Are the Top7 Intelligent Communities of 2013 the seven best places to live in the universe? I seriously doubt it. There. I have said it in public. Actually, I have been saying it in public for over 10 years. But let me ask a more important question: is Olivia Culpo, the reigning Miss Universe, beautiful? Yes. Is she also an exceptionally talented woman? I think so. (Let the photograph below be your guide to the first question. Her performance in Carnegie Hall, as a cellist, is my answer to the second.) She is truly beautiful and talented, as millions of people now know, including the children of Cranston Public Library in Rhode Island, where she read them Shel Silver story time programs. But is Olivia the most beautiful woman in the entire Universe? After all, she claimed the title of Miss Universe 2012. Here we get into the challenges and opportunities of global awards programs. She is certainly equal to Miss China and Miss Belgium and Miss Bolivia. But what about Miss Mars, Miss Jupiter and way out Miss Epsilon Eridani? The Universe is a BIG place, and it remains difficult to accurately assess every planet. So can we objectively say that Ms Culpo is THE ONE? Yes. Why? Because what we do know is that she won the crown with credentials and a performance that exceeded all others based on a criteria that was established and agreed upon to measure her and the other entrants. She racked up the points. She now brings joy, optimism, intelligence, focus and physical beauty to a global audience. Isn't it wonderful? She says that she seeks to develop herself and to discover her destiny, while having found herself in a position to help others. She sounds a lot like the leaders of ICF's Top7. Like them, she also arrived at her mountaintop through a competitive process. The process combined subjective judging with a quantitative evaluation. Every year the Top7 and Intelligent Community of the Year are similarly selected . Our process works exactly as intended. It is not designed to find the absolute greatest place on the face of the earth to live, but rather one that most communities in the world agree is a fine representative of what a community should be. That is essential when considering where to invest, build a future or remain when other parts of the world flirt with you. Today, the current Top7 are preparing for an ICF site visit, to be followed in early June by their appearance in New York to see which will wear the ultimate crown. The great part about our awards program is how it fires- up communities, brings them together for a common cause and gives them a reward for their incredibly hard work. You see it in their media. The number of likes reported from today's article in Estonian World, which reported on Tallinn's return to the Top7, is "huge," according to editor Silver Tambur. Similar reports have come in from the others, especially citizens in Columbus, Ohio and Toronto, Canada. Our awards program goes a long way toward giving the Intelligent Community movement seven communities that demonstrate objective proof of accomplishment. More important, the data we glean from their multipart nomination forms, site visits and final evaluations enables us to draw a baseline for success. This is data helps others to accelerate and is central to our work and our Master Class project. Like Miss Culpo, who was an unknown before the tournament, these often modest communities are no longer curiosities. Everyone knows, now, that Taiwan has committed itself to becoming a nation packed with Intelligent Communities. Ditto Canada. No longer are "no named" communities named Taichung, Stratford and Tallinn achieving at a very high level in relative darkness. They are a focus for study, celebration and inspiration. True, not all Intelligent Communities are physically striking, proving that it takes more than a pretty face to succeed. It takes more than IT prowess, despite today's overreliance on it. It even takes more than a technology park, academic patents or persistent innovation to become a truly successful community. It takes a new type of collective beauty and a redefinition of community altogether. I ask whether there is anything more beautiful and powerful than an attractive place, which is producing jobs, oozing with talent and is joyfully committed to telling itself and its children stories that they will pass on for generations about the year people stopped wanting them for their body, and instead became endlessly fascinated by their intelligence.
On January 23, for the 12th consecutive time, ICF named its Top7 Intelligent Communities of the Year. There were two European cities, two Asian communities and three North Americans. That's a pretty average spread – but there was little else average about the group.
For one thing, they skewed large. Over the past five years, the Top7 averaged 440,000 in population. In 2013, the average population of the Top7 was 1.2 million because, for the first time, they included three cities with more than 2 million inhabitants.
Something else about the 2013 Top7 stood out. There was a dramatic and instructive spread between what I think of as the Center and the Edge. Toronto, Canada's finance capital, is an example of a Top7 community clearly at the Center. The biggest city in Canada, it is the hub of a region of 6 million people that produced C$286 billion in GDP in 2012.
Oulu, on the other hand, is a community on the Edge. It is in Finland, a country whose entire population is slightly outnumbered by that of the Greater Toronto Area. It takes six hours to reach Oulu by car from Helsinki, Finland's business and political capital – considerably more time than it takes to go from Oulu to the Arctic Circle only 200 km north. But it is a highly successful tech hub with a global reputation for innovation in wireless and a growing roster of other technologies. Utterly different from Toronto, it is just as great a place to live, to work and to raise a family.
In more than a decade of work with communities, we have seen that success is not a matter of size or wealth. Those things are not causes – they are results. Their success is the product of a belief that they are at the burning center of the human universe. They have something special to offer the world and are hungry to see what the world has to offer them. They have the power to think big even if, in physical terms, they stay small.
One of our first-time Smart21 communities – which did not yet make it into the Top7 – offers a great example. It is the city of Mitchell, home to 15,000 souls on the plains of South Dakota USA.
Mitchell is the Center of a region on the Edge – one that has lost 30% of its population over the past 70 years. But Mitchell's fate is not that of its region. With a willing private communications company and a Federal broadband stimulus grant, Mitchell developed a fiber-to-the-premise network serving every business and residence. Its university and technical school have leveraged the city's agricultural heritage into academic leadership in precision agriculture, in which farmers use satellite and remote sensing data to develop a highly detailed portrait of their land and apply that knowledge to boost yields.
They also work closely with city government, business, and public institutions to promote digital literacy and supply the highly trained workforce in increasing demand by area businesses. These include software companies, data centers and consulting firms attracted by Mitchell's network or fostered by its construction. Alone in its region, Mitchell has grown both in population and prosperity.
Today, "the middle of nowhere" could just as easily be a street corner in a crumbling city as a town on the prairie. Which is the Center and which is the Edge? In a global economy woven tightly together by information and communication technology, it is no longer so easy to tell.
Honolulu, Hawaii (USA) – On Monday morning, the local Hawaiian newspaper reported that the article with the most hits on its website over the last 24 hours was the story about Manti T'eo, a native son and a star football player at far-away Notre Dame University, a cold place situated on what Hawaiians call "the mainland." The young man had evidently been hoaxed. He had been having an affair with a fake girlfriend on the Internet for three years. The hoax went so far as to report her death, which generated national sympathy for him. As a graduate of the same college as Manti, I don't want to dwell on the story, but in a state that many describe as being "30 years behind" in terms of access and development of the type Intelligent Communities take for granted, one wonders if the locals might not want to bypass the 21st century altogether for a good reason.
Of course, they do not. They simply want to ensure that one of the world's most alluring, diverse and remarkable spots in the known universe not lose what has been essential to it since volcanoes erupted and shaped this great jewel of the American union. My idea of "surfing" and theirs need to find a happy medium. (When I am here I lean toward theirs BTW…)
This challenge was central to a long and delightful discussion I had with the state's CIO, Sanjeev Bhagowalia. He has been brought over from a string of high profile jobs in Washington, DC, where he served another local resident and graduate of Punahou High School, Barack Obama, as a federal CIO. Earlier in the day his new boss, Hawaii's Governor Abercrombie, had started his annual address to the state saying: "Politics at its best is about community." It was made clear to me that community and tribalism are central to understanding Hawaii's genius and also its resistance to broadband. The governor has been pushing, with very limited success, to transform the islands into something at least approximating a Intelligent Community. Honolulu has submitted several nominations to ICF, but has never come close to the Smart21 list. The governor and the CIO want that to change. That state is upgrading its information technology systems and spending US$20 million over the next 24 months to encourage innovation. But will this be the secret sauce? The trigger for transformation? Maybe and maybe not. Sanjeev and his team know that somehow, some way, the "Aloha" philosophy, which is central to culture and its economic attitudes, must find its expression in a complex mix of broadband access, capacity building, collaboration and cultural "mining." There will be no Silicon Valley here. Yet Hawaii is designed to be the "spear" of the new American approach to Asia and its vast opportunities. What will that mean? More technology for the American naval fleet? Already 1 out of every 10 people in Hawaii is a military veteran. (The rest appear to sunburned "mainlanders." Tourists. Or so it seems.) Hawaii has a brain drain. No urban planning. No beta test communities, except a brief experiment with 100 gbs in one place, which ended. It is challenged, but like most places, it is developing (slowly) the will to transform and seize its destiny. We will see.
A few hours before I met with Sanjeev, I had a chance to meet Manti T'eo's great-aunt. She is the most lovely, charming woman imaginable. She cannot understand how anyone could have a relationship "online." Rather than break the news to her that Facebook has allowed many people to befriend perfect strangers (trust me, she knows this because she's very wise) I asked her about her community. It is a closeknit clan on Maui. Samoans who look out for each other, especially in a crisis. They rally around their own, which is an instinct that in my view is very healthy. Yet, as Sanjeev and his team reflect, it is also the challenge to bringing everyone together to summon the great gift of "Aloha" for the generations ahead.
What's the difference between a Smart City and an Intelligent Community? For my third and final post on the topic, here's a specific example from Riverside, California, USA, our 2012 Intelligent Community of the Year.
Smart Cities turn to technology for the solution to their problems, from traffic congestion to leakage from water mains, public safety to parking tickets. Intelligent Communities turn to technology as a fundamental enabler of transformation: a foundation for building a prosperous, inclusive and sustainable community in the 21st Century.
Intelligent Communities tend to be Smart without making a big deal about it. The smartness comes as a byproduct of transformation – necessary steps on the path to something that makes a much greater difference in the lives of the people who live and work there.
Riverside offers a great example. It used to have a big problem with graffiti left by gangs, who like to "tag" their territory. Graffiti matters, just as broken windows and boarded-up storefronts matter, because they signal to both the law-abiding and the law-breaking that things are out of control. They tend to breed fear on the one hand and crime on the other.
To combat graffiti, the city worked with Microsoft to build an innovative system connecting multiple departments. City workers take photos of graffiti with their smartphones and transmit them along with GPS data to the system, where pattern recognition software matches it to an ever-growing database of images. In most cases, police can identify the "tagger" based on past examples of his work. The system generates work orders for removal of the graffiti at the same time it supports preparation of criminal complaints by the City Attorney. Since its introduction, successful prosecutions have generated $200,000 in restitution, which helps pay for the removal of a lot of gang tags.
But technology is also the foundation for a much more profound change. A public-private SmartRiverside organization operates a Digital Inclusion Center that gets technology and training into the hands of low-income families. The technology comes from a unique collaboration between a computer services company that collects e-waste, and a gang prevention program called Project Bridge.
The company hires and trains former gang members recruited by Project Bridge to refurbish the used PCs. Equipment that cannot be refurbished is sold to a certified local recycler. Working equipment other than PCs is refurbished and sold on eBay, and these sources of revenue help pay for the program. Former gang members gain marketable job skills while knowing they are contributing to their community. And, like graffiti removal, the program returns revenue to cover its costs.
These are not technology solutions to public-sector problems. They represent technology transforming government operations, the business environment, the educational system and the civic culture. It is like the outcome of the first Internet revolution, which was supposed to doom brick-and-mortar businesses to obsolescence. Instead, brick-and-mortar businesses embraced the technology and allowed the way they work to be transformed by it.
Different definitions produce different results. To him who holds a hammer, everything looks like a nail. To her with a full box of tools, the problems are more diverse and subtle and the solutions infinitely more rewarding.
Post #2: Building the 'Shake 'n Bake' City Post #1: 'Smart' or 'Intelligent?' – Which Should a City Try to Be?
When we were first married, my wife and I lived off canned soup and other prepackaged delights, until the urge for survival drove us to begin experimenting with the culinary arts. One of the first steps on our journey was a product called Shake 'n Bake. You bought chicken parts , put them in a plastic bag with the product, shook it thoroughly to coat the meat, then baked it. What came out was a breaded entrée that tasted – well, at that time, I thought it tasted fine. Now that I can actually cook, I have a different view. Shake 'n Bake came to mind the first time I heard about ambitious plans for creating whole new cities to meet national economic development goals. My first exposure was to the Multimedia Super Corridor in Malaysia, a 1996 plan to create a high-tech corridor 15 kilometers wide and 50 km long where only rubber plantations then existed. The Corridor exists in name only but two Shake 'n Bake cities were built: Putrajaya, where Malaysia's government relocated in the last decade, and Cyberjaya, a vast technology park. In 2010, construction began on Abu Dhabi's Masdar City, a $22 billion project that is designed to produce zero emissions or waste while becoming the core of a cleantech cluster in the Emirates. In Russia, MIT is developing a new university that aims to be the heart of the Skolkovo Innovation Center, a brainchild of former President Dmitry Medvedev that aims to inject high-tech cool into the heart of Moscow. Still on the drawing board are Charter Cities, a concept developed by economist Paul Romer for "reform cities" that, planted in developing nations with weak governance and poor infrastructure, are supposed to serve as inspirational islands that will jumpstart broader changes across the country.These are magnificent visions: soaring above the mundane, challenging precedent and inspiring high ambition. I think they may do some good. But I am really grateful that nobody is investing my money in them. The good they will do – those projects that ever get past the talking and planning stage, that is – will be a lot like the good done by America's $40 billion investment in the Apollo program. America got a lot of nice TV footage and a flag planted on the Moon. America and the rest of the world also got an information and telecommunications industry that produced trillions of dollars in value and is still in the early stages of revolutionizing life on earth. A pretty good investment overall – but you don't see any lunar colonies, do you?I just don't think we are smart enough to build Shake 'n Bake cities that will actually work. The City of Tokyo used loans from the national government in the 1980s and 1990s to build a massive, $3 billion island in Tokyo Harbor to serve as a new high-tech district. Ten years later, a city executive told me the money was largely wasted.
I don't think we know how to manage the long time span of the investments, the battle between vested interests, the legal and regulatory reforms needed, the national sensitivities and the personal egos involved. If cities are, in the words of Richard Florida, "our greatest inventions," they are inventions arrived at after thousands of years of trial and error. They are complex in the same way that clouds are complex, and we apparently have no clue as to how those work. To really appreciate that complexity, you have only to listen to a news story that was broadcast by America's National Public Radio in October. "Why New York Is A Hub In The Global Trinket Trade" explains the unlikely set of circumstances that have made 29th Street in Manhattan the hub of a global trade network in fake gold chains, souvenir lighters and plastic toys. Listen to it and then tell me: who could have anticipated that?I think we can figure out, with the help of great technology companies, how to make cities smarter. I know we can rise to the greater challenge of the Intelligent Community: using information and communications technology to create new competitive advantages for your economy while solving big social problems and enriching the value of your culture. But throw a plan for a city into a bag, shake it, bake it and a few years later see a fully-functioning Smart City? I just don't think we're that smart.
Post #3: Smart or Intelligent? Why Not Be Both? Post #1: 'Smart' or 'Intelligent?' – Which Should a City Try to Be?

It doesn't take a formal list to know that Justin Bieber and the guys of One Direction are biggest stars under 21 right now. So, it's not really surprising they top Billboard 's 21 Under 21: Music's Hottest Minors 2012.
Justin Bieber is the hottest youngster on the scene. He's currently prepping a world tour and just wrapped up a music video for his latest single, the Nicki Minaj-assisted "Beauty and a Beat," off his #1 Believe album .
"I was very involved in the process [of making this album] — I played instruments, produced, wrote — so I want people to know it's not all hype," he told MTV News about prepping his highly anticipated album. "I want people to know I've been working hard on my music. Focus on the music. Don't think I'm just this product pushed out there. I work hard, and music is really important to me."
Runners up One Direction took their fandom international when they dropped their debut album, and they haven't looked back. The British boy band is prepping the release of their sophomore album release, Take Me Home, and have fans buzzing with excitement for the release of its lead single, "Live While We're Young."
Demi Lovato is the only lady in the top three. Sitting at #3, the "X Factor" judge has reinvented her career and launched herself as a pop star (her song "Give Your Heart A Break" recently went to #1 on the charts).
"The reception for my single is so amazing," she told MTV News. "It's been going up the charts for a while now and right now I actually have my first #1 single, so that's really exciting for me. It means so much to me. I never thought I'd be blessed enough to have this opportunity and here I am."
The remainder of the top 10 is incredibly diverse. "American Idol" singer Scotty McCreery narrowly missed the top spots at #4, with rap sensation Mac Miller right behind at #5. Bieber's best girl, Selena Gomez, fell to #6 this year after a top-three appearance on the 2011 list. EDM star Porter Robinson leaped to #7 after appearing on the list last year at #18.
One-time "X Factor" contestant Cher Lloyd is #8, followed by Odd Future's Earl Sweatshirt, who beat out Nick Jonas. Nick made the top 10 thanks to the recent reunion of the Jonas Brothers and his presence on Broadway.
The rest of the list is filled out with a mixed bag of viral sensations, international stars and small-screen talent including, diva-in-training Jackie Evancho (#11), Cody Simpson (#12), boy banders Mindless Behavior (#13), YouTube sensations Megan and Liz (#14), Korean pop singer IU (#15), Disney princess Bridgit Mendler (#16), Mexican pop band 3Ball MTY (#17), Miley Cyrus (#18), up-and-coming dance producer Madeon (#19), Disney star Ross Lynch (#20) and Victoria Justice (#21).
Was one of your favorite minors left off the list? Let us know in the comments!

Unfortunetly when I arrived the apartment was not ready as some students had just vacated and had left the place in a mess.
Alma was abroad and her housekeeper was trying to get things straight.However as I was staying on business for just 2 days I could not wait for them to complete the work needed.
Alma agreed to refund me and apologised and I found a hotel.
It seemed like a good spot if this hadn't have happened

Eisteddfod 2012 Traditional Music Festival Honors Andy and Bill Spence
Eisteddfod, a festival of traditional folk/roots music, is giving the annual Eisteddfod award for dedication, inspiration, and service to the practice and dissemination of traditional folk music to Andy and Bill Spence.
Andy is best known as the founder and administrator of the Old Songs Festival in Altamont, New York, called "truly sublime" by Sing Out magazine. Andy and Bill were instrumental in founding Albany's Pick'n and Sing'n Gather'n. Bill, who plays multiple instruments, is best known as a virtuoso hammer dulcimer player. His bands and recordings played a major role in the revival of the hammer dulcimer.
The word "Eisteddfod" is Welsh, connoting a gathering of poets and musicians. It was adopted by Howard Glasser, the founder of this festival, when he began these gatherings of singers and musicians four decades ago.
The Folk Music Society of New York, Inc. / New York Pinewoods Folk Music Club is a non-profit 501(c)(3) educational corporation, an affiliate of the Country Dance and Song Society of America. It is run by a volunteer Board of Directors, elected by the membership. It runs concerts, weekends, classes, singing parties, and get-togethers, all with an emphasis on traditional folk music of all flavors.

Maid to Order
- Writer: Bangkok Post Editorial
- Published: August 16, 2013 at 8:27 am
Food is secondary to spectacular service at Maidreamin
A maid will pamper you since your first step into Maidreamin.
Walk down the district of Akihabara in Tokyo and one sight you won't fail to see is frilly and kawaii/cutesy-looking girls dressed up in French maid costumes _ revealing factor optional _ trying to usher customers into maid cafes scattered all around the area. In these establishments, waitresses dressed up as maids will cater to all your requests (not the primal ones, ahem) and pamper you while you enjoy your meal. If you want to "transport" to a dreamland, where you can escape the bleak and grey realities of life by the hour, Maidreamin has just recently opened at Gateway Ekamai. It's the first branch to be open outside Japan and comes complete with pink and white sofas and merry maids to keep you in high spirits.
From the ceremonious moment your maid lights up the Dream Candle, you will no longer be in the "real world". You will have travelled through portals and transformed into a master (Nai Thun or Khun Noo in Thai) which the maids eagerly await to welcome. Manufactured to be polite, buoyant and entertaining while being endearing all at the same time, the maids kneel down to take your orders and also wave enchantments at your food to make it taste better before serving it to you. Pay an extra fee and they'll sing and dance for you and you can shimmy to girly J-Pop music along with them. For those who have no idea what you're in for, visits to these types of cafes are not exactly cheap and you have to pay for everything from entrance fees by the hour to photo ops with the maids, as photography within the cafe is not allowed.
Hopping Parfait.
It's a place where food is secondary, as the customer's main intent (for the solo male ones, anyway) is to bask in some attentive company from the maids. If you've ever felt unloved, then Maidreamin is the place to be. Service here is extraordinarily cheery and the maids will never PMS on you because it is their undying duty to make sure you have a good time.
But if you've ever wanted to eat some ridiculously cute-looking food and don't have a nice Japanese mum who will make imaginative bento lunches for you, the food at Maidreamin should strike your fancy. Gigantic Omelette Rice (699 baht) is big enough for three people and although the fried rice with chicken, peas, carrot and corn is pretty generic, the fluffy omelette is delicious. The fun part, though, is getting to watch your maid affectionately draw whatever picture you'd like onto the omelette with ketchup.
Another special menu item is Kuma Dreamin (320 baht), a fried-rice teddy bear sleeping under an omelette blanket, next to a salad and fried prawns. There's no doubt about the good looks but rice packed into artificial shapes taste well, weirdly tight and chunky. The fried prawns however, are airy and fuzzy, making them the crunchy delight of this dish.
Gigantic Omelette Rice.
There are a couple of desserts to choose from, a popular choice being the Hopping Parfait (169 baht). Following the adorable animal theme, it is made to look like a pink rabbit with strawberry and vanilla ice cream, pink whipped cream, cornflakes, strawberry jam and butterfly pastries for ears. Although simple, it's always pleasant to have an ice cream smiling back at you. The other choice for dessert is Whimsical Cake (160 baht). Cake flavours change every day (no heads up too sorry, it's all secret recipes from Dream Land), but will always come with a lovely chocolate and jam Japanesey cartoon drawing on the plate. The chocolate and nutty concoction I had was not too sweet like the surroundings and had a light texture.
For all the male masters who need a drink, there are a handful of beers, sake and even champagne choices available. If you're up for a treat, pick Love Cocktail Reamin (320 baht) because a maid will come and shake it up right at your table.
I think I'd have to be somewhat hammered to enjoy something 'kiku' like this, but then again, high-pitched voices make me die a little inside and I don't want to make heart signs with my hands before I can dig into my food. Nevertheless, places like these also seem to appeal to those without anime fetishes and my maid Ruki tells me Japanese businessmen _ not young ones either _ frequent the cafe to really unwind and relax. Women may be less likely to enjoy this kawaii fiesta, but will probably appreciate the attentive service, as maids will definitely pamper you in order to try to get you to come back. There's a VIP zone upstairs where you can cast enchantments onto your food and dance without other customers seeing, so if you want to wish your worries away for an hour or two, play along and you'll probably start liking the sound of getting called a master or madame eventually.

Drummond reportedly out in BPA management shakeup
Bill Drummond is apparently no longer at the helm of the Bonneville Power Administration. Chief Operating Officer Anita Decker is also reportedly out.
The Oregonian reports that both have been placed on leave.
UPDATE, 11:40 A.M. The Washington Post reported that Drummond and Decker are being replaced after they retaliated against a six employees who'd helped an inspector general inquiry handle questions about veterans' hiring practices.
Sen. Ron Wyden, an Oregon Democrat who chairs the Energy and Natural Resources Committee, addressed the "allegations that the Bonneville Power Administration failed to follow federal rules for veteran hiring, and retaliated against whistleblowers" in a statement Tuesday morning.
"Veterans have made a special commitment to our country, and it's only right that the government make the same commitment to them," Wyden said in his statement. " The veterans preference in federal hiring is non-negotiable, and retribution against whistleblowers in any way, shape or form that affects hiring veterans cannot be tolerated.
"I'm encouraged by the fact the administration is taking these allegations seriously, but the Energy Department must ensure the Bonneville Power Administration immediately begins following the law and treating vets fairly in the hiring process."
Drummond had participated on a Wyden-led energy roundtable on July 5.
The Department of Energy, which oversees BPA, has appointed Elliot Mainzer as the interim administrator. Mainzer has been acting deputy administrator since February. He's been with the agency since 2002 and has held a variety of management positions, including manager of transmission policy and strategy and executive vice president of corporate strategy.
Drummond had been BPA administrator since January, when he took over for Steve Wright, who retired. Drummond is a 30-year power industry veteran, who had been deputy administrator since October 2011. Prior to joining BPA, Drummond was manager of the Western Montana Electric Generating and Transmission Cooperative, where he spent 17 years.
Decker had been chief operating officer since 2007. Prior to that, she spent 27 years at PacifiCorp.

Billionaire Prince sees due diligence to take 4-6 weeks; Says 1 cent dividend from Citi is for short-term
April 24, 2011 12:51 by Reuters
Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, whose firm Kingdom Holding has bid for a quarter stake in Zain Saudi, expects to complete the deal two months after finishing a due diligence process.
Kuwaiti telco Zain, which has a 25-percent stake in Zain Saudi, has conditionally accepted a $950 million offer from joint bidders Bahrain Telecommunications Co (Batelco) and Kingdom Holding.
He expects the due diligence process to take as many as six weeks to complete. "We now started… the Zain Saudi (due diligence) which is expected to take between a month to a month and half," Alwaleed told reporters in Kuwait.
"If everything goes well we expect to complete the deal of buying Zain Saudi from Zain Kuwait within 2 more months."
Last week, Zain Saudi said its first-quarter net loss narrowed as the telecoms operator offered new services and packages to lure customers but the quarterly loss was still wider than analysts forecasts.
Alwaleed, a prominent investor in Citigroup, said the U.S. bank's one cent dividend was for the short-term, adding that the bank was "on the right track."
"No doubt that the 1 cent dividend is very symbolic and is for short-term…..the leadership in Citi announced publicly that 2012 will be the year of returning shareholders capital which would happen through two ways, either increase the dividends or some share buyback," he told reporters.
A company owned by Alwaleed agreed to give back most of the land it was allocated for a farming project in southern Egypt, an Egyptian government spokesman said last week. Alwaleed told reporters that his investments in Egypt were safe but did not give more details.

Overlooking downtown Hilo and the ocean beyond, this inn sits next to a 120-foot waterfall that tumbles into a 300-foot-wide natural pond—ripe for swimming, conditions permitting. Powered by its own hydro-electric facility, the compound consists of a main residence with four guest rooms, the six-bedroom Harmony home, and the three-story Pagoda Guest House, with a bedroom and 1½ baths, perched near the cliff above the falls. All rooms have private baths. There's also a gym and workout facility. A full breakfast with Hawaiian fruit, eggs cooked to order, and Belgian waffles is served daily.

I tried to make a reservation here on-line, but twice, about an hour apart, got the reply ""Http/1.1 Service Unavailable". I phoned for a reservation and the phone rang and rang without answering, and finally the fax machine turned on and blew my ear off. I sent an e-mail saying that I made a reservation someplace else because they didn't seem to care about my business. I'm not about to make repeated calls or check back in in a couple of days
to see if his server is back on-line so that I can give him my money. About 35 minutes later, Len Sutton calls me screaming, and tells me to "Go f___ myself" before I hang up on him. Now I understand why the place was advertised as for sale in the local newspaper. Do you really want to pay hundreds of dollars to be cursed at?

we had pagoda guesthouse for one night. i have to discourage people to go there due to several things... 2 front doors of the guest house we stayed in both doesn't have lock on it, believe it or not, everyone can open the door from outside and get in the room at night! I was obliged to keep vigilant in the ebd at that night so barely wen to sleep. Furthermore, there is 1 inch to 2 inch wide gaps between the front door/screen door with the door
frame which let insects in the room at night. I got several bites at that night and it was horrible and sleepless. I communicated this to inn owner thru telephone and email but they didn't either acknowledge my complaint or offer any recovery plan. they simply denied there is no bug or mosquito in the room which is obviously a lie. besides, they promised they will send person to the house for cooking the breakfest, but they failed again. I was astonished at their indifference of guest experience.

This place is a bargain and the location is exceptional. Great view of a waterfall, one of the prettiest on the island. Close to Hilo but completely isolated. The owners are very nice but give you space and privacy. A computer and TV are available to guests in the lounge.

The Bulls might be willing to listen to offers for 27-year-old All-Star forward Luol Deng, but he's been told there's "no chance" of a deal to the Golden State Warriors. Multiple reports on Sunday linked the Bulls and Warriors in a deal that suggested Chicago targeted the Warriors with a goal of landing the seventh overall pick in Thursday's draft. Yahoo Sports reported that Deng has been assured privately that deal won't happen. That doesn't mean Deng won't be involved in another deal. However, he's been rumored to be part of many trade packages in recent years, and none materialized. The Warriors are over the salary cap for next season and couldn't take back more salary than they're trading, which makes the deal a non-starter given ownership's unwillingness to toe the line of the luxury tax. Deng's value to the Bulls might be greater than it is to other teams. While not an explosive scorer, he's versatile on both ends of the court. His $13.33 million salary for next season...

Knowledge Shared: Joe Rogan & Graham Hancock Discuss The World
If you haven't listened to the Joe Rogan podcast before, now's the time to start. I admit, I tried years ago and didn't care for it, but at the suggestion by a friend, I checked it out again and have been hooked for quite a while now. This recent episode with Rogan talking to Graham Hancock is pretty exceptional, in my opinion. Lot's of topics, from government and politics to human consciousness, ancient civilizations to psychedelics…this is a mighty beefy serving for that brain of yours. Check it, then spread the word.

Tucker High robotics team wins regional competition
After a two-day robotic basketball tournament with 99 qualification rounds that tested its engineering, teamwork and alliance-building skills, "Sparky" team 384 from Tucker High School was seeded sixth and chose the teams from Martinsville, VA and Raleigh, N.C. as alliance partners in the final matches. Sparky's alliance emerged Saturday as top winners in the 2012 FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Virginia Regional. Tucker High School's FRC team qualified to compete at the FIRST WORLD Championship in St. Louis, April 25-28.
"It was a great day for Tucker High School Robotics," said Assistant Coach Carol Edelman.
The contest brought together 59 teams from Virginia, the Carolinas, Connecticut and Washington, DC to face off at Virginia Commonwealth University's Stuart C. Siegel Center. In addition to leading the winning alliance, Tucker's team was named winner of the Engineering Inspiration Award, celebrating outstanding success in advancing respect and appreciation for engineering and engineers, both within their school as well as their community.
Short Pump Rotary volunteers help with rebuild, repair
On June 13, the Short Pump Rotary Club partnered with Schnabel Engineering for a day of volunteer work with Rebuilding Together Richmond. Team members (among them [from left] Chris Rufe, Melissa Abraham, Rick Naschold, and Micky Ogburn) completed a variety of repairs and home improvements ranging from painting and landscaping to cabinet installation and fence building.
"It was a privilege to be involved in this project," said club president Melissa Abraham. "The homeowner kept thanking the volunteers, but I think all of us would agree we are the ones who actually benefited. It was an opportunity to help a community member, fellowship with great people and improve our handyman skills." > Read more.

It's a complicated movie. So here's the gist, in as simply-put terms can be. > Read more.

41 year old man | Pasadena, CA, USA | Seeking women 30-40 within 50 miles of San Bernardino, CA
Come with me if you want to live"- Arnold Schwarzenegger
My life is my passion. I understand, profoundly, that I only have 100 years to experience all the splendors that life has to offer. Yes, I plan on living to be 100 years old. It's been amazing thus far. Why wouldn't I want to live that long? I've seen breath taking sights many times over. I traveled around much of this world and met really cool people from all walks of life. I've been blessed with an amazing family and group of friends. I've known the amazing feeling of helping someone in need. I've laughed so hard I thought I would pass out. I could go on and on. What can I say? Life is great! Though, I would also say that that I'd feel like I missed out on the greatest part of the whole experience if I didn't find the right girl to share it with. I know that as great as it's been, it can be a even better with someone by your side enjoying it all with you. A little about me: All my life I've worked hard to be well rounded. I've always hated the idea of being one dimensional or limited in any way. So I am constantly trying to learn, grow and improve. Most people initially think of me as some fitness or health nut or jock, but I consider myself be a deep thinker first and foremost. I have an analytic mind and love to understand how things work or why things are the way they are. I pay close attention to world events and politics because it is what shapes the world I live in. Perhaps above all else, I love to learn. I've been a student of many teachers from all over the world. Living and dead. Through reading, through listening and through observing. I think everybody has something to teach. Even if it's a lesson in what NOT to do. I feel there is so much wisdom out there to help us live a happy life. I think we just have to be OPEN to it , AWARE of it and WILLING to apply it to help better ourselves. What I'm yet to experience was by design. I made sure to put my energy into my youthful pursuits while I was youthful (makes sense right?). All the while never losing sight of who I was and the life yet to come. I've always been a big believer in investing/preparing for the future. The foundation for my future is solid and complete. I seriously feel like I have the best job in the world. It's one of the biggest blessings in my life. So whats next? More traveling and more learning. I LOVE travelling. I usually hit multiple countries for weeks at a time. I do try to spend one of those weeks volunteering (just one, I'm not a saint but I do try to do my small part for the world and it's people). Ideally, I would like to take a couple more of these trips with the girl of my dreams. Then scale them back a bit to pursue starting a family. And by that, I simply mean doing more travelling within the states and for less time, or whatever family life would allow. I'm ready to move on from the bars and clubs to the museums and theaters. I've seen too few musicals and plays, and not one opera. I guess I can say that my pursuits are more sophisticated now and I want to find the someone to achieve them with. Personality wise, I'm super laid back and easy going. I get along with pretty much everyone. I have a knack for sarcasm and enjoy good banter with people in my close circle. A rule of thumb; if you find me teasing you, it usually means I like you. I say sorry when I've wronged someone and am quick to forgive others. I don't judge and don't care for people that do. I'm hoping to meet someone who is ready for something solid and ready to move on to the really great part of life. I think we all seek someone with similar values and interests. So here's my list of what is important to me: family, friends, an open mind, intelligence, compassion, gratitude, curiosity, integrity, memorable experiences, nature, health and fitness, uniqueness, seeing the world, an adventurous spirit, humor, humbleness, and efforts to make the world a better place.
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Performing arts , Playing cards , Playing sports , Political interests , Religion/Spiritual , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports
Basketball, Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Cycling, Martial arts, Other types of exercise, Running, Swimming, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I have Other
Very Liberal
The mountains, deserts and oceans. I've been to 17 countries. I loved every place I've been and would like to see more of the world.
TED talks, Documentaries. Real time, The Daily show & Colbert report. Traveling some where I've never been. A mountain bike ride. Laker and Clipper games. Hanging with friends and family. Enjoying Nature. Random acts of kindness. Volunteering abroad.
I like a wide variety of things. I love trying or learning anything new.
I read all the time about many different subjects. Learning is a passion of mine.

30 mile trip up a country road trail with my boss and his brother. Super hot, got burnt shoulders but it was awesome. Going to shoot for a ~40 miler this weekend.
Also, while I won't give it sole responsibility, I've gone from 224 pounds to 197 pounds since January 2nd this year! Fresh/healthy diet and lots of bike rides are definitely helping.
I love bikes!

Maybe you can relate to this but I hate the city of Fremont. Bay area red light camera haven.
Even if you're not at fault the damn bias judges only cancel out half of your $321 supposed debt to society.
My bus to school runs down Stevenson in Fremont, and since it's a bus, they don't stop at yellows really, and it probably gets flashed once a week, haha.

Template talk:Oldsmobile postwar timeline
Okay, having two years of the Cutlass Cruiser noted here really messes up the template. It needs to be fixed. Both the Vista Cruiser and Cutlass Cruiser were part of the Cutlass range. Do they need to be separated here? --Sable232 23:53, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
Starfire and Jetstar[edit]
Starfire and Jetstar should be added but there is currently no room. May I suggest a new full size row be created and a two row space consequently be inserted between 88 and 98? Then Custom Cruiser could be moved between them and room will still be available for Starfire and Jetfire in between. This makes sense from a price point of view as Custom Cruiser never cost more than 98 and it accomodates the missing series with the least amount of change.

98 Honda CB 750 F2 Seven-Fifty discussion forum:
RE: Richard
|RE: Richard

Ik had a CB 750 (98), and sold it because i bought a Suzuki Bandit 1200S, the fuel consomatiot was to high (10 liters foor 100 kms).
Now I want tot buy a CB 750 again, but I´m wondering if the 1999, 2000 en 2001-models have a better suspension (the 1998 had a weak rear-suspension en a weak fork)...
How many kms or miles has your CB ?

I have a listview with a list of network printer share names i.e. \\server\printer1.pcl5 If I try to convert the listview.selecteditems.tostring() it adds other data around the string so does not work, also the printer shares in c# need additional \\ to resolve the name.
2 questions really, how do I convert \\server\\printer1.pcl5 to \\\\server\\printer1.pcl5 when double clicking on the listview item
then how to I insert that into the addwindowsprinterconnection bit where SHAREDPRINTERNAMEGOESHERE? as it does not convert to a string properly from a listviewitem it stores it as "ListViewItem {\\server\printer1.pcl5}"
