Since ancient times men have made numerous shelters for boats digging at the base of the cliff. These are caves of fishermen, a peculiarity of the area , the expression of a particular way of life at sea. They were dug by the farmers and fishermen who lived in the upper part of the cliff . It has continued to dig in the last 200 years, to occupy even the most straight stretches of the coast most exposed to waves. One of the oldest caves in the Passetto is the cave of Bevilacqua . It was dug by the grandfather of Ugo Bevilacqua, Mr. Luigi, towards the end of 1800 in the safe cove sheltered from the winds and storm surges. The cave was originally excavated in the rock with a pickaxe for about a length of 6.00 meters and a width of 3.50 meters. To protect the entrance from frequent rockfall from the cliff above , was coated to a certain depth with a barrel vault of brick, reinforced by an arch at the entrance with two heads. The floor has a slight slope to facilitate the descent of the boats at sea . The boats are made to slip on the greased wooden planks resting on the ground called ” planks “. In 1939 the cave was extended into the interior of approximately 4.50 meters using small explosive charges. From that time to now, the cave has not changed even in the tools and objects that have remained the same he used his father. Mr. Bevilacqua walked down to the cave using the old dirt road , on average, twice a day. [...]

I had part of a day to spend in Ancona, an Italian port city on the Adriatic Sea. Ancona does not appear in many guide books, perhaps because the authors think it has little touristic interest. Yet, right across the street from my hotel, I discovered an entrance to Parco del Cardeto, the largest urban reserve park in Ancona, officially opened in 2005. This 35-hectare park consists of the beach and cliffs along the Adriatic coast from Ancona’s port and old town section towards the south.
As you wander through the park, strategically-placed signage gives you hints about the human and natural history of the area. The cliffs consist of Miocene marl, 17 million year old sea shells mixed with clay and volcanic ash. And just like in our Rocky Mountains, the layering of the sediments exposes rock of varying permeability, causing plants to grow differentially.
The prevalence of wild thistle in the park has been a source of controversy. Silybum marianum grows wild and is a major food source for the goldfinch. As the thistles are replaced with short landscaped grasses, the abundance of the finch decreases, leading to a debate in how best to keep the park natural yet enjoyable. As a side note to this, the milk of this wild thistle was used in mediaeval times to deal with problems of the liver and urine retention. Amazingly, now the milk is of some pharmacological interest in the production of medications related to control of hypertension.
There is a great deal more of interest in this park. It was obvious to me that people have been accessing this beach long before it was a protected park. Caves dug over the centuries by fishermen are in still in use today. The plankton at the base of the marine food system leads to an abundance of harvest from the sea. I only had a couple of hours to explore this area, and would like to return.
"I’m at Schiphol airport right now, and about to leave for Italy! I’m taking a few days off for a quick visit to Ancona."
Ancona is a city and seaport in the Marche region of Italy. Ancona was founded by Greek settlers from Syracuse about 387 BC. When it became a Roman colony is doubtful. It was occupied as a naval station in the Illyrian War of 178 BC. Julius Caesar took possession of it immediately after crossing the Rubicon. Its harbour was of considerable importance in imperial times.

Nature in all her dazzling beauty: Stunning new landscape photos capture the breath-taking countryside of Le Marche Italian photographer Alessio Andreani captured beautiful shots of the European landscapes for a series of images The 25-year-old says he often had 'only a few seconds' to capture the shot he wanted as the sun rose or went down From the crisp, snow clad mountains to vivid bright blue seas, these breath-taking photographs capture the raw and arresting beauty of the natural landscape. With subjects ranging from the morning sunrise to the dazzling night sky, the images - all of which were taken in France and Italy - catch these calm and tranquil settings in all their glory. This picture, showing the Sibillini Mountains in Italy, was taken by photographer Alessio Andreani as part of a series of landscape shots taken throughout France and Italy The awe-inspiring shots, taken throughout 2012, also manage to display the changing colours of the mountains and lakes, from oranges to yellows and purples to blues. Mr Andreani, 25, who is from Italy, says he feels a 'strong link with the land where I live'. He added: 'The sun has a massive impact on how the photographs will turn out; it is like one big flame of light. 'Whilst photographing a lot of these images, I had only a few seconds to get the exact capture I needed, as the sun moves so quickly at sunrise.' The stunning photographs of greenery were taken in the town of Castelluccio di Norcia and in the hills near Recanati in Italy, showing the landscape off to its best advantage. Mr Andreani, who was born in Loreto, said: 'Taking these photographs of the vast countryside was very relaxing for me; I was able to just walk and enjoy the moment.' The images of the calm and eerie night sky were also taken in Italy in Mount Argentella and capture the Milky Way above the same town. Mr Andreani added: 'It was very quiet during the taking of these photographs, and because there was no moon, there were only the stars to light up the sky, making it seem so dark.' In stark contrast to the pictures taken at night are the shots showing the precise moments of sunrise, which were taken at various places including Monte Conero and Tellaro in Italy, and Cannes in France.

Roberto Mancini was born 27th November 1964 in the town of Jesi, of the Province of Ancona, in Le Marche Region. This small town in central Italy was the place which saw Roberto first fall in love with the beautiful game. As a boy, his only two interests were football and religion. He was a committed Roman Catholic, and as such honoured his faith by being an altar boy at his local place ofworship, the church of San Sebastian. His football club Aurora Calcio was next door, and a young Roberto Mancini was often found training or playing games there during the early seventies. His two passions once famously clashed when Roberto left midway through his First Holy Communion to join his teammates for their Sunday fixture. The initial reaction of his family was dismay, until the priest conducting affairs informed them it was he who instructed the young Mancini to get his boots, as his team was 2-0 down. These were the humble beginnings of a man who would go on to make over 500 appearances in Serie A, inspiring Sampdoria to domestic and European glory, something they hadn't achieved before, and haven't since. Bologna were the first to see Mancini's talent and signed him at the age offourteen. He was handed his debut at the age of sixteen in September of 1981. Mancini scored nine goals in thirty-one appearances for the Rossobù), although his first season proved to be his last. Sampdoria saw something special in the young forward and brought him to the Stadio Luigi Ferraris in the summer of1982. Little did they knowjust what great success he would bring with him....

Italy’s ISA Yachts has launched its first hybrid-powered ISA 140, now christened Silver Wind. ISA’s 43.63 tri-deck, planing-hull, composite-built motor yacht was ordered in June 2013. Her bold and sporty exterior styling come from Andrea Vallicelli while interior design is by design team Nuvolari Leonard. Silver Wind accommodates 10 guests in five staterooms. Notable outdoor living spaces include her spacious sun deck and spacious beach area and swim platform. The new ISA 140 features a hybrid propulsion developed by Siemens and ISA. This allows her to top out at 32 knots and cruise 26 under traditional propulsion, powered by twin diesel engines driving Rolls-Royce Kamewa waterjets through reduction gearboxes, while also being able to run at low speeds of eight knots with the main engines switched off. In addition to reducing engine and generator hours, thus postponing maintenance needs, this hybrid setup also reduces fuel consumption, gas emissions and noise levels. Superyacht Silver Wind is scheduled for a July 2014 delivery. She is for sale through Worth Avenue Yachts asking €21 million.
E’ Omero, colui che non vede ( dal greco o mè oròn), a dare il nome al museo statale tattile di Ancona, dal 2012 nella nuova sede all’interno della Mole Vanvitelliana, che ha la particolarità di essere stato ideato ed allestito per rendere l’arte accessibile a tutti, consentendo una “visione” tattile dell’arte agli ipovedenti e ai non vedenti. Il progetto, destinato nell’intenzione iniziale a superare un limite nella fruizione dell’arte da parte di alcuni, costituisce di fatto una grande opportunità per tutti di percepire le opere d’arte, di architettura e i reperti archeologici in modo multisensoriale.

Tra Jesi e Osimo nel 1943 un commando delle SS, mentre la guerra infuria, è inviato a trafugare un antico codice manoscritto di grande valore culturale e politico. Le vicende vedono da una parte una nobile famiglia jesina, che fa di tutto per nascondere il codice e sfuggire alla cattura e dall'altra tedeschi, frustrati ed infuriati che arrivano a devastare un palazzo rinascimentale pur di individuare la preziosa pergamena.
Questa in sintesi la storia della ricerca del Codex Aesinas, che contiene il testo della Germania di Tacito [...]
All'alba di lunedì 8 giugno 1914, l'Italia intera è attraversata dalla rivolta: per le strade delle principali città della penisola infuriano scontri violenti tra forza pubblica e scioperanti. Un profondo disagio economico e sociale esaspera i disordini, alla vigilia della Prima guerra mondiale, in una vera e propria insurrezione antimonarchica e antimilitarista, che mette in luce le debolezze del governo e della corona sabauda. L'episodio costituisce uno dei primi esempi delle grandi proteste pacifiste che si susseguiranno nel Novecento, ma anche una preoccupante esacerbazione dei conflitti sociali che prelude alle crisi del primo dopoguerra. La scintilla scoppia ad Ancona, città portuale già particolarmente "calda" durante altri episodi di sollevazione, dove in occasione del 7 giugno, festa dello Statuto Albertino, ha luogo una manifestazione di protesta opposta alla parata ufficiale. Dopo la morte di tre dimostranti, la protesta esplode in un'aperta rivolta generale: dalla città occupata, l'insurrezione si estende a macchia d'olio, attraversa dalle Marche tutta la Romagna e si accendono focolai in tutti i più importanti centri italiani. Dopo giorni di combattimenti e barricate, con l'intervento dell'esercito il 10 giugno 1914 la Confederazione Generale del Lavoro revoca lo sciopero ed il 13 giugno la rivolta è cessata. [...]

Dove oggi c'è il Duomo di San Ciriaco, in passato, era eretto il Tempio ad Afrodite, protettrice dei naviganti (III sec a.c.) e successivamente la Chiesa di San Lorenzo (VI sec d.c.). La struttura attuale risale al XI-XIII sec d.c.. Nei pressi del Duomo è da visitare anche il Museo Diocesano, dove sono raccolti interessanti opere di arte sacra. Dal Duomo, vicino alla casa dietro alla torre campanaria, scendiamo le scalette verso Piazza del Senato. Durante la discesa salta subito all'occhio la cupola in rame della Chiesa dei SS. Pellegrino e Filippo Neri del XVIII, nata nei pressi dell'area dove sorgeva l'antica Chiesa di San Salvatore. Sulla piazza notiamo subito un palazzo con un arcata alta e stretta nella parte destra e delle eleganti bifore adorne di cornici scolpite; è il Palazzo del Senato (XIII sec.), la più antica sede del Comune. Scendendo, ora, via Ferretti fino a Piazza Stracca incontriamo sulla destra il Museo Archeologico Nazionale delle Marche, che raccoglie, tra gli altri, la collezione di resti della civiltà dei Piceni più grande al mondo. A piazza Stracca troviamo la Chiesa del Gesù (del 1665) e il Palazzo degli Anziani che, dal 1270, ha subito varie trasformazioni e utlizzi negli anni (Comune, Pinacoteca civica, Facoltà di Economia...). Prendete ora le scalette al lato del Palazzo, e scendete fino alla strada (lungomare Vanvitelli). Percorrete ora tutto la via dirigendovi verso Piazza della Repubblica dove troverete il nuovissimo Teatro delle Muse (distrutto durante l'ultima guerra). Nel percorrere questa via non dimenticate di visitare, sulla sinistra, Santa Maria della Piazza (XIII sec.) unica nel suo genere e, sulla destra, la Loggia dei Mercanti (XV sec.) con la facciata in stile gotico fiorito veneziano. Sull'altro lato della Piazza della Repubblica troviamo la Chiesa del SS. Sacramento (1538) con il suo particolare campanile con la cuspide a chiocciola ispirato alla famosa cupola del Borromini realizzata nella Chiesa di Sant'Ivo alla Sapienza a Roma. Nel risalire verso Piazza del Senato, anziché percorrere la strada già fatta, prendete via Pizzecolli così da incontrare alla vostra destra prima Piazza del Plebiscito (o del Papa) e poi la Chiesa di San Francesco alle Scale, con il portale gotico-veneziano del 1454. Piazza del Papa la sera si anima; i numerosi locali aperti sono meta di molti giovani che amano stare in compagnia anche ascoltando buona musica. Qui nei pressi della statua del Papa, è collocato il Museo della Città per chi volesse approfondire la storia di Ancona. Da Piazza del Senato, prima di ritornare alla vostra auto, vi consiglio di fare una piccola deviazione percorrendo per intero via Pio II. Alla fine della via potrete ammirare i resti dell'antico Anfiteatro Romano (I sec. d.C.) tutt'ora in fase di scavo, collocato tra il Colle Guasco e quello dei Cappuccini (zona Vecchio Faro)...

Visiting Ancona for the appealing historic town on the hill, the art gallery (Pinacoteca Comunale), the National Archeological Museum, you need to cool down and have back some good energies with something tasty, so nothing is better than a handcrafeted ice cream. There are in Ancona few shops that deserve to be mentioned for the quality and creativity of the ice cream flavours they offer. Among those ones deserving a sure mention there is the “Cremeria Rosa”... www.cremeriarosa.com
When we use to talk about Ancona and its Province, it comes immediately up to our mind identifying with them one of the most famous products: the “Verdicchio”. It is a vine exclusively cultivated in Marche Region, with white berry and suitable for the production of fresh wines with a remarkable longevity; it can be used also for as classic as Charmat method sparkling white wines. The name Verdicchio comes for sure from its greenish coloured grape, also after its maturation. It seems that its origins go even back to the XVI century. The Verdicchio had a great characterization thanks to the architect Maiocchi. In fact, over ’50 years period the architect drew an amphor shaped bottle in order to enhance the wine quality and the sinuosity of Marche Region landscape morphology. The colour of Verdicchio is straw-yellow, and, accordingly to its maturation, it can vary on shades that go from greenish to golden. The alcoholic gradation goes from 11.5° to 12.5°C. It is important to store it at about 10°/12° C; when you serve it as aperitif, please keep the bottle at 8°/10° C...
