6 N O T E P E R V I V E R E PERGOLESI STABAT MATER Una serata di musica e letture a favore dell A.N.I.B.E.C. (Associazione Nazionale Italiana Bambini Epatopatici Cronici) per sensibilizzare l opinione pubblica sul trapianto epatico pediatrico e sulla donazione degli organi. L Orchestra Note per Vivere diretta da Paolo Vivaldi eseguirà il capolavoro di Giovanni Battista Pergolesi, lo Stabat Mater. Attraverso le note del maestro di Jesi, il dolore di Maria diviene universale e abbraccia tutte le madri che vivono la malattia di un figlio. Un dolore che non conosce età né tempo, di cui si fa testimone Francesca Soligo con il racconto Il filo sottile letto da Erica Banchi su musiche di Paolo Vivaldi. Parole e melodia si fondono fino a divenire un'unica soluzione sublime e potente come il gesto della donazione degli organi. La serata sarà arricchita dalla partecipazione straordinaria di Luca Barbareschi, Sebastiano Somma, Alan Sorrenti e dalla pianista Gilda Buttà che eseguirà con l orchestra brani inediti composti da Vivaldi per la colonna sonora del film Maternity Blues (regia di Fabrizio Cattani). Quarto appuntamento con la TUTTI PER UNO solidarietà a cura di Tutti per Uno Onlus. L associazione, nata nel 2006 e presieduta da Domenico Riitano, chirurgo plastico e ricostruttivo dell Ospedale Israelitico di Roma, con Nino Frassica come testimonial, offre un contributo concreto per migliorare le condizioni fisiche dei bambini meno fortunati. Quest anno la serata si propone di raccogliere fondi per aiutare Radu, un ragazzo rumeno affetto da tetraparesi spastica; un caso davvero molto complicato che necessita di più interventi chirurgici con la speranza di aiutarlo a migliorare e a diventare un po più autonomo. La serata, che sarà presentata da Maddalena Corvaglia, vedrà avvicendarsi numerosi amici dell associazione, tra i quali Renzo Arbore, Maurizio Battista, Nino Frassica, Lino Patruno, The Blues Willies, il Mago Heldin, il percussionista Giovanni Imparato, Carlo Luberti, Emanuele Ruvio.

From its northernmost border regions that are practically Austrian to the deep south, landscape, architecture, and tradition change drastically, offering the experienced visitor enough variety to keep traveling in Italy for a lifetime. Here are places in Italy that are truly off the beaten track. Although not intended as an itinerary but more a list of suggestions, in fact you could follow the google map below and create a onemonth driving itinerary using this article. Friuli: Pordenone and San Daniele The Friuli region borders with Austria to its north and Slovenia to the East. Its full name is Friuli-Venezia-Giulia and it s an autonomous region with special statute that recognizes its unique history and geography. This unforgiving mountainous terrain alternates with plains, is criss-crossed with rivers, and was dominated for most of the early modern period by Austria, which left a distinctly foreign and well-organized imprint on the area. Throughout the Renaissance, BY BOOTSNALL.COM while central Italy and Venice developed that consistent artistic style known for perspective and harmony, the isolated nature of many northern Friuli towns meant that a more medieval style with local c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s dominated. Probably the most famous artist from this area is Giovanni Antonio Pordenone, whose last name refers to the town of his birth. Follow in his footsteps to see his canvases and frescoes in the cathedrals of Pordenone, nearby Spilimbergo, and San Daniele. The historic center of Pordenone is extremely pleasant, its main shopping street flanked by covered archways and populated with well-dressed citizens who frequent warm cafés serving heavy local specialties like the saleti, a cookie made with polenta flour. Step out from under the covered spaces, though, because otherwise you ll miss one of the town s most unusual features: painted house facades that are some of the bestpreserved examples of a forgotten Italian tradition. Head north on the highway (an easy day trip if you re staying near Pordenone) CONTINUED ON PAGE 5 Dear Readers, The quest for content is never complete! Have you been on a recent trip?

10 How to Obtain Your Tax Refund Capital gains and losses Almost everything owned and used for personal or investment purposes is a capital asset. Examples are a home, household furnishings, and stocks or bonds held in a personal account. When a capital asset is sold, the difference between the basis in the asset and the amount it is sold for is a capital gain or a capital loss. If you received the asset as a gift or inheritance, refer to Publication 551 for information about your basis. You have a capital gain if you sell the asset for more than your basis. You have a capital loss if you sell the asset for less than your basis. Losses from the sale of personaluse property, such as your home or car, are not deductible. Capital gains and losses are classified as long-term or short-term. If you hold the asset for more than one year before you dispose of it, your capital gain or loss is long-term. If you hold it one year or less, your capital gain or loss is short-term. To determine how long you held the investment property, begin counting on the date after the day you acquired the property. The day you disposed of the property is part of your holding period. Capital gains and deductible capital losses are reported on Form 1040, Schedule D. If you have a net capital gain, that gain may be taxed at a lower tax rate than the ordinary income tax rates. The term "net capital gain" means the amount by which your net long-term capital gain for the year is more than the sum of your net short-term capital loss and any long-term capital loss carried over from the previous year. Currently net capital gain is generally taxed at rates no higher than 15%, although, for 2008 through 2010, some or all net capital gain may be taxed at 0%, if it would otherwise be taxed at lower rates. There are three exceptions. See Publication 17 for details. If you have a taxable capital gain, you may be required to make estimated tax payments. Refer to Publication 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax, for additional information. If your capital losses exceed your capital gains, the amount of the excess loss that can be claimed is the lesser of $3,000, ($1,500 if you are married filing separately) or your total net loss as shown on line 16 of the Form 1040 Schedule D, Capital Gains and Losses. If your net capital loss is more than this limit, you can carry the loss forward to later years. Use the Capital Loss Carryover Worksheet in Publication 550, to figure the amount carried forward. Additional information on capital gains and losses is available in Publication Expenses, and Publication 544, Sales and Other Dispositions of Assets. If you sell your main home, refer to Publication 523, Selling Your Home. Deemed Sales by Expatriates. If you give up your U.S. citizenship after June 16, 2008, you may be treated as having sold all your property for its fair market value on the day before you gave up your citizenship. This also applies to long-term U.S. residents who cease to be lawful permanent residents. For details, exceptions, and rules for reporting these deemed sales, see Publication 519 and Form 8854.!

11 FEATURE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) Italy Off the Beaten Path CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 to San Daniele del Friuli, as far into the mountains as you d want to go. The name is synonymous with Prosciutto di San Daniele, considered the country s best cured ham. In June the Aria di Festa sagra transforms the town into a tasting center, but at any time of year you can arrange visits to local artisanal producers who will offer samples. Ravenna On Italy s Adriatic coast, Ravenna is known for its mosaics, the tradition of which thrived in the fifth and sixth centuries and still continues today. Eight of its buildings have been added to the UNESCO World Heritage List so it s not exactly unknown, but rarely is Ravenna included in regular tourists itineraries (it is, however, a big pilgrimage destination). Ravenna was the stronghold of Byzantine rule in Italy under the emperor Justinian (527-65); the architecture and decoration of Ravenna s churches are thus of the Eastern type, modeled after Constantinople. The most important church is San Vitale the apse mosaics that show Emperor Justinian and his wife Theodora and their attendants are reproduced in most art history survey textbooks. San Vitale is a centrallyplanned church, very different from the basilican tradition of western Christianity that we see in Ravenna s other famous churches (such as Sant Apollinare in Classe and Sant Apollinare Nuovo) and in fact different from anything else you ll see in Italy. The fourth-century Neonian Baptistery is also decorated with mosaics and it sparked a collective vision in the 1930s: the famous psychoanalyst Carl Jung and his traveling companion discussed and distinctly recalled a bluetoned mosaic of Peter sinking that they later realized didn t actually exist. The strong emotions that connect present, real events and past or subconscious images can be yours, too, with a visit to this magical city of colors enclosed in little glass tesserae. Urbino Urbino is not easy to get to. There is no train station, few buses, and it s served by a small mountain road. If you think it s isolated now, you ought to have seen it in the fifteenth century, which is why it s all the more remarkable that an important Renaissance court was established here. Under Federico da Montefeltro, an important mercenary soldier with a particular love for books, this court was the model of perfection on which Baldassare Castiglione based his The Courtier, a kind of how-to book of social niceties for upper-class men and women of the time. The Palazzo Ducale that was the seat of this court can now be visited, and is in fact the main reason to come to this town. It looms above the visitor parking lot, built into the side of the mountain, but despite seeming fortified from this angle, its façade embraces a wide piazza in the center of town. The Palazzo is now the National Gallery of Urbino and the Marches (the region in which it s located) and it houses some real jewels of Renaissance art. Don t miss the paintings by Piero della Francesca, Raphael, and Paolo Uccello. But the real treat is the building itself that allows you to imagine yourself transported back 600 years. Note the Renaissance courtyard and well, the wood-intarsiated doors and sculpted fireplaces, the tiny studiolo and the private chapel. If you arrive at Urbino early enough in the morning, you can have lunch here and move on to your next stop (it s hardly known for nightlife). Lunch ought to consist of a crescione (or cresce), a flaky wrap served with your choice of filling (though traditionally with stracchino, a soft cheese). Grotte di Frasassi Underground in the Marche region is the Frasassi caves [13], which are the closest you can get to being on another planet while still being on Earth. For safety reasons, regular tourists are accompanied on group visits that take 70 minutes and include a 1.5 kilometer walk on easy terrain. More adventurous types can pre-book a two- or three-hour trail equipment and guide provided. The temperature in the grotto is 14 degrees Celsius year-round, making it a cool place in the summer (pack a sweater!). The guides are well-informed and tell stories about key areas in the grotto each dramatically-lit room has individual characteristics that piqued the imaginations of the speleologists who discovered them. See stalactites and stalagmites of impressive height and width and unusual shapes, like the so-called organ pipes, or the Sword of Damocles which is a 7.4 meterhigh stalactite. Wonder at the largest underground room in the world, the Abyss of 2 million cubic meters it s hard to grasp just how huge this is without something recognizable in there for scale. (Check out a video here [14].) Consider a hike or at least a picnic in the 9000 hectare regional park in which the grottoes are located. Otherwise, there isn t a whole lot to see in the immediate vicinity, though on your way out you might stop at the seldom-visited Benedictine Abbey of San Vittore; there s also a museum of archaeology and paleontology if you haven t had enough geographic oddities for the day. From here, explore some of the Marchegian hilltowns Jesi, Cingoli, or Recanati or visit nearby Fabriano, the first place in Italy to produce paper on a large scale. This article is an excerpt.

Install smoke alarms inside each bedroom and outside each sleeping area. in the basement (on the ceiling at the bottom of the stairs) and in the attic if it is used as a living space.

The American actor, who speaks fluent Italian, appears on the big screen in Manuale d Amore 3. The first two Manuale d amore films proved successful, making 14 million and 19 million Euro in Italian theaters. Writer and director Giovanni Veronesi hopes that De Niro s role in the third episode of the romantic series will create a box office hit. The film focuses on three love stories taking place at the same time. De Niro stars in one of the vignettes, playing a divorced professor living in Rome. His love interest? None other than the stunning Monica Bellucci.! Originally published by ItalyMag.co.uk Milan to Host Epic Caravaggio Exhibition Since 2008 there has been a remarked resurgence in the interest of Caravaggio s art with a series of high-profile exhibitions all over the world.

15 Anna s Italy Tips: Adding Cell Phone Minutes One way to add minutes to your cell phone is using a BANCOMAT (Italian ATM). This can be easily done at the BNL ATM machine inside the Embassy. You can also go to a Tabaccheria, (a shop where they sell cigarettes and stamps) and ask to have your phone RICARICATO. In Italian, the phone card that adds minutes is called RICARICA, which can be confusing since ricaricare= recharge. If you make the mistake to translate add minutes or aggiungere minuti in Italian, it could be misinterpreted and they might think you want to change Bulgari Brand Sells for 3.7 Billion Italian luxury brand Bulgari has sold for a tidy sum. The designer jewelry firm has been acquired by LVMH for 3.7 billion Euros. LVMH, a French Luxury group, was willing to pay the high price to obtain Bulgari s rival share of the high-end jewelry market. LVMH already owns 60 of the world s leading brands including Louis Vuitton, Givenchy, Fendi and Sephora. Bulgari was established in 1884 and was family-controlled until this week s sale. The Italian brand hopes to be able to benefit from LVMH s large marketing and distribution network. It is only fitting that the sale of the iconic Italian brand was finalized over dinner in Rome. The Bulgaris plan to maintain their jewelry house s personality and independence under the new French ownership. Despite seeing the Italian designers lose their autonomy, the new deal means that in addition to the 3.7 billion payday, the Bulgari family will become large stake holders in LVMH s fashion empire. BY ANNA BENSON your phone plan! In some tabaccherie you simply need to give them your phone number and it will be done automatically, in others and in supermarkets as well, they will give you a card with a pin number on it and you will have to do it yourself, which is not very simple if you don t speak Italian. Remember that if you are in Italy, you pay for the phone calls you make and not for those you receive. This means that if you have zero minutes/zero balance you can still receive phone calls. Quick Tip from Anna: Safety Vests Some of you may not be aware that it is mandatory to have and wear a high visibility reflective safety vest (giubbotto catarinfrangente) before exiting your vehicle in case of accident or if your car brakes down. Also bikers need to wear it after sunset. If you do not have one, you can purchase it at the Commissary. SAT Prep for High-Achievers Washington D.C. s premier SAT prep company will hold two courses in Rome this spring. Outstanding test results (Ask for our list of parent references.) Detailed written critiques of each student s writing exercises Each course limited to 12 students Courses will be held in Parioli. Visit honorstestprep.com to view course schedules and register. sat@honorstestprep.com About Trastevere Trastevere, a classic spot on the far bank of the Tiber (hence the name), has for the past decades attracted a cluster of Romans and foreigners that love walking around the little medieval alleys and enjoy the dozens of restaurants, pubs and cocktail bars spread around the neighbourhood, especially on weekends. Among the many touristy bars, there are classic spots as well as some pleasant new places. Hordes of youngsters can be found at Freni e Frizioni (Via del Politeama 4), Il Baretto s summer garden (Via Garibaldi 27f) and amid the topsy-turvy decor of Pucci Bar (Piazza Mastai 1) for their aperitifs. One can find typical Roman pizza, thin and crunchy, at Ivo (Via S. Francesco a Ripa 158), Panattoni (Viale Trastevere 53), better known as `L Obitorio (the morgue) because of its marble tables, and Dar Poeta (Vicolo del Bologna 45). There is also traditional Roman cuisine in `proper taverns, such as Enzo (Via dei Vascellari 29), Lucia (Via del Mattonato 2b), Paris (Piazza S.Callisto 7a), and at the refined L Antica Pesa (Via Garibaldi 18). Via Benedetta has recently become a Mecca for real ale thanks to the pizzeria Bir&Fud (at no. 23) and the pub Ma Che Siete Venuti a Fà (no. 25), which has been voted the world s Best Beer Bar in 2010 in a specialist magazine. Sophisticated cuisine, so much so as to place its restaurants in the city s circle of top dining places, can be found at the Glass Hostaria (Vicolo del Cinque 58) and an aperitif bar, restaurant and food & wine shop is available at the Enoteca Ferrara (Piazza Trilussa 41). For a touch of ethnic food there is Indonesian cuisine at Bali (Via del Mattonato 29) or Indian food at Jaipur (Via S. Francesco a Ripa 56) and Japanesefusion at Somo (Via G. Mameli 5).

16 John Paul II Beatification at Vatican No Tickets Required, So Plan Early Around 2.5 million people are expected to descend upon Rome for the May 1 beatification ceremony for the late Pope John Paul II. The Holy See announced that it will not issue tickets for the event and everyone is welcome. Seating will be reserved only for high-level delegations, such as heads of state. Since no tickets are required, we expect the ceremony to create major logistical challenges for Rome and Vatican City. The crowd will be similar in size if not larger than that which attended his funeral in In order to accommodate such a large crowd, all streets to and around Vatican City will be closed. To add to the expected chaos, Italian labor unions and organizations traditionally host a major rock concert in Rome on May 1st International Labor Day. If you are interested in attending the ceremony, we encourage you to arrive at St. Peter s Square as early as possible even up to several hours in advance and prepare for extremely large crowds and to view the ceremony on the large screens that will be placed in and around the square. Embassy Vatican will send out more guidance as the date of the beatification nears. Holy Week and Easter Ceremonies Requesting Tickets All employees and family members of tri-mission Rome who wish to attend the Easter ceremonies at the Vatican should sign up for tickets with the CLO no later than Wednesday, March 9. Employees can request tickets to the following events: April 21, Holy Thursday Chapelle Papale (commemorates the Last Supper) Basilica of St. John Lateran (N.B. This ceremony does not take place in Vatican City.) 5:30 p.m. April 22, Good Friday Commemoration of the Passion of the Lord St. Peter s Basilica 5:00 p.m. April 23, Holy Saturday Easter Vigil celebration St. Peter s Basilica 9:00 p.m. April 24, Easter Sunday Easter Sunday Mass St. Peter s Square 10:15 a.m. Pope Benedict XVI will preside over each event.

I have made it through 2 weeks of vegetarianism and I must say it ain t that bad! As with any healthy living plan, you must focus on the things that you can eat and not the ones that you can t. I have had so many fresh fruits and veggies - now my body feels great! Has anyone else decided to take me up on challenging themselves nutritionally? I haven t heard from anyone. Today I thought we could touch on some ways to help you stay disciplined with any new diet or nutritional plan. Follow these key tips and you ll find yourself successful with all your new nutrition goals Birds of a Feather Flock... You 1 know the rest of the saying. It applies in all aspects of life including your health. Associate with people who are also living healthy lifestyles. This way, you can make healthy eating part of your social calender. If you have decided that eating healthy and incorporating exercise is a priority in your life, you need to find others who are thinking likewise. Your group will support and encourage each other, and you ll find it easier to reach those goals together. Cook It and Eat It So you want to 2 gain control over what you put in your body? The best way is preparing your own food. Stop going out so much to eat. Make Breakfast. Pack a lunch. Cook dinner. It s nearly impossible to control what you are eating if you put the power in others hands. Studies show that the most successful dieters eat at home more than often than non-successful ones. Stop depending on others to provide a healthy lunch for you instead step up a make your own. (This also will leave more euros in your pocket!) I am currently accepting new personal training clients so if you re ready to stop reading about it and start living it, send me an to setup up a free consultation.

17 John Paul II Beatification at Vatican CONTINUED FROM PAGE 11 A sign-up list will be available in the CLO lounge and the coordinators will forward the list to the Embassy Vatican Protocol Assistant no later than Friday, March 11. If the Vatican does not provide sufficient tickets to cover all requests, CLO will conduct a lottery to determine who receives tickets in a fair and transparent manner. Community members may request tickets for both events. However, in the event of a lottery, each person will receive tickets for one event only, in order to ensure equitable distribution. Please note that requests must be for employees and their families only. Due to extremely high demand for these tickets, requests for friends or guests of embassy staff cannot be honored. Please remember that a request for a ticket does not guarantee one. The Holy See receives requests from all over the world and from all diplomatic communities in Rome, and gives preference to religious pilgrims. Embassy Vatican has no control over the number or type of tickets provided by the Pontifical Household. Upon receipt of requested tickets, Embassy Vatican will deliver them to the CLO for distribution. Tickets may arrive as late as 24 hours before the events; therefore, it is important to provide all requested contact information. Likewise, if you have been notified that you will receive tickets and your plans change, please advise the CLO immediately so that others may attend. This is not only common courtesy; it also could affect the Vatican s willingness to honor our requests in the future if tickets go unused. Those who do receive tickets should be aware that when attending Mass and other events at the Vatican, they are representing the United States. The Vatican expects guests to dress and behave in a manner that acknowledges the solemnity of the occasion and the presence of Pope Benedict XVI. It is essential that ticket-holders dress conservatively and follow guidelines on entrances and seating times indicated on their tickets.!!"#$%&'(%)'*+ Next Pub Quiz: Monday, March 14th 8:00 to 11:00pm Scholars Lounge (via del Plebiscito, 101/b) Reserve your tables weekly at Submitted by David Millner, x2638 FOLLOW US ON TWITTER: VENETOVIEWS Fuori di Taste - Florence Polpette di Baccalà Foodies are flocking to Florence to celebrate excellence in taste.

18 Safety Spotlight: Cell Phones & Driving Notes from POSHO: Do you know why most states in the US are passing laws against the use of cell phones while driving a vehicle? The use of cell phones while driving has become one of the main causes of accidents and deaths on the highways. The safest time to use a cell phone while driving is when you re stopped. Pull over, or wait until you reach your destination Cell phones are wonderful things that can help tremendously when out on the road. From simply calling when you are stuck in traffic to say you ll be late (and therefore reducing your stress and tendency to become an aggressive driver), to reporting a serious accident immediately. Although cell phones are helpful, they can also cause problems when driving. When out on the road and driving remember these basic safety tips. Keep Your Eyes on the Road Learn how to operate your phone without looking at it. Memorize the location of all the controls, so you can press the buttons you need without ever taking your eyes off the road. You can even practice at home. Use a Hands-Free Model They allow you to keep both hands on the wheel and you eyes on the road. Stay in Your Lane If you have to take a call while driving move to the slow lane of traffic, that way you ll only have to deal with moving traffic on one side of the vehicle. Use Speed Dialing Program frequently called numbers and your local emergency number into the speed dial feature of your phone for easy, onetouch dialing. When available, use auto answer or voice-activated dialing. Never Dial While Driving If you must dial manually, do so only when stopped. Pull off the road, or better yet have a passenger dial for you. Let the Phone Take a Message Let your voice mail pick up your calls in tricky driving situations. It s easy to retrieve your messages later on. Know When to Stop Talking A call should last no more than one minute while driving. If you call will take longer, pull off to the side of the road or return the call later. Don t Take Notes While Driving. - It s very difficult to take messages, keep your hands on the wheel, AND you eyes on the road. Don t take messages while driving. Whenever you re driving a vehicle and your attention is not on the road, you re putting yourself, your passengers, other vehicles, and pedestrians in danger. There s also a difference between driving while talking on the phone and driving while chatting with a passenger. Passengers in the car often alert drivers to dangerous situations, in sharp contrast to cell phone callers who are oblivious to a driver s surroundings. If using your cell phone is a must while driving please use it responsibly.! BY JAMES EMERY N=8%&'G=56"'VV$PH'V(..'
