The Versa, a left tributary of the Tanaro, is a 35 kilometre torrent in the Province of Asti in north-west Italy. It is the river of the valley called Valle Versa. In 1836 the Versa was identified, along with the Rotaldo, the Grana, the Stura and the Gattola, as one of the five torrents of the still extant Province of Casale.[1]

Its source is a little to the north of Cocconato near the border with the Province of Turin. After a generally southerly course of 35 km it enters the Tanaro just to the east of Asti.[2]

This river is not to be confused with the Versa that is a tributary of the Po.

Tanaro

The Tanaro (Italian pronunciation: [ˈtaːnaro]), known as Tanarus in ancient times and Tane or Tani in piedmontese language, is a 276-kilometre (171 mi) long river in northwestern Italy.

It begins in the Ligurian Alps, near the border with France, and is the most significant right-side tributary to the Po in terms of length, size of drainage basin (partly Alpine, partly Apennine), and discharge. At its confluence with Po, it is longer by about 50 kilometres (31 mi) than the upper Po, a case similar to the famous Missouri tributary being longer than Mississippi in the United States.

Sources

The Tanaro proper begins in Liguria at the confluence of two small streams, the sources of which are in Piedmont: the Tanarello and the Negrone.

The main source of the Tanarello is on the slopes of Monte Saccarello above Monesi, a village belonging to the commune of Triora. This mountain straddles the French département of Alpes-Maritimes, the Piedmontese province of Cuneo and the Ligurian province of Imperia and marks the juncture of the watersheds between three drainage basins: that of the Tanaro itself; that of the Roya (Italian Roia), which rises in France but enters the sea at Ventimiglia; and the Argentina, which flows into the Ligurian Sea at Taggia.

Tanaro (department)

Tanaro was a short-lived department of the French Consulate and of the First French Empire in present-day Italy. It was named after the river Tanaro. It was formed in 1802, when the Subalpine Republic (formerly the mainland portion of the Kingdom of Sardinia) was directly annexed to France. Its capital was Asti.

The department was disbanded in 1805, when the French conquered the Ligurian Republic, and its territory was divided over the departments of Marengo, Montenotte and Stura.

Subdivision

The department was subdivided into the following arrondissements and cantons (situation in 1805):

  • Asti, cantons: Asti, Canelli, Castelnuovo, Cocconato, Costigliole, Mombercelli, Montafia, Montechiaro, Portacomaro, Rocca d'Arazzo, San Damiano, Tigliole and Villanova d'Asti.
  • Acqui, cantons: Acqui, Castelletto d'Orba, Dego, Incisa, Nizza Monferrato, Santo Stefano Belbo, Spigno and Visone.
  • Alba, cantons: Alba, Bossolasco, Bra, Canale, Cortemilia, Guarene, La Morra and Sommariva del Bosco.
  • Versa

    Versa or VERSA may refer to:

  • VERSA, a sub-brand for NEC's computer products
  • Versa (band), an experimental rock band previously known as VersaEmerge
  • Versa (Po), a tributary of the Po which runs through the Province of Pavia in northern Italy
  • Versa (query language), an RDF query language
  • Versa (Tanaro), a tributary of the Tanaro which runs through the Province of Asti in northern Italy
  • Maruti Versa a multi purpose vehicle (MPV) made by Maruti Udyog Limited and sold in India
  • Nissan Versa, the North American market name of the Nissan Tiida automobile
  • Optare Versa, a British-built midibus
  • Versa (query language)

    Versa is an RDF query language, that is, a query language for databases, able to retrieve and manipulate data stored in Resource Description Framework (RDF) format. Versa differs from most other RDF query languages, which are typically based on SQL or specialized XML vocabularies. Although the design of Versa was inspired by XPath, its compact, functional syntax also somewhat resembles Lisp. As of 2006, the only Versa implementation is in the Python-language, open source 4Suite XML framework.

    History and status

    Versa's origins can be traced to 2000, when professional XML consultancy Fourthought, Inc. began developing RIL, an open, XML-based RDF Inference Language. RIL was implemented briefly in Fourthought's 4Suite Server product, which allowed for persistent storage and querying of an RDF model and associated XML document store.

    In October 2001, the query portion of RIL was spun off into a separate project named Versa, with the intent that after Versa stabilized, development would resume to establish RIL as a formal language for working Versa query results. RIL development never resumed, however; inference abilities in 4Suite were easily handled by XSLT extensions and did not need a separate language.

    Versa (band)

    Versa (stylized as VERSA) were an American rock duo formed in Port St. Lucie, Florida in 2006, as VersaEmerge. The group consists of Blake Harnage (guitar, vocals, and programming) and Sierra Kay (lead vocals). They had a revolving line-up, their most prolific being with bassist Devin Ingelido, who was a member from 2007 until 2011.

    Following self-releases, the band signed with record label Fueled by Ramen in late 2008 and released VersaEmerge EP in 2009, and their full-length debut Fixed at Zero (2010) met with positive reviews from alternative critics. The album didn't enter the Billboard 200 chart, but it ranked third on the Billboard Top Heatseekers. After changing their name to Versa, the duo self-released the EP Neon on January 21, 2014.

    Although the band were considered part of the emo pop scene and compared to other emo female-fronted bands, Versa's music style included experimental rock, space rock and electronic rock, as being influenced by artist Björk and band Muse.
