  • International Film Festival April 24 – May 4, 2008 the Washington, Dc International Film Festival
    THE 22ND ANNUAL WASHINGTON, DC INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL APRIL 24 – MAY 4, 2008 THE WASHINGTON, DC INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL A world of films…a window into our world. Whether experienced in movie theaters, on DVDs or television in our homes, on our iPods or computers, films are the major communications media of our time. Hollywood films dominate commercial cinema. However, scores of talented filmmakers around the globe produce thou- sands of quality films that speak with a different voice, provide a different point of view, and tell different stories. Presenting these films in the nation’s capital is the purpose of Filmfest DC. Photo: Chad Evans Wyatt Film festivals are a journey of Tony Gittens, Festival Director and Shirin Ghareeb, Assistant Director discovery, a visual and thought provoking adventure into how people see and interpret our world. Every Filmfest DC is different and every film is unique from every other film in the festival. Together, they comprise an amazing representation of human imagination, commitment and talent. The festival has two special focuses this year — Politics & Film and New Latin Ameri- can Cinema. Obviously, politics are especially prominent during this election season and we wanted to explore the role affairs of state play in people’s every day lives. Latin American filmmakers are always a treasure trove of inventive storytelling. The di- verse selection of new work we have gathered from the Spanish-speaking world (in- cluding Spain) are moving, humorous, and insightful. None of this would be possible without the many dedicated people who have shared their time and talents with Filmfest DC.

  • Song, State, Sawa Music and Political Radio Between the US and Syria
    Song, State, Sawa Music and Political Radio between the US and Syria Beau Bothwell Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Beau Bothwell All rights reserved ABSTRACT Song, State, Sawa: Music and Political Radio between the US and Syria Beau Bothwell This dissertation is a study of popular music and state-controlled radio broadcasting in the Arabic-speaking world, focusing on Syria and the Syrian radioscape, and a set of American stations named Radio Sawa. I examine American and Syrian politically directed broadcasts as multi-faceted objects around which broadcasters and listeners often differ not only in goals, operating assumptions, and political beliefs, but also in how they fundamentally conceptualize the practice of listening to the radio. Beginning with the history of international broadcasting in the Middle East, I analyze the institutional theories under which music is employed as a tool of American and Syrian policy, the imagined youths to whom the musical messages are addressed, and the actual sonic content tasked with political persuasion. At the reception side of the broadcaster-listener interaction, this dissertation addresses the auditory practices, histories of radio, and theories of music through which listeners in the sonic environment of Damascus, Syria create locally relevant meaning out of music and radio. Drawing on theories of listening and communication developed in historical musicology and ethnomusicology, science and technology studies, and recent transnational ethnographic and media studies, as well as on theories of listening developed in the Arabic public discourse about popular music, my dissertation outlines the intersection of the hypothetical listeners defined by the US and Syrian governments in their efforts to use music for political ends, and the actual people who turn on the radio to hear the music.

  • Climeon Completes Sea Trials with Virgin Voyages and Fincantieri
    CLIMEON COMPLETES SEA TRIALS WITH VIRGIN VOYAGES AND FINCANTIERI Climeon has successfully passed the Sea Trials for Virgin Voyages first ship, the Scarlet Lady. At the end of 2017, Climeon passed the Factory Acceptance Test for the first order from Virgin Voyages and Fincantieri. Since then, the modules have been installed onboard Virgin Voyages first ship, the Scarlet Lady. Now another big milestone has been reached as the ship, including the Heat Power modules, has successfully completed the Sea Trials, where the ship is tested at sea for the first time. - This is a big milestone for Climeon, we have been working towards this goal for many years. I am very proud of all of our employees who have contributed to the installation onboard the Scarlet Lady, says Thomas Öström, CEO of Climeon. Climeon has been onboard the Scarlet Lady for the first round of sea trials, sailing from Genoa to Marseille, and then back from Marseille to Genoa. The Heat Power modules performed as expected and were approved in the Sea Trials. The first cruise for the Scarlet Lady is scheduled for April 2020. - We’re thrilled to have completed such a significant milestone with our Sea Trials and have our amazing crew to thank for their passion and tenacity in this achievement. We’re one step closer to getting our Sailors on the Scarlet Lady and can confirm that the Scarlet Lady is running smooth and we’re happy with Climeon’s performance, said Tom McAlpin, Virgin Voyages CEO. In addition to the Scarlet Lady, Climeon has delivered Heat Power modules to Virgin Voyages next two ships, leading with the Valiant Lady which is currently being built.

  • “Resilient Lady”, La Terza Nave Extralusso Del Gruppo Virgin Di Fabio Canessa 02 Luglio 2021 – 10:29
    1 Fincantieri: varata a Genova “Resilient Lady”, la terza nave extralusso del gruppo Virgin di Fabio Canessa 02 Luglio 2021 – 10:29 Genova. È stata varata questa mattina nello stabilimentoFincantieri di Sestri Ponente Resilient Lady, la terza delle navi da crociera extralusso ordinate dal gruppo Virgin Voyages di Richard Branson al cantiere navale genovese. La cerimonia di varo tecnico, che consiste nell’allagamento del bacino in cui la nave viene costruita, è avvenuta in forma ristretta senza pubblico a causa delle norme anti-Covid che impediscono l’accesso al cantiere da parte di persone non addette ai lavori. LaResilient Lady, una volta portata in galleggiamento, dovrà restare in cantiere all’incirca un altro anno per terminare tutte le finiture e gli allestimenti interni. Come le due gemelle Scarlet Lady e Valiant Lady, la nave ha una stazza lorda di circa 110mila tonnellate, è lunga 278 metri e larga 38. È dotata di oltre 1.400 cabine in grado di ospitare a bordo più di 2.770 passeggeri, assistiti da un equipaggio di 1.160 persone. La qualità della vita a bordo è garantita dalla certificazione “comfort class”, che attesta livelli minimi di rumore e vibrazione percepiti, e da un utilizzo estensivo della domotica, grazie alla quale gli ospiti sono in grado di gestire un’ampia serie di funzioni della cabina (condizionamento, illuminazione, apertura e chiusura delle tende, musica e televisione) attraverso un’app da installare sul proprio smartphone. Genova24.it - 1 / 2 - 26.09.2021 2 Proprio ieri Valiant Lady, la cui costruzione è appena terminata a Sestri Ponente, è stata ufficialmente consegnata all’armatore e il 4 luglio prenderà il largo verso il porto di Civitavecchia, in attesa della prima crociera che dovrebbe avvenire nel novembre 2022.
