The Annex contains the full text of the retrospective Statements of Outstanding Universal Value in the original language submitted to the Secretariat. Draft Decision: 39 COM 8E, see Point II. This document cancels and replaces document WHC-15/39.COM/8E. I. BACKGROUND 1. The Statement of Outstanding Universal Value was introduced in the Operational Guidelines in 2005 as an essential requirement for the inscription of a property on the World Heritage List. All properties inscribed since 2007 present such a Statement. 2. In 2007, the World Heritage Committee, in its Decision 31 COM 11D.1, requested that Statements of Outstanding Universal Value be drafted and approved retrospectively for all World Heritage properties inscribed between 1978 and 2006, prior to the launch of the second cycle of Periodic Reporting in each region. 3. As a consequence, in the framework of the Periodic Reporting exercise, States Parties draft retrospective Statements of Outstanding Universal Value for World Heritage properties located within their territories which are afterwards reviewed by the relevant Advisory Bodies. 4. The 81 draft retrospective Statements of Outstanding Universal Value for which the review process has been finalized since the 38th session of the World Heritage Committee (Doha, 2014) are presented for adoption to the World Heritage Committee in this document. 5. The draft retrospective Statements contained in the draft Decision and in the Annex are presented by region and by State Party in alphabetical order. They are distributed as follows: Africa (3), Arab States (1), Asia and the Pacific (7), Europe and North America (55) and Latin America and the Caribbean (15). The Annex includes a table of contents presenting all sites concerned. 6. Further to Decision 38 COM 8E, the World Heritage Centre continues the harmonisation of all sub-headings in the Statements to “Brief synthesis”, “Criteria”, “Integrity”, “Authenticity” and “Protection and management requirements”. The World Heritage Centre also updates the Statements, further to subsequent decisions taken by the World Heritage Committee concerning changes of names of the World Heritage properties as well as Minor Boundary Modifications. 7. The 81 draft retrospective Statements are presented in the original language of submission. Once adopted, they will be translated into the other official language and uploaded progressively on the World Heritage Centre web site subject to availability of funds. II. DRAFT DECISION Draft Decision: 39 COM 8E The World Heritage Committee, 1. Having examined Document WHC-15/39.COM/8E.Rev, 2.

    Moscow Guide Neurolinguistics Laboratory 2016 How to get to Moscow from the airport There are two ways of getting from the airport to the city: taxi and train. Aeroexpress train We advise you to choose an aeroexpress train that goes to the metro station near to the center. This transport is faster and more reliable, especially during rush hours. Unfortunately, it is closed for several hours at night. You can buy tickets online at the website and at the airport at ticket machines or ticket office. You can also pay directly at the tourniquet with a Paypass or PayWave card (in this case you do not need to buy the tickets). For timetables, tickets and more information please see https://aeroexpress.ru/en.html Taxi We strongly advise you not to use the taxis that are offered at the airport, they are usually overpriced. The most convenient taxi services with mobile applications are Uber https://www.uber.com/ , Yandex Taxi https://taxi.yandex.ru/ , and Gett http://gett.com/ . If you are a first time Gett user, you can use a promocode GTPYNWK to get a 400rub bonus for your ride. All the services have special fixed tariffs for trips to and from airports. You can also prebook a taxi for a fixed airport-to-Moscow tariff. The prices range from 1500 to 2000r. The companies with websites in English are: https://mostaxi.ru/en/ , http://www.msk-taxi.ru/eng Getting around Except taxis (more information is given in the previous section) there are different types of public transport: underground transport called metro and surface transport (trams, buses, trolleybuses and marshrutkas).

  • Photo Ragusa
    foto Municipalities (link 3) Modica Modica [ˈmɔːdika] (Sicilian: Muòrica, Greek: Μότουκα, Motouka, Latin: Mutyca or Motyca) is a city and comune of 54.456 inhabitants in the Province of Ragusa, Sicily, southern Italy. The city is situated in the Hyblaean Mountains. Modica has neolithic origins and it represents the historical capital of the area which today almost corresponds to the Province of Ragusa. Until the 19th century it was the capital of a County that exercised such a wide political, economical and cultural influence to be counted among the most powerful feuds of the Mezzogiorno. Rebuilt following the devastating earthquake of 1693, its architecture has been recognised as providing outstanding testimony to the exuberant genius and final flowering of Baroque art in Europe and, along with other towns in the Val di Noto, is part of UNESCO Heritage Sites in Italy. Saint George’s Church in Modica Historical chocolate’s art in Modica The Cioccolato di Modica ("Chocolate of Modica", also known as cioccolata modicana) is an Italian P.G.I. specialty chocolate,[1] typical of the municipality of Modica in Sicily, characterized by an ancient and original recipe using manual grinding (rather than conching) which gives the chocolate a peculiar grainy texture and aromatic flavor.[2][3][4] The specialty, inspired by the Aztec original recipe for Xocolatl, was introduced in the County of Modica by the Spaniards, during their domination in southern Italy.[5][6] Since 2009 a festival named "Chocobarocco" is held every year in the city. Late Baroque Towns of the Val di Noto (South-Eastern Sicily) The eight towns in south-eastern Sicily: Caltagirone, Militello Val di Catania, Catania, Modica, Noto, Palazzolo, Ragusa and Scicli, were all rebuilt after 1693 on or beside towns existing at the time of the earthquake which took place in that year.

In this paper, we propose a DL framework for Point Cloud segmentation, which employs an improved DGCNN (Dynamic Graph Convolutional Neural Network) by adding meaningful features such as normal and colour. The approach has been applied to a newly collected DCH Dataset which is publicy available: ArCH (Architectural Cultural Heritage) Dataset.

Introduction This statement is made on behalf of the Association of Art Museum Directors (the “AAMD”) regarding the proposed renewal of the Agreement Between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the Republic of Italy, last amended and extended on January 11, 2011 (the “MOU”). II. General Background American art museums generally have experienced a history of cooperation both with Italian museums and the Italian Cultural Ministry built on mutual assistance and shared interests in their respective arts and cultural heritage. American art museums have been generous in sharing works from their collections with their Italian counterparts and have also worked extensively across a wide range of activities to assist Italians in protecting their cultural heritage. In fact, for many of the large and mid-sized collecting museums, the number of works of art traveling to Italian museums exceeds the reverse. An integral part of the cultural exchanges between American museums and Italian museums are loans of works of art. In these exchanges, usually the American
