A performance program led by the Interdisciplinary Laboratory for Art Nature and Dance (iLAND) will explore the connection we all have as individuals and a city to our waterways and water infrastructure.The program is one of several public engagements held by the The Urban Backstage residency, supported by the Manhattan-based iLAND and the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council (LMCC).
The City of Water Day Festival is a free, day-long celebration of the world-class potential of the water that surrounds us and brings us together. The festival's events draws thousands of people from throughout New York and New Jersey to participate in hundreds of unique, fun, and educational waterfront activities organized by the Metropolitan Waterfront Alliance (MWA) and its more than 800 Alliance Partners. The events run between 10:00am and 6:00pm on Saturday July 18, 2015.
oin the CTBUH New York City Chapter for a discussion on the VIA 57 West Building. Guest speakers Bjarke Ingels (BIG), Aine Brazil (Thornton Tomasetti), and Jeff Crompton (Hunter Roberts) will discuss the architecture, engineering, and construction process behind this unique structure.
VIA stands tall at 467 (142 meters) feet and is one of the most architecturally distinctive buildings constructed in New York City. The building provides a dramatic visual gateway to Manhattan's skyline along the Hudson River. VIA is a hybrid between the European perimeter block and a traditional Manhattan high-rise development. The building's unique shape combines the advantages of both: the compactness and efficiency of a courtyard building providing density, a sense of intimacy, and expansive views. The form of the building shifts depending on the viewer's vantage point. While appearing like a pyramid from the West Side Highway, it turns into a dramatic glass spire when seen from West 58th Street.
6:30 - 7:30PM: Reception/Networking
7:30 - 7:35PM: Welcome by Dennis Poon (CTBUH Trustee & Vice-Chairman of Thornton Tomasetti)

A perfect evening for design professionals and students alike!
Indonesia is a meeting point of several tectonic plates, so he becomes one of the most seismically active areas on the planet with long history of powerful eruptions and earthquakes. Like almost of every country members of the Asia Pacific region, Indonesia lie on what we call "Ring of Fire" which is very prone to volcano disasters
On behalf of the Indonesia Society of Landscape Architects (ISLA), I take with pleasure to reminding you of and at the same time inviting you to participate in 2015 IFLA APR Congress which will be held in Mataram, Lombok Island, Indonesia on 7-9 of September 2015. Theme of the 2015 congress is "Future Mountain and Volcanoscape". In the frame work of this congress, a seminar, an excursion to and an anniversary will be organized.
The 2015 IFLA APR Congress will be held in conjunction with a celebration of the 200 years of the largest volcanic eruption recorded in modern civilization history. It is the eruption of Mount Tambora, which is 4.300 m high in the year of 1815. It totally created new landscapes, buried three kingdoms, killed about 17.000 people, and produced global anomaly climate and political impact.
The organizing committee is amidst putting up a very interesting congress programs and combined with the possibility for participants and accompanying persons to experience an enjoyable social cultural program with memorable visits and cultural performances, your participation in this important event promises to be both educative and pleasant. Please, don't forget to register yourself as soon as possible. Until then, hoping to see you all at the congress. Welcome to Indonesia.

Beautifully illustrated with line drawings and photographs, engagingly presented, and organized by neighborhoods, this richly detailed guide takes a narrative approach, telling stories that illuminate the architectural, personal, and social histories of Manhattan, building by building. Alongside details about each architect, dates, and styles, author Tom Miller reveals the joys, tragedies, and scandals of those who lived within. In addition to iconic structures, the book includes many off-the-beaten-path buildings, as well as notable buildings that no longer stand but remain key to Manhattan's architectural history.
Tom Miller moved to New York City in 1979 from Dayton, Ohio, bringing with him a passion for buildings. He currently holds the rank of deputy inspector within the NYPD's Auxiliary Police Force. In 2009 he started a blog, "Daytonian in Manhattan", which has now reviewed over a thousand buildings, statues, and other points of interest.
All book talks are free and open to the public. The Gallery opens at 6:00pm.
All guests must RSVP to programs[at]skyscraper[dot]org to assure admittance to the event. Please be aware that reservation priority is given to members of The Skyscraper Museum.
From irrefutable icons to lesser-known structures throughout the city, much of what makes New York City unique owes its existence to the New York City Landmarks Law. Born out of the destruction of McKim, Mead & White's monumental Pennsylvania Station, the Landmarks Law established the parameters for protecting the places that represent New York City's rich cultural, social, political, and architectural history. Today there are more than 31,000 landmark properties woven into daily life, many located in 111 historic districts across the city — including 1,347 individual buildings, 117 interior landmarks, and 10 scenic landmarks.
Published in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the passage of the Landmarks Law, and a major exhibition at the Museum of the City of New York,Saving Place tells its story in essays by notable New Yorkers and preservationists, including Robert A.M. Stern, Adele Chatfield-Taylor, Andrew S. Dolkart, Françoise Bollack, Anthony C. Wood, and Claudette Brady. Andrew S. Dolkart is the Director of the Historic Preservation Program and Professor of Historic Preservation at Columbia University's Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation. He is the author of numerous books on the architecture and urban development of New York City, focusing in particular on the city's everyday, vernacular building types, including Morningside Heights: A History of Its Architecture and Development, Biography of a Tenement House in New York City: An Architectural History of 97 Orchard Street, and The Row House Reborn: Architecture and Neighborhoods in New York City 1908-1929.
All book talks are free and open to the public. The Gallery opens at 6:00pm.

Stanford, Calif.—A major exhibition of Giovanni Battista Piranesi's last master works—15 exquisitely rendered drawings made in 1777 of three ancient Greek temples in Paestum, southern Italy—opens at the Cantor Arts Center on August 19.Piranesi's Paestum: Master Drawings Uncovered, which also includes prints and rare books of the period, sheds new light on this celebrated 18th-century artist's working method and on the considerable impact of his oeuvre on 18th- and 19th-century architectural taste. The Cantor is the only West-Coast venue for this exhibition, which originated at Sir John Soane's Museum, London.
While Piranesi (1720–1778) is primarily known as the creator of such famous print series as the Vedute di Roma and especially the Carceri d'Invenzione (see biographical paragraph below), this exhibition focuses on some of his rare drawings. The Paestum drawings are Piranesi's most extensive body of work devoted to a single topographical site.
Made in preparation for his Différentes Vues…de Pesto—a book finished by his son, Francesco, and published posthumously in 1778–79—the drawings depict views of the three great Doric temples in the former Greek colony of Poseidonia, which in the third century B.C. was conquered by the Romans and renamed Paestum. (The temples were originally identified as the Basilica, the Temple of Poseidon and the Temple of Juno or Ceres, but are now determined to have been dedicated to Hera I, Hera II and Athena.) Left abandoned and cut off by a swamp, Paestum's ruins were rediscovered in 1746 thanks to the construction of a new road. They sparked intense interest among artists and architects including Piranesi, and the consequent drawings, prints, paintings and models of the temples revolutionized people's understanding of early Greek Classical architecture in general and the Doric style in particular. Roman architecture, until this time deemed the style that architects should emulate, now seemed derivative.
The drawings on view are also unusual within Piranesi's portfolio due to their level of detail. Although Piranesi made preparatory drawings for most of his famous etchings, he typically drew the majority of his composition directly onto the copper plate at the engraving stage. These drawings, however, contain details very close to those of the finished prints, and it is speculated that Piranesi, aware of his failing health, included as much detail as possible so that Francesco could finish the work that his father had begun. Piranesi uses the full repertoire of his draftsmanship to create images that artistically represent the architecture of the Paestum temples and also bring out their evocative, rustic setting. Meanwhile the consecutive application of pencil, brown and grey washes, and pen and ink—sometimes with the addition of red chalk or white chalk highlights—creates a layered effect comparable to the repeated bitings used during the printing process.
Piranesi also employs the scena per angolo, a drafting method developed by 18th-century Italian stage-set designers, which replaces a drawing's traditional, one-point perspective with several diagonal axes, thereby allowing the artist to open up the three-dimensional space for greater dramatic effect. This method was especially useful in a setting like Paestum, where many spectacular vistas were visible through the temples' colonnades.
Well-known British architect and collector Sir John Soane, whose own oeuvre was deeply inspired by classical architecture, acquired these drawings at an auction in 1817. Since then the works have been held in the collection of a museum that Soane established in his own house after becoming a professor of architecture at the Royal Academy.
The Cantor has augmented Piranesi's drawings with prints that include a portrait of Piranesi by the Italian artist Francesco ("Felice") Polanzani (c. 1700–after 1783), and rare books by British and French architects who explore the importance of early Greek architecture both in Greece and in the Magna Graecia region (Southern Italy and Sicily). The books are on loan from Stanford University Libraries, Department of Special Collections; University of California, Berkeley's Environmental Design Library; and the University of Chicago Library, Special Collections Research Center.
Wim de Wit, the Cantor's adjunct curator of architecture and design, is delighted that the Cantor has brought this important exhibition to Stanford University and the greater Northern California community. "These drawings are unique works of art created by one of the most ingenious artists of late-18th-century Italy, and they have never been displayed anywhere outside Sir John Soane's Museum in London until this exhibition tour," said de Wit. "The exhibition also raises important questions about why the drawings were made and when, about the relationship between the artist's drawings and the finished prints and about the late-18th-century revival of interest in the Doric style."
Exhibition Organization and Support
This exhibition was organized by Sir John Soane's Museum, London. We gratefully acknowledge support for the exhibition's presentation at the Cantor from John A. and Cynthia Fry Gunn, Frances and Theodore Geballe's Pre-19th-Century European Art Fund, and Mary Anne Nyburg Baker and G. Leonard Baker, Jr.
Giovanni Battista Piranesi
Piranesi was born in 1720 in Mogliano Veneto, north of Venice. As a young man, Piranesi studied architecture under his uncle Matteo Lucchesi, a Venetian engineer who served as the magistrate of waterworks. He also learned etching and engraving under Giuseppe Vasi, and often visited Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, one of the great painters of his day. Around 1745, after his move to Rome, he began two projects that brought him fame: Carceri d'Invenzione, a fantastical series of 16 prints showing enormous subterranean vaults filled with labyrinthine staircases and massive machines, and Vedute di Roma, views of Rome depicting both the modern city and its ancient ruins. Later in his life he devoted himself to the measurement of many ancient Roman structures, which led to the publication of Roman Antiquities of the Time of the First Republic and the First Emperors. He also opened a printing facility, embarked on the restoration of Santa Maria del Priorato church in the Villa of the Knights of Malta in Rome, became a member of the Accademia di San Luca and was made a knight of the Golden Spur. He created his last master works, the Paestum drawings, at the end of a long illness, and died in Rome in 1778.
Cantor Arts Center
The Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University is a vital and dynamic institution with a venerable history. Founded in 1891 with the university, the historic museum was expanded and renamed in 1999 for lead donors Iris and B. Gerald Cantor. The Cantor's encyclopedic collection spans 5,000 years, includes more than 40,000 artworks and beckons visitors to travel around the world and through time: from Africa to the Americas to Asia, from classical to contemporary. With 24 galleries presenting selections from the collection and more than 20 special exhibitions each year, the Cantor serves Stanford's academic community, draws art lovers from the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond and attracts campus visitors from around the world. Free admission, free tours, lectures, family activities plus changing exhibitions make the Cantor one of the most well-attended university art museums in the country and a great resource for teaching and research on campus.
An exploration of China through the lens of filmmaker and anthropologist J.P. Sniadecki.
A researcher from Harvard's revered Sensory Ethnography Lab (from which has come films such as Leviathan (2012) and Manakamana (2013)) Sniadecki's singular, experimental and engaging work continually breaks its own fourth wall, blurring the line between documentary and art in its search to reveal the construction of places, people and film itself. This screening presents two of Sniadecki's works in London for the first time, using a pair of infrastructural arteries – one ecological, one industrial – to reveal keen insights into the labour, life and economy of a nation on the move.
The Iron Ministry offers a vital armpits-and-all social portrait of China via the mobile microcosm of a journey on what will soon be the world's largest railway network.
A montage of multiple rail journeys into one, the film offers audiences a trip in a cinematic carriage, in which ongoing changes in China's society and economy, technology and development, hopes and fears, all ride. Both painting sensorial pictures and engaging passengers in intimate dialogue, the camera becomes a fellow passenger of the train – both a participant and an observer – in the film's non-narrative investigation into the realities of contemporary China, the passage of modernity, and the possibilities of documentary form. "[The film's accomplishment is found in the encounters between the many elements that went into the making of the film...] The classic, iconic, and clichéd encounter between the railways and cinema; the encounter between human beings and the physical/architectural space of each train car (and how that encounter shapes bodies, postures, gestures, interactions, etc); the encounters between passengers – and between passengers and the filmmaker – within the fleeting social space that each train car creates; the encounters between ideologies, motivations, aspirations, and values within those encounters; and the encounter between a filmmaker and a small hand-held consumer camera and the cinematography that it produced." – J.P. Sniadecki China/USA, 2014, J.P. Sniadecki, 82 mins. Mandarin with English subtitles.
In 1908, Frederick Robie, a young Chicago businessman, hired Frank Lloyd Wright to build a modern home for his family. Robie wanted a house with wide open rooms filled with light, and great views of the surrounding neighborhood. Robie described his new home as "the most ideal place in the world."
What would your ideal home look like? Would it have a pool, a green roof, lots of windows, or how about an indoor slide instead of stairs? Let your imagination run wild and try your hand at constructing your perfect home from cardboard and found objects. Supplies will be provided, but participants are encouraged to bring their own objects to add to their constructions.
Wright's architectural masterpiece is the venue and you are on the guest list. Gather with friends as the Robie House comes to life after hours. Wander the celebrated spaces of this icon of modernism while enjoying live music, drinks, light hors d'oeuvres and a festive, casual atmosphere.

very good recipe. i used 1 1/2 t of orange extract that gave it more of an orange flavor. nice bread.
Learn how to spell. I don't even try recipes with incorrect spellings!
A+ recipe. I followed recipe exactly except read reviews and poked holes on top too. It took exactly one hour. It didn't say how much orange zest so I used one orange (honeybell). This recipe is definitely a keeper.

What Vacation rental travel guild say about us.
To be completely honest I must say, as a European who has never been to this part of the world, I came to Mexico carrying prejudices, assumptions, ideas and images in my head which belong to the world of imagination. This abstract world is often created through a variety of stereotypes which are imprinted onto our subconscious under influence of various media. Movies, especially from our early childhood, play the most important role in development of our imagination. I am sure that, in the imaginary world of an average European, Mexico is all about tequila, men with big mustaches, sombreros and vast deserts mottled with big, green cactuses.
Frankly, my own preconceptions were not far from those simple, childish scenes that I often imagined while reading comic books and watching Hollywood movies. Even though I did not expect Mexico to be a movie set of the final scene from The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, I did not know anything about its cities. Upon arriving in this huge country, I was surprised and amazed how developed, modern and urban it is. After visiting interesting cities like San Cristobal, Oaxaca and Guanajuato, I packed my bags heading west to the small city that lies directly on the sandy shores of Pacific Ocean – Puerto Vallarta.
Paradise on Earth
I arrived early in the morning while the light was still soft and mellow, falling gently on the mountains which surround Vallarta like a guarding fortress. When I stepped off the bus I still could not see the ocean, but suddenly, for a second or two, it felt like home. It was warm, the air was salty and I felt a pleasant breeze on my skin that reminded me of the Croatian summer wind we call Maestral. Though there were plenty of cabs waiting in front of the station, I caught a city bus which took me to my destination. The Penthouse Dolphin Dreams is a beautiful two floor penthouse situated in the heart of Nuevo Vallarta – a residential resort community about twenty minutes north of Puerto Vallarta, in the center point of the Banderas Bay.
The owner of the property was waiting for me when I arrived. From the first moment he made me feel very welcome and relaxed. Dana is an interesting man, who has traveled the world and lived throughout the United Kingdom. Eight years ago he decided to make his home here in what he calls, "Paradise on Earth." Even though he has adapted easily to this Mexican beach style of life, learning to surf and paddle board almost every day, he is still a typical English gentleman with a recognizable English sense of humor. After a few minutes in his company, I realized that those stereotypes about cold, distanced and reserved islanders definitely don't apply to him. As we were sitting in his large first floor open living room having a chat, I observed a whole variety of exotic birds.
For the first time in my life I saw pelicans sailing through the sky in perfect formation like a fleet of army planes. Later I learned that due to its geographical position, this area is a perfect location for bird watching as it is home to nearly 350 species in varied ecosystems and habitats. Dana informed me that this area used to be a swamp, which explains its rich fauna.
The vision of Nuevo Vallarta as a luxury and spacious hotel zone was a project initiated by the federal government over ten years ago. Now, Nuevo Vallarta is a residence for luxury villas and estates with tropical gardens lining the ocean canals, each with its own private docking pier.
Penthouse in the Sky.
After refreshing drinks and short informative chat, I decided to discover more about this amazing penthouse – my home during the next ten days. The position of the apartment is perfect, occupying the top two floors of the building which looms over Vallarta's famous Dolphin Adventure Park. Most of the first level is a spacious living room extending outward to a terrace for its entire length. It provides a spectacular open view to the canals, jungle plants, blue mountain outlines and beautiful sailboats resting quietly on the still water. Sitting there, I had a feeling of calm stillness as if I were contemplating someplace far away from civilization. The living room is connected to a functional, well equipped kitchen, making this whole space even more cavernous and commodious.
The design of the first level as a whole represents a modern and contemporary approach to style. A brave contrast of colors is apparent between the large white leather couch and the deep red walls. The earthy brown kitchen is aptly chosen to appease and balance those contrasts.
One of my favorite things – a small island across from the stove – is ideal for hanging around with friends and/or group cooking. Situated at the end of the hall are two cozy bedrooms with double beds. Painted in sky blue, with their own bathrooms and small balconies, they provide you with a beautiful southern view of tropical gardens dominated by tall, elegant palms.
Although I did not see half of it, I was already very excited about this place and eager to discover what was waiting for me on the higher level. We climbed the spiral, wooden stairs leading to the penthouse. I must say I was impressed with what I saw! The living space is almost completely organized on a large, wide terrace. The only closed units are the bedroom and bathroom situated on its southern side. This space is really something unique and exceptional. I thought the view from the lower living room was unbeatable, but I was definitely wrong. This was even more stunning. There is nothing above you but a clear blue sky. You can see the whole panoramic view covering 280 degrees.
The biggest asset of this apartment's orientation is the possibility of viewing an extraordinary attraction. Every day, just under your terrace, you can observe dolphins surfacing or watch a lions playing in the water or lying on the rocks enjoying the sun. I can't explain how happy and excited this made me feel; strong memories of my early childhood daydreaming about swimming with dolphins in the vast ocean. Everything was just magical! Even though this space is unquestionably decorated as modern and contemporary, it has that rustic touch with its selection of natural materials and decorative objects like wall lamps and handcrafted articles. The roof of the terrace, supported by rugged wooden pilings and dried palm leaves, creates an exotic and dreamy atmosphere. This area is all about hedonism: you can cook outside in the small kitchen, watch herons at night while lying in the big hot tub or take a nap on the massive, wooden hanging bed in the shadow of palm leaves.

Tourist Information Centre, Ljubljana
6 Reviews
6 Reviews
Favorite thing: There's a tourism information center located right on the other side of the Triple Bridge from Preseren Square, stop by and get a copy of the "Where? Ljubjlana Tourist Guide" which gives a nice overview of the city, it's history and what there is to do in Ljubljana. You can also look at their online guide at this website.
Favorite thing:
The Tourist Information Office is located across the Triple Bridge from Preseren Square on the corner by the Plecnik Colonnade. Here you can get hold off maps, tourist info, hotel info etc.
Open: 8am-7pm daily (1st Oct - 31st May), 8am-9pm daily (1st Jun - 30th Sep)
Fondest memory: The staff in the tourist office in Ljubljana were friendly and extremely helpful. As well as helping us decide on a good itinerary for our short stay and telling us the most interesting museums to visit, they helped us find a supermarket (we had been looking for one for most of the morning). In addition they all seemed to be multilingual and we heard them helping German, Spanish, and Italian visitors.
Favorite thing:
Just across Tromostovje (triple bridge) is a tourist information center.

We created Pandora to put the Music Genome Project directly in your hands
It's a new kind of radio –
stations that play only music you like
Tim Minchin
Dark Side won the Festival Director's Award and he was asked to bring the show to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, where it was a surprise success, winning Minchin a Perrier Comedy Award in the Best Newcomer category. A Dark Side album was released that year and he relocated to England with his wife to pursue comedy more professionally, as it had suddenly become far more profitable than any of his other aspirations. This sudden rise to fame was documented by his friend Rhian Skirving in her movie Rock n Roll Nerd (with a score by Jackson Jackson), and in return Minchin provided music for another of her documentaries, The Kindness of Strangers. Minchin's next shows, So Rock and Ready for This?, were even more successful. Both were turned into albums, although there was some controversy over So Rock's use of the N-word in a joke about racism, which he apologetically removed from his live show after realizing the offense it had unintentionally caused. Now it was acting and serious music that he dabbled in on the side, appearing in the Australian movie Two Fists, One Heart and composing music for theater, in between his television and radio appearances as a musical comedian. ~ Jody Macgregor

The 49ers' Donte Whitaker lowers his head and knocks the Saints' Pierre Thomas out cold with a brutal helmet-to-helmet hit and he's celebrated for making the defensive play of the playoffs last year.
The 49ers' Donte Whitaker lowers his head and knocks the Saints' Pierre Thomas out cold with a brutal helmet-to-helmet hit and he's celebrated for making the defensive play of the playoffs last year.
The NFL's position is once you become a runner, you are fair game. This is true even of QBs who leave the pocket. Yet Jay Cutler gets penalized for crossing the line of scrimmage — making him a runner by TWO different NFL rules — and Houston's Tim Dobbins, who at least kept his head up, was fined $30,000 for his helmet-to-helmet hit. Dobbins should have been fined, but so should have Whitaker.
Concussions will always be a problem if the NFL only cares about quarterbacks and doesn't enforce its rules consistently.
Cubs sit still
I trust Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer, but I also once trusted Andy MacPhail, who won two World Series as the Twins GM, yet did little besides cut salaries with the Cubs.
Epstein and Hoyer have so far acted as if the Cubs were a small-market team. They've added three top-50 prospects, plus promising first baseman Anthony Rizzo, but the Cubs also lost 100 games for the first time in 46 years.
The Blue Jays just added Jose Reyes, Josh Johnson, Mark Buehrle and Melky Cabrera. The Cubs have more money than Toronto. One day they'll have to spend it in a Blue Jays-style trade if they want to win.
Vick's legacy
Michael Vick was never a superstar, with only one season with a passer rating above 85 and none with even 3,400 yards passing. When Atlanta was the first team to beat the Packers at Lambeau in the playoffs, it was more about Brett Favre (the Packers had five turnovers) than Vick (13 of 25 for 117 yards). And although Vick has run for a QB record 5,526 yards, he was never "the NFL's greatest escape artist," as ESPN's Skip Bayless claims.
He's one of the NFL's most-sacked QBs. But neither is Vick a bum. The true read on Vick is that he's an OK quarterback with a huge arm who can run, a constant big-play threat, but he's not accurate enough or nimble enough against a pass rush to be consistent.

Philippines among the Highest Users of Trade Agreements in ASEAN
MANILA, Philippines - The Philippines was among the countries in ASEAN including Cambodia, Indonesia, and Thailand with high utilization rate of preferential trade agreements in 2010, latest data from the ASEAN Secretariat showed.
Philippine utilization rate rose to 41.15%, a marked increase from the 20% utilization rate in the 2008 survey of the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The increase showed that the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI)'s key program Doing Business in Free Trade Areas (DBFTA) program is gradually making an impact and encouraging more firms to use the FTAs.
"Clearly, capturing data on the utilization of our FTAs is an important step to assess the impact of our trade policies. Have we created more jobs? Are we making a dent on the social development goals of creating jobs and eradicating poverty?" said Trade and Industry Secretary Gregory L. Domingo.
The trade department is also working closely with different government agencies, including the National Sta-tistics Office (NSO) and the Bureau of Customs (BOC) to develop a harmonized system of capturing the country's data on the utilization of preferential trade agreements and address issues on improving the business environment.
Increasing FTA utilization is among the core strategies identified in the Philippine Export Development Plan (PEDP). Data from the National Statistics Office (NSO) showed that majority of Philippine exports went to these FTA markets as of November 2011: Japan, 18.44%; China, 12.62%; Korea, 4.57%, and countries in ASEAN such as Singapore, and Thailand, 13.02%.
DTI said they will conduct more in-depth sessions on preferential trade agreements to service the needs of our exporters. The business information sessions are also opportunities to get feedback from the ground and for the government to continuously review and strengthen capacity building programs for firm-level competitiveness.
For 2012, the DTI targets 100 information education sessions with various industries across the country. …

Facebook considers lifting underage banComment on this story
London - Facebook is considering lifting a ban on children using its site - despite fears it could put youngsters at risk of bullying or grooming by sexual predators.
The site, which has 900million active members worldwide, does not allow under-13s to join.
But the company's head of policy in Britain, Simon Milner, said restrictions may be eased as many younger children already use the social network by lying about their ages.
He added: "Some seem to be doing it with their parents' permission and help. We have a strict under-13 rule because of legal issues in America. We apply the same rule all over the world.
"But actually a lot of parents are not only happy that their kids are on it, but they are helping them be on it." - Daily Mail

EU Eases Myanmar Sanctions After Political Prisoners Freed
The European Union lifted travel restrictions on Myanmar's top leaders after they freed political prisoners, easing some sanctions before an April by-election in which Aung San Suu Kyi will participate.
Visa bans on the country's leadership will be suspended as a "first step" in response to "the remarkable program of political reform," EU foreign ministers said after a meeting in Brussels yesterday. "The EU considers that the recent release of a substantial number of political prisoners marks a crucial step forward."
The move allows President Thein Sein, two vice presidents, Cabinet members and speakers of the two houses of parliament to obtain visas to Europe, the ministers said in a statement, adding they would consider lifting other restrictions in April. The EU has banned weapons sales, frozen assets and blocked imports of minerals since first imposing sanctions in 1996.
Freeing political prisoners has been a primary demand of U.S. and European policy makers who imposed sanctions on Myanmar, which ended more than five decades of military rule with an election in 2010. Since then, Thein Sein has released dissidents, eased media restrictions and sought peace with ethnic rebels.
Hillary Clinton, who last month made the first trip to Myanmar by a secretary of state since 1955, moved to upgrade diplomatic relations after hundreds of prisoners were freed on Jan. 13. U.S. Senators John McCain, Joseph Lieberman and Mitch McConnell visited the country this month.
'Increasingly Possible'
"If you had asked me during my last visit here whether I could envision the Congress lifting all sanctions against this country, I would have said that such a scenario seemed faint and distant," McCain told reporters in Yangon, the former capital, on Jan. 22. "Today, however, it appears increasingly possible."
The process of easing U.S. sanctions in place since 1988 should begin after an assessment of the April 1 by-election, McCain said. Various congressional acts and presidential orders ban imports, restrict money transfers, curb aid money, freeze assets and target jewelry with gemstones originating in Myanmar.
Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy party, which boycotted the 2010 election, will contest by-elections for 48 seats in the 664-seat Parliament on April 1. She asked for the visa bans to be lifted, according to an EU official who asked to remain unidentified because the talks were private.
The EU's foreign-policy chief, Cathy Ashton, said before the meeting that ministers have been "working closely" with Suu Kyi and that she will visit Myanmar, probably in April.
Myanmar's "government has taken important measures towards the freeing of political prisoners and holding free elections and we should recognize that," U.K. Foreign Secretary William Hague, who visited Myanmar earlier this month, said before the meeting in Brussels yesterday.

CHICAGO — Teens are the future of our Democracy. As they grow up to be voters, it is important that they be prepared to be smart consumers of information.
San Antonio teens received the training that will help them along that road, thanks to the News Know-how program offered by the San Antonio Public Library's Teen Services Department at the Central Library, in partnership with the American Library Association and the Open Society Foundations.
CHICAGO - America is rich in opinions. This is especially true when it comes to its politics.
Between newspaper and magazine columns and television and radio commentary, it is always easy to find pundits from both ends of the political spectrum freely airing their views on any number of subjects.
But although opinion pieces leave plenty of room for flaunting biases, that doesn't excuse flouting the facts. And the reader must still determine whether opinions have a basis in fact - and whether the writer presents them with integrity and credibility.

By incorporating the Live MOS sensor from its award winning OM-D camera in the new PEN Lite, or E-PL5, Olympus has once again raised the bar when it comes to the performance expected of a compact system camera. As if this wasn't enough, the new 16.1 megapixel sensor has been paired with another new OM-D component in the TruePic VI image processor. This ensures that the E-PL5 can claim to deliver a lightning fast auto focus comparable to that of Olympus' more expensive flagship model.
Featuring a stunning compact design with an all-metal finish and interchangeable removable grip, the true beauty with the PEN Lite E-PL5 however is that it remains as easy to use as in its previous iterations. There's a tilting touch sensitive back screen for one, allowing for intuitive operation, with key functions literally falling at your fingertips.
Another big advantage over competing compact system cameras remains the PEN Lite's built-in image stabilisation, which means that whatever lens is attached, you're protected from the possible blurring effects of camera shake.
Further streamlining the image sharing process is a direct wireless link to social media and smartphone connectivity, whilst no fewer than 12 digital effects in the shape of Olympus' innovative Art Filters ensure that there are fewer barriers than ever to creating stunning imagery in-camera.
Inspired by the head turning original PEN series designed by Yoshihisa Maitani, which sold over 17 million units worldwide, and aimed at fans of fuss free photography, the diminutive E-PL5 furthers the PEN ethos of offering super image quality and unlimited creative freedom with no associated hassle.
While the cool design of the E-PL5 delivers the eye-catching finish that camera connoisseurs expect, it is all systems go in terms of speed and delivery of images.
The PEN Lite E-PL5 comes equipped with FAST AF, powered by the latest generation TruePic VI image processor as found in the lightning quick OM-D E-M5, thereby boosting auto focus performance to the level of that expected of a semi professional camera. This has also prompted a boost in resolution to 16.1 megapixels in order to guarantee exceptional stills, as well as Full HD movies, with great results even in low light, as light sensitivity now reaches all the way to ISO25600.
What's more, 3D tracking has allowed for improved moving object tracking, while a Live Bulb/Live Time feature can update the Live View image on the rear panel monitor at pre-set intervals during long exposures.
Speaking of rear panel monitors, the E-PL5's 3-inch, high 460,000 dot resolution LCD screen can not only be tilted to easier allow for otherwise awkward low or high angle shooting when it comes to both stills and video, it can also be flipped around to face the photographer to allow for easier self portraiture. This is a greater degree of creative flexibility than has been provided on a PEN camera to date.
Ever wanted to link your camera with your smartphone? Now you can. Another major plus on the latest generation PEN Lite is FlashAir™ compatibility, and the free app that allows users to upload pictures to their favourite social network via the familiar interface on their smartphone. There are free iOS and Android software downloads for editing and sharing images via social networks with the aid of your smartphone and/or computer.
In order to achieve results like the professionals, and with the minimum of effort, the E-PL5 like the E-PL3, E-PL2 and E-PL1 before it once again features the handholding benefits of Olympus' trademark Live Guide. This allows photographers to watch in real time the results of changing functions and settings, such as exposure time and aperture, before even taking a shot.
By simply moving an onscreen slider up or down and viewing the transformation to the image in real time, PEN Lite users are quickly able to master those little settings that make all the difference in terms of more professional looking shots – such as motion and background blur, colour intensity, lighting mood and brightness.
Live Guide can be accessed in Full HD movie, still and P/A/S/M modes. For those who prefer to take control, 'My set' settings are also assignable to any symbol on the mode dial on the PEN Lite E-PL5.
The amount of Art Filters provided by the PEN Lite has been increased when compared to its predecessor. Eye catching effects can be applied to movies as well as stills, and these can be tested in real time on the LCD before being applied at the point the shot is captured. A further innovation this time around is the ability in HD Movie Mode to blend from one Art Filter effect to another, using the Art Fade function.
The 12 new Art Filters in HD movie and stills modes include the new Watercolour, which can be combined with the likes of the new Monochrome setting. Art Filter Bracketing is also offered, to enable different multiple effects to be applied to the same subject with one squeeze of the shutter release button. HDR Bracketing meanwhile allows for capturing one subject with five different exposures, so you'll never be stuck for creative choice.
The PEN Lite E-PL5 features 1080 Full HD stereo movie recording in the MOV format, with the options of watching footage back either on Full HD TV or your PC's monitor. Either way, the results will look great as, whether shooting video or 16.1 megapixel photos, the PEN Lite is designed to deliver a consistently high performance. Naturally the E-PL5 features HDMI output, so it can be hooked up directly to that HDTV.
The latest generation of PEN Lite benefits from the incorporation of the latest generation image processor, the TruePic VI engine. Needless to say this addition makes the camera all-round faster and more responsive, providing a faster recovery time and excellent picture quality. A case in point: up to eight frames per second (8fps) high speed sequential shooting is offered to users of the E-PL5.
As with its acclaimed predecessor, the E-PL5 comes with the sculpted and near silent M.ZUIKO DIGITAL 14-42mm 1:3.5-5.6 II R lens, providing a versatile equivalent of 28-84mm in 35mm film terms. This lens, one of 26 directly compatible Micro Four Thirds lenses available to E-PL5 users, has the advantage of not only providing faster focusing, but also preventing the audible whirr of the lens' mechanics that can otherwise ruin the audio track of your home movies. In addition, 27 Four Thirds lenses and more than 500 other lenses can be used with the E-PL5 with the aid of an adapter.
Additionally, with up to ISO25600 light sensitivity (up from the E-PL3's ISO12800) shooting in lower light conditions without flash in order to achieve more naturalistic results is eminently possible.
Another advantage of the Olympus Micro Four Thirds PEN system is that its lenses are lighter than rivals', as they don't require built in 'IS' of their own. What's more the supplied lens also features a swappable decorative ring, so you can match the lens to the body colour of the PEN camera you've chosen.
The carry and shoot anywhere E-PL5 further takes the worry out of photography and offers almost unlimited memory expansion possibilities by providing compatibility with the new SDXC removable media card format.
This affords high storage capacities of up to a gargantuan 2TB to ensure photographers don't run out of space for those many thousands of photos and videos at an inopportune moment – thereby making the E-PL5 as 'future proof' as possible. Wireless transfer is also possible due to compatibility with (optional) Eye-Fi media cards.
The Olympus PEN Lite E-PL5 is available in black, white or silver.
Optional extras include a super slim 15mm 1:8.0 Body Cap lens. When your regular lens is detached the Body Cap allows photographers to shoot spontaneously and benefit from a built-in barrier against dust. If it's waterproofing you need for diving and snorkelling, the PEN Lite is uniquely compatible with the optional PT-EP10 housing that's watertight down to fully 45 metres. The housing will be available from the end of November 2012.
The Olympus PEN Lite E-PL5 is available in the following configurations:
Olympus E-PL5 body (black)
M.ZUIKO Digital 14 -42mm II R lens (black)

As a amateur, Ron Marsh won 33 of 35 contests.
It was falsely reported for years that he had lost a March 11, 1968 fight down in Argentina to Gregorio Peralta, but Marsh insisted that someone fought Peralta under his name, as he had never left the U.S. [1] Minnesota Boxing Commission records (where Marsh and manager, Verne Gagne, were licensed) also corroborate this story, not showing any such fight on file for Marsh from 1968.
Marsh died aged 70, in Overland Park, Kansas, where he had been a schoolteacher for 30 years. [2]

Bashing North up the US Pacific Coast
I'm planning to motor from San Francisco to Seattle this Spring/Summer. Does anyone have suggestions on weather sites other than Passage Weather and NOAA(?) AND what are the best months for this venture? I know the storms, bars, and breaking seas are outright dangerous. I am on a 51 foot, 50,000 pound Fraser sailboat with a 120 Hp auxilliary.

Re: Bashing North up the US Pacific Coast
Since that is an uphill trip (fighting current and wind generally) I would guess later the better at least for the northern portion of the trip. Winds are lightest and the weather is the best starting in July and on into Sept. Going earlier you'll just have to be more careful and plan on it taking longer, possibly having to duck in to avoid a storm, etc.
Fraser built a nice boat.
Re: Bashing North up the US Pacific Coast
Hawaii might be a nice stop "on the way". It would not be quite so much of a just kidding if you were coming back from a Baja Bash.
Re: Bashing North up the US Pacific Coast
You should be far enough offshore that the World Wide Web is out of the question. Use a SSB for weatherfax and a sat phone to get grib files through email.
Summer would be better than spring, but it will be a slog.
Re: Bashing North up the US Pacific Coast
A Friend of mine did that trip a couple years ago. they tacked out away from the coast at night and toward the coast during day. They did it during the winter and had some pretty rough conditions. These are some pretty rugged sailors, capable for sure. they would get 100 or more miles from shore during the night which i felt was a really smart way of doing it.
Last week in July thru august is the what people usually do when they want the best chance of decent conditions.
Re: Bashing North up the US Pacific Coast
A family friend who built a Maple Leaf 42 brought it back from Mexico by harbour hopping the whole coast. He claimed he did it the whole way from San Francisco in day trips.
Re: Bashing North up the US Pacific Coast
Fraser 51! I remember looking at one on Yacht World a few years back. It had a washer/dryer in it. IIRC, only three were made.
Re: Bashing North up the US Pacific Coast
Re: Bashing North up the US Pacific Coast
WHile I have not down that slog, The Ca to Hawaii to the NW is a common route vs straight up the coast. I could also see an earlier trip in the year, as at least you could then have some sw oriented winds so you would be going down wind. Altho the strength would be higher than in the summer. But then, you are literally going against a lot of north to nw winds, so all head winds!
Not sure what to say, higher winds from the south earlier in the year, or light from the north later.....better weather later too.......

While the Sega Saturn may not have a strong future ahead of it, the system is by no means dead for RPG fans. Shining Force III, published by Sega of America, has now hit store shelves. The one-disc strategy RPG boasts fully polygonal environments, terrain-based advantages, and other modern strategy refinements, but keeps the same charm and basic feel of previous Shining Force titles. The game should be available at most major video game retailers.
