Today in Cyprus, European Commissioner for Agriculture, Mariann Fischer Boel, will launch an EU-wide campaign to promote the relaunched School Milk Programme. Under the slogan "Milk - Drink it up", the information campaign aims to raise awareness of the benefits of milk consumption and the availability of EU funds to schools. During a day dedicated to balanced diet and good eating habits organised by pupils of Panagia Triherousa school in Limassol, Commissioner Fischer Boel, Commissioner for Health, Androulla Vassiliou, and Dr Michalis Polynikis, Minister for Agriculture of Cyprus, will kick off a series of entertaining and educative events. As part of this campaign, young people will be invited to take part in a photo competition on the theme "Milk power".
Mariann Fischer Boel, Commissioner for Agriculture and Rural Development,
announced that customs duties on cereals imports will be reintroduced as a
reaction to the price decrease on the cereals market. A draft Regulation was
put to the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural
Markets yesterday. It has now to be formally adopted by the Commission and
will enter into force on the third day following publication in the Official
Journal of the European Union. There are no export refunds on cereals
The Commission today launched a new database of protected quality names for agricultural products and foodstuffs. By using the 'Database Of Origin and Registration' (DOOR), researchers, producers, agricultural journalists and interested citizens now have easy access to full information on the registered names: PDOs, PGIs and TSGs. Commenting on the new database, Marianne Fischer Boel, Commissioner for Agriculture and Rural Development, said: "This important project illustrates the Commission's commitment to the agricultural quality schemes. DOOR will cut the time taken for examination and greatly facilitate the work of all those seeking data and information on our registered quality names."
DOOR comprises data on 832 registered names: PDOs (Protected Designations of Origin), and PGIs (Protected Geographical Indications), and TSGs (Traditional Specialities Guaranteed), as well as 323 applied-for names. When complete, DOOR will consist of three modules: an online application system, a workflow management system within the Commission, and the on-line database available today.

The European Commission will tomorrow launch the European Network for Rural Development at a high-profile conference on rural development in Cyprus. The Network will bring together policy-makers, administrators, academics and other key actors in the area of rural development from across the European Union, thus making it easier for them to share ideas, information and experience. This will help keep the European Union's rural development policy fit for the demands of the 21st century.
The European Commission today adopted a Green Paper to open the debate on how to help European farmers make the most of the quality of the food and drinks they produce. As globalisation spreads, pressure increases from low cost products from overseas and consumer demands evolve, Europe's most potent weapon is 'quality'. The Green Paper looks at the range of standards, quality and certification programmes and labelling schemes currently operating in the EU (including geographical indications, organic farming, and private and regional food quality certification schemes) and asks what could be done better to exploit the strengths of EU farming and better inform consumers about the products on offer. The paper asks stakeholders to give their views on how effective these measures are in delivering guarantees and communicating the qualities of the products, and to suggest improvements. The consultation period will run until the end of 2008. A Communication will be prepared next year based on the results, which could lead to legislative proposals at a later stage.
Certain Member States face levies totalling just over EUR 340 million for
exceeding their milk quotas during the 2007/2008 marketing year, according
to a provisional calculation by the European Commission, based on Member
States' annual declarations. Last year the total levy amounted to EUR 221
million. Seven Member States (Austria, Cyprus, Ireland, Italy, Germany,
Luxembourg, and Netherlands) exceeded their delivery quotas. Altogether
these account for an overrun of 1,217,000 tonnes, resulting in a levy of EUR
338.7 million. Some 47% of the total is due to excess deliveries in Italy
and 30% of the levy is due from Germany. Italy exceeded its delivery quota
by 5.7%, Cyprus exceeded by 3.9% and Austria by 3.2%. As for direct sales to
consumers, Cyprus, Luxembourg and the Netherlands reported overruns,
totalling 4,673 tonnes resulting in a levy for direct sales of EUR 1.3
million, of which 92% is due from the Netherlands.
Last Friday, the European Commission discussed how to update the existing measures to respond to the melamine contaminated milk from China with the Member States. The set of reinforced measures discussed and agreed by Member States, replace the interim measures provisionally adopted by the Commission on 26 September last (Decision 2008/757/EC). The new measures update and supplement the measures adopted two weeks ago, which consisted of a ban on imports of products intended for the particular nutritional uses of infants or young children and of systematic checks on other composite products containing milk prior to import into the Community. Member States may also perform random checks on other products which, because of their high protein content, could have been subject to adulteration practices similar to those applied to the milk products, although there is at present no evidence that this has been the case. Whilst controls were, pursuant to Decision 2008/757/EC, limited to products containing at least 15% of milk products, Member States have been reporting significant difficulties in establishing the exact milk product content of a number of composite products targeted by the interim measures. The new measures streamline and simplify control tasks imposed on Member States by the interim measures adopted on 26 September. On the one hand such controls have to be carried out on a limited number of control points specifically designated for that purpose by the Member States. On the other hand, Member States will not have to establish the exact amount of milk product content on imported products in order to decide whether analytical tests are required, as the new measures will require systematic checks on all milk containing products irrespective of the exact amount of such content. The measures shall be regularly reassessed in the light of the results of the controls carried out by the Member States.

The European Commission adopted today a decision confirming the risk
areas set up by the German authorities in relation to an outbreak of highly
pathogenic avian influenza on a poultry farm in the commune of Markersdorf,
in Saxony, close to the Polish border. The German authorities informed the
Commission yesterday about a suspected outbreak of highly pathogenic avian
flu. Germany's national laboratory confirmed today that the outbreak
concerns the highly pathogenic H5N1 strain of avian influenza. The German
authorities applied immediately the necessary control measures laid down in
EU legislation and set up risk areas around the outbreak. The situation will
be reviewed at the next Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal
Health (SCoFCAH) on 15 October. Last night, the German authorities culled
all poultry on the farm, i.e. 800 geese, 550 ducks, 60 chicken and 24
turkeys. The measures laid down in the Avian Influenza Directive 2005/94/EC
and the additional measures for the H5N1 virus have been applied. They
entail the establishment of a protection zone of 3 km radius and a
surveillance zone of 10 km around the infected holding. The area covered by
the protection zone and the surveillance zone is classified as a high risk
area (area A), which is surrounded by a low risk area (area B) acting as a
buffer zone to the disease-free parts of the country. Strict movement
controls are in place. Poultry must be kept indoors, gatherings of poultry
and other birds are banned, and on-farm bio security measures are
strengthened. Today's Commission decision confirms the areas A and B set up
in Germany. This is the first outbreak of the highly avian influenza H5N1 in
a poultry holding in the EU in 2008. The last outbreak in a poultry farm
caused by this virus was confirmed on 25 December 2007 in Germany in the
land of Brandenburg. In wild birds the last case was detected at the end of
February 2008 in the UK.
Today's launch of the "Financial Transparency system" website and search engine will allow, for the first time ever, free access to details of who receives EU funds managed directly by the Commission and its executive agencies. Based on accounting data, it provides a consolidated view of the previous financial year and contains approximately 28,000 entries on Commission-run programmes in policy areas like research, education and culture, energy and transport and certain aspects of aid to third countries. This new search engine will allow users to analyse and compare information on beneficiaries and policy areas more easily. It is one of the building blocks in the Commission's wider European Transparency Initiative (ETI).
In a parallel development, all Member States should put in place by 30 September 2008 a website with information on payments from the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) made between 1 January and 15 October 2007. Each website shall for all beneficiaries provide details such as the name of the beneficiary, the municipality of residence and the total amount of public funding received (Community and national). The Commission has set up a web-portal which provides access to the national websites. By 30 April 2009, Member States must publish details of the recipients of all other agricultural payments.

The Commission will transmit to the Council a proposal to authorise a
genetically modified (GM) soybean after Member States did not endorse it
today during a meeting of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and
Animal Health (SCoFCAH). The Commission presented today to SCoFCAH the
proposal for the authorisation of GM soybean MON89788, also known as
"RoundupReady2" soybean, for import and processing and food and feed uses.
The authorisation of this GM soybean is important as it will help preventing
shortages in supply of the EU livestock industry with soybean imports from
third countries. Member States returned no definitive opinion, either for or
against the proposal, during the SCoFCAH meeting. The Commission tabled the
proposal following an application submitted by the American food
biotechnology company Monsanto and a favourable scientific assessment from
the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), which addressed all safety
concerns. EFSA concluded that there is no risk to human or animal health or
to the environment. As a result of today's inconclusive vote, the Commission
will now transmit the dossier to the Council for a decision. If the Council
does not reach a position within three months, the proposal will be sent
back to the Commission for final adoption.

Fight Right!
Rhona Berens, PhD, CPCC
Saturday, February 2, 2013 from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM (EST)
Conflict Resolution Tools to Improve Relationships & Parenting
While some of us prefer to avoid conflict, not only is it an undeniable part of being human, it's a key ingredient in meaningful relationships. In fact, relationship satisfaction is tied to how well we resolve, and limit the negative impact, of conflicts.
So if we're keen on connecting with our spouses and kids, a great goal around conflict is less to stop fighting, and more to learn techniques to "fight right," i.e., to find healthy ways to disagree that enhance connection instead of damage relationships. Doing so contributes to our coparenting success and relationship fulfillment.
Fighting right is especially crucial for parents, since our kids learn how to "do" conflict by watching us. The more skilled we are in navigating conflict, the better they'll learn to disagree constructively and accept differences respectfully.
Fight Right is a fun and engaging two-hour workshop led by Parent Advocate, Rhona Berens, PhD, CPCC. The topics we'll cover include: Recognizing the difference between destructive and constructive conflict, honing our conflict resolution skills and learning tools to "fight right" and compromise without resentment. In Fight Right, Rhona will help parents disagree in ways that serve our relationships and enhance parenting--and coparenting--success.
For more information, contact Blossom OC at email@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Archived Story
Ice arena sales tax begins this fallPublished 10:55am Thursday, July 21, 2011 Updated 10:55am Thursday, July 21, 2011
The city of Fergus Falls has been playing the waiting game for months with its half-cent local option sales tax for the ice arena, but now that it has been passed by the state Legislature, the time has come to take the next step.
Once the tax is enacted, explained Finance Director Bill Sonmor, the entire process will be handled by the state Department of Revenue. The tax will likely begin in the last quarter of the year.
"We have to give the Department of Revenue at least a three-month notice that it's been enacted so that the (department) can get that in place, and then they will actually contact all of those (local) businesses and give them instructions on it," he said. "The (department) will send their collections to us on a monthly basis."
Sonmor added that no new items, like food or clothing, will be hit with the tax.
"Whatever is taxable now is taxable under the local option sales tax," he said, adding that motor vehicles will not be taxed under the plan.
The sales tax is expected to last for about four and a half years. If the city raises enough money to pay off its ice arena bonds earlier, then the tax will end earlier.
Sonmor emphasized that the tax is legally required to end, or "sunset," after the ice arena funds have been raised. Once the funds have been raised, the Department of Revenue will notify businesses to stop enforcing it.
Though some council members have expressed interest in using a local option sales tax to pay for other city building projects, like a new police station or a library expansion, Sonmor said the current tax cannot legally be extended to fund anything besides the ice arena.
"It has to sunset and has to be stopped for a minimum of one year," he said, "so it has to go away for at least a year before you go back to the public and say, 'Do you want to pay for another project?'"
Voters would then have to approve the tax all over again, as they did in the 2010 elections.
Though the city has pledged $4 million to the project, the tax allows the city to raise up to $6.6 million for the project. Sonmor said that number allows for interest rates on the bonds and also provides the city with a little bit of leeway in case some of the private donors don't come through with their donations. The city has not yet issued bonds for the projects.
The city will keep a close eye on the effectiveness of the sales tax. If it works well, a similar tax may be examined in the future for other projects.
"I think certainly the potential is there," Sonmor said, deferring to the council's judgment.
The tax will charge a half cent on the dollar for a purchase, in addition to the current sales tax. For example, if an item costs $50, the arena tax would add an extra 25 cents to the price.

'Showgirls' Hits the Strip on Blu-ray on June 15th
We have all the details on this 15th Anniversary Edition of the film.
Nomi Malone (Elizabeth Berkley) is a fiercely independent young woman who comes to Las Vegas running from a troubled past. Looking for a break on the Las Vegas Strip, she lands a job as an erotic dancer at the Cheetah Club. But, to make ends meet, she also works as a lap dancer in the club's back room. Possessed of a raw and riveting dancing talent, Nomi is soon introduced to the vastly different world of the big Las Vegas shows--and the powerful men and women who run them. Zack (Kyle Maclachlan), the handsome and ambitious entertainment director at the Stardust, could push Nomi into the spotlight. Cristal (Gina Gershon), the glamorous star of the stage show "Goddess," is inexorably drawn to Nomi's beauty and spirit and may make her...or break her. As the complex bonds of passion, jealousy and love form between them, Nomi is pulled deeper into the world she so desperately desires.

Five Terrifying Superheroes of the Golden Age
Subscribe to our newsletter
The Golden Age of Comics took place during the thirties and forties. During this period, comics saw their first major boom, and the popularity of superheroes led to the creation of many modern mainstays now considered iconic to the medium. The Golden Age also gave us some of the most bizarre and terrifying characters to ever see ink.
Taking the unique Bruce Wayne approach to super heroism, Bart Hill witnesses his parents murder, rendering him mute. Not satisfied with both crippling and orphaning a child, the criminal in question goes the extra mile by branding him, leaving a boomerang shaped mark on his chest. Naturally, Hill honors the memory of his parents by obsessing over boomerangs and eventually becoming the first (only?) master boomerang marksman.
With his new and seemingly impractical power, Hill becomes a the costumed hero Daredevil, bringing criminals to justice by throwing curved sticks and praying they come back. Daredevil ran for sixty-nine issues, remaining popular inpart due to the book's gritty story telling. The character also set a precedent for characters named Daredevil being unable to properly dress themselves.
Ghost Rider
Rex Fury, federal Marshall and owner of a kick-ass name, takes on the persona of Ghost Rider, a phantom horseman, Of course, he wasn't really a phantom; he wore a costume that was white on one side and black on the other, giving him the ability to disappear and reappear at will, causing evil to soil its pants every time.
Ghost Rider is akin to a super natural Batman. Fury did everything he could to appear to be a ghost, using realistic illusions to maintain his mystique and to terrify criminals. His enemies followed the supernatural motif, ranging from your typical wolfmen to a Frankenstein impersonator (why, when choosing a gothic literary figure to impersonate, anyone would elect to be a hodgepodge collection of corpses, is beyond me).
Lady Satan
While on an ocean liner in the Atlantic, the would-be Lady Satan (she apparently had no real name) nearly loses her life in a Nazi bombing. The liner is sunk, presumably killing hundreds. Among the dead are her fiancee (also not worth having a name, may he rest in peace). Eventually our hero found her way to German-occupied France, where she vowed to fight the Nazi's while swearing fealty to the Prince of Darkness. I'm really not sure how one entails the other, but hey, when you're beloved is slain by Nazi explosions, you need to change up your life a bit.
In her original run, Lady Satan was powerless. Armed only with a chlorine gun, she hid her non-identity with a red evening gown and domino mask. Not only is this a questionable costume, but it proposes a very important question: how is it that Nazi's could find entirely families hiding in basements, attics and the very earth itself, but a woman dressed in bright red wondering the streets of Paris with a pool-cleaning gun manages to evade capture so many times she makes a career out of it?
While the character of Lady Satan may not standout in the overpopulated market of the Golden Age, she was among the first heroes to stop Hitler's tyranny before the United States got involved in World War II. Also, she hung out with Wonder Woman once or twice, so she's famous by proxy.

Nikon SB 80DX as a manual wireless slave ?
Started Apr 6, 2012 | Discussions thread
Hi Tom,
never looked at AA mode, just not curious enough.
Will see what it is though.
And about the price in France on our Craigslist, I was a little too optimistic.
Saw them sometime ago for 50 Euros which is 65 Dollars.
They now go from 65 to 95 Dollars.
I was wrong with my first quote, mixed up Euro and Dollar.
No future for me on Forex.
Thanks for the reply and happy shooting,
Ciao, Han.

Gorgeous ocean views, perfect gardens in a forest setting, and Luna Mar's superb permanent staff of 5 complement the brilliant architecture to create a truly exceptional experience in the heart of the Mexican Riviera. In an exclusive gated community with 20 lots and private beach, Los Ranchos is part of the larger Punta Mita Resort development (which is a 3 minute ride away), giving guests access to 2 Jack Nicklaus golf courses, tennis club, children's play areas, pool and activities, fine dining, beach clubs, water sports, and much more. But it is just as likely you will never want to leave the Villa!
At the Villa itself is a spectacular pool area with padded lounge chairs, where you can watch the ocean roll in ... or walk 40 steps across the Villa's lawn to the private beach. If you wish, arrangements could be made with local excursion and sporting businesses to provide discounted professional services (with no mark-up and at the same prices owners pay) for fishing excursions or island hopping (including spectacular Marietas Islands National Park that is minutes away and part of the spectacular view from the house), boat rides to local villages accessible only by water, surfing or water board lessons, SCUBA or snorkeling, or a host of other activities pre-packaged or tailored by you. These are private tours that pick you up and drop you off on the Villa's private beach, researched and initiated by the owners for their own use, and offered to guests at the same rate as part of the Villa experience.
The Villa also has its own beach toys, including a 2-person ocean kayak, surf board, paddle board, and boogie boards.
The Luna Mar staff is the heart of the Villa; 4 of the 5 have been there since the Villa was designed and built in 2009. A fifth was hired when ownership changed in 2014. Headed by Joel, a seasoned professional trained in 5-star hospitality and luxury resorts, the entire staff has had extensive training and experience in hospitality services. They take tremendous pride and exceptional care in attending to your every need to make your experience at Luna Mar one you will always treasure. Chef Berta will treat you morning, noon, and evening with dining experiences that wow, with dishes from her Mexican cuisine menu or your tailored requests. Her creations are worth the trip! Lupe is a man of many talents, always ahead of your wants by one step or two. His ever-changing original dinner table artwork pieces create permanent memories that make up for their all-too-short lives. They are often set to the theme of Joel's dinner venue for that evening, which you can direct or leave to Joel for a surprise that always delights. Reina attends to the house with loving care and is a master at individualized pillow treats that seem to be the first topic of conversation at the breakfast table each morning. Hugo keeps the facilities running smoothly, with professional efficiency and highest reliability, and a contagious personality. However, it is misleading to label the staff individually. They work as a team, filling in where needed, with one goal in mind: creating an exceptional and very permanent experience for all our guests.
The Villa itself is beautifully appointed with fountains, garden pathways, perfect niches, spectacular courtyards, patios and a warm common area. The smallest of the bedroom suites is over 1,000 s/f, and all come with indoor and outdoor showers. All bedrooms have outdoor beds and/or hammocks for daytime naps or nighttime sleeping to the sound of the waves. The master bedroom complex is nearly 2,000 s/f indoors, and 1,000 s/f outdoors, with one huge veranda overlooking the ocean and another above the tranquil inner courtyard. Renowned architect Jose Vigil (www.jvas.net) does a masterful job of creating and then bringing together all these extraordinary spaces in a way that that manages to make a decadent Villa complex into a very warm home.
The staff enjoys providing different dining experiences each evening in the many elegant spaces of the Villa. One night a torch-lit dinner on the beach, the next a rooftop star-gazing dinner, then maybe on the new ocean viewing patio/fireplace area, still another in the courtyard by the fountain, and of course, dinner poolside. The table detail is amazing for each dinner. Bring your camera!

Golfers and Tennis Players: Punta Mita Resort (available to our guests) has two 18-hole Jack Nicklaus signature golf courses, and there are numerous other golf courses in the area. The resort also has a tennis pro and multiple courts available to our guests.
Shoppers: Downtown Puerto Vallarta has great shopping, but it is best to tie it to a day trip, as it is about 40 minutes into town. However, that works because there are many other interesting things for non-shoppers, too. There is a boardwalk with restaurants, bars, shops and galleries. While there are much closer luxury shops at the resort hotels (St. Regis and Four Seasons) and interesting shopping in Punta Mita Village, both 5 minutes away, we enjoy going out a bit further to local villages nearby. Sayulita, for example, is 15 minutes away and is a quaint little town chock full of art galleries, local craft shops, clothes shopping and more. It also has a public beach area great for surfing and paddle boarding with good restaurants on and off the beach (try Don Pedro, which has Salsa night on Mondays).
Surfers: Surfers havens are found throughout Punta Mita. Go to 'http://www.surf-forecast.com/breaks/Punta-De-Mita' for details.
SCUBA divers: Take a group excursion from Punta Mita, or better yet, allow the staff to arrange a private pick-up on the beach at the Villa. Owner is a certified diver and enjoys diving near the Marietas Islands National Park, a 10-minute boat ride from the Villa beach.
Snorklers: There is a reef 60 yards out from the Villa beach that has great snorkeling. Diving for oysters or lobsters is fun there (the owner does it with local divers, who the staff could arrange to guide you). Also, there are many other snorkeling opportunities throughout Banderas Bay, including the Marietas Islands noted above.
Day Trips:
1. Sayulita Village (noted above).
2. Take a panga (or water taxi) from the Villa private beach to the water-access-only village of Quimixto to find a serene beach surrounded by boulders, perfect for snorkelers, as well as Yelapa, the largest remote beach..
3. Old Town Puerto Vallarta. Shopping (noted above), tourist strolling, restaurants of all calibers, galleries, museums, water sports, etc. You can easily put together a full day trip to PV that can satisfy the preferences of all ages and genders!
On the water: Combine a trip to Marietas Islands with a SCUBA or snorkeling activity, or with a fishing trip.
Year Purchased: 2014
About the owner: We visited the property for the first time in April of 2014. We immediately fell in love with the Villa, the staff, and the setting. After researching other Villas in Los Ranchos, and in the surrounding area, we determined that Luna Mar was where we needed to be. We closed on the property at the end of July, looking forward to years of memories with family and friends. After considerable research and advice from other owners in the area, it became clear that an occupied house is better than allowing it to be empty in our absence -- for the staff and for the facilities. Given our own experience there, we decided to continue offering the property for lifetime experiences.
Why the Owner Chose Ranchos Estates:
The staff. The architecture. The setting. We have been fortunate to travel the world, and have never found a place as tranquil and private as this while still having such spectacular natural resources.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa:
It is an exceptionally private Villa, with ready access to innumerable sporting and entertainment activities. You have complete control on the degree of privacy or access. Either is easy to accomplish, depending on your mood or intention on any given day.

Francesco Liggieri
Francesco Liggieri
Venice, Italy
About Francesco Liggieri
Francesco Liggieri is a traditional, almost old-time, artist, but he feels comfortable with the fast and always changing contemporary time he lives in an he uses as nourishment for his work. In fact, his pictorial style seems to have been grown and got stronger together with him during his slow transition from a child to an adult, without any impatient acceleration, but with a natural constancy which is very rare to find in a young artist today. This natural approach and also this kind of stylistic evolution are supported by Francesco's inborn predisposition to consider art as a way to express himself, through the use of painting and colours, and also to get in touch with the world he lives in, since he was a child. From the moment he used his first piece of chalk to draw a white line on a blue scrap of fabric, Francesco Liggeri's been keeping on testing different types of media and supports, such as tempera, oil colours, drawing pencils, wood, wall, paper, canvas, and he has accomplished his artistic style also thanks to his studies at the School of Fine Arts in Venice. The debt to Pop and Street art is evident and it's the base of Francesco Liggieri's activity as an artist, however without hindering his genuine and personal technique founded on the ability to let the daily life and the exceptionality live together on the canvas. In fact, the reality taken from the newspapers, the movies and the internet is the main character of Francesco Liggieri's work, but he is able to transpose it on his canvas as a good opportunity to create a connection, playful and reflexive at the same time, to the audience. Choosing characters who live temporary states, such as the different ages, from the childhood on, and who are defined by a sort of unusual uniqueness, Francesco Liggieri makes familiarity and extraordinariness join up, without any unbalanced result. Anyone can identify himself with the child who holds a gun in Where we go now? Where we go now!?, or with the other child who holds a lollipop in My dream come!... Maybe Tomorrow, or with the young character in the middle of *****, or at least with the group of Campi di pop corn (where is Anna Frank?), but only that child is a victim of a terrible war, only that child will become pope, only that little girl has been Anna Frank. The game Francesco Liggieri plays towards himself and also towards the world he shares with his audience is linked to a deep urgency of "taking a picture" of reality so it as and then of transforming it in an artwork using the media he prefers. Acting as a smart and curious child, Francesco Liggieri is capable of making his spectators think over the complex and often thorny subjects of his works (for instance, the controversial conflicts exemplified by the Soldati series, the violence against children, which is visible in the eyes of the main character of Where we go now? Where we go now!?, the compulsive isolation of the contemporary, globalized man identified with the young character of *****, the daily politics, exemplified by Good Morning, Mister President), without any artificial complexity, but just using a consistent simplicity that makes the peaceful coexistence of daily life and uniqueness possible. Every single artwork realized by Francesco Liggieri is readable. His paintings and his installations are both created using a "flat" style, but they're never simplistic or banal, neither his way of studying the human being as the core of his own poetics. From the beginning to these days, lines and colours have been becoming the tools to outline human characters as more and more essential but full of contents and also immediately perceived by the spectator without any additional help or interference from the artist. The artwork speaks for itself. The artist just suggests a point of view, clear and well-defined, but it's a spectator's prerogative to deepen the reflection proposed. That's the reason why the installations need the audience's interaction. The spectator, helped by the immediacy of the artwork, made possible by the use of simple devices as the only dominant of the red colour in Amen, or by the wise disposition of the portraits realized for For Tomorrow that leads the eyes of the audience, is invited, not forced, to get in touch with the artwork, also finding new meanings for that. The artist hopes for a free approach to his works by the spectators so as to let them identify with the uniqueness hidden under the surface of the daily life. In the end, the subject of Francesco Liggieri's work is the exception, without any extraordinary connotation. Arianna Testino ( i.c. )
During his academic education he goes through the images of Picasso and Richter, combining the social involvement and the attention to the human figure with street sensitivity and a sort of post-pop freedom inspired by Haring, Salle and, recently, Bansky. He graduated at the Academy of Fine Arts of Venice in 2006 with full marks. In the same year he founded Collettivo Rapido, a flexible collective which gets together artists in temporary collaborations and expositions. Since 2005 he participates steadily to exposition and artistic projects as solo artist.
Recently he is interested in experiments combining painting and installation.

EuroBasket preview: Spain and then everybody else
Actual competitive basketball being played in an actual arena with actual NBA players! No, this isn't another Drew League versus Goodman League showdown -- it's better. It's Eurobasket 2011 and if you're completely starved for some quality hoops, then welcome your all-you-can-eat buffet of basketball.
You're probably sick of people trying to convince you how quality the European game has become, and while no, it's not the NBA, it is about as good of basketball as you're going to get. And with the labor negotiations going about as well as Charles Barkley in a marathon, this might be one of your last chances to get competitive basketball.
The EuroBasket tournament features 24 countries all with the opportunity to put away an automatic bid to the 2012 Olympics in London. The top two finishers get an automatic bid while four bids to the Pre-Olympic qualifying tournament (for third through sixth) are at stake as well. But it's not only about the Olympic bids. It's about taking home a title for your country against the top competition in Europe. It's a big deal.
It starts up Aug. 31 and runs through Sept. 18. It's going to be a frantic few weeks of hoops with big names like Pau Gasol, Dirk Nowitzki, Luol Deng and Tony Parker. Let's take a look at the field.
Group A: Britain, Lithuania, Poland, Spain, Turkey, Portugal
Group B: France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Serbia
Group C: Bosnia, Croatia, Greece, Macedonia, Montenegro, Finland
Group D: Belgium, Bulgaria, Georgia, Russia, Slovenia, Ukraine
(A heads up: Every game of EuroBasket can be watched free on ESPN3.com.)
Spain -- Pau Gasol. Serge Ibaka. Ricky Rubio. Jose Calderon. Rudy Fernandez. Marc Gasol. If you're looking for your NBA fix, the Spaniards are your team to watch. They're going to play the most fluid, flashy game of anything and with players like Ibaka, Gasol and Rubio, will blend athleticism and skill together nicely.
It's really Spain's tournament to lose. There's just so much talent on the team, not even including the big names. Sergio Llull, recent first round draft pick Nikola Mirotic and the irresistible Juan Carlos Navarro make Spain the can't-miss team and clear-cut favorite.
NBA players: Pau Gasol (Lakers), Serge Ibaka (Thunder), Ricky Rubio (Timberwolves), Jose Calderon (Raptors), Rudy Fernandez (Mavericks), Marc Gasol (Grizzlies)
Lithuania -- The Lithuanians are sort of a borderline favorite, but they are playing the tournament in their home country, so that's an advantage. Plus, there's talent scattered throughout the team with players like lottery pick Jonas Valanciunas, Donatas Motiejunas and Sarunas Jasikevicius.
NBA players: Jonas Valanciunas (Raptors), Donatas Motiejunas (Timberwolves)
France -- Quietly, the French have assembled a pretty stellar team. Most aren't listing them as a top tier favorite, but it's hard to ignore the talent. A core of Nicolas Batum, Joakim Noah and Tony Parker make them a squad strong enough to consider. Add in Rodrigue Beaubois (if he's healthy), Kevin Seraphin, Mickael Pietrus and Kevin Seraphin and that's a quality rotation of players.
They don't have the same level of talent as Spain, but if Batum can emerge as a go-to scorer to supplement Parker, the French team could make noise in the knockout rounds.
NBA players: Tony Parker (Spurs), Nicolas Batum (Trail Blazers), Mickael Pietrus (Suns), Joakim Noah (Bulls), Rodrigue Beaubois (Mavericks), Kevin Seraphin (Wizards), Ronny Turiaf, injured though (Knicks), Ian Mahinmi (Mavericks), Boris Diaw (Bobcats)
Serbia -- One of Europe's most consistent powers, Serbia features a smooth balance of interior scorers and outside shooters. Nenad Krstic is the anchor but don't underestimate players like Milos Teodosic and Milenko Tepic. Serbia doesn't have anything all that flashy, but it's a team that's stayed together for a while and knows how to play extremely well with each other.
NBA players: None
Germany -- They have Dirk. That's enough to at least warrant consideration. Now after that it doesn't look extremely strong, but it's Dirk and if we learned anything, the dude can play in big moments. He can carry a team that otherwise looks like a batch of just mid-level players to a higher place and win with them. So I'm not doubting him one bit in this tournament.
Plus there's Chris Kaman and Thunder property Tibor Pleiss there with him, which gives Germany a pretty formidable front court.
NBA players: Dirk Nowitzki (Mavericks), Chris Kaman (Clippers)
Russia -- One thing that constantly intrigues me with the Russian team is coach David Blatt. He's an American coach that played for Pete Carril at Princeton and has been extremely successful overseas with major clubs. The team has some talent, but nothing to get too excited about. It would take a breakout tournament from Timofey Mozgov or swingman Victor Khryapa a huge showing from Andrei Kirilenko for them to truly contend, but they could be medal contenders.
NBA players: Timofey Mozgov (Nuggets), Andrei Kirilenko (Jazz)
Slovenia -- Slovenia's the Atlanta Hawks of Europe. Always solid, never good enough to win. They have some quality players, but lack enough quality size to compete with Spain, Lithuania or France.
NBA players: Goran Dragic (Rockets)
Turkey -- Last year's World Championship runners-up to the United States, Turkey has most of that team back. It's a good group and one that could certainly get hot and make a run again, but the World Championship run came largely because of a huge bump from a home court advantage. Not happening again in Lithuania.
NBA players: Semih Erden (Celtics), Omer Asik (Bulls), Ersan Ilyasova (Bucks), Enes Kanter (Jazz), Hedo Turkoglu (Magic)
Greece -- When their fluid passing is leading to open 3s (which they make), the Greeks are a problem for people. But when they're missing, they're a team easy to run over. They're scrappy and will claw on each possession, but reality is, they just don't have enough talent to hang with the bigger clubs. They do have one of the funner players to watch in Dimitrios Diamantidis, so keep an eye on him.
NBA players: Kostas Koufos (Nuggets)
Croatia -- Much like Slovenia, Croatia is a squad that is always in the conversation, but lacks the firepower to truly contend. Hard to figure where the points will come from for them in big spots. They'll be good enough to likely win Group C, but after that, it'll be a tough road to advance.
NBA players: Bojan Bogdanovic (Nets)
Great Britain -- I'm intrigued by this British team despite it not having any depth whatsoever. Had Ben Gordon been cleared to play, the Brits would've had a dark horse caliber team. Instead, they'll have to fight to get out of group play. Luol Deng is good enough to carry them some with Joel Freeland and Ryan Richards potentially adding some scoring pop from inside.
Don't worry though: They've already qualified for the 2012 Olympics. Because, you know, they're hosting it.
NBA players: Luol Deng (Bulls)
Italy -- There's a little something to the Italian team. Danillo Gallinari, Marco Belinelli and Andrea Bargnani give them some scoring. Problem is, can they stop anyone? It's a decent team and one that can probably make the knockout round, but not much after that.
NBA players: Danillo Gallinari (Nuggets), Marco Belinelli (Hornets), Andrea Bargnani (Raptors)
Montenegro -- Not a powerful team but one with some consistent shooters and a couple decent interior players. Montenegro could very well be every bit as good as Slovenia or Croatia, but their roster doesn't strike you as anything special.
NBA players: Nikola Vucevic (76ers), Nikola Pekovic (Timberwolves)
NBA players: None
NBA players: Omri Casspi (Cavaliers) -- Casspi's unlikely though because of injury

PREDICTION: If Spain doesn't reach the final, it's a massive disappointment and a massive shock. It's really just a matter of who will challenge the loaded Spaniards. I see the final four teams being Spain, France, Lithuania and a dark horse in Germany. A lot of people aren't necessarily on the French bandwagon, but I see a team with a bunch of talent that could possibly put together a little run. The safe bet is to go with a Spain-Lithuania final (this of course assuming the teams match up correctly in the knockout round), but I'm looking at France to fall to Spain in the gold medal game but still earn that automatic bid to London in 2012.

Pretty good review, on the whole. I have no problem with Spain as the over-whelming favorite - looking at their roster, they shouldn't be challenged at all until possibly the gold-medal game and unless someone simply catches lightning in a bottle, I doubt they will be challenged much at all even then. They have too much talent, size, shootig and quickness for anyone else. Only France has a real chance of giving them a game and the size/talent disparity down low between the Gasol brothers versus Joaquin Noah should rule that out as well. Parker is good, but Spain can come in waves and with their balance, I don't see much chance for anyone else. Barring the afore-mentioned lightning in a bottle, of course.
Aside from agreeing that Spain and France as the main favorites, however, I do quibble at a few of Mr. Young's minor points. To wit:
I don't see Turkey as a serious contender. They had a very favorable draw and (as Mr. Royce mentioned) a huge home-court advantage in the World Championships and I simply don't see much on their roster that would indicate that they can repeat that performance. They have an OK inside game with Kanter, Erden, Ilyasova and Asik but their guards are suspect. And Hedo Turkoglu in particular has to play he way he did in the Orlando Magic's 2009 run to the NBA Finals and have an outstanding tournament for them to have any chance in my opinion. I think I'd put them more among the dark horses.
I also am not sold on Russia as a bona-fide contender. I am not overly familiar with Coach Blatt, but his pieces appear to me to be somewhat mismatched. And, like Turkoglu for Turkey, Andrei Krilenko has to play an outstanding tournament for Russia to make any serious moves. Movgov is big, but not a dominant center and there's no one else who really jumps out at me as a point-maker. If Kirilenko can find his scoring touch, Russia could be dangerous, but I would suggest that the odds are against it.
Aside from the above points, I think Mr. Royce did a pretty good job breaking down the tournament. Should be fun to watch.

I find it interesting that mostly the teams listed as having some chance are ones with more NBA players.
The European/International game is very different to the NBA so don't be surprised if a team with virtually no NBA representation makes a run!

Ex-Duke player Thomas says he'll talk with NCAA
Updated: October 1, 2012, 6:55 PM ETAssociated Press
WESTWEGO, La. -- Former Duke and current New Orleans Hornets player Lance Thomas said Monday he does not think he violated NCAA rules when he purchased nearly $100,000 in diamond jewelry during his college career.
Thomas also indicated a willingness to speak with the NCAA about the purchase, which spawned a lawsuit by a New York jeweler and an inquiry by Duke and the NCAA of whether Thomas violated rules pertaining to improper benefits for college athletes.

Documents show agency officials applied extra scrutiny to nonprofits that critiqued 'how the country is being run'
But six months later, the IRS applied a new political test to social welfare groups, the document says. On Jan. 15, 2012, the agency decided to look at "political action type organizations involved in limiting/expanding Government, educating on the Constitution and Bill of Rights, social economic reform movement," according to the appendix in the IG report.
The agency did not appear to adopt a more neutral test for 501(c)(4) groups until May 17, 2012, according to the timeline in the inspector general's report. At that point, the IRS again updated its criteria to focus on "organizations with indicators of significant amounts of political campaign intervention (raising questions as to exempt purpose and/or excess private benefit.)"
Campaign reform groups have been pressing the IRS for several years to conduct greater oversight of nonprofits formed in the wake of the Citizens United case, given that many have become heavily involved in elections.
"But this isn't the type of enforcement we want," said Paul Ryan, a senior counsel at the Campaign Legal Center. "We want nonpartisan, non-biased enforcement."
Loyola Law School professor Ellen Aprill, who specializes in tax law, said any group that has applied for tax-exempt status has "opened themselves up to scrutiny" by the IRS.
"It's part of their job to look for organizations that may be more likely to have too much campaign intervention," she said. "But it is important to try to make these criteria as politically neutral as possible."
Aprill said one of the problems is the agency's top officials have not provided clear enough guidelines on what constitutes too much political activity for a social welfare group because it's been "a hot potato," and that now with this new controversy, "it's going to make it even more difficult to do so."
