If the Buffalo Sabres reason for existence is to win the Stanley Cup, they might want to take a look at Bo Horvat. How can you tie one mid-round player to hockey's biggest prize? Ask former NHL GM, and current analyst Craig Button. Hockey Prospect Watch next profiles Bo Horvat.
In a live chat through TSN, Craig Button talked glowingly of Bo Horvat.
"He can shoot, he can pass,he can push opponents off the puck, he can create distractions at the net, he is smart, he is determined,he is versatile",said Button. "Bo is a player who helps teams win and while he won't be a scoring champion, I am confident that he will be a Stanley Cup Champion."
Sounds good, right? Sign him up. Horvat doesn't have the elite level skills that the top prospects do, but he'll bring an awful lot to the team that calls his name. Much like the projected #1 pick Nathan MacKinnon, Horvat left the biggest impression in the biggest games.
Bo Horvat is a 6'0'' 200 lb center that has played with the London Knights. You may remember that London took part in the Memorial Cup this year, and it's because of Horvat's heroics.
In Game 7 of the OHL Finals, Horvat scored a pair of goals, including the gamewinner. Time of the goal - 19:59:9 of the third period. Horvat's goal with one tenth-of-a-second remaining stands as yet another testament to his MVP status.
Seven goals and four assists in the finals, Horvat came to play. The OHL title was just the wrap-up to what was an incredible OHL tournament for Horvat. He finished out with16 goals and 23 points in 21 OHL playoff games.
Ranked as the 15th best North American skater, Horvat could be a target for the Sabres with the 16th pick. Here are some reviews:
Hockey Prospectus - He is tough, hard working, and defensively skilled, with enough offensive ability to project as a scoring line player...He is a strong, physical center who will lay the body, displaying the two-way work ethic NHL teams want to see. He is an aware penalty killer, good at faceoffs, and overall projects as a center who will start his shift in the defensive zone more often than not. His creativity progressed throughout this season, and his puck skills, hand-eye coordination, and playmaking vision all rank as above average; he can flash high-end offensive skill. It is difficult to find a weakness in his game. - Corey Pronman
Hockey's Future.com - Horvat's bullish style of play garnered a lot of attention this year both in London and during the Knights' run through the OHL playoffs. On a young team, Horvat stepped up and assumed a huge leadership responsibility, while showing his offensive bonafides. But what impresses observers most about Horvat is how hard he plays the game. He can score, but his truest strengths are defensive play and skill in the faceoff circle. Though he would be an ideal third-line centre in the NHL, Horvat could find himself on a team's top six -- as the sandpaper on an offensively gifted line. He could be lethal in that role as he has the hands and nose for the net to take advantage of the dirty areas of the net.
Horvat's skill establishes him as a likely mid-first round pick. If we're talking about the Sabres, we're likely talking about the "bullish" kid that could be part of the next core. Craig Button would approve. Will Darcy Regier?

Learn to fix it yourself
Clinics defy throwaway economy
|Jimmy Lynch, left, and Paul Dingels fix a lamp belonging to Molly Ross at a Fix-It Clinic sponsored by Hennepin County in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The clinics are staffed by volunteers who help resurrect appliances to keep them from going in the trash. (Bruce Bisping/Minneapolis Star Tribune/MCT)
The table lamp, with its fizzling lightbulbs, was built like a tank and was about as attractive. Its base was so heavy that not even the cats could knock it over — and therein lay its beauty.
Reason enough for Molly Ross of Edina, Minn., to set it before a group of people who know how to fix fizzling lamps and recalcitrant toasters and unpredictable boomboxes.

Large Bowel Resection
Colon Diseases: Numerous colon and rectal problems are amenable to laparoscopic resection. Problems related to Inflammatory Bowel Disease (such as Crohn's Disease), Familial Polyposis, volvulus (twisting of the bowel), endometriosis, diverticular disease and other benign and malignant diseases of the colon can be treated with minimally invasive surgery. Laparoscopic colectomy for colorectal cancer is performed successfully at many institutions across the county.
Symptoms: The symptoms associated with benign and cancerous colon disease vary widely but include the following:
Diagnosis: Several studies or procedures can help your doctor make decisions:
Surgery: Laparoscopic colectomy is feasible for benign and cancerous lesions. Rectal cancers that are more than 5 cm above the end of the rectum may also be resected (low anterior resection) with preservation of continence. Patients with liver cirrhosis, problems associated with acute inflammatory bowel disease and problems with blood clotting make very high risk candidates for laparoscopy.
Open surgical procedures require an eight-inch incision on the abdomen. The laparoscopic approach involves making four half-inch incisions on the abdomen through which a camera and three instruments are placed. The colon to be resected is mobilized. One of the port sites is enlarged slightly, and the colon is removed.
Procedures: The principles involved in removing portions of the colon are similar for many different operations involving benign and malignant disease. Procedures that may be performed laparoscopically include:
Recovery: Patients recover much sooner after laparoscopic surgery. Generally, patients are discharged after only two to four days in the hospital. Return to activities can occur within three to seven days, compared to 2-4 weeks with an open approach. Wound infections and hernias occur less frequently with the laparoscopic technique. Also, much less pain has been reported with laparoscopic surgery.

That is down from the 18.15 billion gallons required by the Energy Independence and Security Act.
November 23, 2013
With a flurry of activity in a 24-hour overtime period, the Warsaw climate talks managed an outcome COP President Marcin Korolec declared a success. But it will have to be a qualified success.
November 22, 2013
Climate negotiators from more than 190 nations may still be far apart at the Warsaw talks that aim to lay the groundwork for a final 2015 Paris deal. But some are already looking ahead to traversing increasingly more difficult terrain over the next two years, including deciding exactly when nations have to essentially make an opening bid on how deeply they can cut greenhouse gas emissions after 2020.
WARSAW--Negotiators arrived Friday for the final day of two-week climate talks staring at a chasm of issues that still split developed and developing countries but none more pressing than the billions of dollars poor nations want now for the loss and damage already suffered due to climate change. Whether the Nov. 11-22 UN talks will end in Warsaw tonight is anyone's guess—they have spilled past the final Friday of the negotiations into the weekend for years now. But the halls between negotiating rooms were eerily quiet today after a walkout yesterday by 800 or so members of environmental and trade union groups over what they see as indifference by developed nations to the damages caused mostly by their greenhouse gas emissions, which are the bulk of what is now in the atmosphere.
The European Parliament's Committee on Environment, Public Health and Food Safety will meet Nov. 27 in Brussels during which European Union lawmaker Peter Liese plans to propose changes to a draft law on greenhouse gas emissions from airlines to shorten the period in which curbs on international carriers are limited to the bloc's airspace.
The president of the next UN climate summit, Peruvian Minister of Environment Manuel Pulgar-Vidal, says the fate of the planned 2015 global agreement on climate change will depend largely on what is accomplished next year at the Conference of the Parties in Lima. He spoke to Bloomberg BNA about the challenges ahead on the sidelines of the Warsaw talks on Friday.
November 21, 2013
Another day at the Warsaw climate talks, another walkout. More than 800 representatives of nongovernmental groups walked out of the United Nations climate talks Thursday to protest a lack of progress on key issues since the summit started Nov. 11.

About This Brand
ambsn was started by Dylan and Dustin Odbert in 2001 in an effort to raise money for high school friend Cameron who was tragically struck by a train loosing both of his leg and right arm after a party one night. Cameron being the optimistic person he is, took the incident in stride, walking on prosthetics within six months and today gives motivational speeches to others who have suffered similar injuries. Mean while the ambsn brand began to grow and in 2005 Dylan and Dustin dedicated themselves to growing the brand full time, starting with a few dozen T-shirt designs which the debuted at the Agenda tradeshow in San Diego. Today the two brothers have grown ambsn into an American made, trend setting, lifestyle brand that is sold to over 260 of the finest retailers all over the world.

Visitor Info Center
White Pass Scenic Byway
Chinook Pass Byway
Stop by the Chamber's Visitors Center at the Town this summer.
Naches, nestled in a scenic valley at the
foothills of the Cascade Mountains, is the gateway to Yakima
Valley's agriculture and winery attractions to the east and
the beautiful Cascade Mountains to the west.
Just minutes west of Naches summer and winter
recreation and unparalleled natural scenery abound on White
Pass and Chinook Pass, leading to the Mt. Rainier National
Park. Enjoy snow skiing, river rafting, hiking, hunting, nature
walks, snowmobiling, birding, fishing, boating, and many more outdoor activities.
Prepare for your trip up into the Cascade Mountains
by stopping first in Naches to stock up on groceries, propane,
hiking, and hunting gear. Enjoy a delicious meal at the home-style
cafes and find all your needs for your trip at the small businesses
in Naches.
The Naches Valley offers its residents a quiet,
rural lifestyle, while enjoying blue ribbon schools and proximity
to the amenities in the nearby community of Yakima. All these
factors and more make our small town a great place to raise
a family, retire, and enjoy an excellent quality of life.
If you do not see the activity, business, or information
on the recreational activity you are looking for on this website,
please contact our Chamber President, Randy Juette at (509)
The Naches Valley has a large area with many local events
and festivals — winter, spring, summer and fall. Check
out our events calendar.
If you need to get your event on our web site call us.
We hope you enjoy your next visit to Naches! Let us know
if there is additional information you need on our community,
local services, sights and activities to prepare for your

Cap-Sleeved V-Neck Long Tee Indispensable Travel Dress 32 32
returning item I found the fit to be very large, too much material below the bust. Also dress arrived very wrinkled, can't believe it will pack well. I am returning dress. December 10, 2013
Too good to be true Saved me on a trip to India when my luggage was lost. This is the only thing I had for three days with a sweater, rinsed it in the sink, but slow to dry was the only disadvantage December 23, 2013
Versatile dress, nice length This dress is my favorite length (tea length is an easy description) which is more graceful on me than anything near my knees. (I am 5'7" tall.) I have the blue, and it is an easy dress to wear with a sweater or jacket, casual or dressier. I want it in red, but it seems to not be available in my size! I wish it were a little better designed for a woman who is a bit pear shaped (most women are!) Letting out the hips is impossible, but a woman who is slim through the hips could take it in. October 29, 2013
For slim gals only This is body-hugging, so if you have a tummy or a bottom, it will show plainly. To look good in this dress you really need to be quite slim. I am 5'7" and 150 pounds, with that unfortunate middle age middle. If I lost 20 pounds it would be a lovely dress in size 12. Otherwise quality is good - nice fabric, nice length, and the blue color is wonderful. Black is nice too. I just need something that hides more of me. October 26, 2013
Mmmm This dress is light weight - not like travel knits of the past from Travelsmith. I wear a stretch belt diagonally below the waist to disguise my tummy. I agree, the pocket can go - it's useless. Wrinkles fall out easily. Not my favoite piece from Travelsmith, but acceptable. I have one in red and one in black. October 25, 2013
Great Black Dress This dress is very true to size and it fits beautifully. It can easily be dressed up or worn as is. It will definitely be a part of my must haves in all my travels. The only negative for me, is I am short, about five feet tall now. The dress comes to my ankles so I will need to have it altered. October 23, 2013
Lovely Fit Very nice material; and can be used dressed up or dressed down. A perfect evening dress October 22, 2013
Great dress, on caveat I love this dress for travel or a quick around-town dress. It is very comfortable and holds it shape well. Washing by hand and drying when traveling is a cinch. It was my go-to outfit in Greece this summer. I would give it five stars, but I thought it pilled a bit too easily where my handbag strap rested on my shoulder. I will be more careful next time. I just ordered a replacement. October 18, 2013

Positive Experience
Average Interview
I applied through college or university and the process took 2+ weeks - interviewed at Amegy Corporation.
Interview Details Applied online through career center website. Met with the recruiters at on-campus career fair. Then had an on-campus interview. Behavioral type 30 minute interview. The interviewer was very nice and approachable. The whole application was easy, they were very flexible with my weird school schedule.

When you set your TV to JustScan, you may see a snowy, garbled, black and white line on the top of the screen. Usually, this is caused by something called overscan.
Typically, overscan extends the picture beyond the edges of your TV set so that when you view a picture, there are no blank or snowy sections on your screen at any of the edges. JustScan removes the overscan and, using 1:1 pixel matching, adjusts the picture so that each pixel of the broadcast image is matched to a pixel on the screen. The picture fits the screen exactly.
Some broadcast programs, however, do not carry all the picture resolution information necessary to fill the screen when the TV is set to JustScan. The result of this lack of information is the overscan line ? the area of the picture for which the resolution information is missing.
To eliminate the overscan line, you must set the TV to 16:9. The 16:9 screen size has overscan which extends the picture beyond the edges of the screen and removes the overscan line.
Note: The overscan line can appear on all channels, certain channels, or certain programs, depending what is being broadcast.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Our invites were personalized to match our colours (navy). They turned out amazing and we also customized with a picture on the back as well. The quality of the paper and printing was amazing. Very happy with shipping, as it arrived to Canada very quickly. We are in the process of ordering our Thank you cards now. Thanks for all your help :)"
"I got this invitation for my wedding in the grey, with the ticket corners, and pearl shimmer finish. The invitations looks so expensive and I am already getting compliments on them. Would def recommend."
"After looking at samples from a number of different companies I decided to order my wedding invitations from Wedding Paper Divas and I'm really glad I did! I submitted my artwork and within 2 days they had a digital proof for me to look at. I even received a phone call to let me know it had been sent. At this time I decided to make a quick change and they had a new proof to me within the hour. I was expecting to wait a couple weeks before receiving them but within 2 days of approving my final artwork they were already at my door! They look great, feel great and I'm so excited to send them out! Thank you for your excellent customer service!! I will highly recommend you to anyone I know that needs invitations and will be sure to come to you again when I need anything else!"
"These invitations are exactly how we imagined they would be. I had been looking for quite some time and nothing had really jumped out at us, and that is what we wanted. We did the pearl shimmer finish and rounded corners and it really added something extra. My fiance's favorite part, and one of mine as well, was the initials on the back. Something different, which is exactly what we were going for. Can't wait to send these out!"
"My Wedding Invitations were absolutely PERFECT. They truly reflected the theme and thoughts we wanted for our guests to begin to visualize of beginning of our dream coming true."

Huff Named Mid-Con Player of the Week
Monday, February 05, 2007Shawn Huff (Helsinki, Finland/Makelanrinne) has been named Men's Basketball Player of the Week by the Mid-Continent Conference for his role in leading the Crusaders to key conference wins last week over Oral Roberts and Centenary.
The junior set a career high with five made 3-pointers in Valpo's overtime win Thursday over the Golden Eagles, who entered the game atop the league at 7-0. Huff hit his third triple of the game with 18 seconds to play to cut the ORU lead to two points, and followed with another 3-pointer with five seconds left to send the game to the extra session. Midway through overtime, Huff hit his fifth triple, giving Valpo the lead for good. He finished with a game-high 21 points and five rebounds.
Versus Centenary on Saturday, Huff hit three more 3-pointers and finished with 11 points and eight rebounds. His eight caroms matched his career high, set twice earlier this season. For the week, Huff averaged 16 points and 6.5 rebounds per game on 47.8% shooting and hit eight total 3-pointers.

Health and wellness are important for academic success during college. Students and parents are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the following information, policies and resources:
Roosevelt University is pleased to partner with AIG, Educational Markets as our student health insurance administrator for student health insurance coverage. AIG works with a network of local and national health care providers so students have access to the best care available. Participation in the student health insurance plan is:
The annual student health insurance fee is charged to fall semester students and the spring/summer student health insurance fee is charged to new spring semester students. Students have two options:
1) enroll in the Roosevelt student plan or
2) waive the insurance because they have equivalent coverage.
The charge will appear on your student account until you waive before the advertised deadline. You must successfully complete the online waiver application to be successfully waived from this requirement. Visit www.studentinsurance.com/Schools/IL/ROOSEVELT/ to complete the online waiver application. If you do not complete the waiver or you are not approved by the deadline, you will be automatically enrolled in the plan. The application process may take up to business 10 days.
Enrollment and waiver periods end a few weeks after the start of each term. Note: College of Pharmacy students have a different deadline; please refer to the insurance plan website for information. For more details about the plan benefits available to enrolled Roosevelt students, visit www.studentinsurance.com/Schools/IL/ROOSEVELT.
Optional dental insurance is also available to degree seeking students. To enroll in the dental plan, visit www.studentinsurance.com/Schools/IL/ROOSEVELT Once you're on the AIG website, click "Enroll" and then click "Dental" to begin the process and learn more about the program. Students who enroll voluntarily pay for their insurance directly to AIG.
Student health insurance brochures are available in Auditorium Room 204 or Schaumburg Room 125. If you have questions about health insurance or you need assistance with your Roosevelt student health plan, please contact Student Services at 312-341-3525 or visit Auditorium Room 204.
Roosevelt University does not have a student health center on either campus. However, Michigan Avenue Immediate Care (MAIC) is a health facility located near the Chicago Campus at 180 N. Michigan Avenue, Suite 1605. MAIC offers walk-in treatment for immediate medical concerns but not life threatening emergencies. MAIC also has diagnostic services such as x-rays and laboratory tests, and offers medical examinations (including appropriate immunizations and prophylactic medications) for those students who might be pursuing overseas travel. The staff includes full time physicians and medical assistants. Appointments are not needed.
Students are responsible for making payment arrangements directly with MAIC. MAIC accepts most major medical plans including Roosevelt's student health insurance program as well as cash, Visa and MasterCard.

En español | For many years I worked in palliative care. My patients were those who had gone home to die. Some incredibly special times were shared. I was with them for the last three to 12 weeks of their lives.
See also: Things you should probably never do again after 50.
People grow a lot when they are faced with their own mortality. I learned never to underestimate someone's capacity for growth. Some changes were phenomenal. Each experienced a variety of emotions, as expected: denial, fear, anger, remorse, more denial and eventually acceptance. Yet every single patient found peace before departing. Every one of them.
When questioned about any regrets they had or anything they would do differently, common themes surfaced. Here are the most common five:
1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
This was the most common regret of all. When people realize that their life is almost over and look back clearly on it, it is easy to see how many dreams have gone unfulfilled. Most people have not honored even half of their dreams and had to die knowing that it was due to choices they'd made, or not made.
It's important to try to honor at least some of your dreams along the way. It's too late once you lose your health. Health brings a freedom very few realize, until they no longer have it.
2. I wish I didn't work so hard.
This came from every male patient I nursed. They missed their children's youth and their partner's companionship. Women also spoke of this regret. But as most were from an older generation, many of the female patients had not been breadwinners. All of the men I nursed deeply regretted spending so much of their lives on the treadmill of a work existence.
By simplifying your lifestyle and making conscious choices along the way, it is possible to not need the income that you think you do. And by creating more space in your life, you become happier and more open to new opportunities, ones more suited to your new lifestyle.

Midwest Labor and Working Class History Graduate Student Colloquium 2012 and 2013
|Keynote panel on historians as activists with Jasmine Alinder, Rachel Buff, Tony Shultz and Jacob Glicklich.
The second annual Midwest Labor and Working Class History (MLWCH—pronounced MILL-witch) Graduate Student Colloquium, organized by the Alliance of History Graduate Students (AHGS), was held February 17-18 2012 at the UWM Student Union, with the theme "Power and Struggle." The conference began with a keynote panel featuring faculty and students, including Rachel Buff, Jasmine Alinder, Tony Shultz and Jacob Glicklich, who made connections between their identities as activists and historians. Saturday saw a full day of panels of graduate students from all over the Midwest talking about their research. Graduate students from the University of Iowa, the University of Illinois-Chicago, Western Michigan University, the University of Chicago, Northern Illinois University, Northwestern, the University of Michigan, the University of Iowa, and Marquette, as well as UWM, took part in the conference. Both UWM faculty and graduate students chaired the panels and made the experience empowering for the panelists. For many graduate students, this was their first experience at a conference, and everyone said that they felt encouraged by the support and engagement of faculty and graduate students.
|Graduate student panel on women fighting sweatshops through solidarity activism, with Carrie Philpott and Beth Robinson.
|Graduate student panel on capitalist pedagogy and its discontents, with Eli Thorkelson, Louis Mercer, and Monique Liston.
AHGS is organizing a third MLWCH conference for February 15 and 16, 2013, with the theme "Solidarity and Fragmentation." They are soliciting papers of approximately 10 to 25 pages, from any discipline, broadly related to the themes of building solidarity and understanding the fragmentation of worker's protest movements. They invite papers related to the study of work and working people, labor history, rank-and-file workers, direct action, nonviolence, grassroots organizing, alternative and industrial unionism, labor law, social justice, radicalism, anti-racism, liberation theology and the prison industrial complex. They are interested in work that critiques or suggests new directions for various sub-disciplines related to working-class history, labor scholarship, or historiographies of peoples' struggles; papers that draw upon historical or contemporary movements that have challenged anti-labor policies and practices; those that examine transnational workers' or peoples' struggles; those that draw upon culturally specific or gendered and racialized interactions with capital; and those that analyze working-class artistic expression. Paper/Panel Proposals are due Dec. 1, 2012 to the conference address: email@example.com
Phi Alpha Theta Induction
The Delta Phi chapter of Phi Alpha Theta, the national history honor society, inducted forty new members at a ceremony and reception on Wednesday, March 14. Professor Emeritus Michael Gordon gave a fascinating talk (pdf 42kb) on labor history and local history, highlighting the visit of the labor organizer Mother Jones to Milwaukee in 1910. UWM's Delta Phi chapter has been reactivated this year under the leadership of new officers, and has sponsored a full schedule of workshops and lectures. Several members of the chapter attended the American Historical Association conference in Chicago in January, and many will be attending the Organization of American Historians conference in Milwaukee in April. The Phi Alpha Theta chapter will also be hosting the first annual UWM undergraduate history conference Friday May 11, from 1-4 pm in Holton 341 and adjoining rooms.

Four New History Faculty Members In 2011
Ben Johnson
Ben Johnson, who has a joint appointment with Global Studies, received his Ph.D. from Yale University in 2000, and taught at Southern Methodist University before coming to UWM. His areas of interest include three somewhat overlapping yet still distinct research fields: the history of the American West, the broader history of borderland areas, and environmental history. His first book, Revolution in Texas: How a Forgotten Rebellion and Its Bloody Suppression Turned Mexicans into Americans, published by Yale University Press, examined a regional rebellion in south Texas. In his second book, Bordertown: The Odyssey of an American Place, also published by Yale, Prof. Johnson developed an innovative collaboration with an art photographer to present the history of the U.S.-Mexico border through the life stories of the residents of one small town, accompanied by haunting black and white photographs of the land, buildings, and people. He is now working on a history of the conservation movement in the Progressive Era. Prof. Johnson will be teaching undergraduate and graduate courses on borderlands history, environmental history, and historical methods.
Christine Evans
Christine Evans received her Ph.D. in 2010 from the University of California, Berkeley, where her dissertation examined the relationship between mass media, propaganda, entertainment, and technology through a study of Soviet television in the middle and late twentieth century. She has published several articles on television and other aspects of Soviet culture, including "Song of the Year and Soviet 'Official' Culture in the 1970s," which appeared in Kritika: Explorations in Russian and Eurasian History, and is working on a book examining the topic. Prof. Evans will be teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in Russian history, the history of popular culture, and historical methods.
Marcus Filippello
Marcus Filippello received his Ph.D. in 2010 from the University of California-Davis, where his dissertation examined the social and environmental history of a road that connected two towns in southeastern Benin, West Africa. He analyzes debates about the road in terms of larger issues of environmental change, nationalism, and identity formation in the post-colonial world, and is currently developing this into a book while on a semester-long fellowship at the Institute for Advanced Study at the University of Minnesota. Prof. Filippello's interests in Africa emerged during his time as a Peace Corps volunteer in Togo, and he will be teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in African history and environmental history, and the world history survey.
David DiValerio
David DiValerio, who has a joint appointment with Religious Studies, received his Ph.D. in 2011 from the University of Virginia, where his dissertation focused on "holy madmen" in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. He examines these madmen, who performed shocking activities in public spaces or imitated wrathful deities in their dress and activities, within their social and historical contexts, which provides insights into both the political development of Tibet and the nature of sainthood. During his graduate training, Prof. DiValerio spent nearly two years in Tibet, India, and Nepal. He will be teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in Buddhism and Asian religions, and the introduction to religious studies.

On Trend: Regional Italian
What previous generations of Americans have identified (and loved!) as Italian food is in reality just a tiny portion of what the cuisine from the country has to offer; after all, Italy is a collection of 20 regions, each of which vary in climate, culture, and cuisine – and each reliant and enlivened by the foods grown there.
Generations of Italian immigrants brought their beloved recipes to our shores, and these quickly became Americanized. A prime example: the pizza available to most of us is a distant cousin to what is traditionally served in Italy. For a long time Americans have contented themselves with spaghetti and meatballs, cheesy baked dishes like lasagna, and of course pizza, but now – prompted by everything from restaurants willing to branch out (upscale spots as well as national chains), to the popularity of food TV – we are looking for more, and realizing just how diverse Italian cuisine has always been.
Not to mention how healthy. Regional Italian cuisine, because it depends on local, sustainable and seasonal ingredients, was on-trend before the healthy-green trend even existed. It's the cuisine most consumers – 56%, in a report commissioned by Barilla and conducted by Mintel – say they want to see more of at restaurants. That preference is even higher among Millennials, that cohort of Americans in their 20s and 30s, at 64%.
At its origins, Regional Italian food is fresh, local, healthy and varied. Put as simply as possible, Regional Italian can be defined as the kind of food Italians actually eat in Italy.
The different geographic regions of Italy rely on ingredients they can find, raise, fish from the sea, or grow in abundance locally. The warm climate and rich soil in the South means you'll find more citrus fruits and other fresh produce. Seaside regions will rely more on fish and seafood. Cooler mountainous regions in the North mean more grains and dairy products. The various regions also gain influence from the cultures around them (remember, Italy's only been a country since 1861). For example, Sicilian cuisine retains the influence of the various nearby cultures that have dominated it, from Greek (think olives and pistachios) to Arabic cultures from North Africa (saffron, couscous).
What does the Regional Italian trend mean for foodservice operators? The key to differentiating your Italian food from the competition lies in taking generic Italian food to the next level of authenticity, to a regional level. Michelle Loftus, executive sous chef for retail operations at the University of Montana in Missoula, says that any food service pro should be taking a long and loving look at regional Italian dishes.
"I've cooked Italian and other Mediterranean food most of my career, and I can tell you that people are looking for healthier, more sustainable food. The nice thing is that Italian food has never really gotten away from that," says Chef Lotus.
In the University's outside catering business, people are looking for different choices, says Lotus. "They most often request custom menus, which comes from a more sophisticated sense of what's out there," she adds. Commercial vendors, too, are finding that delving into Regional Italian, having more to offer, will help them stand out, as well as remain competitive with restaurants.
So what is Regional Italian? Taking a tour from the North of the country on down, you'll find richer, more deeply flavored dishes in northern regions, such as Piedmont. Think: creamy sauces; grains such as rice and polenta; pork sausages and cured hams; and earthy mushrooms. Central regions, such as Tuscany, are known for pasta made from semolina flour; lentils and chickpeas; pork and lamb. Down South (Calabria, Sicily), fresh produce is key – tomatoes, peppers, lemons, artichokes, garlic and eggplant. This is where you'll also find that North African influence in spices like bergamot and saffron. And, of course, plenty of fish fresh-pulled from the surrounding seas.
The key is authenticity, and today's diners seek regional dishes that go beyond the generic. Italian food is at its core a fresh, local cuisine," says Lorenzo Boni, Corporate Chef for Barilla America. "Ingredients that grow or are raised in an area will be found on the plate."

Israel's Former Foreign Minister and Kadima Party Leader Joins Top TAU Think Tank
Thursday, October 11, 2012
Tzipi Livni will research Israel's international stature at Institute of National Security Studies
Tzipi Livni, former Foreign Minister and head of Israel's Kadima party, has joined the Tel Aviv University faculty as a researcher at the Institute for National Security Studies. In addition to heading up a research project on Israel's international stature, she will also be working closely with other INSS experts, writing articles and organizing conferences.
Her main focus will be the perception of Israel in the United States, Europe and Asia. The work could compliment efforts by the Foreign Ministry, said Livni, who notes that Israel's main challenges abroad are primarily related to governmental policies. The continued Palestinian conflict, which has the biggest impact on Israel's image abroad, is one example where stalled or failing diplomacy has contributed to the isolation of Israel from the rest of the world.
"We all know that the delegitimizing of Israel internationally harms the country and restrains our military operations," Livni said. "The more legitimacy you have, the easier it is to be able to carry out necessary operations. It must be recognized that this is part of Israel's national security." The project will use modern technology and social networks as tools to improve Israel's image.
Though she left politics in May of this year, Livni is still active on the world's political stage, recently meeting with UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon, CNN's Christiane Amanpour and other top American journalists on a trip to the United States. A spokesperson for the Institute said that "the fact that she chose to join the team at INSS illustrates INSS's position as Israel's premier strategic think tank."
