    Who is the author of the 1876 Stefano manuscript?

    No full text
    For over one hundred years the Stefano manuscript was a private document in the possession of the Baccich family and descendants. It told a story of the 1875 Stefano shipwreck as narrated by the shipwreck survivor and the founding family patriarch Miho Baccich. In these circumstances the question of authorship of the manuscript was immaterial and did not arise as an issue. However, with the publication of the manuscript the author‟s name, or names, need to be formally attributed to it. It turns out that this is not such a clear-cut matter. As we shall see, all informed sources attributed the authorship, and the ownership, of the manuscript to Miho Baccich. But the manuscript itself was written by Canon Stjepan Skurla – a priest from Miho‟s hometown of Dubrovnik. The question then arises: should Skurla also be considered as an author of the manuscript, or, even as the sole author (as some would have it)

    From Lausanne to Luxembourg: the CJEU’s Seraing Judgment and the Boundaries of Sports Arbitration Under EU Law

    No full text
    In this expert analysis, Professor Stefano Bastianon dissects the CJEU’s landmark Seraing ruling (Case C-600/23), which reshapes the contours of sports arbitration under EU law. With particular focus on judicial review and EU public policy, the author explores how the Court balances the autonomy of arbitral mechanisms like CAS with the imperative of effective judicial protection — a judgment that could have far-reaching implications for the future of dispute resolution in sport

    ABSTRACT ITALIANO Francesco Ubertini detto il Bachiacca ebbe scarsa fortuna critica ma questo volume di Robert G. La France colma una lacuna grave nella critica d’arte con una solida monografia in lingua inglese che prende in esame tutte le opere e i documenti di questo pittore. Stefano Colonna giudica positivamente il libro, pubblicato da Leo Olschki, limitandosi a sottolineare che alcune opere, inserite come autografe dall’autore, presentino differenti qualità. ENGLISH ABSTRACT Francesco Ubertini called Bachiacca has had little critical fortune, but this book by Robert G. La France fills a serious lacuna in art criticism with a solid English monograph that examines all the existing works and documents. Stefano Colonna welcomes the book published by Leo Olschki and simply points out that some of the works included by the author as autograph have a different quality

    Sustainable Alternatives for Tertiary Treatment of Pulp and Paper Wastewater

    No full text
    In this work, different alternatives to conventional tertiary treatment of pulp and paper (P&P) wastewater (WW), i.e., physicochemical coagulation-flocculation, were investigated to enhance the environmental and economic sustainability of industrial wastewater treatment. In particular, following a preliminary characterization of secondary effluents, cloth filtration and adsorption were studied, the former by pilot-scale tests, while the latter at laboratory scale. An economic analysis was finally accomplished to verify the full-scale applicability of the most promising technologies. Cloth filtration showed excellent total suspended solids (TSS) removal efficiency (mean 81% removal) but a very limited influence on chemical oxygen demand (COD) (mean 10% removal) due to the prevalence of soluble COD on particulate COD. Adsorption, instead, led to a good COD removal efficiency (50% abatement at powdered activated carbon—PAC—dosage of 400 mg/L). The economic analysis proved that adsorption would be convenient only if a local low-cost (100 /ton) adsorbent supply chain was established. Ultrafiltration was considered as well as a potential alternative: its huge capital cost (19 M ) could be recovered in a relatively short timeframe (pay-back time of 4.7 years) if the ultrafiltrated effluent could be sold to local industries

    Stefano Buono* speaks to Commissioning Editor, Sebastian Dennis-Beron: Stefano Buono is the Chief Executive Officer, a member of the board of directors, and a founder of Advanced Accelerator Applications (AAA). He has been responsible for overseeing AAA operations, including the development and commercialization of the current portfolio of diagnostic and therapeutic molecular nuclear medicine products, and listing AAA on Nasdaq (stock symbol: AAAP). Prior to founding the company in 2002, he worked as a physicist at the Centre for Advanced Studies, Research and Development, or CRS4, in Italy. During his 6-year tenure with CRS4, he headed a team of engineers working on different international research projects in the field of energy production and nuclear waste transmutation. Before working at CRS4, and alongside his appointment at CRS4, he worked with Physics Nobel Laureate Carlo Rubbia at The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), the world’s largest research laboratory for particle physics, in Geneva, Switzerland. He actively participated in the development of CERN’s Adiabatic Resonance Crossing (ARC) method. He is the author of numerous scientific papers. He received his Master’s degree in Physics from the University of Turin, in Italy, in 1991. </jats:p

    A respiratory and allergy survey in textile workers employed in early stages of wool processing

    OBJECTIVES: To determine frequency and type of respiratory and allergic symptoms in textile workers employed in early stages of wool processing. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was carried out in four wool textile mills. 202 subjects (n. 148 males, 54 females, mean age 38.9 yrs, SD 9.5) employed in early stages (combing, n. 138, carding, n. 64) of wool processing were examined and an environmental survey was carried out to determine the level of wool dust exposure. All subjects were submitted to clinical interview, spirometry and measurement of serum specific IgE (s-IgE) against extracts of two wool lots (Australia and New Zealand) by means of RAST. In the subjects with a positive questionnaire for allergic symptoms serum specific IgE for common pneumoallergens were measured (PHADIATOP test). RESULTS: We found higher air dust concentrations during carding operations (inspirable fraction-IF-: range 1.6-20 mg/m3; respirable fraction (RF): 0.5-6.9 mg/m3) and lower concentrations during combing (IF 0.3-0.7 mg/m3, RF 0.1-0.3 mg/m3). 70 out of 202 subjects (34.7%, n. 26 employed in carding and n. 44 in combing operations) reported work-related symptoms. Cutaneous itching was reported by 30 subjects, upper airway irritation by 24, ocular irritation by 17 and dyspnoea by 5. Globally 27 subjects (13.4%) had respiratory work-related symptoms. 12 subjects reported only seasonal respiratory symptoms not related to work. Within the group of 82 symptomatic subjects, 62 (75.6%) had serum specific IgE for common pneumoallergens. In the whole group (n. 202) mean basal FEV-1 was L 3.6, SD 0.9 (103.6% of predicted values). No significant difference was found in basal FEV-1 between carding and combing workers. No s-IgE against the two wool extracts was detectable in any of the 202 examined subjects. CONCLUSIONS: Our data show that in early stages of wool processing: 1) the overall frequency of respiratory work-related symptoms is low and does not seem to be related to the stages of processing, 2) symptoms are mainly nasal and/or ocular; 3) serum s-IgE against wool extracts are not detectable. We conclude that respiratory allergy risk in wool textile mills is low
