Merry Xmas all and a Happy New Year!

I write this post while the meal for the next days gets ready: to cut back on my (kitchen) work for the next days i made a very big pot of Cipollata, which gets better and better the more often it is reheated.

In case someone is interested, here is the recipe:

Cipollata (Italian-style sort-of stew with sausages)

You need (~4 persons, all the quantities and their proportions can be varied to suit your own tastes):

300g Bacon (in on piece, not sliced, should have some fat for the roasting)
500g carrots
500g champignon mushrooms
500g shallots
600g grill sausage ("Bratwurst"- or "chipolata"-type, but preferably small ones)
200g (pre-cooked) sweet chestnuts
a very big pot and about 3 hours time.

Cut the bacon into pins (5x5 mm wide and about 40-50 mm long) and roast it gently in the pot, only for a very short time. Then add the grill-sausage and continue to roast until the sausages attain some roasting-colour.

Cut the carrots into pieces ~2cm and put them in. Put a lid on the pot, reduce the heating and let that sit with the heating at a low level for ~20-30 minutes (stir every 2-3 minutes).

Peel the shallots and add them to the pot (usually in whole pieces, you might cut them in half, depending on their size). Let that again sit on low heating for another 20-30 minutes, stir every so often.

Clean the mushrooms, cut them in quarters and add them, let the whole cook on again, like before. Finally add the cooked and peeled chestnuts, continue the slow cooking to your liking. Ready.

You can serve the Cipollata with rice or potatoes or even with bread. Once it is ready you can set it aside, re-heat it the next day, and so on. It usually gets better when re-heated several times.

holidays(4)							   File Formats 						       holidays(4)

NAME

       holidays - prime/nonprime table for the accounting system

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/acct/holidays

DESCRIPTION

       The   /etc/acct/holidays file describes which hours are considered prime time and which days  are holidays.  Holidays and weekends are con-
       sidered non-prime time hours.  /etc/acct/holidays is used by the accounting system.

       All lines beginning with an "*" are comments.

       The  /etc/acct/holidays file consists of two sections.  The first non-comment line defines the current year and the start time of prime and
       non-prime time hours, in the form:

       current_year	 prime_start	  non_prime_start

       The remaining non-comment lines define the holidays in the  form:

       month/day     company_holiday

       Of these two fields, only the  month/day is actually used by  the accounting system programs.

       The  /etc/acct/holidays file must be updated each year.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Example of the /etc/acct/holidays file.
