35Th America's 35th America’s Cup One vision, one value. On par, no barriers. Since 2006, one message: we can, you can! One vision, one value. www.argochallenge.org On par, no barriers. © ideaargo2013 wecanucan 2 Argo Challenge is a project associated to the next America’s Cup to bring an international team of disabled sailors to the highest levels of competition. Started on initiative of Antonio Spinelli, it made its first appearance during Winter Paralympics Games of Torino 2006. This project is about challenging the common concept of “normality”, bringing it beyond the usual understanding of everyday life: it is about inclusion. The goal is to show the world that it is possible to reach great objectives even if one is disabled, and that in sport, like in life, barriers can be overcome if one is determined, passionate, professional and work in a great team. ONE strong and universal message, shared by common people, people that can go beyond the common standards. On par, no barriers wecanucan If an idea doesn’t seem absurd in the beginning, there is no hope for it. (Albert Einstein) One vision, one value.

Jason hauled the boat into the water, adorned it with all that could amaze, and chose only the most valiant from among the candidates. The America’s Cup with an international team Diodorus Siculus Historical Library, IV 41 of sailors and disabled athletes This is the first and most important project by Argo. Innovative, unique, and with a great impact on media around the world. Sport as a means of integration, physical and psychological rehabilitation for physical disabled people has proven to be highly successful. Sailing, contrary to most other sports, offers the chance to compete at the highest possible levels on par with all sailors regardless of disabilities. Lars Grael, Brazilian, twice Olympic medalist, living legend for Olympic Class Sailing, is at present one of the best sailors in the world even though he lost a leg during a training regatta. Argo’s success is identified by the amount of people that we can educate about living with disabilities and how sailing and athletics play a key role in the development of those living with a disability. Argo’s participation within the 35° America’s Cup as competitor or partner is a win as for whom Argo Challenge represents as well as a win for the America's Cup community. 8 Main milestones from 2006 onwards: • 14th March ‘06: official presentation and achieved the patronage of local Institutions; • 11th June: Lars Grael wins for Argo the Star Class Benetti International Trophy, Viareggio (Italy); • 15th June: entrance in our base in Gaeta at “Base Nautica Flavio Gioia”; • 20th September: purchase and rigging of former America’s Cup 12 Meter Class Yacht French Kiss”; • 8th October: “French Kiss” wins the 12 Meter Class Challenge, first place in all regattas, during Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez with a mixed crew of sailors and physically disabled sailors; • May 2007: presentation of the book “Argo. A modern story, beyond sailing” realized by the famous artist Roger Pfund; • June: public show of French Kiss in the city center of Torino; • August: the Minister of Youth and Sport Policies grants its support; • September 2008: Argo Challenge, on board Atalanta II (owned by Carlo Puri Negri), gains first place ex-aequo in the Mini-Maxi ORC/IMS at the World Maxi Championship Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup; • October 2008: Argo Challenge has been admitted as Challenger to the XXXIII America’s Cup in representation of Club Nautico Gaeta; • World-wide media coverage: CNN, Rai, La7, RTL, TF1, TF3, Rete Globo, ESPN, Sport TV Brasil, Sky Sailing Channel, (see details). 9 Argo Challenge Sailing Team Argo Challenge Sailing Team, in the spirit of the social message that wants to make known, will take part to the international sailing events of great importance and high technical level. Comparing, at the equal level, with the best team sailors and with the strongest world sailors aiming to reach the result that every great athlete hugs to obtain: victory. On October 2006, aboard “French Kiss”, Argo Challenge Sailing Team won every single race thus claiming first plance at the “Les Voiles de Saint Tropez”.

Today he is the man who symbolizes the project and a constant point of reference for the development of the sailing progress and communication. Lars is a track star and a sailing legend. He is among the highest achievers in the sport.

  • Will Broadband TV Shape the Future of Broadcasting?
    BROADBAND TV WillBroadband TV shape the future of broadcasting? Franc Kozamernik EBU Lieven Vermaele VRT Broadband Television (BTV) 1 is a new emerging platform for distributing digital television channels to home consumers using a TV screen. This article focuses on BTV services which use the conventional telephone infra- structure (i.e. twisted-pair copper lines). These BTV services are often called ADSL TV or DSL TV. Other delivery mechanisms such as coaxial cable, power line communications (PLC), fibre (FTTH) and wireless (UMTS, Wi-Fi and WiMAX) are not covered here. If commercially successful, Broadband TV may complement traditional DTV services – which use satellite, cable and terrestrial delivery – and may even evolve into a fourth mass-market platform for digital television services. Many telcom and cable operators are in the process of trialling BTV infrastructure and expecting that it could evolve into the next emerging market of 2005 and beyond. Some initial experiences show that the technology is quite mature, the business models potentially sound and the prospective subscribers enthusiastic. Some market analysts even anticipate explosive growth of the broadband television market. This article attempts to provide some background to BTV developments in Europe and outlines the principal areas of interest such as: (i) the current status of BTV trials, (ii) issues relating to the network and media technologies used, (iii) some content-related issues and, last but not least, (iv) some regulatory matters. Background BTV makes use of a television set rather than a PC. There are multiple commercial reasons for this. First of all, TV sets are much more popular domestic appliances than PCs.

  • I Limiti Della Pubblicità Televisiva Lucia Canzi E Michele Cavuoti
    Consumatori in cifre I limiti della pubblicità televisiva Lucia Canzi e Michele Cavuoti Premessa In Italia la regolamentazione della pubblicità in televisione è costituita da una serie di leggi, decreti, regolamenti e codici di comportamento che stabiliscono i limiti quantitativi dei messaggi pubblicitari rispetto all’intera programmazione. Il principale riferimento normativo è la Legge 223/90, in alcune parti mo- dificata e integrata dalla più recente Legge Gasparri (Legge 112/2004) e poi confluita nel Testo Unico per la Radiotelevisione (D.Lgs. 177/2005). A questo si aggiungono alcune leggi relative a specifici argomenti, il Codice di Autoregola- mentazione tv e Minori e il Codice di Autodisciplina Pubblicitaria. Il problema dell’ingombro pubblicitario in televisione è comunque un argo- mento sempre oggetto di discussioni e interpretazioni più o meno restrittive e che coinvolge molti soggetti e interessi contrapposti. Dal punto di vista del mercato, l’affollamento pubblicitario televisivo costi- tuisce un problema se mette in discussione la distribuzione delle risorse pubbli- citarie con le altre forme di comunicazione e principalmente con la stampa. Dal punto di vista del consumatore, il punto critico sta nella fruibilità del mezzo televisivo, vale a dire nella possibilità di seguire in modo continuativo il programma prescelto. È chiaro che a volte questa fruibilità viene a mancare: è il caso di partite di calcio o film interrotti, o di programmi all’interno dei quali l’ingombro pubblicitario è tale da renderne sgradevole la visione. È principalmente per un problema di fruibilità della televisione da parte del consumatore che Altroconsumo ha deciso di svolgere uno specifico studio sul- l’argomento.
