Presentazione del volume
Diversi approcci teorici e metodologici affrontano il tema della sostenibilità del turismo e della sua promozione in modo innovativo a Milano e in Lombardia. Le molteplici sfaccettature del tema sono affrontate sotto il profilo dell'aumento della qualità e della diffusione del turismo sul territorio.
Il Nuovo Polo Fieristico viene esaminato come nuovo polo turistico e della connettività globale nonché dell'inserimento della Lombardia nel mercato internazionale. Si analizza la specificità della certificazione ambientale degli enti locali e la comunicazione da parte delle amministrazioni pubbliche. Si studiano i modelli di valutazione della sostenibilità applicati dal Comune di Milano, la componente dell'ospitalità per l'applicazione professionale e le problematiche del passato e del presente del turismo sostenibile nella fascia delle Alpi centrali.
Milano viene ancora illustrata sotto il profilo del mutato paesaggio urbano e dell'importanza dei nuovissimi city hotel come icone del paesaggio e motori di sviluppo, nonché come capitale dello stile e della moda quali grandi dinamizzatori dell'immagine di Milano.
Le azioni di marketing territoriale delle Film Commission e il cineturismo ampliano il ventaglio dei punti di osservazione dell'azienda turismo.

Interviews with James Moody, Paquito D'Rivera, and Claudio Roditi
No full textSeparate interviews with James Moody, Paquito D'Rivera, and Claudio Roditi on the topic of Dizzy Gillespie. The exact correspondence of individual interviews and dates is not certain. The interviewer's questions are barely audible on the James Moody interview. Moody discusses Gillespie's health condition at that time, Gillespie's band being the first one he played with professionally in 1946, Gillespie's advice that "everything you want to play is in the piano," the impossibility of playing everything one could possibly play even on one song for one's entire life, the importance of how one chord gets to another, Moody's feeling at 67 like he had not yet reached the peak of his playing, how Gillespie and Charlie Parker played, how musicians spur each other on, the importance of listening, the centrality of rhythm and then melody, rap as poetry and rhythm, Kenny (Pancho) Heygood singing I Waited for You and it becoming a running joke, first joining the Gillespie band when he was 21, Groovin' High as a contrafact on Whispering, the importance of being able to sing lines, praise of Ray Brown, arrangers including Gil Fuller and Tadd Dameron, Chano Pozo and racial categorization in the United States, Pozo having been shot over a publishing dispute and still suffering complications, Gillespie's cadenzas, the advantages of the small band, an analogy to learning a language and gradual understanding, realizing why he was drinking, extended discussion of A Night in Tunisia, the song Kush, pianist Giovanni Hidalgo, Gillespie learning from people like Tito Puente, Xavier Cugat and Gillespie making rhythm more interesting, "race records" still being actively marketed in Gillespie's early career, Gillespie being made a chief in Nigeria, another unidentified residency with multiple musicians, and the half-diminished chord and Gillespie preferring to understand it in its inversion as a minor 6 chord. The interview with James Moody ends at 41:29, and the interview with Paquito D'Rivera begins at 41:39. The audio of the D'Rivera interview begins with discussion of bassist Major Holley, known as "Mule," and father of interviewer Eugene Holley. D'Rivera goes on to discuss Gillespie as an open-minded person, Gillespie's use of Afro-Cuban as well as Brazilian music, his United Nation orchestra, Gillespie introducing Latin American music to Americans and making it a part of North American culture, D'Rivera's book, Music Minus Me, his observation that North American musicians can take Latin American musicians for granted, differences between the musics of different Latin American countries, African influence on Cuban music, European influence in Argentine music, the balance of harmony and rhythm in Brazilian music, how geography separates Brazil from the rest of South America, Gillespie's vision in the United Nation orchestra, D'Rivera's father being a classical saxophone player, Benny Goodman's 1938 Carnegie Hall concert being D'Rivera's first record, getting acquainted with bebop with his father, growing up around Maurio Bauzá and Chico O'Farrill, the arrangement of Tin Tin Deo for the United Nation orchestra, A Night in Tunisia, Manteca, praise of Slide Hampton, the song Guarachi Guaro and its meaning, Chano Pozo not speaking English, Gillespie's ability to show musicians what he wants, Gillespie's "Sherlock Holmes" hat, the 1977 cruise and the Irakere group, D'Rivera's knowledge of Gillespie's music from recordings as preparation for playing in his band, his difficulty understanding Gillespie's English, Gillespie's relationships with Cubans and Latin Americans who have lived in the U.S., Gillespie's generosity, an anecdote of a visit to Bruce Lundvall, and Lincoln Center. The interview with Claudio Roditi begins on the second track. After some discussion of WBGO and the sound setup for the interview, Roditi discusses jazz on the rotary trumpet and discusses his background, his first jazz record (which included Dizzy Gillespie), his second jazz record (the Chet Baker Quartet, Jazz at Ann Arbor), his third record (Miles Davis and John Coltrane), when he started studying Gillespie's technique, Roditi's advice to young players to transcribe and memorize, players influenced by Gillespie whom he studied closely (Freddie Hubbard, Lee Morgan, Fats Navarro), growing up in the musically and rhythmically rich environment of Rio and jazz in that context, how rhythms are different between Brazil and the U.S., the suppression of African drumming in the United States, the influence of Brazil on American culture and the influence of jazz on bossa nova musicians, the musician Pixinguinha, the chromatic approach of Gillespie and Parker that allow more notes in a phrase, Roditi's recommendation of Gillespie's album The Greatest Trumpet of Them All, Gillespie's albums with Sonny Stitt and Sonny Rollins, the 1948-49 big band and the 1956 State Department big band, the impact of the 1956 band in South America, short films like Jivin' in Bebop, when he first played with Gillespie, Gillespie's 70th birthday party, origins and goals of the United Nation orchestra, Charlie Fishman, what kind of flavor Roditi brings to the band and Samba for Carmen as an example, the Free Jazz Festival in Rio, older tunes, UN orchestra arrangers, the evolution of A Night in Tunisia, the persistence of Gillespie's Southern roots, going to Gillespie for advice about the trumpet and convincing Gillespie to change his trumpet mouthpiece, an anecdote about a "wiseass" in the audience in France, Fats Navarro, more on the rotary trumpet, and more on A Night in Tunisia
Expression of procyclin mRNAs during cyclical transmission of <i>Trypanosoma brucei</i>
Get PDF<i>Trypanosoma brucei</i>, the parasite causing human sleeping sickness, relies on the tsetse fly for its transmission. In the insect, EP and GPEET procyclins are the major surface glycoproteins of procyclic (midgut) forms of the parasite, with GPEET predominating in the early procyclic form and two isoforms of EP in the late procyclic form. EP procyclins were previously detected on salivary gland trypanosomes, presumably epimastigotes, by immunoelectron microscopy. However, no procyclins could be detected by mass spectrometry when parasites were isolated from infected glands. We have used qualitative and quantitative RT-PCR to analyse the procyclin mRNAs expressed by trypanosomes in the tsetse midgut and salivary glands at different time points after infection. The coding regions of the three EP isoforms (EP1, EP2 and EP3) are extremely similar, but their 3′ untranslated regions contain unique sequences that make it possible to assign the cDNAs amplified by this technique. With the exception of EP2, we found that the spectrum of procyclin mRNAs expressed in the midgut mirrors the protein repertoire of early and established procyclic forms. Surprisingly, procyclin mRNAs, including that of GPEET, are present at relatively high levels in salivary gland trypanosomes, although the proteins are rarely detected by immunofluorescence. Additional experiments using transgenic trypanosomes expressing reporter genes or mutant forms of procyclin point to a mechanism of translational or post-translational control, involving the procyclin coding regions, in salivary gland trypanosomes. It is widely accepted that T. brucei always has a coat of either variant surface glycoprotein or procyclin. It has been known for many years that the epimastigote form does not have a variant surface glycoprotein coat. The finding that this life cycle stage is usually negative for procyclin as well is new, and means that the paradigm will need to be revis

Cytochrome oxidase subunit VI of Trypanosoma brucei is imported without a cleaved presequence and is developmentally regulated at both RNA and protein levels
Get PDFMitochondrial respiration in the African trypanosome undergoes dramatic developmental stage regulation. This requires co-ordinated control of components encoded by both the nuclear genome and the kinetoplast, the unusual mitochondrial genome of these parasites. As a model for understanding the co-ordination of these genomes, we have examined the regulation and mitochondrial import of a nuclear-encoded component of the cytochrome oxidase complex, cytochrome oxidase subunit VI (COXVI). By generating transgenic trypanosomes expressing intact or mutant forms of this protein, we demonstrate that COXVI is not imported using a conventional cleaved presequence and show that sequences at the N-terminus of the protein are necessary for correct mitochondrial sorting. Analyses of endogenous and transgenic COXVI mRNA and protein expression in parasites undergoing developmental stage differentiation demonstrates a temporal order of control involving regulation in the abundance of, first, mRNA and then protein. This represents the first dissection of the regulation and import of a nuclear-encoded protein into the cytochrome oxidase complex in these organisms, which were among the earliest eukaryotes to possess a mitochondrion
