Pier Angeli Tribute

Here is a wonderful song by the divine Edda Dell’Orso, chosen to illustrate the beauty of the lovely Italian star Pier Angeli.

The revelation was among those contained in the company’s emails, which were dumped onto bittorrent networks after hackers with cyber protest group “Anonymous” broke into their systems. In another document unearthed by “Anonymous,” one of HBGary’s employees also mentioned gaming geolocation services to make it appear as though selected fake persons were at actual events. “There are a variety of social media tricks we can use to add a level of realness to all fictitious personas,” it said.
