VIDEO DI DENUNCIA DEL SANREMO BEPPE GRILLO MEETUP: "POGGIO ABBANDONATO COMPLETAMENTE DAL COMUNE DI SANREMO." www.meetup.com 5 maggio 2012 Il Sanremo Beppe Grillo Meetup, ha intervistato i residenti di Poggio e documentato il totale abbandono da parte del Comune di Sanremo di questa frazione. Non esiste più un luogo di aggregazione per i residenti: - campo da calcio inagibile ma usato come parcheggio - non si svolge più la festa Patronale per mancanza di spazio adeguati - riqualificazione delle aree, dove c'erano le vecchie scuole, i lavori dovevano essere terminati nel 2009 ed invece ad oggi il cantiere è totalmente abbandonato e pieno di macerie - bocciofila chiusa da anni - un altro campetto da calcio chiuso, per problemi strutturali della recinzione - un piccolo auditorium mai utilizzato ed ora in preda alla vegetazione - l'unico parco giochi per bambini è pericoloso e dovrebbe essere messo immediatamente in sicurezza Non servirebbero grandissimi interventi ma la volontà politica di attuarli. Inoltre nella piazza principale di Poggio, vicino alla fermata dell'autobus, c'è un muro in pietra spanciato a rischio crollo. Cosa aspetta il Comune ad intervenire? La disgrazia?

Sanremo or San Remo(''Sanrœmu'' in Ligurian) is a city with about 57,000 inhabitants on the Mediterranean coast of western Liguria in north-western Italy. Founded in Roman times, the city is best known as a tourist destination on the Italian Riviera. It hosts numerous cultural events, such as the Sanremo Music Festival and the Milan – San Remo cycling classic. The city is widely accepted as the origin of the five-card stud variant ''telesina''.

Name

The name of the city is a phonetic contraction of ''Sant'Eremo di San Romolo'', which refers to Romulus of Genoa, the successor to Syrus of Genoa. In Ligurian, his name is ''San Rœmu''. The spelling ''San Remo'' is on all ancient maps of Liguria, the ancient Republic of Genoa, Italy in the Middle Ages, the Kingdom of Sardinia, and the Kingdom of Italy. It was used in 1924 in official documents during Fascism.

History

Once the Roman settlement of ''Matutia'''or ''Villa Matutiana'', Sanremo expanded in the Early Middle Ages when the population moved to the high grounds. The nobility built a castle and the walled village of La Pigna to protect the town from Saracen raids.

At first subjected to the countship of Ventimiglia, the community later passed under the dominion of the Genoese bishops. In 1297 they sold it to the Doria and De Mari families. It became a free town in the second half of the 15th century, after which it expanded to the Pigna hill and at Saint Syrus Cathedral. The almost perfectly preserved old village remains.

Sanremo remained independent from Genoa for a long time. In 1753, after 20 years of fierce conflicts, it rose against the hegemonical attempts of the Genoese Republic. At that time the latter polity built the fortress of Santa Tecla, situated on the beach near the port. The fortress was used as a prison until 2002. It is now being transformed into a museum.

After the French domination and the Savoy restoration (1814), Sanremo was annexed to the Kingdom of Sardinia. Since the middle of the 18th century, the town grew rapidly, in part due to the development of tourism: the first grand hotels were built and the town extended along the coast. Notable people, such as the Empress Elisabeth of Austria "Sissi", Empress Maria Alexandrovna of Russia, Czar Nicholas II of Russia, Alfred Nobel, and the writer Italo Calvino stayed here.

Economy

Sanremo enjoys special weather conditions throughout the year due to its vicinity to the Mediterranean Sea and the presence of the Maritime Alps right behind the town. Monte Bignone, the highest peak, is some 1,300 m above the sea level. The town's climate is described as one of 'perpetual spring', with warm days and chilly nights and little variation of temperature around the year. These conditions make Sanremo one of the most attractive tourist destinations on the Italian Riviera. Numerous tourist attractions are open year-round; and it has numerous and well-equipped sports facilities, such as a golf course and a riding ground. The tourist harbours of Porto Vecchio and the modern Porto Sole accommodate tourist boats. Many boutiques and local shops are in the town centre. A market is held on Tuesday and Saturday mornings in Piazza Eroi Sanremesi.

The Municipal Casino, built in 1905, is an example of liberty style building. The Ariston Theatre offers annual series of concerts, operas and theater plays. The Symphony Orchestra is one of twelve symphony orchestras recognized by the state of Italy; et performs some 120 concerts throughout the year, most in the Municipal Casino's Opera Theater.

Besides tourism, the city is active in the production of extra virgin-grade olive oil, whose regional "designation of origin" is protected (D.O.P., ''Denominazione di Origine Protetta''). It is one of the agricultural commodities in western Liguria and in particular within the province of Imperia. Sanremo is known as the City of Flowers (''la Cittá dei Fiori''), this being another important aspect of the economy of the city. The nearby towns of Arma di Taggia, Bordighera and Ospedaletti are also involved in the cultivation of flowers for the international flower market of Sanremo.

Transportation

The city is connected to Genoa and to Ventimiglia, the border city with France, by the A10 motorway, whose last part is also known as the ''Autostrada dei Fiori'' ("Freeway of Flowers"). It has a large number of elevated sections with viaducts that give a panoramic view of the coast. The A10 Autostrada joins the French A8 autoroute at the border between Ventimiglia and Menton. Together these national routes are part of the European route E80. Both the French and Italian motorways are toll roads.

The closest airport to Sanremo is in France, the Côte d'Azur International Airport airport in Nice, 75 minutes away by car or train. The railway connects the city to the other Ligurian cities like Imperia, Genoa and to Nice, Milan, Turin and Rome.

The railway line used to be along the coast, running close to the sea, and providing a view for travelers. The line has been moved further north and underground, which allows for faster trains; Sanremo railway station was relocated next to the City Hall. The city is refurbishing the area once occupied by the railway and converting it into a biking route and pedestrian area.

Other roads of importance are the SS1, the "Aurelia Bis", which connects Sanremo to Taggia. This is a non-toll bypass route. The coast road is the via Aurelia or SS1 and follows the route of a Roman road. This can be heavily congested when it passes through towns, as it has only one lane in either direction for most of way around Sanremo. A trolleybus line along the via Aurelia links Sanremo with both Taggia and Ventimiglia.

Climate

Sanremo experiences a warm Mediterranean climate (Köppen climate classification ''Csa'').

Culture

The Sanremo Music Festival

The Ariston Theater hosts the celebrated annual Sanremo Music Festival, a very popular song contest held in the city since 1951. This festival inspired the Eurovision Song Contest, which started in 1956, and for years the Sanremo festival selected the Italian entry. The internationally notable song ''"Nel Blu Dipinto di Blu"'', also known as ''"Volare"'', was performed at this festival for the first time by Domenico Modugno in 1958. The festival is so popular amongst Italians that it is often referred to simply as "Il Festival" (''The'' Festival). Other events include the Tenco Prize (autumn), a song contest for authors dedicated to the memory of Luigi Tenco; the Flowers Parade in January/February in which every city of the Italian Riviera presents an original composition of flowers displayed on a Carnival/Mardi-Gras style moving car; and the summer Firework International Contest in the second week of July.

Sports

The Rallye Sanremo is a rally competition that was part of the FIA World Rally Championship from 1973 to 2003. It was replaced by Rally d'Italia Sardegna on the island of Sardinia, in hosting the Italian round of the WRC. Formerly a mixed surface event (tarmac and gravel), the rally has later been an all-tarmac event and takes place around the mountains. Sanremo is the finish of the classic Milan – San Remo cycle race (298 km), one of the five 'Monuments' of the cycling season. Milan – San Remo is traditionally held in March, and is one of the first major fixtures on the cycling season.

The local football club is the U.S. Sanremese Calcio 1904 that playing in Lega Pro Seconda Divisione.

Cuisine

The culinary specialties of Sanremo and environs include Sardenara, Focaccia, Focaccia alle Cipolle, Torta Verde, Farinata and Tallesca olives.

    Emma Marrone (born 25 May 1984 in Florence, Italy) is an Italian singer.

    Early life

    Born in Florence, Marrone has always lived in Aradeo in the province of Lecce. She acquired her passion for music from her father Rosario, guitarist of a band from Aradeo called "Karadreon" which formed when Marrone was quite young (10–11 years old), performing in festivals and in clubs. She graduated from Classical High School.

    ''Lucky Star''

    She started her professional musical career in 2003, when she took part in the second Italian edition of ''Popstars'' (renamed ''Superstar Tour''); Emma won the talent and with Laura Pisu and Colomba Pane she formed the Lucky Star. The group released a single in 2003 called ''Stile''. The single was released for Universal label and was good success. In 2006 the group recorded the soundtrack of the cartoon W.I.T.C.H and was released a dance album called ''LS3'', that was a commercial failure. The group disbanded after the failure of the album.

    Lucio Dalla (born March 4, 1943 in Bologna) is a popular Italian singer-songwriter and musician. He also plays clarinet and keyboards.

    He is the composer of ''Caruso'' (1986), which has been covered by numerous international artists. A version of ''Caruso'' sung by Luciano Pavarotti sold over 9 million copies, and another version was a track on Andrea Bocelli's first international album Romanza, which later sold over 16 million copies worldwide. This piece is also on Josh Groban's album "Closer", which sold over 5 million copies in the United States alone. The song is a tribute to the emblematic opera tenor Enrico Caruso.

    Biography

    Beginnings

    He began to play the clarinet at an early age, in a jazz band in Rome. The singer-songwriter Gino Paoli noticed Dalla's vocal qualities and suggested he attempt a solo career as an Italian soul singer. However, Dalla's debut at the Cantagiro festival in 1965 was unsuccessful probably due to his appearance and to his music, which was considered too experimental for the time. His first album, ''1999'', was released the following year. His next album, ''Terra di Gaibola '' (from the name of a suburb of Bologna), was released in 1970 and contained some early Dalla classics.

    His first hit was "4 Marzo 1943", which garnered some success at the Sanremo Festival. Regardless of its title, the song became popularly known as "Gesù bambino". Also successful was "Piazza grande", which Dalla would sing again at Sanremo.

    Albums with Roversi

    At this point, Dalla made a decisive move in his career, starting a collaboration with the Bolognese poet Roberto Roversi. Roversi wrote the lyrics to Dalla's next three albums ''Il giorno aveva cinque teste'' (The Day Had Five Heads) (1973), ''Anidride solforosa'' (1975) and ''Automobili'' (Automobiles) (1976) Although these albums did not sell in large numbers, they were noted by critics for the unusual mix of Roversi's weird lyrics with Dalla's improvisatory, and sometimes experimental, compositional abilities.

    The duo had already broken up by the time the concept album ''Automobili'' was released. Roversi, who had been against the album's release, chose the pseudonym "Norisso" when it was time to register the songs. The album, however, included one of Dalla's most popular songs, "Nuvolari", named after the famous 1930s Italian racer.

    Singer-songwriter

    Affected by the end of the collaboration, Dalla decided to write the lyrics of his next albums himself. This decision proved to be surprisingly good, and he soon emerged as one of the most intelligent and musically cultured of the Italian singer-songwriters. The first album of this new phase was ''Com'è profondo il mare'' (1977), in which Dalla was accompanied by some members of the future pop band Stadio. The title track or "Quale allegria" are today ranked among the best Italian songs.

    Dalla's poetic inspiration was confirmed by the following albums, all entitled ''Lucio Dalla'' or ''Dalla'' and all best-sellers. They contain classics like "Anna e Marco", "L'anno che verrà", "Futura", and "Cara".

    In 1979, his popularity was confirmed by the success of the ''Banana Republic'' tour and album of 1979 together with singer-songwriter Francesco De Gregori, his band, and his friend Ron.

    The hit single ''Attenti al Lupo'' (1990) gave him wider success in Europe.

    He was invited for duetting on Pavarotti and friends, singing his own hit "Caruso" with Luciano Pavarotti.
