excellent vortex analysis, nothing to criticize.

It's a woman. Sorry about the gender...

how to access the case ranking?

Fifth, not third (I remembered wrong). I reported the article.

There is a lot of Europe in the ranking of the 20 most livable cities in the world compiled by Monocle, an English weekly of international profile, and reported by the International Herald Tribune. A lot of Europe, but not a bit of Italy. Because none of our cities has the necessary characteristics to be included in the top 20.
In first place is Munich, for its “winning combination of high quality of living, low crime rate, liberal policies, strong media power.” Germany reappears in 18th place with Hamburg. Copenhagen's second place is no surprise; it is young, dynamic, and creative, and Zurich comes in third (Geneva, however, is twentieth and makes the list by a hair). In fourth place, surprisingly, is Tokyo, recognized for some key features: “very quiet residential streets, low crime rate, excellent restaurants, and an extraordinarily efficient transport system.” Sydney, the sunny Australian metropolis, is in seventh place, and to find the only American city, you have to go down to ninth place: Honolulu. Spain also has two cities in the ranking, with Madrid in tenth place and Barcelona in thirteenth. Paris cannot be left out, but it only ranks nineteenth.
The criteria by which the cities were chosen are varied. They range from the presence of infrastructure, such as efficient airports, to the transport system and the cost/quality ratio of public transport and taxis. Then there is safety, calculated based on the homicide and burglary rates, the quality of schools and hospitals, the power of the media, and the availability of international media. However, the judges of Monocle, who plan to update the ranking every year, also considered other parameters deemed crucial for a good quality of life: hours of sunlight and the annual average temperature, opening hours of bars and shops (is it easy to get a drink at one in the morning?), the level of connectivity (Munich was also awarded for its nearly 500 Wi-Fi hotspots), and the level of tolerance, considered in a comprehensive manner (gay, different ethnicities, female employment).
The complete ranking:
1. Munich
2. Copenhagen
3. Zurich
4. Tokyo
5. Vienna
6. Helsinki
7. Sydney
8. Stockholm
9. Honolulu
10. Madrid
11. Melbourne
12. Montreal
13. Barcelona
14. Kyoto
15. Vancouver
16. Auckland
17. Singapore
18. Hamburg
19. Paris
20. Geneva

@ contemplation: yes, the Sachertorte comes from the hotel of the same name, but the recipe belonged to a chef from the imperial family, who, after the empire ended, was hired by the hotel (attached to the opera) and took ownership of the recipe. Yes, schnitzel is spelled like that and the Augustin Keller is still there. There is still alcohol. There is drugs. In Vienna, life is incredibly good. And it's not just my opinion. According to a reputable international statistics agency, Vienna is the third best city in the world, considering 42 social factors, including pollution, employment, crime, traffic, leisure, recycling, education, med per capita... and so on. The lifestyle is abundantly pleasant. The government is definitely better, very few real wastes. I’ll stop here..

I'm not following you, Vortex. Please summarize calmly and try to be schematic, thanks. Then we can talk about it, okay?

mopaga, this is not a movie for the finale, I don’t know if I make myself clear. It’s not a novel. It’s not a thriller. It’s not that what you read will ruin the story. It should be watched to trigger certain mechanisms, certainly not for a pleasant Disney-like evening...

hello contemplation. the young man has great potential, then he deflates. true. in the end, he gets overwhelmed by things...he quickly gets tired of fighting. true.

It's incredible, the editors corrected the stars without me writing an email. I'm surprised. Thanks to the editor who got involved.
