Several of Italy's most famous place-specific culinary traditions are from this region, including Parmigiano Reggiano cheese (named after the provinces of Parma and Reggio Emilia), Parma ham, and balsamic vinegar of Modena. The region's capital Bologna is a national shrine to the culinary arts as well as the home of one of the world's oldest universities. Emilia and Romagna are two historical areas that are conjoined in the modern region. Emilia is the larger of the two, including Bologna and the lands to the west. Romagna is the eastern coastal section, including the important cities of Ravenna and Rimini. Emilia Romagna is best known for its effervescent Lambrusco-based wines, and there are a few denominations that focus on these. The leading ones are a trio in the province of Modena in the center of Emilia Romagna. These denominations form a continuous area, with Lambrusco Grasparossa di Castelvetro DOC surrounding the city of Modena, Lambrusco di Sorbara DOC just to the north, and Lambrusco Salamino di Santa Croce DOC farthest north, reaching almost to the Po River. These three zones are each the home of a different member of the Lambrusco family of grape varietiesnamely, Lambrusco Grasparossa, Lambrusco di Sorbara, and Lambrusco Salamino. More or less overlaying the trio is Modena DOC, a larger denomination that also produces mainly Lambrusco-based wines..

Spintor-Fly®) to Control the Cherry Fruit Fly in Emilia-Romagna (North Italy) in 2010 and 2011 MG
160 Reviewed Papers Field trials on adulticide bait (spintor-fly®) to control the cherry fruit fly in Emilia-Romagna (North Italy) in 2010 and 2011 MG. Tommasini1 and S. Caruso 2 Abstract In Emilia-Romagna Region (North Italy) trials to identify new strategies for the control of cherry fruit fly have been carried out. The aim was to find an alternative to the active substances commonly used until last years (e.g., dimethoate, phosmet) in Integrated Pest Management but at risk to be excluded from the market due to E.U. PPP revision, and to identify an effective way to control cherry fruit fly in organic farming. For this reasons field trials have been performed in 2010 and 2011 to evaluate the efficacy of a Spinosad-based bait adulticide (Spintor-Fly®) against Rhagoletis cerasi L. in cherry orchards. The results obtained were positive in both years. Spintor-Fly ® proved to be very effective to control the pest. An extension of its use in open field is awaited. However, its use on a large scale could be limited by its low persistence (it has to be applied at least weekly), poor rainfastness and phytotoxicity on the treated areas although widely tolerated. For these reasons new formulations of this experimental product developed to mitigate the negative aspects as mentioned above are awaited to be evaluated. Keywords: Rhagoletis cerasi, cherry fruit fly, control, Spintor-Fly. Introduction In the last years in Italy the control of cherry fruit fly (Rhagoletis cerasi L.) has become more complex due to the low availability of pesticides. As it is known, following the revision of European products (reduction RMA), dimethoate is no longer usable and phosmet showed problems of phytotoxicity on different cultivars in different contexts (Caruso & Boselli, 2011).

Debunking Rhaeto-Romance: Synchronic Evidence from Two Peripheral Northern Italian Dialects

Evidence from Two Peripheral Northern Italian Dialects Simone De Cia1 and Jessica Iubini-Hampton2 1 University of Manchester, GB 2 University of Liverpool, GB Corresponding author: Jessica Iubini-Hampton ([email protected]) tp://doi.org/10.3828/mlo.v0i0.358. This paper explores two peripheral Northern Italian dialects (NIDs), namely Lamonat and Frignanese, with respect to their genealogical linguistic classification. The two NIDs exhibit morpho-phonological and morpho-syntactic features that do not fall neatly into the Gallo-Italic sub-classification of Northern Italo-Romance, but resemble some of the core characteristics of the putative Rhaeto-Romance language family. This analysis of Lamonat and Frignanese reveals that their con- servative traits more closely relate to Rhaeto-Romance. The synchronic evidence from the two peripheral NIDs hence supports the argument against the unity and autonomy of Rhaeto-Romance as a language family, whereby the linguistic traits that distinguish Rhaeto-Romance within Northern Italo-Romance consist A corrigendum relating to this article has been published at ht of shared retentions rather than shared innovations, which were once common to virtually all NIDs. In this light, Rhaeto-Romance can be regarded as an array of conservative Gallo-Italic varieties.

Lama Mocogno, in the Heart of the Mountains
LAMA MOCOGNO, IN THE HEART OF THE MOUNTAINS Lama Mocogno is an italian municipality of 2683 citizens in the heart of the mountains of Province of Modena, in Emilia Romagna, in the middle of a land whose ancient name, Frignano, reminds of the presence of Ligures Friniates, a people of celtic descent, according to Dominique François Louis Roget de Belloguet and others historians and anthropologists. The main acheological remains of that time consist in ancient inscriptions on the megalythe called Ponte Ercole (Hercules Bridge) or Ponte del Diavolo (Devil’s Bridge), a rock with a singular natural bridge shape in the woods near Lama Mocogno, whose extraordinary characteristics gave life to legends and tales. Scoltenna valley, photo taken from Lama Mocogno Lama Mocogno is at an altitude of 842 metres above sea level, on a ridge parting two valleys: Scoltenna valley and the river basin of Rossenna. The names of both rivers are etruscan, linked to the domination of that ancient people coming from Tuscany, before the roman conquer. Hercules’ Bridge (or Devil’s Bridge) Archeological excavations, made in last decades, permitted to find roman coins, ceramic fragments, bricks and tiles, mainly in Hercules Bridge area, next to Mount Apollo (Monte Apollo, or Poggio Pennone) and near the high plateau of “Piane di Mocogno”, at around 1200 meters above sea level, known in the past as “Piana delle Are” (Plateau of the Altars) allegedly in reason of the presence of pagan shrines. Piane di Mocogno, once a place for sheperds and horse-breeders, is now a well renowned cross-country skiing centre (Centro Federale FISI Lama Mocogno), dominated by Monte Cantiere (1617 meters).

Environmental rehabilitation of dismissed quarry areas in the Emilia Apennines (Italy) based on the exploitation of geosites Mauro Soldati, Paola Coratza, and Vittoria Vandelli Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia, Dipartimento di Scienze Chimiche e Geologiche, Modena, Italy ([email protected]) The landscape modifications induced by human activity in the past 50 years, due to quarrying in the catchment of Rio della Rocca (Province of Reggio Emilia, northern Italy) and plans for its environmental rehabilitation, are illustrated. The study area is located in the northern Apennines margin, specifically in the municipality of Castellarano, and is characterised by a great variety of abiotic environments and high biodiversity. As regards the geological aspects of the area, the main lithological outcrops consists of yellow sandstones belonging to the Epi-Ligurian Sequence (Upper Eocene - Lower Oligocene) and grey clays (Lower Pliocene - Lower Pleistocene) of the marine units of the Apennine margin. From a geomorphological viewpoint, the landscape evolution of this valley has been deeply influenced by the presence of rocks with different mechanical behaviour, gravitational and rainwash processes and, more recently, human activities. The latter have played a fundamental role in modelling the physical landscape of the area in recent times. In the Sassuolo area (Province of Modena), very close to the study area, there is the largest tile making district in the world, which was developed during the ’60s and ’70s of the 20th century, partly thanks to the wide availability of clayey raw materials with suitable technological properties.

Wines by the Glass —
The Town Company menu draws from a range of historic and cultural inspirations that have come to shape the Kansas City experience as we know it today. This includes a commitment to local ingredients and handmade items from our very own KC makers. The wine program is a continuation of that path, with a focus on indigenous varietals, complimented by exemplary expressions of those grapes from around the winemaking world. It is a reflection on the importance of agriculture and how farmers, vineyards and winemaking traditions have come to shape the way we learn about and enjoy wine. The bottle selections are listed according to body style. As you descend through each section, the gradients will guide you in correlation to the weight of the wine. Here at The Town Company, we believe the dining experience is enhanced by a natural progression of temperatures, textures and colors. We encourage you to explore new sensations while also staying true to what you enjoy. - All wines come from organic, biodynamic and or/sustainable farming practices. - - All wines are produced from hand picked grapes. - - All wines are produced with minimal intervention. - - All wines use indigenous yeasts. - WINES BY THE GLASS — ALTESSE/MONDEUSE Franck Peillot, Montagnieu, Bugey, France NV 15 LAMBRUSCO DI SORBARA Famiglia Carafoli, L’Onesta, Emilia-Romagna, Italy NV 12 MELON DE BOURGOGNE Domaine de la Pépière, La Pépie, Muscadet Sèvre-et-Maine, Loire Valley, France 19 13 MACABEU Rexach Baques, La Mina, Penedès, Spain 18 15 CHENIN BLANC Thistle & Weed, Duwweltjie, Paarl, Western Cape, South Africa 19 16 VERMENTINO Troon Vineyard, Applegate Valley, Oregon 18 14 GAMAY NOIR Hollyhock Lodge, No.
