Contacts 46 On the Line Notes from a Factory Joseph Ponthus Translated by Stephanie Smee On the Line (À la ligne) is Joseph Ponthus’ first novel, the story of a casual worker labouring in the fish-processing plants and abattoirs of Brittany. Day after day he records with infinite precision the nature of work on the production line, the noise, the weariness, the dreams stolen by the repetitive nature of exhausting rituals and physical suffering. But he finds solace in a life previously lived. He has read the classics, been swept away by Alexander Dumas, the poetry of JULY 2020 Apollinaire, the songs of Trenet. -

A dangerous story of life, death, and (very expensive) broken bottles. Two Aussies go chasing a wine treasure that sounds too good to be true and discover thousands of bottles of rare and extremely valuable century-old wine owned by the last Czar of Russia and Josef Stalin. In the late 1990s, John Baker was known as a purveyor of quality rare and old wines. Always entrepreneurial and up for adventure, he was the perfect person for an occasional business partner, Andrew Simon, to approach with a mysterious wine list that was foreign to anything John, or his second-in-command, Kevin Hopko, had ever seen. The list was discovered to be a catalogue of the wine collection of Nicholas II, last Czar of Russia. The wine had become property of the state after the Russian Revolution, during which Nicholas and his entire family were executed. Now owned by Stalin, the wine was discretely removed to a remote Georgian winery amid concerns about the advancing Nazi army. -
A Word to Our Readers to Begin With, Many Thanks to You All for Making 2012 an Outstanding Year for Us
A Word To Our Readers To begin with, many thanks to you all for making 2012 an outstanding year for us. It seems that the world has finally discovered the source of true knowledge, of peace of mind, and a more abundant and eternal way of life. Every month, our site was visited by people from about 80 countries, but when we looked at the year as a whole we discovered that we had unique visitors from 130 countries. And they did not just come and go, but downloaded our materials by the gigabyte. Nothing could make us happier, for it shows that our efforts have not been in vain. We could not help but think of the Scripture which says: “Cast your bread upon the waters, for you will find it after many days” (Ecc 11:1). We just hope that “many days” will not be too many, for we are getting a bit tired and old to keep carrying on this burden alone. Now while an impressive number of people make good use of our website, the fact remains that many come to us not to seek further enlightenment on spiritual matters but to contend and argue with us. That makes us happy too, for our witness must go out to sinners and righteous alike. We just wonder why people are so defensive about their religion when it has become obvious that it is false and they worship the wrong gods. Do they really know what they worship? Have they ever considered or heard of these statements from Jesus Christ and His Apostles? Joh 4:21 Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. -
