The Historic District of Mazatlan, Mexico offers a veritable feast for the eyes – a rich and unique experience in color and imagination. As I walked through the little downtown district, the vibrant hues and amazing local flavor nestled within its walls, brought the alleyways alive with a kaleidoscope of color and local art. It compares to an outdoor art gallery. I hope you enjoy these beautiful walls as much as I did....

Afgezien van het feit dat het alweer de vijfendertigste maand achtereen is dat Fiat-Chrysler groeit in Canada (de langste periode ooit in de geschiedenis van de groep uit Detroit), zien we vooral ook dat 2012 een bijzonder succesjaar is, ondanks dat de meeste nieuwe producten de komende jaren nog op de markt moeten verschijnen. Fiat 474 auto’s, wat 17% meer is dan in oktober 2011. Het Italiaanse merk, dat voorlopig nogal afhankelijk is van één model, blijft dus ook in de Noord-Amerikaanse land groeien.

I don’t know about you, but I hadn’t heard about ‘cicerchie’ until my friend Eloisa handed me a bag as a going to Denmark present. Her father is a farmer, producing various kinds of lentils, peas and beans. These flat, square ones I did not recognize and Eloisa’s translation with the English word ‘pulse’ didn’t ring a bell. Yet she told me how to prepare them, and added that these dried beans are a bit like kidney beans and chickpeas only much nicer. And having tasted them I totally agree. So if you happen to come by an Italian market, where they still sell ‘cicerchie’, don’t hesitate to buy some. They will keep for ages and form the base of many nutritious and almost free meals for the entire family. According to Wikipedia ‘cicerchie’ have the latin name ‘Lathyrus Sativus’ and they are also known as wild chickpeas, grass pea, blue sweet pea, chuckling vetch, Indian pea, almorta, guixa, guaya or khesari Ingredients 300 g cicerchie 6 dried tomatoes 2 cloves of garlic 2 shallot onions 1 tbsp fennel seeds Fresh rosemary and parsley Olive oil Click for directions

Linenik steunt een Sociale Werkplaats in Nederland waar, van lege, gebruikte koffieboon-zakken, van Italiaanse koffiebranders, tassen worden gemaakt. De missie van de Sociale Werkplaats is mensen, met een achterstand op de arbeidsmarkt, de mogelijkheid te bieden zich zo goed mogelijk te ontwikkelen. Met het aanschaffen van een Italian Coffee Handbag heeft u dus niet alleen een mooie tas of uniek kado van gerecycled materiaal (Riciclando Buste Del Caffe), maar u draagt ook bij aan de plaatselijke werkgelegenheid. Ook draagt u bij aan de vermindering van de belasting op het mileu omdat een groot deel van de Italian Coffee Handbags wordt gemaakt van gebruikte zakken en van restmateriaal van Italiaanse koffiebranders.

Jij hebt een van de mooiste terrassen van Rotterdam. Dat kun je gerust zo stellen. Trattoria Borgo d’Aneto zit aan een kade in de wijk Feijenoord. Je kijkt naar bootjes op het water en ziet in de verte de auto’s op de Maasboulevard. Maar je hoort die auto’s niet. Wij zitten in de rust van Rotterdam. Wie begint nou een toprestaurant op zo’n onwaarschijnlijke plek? Wij dus. We zitten inderdaad in the middle of nowhere. Een restaurant beginnen, is nooit mijn ambitie geweest. Van origine ben ik dominee en de laatste veertien jaar promoot ik het ondernemerschap in het onderwijs. In dat kader heb ik verschillende bedrijven opgericht. Wat voor bedrijven? Ik heb een sociale supermarkt opgezet, een supermarkt voor minima, met als personeel vmbo-, mbo- en hbo-leerlingen. Verder was ik betrokken bij een cateringbedrijf, een muziekproductiebedrijf en een kopieer- en administratiebureau. Dat waren allemaal leerbedrijven. En nu dus dit restaurant.

The Italian economy may be struggling but the pan-European television series “Borgia,” which is now filming its second season in Italy, is a thriving hit on the world market. Spanning the late Middle Ages to the early Renaissance period, the show follows the famous Borgia family’s rise to power and subsequent domination of the Vatican and southern Europe’s political landscape. A winning combination of sex, violence, faith, lust and betrayal, the primarily French-German production has been sold in 85 countries worldwide. The first season follows the brutally ambitious Catalan Cardinal Rodrigo Borgia (played by U.S. actor John Doman) and his ruthless climb to become Pope Alexander VI. The second season, currently shooting, begins in 1494 and its focus slowly moves to his charismatic son Cesare Borgia (played by Irish actor Mark Ryder), the famed warrior prince who inspired Niccolo Machiavelli’s “The Prince.” Ryder said the biggest challenge has been taking his character from a whiny young boy in the first season to a “magnificent man of the Renaissance” in the second. An Associated Press TV crew visited the set near Rome, where there are twenty-four different nationalities among the “Borgia” crew. Doman, best known for his role in the U.S. hit HBO TV series “The Wire” says it’s a unique experience to work on such a multi-cultural production [...read more]

Hunto was born in 1982, in Brindisi, South Italy. He developed a love for art world at very early age. Starting to do graffiti in 1996 under the name "Hunto", the artist has been going throught different periods of characters painting styles. During his first steps, Hunto was inspired by the works of Picasso and Braque. He then moved towards Cubism and created his orginal characters style that is well known around the streets in his country. With this original style, his pieces have been published in various specialised magazines and brought him to national and international events in Italy and Europe. In 2004, the artist moved to Rome to develop his art career and began with an illustration work for a popular italian book "Bibenda L'agenda del vino 2006"....

Le crocchette di ceci e gamberi sono dei gustosi stuzzichini a base di gamberetti e ceci tritati che possono essere serviti sia come antipasto che come secondo accompagnati da qualche salsa. Le crocchette di ceci sono una golosità che rientra anche nella categoria finger food, magari da servire durante un aperitivo sfizioso con gli amici. L'impasto di queste crocchette oltre ad essere formato da una crema di ceci è insaporito anche dalla polpa di gamberetti Il composto avvolge poi un'intera coda di gambero. Questo rende le crocchette di ceci e gamberi ancora più appetitose e buone. Le crocchette di ceci e gamberi possono essere accompagnate da moltissime salse come ad esempio la salsa di soia, la senape, la salsa cocktail, la maionese e chi più ne ha più ne metta! Il gusto delicato dei gamberetti ben si sposa con quello più forte dei ceci e insieme questi ingredienti prima frullati e poi impanati e fritti vanno a formare un risultato perfetto sia nel sapore che nella presentazione.

Nelle giornate di vacanza io mi dedico alla cucina. Siccome è uno dei miei hobbie preferiti, approfitto del tempo libero senza lavoro per preparare qualche ricetta sfiziosa. Oggi è la volta della marmellata di pesche e amaretti, che utilizzerò per preparare alcuni vasetti che poi regalerò a Natale. Oggi invece ho deciso di dedicarmi una colazione speciale: cappuccino, biscotti al cioccolato, pane tostato e marmellata di pesche. Non sono tanti i giorni in cui posso concedermi una colazione come questa, quindi voglio godermela e conservare il relax di questi momenti per quando le giornate saranno di nuovo stressanti e frenetiche.

Onze liefde voor Italië geldt niet alleen de wijn, de zon en de indrukwekkende Dolomieten, Alpen en Apennijnen, maar ook hebben we een band met de digestieven en likeuren. Grappa, Sambucca, Amaretto en voor ME vooral de Limoncello! Dat Ron Blaauw goed kan koken is een understatement, maar dat hij ook de weg weet te vinden naar het zuiden van Italië, was me niet bekend. Leuk om te lezen! Al sinds 1890 is Villa Massa Limoncello in Italië razend populair. Oorspronkelijk puur als digestief na de maaltijd, wordt deze premium likeur uit Sorrento tegenwoordig ook meer en meer in recepten gebruikt. Gemengd als saus, voor het flamberen van desserts of als geheim ingrediënt in een frisse salade: Villa Massa Limoncello zorgt voor Italiaans temperament in de keuken! Villa Massa is nauw verbonden met de culinaire wereld. Ieder jaar reikt het merk de Villa Massa Awards uit in Sorrento, waar chefkoks worden geprezen om hun gastronimische kwaliteiten. Deze Awards zijn onderdeel van het Giornate Gastronomiche Sorrentine, de gastronomische dagen van Sorrento, waar de Italiaanse keuken en diens puurheid en eenvoud worden gevierd. Iets waar de filosofie van Villa Massa volledig bij aansluit door het gebruik van natuurlijke streekproducten.

De succesvolle Fiat Freemont (vooral in Italië) krijgt in 2015 een opvolger. Fiat zal tot 2014 weliswaar geen auto’s introduceren boven het B-segment, maar dit wil niet zeggen dat men het opgeeft in het middensegment, ondanks het voorlopige gebrek aan succes. Zoals we gister al schreven zal dankzij de nodige Chinese input van GAC Fiat, opnieuw de strijd -zij het op een veel rendabelere wijze- worden aangegaan in het C/D segment. Niet alleen door de invoer van de ‘Viaggio’ met vier en vijf portieren, maar dus ook met een opvolger van de Crossover Freemont.

A design student has created what might be the lightest running shoe ever made. Luc Fusaro, who is also part of the team which designed the London 2012 podium, made the shoes while a student at the Royal College of Art in London. The shoes are custom-made for each athlete, and are produced using a 3D printer. Weighing just 90 grams, they are among the lightest ever made. Fusaro thinks they could be ready for competition by the 2016 games in Rio - and even the current prototypes could shave fractions off a 100m time. "The current mass-manufacturing process only allows to produce shoes with standard mechanical properties and geometries," his website explains. "Using the opportunities offered by additive manufacturing... opens up the possibility of whole new generation of athlete-specific footwear." French-born Fusaro previously studied General Engineering at Ecole Centrale Lyon - but also competed in athletics "at a national level" for a number of years. More fine-tuning is needed - the upper part of the shoe is reportedly too stiff and more comfort needs to be added. But Fusaro said they still showcase the "unlimited potential" of 3D technology. http://www.scoop.it/search?q=3d+printing&type=topic&page=1&limit=24
