I have written extensively regarding the benefits HPDI's PRO-C™ and Ultimate Protector™ antioxidant formulas. Based upon my experience with these formulas they are among the most effective antioxidant formulas available.
Both antioxidant formulas are included in HPDI's system of foundational supplements and work most effectively when used with multivitamins, essential fats, and superfoods.
Yet, both formulas also are excellent standalone products that can rapidly provide the body with extremely high protection against free radicals.
We are often asked "which of these two antioxidant formulas should I take?" My answer usually is to take both formulas. I personally take both of them on a daily basis.
Below I will briefly show the reason my answer is to take both formulas. I include information showing the relationship, in terms of ingredients of the two formulas (per serving of three (3) capsules daily of PRO-C and six (6) capsules daily of Ultimate Protector).
PRO-C™ (per serving of three "00" veggie caps)
• Buffered non-GMO Vitamin C (1,500 mg) buffered with Ca/Mg/Zn
• Grape Extract (seed, skin, and pulp) (90 mg)
• Green Tea Extract 95% polyphenols 40% min. EGCG (90 mg)
• Glutathione – reduced (60 mg)
• N-Acetyl-l-Cysteine (NAC) (45 mg)
• R-Lipoic Acid (15 mg)
• Coenzyme B2/R5P (3 mg)
• Coenzyme B6/P5P (3 mg)
• Selenium from l-selenomethionine (30 mcg)
• Calcium (70 mg)
• Magnesium (70 mg)
• Zinc (6 mg)
ULTIMATE PROTECTOR™ (per serving of six "0" veggie caps)
• Vitamin C as non-GMO Ascorbic acid (1500 mg)
• Anthocomplete™ (135 mg) Wild Blueberry, Wild Bilberry, Acai, Black Currant Extract, Sweet Cherry, Raspberry, Elderberry, Blackberry, Aronia, Black Soybean Hull Extract, and Blue Corn
• CoffeeBerry®Forte (135 mg)
• Vitaberry® Plus (90 mg) freeze-dried Grape Seed, Wild Blueberry, Wild Bilberry, Cranberry, Tart Cherry, Prune, Raspberry Seed, Strawberry, Trans-Resveratrol, and Quercetin
• VitaVeggie® (90 mg) Broccoli, Broccoli Sprouts, Tomato, Kale, Carrot, Brussels Sprouts, Onion, and Spinach
• Curcumin 95% (90 mg)
• Trans-Resveratrol 98% (90 mg)
• Malic Acid (500 mg)
• Calcium (60 mg)
• Magnesium (60 mg)
• BioPerine® (7.5 mg)
The products together contain nine (9) unique PRO-C™ ingredients, eight (8) unique Ultimate Protector™ ingredients, and three (3) overlapping ingredients.
When PRO-C™ was first released in 1997 there were few publications available regarding Nrf2 ingredients and their benefits. The product design was based on the work of Dr. Lester Packer and his work done on the "Antioxidant Network" showing how nutrients such as Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Glutathione, and Lipoic acid work in a redox network to regenerate key nutrients in the body (see Figure 1. below)
At that time the powerful antioxidant formulas of Grape Seed Extract and Green Tea Extract were well known, but their powerful Nrf2 effects were not discovered until later. These ingredients are able to trap free radicals and conserve the body's store of network antioxidants.
Also, the Nrf2 effects of NAC and Lipoic acid were not known at the time, but their powerful effects on the body were known to support the production of glutathione. Additionally, the super powerful glutathione (reduced) was included with supporting coenzymes B2 (from riboflavin 5′-phosphate) and B6 (from pyridoxal 5′-phosphate) that allow the enzymes glutathione reductase and transferase to function at a higher level.
From the beginning of the design process, Ultimate Protector™ (UP) was focused on creating a highly effective Nrf2 activator formula with outstanding antioxidant effects. Our understanding was that a very broad spectrum of plant polyphenols including flavonoids, anthocyandins, oligoproanthocyanidins (OPCs), etc. would deliver the best results.
We selected Futureceuticals Anthocomplete™, CoffeeBerry® Forte, Vitaberry® Plus, and VitaVeggie® in order to accomplish this and added Curcumin 95%, and Trans-Resveratrol 98% because of the powerful scientific findings regarding Nrf2 activation for these two ingredients. We found out later in testing that this combination of ingredients produces very high ORAC5.0 values (486,000 units/serving of six capsules) and works effectively against all of the primary types of free radicals in the body.
There are 29 unique Nrf2 activator ingredients in Ultimate Protector (UP) and four (4) non-overlapping Nrf2 activator ingredients in PRO-C. Thus by taking both formulas you are able to receive 33 identifiable Nrf2 activator ingredients (870 mg). The amount of unique Nrf2 ingredients is probably significantly more than this because most of the identifiable ingredients contain a range of plant polyphenols.
Other unique ingredients of each formula include glutathione – reduced (60 mg), malic acid (500 mcg), zinc (6 mg), selenium (30 mcg), B2 (3 mg) and B6 (3 mg) from coenzyme forms, and Bioperine (7.5 mg) (for enhanced absorption of nutrients). These are important ingredients to have the formulas work more effectively together.
The overlapping ingredients in the formula include Vitamin C (3 gm – 1.5 gm from each formula), calcium (130 mg – 70 mg from PRO-C & 60 mg from UP), magnesium (130 mg – 70 mg from PRO-C & 60 mg from UP), and a little grape seed extract (~10 mg). We view this to be very positive especially because we believe that most people should take in at least 3 grams daily of Vitamin C. Equal amounts of calcium and magnesium balance each other in the body and have many important functions such as being part of critical enzymes.

Currently in production: BOUND—the new annual compilations for the Bloof Books chapbook series.
Each chapbook is presented pretty much as it originally appeared, with color photos of the original covers. Some of the chapbooks also include other illustrations.
For reasons both practical and aesthetic, the chapbooks will not be arranged in chronological order, within the volumes. We've decided that's better, for this particular reading experience. The chronology will be included in the backmatter, which will also provide descriptions of the original handmade editions, and an index of titles.
BOUND seeks to make the chapbook series more accessible for teaching and distribution, and to provide an alternative format for readers who prefer collecting paperbacks.
Coming soon.

About the
Hridaya Silent Meditation Retreat
The Hridaya Silent Meditation Retreat is a unique immersion experience that focuses on accessing our real and essential nature, the supreme and divine Self, atman, through an artful integration of meditation and yoga techniques. During the retreat, we address broad aspects of the Spiritual Heart, from a variety of traditions including esoteric Christian, Sufi, and Kashmir Shaivism. The atmosphere will be one of agape and strong spiritual support.
The Hridaya Silent Meditation Retreat was created specifically to comprehensively and intimately understand what meditation is and to feel the amazing inner transformations that it brings.
The program aims to create an experience resembling a solitary retreat (such as in a cave) in order to provide an opportunity to reach deep states of consciousness, intense aspiration for the Divine, and highly focused interiorization for the awakening and blossoming of the soul, jivatman. This method is a unique integration of Advaita Vedanta, Sufism, Tantra, and Dzogchen.
In the advanced stages of practice, all paths of authentic spiritual traditions meet harmoniously and merge into the same ineffable Reality. During the Hridaya Silent Meditation Retreat, practitioners will be skillfully guided to this penetrating understanding where the search for meaning ends in surrender to the domain of revelation. No previous meditation or yoga experience is necessary as this retreat is designed for beginner and advanced meditators alike.
Cultivated Attitudes
This method is crafted to cultivate the following attitudes:
- An inner awareness of all sensory perceptions and emotions which will gradually become, through sublimation, an awareness of the Spiritual Heart;
- The calming down of the mind (a state of peace of mind);
- The polarization between the individual soul, jivatman, and the divine Self, atman, that is experienced as a state of very strong and profound aspiration and longing for God;
- The evocation of death of the physical body as a way of transcending desires and egotistical tendencies;
- The act of powerfully evoking and experiencing the mystery of God's presence inside our Spiritual Heart.
Methods, Techniques, and Teachings
This retreat includes advice for guided meditation, lectures, and practical methods such as:
- Ramana Maharshi's method of introspection (Self-Inquiry, atma vichara, using the question "Who Am I?")
- Techniques of stilling the mind using breath awareness
- Study of the symbolism of the Spiritual Heart
- Methods of Self-centering in everyday life
- Advice for maintaining awareness of the Spiritual Heart, in the tradition of the Fathers and Mothers of the Desert (from Christianity )
- The Christian method of the Prayer of the Heart
- A proper understanding of Advaita Vedanta's fundamental principles
- Methods of passing from individual consciousness to Cosmic Consciousness
- The four fundamental aspects of the ineffable process of Revealing the Spiritual Heart
- Daily special meditations on themes connected with Self-Revelation
- Yogic methods that approach the issue of the Spiritual Heart
- Poetry
- Hatha Yoga sessions
What Are the Purposes of this Retreat?
During the retreat, our aim is to inform you about methods for meditation encompassing, but not limited to, the unity of consciousness and Advaita Vedanta, thus leading to self-discovery of the Spiritual Heart. The system of meditation will focus on the methods developed by Ramana Maharshi, that of atma vichara, or more popularly known as the inquiry "Who Am I?," as well as other complementary meditations and prayers.
We aim to inform you about the practical and theoretical aspects of this methodology, allowing ample opportunities to directly put it into practice. In doing so, we hope that you will understand the underlying principles and value the purpose of meditation, thus reaping immediate benefits, and coming to love meditation as an essential part of your life.
- You will learn some direct methods to pacify your mind and even transcend it. When your mind is truly still and without any thoughts, and you transcend your ego, and you arrive at a place where you have no name, no social status, no relationships, no past, no future, no country, no spiritual attainment, and no lack of spiritual attainment. It is simply a presence of being. If a movement or a thought appears in this stillness, it is enveloped into the stillness, thus becoming stillness itself. It is as if your life becomes full and saturated with this peace and sacredness.
- You will also learn a way that comprises a vision, a spiritual understanding, and a method of transforming yourselves. We hope most of you will learn to love meditation as a means for discovering Divine Reality, otherwise referred to as God, although these methods are beyond any specific ideas of religion or any theoretical concepts about God.
- We hope most of you will have some peak experiences about Supreme Reality, some special states of consciousness about cosmic love, eternity, or the unity of everything, which can be evoked afterward in daily life. This will help you in your quest to understand the reason for your existence.
- Our aim is for you to realize the importance of fully incorporating the Spiritual Heart in your life, beyond concepts, theory, and philosophy. The path to the Spiritual Heart journeys through your soul, and therefore, an opening and intimacy of the soul will naturally occur from this. During this retreat, we will have the chance to venture deeper than the emotional psychic level of the Heart, into the Divine Reality which represents the most profound aspect of the Spiritual Heart. Ultimately, you will be compelled to love at a level which your ego usually prevents you from accessing through blockages such as attachments, ignorance, and other negative emotions, thoughts, and beliefs. To access this level of universal love, the obstacles challenging your personality and your ego must be transcended through accessing the Spiritual Heart.
- Our ultimate goal is for you to gain a profound understanding of the real nature of your existence and the nature of manifestation of Life and the Universe. More specifically, you will eventually achieve a coherent vision of Divine Unity, Advaita, and nonduality, which is the main revolutionary power, the main transforming idea of Jnana Yoga, and Advaita Vedanta, Taoism, Dzogchen, and Zen.
Purification Effects of the Retreat
When we venture deeper than the surface of our egos into the realm of the Spiritual Heart, it is common that some purification on the physical, mental, or emotional level can occur. This is merely the body's way of releasing old blockages, traumas, and negative emotions in order to access the deeper levels of the soul. Do not be afraid. Do not avoid purification. However, don't dramatize; don't accord them too much importance. When those transformations eventually synthesize, meditation ceases to be boring, painful, or just a passing experience, and truly becomes a deep, joyful, and blissful experience. Depending on the individual's level of practice and awareness, these transformations can be immediate or can take a longer time to process. However, change is inevitable and this transformation can be very stable and profound and can transform your life dramatically.
So, what expectations do we need to have from the Retreat? None! Because of the ineffability of what we really are, of what Divine Reality is, this change is a natural progression that comes from stillness, surrender, and, ultimately, from within our true selves.
The aim is to create the best conditions in which the Divine Reality will be revealed in our Heart. From doing this, we will experience some profound effects from these meditations. Many make the mistake of becoming attached to these effects and realizations.
However, do not cling to them. In the openness of our being, much more than this is happening, and we will learn to accept, surrender and be open to the ebb and flow of these realizations.
The Spiritual Heart, Our Real Home
Ultimately, the most important outcome of this retreat is for us to start becoming accustomed to centering in the Spiritual Heart. This means to get used and be aware of that quiet, peaceful, infinite, and eternal foundation of our being which cannot be perceived by the rational mind, but is the source of all inspiration, love, beauty, and spiritual life. Many sages have said that the Spiritual Heart is our real home. So abandon yourselves, trust and enjoy this centering. The Spiritual Heart is your axis, your hub.
During this retreat, be at home, be present and integrate this practice fully for an intimate, meaningful experience.
The Spiritual Heart is the "meeting place" for those who wish to relate to life in a sacred manner.

NEW YORK, March 3, 2010 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Amgen and Pfizer have once again partnered with Tim Gunn, television host, fashion consultant and chief creative officer of Liz Claiborne, Inc., to launch the second year of Addressing Psoriasis(TM), the disease awareness program designed to help people with psoriasis get more information about their condition and feel more confident in their everyday style. Dermatologist Susan C. Taylor, M.D., and Gunn are working together, again in 2010, to encourage people with psoriasis to visit a dermatologist and take the first step in managing their condition.
This year, Addressing Psoriasis(TM) kicks off with an exciting new contest inviting people with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis to share their personal stories about the challenges of living with the condition, including the impact on their personal style, and how they think Gunn may help them present their best selves to the world. Individuals 18 or older with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis are eligible to enter for a chance to win a personal style consultation with Gunn and the opportunity to help raise public awareness of the condition. Five winners will be chosen, each of whom will receive a trip to New York City to receive a one-on-one consultation from Gunn. To learn how to enter the contest, view complete official rules and find useful resources about psoriasis, visit www.addresspsoriasis.com. You can also find Addressing Psoriasis(TM) on Facebook.
"Through my involvement in the first year of Addressing Psoriasis(TM) I learned how much of an impact psoriasis can have on a person's physical and emotional well-being," said Gunn. "As someone who has always been an advocate of confidence as the ultimate fashion staple, I'm thrilled to continue to help encourage people with psoriasis to address their condition, which includes visiting a dermatologist and embracing their personal style."
From now until April 30, 2010 people are encouraged to visit www.addresspsoriasis.com and offer their tips for living fashionably with psoriasis. Questions about style challenges can also be submitted to Gunn via the Web site. Select questions will be answered by Gunn later this year in a style resource guide designed especially for people with psoriasis.
"One of the best parts about being an Addressing Psoriasis(TM) winner was having the opportunity to share my story with other people in the psoriasis community," says Cynthia McGowen, a 2009 Addressing Psoriasis(TM) winner. "I know from personal experience just how isolating this disease can be, so I encourage people to enter the contest and connect with others who have faced similar challenges because of their psoriasis."
Psoriasis, which affects approximately 7.5 million Americans, is a chronic disease of the immune system that causes the skin cells to grow at an accelerated rate. Although there are several types of psoriasis, approximately 80 percent of patients suffer from plaque psoriasis, which can cause painful and itchy red, scaly patches.
According to data collected from psoriasis patients by the National Psoriasis Foundation over a six-year period (2004 - 2009), 41 percent of patients choose their clothing to conceal their psoriasis. The Foundation's results also showed:
-- 73 percent of respondents said they feel self-conscious about their
-- 63 percent said it impacts their overall emotional well-being
-- 72 percent of respondents suffer from itching, 70 percent from
physical irritation and 59 percent from physical pain
-- 54 percent reported that their psoriasis is disfiguring
-- 43 percent of respondents aged 20-39 described their psoriasis as a
"social embarrassment," compared with 17 percent of respondents over
the age of 40
The surveys had approximately 4,725 respondents, 75 percent of whom reported being diagnosed with moderate to severe psoriasis.
Dr. Susan C. Taylor, assistant clinical professor of dermatology, Columbia University's College of Physicians and Surgeons and founding director of the Skin of Color Center at St. Luke's and Roosevelt Hospitals in New York City, says, "I regularly see patients who talk to me about how psoriasis negatively impacts their daily lives, including pain and itching, as well as challenges with clothing and fabric choices. I strongly urge people with psoriasis to visit a dermatologist and begin the dialogue about managing their condition - this simple conversation may be the first step in helping alleviate some of the physical and emotional burdens of this disease."
About Addressing Psoriasis(TM)
Addressing Psoriasis(TM) was developed to inspire people with plaque psoriasis to actively manage their condition, be more confident and not allow the condition to inhibit their everyday style. Now in its second year, Addressing Psoriasis(TM) continues to raise public awareness and encourages patients to visit a dermatologist as the first step in managing the condition. Addressing Psoriasis(TM) is sponsored by Amgen and Pfizer with participation from the American Academy of Dermatology, the National Psoriasis Foundation, Psoriasis Cure Now, the Dermatology Nurses' Association and the Society of Dermatology Physician Assistants. To learn more about Addressing Psoriasis(TM) or to enter the contest, visit www.addresspsoriasis.com.
Entrants are asked to submit a photo and personal essay explaining how they have overcome or tried to overcome the challenges of living with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis and how the condition has impacted their personal style and the clothing they wear. Additionally, entrants are asked to explain how Tim Gunn may help them overcome style challenges associated with psoriasis and present their best selves to the world. Entries will be judged based solely on the inspirational nature of their story, and not on the entrants' use of specific treatment options.
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. A PURCHASE DOES NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCE OF WINNING. See complete Official Rules for how to enter and restrictions. The Addressing Psoriasis(TM) Contest is open to legal residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia who are at least 18 years of age or have reached the age of capacity to enter into contracts under the laws of their state and who have a confirmed medical diagnosis of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Contest begins at 12:00:00 (Midnight) AM Eastern Time ("ET") on Wednesday, March 3, 2010 and ends at 11:59:59 PM ET on Friday, April 30, 2010.

Wisconsin LawyerVol. 83, No. 9, September 2010
by George C. Brown,State Bar executive director
About 15 years ago, the president of the State Bar of Wisconsin and I were talking with a reporter for the newspaper in one of Wisconsin's cities. The president was discussing recent developments in the state legislature and how they were in response to some issues occurring on the national scene. Suddenly, the reporter held up his hand and asked the president, "So, now tell me, what's the difference between the state legislature and the United States Supreme Court?"
Flash forward to today. Sadly, not much has changed and maybe become worse. Today, more Americans can name the judges of "American Idol" than can name the members of the U.S. Supreme Court. This indictment of the American people was put forth by none other than retired Supreme Court Associate Justice Sandra Day O'Connor in her keynote address at the State Bar's annual convention last May. In that address, she expressed her deep misgivings about both the trajectory of our educational system's capacity to teach the social sciences and "increasingly volatile judicial campaigns" across the country.
Justice O'Connor has responded by creating an innovative online iCivics program to reinvigorate civics education in America. She highlighted the project, which features interactive electronic games, at a May 6 event in the Wisconsin Supreme Court Chambers and at the State Bar's Annual Convention. The State Bar is partnering with Justice O'Connor and the Wisconsin Supreme Court to promote iCivics in Wisconsin because it complements other law-related education initiatives we have sponsored for decades to promote public awareness of the law and citizenship through interactive educational experiences.
Each year, hundreds of attorneys across the state volunteer their time in support of a variety of law-related education programs. Court with Class brings students into the Wisconsin Supreme Court Chambers to hear oral arguments and meet one of the justices. Project Citizen offers students insights into the policy development process through portfolios and a State Capitol showcase. We the People: The Citizen and the Constitution focuses on the U.S. Constitution and features competitive statewide and national mock congressional hearings. And the Wisconsin High School Mock Trial Tournament brings the legal system to life each year for hundreds of high school students, who work with attorney coaches to research, prepare, and argue a challenging case in front of a panel of judges.
If we are to ensure that this experiment in democracy that we call the United States endures, we all must work toward every citizen having a thorough knowledge of how our system of government, in all its aspects, works. Visit our Law-related Education page on WisBar (www.wisbar.org/lre), and volunteer your time to help educate future generations so that we can protect our constitutional heritage.

The term whale is sometimes used to refer to all cetaceans, but more often it excludes dolphins and porpoises, which are also cetaceans but belong to the suborder Odontoceti. This suborder also includes the sperm whale, killer whale, pilot whale, and beluga whale. The suborder Mysticeti (baleen whales), are filter feeders that feed on small organisms caught by straining seawater through a comblike structure found in the mouth called baleen. This suborder includes the blue whale, the humpback whale the bowhead whale and the minke whales. All Cetacea have forelimbs modified as fins, a tail with horizontal flukes, and nasal openings on top of the head.

More Information
Port also known as Port wine, Vinho do Porto, Porto, or Porto wine is a sweet, fortified wine from the Douro Valley in the northern part of Portugal; it takes its name from the city of Oporto, the centre of port export and trading. Port has been produced in Portugal since the mid 15th Century. Port became very popular in England after the Methuen Treaty of 1703, when merchants were permitted to import it at a low duty, while war with France deprived English wine drinkers of French wine.
The continued English involvement in the port trade can be seen in the names of many port shippers: Croft, Taylor, Dow, Graham, Symington. Similar wines, often also called ""Port"", are produced in several other countries, notably Australia, South Africa, India and the United States. It has been produced in and around St. Augustine, Florida since the mid 16th Century. In some nations, including Canada, after a phase-in period, and the countries of the European Union, only the product from Portugal may be labelled as ""port."" In the United States, the Portuguese product, by Federal law pursuant to a treaty with Portugal, must be labelled ""Porto"" or ""Vinho do Porto"" for differentiation. The Instituto dos Vinhos do Douro e Porto (IVDP or Port and Douro Wine Institute) regulates the Port industry in Portugal.
Port wine is typically richer, sweeter, heavier, and possesses a higher alcohol content than most other wines. This is caused by the addition of distilled grape spirits (such as brandy) to fortify the wine and halt fermentation before all the sugar is converted to alcohol. It is commonly served after meals as a dessert wine, or with cheese. In France, white port is served as an apéritif. It has an alcohol by volume content of roughly 18% to 20%.Wine with less than 16% ethanol cannot protect itself against spoilage if exposed to air; with an alcohol content of 18% or higher, port wine can safely be stored in wooden casks that 'breathe', thereby permitting the fine aging of port wine.
Port from Portugal comes in several varieties.
Though it accounts for around one percent of production, vintage port is the flagship wine of all Portugal. It is made entirely from grapes of a declared vintage year. Not every year is declared a vintage in the Douro, only those when conditions are favourable to particularly flavourful crops of grapes. The decision to declare a vintage is made by each individual port house, and is based on several factors, most notably the weather and the ability of the marketplace to absorb a new vintage. While it is by far the most renowned type of port, from a volume and revenue standpoint vintage port actually makes up a small percentage of the production of a typical port house. Vintage ports are aged in barrels for a maximum of 2 years before bottling, and often require another 5 to 15 years of aging in the bottle before reaching what is considered proper drinking age. Since they are aged in barrels for only a short time, they retain their dark ruby colour and fresh fruit flavours. Particularly fine vintage ports can continue to gain complexity and drink wonderfully for decades after they were bottled, and therefore can be particularly sought after and expensive wines.
Although it bears the word ""vintage"" in its name, single-Quinta Vintage Port is produced from a particular vineyard and usually from a lesser ""undeclared"" year. Neither it nor the so-called ""late bottled vintage"" wines are true vintage port.
""Port"" wines produced outside of Portugal may be labelled with a vintage date, but rarely possess the quality and proven age-ability of true vintage port. They are vintage in the sense that they come from the produce of a specific year, but in most other respects are the opposite. They typically are meant for immediate consumption, produced nearly every year regardless of vintage conditions and are made from grapes of no particular distinction. Prices for ""port"" are similarly lower compared with genuine port. Nonetheless, some such ""ports"" or port-style wines improve with age. There is rarely universal agreement on the quality of the wine produced from a given year, and in some years a single producer may be alone in declaring a vintage. However, occasionally the harvest of a year is so good that all the major producers declare a vintage, and it is in these years that the port that is produced can last for over forty years, commanding high prices at auction.
Tawny port is aged in wooden barrels, exposing it to gradual oxidation and evaporation, causing its colour to mellow to a golden-brown after roughly ten years ""in wood."" Often they have pronounced ""nutty"" flavours. Tawny port without an indication of age is a basic blend of wood aged port. Aged tawny port is a blend of several vintages, with the average years ""in wood"" stated on the label: 10, 15, 20, and 30 years are common. Tawny ports from a single vintage are called Colheitas (pronounced col-YATE-ah, meaning harvest or vintage). Tawny and Colheita ports are always ready to drink when released and do not typically benefit from aging in bottle, although they will not degrade either. Because it has already been exposed to oxygen, an open bottle of tawny resists oxidation the longest of all ports. ""Tawny"" port produced outside Portugal is rarely aged long enough to develop a natural tawny colour. Instead, it is the result of blending ""ruby"" and ""white"" ports, or possibly the addition of caramel colouring. This is increasingly no longer true as Australia produces some excellent aged Tawnies. Yalumba has released a 50 year old tawny and Hardy's Whiskers Blake, Rosemount's Old Benson and Galway Pipe are also made in the traditional manner. South Africa's largest wine producer KWV also makes tawny port in the traditional manner.
Garrafeira port is similar to Colheita. It is made from grapes of a single vintage, aged in wood between three and six years and then aged in large approximately 10L glass demijohns for an extended time.
Late-Bottled Vintage (LBV)
LBV (Late-Bottled Vintage) port is intended to provide some of the experience of drinking a vintage port but without the decade-long wait of bottle aging. In contrast to vintage port's short time in barrel, LBV port is aged between four to six years in barrel, to mature it more quickly. Typically ready to drink when released, LBV ports are the product of a single year's harvest and tend to be smoother and lighter-bodied than a vintage port. LBV ports that are filtered do not require decanting and are ready to drink at bottling. Unfiltered or ""Traditional"" LBV ports require decanting like vintage ports do, and may improve in the bottle.
Reserve or Vintage Character
The confusingly named Vintage Character or Reserve port is essentially a premium Ruby port. In 2005, the IVDP prohibited the use of the term ""Vintage Character"" replacing it with the term ""Reserve.""
Crusted port is a blend of port wine from several years, but retains the crust otherwise restricted to vintage ports.
Ruby port may contain wine from several vintages. Ruby ports are fermented in wood and aged in glass, which preserves the wine's red colour. It is considerably cheaper than vintage port, and can be used in cooking or to make cocktails.
White port is made from white grapes, and generally served as a chilled apéritif. It is the only one which is optionally available dry as well.
Grapes and the ""Port"" Appellation
Red port can be made from many types of grapes (castas), but the main ones are Tinta Barroca, Tinta Cão, Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo), Touriga Francesa, and Touriga Nacional. White ports are produced the same way as red ports, except that they use white grapes-Esgana-Cão, Folgasão, Malvasia, Rabigato, Verdelho, and Viosinho. While Porto produced in Portugal is strictly regulated by the Instituto do Vinho do Porto, many wines in the U.S. use the above names but do not conform to the same standards. Thus each genuine port style has a corresponding, often very different, style that can be found in wines made outside Portugal.
There is a unique body of English ritual and etiquette surrounding the consumption of port, stemming from British naval custom.Traditionally, the wine is passed ""port to port"" — the host will pour a glass for the person seated at their right, and then pass the bottle or decanter to the left (to port); this practice is repeated around the circle. If the port becomes forestalled at some point, it is considered poor form to ask for the decanter directly. Instead, the person seeking a refill would ask of the person who has the bottle: ""do you know the bishop of Gloucester?"" (or some other English town). If the person being thus queried does not know the ritual (and so replies in the negative), the querent will remark ""He's an awfully nice fellow, but he never remembers to pass the port"".In other old English traditions when port is decantered, commonly at the dining table, the whole bottle should be finished in one sitting by the diners, and the table should not be vacated until this is done."

Alex Constantine - August 6, 2009
The Holder-Chiquita Connection
... Given Chiquita's underhanded record in Central America and Colombia it's not a surprise that the company later sought to ally itself with COHEP in Honduras. In addition to lobbying business associations in Honduras however Chiquita also cultivated relationships with high powered law firms in Washington. According to the Center for Responsive Politics, Chiquita has paid out $70,000 in lobbying fees to Covington and Burling over the past three years.
Covington is a powerful law firm which advises multinational corporations. Eric Holder, the current Attorney General, a co-chair of the Obama campaign and former Deputy Attorney General under Bill Clinton, was up until recently a partner at the firm. At Covington, Holder defended Chiquita as lead counsel in its case with the Justice Department. From his perch at the elegant new Covington headquarters located near the New York Times building in Manhattan, Holder prepped Fernando Aguirre, Chiquita's CEO, for an interview with 60 Minutes dealing with Colombian death squads.
Holder had the fruit company plead guilty to one count of "engaging in transactions with a specially designated global terrorist organization." But the lawyer, who was taking in a hefty salary at Covington to the tune of more than $2 million, brokered a sweetheart deal in which Chiquita only paid a $25 million fine over five years. Outrageously however, not one of the six company officials who approved the payments received any jail time.
The Curious Case of Covington
Look a little deeper and you'll find that not only does Covington represent Chiquita but also serves as a kind of nexus for the political right intent on pushing a hawkish foreign policy in Latin America. Covington has pursued an important strategic alliance with Kissinger (of Chile, 1973 fame) and McLarty Associates (yes, the same Mack McLarty from Clinton-time), a well known international consulting and strategic advisory firm.
From 1974 to 1981 John Bolton served as an associate at Covington. As U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations under George Bush, Bolton was a fierce critic of leftists in Latin America such as Venezuela's Hugo Chávez. Furthermore, just recently John Negroponte became Covington's Vice Chairman. Negroponte is a former Deputy Secretary of State, Director of National Intelligence and U.S. Representative to the United Nations.
As U.S. Ambassador to Honduras from 1981-1985, Negroponte played a significant role in assisting the U.S.-backed Contra rebels intent on overthrowing the Sandinista regime in Nicaragua. Human rights groups have criticized Negroponte for ignoring human rights abuses committed by Honduran death squads which were funded and partially trained by the Central Intelligence Agency. Indeed, when Negroponte served as ambassador his building in Tegucigalpa became one of the largest nerve centers of the CIA in Latin America with a tenfold increase in personnel.
While there's no evidence linking Chiquita to the recent coup in Honduras, there's enough of a confluence of suspicious characters and political heavyweights here to warrant further investigation. From COHEP to Covington to Holder to Negroponte to McLarty, Chiquita has sought out friends in high places, friends who had no love for the progressive labor policies of the Zelaya regime in Tegucigalpa. ...
"Eventually, though, with Holder's assistance Chiquita and the Justice Department came to an agreement in which the fruit company would pay a $25 million fine - the price of the company's sale of Banadex, its Colombian subsidiary - for having made payments to a foreign terrorist organization. The fine's proceeds went to the U.S. Treasury. ... "

Eric Holder and Chiquita
After President-Elect Obama revealed that Eric Holder would be his choice for attorney-general, several observers raised questions about the nominee's role as a private lawyer defending Chiquita Brands, the U.S. fruit company. Holder helped Chiquita negotiate a plea agreement with the Justice Department for the years of payoffs that the company made to paramilitary groups in a part of Colombia where the right-wing militias massacred hundreds, perhaps thousands, of civilians.
Hofstra University's Mario Murillo, writing for CounterPunch: "not one Chiquita official involved in the illegal transactions was forced to serve time for a crime that others have paid dearly for, mainly because they did not have the kind of legal backing that Holder's team provided. … If the Obama Administration is seriously concerned about impunity and human rights in Colombia, Holder should probably step out of the way immediately."
Dan Kovalik of the U.S. Steelworkers' Union, writing in the Huffington Post: "Eric Holder would have a troubling conflict of interest in carrying out this work in light of his current work as defense lawyer for Chiquita Brands international. … Holder himself, using his influence as former deputy attorney general under the Clinton Administration, helped to negotiate Chiquita's sweeheart deal with the Justice Department in the criminal case against Chiquita."
Jason Glaser, writing in the Guardian: "Does Holder represent the change we need and the change we were promised? It is time that someone who chooses to represent and serve human beings over corporations holds the position of attorney general."
The story here is that after the Clinton administration drew to a close Holder, a former Clinton assistant attorney-general, went into private practice at the Covington and Burling law firm, where his clients included Chiquita. In 2003, Holder led the legal team that advised the fruit company to admit to the U.S. Justice Department that it had been making payments to the murderous United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia (AUC) since 1997 - a relationship that started out as "protection" money but went on way too long. The payments, which finally stopped in 2004, totaled about US$1.7 million to a group that, as of September 10, 2001, was on the State Department's list of foreign terrorist organizations.
Oddly, as the Washington Post has reported, despite the terrorism link Holder and Chiquita at first had difficulty even getting a response out of Assistant Attorney-General Michael Chertoff, who would later go on to be the Bush administration's Homeland Security secretary.
Eventually, though, with Holder's assistance Chiquita and the Justice Department came to an agreement in which the fruit company would pay a $25 million fine - the price of the company's sale of Banadex, its Colombian subsidiary - for having made payments to a foreign terrorist organization. The fine's proceeds went to the U.S. Treasury.
There is a widespread perception that Chiquita's punishment was quite lenient given the link with a terrorist group responsible for mass murder. Notably, the Justice Department indictment makes no mention of a potentially more serious charge, documented in a 2003 OAS investigation: that Chiquita's Colombian subsidiary helped run weapons and ammunition from Nicaragua to the AUC.
How can we characterize the attorney-general-designate's role? On one hand, Holder's actions were commendable. Upon discovering that his client had broken the law, he advised it to go to the U.S. authorities. Notably, no other fruit company operating in northwestern Colombia's conflictive Urabá region - and there are several - has come forward to admit to paying off armed groups. (It seems absurd that Chiquita would be the only one, and indeed demobilizing paramilitary leaders - including Salvatore Mancuso in a May 2008 60 Minutes interview - have alleged that they took payments from other companies in Urabá.)
Writing for Salon, Glenn Greenwald meanwhile makes the point that Holder should not be criticized for defending for a client, since all accused people have the right to defense counsel.
Attempts to criticize a lawyer for representing unsavory or even evil clients are inherently illegitimate and wrong — period. Anybody who believes in core liberties should want even the most culpable parties to have zealous representation before the Government can impose punishments or other sanctions. Lawyers who defend even the worst parties are performing a vital service for our justice system. Holder is no more tainted by his defense of Chiquita than lawyers who defend accused terrorists at Guantanamo are tainted by that.
This is true, and Holder's defense of Chiquita should not disqualify him from serving as the Obama administration's attorney-general.
Nonetheless, there are questions about Holder's role that the Senate Judiciary Committee should explore before deciding on his nomination.
•Did Holder benefit from his contacts with former colleagues at the Justice Department in a way that allowed him to achieve a more lenient plea agreement than would have been possible for a less well-connected attorney?
•What role has Holder played in defending Chiquita from a class-action lawsuit filed in 2007 by 173 victims of paramilitary violence in the Urabá region? Has he advised his client to refuse any and all demands for restitution or reparations to victims? If so, how did he justify this position?
•In general, does Holder personally believe that U.S. corporations that do direct or indirect harm to citizens of a foreign country need not be held accountable to those citizens?
It will be difficult to get a definitive answer to any of these questions, and in fact the answer to all of them may be "no."
Still, the U.S. Justice Department is likely to be dealing with Colombian paramilitary groups in several contexts, including possible future actions against U.S. corporations that may have aided them, and of course the criminal cases against fifteen extradited paramilitary leaders in U.S. custody since May of this year.
In private practice, Holder sought to downplay the severity of his client's funding of Colombia's paramilitaries and perhaps sought to prevent or minimize reparations to victims. As attorney-general, however, Holder can do great harm to U.S. credibility in Colombia and Latin America if he is perceived to be throwing obstacles in the way of the paramilitaries' victims' rights to truth and reparations. Because of his past work with Chiquita, his Justice Department's actions with regard to future paramilitary cases will deserve extremely close scrutiny.
