# Philippine–Japanese–Indonesian bid for the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup

The joint **Philippine–Japanese–Indonesian bid for the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup** was the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas, Japan Basketball Association, and the Indonesian Basketball Association's successful bid for the right to host the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup.

The campaign was led by the Philippines where most of the proposed venues are situated. The bid was one of the two finalist bids, along with the joint Argentina–Uruguay bid.

## Background

### Bid Development

#### Philippine-led initiatives

Following the failed bid to China, the Philippines as early as January 2016 expressed interest to make a joint bid for the 2023 FIBA World Cup with another country. The Philippines considered to make a joint bid with Malaysia, Singapore or South Korea.

#### Indonesia as co-bidding country

The bid was initially submitted as a joint bid by two countries; Philippines and Indonesia. It was submitted to FIBA on January 28, 2017 with the group stage proposed to be held in both countries and the Philippines solely host the final knockout phase.

#### Japan joins the co-bidding

The President of the Philippine Basketball Federation (SBP) Al Panlilio announced on February 6, 2017 that Japan was invited to join the Philippine-Indonesian bid. After the FIBA Board Meeting in May 2017 several media reported that Japan has joined the Philippine-Indonesian bid. Japan's participation in the bid was proposed by FIBA

According to media reports Manila will be host to four Preliminary Round Groups, two Second Round Groups and the Final tournament phase from Quarterfinals onwards. As well Okinawa and Jakarta will each be host to two Preliminary Round Groups and one Second Round Group.

#### Singapore

There were plans to have Singapore as the fourth co-bidding country in the joint bid. On May 25, 2017 SBP officials had a dialog with their counterparts from the Basketball Association of Singapore (BAS) about joining the bid. If Singapore joined the each venue would have stage two Preliminary Round Groups and one Second Round Group.

### Bid rationale and theme

The bid focused on the passion for the game especially by fans from the primary hosting country, the Philippines, and the Consortium appealed to FIBA goal in growing the sport of basketball, with a combined population base of 500 million people. The bid revolved on the mottos "The Power of Three" and "Play Louder than Ever". Future infrastructure plans were also discussed during the bid presentation.

## Proposed venues

Six venues from six host cities were proposed for the bid.

## Bid evaluation and review

### Philippines

From October 21-22, 2017, a three-man evaluation commission consisting of FIBA Central Board Members Hamane Niang of Mali and Ingo Weiss of Germany, and FIBA Senior Consultant Lubomir Kotleba of Slovakia came to the Philippines having already evaluated the Russian and Argentina-Uruguay bids. The Philippine government through Foreign Affairs Secretary Alan Peter Cayetano and President Rodrigo Duterte assured the commission of its support in a 19 October meeting at the Manila Hotel.

A bid presentation was held on October 21 at the Conrad Manila hotel in Pasay, Metro Manila. The bid which has the official slogan of "Play Louder Than Ever", was presented to the visiting FIBA commission.

Among those who spoke during the bid presentation are SBP Chairman emeritus Manny Pangilinan, SBP President Al Panlilio, and Foreign Affairs Secretary Cayetano. Consortium partners were also present during the bid presentation, with Japan Basketball Association Secretary-General Hirota Matsuhiro and Indonesian Basketball Association President Danny Kosasih, coming in with a staff of three.

### Japan

When FIBA officials made evaluations in Okinawa, Japan, they were presented blueprints and animated sketches of Okinawa Arena, the proposed Japanese venue for the FIBA Basketball World Cup which was then in the planning stages. It is planned to be ready for the 2020 Summer Olympics.

## Bid presentation

The final bid presentation was made in Mies, Switzerland with the host countries of the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup announced on the same day. The joint Philippine-Japanese-Indonesian bid was favored by FIBA over Argentina and Uruguay's. However the two South American countries are given the chance to bid for the 2027 FIBA Basketball World Cup unopposed. They are to revise their bid according to FIBA's recommendations and represent their bid in June 2018. However Argentina and Uruguay decided to withdraw the bid for the 2027 edition.

# Lansing B. Mizner

**Lansing Bond Mizner** (December 5, 1825 – December 9, 1893) was an American lawyer, diplomat, and politician. Mizner served as President of the California Senate and was US Minister (ambassador) to Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua.

## Early life

Lansing B. Mizner was born on December 5, 1825, in Monroe County, Illinois, son of Henry Caldwell Mizner, who died when Lansing was 4 years old. His stepfather, James Semple, was fluent in the Spanish language and was appointed Chargé d'affaires to the Republic of New Granada (present-day Colombia and Panama, and pieces of neighboring countries). The family lived in Bogotá, Colombia for five years (1837—1842), during which Lansing also became fluent in Spanish. He studied at Shurtleff College.

## Career

He arrived in California by way of New Orleans and Panama May 20, 1843 (not 1849), settled at Benicia, and became a partner in the general merchandise company of Semple, Robinson & Co. He was admitted to the bar the same year. At the age of 22 he joined the United States Army, and served in the Mexican War on the staff of General Shields. He was a member of the Society of California Pioneers. His adult home was in Benicia, California,

He served as the first Collector of Customs for the Northern District of California (San Francisco to the Oregon border). When the state government was formed in 1849, he was elected the Associate Justice of the Solano County Court of Sessions. He was elected as a California State Senator in the 1865 and 1867 California Senates, and served as Chairman of the Commerce and Navigation and the Swamp Land Committees, and eventually President. Afterwards, he worked for Benjamin Harrison's 1888 presidential campaign.

## Minister to Central America

During the administration of President Benjamin Harrison, Mizner was appointed in 1889 Minister to Central America, in essence the ambassador to Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala (where he was based), Honduras, and Nicaragua (Panama at that time was part of Colombia). He was fluent in Spanish. When he traveled to Guatemala to begin his duties he was accompanied by his sons, the future architect Addison Mizner and future playwright Wilson Mizner. He lasted in the job slightly more than a year.

Mizner's first rebuke, from an Acting Secretary of State, was for calling for a union of the five Central American republics for protection from the more powerful Mexico to the north and Colombia to the south (Mexico and Colombia had both protested). There was a complicated incident in which American arms were being shipped to El Salvador (which had just had a *coup d'état*), and Guatemala, having martial law, objected. In July 1890, exiled Guatemalan General Juan Martín Barrundia was on an American ship scheduled to stop at Guatemalan ports. Mizner, unable to communicate with Washington, agreed to the Guatemalan government's request he be seized. Resisting arrest, Barrundia was killed on this American ship by a bullet from one of the Guatemalan policemen who boarded the American ship. This was too much for the US government, and he was terminated in November 1890, by Secretary of State James G. Blaine. President Benjamin Harrison justified Mizner's dismissal in his 1890 Annual Message. State Department papers also detail the incident. Barrundia left a widow and several daughters, one of whom visited Mizner's office before his departure and shot at him. Barrundia's widow Transito Hurtarte appealed to the Department of State for damages, which the US government refused to grant.

## Family

He built a house in Benicia and kept a small farm on what is now East L St. near First St. (where the Benicia Public Library is currently). He installed the first flush toilet in Benicia, which the children would show off to their friends. His wife was Ella Watson Mizner. He had seven children, one daughter Minnie, married to Horace Blanchard Chase, who later would found Stag's Leap Winery, and six boys: William, Lansing, Edgar, the architect Addison, Harvey, and Wilson. He died aged 68, of heart disease, at the residence of his daughter, at Yountville, in Napa County.

# Walk on Air

"**Walk on Air**" is a song by British band T'Pau, which was released in 1991 as the second single from their third studio album *The Promise*. It was written by Carol Decker and Ron Rogers, and produced by Andy Richards. "Walk on Air" reached No. 62 on the UK Singles Chart and remained in the charts for two weeks.

A music video was filmed to promote the single. The 7" single's B-side, a live version of "Hold on to Love", was exclusive to the single and described as a previously unreleased alternate "unplugged"-style recording of the track from *The Promise*. The 12" and CD formats featured the additional track "Dirty Town", a non-LP song that would re-appear as B-side to the band's next single "Soul Destruction".

## Background

Decker was inspired to write the lyrics of "Walk on Air" after a friend's boyfriend was killed in a motorcycle accident. She revealed of the song's message in 2019, "You never know what is going to happen to you. You just never know. Life can turn on a sixpence."

## Critical reception

On its release, Terry Staunton of *New Musical Express* commented, "'Walk on Air' sounds not unlike John Waite's 'Missing You', which is fine by me." He added that T'Pau are "no-nonsense pomp rockers who know what they want to do and do it very well". Andrew Hirst of the *Huddersfield Daily Examiner* picked the song as the newspaper's "single of the week" and praised it as a "fine bout of chartbound chugging melodic rock". Jan Rowe of the *Hull Daily Mail* awarded the single a two star rating and called it an "undemanding yet catchy single \[which\] is a typical example of T'Pau's music". She continued, "Lilting and atmospheric, it chunters away in the background with its standard love lyrics and smoochy sound. Pleasant but not worth buying a new stylus for."

# Weimar (Lahn)

**Weimar** is a municipality in the south of Marburg-Biedenkopf district in Gießen administrative region, Hesse, Germany. The municipality's administrative seat is the centre of Niederweimar.

## Geography

The municipal area stretches south from Marburg in the Lahn valley and west with the Allna valley on into the Gladenbach Highland and comprises an area of about 47 km². Other than Marburg, the community also borders on Ebsdorfergrund to the east, on Fronhausen to the south, on Lohra to the southwest, and in the far west on the town of Gladenbach.

## History

The name *Weimar* is believed to come from the Old Germanic word **wih** (holy, sanctified) and the Old High German word **mar** (lake, swamp or moor) put together.

Allna had its first documentary mention as early as 807 and is thereby the earliest named centre in the community. Alongside this, however, Kehna, Oberweimar and Niederweimar, simply from their names, are said to be the oldest centres in the municipal area. The founding of the *Martinskirche* (church) in Oberweimar is assumed to have happened before Saint Boniface's time, namely about 600, in the time when Irish-Scottish monks were undertaking missionary work in the area.

Over the last few years, as the gravel quarry at Niederweimar has been expanded, great Neolithic settlements have been found, which have since been kept in protective pits.

### Earlier divisions

Before the current community was founded, the places within it belonged to court regions (*Gerichtsbezirke*) which also had administrative functions. Allna, Oberweimar, Weiershausen, Kehna, Nesselbrunn, Niederwalgern and Wolfshausen belonged to the *Gericht Reizberg*. The Reizberg court itself was built on a mountain lying near Oberweimar. Argenstein, Wenkbach and Roth were grouped into the *Gericht Schenkisch Eigen* of the *Schenken* (≈stewards) of Schweinsberg. Stedebach was under the Teutonic Knights' ownership while Niederweimar was a landgrave's personal court region (*Eigengericht*).

### Greater Weimar community

At its founding on 1 January 1971, the community of Weimar consisted of Allna (half-timbered church), Niederweimar (Weimar Lake) and Oberweimar (Evangelical church). On 1 July 1972, after much drawn-out procedural business, Roth (renovated synagogue), Weiershausen and Wenkbach (Evangelical *Wehrkirche* – a church built to look like a fort – and Catholic church) joined the community. As a result of Hesse's municipal reforms on 1 July 1974, the community was enlarged by having Argenstein (mill), Kehna (court ensemble), Nesselbrunn, Niederwalgern (*Wehrkirche*), Stedebach and Wolfshausen added to it.

## Politics

### Municipal council

The local elections on 6 March 2016 and formerly on 27 March 2011 yielded the following results:

| Parties and voting blocks | | %

| Total | | 100 | 23 | 100 | 31 | 100 | 31 |
| Turnout in % | | 54.03 | | 56.4 | | 55.5 | |

### Mayor

The mayor of the town of Weimar (Lahn) since 2010 has been Peter Eidam (Independent). Volker Muth (SPD) was mayor from 2004 to 2010. He was followed by Karl Krantz (CDU), who had held the position since the founding of the municipality.

### Coat of arms

The community's coat of arms might be described thus: Party per pale gules and argent, a rose counterchanged. The arms were bestowed on Weimar twice, on 25 January 1971 and again on 2 July 1975. The rose was chosen to stand for the community's flourishing.

### Community partnerships

## Culture and sightseeing

### Buildings

Among other buildings in the community worth seeing are the "fortress church" in Wenkbach and churches in Niederweimar, Niederwalgern, Allna and Roth. The watermill in Argenstein and the synagogue in Roth are also worth a visit, as are the half-timbered houses to be found in some centres.

### Music

Various clubs in the constituent communities offer a range of different kinds of music. As well as several singing clubs and choirs, there are all kinds of music clubs in Weimar, even a trombone choir and the Wenkbach civic and cultural club's orchestra.

### Sport

The community's biggest sport clubs are the SG Niederwalgern/Wenkbach, the SC Roth/Argenstein and the TSV Niederweimar. In football, the clubs from Niederwalgern, Wenkbach, Roth and Argenstein form an association and compete as *FSG Südkreis*. The TSV (*Turn- und Sportverein*, that is, gymnastic and sport club) Niederweimar has its own team. Other sports have clubs, too: tennis is offered, for example, at SG Niederwalgern/Wenkbach as well as at TV Weimar in Wolfshausen. Table tennis can be played in, among other places, in Wenkbach in the department specially set up for it at the civic and cultural club.

## Economy and infrastructure

### Economy

The community's biggest industrial park is found in the southern end of Wenkbach. The firms YKK and Pauly are located there. Scattered throughout the other centres are further businesses, mostly small and in handicrafts.

### Transport

Through the community run two Federal Highways, Bundesstraße 3 from Marburg to Gießen, which has still not been built into a four-lane highway, and Bundesstraße 255 going towards Gladenbach and Herborn. Niederwalgern station and Niederweimar station are stops on the Main-Weser Railway between Kassel and Frankfurt am Main at which stop regional and regional express trains (the latter only in Niederwalgern). Various buslines join the community's several centres together and to neighbouring communities.

### Leisure

Smaller facilities such as playgrounds can be found in most of the constituent communities, but the only facility well known outside the region is the *Seepark* ("lake park"), offering a lake with swimming and a recreational area.

# Waino Kauppi

**Waino Kauppi** (1898 – November 25, 1932) was a musician who played both the cornet and the trumpet. Known as the "Boy Wonder", at age 12 Kauppi was one of the first triple-tonguing cornetists. He played as a cornet soloist for bands like the Edwin McEnelly Orchestra, the Goldman Band and, his own, Waino Kauppi Suomi Orkesteri. He had numerous records to his credit.

## Early days

Waino Kauppi was born in 1898 and was an immigrant from Finland. He grew up in Maynard, Massachusetts, a factory town with a large Finnish immigrant population. He was a child prodigy and, by the age of 12, he became one of the first triple-tonguing cornetists. By 14, he was touring with bands such as Teel's Band of Boston.

## Career

### 1924–1926: The Goldman Band

The Goldman Band was a military-style band organized by Edwin Franko Goldman. Goldman recruited "the best wind players available in New York" including Waino Kauppi who went on to play as a cornet soloist. Kauppi's solos gained exposure after being broadcast by WEAF at the Goldman Band's free nightly showings at New York University. He became known as "The Wizard of the Cornet" and by the eighth season of the shows, Kauppi purchased a red-gold Victor Cornet which he began using in all his appearances on stage. Kauppi attributed much of his success to the red-gold instrument he used. Goldman himself has proclaimed Kauppi to be the "most finished and delightful of artists on the cornet". In July 1926, Kauppi suffered a serious nervous breakdown and thus, his contract with the Goldman Band was terminated. He was subsequently replaced by Del Staigers.

### 1917–1924: Edwin J. McEnelly Orchestra

Kauppi joined the Edwin J. McEnelly Orchestra as a cornet player in the year of 1917. The McEnelly orchestra didn't make public recordings until 1925. McEnelly’s orchestra recorded 21 sides for Victor Company. Waino Kauppi was drawn away from the McEnelly orchestra and left in 1924.

### 1927: Waino Kauppi Suomi Orkesteri

Waino Kauppu had also created his own group of musicians in which he continued to play as solo cornetist. He produced and recorded six sides for Victor Company.

## Death

After Kauppi lost his front teeth in an automobile accident, he had dentures made, but he could no longer play his instrument like he used to. He committed suicide in his Bronx apartment by turning on the gas in his kitchen.

# Wedge Community Co-op

The **Wedge Community Co-op** or **The Wedge** is a food cooperative located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Located at 2105 Lyndale Avenue South, the Wedge derives its name from the popular nickname for the Lowry Hill East neighborhood, called "The Wedge" due to its shape. The Wedge is a member of the NCG.

## History

The Wedge was formed in 1974 in a basement apartment on Franklin Avenue in Minneapolis. It was formed after a group of neighbors met that summer to organize a cooperative store to provide themselves with whole and natural foods, preferably in bulk quantities to save money. In 1979, the Wedge moved to Lyndale Avenue. Wedge had a member labor program in place until 1992, when it built a new store in the lot adjacent to its store. An addition which doubled the retail space was built in 1997.

The Wedge was the first certified organic grocery store in Minnesota.

In 2015, the Wedge became the first consumer co-op in the Twin Cities metro area to unionize.

In 2016 the members voted to consolidate with Linden Hills Co-op, forming the Twin Cities Co-op Partnership (TCCP). The combined entity had 25,000 members and employed over 500 employees.

## Warehouse

The Wedge Co-op has a wholesale distributor, the Co-op Partners Warehouse, which services retail co-ops, natural food stores and restaurants in the Upper Midwest. Co-op Partners Warehouse began as a produce wholesaler and has since expanded into organic milk, cheese and yogurt; soy products, fresh juices and smoothies; and a selection of dry grocery items. In April 2012, employees of the Wedge's Co-op Partners Warehouse formed a union to voice their dissatisfaction with wages and management decisions. In November 2015, employees of the Wedge Lyndale location voted 76 to 31 to unionize its retail location.

## Gardens of Eagan

In January 2008, the co-op leased 'Gardens of Eagan', one of the oldest local certified organic produce farms in the Twin Cities area. The co-op has the option to purchase the land after five years, and has been running the operation since summer 2008. The Wedge put the farm up for sale in April 2015, deciding to concentrate on its retail operations.

## Organic Field School

In 2008, the Wedge Co-op formed the Organic Field School (OFS) at Gardens of Eagan. OFS is an on-farm facility with a focus on education and research for farmers, educators, policy makers and the public.

## WedgeShare

Since 1997, The Wedge has administered a charitable giving program based on the 7th cooperative principle. The donations are given to community groups chosen by the Wedge membership by vote. In its history, WedgeShare has given nearly $240,000 to non-profit organizations.

## IS4C

The Wedge uses IS4C, a Point of Sale (PoS) system for cooperatives. The program was developed by Tak Tang, an employee of The Wedge.

# Lars Arendt-Nielsen

**Lars Arendt-Nielsen**  (born 5 June 1958 in Langeskov, Denmark) is a professor at Aalborg University specialising in translational pain research and bio-markers. Lars Arendt-Nielsen's research is highly recognised internationally, and in addition to his university work he has established several businesses.

## Educational background

In 1982, Lars Arendt-Nielsen was awarded a master's degree in Biomedical Sciences and continued his studies at University College London. In 1987 he was awarded the PhD degree in biomedical sciences from Aalborg University, and in 1994 he was awarded the higher doctoral degree in medicine from Aarhus University.

## Background, career and academic contributions

Lars Arendt-Nielsen was inspired by the English pain researcher Patrick David Wall (25 April 1925 – 8 August 2001), who taught Lars Arendt-Nielsen at UCL, London in 1983–84, to pursue a career in pain research. Wall diligently pointed out to his students that research in pain was lacking, and Lars Arendt-Nielsen responded to this throughout his academic career.

In 1993 Lars Arendt-Nielsen became a professor in biomedical sciences at Aalborg University and was instrumental in establishing the Center for Sensory-Motor Interaction (SMI) and formalise the establishment of the experimental and clinical pain research unit. It is from this platform his research group significantly developed, focusing on the following main fields:

1) Translational pain research.

2) Quantitative, human bio-markers and experimental tools for provocation and assessment of pain from skin, muscles and viscera in healthy volunteers and pain patients.

3) Development of human bio-markers for the screening/profiling new analgesics.

4) Quantitative, human bio-markers and experimental tools for provocation and assessment of itch in healthy volunteers and chronic itch patients.

5) Development of human itch-markers for the screening/profiling new anti-pruritic drugs.

Under Lars Arendt-Nielsen's leadership, the pain research at Aalborg University developed into one of the largest and most productive pain research groups in the world. The research team counted at some stage more than 90 researchers from many different disciplines and countries (50% internationalisation). Lars Arendt-Nielsen likewise founded a PhD programme in 1997 (The Doctoral School In Medicine, Biomedical Science and Technology) with more than 70 enrolled students. Personally, he has supervised more than 50 PhD students and has published more than 1000 peer reviewed journal papers (sum of times cited 34,420, average citations per item 31.05, H-index 85, Web of Science). Lars Arendt Nielsen's list of publications is available at:

http://vbn.aau.dk/da/persons/lars-arendtnielsen(1794f9ec-22f1-47af-96c1-88c23c3b06a2)/publications.html

As a researcher, Lars Arendt-Nielsen has managed research funds amounting to a total value of approx. 60 million euros.

Lars Arendt-Nielsen has established an extensive global network with universities, hospitals and industries; he has worked in England, Sweden, Japan and Italy and has given more than 350 keynote lectures at international conferences and meetings.

In 2016, Lars Arendt-Nielsen was appointed president-elect of the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP), which has approx. 8,000 members in 132 countries. From October 2018 to October 2020 Lars Arendt-Nielsen served as president for IASP.

Lars Arendt-Nielsen also plays an active role in the business community; he founded Bio-Medical Consult ApS (LLC) and has been its managing director since 2004; C4Pain (LLC) and research director since 2011; a co-founder and board member of Nocitech since 2013 and centre director of the Health Science and Technology Business Park (Eir) since 2011.

# Waino, Wisconsin

**Waino** is an unincorporated community in the town of Brule, Douglas County, Wisconsin, United States.

## History

### Round Finn Hall

Waino's "Round Finn Hall" was a "Finn hall", a cultural center of Finnish Americans. It was the site to a number of gatherings related to the American radical movement in the 1920s and 1930s. The county seat of Douglas County, Superior, as well as the neighboring city of Duluth, Minnesota, were in the early 20th century a regional center of industry, including timber production and shipping, ore docks, commercial shops, and railway yards. The region was a center of Finnish-American immigration in America, with Superior additionally the home of *Työmies* (The Worker), an official publication first of the Finnish Socialist Federation and from 1922 of the Workers (Communist) Party of America.

Waino and its Round Finn Hall made a close and comfortable location for gatherings of radical Finns in a rural setting. From 1925, and for several years thereafter, this was the site of the national summer school of the Communist Party's youth section, the Young Workers League. The Finnish cooperative movement, dominated in the 1920s and early 1930s by Communist Party adherents, also held a number of gatherings and festivals at the location.

Uva Rara has a long history of being grown in the Piedmont and Lombardy region, particularly in the provinces of Alessandria, Asti, Biella, Novara, Torino, Vercelli and Pavia. Here the grape has been historically used as a blending grape, with Nebbiolo in Piedmont and with Barbera and Croatina in Lombardy.

Uva Rara is often confused with the Gattinara and Oltrepò Pavese grape Vespolina that is also known as *Uva Rara*, which means "rare grape" in Italian. Around the communes of Novara, Pavia and Vercelli, Uva Rara is known as *Bonarda* which has led it to be confused with many of the other grape varieties known as Bonarda, particularly Bonarda Piemontese. However, despite the similarities of synonyms and use in many of the same wines, there is no known relationship between Uva Rara and these other grape varieties.

## Viticulture

Uva Rara is a mid to late-ripening grape variety. Among the viticultural hazards that the vine is most susceptible to includes the fungal infection of powdery mildew and millerandage which can lead to the malformation of grape berries if the weather is unfavourable during flowering.

## Wine regions

In 2000, there were 608 hectares (1,502 acres) of Uva Rara planted throughout Italy with the vast majority in the Piedmont and Lombardy regions. Here the grape is a permitted blending variety in several DOCs and can be made as a varietal in the Colline Novaresi DOC. In the Oltrepò Pavese and San Colombano al Lambro DOC, Uva Rara is usually blended with Croatina and Barbera while in the Boca, Fara, Coste della Sesia DOC and Sizzano DOCs, it plays a secondary role to Nebbiolo. It is also permitted in the DOCG wine of Ghemme where it plays a similar role in softening the Nebbiolo-based wines of the region.

## Styles

While Uva Rara is primarily a blending grape, adding softness and fruit to the wines, it can also be made into a varietal. According to Master of Wine Jancis Robinson, varietal styles of Uva Rara tend to be soft, medium bodied with a very perfumed bouquet but the potential to have a bitter finish.

## Synonyms

Over the years Uva Rara has been known under a variety of synonyms including: Balsamea, Balsamina, Balsamina nera, Bonarda, Bonarda di Cavaglia, Bonarda di Gattinara, Bonarda Novarese, Foglia Lucente, Martellana, Oriana, Orianella, Oriola, Raione, Rairon, Raplum, Raplun and Rara.

title: Piano nobile

# Piano nobile

***Piano nobile*** (Italian for "noble floor" or "noble level", also sometimes referred to by the corresponding French term, ***bel étage***) is the architectural term for the principal floor of a *palazzo*. This floor contains the main reception and bedrooms of the house.

The German term is *Beletage* (meaning "beautiful storey", from the French *bel étage*). Both date to the 17th century.

## Characteristics

The *piano nobile* is usually the first floor (in European terminology; second floor in American terms) or sometimes the second storey and contains major rooms, located above the rusticated ground floor containing the minor rooms and service rooms. The reasons were so that the rooms above the ground floor would have finer views and to avoid the dampness and odours of the street level. That is especially true in Venice, where the *piano nobile* of the many *palazzi* is especially obvious from the exterior by virtue of its larger windows and balconies and open loggias. Examples are Ca' Foscari, Ca' d'Oro, Ca' Vendramin Calergi and Palazzo Barbarigo.

Larger windows than those on other floors are usually the most obvious feature of the *piano nobile*. In England and Italy, the *piano nobile* is often reached by an ornate outer staircase, which avoided for the floor's inhabitants of the need to enter the house by the servant's floor below. Kedleston Hall is an example of this in England, as is Villa Capra "La Rotonda" in Italy.

Most houses contained a secondary floor above the *piano nobile*, which contained more intimate withdrawing and bedrooms for private use by the family of the house when no honoured guests were present. Above that floor would often be an attic floor containing staff bedrooms.

In Italy, especially in Venetian *palazzi*, the floor above the *piano nobile* is sometimes referred to as the "***secondo piano nobile***" (second principal floor), especially if the loggias and balconies reflect those below on a slightly smaller scale. In those instances and occasionally in museums, the principal *piano nobile* is described as the ***primo piano nobile*** to differentiate it.

The arrangement of floors continued throughout Europe as large houses continued to be built in the classical style. The arrangement was designed at Buckingham Palace as recently as the mid-19th century. Holkham Hall, Osterley Park and Chiswick House are among the innumerable 18th-century English houses that employed the design.

He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) from 1909 to 1918 for the Pittsburgh Pirates, St. Louis Cardinals, and New York Yankees. Hyatt started his professional baseball career with the Vancouver Beavers of the Northwestern League. In 1908, he hit.323 with 15 home runs; he led the league in hits, home runs, and runs scored. He was purchased by the Pittsburgh Pirates after the season. From 1909 to 1914, Hyatt served mostly as a pinch hitter for the Pirates; Steve Treder of The Hardball Times credits him as baseball's first pinch-hitting specialist. His 181 OPS+ in 1913 is the highest for a single season of any player deployed in this role. Hyatt also had one-year stints playing for the St. Louis Cardinals and the New York Yankees. After his time in the major leagues ended, Hyatt played in the minors. He spent 1920–1923 with the Pacific Coast League's Vernon Tigers, hitting over.300 each year.
