It s not everyday that you get to dress up like Kings and Queens while touring a castle. While visiting Cavernago, Bergamo we had a chance to do just that along with learning how to make traditional Italian cuisine. Our first order of business was preparing lunch, so we headed into the kitchen for our Italian cooking class. Our lesson consisted of making a full course meal including pumpkin ravioli, steak tartare and tiramisu for dessert. Everything was made from scratch, including the pasta, which gave us a new-found appreciation for the amount of preparation that goes into making high quality Italian cuisine. After devouring our Italian creations we toured Castello di Malpaga (Malpaga Castle) all decked out in fancy attire. It was the perfect way to end what was an incredibly fun day.

We have left Bergamo behind and we re visiting a castle outside in the countryside. It s called Castello di Malpaga and we are going to be taking a cooking class inside a castle. So I m going to get ready to start cooking and Sam is going to give you a tour of the castle so you can see what it looks like. So this is a family owned castle. It dates back to the 13th Century. Let me give you a tour. The first lesson of the day was to focus on dishes that take the longest to prepare, so we got started with dessert- a delicious tiramisu with a modern twist! Like that? More aggressively. Like that. So I m taking a quick break from the kitchen to tell you today s menu. We are going to be preparing beef tartare as an entree, ravioli for the main course and then tiramisu for dessert. So it should be very tasty. Let s get back to the kitchen and let s keep cooking. For our main dish we prepared ravioli, and because this is Italy the dough had to be made from scratch. There were no shortcuts here and everyone was put to work kneading and then rolling out the dough into thin layers. What are we doing over here? Rolling some pasta. It requires a lot of muscle work. More muscle than I have. Preparing the stuffing was next. We went with a vegetarian option, which was pumpkin. Smashing pumpkins. Like the bad. Hahahaha. So clever. Once again, we took no shortcuts here. Pumpkins were chopped, peeled, and then boiled, before being pressed into a paste that we used as our filling. The last dish of the day was beef tartare. I skipped out since it s not to my taste, but I was told it was very tasty. So we have now finished preparing our three course meal and we re going to go have lunch inside the feast hall which has painted frescoes that are just beautiful. So let s go in. Buon appetito! How is the food so far? It is delicious because I prepared it myself. I hardly did any work actually. The truth comes out. And now that lunch is over we get to play dress-up. Let me lead you around my castle. I am Queen of this kingdom. Once we had eaten lunch, it was finally time to tour the castle - a very exciting prospect, especially when you re dressed in Renaissance costumes. We paraded around like kings and queens, and then explored the former home of Bartolomeo Colleoni, who was captain-general of the Republic of Venice and earned quite the reputation battling neighbouring city-states. We re Kings and Queens from around the world. And winter is coming. Winter is coming. So I had a lot of fun cooking, eating and playing king for a day in a castle but unfortunately all good things come to an end and it is time for us to go back to Milan. This is part of our Travel in Italy series. We re making a series of videos showcasing Italian culture, Italian arts, Italian foods, Italian religion, Italian cuisine and Italian people.

We’re one of the select few mammals on Earth that menstruate, and we also do it more than any other animal, even though it’s a waste of nutrients, and can be a physical inconvenience. So where’s the sense in this uncommon biological process? TED-Ed describes the history and evolution of menstruation. Lesson by TED-Ed, animation by TED-Ed.

Lately Audrey and I have seen a shift in our travel preference from larger urban centers to more remote quiet towns. Coming from Milan to Chiavenna allowed us to slow down the pace of our travels and really get to experience what this quaint town situated in the Italian Alps has to offer. During the two days we spent here we had an opportunity to visit an Italian castle, a grotto restaurant, an artisan s workshop and attend the Bresaola festival just to name a few. One of the highlights was waking up early enough to drive across to Switzerland to eat some Swiss chocolate and snap a few photos of the ice capped mountains in the distance. Out of all the places I had a chance to visit in Italy I liked Chiavenna the most and would gladly return again someday in the future. GEAR WE USE Olympus OM-D E-M5 II: http://amzn.to/1OchS7t Canon G7X: http://amzn.to/1YdjsYX Olympus 14-150mm II Lens: http://amzn.to/1Y79zeM Rode Video Mic GO: http://amzn.to/1WDKtVM Joby Gorilla Pod: http://amzn.to/1PgoY5F SanDisk 16GB Extreme Pro: http://amzn.to/25KEErs SOCIAL MEDIA & TRAVEL BLOGS AUDREY: blog: http://thatbackpacker.com/ instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thatbackpacker/ facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thatbackpacker twitter: https://twitter.com/ThatBackpacker SAMUEL: blog: http://nomadicsamuel.com/ facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nomadicsamuel twitter: https://twitter.com/NomadicSamuel instragram: https://www.instagram.com/nomadicsamuel/ Chiavenna city tour and crossing the border to Switzerland: So Hello again from Italy! Today we are visiting a town called Chiavenna which is just two hours by train from Milan. A super easy day trip and it is a beautiful town. Very colorful, so we re going to be showing you some of the attractions around town as well as the outskirts. So next up we re about to visit Palazzo Vertemate Franchi. So let s go in and find out who used to live here. This Renaissance masterpiece was commissioned by the Vertemate Franchi family, which was one of the wealthiest families in the area. Within the walls of their property you ll find manicured Italian gardens, a chestnut grove, an array of fruit trees, and even a vineyard. Needless to say, this place would have been quite impressive back in the 16th century. So I ve learned two things about this palace. First off, they have the only walled vineyard in all of Chiavenna. And I also learned that the family had their own chapel because they were very noble and didn t like mixing with the commoners at the local church service. After touring the outside, we went inside the palazzo where we found painted ceilings, secret compartments meant for spying, and tiny beds because apparently people used to sleep seated and propped on pillows back in the day. So we are standing next to the portrait of Aloisius who was a member of the family. Now apparently he was a bit of a womanizer. He really liked the ladies and these days his ghost roams the halls looking for women. So beware if you visit. We also made sure to have a drink at the nearby fountain of youth. Apparently if you drink this water you re going to be young and healthy the rest of your life. So I m going to go have some. Maybe have a bath in there. I could use a bath. We then visited the Acquafraggia Waterfalls which were visited by Leonardo Da Vinci himself. Apparently he was so impressed by their beauty that he even wrote about them in his journal. From there we headed to a local artisan s workshop who works with pietra ollare - a local stone that he uses to create both art and cooking pots. Speaking Italian. And because we suffer from just-one-more-country-syndrome, we couldn t resist crossing a nearby border. Yes, we went to Switzerland! Where we were based in Italy we were only 10 kilometers away from Switzerland so we thought why not drive over here and pickup some chocolate. Yum! Swiss chocolate! So I m going to try my Swiss chocolate in Switzerland. We chose some beautiful views over here. Trust me, there are mountains covered in snow. It is just that the fog is rolling in at the moment but it is a pretty setting. Anyways, time for the chocolate. And look, it opens like an envelope. I broke the envelope. Fancy. The chocolate is like a letter in the envelope. Oh la lah. Swiss chocolate. It is so innovative. And this is milk chocolate I believe. Wow, that looks thick. And that s a wrap for our time in Chiavenna. It was a short and sweet visit, but it made us hungry to come back to the Alps! This is part of our Travel in Italy series. We re making a series of videos showcasing Italian culture, Italian arts, Italian foods, Italian religion, Italian cuisine and Italian people.

Astronomers study a lot of gorgeous things, but nebulae might be the most breathtakingly beautiful of them all. Nebulae are clouds of gas and dust in space. They can glow on their own or reflect light from nearby stars. When they glow it’s usually predominantly red from hydrogen and green from oxygen, and when they reflect and scatter light it’s from massive hot stars, so they look blue. Stars are born in some nebulae and create new ones as they die. Some nebulae are small and dense, others can be dozens or hundreds of lightyears across.

That may sound straightforward enough, but it gets incredibly complicated as soon as anyone tries to put the idea into practice. What exactly are the basic human rights? Who gets to pick them?

So, we ve been putting off a kind of basic question here. What is money? What is currency? How are the two different. Well, not to give away too much, but money has a few basic functions. It acts as a store of value, a medium of exchange, and as a unit of account. Money isn t just bills and coins. It can be anything that meets these three criteria. In US prisons, apparently, pouches of Mackerel are currency. Yes, mackerel the fish. Paper and coins work as money because they re backed by the government, which is an advantage over mackerel. So, once you ve got money, you need finance. We ll talk about borrowing, lending, interest, and stocks and bonds. Also, this episode features a giant zucchini, which Adriene grew in her garden.

Today we re talking about the anatomy of your urinary system, and how your kidneys filter metabolic waste and balance salt and water concentrations in the blood. We ll cover how nephrons use glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption, and tubular secretion to reabsorb water and nutrients back into the blood, and make urine with the leftovers.

Call the local utility company and have them check for buried pipes or wires. 2. Rent a gas-powered trenching machine and dig a trench at least 12 inches deep from the house to the garage. 3. Bore a 1½-inch-diameter hole through the house wall and into the basement with a drill and hole saw. Position the hole directly above the end of the trench. 4. Cut a length of ¾-inch-diameter plastic conduit to extend from the bottom of the trench up to the hole in the house wall. 5. If necessary, use a propane-powered heat gun to bend the conduit to conform to the foundation. 6. Attach a plastic conduit outlet body to the end of the conduit. 7. Push a length of UF (underground feed) electrical cable into the conduit, then feed the end of the cable through the hole in the house wall. 8. From inside the basement, pull the cable all the way to the main electrical panel. Secure the cable to the overhead joists with cable staples. 9. Go outside and lay the cable into the trench, running it all the way to the garage. 10. At the garage, repeat Steps 3 through 7 to install the plastic conduit and cable. 11. After feeding the cable into the garage, screw the conduit outlet body to the exterior wall of the garage. Screw the other conduit body to the house wall. 12.

Cover the cable with about 2 inches of sand, then lay caution tape on top of the sand along the entire trench. 14. Backfill the trench with the excavated soil. 15. Have a licensed electrician make the final wire connections in the garage and at the main electrical panel.

This Old House general contractor Tom Silva shows a homeowner how to silence squeaks in a carpeted room. (See the shopping list, tools, and steps below.) SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Shopping List for How to Quiet Squeaky Carpeted Floors: - Floor-squeak repair kit [https://amzn.to/2Fd12UW] Tools for How to Quiet Squeaky Carpeted Floors: - Hammer [https://amzn.to/2KhAu95] - Cordless drill [https://amzn.to/2F8TH8M] - Tape measure [https://amzn.to/2F4n8ZF] - Screws [https://amzn.to/2KR8M2g], to mark joist locations - Nylon string [https://amzn.to/2KVd88V], used to indicate floor joists Steps for How to Quiet Squeaky Carpeted Floors: 1. Tap the carpeted floor with a hammer and listen for a dull thud sound, which indicates the location of a floor joist. 2. Drive a long screw from the kit through the carpeting and subfloor to confirm that there’s a joist below. 3. If the screw misses a joist, back it out and try again until you hit a joist. Leave the screwhead sticking up an inch or so. 4. Once you’ve located the first joist, measure over every 16 inches to find the other floor joists along one wall. 5. Drive one screw into the floor every 16 inches across the room to mark the joist locations. Again, be sure to leave the screwheads protruding a little. 6. Transfer the location of the screws across to the other side of the room. 7. Repeat Steps 2 through 5 to pinpoint the joists along the opposite wall. 8. Tie a nylon string to the first screwhead and stretch it across the carpet and around the screwhead protruding from the floor at the opposite side of the room. 9. Loop the string around and stretch it along the next joist. Continue in this manner until you’ve stretched the string back and forth across the room, indicating the position of each joist. 10. Remove the special screw-driving bit from the floor-squeak repair kit and chuck it into a cordless drill. 11. Stand the kit’s depth-control fixture over the string and directly over a floor joist. 12. Insert a scored screw from the kit into the center hole in the fixture. 13. Push down on the fixture, then use the drill to drive in the screw until it bottoms out. 14. Slip the protruding screwhead into the slot in the fixture. Then rock the fixture side to side to snap off the screw. 15. Move down the string 12 to 16 inches and drive in another screw. Use the fixture to snap off the screw. 16. Continue in this manner along each joist, spacing the screws 12 to 16 inches apart. 17. Pick up and discard all the snapped-off screwheads.
