Youth Without Youth

Youth Without Youth is a 2007 fantasy drama film written and directed by Francis Ford Coppola, based on the novella of the same name by Romanian author Mircea Eliade. It was the first film that Coppola had directed in ten years since 1997's The Rainmaker. It was distributed through Sony Pictures Classics in the United States on December 14, 2007 and Pathé in the UK and France. The music was composed by Grammy Award-winning Argentinan classical composer Osvaldo Golijov. In an interview, Coppola said that he made the film as a meditation on time and on consciousness, which he considers a "changing tapestry of illusion," but he admitted that the film may also be appreciated as a beautiful love story, or as a mystery. The film is a co-production between the United States, Romania, France, Italy and Germany.

Making cheese: step by step

To curdle the milk, rennet and a coagulant are added. The lactic bacteria converts lactose (milk sugar) into lactic acid and this lowers the degree of acidity (pH) of the milk. Harmful bacteria are thus destroyed. To make the milk curdle, use is made of an extract from the stomachs of calves. This extract contains the enzyme `chymosin'. This enzyme ensures that the proteins in milk (casein-proteins), which normally float in lumps (micelles) coagulate. Usually they reject each other, because they are charged and the lumps coagulate or adhere together. As well as rennet and the coagulant, other substances are also added to the milk. For instance calcium salts, which speed up the curdling process and a small, carefully controlled quantity of saltpetre (nitrate) to restrain the growth of harmful butyric acid bacteria. A partial alternative is bactofuging the milk which is the seperating of the bacteria and their spores from the milk by means of the bactofuge. When curdling has been completed, the milk-mass is cut which enables the whey to discharge more easily. After cutting, part of the whey is drained and warm water added. Because of the increased temperature, more liquid discharges.During and after moulding, the process of `souring' within the cheese continues. In the creamery the cheese remains in the mould for an additional hour or so.
Then the cheese is submerged in a brine bath. The salt gives the cheese its savoury taste and inhibits the growth of undesirable bacteria which can also affect the flavour. Whilst the cheese is maturing the long molecules break down, especially those of the lactoprotein. In addition carbon dioxide is formed, which causes the `holes' in the cheeses which professionals call `eyes'. Some cheeses have extra large holes due to the addition of propionic acid which also gives the sweet, nutty flavour

.During the maturing, the cheeses are provided at regular intervals with a thin coat of plastic which protects the rind against the formation of mould. The rind of some types, such as Dutch Fougerond and Kernhem, are rubbed with a bacteria during maturing.The cheeses are turned regularly.  Most Dutch cheese must, by law, be matured for at least four weeks.

 

World issues

Avalange in France and Austria.

The lives of four climbers killed by an avalanche in the French Alps. Climbers together with mountain guide were in a trough in the hellish mountain massif Parpaillon when they buried masses of snow. German holidaymaker died in the fall of avalanches in the Ziller Valley in the Austrian province of Tyrol. The authorities have pointed out that in the Tyrol, at an altitude of 2400 meters above the moment applies third degree avalanche danger on the five-part scale.
