The IL DAGO Official History Clip, TodayTonight, July 20, 2007

WATCH out, Il Divo !!
This NEW SUPERGROUP is ready to take over the world, one souvlaki-loving comedy fan at a time. The four boys have the suits, the look, the ethnicity to deliver their own style and operatic solos.

The stars of The IL Dago Comedy Stage Show currently touring Australia, are, Joe Avati, George Kapiniaris, Simon Palomares and Nish Selvadurai. The IL Dago show is presented in English and all the performers do their best to make sure that all audiences are offended. They parody as many boy groups as they can… especially IL Divo!

History:

Simon Palomares was one of the creators and stars, along with George Kapiniaris, of the Wogs Out of Work comedy stage show, which later evolved into the Acropolis Now TV series (5 Seasons!).

The original Wogs Out of Work comedy stage show in the 1980’s - is now widely regarded as the start of ethnic stage comedy - that included several jokes/routines with a bilingual delivery.

Probably the worlds most famous Italian Bilingual Comedian is Joe Avati. Joe has presented his Bi-Lingual Comedy Show in Canada, USA, England and his home country of Australia. Joe’s bilingual show consisted of stories told in English with an Italian (Spoken) punchline.

Joe took several months off the road to re-write many of his stories in English for the IL Dago Comedy Stage Show.

New to Ethnic Comedy is Sri Lankan Australian comic Nish Selvadurai who recounts his experiences growing up in Australia with an ethnic background.

Highlights of my Sicilian Sailing Trip

November 30th, 2008

What a concept - learning Italian on a sailboat!!! In May of 2007 I did just that: with 4 other Italian students I boarded the Solitaire II, a 4-cabin sailboat, to study Italian sailing through the beautiful Eolian Islands of Sicily. We were in the capable hands of Francesco, our captain, and Franco, a gifted guitar player, both of them teachers from the Laboratorio Linguisitico Italian Language School in Milazzo, Sicily.

We spent a whole week sailing through gorgeous places such as Lipari, Salina, Stromboli, Panarea and Vulcano, and we had Italian lessons on the boat or in various outdoor bar patios on different islands overlooking the Mediterranean.

Here is a tiny selection of clips from a trip of a lifetime.

Repair of Bone

November 30th, 2008

Repair of Bone

The fracture of a bone is usually caused by direct violence or by a strong twisting strain. When a bone fractures the two fragments separate and in so doing tear the arteries in the Haversian systems that cross the fracture line. This damage results in the leakage of blood into the fracture, where it is trapped and soon clots. After a short time, the Haversian arteries go into spasm, causing the death of active bone cells not only at the fracture site, but also for some distance along the shaft. About two days after the break, the blood clot is invaded by capillaries and fibroblasts. The fibroblasts differentiate into bone-forming cells, or osteoblasts, and cells that form periosteal tissue on the outside of the bone. New tissue, called callus, surrounds the fracture and replaces the dead bone. The dead bone is absorbed and replaced by new bone, formed by the osteoblasts in the callus, which is remodeled by cells, called osteoclasts, to its original shape. This remodeling process is so effective that after a few months it is difficult to detect the fracture site.

Why is it that black people only have a black month for their history?

November 29th, 2008

You dont hear Italian History month, Chinese History month and i can go on and on, but with black people WE DO(Black History Month) and i would like to kno why……to me its ashame how our history has been forgotten and lost!!!!

I think black history month does more to encourage separation and prejudice then promote understanding of the black race. Imagine a Nazi month or a White month remembering the good old days of slavery… It wouldn't be perceived as positive, nor should it be!!! Misguided…that is what i think///

How do you say this in ITALIAN (Job interview)?

November 29th, 2008

I'll go to a job interview at an italian culture/business related company. The interview'll bemore likely be conducted in my language, but since it's an italian culture/business related company, I want to be prepared to say something in italian in case they tell me to talk about something in Italian. Could someone tell me how to say the following in CORRECT Italian?

"I'm very interested in art and cultural exchange, and that's why I applied for your company. If I am hired, I will learn and acquire all the skills and knowledge required for the job ASAP and do my best to make a contribution to this company.
As for Italian, I studied the language at university and used it on a daily basis at an Italian company I worked for. Although I have not spoken Italian for more than 10 years now, I started studying it from the day I sent my resume to you and will continue doing in order to do my job properly. I would appreciate it if you could give positive consideratin to hire me."
I meant "continue doing so (continue studying Italian)"

Hello.

I could help you.

"Sono molto interessato nell'arte e lo scambio culturale, e ciò è perché ho fatto domanda per la sua società. Se sono assunto, imparerò ed acquisirò tutte le abilità e la conoscenza richieste per il lavoro al piu presto possibile, di fare il mio meglio di fare un contributo a questa società. Quanto all'italiano, ha studiato la lingua all'università e l'ha usato su una base quotidiana a una società italiana che ha lavorato per. Sebbene non ho parlato l'italiano per più di 10 anni adesso, ho cominciato lo studio esso dal giorno ho inviato il mio riprende a lei e continuerà a fare per fare il mio lavoro correttamente. L'apprezzerei se lei potrebbe dare il consideratin a positivo per me assumere".

Bocca al lupo! (means good luck in Italian)

Where is the best place to learn Italian? Florence or Rome?

November 29th, 2008

I am enrolling in a month- long Italian language course this Feb but I’m confused whether to stay in Florence or Rome. I heard Rome is warmer than Florence ( I hate cold weather) but I heard its more expensive and I’m a student on a budget. Guys? Any thoughts?

Hi, I live in Florence…

The climate in Florence and Rome is nearly the same, and to be honest, I’m not sure that Florence is less expensive than Rome…

But in my opinion there is a difference between the two cities:
the Italian spoken in Rome is more dialectic than the Florentine one, in fact Italian language was born in Tuscan, so, the Roman Italian could be more difficult for foreign people ( it also depends on your Italian level…)

Moreover Rome is a big metropolis (about 2.700.000 of inhabitants and 4 millions of inhabitants if we consider “Greater Rome area”), instead Florence is quite small ( it has about 370.000 of inhabitants, 600.000 if we consider the belt of suburbs…)

So it also depends if you are used to live in a big or small city and in which kind of city you would like to live…

Good Luck

Would you consider Italian a difficult language to learn?

November 29th, 2008

I'm currently learning Spanish and Portuguese and would like to learn Italian as well. The thing about it though is that I probably won't be able to take classes to learn the language (I'm already a doulbe major doing International Business and Spanish and plan to pick up a minor in either Mandrin or Japanese). So for this reason I am thinking about just learning the language on my own. I'm doing this with Portugues right now and have been pretty successful. But I'm not sure if that's simply because I'm learning Spanish in school and Portuguese is very similar to it. Is Italian similar enough to Portuguese and Spanish where I'd be able to learn it on my own? Thanks in advance!

Absolutely not. I speak it and I am Romanian. It would be a breeze for you since you speak Spanish and Portuguese. Italian is a lot simpler than Portuguese because it has no nasal sounds - Port has 10 I believe.

Go for it! You'll love the language. It just rolls off your tongue.

I studied French, Italian, Spanish, German, Polish, Arabic, Russian, Romanian (mother tongue), and Chinese during the course of my life. I do not speak all of them, but I can certainly tell you what's easy and what's not.
