The Lomi Lomi massage is a Hawaiian therapy based on the Huma philosophy which believes that in order to realize good health and a rich quality of life, it is important to harmonize and balance both the mind and body because the two are closely interlinked. Lomi Lomi massage is based on the belief that a human being's cell memories will either improve or negatively affect the whole body condition. Traditionally, Lomi Lomi therapy was practiced by native warriors, royal servants, and family members.
Lomi Lomi was probably first practised by Polynesians, who brought their art to the Hawaiian islands, where it really became embedded in their culture. This massage has been in existence since the early 19th century, and is a mixture of native healing, restorative massage, martial arts and as a luxury soothing technique for the digestive system. Given the rich history in native custom, where herbs and even the laws of vibration of the universe are used to gather the energy necessary to perform this therapy.
This massage was subject of much controversy to the authorities in Hawaii, who banned Lomi Lomi under a legal of curing by 'superstitious methods' in 1886. The authorities then required all practitioners to pass a written examination in the anatomy, physiology and massage theory. This forced many practitioners underground, and even now many will not perform their ancient art, but for in their homes or other private locations even though the laws were updated in 2001 to prevent prosecution.
A basic foundation of the Huna philosophy is that everyone seeks loves and everything seeks harmony. When the body lacks harmony, the result is pain emotionally, spiritually, mentally and physically. Sickness is as a result of tension, which effectively leads to physical resistance blocking the movement of energy. The Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage therapy helps in releasing this tension and thus opens the road to holistic healing. On the physical level, tension and stress are relieved, lymph and blood flow assisted or restored, and the body gets stimulated to eliminate toxins and wastes. Many practitioners will ask their clients to pray, meditate or adjust their diets to achieve the maximum benefit from this holistic massage.
There is no rigidly set format for the Lomi Lomi procedure and every massage should be dictated by the energy flow of individual's body. No two massages can, therefore, be completely identical, which is perfect therapy as the therapist creates a personalized experience for each client.
Here are easy steps to follow when giving a restorative, relaxing home massage based on the original Hawaiian style.
You can choose to use water-based oil as it is easier to clean afterward. Remember you are doing it at home and not at the professional massage parlour. Jojoba oil, grapeseed, or almond are all recommended for this massage, with a couple of drops of the lavender essential oil. Sesame oil is good during cold seasons as it gently warms up the body. In summer months, you may want to use coconut oil as it naturally helps to cool the body.
Before you start the procedure, confirm that the person getting the massage doesn't have any allergies to products like lavender or almond oil. There are always alternatives to nut-based oils, for example, evening primrose, jasmine or safflower oils. Avocado oil is another alternative, but this is a heavier oil and is perhaps better suited to more mature skin.
This is very important as location is everything to relaxation. A cold room or room where external noise can interrupt you zoning out to a space for relaxation should of course be avoided.
You can prepare the room for the massage space by having some essential oils sprinkled around, burning incense or pampering with fresh flowers in an atmosphere of low, ambient lighting. If the massage recipient loves music, you could have some soothing background music or sounds of nature.
Get the person who is receiving the massage therapy to lie face down, then ask him or her to take a couple of deep breaths. Proceed by placing your hands on their back where it corresponds to the heart. Your goal is to channel positive energy down from your heart and coming through both of your hands.
It is important to warm up the muscles as you begin a massage just like a seasoned athlete would. You can start with long, light flowing strokes on the surface, working more deeply into the muscles as you progress. Remember relaxation is key, and a gentle build-up will allow the person to feel comfy and give them time to zone out of every day life.
It's vital that a calm, almost meditative mental state is achieved in order to bring the desired calmness to the recipient. Use soothing, flowing movements using both your hands in fluid, long sweeps. Remember to use enough oil so as to avoid causing unpleasant friction, but not too much.
Start at the back and gradually work through the rear of the arms, the neck, the legs, ending at the feet. If the person receiving the massage is comfortable with a front massage, address the legs upwards to the arms, and chest. Stimulating reflex points located in the feet and hands releases endorphins which bring a whole body feel-good effect. Always try to achieve order in terms of what areas you address, as connecting areas of the body is more natural, rather than changing from one location to another. Equally, the sense of oozing the daily stresses out of the body is achieved by this flow of movement.
Listen carefully to the body and if an area goes red or tenses up, give that section some extra work. There are definitely some areas that are no-go zones like the stomach as it can feel too intimate. Always seek the opinion of the person receiving the massage before you start and always avoid the surprise element by keeping your movements fluid. Likewise if an area offers more relaxation to the recipient, go with the flow giving deeper therapy to offer maximum benefit of your 'loving hands' therapy.
Cool down the person's muscles with relaxing, long strokes and finish with one more energy balance just like you started – just as the traditional Huna Lomi Lomi massage was designed to do.
You learn how to move, breathe, touch and be touched in special ways that enhance wholeness and wellbeing.
In Hawaii, the Lomi Lomi therapy is also used in treating small children experiencing upset stomachs and in soothing women in labour.
You can choose to use ordinary and easily available oils such as Coconut oil, Jojoba oil, Grapeseed, Almond oil or Sesame oil.
Magnolia + Coconut + Kukui - One combination you can use to recreate the traditional Lomi Lomi massage is Magnolia, Coconut and Kukui. This luscious massage and body oil will whisk you away to pure bliss in tropical isles. This LOMI LOMI and luscious body oil can be obtained for $22 from http://goodmedicinebeautylab.com/lomi-lomi-luscious-body-oil/.
Magnolia and coconut oils – This blend of coconut oils and magnolia will instantly carry you into a blissful place.
Buddha Blends Body Therapy Cream – This massage cream has been made using a variety of oils plus beeswax. To order this amazing massage cream, go to www.buddhablends.com.
A number of new concepts have been incorporated into the Lomi Lomi massage such as hot stones, chiropractic manoeuvres, Swedish massage, or flowing arm movements. These are largely modifications of the original Lomi Lomi as practised in Hawaii. Lomi Lomi in some cases now entails the use of breathing exercises, meditation, relaxation and natural healing through the use of herbal remedies.
An important aspect that adds great value to the Lomi Lomi massage therapy is to learning to forgive and letting go of all resentment. This may seem a bizarre concept, however even psychologists often work in pain management clinics in the Western world for this reason. Tensions and stress have a negative impact on the body, as we will naturally tense up and worry about problems in our lives. Neck pain is a prime example, where stress often causes tension build up in the neck and shoulders, causing secondary pain. Happiness is an essential ingredient to our wellbeing, often allowing us to cope with stress and daily toils in a more healthy way.
Often, and with good reason, Lomi Lomi is fondly known as a 'Loving Hands Massage'. This a brilliant way to de-stress and relax regularly, and even better as a perfect ritual for a couple. This massage could perhaps be combined with reading poetry or other literature to each other as a loving, ritual taking you both an ocean away from the regular, conventional activities.
Wow! such a great history behind the Lomi Lomi massage. Did female servants also practice the traditional Lomi Lomi massage therapy too? I got glued to this piece. With the numerous benefits attached, it's definitely the next thing to do.

Render is a package that provides functionality for easily rendering JSON, XML, text, binary data, and HTML templates. This package is based on the [Martini](https://github.com/go-martini/martini) [render](https://github.com/martini-contrib/render) work.

## Block Deprecation Notice
Go 1.6 introduces a new [block](https://github.com/golang/go/blob/release-branch.go1.6/src/html/template/example_test.go#L128) action. This conflicts with Render's included `block` template function. To provide an easy migration path, a new function was created called `partial`. It is a duplicate of the old `block` function. It is advised that all users of the `block` function update their code to avoid any issues in the future. Previous to Go 1.6, Render's `block` functionality will continue to work but a message will be logged urging you to migrate to the new `partial` function.

## Usage
Render can be used with pretty much any web framework providing you can access the `http.ResponseWriter` from your handler. The rendering functions simply wraps Go's existing functionality for marshaling and rendering data.

- HTML: Uses the [html/template](http://golang.org/pkg/html/template/) package to render HTML templates.
- JSON: Uses the [encoding/json](http://golang.org/pkg/encoding/json/) package to marshal data into a JSON-encoded response.
- XML: Uses the [encoding/xml](http://golang.org/pkg/encoding/xml/) package to marshal data into an XML-encoded response.
- Binary data: Passes the incoming data straight through to the `http.ResponseWriter`.
- Text: Passes the incoming string straight through to the `http.ResponseWriter`.

~~~ go
// main.go

### Available Options
Render comes with a variety of configuration options _(Note: these are not the default option values. See the defaults below.)_:

~~~ go
// ...
r := render.New(render.Options{
    Directory: "templates", // Specify what path to load the templates from.
    Asset: func(name string) ([]byte, error) { // Load from an Asset function instead of file.
      return []byte("template content"), nil
    },
    AssetNames: func() []string { // Return a list of asset names for the Asset function
      return []string{"filename.tmpl"}
    },
    Layout: "layout", // Specify a layout template. Layouts can call {{ yield }} to render the current template or {{ partial "css" }} to render a partial from the current template.
    Extensions: []string{".tmpl", ".html"}, // Specify extensions to load for templates.
    Funcs: []template.FuncMap{AppHelpers}, // Specify helper function maps for templates to access.
    Delims: render.Delims{"{[{", "}]}"}, // Sets delimiters to the specified strings.
    Charset: "UTF-8", // Sets encoding for content-types. Default is "UTF-8".
    DisableCharset: true, // Prevents the charset from being appended to the content type header.
    IndentJSON: true, // Output human readable JSON.
    IndentXML: true, // Output human readable XML.
    PrefixJSON: []byte(")]}',\n"), // Prefixes JSON responses with the given bytes.
    PrefixXML: []byte("<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>"), // Prefixes XML responses with the given bytes.
    HTMLContentType: "application/xhtml+xml", // Output XHTML content type instead of default "text/html".
    IsDevelopment: true, // Render will now recompile the templates on every HTML response.
    UnEscapeHTML: true, // Replace ensure '&<>' are output correctly (JSON only).
    StreamingJSON: true, // Streams the JSON response via json.Encoder.
    RequirePartials: true, // Return an error if a template is missing a partial used in a layout.
    DisableHTTPErrorRendering: true, // Disables automatic rendering of http.StatusInternalServerError when an error occurs.
})
// ...
~~~

### Default Options
These are the preset options for Render:

~~~ go
r := render.New()

// Is the same as the default configuration options:

r := render.New(render.Options{
    Directory: "templates",
    Asset: nil,
    AssetNames: nil,
    Layout: "",
    Extensions: []string{".tmpl"},
    Funcs: []template.FuncMap{},
    Delims: render.Delims{"{{", "}}"},
    Charset: "UTF-8",
    DisableCharset: false,
    IndentJSON: false,
    IndentXML: false,
    PrefixJSON: []byte(""),
    PrefixXML: []byte(""),
    BinaryContentType: "application/octet-stream",
    HTMLContentType: "text/html",
    JSONContentType: "application/json",
    JSONPContentType: "application/javascript",
    TextContentType: "text/plain",
    XMLContentType: "application/xhtml+xml",
    IsDevelopment: false,
    UnEscapeHTML: false,
    StreamingJSON: false,
    RequirePartials: false,
    DisableHTTPErrorRendering: false,
})
~~~

### JSON vs Streaming JSON
By default, Render does **not** stream JSON to the `http.ResponseWriter`. It instead marshalls your object into a byte array, and if no errors occurred, writes that byte array to the `http.ResponseWriter`. This is ideal as you can catch errors before sending any data.

If however you have the need to stream your JSON response (ie: dealing with massive objects), you can set the `StreamingJSON` option to true. This will use the `json.Encoder` to stream the output to the `http.ResponseWriter`. If an error occurs, you will receive the error in your code, but the response will have already been sent. Also note that streaming is only implemented in `render.JSON` and not `render.JSONP`, and the `UnEscapeHTML` and `Indent` options are ignored when streaming.

### Loading Templates
By default Render will attempt to load templates with a '.tmpl' extension from the "templates" directory. Templates are found by traversing the templates directory and are named by path and basename. For instance, the following directory structure:

~~~
templates/
  |
  |__ admin/
  |      |
  |      |__ index.tmpl
  |      |
  |      |__ edit.tmpl
  |
  |__ home.tmpl
~~~

Will provide the following templates:
~~~
admin/index
admin/edit
home
~~~

You can also load templates from memory by providing the Asset and AssetNames options,
e.g. when generating an asset file using [go-bindata](https://github.com/jteeuwen/go-bindata).

### Layouts
Render provides `yield` and `partial` functions for layouts to access:
~~~ go
// ...
r := render.New(render.Options{
    Layout: "layout",
})
// ...
~~~

~~~ html

    <title>My Layout</title>

    {{ partial "css" }}

    {{ partial "header" }}

    {{ yield }}

    {{ partial "footer" }}

~~~

`current` can also be called to get the current template being rendered.
~~~ html

    <title>My Layout</title>

    This is the {{ current }} page.

~~~

Partials are defined by individual templates as seen below. The partial template's
name needs to be defined as "{partial name}-{template name}".
~~~ html

{{ define "header-home" }}

Home

{{ end }}

{{ define "footer-home"}}

The End

{{ end }}
~~~

By default, the template is not required to define all partials referenced in the
layout. If you want an error to be returned when a template does not define a
partial, set `Options.RequirePartials = true`.

### Character Encodings
Render will automatically set the proper Content-Type header based on which function you call. See below for an example of what the default settings would output (note that UTF-8 is the default, and binary data does not output the charset):
~~~ go
// main.go
package main

import (
    "encoding/xml"
    "net/http"

    "github.com/unrolled/render"  // or "gopkg.in/unrolled/render.v1"
)

type ExampleXml struct {
    XMLName xml.Name `xml:"example"`
    One     string   `xml:"one,attr"`
    Two     string   `xml:"two,attr"`
}

func main() {
    r := render.New(render.Options{})
    mux := http.NewServeMux()

    // This will set the Content-Type header to "application/octet-stream".
    // Note that this does not receive a charset value.
    mux.HandleFunc("/data", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
        r.Data(w, http.StatusOK, []byte("Some binary data here."))
    })

    // This will set the Content-Type header to "application/json; charset=UTF-8".
    mux.HandleFunc("/json", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
        r.JSON(w, http.StatusOK, map[string]string{"hello": "json"})
    })

    // This will set the Content-Type header to "text/xml; charset=UTF-8".
    mux.HandleFunc("/xml", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
        r.XML(w, http.StatusOK, ExampleXml{One: "hello", Two: "xml"})
    })

    // This will set the Content-Type header to "text/plain; charset=UTF-8".
    mux.HandleFunc("/text", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
        r.Text(w, http.StatusOK, "Plain text here")
    })

    // This will set the Content-Type header to "text/html; charset=UTF-8".
    mux.HandleFunc("/html", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
        // Assumes you have a template in ./templates called "example.tmpl"
        // $ mkdir -p templates && echo "
Hello {{.}}.
" > templates/example.tmpl
        r.HTML(w, http.StatusOK, "example", "World")
    })

    http.ListenAndServe("127.0.0.1:3000", mux)
}
~~~

In order to change the charset, you can set the `Charset` within the `render.Options` to your encoding value:
~~~ go
// main.go
package main

import (
    "encoding/xml"
    "net/http"

    "github.com/unrolled/render"  // or "gopkg.in/unrolled/render.v1"
)

type ExampleXml struct {
    XMLName xml.Name `xml:"example"`
    One     string   `xml:"one,attr"`
    Two     string   `xml:"two,attr"`
}

func main() {
    r := render.New(render.Options{
        Charset: "ISO-8859-1",
    })
    mux := http.NewServeMux()

    // This will set the Content-Type header to "application/octet-stream".
    // Note that this does not receive a charset value.
    mux.HandleFunc("/data", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
        r.Data(w, http.StatusOK, []byte("Some binary data here."))
    })

    // This will set the Content-Type header to "application/json; charset=ISO-8859-1".
    mux.HandleFunc("/json", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
        r.JSON(w, http.StatusOK, map[string]string{"hello": "json"})
    })

    // This will set the Content-Type header to "text/xml; charset=ISO-8859-1".
    mux.HandleFunc("/xml", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
        r.XML(w, http.StatusOK, ExampleXml{One: "hello", Two: "xml"})
    })

    // This will set the Content-Type header to "text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1".
    mux.HandleFunc("/text", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
        r.Text(w, http.StatusOK, "Plain text here")
    })

    // This will set the Content-Type header to "text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1".
    mux.HandleFunc("/html", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
        // Assumes you have a template in ./templates called "example.tmpl"
        // $ mkdir -p templates && echo "
Hello {{.}}.
" > templates/example.tmpl
        r.HTML(w, http.StatusOK, "example", "World")
    })

    http.ListenAndServe("127.0.0.1:3000", mux)
}
~~~

### Error Handling

The rendering functions return any errors from the rendering engine.
By default, they will also write the error to the HTTP response and set the status code to 500. You can disable
this behavior so that you can handle errors yourself by setting
`Options.DisableHTTPErrorRendering: true`.

~~~go
r := render.New(render.Options{
  DisableHTTPErrorRendering: true,
})

//...

err := r.HTML(w, http.StatusOK, "example", "World")
if err != nil{
  http.Redirect(w, r, "/my-custom-500", http.StatusFound)
}
~~~

Mysterious Boy Pulls Ico Novel to U.S.
While you're waiting for the Ico HD remake, why not sit down with the game's novelization?
2001's Ico became a cult-classic that has stayed in gamer consciousness for nearly a decade, with an HD PS3 remake set for release in 2011. In Japan, it was even given a novelization written by Miyuki Miyabe called Ico: Castle of the Mist, which is finally making its way to the U.S.
Ico: Castle of the Mist's translation is being handled by Viz Media, a company known for its prowess with anime and manga. The novel is over 400 pages long.
When a boy named Ico grows long curved horns overnight, his fate has been sealed-he is to be sacrificed in the Castle in the Mist. But in the castle, Ico meets a young girl named Yorda imprisoned in its halls. Alone they will die, but together Ico and Yorda might just be able to defy their destinies and escape the magic of the castle.
This is definitely a novel I'd like to check out, because Ico doesn't seem like a natural fit for a novelization. Its characters are basically silent. They don't have lengthy conversations about their pasts, hobbies, or likes and dislikes. Ico's appeal is mostly about the mystery behind the two, and the emotional feel of leading the girl through multiple environments without any dialog.
I'll read an Ico novel, but I'm just not sure exactly what I'll be reading. Ico: Castle in the Mist is expected by summer 2011, but doesn't have an announced release date yet. It can be found on Amazon here.

When I saw the trailer for this film I knew I had to see it. I have been a fan of the entire history of music from Marvin Gaye to Erykah Badu to Bobby Brown. I'm a huge fan of R&B music in general. I also have been a fan of Louis The Child because of his music and his talent. This movie about a man and his family and what brought him into the music industry and everything he went through was unbelievable. It is truly inspiring to watch how he was affected by the industry and by his mother. His music is still as powerful and at the same time as moving as it was back in the day. The movie showed a man who had a great talent and a great outlook on life but also was very vulnerable and seemed to be going through a lot. It was very emotional and made you feel for him. The music is very powerful and inspiring to me and I hope that others can also see this movie and get some inspiration and motivation.
There are moments that are heart-wrenching and that seem to shock and excite the audience. But overall, I think this is the best documentary I have ever seen. So much so that I will watch it over and over again. The main character is extremely realistic and goes through the everyday of working in a coal mine with so many ups and downs. He is also working on a trust fund for his sister who has cancer and he is just trying to live and not be a burden on his sister. This documentary is definitely worth the money, however, I suggest seeing it for yourself and trying to understand what these people are going through and what their motivations are.
I have come to hate cinema over the last couple of years. I have not felt this way since I saw a trailer for "Ice Cream" back in 2007. So, I had to see it. My dad told me to go see it since I am really into science-fiction and this was one of those rare movies I could watch at any time. I had no idea what to expect. I knew it would be weird and I knew that the story would be really creepy and it was. It took me a while to accept that I could be so fascinated by a movie like this. But once I did, I was totally riveted to the screen. The acting was fantastic, especially the mother-daughter relationship. They were incredibly believable and believable because the mom is so young and never got the "superiority complex" of her mother. Also, I was so impressed by the kids acting. I have never seen a child act this way in a movie before. I could feel the magic of these young actors. The "just kidding!" scene was also fantastic. All in all, I thought this was a great movie and I am so glad I was able to go see it.

There is no Hollywood legend anymore. I grew up watching and learning from Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, and many other stars of the silent era. I was thrilled to learn that the man who brought them to life, Roy Schieder, was interviewed in the documentary "The Great Music Hall" which tells the story of a musician and performer known as "Fred Astaire". I have followed the career of "Fred Astaire" and many of his contemporaries for years. I have been fascinated by the life of Astaire and the tales of his extraordinary life. I watched this movie with great interest. I found the acting to be excellent, the way in which they brought the music of this era to life was superb, and the documentary to be extremely informative. I was also struck by the story that is told in this movie. I was so impressed with this film, I could not put it down, and I strongly recommend it.
I have watched this film many times and it is always a joy to watch. I found the first part of the film to be rather dull and boring but the second part was excellent. It is a great story about a family who had a great love for each other and the pain of the loss of a child. The acting is superb and the story is very moving. This is a film I will watch again and again.

This is a very emotional film. This documentary is an overall tribute to Mr. Tod, a rock and roll music legend. It is clear that this is not a film about a person's life, but a journey of the musical career of a legend. Mr. Tod was a remarkable and inspiring human being who, with an enormous talent and intellect, had the ability to inspire people with his music and his personal life. He was truly a genius. His music was magnificent and a tribute to great musicians like Bob Dylan, and the Rolling Stones. Mr. Tod's story has been told many times before, and his fans know it. This film tells the true story of how he was able to use his music to make a positive impact on many lives. Mr. Tod is truly a true artist and a genius. His music made people believe in their own beliefs and values. He was a great person. His story is also one of the best inspirational movies ever. It is hard to say more, because it would spoil it for you. This film is great because of it's profound message. It is really touching and you will be touched by it. You will laugh, you will cry, you will be inspired, and you will be moved by this story. This is one of those films you will enjoy and you will love. It is simply amazing, and one of the best films of the year.
This is a great, slow-burn documentary that should be seen by all of you who feel that the Human Rights record in the United States is appalling. It's not the word of a politician, but of a religious leader. I didn't think this was going to be about the death of Ricky. I figured it would be about the death of a child who had been abused by the Pastor and his son. But this was not the case. In fact, this is the first documentary about the Pastor's son. The other two weren't bad at all. I give it a 9, and I have watched it four times already. It's very interesting, and very moving. I recommend this to anyone who wants to know more about what happened to Ricky and his family.

I've heard a lot about 'The Family' and 'Rape' and 'Family' and 'Theresa', but I never knew much about 'Billy' except that he was a choir director and I had never heard of him before. I'm glad I found out more about him. Although I'm not very familiar with the Sopranos (except in the characters and their dealings with each other) I must say that 'Billy' and the Sopranos are more similar than not. Billy was a friend and mentor to Rosie and the Soprano's family. I don't know if 'Billy' was the son of the Soprano's family, but I can't think of any reason why they wouldn't have hired him. He was incredibly charismatic and was the one to get their family back together, as well as having a brother to take care of them. I just hope that the movie gives the viewer a more complete picture of the characters involved and their family problems. The family was dysfunctional and while I know that this was probably not the case, it still sucks. I understand that the family's problems are emotional and therefore hard to understand, but it's also common knowledge that this was the case. The end of the movie was touching and I'm glad to see someone finally try to tell the story.
I think this is the first film I have seen that has caused me to feel any emotion other than sadness. It is sad to see the power and influence of power that some people have in our lives, and this is a great film about the human condition and about how people are controlled by the emotions. The humour is at times painful, and yet it keeps you glued to the screen. It is probably a film that no one can avoid watching, and it is a great film to do so.

It's a great documentary. I am a big fan of documentaries. I love to watch them. But I can't say I have seen a documentary that really got my attention like this one. I think that the whole thing was well made. The documentary focuses on the lives of the "Mafia Family" of the Bronx. The stories of the families and their members are well told. The filmmakers did a good job of telling the stories of these families and their members. I was also impressed by the way they filmed these stories. I was impressed by the fact that they chose not to show the family members as the family members. They used the cameras to show the people that they interviewed. I also thought that the documentaries that they made were very well made. The first one was a good documentary. This one is a great documentary. I thought it was well made. It's a great documentary that I think people should watch. I think that it's a great documentary that you should watch.
This is one of those documentaries that's probably gonna get on many peoples minds. I'm a part of a very strict Christian congregation and also a gay person. The issues that the documentary addresses are mostly religious but there's also some secular stuff thrown in there as well. The religious folks will be like "We've always done that" and the secular folks will be like "What's the big deal?" It's basically the same thing. The film is divided into two parts: Part 1 deals with the business of Diner/Wedding management. Part 2 deals with the issues that come up when couples who've been together for a while start to get married and start living in an apartment together. Part 1 is much more straight forward, the marriage part is a little bit more interesting. The drama is pretty standard "it's so wonderful to be married now" type stuff. Part 2 deals with the issues around custody of a child and the like. The religious folks will be like "Religion is for cults!" and the secular folks will be like "Religion is for people who actually believe in what they're telling you" and then you get a little bit of a hoot between the two camps. The documentary is well done, no spoilers here, but the subject matter and delivery is a little different than most other documentaries, so be prepared. But the subject matter and delivery is pretty good for this type of documentary. Very rarely does a documentary get this much into it.
Amy Foster
The extended version of this documentary contains 40 minutes of interviews with the filmmakers, as well as in-depth interviews with celebrities who provided insightful insight into the situation. The interviews are "moving" and enlightening. It is truly great to see some of Hollywood's most revered people offering up their personal experiences in this documentary. Unfortunately, not everyone is invited to participate. A few of the interviews are particularly important, such as Billy Crystal's (Iris) admissions that he will never know the pain he suffered while being a victim of abuse. While he tries to remain positive, it's clear that he cannot help it. He knows it's true and is proud of his reaction to it, which is sad to see him attempt to mitigate the burden. After all, he had a gun strapped to his chest in the midst of the frenzy. This film may have given rise to a lot of hurt, but it also has taught us a lot about the real monsters of Hollywood.
I remember seeing this documentary in New York City around 1974. It was a very powerful film at that time, and one of my favorite films of all time. The documentary really did give the real story of the Amish and their way of life, and what life is really like for a family in a time of crisis. I saw this film again in 1998, and this time I was able to see it in the original Russian language. It is a powerful and beautiful story, but if you are not able to understand the language of the films it is hard to enjoy it. This is one of those movies you will want to see again and again.
Andrea Collins
In the past few years, producers have been putting out these truly shocking documentaries on movies of the past. "Citizen Kane" and "The Godfather" were exactly the sort of documentaries I enjoyed when I was younger. "The family that never was" is one of my all-time favorites as well. But I'm also a die-hard movie snob. I like to see a good movie no matter what. And I loved this movie. It's one of those "it's about the movie and not the movie itself" kind of documentaries. So many people have compared this to "The Sixth Sense," but for the most part, it's very different. "The family that never was" also seems to have a similar feel to "Blair Witch Project." Even though "The Sixth Sense" was a great movie, I think it's a lot more fun to watch when you're not expecting it. This film has a good balance of humor and drama, and there is some real beauty to it. I think that this documentary is much better than many of the reviews I've read. I think that it is a much more profound and thought-provoking film. I think people need to get the point that what we're seeing in the movie isn't really happening. But it is and it is very entertaining to see how people react when they see it. For me, this is my favorite documentary of all time.

The film is a fascinating look at the life of a family that was created by the parents and their friends to be a family of sorts. I thought it was very well done and did a good job of portraying the family and the events that led to the creation of the family. I did not understand the title of the movie until I read the reviews. It was a great title and I would recommend that you read the reviews on this site before watching this movie. The movie is about the birth of the family. I thought the movie was very well done and it was interesting to see the family evolve. I think that the movie is very informative about the life of a family and the people who were involved in the birth of the family.
Virginia Carr
Having always loved Irish life as an outsider, I was sceptical that a docudrama would be able to capture the essence of a real life story. This docudrama is refreshingly free from the often cloying nature of many documentaries, which are essentially a preparation for someone arriving in the States, and when the realisation sets in that they are not going to be welcomed, they tend to shout about how much they hate them in their native language. I was not able to understand much of what the young men in the movie were saying, though the theme of the movie, of being "foreign" in the States, struck a chord with me. We are no longer afraid of seeing ourselves in a mirror, for it is so very easy to do so. We can now use it to look inwards, to realise how important it is to embrace your own identity, your own culture, your own way of living, and to share it with others, to learn how to respect the ones you love, and how to be your own person. If you are not afraid to be different, then why are you afraid to be yourself? If you think that we are all the same, that everyone is the same, then you don't know who you are, and are therefore, an asshole. Enjoy this movie, and learn about the true nature of freedom.

I have seen a lot of documentaries on the war in Iraq and I have to say that this one is by far the best one I have seen. I don't want to give away the whole story, but I will say that the story of this family is not only a good story but it is also a very accurate one. The story of the Abu Ghraib prison is not only a very interesting story but it is also a very accurate one. The film is very well done and it is really informative. The acting is also very good and it is very interesting to see how the actors feel about the war in Iraq. The only problem I had with the film is that it is not very well made and there are a few scenes that are not very good. I think that the best part of the film is the story itself and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in the war in Iraq or just a film that is well made.

Q: What is the correct way of sizing a control inside its own WindowProc function? I want to adjust the size of a custom control and make it topmost when it is active and has at least one line. Is it safe or even good coding to call SetWindowPos() from inside the same control WindowProc()? I am working on WinAPI directly.

A: Yes it is safe. Many developers do this to alter the state of their window. For example, developers will call SetWindowPos() with the SWP_FRAMECHANGED flag during their WM_CREATE handler to recalculate the client area of their window.
Calling SetWindowPos() with the same window handle of the same control's WindowProc is fine, just make sure all handles and flags are valid.

France takes the lead and recognises Libyan rebels while Gaddafi's envoys head for Brussels
The new French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe is now moving fast to try and rectify a string of blunders and to try and restore some cohesion to French foreign policy. After the lightweight flitting about of Michelle Alliot-Marie and her Tunisian holidays, the weight of the former French Prime Minister is beginning to be felt. Though the news was reported by Sarkozy's office I suspect that Alain Juppé has multiple objectives with this move. And one of them is to show that French Foreign policy can be taken seriously. His biggest task will be to tame Sarkozy's arrogance and impetuousness.
Alain Juppé: Image via Wikipedia
BBC reports:
France has become the first country to recognise the Libyan rebel leadership, the National Libyan Council (NLC), as the country's legitimate government. The office of French President Nicolas Sarkozy said Paris regarded the NLC as Libya's "legitimate representative". …
Mustafa Gheriani, a spokesman for the rebels in their eastern stronghold of Benghazi, said the French move was "breaking the ice", adding that he expected other EU members to follow suit.
However Italy and Spain have said they will not take a similar step until European Union members have reached a common position on the issue.
EU foreign ministers will also hold talks in Brussels, ahead of a European Council summit on Friday.
But France 24 reports that Gaddafi's envoys are also on their way to Brussels for some lobbying activity:
…. The EU's 27 foreign ministers started the ball rolling mid-morning, preparing a full summit of leaders the next day.
Britain and France are lobbying for United Nations Security Council support for a no-fly zone. Anxious Washington wants any military action conducted under the banner of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation, with Arab regional backing seen as essential.
"Some think this could protect civilians from aerial bombardment, others fear risks in terms of how it would play with Arab public opinion," said a top EU official who asked not to be named.
On the headline initiative of enforcing a no-fly zone over a country vaster than restricted air exclusion areas over Iraq or the Balkans in past conflicts, "countries are divided" over operational input and scope, added the source.
The meetings follow a flurry of diplomatic activity that Thursday saw France extend official recognition to the rebel Libyan national council whose representative had earlier lobbied the European parliament. France and Germany urged European partners to engage in dialogue with the rebels.
On Wednesday Kadhafi sent his own envoys to Europe and they were reportedly heading for Brussels. Asked to confirm, an EU official said "we don't know for certain".

Alcohol-related cancer may seem like something that would affect only heavy drinkers, but according to a new study, having even one drink per day can put you at risk for cancer. Researchers from the National Cancer Institute found that alcohol-related cancer accounted for 3.5 percent of all cancer deaths in the United States in 2009 — and even light and moderate drinkers were at significant risk.
The link between cancer and alcohol consumption has been established by previous studies, but this new study quantifies the risk, death rates, and years of life lost in a way previously unseen.
Approximately 560,000 people died from cancer in 2009, the year for which the researchers analyzed alcohol-related cancer death rates. Of those deaths, nearly 20,000 were caused by alcohol-linked cancers, according to the study, published in the American Journal of Public Health.
"People talk about how to prevent cancer, and about avoiding tobacco and eating better, but this an issue that we think has been missed," says David Nelson MD, study author and Director of the Cancer Prevention Fellowship Program at the National Cancer Institute. "20,000 deaths is a large number." Each of those deaths accounted for approximately 18 years of potential life lost, the researchers report.
Alcohol-linked breast cancer deaths accounted for 15 percent of all breast cancer deaths.
While the majority – an estimated 54 percentage – of these deaths occurred in people who drank more than three alcoholic drinks per day, the researchers found that, depending on the type of cancer, up to 33 percent of people who died from alcohol-related cancer had consumed only one alcoholic drink per day on average.
While researchers are not exactly sure how alcohol may lead to cancer, it is clear that poor health habits – not just drinking – play a major role in cancer risk. Dr. Nelson says that people who drink a lot often also have a poor diet and/or smoke, which, coupled with alcohol use, puts them at a greater risk for developing cancer.
"Whether or not you drink alcohol, not smoking, being physically active, and maintaining a healthy weight can greatly lower your risk of fatal cancer as well as improve your general health," Dr. Jacobs said in the statement.
The dramatic link between alcohol and breast cancer death rates raises a question: Should women limit their alcohol consumption even more than is currently recommended? Moderate drinking is currently defined by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as one drink per day for women and two drinks per day for men.
Clifford Hudis MD, chief of the breast cancer medicine service at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City, has a different view, saying the breast cancer risk posed by drinking is simply a part of life.
"There's no such thing as a zero-risk life," Dr. Hudis says. "Unfortunately, alcohol is a part of many people's social lives, so I think those people just need to be aware of a slightly increased risk of cancer."
Knowing your family history is key to deciding whether you should avoid alcohol over fears of breast cancer, says Freya Schnabel, MD, a professor in the department of surgery at New York University Cancer Center in New York City. You need to know what you're at risk for before you can start mitigating that risk, she says.
Although this new study outlines the cancer risks linked to alcohol, previous studies have indicated that there may be some benefit to moderate alcohol consumption, says Jacobs.
"While even light drinking may increase risk of some cancers, notably breast cancer, light drinking may also help lower risk of heart disease, and overall death rates do not appear to be increased in light drinkers," Jacob says.
But conflicting information on the benefits and risks of alcohol makes it difficult for consumers to understand how they should balance their consumption, says Chandini Portteus, vice president of research, evaluation, and scientific programs for Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
The important thing for consumers is to look at all the information available and make an educated decision on what's best for them based on all of the research, Portteus says: "We can't look at one study in isolation from the rest."
However, notes Jernigan, most people don't want to hear that going to the bar after work could be setting you up for cancer down the line.
The most important thing, Nelson believes, is to make people understand that alcohol is a carcinogen. While it may be impossible to get people to stop drinking, making them aware of the dangers can help them make smarter decisions.
"The Alcoholic-Cancer Link: Study Shows Even One Drink a Day Could Be Risky" originally appeared on Everyday Health.


I'm not saying that religion is a good thing. I'm saying that it's a great thing. It can make you better or it can make you much worse. But it means that you take the question of how to live seriously.
Clearly, Smith meant that religion, whatever else one might say about it, is an obviously and undeniably important element of the human condition. Clearly, it looms large in human culture and history. Given this, how can anyone be uninterested in it, even if one supposes that they "have no religion?" How can anyone not care much about what religion is, what it does, what it means and what it might become or should be if its evident ubiquity is evidence that some part of it is necessary or serves an important purpose? It is neither responsible nor intellectually honest to suppose that religion – especially given its amorphous and ambiguous nature – can simply be eliminated with no ill effects. Of course, at the NTCOF we make the point that it is vital to distinguish "religion" from superstition and supernaturalism.
The majority of our November service was then presented by our special guest speaker, Professor Christel J. Manning. She was introduced by Professor J. Gordon Melton, Distinguished Professor of American Religious History with the Institute for Studies of Religion at Baylor University in Waco, Texas. Both are sociologists of religion, Dr. Manning having been, while in at the University of California in Santa Barbara, a student and collaborator of Dr. Melton. Dr. Melton introduced Dr. Manning as someone who, it was evident during her postgraduate training, was focused on becoming a serious scholar of the sociology of religion. And she has clearly succeeded in doing just that.
Dr. Manning has been since 1995 Professor of Theology and Religious Studies at Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, CT. Her most recent book is Losing Our Religion: How Unaffiliated Parents Are Raising Their Children. She is also an atheist. She spoke on the elusive subject of "the nones," those who, in polls, indicate that they have no religious affiliation or whose religion is "nothing in particular." She went through the polling data showing a very significant increase in the "nones," not all of whom are atheists or, at least, admit to being atheists. This has been particularly notable among younger people but is evident in all age groups. She also talked about how these "nones" raise their children, some teaching their kids that deities and the supernaturalism are imaginary while others try to "let them decide for themselves" and even "outsource" their children's religious education to believing churches.
More about this general subject, including the Pew organization's initial effort to formulate a new way of categorizing Americans' religious views, is included in the November 2018 NTCOF bulletin here.

JPIT: February 2020
Leaders of four churches, Baptist, Church of Scotland, Methodist and United Reformed, have written an open letter to churches in member states of the European Union.
"The diminishing of political ties and accountability will not affect or impede our commitment to our partners in other parts of Europe. We will continue to play a full and active part in European ecumenical organisations and we will support our congregations and partners in other parts of Europe.
Our Churches will continue to promote the values we share with you, to promote peace and protect human rights and dignity.
We will continue to pursue the concerns we share with you, to ensure the welfare of all citizens and that our Governments are held to account for issues about security, freedom and the sharing of prosperity.
We will continue to work with you on the great challenges of our time; how European nations respond to forced migration, and how we adapt and respond to the climate crisis.
We will continue to remain committed to the principles of solidarity, that have bound us together for many years and to which we must hold fast in a time of increasing xenophobia, religious discrimination, wealth inequality and national self-interest."

CAROLINE MESQUITA
curated by Sofia Lemos
commissioned with Kunsthalle Lissabon
Galeria Municipal do Porto
Astray combines sculpture and moving image, converting it into a temporary museum for aesthetic uncertainty.
Mesquita has previously staged situations in which oxidized brass figures co-inhabit different scenes with visitors, such as a celebration or an airplane crash. In this project, the artist's interestin the body focuses inwards, in that which supports movement and articulation.
For vertebrates this is the possibility of displacement offered by bone structures; in machines, it is the materiality of travel through spatial and timescales and the invention of History. These airplanes, spaceships and motorcycles, all journey in the direction of radical imagination. At Galeria Municipal, Mesquita creates an engine capable of moving through synchronic and diachronic histories of existence and questions its fabrication, both materially and symbolically. The film Astray that lends the title to the exhibition, collates human and nonhuman animals,engines and machines, in a performative relation between the viewer's past, present and future.

Putting an end to bad practices
Although the bulk of waste is now recovered and treated in adequate conditions, some bad practices are still prevailing. Somme waste is still left on the side of the road and sometimes exported or used illegally, and often ends up in the oceans. Such practices are difficult to quantify and to control, as they combine minor offences and much more organised systems. Here-below is a summary of discussions held in Worskhop 3 of the Assises.
The controls carried out by various administrations give the whole picture. Customs, as part of a mission of Interpol that was conducted this year, registered 358 offences committed in France in the transfer of waste, i.e. an increase by 39% compared to 2015. The services that inspected classified facilities visited 2,130 treatment facilities for end-of-life vehicles in six years: they issued 750 formal notices and shut down 145 illegal sites.
Raising awareness to lower the costs. We know the cost of such behaviours
The theft of metals and cables on railways have direct and indirect costs, i.e. the replacement of cables on the one hand and, on the other hand, the compensation of users. More generally, bad practices are often minor everyday-life incivilities – like cigarette butts or packages thrown on the floor and recovered at sea by the Surfrider Foundation – or practices of businesses, often small ones, which are unable to deal with hazardous products. Communication and awareness raising are thus badly needed. A number of local authorities have been trying to cope with that, like the Cellule de Prévention (COPR) of Nantes Métropole, which has been focusing on enhancing the coverage of its territory to promote awareness raising among small businesses.
Teach the right behaviours of impose sanctions?
In the face of private individuals' and businesses' bad practices, awareness raising or community-based solutions like organising signalisation can make the difference. But sanctions, albeit necessarily gradual, may not be excluded, as they have proved to be efficient thanks to their impact on individuals' "wallets"… Local governments thus avail of new tools – fines and penalties – that often allow to quickly put an end to bad practices. But criminal proceedings must also remain an option against mafia-type systems and organised trafficking.
Streamlining initiatives in Europe
The streamlining of initiatives is necessary, for example, for cross-border waste metal streams, as payment in cash, in some bordering countries, create attractiveness, the flight of materials and deadweight effects. Likewise, we know that impurity levels accepted for some products with a view to their recycling, which vary from one country to another, create undesired waste streams. Stakes of international waste streams management and control are high. The European Life Smart Waste project, which aims at coordinating the expertise and practices of national environment agencies to better fight waste-related cross-border crime, is an exemplary action.

Actu'Assises November 2017


The upstairs of our house is down to its studs. A major project is underway. Between now and the vision of a new bathroom and bedroom is a gorge of unimaginable proportions. New inlaid pipes leak like a tin can shot full of holes. We turn the water off, and we turn it back on. The hot water isn't working well. Half way through my shower it turns to ice. I yell. There are spots on the ceiling in the kitchen from the the times the call, "Turn the water off!" didn't bring fast enough results. My laundry room is piled into the dining room, the upstairs guest room into the extra basement room, our bedroom into the basement. A big blue electrical cord winds its way from upstairs to down stairs, across the wall behind the TV. I can't seem to concentrate on the screen with that thing snaked behind it.
I am living in the projects.
Ok, not the real projects, and I have no reason to complain. Ever. But, living in the midst of a major house project is replicated in my spirit. I feel turned upside down, topsy turvy, un-nested. I've lost focus and energy, as if the film of dust that covers the house covers me.
My calm mature husband assures me with steady voice, and patient outspread blackened hands that it is all part of the big project, this tear down must happen in order to build again. He assures me that the house is neither burning up nor falling down. He says that although there have been setbacks, it is all part of the bigger picture.
Yet, it affects me. It's a transition of sorts, and I'm unprepared for this in-between of the old and the new. I'm caught off guard by what is coming out of my cracks, the places where my spirituality and my humanity don't quite meet. I find plenty on which to blame my discontent and shortness. Where before dark crevices hid stuff, now all sorts of junk falls out. Chinks from the projects show dusty streams of light between studs, and like those beams my own undetected issues are highlighted.
I don't want to miss the lessons.
This morning I read, "Whoever has no rule over his own spirit is like a city broken down, without walls," Prov. 25:28. Is that me, Lord? I realize that it isn't the physical walls that are the source of my agitation, it is the inability to live in the situation without letting it rule my spirit. Sure, my surroundings affect my mood and state of being, but it doesn't excuse snarky behavior. When Solomon wrote the verse in Proverbs, a city without walls was a serious problem. It meant the city was open to attack and destruction. My broken down walls mean I am vulnerable too. This agitation and annoyance I feel coming out of my cracks demonstrates a foundation that needs some divine reinforcement.
Wall me in Lord, with your grace and your strength, that when my life is pushed and shoved, jostled by an unruly spirit, You are my stability. You are my security. Shine your light through my cracks and fill my lacking spirit with Yourself.
Wonderful way with words, Sylvia! Let us pray for one another.
Reading this makes me grateful for all these years as a RENTER!!!
Kady, my assistant, brought my attention to this 2-year old blog…timely for today, Sylvia. I love exceptional and thoughtful writing! Sign me up!

Pick of the Day 4/13: Brain Damage at Amherst Cinema
by Gina Beavers | Apr 13, 2018
It's Friday the 13th and if you were a big humdrum, you'd watch Friday the 13th. But because you like to think outside the box, your best bet for horror tonight is Brain Damage! Here's how Amherst Cinema describes this…uh…film. "How do you follow up an all-time cult classic like 1982's BASKET CASE? If you're the one and only Frank Henenlotter, you next unleash BRAIN DAMAGE: his ultimate Grimm's Fairy Tale for perverted adults." Henenlotter says this movie is an "elegy to his former habits." It's gorey, it's slimy, it's New York City, it's the '80s! Finally, it's about an addict who's hooked on "Aylmer." But Aylmer is not just any old drug; Aylmer is a monster–a parasite– that eats brains to survive. And as if that wasn't mean enough, he fills his victim (Brian) with hallucinogens and gets him hooked. And in order for Brian to keep getting high, Brian has to hunt human victims for Aylme so that he can eat their brains. Aylmer, what a guy. Amherst Cinema, 28 Amity St., Amherst. Show time is 9:45 p.m.

Q: How do I trace the source of FastCGI timeout isseus on PHP and IIS 7.5? I have a problem which I am hoping you experts can really help me find the root cause of.
I am getting random page time outs (which manifest as a 500 error) that I cannot find the root cause of.
PHP Version:
PHP 5.5.12 (cli) (built: Apr 30 2014 11:20:11)
Copyright (c) 1997-2014 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.5.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2014 Zend Technologies

IIS Version:
Version 7.5.7600.16385

FastCGI:
C:\Users\lock>%windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd list config -section:system.webSe
rver/fastCgi
<system.webServer>
  <fastCgi>
    <application fullPath="C:\php5\php-cgi.exe" activityTimeout="700">
      <environmentVariables>
      </environmentVariables>
    </application>
  </fastCgi>
</system.webServer>

I have turned on Failed Request Logs and I get the following for random pages:
C:\php5\php-cgi.exe - The FastCGI process exceeded configured activity timeout

Time taken is 700007 msec
Last night, I created 2 files that simply run a very light query on MySQL and ODBC and ran them every minute. Checking this morning, the only file that resulted in a FailedRequest was the ODBC, so I am sure the problem is in connecting to ODBC.
I created a new ODBC data source connecting to the same server and driver, but different database, and still get Timeouts, so I don't think it is the database itself. I'm going to try and see if it is the odbc_pconnect or the odbc_exec function that is timing out. I was able to replicate the issue through my own browser (it hung for almost 15 minutes before producing a FailedRequest Log) and at this time, I was able to fire up another browser and run the same page without issue, so I don't think it is anything to do with table locking on the database or what not.
Any help would be greatly appreciated- we really don't know where to go from here!

Microbes to marketing: Masters of Wine Logroño Symposium
The Institute of Masters of Wine holds a symposium once every four years. It a chance for MWs, MW students and indeed anyone who wants to buy a ticket to meet, listen to top speakers, debate and of course taste a big range of really outstanding wines. Four years ago it was in Florence which was a fantastic experience – four of the best wine days of my life. In 2018 it was the Logroño Symposium, in that famous wine town in Rioja. Could it possibly be as good? The town is not Florence but in every other way, it was just as outstanding. Here is the full programme: LivingWineSymposiumJune2018
The programme is packed. It starts at 8 am if you are up for a power breakfast with a short presentation, the main programme starts at 9.30 and runs straight into a sponsored lunch and then through to dinner. Three nights on the trot I did not get to my hotel until midnight – and I skipped the post-gala-dinner party! Here are a few highlights.
Making pruning sexy: Marco Simonit
Marco is the ultimate cool viticultural dude and is rightly credited with 'making pruning sexy'. Simonit and Sirch are in massive demand as the whole wine industry is threatened with trunk diseases. Growers report losses of 10-20% a year, with dead vines needing to be replanted at enormous cost, the best part of five years of no return. Simonit has resurrected older approaches to pruning. He helps pruners to think about the health of the vine, not the convenience of the grower or picker. The slide below shows the difference between two 15-year-old vines, one badly pruned with lots of black dying wood and one in a healthy state. Fascinating.
No love for (bad) natural wine
One of the trends in the world of wine is the so-called natural wine movement. In brief, this usually means making wine with minimum intervention – without the addition of sulphur, no selected yeasts only and no processing agents (no enzymes to speed the process of pressing, no clarification by means of fining or filtering). We did not discuss this directly but it was clear from audible reactions from the floor that the vast majority of attendees a) find the concept annoying and b) hate the wilder examples of natural wine that can be found on the market. The latter can be cloudy (no problem), and taste as much of vinegar or sweaty saddles as fruit – but can be sold as 'natural' and even healthy. By contrast, the MW community loves the effects of well-administered small doses of sulphur to preserve fruit quality; and it does not like being told that faulty wines are good. Nor does it respond to the word 'natural' being hijacked. If you leave grapes or juice to its own devices the result is vinegar. And all wine has a high claim to being 'natural' – it is the result of the fermentation of juice being carried out in a controlled and monitored way with intervention as necessary to achieve certain desirable goals: fruitiness and a lack of faults as an absolute minimum.
Microbes are the new frontier
The current scientific excitement in the world of wine is the work being done on microbial life in the soil, in the interaction between roots and the soil and in yeasts and in wine. We are the beginnings of learning about the extreme diversity of microorganisms in the soil, within single vineyards and in the roots of vines (30,000 species in a gram of root!) These bacteria, fungi and more affect how the plant assimilates nutrients, its immune response, how it tolerates drought or high temperatures and how they affect varietal expression. Then there are questions about how vineyard management (cover crops, tillage, conventional v. organic v. biodynamic) influences the microbiome or microbiota of a plant or vineyards. These are the terms for the entirety of microbiological life – a new bit of jargon to drop into a wine discussion!
The advances in our understanding are due to the new ability to discover and count what is there. In the past, if you wanted to examine bacteria or yeast cells, you first had to isolate them and grow them on a plate in a lab. Now with a range of high tech means you can check and count them without going through that business and so much quicker. As a result, there is an explosion of new and emerging knowledge.
Perhaps the result of greatest interest to wine lovers to date is the work done on the yeast populations in New Zealand's most famous Chardonnay winery, Kumeu River. Michael Brajkovich MW has used exclusively naturally-occurring yeasts at Kumeu since 1984. Recent university studies have shown 96 strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (the dominant yeast in wine) in just four barrels of Chardonnay at Kumeu. Further, they demonstrated that these strains are significantly different from any other Saccharomyces studied in the world. Here is the first underpinning of the contribution of yeast to a specific terroir. And how are the yeast transported? Take a bow the humble fruit fly which has a remarkably discriminating palate for ripe fruit by aromatic selection! So here is a question for the geeky pub quiz: what do fruit flies and wine buffs have in common? Whoever said science was boring?
The tastings: spoilt for choice
Needless to say the 450 attendees were treated to a fantastic range of tastings. Apparently, during the event, 5,000 bottles of wine were tasted and 20,000 Riedel glasses used – Riedel is one of the principal sponsors of the Institute. That is 44 glasses and 11 bottles of wine per head! Not surprisingly there were three major tastings of wines from Spain. Wines of Argentina, of Greece and Australia provided suitably bibulous, sorry, tasting lunches. 'Discovering new terroirs throughout the world' ranged wildly from England to Japan to new regions of Argentina to 2,500m of altitude in China. But two of the Spanish tastings really stood out. 'The New Spain' was a great showcase for mostly younger growers making crisp, low oaked, wines with the focus on fruit and acidity in a wide range of places. Old vines, local varieties, extreme terroirs, low intervention winemaking. The old stereotype of over-extracted wines, weighty reds with ponderous oak, was well and truly confined to the bin.
But the zenith, at least for me, was the 'Inspirational Spain', the final showcase tasting of Spain's finest wines, with the winemakers or owners introducing them.
Marketing to keep you awake after lunch
Imagine you are the only speaker at a major conference who has a whole hour to fill on his own … and that your slot it directly after lunch (sponsored by Wines of Greece with about 10 wines) and before that a huge walk-around tasting of younger new wave Spain. Well, Michael Walton managed the graveyard slot with aplomb. He interspersed his serious presentation on an 'adaptive wine business' with jokes, ribbing his audience for being slightly drunk (true enough), and getting them to stand up for a version of the options game. And the take aways? Strong organisations have a clear mission and set of core values which are transparently put into practice, a flat management structure, excellent leadership and above all an ability to communicate. Bravo.
Inspirational Spain
My three favourites start with Enoteca Gramona, Gramona, 2001, a magnificent 15 years on the lees, showing how great Cava can be with 75% Xarel.lo and 25% Macabeo – intensely savoury and layered, remarkably long. The bubbles were followed by a wine I have been trying to taste for years but have never seen, Lopez de Heredia's Viña Tondonia, Rosado, 2008, the rosé version of the famous vineyard. Maria Jose Lopez de Heredia explained that it is only made in the exceptional years when there is enough Garnacha to spare for the rosé which would otherwise go into the famous red wine. This is a blend of 60% Garnacha, 30% Tempranillo and 10% white Viura, macerated on the skins for three days, co-fermented, and then aged in used American barrels for two years. Salmon with a bronze tint in colour, initially a quiet if multi-faceted nose with a great crescendo of fruit on the palate: raspberry, peach, smoke and vanilla. Thirdly, Único, Vega Sicilia, Ribera del Duero, 1996, 13.5% was a stunningly good example of Spain's most lauded wine. This is made from the estate's best fruit, 100% Tinto Fino (i.e. Tempranillo) with a remarkable ageing regime which is a testament to the power of the fruit: six years in a mixture of American and French oak barriques and vats, new and used. The wine is released around 10 years of age with extraordinary further ageing potential. This 22-year old example was drinking perfectly: great aromatic range – lifted raspberry and cranberry alongside black cherry and plum, light mushroom tertiary notes, supple body, tight chalky tannins, outstandingly long finish.
Also excellent were: two single-vineyard Mencia-based wine, a further testament to the new Spain: Ultreia, Raul Perez, Bierzo, 2014, 13.5% made in 'back to the past' style (60-day maceration of whole bunches, then aged under flor (!) 6-8 months for a light nuttiness and the elegant, intense and modern take, La Faraona, Descendientes de J. Palacios, Bierzo, 2015, 14%. Last but in no way least, the painfully young Pingus, Ribera del Duero, 2015, 14.5%, made from old vine Tempranillo. It seems a shame for our lucky group to have consumed around 36 bottles of the total 6,500 bottle production when one could really only admire the dense potential of this great wine.
Finally, the Spanish did us proud in their warm hospitality, the fantastic food and the wines poured on the three evenings of the symposium – in the Logroño bullring (discuss!), at individual wineries on the second evening (Bodegas Beronia in my case: thank you!) and finally at the magnificent gala dinner at Marques de Riscal. Tapas, flamenco, Michelin-starred chefs, great array of wine including a 1955 Riserva from their own cellars for 450 guests. No evening is complete without opening three dozen bottles of old wine with the heated tongs method!
