Idle Reduction
IdleBox Toolkit
IdleBox is a toolkit of print products, templates, presentations, and information resources to assist with idle-reduction projects for fleets with light- and medium-duty vehicles. IdleBox tools can be used to educate and engage policymakers, fleet managers, drivers, and other decision makers about the benefits of reducing idling.
Get started using the IdleBox Toolkit.
Idle reduction describes technologies and practices that reduce the amount of time drivers idle their engines unnecessarily. Reducing idling time has many benefits, including reductions in fuel costs, engine wear, emissions, and noise.
Drivers idle for a variety of reasons, such as to keep vehicles warm, operate radios, or power equipment. Sometimes drivers idle for no reason at all. Each year, U.S. passenger cars, light trucks, medium-duty trucks, and heavy-duty vehicles consume more than 6 billion gallons of diesel fuel and gasoline—without even moving. Roughly half of that fuel is wasted by passenger vehicles.
Idling can usually be reduced without compromising driver comfort or vehicle equipment operations. Learn about:

TOMORROW JULY 18 @ 5 pm I'll be signing copies of the Our Valued Customers book at New England Comics in Allston MA. So come on down and meet the ape who draws your 5th favorite webcomic! All the details are HERE!
And a reminder! I'm also doing a signing TONIGHT JULY 17 @7pm at the COOP book store in HARVARD SQUARE in Cambridge MA. all the details are HERE.
I'm also incredibly awful at dealing with such overwhelming feedback, so I'll just say that I am glad you're all appreciating my silly work and I've never once regretted making this blog. As I have nothing for a giveaway, I'll take a bunch of requests tomorrow (will write a post about it) and make some sort of recommendation list for brilliant folks you should follow.
Deleted sad/frustrated post replacing with: I am officially a college graduate.
In My Other Life as a National Geographic Writer…
…not true. But I have just won their Young Writer's Competition, and am being published in this month's issue! Very exciting!
You can read my piece here, and read more of my travel writing on my Hong Kong blog.
Back in the New York Groove and have a mountain of email to reply to. Got some stuff to announce but everything has to wait until I get some work done. Pretty stoked to mention the new projects locked in…that actually pay!
Last night an hour after I got back I dragged @crankbunny to China Town to get mah dumplin's awn! They're like boobies filled with tasty soup and pork! Heaven.
Gotta clean my place for the arrival of my hipster lazer pal Amanda from LA. She's gonna occupy my couch this week and drag me along to catch the Refused. Oh and we collaborated on my skull clock last year.
So if I owe ya an email it's coming sometime today. Apologies.
And the kids that guessed the art print (damn you)…I'll announce something about that soon and let ya know when they ship.
Dear internet, today I got married to my dearest darlingest Sophia, an endless source of love & inspiration, a person I admire in so many ways I'd need to buy the entire tumblr to list half of them.
I realize that I owe an apology to the Internet, mainly for my insistent whinings of the past & promises 'dying alone.' It's been getting better for quite a while and many of you must've noticed some shift in broman's mood department. In fact I had a real-life encounter with one of my tumblr followers who accused me of 'softening' and 'losing it.' Oh well.
There's a good deal of other, less significant changes in my life including a new 10hr/day day job and a new project that I'm not going to talk about until it's done (most of my real-life friends already know all about it because I can't keep my face-shaft shut). A few of these things are driving me insane with exhaustion (often physical too), but now for the first time in my life I have clear motivation to keep drawing, working and cartooning. Above all, when I come home from work I no longer dive into the pillow & violently cry myself to sleep, but allow myself to be cushioned softly and gently and deary dear, it's so wonderful!

Thank you, guys. Its not about the fake numbers of "follows" or "hits" or "likes." But it is such a wonderful feeling to know that a few of you out there really dig this like I do. Your feedback + messages have been sickeningly supportive. So, very seriously, thank you, guys.

Sin City babe Jessica Alba likes her coffee with a side of Lulu Frost. The actress/business owner was spotted in Los Angeles wearing our beloved Plaza Collection - the Letter "H" for her two daughters, Honest and Haven, and the Victorian Plaza Bracelet with an "8,1,1" representing the birth years of her daughters.
source: www.dailymail.co.uk
We first spotted Taylor Swift in our Plaza Letter 'S' Necklace last week when the celeb posted a photo to her personal Instagram account. We weren't the only ones excited about the picture, seeing the Internet was abuzz with talk about Taylor's caption. Taylor wrote, "Usually this S represents 'Swift' but today I'm wearing it because SELENA IS 22!!!!" Apparently the comment was a gesture of goodwill meant to mend a recently rocky relationship with Selena. Looks like the meaning behind our Plaza Collection has been taken to a whole new level!
Look of the week
Who doesn't love GIRLS? We were thrilled to see one of our favorite cast members, Jemima Kirke, celebrating on the red carpet adorned in Lulu Frost. She looked like a goddess in our Galactic Earring (shop here) and vintage Cut-Steel cuff (shop here). We can't wait to see more of her chic vintage wardrobe in season 3.
Look of the week
We love Alicia Key's short hair, especially paired with our Stella Earring. She always looks chic and effortless and her recent appearance on the Today Show was no different. We couldn't think of a better Lulu Frost representative. Shop here.
Look of the Week
We're excited to announce our newest Lulu Frost for J.Crew collection, Harvest Moon. The Compass Rose necklace above is part of the collaboration and we couldn't have been more thrilled to spot it on Willow Lindley of Refinery29 during New York Fashion Week. See more of the collection here. (Photo credit: Bek Andersen)
We love seeing how Olivia Palermo styles Lulu Frost, especially during New York Fashion Week. She layered our longer Solar Pendant with a shorter statement necklace for a very pulled together look. Shop here.
We're happy to see our La Boheme Turban making an impression on the blogging community we love so much. One of our favorite's, Liz of Late Afternoon, paired a breezy off-the-shoulder dress with this particular turban style. Both statements will keep you cool on hot summer days.
One of our favorite bloggers Toshiko Shek of It's Not Her, It's Me shows us how to rock our La Boheme turban in 4 different ways! See Toshiko's post here and get our La Boheme Turban here.
Wendy of Wendy's Lookbook shines in our Burst Statement Necklace
We have a new girl crush. Meet Sally and Molly, the bloggers behind A Piece of Toast. The stylish girls are based in Texas and are long time fans of Lulu Frost. They have a chic and classic style and are some of the sweetest girls we've met. Thoughts of summer weekend trips crossed our mind when we saw how they styled our Nomad earring. See more of their look here ya'll!
Is this not the chicest interpretation of our Poetry necklace you've ever seen? Our new artist obsession is Blair, behind Blonde Lasagna. She brought this piece (inspired by Nancy Cunard) to life on this watercolored bombshell. We really can't get enough!
Look of the Week
The most recent NY Fashion Week was a hit for brand and fashion bloggers alike. Liz, of Late Afternoon, charmed the tents with her monochrome suit and Absinthe necklace by yours truly. We are taken aback by her presence and flattered by her jewelry selection, of course!
Our Psyche Collage Earrings are a strong fit for this statement graphic eye, don't ya think? Refinery 29 picked this mod maven as one of their 7 "foxy" makeup looks. Although her sultry eyes are quite a focal point, we can't help but stare at her sparkling ears!
As designer Lisa Salzer says, "A great necklace does the talking for you." Our Lulu Frost x Glamour necklace definitely speaks to us on Glamour Magazine Accessories Editor, Maria Dueñas Jacobs. She threw on a messy bun and comfy blue sweater to complete this effortlessly chic look that we love.
British songstress Ren Harvieu dressed to kill in our Artemis collage necklace and a head full of dark roses. We love this all black look, especially with a pop of red lip. Her style is just as breathtaking as her voice.

Ferrari and its stakeholders and executives (past and present) seem hell-bent on gaining control of Formula One and all it's worth. First came the election of former Ferrari CEO Jean Todt to the head of the FIA, which governs Formula One. Then more recently came reports that Exor – the Agnelli family trust that effectively owns Ferrari – was part of the consortium led by News Corp looking to buy into the sport's commercial rights. Now further details have emerged adding the Mubadala Development Company as a member of the same consortium.
Mubadala is a company whose assets have recently been closely intertwined with those of Ferrari's. The company is owned by the government of Abu Dhabi, where the Ferrari World theme park stands. Until recently, Mubadala also owned part of Ferrari itself, its logos featuring prominently on the team's cars and uniforms (as did Abu Dhabi's national airline Etihad, also owned by the royal family). But even since the shares were reacquired, Mubadala remains (alongside the Ferrari family) a large shareholder in Piaggio Aero, the aerospace company chaired by Pierro Ferrari (Enzo's son and vice-chairman of the namesake automaker) and whose planes, incidentally, the Scuderia flies from one grand prix to the next.
Of course, once again, none of this appears to be going anywhere since the current owner CVC doesn't appear eager to sell. But if it did, hypothetically speaking, Mubadala might be a more suitable candidate, much as CVC sold to the rights to the MotoGP bike series to Bridgepoint (another investment company) before acquiring Formula One.

This season when the Yankees win their 43rd game it will be the 9,500th in the history of the Highlanders/Yankees Franchise.

|Summary: A PPTP server daemon.
PPTPd, Point-to-Point Tunnelling Protocol Daemon, offers out connections to pptp clients to become virtual members of the IP pool owned by the pptp server. In effect, these clients become virtual members of the local subnet, regardless of what their real IP address is.

Security Basics
mailing list archives
Here's a good starting point:
The NSA puts out it's CAE (centers of academic excellence). Most of
these schools have master's programs in Infosec. I'd stray a bit from
the schools that have a 'commercial' feel, and go more towards those
that have a stronger reputation as a University. You're more likely to
get a stronger set of tenured professors.

Anti-Spammers Infiltrate Private Online Spam Clubs
simoniker posted more than 10 years ago | from the spy-in-the-house-of-spam dept.411
Angry_Admin writes " Spammers are now trying to find out which antispammers have infiltrated their ranks and are sharing "sensitive" info with fellow antispammers. According to the story at The Register: 'Online spammer forums like the Pro Bulk Club the Bulk Club and bulkmails.org have been gatecrashed by activists from organisations like Spamhaus. Steve Linford of Spamhaus said spammers know this already but they don't know who amongst their number is working for the other side. In theory the members-only forums of these sites is accessible only by invitation and only to individuals who have a proven track record in spamming. Apart from playing with the paranoia of spammers, the undercover investigation cast light on the latest spammer techniques.' Hopefully the spammers aren't that bright and the antispammers stick around long enough to bring them down."

The tack-welded C-notch was positioned back in the car and everything fit as intended. The top plate was trimmed so it just meets the top of the original chassis 'rail. Note also how the top plate is slightly narrower than the outside-to-outside width of the vertical pieces, offering a decent "V" between the two for good weld penetration.

(via Conditioning Research)
Our next Ramp Up group class begins next week, 9/26! We'll be meeting on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday at 500 pm. For more details, or to register for the class, please click here.
Workout of the Day
Ring Dip version of 'Lynne'
5 rounds, max reps
Ring Dips
Pullups (strict)
East Valley CrossFit will be hosting the annual Barbells for Boobs fundraiser on October . This is a benefit for Mammograms in Action, which provide breast cancer screenings for low-income and uninsured men and women. Definitely a worthwhile cause, and a fun workout.
Click the banner for more information or to register.
Thanks to everyone who came out for FGB6 on Saturday! Despite enforcing movement standards (which lowered everyone's score), we had some good numbers put up! And extra congratulations to those first-timers who tackled their very first FGB.
Here are a couple of articles that I've come across recently that you may be interested in checking out.
The first is collected wisdom from Dan John, so of course it's worthwhile. It is also on T-Nation, so it's not necessarily something you want to open up around the family. Part 1, Part 2.
The second is 'How women should train', and lays the smack down on Tracy Anderson. Which is always a good thing.
Workout of the Day
Just a reminder that we will be attending the Fight Gone Bad 6 fundraiser at Core CrossFit on Saturday. If you would like to register or donate, you still have time!
1030 Class is cancelled this week!
We will run a few heats at 0830, and then head downtown around 930 or 10. Several local gyms are sending folks down, so it should be a good time. Hope to see you there!
Workout of the Day
1 mile run
5:00 rest
1 mile run
Snatch work!
Barski Snatch (3 reps from high hang) x 3
3 position Snatch (from hip, knee, floor)
Snatch Pulls
Snatch Deadlift x3-5 (x4)
But it sure feels nice right now! We're taking advantage of the break in the heat to get outside and stretch our legs and lungs a bit. Feels good, in a bad sort of way.
And keep an eye out for some sharp new photos (no pun intended) from resident photo-hobbyist Matthew W. on the website. Sneak peeks below. Thanks again Matthew!
[caption id="attachment_4045" align="alignnone" width="332" caption="Jimmy"]
Workout of the Day
4 rounds
400 m run
Front Squat x 12 (135#/95#)
1:00 rest
Thanks for the input everyone! I tried to accommodate as many requests as possible on this order, but you know that old saying about not being able to please everyone all the time. Hopefully, we got enough variety that everyone will be able to find something that they like.
For the guys, we got a few of the poly/spandex dri-fit-type shirts like the one that was at the gym. We also went with a 50/50 fitted T shirt from Nextlevel, couple of different colors.
Ladies, the overwhelming majority of Tank Top voters wanted a racer back style, so we went with the same Bella tanks we ordered before. We also got a T-shirt style from Nextlevel.
We had several suggestions (regular tanks, long sleeve Ts, hoody Ts, etc.), but I'm not sure about the demand. One thought would be to load up some of our artwork to Cafepress, and you would be able to order whatever you wanted one or two at a time. The downside of that is that you'll be paying a lot more per item, and it takes a few weeks. Any opinions?
Workout of the Day
Clean and Jerk
Focusing on pulling the bar from the floor and the split jerk
Reps Gone Bad
Still prepping for the FGB6 fundraiser coming up! In this version, you select a number of repetitions (15, 20, or 25) and complete that number at each station before rotating to the next. 3 rounds, with 2:00 rest between rounds.
Here's a cool video of George St. Pierre training at a gymnastics facility. I doubt anyone here will be surprised when he talks about how hard gymnastics training is, and how it is helping him in the UFC. That's a bad man right there, folks.
Workout of the Day
Pullup Ladder (1 rep, rest. 2 reps, rest. etc.) Max reps in 20 min.
Skill work: Handstand progressions, Bridge progressions.
Finished up with a spin on the Benchmark 'Annie':
50, 40, 30, 20, 10 Double Unders*
10, 20, 30, 40, 50 Situps
*Every time you make a mistake on the jump rope portion, add 1 situp to that round.
Here's your chance to chime in.
We have a few different options re: type of shirt, etc., for the ladies. (For the guys, I think you're just going to be stuck with what I buy.)
So, ladies: fitted T's or Tanks? Wife beaters or racer-back? Color preference?
I've got some mock ups of the artwork at the gym (basically the Logo at the top of the page here), but let me know if you're dying one way or the other as far as what we get.
Speak now, or forever hold your peace!
Workout of the Day
4 rounds, alternate between
Single-leg hip extension x 8-10
Front Squat x 6-8
Finished up with some pushing. With a running clock, start each round 2:00 after the start of the previous round (0:00, 2:00, 4:00, etc.)
weighted dips x 6-8
Box Jumps (step down) x 6
pushups (release hands at top and bottom) x 10
If anyone has any photos that they would like to send us from this weekend (or any other time, for that matter), we have a cool new system for submitting. Just email the photo to email@example.com, and it will be uploaded to the site (after moderation). It's just that easy.
Thanks to all the photographers out there. But remember, keep it classy—we're a family site!
First of all, thanks to everyone who came out for the 31 Heroes workout today. Blood was shed, but as a friend said, "remember who you're doing it for". Again, thank you to everyone who participated, cheered on, BBQ'd, and helped clean up.
And checking in with our resident Super Hero, Sara and her brother finished in 7th place in the 'Toughest Competitor Alive' competition at the World Police and Fire Games. If internet postings can be trusted, they were the highest placing team from North or South America!
Pretty great weekend, any way you slice it.
REMINDER: We will be holding only one group class on Monday, at 10 am. Power Hour folks are welcome to come around that time, I will probably be staying until around 11:30 or 12 to finish the workout.
Final word on tomorrow's 31 Heroes workout:
I'll be showing up around 0800, intention is to start the first heat around 0830. We'll run heats every 35 minutes or so as needed. We have a few confirmed teams that will be closer to 1100. I'd like to wrap it up by noon.
We will BBQ afterwards, please feel free to bring a dish or something to share. BBQ will run from whenever we start until the last people leave.
Feel free to bring along friends and family, but keep in mind that it's supposed to be warm tomorrow, and there will be a lot of people doing a lot of things. Please keep an eye on kids and dogs.
Finally, here's some motivation for your Friday afternoon.
Winner of the women's Hammer Throw competition (note the helmet) at the World Police and Fire Games in New York. Less than a meter from the record.
"Yeah, I'm wearing a Thor helmet. So What?"
Workout of the Day (8/31)
Front Squat x 8-12 (x4)
Kettlebell & pushups to finish
Workout of the Day (9/1)
Pavlov's Pullups*
Gymnastic skill work (handstand and bridge progessions)
(Pavlov's Pullups involve a grease the groove approach to pullups and a running timer. Every 4:00 the timer sounds, drop whatever you're doing and immediately do as many perfect pullup reps as possible. Continue with normal activity until the next round.)
Make sure your pullups are Ido Approved (tm). Check out this article (on facebook).

Topics: Health Reform, States, Medicaid, Marketplace, Uninsured
Jul 08, 2013
With the Oct. 1 deadline for launching markeplaces approaching, states struggle with health law implementation issues.
The Washington Post: In Connecticut, A Struggle To Launch Obamacare
At a monthly board meeting of Connecticut's health insurance exchange, members of the standing-room-only crowd got a reminder that they, too, were behind schedule. The insurance marketplace they were working on nights and weekends won't be completely ready on time. "It is highly complex, it's unprecedented and it's not going to be smooth," Kevin Counihan, chief executive of the state's exchange, Access Health CT, told the group. That's why Connecticut — like other states across the country — has lowered the bar, doing what it can in the time it has left before the health-care law's major programs are launched Oct. 1 (Kliff, 7/4).
Los Angeles Times: State Insurance Chief, Health Exchange Differ On Kids' Dental Care
Backed by children's health advocates, California Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones is challenging the state's health insurance exchange over the way it wants to provide children's dental benefits. At issue is whether pediatric dental care should be part of the basic health insurance package sold through the exchange or sold separately. The exchange has proposed selling it on a stand-alone basis to parents (Terhune, 7/5).
Dallas Morning News: Community Groups Gear Up For Health Insurance Exchanges
Come Oct. 1, the health insurance exchanges created by the Affordable Care Act will start open enrollment for people to shop for health insurance. Before that, however, begins a huge undertaking in educating consumers about the exchanges, also known as the health insurance marketplace, and about the act itself. Many Americans remain unaware of, or confused about, the health care law, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation, a private, nonprofit foundation that explores health care issues. Some believe Congress repealed the law and some believe the U.S. Supreme Court overturned it. But Congress hasn't repealed it, and the high court left its basic provisions standing (Yip, 7/7).
Des Moines Register: Doctor Visits Likely To Rise With New Health Plan
Iowa clinics and hospitals should expect a wave of chronically ill people when a new state health insurance program starts in January, a report suggests. The report from the Public Policy Center assesses the health of people now on IowaCare, a limited health care program for poor adults. IowaCare covers about 70,000 people, most of whom are expected to switch next year to the new Iowa Health and Wellness Plan, which will provide broader insurance coverage to roughly 150,000 poor Iowans (Leys, 7/6).
The Miami Herald: After Healthcare Law Delay, Medicaid Expansion In Florida Remains In The Shadows
The Obama administration's decision to delay the Affordable Care Act health insurance mandate on employers has lessened some of the leverage advocates of expanding Medicaid in Florida had on lawmakers, but it won't end the debate (Klas and Mitchell, 7/4).

Ketones...Good? or Bad?

Today I had to do a urine test and the results came back showing that I have 150 (3+) Keytones. My doctor left for the day, so I wasn't able to ask if this was a good or bad thing. I don't even know if that's alot or just a little. Does anyone know? I am anxious to find out.

Are you on a low carb diet? Are you diabetic?

Discuss it with your doctor but given the fact you had bypass two weeks ago, the results are probably what your doctor expects. Anytime a patient goes on a high protein, very low carb diet, this can and does happen. For example, Lindora weight loss centers use ketone sticks to make sure you are in ketosis which is what they use to judge how well you are sticking with their diet.
Good luck!
Good luck!
Normal Results
A negative test result is normal. When ketones are present in the urine, the results are usually listed as small, moderate, or large with these corresponding values:
Small: < 20 mg/dL
Moderate: 30 - 40 mg/dL
Large: > 80 mg/dL
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
What Abnormal Results Mean
A positive test may indicate:
- Abnormal nutritional conditions
- Anorexia
- Fasting
- High protein or low carbohydrate diets
- Starvation
- Disorders of increased metabolism
- Acute or severe illness
- Burns
- Fever
- Hyperthyroidism
- Nursing a baby (lactation)
- Post-surgical condition
- Pregnancy
- Metabolic abnormalities, including uncontrolled diabetes or glycogen storage disease
- Vomiting frequently over a long period of time

If you're eating high protein / low carb, then ketosis means that your body has run out of instant energy to use (carbs) and is now burning your fat for fuel. In this context - it's a good thing, a VERY good thing! You may notice some strange odors in your breath and around your body, urine, poo. Your may taste metal in your mouth in the morning. This will go away in a couple of weeks, but drink lots and lots of fluids to flush the ketones (a byproduct of ketosis) out of your body and these symptoms will dissipate.

Lombardy, Emilia-Romagna suggestions?
- jen kalb Mar 3, 2008 05:33 PM
I will be travelling in Northern Italy late June - early July, with 10 days at a conference in Gardone and about a week travelling to/from there, probably From Milan. We've never visited Milan so this will probably mean a couple of days in that City, and have spent little time in the north outside of the Veneto... Thinking about Bergamo, Mantova and one or more of the cities in Emilia-Romagna as stops. We have been in Parma but these other places will be new to us. Ive been poring over Slowfood, Italy for the Gourmet Traveller, etc. - we tend toward well done regional food as opposed to highly innovative stuff - any suggestions of especially rewarding stops???. Im hoping for some wonderful long lunches!
On October 10, 2001, R.W. Apple wrote a lengthy article about an hostaria in the Emilian countryside named Da Ivan. After reading the article, I have always wanted to visit the place, but have never had a chance. You can find the article at nytimes.com and decide for yourself whether it is worth a visit.
It is located in Fontanelle, not too far from Parma.
re: DavidT
Cremona is also a town well worth visiting. I was there 10 years ago, so I am having a hard time remembering the names of places where we dined. I remember having some very good meals and seeing some first-class food shops there. Check your Slow Food guide for recommendations.
Don't miss Mantova. There's great food shopping and a few restaurants that seem right up your alley. I really liked Trattoria due Cavallini. For Emilia Romagna you should book your table at Giusti now. Don't overlook Ferrara which has some good traditional restaurants as well. The only downside is that the specialties of this region tend to be heavy and aren't the best summer fare but I'm sure you'll deal.
In Quistello near Mantova--L'Ambasciata. Near Modena- Clinica Gastronomica di Arnaldo(awesome Bolliti Misto cart). Also Dal Pescatore
thanks much for all of the recommendations. I am sure I am overthinking and over-researching this trip majorly. what ever happened to just letting things happen, just seeing an appealing place and walking in, especially in Italy?
Our itinerary is Busseto, Parma, Rubiera (near Modena), Mantova, Gardone Riviera (10 days with local side trips) Bergamo (with day trip to Milan) and, I think Oleggio nr Malpensa for last night.
I havent yet reserved or planned for the following so I could still use suggestions:
Sunday lunch/dinner in or near Parma
Monday light lunch Parma/Reggio Emilia area (we are at Arnaldo that night and the following)
Mantova - Wednesday dinner
in Mantova or between Mantova and Gardone (s.w. side of Lake Garda) - Thursday lunch
Gardone/Salo/Brescia area lunches
other good lunch destinations, both sides of Lake Garda, Bardolino etc reachable by boat or car
Trento - Sunday lunch
Bergamo (Monday and Tuesday nights)
Milano - Tuesday lunch
thanks again!
re: jen kalb
We had a truly memorable dinner 2 years ago at La Rucola, in Sirmione on Lake Garda. One Michelin star but we thought it was worthy of higher praise. Beautifully presented food, bold flavors, great reasonably priced local wines (if they still have Bradisismo, order it), fine service. They are also open for lunch, but I'm not sure if they are closed on any days. The website does not list hours.
re: jen kalb
We were just in Mantova on Monday and my friend's colleague who grew up there recommended Fragaletto (sp?) on Via Academia. The place was packed with locals (it was a holiday here), the food was fantastic featuring lots of Mantovan specialties and great wines too. Everything was delicious, I can't recommend it highly enough.
re: stkorn
thanks for the recommendation on Fragoletto. Its come up on lists elsewhere too. What did you have that you liked??
re: jen kalb
Just got back from Milan. My two favorite lunches were at:
Latteria San Marco (Via San Marco 24).
Trattoria degli Orti (Via Monviso 13).
Both excellent, though a little more expensive than the average trattoria.
You may wish to buy a copy of the Slow Food Italy guide now printed in English: Osterie &Locande D'Italia A Guide to Traditional Places to Eat and Stay in Italy by Slow Food Editore. Great guide to inexpensive quality places to eat. Real Chow material.
re: Biroldo
thanks for the reccs. Just one day to visit Milan and I am wondering whether we will even sit down for a meal....and where.
I really like the slowfood guides. When I compared my english book side by side with the italian food only edition, I realized there were fewer restaurants and winebars in the former than the latter.
re: Biroldo
I love this book. it's got a permanent spot on my nightstand.
If you want to make the drive up to the eastern side of Lake Maggiore, then check out the tasting menu at Il Sole di Ranco. It's a nice hotel, too. You'll sit outside, overlooking the lake, and have one of the finest meals of your life. When I was there last, it ended up costing about $120 per person for the 12 course tasting menu. Absolutely incredible.
Also just back from Milan and the Bologna area. In Milan, I highly recommend L'Assassino, Via Amedei 8
Da Giacomo, 6 Via Pascale Sottocorno
Hosteria Borromei, Via Borromei 4 (lovely covered patio for lunch)
Nabucco, via Fiori Chiari 10 (near the Brera)
Do NOT go to Al Pont de Ferr, Ripa di Porta Ticinese 55 in the Navigli which is listed in Slow Food. I had read many good reviews, but it must have changed hands as the food is horrendous and the service is to match.
re: drbbaldwin
I completely agree with the bad news about Al Pont del Ferr at Navigli.
We just got back from a long weekend in Bergamo, and I thoroughly recommend La Colombina, an osteria serving rustic food just outside the old city walls (on Borge Canale, I think, near the Colle Aperto). It was the best place we ate in the city - don't miss the stuffed pasta (casoncelli) which is a speciality of Bergamo and served pretty much everywhere. We also had a great salume platter, which came with the obligatory polenta (I don't much like polenta and thought my visit to Lombardy might change that - it didn't!).
Also fun for a very cheap lunch is the Cooperativa Citta Alta, just off the main street in the old city. At lunchtimes it's full of Italian office workers, and in the evenings there are lots of families until about 10pm, when it fills up with students. Incredibly good value and tasty food.
We also liked Da Franco (also on the main street). Huge portions and pizzas from a wood-fired oven. We didn't have time to go, but Sole on the corner of Piazza Vecchia also has a good reputation.
The only place we didn't like was Da Mimmo - a very well-established restaurant which was packed to the rafters when we went on a Saturday night. We had a reservation, but were put on a terrible table in a corner, and virtually ignored by our waiter. They were very busy, but we weren't made to feel very special. Half the staff were surly teenagers, which didn't help. The food was actually quite good, but it just goes to show how important atmosphere is.
Oh, and Bergamo is stunning, by the way. They're having a heatwave in Italy at the moment (34C on the day we left), so if you're going in the near future don't plan too much!
For Milano, no problem if you don't have time for lunch in a restaurant. There is a great little place near the Duomo that does these amazing "panzarotti" which are like little stuffed pizzas with a variety of fillings, but my favorite is the simple one with mozzarella, basil, & tomato. It's called Luini and is on a side street off the Corso Vittorio Emmanuele (which is the main shopping street that runs alongside the Duomo). The side street on which it's on runs between the big Rinascente dept. store & galleria manzoni (i think). If you're there around lunch time, you'll see a long line of locals. There's no where to sit inside...it's just counter service, but everyone just sorta hangs out & eats. It's unforgettably yummy & cheap!
I agree with GreedyGirl in that Bergamo "Citta Alta" is a stunning place! Some of my husband's family is from that area and we have always had good food experiences there. Like greedygirl said, you must try the casoncelli pasta...it's so yummy...little stuffed pasta with butter, parmesan, sage, pancetta & cheese! There are a couple of really good places walking along the main street in the old town, just before you get to the main piazza. Sorry, but I can't remember the names...I think you might see the Slow Food sticker in the window, however.
re: msmarabini
Oh, it is so very nice that you know Luini !!! oh, yes, I completely agree that its panzarotti are great and a smart back-up solution to avoid lunch and prepare brain and body for a very delicious dinner.
As we're talking about it, but not because it is a big deal, the name of Galleria is Vittorio Emanuele.
By the way of Manzoni, a very central street, nice to walk along, is Via Manzoni, whose starting point is from the square where there is the famous Scala.
OK we are back and Im going to put my trip report here, probably in pieces. Our itinerary was a circle out of Milan, with stops in Busseto, Parma, Rubiera (incl Modena) Mantova, Gardone Riviera, and Bergamo (we ended in Oleggio but did not plan ahead and consequently could not get in at our desired last night stop the cat and the wolf there) This was LOW season and in a heat wave so ideal in some respects but not others.
Our first meal was at Il Cavallino Bianco, in Polesine Parmense, in the Bassa Parmense ("Lower Ground" near Parma. http://www.acpallavicina.com/cavallin...
This is the low-lying steamy area near the Po where the legendary Culatello is made. "The Horse" is a long standing Inn on the banks of the Po that serves primarily its own pork production and also offers fish from the river. We ate in a tavern type area (I think its call Il Tipico di Casa Spigaroli)- they also have dining rooms and outside eating areas - it looks like for many local parties. In addition to being recommended by many writers this place was a favorite of the local parma hounds writing on tolasudolsa.com so we chose it over da Ivan and al Vedei, the other main contenders for this meal., though there were many - dozens of dining choices for this area of devoted eaters of the pig.
Well, we ordered a first course of a selection of their meats, tagliatelle with culatello, tortelli with chard and cheese and secondo of storione (sturgeon). When the meats came out, with some dry-ish bread (a theme of the region) we knew we had a problem, because it was a huge board just covered with cuts of culatello, along with 5 other cured pork products of their production, Iincluding strolghino and mariola, two soft textured salami products and I think coppa. I immediately went back and cancelled one pasta course because we just didnt have the capacity to handle this much food. Lesson - order 1 for 2 when ordering these salumi plates. The culatello was sweet and delicious, itself well worth the trip - the tortelli were lovely and delicate, sturgeon was perfectly cooked with some vegetables and herbs not the least wooly or dry like some of these firm fish can be, very good. We drank their house lambrusco, which was I believe made on the property, and finished with coffee and a glass of their very fine sburlon (quince) liqueur. boy did I rue not buying a bottle to bring home but I wasnt ready to start lugging souvenirs after the very first meal. thanks to Fred Plotkins book for giving us this perfect intro to our trip.
Busseto is a lovely little old town, the homeplace of Verdi of course. We stayed but did not eat (despite its good rep) at the Il Due Foscari hotel there - in the town are a couple of places for more casual eating that looked really promising - Sapori di Bassa ("Taste of Lower") is a food shop specializing in cheeses and the local meats that is right off the main square, facing the side of the church, a big favorite of the local website, but just closing as I arrived on Sat night. There is also a casual restaurant on the main street not far s. of the square called I think Verdiana where crowds of locals were eating platters of the local cured meats with pickled veg, green sauce to dip their dry bread in. both looked like they would have been good alternatives if we had wanted more than a drink that night.
Day 2 was a Sunday so we headed for Parma because of closing day-hour issues irrelevant to a food site. Summer Sundays in Italy are for spending in country restaurants over leisurely meals, but we had to see the cultural sites that day.. Luckily, Trattoria del Tribunale was open and serving so after deathmarching around finding other places closed, we were able to rest and enjoy a pleasant meal including a delicious plate of salumi including the parma ham this time, gnocchi with asparagus (fine gnocchi but not my fave sauce) and a sweet and sour country salad with fried porky bits, rather like a very good spinach salad. We drank a nice bottle of malvasia, the local white with this and enjoyed it.
Stayed that night at Country House (Agriturismo) Leoni, recommended by Hornvixen here and elsewhere. Very nice people, and we took and very much enjoyed their tour of the cheese factory and farms the next day (Up to 25E per person tho, for the tour and a cheese and wine snack after). The factory was one of the highlights of our trip.
the sunday night we were not very hungry but they opened up the shop on the farm and sold us a very fine salami and a bottle of their lambrusco for next to nothing. With some scrounged up bread and an apple this made an excellent inexpensive dinner. the salami accompanied us through our journey!
re: jen kalb
Oh, dear Jen, I read your notes about Cavallino Bianco and I could not agree more. In few hours, I am leaving from my home to go thereat, Polesine Parmense, as at 7pm, at Antica Corte Pallavicina, it will begin the "Festa del Culatello" with guided tour to the farm and then a very delicious dinner at Cavallino Bianco prepared by the chef Massimo.
I wish that tourists can understand and feel better how great and smart place it is to taste the best Italian cooking.
trip report part 2 - Rubiera (Arnaldo's Clinica Gastronomica)
Our third stop was at Arnaldo's/Aquila d'Oro, a comfortable ancient inn in the pleasant town of Rubiera, about 15 mi west of Modena. The hotel is a great civilized stop the restaurant is extraordinary, As others have explained service is partly on carts and partly a la carte. For us, the goal was to get a sampling of the classic emilian dishes, and this meal served wonderfully for that. You have a choice of ordering particular dishes or sampling from the carts. Torta fritta (or gnoccho frito), fried dough that is a little like pie crust is first served, along with bread. I thought it odd to serve this cold, and separately from the antipasti, but thats the way they do it.
Here's a link to their site - http://www.clinicagastronomica.com/ri...
One gets the feeling the menu is basically unchanging and perfected
We chose an antipasto sampling to start, which gave us some of everything on the massive antipasto cart, including stellar prosciutto di parma and other salumi sliced in front of us, as well as samples of cheeses, a mushroom/celery/parm salad and other items including the reggio specialty erbazzone, a flat greens-stuffed bread. Mostly wonderful, just a couple of items fell short of deliciousness for me.
For a second course, we decided to order and share a "tris" - a plate with three homemade pasta specialties - we chose the gnocchi with butter and parmigiano-reggiano, their specialty, spugnalato, a delicate and creamy layering of ethereal pasta besciamella, mushroom sauce and cheese, and tagliatelle al sugo d'estivo, delicate noodles in a subtle and difficult to analyze vegetable-based sauce. The gnocchi were merely very good gnocchi, but the other two dishes were uniquely interesting and the spugnalato just wonderful in its combination of flavor and delicate texture.
After these large courses we moved onto the secondi - my husband ordered (this was a 93F day!) the bollito misto, which of course I could share - I called over the vegetable cart and ask for them to compose me a salad and was delivered a fine large salad made with balsamic vinegar (NOT Tradizionale) - there was really not much else in the way of cooked vegetables on that cart, by the way - mostly in the realm of crudites, and some steamed green beens which the next table ordered with the same treatment as my salad.
Now, that bollito misto was fascinating - the broth I believe was made with capon , and what we were served was pieces of beef, tongue, zampone cured ham, chicken and some bready dumpling, - this was accompanied by their honey mostarda, a fiery regional fruit sauce flavored with mustard, and green sauce. this last surprised me with its fresh delicate flavor, and lacked the sharp flavors I had expected. It was very good, and I particularly loved the tongue - this from a person who has not sampled tongue since childhood, with its wonderful beefiness. The mostarda was particularly good with some of the richer meats, we were converted.
At this point we were extremely "complete" however I decided to look at the dessert cart - I was fixated on the pear with zabaglione that michelin mentions, so we had that, and some cherries, in season and regional. Very good but not worth the added stress on my digestive tract!
I failed to mention the very highclass lambrusco they offered as their house wine, the extremely cordial service and welcoming, convivial atmosphere. we were surrounded by all sorts of groups, including a group of workmates and a couple of older men who held hand with the very well dressed "daughters" who accompanied them.
the one thing I greatly regret was not sampling their cappelletti in brodo - I had a fixed idea that I would not want these, with their hot soup, but then saw them delivered to every table. I then rationalized that I could try the dish next day at Giusti's but they were not on offer there. If you go to Arnaldo's, dont make that mistake!
re: jen kalb
Arnaldo clarification - we were converted to a liking of mostarda - it was a great condiment with rich meat. I didnt quite get the green sauce - it was good food in itself, would have been good with bread, but it didnt really set off the meat.`
The next day, lunch at Giusti in Modena, another fascinating town. We got our res online, I printed out directions on viamichelin, no problem getting there at all. 3 tables occupied, all outoftowners on our day. Im going to be brief because I lost a carefully written post on this - the salumi platter with torta fritta/gnocco frito was terrific - all the meats were delicious/top notch (tho all the meats we had everywhere in emilia were top notch - here, the heat and extra grease of the gnocco frito brought out an extra degree of flavor.
We had two primi, both fresh cut pasta, both with lightly tomatoey sauces - fine but a little disappointing after all the anticipation of this meal- my shrimp sauce reminded me of some of the tomatoey seafood sauces of venice. Capelletti were not on offer. We then shared a cold pork dish that was exquisite, along with a salad. The pork was extremely tender came apart in strings, probably shoulder. It was cooked with fresh bay leaves and other whole spices that gave it a lovely fragrance. We ate this lovely dish very slowly - it was not browned, and seemed like it might have been braised in oil or its own fat.
Dessert was a slice of their famous cherry tart (cherries were in season and Vignola just down the road). It was extremely intense, jammy and tart - the pastry was just a subtle casing, not a flaky, buttery foil to the filling. Not very sweet, not very rich, and lacking in salt. All in all, not a pastry for American tastebuds. Some gelato would have set it off nicely (and I am a lifelong opponent of ice cream with pie.Probably should have gone for the gelato with balsamic, as the neighboring table did.
As a result of this large lunch, we had to give up our second dinner at Arnaldos - we dined on some lovely grapes, bread and a bit of our salami and beer (for husband). I also regretfully gave up my plan to visit the Osteria di Rubbiara and their Acetaia the following day - another large, long lunch would have just killed us. So, regrettfully we left the beautiful, civilized province of Emilia and travelled on to Mantua.
re: jen kalb
ah! You made it to Arnaldo's, and it's great to have your insights! I too, remember how difficult it was to eat so much (but also so very difficult not to)
I just wish we made it to Giusti's, but hopefully next summer. Thanks for sharing jen.
Next stop Mantova - an ancient and interesting town. We stayed at a B&B in the centro for our one night - cuisine in that corner of Lombard features fresh water fish from the Mincio, horse/pony/donkey dishes, rice and the grana padana cheese produced nearby.
We chose Ochina Bianca for our meal - a slowfoodish place gone upscale, it specializes in local cuisine and the very fresh highgrade seafood that seems to be the default choice for locals eating out and wanting a change from their local cuisine in both Lombardy and E-R. We started with lucchio in salsa, pike served in a sweet and sour, cold preparation. It was very delicious and refreshing. We then diverged on the second course - Husband ordered a pasta with asparagus, and seafood, I went for the risotto alla pilota con salsicca, not a risotto per se but a glistening mountain of perfectly cooked vialone rice grains mixed with delicious fresh sausage fragments and perhaps butter, very simple and excellent. For our secondo we shared an order of fritto misto, very well done and offered as their specialty. It was a very good rendition but nothing we could not have had in Venice, Amalfi, etc. I regretted that pick. However, the locals were making similar picks - an adjoining table ordered platefuls of luscious looking steamed scampi, off menu. I wished I had been sitting at that table!
re: jen kalb
Thanks for suggesting Ochina Bianca. My husband and I celebrated our third wedding anniversary there in July and loved it.
re: snyders1
Im so glad to hear it and congrats on your anniversary! What did you eat?
I htink there is a lot of good eating in Mantova.
Ive set up a separate item for our stay on Lake Garda
re: jen kalb
After Garda, we moved on through Brescia (great town, time for only a quick salad-pannini lunch to Bergamo. One of our wonderful experiences of the trip was observing a group of students, sitting in a streetside cafe, consuming large platters of prosciutto and toasting and singing to a new "dottore" with bottle after bottle of prosecco. what great joie de vivre and cameraderie. Fair number of bengalis and other mideastern/asian folks in this town (its very prosperous) - even saw a bengali grocery with snake gourd and bitter melon.
We rented an excellent apartment on Borgo Canale for our two nights in Bergamo http://www.lafavorita.info . There is a B&B explosion in Bergamo now because due to its proximity to MIlan, there are cheap flights down from UK and elsewhere in No. EuropeWe were a bit unfortunate in our timing because Monday and Tuesday are closing days for most of the town's restaurants and La Columbina on our street was closed for vacation. HOwever, given the fact we were still recovering from our Garda eat-a-thon this might not have been so bad. We ate in both nights. The components for our meals were purchased in the Citta Alta where there were several great stores. First, the bakery, Tresoldi (I think it has two outlets at the two ends of the main street up there as well as in the lower city) offered several fine breads. DO NOT go to the spiffy looking forno nearby with personal pizzas, etc - the bread there is cottony and totally bogus.
We purchased our meat, cheese and wine in two excellent shops -
L'Alimentari di via Tassis in new (a spinoff of an older family store in the lower town) its just a little ways from the Piazza Vecchio going toward Colle Aperto
http://www.lalimentari.it/. the young owner spoke quite good english and sold us some lovely cheeses and a good local wine (very fine selection.
At Gastronomia Mangili, Via Gombito 8, the lovely owner sold us some very nice culatello and cheese, and a good quality sbrisolana cake which my office mates enjoyed the following week. also a nice wine selection. there are a couple of good fruit stores along the Via Gombito/Via B. Colleoni - we enjoyed the one toward the Colle Aperto end, where we bought some amazingly full-flavored tomatoes (I think the campanian kind) lobloing with a point on the end, some excellent porcini to take home and fine grapes.
We splashed out for a lunch at Colleoni dell'Angelo - which is a very fine restaurant indeed - http://www.colleonidellangelo.com/ITA... -
At this point my memory is shaky - I dont remember every dish, but they served a very nice amuse of burrata with a green sauce; my husband' would barely give me a taste of potato and funghi porcini cake with black truffle sauce - we made the mistake of ordering a whole fish in a salt crust - it was delicious in a bland, plain fish way, but cost the earth - much better to have ordered the pricy but cheaper (I think 35E) and wonderful looking seafood plateau we saw at an adjoining table or one of the meat dishes. I couldnt resist dessert - fantastic rasberries brulee - grilled under heavy cream with the sugar crust - no eggs - and served with a white chocolate sauce which I added sparingly. I am still trying to reverse-engineer this dish - superb. Petit fours and coffee followed. A wonderful meal, but I do regret that fish and the depressing effect of the bill (which I did not see) on my husband. As the other post up this thread further indicates, Bergamo is very worth a visit foodwise.

Traffic accidents: Traffic accidents are as stressful as they are dangerous, and often require the services of a tow-truck. IAG works with the tow-truck industry to improve service standards. Preferred tow-truck drivers now meet certain standards of service, commit to probity checks and offer customers mobile phones to contact friends or family. The drivers, badged with IAG brand names, also provide digital cameras to take photographs of damage at the site. This assists the claims process and subsequent repairs.
Reversing Visibility Index: Following the deaths in NSW of 17 children in three-and-a-half years from reversing cars, the Group produced the world's first Reversing Visibility Index. This measures how well a driver can see out of the back of a car. Using a laser device, the Technical Research Centre developed a method of measuring visibility from the driver's seat. While new technology such as sensors can help prevent tragedy, in narrow driveways it was found that sensors provide limited extra protection. IAG's research suggests there is considerable scope to improve sensors' performance in detecting objects directly behind the car. IAG is discussing these issues with both car and accessory manufacturers.
101 Crash Sites: Since 1999, IAG brands have been running a research and media campaign to raise awareness of the most dangerous crash sites. This campaign advocates changes in the traffic infrastructure to reduce accidents at these sites. Its success is reflected in the dramatic reduction in accidents in Miranda, NSW. Thanks to the Group's suggestion to replace the Miranda five-ways roundabout with traffic lights, the number of collisions has fallen from 222 in 2002 to 13 in 2003. The Group also retained traffic engineers to report on solutions for three sites: Great Western Highway, Church Street, Woodville Road and Western Expressway, Parramatta; Epping Road and Lane Cove Road, Macquarie Park; and Western Expressway (M4) and Mamre Road, St Clair. The recommendations on low cost (warning lights), medium cost (breakdown lanes) and high cost (widening bridges and roads) solutions were provided to the Roads and Traffic Authority, with an abridged version provided to the media.
Preferred repairers: The Group's preferred smash repairer network is an important service option for its car insurance customers. With over 800 preferred smash repairers nationally, IAG brands choose these repairers according to their expertise, service skills and their ability to maintain levels of service.
The smash repair industry is a key supplier to the Group, and the two have worked together to develop the Risk Radar. The Risk Radar is the Group's first sustainability product. It's an online learning tool available to all smash repairers to help them improve their environmental management and safety performance. IAG's preferred smash repairers receive the Risk Radar and subsequent face-to-face training at a reduced rate. In addition, commercial underwriting factors have been taken into account, to reduce insurance premiums if smash repairers can show an auditable improvement in their practices. IAG's key community partner, St John Ambulance Australia, also offers first-aid kits at a reduced rate through the Risk Radar.
Car theft: On average, a car is stolen somewhere in Australia almost every five minutes (source: Crimesafe 2003). This costs the community millions of dollars a year, results in serious environmental issues like dumping and causes stress and inconvenience to the victims. The Group's CrimeSafe program produces information for customers on how to choose a secure vehicle on the basis of car-theft scores. These scores are determined by the Group's Technical Research Centre, which rates cars according to their level of security. The Group also offers customers advice on where to park to minimise car theft or vandalism through Car Park Security Ratings.
The Group commits significant resources to help customers understand and minimise risks by making informed decisions when buying a vehicle. One of the largest contributions to this research is Group's Greensafe car profiler, which examines the safety and environmental performance of all motor vehicles sold in Australia.

Take it on faith!
For reading & meditation - Proverbs 6:16-26
"My son, keep your father's commands and do not forsake your mother?s teaching." (v.20)
The real truth about sex and sexual satisfaction is difficult to see or understand outside of marriage. Many young people say to me: "Why all these negatives in the Bible concerning sex before marriage? Isn't sex a beautiful thing?" I say to them: God doesn't give His prohibitions because sex is a bad thing; they are there to protect us from doing the good and beautiful thing in the wrong context. Within marriage, sexual activity is the doing of the right thing in the right place. It is only when you are within marriage that you begin to see the point and purpose of all those do's and don'ts. Christians are people, or should be people, who take God on trust. There's not much point in confessing to be a follower of Christ if you don't believe what He tells you in His Word and change it to suit your convenience. Passion has always been a problem, but wisdom and passion must be properly related. You must become acquainted with the principle of deferred pleasure which is one of the first evidences that you are becoming a mature person. An infant desires immediate gratification and will cry and howl until he gets what he wants. When he grows older, and becomes more mature, then the desire for gratification is brought under control. The concept of deferred satisfaction is a vital one for every young person to get hold of, for without it there can be no real maturity. You must learn to deny yourself now in order to experience the right thing in the right way in the future.
Father, You will have to take me by the hand lest I be lost in the jungle of immediate satisfaction. If I get off the track here, I will find myself in a jungle that gets more and more tangled every moment. Help me and hold me. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
