Period room kitchen of Pietro and Maria Botto
No full textThe kitchen was a major center of activity in the household. The large coal and gas range dominates the room. It was used as a heating source as well as for cooking foods. A worktable provided space for food preparation; a cupboard stored pots, pans and dishes; an icebox kept perishable food items cold; and a sink for dishes and laundry utilized indoor plumbing, a recent innovation for working-class households.
Even with the convenience of indoor plumbing and the gas range, the kitchen was the scene to virtual non-stop labor for Maria Botto and her daughters. In addition to meals prepared for the family, the Bottos fed a noon meal to boarders. On Sundays, the Botto women prepared food for as many as 100 people who came to recreate on the property. This, of course, provided an additional income for the family.
The Botto family's food ways reflected their home region of Biella, Piedmonte, Italy. Piedmontese cooks scorned tomato sauce, preferring wine and chicken brother to accompany such staple foods as polenta (corn meal), risotto (rice), and tortellini, a pasta. Generally, rosemary and sage were used as herbs and grown outside in the garden.
Some of the artifacts placed around the kitchen are the copper pot used to cook polenta, meat grinder, fish scaler, coffee grinder, rug beater, mousetrap, and wall calendars, which were used by working people as decorations.
The Botto women were generally charged with kitchen duties. Maria Botto hired a German woman to do the laundry. One special job was reserved for Pietro-stirring the polenta and cutting it with a string

Advertising Self-Regulation - Clearance Processes, Effectiveness and Future Research Agenda
No full textThis paper assesses the progress made in international research in advertising self-regulation (ASR) since 1980. We analyse and critique the academic progress made in relation to the ASR clearance processes, focusing specifically upon advertising clearance procedures, the influential factors of advertising clearance activities, and their effectiveness (including complaint handling), evaluating the extent to which issues raised have been adequately addressed and what areas remain underexplored. We then offer a new agenda for ASR research

Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

Moulds in the kitchen
No full textCitation: Clark, Grace Maria. Moulds in the kitchen. Senior thesis, Kansas State Agricultural College, 1892.Morse Department of Special CollectionsIntroduction: “Moulds” is an indefinite term applied to minute downy fungi which grow on the surface of matter. These fungi may be either saprophytic or parasitic. They belong to several different divisions, and this makes a description of them difficult to owe with a meager knowledge of fungi in general. Moulds grow on everything, from living plants to old shoes. They propagate by spores so light and small that they are easily carried about by the air and lodged everywhere to remain unobserved till the proper conditions of germination come. These conditions come with warm moist weather, and in such weather, the housekeeper who has cold victuals on hand for a few days finds an abundant crop of these small plants. She finds them occasionally, too, in canned fruit, where the moisture is always present. Four sorts of mould are of common occurrence in the kitchen: Mucar, Eurotium, Penicillium, and Tricothecium roseum. The life history of the first three is known. The last has been studied, so far as I know, only in the conidia bearing stage
