Signs and Wonders 08.20
The Singer graduates. Calvin Miller's book The Singer, first published in 1975, had a quiet but significant impact on a generation of Christians who had artistic sensibilities. The book, the first of a trilogy, tells the story of Christ allegorically as a "singer whose song could not be silenced." I discovered the book in 1978 and it had a profound impact on my life, and I had the pleasure of telling Miller that a couple of years ago. He received my thanks with the practiced grace of someone who has probably heard that thousands of times. Indeed, he probably had, as Miller's books, though never bestsellers, were steady-sellers. Over the past 35 years, The Singer alone sold more than a million copies. His 40 other books likely sold a million more. But, alas, Miller sings no more on this earth. He died yesterday of heart failure.
Obama 2016. The documentary Obama 2016 did not make a huge splash when it was released on July 13, but that splash has rippled. The film has now brought in more than $2 million at the box office, not nearly enough to recover all the money invested in it, but a respectable showing for a documentary in theatrical release that has gone virtually unnoticed by the mainstream media. The movie is based on Dinesh D'Souza's book The Roots of Obama's Rage. According to Box Office Mojo, the movie is now the 70th highest grossing documentary of all time, and the 12th largest grossing political documentary. The producers tell me that they hope to keep the movie in theatres until Election Day.
Talking trash. Want to know where the economy's going? Check the local landfill. Economist Michael McDonough says the amount of trash we generate is directly related to the gross domestic product, and he also says that because the amount of trash headed for the dumpster is down, that may be where our economy is headed. "If you buy a couch, you might be throwing out an old couch," he told Marketplace. "If you go out to McDonald's and you buy something, you're going to throw something out. So the fact that it is as weak as it is right now means something's wrong in the economy, potentially, in the underlying economy." So McDonough gets data on train cars full of trash from the railroad companies, and he charts it against GDP. He finds a very close correlation. And more to the point here: In the past year, the trash market has crashed to levels we haven't seen since 2008. Does that mean we're facing another recession? McDonough won't say so, but the data he's compiled surely suggest that.
More on the FRC shooting. I've seen a lot of discussion about how little coverage the mainstream media gave to the shooting at the Family Research Council. Former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer tweeted it was "amazing how little press the politically motivated shooting at FRC has received. If other way around, what a feeding frenzy." Tim Graham of the Media Research Center said that on the night of the shooting, "NBC's Brian Williams had 17 seconds for the FRC violence, but 205 seconds for Chelsea Clinton's story on baby elephants." Ironically, one reason for the media downplaying it is the fact that the FRC itself has been measured and responsible in its approach. FRC President Tony Perkins has made a few media appearances, but he hasn't been "pimping" this story for personal gain the way (to cite just one example) Al Sharpton did the Trayvon Martin story, or Michael Bloomberg did the Aurora shooting story. Also, no one (thank God) died at FRC headquarters, and that-like it or not-does matter to the media and the way they cover stories. All in all, I must say "kudos" to Tony Perkins, to the FRC, and especially to Leo Johnson, the building manager who was wounded disarming the alleged shooter. They have all behaved admirably in the face of adversity and scrutiny.

Developer GRIN had their work cut out for them in created Weapons of Fate. They had to recreate the action of curving your bullets, as seen in the movie, Wanted, without making the game far too easy. Looking at what they've accomplished here, it still looks far too easy. I was hoping for something along the lines of what was done in Heavenly Sword for the PlayStation 3, where you fired an arrow and then actually controlled their movement. Instead, this looks far too fire and forget for my tastes. Meh.

Apes & Androids: Flamboyant Space Opera
Wednesday's Pick
- Song: "Hot Kathy"
- Artist: Apes & Androids
- CD: Blood Moon
- Genre: Rock
"Hot Kathy," a unique bit of flamboyant space opera from the New York band Apes & Androids, blends classic-rock influences (David Bowie, Queen) with the blips and bleeps of 8-bit video games, resulting in a giddy collage of sound. Nestled comfortably between sincerity and irony, Apes & Androids' genre-bending music flirts with slinky party girls and androgynous hipsters alike.
A sweetly bombastic journey, "Hot Kathy" starts softly, as lead singers David Tobias and Brian Jacobs ramble about the woman in question. "Am I this lonely?" they ask. But could Apes & Androids really be lonely in a bizarre dimension defined by its glitter, synths, and fist-pumping? Suddenly, swinging, come-hither horns set up a multilayered tribal breakdown, as if the band is jamming the "start" button on a modern-day Freddie Mercury revival. Somewhere in the pounding of drums, falsetto croons, and wailing guitars — and a cowbell, naturally — a new star of glam-rock is born.

According to Equmen, what we really need are briefs that hold and lift our gluteal folds (buttocks, to you, sir) and cocoon our manhoods in a "power pouch" where they're kept safely out of the way while we throw javelins, run around race tracks and engage in other athletic pursuits. Which, let's face it, is much more than your typical jockstrap claims to do.
Perhaps it was just a matter of time before Equmen - which launched its range of posture-improving, gut-reducing, performance-enhancing long-sleeved Ts, vests and T-shirts last year - should bust out into super briefs. And with unique technology such as the seamless construction and moisture-wicking, breathable mesh fabric, these briefs are comfortable, neat and cool enough to wear under the closest-fitting wool trousers.

Run game makes OSU's pass attack more lethal
With Brandon Weeden and Justin Blackmon committed to returning in 2011, the plan was to keep much of Dana Holgorsen's spread offense intact.
Kept, too, was an often overlooked page – well, cocktail napkin – from Holgorsen's private play-calling collection: the not-so-spread power diamond formation.
And we've seen it more and more in recent weeks, with the Cowboys packing some pop into their run game – while also creating one-on-one opportunities for Blackmon – utilizing the three-back, heavy-set look drawn up by Holgorsen during a Grand Lake retreat before last season.
"It gives us another phase or another part of our game," said Cowboys coach Mike Gundy, "and it's a simple way for a quarterback to tell whether he should attack the defense with the run or the pass."
Saturday against Baylor, the Pokes punished the Bears on the ground, going for a two-year rushing high of 327 yards, averaging 12.1 yards per carry.
Not all that production sprung from the diamond, but a chunk did, along with two fade throws from Weeden to Blackmon for touchdowns.
"It's just something we thought we could do against them," said Cowboys offensive coordinator Todd Monken, who inherited the formation from Holgorsen. "We have probably a few more things we could have done out of it."
The diamond, which this season typically uses fullbacks Kye Staley and David Paulsen along with either Joseph Randle or Jeremy Smith, never seemed to jibe with Holgorsen's wide-open approach. Yet with a still-developing wide receiver corps, Holgorsen was sharp to find ways to best employ Kendall Hunter.
For these Cowboys, and their opponents, it's an added look.
And added versatility.
"We have Blackmon as a threat, and they might double team him," Staley said, "so that opens up a lot of options. I just feel like we take advantage of it whenever we get a chance to run it."
OSU remains strongly committed to the spread and to filling the air with Weeden darts. The Cowboys rank fourth nationally in passing offense. Still, despite a league-low 271 run attempts, they rank sixth in the Big 12 in rushing per game (181.9). No one averages more per carry (5.4) than the Cowboys and their 25 rushing touchdowns are the league's most, by far.
Randle averages 105.2 rushing yards per game and his 16 rushing TDs are seven more any other running back in the league.
The fit would seem more comfortable for Monken, who maintains roots in the power run game from his time at LSU and in the NFL. Offensive line coach Joe Wickline, credited by Holgorsen for placing his major stamp on the diamond, remains a strong influence on the Cowboys attack.
Still, with so many weapons at his disposal, Monken hesitates to overdo it with the diamond, "because you end up taking some of your skill guys off the field," he said.
And yet, a major benefit of the formation is the freedom it allows Weeden and Blackmon near the goal line. While teams regularly commit two and even three defenders to bracketing Blackmon, OSU's jumbo package typically forces more men into the box, leaving Blackmon in single coverage outside.
That's what happened on Saturday, with Weeden twice switching from a called run play to the fade to Blackmon.
"Every one I've ever thrown to him is a called run play," Weeden said, "and I just kind of flash it out there to him and then throw it up. We're on the same page."
The page, er, cocktail napkin, is the same, too.

Interestingly, due to large quanities of snow this year, Olallie and Frog Lakes won't be stocked this year, according to the ODFW. HOWEVER, all the trout destined for Olallie and Frog Lakes have been planted in another lake. Clear Lake. That's right. Clear Lake has had it's normal share of trout put in plus all the fish that were slated for Frog and Olallie. Three lake's worth of fish in one Lake!
The biggest Rainbow trout grown in Oregon by the ODFW are from the Oakspring's Hatchery. The BROODER trout from Oaksprings are incredible. They average perhaps 7 to 8 pounds each. Also, numerous brooder Rainbows up to 20 pounds(that's right, TWENTY POUNDS!!!) are not uncommon. So Rainbow Trout up to 20 pounds are in Clear Lake now, and have been since May. One of the ODFW people at Oaksprings told me this a few weeks ago. I have know about the huge trout in Clear, Frog, Olallie and RockSpring's for years. Hope this info is helpful.

I see the noses are about to shoot themselves in the foot again to make things more interesting! Grasping failure from the jaws of success. They are moving closer to emulating our cr@p goal difference. And also if they don't watch out they will never reach our 'superb' number of 7 wins out of 27 games. Let's be honest it's rubbish from both of us isn't it? And add Albion and Wolves to the mix....blimey I'm off to self harm :-)Hold on to your hats boys!UTV
It's unbelievable but true.I would swap managers any time though. I think McLeish understands what you have to do to avoid relegation but doesn't have the players to do so, while Villa have the resources but all you ever hear Houllier talking about is ABR (anything but relegation).I'd like to see both of us stay up, but it's not looking good.
We'll both stay up Grah...not because Villa or Blues are that good, but because Wolves and 'Olbion are worse...and add Blackpool and Wigan to the mix. Sure there are enough other teams going to shoot themselves in the foot first3-0 up and don't win ???

Oklahoma State football: Quinn Sharp has put missed field goal vs. Iowa State in the past
STILLWATER — Bring up last season's Iowa State game to Quinn Sharp, and a look of disappointment immediately crosses his face.
There's a difference, though, between being disappointed and dwelling.
Of course, Sharp still wishes he would have made the 37-yard field goal attempt late in regulation that likely would have given Oklahoma State the victory over the Cyclones — and a spot in the national championship game. In fact, he still thinks the ball did sneak just inside the right upright. Plenty of Cowboy supporters think it did, too, including coach Mike Gundy's oldest son, Gavin, who often proclaims to Dad that the kick was good.
But Sharp, simply, has moved on.
"The kick comes back (when someone says "Iowa State"), just like everybody expects," Sharp said. "But it's one of those things — I've looked at it, I've thought about it, but it's in the past.
"You can't let something like that linger on you, because it will affect you the rest of your way, and I don't want to hinder the team with something like that."
The results certainly show Sharp has put that kick behind him. He made the game-winning field goal in overtime of the Fiesta Bowl to cap the best season in OSU history. And he's continued to be one of the Cowboys' top weapons in 2012, most recently picking up the Big 12's Special Teams Player of the Week award after he was arguably Oklahoma State's MVP against Kansas.
How exactly did Sharp get over a miss that could have kept haunting him?
In the hours and days that followed that game, he leaned on support of teammates, as well as his parents and friends back home in Mansfield, Texas. He's one of the players who on a regular basis sees Stillwater hypnotherapist Paige Wacker, who focuses on mental performance training and teaching athletes how to visualize success.
And he also received encouraging phone calls and messages from the community of college kickers and punters across the country, including Oklahoma's Tress Way, Georgia's Blair Walsh (now of the Minnesota Vikings), Purdue's Carson Wiggs (now an NFL free agent).
The general message was simple — "keep your head up."
"That was nice for them to kind of reach out and just tell me that they were there," Sharp said. "That I had been doing good the whole year, and it was just one of those kicks that didn't go my way that day."
Sharp is aware that kickers and specialists are often viewed as a unique breed of football player. Gundy even half-jokes that he never talks to those players, because they think, prepare and practice differently.
But the job creates a bond between college kickers, usually starting when they begin attending the same camps as high schoolers. Sharp describes those workouts as a combination of jokes and fun, and intense competition. Then they check in with each other periodically throughout the season, especially during those low points while fulfilling a sometimes thankless and isolated role on the team.
Way, who has known Sharp since they were juniors in high school, certainly knows how it feels. In 2009, Way made just 1 of his 6 field goal attempts, including three misses in a 10-3 loss to Nebraska.
"The reason I called him (after the Iowa State loss) is that we're pretty tight," Way said. "He's one incredible kicker and punter, so it's been fun competing against him in the same conference, but we actually knew each other before either one of us had an offer."
From those conversations, Sharp was reminded to get back to his routine, relax, trust himself and to not over-think things. And soon, his mind was back in the right spot.
The Fiesta Bowl, of course, gave Sharp a quick chance at redemption. He called that opportunity "very rewarding." But Sharp also admitted it was "hard to watch" Stanford kicker Jordan Williamson miss the potential game-winner from 35 yards out as time expired in regulation and a 43-yarder in overtime.
Sharp's been there. Most kickers have.
That positive end to last season has carried over to 2012, where the reigning Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Year has continued to shine. Sharp is averaging 47.5 yards per punt, including two that went more than 70 yards last week against Kansas. He's boomed 31 touchbacks on 37 kickoffs. He's made 9 of his 12 field goal attempts, including a career-long 51-yarder against Louisiana-Lafayette.
And he had his best all-around game of the season — and perhaps his career — against the Jayhawks, averaging 53 yards per punt, connecting on 2-of-3 field goals (49 and 42 yards) and tallying four touchbacks on five kickoffs. He also made potentially a touchdown-saving tackle on a kickoff return and all but sealed the Cowboy victory when he drew a roughing- the-kicker penalty on a punt that gave OSU a first down late in the fourth quarter.
"It definitely shows Quinn does have a lot of resilience," Cowboys linebacker Alex Elkins said, "because he bounced back, had a very short memory from (the ISU game). But that's how you've got to be as a player on this team. You can't remember things like that. You can't remember the losses.
"If you are going to remember anything, you've got to remember the pain you felt and know that you don't want to feel that again."
So, Sharp still feels disappointment when thinking back to that November night in Ames.
But almost 11 months later, he's mentally come to terms with the miss, with the help of his kicking fraternity buddies, his family and teammates and, ultimately, his own mind.
"To be great, to be successful," Sharp said, "you have to train yourself to let go and just tell yourself there's going to be another opportunity, and I have to capitalize."

Coming of Age: Life/Time/History
A symposium in celebration of Peter Seixas' career, in anticipation of his retirement
12 March 2016, 9:00 am - 3:15 pm
Peter Wall Institute, UBC, Vancouver BC
"Coming of Age: Life/Time/History" alludes to an intersection between life course and history, an intersection that can be interpreted in many ways. The title challenges speakers to examine people's lives, including their own, in relation to the histories they confront and construct, in the context of the historical moment in which they find themselves. Participants include senior, international scholars who have been influential in Peter's career and a roughly equal number of younger scholars who worked with him as graduate students.
For a full symposium program, please click here.
There is no cost to attend, but space is limited, so advance registration is necessary through Ulrike Spitzer.
You are also welcome to attend the retirement dinner party at Sage Bistro in the evening:
To register, please visit this link to pay by credit card or contact Ulrike Spitzer to pay by cheque.

New Possibilities for the Past: Shaping History Education in Canada
Penney Clark (ed.)
The place of history in school curricula has sparked heated debate in Canada. Is Canadian history dead? Who killed it? Should history be put in the service of nation? Can any history be truly inclusive?
In this volume, museum educators, secondary school teachers, and leading and emerging historians and history educators define a new agenda for history education research by shifting the focus from content to method, from what should be included in narratives about the past to how to think about and teach history. They document the state of history education theory, research, and practice and consider the implications of research for classrooms from kindergarten to graduate school and in other contexts, including museums, virtual environments, and public institutional settings. They also consider the perspectives of indigenous peoples, the citizens of Quebec, and advocates of citizenship education.
Reflecting current critical engagement among historians, educators, and the Canadian public, New Possibilities for the Past sets a comprehensive research agenda both to help students at all levels learn about the past, and, more importantly, to understand how we construct history from its infinite possibilities.

My husband picked this fragrance out for me, and I've worn it ever since. The only bummer is that it is not sold in the major department stores any longer. So, I have to order it on line or I don't have the frangrance any longer. It stays with me and I am complimented on the scent almost every day by strangers and those who know my scent. It's a nice lovely feeling.

This is my signature fragrance. I'm not able to find it in a bottle, so I had to buy 10 vials. I use it daily so it'll be interesting to see how long it lasts from a vial rather than a spray. I am happy I found it! Your company was excellent in shipping time.

History and Class Consciousness
My trip to Świdnica left me much to ponder. Many ordinary people, I thought, were either uncomprehending of the dimensions of the economic transformation, or else hysterical about them. My old friend Lityński, on the other hand, seemed a bit too sanguine. Further, I didn't think he realized that common ignorance and fear represented a profound problem both for economic reform and for democracy, a problem that had to be addressed politically. He seemed to think that the government's reform package would prevail because it was rational, a kind of enlightenment prejudice. It also appeared that he and the first Solidarity government were overlooking the emergence of a new class structure and class consciousness in democratizing Poland. They were simply ignoring the crystallization of distinct and competing interests in the society they were transforming.
Class conflict was becoming a normal part of societal life in Poland,

It was the perfect place to stay in New York not only while awaiting the hurricane. The flat was so beautiful and perfectly equipped and David and Jacqui did their best, to let us feel very welcome.
We loved staying at this beautiful apartment in Brooklyn. It's everything you see on the pictures. We were a group of five and found it very comfortable. We used the kitchen a lot, it was a great place to hang out after a busy day. David and Jacqui were lovely hosts, very helpful and friendly. Their friend even helped us order pizza. Overall great experience!
The two hosts are absolute professionals, this personally and very charming! They have thought of everything, were always helpful and had lots of good advice at hand. The apartment is very well equipped and of high quality, have even included us for a BBQ grill and utensils for a large family everything was available! And the charm to have once lived in a real, lovingly restored brownstone, is a unique New York experience! The neighborhood is beautiful and very quiet. The subway, there were only two blocks away and even the supermarket was right there. Total absolute and recommended in every way!
Die beiden sind absolute Gastgeber-Profis, dabei persönlich und sehr charmant! Sie haben einfach an alles gedacht, waren stets hilfsbereit und hatten viele gute Tipps parat. Die Wohnung ist sehr gut und hochwertig ausgestattet, sogar für ein BBQ hätte uns inklusive Grill und Geschirr für eine Großfamilie alles zur Verfügung gestanden! Und der Charme, einmal in einem echten, liebevoll restaurierten Brownstone-Haus gewohnt zu haben, ist ein einmaliges New York-Erlebnis! Die Nachbarschaft ist wunderschön und sehr ruhig. Zur Subway waren es nur zwei Blocks und auch der Supermarkt lag direkt dort. Insgesamt absolut und in jeder Hinsicht zu empfehlen!
Just returned from a lovely week.The apartment is beautifully furnished and has everything!Just a few minutes walk from the metro,a welcome haven after a busy day in the City!Jacqui and David were delightful hosts too. A great find!
Great apartment, nice landlord come back like
Tolles Appartment ,nette Vermieter ,kommen gerne wieder
We have spent a wonderful time in NY, the apartment is really lovely and our hosts were Giacomo met with us.
Hemos pasado unos días maravillosos en NY, el apartamento es realmente encantador y nuestros anfitriones fueron amabilísimos con nosotras.
A perfect place to stay! Nice apartment with a garden. Next to the subway. In a neighborhood that was lively and safe! We loved staying here. Make sure you also take a day to visit Brooklyn! The host is living on the top floor of the house and is very friendly. He is there is you need advice or help. I recommend this apartment,t to everyone!!
A brilliant apartment. Cosy and warm. Much better and cheaper than hotell.
Incredible flat! Felt like our own home, couldn't recommended this place enough!
We love Brooklyn! Close to all the major sights in Manhattan (20 minutes to Midtown) but a world on ist own with beautiful brownstones, little gardens and friendly people. There are plenty of bars and restaurants with a relaxed atmosphere and multicultural clientele. Strolling through the streets you find little "garage antique markets" or ateliers with young artists.
The apartment is amazing. Jacqui and David created a cosy space with a lot of fancy details. Coming back to the apartment after a long sightseeing day always felt like "coming home". Our hosts gave us usefull recommendations and we really enjoyed their warm hospitality. Jacqui and David are like Brooklyn: You just have to love them :o)

Could You Have Fun at a Wedding Without Alcohol?
I recently attended a friend's wedding in France. Both the bride and groom originally come from Turkey, so they followed many of the Turkish wedding traditions. On the Thursday before the wedding, they held a big party to prepare the bride, which felt almost like a wedding itself! There was a DJ, dancing, and food, but one thing was noticeably missing: alcohol. The hosts and many of the guests were Muslim, so it's not customary for them to to have alcohol at parties.
Without a glass of champagne, it definitely took an extra effort to mingle with strangers or get out on the dance floor, but I did appreciate the lack of hangover the next day.
The bride and groom did however provide alcohol at the wedding, where the Raki was flowing all night (for those who wanted it). Seemed like a good compromise to me!

First Quantum Minerals Limited (FQM) will this year start constructing a US$230m (KR1.22bn) power line from Lusaka to Solwezi for its latest mine, Sentinel at Kalumbila. The 330 kilovolts transmission line would cover a distance of about 400 kilometres. The power line would tap power from the Tata / ZESCO owned 120 megawatts Itezhi-tezhi hydro-power station currently under construction. FQM is negotiating with ZESCO to agree construction arrangements.
FQM is investing more than $2 billion in Sentinel Mine which will be Africa's biggest copper mine with a capacity to produce more than 500, 000 tonnes of copper concentrates per year. The mine will be fully operational in the later part of 2014. It says the $250m investment in the power will be easily recovered under five years.
The investment will effectively make Sentinel and Kulumbila self sufficient. Good for them, they won't have to worry about the hapless ZESCO. It's a fascinating arrangement because ZESCO will more or less be contracted to do the grid but ownership of transmission will rest with FQM. Perhaps liberalisation is happening!
The Itezhi-tezhi power project involves the development, construction, operation, and maintenance of a 120 MW base-load hydro power plant at the Itezhi-tezhi dam on the Kafue River. The project is being developed under a 25-year concession by ITPC, a special purpose joint venture formed in 2007 to construct, own and manage the project. ITPC is owned 50% by ZESCO and 50% by Tata Africa Holdings Ltd. (TAHL), which signed a memorandum of understanding in 2006 to develop the project. At the end of the concession period, the power station will revert to the GRZ. All ITPC power will be sold to ZESCO under a long term take-or-pay Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). ZESCO will buy power from ITPC and transmit it through the new transmission line to the national grid. As will FQM if they build the transmission line.[view whole blog post ]

Sorry sentence: Bradley Manning may serve only seven more years
Bradley Manning says he's sorry he leaked classified documents, jeopardizing national security. The usual response to statements of contrition is this: He's just sorry he got convicted.
Our take is that Bradley Manning is just sorry. Period. He's a sorry individual. He was a sorry soldier and sorry excuse for a "patriot" who may spend only 7-8 years in prison for what did.
That's 7-8 years for leaking 750,000 pages of classified information, the biggest such leak in history. Manning got off lightly, but his supporters believe even one minute in the brig is a minute too many. He could have faced life in prison, but a judicial ruling removed the most serious charge against him. Prosecutors asked for 60 years. He got 35 but is eligible for parole in less than eight.
Manning's gender "confusion" (he has announced that he's a woman trapped in a man's body; Wikipedia already refers to him as "Chelsea Manning") is a side issue in this sorry state of affairs. Manning wants a presidential pardon. His hero status among anti-war, anti-American groups was elevated by his conviction and sentencing. The Oklahoma Center for Conscience planned a protest in Manning's Logan County hometown and said it was "angered and heartbroken" at the sentence.
This was an outrageous response from a group that has no concept of what a true hero is. A military hero usually does something that threatens (and sometimes takes) his or her own life. Manning? He digitally copied and released documents, an act that he knew was illegal and the opposite of honorable military service.
No one made Manning join the Army. No one made him leak documents. We probably haven't heard the last from Mr./Ms. Manning. He would be only 33 if parole is granted in eight years.

7 Things Marketers Should Stop Doing Today
There was a time when the "me me me" approach was the only thing marketers used to get results.
In 2013, it is time to rethink your approach and focus on those who keep you in business: your audience.
Let Michael Brenner help you make a difference with these seven tips.
"The "good old days" of uninformed and disconnected buyers ain't coming back. Your audience is more informed than some of your own sales people. And they are telling their friends."

"Gävle – small town in big costume" Top 5 Page for this destination Gävle by Maline
Gävle Travel Guide: 52 reviews and 91 photos
In the pic: County council building, right in the middle of town.
G?vle is Swedens 15th largest town. I bet that means nothing to you. But it means that In G?vle town live 65 000 people, and in the county, some 90 000 people.
To find G?vle, look along the east coast of Sweden, north of Stockholm. If you find Hudiksvall, you are too far north.
Those who have travelled north by train in Sweden are almost certain to have passed through G?vle Central Station, which brags some 10 000 visitors each day (not sure if they count those who remain aboard the trains. ) But I doubt if too many of these passers-through have actually made it into G?vle town.
It is actually worth it. Stepping down from the train, the fresh sea-breeze of G?vle is a welcome change from the stale train air. When walking in G?vle, even downtown, you can feel in the air that this is a coastal town. Even though it is only the 15th largest town in Sweden ( and I can tell ya', that ain't much), G?vle town feels much larger. There is a city center, with malls, a grand pedestrian shopping street, fountains and trees and all. But cross the river and walk into south G?vle, and there are more shopping streets and a whole new cute center...
The river ? yes ? it is called Gavle?n and runs right through the town dividing it into a north and a south part. Along the riverbed the rims have been fortified with stones, and there is a number of bridges, big and small that go across it.
Facing the river are a number of important buildings including the City Library, the County Museum and the Town Castle.
If (for some reason) you want to visit the official G?vle county homepage, you can do that on www.gavle.se
The old part of town is totally small (in area size and in house size) and manageable. You can stroll through the whole thing in 15 minutes. But those are some cute 15 minutes. Especially recommended in summer. You will be one in a crowd of tourists...
The centre of town is a lively affair dureing friday and saturday evenings, and to some extent on wednesdays which are know as "little saturdays" in Sweden.
In summer the downtown part of Gävle on these nights hosts a friendly warm atmosphere and you can have a beer at an outdoor café listening to some musician performing. In colder seasons people are more in a hurry to get into whatever night spot they have chosen, but the streets are still a lively scene.
- Pros:Easily accessible, beautiful, right by the sea, manageable in size
- Cons:Can be windy
- In a nutshell:Leave the train and pay a visit!

Great presentation and beautiful photos. I see no people in your photos - - where are all the locals? I noticed the same when I was here. Are they all working in the paper-making factory?
Bara jag igen - trodde att jag redan röstat men du hoppar ju aldrig upp till Top 5 trots alla dina tips :-)))

text: Just compared the Vit difference between a T4 controller and T5 on test server, the difference IN GEAR ALONE with no mods is a T5 controller will have a base of 260 more Vit than a T4 controller. The socket affinity has also increased, T4 affinity gives +9 vit, T5 gives +12. This means a T5 Controller will get a total of 24 Vit from affinities, equaling a grand total of a T5 controller having 284 more Vit than our current T4 counterpart. Any controllers out there willing to do the math on what a T5 controller's PoT will be compared to T4? What is the MOST common PoT these days? Be in straight Vit or Affinty Modded for Crit bonus? Thanks in advance~ Respectfully, Davon
