      Tarcisio Bertone ordina e Veltroni obbedisce
      La storia è questa.  Qualche giorno fa, Walter ego s’è recato Oltretevere: per una visita ufficiale (pare che la stessa fosse in programma da molto tempo). Veltroni ha incontrato Tarcisio Bertone, per l‘esattezza. Vale a dire l’attuale Segretario di Stato del Vaticano. Oggetto del rendez-vous? A quanto riferisce Monica Guerzoni sul Corriere della Sera, si è parlato di molte cose: dalla politica internazionale alle questioni sociali; dai temi eticamente sensibili alla configurazione del Partito democratico. Un argomento più di tutti, però, è stato al centro del colloquio: la possibile istituzione - presso il Comune di Roma - di un registro delle unioni civili. Cosa questa, fortemente voluta dalla Rosa nel Pugno e dallo Sdi. E su cui il consiglio comunale dell’Urbe dovrà deliberare entro il 5 dicembre. Bertone - a quanto riferisce la giornalista del Corriere - avrebbe chiesto al leader del Pd, precise rassicurazioni circa il fatto che il suddetto registro, mai venga pred

      Bertone headed to U.S. with BMW-powered sportscar?
      The blogs are buzzing today about an Automotive News article that reveals Italian coachbuilder Bertone is developing a BMW-powered sports car to sell in the U.S. The article actually focuses on the familial spats occuring within Bertone's management that led to Barbara Bertone, daughter of Lilli Bertone, the company's chairman and CEO, departure in March of 2006. Apparently whatever differences that led to mother and daughter parting professional ways have been worked out, and Barbara has been brought back as the company's managing director. Her sole job is to go out and get Bertone business, as the coachbuilder hasn't had a major job since it stopped producing the Opel/Vauxhall Astra coupe and cabriolet in 2005. Since then it's had some minor work building a special run of 2,000 MINIs, but not enough to prevent the idling of many of its workers.Of course, the interesting news that caught everyone's eye is this short paragraph at the end of the article that reveals Bertone told i

      Geneva: Bertone Concept
      Aggressive and refined. Futuristic and minimalist. In extreme synthesis, that is the new Bertone-designed concept car with which the Company is celebrating its 95th anniversary at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show (8-18 March 2007).Characterised by dynamic proportions and a dynamic style, the new concept car is a true open two-seater sports model on Fiat Panda 100 HP mechanicals that harks back explicitly to the Fiat 500 barchetta designed by a young Nuccio Bertone in 1947 as a one-off for his own personal use in races.Bertone's choice of the Fiat brand to celebrate its 95th anniversary was both natural and emotional. Natural because Fiat is the Italian brand par excellence. Emotional because the birth of Bertone as a coachbuilder of "special" vehicles is closely linked to the history of the Fiat brand. The historic relationship between the two companies has lasted for more than eighty years and has generated more than fifty highly successful models counting concept cars, one-offs
