His Holiness Pope’s Harley sells to mystery buyer for 241,500 euros

His Holiness Pope’s Harley sells to mystery buyer for 241,500 euros

 

Paris (AFP)

 

A Harley-Davidson motorbike that briefly belonged to His Holiness Pope Francis was sold for 241,500 euros ($326,000), 16 times its highest original valuation, at an auction in Paris on Thursday.

 

The US motorbike maker gave the 1,585cc Dyna Super Glide to the pope in June to mark the brand's 110th anniversary, and while the 77-year-old never rode it, he signed it before donating it to Roman Catholic charity Caritas Roma.

 

"It's a record for a post-vintage motorbike, from the 21st century," said Bonhams France, the auction house, adding the bike was purchased by an unidentified European buyer.

 

The funds from the sale will go towards the restoration of the charity's hostel and soup kitchen based at Rome's Termini railway station.

 

A jacket that was also given to the pope by Harley-Davidson was snapped up for 57,500 euros.

 

The bike is on show at the Grand Palais in Paris -- where the auction took place -- among hundreds of other iconic vehicles such as Rolls-Royces and Cadillacs.

 

According to Bonhams, His Holiness Pope Francis has another Harley-Davidson, although the famously humble pontiff is more of a fan of buses.

 

He opted to ride one the day after his election last year instead of taking a limousine, and regularly used them in his homeland Argentina instead of taxis.

Milan, Napoli & Siena into Coppa quarters

Japanese international midfielder Keisuke Honda scored his first goal for AC Milan and Jose Callejon struck a double for Napoli as the Serie A giants sealed their places in the quarter-finals of the Coppa Italia on Wednesday.

 

Honda's goal helped Milan see off second tier La Spezia 3-1 while Callejon's double came in Napoli's 3-1 win over Atalanta.

 

Serie B side Siena stunned Catania 4-1 to also reach the last eight of the competition, in which Lazio, Roma, Udinese, Fiorentina and Juventus won their respective ties played previously.

 

Honda made his debut for Milan in the Italian Serie A last week when he came off the bench and came close to scoring in a 4-3 defeat to Sassuolo which prompted the sacking of coach Massimiliano Allegri.

 

Caretaker coach Mauro Tassotti was in charge Wednesday at the San Siro and gave Honda his first start although new coach, Dutchman Clarence Seedorf, arrived in time to see the second half of the game.

 

Brazilian Robinho opened the scoring for the hosts on 28 minutes, with striker Giampaolo Pazzini doubling the lead three minutes later.

 

Honda struck two minutes after the restart to all but wrap up the win, with Nicola Ferrari hitting a consolation for the visitors in second-half injury time.

 

Napoli were a class above Atalanta although the the match made an ill-fated turn towards the end when protests from Atalanta led to the expulsion of veteran Colombia defender Mario Yepes.

 

Atalanta ousted by Napoli

 

Atalanta opened the scoring on 13 minutes thanks to a Giuseppe De Luca tap-in following a counter-attack, only for Callejon to level a minute later with a superb volley from a tight angle from Anthony Reveillere's cross.

 

Lorenzo Insigne, who had earlier smashed a free kick against the crossbar, put Napoli ahead in the 72nd minute in controversial circumstances.

 

Gonzalo Higuain was offside, but the intended pass for the Argentinian hit Atalanta defender Cristiano Del Grosso in the back.

 

Atalanta's defence stood still looking at the linesman but as they did so the ball bounced into Insigne's path and he turned the ball into the empty net.

 

Atalanta protested furiously, with Yepes going too far and earning a red card.

 

Callejon completed his brace shortly after when he sprung the offside trap to volley Gokhan Inler's ball past Ciro Polito.

 

Napoli will host Lazio in the quarters, Milan host Udinese.

 

Fiorentina travel to second division Siena and Serie A champions and leaders Juventus, in the plum tie of the last eight, travel to second-placed Roma.

Italian prime minister wins confidence vote

Italian prime minister wins confidence vote

 

Calling for a "new start", Letta promises major reforms in country grappling with corruption and economic stagnation.

 

[caption id="attachment_10688" align="alignnone" width="400"]Italy Strike (Italy's grim economic situation has sparked countrywide protests [AP])[/caption] 

Italian Prime Minister Enrico Letta has won a key confidence vote in parliament after he pledged sweeping economic and political reforms.

 

Letta's government easily won votes in both the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies on Wednesday, with the backing of a new centre-right party that split from disgraced former leader Silvio Berlusconi.

 

Calling for a "new start," Letta said his priorities for 2014 would include stimulating the economy, reducing unemployment and reforming Italy's electoral law, which many view as a contributing factor to the country's political instability.

 

"I will do everything I can," Letta vowed.

 

"I won't give in to those who say the chaos is too much and we can't do anything."

 

The confidence vote was called to confirm Letta's majority after Berlusconi pulled his Forza Italia party out of the ruling coalition last month.

 

Berlusconi has since been expelled from parliament over his conviction for tax fraud.

 

Economic woes

 

Letta told parliament that Italy had avoided reforms for 20 years and could no longer afford to do so, as countrywide protests this week underlined the bitter public mood.

 

He pledged to fight "like a lion" to tackle problems such as youth unemployment, which was running at more than 40 percent.

 

Years of recession and stagnation have shrunk the economy, while Italy grapples with rampant corruption and a discredited political system.

 

Police shut down parts of Rome on Wednesday as hundreds of protesters gathered near parliament, shouting "Thieves! Thieves!"

 

Letta said the next 18 months would be devoted to a broad package of institutional reforms aimed at creating a stable basis for economic growth, which he said should reach 1 percent in 2014 and 2 percent in 2015.

 

The targets are considered optimistic by virtually all independent forecasters.

Italie: Silvio Berlusconi sur le point d’être chassé du parlement

L’ex-chef du gouvernement Silvio Berlusconi, au centre de la vie politique italienne depuis 20 ans, se prépare mercredi à un vote qui sanctionnera son expulsion du parlement, sans conséquences immédiates toutefois sur le gouvernement.

 

Les partisans du Cavaliere ont tenté par tous les moyens de retarder l’échéance au point que les procédures de vote sur la destitution de M. Berlusconi devraient démarrer seulement vers 18H00 GMT.

 

L’issue du scrutin ne fait guère de doutes puisque la gauche et le Mouvement Cinq Etoiles de l’ex-comique Beppe Grillo ont annoncé qu’ils uniraient leurs voix.

 

Cela aura-t-il un impact sur la tenue du gouvernement ?

 

A priori non car l’exécutif gauche-droite mené par Enrico Letta peut compter sur la fidélité de ses cinq ministres de droite dont l’ex-dauphin du Cavaliere, Angelino Alfano, et une patrouille d’au moins 50 parlementaires regroupés sous l’appellation Nouveau Centre droit.

 

Plaidant pour «une situation politique non chaotique», M. Letta a lancé une sorte d’appel à la raison mardi soir en soulignant que l’Italie, en récession depuis deux ans, «a un besoin dramatique de croître et créer des emplois».

 

De leur côté, les «faucons» du camp Berlusconi ont officialisé leur passage à l’opposition en appelant mardi à voter contre la loi budgétaire, sur laquelle le gouvernement a posé la question de confiance, obtenant dans la nuit une majorité de 171 voix contre 135 au Sénat.

 

C’est cette rupture par le camp Berlusconi des «larghe intese» («les larges ententes») que retenait d’abord mercredi la presse italienne, plus que la fin d’une domination de vingt ans par le Cavaliere de la politique.

 

Certains d’ailleurs ne semblent pas y croire, comme La Repubblica qui écrit: «le pari de Silvio: je retournerai au palais Chigi».

 

Le Corriere della Sera reprochait à Berlusconi d’avoir choisi la devise «après moi le déluge» et aux Berlusconiens de se mettre, avec le mouvement anti-partis «Cinq Etoiles», «dans une position anti-système, en sonnant le tocsin des larghe intese alors même qu’on s’apprête en Allemagne à soutenir une grande coalition».

 

«La démocratie italienne est prise en tenailles entre ces deux forces», jugeait l’éditorialiste Pierluigi Battista.

 

Les Berlusconiens ont annoncé une manifestation mercredi après-midi devant sa résidence romaine où environ 10.000 d’entre eux sont annoncés, tandis que ses opposants les plus farouches ont appelé à fêter sa déchéance près du Sénat.

 

Autre question récurrente: Silvio Berlusconi, privé de son immunité parlementaire, pourrait-il être arrêté, par exemple dans une procédure pénale à Naples où il est accusé d’avoir «acheté» un sénateur de gauche en 2006.

 

«C’est une hypothèse absurde, et dans la situation actuelle, complètement irréelle», a estimé Franco Coppi, l’un des avocats du magnat des médias.

 

«A son âge, on ne va pas en prison sauf dans des cas exceptionnels», a ajouté Piercamillo Davigo, ex-membre du fameux pool anti-corruption Mains Propres qui avait lancé les premières procédures à l’encontre du Cavaliere.

 

Jusqu’au dernier moment, Berlusconi a tenté d’éviter le couperet de son humiliante expulsion en assurant avoir des preuves suffisantes pour obtenir une révision du procès Mediaset qui a abouti le 1er août à sa première condamnation définitive en 20 ans d’ennuis judiciaires.

 

Le vote sur sa destitution est le résultat d’une loi adoptée en 2012 prévoyant l’inégilibilité pendant six ans de tout élu condamné à une peine de plus de deux ans (le Cavaliere s’est vu infliger quatre ans dont trois amnistiés).

 

Le Cavaliere a annoncé le dépôt prochain d’un recours en révision, même si ses avocats ont semblé plus prudents mardi, soulignant vouloir d’abord bâtir «un dossier sérieux et robuste».

 

Pour Stefano Folli, expert politique du journal Sole 24 Ore, «une page d’histoire se tourne et un nouveau chapitre commence».

 

«Berlusconi est encore et restera très puissant, même si son pouvoir est sur le déclin.

 

Il a encore d’énormes ressources, possède toujours ses médias (trois chaînes de télévision, des journaux, ndlr), a obtenu 10 millions de voix il y a six mois», relève le politologue James Waltson, professeur à l’Université américaine de Rome.

 

Le Cavaliere l’a d’ailleurs lui-même martelé : il restera quoiqu’il arrive à la tête de son parti refondé Forza Italia.

 

Selon des sondages effectués pour son compte, une coalition de droite recueillerait 24% des suffrages en cas d’élections anticipées, «deux points de plus que le centre gauche».

Italy: Silvio Berlusconi about to be expelled from parliament (facing separate from parliament)

 

The former head of government Silvio Berlusconi, the center of Italian politics for 20 years, is preparing a vote Wednesday that his expulsion sanction of parliament, however, no immediate impact on the government.

 

Berlusconi supporters have tried by all means to delay the deadline so that the voting procedures on the removal of Mr. Berlusconi should only start around 18:00 GMT.

 

The outcome of the election is little doubt because the left and the former comic Five Star Movement of Beppe Grillo announced that they unite their voices.

 

Will this have an impact on the conduct of the government?

 

A priori not because the executive left-right led by Enrico Letta can count on the loyalty of its five ministers including former right-dolphin Cavaliere, Angelino Alfano, and a patrol of at least 50 MPs grouped under the new name right center.

 

Calling for “A non- chaotic political situation," Mr. Letta launched a kind of appeal to reason Tuesday stressing that Italy in recession for two years, "has a dramatic need to grow and create jobs".

 

For their part, the "hawks" of Berlusconi camp formalized their passage to the opposition calling Tuesday to vote against the budget bill, on which the government has raised the question of confidence, getting into the night a majority of 171 votes against 135 in the Senate.

 

This is the break of the Berlusconi camp "larghe intese" (“broad agreements") that initially kept Italian press on Wednesday, more than the end of a twenty-year domination by the Cavaliere policy.

 

Some also do not seem to believe, as La Repubblica writes: “Bet Silvio : I will stay at Palazzo Chigi."

 

Corriere della Sera criticized Berlusconi for having chosen the motto "after me the deluge" and Berlusconiens to get with the anti-party movement "Cinq Etoiles (Five Stars)”, ”in an anti- system position, sounding the tocsin of larghe intese even that Germany is preparing to support a grand coalition."

 

"Italian democracy is caught between these two forces" columnist considered Pierluigi Battista.

 

The Berlusconiens announced a protest Wednesday afternoon outside his Roman residence where about 10,000 of them are advertised, while its strongest opponents called to celebrate his downfall near the Senate.

 

Another recurring question: Silvio Berlusconi, stripped of his parliamentary immunity, he could be arrested, for example, in criminal proceedings in Naples where he is accused of having "bought" a senator left in 2006.

 

"This is an absurd hypothesis, in the current situation, completely unreal," said Franco Coppi, one of the lawyers media mogul.

 

"At his age, it is not going to jail except in exceptional cases," said Piercamillo Davigo, former member of the famous Clean Hands anti-corruption pool which had launched the first proceedings against Berlusconi.

 

Until the last moment, Berlusconi tried to avoid the blade of his humiliating expulsion ensuring be sufficient to obtain a retrial Mediaset which resulted August 1 in his first final sentence 20 years of legal troubles evidence.

 

The vote on his dismissal is the result of a law passed in 2012 providing for the ineligibility six years of any elected sentenced to more than two years (the Cavaliere was sentenced to four years, three of which amnesty).

 

Berlusconi announced the next filing an application for review, although his lawyers seemed more cautious Tuesday, noting first want to build "a serious and robust case."

 

Stefano Folli, political expert of the newspaper Il Sole 24 Ore, "a page of history turned and a new chapter begins."

 

"Berlusconi is still and will remain very powerful, even if its power is declining. It still has enormous resources, still has the media (three TV channels, newspapers, ed), got 10 million votes there six months," says the political scientist James Waltson, professor at the American University of Rome.

 

Berlusconi has also hammered himself : He will remain whatever happens at the head of his party Forza Italia refounded.

 

According to surveys carried out on behalf of a coalition of right would collect 24 % of the vote in the event of early elections, "two points higher than the center-left."

Il Cavaliere (Silvio Berlusconi) perde pezzi in Friuli Venezia Giulia Il Cavaliere (Nickname for Silvio Berlusconi from his supporters) loses pieces in Friuli Venezia Giulia

Il Cavaliere (Silvio Berlusconi) perde pezzi in Friuli Venezia Giulia

 

Dopo la ri-nascita di Forza Italia, si consuma lo strappo con Gottardo, Cargnelutti e Ciriani. Il rebus di Tondo. Colautti, preoccupato, venerdì raduna il gruppo

 

TRIESTE.

 

C’è l’entusiasmo di Sandra Savino, Bruno Marini e Massimo Blasoni.

 

Ma anche la concretezza di Alessandro Colautti che venerdì, nel primo gruppo dopo il ritorno di Forza Italia, con le defezioni di Luca Ciriani e Paride Cargnelutti, conterà due posti in meno rispetto a sette mesi fa.

 

«Il problema non è oggi, ma è domani» sottolinea il capogruppo del predellino che non c’è più.

 

Il Cavaliere ha convinto tutti i presenti, questo sì, ma non è riuscito a cancellare dubbi e preoccupazioni di chi teme il passo successivo: il siluramento del governo.

 

Certo, chi ha lavorato pancia a terra per il ritorno al passato esulta.

 

Savino, con Trieste che ha posto le basi per recuperare il controllo della vicenda in vista delle amministrative, già avvia «un’azione di rilancio dell’azione politica del partito, che con il ritorno a Forza Italia vuole guardare al futuro ritrovando energia ed entusiasmo».

 

Il Friuli Venezia Giulia, assicura la parlamentare, farà la sua parte: «La folta presenza di nostri delegati è il segnale che ci sono i presupposti per ripartire e recuperare il consenso per puntare a governare le realtà locali che il prossimo anno andranno al voto».

 

Anche Massimo Blasoni, via Facebook, approva la svolta, per quanti effetti possa avere sul governo Letta: «Più che di bon ton istituzionale il Paese ha bisogno di una scossa. Non è con la mediazione infinita né con l’acquiescenza all’Europa che lo possiamo rilanciare. Come imprenditore e cittadino – insiste l’ex consigliere regionale – sono contento della rinascita di Fi».

 

Il futuro in Fvg? «Vorrei una dirigenza capace di includere e allargare i confini del Pdl. Anche da noi ci sono stati troppi professionisti della politica, troppi dirigenti non c’entravano niente con il liberismo, Berlusconi e le ragioni del lavoro e dell’impresa».

 

Ad applaudire, naturalmente, ci sono anche Elio De Anna e Bruno Marini, “neoforzisti” della prima ora.

 

«Pur concordando con le ragioni dell’altra parte, credo che abbiamo fatto la scelta giusta – dice Marini –. Berlusconi, del resto, si è dimostrato ancora l’unico grande leader dei moderati».

 

Il prossimo capogruppo in Consiglio? «Con la sua presenza a Roma, Colautti ha segnato un bel colpo» osserva il consigliere triestino senza peraltro anticipare decisioni già prese.

 

Non mancano, in tutte le province, altre sincere adesioni al rilancio azzurro.

 

Ma non sono meno forti le incertezze su quello che accadrà nel momento di spartire le leadership e trattare le alleanze con chi ha preferito la linea Alfano.

 

Qualcuno sospetta che, oltre che di Isidoro Gottardo e Cargnelutti, quella linea sia anche di Renzo Tondo, assente a Roma.

 

E se anche parla di «giornata storica che ridisegnerà il futuro dei moderati», Colautti non nasconde che «il percorso è agli inizi», con tutte le difficoltà del caso: «La forma movimento disegnata da Berlusconi è tutta da decifrare».

 

E come recuperare i pezzi persi per strada?

 

I giovani come il vicecoordinatore provinciale di Udine Simone Bressan che dice a chiare lettere: «È un funerale, non un battesimo».

 

E i protagonisti di tante battaglie come Gottardo.

 

L’ex numero uno del Pdl Fvg racconta di essere stato disposto alle dimissioni già prima delle regionali ma di aver prestato «servizio in questi mesi per un impegno preso con Berlusconi».

 

Ma sin d’ora fa capire che si potrà costruire un altro soggetto politico: «Darò un contributo senza parlare mai male di Fi e di chi la guiderà, ma consapevole che la raffigurazione del consiglio nazionale non è rappresentativa della base».

 

Ci starà anche Tondo?

 

«Non lo si dovrà tirare per la giaccia».

Il Cavaliere (Nickname for Silvio Berlusconi from his supporters) loses pieces in Friuli Venezia Giulia

 

After the re-birth of Forza Italia, is consumed with the tear Gottardo, Cargnelutti and Ciriani. The puzzle of Tondo. Colautti, worried, Friday gathers the group

 

TRIESTE.

 

There 's enthusiasm Sandra Savino, Massimo Bruno Marini and Blazon.

 

But the reality of Alexander Colautti that on Friday, in the first group after the return of Forza Italy, with the defection of Luke Ciriani and Paris Cargnelutti, count two places in less than seven months ago.

 

"The problem is not today, but tomorrow" emphasizes the running board of the parent company that no longer exists.

 

The Knight has convinced everyone present, yes, but failed to erase doubts and concerns of those who fear the next step : the dismissal of the government.

 

Sure, who has worked belly on the ground for a return to the past exults.

 

Savino, with Trieste, which has set the stage to regain control of the case in view of the administrative, already start "a re-launch of the political party, that with the return to Force Italy wants to look forward to regaining energy and enthusiasm".

 

The Friuli Venezia Giulia, ensures the parliamentary will do its part : "The large presence of our delegates is a sign that there are prerequisites to share and recover the consensus rule to point to the local realities that next year will go to vote”.

 

Even Maximum Blazon, via Facebook, approves the change, for those effects may have on the government Letta : "Rather than institutional bon ton the country needs a jolt. It is with infinite mediation or with the acquiescence Europe that we can raise. As an entrepreneur and citizen - insists the former regional councilor - are happy with the rebirth of Fi."

 

The future in FVG ? "I want a leadership able to include and expand the boundaries of the PDL. Even here there were too many professional politicians, too many executives had nothing to do with liberalism, Berlusconi and the reasons of work and enterprise."

 

To applaud, of course, there are also Elio De Anna and Bruno Marini, "neoforzisti" the first hour.

 

"While I agree with the reasons of the other party, I think we made the right choice - says Marini - . Berlusconi, for that matter, it still turned out the only major leader of the moderates."

 

The next leader in the Council? "With his presence in Rome, Colautti scored a big hit," notes the director Trieste without anticipate decisions already taken.

 

There are, in all provinces, other sincere accessions to relaunch blue.

 

But they are less strong uncertainties about what will happen in the moment and share the leadership and treat alliances with those who preferred the line Alfano.

 

Some suspect that, in addition to Isidoro Gottardo and Cargnelutti, that line is also Renzo Tondo, absent in Rome.

 

And if you also speaks of "historic day that will redraw the future of the moderates," Colautti no secret that "the path is the beginning," with all the difficulties of the case : "The form of movement designed by Berlusconi is all to decipher."

 

And how to recover the lost pieces on the street?

 

Young people as a provincial deputy coordinator of Udine Simone Bressan says clearly : "It's a funeral, not a baptism."

 

And the protagonists of many battles as Gottardo.

 

The former number one of the PDL Fvg said he was willing to resign even before the regional but had lent “service in recent months to a commitment made to Berlusconi."

 

But as of now understand that you can build another political entity : "I will give a contribution without ever speak ill of Fi, and who will guide you, but aware that the representation of the national council is not representative of the base."

 

There 'll be also Tondo?

 

"Do not you have to pull for the lie."
