Neste episódio do podcast Farol Conexões da Informação, a professora Olívia Nery, ela destaca a relação intrínseca entre o Patrimônio Industrial e a memória do trabalho, surgindo nos anos 60/70 com a desindustrialização. São abordados os desafios da preservação de espaços industriais ("elefantes brancos"), a importância da contextualização histórica e a requalificação urbana sem perda da autenticidade. O episódio menciona os principais polos industriais do Rio Grande do Sul (Rio Grande e Pelotas, Porto Alegre e região metropolitana/Serra), incluindo cidades como São Leopoldo, Caxias do Sul, Viamão e Santa Maria. A professora Olívia também discute o papel da educação patrimonial na ressignificação da importância dos trabalhadores e as lacunas existentes em pesquisas sobre o tema, especialmente no Rio Grande do Sul, com foco na formação da classe trabalhadora.Imagem da capa: abrigo dos bondes de Rio Grande.

O elevador da Glória, um dos símbolos históricos de Lisboa, descarrilou esta quarta-feira provocando 15 mortos e 18 feridos, cinco deles em estado grave, num acidente que ocorreu ao fim da tarde na Calçada da Glória e que mobilizou dezenas de operacionais de emergência que trabalharam durante horas no local para estabilizar a situação e transportar as vítimas para vários hospitais da cidade, incluindo o Hospital de Santa Maria que já confirmou ter recebido dois dos feridos mais graves e que poderá receber mais nas próximas horas, numa operação complexa que envolveu INEM, bombeiros e forças de segurança. Ouça aqui a primeira parte do Jornal da Noite da SIC, conduzido por Clara de Sousa, emitida entre as 19h50 e as 21h10. O responsável da UPPEC do INEM, Tiago Augusto, confirmou o número de mortos às 20h30, enquanto o presidente da Câmara de Lisboa, Carlos Moedas, declarou que Lisboa está de luto e preferiu não comentar questões relacionadas com a segurança do equipamento, sublinhando apenas que há muitas vítimas em estado grave. A diretora da Proteção Civil, Margarida Castro Martins, indicou que as primeiras investigações apontam para possíveis problemas nos cabos e no sistema de funcionamento do funicular, que opera de forma compensada, e que essa poderá ter sido a causa do descarrilamento.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

O elevador da Glória, um dos símbolos históricos de Lisboa, descarrilou esta quarta-feira provocando 15 mortos e 18 feridos, cinco em estado grave, num acidente que mobilizou dezenas de operacionais ao fim da tarde na Calçada da Glória e obrigou ao transporte das vítimas para vários hospitais da cidade, incluindo o de Santa Maria. Ouça aqui a terceira parte do Jornal da Noite da SIC, conduzido por Clara de Sousa, emitida entre as 21h35 e as 21h55. A Carris ativou de imediato os meios de emergência e está no local a colaborar com forças de segurança, frisando que a prioridade é apoiar todos os envolvidos. O GPIAAF vai investigar o descarrilamento mas só recolherá evidências no dia seguinte devido à falta de investigadores na área ferroviária. O elevador da Glória, que liga os Restauradores ao Jardim de São Pedro de Alcântara num percurso de 265 metros e é muito procurado por turistas, transformou-se em cenário de tragédia que deixou Lisboa em choque. A cidade está mergulhada num clima de luto e espera respostas rápidas sobre as causas do acidente para restaurar a confiança neste ícone histórico.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Balaguer ha finalitzat aquesta setmana les activitats d’estiu dels cicles de concerts del Música & Tapes i del Cicle de Monòlegs. Des de l’Àrea de Joventut i de l’Àrea de Fires i Festes fan una valoració molt positiva pel gran nombre d’espectadors en totes les sessions. Pel que fa a una altra de les propostes d’estiu, el programa d’activitats d’Esport i Salut, impulsat per l’Àrea d’Esports de la Paeria de Balaguer i orientat a la promoció dels hàbits saludables i la pràctica regular d’activitat física, va finalitzar el 15 d’agost amb una participació més que notòria en totes i cadascuna de les disciplines proposades. La paera en cap de Balaguer, Lorena González, també ha fet una valoració molt positiva de la resposta de públic en totes aquestes activitats durant els mesos d’estiu i l’època de vacances. Per González “aquests serveis són accessibles per a tothom i demostren que Balaguer continua actiu durant l’estiu”. La inflació es manté estable a l’agost i continua en el 2,7% a l’Estat, segons l’indicador avançat. L’IPC subjacent repunta una dècima, fins al 2,4% Les hipoteques sobre habitatges es disparen un 32,2% anual i registren el millor juny dels últims 15 anys. El sindicat UGT denuncia que el “rècord” d’hipoteques “no reflecteix la realitat” de l’accés a l’habitatge. El sindicat remarca que accedir a un immoble “continua sent inassolible per a la majoria” La reserva natural de Mas de Melons, a les Garrigues, acull més d’un centenar d’espècies d’abelles diferents.

Mergulhamos na fascinante história da pirataria e da predação marítima entre os séculos XVI e XIX, explorando as diferenças entre os oceanos Atlântico e Índico! Neste SciCast, desvendamos o que define pirataria, passamos por figuras que moldaram o comércio colonial, desafiaram impérios e serviram de material para histórias, mitos e lendas. No Atlântico, a Era de Ouro da pirataria, marcada por nomes como Barba Negra e Anne Bonny, foi impulsionada pelo lucrativo mercado do açúcar e pelo tráfico de escravizados. No Índico, senhores do mar como Ching Shih e os Marakkars dominavam rotas comerciais com estratégias únicas, aproveitando as monções. Da origem do Jolly Roger às raízes da pirataria nas talassocracias antigas, descubra como esses rebeldes dos mares conectaram continentes e inspiram até hoje a cultura pop, de Jack Sparrow a One Piece.

Valente Cuambe é um dos rostos da investigação em Santa Maria, nos Açores. Natural de Moçambique, chegou à ilha há quase quatro anos, integrado no projecto RAEGE - Rede Atlântica de Estações Geodinâmicas e Espaciais. O astrofísico coordena a investigação em rádio-astronomia e a geodesia espacial, área que mede o movimento das placas tectónicas e fornece sistemas de referência essenciais para tecnologias como o GPS. A escolha de Santa Maria não foi por acaso: “A ilha tem o privilégio de ter estes equipamentos que acredito serem únicos em Portugal Continental. E eu tenho a sorte de fazer parte do grupo de investigadores que explora esta área da ciência aqui.” A estação integra uma rede internacional, com antenas espalhadas pela Europa, Estados Unidos, Ásia, Austrália e África do Sul. O objectivo é medir com elevada precisão o afastamento e o movimento das placas tectónicas. “Aqui há uma junção tripla de placas tectónicas. Colocando antenas em diferentes placas, conseguimos estudar o afastamento ou o ajuntamento delas. Usamos uma técnica chamada de linha de base muito longa, que permite correlacionar sinais recebidos por antenas distantes ao observar fontes extragalácticas.” A informação recolhida é fundamental. “Usamos isto como sistemas de referência. Precisamos de pontos fixos para medir distâncias. É a base do funcionamento do GPS. Nós fornecemos essas referências internacionais para que os sistemas consigam medir correctamente.” Além da geodesia, a estação em Santa Maria tem vindo a provar o seu valor na rádio-astronomia. A antena de 13 metros mede radiação entre os 12 e os 14 gigahertz e permite observar buracos negros supermassivos e regiões de formação de estrelas. “Recentemente submetemos o nosso primeiro artigo para publicação. Queremos provar à comunidade científica que estes equipamentos também servem para fazer rádio-astronomia olhando para o espaço, para além da geodesia espacial”, salientou. Questionado sobre um possível regresso a Moçambique, o investigador é claro: “não está em cima da mesa, não só porque Moçambique não tem esse tipo de capacidade, como também os Açores precisam de potenciar a investigação. Santa Maria é privilegiada por contemplar estes equipamentos.”

Preghiera per la Pace. Meditazione di Don Riccardo Mensuali sul libro della Genesi (Gen 18, 17-33)La Comunità di Sant'Egidio accoglie l'invito rivolto da papa Leone ad una giornata di digiuno e preghiera per la pace."Mentre la nostra terra continua ad essere ferita da guerre in Terra Santa, in Ucraina e in molte altre regioni del mondo - ha detto il papa nell'udienza del 20 agosto - , invito tutti i fedeli a vivere la giornata del 22 agosto in digiuno e in preghiera, supplicando il Signore che ci conceda pace e giustizia e che asciughi le lacrime di coloro che soffrono a causa dei conflitti armati in corso. Maria, Regina della pace, interceda perché i popoli trovino la via della pace».In unità con il Santo Padre e nella speranza che i tanti conflitti che insanguinano il mondo trovino fine, nella basilica di Santa Maria in Trastevere e in tutte le Comunità di Sant'Egidio ovunque nel mondo, la preghiera della sera sarà dedicata alla pace e alla memoria di tutti i paesi che soffrono per la violenza e la violenza.#santegidio #pace #digiuno #leonexiv

It's Tuesday, August 12th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson 4 of 5 most populated countries hostile to Christianity International Christian Concern reports that now “four of the five most populous countries in the world share a disturbing reality: Christians are systematically and harshly persecuted within their borders.” And we would add that these four nations have stepped up persecution against Christians over the last ten years. The four countries are China with a population of 1.41 billion people, India with a population of 1.46 billion people, Indonesia with a population of 285 million people, and Pakistan with a population of 255 million people. By contrast, the United States, with a population of 347 million people, is the other top 5 most populated country which actually allows for religious freedoms. Russia won't comply with 1987 moratorium on nuclear missiles Last week, Russia announced it will no longer comply with the 1987 moratorium on deployment of nuclear-capable intermediate range missiles. These missiles are designed to bring total annihilation to European cities. This opens the way for nuclear-capable launch vehicles to be deployed proximate to theaters of military operation. China doubled nuclear warheads China began its nuclear buildup in 2018—increasing its nuclear firepower from 280 to 600 warheads, and adding 350 new Intercontinental ballistic missile silos this year. This buildup took place at the same time France and the United Kingdom reduced their nuclear arsenals. 80th anniversary since U.S. dropped atomic bombs in Japan This month marks the 80th anniversary since the US dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan. The city of Hiroshima marked the anniversary with a memorial event. The city's mayor, Shiro Suzuki, addressed the gathering, as one whose parents survived the 1945 attack. Suzuki said, ”Conflicts around the world are intensifying in a vicious cycle of confrontation and fragmentation . . . and if we continue on this trajectory, we will end up thrusting ourselves into a nuclear war. This existential crisis of humanity has become imminent to each and every one of us living on Earth." Youth unemployment up worldwide The BBC reports some Chinese college graduates are actually paying for a pretend job. The outlet mentions a business called “Pretend to Work Company."   With real jobs increasingly hard to come by, some young adults would rather pay to go into an office rather than to be stuck at home. This year, China's youth unemployment rate has scraped 17 percent. Canada has seen a sharp increase of youth unemployment—now at 14.2 percent. Italy's rate is upwards of 22 percent, and the United Kingdom has seen more increases of youth unemployment what they call “youth economic inactivity” in recent years—now at 13.4 percent. But youth unemployment in South Africa is the highest at 61 percent. The Apostle Paul exhorts the youth and all of us that "If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat. For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies. Now those who are such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ that they work in quietness and eat their own bread." (2 Thessalonians 3:10-12) World Vision justified in denying employment to a lesbian The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled  that the Christian ministry, World Vision, was well within the law when they denied employment to a lesbian named Aubry McMahon who was in a sinful relationship with a woman she called her “wife.” The court held that the ministry had not violated federal or Washington state non-discrimination laws because it was covered under the “ministerial exception.”  Abortion Kill Pill has enabled abortion rate to increase despite Dobbs Americans are killing significantly more babies following the U.S. Supreme Court reversal of Roe v. Wade through the Dobbs decision on June 24, 2022. Official records put the annual number at 1.1 million, up from 880,000 in 2020. That's a 25 percent increase. The difference appears to be made up by the abortion kill pill by mail program. About 63 percent of the murder of babies is executed by the abortion pill now, and 25 percent of all abortions come by “Telehealth” or by mail. Twenty-two leading Southern Baptist pastors have issued a letter to President Donald Trump, requesting that the administration “stop the mail-order distribution of the abortion drug mifepristone.” To this point, the Trump administration has been reticent to limit access to the abortion kill pill. In May, the U.S. Justice Department recommended tossing out a lawsuit that would have restricted a reduction of access to Telehealth abortions. In an interview with interview with Time Magazine in December, the president reiterated five times, that it was "highly unlikely” the Food and Drug Administration would do anything to restrict access to the Abortion Kill Pill.  However, God is in control. Jeremiah 51:19, 20, and 24 reminds us "He is the Maker of all things;  and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance. The Lord of hosts is His name. You are My battle-ax and weapons of war: For with you, I will break the nation in pieces, says the Lord." California fire has burned 120,000 acres The State of California is dealing with more out-of-control fires. The Gifford Fire started up last Wednesday, and has already consumed some 120,000 acres. It's now threatening the towns of Arroyo Grande and Santa Maria. Sadly, it's only 30 percent contained.  Grand Canyon fire has burned 144,000 acres The Dragon Bravo fire in Arizona has shut down the Grand Canyon North Rim for the season.   This fire has burned up 144,000 acres. In God's all powerful workings, this fire began by lightning strike on Independence Day, July 4th. Despite tariff revenues, 2025 U.S. deficit is $109 million higher than 2024 And finally, despite the Department of Government Efficiency, the tariff hullabaloo, and the influx of import taxes to the federal government coffers, this year's deficit, through July, is a whopping $109 billion more than it was last year. The deficit totaled $1.6 trillion over the first 10 months of fiscal year 2025—heading towards a $1.9 trillion deficit for the year. That's about eight times the average deficit incurred under the George W. Bush administration.

Barbecue is a hot topic, steeped in tradition and regional pride. Some swear by Kansas City's sweet sauce, while others prefer North Carolina's vinegar bite. Brisket purists say salt is all you need, while Santa Maria loyalists stand by dry-rubbed tri-tip over red oak. No matter the style, opinions run hotter than the grill. But despite the debate, exploring different styles is part of the fun. As grill season kicks off, this summer is the perfect time to try new recipes that celebrate the full range of American barbecue.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Send us a textThe Court of Lorenzo the Magnificent Part 6 of 6: Architecture This episode looks at the most significant works of Lorenzo's court architect and dear friend, Giuliano da Sangallo. Among his most important designs, Sangallo was the chief architect and designer behind the Medici Villa at Poggio a Caiano, a countryside escape for Lorenzo that would serve as a prototype for Renaissance villas that came after. Additionally, Lorenzo and Sangallo were involved in the design and creation of the splendid church of Santa Maria delle Carceri in Prato. Overall, this podcast addresses the way Sangallo served as Lorenzo's chief architect, as well as the way in which he remains an essential figure in understanding Renaissance architecture as a whole. Sangallo was a dedicated follower of Filippo Brunelleschi and Leon Battista Alberti, as well as an expert on the rules of classical architecture. Works Discussed: Giuliano da Sangallo, Medici Villa at Poggio a Caiano, begun 1485. http://www.museumsinflorence.com/musei/villa-poggio-a-caiano.htmlGiuliano da Sangallo, Santa Maria delle Carceri, Prato, 1495. https://www.cittadiprato.it/en/Sezioni/content.aspx?XRI=186Support/Watch/Follow: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastGet additional content by becoming a Patron: patreon.com/TheItalianRenaissancePodcast Support the show

God's Existence: Deeper Thoughts for Greater Insights by Gary R. Lindberg Amazon.com Garyrlindberg.com Does evolution contradict the Bible, or is it another tool God used for Creation? Why was the Old Testament written? What should Genesis tell us about creation? How should we look at certain issues raised in Genesis such as Adam and Eve, missing people, descendants of Adam, and even the Great Flood? We want to evaluate whether or not Moses was real, and whether or not the Exodus really happened. When did the alleged Exodus actually occur? We seek answers to these and other questions to get a better understanding of those events so long ago. The answers may be shocking, surprising, or different than what we were told. A profound book that is "on fire" to discover new truths to age-old questions.About the author Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the author's parents moved just before his seventh birthday to Santa Maria, California. There he grew up and attended grade schools up through high school. The author is a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley with a degree in U. S. History. Then he volunteered to join the Peace Corps for two and a half years during which he taught primary school students and teachers various techniques in a trial school gardens program in the Ivory Coast which is located in West Africa between Liberia and Ghana. He became fluent in French during that time. After his Peace Corps service, he toured Europe and visited primarily Italy, Germany (including East Berlin then under Communist control), France, England, and the Netherlands. Since he was drafted, he volunteered for the Navy in which he served for four years. Next, he went to San Francisco State University where he earned his Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree with a concentration in Management and Personnel. After that he began his 43-year career as a Human Resources professional for a number of major companies including National Gypsum, Celotex, McCormick (spices), Del Monte, Quebecor Printing, and Micro Lithography, Inc. He retired in November, 2019 to pursue personal endeavors.
