Superior General [Editor’s Note: Below are some excerpts from the Superior General’s Circular Letter on community life. To read the complete text, please go to the website www.passiochristi.org] February 18, 2015 Retreat of Sts. John and Paul Dear Brothers, INTRODUCTION In this letter, I wish to cast some random thoughts on the subject of community life. This is also in response to the proposal from the last General Chapter, which asked that the Superior General would undertake a specific pastoral action (catech- esis) on the communitarian dimension of our life. I aim to share some reflections on community life from selected authors, but especially from Pope Francis – which I encourage you to use for your personal reflection, but also urge you to share as brothers in “It is in the lived experience, more than anywhere else, community. where we can identify both the fruitful and evangelical There is never a time when the subject of commu- community life, and also the challenges and sufferings nity life is not an issue to talk about. We have done, encountered in community.” and continue to do, a lot of talking, sharing and dis- cussing about community life; there is also a vast amount of material written on this subject. I ask tening to the brothers’ experience of the fraternal life, myself: “What more can I say? Is there anything new I sense a yearning for companionship, acceptance, that I can add?” Perhaps a place to begin is the lived respect, harmony and working together on the one experience, because it is in the lived experience, more hand; but I also see and hear about loneliness, isola- than anywhere else, where we can identify both the tion, individualism, independence and excessive pri- fruitful and evangelical community life, and also the vacy on the other. challenges and sufferings encountered in community.

To this end, I would ask you to think about my fre- quent comments about criticism, gossip, envy, jealousy, hostility as ways of acting which have no place in our houses.

D'ARCA From the 'Centro di Studi-della Microcitemia di Roma% Istituto d'Igiene dell'Universitd di Roma, Italia SUMMARY In the 1975 to 1976 school year, under the auspices of the Health Authorities of the Latium Region, the Rome Microcythaemia Centre carried out for the first time a partial screening survey of thalassaemia carriers among the students of the compulsory intermediate school in Latium. This work was the beginning of a new preventive school health service aimed at the prophylaxis of Cooley's disease. In 23 places investigated in Latium, 17 724 students were examined, 13 354 of whom were in Rome and 4370 elsewhere. The mean percentage of co-operation was 70% and the mean percentage of thalassaemia 2.42%. Thalassaemic students were invited to attend the centre for a check-up along with their families: about half had already come in by the end of June 1976. All students examined, whether normal or thalassaemic, have received written results of the tests. The screening survey aroused notable interest and obtained wide approval both at school and at home. The news of being thalassaemia carriers, even if not welcome, was never the cause of family tragedy. copyright. Under the auspices of and with financial support from Informed consent having been obtained, a team of the Health Authorities of the Latium Region, the doctors took 1 ml venous blood from each student in Rome Microcythaemia Centre initiated and carried out the school dispensary.

It is an oasis of good food and relax, it is a perfect escape from the city and the best place to interact with locals… Lakes & Sea In Tuscia lies a series of eyelet lakes filling the craters of extinct volcanoes: Vico, a wild lake surrounded by chestnut and hazelnut trees is the most visited by locals. Bolsena is the largest lake of volcanic origins in Italy, has two picturesque islands (Bisentina and Martana) in its centre. Many gorgeous and important villages are situated on the shore of this huge lake. Bracciano is a popular swimming lake for Romans ringed by Medieval villages and its main town of Bracciano with the glowering 15th-century Castello Orsini–Odescalchi. Off Bracciano’s southwest shore, there is a secret and peaceful gem: Lake Martignano, where you can enjoy the pure nature, sun and silents. Clear water of all these lake provides enjoyable environment for swimming. Tuscia can also boast a number of beautiful sandy beaches and seaside resorts on the Tyrrhenian Sea such as Marina di Montalto di Castro, Pescia Romana, Lido di Tarquinia. Spring Water The Tuscia has an important thermal area, all springing up around the Bullicame source of Viterbo, consisting of various sulfur springs that are considered among the most abundant in Italy. The advantage lies in the chemical and physical properties of water, suitable for all types in spa therapy. In hole area there are all types of thermal pools, from the wild pools in the countryside, well known by locals, to the spas with all facilities and treatments.

  • An Updated Report on the Water Chemistry of the Lakes of Central Italy
    In: Lake Pollution Research Progress ISBN: 978-1-60692-106-7 Editors: F. R. Miranda, L. M. Bernard, pp. - © 2008 Nova Science Publishers, Inc. Short Communication AN UPDATED REPORT ON THE WATER CHEMISTRY OF THE LAKES OF CENTRAL ITALY Franco Medici and Gilberto Rinaldi Department of Chemical Engineering Materials and Environment, “La Sapienza” University of Roma, Via Eudossiana – 00184 Roma (Italy) ABSTRACT Albano, Bolsena and Bracciano are the most important lakes in Central Italy; the relevance and the potential vulnerability of these lakes is enhanced by their location in a populous area, with a high water demand for agriculture and other public uses. The waters of Lake Bracciano are already utilized for drinking supply to the city of Rome. The aim of this paper is to update the information on the water chemistry of these lakes, on the basis of samplings carried out by the authors; moreover experimental data are compared with similar analyses available from the literature. Besides the mass hydraulic balance of the lake system, the whole volcanic basin was considered and data related to the period 2000-2005 were also highlighted. INTRODUCTION The lake system of Central Italy, composed of five medium-sized lakes (Trasimeno, Bolsena, Bracciano, Vico and Albano) with a total water volume of 15.6 km 3, is the second in importance in Italy after the Alpine Lake district in the region of Lombardia (Mosello, 2004). Moreover, in terms of water volume, it collects approximately 11% of the Italian hydro lake resource, (the total volume of collected water being 150 km 3). The larger lakes of Central Italy are reported in table 1 with their main characteristics; a number of smaller lakes (area < 4 km 2), also located in the same area, are reported in table 2.

    WRITTEN QUESTION E-3212/10 by Sergio Berlato (PPE) to the Commission Subject: Very serious environmental situation of Lake Vico Lake Vico, in the province of Viterbo, is the main water resource for the towns of Ronciglione and Caprarola, for which it provides a supply of drinking water. For some years now, Lake Vico’s ecosystem has been in a critical condition. Partly due to the volcanic origin of the lake, its waters are rich in arsenic, a substance which has been classified as carcinogenic to humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). Since 2007, periodic and extensive blooms of planktothrix rubescens algae have occurred in the waters of the lake. These ‘red algae’, as they are often called, produce a substance (microcystin) which is harmful not only to the plant and animal species found in the lake, but also to human health. Recent data presented at a convention held in March 2010 confirm the presence in the lake waters of high levels of arsenic and other toxic and carcinogenic substances. The Italian branch of ISDE (International Society of Doctors for the Environment) in Viterbo has alerted the competent authorities on several occasions to the possible risk to human health of using water drawn from the lake for human consumption in view of the various toxic substances which have been detected in it. ISDE has, moreover, called for specific intervention measures to protect and improve the whole lake water system in the interests of public health protection. Unfortunately, no decisive and effective measures have been taken up to now, although the situation is steadily deteriorating and the risk to public health is increasing.
