4 Senior Explorers with Impressive Reputations
As a leading provider of home care, North Coast Home Care Assistance enjoys highlighting the lives of seniors who have accomplished impressive feats despite their age. The following 4 inspirational senior explorers prove it is possible to successfully go on extreme adventures in the golden years.
1. Reinhold Messner
Messner is a 72-year-old famous Italian adventurer who longitudinally crossed the Gobi Desert on foot in 2004, which is approximately 2,000 kilometers. He earned bragging rights when he climbed Mount Everest solo. Messner, along with fellow explorer Arven Fuchs, also crossed Antarctica on skis.
2. Sydney Possuelo
Possuelo is a 76-year-old Brazilian adventurer who has led hundreds of expeditions throughout the Amazon Jungle. In 2002, he led a 76-day expedition to locate the Arrow People. To this day, Possuelo continues to protect tribes from danger and has won many prestigious awards for his work and expeditions. In 2001, he won the United Nations "Hero of the Year" award.
3. Junko Tabei
Tabei was a 77-year-old Japanese explorer who passed away in October 2016. Between 1990 and 1991, she reached the highest point of Mount Vinson, which is Antarctica's highest mountain. In 1992, she conquered Puncak Jaya and became the first woman to finish the Seven Summits. Even after her cancer diagnosis in 2012, she proved to be a true inspiration when she bravely continued to do most of her mountaineering activities.
4. Yuichiro Miura
Born in 1932, Miura is a senior thrill-seeker who has earned the impressive honour of becoming the oldest individual to climb Mount Everest at 80 years old in 2013, which he also did two previous times in his 70s. In 1970, he bravely skied down Everest's South Col, using a parachute to stop his descent. A 1975 documentary was made about his extreme skiing adventure. Aside from Mount Everest, Miura has also proudly skied down Mount Fuji, the highest mountain in Japan.

Jeans For Genes Day takes place on 18th September 2015 is an awareness day run by Genetic Disorders UK to raise awareness about genetic disorders and their effects on individual children and their families. The day calls for people to wear jeans and donate time and money towards raising awareness about genetic disorders in children.
Money raised by organisations and schools on Jeans for Genes Day funds a range of initiatives that improve the quality of life of children and families affected by genetic disorders.
Families with children suffering from genetic disorders such as Sickle Cell Anaemia, Brittle Bones Disease, Achondroplasia, chronic granulomatous disorder (CGD) often find it hard providing the necessary care to ensure their child has the best possible care. Often, the children suffering with genetic disorders suffer from stigma, bullying and find it hard to find qualified carers. Supporting Jeans For Genes Day helps raise awareness of their situation, the causes and raises funds that are used to provide better care for children suffering from genetic disorders.
There is plenty of information on the Jeans For Genes Day website including poster packs and activity ideas. Click here to access the Jeans For Genes day organisational toolkit page. The page is well covered with fundraising guides, merchandise information for your business to purchase and sell to raise money and event ideas.
Any business that serves families or children, or with employees that have young families would be an ideal business to support Genetic Disability UK's Jeans For Genes Day.
For more information about how your business can effectively promote Jeans For Genes day as part of your marketing and online marketing activities, email info@awarenessday.co.uk and we'll be happy to help.

Named One of the Top 10 Best Museums for Families in 2017 by USA Today, The Children's Museum of Pittsburgh has been committed to creating a place of "real stuff" experiences for play and learning ever since they opened their doors on June 12, 1983. This museum serves multiple locations, including the North Side neighborhood of Pittsburgh, the City of Pittsburgh, and surrounding counties including Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Lawrence, Washington, and Westmoreland; individuals and families, however, come from all areas nationwide. While serving around 306,000 visitors annually, The Children's Museum of Pittsburgh provides the following permanent exhibits: The Studio, MAKESHOP, Waterplay, the Nursery, and the Backyard. With their continued focus on imagination and inclusion, this award winning museum is creating a space for everyone to enjoy.
Through my research of The Children's Museum of Pittsburgh's website, their financial statements, articles related to children's museums, and other resourceful information, I found many strengths within the non profit organization. They have a large donation following, receiving in-kind donations anywhere from gifts of monetary value, to sums of money from $100 to over $200,000. Donations of any stature help tremendously within nonprofit organizations because they use these funds to keep the institution open and running. Having financial stability is every nonprofit's goal, making grant allocation easier and long-term retention more common. Also, they have created partnerships with organizations such as Allies for Children, Reading is FUNdamental Pittsburgh, The Saturday Light Brigade, Head Start/Pre-K Classrooms for Pittsburgh Public Schools, and The University of Pittsburgh's Center for Learning in Out-of-School Environments. These particular partnerships are more in-line with being promotional partners for each other because they are organizations that complement Children's Museum and have similar missions. The Children's Museum of Pittsburgh is helping these organizations with resources and the creation of more opportunities. This museum also has a very diverse Board of Directors which follows in line with their mission of being Committed to Diversity through the inclusion of visitors, staff, and board members. In 2015-2016 they were creating revenue. Their wide range of studio classes, events, workshops, and thirteen exhibits to view and experience enables visitors to return with new things to do every time. This information can be found in their 2016 Annual Report.
With their ongoing list of strengths, the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh has a few weaknesses. The first major weakness that I found was their social media platforms. They have a decent number of followers but not a lot of interaction with their posts as in likes, comments, or shares.
Also, there is not a huge emphasis on the collection artwork in the museum. They are very focused on the hands-on exhibits, but there is permanent and rotating artwork within the museum that seems to be often overlooked and passed. The cost of admission, $16 for adults, is a higher price than most other children's museums in the United States and they only have one food option for a very large facility.
Any company or organization has opportunities to grow and develop their institution. One opportunity that has been shown in "Museum Notes" (https://museumnotes.blogspot.com/2012/09/) is the increased parental interests in museums and for their children to gain the experience and knowledge museums withhold. With this interest, there is the opportunity to create classes or events for parents to learn things to take home to teach their children they can do on an everyday basis, not just at a museum. They could also take their weakness of not having a great deal of focus on the collection of artwork they have housed there and give it a greater emphasis. The collection could be utilized with education initiatives and events like artist talks surrounding specific artwork.
Being among the top 10 greatest family museums, there are not many threats to the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh. However, the Carnegie Museum of Art also in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania could be considered a threat because it also offers children's studio classes and workshops. They are on the higher end of admission costs, and the location of the museum may be difficult for some because it is in the city and parking is not always an easy task.
Overall, the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh is a well-established and well-known institution that does very well in the Pittsburgh community providing a quality learning experience for children of all ages, even adults! With things that could be improved, this museum sets high standards and continually meets those standards with new and improved exhibitions and visitor interest. I look forward to continuing researching this interesting non profit organization.

FIBA: Juan Gomez de Liaño named among top performers of Asia Cup bubble
Posted at Dec 03 2020 12:52 PM
Juan Gomez de Liano of the Philippines during their first game against Thailand in the November 2020 window of the FIBA Asia Cup 2021 qualifiers. FIBA.basketball.
MANILA, Philippines -- Dwight Ramos and Javi Gomez de Liaño led the way in scoring, but it was the younger Juan Gomez de Liaño who earned plaudits for his solid play for Gilas Pilipinas in the recently concluded window of the FIBA Asia Cup 2021 qualifiers.
Ramos stole the show in the Philippines' first game in Manama, Bahrain, making all seven of his field goals to score 20 points in their 93-61 rout of Thailand.
Three days later, it was Javi who fired 19 points in another comfortable win, 93-69, over Thailand.
But FIBA took note of Juan's steady performances in both games as well as his penchant for hitting big shots that kept Gilas in control when it seemed that Thailand was ready to make a run.
"In both games, it was the younger Juan Gomez De Liaño that made big shots and big plays to get the momentum swinging the Philippines' way," according to a FIBA report.
"Juan dazzled the fans and dazed the defense with his dribbling, but when it was time to stick in the dagger shots, he was able to do that too," they added. "Thailand found that out the hard way when they were bombarded by De Liaño's timely three-pointers."
The younger Gomez De Liaño averaged 13.0 points and 3.5 assists per game, while making seven of the 14 three-pointers that he took in two games.
The Philippines improved to 3-0 in Group A, topping the group after two qualifying windows.
Other players who made it to FIBA's list of the top five best performers for the second window are: Lebanon's Wael Arakji, who averaged 22.5 points per game; Bahrain's Mohamed Kawaid, who averaged 15.5 points and 7.0 rebounds per game; Syria's George "Trey" Kell III, who averaged 34.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 5.0 assists per game while leading the way in their upset of Iran; and Saudi Arabia's Mohammed Alsuwailem, who put up 13.5 points, 11.0 rebounds, and 3.0 blocks per game.

Strategic investment: making geopolitical sense of the EU's defence industrial policy
This Chaillot Paper focuses on new EU initiatives in the defence domain – in particular the creation of the European Defence Fund – and on the Union's evolving role and engagement in this sector.
The EU increasingly makes use of crisis scenarios to forecast the future and identify capability gaps. This Brief shows how simulations and exercises can only add value to preparedness efforts when they are but one element of a wider crisis response architecture.
The EU and NATO
Gustav Lindstrom, Thierry Tardy
With contributions from
Daniel Fiott, Christian Kaunert, Bruno Lété, Alexander Mattelaer, Hanna Smith, Simon J. Smith, Bart M.J. Szewczyk, Ori Wertman, Katharine A.M. Wright
The EUISS and the Research Division of the NATO Defense College joined forces to examine NATO-EU cooperation from a variety of angles. Specifically, this publication analyses interaction between both organisations by focusing on the main areas of cooperation identified in the two Joint Declarations.
EUISS Yearbook of European Security 2019
The 2019 Yearbook of European Security provides an overview of events in 2018 that were significant for European security and charts major developments in the EU's external action and security and defence policy.
The poison pill: EU defence on US terms?
In light of rising tensions between Washington and the EU over defence markets, this Brief looks at the asymmetry between US and European defence markets. It examines the web of regulations and laws which effectively provides the US government with the discretionary power to control its defence market and technologies.
Protecting Europe
Daniel Fiott, Roderick Parkes
This Chaillot Paper seeks to provide practical and operational insights on how the EU can best respond to and counter hybrid threats. It focuses on three key policy domains that are of vital significance in a hybrid context – borders, critical infrastructure and disinformation.
The scrutiny of the European Defence Fund by the European Parliament and national parliaments
Since 2016, the European Union has developed a number of new initiatives on security and defence. Commissioned by the European Parliament's Sub-Committee on Security and Defence, this Study analyses how the European Parliament and national parliaments can effectively scrutinise the European Defence Fund.
What if....? Scanning the horizon: 12 scenarios for 2021
Florence Gaub
Marko Čeperković, Giovanni Faleg, Daniel Fiott, Florence Gaub, Gustav Lindstrom, Roderick Parkes, Annelies Pauwels, Patryk Pawlak, Eva Pejsova, Stanislav Secrieru, Nathalie Van Raemdonck, John-Joseph Wilkins
The 150th Chaillot Paper produced by the EUISS, this publication aims to alert decision-makers to potential developments with significant strategic impact while they can still prepare for, or even avoid them.
30November 2018
Strategic autonomy: towards 'European sovereignty' in defence?
Strategic autonomy. Two familiar words that are yet again in vogue in Europe but which cause confusion and, in some quarters, even alarm. This Brief compares the range of defence initiatives that have been developed by the EU since 2016 against three different conceptual visions of strategic autonomy: autonomy as responsibility, autonomy as hedging and autonomy as emancipation.
Artificial Intelligence – What implications for EU security and defence?
Daniel Fiott, Gustav Lindstrom
This Brief seeks to advance the discussion about AI and security and defence within an EU context, and also to offer policymakers a few analytical pointers that may be useful when dealing with defence and AI.

Music - Singles of the week - Friday, June 14, 2019
IndieLondon gleefully checks out the cream of the week's singles
SINGLE OF THE WEEK 1: BAT FOR LASHES – KIDS IN THE DARK: It's been a while but Bat For Lashes return with a genuinely laidback, beautiful new single in the form of Kids in the Dark. Taken from the forthcoming Lost Girls LP (out in September), this finds lead singer Khan employing similarly mellow vocals, while backed by lush electronic soundscapes that sometimes conjure the memory of '80s teen movies. But there's a darker element underpinning the lyrics, which talk of 'a body bag' and 'endless sleeping pills'. It's a bittersweet journey, with danger bubbling beneath the smooth veneer of the surface sound. But that's just the way we like it. This has a cinematic majesty to rival its intimate beauty, making this a fiercely compelling, intelligent listen in truly classic Bat For Lashes fashion.

SINGLE OF THE WEEK 2: KAISER CHIEFS – PEOPLE KNOW HOW TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER: Kaiser Chiefs have announced the release of anthemic new single People Know How To Love One Another alongside details of a UK arena tour in January 2020 (including the O2 Arena on February 1). A riposte to the current state of divided Britain, this was partly inspired by the political and social chaos kickstarted by the Brexit fiasco. But in true Kaiser Chiefs form, the track is also an uplifting mix of radiant melodies and Northern Soul-style grooves. Its message of positivity came from guitarist Whitey. "It's the antithesis of Every Day I Love You Less And Less," says Wilson. "The title is a statement – there's no judgement or 'this is how you should live your life', no bravado, it's just, 'this is how it is.' It reminded me of our first record." Bassist Simon Rix thinks the world in 2019 needs a song with such a declaration of human warmth. "It's a really important song and a great message for Brexit Britain." Hence, you can expect a repetitive central message, delivered with giddy abandon, to create something truly sing-along, ultra anthemic and utterly crowd-pleasing.

VIDEO OF THE WEEK 1: THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS – EVE OF DESTRUCTION: To coincide with the announcement of several shows this November, The Chemical Brothers have also dropped a stunning video for their new single Eve of Destruction, the opening track from their acclaimed new album, No Geography. A staple of the band's DJ sets for the last two years, Eve of Destruction is based around a relentless groove that gives way to a jacking house chorus. It's high energy, dance friendly and mixes genres as only the brothers have worked out how. It also features vocals from Norwegian singer Aurora and Japanese rapper Nene, as if to underline the track's shape-shifting sensibilities. And while, for some, the relentless nature of the beats and woozy electronics might be too monotonous, this is a crowd-pleaser that will set the dancefloor ablaze whenever it comes on. Little wonder, then, it's become such a live favourite. The single is released ahead of their headline slot at Glastonbury Festival this month, while a stunning visual for the track has been created by the band's longterm collaborators Adam Smith and Marcus Lyall, featuring all manner of weird and wonderful fighters – part video game based, yet populated by live-action people with an emphasis on Japanese culture.
VIDEO OF THE WEEK 2: LIAM GALLAGHER – SHOCKWAVE (VIDEO): Liam Gallagher has dropped the incendiary and typically attitude-laden video for his new single, Shockwave. Directed by the award-winning François Rousselet, the video sets Liam's swaggering charisma to some striking, cinematic-scale photography. It takes him on a voyage through America's Deep South, from desolate wastelands to train tracks and large scale protests. Could the song itself be more signature, though? Erupting into life with a beast of a riff, which deliberately channels The Who and T. Rex, the song then drops a blast of harmonica before Liam bursts in on the incessant hook with typical venom and punch. Vocally, there's just no getting away from the sound of Liam. The hard rock 'n' roll swagger is also pure Gallagher, boasting the same kind of no-nonsense hallmark and hard living that has become his hallmark. The glam influences also hint at classic T-Rex. But this is a lived-in sound, harking back to a classic style of delivery as only Liam knows how. Whether that's really a stretch for him, though, is another point entirely. Liam is operating well within his comfort zone here (unlike brother Noel's High Flying Birds). So, while familiar in a good, head-nodding kind of way, the song gets marked down a little for refusing to take many risks. The lyrics go like this: "You sold me right down the river, you had to hold me back… you could've looked for the sunshine, but you had to paint the whole thing black. It's coming round like a shockwave!" Liam wrote Shockwave with two of the key collaborators behind the critically-acclaimed As You Were album: Andrew Wyatt, who won the Academy Award for Best Original Song as co-writer of Shallow from the film A Star Is Born, and the multiple Grammy-winner Greg Kurstin who also produced the track. It was recorded in Los Angeles. The track also marks the first taste of his forthcoming second album Why Me? Why Not.
JORJA SMITH – GOODBYES: In the wake of headlining Field Day 2019, being announced as Dior Beauty's latest ambassador, receiving an Ivor Novello nomination for Blue Lights and an incredible 17-date collaborative tour with Kali Uchis, Jorja Smith today unveils her new visual for the hauntingly beautiful Goodbyes. Taken from her Mercury Music Prize-nominated album Lost & Found, the evocative track sees Jorja discussing the process of mourning and regret after death. Its intimate, stripped back [with only an acoustic guitar for support] and devastatingly honest. She explains: "Goodbyes is a song for anyone who has not been able to say their last words; to say goodbye to someone. Rashid and I filmed the video at home. I just sang as I wanted to create a homely feel. Then me and my friends set off fire lanterns for the people we miss." The sensitively filmed visual, which through its direct and honest focus, inspires an intense feeling of emotion, was directed by Jorja's long-term collaborator Rashid Babiker (On Your Own) and shot at Jorja's home. Rashid continues: "Jorja called me and said get your camera let's shoot a music video in my flat for Goodbyes and see what we come up with. She expressed to me she wanted to take things back to basics and strip the theatrics. We shot a performance piece with Jorja mostly looking down the barrel of the lens, something understated and simple that allowed the emotion in the lyrics to take center stage which didn't need much visual interpretation…. then we had friends over for drinks in the eve, someone brought me flowers, we let off some biodegradable short burning lanterns off for lost ones at night and got our shoes muddy. Best shoot ever and another chapter in my visual odyssey with Jorja."
DJ SNAKE, J BALVIN & TYGA – LOCO CONTIGO: DJ Snake, J Balvin and Tyga have shared a bouncy, Latino infused new summer anthem called Loco Contigo and it's nearly impossible not to get a little jiggy with it. With its seductive rhythms, otherworldly beats and ear-friendly melodies, Loco Contigo finds DJ Snake and his collaborators attempting to redefine Latin music for today's pop landscape. Latin Grammy Award-winner J Balvin graces the track with the smooth vocals, lending something of a hip hop vibe, without ever coming over too urban or gritty. Rather, he seems to be settling back into the track's smooth rhythms and delivering a vocal that's equally soothing. It's got summer hit written all over it. The eye-catching video has been directed by Colin Tilley (an award-winning filmmaker known for his work with artists like Kendrick Lamar, Rihanna, and Nicki Minaj) and is also well worth checking out. Loco Contigo arrives as the latest in a series of successful singles from DJ Snake, including the all-star hip-hop anthem Enzo (a collaboration with Sheck Wes, featuring Offset, 21 Savage & Gucci Mane) and the double-platinum international smash Taki Taki (feat. Selena Gomez, Ozuna& Cardi B).
REN – SPENCER STREET: Ren announces his new single Spencer Street as a follow-up to last month's well received Blue Hounds. Unlike that track, a protest song in the classic mould, Spencer Street is, as Ren explains "a nostalgic song reflecting on a relationship and life I had in Newcastle a few years ago". "I wrote it whilst I was on the road a year or so after the break up. But Spencer Street with her still felt like home to me," he continued. Recorded during downtime at a famous London studio, it was engineered and produced by Jim Abbiss' former assistant engineer up and coming producer George Chung. Mixed by Paul Gregory (Lanterns on the Lake) and mastered by Noel Summerville (The Clash, The Police, Elvis Costello). The result is an intimate offering, chock full of reflective, heartfelt sentiments. There's some nicely measured acoustic guitar and piano to accompany it for most of the way, until a mid-track guitar interlude plugs things in to excellent effect. Vocally, Ren does keep things low-key and subtle (think Paul Simon crossed with Joshua Radin), but this only adds to the intimate and personal nature of the song as a whole. It has a genuinely endearing quality. Ren – born Conor Owen in East Ham, East London to a Mum from Dublin and a Dad from Liverpool – is now based in Newcastle after studying music in London
JACKIE COHEN – YESTERDAY'S BABY: Jackie Cohen has released an official video for her song, Yesterday's Baby, and brings a sense of playfulness to an already bright and breezy track with something to say. The track is taken from her debut album Zagg, which is out now via Spacebomb. Adrian Vega-Albela Osorio – who also directed the video for FMK and Jackie's Zagg Chats interview series – captured Jackie with bandmate Kevin Basko scootering around familiar spots in Jackie's Los Angeles-area neighborhood. Speaking of the shoot, Jackie herself shares: "The San Fernando valley gets a bad rap for being this dull, suburban area outside of LA, but I love the val and think people have it so backwards. What we lack in Rick and Morty themed barcade brunch spots, we make up for in Ventura Blvd realness, Pegasus Fashion Lounges & pure Cheesecake Factory culture. I wanted the Zagg videos to feel true to my home, the heart of the record, and for 'Yesterday's Baby', Adrian captured and hyper-saturated all the long afternoon colors. It's vibrant and breezy and hot and sweaty. Also Kev is a sick Limer. Legitimately talented if he ever wanted to make a second career out of it." Combining elements of space pop and glam, the single has a highly melodic, bouncy quality that also offers up some telling observations about the state of modern society, all relayed from a retro slant. It's clever, it's catchy and it's fun.
Heard a great single, but yet to buy it? Well, we may have reviewed it. Previous reviews:

Мамини синови је српска телевизијска серија која је била снимана 2017. где се емитовала у пар наврата по неколико епизода, док се на јесен 2019. поново емитовала на телевизији Прва у целости.

Радња

Серијал од 42. епизоде прати заједнички живот мајке Росе, која је потпуно подетињила у старости, и њеног сина Милентија - Бебе, који одавно није дете. Својим немешањем, Росин старији син Миша, као по правилу, додатно компликује ситуацију. У овој игри, свако има свој циљ, али једно је јасно - победника нема. Роса не може без Бебе, Беба не може са Росом, а Миша, једноставно, нема времена.

У том зачараном кругу, кроз читав низ урнебесних ситуација и заплета пратимо како родитељско кормило стално мења капетана, али брод упорно плови у смеру који Беби најмање одговара. Оно што је сигурно јесте да није лако наћи жену кад живиш са мајком.

Једног дана Беба одлучује да смести Росу у старачки дом, што и чини. Међутим, због лоше хране Роса подиже револуцију у старачком дому, те је избацују и враћају Беби, баш у тренутку када је на корак да води љубав са својом некадашњом девојком.

Улоге

Главне

Епизодне

Ликови
 Розалија Роса Поповић
Наизглед беспомоћна старица, удовица. Мама Роса има старијег сина Мишу, на којег је бескрајно поносна, и млађег, неснађеног сина Бебу, кога обожава... да мучи. И којег би да задржи поред себе, по сваку цену. Зато, када ствари почну да измичу контроли, Роса из рукава извлачи карту која увек добија. Карту "губљења разума".
 Милентије Беба Поповић
Таксиста од четрдесет година који иза себе има два незавршена факултета и пропали брак. Живи са мајком, за коју је претерано везан и сви Бебини покушаји да среди свој живот завршавају се само као још један у низу неуспеха.
 Михајло Миша Поповић
Доктор пластичне хирургије, који важи за успешног човека за разлику од млађег брата Бебе. Самодовољан, изгледа да је пронашао прави рецепт да буде обожаван од стране свих жена у свом животу, било да је у питању мила мамица, супруга Јока или силне туђе жене.
 Јока
Јока је Мишина супруга која тешко подноси Мишина неверства, али не одустаје од своје визије идеалног живота који јој, по њеном мишљењу, припада. Утеху и мир покушава пронаћи уз помоћ јоге, здраве исхране и најразличитијих сеанси.
 Нина
Бебина бивша жена и љубав коју Беба никако не може да прежали. Ни Нина није равнодушна према Беби, али је између живота са Бебом и његовом мајком, изабрала да живи сама.

Biografia

Formazione
Gli anni di formazione a Napoli non sono facili per Antonio Sicurezza, soprattutto per gli evidenti sacrifici economici che i genitori devono sostenere. Porta comunque a compimento gli studi con successo, vincendo una borsa di studio quale concorrente più meritevole tra le quattro facoltà dell'Accademia di belle arti di Napoli. Consegue la maturità artistica e il diploma in pittura sotto la guida dei maestri Carlo Siviero, Vincenzo Volpe, Vincenzo Migliaro e Paolo Vetri.

Il primo contatto con il territorio formiano si ha negli anni 1933-1934, quando viene chiamato a dipingere la cappella di Sant'Antonio nella chiesa dell'Annunziata a Maranola. Qui incontra Virginia Mastrogiovanni che sposa nel 1934. Virginia, maestra elementare, lo spinge all'insegnamento del disegno nelle scuole. Dopo i primi anni vissuti nella pace idilliaca della frazione arroccata alle falde del Monte Altino, si trasferiscono a Castellone di Formia, acquistando una casa con terreno sulla collina di Santa Maria la Noce.

La guerra e la ricostruzione
Nei momenti più difficili della guerra la famiglia, composta ormai di quattro figli, è costretta a rifugiarsi prima in grotta sulle montagne nel territorio di Coreno Ausonio, poi, con attraversamento del fronte, fino in Calabria. Al termine della guerra il rientro a Formia, dove la casa di Santa Maria la Noce è rimasta miracolosamente in piedi, anche se abitata da formiani senza tetto e con tutto ciò che vi era andato distrutto: dai servizi da tavola ai quadri raffiguranti brocche e contadine, bersagli per i soldati.

La ricostruzione e il ritorno del benessere, per alcuni, fanno venir meno la fase solidaristica dell'immediato dopoguerra. Le chiese sono andate distrutte o danneggiate. In Santa Teresa sono finiti in frammenti gli Angeli musicanti che il pittore aveva dipinto per la cappella della Madonna di Pompei, mentre vengono ritrovati tra le macerie due ovali raffiguranti Leone XIII e il Beato Bartolo Longo.

La ricerca di committenti per le nuove pale d'altare, in sostituzione di quelle antiche ormai distrutte, non è facile, sia per l'ostilità di parte del clero, sia per l'ancora difficile situazione economica. Occorre adattarsi al limitato mercato che richiede rappresentazioni religiose in linea con l'iconografia più tradizionale; cosa che l'artista accetta per non precludersi future committenze più libere nella realizzazione e per un oggettivo bisogno economico.

La maturità artistica

Quando Antonio Sicurezza può finalmente esprimersi più liberamente, si hanno risultati artisticamente pregevoli, come le opere dell'abside di San Giovanni, la Santa Albina nella chiesa di Sant'Erasmo, e poi, soprattutto, il San Francesco e l'Annunziata presso la Madonna del Carmine e il San Rocco di Pico.
Va notato che nei paesaggi alle spalle delle figure il pittore rappresenta in modo volutamente semplice, perché i fedeli li riconoscano con immediatezza, gli scorci e i monumenti locali, come nella Santa Albina e nel San Francesco, dove è particolarmente significativa la vista dell'ampio golfo di Gaeta.

L'insegnamento risulta condizionante per Antonio Sicurezza, perché - pur consentendogli di stare tra i giovani, che sente molto vicini e spesso migliori degli adulti - riduce il tempo disponibile per dedicarsi alla pittura.

Nella stagione estiva può portarsi all'aperto per dipingere paesaggi e vicoli, mentre per il resto dell'anno lavora soprattutto con carboncino e colori ad acquerello o a tempera. Produce bozzetti e studi per le opere religiose commissionategli, oppure dipinge nature morte che raffigura con immediatezza e leggerezza, ma che non soddisfano la sua voglia di costruire la rappresentazione collocandola nell'atmosfera e nella luce.

Quando, dopo l'estate del 1965, non riceve più incarichi di insegnamento, si trova finalmente a disporre del tempo che gli era mancato. Può attrezzare il vasto studio che, in mezzo a carrubi e fichi d'India, aveva fatto costruire sul terreno di Santa Maria la Noce. Gli risulta così più facile preparare bozzetti e cartoni di grandi dimensioni per le opere di soggetto religioso e poi, limitando il carboncino e i pastelli agli studi, può dedicarsi sistematicamente alla pittura ad olio, soprattutto per la figura umana e per la natura morta.

In realtà la svolta stilistica, che gli fa prediligere la pittura ad olio e che vede l'uso sistematico e quasi esclusivo della spatola al posto del pennello, si verifica già alla fine degli anni Cinquanta. Una parte dei quadri esposti nella personale romana del luglio 1961, compresi i due già premiati alla mostra d'arte contemporanea tenutasi a Torino nel quadro delle manifestazioni di Italia '61, sono già testimonianza dell'uso della spatola per costruire la figura umana e gli oggetti.

Con i figli ormai grandi, si assiste a un maggiore impegno per mostre personali e collettive. L'impressione che si coglie, studiando questa ricerca di visibilità, è quella di mancanza di regia, di casualità nelle iniziative basate su proposte esterne non sufficientemente verificate; il che è facilmente comprensibile per la mancanza di un gallerista o di un agente, e per l'essere il pittore rimasto sempre legato a una realtà provinciale, lontana dalle scelte artistiche del momento e dalla classe culturale e politica che a queste sovrintende. Nonostante tutto ciò non mancano i riconoscimenti e diversi premi, mentre notizie su di lui con riproduzioni delle sue opere si trovano in vari cataloghi relativi ad artisti contemporanei.

L'intensa produzione e gli ultimi anni
Con l'avanzare dell'età, Antonio Sicurezza e la moglie si spostano prima da Santa Maria la Noce a Vindicio e da qui a Formia centro. L'ultima casa appare più confusionaria delle precedenti per l'esigenza del pittore di valorizzare, a seconda del soggetto da dipingere, la luce di ogni finestra. Eppure, nonostante l'età e il disordine, il lavoro è intensissimo. Per eseguire un quadro impiega intorno alle cinque sedute, il che significa almeno due nuove opere ogni settimana. Ama infatti lavorare sia di mattino che al pomeriggio, spesso dedicando le prime energie al lavoro più complesso come il nudo o comunque la figura umana. Nel salotto le pareti sono interamente coperte da quadri incorniciati, mentre altri sono semplicemente appoggiati negli angoli; è qui che vengono ricevuti gli amici e gli ammiratori. Sono realizzati in questo periodo i gruppi di giovani con strumenti musicali che il pittore chiama "concertini", molti nudi, vigorose nature morte, ancora alcuni esterni.

Eccezionalmente nell'agosto del 1978 Antonio Sicurezza non si reca a Santa Maria Capua Vetere, all'annuale appuntamento con l'Assunta; si sente debole per l'inizio della manifestazione del male che, un anno dopo, il 29 agosto 1979, lo porterà a morire all'età di 74 anni.

Analisi critica

La poetica della pittura di Antonio Sicurezza è certamente fondata su valori per lui irrinunciabili: il rispetto della dignità umana e la sacralità del lavoro. Il pittore ha continuato a ricercare e a sperimentare con costante applicazione per lunghi anni, fino a raggiungere la sua caratteristica capacità di sintesi nella rappresentazione.

La sua maturazione stilistica arriva a basarsi su due elementi fondamentali: la costruzione fisica del soggetto, con ricorso sempre maggiore alla spatola per distribuire e sovrapporre il colore, e l'accennato, il volutamente incompiuto intorno al tema principale. Il risultato di tutto questo è un realismo soggettivo. Attraverso il filtro dell'artista, la rappresentazione è attenta e puntuale per il suo tema principale e per le parti alle quali viene assegnato un ruolo significativo; la stessa rappresentazione è stemperata e talora solo da intuire nelle restanti parti e perlopiù alla periferia della composizione.

Altre due considerazioni vanno fatte, sul colore e sull'atmosfera. Per il colore Sicurezza manifesta una passione particolare e accetta sfide difficili. Per l'atmosfera occorre chiarire che si tratta di atmosfera come fatto fisico: l'atmosfera di quell'angolo di mondo dove il pittore è vissuto e che si caratterizza per straordinaria trasparenza e luminosità, e nella quale sistematicamente si collocano, ricevendone sicurezza e serenità, i soggetti dei suoi quadri.

Antonio Sicurezza, in un secolo che trasforma profondamente la realtà, si pone caparbiamente nel filone del realismo. L'artista, al tempo stesso umile e ostinato, riesce a trovare la sua formula di espressione: antica nel retaggio, originale e moderna nella realizzazione.

Elio Marcianò per il nudo femminile osserva che «la realtà terrena delle belle figure di fanciulle è permeata di amore, di classica compiutezza, di casta nudità». Guido Bernardi pone invece la sua attenzione sulle umili cose rappresentate nei dipinti del pittore, il quale, «con una splendida intuizione dell'oggetto figurato», riesce a trasmettere «continui spunti di gioia e di riflessione».

Mario Lepore ascrive alle opere di Antonio Sicurezza «la saldezza di un mestiere non soltanto ben conosciuto ma anche ricco di risorse e, ciò che più conta, emerge un temperamento autentico, dalle vive capacità narrative e pittoriche. Le qualità disegnative e compositive, la sensibilità per il colore e la luce, la realtà probamente ma anche poeticamente osservata, gli permettono di raggiungere sovente begli accenti».

Altri interventi critici sono spesso accomunati da un sottile filo conduttore che individua nell'artista valori primitivi e naturali: l'attaccamento alle tradizioni popolari, l'onestà morale, l'umiltà e la franca semplicità.

The Prompt Whisperer: ChatGPT's Rising Reach In B2B Marketing & The AI Revolution
Lane Ellis on Jan 11th, 2023
How is ChatGPT artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot technology poised to revolutionize B2B marketing in 2023, and what dangers do marketers and brands need to navigate in order to make the most of it?
For a prototype that launched a mere two months ago, ChatGPT — which is short for generative pre-trained transformer — has initiated a surprising explosion in how people are putting the technology to use.
It's also raised new questions that touch on the very fabric of online communication.
Let's take a look at the technology ChatGPT and various offshoot programs offer, including some of the very real benefits it offers to B2B marketers, along with an assortment of pitfalls to avoid.
How Influencer Marketing Can Drive a Full Funnel Content Strategy
Joshua Nite on Jan 9th, 2023
B2B Marketing, Influencer Marketing
In case you're new to the blog, our agency is pretty sold on B2B influencer marketing. Now, when we say influencer marketing, we're not talking about tanned and toned Gen Z'ers sitting poolside, endorsing your SaaS solution. At least not for your first campaign.
No, influence in B2B is all about value and credibility:
Your brand lends credibility & new audience to influencers
Influencers lend credibility & new audience to your brand
Both audiences get trustworthy, valuable content
As our recent report shows, B2B marketers are steadily increasing their influencer marketing sophistication. But despite the progress, many still think of it as an exclusively upper-funnel tactic.
Just like content marketing, however, influencer marketing works better with a full-funnel approach.

How to Create Memorable B2B Experiences for When Your Prospect Is Ready to Buy
Nick Nelson on Jan 4th, 2023
B2B Marketing, Content Marketing
The concept of jogging someone's memory seems, on its surface, like an unscientific and inscrutable undertaking.
Memories and mental associations pop up at random. Right? The smell of a bakery reminds you of grandma's cinnamon rolls. The color of a street sign invokes your old high school colors and jovial pep rallies. A friend's choice of words causes you to blurt out a line from a classic comedy movie.
The thing is, these moments aren't random. The memories are physically stored in your brain, and the scenarios and experiences that took place caused them to trigger in your consciousness.
Understanding this cause-and-effect relationship holds the key to effective B2B marketing that bridges brand with demand and leads to sustainable customer pipelines.
B2B Twitter Alternatives: Mastodon, Post & Others Offer New Marketing Opportunities

B2B Marketing, Social Media
Where are B2B marketers turning to fill the void an increasing number of brands are facing having paused or left the Twitter platform?
Increasing numbers of brands and users have turned away from Twitter since its recent ownership change and subsequent top-down shifts in some of the platform's fundamental policies.
Mainstay B2B brands have joined their B2C counterparts in either taking a temporary break from publishing and advertising on Twitter, or in some cases pulling the plug entirely.
This has led B2B marketers into an unusual period in the history of social media — one perhaps not seen since Google's Plus platform shuttered its doors in April, 2019.

5 Top Tips To Drive SEO & PPC Fusion
B2B Marketing, Enterprise SEO, Integrated Marketing, SEO
How can B2B marketers make the best use of marketing budgets in the face of economic challenges?
When it comes to online marketing, search engine optimization (SEO) and pay-per-click (PPC) advertising weigh in as two of the most important strategies in the playbook, with their combined one-two punch acting as the kind of force multiplier that B2B brands are increasingly seeking.
SEO is the fundamental fine-tuning process that helps websites ensure that their relevant content is findable by search engines, and can help a brand's information rank higher in the search engine results pages (SERPs), while PPC is the longstanding advertising method where companies pay for each click their ads receive.
When these two powerful yet decidedly different tactics are successfully combined, SEO and PPC form a cohesive tool for any business looking to make a bigger impact on its target audience.
