Opera "Cagliostro Nobile Viaggiatore" - The stage designing
The visual art works of Angelo Arrigo for the stage designing of the opera “Cagliostro Nobile Viaggiatore” Palermo (Italy-Sicily) – 2nd, 10th, 11th June 2006- The opera “Cagliostro Nobile Viaggiatore” has been performed at the monumental building “Santa Maria dello Spasimo”. It was organized by Ninetta Cangialosi and directed by Lenin Moreno. Angelo Arrigo has directed the stage designing and all the aspects of the visual arts by projecting the images of seven of his most famous fine art paintings. In particular, the opera, between the 4th and the 9th scene (the last one), has benefited from the experience of the cosmopolitan author of visual arts/fine art painting/ set & stage designing, Angelo Arrigo, as well as from a wide and impressive mix of special visual effects (lighting,etc…) and projections of seven of his visual art masterpieces (Ombre, Trasformation, L’uomo e il karma, Tentacles of the Consciousness, Abysmal distances, Untitled 1, and detail of sky with ray of sunlight , from “Parent & child- Dialogues about Nam Myo Ho Renge Kyo, the fundamental Law of the Life andthe Universe”), which revealed themselves to be a decisive factor to sketchthe innovative portrait of Cagliostro’s character, proposed by Ninetta Cangialosi, after she having been studied Cagliostro in depth for several years

Gen 2009- In 2 bookshops per town to make culture develop
During the last public meeting the Artist Angelo Arrigo said, referring to the city of Palermo (but stating that his plan for Integrated Brand Communications provides the same for every city in Italy and abroad), which in its programs is the desire to forge a solid agreement with a modern multimedia library/bookshop, and especially always based on dialogue and sincere friendship and mutual appreciation. The ideal store should be able to create the cosmopolitan brand experience by the proposal, which aims to revive the emotional context (which the Artist has already well-tested abroad), using video-walls or flat screens for video projection. Also crucial will be the presence of good music in stereo. Indeed Angelo Arrigo feels really important to expand its network through the library, of both kinds (modern and thematic), just to support the book’s market in order to stimulate the spread of culture among people from all over the world. The culture is still crucial to the development of bridges of dialogue and thus create more contexts of peace.

March 16th'09- First birthday of Angelo Arrigo Network
One year later I am happy to celebrate, at least via web, with all my dear customers and wonderful ambassadors the birth of the distribution network Angelo Arrigo and "The Completeness of the Incomplete". Also doubly happy to have this coincidence of dates with the Kosen-Rufu Day of 16 March 1958, which was an event that, as a member of SGI I am proud to commemorate and use as an incentive to achieve more and more a huge increase in personal life and faith.

At n.23 in Greek Theater Street, in fact, is the showroom of Domenico Cannizzaro (artistic ceramics) who married the Brand Image and concept of Angelo Arrigo and from now on, will propose an impressive integration of art prints by Angelo Arrigo among their pieces of artistic ceramics.

September 09,2009.- Obama's Health Care Speech
September 09, 2009.- Very demanding, determined and difficult Obama's Health Care Speech delivered tonight...coming soon-------------President Obama’s health care speech was aired live on all of the major networks and CNN tonight. Obama began his speech with two key statements: “I can say with confidence that we have pulled this economy back from the brink.” “I am not the first President to take up this cause [health care], but I am determined to be the last.” He went on to state that 30,000,000 American citizens are without coverage. We spend 1 and a ½ times more than any other country and we have worse coverage. We know we must reform this system. Democrats believe that we should have a system like Canada’s, while Republicans believe we should end employer based systems, and let employees get their own health care coverage. Obama stated that we must bring the best ideas of both parties together. This plan has three basic goals: to provide more security to those who have coverage, bring insurance to those who don’t have coverage, and to slow the growth of health care costs. Obama stated that if you already have insurance…there will be no change. This plan will add some benefit to you. Under this plan, you cannot be denied coverage for a pre-existing condition. It will be against the law to drop your coverage or limit it. There will be a limit on out of pocket expenses, and prescription drugs. All insurance companies will be required to cover the basics of preventive care. President Obama proposed a public insurance exchange – for new small businesses and people who are not covered and will be able to shop for affordable health insurance. Tax credits will be provided for people who do not have insurance. Obama expects this public insurance exchange to be up and running within 4 years. And immediate affordable health care coverage will be available for those who cannot afford it…Obama said that no one should go broke because of a health problem. Under this plan, everyone will be required to have health insurance, just as auto insurance coverage is currently required. Obama recognized John McCain for his ideas on insurance health care from his presidential campaign, and said he used some of his ideas in this plan. Obama mentioned that none of this insurance coverage will cover abortions. Obama stated that: consumers do better when there is choice and competition. In 34 states, 75% of the health care insurance companies are controlled by just 5 companies. These insurance reforms would keep those companies honest. This "Public Insurance Option" would only be an option for those who do not have insurance. He believes that less than 5% of the American public will sign up for this coverage. The “Public Insurance Option” would provide a good deal for consumers. He compared this plan to something like Medicare. If an American can’t find affordable coverage, Obama said they will be provided with a choice. The public insurance option will compete with private insurance companies. President Obama went on to say that he will not sign a plan that adds any money to the deficit. Cuts will be made if the savings he promises don’t materialize. Obama believes that this plan will cost less than 900 billion dollars over 10 years, and will be paid for with money already being spent (and he mentioned that this is less than the war). Obama mentioned Intermountain Health Care in Utah and another insurance company in California and how they can currently offer low cost health care, and that clearly it is possible for some companies can do this, and make a profit. President Obama mentioned that this plan will take some time and effort to be ironed out, and received quite a loud chuckle on that one. Obama mentioned that we cannot fail at this...too many Americans are depending on us to provide quality health care. The speech lasted about 45 minutes.

US President Barack Obama has been awarded the 2009 Nobel Peace
US President Barack Obama has been awarded the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize. “My best congratulations to President Barak Obama. I am sure that he is a good leader for everybody over the planet. I am sure that also citizens from Middle East desire to build bridges of sincere and genuine dialogue with such a coherent man! And I am sure and happy to see several leaders around the World growing up emerging with the same spirit of Obama. The planet needs such genuine innovators, based on a great world’s view and vision of life.” (Angelo Arrigo). The Nobel Committee said he won it for "his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation between peoples". The committee highlighted Mr Obama's efforts to support international bodies and promote nuclear disarmament. President Obama - woken up with the news early on Friday - said in an address at the White House that he was "surprised and deeply humbled" by the award. He said he did not feel he deserved to be in the company of some of the "transformative figures" who had previously received the award. Speaking outside the White House, he said he would accept the prize as a "call to action". "Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future," the Norwegian committee said in a statement. "His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world's population." Asked why the prize had been awarded to Mr Obama less than a year after he took office, Nobel Committee head Thorbjoern Jagland said: "It was because we would like to support what he is trying to achieve". "It is a clear signal that we want to advocate the same as he has done," he said. He specifically mentioned Mr Obama's work to strengthen international institutions and work towards a world free of nuclear arms.

23 Oct 2009 - Angelo Arrigo® opens his official Facebook page
Yes, dear friends! My decision to enter an official page on Facebook is part of the strategic plan of integrated communication focused on my two Brands Angelo Arrigo ® and The Completeness of the Incomplete ®. This action is directed to provide patient and gradual spread of brand awareness within the context of web-communities . Currently I will not take any action to advertising this new page on Facebook. In fact I would prefer to keep buiding genuine bridges of dialogue through the use of world of mouth. The page is a further opportunity to provide my supporters with another way of dialogue. --- (Angelo Arrigo)
