COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: Denmark
RUNNING TIME: 81 min

(en) "For sale! Including 500 violent stonethrowing psyko punks from Hell" – the sarcastic message from the controversial squat Ungdomshuset in Copenhagen. After seven years of political discussions and court proceedings the activists were evicted from their house, popularly known as Jagtvej 69, on March 1 2007. The film takes a balanced look behind the barricades and follows the squatters during the final year before all was demolished and riots broke out in Copenhagen. The four directors, who were the only outsiders allowed access to Jagtvej 69, bring us close to some of the core activists and document their thoughts in dealing with the imminent threat to their continued existence.

(sk) “Na predaj! Vrátane 500 násilných, šutre vrhajúcich, psycho punkáčov z Pekla!” sarkastický odkaz od kontroverzného squatu Ungdomshuset v Kodani. Po siedmich rokoch politických diskusií a po súdnom nariadení boli aktivisti vysťahovaní z ich domu, známeho ako Jagtvej 69, 1. marca 2007. Film poskytuje vyvážený pohľad spoza barikád a sleduje squatterov počas posledného roku predtým, ako bolo všetko zničené a v Kodani prepukli nepokoje. Štyria režiséri, ako jediní civilisti, ktorí boli vpustení do Jagtveju 69, zachytávajú detailný pohľad na zopár skalných aktivistov a dokumentujú ich pocity pri vysporadúvaní sa s hrozbou ich ďalšej existencie.

Country-Style Rigatoni

This pasta dish is great for a party as well as a midweek meal. Grab a glass of Vino, some warm crusty bread, and you're good to go! Not at all complicated to make, and basicly everything's done in one pan!

The sauce is what makes this dish, when all the ingredients mingle together the flavors are out of this world! Trust me, try it!

This recipe comes from Carmine's Family Cookbook, and although I tweeked it just a little bit by adding a little more this, and a little less that, it's pretty much right from the book. Here's my adapted version.

Ingredients:

1/4 cup of Olive Oil

4 or 5 Cloves of Coarsely Choped Garlic

1/2 of a Thinly Sliced White Onion

1/2 to 3/4 lb. of Italian Sausage with Fennel, casings removed

8 large Basil Leaves, chopped

1/4 cup chopped Flat Leaf Parsley

One can of Cannellini Beans, drained and rinsed

2 cups of Chicken Stock

3tbl of Butter

1 cup of grated Romano Cheese

3 slices of Prosciutto rolled up and thinly sliced

12 ounces of Dried Rigatoni

10 Broccoli Spears, 3" long

Salt and Pepper to taste

1. Heat olive oil in a large saute pan, add the onions and garlic.

2. Add sausage, basil and parsley, cook till sausage is nice and brown. Raise heat, add stock and butter, bring to a boil, then simmer for about 5 minutes till sauce thickens a little. Stir in half of the grated cheese and cook for about 3 more minutes till sauce thickens. Add beans, sliced prosciutto, season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.

Meanwhile, cook your pasta in salted boiling water for only 4 minutes. Add broccoli and cook another 3-4 more minutes. Pasta will be nicely al dente. It will cook more in the sauce so don't worry!

4. Drain pasta and broccoli, add to sauce, now add more cheese!

This is so good, I decided to bring a huge pan of this to our Festa Italiana! Don't forget to submit your delicious Italian food or drink now, till March 9th. Maryann and I will be getting the tables ready!

(en) For much of his life, historian Howard Zinn has been chronicling American history from the bottom up, throwing out the official version taught in schools -- with its emphasis on great men in high places -- to focus on the street, the home, and the workplace.

Known for its lively, clear prose as well as its scholarly research, Zinn's A People's History of the United States is the only volume to tell America's story from the point of view of -- and in the words of -- its women, factory workers, African-Americans, Native Americans, working poor, and immigrant laborers. Here we learn that many of our country's greatest battles -- labor laws, women's rights, racial equality -- were carried out at the grassroots level, against steel-willed resistance. This edition of A People's History of the United States features insightful analysis of some of the most important events in this country in the past one hundred years.

Featuring a preface and afterword read by the author himself, this audio continues Howard Zinn's important contribution to a complete and balanced understanding of American history.

(en) Born over 2,400 years ago, warrior, thinker, and leader Sun Tzu lived during a time of great internecine conflict in China. A classic of Chinese literature, Art of War reveals the strategies, tactics, and insights that lead to success. Mastery of warfare and the maintenance of power are the most important values in Sun's philosophy--without which there can be no peace or life. According to Sun, studying your enemy, detecting his weakness, allowing him to expose himself and then acting accordingly is the key to success. But, it is perhaps even more important to master the skill of winning without fighting. Sun's battle-proven strategies have been put into practice by countless leaders--from Mao Tse-tung to Napoleon to the planners of Operation Desert Storm. Filled with practical wisdom and strategy Art of War is an indispensable guide for anyone who wants an edge over the competition.

(en) "Let thy Food be thy Medicine and thy Medicine be thy Food." -- Hippocrates

That's the message from the founding father of modern medicine echoed in the controversial new documentary film 'Food Matters' from first-time Producer-Directors James Colqhuoun and Laurentine ten Bosch.

"With nutritionally-depleted foods, chemical additives and our tendency to rely upon pharmaceutical drugs to treat what's wrong with our malnourished bodies, it's no wonder that modern society is getting sicker. 'Food Matters' sets about uncovering the trillion dollar
worldwide "Sickness Industry" and giving people some scientifically verifiable solutions for curing disease naturally." - James

And in what promises to be the most contentious idea put forward, the filmmakers have interviewed several world leaders in nutrition and natural healing who claim that not only are we harming our bodies with improper nutrition, but that the right kind of foods, supplements and detoxification can be used to treat chronic illnesses as fatal as terminally diagnosed cancer.

'Food Matters' is to be launched globally via the internet using full screen video technology.

Weekly Wino: Fresh from the Archives

I Vini Paesani

I wrote this way back in May of 2006 when I was living in Italy. If ever you wanted a little slice of Italian life, you can taste here.

That translates as "country wine," but the meaning is closer to home-made wine. I want to talk about this part of Italian wine life because is exists and is very important to the common Italian.

There is a large market for these unlabeled bottles and they are consumed in many homes as the daily table wine. This bottle is of the more "professional" variety, as it is sold in a 750 ml bottle with a cork. Many times, il vino paesano is packaged in old glass water bottles, or even 1.5 liter plastic water bottles. You can see in the photo to the right, the "label" is handwritten and says Gragnano. Gragnano is a slightly sweet and very fizzy red made on the Sorrento Peninsula. If you've ever had a lambrusco amabile, you have an idea of what this tastes like.

The first time that I ever tried vino paesano, I was 22 years old and in Venice. I had lost myself in the winding streets and happened upon a wine store. Inside was a very rotund man with a beard and an apron, and he explained to me that the 9 HUGE straw-covered casks on display were fresh wines brought in from all over the Veneto. Fresh wines! I'd never heard of this. Enthusiastically I asked for a bottle, and he asked me if I had one for him to fill. Of course not! He went to the back, brought out an empty plastic water bottle (1.5 L) and filled it with red. At that time, I paid about 3 dollars (still being a student, this was a pleasant surprise), carried my bottle with me, and shared it with my friend and a rowdy group of Italians on the train back to Florence. It was wonderful because I had found a new wine experience.

By now, I have tried just about every local varietal in its paesano version. In Ischia, that would mean the having tried the less-common-on-the-mainland biancolella (white), per'e'palummo/piedirosso (red). AND, there have even been times when the "uvaggio," or varietal(s) was unknown, even to its contadino (farmer) winemaker.

Wherever in Italy wine is made, (everywhere!), you are sure to find a local paesano production of the regional wines. They are neither fabulous nor complex, and sure never to win any distinction. They can be too sour, too tannic, or even oxidized--but if you find the right supplier, they can also be delicious and fun and just the right compliment to that rabbit braised in a clay pot.

They are certainly not perfect, and one cannot expect the same wine that comes out of a bottle, but they are an experience worth having because to the farmer who makes them, they are a manifestation of his passion for the land, they are his own personal work of art, they are his pride in a bottle that his wife lovingly puts on the table every day for the family. These wines are a pure expression of the important part of Italian culture that takes what nature has given locally and turns it into a sacred familial ritual of eating well every day.

These wines are the bare, simple truth of the vine, brought to fermented life by the hand that has worked his land for generations. It is local, rustic, and Italian; it is a way to get closer to the real culture, and for that, it is special.

Sign a petition To Restore The Rights Of The Indigenous People Of Sarawak

(en) When bulldozers came to the ancestral lands of the Iban, in the Sarawak region of Malaysia, Segan Anak Degon stood up to defend his land.

Today Segan is the the only person out of 101 families whose land remains unaffected by the oil palm that swept through the region.

What Rainforest? is a 36-minute documentary about his struggle.

“What Rainforest? has all the necessary ingredients for a thrilling Hollywood blockbuster” describes an independent reviewer: “A stoic hero and his long-suffering wife. Ruthless land-grabbing corporations. A plot that wove a tale of David minus his slingshot versus Goliath. Of conviction of strength in the face of greed, gangsters and cockamamie policies. And also a credible supporting cast and beautiful long-range and wide angle shots of one of the world’s oldest rainforests.

“But What Rainforest? neither thrilled nor entertained.

“Of course, the co-producers of this 36-minute documentary – Hilary Chiew and chi too – never intended for it to. Instead, they succeeded all too well in making you burn as you watch the outright trampling of basic rights of the indigenous Iban folk and their ancestral lands.

“When oil palm barons began encroaching onto their native customary rights (NCR) land with claims of buyovers sanctioned by the government, the families in Kampung Lebur, near Kuching in Sarawak, were devastated.

“One man stood his ground. Segan anak Degon was the only one of 101 families who managed to hold off an oil palm plantation from replacing his ancestral patch of forest which included his paddy field and fruit trees planted by his forefathers.

“Like his fellow villagers, the forest was the sole source of livelihood for Segan and his wife. But unlike his fellow villagers, Segan fought … and won. And this is his story.

The Second Annual "Festa Italiana" Announcement!

I'm so excited to be announcing the 2nd annual Festa Italiana!! I can't believe a year has gone by since my blog sister Maryann of Finding La Dolce Vita and I, hosted this wonderful event.

What made this event so great were the people that came to it, our many friends we've come to know so well from all over this virtual world! We like to to imagine our festa, as how it would truly be if we all gathered together literally. Huge tables set under twisting grapevines, Italian food and drink from one end to the other, laughing, singing, and dancing, while the sound of mandolins playing in the background, of course with out a doubt Sinatra and Dino too!
Last year we were amazed at all the scrumptious dishes you brought here and here.

Please join us again!

To participate here's what you have to do:

* Create an Italian dish or drink
* Post about it on your blog
* Use our badge and link back to both Maryann and I. The links should refer to this announcement post, and also Maryann's, so others can participate.
* Photograph your dish and send a copy no bigger than 350 pixels wide, along with your name, your blog's name and url, the name of your dish or drink, and of course the link to that post.
* Email everything to this one address, festaitalianadishes@gmail.com.

Thats it!

We will be accepting your entries starting today, all the way till March 9th. We will begin posting your dishes on March 2nd, after that we'll add your entries as they arrive.

This is not going to be my entry dish to the festa, I'm still deciding what I should bring, I work good under pressure!! but if you're a coffee lover, then you're going to love this light and refreshing dessert. A great ending to a heavy meal. Granita's are just as satisfying as a bowl of ice cream, without all the calories.

The ingredients are simple, 2 cups of brewed coffee,(cooled down), 1/2 cup of milk, 1 Tbl. of sugar, and 2/3 cup of a good coffee liqueur, like kaluha. I had a couple of those miniature bottles so I used that.

Mix everything together, and freeze it all in a shallow pan for at least 2 hours. Flake with a fork.

Serve with a dollop of vanilla whipped cream!

Looking forward to "seeing" everyone at the Festa! Until then,

Buon appetito!!

i loved the oscars!

OK, Once again, I stayed up all night to watch the Oscars, and I am so tired. But, it was so worth it. I just loved it.



Not since Billy Crystal has an opening number been so good. Hugh Jackman was just great.

The set was beautiful, I loved everything about it, including the Swaravski curtain, the raised orchestra, and the different set backgrounds.

I thought the five past winners introducing and personalizing the nominees was so touching, and MUCH more interesting and meaningful than how they are normally done. I loved it.

The musical number Hugh did, with Beyonce, and the High School Musical kids was great. The nominated songs performance was great.

No boring speeches by accountants or presidents. And the acceptance speeches were less annoying this year.

There were some really funny presenters and skits, including Natalie Portman and Ben Stiller. Ben was funny, and could Natalie Portman BE any more beautiful?

There were many beautiful dresses, but I think Natalie and Anne Hathaway and Taraji Hensen were my favorite. Jessica Biel is beautiful but I did not like her dress. At all.

Sorry, I am too tired to go into any detail. I just wanted to say, Bravo!



I loved it. (can you tell?)

Update: I have been reading reviews of the show, and can not believe that people are saying it was boring or not suprising, or that the introductions were bad. These people are not fans. They don't know what they are talking about. I thought it was spectacular! The winners weren't surprising, but when you have 10 award shows leading up to the Oscars, you can't blame the Oscars.

Don't believe the miserable media, Hugh Jackman did fabulous, and the whole show was great.

(en) Return of the Scorcher This half-hour documentary looks at bike culture and bike lifestyles around the world with beautiful and inspiring scenes of bike use filmed in China, The Netherlands, Denmark, and the U.S.

In the 1890s, before automobiles ruled the roads, bicyclists were referred to as "Scorchers" because of their blazing speed. A century later, in a world filled with car-related environmental and social problems, Return of the Scorcher discovers an inspired and evolving bicycling renaissance.

This documentary touches on a surprising variety of subjects including romance, rebellion, early feminism, and spirituality - all viewed within the context of bicycling. Return of the Scorcher questions our obsession with "progress" and status and presents a diverse cross-section of cycling visionaries who see the bicycle as a life-affirming vehicle for change.

This portrait of a year in the life of a class of Parisian middle school students focuses on the ethnically diverse children who comprise the group and their dedicated teacher, François Marin.

Loire Valley Part Deux: Our Queasy Quarts de Chaume Drive-By

As only I am capable of, on our second day of of touring the Loire Valley, I managed to score some sort of first-class stomach funk.

After the Joly winery tour on day one, we drove into Rochefort to find the hotel that Virginie booked for us. Driving through the town square, my eyes immediately spotted a sign that read "Chaume." Jeremy and I had already decided to visit one more town/winery on the way back to Paris the next day--we were thinking more along the lines of Chinon. But seeing Chaume, as in !!OMG-Quarts-du-Chaume!!, changed my mind.

Quarts de Chaume AOC, if you don't know, is one of those revelatory dessert wine appellations. Esoteric and obscure though it may be, it is definitely worth the hunt. Let me take you back in time...

August 2008: Jeremy came to Austin to visit me for the first time. On his second and last day, I cooked dinner. He had never tasted a Quarts de Chaume before. I bought a half-bottle of Baumard from Austin Wine Merchant. It was incredibly memorable and now sentimental.

**Cue back to present-day LOIRE and my excessive rambling.**

So, Quarts de Chaume is produced entirely with botrytized Chenin Blanc grapes. It has that characteristic botrytis nose, but the chosen varietal lends such an incredible minerality and nervous acidity that its perfect balance of sugar and acid with that salty sprinkle of terroir-driven mineral will make you FORGET about ever wanting a Sauternes. Semillion just can't deliver what Chenin can. We had the '05, so I can only imagine how wonderfully this wine would age.

The land area for this AOC is roughly 70 acres, and the maximum yields are appropriately low.

After all of this raving about QdC, I have to say that it was the very last thing I could stomach under the relentless wave of nausea that hit me on day 2. I asked Jeremy to very gently drive me through the undulating vineyards on curvy roads so that I could at least see what I was missing while trying not to leave a bit of myself in the terroir.

The village of Chaume consists of exactly 3 adjacent houses, a man with dark hair, and a horse. Driving through the vineyards, it was clear that the vines were all quite old (40-50 years, at least), many of them head-trained. These kinds of vines were a pleasantly ubiquitous site that may lose something in the transition from reality to digital image. I trust that some of you out there may appreciate it, nonetheless.

It was quite the dream fulfilled being able to poke around this favored corner of the Loire Valley. The air was clean and crisp, much like the wines, and the villages were absolutely charming.

I love good values from regions overshadowed by flashier, more expensive wines from regions famous for being famous. While a good Quarts de Chaume may not be what most consider cheap at $35ish per half-bottle, it offers a product that has more soul and class in its recently-released-375 mLs than an average Sauternes could ever hope to offer, even after 10 years in the bottle. Not that the latter has no merit--we all know that a great Sauternes can be quite thrilling--but a truly great one is simply cost-prohibitive for most of us.

Locally, Baumard Quarts de Chaume, 2005 is available at Austin Wine Merchant. Run, don't walk!

(en) The term Green Scare, alluding to the Red Scares of the 1910-20's and 1940s-50s, is an expression used to refer to recent actions taken by the U.S. government against the radical environmentalist movement. It seems to have been coined in a 2002 edition of a prisoner support zine or newsletter, Spirit of Freedom. The publication defined the Green Scare as "the tactics that the US government and all their tentacles (FBI, IRS, BATF, Joint Terrorism Task Forces, local police, the court system) are using to attack the ELF/ALF (Earth Liberation Front and Animal Liberation Front) and specifically those who publicly support them."
The term has now been widely used to describe an early 2006 sweep of arrests, convictions and grand jury indictments of alleged ELF/ALF activists on charges relating to acts of property damage, conspiracy, arson and use of destructive devices dubbed "Operation Backfire."

We are the traffic
A Movie about Critical Mass
50 minute documentary directed by Ted White



INFO+BUY:
http://www.tedwhitegreenlight.com/cm.htm

(en) We Are Traffic! chronicles the history and development of the "Critical Mass" bicycle movement-- one of the most spirited and dynamic social/political movements of the apathetic 90's. In over 200 cities in 14 different countries, Critical Mass has now become a monthly ritual of reclaiming the streets by bicycle activists riding en masse.

With traffic congestion, pollution, and road rage on the rise, growing numbers around the world are advocating for transportation alternatives, and Critical Mass is at the cutting edge of this mindset.

We Are Traffic! tracks this leaderless, grassroots movement from its beginnings in San Francisco in 1992 to its spread across the globe. With a radical direct-action approach the participants of Critical Mass are celebrating the bicycle and in turn taking on perhaps the century's most sacred cow: the automobile.

(sk) Tento film dokumentuje históriu a vývoj cyklistického hnutia "Critical Mass" - jedného z najodvážnejších a najdynamickejších sociálno/politických hnutí apatických deväťdesiatych rokov. Vo viac ako 200 mestách v 14 rôznych krajinách, Critical Mass sa teraz stalo mesačným rituálom obsadzovania ulíc aktivistom s bicyklami vo veľkom.

(en) Vividly reveals the dysfunctionality of the industrialized world food system and shows what world hunger has to do with us.
We Feed the World is a documentary in which Austrian filmmaker Erwin Wagenhofer traces the origins of the food we eat and views modern industrial production of food in a critical light. His journey takes him to France, Spain, Romania, Switzerland, Brazil and back to Austria.

(cz) Ideální dokument, pokud chcete zjistit něco bližšího o velkovýrobě potravin. Jaké jsou rozdíly mezi rybami vylovenými soukromými rybáři s malými loďkami oproti "hromadnému" lovu velkými loďmi? Proč se vyplatí státům celé Evropy a velké části Asie dovážet skleníková rajčata z Almerie, přestože sami mají dobré podmínky pro jejich pěstování? Jak vypadá zemědělství v Rumunsku, po Francii druhé zemi Evropy v produkci zemědělských produktů? Jak se v Evropě chovají a následně zpracovávají kuřata? A věděli jste, že jeden metr čtvereční Amazonského pralesa v Brazílii se dá bez problémů koupit za 1 cent? Amazonie je protkaná sójovými plantážemi, sója se dováží jako krmivo do Evropy a například Rakouská pšenice se místo toho pálí pro získání energie (a pak nám vyčítají Temelín)... Odpovědi na tyto otázky jsou mnohdy docela šokující a stojí za to je znát, stejně jako některé "úžasné" názory šéfa největšího světového potravinového koncernu Nestlé...

sanremo festival 2009

It's that time of year again. Tomorrow night is the finale. These are my favorites. This first one, Arisa, singin *Sincerita*, is so cute. She is so nervous! I love the song. Adorable. She is in the *young, unknown artist* category.

The others, Dolcenera, singing *Il mio amore unico*, and Francesco Renga, singing *l'uomo senza età* who are two of my all time favs!

And this third one I like, by Povia, who won last year. There was a lot of controversy surounding his song, before the festival, because the title of his song is Luca era gay (Luca was gay). It is about a guy who used to be in a gay relationship, but is now married to a woman.

All the other artist videos are here.

Hugh Hefner was there, for I believe the launch of Italian Playboy and the anniversary of Playboy. He was on stage, with his three girlfriends, and the current Bunny, and some lady ran up on the stage naked. She yelled something, but you couldn't hear her. I thought maybe she was from Peta, but couldn't get the connection to Hugh Hefner.... haha

Turns out she is a porno star, Laura Perego, so she, I guess, was trying to get Hugh's attention. I don't think it worked... afterwards he asked, "was the a joke? was that for real?" haha

UPDATE: Yeah! Arisa won for her category, new artists!!

But, I am very bummed that Dolcenera didn't make it through the cut last night. I don't know HOW that happened. grrr

But, yeah for Arisa!

(en) As a study release by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) early this year (see here) shows, the arms industry has been making more money than ever before in history. Citing www.controlarms.org:

Each year, at least a third of a million people are killed directly with conventional weapons and many more are injured, abused, forcibly displaced and bereaved as a result of armed violence. In armed conflicts, the lives of skilled people are lost, infrastructure such as schools, clinics and homes are lost; economic production and markets disappear and investment takes flight. Even outside wartime, government arms purchases can exceed legitimate security needs, diverting substantial amounts of money away from health and education. In ‘peace time’, the presence and availability of arms often intensifies violence engendered by political protest, disputes between neighbours, crime and violence in the home.

Thanks to hundreds of NGOs the UN member states are now working on an Arms Trade Treaty.

The documentary by Paul Moreira and David André “Waffenhandel - Ein Bombengeschäft”/”Des Armes a Abattre” broadcasted by arte.tv September this year shows the cruel reality of the arms trade.
