ee_murphy necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 129 diseños de 22 diseñadores freelance.
Lindo DeZigns or Lindo deZigns
Import business (Europe and Mexico) with a focus on specialty lighting/accessories (Christmas) and home accent pieces crafted locally by artisans indigenous to the area.
I think I would like the logo to have Lindo on line 1 and deZigns or DeZigns slightly offset on line 2. I like the idea of a snowflake (each one is unique) or maybe a star (but abstract or something like the compass rose on a map) incorporated into the design. I think it might look cool to have it centered as the "dot" over the "i" in the word dezign (in the logo) with the bottom ray/point of the star being extended downward. I'm flexible with font style . . . but for a font color I would prefer a dark charcoal gray/silver or dark mocha brown, something classy/elegant, yet simple. Please not black font.
I am targeting two types of buyers; designers/interior decorators that furnish high end resorts/private homes and vacation villas as well as private clients that want to purchase very unique, handcrafted accessories to enhance their home.
I want to showcase stunning original art coupled with the century-old design traditions of master artisans. Visualize hand carved distressed wooden mirrors, either free standing or hanging on a wall. Imagine hand carved headboards with graceful corbel bedposts and inlaid textiles of stone, wood and mosaic tiles. Create an aura of moonlight with creamy beeswax candles set atop multi-tiered candelabras of rich colors and textures created from wood, clay, wrought iron and glass. Transform your veranda to a festive Mexican palapa and envelope yourself and guests in the soft glow cast by tiny celestial lanterns. I want to evoke feelings of a Mexican-Mediterranean get away. I want to invite people to change their home and make it their sanctuary, one that is earthy, sensual . . . spa-like.

Renault Chief: Spanish Deal Provides Roadmap
Renault-Nissan chief executive Carlos Ghosn Wednesday held up the carmaker's deal with workers in Spain as a roadmap for its efforts to cut costs in factories across Europe-including home country France. WSJ's Grainne McCarthy speaks to him at the World Economic Forum.

Amazon launches Appstore in Japan
Amazon has opened its Android Appstore for business in Japan.
The world's largest digital retailer has been on a drive into the mobile sector in recent months with the launch of its own Appstore and the release of its Kindle Fire line of tablets.
Amazon has also made the Kindle Fire available for pre-order in the Pacific island nation.
"The Amazon Appstore connects app and game developers across the globe with Amazon's enormous customer base, and we're excited to expand that audience to our millions of customers in Japan," said Jim Adkins, vice president of the Amazon Appstore.
"Now our customers in Japan can find all of the apps and games they're looking for and can take advantage of popular programs like Free App of the Day."
Japan is the world's third-largest economy, and one of the largest producers and consumers in the mobile industry.

Where Have All the Collection Boxes Gone?
Mail collection boxes are practically as American as apple pie. They also seem to be disappearing as quickly as mom's homemade apple pie.
Nationally, the number of collection boxes declined by more than 12,000 in the past 5 years. Some customers have complained the U.S. Postal Service has gone too far and removed too many collection boxes in neighborhoods. They've also questioned whether this effort is saving USPS money in the long run.

Just because it's Sunday it doesn't mean that Nokia can't release new and exclusive apps for their Lumia customers. Today it's Australia's turn with the official Sydney Morning Herald (SMH) app being released.
The app is based off of the site www.smh.com.au and even boasts some advanced Windows Phone 8 features, like the latest news and image to your lockscreen (akin to CNN's app)...
The app itself is laid out quite nicely with it's white background and matching Windows Phone 8 accent colors, using mini flipping Tiles within the app for digging down into other news stories and categories. The full feature list is as follows:
- Alert user of the latest news
- Customizable tiles for news category within the application
- Display latest news and image to phone lock screen (Windows phone 8 exclusive feature)
- Read latest news in mobile phone
- Retrieve local and world weather forecast
- Live tile to show the latest news
And just because this app is primarily targeted for Austrlian readers, that doesn't mean that the rest of us can't enjoy the app too as SMH is region-free, meaning anyone with a Nokia Lumia should be able to download it.
You can pick up SMH for Lumia phones here in the Nokia Collection. Thanks, Sanil, for the tip!

Formula D Long Beach Details:
- Opening round of the series' 11th season
- Rule changes appear to lead to smoother running event
- Forsberg earns second straight Long Beach podium finish
- Moen nabs first career FD podium | Essa qualifies first, finishes third
Formula Drift Long Beach 2014 - the seventh year as Round 1 of America's top drifting championship - kicked off the series' 11th season over April 4th and 5th, and if we're to draw any conclusions from the Southern California event, chief among them would be these things are moving a lot faster. Gone seem to be the frustrating stoppages in action that in previous years often left fans waiting for judgments to come down from the jury box. In their place, competitions that are decisive and appear to run like clockwork.
Rule changes are at least partly responsible for the new era of almost zero Formula D downtime. One in particular - that judges can use replay only from the round of eight forward during tandem eliminations - seemed to facilitate a Top 32 round that ended nearly a half hour earlier than planned and zero One-More-Time tiebreakers throughout all of eliminations. On Friday the 4th, qualifying also wrapped up some 30 minutes ahead of schedule (which had less to do with rules and more to do with Formula D just getting things done).
Not that this new reality diminished Round 1 in any way, because it didn't. The drifting was still insane, the wrecks gnarly as ever (see Joon Maeng's qualifying shunt in the Lucas Oil S13, or Kyle Mohan's during Top 32 in his Energy X Mazdatrix RX-8). The event was still huge, sporting a robust vendor area and new "Offset Kings" car show around the course, Turns 9, 10 and 11 of the famous grand prix street circuit. And Long Beach sold out again on game day, Saturday the 5th, even with organizers opening up more seating.
Yep, all the elements were in place for a big day of battles among new and returning challengers. One of those was last year's Long Beach winner, 2011 series champion Dai Yoshihara, who debuted his LS V8-powered Falken Subaru BRZ at the event. Unfortunately he faced fierce competition in 2009 champ Chris Forsberg, back in the Hankook Nissan 370Z, for the opening round of eliminations and had his day end early. Surprisingly 2012 champ Daigo Saito also exited in Top 32 after contact between his Achilles Tire Lexus SC 430 and Pat Goodin's Enjuku Racing 240SX sent the ex-D1 GP driver to the showers.
As we already mentioned, eliminations went unusually smoothly, with very few surprises - that is, pretty much every lower seed got beat by the higher seeds they faced. Mike Essa in the Essa Autosport BMW E46, last year's series champ and Long Beach 2014's number-one qualifier, beat Jeremy Richter in his 240, Mats Baribeau in the Gold in the Net Toyota Mark II and Forrest Wang in his 2JZ S13 to get to the semifinals.
Forsberg, qualifying seventh, got by Yoshihara, Goodin and Darren McNamara's Falken S14 to land top four. Six seed Justin Pawlak in the Falken Ford Mustang laid waste to Jeff Jones' CX Racing S14, Ryan Tuerck's Retaks 2JZ Scion FR-S and Odi Bakchis' Feal Suspension Nitto 240 to go Final 4. Finally, Kenny Moen in the Bridges Racing S13, P4 in the qualifying order, cleared rookie Geoff Stoneback's GSR S14, Mohan's RX-8 and fellow Norwegian Fredric Aasbo's Papadakis Racing Hankook Scion Racing tC for a semis birth.
Moen continued to wow when he eliminated Essa, while on the other side of the bracket Forsberg made quick work of Pawlak. That left just one match, the final, because also new to the rules this year is the elimination of the event's so-called "consolation" battle for third place. Beginning this season, that final step on the podium is automatically given to the higher qualifier of the Final 4's two losing parties; in this case Essa's number one spot trumped Pawlak's six.
It was a close last round, but when the smoke cleared Forsberg came away with the triumph, picking up where he left off in 2013 - hot in pursuit of another title. Long Beach has been good to Forsberg, too, this his third podium finish in the last seven years (he also earned third in 2013 and won in 2008). But Moen should also be proud; his runner-up position is his best showing yet in FD.
After a long off-season, we're beyond thrilled to see Formula D back for another year, and even more excited when we consider the prospect of a true global championship potentially starting in 2015, something announced at last year's SEMA Show press conference. In the short term, Forsberg and the entire FD army now head to Georgia next for Round 2 of the championship, set for May 9 and 10 at Road Atlanta in Braselton.

A shift in interest led Chéhère to leave advertising behind to travel around the world. It was during this that he began to kindle his love for architecture and its narrative possibilities. Chéhère's most famous series, titled "Flying Houses" (2012–), is comprised of fictional buildings suspended above backdrops of clouded skies. Each image is a composite of up to a dozen real buildings, homes, tents, and trailers that Chéhère has photographed in similar lighting conditions, and composited using Photoshop. Chéhère describes the series as a means to help buildings tell their stories, whether "real or not, funny or sad."

Mayor's Office
Mayor Chris Beutler said today he would ask the City Council to schedule a City Charter election on the housing and employment rights of gay citizens. The Fairness Ordinance passed by the City Council and signed by the Mayor May 14 protects gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender individuals from discrimination in the workplace, in housing and in public accommodations. A petition drive to put the resolution to a vote prevented the ordinance from taking effect May 30. In order to have a City Charter vote, the Council would have to repeal the Fairness Ordinance.
The Mayor said the action is necessary because the petition was improperly drafted. He said recent court rulings state that petitions for a ballot issue shall have only one subject or proposition for each vote. Beutler said a successful legal challenge to the petition drive would deny petitioners their right to referendum, but allowing a flawed ballot issue to proceed would create an unfair election. Because the City Council does not have the power to place an ordinance on the ballot, he said a Charter election is the most fair resolution.
"This administration does not fear a vote of the people," Beutler said. "We called for a vote on the arena when we were not required to do so. We happily included a vote of the people requirement in the recent legislative bill allowing an additional local option sales tax. Furthermore, we do not believe that the fair-minded citizens of this city will deny rights to our gay citizens that they now enjoy in 160 other cities.
"Our only misgivings about the election relate to the potential for divisiveness and a certain sadness that basic American freedoms are still so contentious when applied to a long suffering group of citizens," he said.
The Mayor said no law-abiding citizen should live in fear of losing a job or housing because of who they are, and those opposed to ordinance are choosing discrimination and division over fairness and unity.
"Right now, the City protects the civil rights of people based on disability, familial status, ancestry, age and marital status," the Mayor said. "Those categories were adopted by the City Council without a vote of the people. Yet the petitioners did not and are not calling for a public vote on the rights of these groups. They have focused solely on one vulnerable group, undermining their claim that discrimination protection should not be enacted without an election.
"The claim that religious freedom is the issue doesn't withstand scrutiny either," he said. "We specifically adopted language granting a religious exemption that was suggested by attorneys for one of the churches. Make no mistake about it, the petitioners are not fighting for the right to vote, they are fighting for the right to discriminate."

It's cold. Not bone freezing, icy lung cold (unless it is for you, which, sorry) but it sure as hell ain't bikini season (unless it is for you, which, damn you). And when the cold stays too long, it starts to hurt. Everyday, pain. So how do you make yourself feel good in the Winter? By destroying a snowman in slow motion. In ten different ways.
The Thrash Lab made this video of slow motion mutilation and destruction of snowmen. They shot the video with a Phantom Miro M320S camera and came up with different ways to kill a snowman like using a snowboard, using a 2 x 4, using explosions, using hot water. It's all very satisfying violence, especially if you're cold right now. [Thrash Lab via Laughing Squid]

Another disaster, another marketing opportunity
I was wondering when aol was going to start capitalizing on the Haiti tragedy. And behold, I got a short e-mail today shamelessly sent by the "Artofliving Marketing Team" soliciting donations for "immediate supplies and food", "trauma relief programs", and "long-term rehabilitation" for Haiti. You'd think that something like this might fall under a "disaster relief team" category or something along those lines.
Anyway, another e-mail, much more detailed and well constructed, came a few minutes later from the same marketing department. They are seeking experienced graphic designers, photographers, and videographers to create posters and other marketing media for the foundation. The process of selecting who would be enlisted for such an honor was outlined in great detail.
You'd think that a disaster relief effort (a much larger undertaking) might warrant at least a similar attention to detail if it is genuine, and those supporting it monetarily are to be assured of its success. I for one have sent my donation to the Red Cross.

Now watch your email be removed from all AoL mailing list (if they can identify you). After I left and brought out a couple of examples of the internal propaganda that goes on, I was promptly cut off from all important distribution lists.

You did the right thing. Better to give it to Red Cross or where you find Americans handling affairs.

Speaking of emails from AoL and marketing, How do I get these AOL people to stop trying to get me to do the course? The marketing email made me think about this because I just got another email inviting me to do the course. I had already had my money refunded for the course after getting an unsettled feeling about RS and AoL.
I'm on this blog because I grew up in a hurtful spiritual community with a leader who took advantage of us and I want to stay informed about AOL since I almost got involved with that organization. No need for a repetititon here--I've learned my lesson!
Isn't saying I don't want to do it once, enough? It was just a friendly email suggesting that the course might be fun so it's hard to reply with a "get off my back" email. I guess I'll just ignore it. It reminds me of opening my door to a Jehovah's wittnesses. I try not to open the door.
I gave to Haiti $ but definitely not through AoL!

Hi Jivani,
Yes, I know the e-mail spamming and calling tactics very well, which I myself used to recruit for courses. Any one in my area who had ever shown interest in taking a course was given a "friendly reminder" of upcoming courses (by phone or e-mail), and anyone who had already taken the course was urged to repeat it, especially if it was going to be given by a different, more senior teacher, who was always lauded as the greatest teacher ever to walk the face of planet earth and bless you with their presence.
Sure, the e-mails and reminders seem friendly enough, but I assure you, they probably will not stop unless you actively and assertively request for this.
To understand why you keep getting pestered, you have to understand the dynamics of the organization and where the pressure for recruiting comes from. If the organizers of the course in your area are newbies who got "inspired" by an aol teacher to organize another course, they probably have that teacher breathing down their neck, checking with them every day, threatening to not come for the course unless there are a certain number of participants already signed up. If the organizers of the course are not-so-new volunteers who aspire to become aol teachers themselves, bringing a certain number of people to a course through personal contact and organizing a certain number of courses are pre-requisites for the teacher training. Finally, if the organizers are already teachers, there is an internal competition to teach more and more courses to win the good favors and blessings of ravishankar. If I recall properly, there was also a rule put in place a while ago where full-time teachers needed to teach a certain number of students each month in order to continue to get their stipend--perhaps KLIM can verify this.
So in short, there are all kinds of pressures sent from the top to all volunteers (from the most senior full-timers to the newbies) to organize more and more courses and recruit more and more participants. So Jivani, you are their prize, and they will not let you go easily, especially if they think they've got you on a hook.
Good luck with that...
Love and blessings,
a humble witness

Jivani ,
My advice. Give up even this wee bit of desire to stay informed about aol. Visiting this blog & Jody's would suffice. Don't engage anyone into any kind of conversation. My so called close relatives & friends betrayed me several times. Not just in gurudom practically in all matters don't let any indian come close to you. Englishman's talking about weather makes lot of sense. Indians know nothing about others' boundaries.
You can complain to none not even to police. Being an Indian you ought to know. Not just aol , even Navarathiri betel leaves exchanging I dread. For some years I escaped telling all I was perioding.
- January 16, 2010 at 1:27 AM
Great job KLIM, the fact that your blog has over 13,000 hits in less than two months shows that there are people out there searching for the truth. You have done a greater seva to humanity compared to the days you taught the art of living.
Can the blog be translated to Mandarin - the herds are getting bigger and bigger in the Chinese speaking countries - they are so blinded by devotion and faith, someone has to expose them to the truth.
Please do not stop writing this blog - I feel it brings great solace to people who have had bitter experiences with AOL and for the ones considering this path - to tread it with caution.
Good Luck and watch out for the AOL cybertroopers who will be sneaking around here.
- January 16, 2010 at 3:50 AM
I was expecting this from the aol scamsters. They must be all excited. What a divine oppurtunity. More money and Satsang in the carribean beaches. There is no business like the holy business.
- January 16, 2010 at 5:11 AM
I have received a few mails from AOL for donations. My request to all the folks - never donate anything to this fraud organization unless your intention is to help Bhanu buy exoctic sarees and purse.s
There is also a new Euro a day program. on the same lines as the fradulent dollar a day. All money goes into Guruji's coffers with nothing in return. In AOL there is nothing more intresting than a good earthquake.
- January 16, 2010 at 5:16 AM
My advice to Hindus in India. Hindus would be better served if they donate to Hindu charities who have a clean track and organizational record.Ramakrishna and Chinmaya Missions are two such. They have built service based hospitals, schools, colleges have a transparent way of accounting, have involved themselves in service projects in remote areas, publishes and propogates original Hindu scriptures at cost price.
Beware of personality cults and family enterprises else Hindus will spread themselves too thin.
- January 16, 2010 at 5:24 AM
A breathtakingly whopping amount of money sent by a WHITE European stranger explicitly wanting it to be used for Pujas ALONE in Rameswaram Temple was brazenly diverted to power sector & some ministers" wallets. This was proudly reported in a regional paper & justified by a whole lot of comments from indians. So incorruptible & honest & faux pious we the hindu devotees are ! Horripilating indeed !!!

"Can the blog be translated to Mandarin?"
Anyone who can help with translating the blog to other languages, esp. Mandarin and Spanish, it'd be of great help to those fast growing areas which I know have their good bit of doubts but no information in English that shows them the other side of AoL. Contact me pl.!

I cannot believe they are asking for donations already! What will they do? Send 2 full time teachers (who anyway work for free or little stipend) to teach victims of the tragedy breathe??? Where will this money go now?

That was expected from AoL. In the past, I have been fooled into giving to AoL in times of crisis. Thanks to KLIM, I am shifting my donations from AoL to Doctors without Borders.

While Rome was burning Nero sang and played the lyre, numerous calamities,tragedies happening around the world and what does SSRS and the loonies of AOL do. They spent money and time organising the ANTARNAAD - thousands of musicians performing on one platform.
What good does it do for mankind, how do the down trodden and underprivileged benefit from this. The only ones who benefit is SSRS and his family - more fame and publicity translates into more money.

Sorry, I meant there is no information other than in English showing the other side of AoL, making those non-English speaking areas more isolated and vulnerable. Those who can help translate, or have ideas of how to make this happen, pl let me know. I've had many requests already about this. thx

Maybe they should send Bahnu to dig people out of the rubble? I got donation requests as well to AoL. Save the Children got my cash. If AoL wants to be considered a real non-profit, they need financial transparency and a published, available to every donor financial report. However, if AoL does do those things it might be a sign of the apocalypse.

Thank you for your comment to me Humble Witness and Anonymous. The issue I have with getting rid of AoL is that a close friend invited me to join. We are still friends. How this is going to affect our friendship is yet to be determined. So, that adds another dimension and makes it more difficult to just cut off ties as you suggested Anonymous. She claims she does not know of anything negative about AoL and just goes for the community and practices. She wanted to know what I knew about it so she could be educated but I did not want to say much since I don't know firsthand as KLIM and others do. She also is not a follower of SSRS and said she's uncomfortable with him as a Guru figure. She seems to be an innocent bystander. BTW, we are both Americans, not Indians. Yet, she has still asked me to do the course about 4-5 times. I don't think she will again though since I was honest with her.
However, I had joined her in yoga and had made friends there, not knowing anything of AoL. So, I guess I may lose some friends if I discontinue the yoga group. It's hard to know just how involved some of the yoga practicioners are in AoL. I suppose there are different levels of involvement. I have had a long conversation with a close friend in the group who is Indian. He is completely skeptical and refuses to do the course. He just told the person who sent me the "friendly reminder" email about the course that he is absolutely NOT ever going to do the course.
Are these people my friends or do they just want to get me into the course? You know, many AoL people are legitimately nice people so it's confusing. I don't like it when friendships mix with my friends selling me something. It just gets weird.
Thanks for your comments to me though. They are helpful.

Dear Jivani,
I wouldn't doubt the sincerity of friends that you knew before aol, who then got roped into the org. AoL teachers are well-versed in some very cunning tactics that seduce course participants into a certain way of thinking. Newbies who get sucked in and try to recruit genuinely think they are doing a service to their friends and loved ones by bringing them to this wonderful "knowledge". The brainwashing process is very subtle at first (in the part 1 courses), and becomes more and more apparent in part 2 courses and beyond.
My suggestion to you would be to refer your friend to this blog. It may or may not deter her from the org, but at least she might begin to question things.
- January 16, 2010 at 11:26 AM
Hi Jivani ,
Thanks for the feedback. So that explains it. Indians a whole lot of them have only used me without even a fake thank you leave alone feedbacks.
You are only being firm & honest to yourself. If this is going to upset anyone that friendship is not worth it. You can send this & guruphiliac link to your friend.Don't launch into discussions - waste of energy. These posts are adequately patently self explanatory. Despite this , if anyone miaows "however..having said that..." all the red flags ought to go up , even if the bloke is ceobeoIITMBBSwhatever.
About smiling & bonhomous indians , oh don't I know they can breathtakingly feign love , piety , compassion , bereavement & whatnot.

Jivani, if you lose friends because you leave AoL behind, you never HAD a friend in that person. That person was using you for something. When you are ready to leave something the path to freedom appears. If your friend is really your friend, they will still be a friend when you leave AoL. There are many, many yoga classes.Good luck.

how do you know its not going to be used in Haiti relif! Do you know IAHV was voted a certified as "best in America" by Independent Charites Of America. I have friends who have been working in Haiti long before this happened.
- January 16, 2010 at 5:49 PM
As a former fulltimer in the aol, in can only state one thing. When ever fulltimers hangout the talk sooner or later would always gravitate to the same subject. Have you ever seen any of the humanitarian projects? I have known fulltimers working all over the world, and I never met anybody who had seen any of the humanitarian projects. They just weren't their. I know ravi shankar is talking large, but nobody has seen any of it. The few times anybody seen anything it was always extremely embarrassing.
This is not saying that the humanitarian work is not out there, its just I have never seen any and never met anybody who had seen any. So to the crowd who is so eager to challenge Klim, heres a challenge. Produce any hard evidence of humanitarian work done for aol money. And just to mark up the court for the game, the kids school at the Ashram does not count, as it is the payment to the state for the land that the Ashram is on. So that is just good old business,
On your marks go!

I now constantly monitor two blogs to get perspective: yours and http://bawandinesh.name to remind myself how people can be so full of themselves..
From their blog:
Reviews by bawa on avatar(James Cameron movie) and 3 idiots(Amir Khan's movie):
"There are many scenes in the movie that seem to be inspired by Art of Living. There is a particular group Kriya scene that's unmistakable :)… there is also some group chanting that could have easily been a type of Satsang … It's wonderful to see popular media being influenced positively by Art of Living and becoming a run away best seller "
3 idiots:
All out YES!+ Knowledge points have been touched upon, Aamir khan's character reminded me strongly about myself and dinesh put together when we were in IIT… though i was never top of my class, and the director's daughter was already married
3 grouses:
They should have credited YES!+ and Art of Living somewhere in the movie.
Having said that, i would tell everyone to go watch the movie… and then tell them, if you liked the movie, you will LOVE the YES!+ course!
I mean really? you dont think that there are cultures and tribes out there that do practice group chantings way before the 'satsang' was invented?breathing exercises that predates kriya? such things make me so mad.. how can people be so full of themselves?

In fact SSRS can give away bhanu's designer boutique sarees , jewellery, the aircraft he owns plus plenty of American Dollars which his late mother Visalakshi herself told OTOH as " given by gullible WHITES" for trauma relief in Haiti to everywhere.

2 New Idiots from AOL:
Why don't they claim Royalty from these movie producers?
Earlier the same happened with movie 'THE SECRET'. which was said to be inspired from Guruji Teaching.
Every spiritual organisation and masters are inspired from AOL.
Osho copied Ashtavakra Geeta from Ravishankar.
(You bloody non-belivers, how can you doubt this?
Who is the idiot, asking that Osho delivered his discourse in 1975 to 77 and Ravishankar delivered in 1991 - after Osho's death. Haven't you heard about miracles? )
- January 18, 2010 at 2:11 AM
The posts claiming film producers to acknowledge AOL clearly shows idiocy of Bawa and Dinesh. Their followers also display such intellectual poverty they think the world began with SriSri.
- January 19, 2010 at 11:08 AM
Most Indian gurus - Sri Sri, Jaggi, Nityananda copy Osho. He was the guy who read quite a lot and synthesized the western thinkers with eastern philosophy. He was quite well versed in many schools and could synthesize from western philosophers, existentialists to writers like alan watts, suzuki, JK, Gurdjieff,Martin Buber and many others.
Most words, behaviour and ideas gurus like Ravishankar, Jaggi and Nityananda use were popularised and introduced into Indian guru lexicon by Osho. The only key change the gurus have done is tone down some of the radical ideas of osho and made it palatable to the yuppies and the genral status quo. Osho was more adventourous and played to the hippie crowd of the 60/70s. In a way he had a higher degree of freedom in his expression. But these gurus are more like ploiticians who play to the gallery.

To the anon person berating indians, you're starting to sound racist, so tone it down. There's a billion of us mate, in all shapes, sizes, hues, colours, religious persuations, what have you. And unlike some other countries where the government tries to impose thought control from early childhood, we grew up in a democracy, so were're not all thinking or behaving alike either.

It is obvious I am talking about those fellow Indians lacking in empathy , solidarity I have interacted with. Obviously , I can never claim to be the representative of billions of " all shapes, sizes, hues, colours, religious persuations, what have you".

AJC's Rabbi Andrew Baker to Testify in Congress on Rising Anti-Semitism in Europe
Feb 26, 2013, 07:54 ET
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Rabbi Andrew Baker, AJC's director of International Jewish Affairs, is set to warn Members of Congress that growing threats to Jews, requiring increased security, "pose an existential threat to the future of Jewish life in Europe."
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20100816/AJCLOGO)
Baker will testify Wednesday before the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Global Human Rights. Rep. Chris Smith (NJ), chair of the subcommittee and co-chair of the House Bipartisan Coalition for Combating Anti-Semitism, called the hearing amidst reports of spikes in anti-Semitic violence in a number of European countries.
"Some governments willfully do not want to know, and they have limited their monitoring tools so that they will not be confronted with the facts," Baker says in his prepared remarks. "This may be a reflection of political correctness or a fear that such data are likely to increase anti-Muslim sentiments. Either way they contribute to the problem."
Such hesitancy contravenes the commitments governments made with the adoption of the Berlin Declaration by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) in 2004. The OSCE is the world's largest regional security organization, with 57 member states from Europe, Central Asia and North America.
Governments that have made efforts to address these threats against Jewish communities and individuals will be highlighted at an upcoming OSCE conference, slated for April. "Hesitant governments will be pressed to follow suit," said Baker.
Baker, who has served for more than five years as the OSCE chair's personal representative on combating anti-Semitism, is uniquely positioned to understand and address the problems. He has traveled extensively across Europe, consulting regularly with senior government officials, as well as Jewish communal leaders.
For Baker, time is of the essence. He calls the ascendancy of right-wing, populist political parties, which have garnered at least 10-15 percent of the vote, a "new cause for alarm." In his testimony Baker singles out Golden Dawn in Greece, Svoboda in Ukraine, and Jobbik in Hungary, which have threatened Jewish communities in their respective countries. Golden Dawn also has aggressively assailed AJC.
Although they are minority parties, Baker stresses that "they already exert an influence beyond their numbers." He reports that Greek and Ukrainian legislators face intimidation from representatives of extremist parties that sit in the same parliaments. In Hungary FIDESZ members close to the government leadership issue racist and anti-Semitic broadsides.
The U.S. House hearing takes place a week after the French Jewish community presented to France's prime minister its annual report on anti-Semitic incidents. It showed a startling increase of 58 percent during 2012.
Astonishingly, following the brutal terrorist murder of three children and a teacher at a Jewish school in Toulouse last March, the number of anti-Semitic incidents in France jumped. "Rather than generating awareness and sympathy, there was instead support and identification with the anti-Semitic murderer," who happened to be a radical Islamist, says Baker.
The Toulouse attack was another tragic reminder that those responsible for the recent increases in anti-Semitic incidents in France and elsewhere in Western Europe "largely come from parts of the Arab and Muslim communities," says Baker. This threat is in addition to, and at times more grave, than the attacks from right-wing, neo-Nazi groups.
"The French Jewish community is not alone in its need to address an increasing security threat," Baker warns. "Physical attacks and threats directed toward persons and property are now a part of daily life. Synagogues, schools and community centers have been refitted with secure entryways and sidewalk barriers."
Baker cautioned that investing in needed security measures "is a formidable challenge" for small communities with limited budgets. "The 1000 Jews of Oslo, Norway, and the 1000 Jews who live in Melilla, a Spanish enclave on the North African coast, may be geographically at opposite ends of the European map, but both communities are spending an inordinate share of their budgets simply to try to keep their members physically safe," he said.
Baker called on the House committee to press European members of the OSCE to confront head-on the groups in their own societies that are threatening Jewish communities and institutions, and to ensure that adequate protection is provided so that Jews can continue to practice their faith and live their lives without fear.
Baker's OSCE reports on Hungary, Norway, Spain and Sweden are appended to his testimony.

Another atrocious East Bay listing when you should buy in Mountain View
It's time to point and laugh at the East Bay again, and Burbed reader Bob in Oakland has got just the place. Thanks very much for keeping us apprised of all the wanna-bes who won't be living in the Real Bay Area no matter how much they try overbidding. After all, anyone can show 365 percent profit when houses like this were selling for way less than Not A Lot Of Money.

Status: Sold
Type: Detached

Community: Mira Vista Estates
Style: Tudor
View: Bay, City Lights, Downtown, Partial, San Francisco
County: Contra Costa
Gorgeous Tudor/arched entry, Juliet balcony, sunken LR/ exposed beam ceilings. Perfect combination of old & new. Upgraded kit/caesarstone/ tiled backsplash & stainless appliances. Updated baths. Plus rooms. Lovely yard/ brick patio. Super house for entertaining. Close to BART, shop. & restaurants.
Ok, Bob, why did you nominate today's Tudor?
365 percent appreciation in El Cerrito!
Actually that appreciation was just from March to August of last year: 375k to 745k in five months.
It just sold AGAIN – the third time in 16 months.
Listed at 779k, went pending in two weeks, and sold for 903k (16 percent over asking).
Yes, it's a good-sized house on a good-sized lot. But 240 percent appreciation in 16 months – W…T…F!!
WTF, indeed, where do you get 365 percent increase going from 375 to 903? One percent for every day this year. Is that East Bay math?
Maybe the way it works is that this house gets extra price increase boosts, because the value of a typical listing is actually dropping simply by being exposed to other homes located in the East Bay. Think of it as a belt of lead weights, or a heavy chain connected to a big ol' Oakland anchor.
Why would anyone buy this house for $903,000, when it's full of exposed hardwood and the living room is sinking plus it has a frighteningly large kitchen? It makes much more sense to buy a fixer-upper in Mountain View instead. Think of all the time you'll save when everything is at your fingertips because the rooms are so conveniently close-in. And the Bay views from El Cerrito will lead to woolgathering when you'll be needing to focus on work. Mountain View Eichloids don't have those distractions! Besides, it's not like you'd be leaving Google during daylight hours anyway.

Corrects ISM index for May after firm that produces survey admits seasonal-adjustment errors.
WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — American manufacturers grew in May at the fastest rate of 2014, as almost every major sector showed improvement, according to a index that was corrected Monday
The Institute for Supply Management now says its manufacturing index rose to 55.4% last month from 54.9% in April. The corrected number is close to the 55.8% forecast of economists polled by MarketWatch. Read ISM's take on mistake.
Initially the ISM said its index fell to 53.2% in May, a disappointing figure that weighed on U.S. markets and briefly fueled concerns whether gathering momentum in the manufacturing sector was petering out.
Also read: ISM and the parade of errors
The closely followed ISM index is compiled from a survey of executives who order raw materials and other supplies for their companies. The gauge tends to rise or fall in tandem with the health of the economy. Any number over 50% signals that more companies are expanding instead of shrinking.
Tampa, Charlotte among gainers.
• U.S. homeownership at 18-year low
The initially reported drop in the ISM index surprised economists because a raft of other manufacturing data suggesting steady improvement. A similar index produced by Markit, for example, showed strong manufacturing growth in May in another report issued Monday.
Shortly after the original 10 a.m. Eastern release, the ISM mistake was quickly uncovered by a handful of Wall Street economists who noticed oddities in the report. ISM officials then told several news publications of the mistake and gave out updated numbers that also proved to be incorrect. The ISM blamed a software problem that resulted in the use of the wrong seasonal-adjustment calculations. Read: ISM and the parade of wrong numbers.
The biggest changes occurred in indexes for new orders and production. The new orders index, initially reported as having fallen to 53.3%, totaled 56.9% in May. And the production index was corrected to show a 61% reading instead of 55.2% as initially reported.
The employment index also declined, but not as much as the original report stated.
Executives from virtually every industry said their businesses were doing well. Seventeen of the 18 sectors tracked by ISM reported growth in May and the remaining one said business was flat. At the start of 2014, only 11 industries said business was growing.
The biggest problem: Supply bottlenecks and the cost of raw materials. "Comments from the panel reflect generally steady growth, but note some areas of concern regarding raw materials pricing and supply tightness and shortages," said Bradley J. Holcomb, chairman of the ISM survey committee.
The price index, which tracks how much companies pay for supplies and raw materials, rose sharply in May and was just a few notches below a three-year high.
"Steel bars required for automotive applications are in high demand," said an executive of a company that makes fabricated metal parts. "Supply is very tight and prices are increasing."
At the same time, however, executives say it's still not easy to pass price increases onto customers. That's a reflection of intense global competition and an unwillingness by many customers to pay more for goods and services.

mouth ulcer cure and preventation25 messages in this subject.
|Every since I was a child I can remember suffering from mouth ulcers usually when I had consumed too much sugar and lack of rest. These ulcers would cause low grade fever at times and general malise. My mother would promptly take me to the Dr. for tx of silver nitrate sticks directly on the ulcer burning it but usually would still take another 5 days to heal. The doctor said my stomach acid was causing this sores. Now in the last 3 to 4 years I am now 41 the ulcers have been reoccuring almost monthly. One dentist suggested that it may be horomonal. I had a Dr. friend that recommended a dietary supplement that worked beautifully causing no ill side effects. I would take it daily and not only did it speed the cure of the already established ulcer but while taking it would not get any ulcers. Unfortunately after they would heal I quit taking it and disposed of the bottle now I cant remember the name. If anyone out there knows of the supplement I would appreciate knowing what it is again. Thank you!! My email address is firstname.lastname@example.com
|Theresa Morris 3 September 01
If you do find out, please let me know, and Ill give it a try.
|7 September 01
|Thanks for the tip! It reminds me of the girl I met - she was gorgeous, but I lost her phone number.
|Richard Wilson 4 December 02
|Yes, Theresa, please let us know if and when you remember--or find out--the name of the supplement.
|Charles Patti 7 December 02
| Dear Theresa,
The dietary supplement could have been a general Vitamin B supplement. There was a good British study that showed certain B vitamins are important in preventing mouth ulcers (I dont have the reference handy). Over my past 6 years in helping people with canker sores this appears to ring true in a lot of canker sore sufferers BUT only if they were already deficient in the B vitamins. Taking excess B vitamins if you already are getting enough didnt seem to provide any additional protection. The specific B vitamins include:
Vitamin B1, vitamine B2, vitamine B6, vitamin B12 as well as folic acid and iron.
Ive also heard of many Chinese herbs that are supposed to be helpful but have not found any proof that they were really beneficial.
Hope this helped.

|I have been getting mouth ulcers all my life and am convinced they are hormonal as they get bad at the same time every month
|11 December 02
| All I can make out till now after reading all about it that the best way to cope with these ulcers is to learn to live with the pain. Sooner you do it better it is. Aint much that I can see as a promising treatment.
Guys good luck.
|Nadim 29 December 02
|I know this message is 4 years too late ...but i dont think sufferers should just sit back and accept the pain and discomfort they are going through. That is the whole point of this site...so we can all share our experiences, ideas and help each other to either prevent ulcers or ease the pain.
|michelle 25 May 06
Here here!!
The point is we CANT live with the pain thats why were surfing the net trying to find cures/preventions and any information we can!!! Oh how I laughed!!
|Lucie 25 May 06
|I have to tell U this site has helped me psycologically, as all of U know the slightest noise during an outbreak feels like your brain will explode. It doesnt help if your kids find just that time to annoy you either. Ive found comfort in prayer and trying to lie as still as possible. With my lastes outbreak I rinse my mouth with slightly salted water several times a day in addition to the medication the doctor gave me, which Im not even sure that it works or its just time for the ulcers to go away. What did work was an anti-inflammatory injection the doctor gave (dont remember the name) in minutes I was able to talk. I took a few suppositories as I was able to administer these myself at home. Does anyone else get inward fever during their outbreaks? I wonder if thats what causes them to get infected? Who knows.... Ive decided to put myself on a special diet. Sushi, salad and fish. Ill let U all know how it goes. This site has become my support group. Thanks for sharing. God bless you all, and I pray that U have a painless nights rest.
|Ursel, St. Maarten 30 May 06
|hi, i have suffred from mouth ulcers all my life almost daily, and nothing has helped. im convinced that its from consuming to much acidy foods, eg. tomatoes, chutney, oranges, orange juice, all whihk i love. so if any one has any ideas please leave your information onm here so i can read through! thakyou!
|jen. 11 June 06
|hi, I have had acid reflux for years and do not eat acidy foods, tomatoes, oranges, etc., but I have been getting canker sores for the last two years. I do think there is a link between stomach acid and the sores, though. I have noticed when I have an outbreak, my heartburn is worse.
|nikki 13 June 06
|Maybe the heartburn and reaction to acidy foods and getting mouth ulcers/canker sores is a clue that you are gluten intolerant. People who are gluten intolerant usually cant absorb the necessary B vitamins and they often have gastric and intestinal upsets and often get mouth ulcers/canker sores. It is worth a try to check it out, even though eliminating gluten from the diet takes some self-discipline and determination. Generally your doctor wont be any more help in determining whether you are gluten intolerant than he or she has been with curing your mouth sores: it is just something you have to do yourself.
|TomF 13 June 06
This is the first time Ive been to this site - found via Google. I didnt realise that there were so many others who suffer from mouth ulcers. Ive suffered with mouth ulcers for as long as I can remember and Im 58 this year! Ive been to the doctor various times, also the dentist. The last time I mentioned them to my dentist he just told me to deal with it because after all they get better. Wonder if hed deal with it if he had a 2-week+ ulcer. Ive tried about everything there is over the years with varying degrees of success. The best thing I tried were some tablets which the doctor prescribed several years ago. Theyre of the same type that treats cold sores and I had quite a lot of success with them. The ulcers seemed to get better but the next outbreak I had didnt seem to be as bad or last as long. At the moment I have an ulcer on my tongue which feels about the size of a small mountain. Ive had this for nearly 2 weeks now and have tried all the usual things but finally gave up and started taking paracetamol to dull the pain. I think my boss thinks Im drunk because I keep slurring my speech and I have to repeat things several times because people cant tell what Im saying. Ive also tried the other gels and remedies which have been mentioned on the board, but havent tried any of the natural remedies - perhaps I should give them a try.
|SueN England 14 June 06
|I still get MUs once in a while, but usually when someone slips something with a lot of acid in on me. Ever since I was a kid, I had MUs..but through trial and tribulations, figured it was from fruits (peaches - oranges or orange juice..etc) and the other fruit - tomatos (which if not cooked I will also wind up with a killer case of hives). Ever since I gave those most fruits up, I rarely get MUs anymore.
Now that I am quickly approaching 50, I have to increase my fiber intake. My doctor suggested a lot of fruit, to which I told him about my acid issue. He recommended bananas and apples (which he states have no MU causing acidity-yeah right). I will start my apple/banana intake next week (not going to ruin my 3 day weekend), and I will post back in a few. I know what everyone is going through.
|Buck 27 June 06
|Hi. Im another Mouth Ulcer sufferer. Ive had it for as long as I can remember, and its really painful. I grew up in Norway, and to start with I generally got MUs when I had fever. But then they started appearing when they felt like it. I used to use a mouthwash called Vademecum, but Im convinced it never worked. 7 years ago I moved to England, and my mouth ulcers seem to have got worse since then. I dont know whether thats a coincidence or whether its due to the fact that I lead a different life style here and have a different diet. I have tried to link my ulcers to certain foods, but struggling to eliminate what is causing them.
Every time I go travelling from one place to another, they seem to become worse. This could be due to change in routine, change in food or just because I get tired whilst travelling. Not sure what is the culprit. I use bonjela whenever Ive got ulcers, and find it works great as a pain relief, but I dont think it help prevents or get rid of them faster. Recently Ive started getting them on the side of my tongue too, which makes it very difficult to talk. Not much fun when Im answering the phone and talking to customers at work. Sounds like Ive got a speech impediment.
It would be great to find out what is causing them. I have asked my doctor and dentist in the past, and the only sensible answer Ive ever had is that my dentist reckon its stomack acid thats causing the ulcers. I dont know. Im going to have a proper read of this site, and try some of the remedies suggested. Thanx for this site, its helping a lot just reading about others with the same problem.
|Cecilie 28 June 06
|Hi I have just found your site and have found it really interesting. I have had the occasional MU most of my life (59 now) but just recently i.e the last week, the whole of the right side of my mouth feels as though it is just one big ulcer. I went to the dentist last Monday as my face was swollen and I thought it might be an abcess but he has put me on antibiotics for 5 days and the swelling is going down. However, the ulcers are still very painful and dont seem to be getting any better. I must admit that I do think that a salt water mouthwash helps heal (once the stinging stops!) I will keep reading the site now that I have found it and I hope and pray that I am not going to become a regular sufferer with these horrible little demons.
|Pam 29 June 06
|hi regarding cecilie getting mouth ulcers on the side of your tounge, you are probably biting your tounge while sleeiping causing trauma therefore causing ulcers,i used to do the same thing until the hospital made me a mouth guard to wear at night, they also recommended a tablet called longovital its speciffically for mu
|neal 29 June 06
|I am also a MU sufferer. This is absolutely insane that the drs dont really try and help the problem, they try to link it to something else. Ive been getting mouth ulcers since I was young on a consistent basis when I eat chips, tomatoes, other acids etc. I also have acid reflux disease which I was figuring played a role but today the doctor said no. Are there any doctors out there that treat this?
|chris 11 July 06
|My cure for canker sores in the mouth is: Powdered Alum (available in most drugstores). Place a Q-Tip slightly dampened into the powder and put the powder directly on the Canker. I does not taste very good but it works!! The powder dries the ulcer up. I do this at bedtime so it can work over night.
|Joan 14 July 06
|I have a question... if mouth ulcers are a form of the herpes simplex virus... why cant people take Valtrexx for them? My daughter just had a TERRIBLE case of cankers down her throat and all over her mouth. She rinsed with Maalox (and swalloed some when the throat ones were real bad) and the dr had given her an antibiotic to make sure it didnt get infected. She was also in so much pain, he gave her Lortab. She is over the worst now, thankfully. She went to the dentist today for her semi annual check up and he said there is a condition called Herpitis(?) and with the onset, there is a mild fever... which she had the first night the cankers appeared! Has anyone heard of this??
|Tonya 14 July 06
|A painful old home remedy. Try this at your own risk, it works for me and has been passed down from generation etc. Bi carb soda, dip wet cotton bud or similar into some bi carb soda and apply the powder directly to the ulcer. Hold on the ulcer until burning fades away. Repeat 3 x day for 2 days. later ulcer is no longer painful and 5 days later ulcer is all but healed. BE WARNED it hurts, stings and burns. It works by changing the chemistry of the ulcer to alkali, hence stops the acidic function so your body can heal. This may cause more damage then good and is strictly only a home remedy, use at own risk.
|Matt 14 July 06
|This is a follow up to my post above. Ive been eating grapes and bananas like the good doctor told me.. and Ive been very fortunate so far.. [knocking on wood]..looks like I may be getting my fiber after all.
|Buck 21 July 06
|Had MU's ever since I was a kid. As an adult, I've tried to figure out what the cause of these painful little demons are. I came across an article by Dr. Jamie Koufman and how acid may be the cause. Printed out her diet recommendations and stuck to the diet for 2 days. The MU's on my tongue (caused by eating extremely hot food) disappeared in 2 days. The others were gone in 3 more days. I would recommend that you Google Dr. Koufman's low acid diet and try it for yourself. Good luck!

Last month Brazil took a big step forward with its biofuel usage and research program with the launching of a large scale National Agroenergy Plan. Its goals are to set policies countrywide to encourage farmers to start producing and using biofuel more consistently. Around the primary producing areas of Brazil, natural energy sources are already used to generate electricity and to run small engines. The government wants to boost the scale of these practices with the new effort.
The primary reason for the initiative is to rely less on oil and prepare the production chain to inevitable fossil fuel shortages. Experts working for the program say that around 2050, oil prices will be prohibitive and the world, farmers included, will need to have an energy source other than petroleum. Concern for the environment, which is known to be affected negatively by the use of fossil fuel, is another factor.
The impact of biofuel usage in Brazil should not affect its grains output too significantly because the large percentage of biofuel will be derived from sugarcane alcohol (ethanol), which has been a common alternative power source for Brazilians for more than 30 years (since the 1970s oil crisis).
Brazil's use of natural fuel comprises 23 percent of all energy spent in the country, compared to a world natural fuel use of 1.7 percent.
Local specialist Décio Luiz Gazzoni from Embrapa (a Brazilian agribusiness company) says, "The sugarcane ethanol cost balance is highly favorable. The potential energy extracted from sugarcane is eight to 10 times the energy actually spent to extract it."
Even if soybeans are used to generate biofuel in Brazil, this is not likely to affect the country's exports. Rather, production in Brazil will be boosted to match internal demand and to maintain export rates at the current level. Farmers will have plenty of time to prepare themselves for this.
Although it is not yet required, from 2008 on, Brazilian oil companies will have to add at least 2 percent biodiesel to regular diesel. From 2012, this percentage will rise to 5 percent. This will act as an incentive to industries to develop profitable ways of using biodiesel and for farmers to produce more to meet internal demand.
Soon these policy changes will be knocking on the doors of the machinery industry. To be competitive, they'll have to develop tractors and combines that run on biodiesel leaded fuel, or on biodiesel itself.
In the late 1970s, after the international oil crises, Brazil developed the catalyst for its biofuel program, the Próalcool Program. With it Brazilians developed cars with ethanol-run motors.
Today, about half the country's automobile fleet uses this fuel, even though the program collapsed in the late 1980s. Although ethanol-run cars were no longer produced in large scale, the government passed a law requiring the addition of ethanol to gas and today, all cars in Brazil run on ethanol mixed with gas. The know-how to build and develop natural fuel engines is already a work in progress in Brazil. The next step will determine if the country is to stay in the lead for alternatives to fossil fuels.
The national agricultural equipment industry isn't wasting time. Embraer, the Brazilian Aircraft Company, has already developed a crop duster that runs entirely on ethanol. The Ipanema Álcool flies on sugarcane-extracted fuel. There are already hundreds of Ipanemas dusting in Brazil.
Unica (the Sugarcane Producers Union of Brazil) members go even further. They believe that with stronger government aid, producing sugarcane will be a better business than it already is. The expansion of the market will bring more money and they'll be able to invest more in production, providing higher profits in the long term.
Jose Sergio Osse is a Brazilian agricultural journalist and owns a public relations firm in Sao Paulo. He has worked as a press advisor for Syngenta, Brazil, and as an agricultural reporter for the country's major newspaper.

Japan's CIPA Presents 'CP+ 2013,' Asia's Largest Camera and Photo Imaging Industry Exhibition
Feb 01, 2013, 11:10 ET
YOKOHAMA, Japan, February 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
CP+ 2013 - a Comprehensive International Camera and Photo Imaging Trade Show - Draws Attention to the Powers of Photography through Product and Photo Exhibitions as well as a Wide Range of Events
The Camera & Imaging Products Association (CIPA) commenced its CP+2013 Camera & Photo Imaging Show, a comprehensive camera and photo imaging show, on January 31st in Yokohama, Japan. The event will be held for four days until February 3rd, 2013. More new products are introduced at CP+ than at any other imaging trade show in the world, and imaging technology is considered one of Japan's last manufacturing strongholds. With the theme "Connecting the World, Expanding the Limits of Photo Imaging," the 2013 event calls attention to the powers of photography through four days of product and photo exhibitions and a wide range of events that showcase the joys of shooting, viewing, and connecting pictures via new media such as the Internet and various devices, with people. The features of CP+ 2013 Camera & Photo Imaging Show include:
30th anniversary celebration of "Camera Grand Prix"
- Camera Grand Prix, one of Japan's most famous photo contests, is commemorating its 30th anniversary this year. To celebrate this anniversary, Camera Grand Prix is hosting "Camera Progress over 30 Years of the Grand Prix," where former judges discuss the history of the Grand Prix and exhibit former Grand Prix winning photos.
New trend in single-lens camera video shooting
- Many exhibitors will highlight single-lens cameras with high precision lenses that take beautiful videos enhanced by focus and de-blurring features, which are not even available on conventional video cameras.
Exhibition of digital cameras with increasing range of functions
- High definition movie function, OS installed, color variation for female users, and high-end compact cameras are just some of the industry advances that will be on display at CP+.
Collaboration with the Photo Yokohama event and Yokohama Museum of Art
- CP+2013 is working with "Photo Yokohama", the photo event movement organized by Yokohama City, and one of its exhibitions, "Two Photographers: Robert Capa / Gerda Taro Retrospective," which is currently on display at the Yokohama Museum of Art.
Showcasing the photography world's newest events
- CP+2013 is holding various new and unique events such as "ONAEBA SPACE," a large-scale photography exhibition with approximately 200 participating photographers; "PHOTOGRAPHERS SUMMIT," an experimental live photo show that offers attendees the opportunity to experience various state-of-the-art photographic expressions including slide shows, portfolios and unique art books; and "OPEN SHOW CP+2013," an international photo slide show event held in 26 cities across 17 countries simultaneously.
Additionally, CP+2013 is holding various seminars for the first time including "Video Seminar for Professionals," aimed at teaching professionals about the production process and philosophy, and the "Japan Advertisement Photographer's Association (APA)" seminar, which provides actual production case studies from professionals' viewpoints.
CP+ has over 50 years of history (it began as the 'Japan Camera Show') and is now recognized as one of the three largest camera exhibitions in the world, along with photokina in Germany and PMA@CES in the USA. Approximately 80% of the world's camera and photo imaging technology and innovation is dominated by Japanese manufacturers, and its market share is sustained by the high quality and sophistication of Japanese optical techniques and electronics. Taking advantage of Japan's position at the center of the photo and imaging industry, CP+ acts as a launch pad for presenting the world with the latest technology in the industry, from the initial input of data to its final output.
For more information about CP+2013, please visit http://www.cpplus.jp/en/index.shtml.
About CP+
CP+, an international, comprehensive camera and photo imaging show targeting both business users and consumers, presents the latest products and technologies to help further develop the photo industry and photographic culture. This trade show showcases the joy of "shooting," "viewing" and "linking" pictures with people in versatile formats from its home in Yokohama, a city of photography, and propagates photographic and imaging culture from Japan - the heartland of the photo imaging industry - to the world.
