis celebrating Holy Mass in the Artemio Franchi Municipal Stadium. But if we look forward to her promised article on the Pope Francis’ one-day visit in Florence, well, true believers would say: “We must wait patiently and confidently”.

Flying High Again
In his inspired speech to the Fifth National Convention of the Italian Church gathered in Cathedral Santa Maria del Fiore, Pope Francis laid out his smiling challenge to the Church as it is today. “The Church is not free because of money, because of power, because of the image in the media. Pope Francis invited all the Church and all the people to be free from [that which] is not able to make us happy and to make us free”, Ms. Chiara Giaccardi told to Vatican Radio.

Σουβλάκι (Souvlaki)
ATHENS, May 7 (Reuters) – Greece’s parliament passed a law on Thursday paving the way for the government to rehire about 4,000 public sector workers who were laid off or earmarked for dismissal under austerity cuts imposed by international creditors.
The move made good on a campaign promise by Prime Minister Alexīs Tsipras, who rode a wave of public anger against austerity measures to win January elections, and does not explicitly violate the terms of the EU/IMF bailout which allows Greece to hire one public employee for every five who leave.

Iron Man
Centoventi uomini di ferro sparsi fra bastioni, terrazze, stanze e scalinate del Forte Belvedere, idealmente affacciati sulla città. È “Human”, personale dell’artista inglese Antony Gormley, fra i nomi più significativi del panorama mondiale dell’arte contemporanea, visitabile a ingresso libero negli spazi esterni ed interni del Forte fino al 27 settembre a ingresso gratuito (martedì-domenica ore 10-20). Fra le opere in mostra, anche l’importante installazione “Critical mass”, definito dall’artista “un anti monumento che evoca tutte le vittime del XX secolo”, ideata originariamente nel 1995 per un vecchio deposito di tram a Vienna e composta da dodici figure installate in senso lineare e progressivo dalla posizione fetale a quella assunta per osservare le stelle. La mostra è curata da Sergio Risaliti e Arabella Natalini, promossa dal Comune di Firenze con il sostegno di Galleria Continua e White Cube e organizzata da Mus.e (Foto di Claudio Giovannini cge).
