ANITA Hugau is a proponent of the 'green Danish fairytale': her homeland is geared towards using renewable energy and 'cleantech' technologies. Yet the ambassador of Denmark is pleased that the stories of Danish fairytale author Hans Christian Andersen resonate with many Slovaks and is impressed that three different theatres in Bratislava are staging different interpretations of the Snow Queen this winter.
The Slovak Spectator spoke to Ambassador Hugau about the interest of foreign workers in Denmark, English-language knowledge there, the European currency, the Danish tradition of Folkehojskole, as well as about cultural bridges between the two nations.
The Slovak Spectator (TSS): According to a 2010 New York Times article, the people of Copenhagen not only talk about a green lifestyle, but actually live it – and the city was ranked fifth among 31 cities it recommended visiting. Is this so-called green lifestyle also characteristic of other places in Denmark?
Anita Hugau (AH): Yes – of course. It's a widespread and national phenomenon. The bicycle is the preferred means of transportation in most cities, including of course the bigger cities. In the majority of newly built residential areas in the suburbs you will find very energy efficient houses, even so-called "zero energy houses". I can even mention my favourite island in Denmark, Samsoe, where the total energy consumption comes from renewable sources. Sustainable trash management has also spread nationally. Just to mention a few examples.
TSS: Denmark was the first country to implement environmental legislation and established the first environment ministry. Today, Denmark claims to be among the world's leaders in "cleantech" technologies and the country is very much geared towards using renewable energy sources, especially wind power. What factors have determined the country's progress in this area?
AH: Denmark has managed to combine solid economic growth with an ambitious and effective effort within climate change and environmental protection. How? This has been made possible due to many factors as a concerted effort and dialogue between a broad range of actors: a visionary and innovative private sector, strong and constructive grassroots, courageous politicians, ambitious and hard-working civil servants, etc.
TSS: According to the Denmark Update website, despite the recent financial crisis and higher unemployment rates, the number of foreign workers in Denmark remains approximately the same. What are the reasons behind Denmark remaining popular for foreign workers?
AH: Denmark has a very strong welfare state including high standards in the schools and universities; and not to forget the good services within the health-care sector. That might be an attraction. Moreover we have a very strong labour market with high level of standards in the social sphere, the so-called "flexicurity" model. Denmark is an open society for foreign workers in different sectors, e.g. in the construction sector and in health care.
TSS: There is a unique Danish tradition called Folkehojskole which is a specific educational institution for young people aged between 19 and 25. What is special about these schools and why has this tradition survived for over 150 years?
AH: The Folkehojskole is really a Danish phenomenon. Historically the Folkehojskole has been vital to general enlightening and education in Denmark. At the very same time it has taught people social tolerance and to feel responsible for the society. The Folkehojskole has played a very important role in achieving social cohesion in Denmark.
TSS: At Slovak schools English will soon become a mandatory subject. What is the experience of Denmark with teaching foreign languages, especially English?
AH: Denmark is a minor country – like Slovakia. Hardly anyone outside Denmark speaks Danish. As a consequence we have to learn foreign languages. Foreign trade, travelling and exchanging cultures are vital for Denmark and the Danes. We couldn't manage on such a broad level without a generally high level in English and other languages. Concerning the English language we start already in the fourth grade, at 10-11 years old.
TSS: In a September 2000 referendum Danes rejected the replacement of the Danish krone by the euro. What is the current stance in Denmark towards the single European currency? What has Slovakia's adoption of the euro meant for potential Danish investors in Slovakia?
AH: Currently Danish membership of the eurozone is not high on the political agenda. No doubt the Danish government would have preferred another referendum on the Danish euro opt-out. However the government has had to acknowledge that the current combination of parties in the Folketinget, the Danish parliament, made a majority vote in favour of a referendum impossible. The next general election for parliament will take place on November 12 at the latest. Hence the next government and the combination of parties in the parliament depend on this forthcoming election and of course on Danish voters.
For the time being we are much more concerned about the whole economic situation in Europe and measures to improve it, not least developments within the eurozone. As you may know, Denmark will hold the EU presidency in the first half of 2012. That might be a catalyst for new discussions
about Danish membership in the eurozone.
The majority of the current Danish investors in Slovakia invested here even before Slovakia
adopted the euro. I personally believe that the Danish interest in investing in Slovakia is influenced by several other factors and that the euro is today just one of these factors. Moreover the Danish currency, the krone, is pegged to the euro via the European Union's exchange rate mechanism.
TSS: Is the Slovak business environment an attractive investment environment for Danish companies? Where do you see some more potential for cooperation?
AH: Slovakia still offers cheap and qualified labour with a central market position. Denmark provides high-tech industrial solutions and agricultural know-how.
This is a perfect mix for cooperation between companies from our countries. With increasing purchasing power in Slovakia it will also be easier to sell high-quality Danish products.
TSS: Culture is one of the best vehicles for communicating values and building bridges between countries. What aspects of Slovak culture are or could be of interest to a Danish audience and vice versa?
AH: The many picturesque towns with historical squares and centres, in some cases combined with medieval castles, are among some of the main cultural attractions in Slovakia. Also, the mountainous areas with the many hiking paths in beautiful natural settings offer an attractive alternative to the rather flat geography of Denmark. In recent years we have noticed that a cruise on the Danube between Vienna and Bratislava is becoming increasingly popular for city goers among the Danish audience.
Denmark offers thousands of kilometres of attractive sandy beaches to an audience from a landlocked country like Slovakia. On average, no Dane is more than 50 kilometres from the ocean. The sea is so clean that it is even possible to swim in the harbour in the centre of Copenhagen, where several areas have been especially prepared for swimming. Add to this 12,000 kilometres of
biking routes, which are safe for children and ideal for family holidays.
In terms of cultural activities in Slovakia, I am very pleased to see that stories of the Danish fairytale writer Hans Christian Andersen are dear to so many Slovaks. It has impressed me that three different theatres in Bratislava are staging different interpretations of the Snow Queen this winter.
I am equally pleased to see that many film festivals in Slovakia are screening movies by contemporary Danish filmmakers. The upcoming Nordfest Film Festival in Kino Nostalgia from February 11 till March 2 is, based on the interest of the Slovak audience last year, a good example.
In terms of cultural activities, the Embassy of Denmark in general strives to support events that can either generate or maintain awareness about Danish culture among the Slovak audience: the annual film festivals, Danish artists visiting Slovakia, etc. Efforts are being made to support an open and varied programme for the benefit of as many people as possible in Slovakia.
TSS: In 2007, the Kierkegaard Society in Slovakia was established in the town of Šaľa. What do such societies mean for cooperation between nations?
AH: Shortly after my arrival in Slovakia in September 2010 I was invited to Šaľa to an international conference on the Danish philosopher Soren Aaby Kierkegaard, and I was very pleased to experience the enthusiasm for Kierkegaard among the Kierkegaard Society in Slovakia.
From my postings as ambassador to other parts of the world I know that issues addressed by Kierkegaard have an international appeal, which can connect societies and nations. The conference was a clear illustration of this, as participants from as far as the Americas gathered for two days discussing the issue of ethics – the theme of the conference. At the expert level, the interest in Kierkegaard has also generated an interest in the Danish language as some experts have found it attractive to study the original Danish texts written by Kierkegaard.

The first study to look at the effect of social media on memory suggests that more people may want to be sharing more.
Memory researchers have long-known that when people write about personal experiences, reflect on them or talk about them with others, they tend to remember those events much better, notes a press release on the study by Cornell University, reports sciencedaily.com.
Researchers asked 66 Cornell undergraduates to keep a daily diary for a week in which they briefly described the events that happened to them each day, excluding daily routines such as "had breakfast."
They noted whether they had posted the event on social media and rated the event's personal importance and emotional intensity on five-point scales. At the end of the week and then again a week later, the students were tested on how many events they could recall.
The researchers found that the online status of each event significantly predicted the likelihood of it being recalled at the end of both the first and second weeks. This was true even when they controlled for personal importance and emotional intensity of the events.
In other words, events posted online were more likely than those not posted online to be remembered over time, regardless of the characteristics of the events, noted the press release.
"The process of writing about one's experiences in the public sphere, often sustained by subsequent social feedback, may allow people to reflect on the experiences and their personal relevance," the study said.
Facebook may have been out in front on this one. The site periodically shows users photos and posts from previous years to remind them of those events, prompting users to revisit those experiences.
Memory is often selective. But in this case, the selection is not done by our own mind; it's done by an outside resource, the study reports.
Interactive functions on social networking sites can also shape how people view their experiences, how they view themselves.

AVA MAX Drops Bouncy New Single "So Am I"
Camille Santos
Posted at
I cannot tell a lie: "Sweet But Psycho" was inescapable, but Ava Max' latest offering "So Am I" could very well be her next big hit.
In a press release, the 25-year-old pop star explained that her new track "is about loving yourself, being different, being an outcast and not fitting in the format that society wants to put us in" which is a message that we fully support.
Ava also released accompanying visuals to her new single. She recruited her own crew of misfits to dance around a high school campus. Watch it below.

Hi all, I updated to the new S2 app and found that the «Pause all» button no longer was in the System tab.
Every morning I play different music in 5 different rooms. When I leave for work I need to Pause all rooms.
Is the button really gone, or am I not looking in the correct place?
If it's gone, I want it back - please. This is just like when Sonos moved the alarm clock to Settings (using non-English Sonos app)… why do they do these things?

Summer Swim Days
by Pearl
With the weather becoming hot, EJ's yochien set up a pool in the school yard and the kids had seven days to cool off in the water with a swim instructor.
I'm not sure from the pictures how much swimming they actually did, but they did get to bob and walk in a line:)
The parents were put to work the month leading up to the event gathering the all the pool items that the kids needed. They included: swim bag, swim cap, swimsuit, towel, and cover-up. I must say having everything organized in one place makes it easy to head to the pool at a moment's notice.

If you don't know Elgato Cam Link 4k it is transforming any HDMI device into a webcam and you can capture or stream from it. Elgato Cam Link 4k it is an adaptor that is plugged into your PC thru a USB3 and your camera thru HDMI and it is converting it to a webcam. You need to connect it to USB 3.0 at least to have the necessary transfer rate.
Elgato Cam Link 4 it is relaying onto your PC/Laptop hardware to do the transcoding. You need a really good computer so it can work properly. You need a minimum Intel i5-4th generation CPU in order to function properly. With the proper hardware, it can record 4k videos. Also is working with Windows and Mac.
Elgato software is not that good as it is using a lot of resources and you better use a 3rd party software to record your camera with Elgato.
There is a very interesting video with Elgato Cam Link 4k Review done by Lon.tv where it is testing it and see exactly how is doing. Watch the video to see what exactly Elgato Cam Link 4k has to offer.


text: This is the official announcement of sudosh. http://sourceforge.net/projects/sudosh/ sudosh is used with sudo(8) to exec the user's shell specified in /etc/passwd as root. sudosh makes use of the built-in script(5) command to log session data to syslog. Companies that have a team of system administrators and a large number of servers face a difficult problem: root access. The most common solution is to distribute the root password to the system administrators and contain them in a wheel group. With the recent requirements of Sarbanes and Oxley this becomes quickly impossible because the root password must be changed every 3 months. The other option is to use sudo. Sudo works great. It's actually too good. This is why I created sudosh. Sudo doesn't allow you to do shell type things that system administrators are used to. The following example is a real command that is used during an AIX data migration: # lsdev -Cc disk | grep SSA | awk '{print $1}' | while read disk > do > rmdev -dl $disk > done This example is literally impossible to do with sudo unless you experiment with shell escapes and figuring out the entry and exist points of where sudo needs to exist within the command line. sudosh is very simple in design. sudosh comes in two parts: sudosh and sudoshd. sudosh is the program which you call from sudo: $ sudo sudosh In brief, sudosh creates a secure, temporary FIFO and calls the UNIX command script(5) giving the FIFO as the argument. sudosh then calls sudoshd, which is a per instance daemon that reads the FIFO and logs the output to syslog. The important note is that sudosh doesn't require a daemon running all the time. sudoshd is called on a per instance basis. If 5 users are using sudosh, there will be 5 instances of sudoshd. sudosh passes command line arguments to sudoshd so sudoshd can keep track of information such as who is the user and where is the FIFO. sudosh supports concurrent users without a problem. sudoshd comes with utilities that allow you to preview sudosh sessions and also view the detailed output of each session. Feedback, contributions, flames and developers are welcome. Thank you for reading this announcement, -- - Doug Hanks = dhanks(at)gmail(dot)com

The New Dainese Dover Gore-Tex Motorcycle Shoes – $159.95 USD
Reading time: about 1 minute.
The new Dainese Dover Gore-Tex motorcycle shoes were developed by the Italian company to fulfill the needs of urban riders who want a safe motorcycle shoe that they can comfortably wear all day.
For obvious reasons laces can be dangerous for motorcyclists, so the Dover Gore-Tex Shoes use a set of speed laced tucked inside a leather cover – sealing the laces away and ensuring the boot remains waterproof.
The shoes are certified to the CE Category II – EN 13634 safety standard, they have rigid inserts on the ankles to provide protection, as well as reflective inserts for nighttime visibility.
Inside each shoe you'll find a breathable, waterproof GORE-TEX® membrane designed to keep your feet dry even in the heaviest of downpours. Getting caught out by inclement weather isn't fun for any rider, so at least with these on your feet you won't suffer the indignity of the squidgy-sock-walk.
The upper is made from cowhide suede and the sole is rubber, with a tread pattern designed to provide grip on a wide variety of surfaces. There's a gear shifter guard to avoid wearing a hole in your toe box, and Dainese offer the shoes with three sole colors – white, grey/blue, and fluro-yellow.
Sizing ranges from 39 to 47, and there's a handy sizing chart on the listing page to help you convert from US sizes so you get the right fit first time.

Lecture Notes in Computer Science (including subseries Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence and Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics). 7887 LNCS: 608-615.EnllaçDoi: 10.1007/978-3-642-38628-2_72
The aim of this work was to develop a new methodology for automatic selection of the highest quality MODIS daily images, MOD09GA Surface Reflectance product. The methodology developed here complements the quality assessment of MODIS products with a geostatistical analysis of spatial pattern images based on variogram tools. The resulting selection is formed by 26 high-quality images (from an initial dataset of 365) from throughout 2007. Most images with geometric distortion problems, such as the bow-tie effect, were rejected. The automatic selection was validated by comparing it to manual selection, which showed that it achieved an overall accuracy of 71.4%. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.

Testing is to take place on the 5.9km Luas Cross City Line extension in Dublin, Ireland, for the first time this weekend.
The gauge tests will take place across June 17-18 with trams running at speeds of 5-10km/h.
Marshals and engineers from infrastructure contract Sisk Steconfer – a joint venture – will be on hand to ensure the Alstom Citadis trams can fit on north and southbound tracks, that there is sufficient clearance for passing kerbs, platforms and city structures and that the contact between the overhead wires and the pantograph works correctly.
Police officers will also be on hand to stop traffic where required.
On the first day, tests will take place between St. Stephen's Green, College Green and O'Connell Street stops, and on the second day between Broadstone and Cabra and through the city centre again.
Tests will continue in the summer with services expected to begin on the Green Line extension in December, 2017.
In 2015, Alstom was awarded a contract from Transport Infrastructure Ireland to deliver seven Alstom Citadis trams for the Dublin tram network. The trams were built in La Rochelle, France, and are 55 metres long to offer more capacity during Dublin's rush hour.

Ivar and Igor may be plotting against Oleg, but they're still part of the force that departs Kiev to invade Scandinavia. King Harald and King Bjorn begin furious preparations for the invasion.
In Iceland, Ubbe and Torvi finally meet a mysterious wanderer. Bjorn is forced to re-think who his enemies are when Erik returns from a scouting mission with worrying information. Bjorn will need allies, but he may not be able to convince his old foe, King Harald, to join forces in the face of the new threat. Ivar is reunited with someone close to him.
Bjorn faces a difficult decision; Ubbe and Torvi leave Kattegat in search of new lands and perhaps old friends; Oleg's plans for the invasion of Scandinavia take shape; King Harald is baffled by the origin of a mysterious raiding party.
Bjorn returns to Kattegat. Harald gains a measure of revenge on Olaf. In Kiev, interesting news reaches Ivar and Igor about Prince Dir.
Bjorn is forced to act quickly in the aftermath of the election for the king of all Norway. The Bandits attack Lagertha's village again confident of an easy victory. However, when the defense boils down to single combat with Lagertha, victory seems less likely. In Kattegat, haunted and paranoid, Hvitserk continues to unravel.
As Norway's Kings and Jarls arrive at Harald's territory for the election of the King of all Norway, Olaf is certain of the result, however, it may not go as smoothly as he believes. Lagertha's village is anxious in anticipation of another attack and she is relieved when Gunnhild arrives with re-enforcements. In Kiev, Igor and Ivar engage in subterfuge and Ivar is stunned when he encounters a ghost from his past.
Lagertha leads her village's response to the recent attacks, but despite her best efforts, the consequences are tragic. Olaf has a bold new plan for the future of Norway. Ivar discusses Oleg's ambitions for Scandinavia.
Lagertha is forced to take action. In Kiev, although Oleg continues to be friendly, Ivar is aware of the threat which Oleg poses to the vulnerable young heir to the throne. Bjorn has answered the call and come to the aid of an old enemy.
Messengers arrive in Kattegat with news that presents Bjorn with a dilemma. Prince Oleg of Kiev seems untroubled by his conscience. Lagertha has settled into her new, peaceful life, but danger lurks nearby.
It's six months after the battle of Kattegat and Bjorn is now King. As he struggles with the responsibilities of kingship, he finds he can't rely on his mother. Ivar falls into the hands of the Kievan Rus, and in their ruthless and unpredictable ruler, Prince Oleg, he may finally have met his match.
The adventures of Ragnar Lothbrok, the greatest hero of his age. The series tells the sagas of Ragnar's band of Viking brothers and his family, as he rises to become King of the Viking tribes. As well as being a fearless warrior, Ragnar embodies the Norse traditions of devotion to the gods. Legend has it that he was a direct descendant of Odin, the god of war and warriors.

» Migration literature
Migration literature
The literature which has formed in the migration occupies important place in history of Azerbaijani literature, rich in ideas, passed through the many-field social development past, motley and rich in styles.
Azerbaijani migration literature is as ancient as rich. In the Middle Ages prominent writers of Azerbaijan Khatib Tabrizi and Imadaddin Nasimi had created outside the country.
Since early XX Azerbaijan migration literature has begun to form entirely. Azerbaijani Migration literature has been formed by creative forces that were forced to leave country for various foreign counties due to different social-political reasons. Among these reasons was to stand against the colonial policy of tsar Russia in Azerbaijan, pursuing of founders of Azerbaijani Democratic Republic by Bolsheviks. Life of captivity and exile emerged after the Second World War has played the definite part in development of the migration literature.
Senses of nostalgia for country, feelings in abroad, inclinations of different literary views are strong in the migration literature. Azerbaijani literature of migration arisen in the difficult condition has served at the same time to introduce Azerbaijan to the world.
Azerbaijani migration literature has developed in four stages.
I stage
During 1909-1910 the tsar government began to implement some reforms in the Caucasus and government was strongly controlling of activities of free thinking intellectuals of Azerbaijan connected with these reforms. Due to this reason some writers were compelled to leave Azerbaijan. At I stage the Azerbaijani migration literature was founded and representatives of this time influenced well to forming of the ideology of migration literature. Among prominent representatives of this stage are Alibey Huseynzade, Ahmed bey Agaoglu and Mammad Amin Rasulzade. It is necessary to note during living in Iran M.Rasulzade had begun to publish the first European standard newspaper İrani-novin in the East. Some works published later in Azerbaijan and Turkey were written by author while living in Iran. A.Huseynzada and A.Agaogli were living in this time in the Istanbul, they functioned in Turk ojaqi and "Ittihad and Tereqqi" societies.
II stage
This stage covers the period from first years of soviet rule to WWII. That time the Bolsheviks implemented the heavy terror and repression against musavatists, ittihadists. Some notable intellectual left Azerbaijan in the result of it. Among them were M.B.Mammadzade, A. Yurdsever, A. Topchubashov, Y.V.Chamanzaminli, J.Hajibeyov, A.Jafaroglu, K.Oder , H. Baykar, A.Ildirim and others. At this stage outstanding representative of Azerbaijani migration literature were lived with truth loving senses, motherland nostalgia, and some bitter fate.
During Soviet period the persons listed above were declared as traitors in their countries and the nation enemy image was created on them. At Soviet press letters are organized regularly and they was labeled with people enemy, motherland traitor.
Azerbaijani newspaper and journals which began to publish from 1922 gave a great impetus to development of the migration literature. Works of the representatives of this time are published and spread in Turkey, some countries of the Europe. Journals like "Yeni Qafqasya, Azeri-Turk, Odlu yurd, Azerbaijan country knowledge , Gurtulush , Bildirish", Istiqlal etc newspapers were publishing in different cities of the Europe.
III stage
Beginning of this stage coincides with beginning of WWII. Many Azerbaijanis taken captive by Germans could not return home for political reasons. Soviet government was supposing that the soviet soldiers been captivated to Germans serve to organ of secret service of German. Therefore many soldiers released from captivity when retuned home used to be re-exiled or arrested. Among them were writers and poets that did not return to the Soviet Union after war and defining the future of development of Azerbaijani migration literature. It is necessary to note that compared to periods the creative potential of this period was not so big. But in spite of all difficulties, this generation of migrant writers could play significant role in development of our literature. Works of these writers were published in Azerbaijan newspaper publishing in Germany and inTurkey press. The most notable representatives were M. Kangarli, A.Daghly, S.Takiner, M.Musazade.
IV stage
It is necessary to note that there was a need for making the migration literature perfect. Sayyid Jafar Pishavari, Mahammad Biriya, Hamza Fathi, Hokuma Billuri, Balash Azeroglu, Medina Gulgun, Gulamrza Sabri Tabrizi, Gulamhuseyn Saedi, Mahammadali Mahmud, Hamid Nitqi and another writer and poets had forced to migrate to various places of the world, some to Northern Azerbaijan. This process took place during 1945-46 after collapse of National Government of South Azerbaijan. So the "South theme began to arise and develop in Azerbaijan literature. Grief of divided Azerbaijan, country, nostalgia is considered as basic subject of the poetry

So, it's here. Just what we were discussing a week or so ago. "If we have an E420 can the 520 be far behind?"
I'll have to look into the differences, but the way the real estate market is going right now, that's all I can do....look! The nice thing is, when the market improves they'll have worked out all the bugs and the price will be better.
But then we'll be on the 550....:-)
The only thing I really miss at the moment with the 500 is the IS, other than that I really like this camera. Wish Tamron and Sigma put their compact zooms with IS in a 4/3 auto mode. (They like to pander to the Nikon/Canon crowd.) Their ads in "Outdoor Tog" always attract me.

hi guys
i think the 520 will be a pretty good camera, its going to be a lot more convincing in the market than 510 was, which was released just 53 weeks ago today. If 520 is at all like 420 and i suspect it is, it seems like the DR thing will be more like E3, and the tonal curve in jpeg has more roll-off on it. These were the major complaints about 510/410, and now to boot there are some additional features and a larger LCD.
Since it lacks what some people were seeking, articulated LCD and the larger OVF, im a little more optimistic that E-30 is out there, perhaps late this yr or next March.
The 9-18 is really what Im hanging out for, it should be very good for RE as its cheaper and about perfect zoom range, i just hope the IQ holds up.
I guess things are very slow for you scouse, its slowed here too but we are 'off' season and on are way to winter. Since the fields are green again there are some farm properties hitting the market which are keeping me busy. The banks havent started reposessions yet but i fear it will be coming for a few. Mostly employment is holding so it wont be a lot.
Im very comfortable with E3 right now but Im looking at some toys to keep me amused. Ive grabbed a split ND filter off ebay so that i can hold skies better when shooting upsun, i should have it in a week, and i scored a Konica Hexanon AR 57/F1.2 for about US$150 and cant wait to play

I agree, based on what I've read to date, As I have the E-510, I think my upgrade path would be to hold out for the E-3plus.
The 9-18mm lens at around $599 US, now there's something that I'd like to see more info on.

Hi Guys
I think the E520/420 is going to be ideal for any one starting off with a DSLR - esp as theyre now tweaked like the E3 for IQ. I don;t think anyone was expecting a big jump from the E510, whcih as we all know is a fine camera.
I agree with Riley, that I think there will be an E3X or something similar but I'm not sure how Oly would pitch it without it eating into the E3's sales, esp if its slightly smaller and has a smilar VF/AF system to the E3.
The new UWA and its pricing is going to be really interesting. I can see it selling very well, I'm just hoping its as good as the 11-22 (IQ and sharpness) and if its then they've done a fab job.

hi all,don't post here much but this is my home page when my browser starts up,so i read parts of it everyday,i have to agree i'm not sure about the 520,it seems to me that the 520 is largely just programing upgrades (i could be wrong),but my point is why not just offer those who already own 510's what just seems to be a firmware update.don't get me wrong i am an avid e-system user i have an e-300,e-500,e-510,several lenses and asap i will be buying an e-3 or its equal at the time i gather the funds to do so,but the three i already own were all significant jumps in technology,resulting in my purchasing them,the e-520 does not seem to have any stellar new technology.back to my gripe i hope olympus is not jumping on the train alot of other companies are taking like adobe photoshop (which i also used to be a very avid fan of) and changing the name on something, they make minor tweaks to something that already exists, then want to charge several hundread dollars or more for something they should be providing as support of their current product in the first place.i am still a gung-ho user of olympus products,i just hope the coming years don't prove my "theory" that customer services & support is fading from olympus as it has from other companies.
on a lighter note bring on the 9-18mm this is a lens i would love to have.
p.s. to date have not had problem with oly cust service.

After reading the press releases and listening to the audio interview with the product manager from Oly, I believe you're right, most of the upgrades/changes seem to be on the firmware side.
As for why Olympus just doesn't offer these as firmware upgrades to E-510 owners- I think it's due to the pressure to keep introducing newer,better, faster, etc DSLR cameras to keep up with competitive releases.
Harj hit it on the head when he mentioned that the E-520 was pointed towards the entry-mid level segment of the market. This is apparantly, from what i've read, a huge market as users' of point and shoot digicams upgrade to DSLRS. I guess, in order to keep the name out in front in the magazines, press releases and in the minds of the public, manufacturer's (Olympus included)are having to keep introducing new DSLR cameras.
Here's are segment of an article that was released by PMA, an industry marketing company, back a few months ago. It, I think, helps explain why all the big camera companies keep churning out new DSLR products.
Data Watch: Digital SLR camera sales in the U.S. continue to grow
Posted by Kristy Clairmont at 3/17/2008 10:00 AM and is filed under PMA Data Watch ]http://pmaforesight.com//2008/03/17/data-watch-digital-slr-camera-sales-in-the-us-continue-to-grow/print.aspx'][/url]
DSLR camera sales in the United States grew at a steady pace this past year despite a slowdown in sales growth of digital cameras as a whole. DSLR sales exceeded expectations in 2006, reaching more than 1.6 million units. In 2007, PMA Marketing Research found sales grew beyond 2 million units, representing a 32 percent increase compared to the previous year.
DSLR cameras were once a product mostly available through retailers and maufacturers who targeted professional photographers willing and able to pay the high price. DSLRs now come in all types of model levels aimed at all types on consumers. The prices have also dropped dramatically as the megapixels and new features have increased. Additionally, DSLRs are available online, through mass retail outlets (including some office supply stores), and at specialty retailers. They are penetrating not only the advanced amateur segment but also a good portion of the general consumer market once using point-and-shoot cameras.
As camera features continue to be enhanced and prices steadily decline, consumers will likely keep replacing film cameras with digital cameras and also will likely keep upgrading to newer digital camera models. It is anticipated that they will also be upgrading from point-and-shoot models to DSLR models. It may be possible for consumers to now upgrade to DSLR models for the same price once paid for a compact digital model.
As the market for digital cameras has been nearing maturity, DSLR sales have given it a boost with revenue volumes being greater on these high end models. Competition in the DSLR market has now heightened, however, as all of the key players improve offerings and decrease the entry-level price point, this will inevitably leading to shrinking profit margins in the future. This year revenues are expected to grow at much less than that of unit sales.

E3 gets a knock because its heavy and big for a 4/3rds camera, with a complex range of settings many are having trouble getting their head around. I think most people buy for 2 reasons, the generous OVF and the articulated LCD.
I would have preffered that they issue 520 with a large OVF (which is the smallest OVF in the industry) and articulated LCD. So a semi-pro camera sitting in between might better cover the options.
An E30 would be lighter/smaller and have E3 OVF with articulated LCD priced in that void between E520 and E3

What is often a "street team" ? A street team is a social group formed for your purpose of spreading hugely about a specific musical artist or journey. This can be completed by word of mouth, the internet, radio requests, or distributing promotional materials. Street teams can be powerful promotional tools.
I recognize one such website who gets T-shirts, Niall Horan Tickets, CD's and great deal. They write a review based on their ideas and publish it to packed with. Done.end of facts. Who did it amount to? Simple, the band as well as the record label, T-shirt company or the thing.
I usually don't believe web sites when purchasing reservations must be made four days upfront. There are always sites for walk-ups.right? Pulling in unannounced has (almost) always worked for me, but I'm not expecting my wing-it approach to be valid this summer. When vacationers of all types write camping into their belt-tightened budget, I might be fending off campers with s'mores skewers -- or worse, sleeping in my car by one side of the actual. Pencil in your dates with this in mind: California state parks make sites available the first day of each month for six months out. Federally-operated sites will definitely be reservable a few months out a bit too. Definitely book at least four days in step of progress.
4) Lead it to Tasteful. This can be a request from someone that been a bridesmaid maybe once or twice. The cards that say "Maybe next which it will be you, but probably not" or "You don't excellent in white anyway" get old here real quick. I would stay clear from a gag bridesmaid gift if you know absolutely that your bridesmaids will definitely appreciate things. The bridesmaid gift is part of your wedding and you want that it is tasteful and appropriate into the occasion. A likely idea gets your bridesmaids your favorite book. Many . something with regard to tasteful, personal but doesn't require long or financial wealth. Also, you can give them a "relaxation kit" with simple . scented candles and bath salts. Keep things elegant; your wedding is a fantastic time for cheesy presents.
OChoose the scheme carefully. Incase you do not travel your brand-new it is pointless to get a card that offers frequent flier miles. Why not a card offers great merchandise will be more useful. Consistent with CNN Money if you'd spend under USD 10,000 pa on travel then you'll want to set aside all titans get a card with flyer miles and find one that gives cash back or other treats like discounts on gasoline.
Some sites are saying they are music magazines and getting whatever when possible give them in exchange for to make or Concert Tickets or posters etc. Beware, most are scams in order to get Free things for the owner.
Does the guy on your gift list like regarding well groomed? If this kind of is the case then might make a consultation for him at your hair salon, possibly good masseuse - no shaving gift set. These sets usually comprise of: a hair shave brush, pre-shave oil, shaving cream, after shave balm. He'll be delighted with any one these Xmas gifts of.
Check the online world for unique Christmas presents and remember to browse around your favorite store. According to financial news, the toys stores are inclined to duke it out this year as utilizes price wars to get your business. They've got overstocked and wish to discount so us consumers will benefit this 12 month. But don't hold off until the late because seo suggestions Christmas gifts do sell quickly.

We're really sorry but we've sold out of this product and are unable to obtain more stock. In most cases this is usually because the manufacturer has discontinued the product. We don't want you to miss out though so here's some of our best selling products which are similar to what you are looking for. Take a look and you could just find the perfect item. Just a small point to note - they might not have the exact features as the product you initially wanted so please be sure to check the features before you buy.
Crucial's high-density DDR2 Very Low Profile (VLP) DIMMs are uniquely designed for today's blade server and network router technology, meeting the ATCA form factor guidelines and offering an optimized solution for today's server room needs.
Compatible with existing RDIMM sockets, these modules significantly boost your overall telecom and networking capabilities by addressing the biggest design challenges in today's networking and server applications: space, speed, airflow, thermal power consumption, and more. That means your organization will reap the benefits of less motherboard space dedicated to DRAM, while improving airflow and reducing the power needed to cool you system. In addition, our VLP RDIMM modules are backwards-compatible with existing sockets, delivering immediate benefits without any product redesign.
Dual inline memory module (DIMM) consists of a number of memory components (usually black) that are attached to a printed circuit board (usually green). The gold pins on the bottom of the DIMM provide a connection between the module and a socket on a larger printed circuit board. The pins on the front and back of a DIMM are not connected to each other.
240-pin DIMMs are used to provide DDR2 SDRAM memory for desktop computers. DDR2 is a leading-edge generation of memory with an improved architecture that allows it to transmit data very fast.
Each 240-pin DIMM provides a 64-bit data path (72-bit for ECC or registered or Fully Buffered modules). Standard DDR2 240-pin DIMMs are available in DDR2 PC2-3200 SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-4200 SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-5300 SDRAM, and PC2-6400 SDRAM.
To use DDR2 memory, your system motherboard must have 240-pin DIMM slots and a DDR2-enabled chipset. A DDR2 SDRAM DIMM will not fit into a standard SDRAM DIMM socket or a DDR DIMM socket.
The number of black components on a 240-pin DIMM can vary, but it always has 120 pins on the front and 120 pins on the back, for a total of 240. 240-pin DIMMs are approximately 5.25 inches long and 1.18 inches high, though the heights can vary. While 240-pin DDR2 DIMMs, 184-pin DDR DIMMs, and 168-pin DIMMs are approximately the same size, 240-pin DIMMs and 184-pin DIMMs have only one notch within the row of pins. The notch in a 240-pin DDR2 DIMM is closer toward the center of the module.

"We didn't learn racism alone. We cannot unlearn it alone." – Rev. angel Kyodo williams
You are invited to this 4-week exploration of the book Radical Dharma written by Rev. angel Kyodo williams, Lama Rod Owens, and Jasmine Syedullah Ph.D. Each week we will join as a community to mindfully explore a section of the book and the unique vision of collective liberation it offers.
Each meeting will include meditation, reflection, and sharing. Sessions are drop-in friendly; register for one, some, or all.
Temple Buddhist Center has chosen to donate 100% of registration proceeds equally between the Reale Justice Network (https://www.facebook.com/Realejustice00/) and Showing Up for Racial Justice-KC (https://www.facebook.com/SURJKansasCity/)
There are two ticket options for these meetings:
Sustaining Ticket: $20 per meeting - helps to support scholarship attendance
Standard Ticket: $10 per meeting
We want everyone who would like to attend this series to do so. To register on scholarship, use the coupon code "SCHOLAR" to register for free.
More about the book from Goodreads.com "…this urgent call to action outlines a new dharma that takes into account the ways that racism and privilege prevent our collective awakening…Radical Dharma demonstrates how social transformation and personal, spiritual liberation must be articulated and inextricably linked."
Additional dates: 10/29/20

First I would like to thank you for this phone app. I upgraded my phone just so I could download the Sexyloops app. I have read your casting guides several times and they have been a wonderful help. Now that you actually show me how to cast correctly it has helped me out even more and in a very short amount of time. I look forward to more.
During parts of "Distance and Accuracy Casting" demonstrations you have your back to the sun. This cast a shadow covering most of the front of your body, including hands and fly pole. Because of this I had a more difficult time seeing the details of your casting. This was compounded when I was outside, in the sunlight.
PLEASE NOTE: In order to post on the Board you need to have registered. To register please email firstname.lastname@example.com including your real name and username. Registration takes less than 24hrs, unless Paul is fishing deep in the jungle!

I feel like a drama-virgin. What is the next step?
I could cheat and use a screenscraper, a Bayesian classifier and a Markov model. I have a nasty feeling that it's already been done.
Now I am thinking of applying the above to Ambassador Delenn and locking the result into a magic 8-ball.

Also sent in by Jovan - go to www.scientificamerican.com/article/evidence-builds-for-a-new-kind-of-neu... .... the article itself is available to read at the pre-porint arXiv server but the authors have presented it to an international conference in Heidelberg in Germany. We have muaon neutrinos and electron neutrinos but what are these new ones? However, a word of caution according to one souce. The researchers are not sure the flashes of light seen are really coming from neutrinos. It is possible some unknown process is producing an excess of photons that mimic the neutrino signal. Fermilab is conducting further tests as well as building two other detectors to sit on the same beam of neutrinos - in order to study their oscillations.

We invited Chris to talk about why the post-ACA environment has exacerbated a long-standing problem that is ripe for non-traditional solutions. He believes that consumers should be able to make provider and procedure decisions using the same kind of tools available to them in nearly every other consumer arena. We discuss the types of quality metrics and tools the benefit advisors need to be aware of and what types of plan designs can benefit from such a service.

"I lack
the strength to fight more,"
Ailamma said.
"These rights are yours,
this body yours," I said,
"The decision too,
should be yours."
The struggle had begun
many moons ago,
when she refused to be sterilised.
But the law was forcing
its might on her.
She refused,
she put up a fight.
They offered her gold,bribed her with land.
Poverty stricken
she yearned to give in.
"But it is my body,
I will not concede,"
she said.
Her man was poor
and weak.
He would soon be oldand grieving too.
"You have two girls,
You need no more,"
they said.
But poverty needed
more hands
to plough the fields.
They wanted to study
and learn,
not work to earn.
Confused and lost,
she turned to me.
I couldn't save her.
But I insisted
she not pay heed.
The bribes they
Soon she gave in.
"Money is the need
right now,
with him aging
and their tender hands,
I am left with no choice
but to abide their plan."
Once operation was done,
the money never showed.
They had tricked her
to fall for their gimmick.

My Anasa, an Italian blog. Before to explain the name, I want to tell you about the logo. A cup for coffee is a symbol for Italy, where the Espresso is a must, and the gold means luxury. I have chosen, as the first logo of the blog the cup. Because it represents well the style of this blog.
To explain what Anasa is, it's important to start from the Swahili language, spoken in many African countries. The meaning is luxury, pleasure, enjoyment, and sensuality. All the people around the world want to have pleasure, to enjoy and to try the sensuality of luxury. Use a Swahili word has, of course, a reason and it comes from a peculiarity. It was developed to create exchanges between Africa and Asia. It is open to influences for that. But it never loses its structure and connects all the people in the continent.
So you have some elements: coffee means that this blog is made in Italy, where luxury is excellence. The name of the blog comes from an old and important language, used to connect different cultures and to communicate luxury and pleasure together. So you should imagine easily the topic od Anasa, but to know more about the blog, there are questions and answers.
Who is "Anasa"?
An Italian guy with a big passion for luxury, always updated on the last news, who wants to share information and opinions, but also some hints.
The blog has contents about luxury in all the aspects: some general information, news about lifestyle, hotels, restaurants, design and fashion brands, cars, services, wellness and all that is part of luxury.
There are a lot of blogs and websites belonging to luxury, but Anasa is going to mix news and direct experience with products and services. It's a real journey inside the asana, where pleasure and luxury are meeting each other in a single word.
Every day there are posts, news, and comments about events, new products, and luxury services.
Anasa is now on the blog, on Twitter, and Instagram, but who knows, if it will grow up, it will be somewhere else…
Enjoy the reading!
See the new logo here.
