Ten years after releasing the acclaimed film, Mondovino, Jonathan Nossiter is back in theaters with his newest film, Résistance Naturelle.
It examines vineyards in Italy that are cultivating their grapes organically and others that are using chemicals and pesticides. He then compares the soil quality and harvest yields of the different cultivation methods. It's not strictly a documentary as he blends some narrative filmmaking in with the documentary.
Released in theaters since June 2014.

"Chanel has her No. 5. I have my Charles Heidsieck Champagne cellar No. 9."
- Cecile Bonnefond, President of Charles and Piper Heidsieck

The Charles Heidsieck cellars in Reims, Champagne are legendary. They are some of the best examples of the crayères, the chalk-stone cellars, that are so emblematic of Champagne. These were first excavated by the Romans some 2000 years ago. The stones were then used to the build the city of Reims, a city that was once the capital of France.
If you take a look at the picture here of cellar (crayéres) No. 9, you will see that it resembles the shape of a bottle. The team, led now by Cecile Bonnefond, took that as inspiration to model a new bottle for Champagne Charles Heidsieck. So the bottle shape is inspired by Crayères No. 9 from deep inside the depths of their champagne cellars in Reims.
The cellars have even more historical significance as they were used as shelters during the wars of the last century. There is no elevator to get you back up once you're several hundred feet below ground. So if you do ever get the chance to visit these cellars in Champagne, wear comfortable shoes.

You can catch my interview with Thierry Desseauve on my World of Wine program on World Radio Paris next week. Until then, a few photos from the event. By the way, le Winelab is designed to showcase and highlight smaller French (primarily) wine producers. The ones that people in the know, know about, before they get super expensive.

Recently I had the chance to taste a Szamorodni 1971, a Tokaji « Grand Liquoreux » made by Samuel Tinon.
This was only the second time I've tasted a Tokaj so I daresay that from herein out my palate is completely spoilt. I understand, too, now, why it is said that this was the preferred wine of King Louis XIV.
I do enjoy France's Sauternes, but aside from their both being sweet wines, the two varieties have little else in common.
It was explained to me that the Tokaji Sweet Szamorodni is a lighter version of the great Tokaji Aszù, the more famous Tokaj wine. In Polish « szamorodni » means « like it comes. » Connoisseurs find it a surprising wine and the French wine critics Bettane & Desseauve put it in its own class and category as a « Meditation Wine. »
Serve at 10°C and in big glasses to allow for the wines' aromatic complexity to be enjoyed.
For Aperitif : Dried fruits, nuts, almonds, cocktail toasts with blue cheeses
Starters : Fresh melon, foie gras
Desserts : Macarons, lemon tart, marzipan, fruit tarts, desserts with nuts and almonds
By themselves, in front of a fireplace or a multi-hued evening sunset overlooking a tranquil setting, one that invites a meditative moment.
Technical notes : There is no sulphur added ; residual sugar is at 115 g/l. Grape varieties are 90% Furmint and 10% Harslevelü. Hungarian State control gave this a 10/10.

In a truly wonderful demonstration of Bollinger's credo, Life Can Be Perfect (with Bollinger), the day of the SPIT competition unfolded delightfully in Aÿ, France…

Competition was held at Bollinger Maision and Cellars in Ay, France. With the generous sponsorship of Bollinger, Fouquet's Barrière, IdealWine, Le Cordon Bleu, Lehmann Glass, Chateau Latour and many more…
by Paige Donner (with some translation from French original)
After much contemplation, and repeatedly going back to the drawing board, Madame Lily Bollinger at long last decided on the term Récémment Degorgé for her prestige champagne.
The date was 1963 and it was during this era that the notion of Prestige Cuvées was starting to pick up tempo in Champagne.
Consulting with her American disstribution agent, she decided to release several of her prestige 1947 Réserve bottles onto the market as prestige releases. What followed was nothing short of a small revolution « champenoise ».
Bollinger R.D. 2002 – Time Rarity Boldness
The nose is quince, ripe fruits, a bit of honey. The palate gives way to a carnal encounter, powerful but balanced with great persistence. The finish hints at lemon notes revealing a lovely citrus. Consume at a temp. of 12°C
The highly original idea that Madame Bollinger had at the time was to choose a great – and older – vintage, one that had only recently been disgorged and then give it only the lightest hint of a dosage, not more than an Extra Brut. At the time, this was a daring approach to releasing a new product on the market as consumers then were not accustomed to older vintage champagnes. But she followed her intuition and worked with her team to communicate to her loyal clientele the significance of a late-disgorged champagne.
In a Bollinger R.D. champagne what you will find is the freshness of Grand Cru champagne along with the developed aromas of a vintage champagne, one that you can keep for a long time. It has everything to do with the « Recently Disgorged » aspect, as that is what has allowed the champagne to mature on the lees for more than a decade, in the case of Bollinger R.D.s, and its recent disgorgement also recalibrates its freshness.
Bollinger R.D. is the perfect testament to our everlasting loyalty to Madame Bollinger and her vision for the House of Bollinger Champagne . – Jérôme Philipon, Président de Champagne Bollinger
It was in 1967 that Madame Bollinger and the House finalized the name of R.D. after toying with several others ( Late Disgorged, Late Disgorged Reserve) and retained the title Récémment Degorgé for their prestige label.
Several vintages were released simultaneously on the market that initial year of commercialization : the 1952 to the English market, the 1953 in Switzerland and France, and for the U.S. market and Italy the 1955. It was with the 1959 vintage that the house first did a full-on international release of the prestige cuvée.
This newest R.D. release, the 2002, will stand out among greats. The 2002 vintage in Champagne is one of the best in recent history. For this blend, the house of Bollinger blended 23 crus using 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. 79% are Grand Crus and 21% are Premier Crus. The maturation of this wine is more than 3 times longer than is mandated by the Champagne AOC regulations. The dosage is very light, no more than 3 or 4 gr. per liter thus keeping it very much an Extra Brut.
In addition to the exceptional quality of this champagne, all bottles are handled exclusively by hand. This 2002 release, which marks the 50th anniversary of the Bollinger R.D. prestige cuvée, is available in a case of 6 bottles, a luxury gift box, a magnum and even a limited edition Jerobaum (price upon request).

Nicklas Backstrom says he's physically ready to play but is concerned about taking another blow to the head.
Capitals Talk
The Capitals got the two points in Boston by way of an amazing shootout finish. Here is a closer look at how Washington beat Tim Thomas.
Nicklas Backstrom is on the verge of returning and Alan May and Chuck Gormley have an idea as to how he should be brought back.
Capitals forward Jason Chimera was tossed from Thursday night's game for a charging major but is unlikely to face further discipline from the NHL.
Brooks Laich netted the game-winner and might have saved the season for the Capitals.

Score distribution:
Positive: 1 out of 4
Mixed: 3 out of 4
Negative: 0 out of 4
If the film ultimately amounts to little more than a middle-aged coming-of-age story, it's richly imagined and filled fanciful touches in keeping with its passionate subject.
A drama that steadily succumbs to self-conscious artiness, drunk on its own sense of contrived poetry and cloudy existential reflection.
The film's arresting beauty--shots of a curtain blowing into a shadowed stairwell, or a meadow of sunflowers, or a head resting on a shoulder--is nearly enough.
The Man of My Life is a sumptuously illustrated but shallow fable of the grass-is-greener conflict between freedom and commitment.

Okay, this totally freaked me out.
Haha, I would so go there to laugh at the guy. Unless he's hot o.O Which..is kinda weird..I should work at that place..JUST to laugh at them.Quote:
Nikolai Grushevski, a man from Corpus Christi, has filed a lawsuit because Hooters wouldn't let him work as a waiter, which we guess would be called a Hooters Boy.
"Hooters tries to circumvent the law by referring to its waiters as 'Hooters Girls.' Hooters is wrong," claims the lawsuit, filed yesterday in federal court in Corpus. "Just as Southwest Airlines attempted nearly three decades ago with stewardesses, the waiter's position addressed herein is being limited to females by an employer '...who merely wishes to exploit female sexuality as a marketing tool to attract customers and insure profitability.'"
Exactly. Thankfully, the lawsuit says that Grushevski isn't trying to stop the restaurant from hiring Hooters Girls.

Police arrest two for attempted smoke shop robbery in Rochester
ROCHESTER – Police arrested two local men and charged them with trying to break into Jimmy's Smoke Shop on North Main Street early Monday morning.

Looking for the perfect venue with great food and only the best service?? Ripples at Chowder Bay is you best bet! Wanting somewhere special for my Mothers 50th Birthday Celebration lunch I could not be happier with our choice of Ripples. From the first phone call organising the booking, the staff were extremely friendly in assisting our requests right through to the end of our relaxing afternoon where we were not hurried to leave the restaurant. The Garlic and Rosemary bread is a must have, with all 10 of us quick to order a second round. All ordering different dishes from their extensive menu the staff were extremely quick and efficient. The views and atmosphere are only part of the great Ripples experience. I would HIGHLY recommend this restaurant to anyone!
We had lunch at Ripples at Chowder Bay today and had a lovely lunch. The food was a high quality and well presented, and the service was excellent. We couldn't have wanted for a better place to celebrate my father's 75th birthday.
I just love the whole experience of Ripples at Chowder Bay-walking across the beach to the restaurant (you can go via the road as well) the beautiful big relaxed deck with magnificent views or the lovely heritage building if you prefer inside.
I had a birthday dinner there recently with 10 friends.
Most of us started with the very fresh scallops with pea puree mint and pancetta. For mains, we had veal saltimbocca with parsley and lemon butter-just the right amount of tang, confit of duck with sour cherry jus; Spanish mackerel, all excellent and I love the crispy baked rosemary potatoes. The passionfruit dessert with coconut biscotti was rich and creamy. We went BYO and the bill was just over $600 for 11 of us which I think is good value.
The staff were attentive and did not get huffy when we were the last to leave.

Browns bar owner issues apology after ban on soldiers before funeralby ITV Central
Police are appealing for calm tonight after threats were posted online against Browns Bar in Coventry which refused to serve two soliders in uniform.
They were pall bearers at the funeral of their comrade, Corporal Michael Thacker, who was killed in Afghanistan and had gone to the bar to buy hot drinks before the ceremony.
The story has triggered a furious response on Facebook with more than sixty thousand people signing a campaign attacking the bar's owner.
And there have been more sinister threats warning of attacks against the bar.
Today the owner, Ken Brown, spoke to Central Tonight and apologised for what happened on Monday.
Corporal Thacker's widow has accepted the apology but police are now concerned about the anger online.
– Chief Inspector Kerry Blakeman, Coventry Local Policing
"Whilst I understand people's feelings, and that emotions are running high, I feel we must draw a line under this matter and would appeal for calm especially in relation to posts made on social media sites.
"We will monitor social media messages posted in relation to this and investigate any genuine threats against people or property."

AUBURN, Ala. -- The Auburn Tigers begin the stretch run in Southeastern Conference play this weekend with a crucial home series against SEC West rival Mississippi State at Plainsman Park.
Game times are set for 6 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 1 p.m. Sunday.
The Tigers (25-20, 9-12 SEC) will look to build on the momentum of a big road series win at Arkansas last weekend as the Tigers took two of three from the Razorbacks. Auburn should be well-rested after having the midweek off due to final exams.
Mississippi State (28-18, 11-10 SEC) is seeking a bounce-back weekend after dropping two of three at home to Texas A&M last week, along with falling to Jacksonville State in a midweek game Wednesday in Starkville.
Saturday's game will be televised by CSS with Matt Stewart and Joe Beckwith on the call. The broadcast will also be available online at ESPN3.com.
Rod Bramblett and Andy Burcham will be on the mic for the Auburn IMG Sports Network. The broadcast can be heard locally in Auburn on WGGZ 94.3 FM, and fans can access live audio and live stats at AuburnTigers.com. Fans can also follow @AUTigerBaseball on Twitter for inning-by-inning updates throughout the weekend.

Kids Run the Bases: Kids 12 and under are invited to the field to run the bases following the game
Chef's Corner: Pot roast sandwich on a crusty roll with fried onion and gravy, fried chips
Auburn is 73-88 all-time against Mississippi State, but 40-30 in games played in Auburn.
The Tigers have won the last 4 home series against Mississippi State at Plainsman Park, dating back to 2008.
Auburn did not commit an error in the three-game series at Arkansas, the Tigers' second error-free SEC series of the season (Tennessee).
The Tigers are 5-2 in series-opening games in SEC play this year.
Sophomore Jordan Ebert enters the week as the third-leading hitter in the Southeastern Conference (.364).
Senior RHP Dillon Ortman is 8-2 going into the week, 5-1 in conference play; both marks tie for the most wins in the SEC.
Freshman RHP Keegan Thompson has the SEC's fourth-best ERA (1.74) and third-lowest opposing batting average (.194).
Auburn's weekend starting rotation has an ERA of 2.27, which ties for 11th-best in the nation.
Auburn ranks third in the SEC with 68 stolen bases this year. Auburn is on pace for 84 steals in the regular season, which would rank seventh in school history for a single-season.
If the season ended today, Auburn's team ERA of 2.86 would be the first season ERA under 3.00 since 1976 and the ninth-best in school history.
Auburn is unranked.
Mississippi State is ranked No. 23 by the NCBWA and USA Today Coaches' polls and No. 28 by Collegiate Baseball.
Auburn will host Bethune-Cookman for a midweek non-conference game on Tuesday, May 6, before making the final SEC road trip of the year to Kentucky next Friday-Sunday, May 9-11.

Ever Hear the One About Hamlet's Mother?

In the 1970s, conceptualist Joseph Kosuth said, "The only people who care about art are artists." That's changed. But is the art world of greater interest to people outside of it because art has become more interesting or because art is a hot property? Is the market creating a competitive atmosphere that drives artists to produce better work or is it mainly fostering empty product?
If there's a silver lining to this golden cloud it's that despite how professional and "smart" it is made out to be, the market is still inherently blinkered, erratic, and insecure. As such it is simultaneously vulnerable and a force of chaos. As almost everyone in the art world knows, chaos is usually good for art. At the end of the day art still has a private inside and a public outside. It still exudes an alchemical otherness. In our studios and before artworks we still experience moments of authentic serenity, passion, and meaningfulnessplaces on the edge of language that the market can't strip away. In this imperfect realm we can intuit the elemental feeling that sometimes, just by making or looking at art, we might glimpse the full range of human possibilities. The market is art minus otherness. The rest is gossip.

Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy was back at practice on Friday and should play on Sunday. He had missed Wednesday and Thursday's sessions because he was sick.
McCoy ran for 119 yards in Monday night's loss to the New Orleans Saints, four yards shy of matching his best rushing game of the season. The Eagles on Sunday face the Dallas Cowboys.
Fantasy Impact: McCoy was expected back on Friday and there was no real concern about his availability for this weekend. McCoy remains one of the most explosive backs in the NFL but fantasy owners get frustrated when the offense stops going through him.
McCoy, as usual, should be considered a No. 1 fantasy running back in most formats for Week 10.

text: Fahrenheit 451 and Censorship Introduction The futuristic world of Fahrenheit 451 is one where all media is censored and books are burned. It might seem like science fiction, but censorship is very real. Not only is history riddled with examples of censorship, but it continues to this day. Task Your group is to research censorship in your assigned time period and area. While going through the assigned readings, you are to consider the following questions: What is censorship? What are the different types of censorship? Who is responsible for this censorship and who/what benefits from it? Who suffers? Why is censorship used in this situation? What purpose does it serve? How do those being censored respond? Task You will summarize the information from your research and present the answers to these questions in class using visuals like PowerPoint, posters, film, and more. Be creative! Soldier's Letters Your group will research censorship of soldier's letters in various wars. You will use the following resources for your presentation: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/warletters/sfeature/sf_censorship. html -- PBS interview about the history of letter censorship http://www.nps.gov/archive/gett/GETTKIDZ/letters.htm -- article about soldier's letters with a paragraph on censorship http://iml.jou.ufl.edu/projects/Spring03/Berringer/Censorshippage. htm -- article about letter censorship http://www.fsu.edu/~ww2/censor.htm -- a picture of a censored World War II letter http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-514197/Found-The- romantic-letters-wartime-lovers-used-code-beat-censors.html -- British romantic letter-writers who beat the censors Goals Ultimately, at the end of the assignment, you will be able to identify censorship, understand why it happens, why it is used, and why it would be a problem in a free society. Requirements 1. Defining the problem Includes a visual of the affected area. Clear explanation of the problem is given. Specific examples used to clarify the problem. Definition of censorship provided that specifically relates to area being addressed Discussion of who is responsible for this censorship. Presents theory explaining the reasons why this type of censorship occurred/is occurring (i.e., who benefits?). Discussion of who is impacted and the response of impacted group(s). Explains whether the situation was resolved. If so, how? Requirements 2. Connections Discussion of how this example of censorship is related to our current world and/or the world described in Fahrenheit. 3. Overall quality of presentation Students are prepared and demonstrate appropriate level of seriousness. Handouts are neat and well planned. Relatively few grammatical errors in handouts and/or powerpoint presentation. Obvious effort put into project. Required little (if any) teacher input to ensure comprehensiveness of presentation as a learning tool for other students.

The previously on segment focuses on the immunity idol Marcus and Randy threw away, so I guess we haven't seen the last of it after all. Amazingly enough, Probst credits the Fang alliance with "brilliant strategy" in how they took the Onion alliance out. We see Randy play his fake idol again, and Sugar laughing her ass off. "Sending him home and humiliating him at the same time," Probst says, as we see a hilarious shot of Randy being eliminated with dissolves of Sugar laughing in slow motion. There's a new scene with Bob, where he says that Sugar didn't just say "ha ha" at Randy's misfortune, she laughed for a long time, and this irritated him. I wonder if it irritates him now that he's read post-show interviews where Randy said he hopes Bob has a heart attack.
Nobag returns to camp following Tribal Council. Sugar declares that the best Tribal Council so far, and Ken asks Bob if it was his idea to give Randy the fake idol. Here's where Bob should have said he didn't know the idol was fake and Sugar must have planted it on Exile "Island" when she found the real one, but no. Instead, he readily admits to giving Randy an idol he knew was fake, saying he "didn't mind" giving Randy a fake idol, but he was very pissed off at how Sugar rubbed Randy's ouster in his face with all of her laughing. "Don't ever do that again," Bob says. Have we ever seen him angry before? Also, he's saying that Sugar should have been happy enough that Randy was leaving the game without laughing at him like that, but if that was how Bob felt, then why did he give Randy the fake idol at all? How can Bob get on his high horse when he's the only reason why Sugar was able to have such a great time booting Randy in the first place? Sugar acts appropriately contrite. But while she might be sorry that she pissed Bob off, she's not at all sorry for laughing at Randy. As she tells us, Randy "dug his own grave" and it was hilarious.
And now it's Corinne's turn to be pissed. She (kind of rightly, I must admit) points out that Sugar was all about teaching her how to be nice to people, and asks if this was one of her lessons. Sugar doesn't seem to think she's a hypocrite, though. She says Corinne talks about everyone behind his back and then acts nice to his face. It's much more honorable to laugh in people's faces when you've fucked them over and they can't do anything about it. Corinne says she has to talk behind people's backs because if she said something to their faces, it would be bad game play. And just look where Corinne's "good" game play has gotten her! Watching members of her alliance get voted out one by one. Corinne says she didn't come here to make friends -- she came here to play the game. Sugar says that's exactly right. They all came here to play the game, and that's what Sugar's doing. Corinne has no response to this, so she runs over to the nearest cameraman and talks about the members of her tribe behind their backs: "I am now in a camp of mutants, none of whom I like. So it's very difficult for me to pretend to be nice to them. That's not something I'm used to. And that's done." No, it isn't. As usual, Corinne is all talk and no game.

About Susan Morris
Photography has been a passion of mine ever since I purchased my first Pentax K1000 many, many moons ago. Hard at work in a darkroom while watching those first images emerge, I thought to myself: what a wonderful way to preserve a moment in time, to stir an emotion, to challenge the way we all see our world. I was hooked. Ever since that first photograph was taken I've never attended an event, taken a walk in the woods or travelled any distance without a camera close at hand. I hope you enjoy the world as I see it through my lens. Best wishes,
Susan Morris

Dominique Peyroux returns to NRL football for just the third time this season for the Vodafone Warriors' 25th-round clash against his former club Gold Coast at Mount Smart Stadium on Sunday (4.00pm kick-off; match day sponsor: Vodafone).
In his first outing in more than four months, the 25-year-old Peyroux has been named to start in the centres, coming into the side following the shoulder injury which forced rookie winger David Fusitu'a off the field in the opening minutes of last Sunday's loss to the Sydney Roosters.
Ngani Laumape starts on the right wing, where he played most of the match against the Roosters after originally being selected in the centres.
In one other change to the starting line-up, Sione Lousi has been named at loose forward with Sebastine Ikahihifo included on the bench.
Returning on the interchange is veteran prop Sam Rapira, who turned out for the club's New South Wales Cup side in its dramatic 28-30 loss to Newtown last Sunday. He replaces Feleti Mateo who will play in the NSW Cup against North Sydney on Sunday.
After making 14 appearances last season, Peyroux's previous games this year were against Canterbury-Bankstown (bench) at Eden Park and the following week against St George Illawarra when he was in the second row.
Used 16 times for the NSW Cup side, the Cook Islands international has been with the NRL squad the last two weeks following injuries to Konrad Hurrell , Dane Nielsen and Tuimoala Lolohea; he was 18th man against the Roosters.
"Dom's been great working with the squad giving us cover in the outside backs for the last couple of weeks," he said.
"He has kept pushing for an opportunity through his efforts for our New South Wales Cup side and he'll do a good job for us.
"The decision to start Sione is the way we want to go with this game."
Peyroux played 16 times for the Titans in 2011-2012 before linking with the Vodafone Warriors last season.
He was in two losing Gold Coast sides in matches against the Vodafone Warriors but experienced victory for his new club against his old one in Robina last August.
He becomes the 11th different player the Vodafone Warriors have used as a starting centre or wing. The team's top try scorer Manu Vatuvei has been the most durable, missing just one of the side's 22 games this season while Hurrell, Nielsen, Fusitu'a, Lolohea, Glen Fisiiahi and the now-retired Jerome Ropati have all been hit by injuries.
The Vodafone Warriors go into the second to last round of the regular season out of the top eight, now 10thand needing to beat both Gold Coast and Penrith to have any chance of being in top eight contention.
"We simply have to win both games and then hope for a few things to go our way," said McFadden.
Five players will maintain a perfect record of playing all 23 matches so far this season this week – Sam Tomkins, Nathan Friend, Jacob Lillyman, Simon Mannering and Suaia Matagi.
McFadden said the team was buoyed by this Sunday also marking old boys' day with a strong crew of former players set to be on hand.

Vodafone Warriors head coach Andrew McFadden has made several line-up changes for Sunday's 23rd-round NRL encounter with the Knights at Hunter Stadium in Newcastle (2.00pm kick-off local time; 4.00pm NZT).
As foreshadowed experienced halfback Shaun Johnson returns for his 80th NRL appearance after missing the last three matches with a groin injury.
Two other backline changes were forced with Dane Nielsen (concussion) and Tuimoala Lolohea (hamstring) both ruled out this week. They left the field in last Sunday's 16-12 win over Cronulla, a result which has pushed the Vodafone Warriors up to sixth on the ladder with four rounds left in the regular season.
With first-choice centre Konrad Hurrell still unavailable with a hamstring strain, McFadden has brought valuable utility Ben Henry into the starting line-up while rookie David Fusitu'a returns on the right wing for his 12th appearance; he has been out with a groin injury since the 22-28 loss to Brisbane on July 19.
There are also four changes to the starting forward pack.
The most notable sees Thomas Leuluai named to start at hooker for the first time in what will be his ninth game this season and his fifth since returning from a three-month lay-off with his groin problem. Nathan Friend goes to the bench.
Returning in the second row is Jayson Bukuya, who was 18th man against the Sharks last week, with Ben Matulino his starting second row partner. Captain Simon Mannering switches to loose forward. Friend is joined on an extended interchange by Feleti Mateo, Sam Rapira, Sione Lousi, Sebastine Ikahihifo and Dominique Peyroux.
"Shaun was close to being right last week. We could have played him but didn't want to risk it," said McFadden.
"It's great to have him back. He's obviously important to our team.
"With Konrad and Dane both out, Ben (Henry) is a natural choice in the centres and David (Fusitu'a) has another chance after missing a few games.
"We've made some other changes as well in a bid to lift our performance. It wasn't at the level we expect of ourselves against Cronulla. That effort was really disappointing but at least we came away from it with the two points."
In Newcastle, the Vodafone Warriors face another side sitting well down the table in 14th place on 18 points after what has been a challenging season for the club.
Despite that the Knights have had two outstanding victories in their last two homes games beating the defending premiers the Sydney Roosters 16-12 and last week coming back from the clouds with two tries in the last two minutes to beat the formidable Melbourne Storm 32-30; that win came on the back of a 10-50 loss to South Sydney the previous week.
The Vodafone Warriors have an impressive record against the Knights having won seven of the last eight clashes between the two sides and 13 of 17 stretching back to 2005. They've also won five of the last seven encounters at Hunter Stadium but this is their first trip to Newcastle since 2011.
The teams met in the first match back at Mount Smart Stadium on June 1 when the Vodafone Warriors marked Mannering's 200th appearance and his 100th as captain with a 38-18 win.
Matulino plays his 149th NRL match on Sunday leaving him in line to play his 150th game when the Vodafone Warriors host the Sydney Roosters on August 24.

|سورة الحديد
Sūrat al-Ḥadīd
The Iron
Arabic text · English translation
|Juz' 27[1]
|4 rukus, 29 verses, 575 words, 2475[2] letters
Al-Qurʾān القرآن
Al-Hadid (Arabic: سورة الحديد ) is the 57th chapter of the Quran.[3] Hadid, meaning 'Iron', is the 57th chapter of the Qur'an with 29 verses. This chapter is named for the word Iron which appears in the 25th verse.[4]
بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِِ
Beginning is with Allah's personal name Ar-Rahman Who is The Fountain of Infinite Mercy. [Note]It should be remembered that it is not the written text/part/Ayah of سُورة and hence it is never numbered. For convenience of those readers who are already believers, this is traditionally printed since it is commanded in the Qur'an to read/recite with the Name of Sustainer Lord, The Creator with the exception of the ninth Sura.
English Translation by Muhammad Muhsin Khan: Whatsoever is in the heavens and the earth glorifies Allâh, and He is the All-Mighty, All-Wise. (1) His is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, It is He Who gives life and causes death; and He is Able to do all things. (2) He is the First (nothing is before Him) and the Last (nothing is after Him), the Most High (nothing is above Him) and the Most Near (nothing is nearer than Him). And He is the All-Knower of every thing. (3) He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days and then rose over (Istawâ) the Throne (in a manner that suits His Majesty). He knows what goes into the earth and what comes forth from it, and what descends from the heaven and what ascends thereto. And He is with you (by His Knowledge) wheresoever you may be. And Allâh is the All-Seer of what you do. (4) His is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth. And to Allâh return all the matters (for decision). (5) He merges night into day (i.e. the decrease in the hours of the night is added into the hours of the day), and merges day into night (i.e. the decrease in the hours of the day is added into the hours of the night), and He has full knowledge of whatsoever is in the breasts. (6) Believe in Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and spend of that whereof He has made you trustees. And such of you as believe and spend (in Allâh's Way), theirs will be a great reward. (7) And what is the matter with you that you believe not in Allâh! While the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) invites you to believe in your Lord (Allâh), and He (Allâh) has indeed taken your covenant, if you are real believers. (8) It is He Who sends down manifest Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) to His slave (Muhammad SAW) that He may bring you out from darkness into light. And verily, Allâh is to you full of kindness, Most Merciful. (9) And what is the matter with you that you spend not in the Cause of Allâh? And to Allâh belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth. Not equal among you are those who spent and fought before the conquering (of Makkah with those among you who did so later). Such are higher in degree than those who spent and fought afterwards. But to all, Allâh has promised the best (reward). And Allâh is All-Aware of what you do. (10) Who is he that will lend Allâh a goodly loan, then (Allâh) will increase it manifold to his credit (in repaying), and he will have (besides) a good reward (i.e. Paradise). (11) On the Day you shall see the believing men and the believing women their light running forward before them and by their right hands. Glad tidings for you this Day! Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise), to dwell therein forever! Truly, this is the great success! (12) On the Day when the hypocrites men and women will say to the believers: "Wait for us! Let us get something from your light!" It will be said: "Go back to your rear! Then seek a light!" So a wall will be put up between them, with a gate therein. Inside it will be mercy, and outside it will be torment." (13) (The hypocrites) will call the believers: "Were we not with you?" The believers will reply: "Yes! But you led yourselves into temptations, you looked forward for our destruction; you doubted (in Faith); and you were deceived by false desires, till the Command of Allâh came to pass. And the chief deceiver (Satan) deceived you in respect of Allâh." (14) So this Day no ransom shall be taken from you (hypocrites), nor of those who disbelieved, (in the Oneness of Allâh Islâmic Monotheism). Your abode is the Fire, That is your maula (friend — proper place), and worst indeed is that destination. (15) Has not the time come for the hearts of those who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism) to be affected by Allâh's Reminder (this Qur'ân), and that which has been revealed of the truth, lest they become as those who received the Scripture [the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] before (i.e. Jews and Christians), and the term was prolonged for them and so their hearts were hardened? And many of them were Fâsiqûn (the rebellious, the disobedient to Allâh). (16) Know that Allâh gives life to the earth after its death! Indeed We have made clear the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations) to you, if you but understand. (17) Verily, those who give Sadaqât (i.e. Zakât and alms, etc.), men and women, and lend Allâh a goodly loan, it shall be increased manifold (to their credit), and theirs shall be an honourable good reward (i.e. Paradise). (18) And those who believe in (the Oneness of) Allâh and His Messengers, they are the Siddiqûn (i.e. those followers of the Prophets who were first and foremost to believe in them), and the martyrs with their Lord, they shall have their reward and their light. But those who disbelieve (in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism) and deny Our Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.), they shall be the dwellers of the blazing Fire. (19) Know that the life of this world is only play and amusement, pomp and mutual boasting among you, and rivalry in respect of wealth and children, (it is) as the likeness of vegetation after rain, thereof the growth is pleasing to the tiller; afterwards it dries up and you see it turning yellow; then it becomes straw. But in the Hereafter (there is) a severe torment (for the disbelievers, evil-doers), and (there is) Forgiveness from Allâh and (His) Good Pleasure (for the believers — good-doers), And the life of this world is only a deceiving enjoyment. (20) Race with one another in hastening towards forgiveness from your Lord (Allâh), and Paradise the width whereof is as the width of the heaven and the earth, prepared for those who believe in Allâh and His Messengers. That is the Grace of Allâh which He bestows on whom He is pleased with. And Allâh is the Owner of Great Bounty. (21) No calamity befalls on the earth or in yourselves but is inscribed in the Book of Decrees (Al-Lauh Al-Mahfûz), before We bring it into existence. Verily, that is easy for Allâh. (22) In order that you may not grieve at the things that you fail to get, nor rejoice over that which has been given to you. And Allâh likes not prideful boasters. (23) Those who are misers and enjoin upon people miserliness (Allâh is not in need of their charity). And whosoever turns away (from Faith — Allâh's Monotheism), then Allâh is Rich (Free of all needs), Worthy of all praise. (24) Indeed We have sent Our Messengers with clear proofs, and revealed with them the Scripture and the Balance (justice) that mankind may keep up justice. And We brought forth iron wherein is mighty power (in matters of war), as well as many benefits for mankind, that Allâh may test who it is that will help Him (His religion), and His Messengers in the unseen. Verily, Allâh is All-Strong, All-Mighty. (25) And indeed, We sent Nûh (Noah) and Ibrahîm (Abraham), and placed in their offspring Prophethood and Scripture, And among them there are some who are guided, but many of them are Fâsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allâh). (26) Then, We sent after them, Our Messengers, and We sent 'Īsā (Jesus) son of Maryam (Mary), and gave him the Injeel(Gospel). And We ordained in the hearts of those who followed him, compassion and mercy. But the monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them, but (they sought it) only to please Allâh therewith, but they did not observe it with the right observance. So We gave those among them who believed, their (due) reward, but many of them are Fâsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allâh). (27) O you who believe [in Mûsa (Moses) (i.e. Jews) and 'Īsā (Jesus) (i.e. Christians)]! Fear Allâh, and believe in His Messenger (Muhammad SAW), He will give you a double portion of His Mercy, and He will give you a light by which you shall walk (straight), and He will forgive you. And Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (28) So that the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) may know that they have no power whatsoever over the Grace of Allâh, and that (His) Grace is (entirely) in His Hand to bestow it on whomsoever He wills. And Allâh is the Owner of Great Bounty. (29)
