Pressure Points On Neck To Make Someone Sleep
I never concerned nor art nor anything that was related to it.
The top of the third year school trip included a visit in Andria, near Bari, near Castel del Monte. What did I know of that lovely piece of architecture? To this I respond. Professor Martini, history teacher, was very fussy about it. I had to study the history of the castle, learning tested with a long and agonizing question. However, I was surprised at how the mysterious charm of the place had attracted my curiosity.
Built between 1229 and 1249, by Frederick II of Hoenstaufen, the "stupor mundi", was considered an original structure imbued with symbolic meanings. Unfortunately, over the years suffered a state of disrepair, used as a prison or a haven for bandits before being purchased by the Italian who commissioned the works necessary for the restoration. In 1996 it became part of UNESCO world heritage, thanks to well-proportioned forms. The most essential characteristic of the castle was in the octagonal structure, with eight towers, a number that appeared in many details. Some historians argued that the castle would reflect the soul of Frederick, as if the king wanted to give every detail in his multifaceted personality. Federico II loved that Puglia is known for sure, who would like to grow what was described as stone flower, was due to that feeling gutted.
"Look, Delia, Luke is staring at you from a lot," she whispered in my ear Ines.
"Ignore it" was my reply.
"For you it is easy to snub a nice guy, right?" Broke Licia overlooking the back seat.
"I'm not interested in who plays with the feelings of others. Change girlfriend every two days, "I explained.
"I do not think" I rest assured of my convictions.
"We are almost there," Professor Martin hastened to give instructions to his pupils "I beseech you formed an orderly queue and do not push." \u200b\u200b "Yes, Teacher!" We replied in unison. 
detained the bus, despite the recommendations of-l'insegnante, appears more like a crazed herd that high school students.
"Please, guys!" Repeated the Professor in vain. "Silence!" Was backed by Professor of Mathematics Vitali. He was a tall and sturdy, with thick gray beard. His questions were our suffering, is a rapid descent to hell, through applications to trap and looks ironclad. It was the only one who could intimidate students and be able to get some respect. "If not formed an orderly queue within a minute, you are well prepared to go back on the bus." detained the bus, despite the recommendations of-l'insegnante, appears more like a crazed herd that high school students. 
"Someone tell me," coughed the Martini "which are the characteristics of the entrance?" the usual Saputelli raise your hand. "Romano" my last name thundered in the air. The fellow turned to look. "I noticed an interest in this building, it will inform the entire class." Embarrassed at having to repeat here, in the open air, I took a deep breath before answering. "The portal, made of coral rubble, limestone and marble, as well as other elements of the castle, has two statues of lions, one with an eye toward the sunrise at the winter solstice, the other with a glance pointing in the direction of sunrise at the summer solstice. The steps are placed on either side, so that anyone who does not supply the bait back to the castle. It is interpreted as a form of respect for Frederick II. ".
"Exactly," confirmed Professor "but there is another curiosity: looking at the portal closed, you can see a detail. Imagining you divide it into equal parts you will notice two F, one of the footprints left by the emperor, is not it interesting? ". "Yes, Professor," replied the pupil, it was clear their disinterest. was when I entered the building that something disturbed me. The feeling of a rock that weighed on my heart increased with every step as if, at any moment, something terrible would happen. (CONTINUED)
