Defying gov't, Turkish protesters to stay in park
Protesters have agreed to press on with their 2-week-long sit-in at an Istanbul park, despite government appeals and warnings for the standoff with authorities to end, an activist said Saturday.
Associated Press
Protesters have agreed to press on with their 2-week-long sit-in at an Istanbul park, despite government appeals and warnings for the standoff with authorities to end, an activist said Saturday.
Tayfun Kahraman made the comment to The Associated Press after a series of discussions among the protesters in Gezi Park to decide on their next move.
He was one of two activists in Taksim Solidarity, an umbrella group of protest movements, who had met with Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Friday.
The protesters are angry about government plans to pull down trees and redevelop the park area. An initial sit-in drew a forceful police response on May 31, setting off a wave of protests - Turkey's biggest in decades.
Saturday's announcement is likely to return the spotlight on Erdogan's government, which in recent days offered to defer to a court ruling on the legality of the redevelopment plan and possibly hold a referendum on it. But on Thursday, he issued a "final" warning that the protesters must leave the park.
Jamey Keaten and Suzan Fraser contributed from Ankara, Turkey.

In a seventh straight day of protests inspired by revolts in Tunisia and Egypt, 3,000 marched in the southern port of Aden and police shot in the air to disperse the crowd.
Officials at two Aden hospitals told Reuters three men died of gunshot wounds after clashes with police.
A local official had another death in "random gunfire," and he said later that gunfire had wounded 17 others in Aden.
"No to oppression, no to corruption, the people demand the fall of the regime," chanted the Aden demonstrators, gathered to protest against the killing of two men on the previous day by stray bullets as police fired in the air.
In Sanaa, at least 40 were wounded as hundreds of Saleh loyalists, some armed with guns, charged around 1,500 protesters, who hurled rocks at them. Several journalists told Reuters that loyalists had beaten them, and the streets where clashes took place were stained with blood.
Late on Thursday, small-scale clashes broke out between hundreds of protesters and Saleh supporters near Sanaa university, residents said. At least one man was hurt.
Amnesty International said in a statement: "Yemenis have a legitimate right to freedom of expression and assaults against both them and journalists covering their protests are totally unacceptable."
Saleh, a U.S. ally against a resurgent wing of al-Qaida in Yemen that has launched attacks on foreign and regional targets, is struggling to quell month-old protests now erupting daily.
"We won't stop until this regime falls. We've been patient long enough," said student Salah Abdullah in Sanaa.
Around 3,000 people began their nightly rally in Taiz, where protesters have camped out in a central square for several days.
"Down with the regime, down with the oppressors," they shouted. No injuries were reported.
Young people say they are angry about corruption and soaring unemployment. A third of the Arabian Peninsula state's people face chronic hunger and 40 percent live on less than $2 a day.
The government, whose authority is weak outside Sanaa, is struggling to cement a truce with northern Shi'ite rebels and suppress an increasingly violent southern separatist movement.
Trying to calm the streets, Saleh has made concessions such as a promise to step down when his term ends in 2013 and a vow not to let his son inherit power.
The opposition coalition, which had drawn tens of thousands in rallies, has agreed to talk with him. But smaller protests have continued, organised by students and other activists using mobile text messages and Facebook.
"The protests are taking on a younger look and the inability of the opposition parties to control them is bad news for President Saleh," said Charles Dunbar of Boston University.
"The U.S. and the international community would have real cause for worry in a post-Saleh world in Yemen where the state in general and the army in particular are not in a position to maintain control should he leave."
Analysts say any uprising in Yemen, neighbour to top oil exporter Saudi Arabia, is unlikely to lead to sudden government collapse. But unrest could unfold slowly and lead to more bloodshed in a country where one in two people own a gun.
Protests broke out in Ibb, south of Sanaa, Hodeidah in the west and Baidah in the east, each with a few hundred people.
Security forces have used force more readily in the south. The Aden municipality said it had suspended its activities in protest against the police use of violence and has promised to pay compensation for those wounded in the protests.
Saleh has toured provinces to rally support and sent his vice president to Aden on Thursday to investigate the violence.
Muslim preachers loyal to Saleh stepped into the political fray in a country where religious and tribal allegiances are often stronger than political ones. They have called for a unity government but said Saleh should stay in power.

If you use YouTube, you need to know this.
You've heard all these rumblings about Net Neutrality over the past several months. Let's get real: this is about controlling online video. It is estimated that by 2017, video content will account for 80-90% of all global Internet traffic.
This isn't just about not being able to binge-watch a series on Netflix. It's about the future of online video as we know it.
Whether your YouTube channel is home to daily vlogs, short films, or just that one video from when the cinnamon challenge seemed like a good idea, you're a video creator. Your content and comments help shape this community. Let's keep it that way.
Net Neutrality means that your YouTube videos reach people at the same speed as clips from last night's episode of the Tonight Show. It means a level playing field for video creators looking to reach an audience. But new Net Neutrality rules could mess that up.
Here's the deal: Telecommunications companies already charge us to access the Internet through our homes and our phones. New FCC rules could allow them to also charge content providers (like YouTube, Netflix, and even PBS) for access to our eyeballs. It could create a fast lane for Jimmy Fallon's clips, and slow lane for your YouTube videos.
It is really important that the FCC understands that online video creators care about Net Neutrality. Even if you've only ever uploaded ONE VIDEO, you are a creator and you have a voice.
If you can, please add your channel to our petition. We'll deliver this to the FCC in September and demonstrate that the online video community cares about this issue.

Online Video is Nothing Like TV (But it Will Be if We Can't Think Differently)
Everything about online video is different from television (aside from the fact that lots of images are displayed in sequence in order to create the illusion of movement.)
The way the content is made is different, the mindset of the audience is different, the way social structures and fandoms are built is different, the kind of engagement is different, the barrier to entry is non-existent, the rate of change is at least doubled.
But humans are not good at thinking about things differently. Something new exists and, unless we are very young, we attempt to put it in an existing box…or some combination of existing boxes. Online video looks like television, so let's create "Networks." Let's call the page of each creator a "Channel." Let's call the thing they do a "Show." And the people themselves are "Stars."
Of course this is what we do…creating new words is a hassle, especially when you're trying to convince existing structures (like your mom, Hollywood executives, and Madison Avenue) that this thing is legitimate and interesting. So you use those old boxes.
The problem is, the more we use those old boxes, the more everything starts to look like the thing that came before it.
If we call collections of YouTube channels "Networks" everyone thinks about them like they're Networks (especially in legacy media.) Then eventually creators start thinking about them as "online TV networks" when really, the needs of online video creators are completely different from the needs of TV creators.
Suddenly, online video starts looking more like TV not because it should or anyone wants it to, but just because we lack the collective imagination to think of it differently.
This is an old problem…and not one that can be completely avoided. People aren't very adaptable. It's like complaining that it snows in Montana…it's so expensive to plow the streets, and there are more car accidents, it's a drain on the economy! But, like, you can't make it SNOW LESS, that's ridiculous.
But to some extent (and maybe not a huge extent) you can change social structures and you can change people. Not to match precisely what online video would be in it's purest state, but to let some of its unique properties shine through. This will happen no matter what, but I think it will happen /more/ if we're conscious about it…AND if we put people who actually understand it in charge of some of its more influential structures (YouTube, MCNs, Awards Shows.)
But that's not what we're doing. For a few years, YouTube has been led by a guy from Hollywood…so has Maker Studios…so has AwesomenessTV. YouTube is now in the hands of a stronger CEO who is at least from the tech world, which has much less in common with online video than TV does.
That might seem like a bad thing, but I don't think it is. I think coming at new media with fresh eyes is much better than coming at it with pre-defined boxes. Thinking, "Oh, I see, so this is kinda like a channel…but different in a few ways," gives you a much less accurate picture than thinking, "This is like nothing I've ever seen before…what exactly is it?"
I (and probably you) came at online video with entirely fresh eyes. I knew nothing about hollywood structures or the roles that networks or agents or awards or channels played in the creation of media. I knew media existed, but the structures that surrounded them were entirely unknown and opaque to me.
But most people in the online video business did not enter with that innocence, and I think that's too bad. There are very few people who understand online video solely within the framework of online video in this industry, especially people who have differentiated themselves and gained enough experience to not only /be/ experts, but to be recognized as experts (which are two very different things.)
We're headed into a world where the people who really get it are getting old enough to differentiate themselves and bring both authenticity and expertise into this industry, but it's a bit of a battle at the moment…especially because a lot of the bigger companies have already got it into their heads that TV and online video really are very similar.
And if they think that for long enough, my fear is that eventually, it will become true. Not because it is, but simply because we lacked imagination.
So if you're into this…figure out ways to differentiate yourself as an expert who should be recognized as such…then please, send me your resume.

Amazon textbook rentals: fine-print bans taking books over state lines
If you thought Google deleting your ebooks when you cross a border is unreasonable, check this out: Amazon's textbook rental service comes with fine-print that allows the company to bill your credit card for the full amount if they think you've crossed a state line with it. It's not clear exactly what's going on here, but all signs point to this being part of Amazon's strategy for avoiding having to pay state sales-tax.

I ONCE HAD the pleasure of hearing a historically informed performance of a Bach sonata played on an organ made by master builder John Brombaugh. Brombaugh organs are tuned in what is called unequal temperament. It is a bizarrely little-known fact, but today's tuning standard, equal temperament, is a relatively modern system. To hear Glenn Gould plunk away at Bach on a piano is a historical goof. Today, if confronted with Gould performing his music on a contemporary instrument, Bach would most likely wonder, "Why is this Canadian guy playing my compositions out of tune?" Like computer software, music is a set of instructions performed in real time on various instruments, and like all technologies, parts of these systems can become obsolete—even something as common as what we hear as C major. Moreover, technology—like taste—does not necessarily proceed in a straight line. If we traveled back to the 1700s and heard Bach play, we might just as easily ask, "Why is he playing his own stuff out of tune?" Hierarchies of authenticity might be best considered relative.
A historically informed setting for the images discovered by this preservation effort would dictate that the following real-time systems be strung together: Warhol's images would be need to be visualized in real time and in real space by a period- specific, analog, cathode-ray-tube Amiga monitor hooked up to an Amiga 1000 running the specific version of GraphiCraft found on Warhol's disk, booted using Amiga Kickstart 26.7, all running on US 110V, 60Hz power. This is the only performance of these sketches that would be 100 percent accurate to 1985. The images you see reproduced here are renderings of the raw digital files for contemporary print and Web—a Gould version, if you will. Luckily, though, we might be on the right track, because the performance of these images is not entirely limited to a given medium, technology, or period, any more than an image can exist as a true original, as Warhol knew better than anyone. In 1986, when asked how he would like to see his sketches displayed, Warhol replied, "Well, we could get a printout. I could just print this out if we had the printer." I hope he would have been OK with making a few thousand copies.

You'll Never Walk Alone
reblogged for @_stunned, whose artistic practice includes walking.
If walking is the most philosophical way of getting around, solitary strolls in nature won't cut it. You have to choose who to march alongside.
Ways of getting around come with their own outlooks on the world. Cars, Americans are told again and again, mean freedom and comfort. Yet they can just as well be a burden, from the social costs of car-dependent communities to the way cars turn drivers into isolated individuals raging at the world outside their little metal box. Public transit can feel frustrating, involving lots of waiting and plodding routes. But there's a solidarity that emerges on the subway or bus, the feeling that we're all in it together, that makes it feel democratic. Whereas walking, trusting your own two feet, can mark one out as an interloper. It's the mode of the solitary thinker, the flâneur, the backpacker. Yet it can be just as much a communal activity – from the solidarity of through-hikers on the Appalachian Trail to the crowd at a demonstration, people are on their own two feet together. The ambivalence of walking, which makes room for solo saunters and mass marches alike, has made it attractive to quite a few artists and thinkers.
For Frédéric Gros, a Parisian professor and Foucault specialist, walking is also the most philosophical way of getting around. In A Philosophy of Walking (originally published as Marcher: une philosophie in 2009), Gros expounds a view of the world in which walking is the cure for all modernity's indignities. Setting off on a walk is self-liberation, discarding drab duties or even rejecting a "rotten, polluted, alienating, shabby civilization" for an ascetic freedom. Given his interest in Foucault, one might expect Gros to see the aimless, rambling walk as an evasive countermeasure against surveillance and discipline. But his emphasis is more on the philosophical, timeless value of wandering. He brings home the extent to which walking, practically the simplest activity there is, has been made almost peculiar in most societies. Yet his fundamentally Romantic sensibility leads him to an odd vision of the practice—so caught up in the sublime and lofty that it misses what's at its own feet.
David Suchet has been playing Belgian detective Hercule Poirot since 1989. After a 13-season run, Poirot, the mystery series based on Agatha Christie's novels, has come to an end. The series is now on Acorn TV, streaming online. David Bianculli reflects on the long-running show:
But since these are, absolutely, the last TV episodes featuring Suchet as Poirot, they do provide a satisfying conclusion to a very long-running viewing experience. The actor has grown into the role, sporting wrinkles to match the wisdom, and perfecting the twinkle in his eye whenever, as the detective himself would put it, Poirot has finally solved the case as only Poirot can. And think of it: The actors of the current movie Boyhood have gotten lots of praise for filming and playing their roles over a 12-year period. David Suchet, as Hercule Poirot, has done the same thing for twice as long.
He's done it so long, in fact, that he's ending his run on a medium that didn't even exist when he started. Wrap your little grey cells around that…

Customer Reviews
The size I ordered is the size I have in other boots that fit just fine. This pair was too tight.
The boots were nice, but the boots were size 10 in a box that said size 12. Had to return because I needed size 12's, and SG was out of stock, of course.
Great boot. Very comfortable. A good bit bulkier than the 800g version for my tastes. Returned.
The boots that I ordered started off great but the metal eyes at or near the top of the boots has sharp edges and cuts into my legs.
Good boots and comfortable.

In this season would be better if it started with white, white, clean and beautiful will emit something different in our appearance on the season now.In a season dominated by white, it seemed fitting to close out the week with Francisco Costa's Calvin Klein. That whole cliché about saving the best for last certainly holds true in the case of this positively chic lineup that pretty much defines the new minimal. His whites, which he called anything but "white," came in an arresting parade of boxy suits and louche dresses.
Sexiness, in fact, was really the point of the collection. Not an overt way but rather in the deep-V of an otherwise covered-up black dress or the racerback of a straight mini with pockets.Costa added in a trio of brightly colored dresses, one red and two blue. These were stiff, short, and sexy in their severity.

The downloadable instructions are exactly identical to the instructions you can view on the site and they are both for this project.
We will look over the instructions to see if we can edit them to be a bit more clear, however.
Oct 18, 2010, 10.55 AMby katexxxxxx
IGNORE the downloadable instructions! Use the ones online. The downloadable ones are for a completely different jacket! The ones you can access by clicking on the instruction tab seem to be fairly straight forward and sensible, though they do lack illustrations.

Aug 23, 2010, 08.12 PMby two-windmills
Love the jacket, but the instructions are woefully inadequate and appear to have been written for a different pattern altogether. The numbers & letters on the list of pattern pieces don't correspond with the numbers on the pieces themselves, the instructions refer to pockets and pocket flaps, which are not part of the pattern at all, etc. There are also some mysterious lines on a couple of the pattern pieces which seem important, but are not labeled on the pieces or addressed in the instructions at all. I wouldn't recommend downloading this one unless you feel like doing a lot of puzzle solving.
Aug 28, 2010, 10.25 AMby abeigh
I completely agree. The instructions are shocking and I'm still trying to work them out. I should actually be grateful that there are any instructions at all, since a lot of the patterns on here don't have any. I making it first from muslim just in case I mess it up.

Getting Out the Vote
Submitted: 11/03/2012
Story By Kailey Burton
- The election is just 3 days away, and politicians are using every last minute to reach out to voters.
Today in Rhinelander Democratic candidate for the 34th Assembly District, Merlin Van Buren took to the streets.
Van Buren estimates he's knocked on more than 3 thousand doors during this election season. He says his knowledge of the education system, and experience on the school board gives him an edge over Republican opponent, Rob Swearingen.
He also says the economy and budget deficits are weighing heavily on voter's minds.
"Taxes are always a general issue on people's minds, making sure we keep taxes low. I have no problem with that. I think we can balance the budget, and we can fund what we need to fund without raising taxes," said Van Buren.
Van Buren continues to reach out to voters on foot, and is focused on getting them to the polls. He says his grassroots effort is indicative of his priorities.
"I'm going there [to Madison] to represent them. I have no special interest group that is sponsoring my campaign or supporting my campaign. It's me, and it's the people of the 34th that have given me money basically."

Wisconsin water supplies deal with two contaminants during 2013
Submitted: 08/20/2014
- Wisconsin keeps high standards for clean drinking water. On a yearly basis, they do a good job at meeting that standard, but during 2013, more water supplies were found with one of two contaminants.
One contaminant, nitrate was found in more than double the amount of water supplies during the year compared to 2012. The 56 public water supplies found with high nitrate levels is a small number out of the thousands of water supplies in the state, but it can still be a big problem.

"So they're learning how to start a garden, what you have to do for a garden, and what supplies are needed to start a garden. Some of them are a year or two into their gardens and are looking to learn maintenance or funding strategies to keep those gardens going."

Cranberry harvest numbers may slide compared to last several years
Submitted: 08/19/2014
Play Video
- Cranberry growers in Wisconsin work hard every year to produce the fruit. But they may not be able to harvest as many berries this season.
Cranberry growers don't expect an overly large crop this year. This comes after several years of great harvests in the state.
The numbers might not be as high, but farmers say they won't be disappointed with this year's cranberry results.
"Overall I think it will be a decent crop," says Bob Winter, owner and manager of Vilas Cranberry Company. "There's been some hail in the southern part of the state and even in western Wisconsin, so that takes its toll, but cumulatively how much that really is remains to be seen. You never know until you get it all in the barn at the end of October."

Asylum-seekers in Germany are typically housed in group homes, where living conditions are often crowded and lacking in privacy. But the city of Leverkusen, near Cologne, has developed an alternative.
Out of fear, he doesn't want to say where he fled from, or why. But he is happy to talk about his experience in Germany - and how pleased he is to be living in his own apartment.
Ahmed K. is sitting in the Caritas office for integration and migration in Leverkusen, which hired the Catholic charity to advise and mentor refugees. They currently number around 500 here and were assigned to the western German city according to a national allocation formula.
Ahmed K. is happy to have been sent to Leverkusen. He's been in Germany for two years, and his family of four has been living in their own apartment for the past year. "It's a 70-square-meter, three-bedroom apartment," he says proudly. "That's very good."
Mass housing typical
Having one's own apartment is the norm in many parts of Germany, but not for refugees. German regulations on the asylum process provide for collective housing for asylum-seekers that "reflect the public interest and interests of the foreigner."
Whether the accommodations provided truly meet that standard is questionable. In the past, there have been instances of German asylum-seeker group homes being set ablaze - sometimes to applause of locals. Recent protests and counter-protests at a Berlin group home show that refugees' presence can still be divisive, and the housing developments continue to be targets for right-wing extremists.
Untenable conditions
For the past 10 years, Leverkusen has been implementing a housing policy intended to minimize refugees' isolation. Frank Stein, head of Leverkusen's social services department, described the transitional housing that was used before as being "in a completely desolate state." He explained, "When you have portable units where 40 or 50 people are living with just one toilet and one shower, you can imagine how shameful the situation was, especially for families."
Today there's just one transitional home, in a somewhat rural zone at the edge of the city. It doesn't seem particularly inviting here, either: from the outside, the facility looks rather old and run-down. Perks include a children's playground and the proximity to a nearby bus stop. About 300 people live here - the majority of the approximately 500 individuals living in Leverkusen while seeking asylum.
Less than welfare
Ahmed K. lived at this facility with his family for a year before moving into an apartment. "The common housing was not so good," Ahmed K. told DW. "There was only cold water in the room, and the toilet and shower at the end of the hallway had to be shared. For a family, that was not a very good situation."
"Of course, families try to move out as soon as possible," said Lioba Engels-Barry, head of Caritas' integration and migration office. About a third of the refugees manage this within a year.
Although Caritas provides some support for the families in their apartment search, they are mostly on their own along the way - which is no small task in the metropolitan area around Cologne, where there's a shortage of affordable housing.
For their apartment, the state grants asylum-seekers about 20 percent less than a welfare recipient: 442 euros ($583) for rent without utilities, per month, for a family of four.
City pays less
Aside from the societal and humanitarian benefits of decentralized accommodation for asylum-seekers, there are also financial advantages since costs for renovation and personnel are reduced. "Over the past decade, we've saved in the magnitude of roughly a million euros," Stein said.
Ahmed K. and his family were able to find an apartment in Leverkusen after about a year. He reported that his ability to communicate in German has markedly improved since the move, as he now has contact with German neighbors.
These days, he's able to live in a way that he describes as half-way normal. But it's unclear how long that will last. He has permission to stay in Germany only for the next two years, and his asylum application is still under review.
For Syrian refugees in Sweden, an announcement that they will be granted permanent residence is a blessing. Will other EU countries follow Sweden's example? And what about refugees who come therafter? (07.09.2013)
Most of the asylum seekers coming from the former Soviet Union are from the Russian North Caucasus. They come speaking of poverty and violence - and are also spurred on by a rumor of Germany's open door policy. (30.08.2013)
Success in Saxony state elections for the AfD, Germany's euroskeptic party, is unsettling for Merkel and her CDU in Berlin. However, the party isn't anything to be afraid of, says political scientist Oskar Niedermayer.
German carmaker Volkswagen is expecting the go-ahead for a factory in Thailand, newspaper reports have claimed. The company aims to strengthen its position in markets with enormous growth prospects.
Manuel Neuer, Bastian Schweinsteiger or perhaps even Thomas Müller: who will be the next captain of Germany? Ahead of Joachim Löw's nomination of a national team captain on Tuesday, we analyze some of the favorites.
On September 1, 1939, German troops under Adolf Hitler's Nazi regime launched an attack on Poland. The countries' presidents have come together 75 years later in commemoration of the event that marked the start of WWII.

Obama gives student loan issue the old college try
Send this story to a friend
- Kent Hoover
- Washington Bureau Chief
- Email | Twitter | Google
Surrounded by college students in the Rose Garden, President Barack Obama today called on Congress to stop interest rates on federal student loans from doubling on July 1.
That's important not only for students, but also for the economy, Obama argued.
The average college student that takes out loans to finance their education owes more than $26,000 when they graduate, Obama said. If interest rates double July 1 to 6.8 percent, that will add another $1,000 to their debt load, he said.
High student loan debt means young people are forced to put off purchasing new cars or buying a house -- the kinds of things that grow the economy, Obama said.
"It holds back our entire middle class," he said.
Then he got personal.
"Michelle and I didn't finish paying off our student loans until nine years ago," Obama said. "It was costing us more than our mortgage."
Last year Congress faced the same situation, and ended up passing legislation to extend existing rates on federal student loans for another year.
This year, facing the same July 1 deadline, the House passed legislation May 23 that would peg interest rates for new student loans at 2.5 percentage points above the rate for 10-year Treasury notes. The bill also caps the rate at 8.5 percent.
House Speaker John Boehner called the bill "a responsible way to deal honestly with the issue of student loans."
Obama, however, contends some borrowers could end up paying higher interest rates under the House bill than they would if Congress did nothing at all. Plus the legislation doesn't include safeguards for lower-income students, he said.
"The House bill isn't smart; it isn't fair," the president said.
