Ver políticas de cookies August Wilson’s national renown and profile have reached new heights in recent years as celebrities like Denzel Washington have brough the Century Cycle to the big screen his legacy achieved a new milestone last year when “Jitney” made its debut in Vicenza The effort was the first-ever Italian translation and stage performance of Wilson’s 1982 work and spearheaded by award-winning Italian director Renzo Carbonera the filmmaker visited the University Library System (ULS) to discuss what it took to bring the project to life The event featured recorded excerpts from the Italian production, which illuminated contemporary social and cultural commentary on challenges like increased immigration and subsequent racism in Italy. Carbonera also participated in a Q&A with Chris Rawson theater critic and early champion of Wilson’s work Lina Insana, Pitt’s director of Italian graduate studies and lead organizer of Pittsburgh’s Italian Film Festival USA has long been familiar with Rawson and his efforts to amplify Wilson’s work She also first introduced Carbonera to the famed Pittsburgh playwright in 2019 when she invited Carbonera to be the film festival’s closing night director Carbonera was committed to honoring Wilson and worked with the Teatro Astra in Vicenza to make “Jitney” his first play production That’s where Insana — and her translation students — came in The students spent part of the semester reviewing Carbonera’s translation and offering input during Zoom calls with the director about August Wilson and the cultural context of Pittsburgh,” said Insana “They did a great job giving input on many translation choices the translator in Italy made as she tried to evoke August Wilson’s ‘Jitney,’ set in Pittsburgh in the ’70s The production was significant for Wilson’s legacy and Pitt, as much as it was for Italian theater, given the cast was composed entirely of Italian actors of African origin. Film and media studies professor Carl Kurlander students and team members from University Communications and Marketing traveled to Italy to document the experience and Pitt's involvement and I know they did a lot of digging to figure this out it’s the first all-Black cast in contemporary Italian theater,” she said And it won’t be the last. The Wilson Project — launched by Pitt, Italian theater company La Piccionaia Centro Produzione, the August Wilson Legacy LLC and the University of Padua’s Department of Linguistic and Literary Studies — was created after the Vicenza production to promote knowledge and understanding of Wilson and his work and present “Jitney” on more Italian stages. Insana described the progress that has already occurred as incredible and essential. “Something I teach in my classes at Pitt is the very complicated legacy of Italian colonialism,” she said. “Many Black Italians do not have citizenship. There is racism. … Renzo knew that when he became interested in Wilson. He understood that if he could put excellent Black actors on stage telling a story about everyday lives, that this could be an important pivot point for the Italian arts and the way Black Italians are seen in Italian society.” SpainChevron MadridChevron What's the crowd like?Friends enjoying leisurely catch-ups, bright-eyed couples on first dates, the occasional cheese geek or local chef—the crowd at La Carbonera is pleasantly subdued.

a central courtyard with arcades on the ground floor and a corridor or galleries on the main floor Towards the middle of the 1889th century the hospital fell into decline and was finally converted into a school and theatre in 1904 The theatre was renamed Diéguez in memory of Antonio Diéguez Cruz born in Colmenar de Oreja in 1936 and died in XNUMX during the first moments of the Civil War the roof was raised to make room for the second amphitheatre its layout was redesigned and decorated by a set designer following models by Ulpiano Checa who painted the coat of arms above the entrance architect Miguel Medina García drew up the project for the structural reform of the stage pit furniture and construction of a new emergency staircase the two roofs over the body of the stalls were restored The purpose of this intervention was to repair the poor state of conservation of the roofs over the stage box which were showing sliding tiles and support plates The fixings (spirals and nails) of prefabricated plates were poorly anchored in some cases The following interventions have been carried out: General Directorate of Cultural Heritage and Spanish Office Energy recovery turbines (ERTs) manufactured by the Swiss company Calder AG have been delivered to some of the largest seawater reverse osmosis desalination plants in the world The ERTs in these facilities recover approximately 90% of the brine reject energy which result in significant savings in energy costs Calder's smallest turbine model is rated at 20 kW while its largest model is rated at 1,800 kW the ERTs are always designed for a specific duty point or range the largest train in the world (20,000 m3 per day) is designed for 880 m3/h with a pressure range of 39 barg to 72.4 barg The speed range is from 2,700 rpm to 2,235 rpm pump manufacturer and Calder helped achieve the best possible efficiencies of the relevant components over the full performance range of less than 2.5 kWh/m3 of product water Energy recovery in SWRO was not widely used twenty years ago Francis turbines were the preferred option as energy recovery machines Calder AG first evaluated the concept of an energy recovery turbine based on the Pelton wheel technology 20 years ago The first prototype machines were based on standard hydro-electric impulse turbine hydraulics but with significant differences in material selection and mechanical build specification The Calder ERT accounts for approximately 90% of the energy recovery devices fitted to larger Its hydrodynamic characteristic allows for a wide range of variable parameters without a significant reduction in design efficiency This means that flow and pressure variations in the RO desalination process (from starting phase up to a long-term running operation) does not affect to any significant degree the running conditions and efficiency of the turbine The impulse turbine operates over the whole range of operating conditions Within a specified operating range cavitation does not occur ensuring a long lifetime of the rotor system the rotor is the only rotating element in the system Fewer components in the turbine lowers capital cost of the equipment Another very important factor is the reliability of the Calder energy recovery turbine Over 1,000 units are now in operation worldwide and reliability in excess of 99% has been proven In many areas where our products are in operation the local people rely on fresh water from the desalination plant A loss in production would immediately cause serious problems Further to that larger projects are often on a build-own-operate or build-own-transfer basis; therefore production affects income while downtimes might even lead to penalty claims The most exposed and stressed materials in the main turbine parts are made of Super Duplex stainless steel needles and wheels are cast and machined in materials of high-grade resistance to jet impact high-speed fluid friction erosion and cavitation

colors and a plethora of ideas that can easily adapt to new influences and with that are trends that we can ride moving forward Here are five design directions we can use and play around with this year Can you imagine the time when designers first faced the concept of “Photoshop” or any design program Surely they had some thoughts of going against it especially when they already had some design workflow it’s now our turn to embrace this new workflow of infusing AI into our systems.  it can be a powerful tool to ignite ideas or strengthen the ones we already have Take for example how legendary local designer AJ Dimarucot thinks of mixing AI and his creative work: I use it to help me come up with ideas and write things like proposals or rationales for my designs It’s not something I rely on blindly – it’s only as good as what I put into it.” “Photoshop’s Generative Fill is another tool I use a lot If I need to turn a horizontal stock photo into a vertical one Things like that used to take so much time so I can focus on more important parts of my projects.” “I use AI not just for designing but to make my whole design process easier.” it doesn’t have the capacity to be original So keep on learning and use this technology to its full potential but one of the things it has done to us is shorten our capacities for focusing This is where we can maximize bold minimalism still in 2025 like big and bold typography and boost it up with simple but contrasting color palettes Check out these samples from legendary design studio Team Manila: If there’s any recent pop culture reference that we can associate with metallics it would be Aespa’s “SYNK” concept They bring that “Whiplash” back from the 2000s aesthetics and it’s coming back again this year We too have metallic design here in the Philippines in plain sight – the historic jeepneys how about turning this niche aesthetic of metallic and sparkly jeepneys into reinterpretations of different concepts that can trickle into personal and work campaigns This simple dot born during the dawn of computing has laid the groundwork for the screen technology we have today and is now in the forefront of design this 2025 especially seen in the tastes of younger generations of designers and techpreneurs How about using these two typefaces that may embody this vibe: “Kawingan” by Jad Maza Or level it up with Inandan by “Uncurated Studio,” a typeface that looks like a mix of pixels and our very own beadwork and weaving patterns We’ve talked about the use of AI to boost your design but there will always be rebellion against new tech You’ll see more handmade craft design like organic lettering With AI making things look very polished and shiny more designs will push for grainy and organic with a mix of imperfections and happy accidents A quick search in the local scene — how about getting inspired by the cutout designs of Thea Torres the grainy retro illustrations of Kitty Jardenil going with trends

the Lecalde Joint Venture for the demolition of the Litoral de Carboneras Thermal Power Plant in Almería consisting of the Biscayan company Lezama Demoliciones a company specialising in industrial dismantling was selected on the basis of its technical-economic offer which included a firm commitment to maintaining local employment "Endesa's commitment in this specific dismantling as well as in the other processes of this type that we are undertaking in Spain Our aim is for the people in the area to participate and to be as well prepared as possible to do so" responsible for the dismantling undertaken by Endesa and who has valued "the role of Caldererías Indálicas a company that was founded along with the plant and that is now still with us in this new process" this dismantling contract means the maintenance of jobs training and professional adaptation to be able to access the new renewable energy projects that Endesa plans to undertake," said Luis Llamas As many as 82 people will work directly in the dismantling of the plant with priority being given to the local workforce the Town Council of Carboneras and the Regional Government of Andalusia will jointly organise training courses in the surroundings of the plant with a view to training the specialised personnel who can then be employed during demolition work These workers will also be joined by Endesa's own staff and those already contracted by the plant These are workers employed by the plant itself and the contractors who will now participate in its dismantling after receiving specific training courses The dismantling and demolition of all the plant's buildings installations and equipment will require an investment of 60 million euros and will be undertaken following principles of circular economy with the aim of recovering more than 90% of the materials and ultimately obtaining a zero waste certificate Sustainability will be another of the axes in this phase where the circular economy will not only be the central axis but criteria with regard to the Creation of Shared Value will also be followed and these will enable long-term relationship to be established with local stakeholders promoting an ethical culture that encourages the professional training of employees the development of social environments (local contracting) and the sustainable use of natural resources The demolition will be completed in 6 phases and large-scale heavy machinery will be used to undertake it Endesa is also continuing to work on the study of the projects that will be developed on the land on which the plant is located. Endesa has received 14 binding proposals submitted by 10 different promoters as part of an international tender for the Futur-e Plan which addresses topics relating to the circular economy To analyse the suitability of the offers submitted an assessment committee has been created that is currently assessing their suitability with regard to the requirements for the area and their capacity for generating employment and sustainability within the municipality The assessment committee consists of the University of Almería the Ministry of Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge As well as launching an international competition to find an industrial project to reactivate Carboneras from an economic and labour point of view Endesa is projecting about 1,200 megawatts of renewable energy in the province of Almeria to replace the 1,159 megawatts of power generated by the Litoral thermal power plant This will involve about 1,200 million euros of investment and the creation of more than 2,000 equivalent jobs during construction and about 400 jobs in the operation and maintenance phase The Futur-e plan is constantly open to the flexible inclusion of new initiatives and is currently also designing training courses to promote local employment in the dismantling activities for the plant These courses are being organised within the framework of a collaboration agreement between the Town Council of Carboneras Training and Self-Employed Workers of the Regional Government of Andalusia and Endesa They will be structured in three professional training programmes with the participation of 400 students who will be selected by the Andalusian Employment Service began commercial operations in 1985 and group 2 the installation generated more than 180,000 GWh the energy consumption of Andalusia for 4 and a half years and became a benchmark when environmental improvements were made that put it at the forefront of this technology worldwide with access for maritime traffic in the Mediterranean and North Africa areas after an investment of about 123 million euros for construction for the purpose of unloading coal for the Litoral Thermal Power Plant as a result of an agreement with the Port Authority of Almeria investment was made to provide the Port Terminal with a system that enables ships of between 10,000 and 15,000 tons of capacity destined for other Enel group plants in the Mediterranean which meant an increase in the fuel handling operations to be developed in the storage park These characteristics and its geographical location make it a unique facility for handling large draft ships coming from anywhere in the world a total of 79,480,191 tons of solid bulk have been handled The Litoral Thermal Power Plant has also hosted innovative projects including a microalgae plant the restoration of tips with native species and a battery storage project the electrification of the economy and Corporate Social Responsibility We also work in the latter area through the Endesa Foundation The Minister of Development, Territorial Articulation, and Housing, Rocío Díaz, has confirmed that the El Algarrobico land in Carboneras (Almería) is officially designated as “not developable” according to the municipality’s General Urban Planning Plan (PGOU) This decision comes following a judicial order annulling the municipal agreement from April 2023 which previously classified it as “developable” but now recognises it as a “protected space.” Speaking during the plenary session of the Andalusian Parliament Díaz highlighted that the Superior Court of Justice of Andalusia (TSJA) ruling aligns with their position She stressed that the land was never deemed developable Díaz also noted that this declaration was made at the request of her department which is committed to ensuring legal compliance and expediting the hotel’s demolition environmental groups like Greenpeace have urged the TSJA to suspend the enforced execution of the ruling fearing that it could reopen the possibility of development on the Algarrobico lands in urban planning They are concerned that this could undermine the review process and potentially lead to the cancellation of the demolition license Both the Andalusian Government and Greenpeace agree that the agreement initiated by the former Carboneras government was an attempt to circumvent compliance with the protective ruling they disagree on the consequences of its annulment by the TSJA In response to a question from Andalusian parliamentarian of the PP Díaz asserted that the Andalusian high court must rectify its order regarding the municipal agreement She criticised the agreement approved by the Carboneras socialist group as “absurd” and a “transgression,” warning of potential financial repercussions for the municipality Díaz criticised the delay in demolishing the hotel questioning the motives behind the obstruction despite the personal commitment of Minister of Ecological Transition Azata del Sol, the company behind the El Algarrobico hotel in Carboneras has appealed to the Andalusian High Court of Justice (TSJA) to cancel the construction license seeks more time to organise the local government The company’s request aims to enforce the court’s decision requiring the Council to reassess the municipal construction permit a necessary step before any demolition can occur arguing that recent legal developments may have rendered the land where the hotel stands once again available for development Such a change could jeopardise the validity of the construction permit Azata del Sol contends that the review of the hotel’s construction license should proceed independently of other legal matters concerning the land’s designation Despite the TSJA’s previous directive to Carboneras’ mayor to initiate the review process within a month a subsequent decision by the court revoked the protective status of the land where the hotel was constructed Greenpeace has urged a suspension of proceedings claiming that if the land is deemed available for development once more the existing construction permit might be considered valid under current urban planning regulations The organisation emphasises the necessity of changing the General Urban Development Plan (PGOU) and insists that until the land’s protected status is officially reinstated by the council the review of the hotel’s construction license cannot proceed under new leadership following a successful motion of no confidence against the previous administration has assured the TSJA that once the new council is fully organised it intends to bring the review of the license to a vote Mayor Salvador Hernandez has stressed the importance of this decision stating that its implementation will trigger the necessary review process mandated by the court Esp Eng IVAM Vallibona realitza una carbonera de tant en tant per recordar un dels oficis que ha donat més identitat al poble ja que va ser

environmentalists have announced that they intend to remain on the premises until the central government and the Junta de Andalucia sign an agreement to knock it down The organization is demanding that the matter be discussed at the cabinet meeting this Friday to decide who should take responsibility for demolishing the hotel. They are also demanding that the Junta de Andalucia stop all lawsuits which defend that the plot can be built upon and intend to legalise the hotel Around a dozen Greenpeace activists will remain at the hotel and have put up a banner reading ‘¿A qué esperan?’ (What are you waiting for?) to draw the attention of the different administrations They defend that they are not on private property as the plot was declared public domain as part of the Coastal Law in 2005. They are also collecting signatures with local environmentalist groups such as Salvemos Mojacar and Ecologistas en Accion have simply said that the building could be dangerous and that they fear for the environmentalists’ safety. More about the action taken by Greenpeace can be seen at their website They report that the police have visited the hotel and identified each of the people
