  • Tonya Pinkins
    tonya pinkins October 2008 most actors spend a lifetime dreaming of career success. According to Tonya Pinkins, success was her undoing. In 1992 Pinkins’s career was taking off . She was appearing on the soap opera, As the World Turns , and she had just won rave reviews and a Tony Award for Jelly’s Last Jam . That success, says Pinkins, was too much for the ego of her then-husband. “When you’re coming from a house full of women,” she says, “you really don’t know anything about men and have no basis for picking and choosing. I just picked a string of really bad ones.” This one not only sued for divorce; he fought for and won sole custody of Pinkins’s two children. She had to leave the show to focus on the court proceedings, spent years in battle, going bank- rupt in the process, and found that for the rest of her career to date, despite artistic success, she’d be dealing with the fallout. Tonya Pinkins was born in Chicago into a home inhabited by her mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and aunts, none of whom were especially interested in the arts. A junior high school teacher saw Pinkins’s talent, however, and lobbied the St. Nicholas Theater Com- pany to allow her to study in their professional program. By nineteen she was in New York, having been cast in the legendary fl op, Merrily We Roll Along . Her next Broadway musical was Jelly’s Last Jam , followed by the disappointments, Chronicles of a Death Foretold, Play On! , and The Wild Party .

  • P.H.D. Thesis XXVIII Cicle
    UNIVERSITÀ DEGLI STUDI DI PARMA DIPARTIMENTO DI FARMACIA Dottorato di Ricerca in Farmacologia e Tossicologia Sperimentali XXVIII Ciclo Nutraceutical Approach to the Modulation of Cholesterol Metabolism: in Vitro and in Vivo Studies Coordinatore del Dottorato: Chiar.ma Prof. Elisabetta Barocelli Tutor: Chiar.mo Prof. Franco Bernini Dottorando: Antonio Piemontese Triennio Accademico 2013-2015 Quando corro tutti i pensieri volano via. Superare gli altri è avere la forza, superare se stessi è essere forti Confucio Abstract In recent years, new ways to treat cardiovascular diseases is spreading, aimed to support the medical therapy or replace it. Indeed abandonment of therapies is the major public health problem of western world. Several causes induce a reduced adherence to the therapy, as the complexity of treatments and the side effects of administered drugs, especially for chronic diseases. Consequently, a reduction of side effects leads to an improvement of living condition of patients. In order to avoid the abandonments of therapies, it may be used a nutraceutical approach supporting pharmacological drugs. Nutraceutical therapies include molecular complexes and microorganisms, which come from plants, milk, and functional foods. The general aim of this study is to investigate the cholesterol lowering activity of a nutraceutical compound and a specific bacterial strain in animal models with high plasma cholesterol levels. In addition, the effects of nutraceutical treatment on physiological mechanisms which counteract the creation of atherosclerotic plaque such as the cholesterol efflux from foam cells of atheroma, or the cholesterol uptake from intestine, has been analysed. The present thesis is divided in two parts. In the first part, we investigated the capability of bifidobacteria to reduce cholesterol levels in growth media, demonstrating a high assimilation of this molecule by particular bifidobacterial strains, as Bifidobacterium bifidum PRL2010.

  • Architecture As Experience
    Architectural Research in Finland, vol.2, no.1 (2018) 9 Architecture as Experience The fusion of the world and the self Juhani Pallasmaa Aalto University (professor emeritus) [email protected] Abstract The complex phenomenon of architecture consists of too many irreconcilable and conflicting categories of thought, intention, emotion, interaction and action to be condensed into the framework of a single theory of architecture. Besides, art and architecture are constituted in their mental encounter and experience instead of the material works themselves. Works of architecture and art are encountered and lived rather than understood intellectually. Architecture is commonly understood, taught, practiced and evaluated primarily as a visual art form. However, we encounter buildings and environments through our entire sense of being. Perceptions interact with memory and imagination to constitute an experience with meaning and temporal duration. Art and architecture are essentially relational phenomena as they express our being in the world instead of themselves or their authors. The interest in architecture as experience also directs our attention to such diffuse and neglected experiences as atmospheres, ambiences, feelings, moods and attunements. Keywords: experience, existential sense, relational phenomena. Introduction Modern architectural theory, education and practice have regarded architecture as visually aestheticised spaces and material structures, and primarily studied their historical, functional, technical and formal characteristics. The analyses have focused on architecture as physical objects and spaces and their geometric and compositional qualities, as well as the representation of these properties in drawings. As architecture does not possess a comprehensive theory of its own, the point of view and method of research have usually been borrowed from other disciplines in accordance with changing interests and fashions; often the applicability of the chosen theoretical frameworks have been highly questionable in the specific reality of architecture.

  • Ferruccio Lamborghini
    Editorial In 1981, I started up my new Tonino Lamborghini Style and Accessories company. At the time I was assisting my father in the family group, but I felt the need to do something exclusively of my own, different from the world of engines. I have always been interested in design and accessories. I really liked brands like Gucci and Hermès and I was inspired by them to create an activity with signature branded products. Just as Gucci was inspired by the equestrian world with iconic elements such as a bracket or a bite, I took inspiration from the bearing, the piston, the springs, the suspensions. I’ve always loved products linked to mechanics and engineering. Thus, it was obvious for me that the first accessory that I realized was a watch. And this is the reason why in each product I create a special detail legend of a brand recognized throughout the globe as a beacon of luxury, exclusivity and Italian flair: these are the values of my brand. I hope my clientele understands my personal vision behind all my branded products: to spread the passion and spirit of Italy with unique and distinctive products, inspired by Italian industrial design and the Lamborghini family mechanical heritage.

  • Antonius Andreae Scotism's Best Supporting Auctor
    ANTONIUS ANDREAL SCOTISM'S BEST SUPPORTING AUCTOR Marek GF.NSLLR I. THE MAKING OF A DOCTOR DULCIFLUUS ANTONIUS ANDREAE AND HIS POSITION IN FORMATION OF SCOTISM The turning of the 13th and 14th century saw the emergence of a bright new star on the firmament of philosophy - the man who reinvented scho- lasticism after the Condemnation of 1277: John Duns Scotus. The light of his thought soon lit up inspiration in many adepts of the Liberal Arts and the gravity of his doctrine had caught, for some time at least, a number of young thinkers, who later became most influential philosophers of 14th century, like Francis de Mayronis, William of Ockham and Peter Auriol, to name a few. For most of them, however, the contact with the doctrine of the Subtle Doctor was only an inspiring episode early in their careers and it would be difficult to call them advocates of scotism, much less ,,true,, scotists. And still, despite the fact that so many of Scotus' best pu- pils later turned their backs on his teaching, despite Scotus' early death that had left his work unfinished, the doctrine of John Duns not only sur- vived but started flourishing and gradually became one of the most vital and powerful philosophical schools of later middle ages, whose influence was still felt at the universities even in the 18th century. How was it possi- ble that the ideas so subtle and so sketchy won minds and hearts of so many lovers of wisdom? Propagation of Scotus' views required devout followers, skilful inter- preters and commentators and, last but not least, good thinkers who, ac- cepting the opinions of John Duns for their own, would develop them in- to a comprehensive doctrine covering the whole spectrum of philosophical inquiry of the time, in a word: transform them into scotism.
