Fantasy (Mini-Estrella)
Fantasy is a Mexican "luchador enmascarado", or masked professional wrestler currently working for the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) in their Mini-Estrella division, which does not necessarily mean that Fantasy is a dwarf as several wrestlers who are just shorter in stature work in the "Mini" division. Fantasy's real name is not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from the wrestling fans. He has also been referred to as Fantasy, Jr. and Mini Fantasy to distinguish himself from his father, who wrestled under the name "Fantasy" as well.

Professional wrestling career.
Fantasy trained for his professional wrestling career under his father, a former "Luchador" himself who also used the ring name Fantasy. He made his debut on November 11, 2003 under the name "Fantasy, Jr." and did not work as a Mini-Estrella in his debut match. At the time a different wrestler was working under the name Fantasy in the Mexican professional wrestling promotion International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG), but changed name in 2005 to Sensei. Once the confusion over the name was cleared the Son of Fantasy began competing simply as Fantasy, or sometimes "Mini Fantasy" since he was a regular of the Mini-Estrellas division at that point. Fantasy does | 6,132,401 |

actually not have dwarfism and has during interviews stated his desire to bulk up a little and join the "regular" division.
## Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (2004–present).
Fantasy joined Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), the world's oldest, still existing professional wrestling promotion and started working in their Mini-Estrella division. On July 13, 2007 Fantasy was one of the participants in the inaugural "Pequeños Reyes del Aire" ("Little Kings of the Air") tournament. The tournament was a 9-man "Torneo cibernetico" elimination match to win the "Pequeños Reyes del Aire" trophy, Fantasy was the fourth man eliminated from the match. the following year he once again competed in the | 6,132,402 |
37322784 | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fantasy%20(Mini-Estrella) | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella)
"Pequeños Reyes del Aire" "torneo cibenetico" on January 4, 2008, but this time fared worse as he was eliminated as the second person of the night. In the late summer of 2008 CMLL decided to add a second title to the Mini-Estrella division as they held a Mexican National Lightweight Championship tournament, which saw Fantasy challenge for the title along with 21 other Mini-Estrellas. Fantasy was eliminated during the preliminary round and did not make it to the final. On January 11, 2009 Fantasy was one of 13 Mini-Estrellas to put their mask on the line in a multi-man "Luchas de Apuestas", "mask vs. mask" cage match where the last two wrestlers in the ring had to fight for the right to keep | 6,132,403 |
37322784 | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fantasy%20(Mini-Estrella) | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella)
their mask. This was the Main Event of CMLL's "La Hora Cero" ("Zero Hour") Pay-per-view event, the highest profile match Fantasy had participated in up until this point. Fantasy was the third man to leave the ring, ensuring he kept his mask. On August 18, 2009 Fantasy was once again involved in a multi-man "Luchas de Apuestas" steel cage match, this time with "Mini-Estrellas" and regular sized competitors mixed together. Again Fantasy escaped the match early on, keeping his mask safe.
As part of CMLL's bicentennial celebrations, celebrating the 200th anniversary of Mexico's independence CMLL held a "Torneo Bicentenario" where the winner of the tournament would be "promoted" to compete in the | 6,132,404 |
37322784 | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fantasy%20(Mini-Estrella) | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella)
regular division going forward. The first "cibernetico" match took place on August 10 and saw Demus 3:16 outlast Fantasy, as well as Cisne, Pequeño Olímpico, Pequeño Violencia, Saturno, Pequeño Nitro and Eléctrico. On August 21, 2011 CMLL held a "Ruleta de la Muerte" (Spanish for "Roulette of Death") tournament for the "Mini-Estrellas" division and include Mercurio as one of the participants. The "Ruleta de la Muerte" tournament format is based on the Lucha Libre "Parejas Increibles" match type where two wrestlers of opposite allegiance, have to team up. In a "Ruleta de la Muerte" tournament tag teams face off in a single elimination tournament, but unlike traditional tournaments it is the losing | 6,132,405 |
37322784 | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fantasy%20(Mini-Estrella) | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella)
team that advances in this case. The team that loses the tag team match final must immediately wrestle against each other in a "Lucha de Apuestas" match, where either their mask or their hair is on the line. Fantasy teamed up with Pequeño Black Warrior, losing to the team of Pequeño Universo 2000 and Último Dragóncito, sending them one step closer to having to defend their mask and hair. In the second round the team defeated Astral and Pequeño Violencia and thus did not have to risk their masks later in the tournament. On May 1, 2012 Fantasy was one of 16 Mini-Estrellas to participate in the 2012 version of the "Pequeños Reyes del Aire" tournament as one of 16 competitors but did not win the | 6,132,406 |
37322784 | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fantasy%20(Mini-Estrella) | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella)
tournament.
Over the summer of 2012 CMLL decided to book Fantasy in one of the focal storylines of the Mini-Estrellas division as he began a feud against Mercurio. the storyline started out in Best two out of three falls Six-man tag team matches where the two would focus more on each other than the other men in the ring. As the storyline escalated the two would tear at each other's masks, at times winning by pulling the mask off the other one to gain an unfair advantage. In September, 2012 it was announced that the storyline would culminate in a "Luchas de Apuestas" ("Bet Match") on October 14, 2012, a match where both competitors put their mask on the line. On October 14 Fantasy defeated Mercurio | 6,132,407 |
37322784 | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fantasy%20(Mini-Estrella) | Fantasy (Mini-Estrella)
urio to unmask him as per Lucha Libre traditions. On November 6, 2012, 12 competitors met in a special steel cage match where the loser of the match would be forced to unmask or have his hair shaved completely off. Fantasy was the fifth person to escape the cage, which meant he did not have to unmask. Minutes later, while Mercurio was still on the floor outside the cage Astral dove off the top, but due to the cage mesh breaking earlier in the match, Astral got caught up on the cage and landed awkwardly on Mercurio, Aéreo and Fantasy. The bad fall caused Astral to be rushed out of the arena for immediate attention and Mercurio had to be carried to the back as well due to the impact of Astral. | 6,132,408 |

Myrmekes
Myrmekes are mythical creatures in Greek mythology. Their name is Greek for "ants."
# Mythology.
Greek sailors that arrived in India have told stories of their encounters with the Myrmekes. They are a race of ants that can range in size from small dogs to giant bears which guarded a hill that had rich deposits of gold. The local tribes had to use a rush and grab maneuver to obtain the gold without being killed by the Myrmekes.
# Popular culture.
- The Myrmekes appeared in the "Percy Jackson & the Olympians" book "The Demigod Files" where they were seen in the story "The Bronze Dragon." They end up capturing Charles Beckendorf when he tries to retrieve a Bronze Dragon head that they | 6,132,409 |

have found. Silena Beauregard helped Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase into reassembling the Bronze Dragon so that it can help rescue Charles from the Myrmekes where the Bronze Dragon causes havoc upon the Myrmekes' anthill.
- They also appear in "The Hidden Oracle" story of "The Trials of Apollo". While the god Apollo and his friend, Meg McCaffrey, were walking through the forest to search for two of Apollo's missing kids, they come across the shell of a Myrmekes, which had been cracked in half. Apollo suspected that a strong animal had bit the ant in half. Later, when the two met the Palikoi (geyser gods), one of them, Pete, shined a spotlight and attracted the attention of 3 Myrmekes.

Aboriginal English in Canada
Indigenous English, also known as First Nations English, refers to varieties of English used by the Indigenous peoples of Canada. They are outwardly similar to standard Canadian English from the perspective of a non-Canadian. However, they differ enough from mainstream Canadian speech that Indigenous peoples (the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit) are often identifiable by their speech to non-Indigenous people. This is primarily the result of the influence of non-English accents derived from Indigenous languages combined with a history of geographical and social isolation, since many Aboriginal people live (or formerly lived) in remote communities, in the North, or | 6,132,417 |
37322877 | Aboriginal English in Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Aboriginal%20English%20in%20Canada | Aboriginal English in Canada
on Indian reserves.
Some analyses have concluded that contemporary Indigenous Canadian English may represent the late stages of a decreolization process, among peoples who historically spoke more creolized or pidginized forms of English. Since the 1990s, Indigenous Englishes have also adopted many features of African American Vernacular English under the influence of hip-hop music which is very popular with urban Indigenous youth.
The use of these "non-standard" dialects is not well perceived by the non-Aboriginal majority, evidenced by mockery and discrimination. Some features of the dialects, for example, may have led aboriginal children to be wrongly diagnosed as having a speech impairment | 6,132,418 |
37322877 | Aboriginal English in Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Aboriginal%20English%20in%20Canada | Aboriginal English in Canada
tures of the dialects, for example, may have led aboriginal children to be wrongly diagnosed as having a speech impairment or a learning disability. Academics have begun to recommend that Canadian schools accept Indigenous varieties of English as valid English, and as a part of Indigenous culture.
Few written works appear in Indigenous English dialects; an exception is Maria Campbell's "Stories of the Road Allowance People", a collection of Métis folktales. An example from that work illustrates the type of speech used by Elders in rural Métis communities during her research (thought some stories were collected in Cree or other languages, and translated into dialectical English by Campbell): | 6,132,419 |

37322860 | Ali Zeidan | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ali%20Zeidan | Ali Zeidan
Ali Zeidan
Ali Zeidan (sometimes written as Zidan; ; born 1950) is a former Prime Minister of Libya. He was appointed by the General National Congress on 14 October 2012, and took office on 14 November after Congress approved his cabinet nominees. Prior to the Libyan Civil War, Zeidan was a Geneva-based human rights lawyer and according to the BBC, he is considered by some local observers as a strong-minded liberal. He was ousted by the parliament committee and fled from Libya on 14 March 2014. However, he told the press conference in Rabat, Morocco, that the ousting was invalid.
# Career.
Ali Zeidan served as a diplomat for Libya during the 1970s, serving in India under Ambassador Mohammed | 6,132,443 |
37322860 | Ali Zeidan | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ali%20Zeidan | Ali Zeidan
Magariaf. Both men defected in 1980 and went on to form the National Front for the Salvation of Libya. Zeidan spent nearly three decades in exile in Geneva after the defection.
During the revolution, Zeidan served as the National Transitional Council's Europe envoy, and is credited for playing a key role in persuading French President Nicolas Sarkozy to support the anti-Gaddafi forces.
## Congressman.
On 7 July 2012, Zeidan was elected as an independent congressman for Jufra in the 2012 Congressional election. He ran for the position of Speaker of the Congress, but ultimately lost out to his former opposition colleague Mohammed Magariaf, obtaining 85 votes. On 10 October 2012, Zeidan resigned | 6,132,444 |
37322860 | Ali Zeidan | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ali%20Zeidan | Ali Zeidan
his seat in Congress.
## Prime Minister.
Following Mustafa Abushagur's unsuccessful attempt to form a government, Zeidan resigned his seat in Congress and ran for the position of Prime Minister against the Justice and Construction Party's favoured candidate, Mohammed Al-Harari. Zeidan was elected Prime Minister-designate by a vote of 93 to 85, with two weeks to submit his proposed new government for approval by Congress. Zeidan was reported to have been supported by members of Congress belonging to the generally liberal National Forces Alliance (organized by Mahmoud Jibril), as well as by certain independents informally affiliated as the Workers group (with 20 members) and the Southern group | 6,132,445 |
37322860 | Ali Zeidan | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ali%20Zeidan | Ali Zeidan
(with 31).
Zeidan's cabinet was approved by Congress on 31 October 2012, although six of its members were referred for investigation into alleged links to the former Gaddafi regime. All six were subsequently cleared of the charges and Zeidan's government was sworn in on 14 November. Zeidan's cabinet avowedly aimed at geographical as well as political balance, including ministers from the National Forces Alliance, the Justice and Construction Party, and independents.
Zeidan was quoted as promising at his swearing-in that his government would abide by the Constitutional Declaration and "give its utmost best to the nation based on the rule of law, human rights, democracy, rights, and the belief | 6,132,446 |
37322860 | Ali Zeidan | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ali%20Zeidan | Ali Zeidan
in God, His Prophet and a state based on Islam".
# Kidnappings.
## 2013.
Zeidan was kidnapped by armed militants from the Corinthia Hotel in Tripoli during the early morning of 10 October 2013 and taken to an undisclosed location.
The group Joint Operations Room of Libya's Revolutionaries said they abducted Zeidan as a reaction to his government's alleged involvement in the American capture of Anas al-Liby, and his statements in late September calling for international assistance in building an official army and police force.
Zeidan was freed hours later.
## 2017.
Zeidan was kidnapped again on August 14, 2017, by an armed group, being taken from a hotel in the Libyan capital of Tripoli. | 6,132,447 |
37322860 | Ali Zeidan | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ali%20Zeidan | Ali Zeidan
On 22 August, he was released without any reasons given by his kidnappers after being held for ten days in Tripoli and was taken near to Mehary Radisson Blu hotel.
# Dismissal.
On 11 March 2014, the rogue oil tanker Morning Glory left the rebel port of Sidra, Libya, with Libyan oil that had been confiscated by the rebels. Ali Zeidan had promised to stop the departure, but failed. The same day, Zeidan was reported to have been ousted by the parliament committee and then to have fled to Europe, although fleeing the country was banned for him. However, he told the press conference in Rabat, Morocco, that the ousting was invalid.

All Saints Church, Lydd
All Saints' Church, also known as Lydd Church or The Cathedral on the Marsh, is a church in Lydd, Kent, South East England. It belongs to the Diocese of Canterbury. All Saints is the longest parish church in Kent at , and also has one of the tallest towers in the county at . The church is thought to incorporate a small Romano-British basilica possibly built in the 5th century, though most of the current fabric is medieval. It was associated with local fraternities or guilds in the 15th century and could seat 1,000 people at a time. Severely damaged by World War II bombing, the church was subsequently restored and is now a Grade I listed building.
# History.
The church | 6,132,457 |
37323035 | All Saints Church, Lydd | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=All%20Saints%20Church,%20Lydd | All Saints Church, Lydd
was long thought to be Saxon in origin, but recent studies have dated the oldest section to the latter half of the 5th century, making it Romano-British. It appears to incorporate a very small basilica which had an apse, an arcade on the north side of three bays, and an elaborate porch on the west side. This is considerably different from Anglo-Saxon churches, leading to a Romano-British attribution.
In the fifteenth century, a number of Fraternities or Guilds of lay parishioners were connected with the church. Each of these fraternities held services in a different part of the church, either at a special altar of its patron saint, or before the image of that saint; and each fraternity maintained | 6,132,458 |

a light before the altar, or image of its patron. In the fifteenth century, the Fraternities were those of the Holy Trinity, All Saints, St. James, St. Peter, St. Mary, St. Katherine, St. John the Baptist, and St. George. In the following century, St. Barbara, St. Anthony, St. Mildred, and St. Nicholas were added. The church registers for christenings and marriages began in 1542 and for burials in 1539.
The church interior was restored in the 18th century when box pews were replaced with oak pews to give a seating capacity of 1,000. The church was extensively damaged during World War II; in 1940 the chancel was destroyed by a stray bomb; being re-built after the war in the early English style | 6,132,459 |
37323035 | All Saints Church, Lydd | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=All%20Saints%20Church,%20Lydd | All Saints Church, Lydd
and removing the Victorian 'restoration' of the east end. Rectors include Thomas Wolsey (who later became Cardinal) though it is doubtful that he ever attended, as he held a number of churches in plurality, employing a curate and keeping the tithes for himself.
The church became a Grade I listed building on 28 November 1950.
# Architecture and fittings.
All Saints is the longest parish church in Kent at . The stone church is built in three styles, Early English, Decorated, and Perpendicular. The church, built of ragstone rubble with a tiled roof, received pews and a new roof over the nave during the reigns of Edward IV and Richard III. The west tower, at 132 feet, is one of the tallest in | 6,132,460 |

Kent, with a fine peal of eight bells, recast in 1926 from an earlier, 17th century peal of five. This tower is dated to between 1435 and 1450 and is crenellated with 4 crockets. The roof of the nave contains moulded and battlemented tie-beams, ornamental bracket-shaped wall-pieces, moulded wall plates, octagonal king posts.
There was a chapel dedicated to St Mary, an altar and a chapel of St. John the Baptist, in one of the side chancels; there were altars dedicated to St Peter, the Holy Trinity, and St James. A window depicting the Seven Sacraments was bequeathed in 1476 by John Seawlys.
A collection of 17 brasses are commonly kept from view beneath the nave carpet. Within the church, the | 6,132,461 |

ancient family of Godfrey of Lydd are represented by a brass in the 13th-century nave which has the date 1430 upon it, and a bust set in the north wall of the chancel. Descendants of this family are to be found on World War I and II memorials. The church was adorned with paintings, and writings provided by churchwarden John Marketman in 1611. Around 1428, new organs were purchased, which were repaired 26 years later. The church contains a 16th-century memorial to Thomas Godfrey and an effigy of Sir Walter de Meryl, Lord of the Manor of Jacques Court. Also of note is a roundel carved in marble by John Flaxman, dedicated to Anne Russell and her son.

# Grounds.
The earliest existing tomb in the churchyard belongs to the Strugell family and dates from 1551. Extrapolating from the work of the late Mr. Leland Duncan, "The Monumental Inscriptions in Lydd Church and Churchyard", it is evident that a large number of sailors rest in the parish churchyard, all victims of the stormy seas along this dangerous coast. Of these, six were drowned with the wreck of the "Northfleet" in January 1873, and Tom Edgar who was with Captain Cook in 1779. The tower overlooks an old holm oak, on top of which rest heron nests. | 6,132,463 |

Quartiere Varesina
Quartiere Varesina is a small district, "quartiere", of Milan, located in the suburban north-west part of the city. It belongs on the Zone 8 administrative division of the city.
Its name derived from "Strada della Varesina", meaning "Road for Varese", the pre-alpine city 50 km. at north of Milan.
# Characteristics.
"Quartiere Varesina" is the district located to east of Via Varesina, having Viale Espinasse as central axis that extends from Piazzale Accursio up to the Svincolo of Viale Certosa. It's a highly urbanized area consists of a set of uninterrupted houses, buildings, small and medium-sized enterprises, medium-sized offices, old and recent. The district does not | 6,132,478 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
have a definite urban plan, developed as the industrial outskirts of the city with green spaces practically nil. Still today, the industrial part of the neighborhood is changing.
Quartiere Varesina name is unknown to most people, because the name is derived from a road, "Strada della Varesina", fully incorporated into the city, and this road is less important than in the past when it was the only connection from Milan to the outside in the direction of Varese, even if, the name, "Via Varesina", remained. Furthermore, Via Varesina is the demarcation of a side of the neighborhood and not its axis. The neighborhood for his difference is often indicated with the name of one of its streets, "Espinasse", | 6,132,479 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
or with known locations or areas that are located in its vicinity, "Certosa", "Highway for Lakes", "Viale Certosa", "Musocco", "Garegnano" or pairs of names "Varesina-Espinasse", "Certosa-Musocco" and so on.
A bit of numbers:
- Via Varesina measures 1.7 km.
- the stretch of Viale Certosa belonging to the district, between Piazzale Accursio and Svincolo Viale Certosa, is 1.4 km. long
- The border with Svincolo Viale Certosa between Viale Certosa and railway 900 m.

# History.
## Border to the city.
Quartiere Varesina occupies part of the surface of the Musocco municipality abolished in 1923 which began from "Strada della Varesina" and bordered to Milan along Cagnola. The boundary of the district to the city is similar to that subdivision, despite the transformations that have occurred, indicated as Piazzale Accursio perimeter and the adjacent streets connecting to the beginning of Via Varesina.
## Three new main roads.
The area takes shape in the second half of the | 6,132,481 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
nineteenth century with the construction of three great ways that change the geography, clearly separating the old centers:
- Turin–Milan railway around 1860
- "Viale Certosa" going from the city to Greater Cemetery of Milan at the end of 1800s
- the driveway to Lakes Highway, separating Garegnano's borgo from its preeminent church, Certosa di Garegnano built in 1300.
"Strada della Varesina" was of ancient age. This four roads delimite the district.
The new driveway for Lakes Highway, bisects Garegnano, leaving the Certosa di Garegnano on one side and the village of houses on the other. In fact, the old village of Garegnano, Garegnano Marcido, in the new geography then becomes part of Quartiere | 6,132,482 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
Varesina. This division between the two areas is even more clear with the construction of the flyover del Ghisallo in 1960.
Quartiere Varesina encompasses, at the time of the dissolution of Musocco municipality, Garegnano Marcido village, the houses along "Strada della Varesina" from Cagnola to the railway, the historic core around the current Piazzale Santorre of Santarosa, up to the driveway of the newly inaugurated Lakes Highway, becoming an industrial suburb of Milan.
## Analysis of the area.
In the development of the area between these main roads, you can find a division at the height of Piazzale Santorre di Santarosa:
- the south with:
- Viale Carlo Espinasse, parallel street of Via | 6,132,483 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
Varesina, as the major axis south–north
- develops mainly for residential use being closer to the city center
- Viale Espinasse highly populated
- proximity to the area indicated as Cagnola
- reference church: Saint Marcelina and Saint Joseph, Viale Espinasse, 85
- the north with features:
- Via Barnaba Oriani as the major axis east–west, ancient connection between Strada della Varesina and Certosa di Garegnano
- undergoes a predominantly industrial development being proximity to the exit from Milan
- Viale Espinasse uninhabited
- vicinity to Milano Certosa railway station
- reference church: Certosa di Garegnano
Via Ludovico di Breme built in the early nineteens can be considered | 6,132,484 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
as a dividing line between these two areas.
# Center of the district.
The center of the neighborhood can be considered Piazzale Santorre di Santarosa which is the junction of the district and the nearby church of Viale Espinasse, 85.
The church, dedicated to Saint Marcellina and Saint Joseph, was commissioned in 1958 by Cardinal Montini as reads a plaque inside the church and dedicated to St. Marcellina by Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini, Archbishop of Milan, December 9, 1983 and then also dedicated to St. Joseph, to which was added the suffix "to the Certosa", with clear reference to the nearby Certosa di Garegnano. The square in front of it was used for parking until the end of the 90s was | 6,132,485 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
placed in the garden. It's a recreational point with the attached oratory equipped of football field, locker room, small green area.
The commercial activities of shops gravitate around Viale Espinasse, has always crossed by the passage of trams, currently with 19 line. The old shops are now extinct, remain bar, call centers, real estate agencies, ethnic clubs, hairdressers, a hotel, a pharmacy, a bank and the shopping center Billa.
# Prominent buildings.
In Piazzale Santorre di Santarosa we find:
- the old seat of the municipality of Musocco, at No. 10, became in time even Casa del Fascio and now Green Cross Sempione home
- the War Memorial of Musocco inaugurated in 1924 with the names | 6,132,486 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
of the fallen of the municipality during the First World War and restored in 2008.
Few meters further at Via De Rossi, 2 there is the "primary school" "Alfredo Cappellini.
In Viale Espinasse, corner Viale Certosa, in 1951 was built the service station Agip, designed by the architect Mario Bacciocchi, which still exists but only partially used. The structure of the station, which combines the right angle of the two boulevards, looks like a ship that rises from the road surface, giving a sense of dynamism and plasticity, a work considered to be of architectural merit.
# 20th century.
The history and growth of the district is related to its position as a crossroads for the North-West of the | 6,132,487 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
province and the region to Novara, Varese, Como and its distance from the center of Milan, about 6–7 km.
## Housing.
The part of the district along the axis of Viale Espinasse up to Piazzale di Santorre Santarosa is rapidly built for residential use from the 30s. The passage of the tram along the way, if on the one hand contributes to the noise, on the other gives rise to shops and stores for the visibility of the road. In the streets that intersect it, Via Marcantonio dal Re, Via Casella, Via Mola, Via Nuvolone, arise a mixture of small businesses, buildings, small houses still partly standing. Engine of development of the area is also nearby, just a few hundred meters, automobile factory | 6,132,488 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
Alfa Romeo at Portello which employs thousands of workers, reducing activity from the 60s onwards, until the end of the 80s. Over time, small companies in the area gradually give way to new homes, meanwhile shops and stores are anyway replaced by new businesses, such as Standa opened a shopping center, Fiat and Opel a dealership. At the end of the 90s is completely redone the road surface, uneven for years for the passage of trams.
The expansion of housing for the part of the quarter in proximity of Svincolo Viale Certosa, is later for industrial presence in its territory, and since the 60s and 70s onwards. The ancient road connecting to the Charterhouse of Garegnano, Via Barnaba Oriani, changes | 6,132,489 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
its appearance. The latest farms, in the half way, in the 70s and 80s are replaced from buildings of 7-9 floors with the adjacent Via Pannunzio, gradually erasing any memory of the old village Garegnano Marcido. No trace remains today of the birthplace of Barnaba Oriani and the villa of Petrarch origin.
Even the gardens of Via Trapani in time disappear and only the farm house numbers 44 and 48 with the Osteria del 48 and some home degraded reminiscent of the old village. The traffic changes, the one-way between Viale Espinasse and Via Luciano from the direction toward the Certosa, has been directed to Viale Espinasse to alleviate traffic along the inhabited part.
In the 90s the shrine with | 6,132,490 |

The municipal building of Via Ludovico di Breme, 59 which in the past had been a nursing home was demolished at the end of the 90s and the space is now lying unused.
Viale Certosa, traditional access to the city and close to the Fieramilanocity, is the ideal place to be able to welcome tourists or people engaged in business. Arise at the intersection of Via Casella, Hotel Casella, 104-106, which becomes | 6,132,491 |
37323003 | Quartiere Varesina | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quartiere%20Varesina | Quartiere Varesina
enlarged Hotel Mirage and Hotel Raffaello, 108. At 184-200 you instead build the barracks popular, local residents grow considerably. Towards the avenue of plane trees a series of windows of buildings, are largely catering facilities or service centers and at the intersection with Via Polidoro da Caravaggio, numbering 150, a Buffetti Group shop, office products.

from outside or from Milan has contributed to its industrial vocation.
Even the Milano Certosa railway station was used to transport goods: a railroad from Alfa Romeo at Portello came in the neighborhood in Via Giovanni da Udine, ran through the present Via Pannunzio to go through the fields in Via Alassio where it entered in the station, time that look far away as slightly different is the geography of the district. Still remains, however, a small stretch of the track of that railroad in Via Giovanni da Udine, Viale Certosa corner.
Over time, especially from the 70s onwards, small industrial activities have been converted, closed or relocated. The industrial goods were replaced by companies | 6,132,494 |
