Raise a Toast to the Good Life on Barcelona's Maresme Coast The Daily Telegraph Saturday 19 October 2019 *** 13 INTERNATIONAL Raise a toast to the good life Locator on Barcelona’s Maresme coast requested Zoe Dare Hall ventures further along from Catalonia’s capital and finds peace and charm among the vineyards rom the green hilltops of the family-run Alta Alella vineyard, the nearest winery to Bar- celona, the views stretch for miles across the rolling countryside F and coastline. In the distance, you can make out the distinc- tive sail shape of Barcelona’s beach- front W hotel and the city’s towers. Yet here, among the terraced hills of the Maresme coast, it feels like a different world altogether: peaceful, genteel and rejuvenating. British palates in particular have latched on to Alta Alella’s wines, known for their salty minerality that comes from being so close to the sea. “The UK is one of our biggest markets for wine tourism and exports,” says Valérie Veil- leux, the vineyard’s exuberant commu- nications manager, fresh from the local area’s biggest fiesta, the Festa de la Ver- ema (wine harvest festival), which takes place every September. A walk around Alella will show just how important wine is to this well- heeled town, with its historic mansions set on sprawling estates. Residents also talk of the many wine tastings and pic- nics in vineyards that pepper the year. But this is a place you come to for well- ness too, and some of those historic wine estates are now being turned into spa and cosmetic surgery retreats by Russian and Indian buyers. The Catalans are an active bunch in general, says Tom Maidment of Lucas Fox estate agency. “Sailing, tennis, golf, hiking in the Serralada de Marina natu- ral park, road cycling and mountain biking… at weekends, everyone’s in Lycra. And within an hour and 40 min- utes, you can be on the ski slopes of Masella or La Molina,” he says. Indeed, jump on a bike in Barcelona, follow the coastal path for 45 minutes or so and you reach the Maresme’s first town, Montgat, home to one of the ar- ea’s in-demand international schools, Hamelin Laie. The coast then stretches 37 miles north to where it meets Blanes on the Costa Brava.

This document was designed as a tool for assessing and guiding water management in Spain. Although Spain’s future water policy is outlined in the conclusions, the points mentioned refer only to quantitative aspects of water resources without considering the issue of quality. Nonetheless, the issue of river, reservoir, lake and groundwater pollution is taken into account in the assessment section. Amongst the problems related to water quality, the White Paper notes, among others, problems related with Directives 91/271/EEC and 91/676/EEC. A brief summary of the main issues addressed is provided below. Surface water and diffuse pollution. In general, diffuse pollution produced by agricultural and livestock raising activities (e.g.

This principle is enshrined in the “Barcelona declaration: the city and people with disabilities” that to date has been signed by 400 European cities.

    COMUNICAT DEL COMISSIONAT PER A LA PRESERVACIÓ I GESTIÓ DEL LITORAL DEL MARESME El Comissionat per a la preservació i gestió del litoral del Maresme, integrat per tots els grups polítics amb representació al Consell Comarcal del Maresme i per la plataforma Preservem el Maresme, en resposta al comunicat de denúncia emès per la plataforma Preservem el Maresme, vol aclarir els següents punts: El document “Estrategia para el litoral del Maresme”, presentat el febrer de 2015 per part del govern central, és resultat del treball dut a terme pels Ajuntaments del Baix Maresme i la Generalitat des de l’any 2012, fruit del qual es va encarregar a la Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya l’elaboració d’una proposta de solució duradora d’estabilització de les platges, amb el propòsit d’evitar més regeneracions amb abocaments de sorra que tenien poca durada, un elevat cost i causaven danys al fons marí. L’UPC va presentar diverses propostes, d’entre les quals la Generalitat i els Ajuntaments del Baix Maresme en van seleccionar una, que és la que finalment el govern central va adoptar com a vàlida. Després de 3 anys sense contacte entre Generalitat i govern central, es va constituir el Comissionat, amb el propòsit d’estendre l’acció conjunta a tota la comarca i evitar les demandes individuals dels Ajuntaments i l’acció puntual de l’Estat sobre el nostre litoral. El 19 de juny del 2018, el Comissionat va acordar una posició de consens de tots els grups polítics assistents a la reunió (ERC, JXCAT, PSC, C´s, PP i ECP) i sense cap oposició, segons la qual es dona ple suport a l’execució de la solució proposada pel Baix Maresme (de Montgat a Caldes d’Estrac) sempre que es garanteixi la correcte execució dels dragatges a través de la contractació d’una empresa externa, però en canvi es demana tornar a estudiar la solució pel que fa a l’Alt Maresme (d’Arenys de Mar a Malgrat de Mar), cercant fórmules naturals d’estabilització per aquest tram de costa.

  • Library Novelties and News
    38 Library novelties and news OPEN SOURCE LANGUAGE VERSION > ESPAÑOL Exhibition A new exhibition on fashion and Catholicism. Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination New York Metropolitan Museum of Art Sílvia Ventosa The Costume Institute at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York hosted an impressive exhibition entitled Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination, based on the idea that fashion and religion are intertwined and that they inspire and engage each other, in the words of Curator in Charge Andrew Bolton. This researcher explains that the starting point for the exhibition was an article published in Newsweek on 20 November 2005 entitled The Pope wears Prada, referencing the designer red loafers worn by Benedict XVI. And the conceptual framework for the exhibition comes from the book by Catholic sociologist Andrew M. Greeley, The Catholic Imagination, which looks at a uniquely Catholic awareness or sensibility, which has its own visual representation and narrative. Although it could have been controversial to create an installation of clothing and other pieces associated with 20th and 21st century fashion in the Medieval, Byzantine and Renaissance halls of the museum, as well as the possible criticism of the Catholic religion and its influence on dress style, the script and set-up were both extremely the 20th and 21st centuries is on display in the respectful of Catholicism. The curator says most of Medieval, Byzantine and Renaissance halls of the the designers represented in the exhibition come from a Catholic background. Only the somewhat Fifth Avenue Metropolitan Museum, as well as hidden projection of the ecclesiastical fashion in the far-off Cloisters, where the pieces co-exist shows from Federico Fellini’s 1972 film Roma with gardens, cloisters and Medieval chapels in one corner of the room sheds a slightly more from France and Spain.

  • Barcelona Is Much More
    DISCOVER WINE TOURISM BARCELONA IS MUCH MORE DISCOVER THE JOYS OF WINE TOURISM Although it may seem a modern form of tourism, wine tourism has actually been popular in the Barcelona regions for some time. Back in the early 20th century, our grandparents visited the cellers in a covered trap that ran between the train station and the winery. Another popular custom was to go to a winery on public holidays, where, if you bought something, they would let you cook your own food. That's a thing of the past now and many wineries cater for organised tours, not just to promote their products, but also to familiarise visitors with the world of wine and cava. Some establishments, country houses and winery hotels offer programmes that enable visitors to join in with the work, enjoy wine therapy treatments and take part in tastings and pairings with wine as the star. And for those who like to keep moving, wine tourism offers the chance to do some hiking or cycling on signposted paths through vineyards a stone's throw from Barcelona. Thanks to all this, Barcelona is much more: a destination full of surprises! If you are a lover of fine wine or simply curious about them, you should know that Barcelona has five designations of origin: Penedès, Alella, Pla de Bages, Catalunya and Cava. Each of them produces high- quality wine and cava. At some wineries quality wine is coupled with beautiful PHOTOGRAPHS: architecture because they are Caves Codorníu, Sant Sadurní d’Anoia either Art Nouveau buildings Caves Codorníu, Sant Sadurní d’Anoia from the early 20th Century Vineyards, Vilassar de Dalt or avant-garde structures Mas de Sant Iscle, Sant Fruitós de Bages Caves Freixenet, Sant Sadurní d’Anoia designed by prestigious Vineyards, El Penedès architects.

Telecommunications: Acesa Telecom, Tradia. Chairman’s Letter Dear Shareholders, Once again I am pleased to have the opportunity to address you with a summary of the evolution and most significant events of the Acesa Group in the past financial year. On this occasion, moreover, allow me to advance that 2001 was an especially significant and important year in the history of our company. It was significant for three motives. Firstly, because Acesa showed that it is a Group which is able to broaden and diversify its investments, within Spain and internationally. Secondly, because the Acesa Group closed the 2001 financial year with very satisfactory results, in spite of the slowdown in the economic growth cycle, increasing net consolidated profit by 5.6% to 172 million euros. And finally, because in the last year we strengthened our strategy as a management Group of infrastructures that facilitate mobility, communication and specifically, the quality of life of the society. In the year 2001 Acesa Group continued the solid, prudent and profitable growth that we hope deserves the confidence shown by own shareholders. Our willingness to grow our main activity in the highway sector and expand towards new business lines associated with infrastructures, has continued – as you can observe in this Annual Report – at a good pace.
