  • City of Punta Gorda
    Burnt Store Isles Perimeter Channel Dredge Project The City of Punta Gorda contractor, Brance Diversified, has begun the maintenance dredging of the perimeter channel in the Burnt Store Isles subdivision (work will occur seven days a week as weather and equipment operation permit). The dredge is adjacent to Palermo Drive and will progress north along the perimeter channel to the completion point at Terin Court. Boaters should expect navigational delays and need to exercise caution in the vicinity of the work and may contact the company workers through channel 78 on the VHF radio. The dredge will be located in the perimeter channel and will have up to 4,000 feet of 12 inch discharge pipe leading to the spoil locations. The spoil will be discharged directly into the canal system as required by the State/Federal permits. The first spoil location will be the southernmost basin between Monaco Drive and Palermo Drive which will be blocked by turbidity screens. Homeowners in this basin will need to contact Joost Derijk (952-999-3122), Chris Hays (727-580-2481), or Seth Mayhall (337-793- 6740) to schedule their exit and reentry from the work area. The affected addresses are 800-842 Monaco Drive, 363-375 Portofino Drive, and 5018-5052 Palermo Drive. Short Range Schedule of dredge areas: June 17 through June 25, 2017; 5007-5025 Palermo Drive, 300-355 Trieste Drive, and 300-307 Portofino Drive. June 26 through July 3, 2017; 5016-5068 San Massimo Drive. July 4 through July 26, 2017; 513-739 Macedonia Drive. For additional information on this project, please contact City Project Manager, Gary Disher, Punta Gorda Public Works Department at (941) 575-5021 between the business hours of 7:00 a.m.

  • Slovenia – 5 Nights the Karst - Culture and Landscape
    Telephone: +44 (0) 1722 322 652 Email: [email protected] Slovenia – 5 nights The Karst - culture and landscape https://www.onfootholidays.co.uk/routes/slovenia/slovenia-5-nights/ Route Summary At a glance 5 nights (4 days walking) - missing Vipava. Add extra nights in Ljubljana or Trieste, and in Tomaj for extra walking, Lipizzaner horses and cave visit. How much walking? Full days: 11-16km per day, 3¾ - 5hrs walking Using shortening options: 11-16km per day, 3½-5 hrs (using lifts) (two days shortened) Max. Grade: page 1/9 The “Kras”, or Karst, in the west of this tiny country, is an area of woodlands, meadows and unspoilt villages with an ever-present backdrop of mountains. Its extraordinary geological phenomena include vast cave systems and rivers that vanish into cliffs and, en route to your first day’s walk, a disappearing lake. The rock is mother also to some fine vineyards producing the unique Teran wine, a ferocious red to be drunk as accompaniment to the local prosciutto (“Prsut”). After a first night in the pretty Slovenian capital Ljubljana, you stay in farms that produce their own wine, hams and honey, and grow all manner of fruit. You end your holiday in the lively Italian seaport of Trieste and, with extra nights, can visit the original Lipizzaner stud (small supplement) or part of the extraordinary Skocjan cave system, both on foot or by mountain bike (this way you can potentially see both!). Route Highlights ● Green Europe at its most beguiling ● Stay on working farms and eat delicious produce ● Prsut (prosciutto) and Teran wine ● Supper at Cejkotova Domacija (subject to availability – see below) ● The hilltop settlements of Stanjel and Tabor ● Predjama Castle ● The disappearing lake and rivers ● Optional visits to the Skocjan Caves or the Lipizzaner horses ● Trieste and Ljubljana and the Hapsburg legacy We Recommend Extra nights in Tomaj for walk to the Skocan caves or Lippizaner stud, or hire mountain bikes to see either or both, or just to have a relaxing day exploring other parts of the region (include lunch at pretty Pliskovica).

  • The Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia Regions
    DEPAUW SUMMER 2015 Explore Italy REGIONS AND CITIES OF NORTHEASTERN ITALY The Authentic Italy Northeastern Italy is composed of two regions, Veneto and Friuli Venezia-Giulia. At the geographical heart of Europe, the area has played host to many different peoples and cultures, including the Celts, Romans, Huns, Byzantines, Lombards, Franks, Venetians, French, and Hapsburgs, before becoming regions of Italy. The result is an area rich in diverse architecture and art, and one with world-class cuisine and wine. The two regions are home to no less than eight UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The New York Times recently called Friuli “Italy’s Secret Garden,” and the region has only lately been discovered by non- The Veneto and Friuli Venezia Europeans. Giulia Regions “Friuli is the great undiscovered region of Italy: It has beautiful beaches on the Adriatic, stunning undiscovered alps in Carnia, idyllic scenery in the winegrowing district known as Collio, vibrant and handsome cities such as Udine and mysterious Trieste, historical centers such as Aquileia and Cividale del Friuli, wonderful food and wine, great coffee, good cultural facilities, and above all some of the warmest, most welcoming people you will ever meet.” Slovenia & Croatia A town of ancient origins on the coast of the Istrian peninsula, 25 km from Italy, Piran was voluntarily absorbed into the Venetian empire in 1283 when Croatian pirates were continually threatening the Dalmatian coast. Many Venetian artists visited and worked in Piran, including the famed Piranese violinist Giuseppe Tartini (born in Piran) and the Venetian master painter Tintoretto, one of whose paintings can be seen in the local museum.

The city of Rome was founded in 753 B.C.E. and over hundreds of years it developed into an empire stretching across Europe and North Africa, lasting until the fourth century C.E. The Roman Republic (509 B.C.E.–31 B.C.E.) and Empire (27 B.C.E.–476 C.E.) con- tributed much to the ancient world. Their roads, temples, amphitheaters, aqueducts, and basilicas, among other structures, were used as the model for much of the architec- ture throughout the rest of the Western world. History According to legend, the city of Rome was founded by Romulus in 753 B.C.E.At this time it was little more than a few sheep herders who came together along the Tiber River. By 509 B.C.E. the republic was created, which ruled the growing city and territory with a senate rather than a king. The republic form of government later served as a model for the French and American Revolutions, which fought for a government free of monarchal rule. Due to the extensive growth of Rome’s territory, which extended all the way to the British Isles, and the ambitions of one man, Julius Caesar, the republic turned into an empire around 31 B.C.E.

  • TRIESTE : Oxford
    INSTITUTE OP CURRENT WORLD APFAIRS D-26 St. Antony' s Collee, TRIESTE : Oxford. Too much to Die, Too 6th Hay, 1960. Little o Live. Hr. Richard H. Nolte, Institute of Current World Affairs, 366 adlson Avenue, New York. 17, N.Y. Dear r. Nolte: Trieste is the liveliest dying city imaginable. I came to it from a fortnight pleasantly rediscovering Florence, Siena, Ravenna and Venlce; and the contrast was striking. There is a sense of vitality and busyness and even prosperity about the crowds on the Corso Italia that I had not felt elsewhere, even in Florence, where the seasonal tourist rush was already underway. By ten o' clock at night oher provincial Italian cities have quietly rolled up their sidewalks and gone to sleep -un-Italian of them -but not Trieste. The restaurants, the cafes and the streets are full, the Teatro Verdi has a better and more frequent program than could be found in Florence or Venice, and although it was a cool April and the Bora was blowing- the open-air Jukebox dance pavilions along the waterfront are doing a rush business even on weeknights. There are as many new cars and motorscooters on the Trieste streets as in any other northern Itallsn city. The Chamber of Commerce, which fills an entire building with efficient secretaries and bustling bureaus, pours out a flood of attractive brochures extolling the incomparable virtues of the port and industrial district of Trieste. The only jarring note in this idyll of superficial prosperity is the curiously empty harbour: three ships at anchor in What was, in 1913, the eighth ranking port in the world.
