'Find your audience'
He who creates work, also seeks for an audience. But who is this audience and what are the related platforms? The platforms are significantly subject to change; newspapers and magazines are disappearing and budgets are at stake everywhere. Scarcity leads to creativity. Luckily there is an enormous amount of possibilities; seek and you shall find.
Along with shifting platforms also the audience changes. Who do you want to address with your work, for whom do you make it and with what cause? How do you find a foundation for you work and the people that want to support you in this? Photographers who have been working in the professional field for a longer while are set about looking for new ways of reaching an audience. But we are starting of with two fundamental questions: what is your audience or who would you like it to be? And how do you find one? This current theme will be in the spotlight of this years' edition of the Networkweek (2014).
We will start at 9:30 with a cup of coffee and registrations at the auditorium. At 10:00 the first speaker will start. Be on time, because we start at 10:00 sharp, coffee needs to be finished and registrations should be done!

Love the look headband and it's very warm; my only complaint is my forehead gets slightly itchy after extended wear, but I guess that's to be expected with a wool/angora blend. Overall, stylish and functional buy.

The Growth and Transformation Plan (GTP) was established by the Government of Ethiopia as a strategic framework for the agricultural sector from 2011 to 2015. The GTP aims to:
- Enhance productivity and production of smallholder farmers and pastoralists
- Strengthen marketing systems
- Improve participation and engagement of the private sector
- Expand the amount of land under irrigation
- Reduce the number of chronically food insecure households
The overall target is at least 8.1% annual agricultural growth over the five-year period. Sub-sectoral targets include tripling the number of farmers receiving relevant extension services, reducing the number of safety net beneficiaries from 7.8 to 1.8 million households, and more than doubling the production of key crops from 18.1 million metric tonnes to 39.5 million metric tonnes. Specific targets are aligned with and in support of the targets contained in the CAADP Compact and other Ministry of Agriculture-led initiatives.
The Agricultural Transformation Agency's programs are designed to help all partners meet these targets. The Agency will measure its contribution to this effort through the metrics established in the GTP as well as in other national strategies such the as CAADP Compact and the corresponding Policy and Investment Framework (PIF).
The Agency's work to support the GTP will be organized under the AGP's four strategic objectives that together will contribute to Ethiopia's goal of achieving middle income status by 2025:
- Achieve a sustainable increase in agricultural productivity and production
- Accelerate agriculture commercialization and agro-industrial development
- Reduce degradation and improve productivity of natural resources
- Achieve universal food security and protect vulnerable households from natural disasters

STEUBENVILLE, Ohio — A Bloomingdale, Ohio, landowner lost the right to stop surveyors for Enterprise Liquids Pipeline from entering her farm.
Nancy Hyde owns just over 22 acres in Bloomingdale, where her son, David, makes hay for his beef cattle herd.
Enterprise is creating a pipeline that will transport ethane from the Marcellus and Utica shale regions in Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia to the Gulf Coast.
According to Enterprise, the line will be approximately 1,230 miles long and will have an initial capacity of 125,000 barrels per day.
The pipeline would deliver ethane to Enterprise's natural gas liquids storage complex at Mont Belvieu, Texas. Through connections at Mont Belvieu, ethane production would then have access to every ethylene plant in the U.S.
According to Enterprise, the pipeline would be expected to begin operating in early 2014.
The Hydes had been contacted by Enterprise Liquids Pipeline last October for a survey of another farm property they own. There is an existing Enterprise line there and David Hyde gave them permission to proceed.
But then, Hyde said he was contacted by the company in January for a survey of the property owned by his mother.
Hyde has the power to make land decisions for his mother, Nancy.
The property where the pipeline wanted to survey was a hayfield Hyde uses for his beef cattle. He said he didn't want it damaged and denied the company access.
Hyde said the company told him they needed to reroute the line and it was necessary to go through the hayfield for the new route. Researching his options, he found out the farm had been in an agricultural district since 1989.
However, that was not enough.
Ag districts protect farmers from nuisance lawsuits, defer development assessments and provide state review of eminent domain in certain cases.
Enterprise Liquids Pipeline filed an injunction asking that the company be allowed to survey the Hydes' land.
Jefferson County Common Pleas Court Judge Joseph J. Bruzzese Jr. granted Enterprise access for the land survey May 16.
According to Atty. Craig Woods from the Columbus law firm of Squire Sanders LLP, who is representing Enterprise Liquids Pipeline, Ohio law gives the right to pipelines to conduct land surveys and environmental impact studies on properties like the Hydes'.
Woods said the action brought against the Hydes was "simply an action to allow access to property for survey work" as the company attempts to determine what is the best pipeline route.
The judge told Hyde that any damaged incurred would be the responsibility of the pipeline company.
Both Woods and Hyde said that now the land survey is complete, negotiations could begin on a price for the pipeline easement. However, eminent domain would apply to this pipeline, if negotiations can't be completed.
Hyde said some of the battle could have been avoided if the company had explained why the pipeline reroute is needed. He said he has yet to receive an explanation why the pipeline goes along an existing easement on many other properties until it reaches their land.
OPSB. According to the Ohio Power Siting Board, an application has not been filed by Enterprise with the OPSB. The OPSB did receive a letter in March citing the company planned on submitting an application.
However, according to Matt Butler, media relations director for the OPSB, if a new bill makes it through the legislature, Enterprise will not be required to file an application.
Butler said that a bill has already been passed by the state Senate and may make it through the House before the end of May.
The legislation will exclude all natural gas liquids pipelines from needing approval by the OPSB.
Once it is passed by the house, all that will be needed is the governor's signature.
I appreciate the Farm and Dairy articles that bring these conflicts to light. I don't want to criticize our Republican dominated legislature, but it sounds like BIG BUSINESS is being given a free hand to do as they wish with the smaller farms. Are there any records for political donations from these companies to our representatives? Do we want to re-elect them this year?
Hyde is being way too nice here. It is ridiculous that they were granted to proceed into private property without the owner's permission! Land owners need to equip themselves with all the information they can. Read up on some good land owner information regarding the Marcellus Shale Industry here: http://shalestuff.com/education/land-owners-info/
Here is what the Ohio consitution said in 1851
All men are, by nature, free and independent, and have certain inalienable rights, among which are those of enjoying and defending life and liberty, acquiring, possessing, and protecting property, and seeking and obtaining happiness and safety.
Where have we went wrong? i live in Licking County we are tying to stop the pipeline here is our website, please visit and sign out petition. http://lcgao.weebly.com/

New on the VHD site recently are: Biztalk Server 2006, Windows Server 2008 Beta 3, Exchange Server 2007 SP1 Beta 2 and Windows Vista Enterprise 30-day Eval Edition. There is also a new VHD available for Microsoft Search Server 2008 Express.
Lot's of things to look at - so have a good time checking them out.
Is there a technical reason why Virtual PC (and presumable Virtual Server) will happily use a VHD on a network share but VHDMount refuses to mount them? Is there a workaround?

|Catcher Blake Mortensen blocks the plate as he tags out a Cyprus runner. Helper downed Cyprus 6 to 4 on six hits and three errors.
On Monday June 25th Helper American Legion traveled to Murray. At the time Murray was one game ahead of Helper in the Legion standings. With an 8-5 win over Murray, running their league record to 5-1, Helper climbed into a tie for second place.
Fernando Martinez pitched a complete game and had a wonderful night. After giving up four runs in the first 2 innings, he settled down and gave up only one over the next 5 innings. Helper scored a run in the 2nd inning on a single by Marcus Zaccaria and a double by Blake Mortensen. They scored three runs in the 3rd inning on a 3 run homer by JJ Blue. A bunt single by Tyler Turcasso and 3 walks gave the team another run in the fourth.
The final three runs for Helper came in the seventh to put the game out of reach. Back to back singles by Jordan Moynier and Zaccaria were followed by a double by Bradey Wilde to score them. These proved to be the big hits in the inning.
"This was a very good team effort win. Anytime you can beat Murray at Murray you should be happy with your performance. This was also our 4th road win in a row," boasted Coach Jeff Cisneros.
Murray 5 6 2
Helper 8 10 2
WP-Martinez, LP-Lawence. 2b-Mortensen(H), Wilde(H), Anderson(M), Sturgess(M) HR-Blue(H).
On Wednesday night the team was at home against Cyprus. At the start of the game Helper was one game ahead of Cyprus in the standings But the home team ended up losing 6-4. With the loss Cyprus moved into a tie for second place with Helper.
Both pitchers really controlled the game up to the forth inning. Kyler Edgehouse pitched a complete game and did a very good job once again. However, a couple of walks and 3 errors over the last 3 innings cost the team a very important win.
Both teams were scoreless until the third when Aaron Sandoval went deep for a solo shot. Cyprus scored 3 runs in the 4th on 2 walks and 2 doubles.
It didn't take Helper long to respond with 2 runs in the bottom of the 4th to tie the score at 3. A walk to Mortensen was followed up by a 2 run blast by Wilde.
Helper took the lead in the 5th as JD Sherman doubled, moved to 3rd on a single by Edgehouse and scored on a sacrifice fly by Blue. But Cyprus responded in the 6th with three runs on 2 hits and 3 errors. The local boys were unable to score and took the loss.
"This was a frustrating loss because we gave the game away in the final 2 innings. We did not hit the ball well all night, but we still had a chance for the win." Cisneros commented after the game. "Errors and walks have cost us in both of our league losses now and it something that we are going to have to keep improving on before we hit the state tournament."
Cyprus 6 5 1
Helper 4 6 3
WP-Eisheiz LP-Edgehouse. 2b-Sherman(H), Butler(C), Ikari (C), Shakspear(C) HR-Sandoval(H), Wilde(H).
Friday night saw Timpview come into town. Helper took the game 7-3.
Brett Johnson pitched a complete game and had some good stuff going despite getting behind in the early innings. Timpview scored twice in the first inning on a triple, a walk and a couple of fielders choice ground balls.
Helper bounced right back when they scored in the first on a walk and back to back singles by JJ Blue and Bradey Wilde. Timpview scored once more in the third on a single and a couple of passed balls to keep the lead.
Helper scored two more in the third on four walks and a couple of passed balls to tie it up. Then added two more in the fourth inning on two walks an error and a single by Sandoval. Saving the best for last, they finished the scoring in the sixth inning. A single by Haden Basinger and a two run homerun by Sandoval was enough to get the win.
"We played just good enough to get the win. This was a very lazy game by both teams. The game lacked enthusiasm and excitement. I was not very happy with my teams focus and effort. Even though you get a win, there is still a lot to a game.
Getting better day in and day out is something I stress very much to our team. I don't think we accomplished this on Friday night," commented a frustrated Cisneros.
Timp. 3 7 2
Helper 7 6 2
WP-Johnson, LP- Gorren. 3b-Griffin(T). Hr-Sandoval(H).
Helper's league record is at 6-2. Helper will have one game this week when they take on Olympus on Monday and off the rest of the week. They are at home against first place Kearns/Taylorsville on Monday July 9th. Kearns and Taylorsville have combined to form one team this year and are sitting in first place.

I find it impossible to juggle all my balls at one time. It seems that the more I attempt to get it ALL done the farther behind I fall.
Blogging is an all time favorite thing for me. I enjoy reading what everyone else is doing and making and where they are going and what they are seeing......
I want to be a part of all that is happening out there in blogger land......
Here it is past the halfway point on May and I haven't even gotten my own page up to date. I am way behind in reading what everyone else is doing.
I have spent the last few weeks trying to keep the house in order and trying to be proactive. That means keeping up with a calender and accomplishing task before they are due.
I have also been concentrating on one project at a time. I finally got the Storm At Sea Jane shipped off to be quilted. I then concentrated my morning time to getting the 2005 Siggy Swap quilt top together. That has been done at last. Perhaps I will get a good picture of it tomorrow.
I finished the hat and socks and sweater for my sister but I want to include a smocked dress in the package. That has been pleated and I have all the things together to get the hand work done.
Now that the weather is improving it is time to get out the summer clothes. I have several totes of fabric and patterns I have been tripping over for the last two summers. This is the year I am going to make those clothes and wear them.
As most everyone knows, Lem and I are hoping to be moving to NC in the early part of 2009. I simply must go through the cellar and garage and get those areas cleared out and get ready to move.
Let me leave with a picture of the siggy quilt in progress.

It's beautiful, Suze !... It looks like you're being very busy ! Take it easy, however, dear !....And how lucky you are being able to sew your own clothes ! (wish I could !)
Hugs & smiles !
- JudyL said...
Love the quilt! I've been having the same thoughts as you blogged about. I have so many irons in the fire. I look around me and there are UFO's everywhere -- quilting, sewing, knitting. I want to stop what I'm doing and finish one thing at a time but that's probably not in my nature.
- Hanne said...
Hello Suze :-)
Pick 1-3 projects and work on them only. You know how it works and I am sure you have seen I have worked the same way lately as I have been totally overwhelmed with it all - healing, exercising, fabric collection, projects, deadlines, upcoming teaching - you name it. For every finish and every yard of fabric used I feel a better and more in control. Shoulder by shoulder - you and me!
- Connie said...
That quilt is wonderful. And I know what you mean about keeping up with blogs, ever since I've started my blog I have enjoyed the process.
- Pam said...
The siggy quilt looks great. I really like the setting for the blocks.
I love the blogging - but it is hard to keep up sometimes. If I have to work a couple of days and miss reading the blogs I fall way behind and then feel badly that I'm not able to read all the blogs in depth and comment like I would like. But I love to see what everyone is up to even if I can't comment all the time :))
- Shelina said...
I'm doing what you are doing - trying to get proactive with the housework, and trying to get ready to move, trying to do things one at a time to the finish. And I am miserably failing. I just love the quilt you have posted, and what a lovely setting to put it in.

They did not have enough room in the hostel when we arrived so they took us to another hostel around the corner which in our opinion was not as nice. It was not the hostel we booked so it was very disappointing.

We spent three relaxed days in Tata Inti and had some good talks with Fernando and Catarina and her Kids. Also the long term guests are quite nice and soon include you if you like. Our overall impression is good and the place recommended by us, mainley to budget /alternative travellers. The Hostel has seen better days though, it was rather cold, also in common rooms, and somewhat dark eventhough pretty paintings show lively colors. There is warm water but taking a shower is an adventure :)

Tibet in this year's Asian Studies Conference
This year's conference of the Association for Asian Studies (AAS), "a scholarly, non-political, non-profit professional association open to all persons interested in Asia and the study of Asia" was held in Philadelphia from March 25 to 28, 2010. I had the occasion to participate in a similar conference held in 2008 and to present a paper then, which I titled "From Tsampa Eaters to Political Symbol: Evolution of Tibetan Identity in Tibet and Outside." Tibet was very much a visible part of that year's conference. Therefore, I looked at this year's conference to see how Tibet fared.

Chinese Anxiety over the Dalai Lama's Reincarnation
China may be an up and coming superpower. It can boast that economically it has the world on its knees. However, this world power is powerless to do anything when the Dalai Lama expands on his future incarnations. Hence in recent times we see increasing signs of worry coming from Beijing.
In the first half of March alone, three Tibetan officials, Pema Thinlye,
Jampa Phuntsok and Shintsa Tenzin Choedak, have been used by China to voice this anxiety in different ways.
China understands the important historical, religious and cultural bond
between the Tibetan people and the Dalai Lama. China also knows that its
adherence to atheism as a state policy puts it in a weak spot at trying to
control a very distinctly spiritual process like the reincarnation of the
Dalai Lama. At least the Manchu Emperors of the past, whom the present
Chinese rulers trace their lineage on this (to use a religious metaphor),
were in a better place because they themselves were patrons of Tibetan
Buddhism and even practiced it.
The Tibetan people in Tibet and outside have shown time and again that they know that the Dalai Lama has the welfare of the Tibetan people at his heart.
The strong bond between the Tibetan people and the Dalai Lama is something that the Chinese Government sees as a threat to its existence. Therefore, attempts are being made to make the Tibetan people choose between the Communist Party or the Dalai Lama with enough hints being given to make the "right" choice.
Even though His Holiness is in good health and despite their own
holier-than-thou pretension about waiting until this Dalai Lama passes away before talking about his reincarnation, Chinese officials are trying to
claim their right to select the next Dalai Lama. Given that they only have a
political agenda, the Chinese authorities are placed in difficulty when the
Dalai Lama talks about his reincarnation the way he has been doing. They
are not able to accept the reality that it is the present Dalai Lama who
will be calling the shot as far as his reincarnation is concerned.
At the most the Chinese Government can do is to select their own politicized boy when the time comes. If that happens, the Chinese will have far more difficulty in getting the Tibetan people's acknowledgement, leave alone reverence, to such a person unless it has direct or indirect endorsement by the present Dalai Lama. Also, spiritually the Dalai Lama's followers are not only in Tibet but also in the Himalayan region, Mongolia as well as internationally where there are increasing practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism. Even if the Chinese Government feels it can use political muscle to make the Tibetans in Tibet accept its selection, how would it hope to get the acceptance from these Buddhists who live in the free world.
Tibetan Buddhists believe that when the historical Buddha took birth in the
specific place and time as he did, he did so after taking into
considerations five congenial environmental factors. If the Chinese rulers
are really concerned about the next Dalai Lama they ought to look to
creating the proper spiritual environment. Vilification of the present Dalai
Lama is a wrong choice and will only serve China's short-term political
interest without creating the necessary environment for a future Dalai Lama.

This is the product of research by a team of Harvard Business School authorities on service-firm management.

NEWPORT–In a rematch of their second game of the season, the North Country soccer boys once again fell at the hands of the BFA St. Albans, this time by the score of 3-0.
"We came out flat, it is as simple as that," said NCU coach James McKenny. "We missed a lot of chances, a lot of set pieces we had inside their defensive third and we weren't able to capitalize on any of them.
"Hats off to BFA, they played eighty minutes of soccer and we didn't."
For the full story, see the Express on Monday 9-23-13.
NEWPORT-Briana Bocelli's first-half hat trick was all the Falcons would need, but they added one more, defeating Montpelier 4-1 in their long-awaited home debut on Friday.
Bocelli scored the first three goals of the game before Montpelier's Samantha Ringer broke up NCU keeper Myrriah Gonyaw's bid for a second straight shut-out.
Brittany Fortier had the fourth goal for the Falcons who improve to 3-0-1, good for second place behind Bellows Falls in Division III.
They will look to keep the ball rolling next Thursday when they travel to Waterbury to take on Harwood.
NEWPORT-Both the UCA boys and the North Country girls soccer clubs picked up losses at home, while the Lake Region girls earned a win on the road in Friday's high school soccer action.
UCA got underway first against Trinity Baptist, and the visiting squad unloaded six goals on the home club before Justin Limoges broke the shut-out with a penalty kick goal late in the second half.
6-1 was the final in the contest as the Crusaders move 0-4 on the year.
Over at North Country Union High School, the Falcons were hosting the BFA Comets in a rematch from their first game of the season.
COVENTRY – Things will by flying at the Newport State Airport this weekend as Dan Gauvin, owner of Lake View Aviation, presents a mini air show in conjunction of the Parker Pie Wings Restaurant grand opening. Dan Marcotte and Hugh Shickle will perform aerobatic tricks in the mid-afternoon to celebrate the opening of the restaurant.
For the rest of this story, see Friday's Newport Daily Express for Sept. 20, 2013.
DERBY LINE – Fernando Beltran is on the hunt. He turns his Chevy Tahoe from a main road in Holland, Vermont, onto a narrow, winding dirt road that runs along the Vermont–Quebec border, a road that many people probably don't even notice as they speed past.
Although deer and deer hunters are a common sight along the rural, forested border region, Beltran is not hunting for deer. Instead, he is hunting for drug smugglers and other people trying to enter the United States illegally. He is a United States Border Patrol agent.
COVENTRY – Selectmen met with neighboring town officials Wednesday to discuss fire coverage.
Coventry doesn't have its own fire department. Instead, it pays Newport City, Newport Center, Orleans, and Irasburg per firefighter who responds to a scene. It also pays per piece of apparatus used at a scene. Now Coventry officials hope to pay an annual base fee to help the department with its operating budget.
MORRISVILLE-Josh Thibault drove home a penalty kick with 4:55 remaining in overtime to lift Lake Region past Peoples Academy 1-0 on Wednesday afternoon in high school boys soccer.
Thibault's strike continues the Rangers' unbeaten streak in the same fashion they began: overtime victories.
No. Country 1, Milton 0
MILTON Mara Spates' goal in the second half was the difference as the Falcons defeated the Yellow Jackets to improve to 2-1 this season.
"It was a beautiful game," said NCU coach Chantelle Bouchard. "The play was very even, and fortunately we came out on top."
In addition to scoring the Falcons' goal, Spates was very instrumental in the team's overall play, contributing anything that was needed to help move North Country down the field.
Said Bouchard, "She had a great game. She was everywhere we wanted her to be, and her goal was absolutely awesome."
NEWPORT CITY – Retailers who have a presence at the Waterfront Plaza will have a place to call home until at least January 2016.
Tony Pomerleau, property owner and Burlington developer, and Bill Stenger, president and co-owner of Jay Peak Resort, have been in talks about entering a buy-sell agreement for several years. The plan is to raze the structures on the property and build a new convention center and hotel with suites, restaurants, and retail stores. Â
NEWPORT, VT – Throughout Vermont, community members are bucking the trend of large grocery stores and food chains and choosing something closer to home: community gardens. From one end of the state to the other, in towns, cities, and on school property, adults and children are learning how to grow local produce that is healthy to eat. More importantly, they are learning skills necessary for community involvement, interaction and education, and the joy of digging in the dirt and watching something grow and mature.

A Guide to Cover Letters – With Colors!
Last week, I said that I would explain how to craft a good cover letter and thank you letter. In the process of doing this, I realized that these individual topics required more explanation than I anticipated. In an effort to avoid overwhelming amounts of info, I've decided to focus on cover letters this week and thank you letters next week. Sorry! Don't be mad. I shall pay you back with interest – after thank you letters, I will cover tricky questions you might often hear in job interviews, rounding out an unintentional, but nonetheless helpful job-hunting series. See? It all works out. Now about those cover letters…
Are cover letters necessary?
It depends (worst answer, I know). I've heard recruiters say they never read it. I've heard some say they skim it to make sure it sounds professional and fits the job description, but it's not a deal-breaker. I've seen instances when a great cover letter led to a job interview. And I've had some colleagues email me cover letters just to tell me how horrible they are.
It's hard to predict how important your cover letter will be to the person who is reading it. For all you know, it might be forwarded to a few other people before you are called in for an interview. So as a general rule, unless you are told not to, include a cover letter and make sure it is well-written. If you are applying for a position that requires a lot of writing, expect that your cover letter will be taken into heavy consideration. In all other situations, you are still better off having a cover letter that nobody reads rather than having a bad cover letter or no cover letter when it actually mattered.
How do you write a cover letter?
Your cover letter is you initial impression and your introduction as a living, breathing applicant, not just a resume posted on a job site. Thus, it is important to have a solid cover letter that answers the question, "Why are you the best fit for this job?" You can format this like a business letter and include an intro, body and conclusion. As a sample, here is the cover letter I wrote for the position I have now. I color coded the sections to help break it down.
Date – Make sure this is the right date. Sometimes we forget to change this between copying and pasting from old cover letters. To be safe, if you are using Microsoft Word, insert the date and make sure it auto-updates.
Salutation – If you don't know to whom you should address your letter, "Dear Sir or Madam:" is fine. If you do have a contact, please make sure you have his/her name spelled properly.
Intro – this is the most important paragraph because depending on who reads it, this might be the only paragraph he/she reads. Introduce yourself. State the position for which you are applying. You may want to mention how you heard about the opening, especially if it was through a special alumni database or through a connection with the company.
Thesis – This sentence sums up why they should hire you. I strongly suggest highlighting traits that are taken from the job description. For example, if the company wants a detail-oriented, organized event planner and you tell them that you are highly creative with strong leadership skills, you've given them two great traits that have nothing to do with what they wanted. Your other qualities are certainly assets. But you want to show that you're not just the best person for the job, you are the best fit for the job.
Body – Take this opportunity to explain what's on your resume, not just repeat what's on your resume. Elaborate on your work history and responsibilities. Talk about specific projects and state how your experiences have prepared you to take on the position for which you are applying.
Closing – Reiterate why they should hire you. Mention any enclosures to your resume, including your resume, writing samples or any other requested materials. Then politely request an interview, thank the recipient for his/her consideration, cross your fingers and hope for the best!
Proofreading your cover letter
Proofread your cover letter multiple times. Then have a friend proofread it, too. It never hurts to have another pair of eyes when you have been staring at a document too long. Be particularly wary of the date, the salutation and the position/company/industry. Getting that last bit incorrect because you copied and pasted from a former cover letter all but destroys your chances of getting called in.
I hope I've provided some clarity on the topic. If you have questions or additional tips, feel free to post them in the comments. Best of luck!

Swedish police call in back-up after worst riots in years
Posted By Adan On May 24, 2013 @ 5:56 pm In Old Infowars Posts Style,World News | Comments Disabled
May 24, 2013
Police in Stockholm called in reinforcements after rioters set cars and a school ablaze in a fifth night of rioting, described as the worst in years.
About 30 cars have been torched and eight people, mostly aged in their early 20s, have been detained overnight.
Police said they needed to call in extra back-up from the cities of Malmo and Gothenburg.
The riots are mainly young people protesting over a growing divide between the rich and poor.

Period Analysis: Devils-Islanders Through Two
Thoughts on Period No. 2 of Devils-Isles…
- The first goal (Zajac from Kovalchuk, Tallinder at 14:01) was an absolute beauty. The Isles got caught in a shift change and Henrik Tallinder smartly looked up the ice from his own zone and hit Kovy on the tape at the other blue line. Kovy played it on his off wing as Zajac cut to the net on the far side and Kovy saucered a beauty that Nabokov had no chance on. The top line looks really good tonight. They had another rush later on in the period that Kovy probably should have shot on, but instead he dropped it to the defenseman and the shot didn't get through.
- Devils got their first shot to work their revamped, Sharks-style PP under Matt Shaw. In a word: ugly. To no one's surprise, the Devils didn't hit on a lot of passes and struggled to find someone cutting backdoor. This will take time.
- The Islanders came alive during the period, attacking the Devils in their zone more often and finally generating some legit scoring chances. Marty was up to the task though. He hasn't been tested a ton, but when he was he looks like he's been playing more than golf the last three months.
- Speaking of which, outside of that one goal, Evgeni Nabokov has looked good. If he can play like this for most of the season, the Devils should have a shot to stick in the playoff chase until at least the end of March.
- I wrote down midway through the period that ti looked like a one-goal game. The Devils are attacking, but it looks like it'll take another breakdown for them to get a second one on the board.
- It's only 2 periods, but I have legitimate concerns about how the Devils are gonna struggle to score goals this season. Their PP will take a long while to figure out without practice time and although they have some high-talent players, they're asking an awful lot out of their second and third options.

If odds-on favorite Daniel Day Lewis wins the best actor award tonight, he is planning a long retreat to Ireland for several years away from acting, according to a new report.
Day-Lewis has told his agents that he is on "sabbatical," according to the London Sunday Times, and is not currently working on, or is signed on for any new movies.
According to the report, he wants to take time off to learn "rural skills such as stonemasonry."
He reportedly will take a hiatus of five years, which means he will be over sixty the next time he appears on the silver screen. The actor has been known to take long breaks from movies in the past.
The British-born actor also has Irish citizenship, and owns a 50-acre farm in Co-Wicklow, according to Irish Central.
If Day-Lewis wins best actor at The Oscars Sunday for his role in Lincoln, he will be the first-ever to win the award three times. He won the award previously for roles in There Will Be Blood and My Left Foot.
Going into Sunday, he is tied with the likes of Marlon Brando, Tom Hanks, Dustin Hoffman and Jack Nicholson for two-time best actor winners.

Joe Mauer one of three finalists for Rawlings AL Gold Glove at catcher
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
Rawlings on Friday announced three finalists at every position for the American League and National League Gold Glove awards.
Catcher Joe Mauer is the only member of the Twins to be nominated.
The other A.L. catcher finalists are Salvador Perez of the Kansas City Royals and Matt Wieters of the Baltimore Orioles.
Some thought Brian Dozier could get a look at second base, but a trio of AL East second basemen were named finalists: Robinson Cano (Yankees), Dustin Pedroia (Red Sox) and Ben Zobrist (Rays).
Mauer won the A.L. Gold Glove in 2008, 2009 and 2010.
For the first time, the awards process will include a sabermetric component this season.
From CBS Sports:
As part of the multi-year collaboration beginning with the 2013 season, SABR will develop an expanded statistical resource guide that will accompany the Rawlings Gold Glove Award ballots sent to managers and coaches each year. In addition, SABR will immediately establish a new Fielding Research Committee tasked to develop a proprietary new defensive analytic called the SABR Defensive IndexTM, or SDITM. The SDI will serve as an "apples-to-apples" metric to help determine the best defensive players in baseball exclusively for the Rawlings Gold Glove Award and Rawlings Platinum Glove Award selection processes. The collaboration also installs SABR as the presenting sponsor of the Rawlings Platinum Glove Award.
Beginning in 2013, the managers/coaches vote will constitute a majority of the Rawlings Gold Glove Award winners' selection tally, with the new SDI comprising of the remainder of the overall total.
That's good news for anyone who wants to see validity restored to the Gold Glove voting process. Often the vote is swayed by how well a player performed offensively, and defensive wizards can go ignored if their bat isn't up to snuff.
Defensive analytics are far from perfect, and should not be used exclusively. But as they are refined and continue to more accurately evaluate how much value a player yields with his glove, they should be relied on more heavily.
Other names that Twins fans will recognize: Baltimore's J.J. Hardy, an A.L. shortstop finalist; R.A. Dickey, Blue Jays starting pitcher; Carlos Gomez, Brewers centerfielder; and Denard Span, Nationals centerfielder.
Gold Glove winners will be announced Tuesday.

Our Score
- Loads of features
- Good build quality
- Sound quality without wireless sub
- Sound quality with wireless sub
- No HDMI inputs
- Some sound modes only accessible onscreen
Review Price £349.99
Manufacturer: Pioneer
What is the Pioneer SBX-N700?
It's a soundbar system with a neat twist. Not only does it deliver big sound from a compact speaker but it also streams media wirelessly over a network and sends YouTube video content straight to your telly. This extra functionality is reflected in a slightly higher price tag than most soundbars, but it's not outrageously expensive and throws in a wireless subwoofer for the money that isn't included with the £250 SBX-N500 and £170 SBX-N300.
SEE ALSO: 6 best soundbars you can buy
Pioneer SBX-N700 – Design
The SBX-N700 is by no means jaw-dropping, but it's attractively styled in a matt black finish with grey mesh on its angled front section. A black display panel in the middle shows selected inputs, volume levels and other info in seven-segment digits, while various lights above it tell you which sound modes are active. On top is a row of slim buttons to control volume and input selection.
It's a chunky and robust soundbar, but its 900mm width doesn't feel intrusive and makes it a perfect partner for 40 or 46in TVs. At both ends are bass reflex ports that manage airflow from the built-in subwoofers.
As for the wireless subwoofer, it's relatively tall but smartly styled in black with a curvy port at the front. Thankfully it's quite slim, which should make it easy to slot beside the sofa or TV stand.
Pioneer SBX-N700 – Connections
On the front is a USB port (something of a rarity on soundbars) that allows you to play media from flash drives, and a 3.5mm audio input to hook up portable devices on the fly.
The rest of the connections are found in a recess on the back. They include an ARC-compatible HDMI output, which not only outputs DLNA/internet content but also receives audio signals from the TV, eliminating the need to rig up a separate optical cable. Audio from sources connected to your TV is passed to the Pioneer through this ARC connection.
Great, but we'd have liked a few HDMI inputs too. This would have allowed you to pass your Blu-ray deck or Sky box through the Pioneer to a single HDMI input on your TV, and switch between them. As it stands, the Pioneer has to be connected to one HDMI input on your TV, while your Blu-ray deck is connected to another.
The downside here is that you have to switch to a different HDMI input every time you want to view the Pioneer's online content or visit the setup menu. That's a pain because a) you have to stop watching your movie and b) it cuts out the ARC audio connection.
For those without an ARC-compatible TV, there are two optical digital inputs. The SBX-N700 boasts built-in Wi-Fi, which lets you connect to your network wirelessly, but there's an Ethernet port too. Finally, there's an input for the supplied infrared extender, which is useful if the soundbar blocks your TV's receiver.

Stk. 1482 1962 Willys Station Wagon Perhaps the first popular Sport Utility Vehicle ever designed and manufactured, this eight- passenger, two-door wagon won't win any beauty awards, but it wasn't meant to. It was designed and built to reflect Willy's reputation for toughness, function and dependability. The cream-painted body and off-white top are in very good condition - as is the original interior, featuring clean and well-maintained vinyl tan bench seats. A rugged Continental 6-226 Super Hurricane flathead inline six cylinder engine is hooked-up to a 3-Speed T90 transmission (with floor shifter) and a Dana 4-wheel drive transfer case with lockout front hubs. Serving as a precursor to the renowned Jeep Wagoneer, this Willys was (and still IS) an American original - an original you can be proud to own and drive for years to come. Call

Young Swiss violinist makes Welsh debut
Having made their Wigmore Hall debut last year, violinist Deborah Marchetti and pianist Stefan Wirth returned to the UK for their first performance in Wales.
The concert on Tuesday 22 November at Cardiff University Concert Hall was the result of close collaboration between the Consulate of Switzerland in Cardiff and the School of Music.
The School of Music has developed excellent working partnerships with a number of organisations in the UK and internationally and in 2011/12, as a result, music in Cardiff has a strong Swiss flavour. The Cardiff Sacher series of the BBC National Orchestra of Wales in collaboration with Cardiff University's School of Music, also has the support of the Embassy of Switzerland in London for the gala concert to be held at Hoddinott Hall, 16 March 2012 at 7 p.m.
Deborah Marchetti, who studied at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna and performed at the Vienna Musikverein, has won many awards including the Béla-Bartók prize and plays a violin created by Francesco Ruggeri (Cremona 1652), on loan from a group of private sponsors, while Stefan Wirth has studied in Switzerland, the US and the UK earning praise for his work as a soloist, chamber musician, composer and director.
Tuesday's programme will include the world première of a new piece commissioned by Deborah and Stefan from Swiss composer Edu Haubensak, Ravel's Sonata for violin and piano, Szymanowski's evocative Trois Mythes and Beethoven's famous 'Kreutzer' sonata.
Ruth Lehmann-Thomas, Honorary Consul, said: "This is a tangible result of the work we do with our partners to promote cultural co-operation between Wales and Switzerland."

The "Jewish terrorist" who tried to murder members of an Israeli Messianic Jewish family because of their faith, has been declared fit to stand trial.
The Jerusalem District Court decided this week that Jack Teitel would stand trial for the murder of two Palestinians in separate incidents as well as for placing a bomb disguised as a Purim holiday gift basket at the home of David and Leah Ortiz in 2008.
David Ortiz is an outspoken Messianic pastor and his wife Leah is a Messianic Jew. His son Ami, 15 years old at the time, opened the gift package. It exploded in his face, nearly killing him. Doctors said it was a miracle that he survived.
Teitel's lawyer had said he did not know if his client should be held criminally accountable for his acts, and last year a psychiatric examination deemed him unfit for trial.
Teitel, a religious Jew who was quoted as saying at the time, "I don't know if I'm sane. I don't recognize the jurisdiction of this court. I feel good." However, a later psychiatric evaluation contradicted the first.
When the announcement was made more than a year after the attack that Teitel had been arrested, Ami's parents told CBN News they were chilled by the news.
"It was very chilling," Ami's mother, Leah, recalled. "In other words, I felt like my heart go cold. Because even though we know that there are people, actual flesh and blood people, that did it, just the fact that we found out what settlement they were from, that there were neighbors."
"I felt pain for these people. I prayed for them this morning," Ami's father, David, said. "I mean, he's going to try and kill people, assassinate people, and ruin your whole life."

A whisky bar at home is the dream of many well-heeled Indians. But before you start, it's important to build up a good collection of whiskies. Besides, other details such as the right glasses should also be kept in mind when setting it up. A good whisky home bar should stock whiskies based on ease of access, cost, availability, guests' comfort with all spirits, varied palate and simplicity. The frequency of entertaining guests at home should also be kept in mind.
Japanese scotch whisky supremacy
November 10, 2008
Reshmi Dasgupta , ET Bureau
Japanese whisky sounds a bit like Indian Scotch, right? But unlike us, the Japanese seem to have bested the west at their own game: earlier this year one of their single malts was judged the world's best whisky, at a blind tasting of 200 top labels including Scottish ones! Recently I had a taste of that very whisky, at its Indian premiere at Wasabi in the Taj Mahal Hotel in Delhi ? a 20-year-old malt called Yoichi. Not only did the Japanese malt from the producer...

NEW DELHI: When it comes to loyalty, Indian drinkers are dram good. Whisky marketers can raise a toast to the Indian tippler's priority preference.

According to a study conducted by leading marketing research organisation NFONBL for Allied Domecq in big metros like Mumbai, Delhi and Kolkata, scotch drinkers gave...
