Buried in concrete: mafia architecture
Mobsters changed the shape of Italian cities, ravaging landscapes with concrete to affirm their authority. At the end of the 1970s, the mafia super boss Michele Greco, nicknamed Ôthe PopeÕ, gave his blessing for the construction of 314 illegal villas on Pizzo Sella, a cape on the gulf of Palermo that dominates the city.
A view of Palermo where, between the 1960s and 1970s, politicians tied to the Mafia ordered the demolition of splendid art nouveau mansions to make space for brutalist tower blocks, covering vast natural and garden areas with tonnes of cement. It is one of the darkest chapters in the post-war urbanisation of Sicily, and would go down in history as the Sack of Palermo.

REPORTAGE: Indien: Schule für Arme die Hoch hinaus wollen
INDIA’s School for the Poor but Gifted
“If one is accepted to walk into this door; He will walk out with all the doors of the world probably thrown open to him”.
So remarked student Satish Kumar,18, casually pointing towards the tattered tin door of the Ramanujan School of mathematics located amidst the narrow muddy water logged bylanes of Patna, Bihar.
He continues,“Me and many others like me are examples of this, in spite of being poor we now feel of being second to none.”
The reason for Satish kumar’s new found confidence is that he is one amongst the 30 of the poorest but talented students in Bihar who had been selected to be a part of a batch known as the SUPER 30, and who after a complete year’s hard work have now passed the entrance test of the IIT JEE 2009 (Indian Institute of Technology’s Joint Entrance Examination ) with flying colors.
This guarantees him a berth in one of the 15 IIT’s spread across India, the topmost & elitist Technology Colleges in India; the Indian equivalent of the Ivy league colleges. IITs are the technological haven and boast of an alumni like Sabeer Bhatia, the inventor of Hotmail & N.R. Narayana Murthy founder of Infosys and many others who are right now running the most prestigious blue chip companies around the world. It can lay claim of having created some of the world’s brightest tech wizards and engineering geniuses in recent times.
With such credentials it is given that the IITs are notoriously selective in their admission procedure. About 384,977 students took their Joint Entrance Test (IIT-JEE) this year, hankering after 8,295 seats, indicating an admission rate of around two per cent, the most competitive in the world. (That at Princeton, Yale, and Harvard hovers around nine per cent).?
“Our only hope of entry into IIT and out of poverty was the SUPER 30. It was our only talisman.” Says another successful student Nagendra Ram.
Super-30 is what dreams are made of. A sweeper?

REPORTAGE: Indien: Schule für Arme die Hoch hinaus wollen
INDIA’s School for the Poor but Gifted
“If one is accepted to walk into this door; He will walk out with all the doors of the world probably thrown open to him”.
So remarked student Satish Kumar,18, casually pointing towards the tattered tin door of the Ramanujan School of mathematics located amidst the narrow muddy water logged bylanes of Patna, Bihar.
He continues,“Me and many others like me are examples of this, in spite of being poor we now feel of being second to none.”
The reason for Satish kumar’s new found confidence is that he is one amongst the 30 of the poorest but talented students in Bihar who had been selected to be a part of a batch known as the SUPER 30, and who after a complete year’s hard work have now passed the entrance test of the IIT JEE 2009 (Indian Institute of Technology’s Joint Entrance Examination ) with flying colors.
This guarantees him a berth in one of the 15 IIT’s spread across India, the topmost & elitist Technology Colleges in India; the Indian equivalent of the Ivy league colleges. IITs are the technological haven and boast of an alumni like Sabeer Bhatia, the inventor of Hotmail & N.R. Narayana Murthy founder of Infosys and many others who are right now running the most prestigious blue chip companies around the world. It can lay claim of having created some of the world’s brightest tech wizards and engineering geniuses in recent times.
