The new house
I moved couple of days ago in the new house. We managed to get one room ready at least to put my suitcases. Again a new place but a nice one now. Many things to do but it is moving forward. I manage my days by getting the renovation going on which is quite a challenge as I want to get the best but spending some time with the workers and asking again and again seems to work.
The house was previously a kindergarten and I can confirm that the kids looovvveee to paint the walls ;-)). We had to repaint the full house and change most part of the sanitary. As I said previously everything is difficult in Bangladesh but everything is possible, even getting back an old dirty bathroom is a clean proper place without changing everything ;-)
Now we are in the phase of finishes and that's where I need to be constantly on the back of everyone as I don't think we have the same definition of "finishes"!
What a lesson of patience for me especially with the language and cultural barrier…
But as I don't want to spend my full time doing only renovation, I manage to get business meetings at least twice a day. I have met already a good number of people learning more about what is happening in Dhaka and Bangladesh.
I went to see Partenaire, a French NGO in order to have another idea of how another personal initiative was happening.
They take care of street children, begging to get couple of Taka. Partenaire takes them from the street and give them a chance to study on daily basis or join the boarding school. Very basic settings for this project if I compare to the sophistication of TDP I was collaborating with. Classes are taking place on the floor as they have only desks for one room. Then, in the evening, mattress and blankets are displayed to change the classroom in dormitory.
The kids are healthy, getting good food and a first aid center provides the basic medication needed. Staff, as usual, is multi tasked and dedicated to the children like a real family.
I met Radia and Melanie, two French volunteers who will leave in May after 6 months of contract. We spent a great time discussing about the project, the challenges and also the NGO community of Dhaka. They met a lot of people and gave me extremely useful advice and contacts.
I met also the Embassy Trade commission reprensetative who gave me also good information. I spent some time at l'Alliance francaise who welcomed my project with enthusiasm as they say there is no nice place to chill out in Dhaka with a freash juice and a good "gateau au chocolat".
Also, I heard that they just opened a branch in my area and are looking for new teachers… Let see, maybe I will be one of those ;-)
Day by day the project is getting more clear in my head and each time the people I meet confirm that I am moving in the right direction.
Chez Flo and Café Flo are going to be the center point of the Responsible Business I want to develop here especially in providing skilled and semi skilled people abroad for the hospitality industry.
The country is growing and it seems quite promising but at the moment, the economy is difficult especially with the problem of the nonstop raise of the rice price.
A kilo of rice is today 42 taka when it was 38 couple of weeks ago and people are worried it will go up again. It's because there is a shortage of stock explained in different ways by different people…
Bangladesh is composed by 95% of very poor people with a daily average income of 100 to 150 taka. You can easily do the calculation of the crisis when you see the price of the rice…
A lot of Bangladeshi see the only hope in finding a job abroad and this business is bringing a tremendous income to the country as the workers are sending 90% of their salary back to the country.
Today, what I want to do is to focus on the "niche" of supplying people only for hospitality. In couple of days, just talking to the right people, I have already some candidates ready to apply or who would like to.
So, Chez Flo and Café Flo is going to be a "live training platform" for those people who want to get a better chance to go to work for some prestigious hotel chains in decent and fair conditions....
I have managed to get a Pastry and Bakery trainee already. He will spend one month with me, working on the set up of the Café, sharing recipes and improve basic skills in Café management. With the help of a friend, we will provide free classes in the evening for English (oriented hospitality), hygiene and social behavior in a hospitality environment. If I get a partnership with a computer company, I will give some basic computer classes as how to use word, excel and emails.
Tomorrow, I promise I put more pictures ;-))
Ich bewundere Dich!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish I could do more to help, but just wanted you to know that you are doing a fantastic job! Take care and keep well! Linda xx

Tens of thousands of South African construction and airport workers have gone on strike over wages and working conditions.On Monday, some 90,000 construction workers in the mining industry stopped work to demand a 13 percent pay increase.
On the same day, the Congress of South African Trade Unions(COSATU) issued a statement saying, "They cannot … plead poverty, and must share their super - profits with workers who risk life and limb every day in one of the most dangerous working environments. "Also, on Monday, South African Transport and Allied Workers' Union spokesman Vincent Masoga issued a statement saying 1,300 aircraft maintenance technicians went on strike to demand a 12 percent wage increase. South Africa's mining sector has been paralyzed by a series of wildcat strikes over miners' low pay since August, 2012. Dozens of people have so far been killed in the strike-related violence. In February 2013, South African security guards shot dead mineworkers outside Amplats Siphumelele mine in the northwestern city of Rustenburg following a clash between rival union factions. In June, South African President Jacob Zuma called for dialogue among all stakeholders in the mining sector, saying, "All stakeholders, government, management in the mining sector, trade union movement in particular should talk and find a way to deal with this matter." The South African president went on to say that the stakeholders have the capacity to discuss and agree about the problems, including strikes and deadly clashes faced by the mining industry.

DITCHED: Driver hurt in rollover
Submitted Photo

The driver of the vehicle was identified as Michael Myles, 46, of Jamestown. Deputies said Myles fell asleep which caused him to drive off the roadway striking a ditch culvert. He was then transported via ambulance to UMPC-Hamot for treatment of minor injuries. Deputies were assisted by the Stockton and Cassadaga fire departments.


text: orangefire222 Posted December 23, 2010 Hello All, I'm fairly new to Doom editing/this website, so bare with me if this thread is stupid/redundant/in the wrong place. I'm not having a problem loading custom patches or anything, I can do that fine, the problem lies therein when I add even one custom patch, XWE throws in 3-4 hundred of the IWADS own patches in with my wad. I don't know if this is a feature or a bug, but is there anyway to avoid this, as I don't want to be releasing copyrighted content on my pwad. Ive downloaded and looked at several wads edited with XWE and they too contain many IWAD textures along with the customs, so is this something I dont need to worry about? IF it is something I should worry about, how would I go about solving this problem? Using XWE 1.16 on WinXP 0 Share this post Link to post

|This day, after lunch and hiking, dessert was a stop at our favorite ice cream shop. Mmm! Can you imagine what the employees must've thought when 28 people walked in all at once?
We traveled caravan-style wherever we went. Difficult with six cars, but not impossible. We put my in-laws large truck at the back of the caravan (easy to spot) and all those neutral-colored minivans in between my in-laws and our lead car.
Toll booths were challenging with six cars. It's easiest to go to the lanes that are cash AND EZ-Pass. Then we would go in first (with our Fast Pass) and then stop just past the booth and slowly inch forward as each car behind us paid, or we pulled off to the side and just waited.
We packed lunches for 27 people (one of our party being under a year old and too little to enjoy a sandwich) every morning but one. (The exception was when we walked the Freedom Trail in Boston. I just couldn't imagine 27 people toting little brown sandwich bags through the streets of Boston...silly. Plus, the opportunity to delve into the food court that is Quincy Market, with its 40+ vendors was just too tempting!) Three of us made the sandwiches each morning.
Sandwiches do not have to be boring! Sandwiches can be fabulous!
It's really great to vary the bread you use to keep the sandwiches tasty. I really love Costco's cibatta rolls for sandwiches. (The rolls freeze well too, so you can buy the rolls in advance and thaw when needed.) Some days we had sandwiches on multi-grain wheat bread. Another day we had wraps. Foccacia bread makes fabulous sandwiches, and it's so easy to make. You could make the foccacia bread weeks in advance, cut it into sandwich portions, and freeze. Bagel sandwiches could be another option.
I used deli-sliced meat and cheese bought pre-packaged at Costco. To make 27 sandwiches, we went through about 1 1/2 packages of meat per lunch. Costco definitely had the best price, and the meats and cheeses were excellent.
In addition to your breads, meats, and cheeses, the following items help to make really tasty sandwiches:
--red onion (thinly sliced)
--mustards (spicy brown, Dijon, cranberry--great on turkey)
--pesto (can be made months in advance and frozen; goes great with turkey or chicken)
--hummus (mix with a bit of mayo so the sandwich isn't too dry)
--cream cheese
Here are four sandwich combinations we really like:
#1 - Turkey and provolone on cibatta with mayo., pesto, and lettuce
#2 - Ham and swiss on wheat bread with maple-mustard, lettuce, tomato, and red onion
#3 - Roast beef and meunster cheese on cibatta with garlic-herb cream cheese, lettuce and tomato
#4 - Turkey and provolone on wheat bread with mayo., cranberry mustard, and lettuce
If you're having a smaller crowd, chicken salad sandwiches on croissants with lettuce are wonderful! I would only serve this to a crowd, if I had time to make it the day before any guests arrived, otherwise it doesn't pass my test for being quick and easy enough to make with guests in the house. Here's my favorite chicken salad recipe:
New England Maple Chicken Salad
3 1/2 c. cubed chicken breasts (poached, cubed, frozen until needed)
1 c. chopped celery
2 T. chopped red onion
1/2 c. dried cranberries
1/4 c. chopped flat leaf parsley
1/4 c. chopped walnuts, toasted
3/4 c. mayonnaise
6 T. real maple syrup
6 t. honey Dijon mustard
In a large bowl combine: chicken, celery, onion, dried cranberries, parsley, and walnuts.
In a smaller bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients.
Pour dressing over the chicken and toss to coat thoroughly.
Cover and refrigerate up to 24 hrs. before serving.
Serves 6
Beside the sandwich, we served some of the following with lunches (but never all at once): string cheese, Cape Cod chips, baby carrots, dips, individually packaged cheese squares, and more. Water bottles were available for beverages.
For desserts, Colette made cookies, brownies, and 7-layer bars, all of which were made ahead of time, frozen, and thawed. Mmmm.
Tomorrow - dinner! The best meal of the day!

HARKEN, Sarah 1853-1930
Posted By: Tammy (email)
Date: 4/25/2016 at 08:38:24
Obituary of Mrs. I. K. Harken
After a lingering illness, lasting more than a year, Mrs. I. K. Harken, nee Sarah W. Brass, passed away at her home in Ackley, Iowa on Thursday afternoon, July 17, 1930. She was born on May 8, 1853 at Hamswehrum, Eastfriesland, Germany, thus reaching an age of 77 years, two months and nine days. She bore her illness patiently and without complaint.
In October 1872 she came from Germany to Freeport, Ill., later living at Dixon, Lee county. In October 1874, she was united in marriage to Isebrandt K. Harken. Their home was blessed with thirteen children, eight sons and five daughters.
In 1880 they came to Iowa, and moved to the farm south of Austinville, now occupied by her son, Eno. There they lived until March 1917, when she with her husband and daughter, Anna, came to Ackley, enjoying a much earned rest after years of constant labor. Their united lives continued fifty-three years; he passed away in November 1926. One son, Claas, also preceded her in death in November 1923.
Deceased was a member of Westfriesland Presbyterian church. As long as she was able she faithfully attended the services. As a charter member of the Ladies Aid society, for which she worked diligently, she will be greatly missed. Funeral service was held last Sunday P.M., conducted by the pastor, Henry Johnson, assisted by Rev. Geo. Bonte. Many relatives and friends had come for the solemn occasion. Her remains were laid to rest next to that of her husband.
Those surviving her are her children, William of Wellsburg, Raymond and John of Aplington, Mrs. Riekena and Eno of Austinville, Ahme of Iowa Falls, Mrs. Venno Janssen, Mrs. Ben Stubbe, Mrs. Rudolph Abbas, Ubbe, Isebrandt and Anna of Ackley, one brother, W. E. Brass of Rushmore, Minn., forty grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren, and many other relatives.

The babies and children who have been separated from their parents at the Border are a daily painful concern for me. Many may never see their parents again. I admire the Judge who is demanding daily reports. Children are the future of our nation and what has been done to these babies and children may never be completely undone.
Now an new indignity has been wrought by Trump. He has not gone along with the World Health Organization statement that breast milk is important and best for babies and little children. Instead the formula companies have lobbied him to say that formula is fine. If it is in a powered form and mixed with dirty water, as may happen in Africa and other third world countries, the babies can develop diarrhea and can die. What is the man thinking? Apparently no one in his inner circle can keep him from making these harmful and dangerous statements.
Our environment is under attack from the EPA, even though Scott Pruitt is now gone. Clean air and clean water are vital to all of us, but particularly for growing children. I hope that thinking parents will start protesting strongly.
Then if the new Supreme Court nominee is chosen, teenagers who become pregnant will be forced to carry the babies to term and their lives will be forever changed. Mothers who can not afford any more children will suffer greatly, as we go back to families with eleven and twelve or more children. I have seen the great damage this can do to children who get little parenting because their mothers were always pregnant, tired, and miserable. We all must speak up and not allow this to happen.

Who's up for a leisurely drive through pretty towns and lovely little villages, through gorgeously forested mountains alongside meandering rivers, all the way to the stunning Pacific coast? If your answer is "I am!" then try the Highway 34 Scenic Byway.
This trip brings you from I5 through Corvallis and Philomath, past Marys Peak and Alsea Falls through the Coastal Range, all the way to Waldport, nestled on the coast of the Pacific Ocean. Along the way you'll pass plenty of opportunities for exploration and adventure.
Corvallis, Oregon has plenty to offer, from great restaurants to plenty of things to do and see. Stay the night here, and get your start on Highway 34 first thing in the morning, so you can spend your day enjoying the drive and exploring. If you need a little help planning your trip, or finding things to do in town for the evening, stop in to our visitors center at 420 NW 2nd Street. We'll be happy to help you out!
Philomath, Oregon is an adorable and busy little town situated along Highway 34. Must-see stops include the Benton County Museum and Soft Star Shoes (they give tours). While you're there, consider stopping by Eats & Treats Cafe for a quick bite to eat, or popping in to NutCakes for a sweet snack for the drive. Both the Nectar Creek and Marcotte Distilling are right in Philomath, too, so you may want to arrange a designated driver and do a bit of craft beverage tasting on the way.
Beautiful Marys Peak is just a short drive out of Philomath, down HW34. Turn off on the Marys Peak Access Road and drive up to the parking lot near the top of the mountain. Be prepared for a twisty-turny drive as you wind your way upwards. At the parking lot you'll find access to meadows, a rustic bathroom, hiking and biking trails, amazing views and great picnicking spots.
The Alsea Falls Recreation Area is just a short jaunt off HW34, about 10 miles along South Fork Road. Alsea Falls is a lovely place for hiking, biking, splashing in the river, or having a picnic. There's miles of trails to explore, two beautiful waterfalls, and plenty of pretty old and new growth forest.
There's no shortage of gorgeous scenery along the drive to the coast, and there's a few other great places to stop, too. Keep an eye out for the Thyme Garden, a great little place to stop for a quick bit of shopping and a stroll through some gorgeous gardens. Clemens Park is another option that offers hiking, splashing in the river, bathrooms, and great spots to picnic. And don't miss the Hayden Covered Bridge, one of only seven remaining covered bridges in Oregon that were built before 1920.
If you're feeling like maybe there's just too much to see and do on this drive for one day, don't worry! Book a stay at Leaping Lamb Farm, enjoy a peaceful night in homey comfort, and stretch your adventure across two days.
Waldport is a cute little coast town that butts right up to the Pacific Ocean. Be sure to stop by the Alsea Bay Historic Interpretive Center and check out the Fisher School (Five Rivers) Covered Bridge. Just a couple miles south of Waldport is the Beachside State Recreation Site, with plenty of beach to explore.
Visit www.Waldport.org to find more to see and do while you're there. Plan a stay in Waldport, and extend your trip with another gorgeous drive: the Pacific Coast Scenic Byway.

OWCH! Chad has been down with a pressure sore and assortment of other symptoms for the last few days and because of the way the furniture and bed are arranged in our room, I have to twist in this really funny way to get him positioned correctly, off his left butt (don't we all have two butts?). I had strained my right arm about 2 weeks before he was needing to be positioned like this, but now that he needs to be turned/positioned every few hours, my right arm HURTS!!!!!!!!!!
Also, to top it all off, you may recall if you have a stunning capacity for recalling details of other people's lives, that I broke my left foot and ended up having surgery on it. It was a 10 month ordeal that involved a huge amount of pain. Well, it hurts again. Went back to dr and this time I have an EXTRA bone in that same damn foot. I actually had it removed as a teenager but now it's grown back. So completely unrelated, I have 2 foot issues in one year. And guess what: I need surgery on it. ARGH!
OK, I just had to get that out of my system. I AM IN PAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At least at night I can take stronger meds for the pain (don't worry, they are prescribed to me for this). So if I make more grammatical errors, this is why.
Ami <---- who is irritated as hell at her falling apart body .... ARGH!

Hey everyone, stoked to upload new music. Been doing some deep thinking about purpose as an artist, direction, how one fits or unfits a mold, and how exciting it is to sometimes color outside of the lines in a coloring book. I quickly realized perhaps I am a bit overthinking it all and maybe I should just stop and make a mix, call it the day ;D I express myself best via music, and since I am not just one monoton expression I cannot just showcase one type of sound anymore. Here is a softer / richer deeper melodic side of me that tends to come out during bright sunrises and warm orange...info_outline Sound and Machine [Podcast] 01.20.19 - Aired on Dance Factory Radio, Chicago

A United Nations survey said Monday that there were still major shortcomings in business's approach to human rights and anti-corruption measures despite progress in adopting socially and environmentally responsible standards.
The first report on the corporate response to the UN's seven-year-old partnership with companies, the Global Compact, said there was "much room for advancement" on corporate assessments of their impact on human rights, reporting cases of corruption, and in overseeing their suppliers' compliance.
"The survey shows there are distinct areas where companies are excelling and others where they lag," it added.
The human rights group Amnesty International said the voluntary arrangement had not been effective so far and voiced frustration at the lack of enforcement of the 10 pledges dealing with human rights, labour, the environment and anti-corruption.
The report was released ahead of the biggest meeting yet on the UN's Global Compact in Geneva on Thursday and Friday.
It is due to bring together about 650 business executives, as well as ministers, campaign groups, and international organisations.
The 60 page survey of about 400 companies marks the first time the United Nations has tried to assess the implementation of its 10 principles by the Compact's near 4,000 strong corporate members.
The public benchmarking will now be annual, Global Compact Executive Director Georg Kell said.
Eighty-nine percent of companies said they gave employees greater say in policies on labour standards, more than 80 percent said they had measures against discrimination, while 69 percent allowed trade unions.
Half said they had set up policies against forced or child labour, while just 38 percent monitored labour standards in their supply chain.
Forty-three percent of the companies said they had environmental performance targets, but only a quarter to 29 percent had targets for sustainable consumption or production.
Sixty-one percent of companies claimed a "zero tolerance" policy towards corruption, but only seven percent said they publicised political donations and just 23 percent set sanctions for policy breaches.
Companies were largely monitoring human rights in the workplace. Only 31 percent conducted assessments on the broader risk their policies might pose for human rights, while just 16 percent examined their actual impact.
Kell told journalists companies had initially joined the Global Compact thinking they could use it to enhance their public relations.
"That has fundamentally changed, there has been a significant shift towards quality," he argued, underlining the increasing business risk involved in transgressions, and the growing implication of top level management in overseeing proper standards.
"We delisted 600 participants last year and we expect another 500 to be delisted this year," he added, citing shortcomings in their reporting.
However, the number of companies joining the Compact is growing by about one-third a year.
Amnesty International criticised the voluntary nature of the Compact, underlining that it did not replace a company's legal responsibility.
"I would say that we are very concerned that it isn't being very effective," Audrey Gaughran of Amnesty told AFP. "There is no analysis of the substance."
At least one of the companies with participants registered for the Geneva meeting, electric engineering giant Siemens, is embroiled in corruption investigations in Germany, including on suspicion of setting up a slush-fund to obtain foreign contracts.
"Siemens is now prepared to totally reconsider its engagement in the Global Compact and to take it far more seriously," Kell commented.

Summer has arrived, with two beautiful June days so far – long may that continue!
The bedding-out season has begun. Our youngest had a sunflower-planting frenzy a few weeks ago and these are now all large enough to be planted out, so we've given them a flower-bed all to themselves and this should make a great show in August.
The polyanthus, which we bedded out in the autumn near the house have gone back to their 'resting' beds near the compost heap, giving us a good space to plant out the Cosmos, probably this week.
Gradually over the next couple of weeks, the greenhouse will empty.
This weekend, we've been focussing on the herbaceous borders, filling in one or two spaces with our young Thalictrum and Rudbeckia Goldsturm plants which we grew from seed last year. They've come on well, although not sure whether we'll get any flowers from them this year.
There are more herbaceous plants coming on but I don't want to put them out until they are big enough to hold their own against the more rampant occupants!
The apple and pear blossom has been excellent this year, with all the trees now in blossom. Sadly the pictures don't really do justice and they certainly don't capture the wonderful scent that currently fills the air!
Under the apples, the first of the wild flowers are coming through, including the rather-fetching bluebells – interestingly we have a whitebell as well – presumably a sport, as it grows next to a larger clump of bluebells!
Meanwhile the garden is full of baby birds, including 8 pheasant chicks which emerged from their nest atop our compost heap early in the week!

As Julio Urias himself put it, God gave him a bad left eye but a good left arm which has become a source of blessing for him and his family. The Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher, who is easily identifiable thanks to his sloppy left eye, became the youngest starting pitcher to make their Major League Baseball debut since 2005, at the age of 19.
Urias has since become a revelation for his team by becoming the youngest Dodgers pitcher to ever pitch in the post-season. Read on to find out more about the career, family, earnings, and eye of the relief pitcher.
Early Life and Career
Julio Urias was born Julio Cesar Urias Acosta to Juana Isabell and Carlos Urias on the 12th of August, 1996, in Culiacan, Mexico. According to his parents, Urias has almost always been the youngest and most talented player on any field he found himself playing on while growing up, after having learned how to play the game with his father right from the time he was a toddler.
So impressive was Urias' talent that by the age of 10, he began joining the Mexico national team on road trips before he later started playing with them. By the time he was 14, he met the legendary Los Angeles Dodgers Scout Mike Brito, who had been hearing good things about his talent. Brito and the Dodgers kept an eye out for Urias who continued to perfect his game by playing for the Diablos Rojos del Mexico of the Mexican League. The Dodgers waited until Urias turned 16 on the 12th of August, 2012 before they signed him.
After agreeing to join the Los Angeles based team, Julio Urias was assigned to the Great Lakes Loons in the Midwest League. Despite making his professional debut almost a year after signing papers, on the 25th of May, 2013, Urias was still able to become the youngest player in the league. He celebrated his first game by striking out six batters over three shutout innings. After a year with the Loons, Urias was assigned to the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes of the California League where his performances earned him the Dodgers' Minor League Pitcher of the Year award as he also earned a selection to play at the 2014 All-Star Futures Game for the World team.
Following his impressive showings, the Dodgers invited Urias to attend its major league spring training camp ahead of the 2015 season. Urias was, however, the first to be cut from the roster as he was assigned to the AA Tulsa Drillers of the Texas League. After a few months, he was promoted to the AAA Oklahoma City Dodgers after which he now finally secured a spot in the Dodgers' roster ahead of the 2016 season.
Julio Urias' Net Worth
Julio Urias' net worth is unknown. The player, who has only played in two major league baseball seasons, as of 2018, has not been able to get his big payday which will prompt popular celebrity net worth calculating magazines and websites like Forbes and celebritynetworth.com to come up with a figure.
In his first season in the majors in 2017, the Los Angeles Dodgers, which is itself the second most valuable team in all of Major League Baseball with a value of $2.4 billion, paid Urias $540 thousand. In his second year, he put pen to paper on a $550 thousand contract.

What Happened To His Eye?
The first thing that is noticed when looking at Julio Urias is that his left eye appears to either be lazy or tired. Unfortunately, that is not the case as the pitcher's droopy eyelid is as a result of the three procedures he received as a child to remove a benign tumor. The operations were deemed successful at the time and Urias can see with the eye even though it appears to be closed all the time.
In 2015, Urias, who was still playing in the minor leagues, elected to undergo a cosmetic surgery to further improve the eye as well as remove all periorbital benign mass.
Height and Weight
In Major League Baseball, where the average height of players who play as pitchers is 6 feet 0 inches, Julio Urias is among the shorter ones with a height of 5 feet 11 inches or 1.83 m. He further weighs about 98 kg or 216 pounds, which is about 12kg or 26 pounds more than the average baseball player.

The Institute for Startup KAIST (ISK) hosted its annual KAIST ISK Forum 2016 on the subject of "Start-ups in Asia". The forum was held in both the Daejeon Campus and the ISK Center in Pangyo on November 1 and October 31, respectively.
The forum had been initiated with the mission of "nurturing entrepreneurial culture, creating ecosystem for startups, and helping Korean startups go global." Now in its third year, it includes presentations from notable speakers, panel discussions, and opportunities to interact with people in the field of entrepreneurship and startups.
This year's event was decorated with many professionals from the global arena. They discussed their contribution to the growth and development of startups and present views on kindling the startup movement in Korea.
First to present was Benjamin Joffe, a Partner at HAX, which is an accelerator leading the area of hardware investment. Joffe himself is known as an angel investor; he gave a lecture on the subject of "How Hardware Can Change Your Life: The Age of Global Hardware Startups."
Next in line was Dr. Koji Osawa, the managing director and co-founder of Global Catalyst Partners (GCP). Established in 1999, GCP is a venture capital fund that primarily invests in developing IT companies. Dr. Osawa, with extensive experience in business and investment in tech companies in Japan and US, talked about "Up-to-date Japanese Start-ups."
Third, Ronald Yu, founder and CEO of PKLOT, a widely-used parking app in Taiwan, invited us to "Be Bold to Fight with Failure" while sharing his experiences in entrepreneurship.
Subsequently, two separate speakers presented at each location. In the Daejeon Campus, Director of Startup Alliance Jung Wook Lim presented on the "Growing Startup Ecosystem in Korea." Startup Alliance is a non-profit organization to foster a Korean startup ecosystem by connecting entrepreneurs, startups, companies, and the government. In Pangyo, Head of Growth at SendBird Mark Lee shared his insights through the topic of "From Korea to Global - Why We're Silicon Valley First and How We are Winning It." SendBird is a chat and messaging API provider for mobile and web services based in San Francisco.
Lastly, Founder and CEO of CAPBRIDGE Dr. Steven Fang gave a lecture on the "Seed to Exit with Innovative Funding Approach; a Singapore Experience." With over 20 years of experience in business development and management, Dr. Fang shared his accrued knowledge on the issue.

It was a fairly ambitious project over a two day time frame. The Teen chose this not so easy recipe for a six-tiered chocolate cake with salted caramel filling and a chocolate icing from Martha Stewart, recipe here. There were a few hiccups, but it turned out brilliantly nonetheless… Anything made at home has to trump a store-bought cake, in my opinion. But that's a totally subjective opinion. :)
The Teen made the salted caramel the day before assembling the birthday cake. We have a candy thermometer so we tried to stick firmly to the instructions and reaching the 238F specified rather emphatically in the recipe. The caramel was brilliant… it tasted heavenly just on its own. We could have stopped here and simply served this warmed over vanilla ice cream for a terrific dessert.
The Teen, with Mrs. MM's help, also baked three cakes, and carefully cut them in half, with her supervisor, Ginger, the chocolate lab, looking on with a critical eye. Ginger totally approved of the near perfect layers of cake. But being only fluent in doglish, Ginger missed the instructions in the recipe that suggested trimming the tops of the cakes to have fully flat layers. :) It's ironic that chocolate labs (or all dogs for that matter) shouldn't eat chocolate, so she was particularly kind to oversee this project despite being unable to taste the final product.
Slather on copious amounts of salted caramel…
…add another layer of cake…
…and so on. The Teen put a whole cake on top, making for only five layers and while a bit messy, things looked really promising at this point. It went into the fridge for an hour for the cake to set…
Chocolate frosting was added to the the cake and it was chilled until just before serving.
A thick slice of cake for Marketman. The salted caramel was absorbed into the cake, unlike the apparently food-styled photo in Ms. Stewart's example, but it tasted stunning good. Not terribly sweet, but clearly incredibly rich. And as I stated up top, with the Teen, Mrs. MM and Ginger working as a team, this cake was bound to taste like nothing else you have experienced in recent memory… :)
(Belated?) Happy Birthday MM! Anything made with lots of love will definitely trump any store bought food.
Looking forward to your bday feast post.
Btw, I like Martha Stewart and religiously go to BookSale to try to find books and back-issued magazine of hers. Found 15 books so far. :)
Aug 22, 2012 | 5:32 pm
I am drooling. The Teen did a great job. Belated happy birthday, MM!
Aug 22, 2012 | 6:13 pm
Happy Birthday Marketman!!! Wishing you all the best!
Aug 22, 2012 | 6:34 pm

Aug 22, 2012 | 6:42 pm
Perfect! Happy Birthday MM we wish good health, long life, vigor and more successes to come to you and your family! cheers!
Aug 22, 2012 | 7:15 pm
There goes the diet …
So what do I have to offer the Teen as compensation for my own cake?
Aug 22, 2012 | 7:44 pm
DELICIOUS!! Craving for a slice right now..
Aug 22, 2012 | 8:07 pm
Happy birthday MarketMan! May you be always blessed with love, joy, peace in your heart and home! Cake loooks goood!
Aug 22, 2012 | 8:20 pm
Happy birthday! Congratulations to the Teen for a yummy looking cake!
Aug 22, 2012 | 8:44 pm
Mmmm, looks yummy! This cake reminded me of the motherload of chocolate cake I had at Claim Jumper :)
Aug 22, 2012 | 9:27 pm
I want to make one too! haha
Aug 22, 2012 | 9:57 pm
Looks divine! Happy Birthday and many more happy solar returns, MM!

Happy Birthday Marketman!!!! I love the shirt on the last photo :-)
Aug 22, 2012 | 10:57 pm
Happy Birthday!!!!
Aug 22, 2012 | 11:39 pm
You'll never believe it but I was just reading the recipe for this on my Martha Stewart back issue (Thanksgiving 2011 right?) and was asking myself if I had the guts to try it.
Do you take the caramel off the stove once it hits the temperature indicated?
Aug 22, 2012 | 11:40 pm
Definitely a labor of love.. As the saying goes, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. More blessings your way, MM!
Aug 23, 2012 | 12:50 am
Belated Happy b-day MM and Best Wishes….
Aug 23, 2012 | 1:55 am
that looks like a very chocolicious cake! Happy Birthday MM!
Aug 23, 2012 | 2:13 am
Happy Birthday MarketMan! That cake looks to die for. I like the concept of the caramel being absorbed into the cake – it's like a mystery ingredient that adds richness to the cake.

Two tips on your birthday:
(1) Forget the past, you can't change it.
(2) Forget the present, I didn't get you one.

Aug 23, 2012 | 9:16 am
Happy birthday, Marketman! Cheers to the tag team that made the cake. We actually tried a similar recipe a few years back. But we couldn't keep the top layers of the cake from sliding off. Maybe too much filling in between?
But this one looks just really yummy + it's made with love. :)

Happy birthday MM!
I won't bet on being able to really come out with anything on the Martha Stewart site exactly as they show it. Everything there is food styled to make that perfect photo. I wont be surprised if the caramel was some kind of glue because reality is, the caramel will meld with the chocolate cake.

Belated Happy Birthday MM!
Since this is a post on baking, can I ask you someting? I have a 4 year old cooking range with an electric oven. Relatively good brand – ELBA. But I have issues with the temperature control. Everyime, i try to bake something, the baking time is always way shorter versus the one in the recipe and i always burn the cake, cookie etc. So i started using a thermometer and found out the actual temp is about 30-50 degrees higher versus what is in the setting (using the dial installed on the oven). Is this the usual case with commercial ovens? I'm so disappointed because that cooking range was not cheap. So I guess I now have to rely on a separate thermometer to get my temp settings right.
By the way, the cake looks so delicious, i might try to make it this weekend :)

Happy birthday MM. Hope you had fun.
Aug 23, 2012 | 6:17 pm
MM, Happy 4*th Birthday! The cake looks a treat and I am sure I. was too thrilled to bake her daddy a cake :-)
Cynthia, I have ALWAYS had trouble with my Elba. My suggestion to you is call your Elba service center and tell them that you need someone to regulate the temperature of your oven. I absolutely loathe my range, which I bought on the basis of the width of the oven and the fish burner. Sigh.
Aug 23, 2012 | 6:54 pm
happy birthday!
Aug 23, 2012 | 8:51 pm
May you have many, many, more years and cakes to come!…happiness always :)

Happy birthday MM!
Aug 24, 2012 | 3:09 am
Happy Birthday MM! :) You don't look your age, let me start and end with that :)
Aug 24, 2012 | 5:56 am
@Susie – your problem is not common. If you take a close look at cooking shows like Top Chef, you'll sometimes see a separate, internal thermometer in the oven when the recipe involves baking. And most chefs/bakers say (either in cookbooks, interviews or their own blogs) that a key success tip is to not rely on the thermometer installed on your oven, but to also use an (unlinked) internal thermometer for good measure. That, and to find out where the hot spots in your oven are.

truly a labor of love…..cheers!!
Aug 24, 2012 | 9:06 am
looks fantastic! i'm way past my teens and i still would never dare to make a cake from scratch, much less one complete with a brilliant salted caramel filling and chocolate frosting. kudos! :)
Aug 24, 2012 | 9:21 am
@wendy darling, thanks. That is exactly how we have been baking with this ELba since I bought it 7 years ago. It is an incredibly unreliable piece of umm, well, kitchen equipment. In the time I have had it, it has been overhauled thrice, the rusted out parts changed out and has to be serviced thrice a year. In fact, Elba doesn't even touch it any longer after their service people in Cebu admitted they couldn't fix it. It may be a lemon but they refused to exchange the unit after a month of having owned it. I cannot wait to move so that I can dump the silly thing!
Aug 24, 2012 | 9:37 am
Better late than never. Happy Birthday MM! I hope it was a good one. Sorry, I have just been enjoying too much my disconnect to the internet as I count my last few days in Manila.
Thanks again.

Belated Happy Birthday! =)
Aug 24, 2012 | 11:28 am
awwww that was sweet! Happy birthday (better late than never). I enjoy reading your blog. :)
Aug 24, 2012 | 6:26 pm
Happy Belated Birthday, MM! Congrats to the teen and Mrs. MM for that chocolate cake. It looks fantastic and so yummy……..
Aug 25, 2012 | 4:02 am
@ Susie – whoops! I had meant to say "not UNcommon"
In any case, I agree with MM that 50 degree difference is major/extreme. Had my company been the one to commission to your kitchen, we would have declared that appliance "failed" and advise you to reject/return it. And this may be small comfort for you but I've heard that the manufacturer's line is notorious for such wacky performance (even in the Western hemisphere).
Anyhoo, my wish list for MM's next EB is to meet both the Viking and Ginger in person ;)
Aug 25, 2012 | 1:48 pm
Happy birthday marketman!
Just want to share with you interesting feature on truffles from 60 Minutes, the trade and the threat on Chinese truffles…
Have a good weekend!

Belated Happy Birthday, MM!!! Here's to many, many more years of happy blogging! God bless you and your loving family. Thank you for all your wonderful posts! Cheers! *\(^-^)/* PS: Beautiful delicious-looking cake by Teen & Mrs MM! I remember chocolate cake was my favorite cake when I was living in the Philippines but somehow here in the States it does not seem to taste as delicious as I remembered from way back then. The photo of teen's chocolate cake triggered some happy memories for me! ;)
Aug 25, 2012 | 8:18 pm
Happy Birthday MM. Saw you a while ago at Eats more fun in the Philippines at GMA News TV, again a segment about acupunctured lechon with you fluently explaining in tagalog. :)
Aug 25, 2012 | 9:13 pm
Happy Birthday MM!!!
I want to make that cake! Do you think the salted Caramel would work with a Mascarpone and Cream Cheese topping/filling? Maybe with some nuts (Pecans, Walnuts, Pistachios, or maybe even local Pili nuts)?
Aug 26, 2012 | 6:44 am
Happy Happy Birthday Marketman!!! The cake looks very delish!!!
Aug 26, 2012 | 11:11 am

Happy (belated) birthday, MM! That cake will give me a sweet tooth where none has existed before. Must be the salted caramel that appealed to my senses. (I have a "salt" tooth rather than sweet but boy, I'd pounce on that cake anytime!) Good job, Teen and of course, Ginger. :)

Cyprus PIO: Turkish Press and Other Media, 05-04-05
Cyprus Press and Information Office: Turkish Cypriot Press Review Directory - Previous Article - Next Article
From: The Republic of Cyprus Press and Information Office Server at <http://www.pio.gov.cy/>TURKISH PRESS AND OTHER MEDIA No.63/05 05.04.05
[01] Gul speaks of steps by the Islamic conference to legalize the faits accomplis of the Turkish invasionAnkara Anatolia news agency (04.04.05) reported from Jeddah that the Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul met Prof. Dr. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, the General Secretary of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), on Monday and handed over Turkey's donation to the organization worth 1 million USD.
After the meeting, Gul and Ihsanoglu held a joint press conference. Gul said that the organization had to make some reforms to meet the expectations of the Islam world, and noted: ''Islam world still has many problems, and it is our responsibility to solve these problems.''
Gul stated that the Islam world should pay more interest to the regions where human tragedies were experienced, especially in Africa.
On lifting of the so-called embargoes on the occupied areas of the Republic of Cyprus, Mr Gul said that the OIC was taking some steps to lift the economic, political and cultural 'embargoes'.
On the other hand, Ihsanoglu said that Turkey was playing a role of a bridge between Islam countries and the European Union (EU).
Noting that the 32nd meeting of the foreign ministers of OIC countries would be held in Yemen at the end of June, Ihsanoglu said that Yemen would hand over the acting presidency of the OIC foreign ministers to Turkey during this meeting.
Ihsanoglu said that the OIC aimed to be more active in political matters from now on, and stated that Turkey had invited the OIC to a meeting to be held in Istanbul within this month as a part of regional initiative on Iraq.
After the press conference, Gul visited the Islamic Development Bank and met some officials.
The Turkish Foreign Minister rounded up his talks in Saudi Arabia and left Jeddah for Abu Dhabi in the UAE. He will hold talks in Abu Dhabi tomorrow with Head of State Sheikh Khalifa bin Zahid al-Nahyan, Crown Prince Sheikh Muhammad bin Zahid al-Nahyan, deputy commander in chief, and Deputy Prime Minister Sheikh Hamdan bin Zahid al-Nahyan, who is also responsible for foreign affairs.
[02] The occupation regime was represented as 'Turkish Cypriot State' in the 4th Islamic Conference of Tourism Ministers of the OIC in DakarUnder the title: 'Islamic hope for our tourism', Turkish Cypriot VATAN newspaper (05.04.05) reports that the so-called Director of the Office for Tourism Promotion, which is attached to the 'Ministry of Economy and Tourism', Mr Mehmet Basel, and the 'Foreign Ministry Counsellor', Mr Ahmet Yonluer, represented the 'TRNC' in the 4th Islamic Conference of Tourism Ministers in the Islamic Conference Organization (OIC) held last month in Dakar, Senegal.
The paper writes that this was the first participation of the 'TRNC' in the Ministers of Tourism Meeting of the OIC and that it took its place as observer with the name 'Turkish Cypriot State'.
The paper writes that at the conference the two Turkish Cypriot 'officials' held useful bilateral contacts during which decisions were taken for cooperation in the field of tourism.
The paper writes that this was the fourth conference of the Ministers of Islamic Countries, it was attended by 37 countries, and that the next 5th meeting will take place in 2007 in Azerbaijan.
[03] 'Papadopoulos is the obstacle to the solution and bigger obstacle is the Greek Cypriot people that support him'Under the above title, the Turkish Cypriot daily KIBRIS newspaper (05.04.05) reports that Mr John Swift, the ambassador of Ireland to Nicosia, delivered yesterday a speech at the illegal Eastern Mediterranean University. The paper writes the following:
'Noting that he sees the leader of the Greek Cypriot Administration Tassos Papadopoulos as an obstacle to the solution John Swift, Irelands Ambassador to Nicosia, has said: However, there is a bigger problem than this. It is the Greek Cypriot people that support him with great majority.
Irelands ambassador to Nicosia, John Swift delivered a lecture yesterday within the framework of the series of lectures organized by the Eastern Mediterranean University with the participation of foreign ambassadors in Cyprus as lecturers.
Addressing students and teachers at the Conference Room of EMUs Communications Faculty, Swift dealt with the common and different aspects of the problems in Ireland and Cyprus in his lecture under the title The Expectation for a Solution in Cyprus. He transferred with his own view the changes from which the sides in Cyprus passed in order to reach a solution to the Cyprus problem which is a problem special for the island.
Subtitle: The Cyprus problem is inter-communal problem, not international
In his speech Swift said that the problem in Cyprus is more inter-communal problem than (as the Greek Cypriot Government Spokesman said) international problem.
From the point of view of the will for a solution, the Irish ambassador noted that there were many evident changes during the last years in the countries that are a side in the Cyprus problem and said: As Erdogan is not Ecevit, Talat is not Denktas.
Swift argued that Greece is now aiming at contributing to the cooperation and stability in the region and the world and noted that Greece supported Turkeys accession to the EU.
Asking how the changes in Ankara and Athens could reflect onto the strategy of the Greek Cypriot Administration, Ambassador Swift talked about two alternatives and said the following:
(The first is that) they will solve this problem with the help of the international community. If they do this they must think the guarantor powers, the UN and Annan, the EU, the EU Commission. I have not seen a clue that shows that they have chosen such an alternative. As second strategy either they will see the Turkish Cypriot community as a hostile power that they could administrate or they will accept it as a future partner the wishes of which they will respect, the voice of which they will be able to listen and as a structure the leaders of which they could persuade. I have seen no clue that they have chosen such an alternative.
Swift said that both alternatives will have disadvantages for the Greek Cypriot Administration and that they were not ready for the consequences they will cause.
Subtitle: The yes vote of the Turkish Cypriots shocked the Europeans
Noting that the Turks must live happy with the results of the referendum, Swift said: In fact in the eyes of the Europeans you were the side that has always been saying no. When you said yes everybody was shocked.
Ambassador Swift, who said that the accession of Turkey to the EU cannot be realized before 15 years, noted that he was optimistic for a solution in Cyprus. Swift stated that the opening of the border gates and the elections in the North must be understood as signs to the good direction, but in spite of this there are some very difficult obstacles.
Stressing that he believed that Talat, whom he considered as the definite winner in the race for the presidency, will make steps for bringing together the two communities, as an elected leader the legitimacy of whom has been proved, Swift noted that new windows of opportunities for a solution are seen in the horizon between May and August'.
[04] Serdar Denktas held contacts in JeddahTurkish Cypriot CUMHURIYET newspaper (05.04.05) reports that the so-called Foreign Minister of Ankara�s puppet regime in occupied Cyprus, Mr Serdar Denktas, returned to the occupied areas after holding contacts with the General Secretary of the Islamic Conference Organization (OIC), officials of the Gulf Cooperation Council and the Islamic Development Bank.
Mr Serdar Denktas made statements to the effect that from now on the development of the bilateral relations between the occupied areas of Cyprus and the countries members of the OIC will be easier.
Mr Denktas stressed that this was his first 'official' visit to the Organization as 'Foreign Minister' of the occupation regime during which he met with the General Secretary of the OIC, Mr Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, who is Turkish, to whom he raised the decisions taken by the OIC in Istanbul and asked for his help in the occupation regime�s effort to establish relations with the Islamic countries.
Referring to his contacts with the Islamic Development Bank, Mr Serdar Denktas said that a delegation of the Bank will visit the occupied by Turkish troops part of Cyprus to inspect the projects being implemented there.
He also stated that in parallel to the projects being implemented they want to establish an area of high technology in the occupied areas and to this end technical and financial assistance might be asked from the Islamic Bank.
[05] Soyer: Cooperation with those who resigned from the Justice and Development Party (JDP) in TurkeyFerdi Sabit Soyer, the General Secretary of the Republican Turkish Party - United Forces (RTP-UF) writes in Turkish Cypriot YENIDUZEN (05.04.05), under the above title, that there were two current basic political developments, to which he wants to focus on. 'One' he says, 'is open expression against the politically wrong diagnosis of the Papadopoulos administration in the south in the solution process of the Cyprus problem'.
'The other one' adds Soyer, 'is the situation created by resignations in the ruling JDP in Turkey'.
In both cases, claims Soyer, the objective is to 'freeze' solution efforts based on the 'Annan Plan'. Regarding the first point, he repeats the known Turkish Cypriot allegations that the ruling circles in the south want to impose their will on the Turkish Cypriots and to 'freeze' a solution based on the Annan Plan. That is to maintain the status quo.
'The other point' adds Soyer, 'is related to the deputies who resigned from the JDP. Recently two resigned deputies arrived in Cyprus and met with Eroglu.
Then they talked to local TV stations. What did they say? They said: `Until 3rd of October, there will be resignations one by one from the JDP. Then a group of 50 will resign en mass. This way there will be a break in the 3rd October accession process with the EU. Thus there will be a break as well in the solution process of the Cyprus problem based on the Anna Plan�
'You see, this way, those in the south, for the sake of Hellenism interests and those in north, for the sake of Turkish interests would get rid of a solution that envisages bicommunal, bioregional federation'.
He concludes by urging those pro-solution forces both in the north and in the south to wage a stronger struggle against those in both sides who want to maintain the status quo.
[06] Talat is sorry that he is unable to issue passports, because the Annan Plan was rejectedTurkish Cypriot daily YENIDUZEN newspaper (05.04.05) publishes the interview given by the leader of the Republican Turkish Party-United Forces, and so-called prime minister of the occupation regime Mehmet Ali Talat to Turkish daily HURRIYET newspaper (04.04.05). In his interview, regarding acquiring Cyprus Republic�s passport, Talat said: 'I have been offered to acquire Cyprus Republic�s passport. I have always rejected it. In those years I was repairing refrigerators, but I did not get a passport thinking that it might be used against me in the future. I feel bad. Had the Annan plan been approved and peace regained, now I should have been issuing passports'.
[07] Eroglu supports that Turkey is reviewing its policy as regards CyprusTurkish Cypriot daily KIBRIS newspaper (05.04.05) reports that Mr Dervis Eroglu, the chairman of the National Unity Party (NUP) stated that Turkey is reviewing its policy as regards Cyprus.
Mr Eroglu, who is NUPs candidate for the forthcoming 17 April 'presidential elections', made these statements in the framework of his 'presidential campaign'.
'The news that come from Turkey in the last days show that Turkey has seen the realities in its Cyprus policy and is going towards changes', he said.
[08] A five-star hotel will be built in the place of the Severis flour factory in occupied LefkosiaTurkish Cypriot daily KIBRIS newspaper (05.04.05) reports that a five-start hotel will be built in the place of the Severis Flour factory in occupied Lefkosia.
The building, which has been vacant since 1963, has been assigned to the PARAMARIBO Tourism Ltd one year ago. The so-called municipality of occupied Lefkosia, was not informed about this development since it has the right to use the building. According to the paper, following the 14 December 'elections', and the forming of the pseudogovernment, a decision was made by the 'ministerial council' so that the Severis Flour factory to be used by the so-called municipality of occupied Lefkosia. However, this decision was revoked without the 'municipality' being informed and the building was assigned to the PARAMARIBO Tourism Ltd. After this development the so-called Lefkosia municipality started a prosecution against the 'ministry of tourism' of the occupation regime. The pseudogovernment settled the matter amicably and the municipality of occupied Lefkosia was given another new building in the place of Severis Flour factory.
PARAMARIBO Tourism Ltd has started the works in the area a week ago, after the issue regarding the building was settled. As the paper writes the six-floor building, which is located in the Dereboyu area, one of the busiest areas of occupied Lefkosia and has stayed idle for so many years, it will be completely demolished. A five-star hotel with a capacity of 256 beds that will cost 18 trillions Turkish lira will be built in the place of the old flour mills. The works are expected to be finished in two years.
[09] Greek Cypriot property in occupied Karpass peninsula has been transferred to a British firmUnder the title 'Greek Cypriot property was transferred to a British', Turkish Cypriot daily AFRIKA newspaper (05.04.05) reports that property in occupied Karpass peninsula, which belongs to Greek Cypriots, has been transferred to the British firm 'The British Lewis Trust Group'.
The paper writes that the property, in which the construction of a tourist complex under the name 'Port Barbaros' with a 2000 bed-capacity was planned, has been transferred by the �Loyal and Royal� company which belongs to Mrs Sidika Atalay to the British firm. The amount of the transfer was not announced. The businesswoman was assigned a 270-square meters area in occupied Karpass peninsula, five years ago in order to build in this area a big tourist complex.
Mrs Atalay and the owner of 'The British Lewis Trust Group', Mr David Lewis, gave a joint press conference about this issue.
Mr Lewis stated in the press conference that the new tourist complex that will be built, will serve tourists with high income.
Mrs Atalay stated that the 'Port Barbaros', which will be a complex consisting of a marina, a four-star hotel, a five-star deluxe hotel, hotel apartments, two hot spring resort spa, one conference centre and a casino will be now built by 'The British Lewis Trust Group'.
[10] Sener Levent asks the Irish Ambassador: 'If the Cyprus problem is not an international problem, why so many countries thrust their nose in this issue'?The Turkish Cypriot journalist, Sener Levent writes, inter alia, the following in his daily column in AFRIKA (05.04.05):
'I am sure that you have heard it and when you did you froze up. The police have launched a legal process against a Maronite because he uprooted without permission 13 carob trees and four olive trees from land belonging to him in Kormakitis village. The 75 year-old Ilias Ftanou lives in southern Cyprus, but his land is in the north. Now I found out how sensitive we are for our nature, our environment! We caught the old Maronite red-handed!
However, nothing green was left in Kyrenia and no one of us cared. We ruined the olive trees. We left no orange or lemon tree. Neither locust tree nor mimosa. We uprooted the trees from all the Greek Cypriot land and built concrete on it. Who knows how many mass graves remained under this concrete. How many human bones have become the foundations of new apartments?
Anyhow, is everybody now in this country not being accused of clearing oranges from his own garden? Is everybody not being followed by the police because he entered without permission in his own yard? Treacherous Europe! Does it not see these things? Yet, how skilful we are? We have taken the properties from the Greek Cypriots and now we are selling them to the British! 270 donums in Karpass. First there was allotment. Then there was a turnover. Great work.
However, what have essentially hurt me were the words of the Ambassador of Ireland Mr Swift. Because of them I refreshed my knowledge in history. Did you hear what he said? He said that the Cyprus problem was an inter-communal problem, not an international problem! And I thought it was a problem of the Middle East. We have come into this situation because of the petrol that is under our nose. The bloody Americans and British incited us to fight with each other. They have given us guns to kill each other. They were afraid of Cyprus becoming a second Cuba in Eastern Mediterranean. Kissinger said to the Turkish ships to move. And how many things like these I have been thinking! However, the situation changed when I heard Mr Swift. Only I have to ask the Irish Ambassador some things so that I overcome some last obstacles in my mind: Since this problem is not an international problem, then why so many countries thrust their nose into this issue? Why in the plan called Annan Plan, Britain, Turkey and Greece are guarantor powers for ever? '.
[11] The so-called Minister of Interior tells foreigners not to worry about being arrested in Europe because buying occupied Greek Cypriot properties is not a serious crimeUnder the title 'Exclusive: Government gives its pledge to foreign property owners. Relax no harm will come to any of you, promises Murat', Turkish Cypriot weekly Cyprus Today (02-08.04.05) publishes statements made by the so-called Minister of Interior of the regime the Turkish Republic set up in occupied Cyprus under the name 'Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus' ('TRNC').
Mr Murat calls on foreigners, who were lured into buying properties the Greek Cypriots were forced to abandon at gun-point in 1974, 'to relax and know that no harm will come to them in the face of Greek Cypriot legal and propaganda campaigns'.
He also gives information of how Ankara�s subservient regime plans to sell out the Greek Cypriot properties by speeding up the process. The paper writes the following:
'On property, he said plans were being laid to speed up the procedure for granting building permits and permission for foreigners to buy property.
One likely measure was to give authority to more bodies to grant building permits.
Improvements in staffing, technology and coordination were also being considered in order to push permission-to-buy applications through more quickly.
The minister is currently sending 15-20 applications to the Council of Ministers weekly, but he hopes this might soon rise to 40-50.
'The problem is the bureaucratic functioning of the state, which we are working to correct', he said.
Mr Murat underlined the importance of the construction sector to the 'TRNC' economy, saying it was the main contributor to growth and 'fed' 61 other sectors including quarries, suppliers of construction materials, lawyers and architects.
'Thus, we have to protect the sector and also provide incentives to it' he said, adding that talk of a slump in sales was unfounded.
'The applications in June 2004 were 180. The figure for January was 110. The applications this month, up to the 30th, are 156. There is no such thing as a crisis in the sector it�s a seasonal thing'.
Mr Murat went on: 'What we are experiencing is a construction boom, and one of the main reasons for this boom is the demand for property from foreign people.
'The level of sales in previous years 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 with demand at around 300-350 was normal. Last year it reached 2,827 an extraordinary increase in the applications for permission to purchase property'.
In fact, applications last year alone exceeded the total number between 2,500 and 2,600 during the preceding 30 years.
But Mr Ozkan silenced speculation of a whosesale 'sell-off' taking place, pointing out that foreign-ownership still only amounted to 0.3 per cent of all private property in the 'TRNC'. Even in the Girne (occupied Kyrenia) area, where such ownership is highest, foreign households only amount to 1.6 percent.
Addressing the Orams case, and recent suggestions in the South that European arrest warrants might be issued for 'illegal possession of property', Mr Murat urged foreign owners to 'relax'.
'The Greek Cypriots, as they do in every case, are trying to disconcert the foreigners. Their attitude towards the North is not just in the issue of property. They are trying to isolate the North from the world in every aspect,' he said.
Mr Murat dismissed the talk of arrest warrants, saying such a move was related to serious crime.
'Disagreements on property are solved within the courts, and arresting someone because of (such) disagreements is out of the question these are not criminal cases.
'By choosing this path, the Greek Cypriots are making fools of themselves. The foreigners should relax and know that no harm will come to them. We are the guarantee of it'.
Mr Murat also replied to the issue of the colonizers brought in from Turkey in the framework of an overall plan to 'Turkify' Cyprus, implemented systematically since 1974 with the protection of the 40,000 Turkish troops.
The paper writes the following after an introduction on the recent murder of Anne and Reece Mahoney in occupied Lapithos.
'Mr Murat agreed that a call by Cyprus Today for all people entering the `TRNC� to be required to show a passport merited government consideration, and commented: 'We cannot say that crimes are 100 per cent committed by people coming from Turkey, but it is true that 50 per cent of criminals in jail came from Turkey as illegal immigrants.
Under 'partially enforced' new immigration laws, since January anyone arriving in the country for work must have a passport, while Turkish citizens simply visiting on holiday need only show an identity card.
So far, there has been an amnesty on illegal workers who arrived before January, but they are required to obtain a passport and work permit if they wish to remain.
Anyone found in breach of the new law will be dealt with when the law comes into full force after June, said Mr Murat, facing a fine of double the minimum wage for each day they outstay their permitted time and, ultimately, deportation.
'The issue of controlling entry is important, and (a matter on which we have agreements with Turkey. Those entering (the `TRNC�) will have to give details on how much money they have brought, the address where they will stay and the reason why they came. If we are not satisfied with the answers they give, they will be sent back.'
In another column under the title: 'Developers abandon Vounos Plans', the paper reports about the concern of the Turkish Cypriots that the uncontrolled development on Greek Cypriot properties is spreading over historical areas of archaeological value.
The paper also publishes statements by Mr Cemal Bulutogullari, managing director of the company Sercem Construction Ltd., and Chairman of Centinkaya Sports Club, whose car was a target of a bomb explosion in occupied Nicosia last week.
The paper writes the following: 'Developers have abandoned plans to build on the Bronze Age burial site of Vounos, it was revealed this week, dispelling fresh public concern over the fate of the historical site.
Fears had been aroused among local residents after it was noticed that construction of villas had started on what they believed was a listed area.
But officials from the Department of Antiquities and Museums who went to the site on Monday confirmed that, although the building was taking place right next to the necropolis, it was not on part of the ancient tombs area listed in various archaeological surveys.
The development firm responsible for the project said that it had been agreed with the department that work could start on an eight-donum piece of land to the north of the Vounos hillside, east of Girne (occupied Kyrenia).
Cemal Bulutogullari, managing director of Sercem Construction Ltd, confirmed that 10 villas were being built on the land and that the construction site had been boarded to the south in order not to encroach on the historical area.
'We have withdrawn our case against the government for damages and we have handed over the title deeds covering 31 donums to the government and are now awaiting compensation, or to be given an alternative piece of land,' said Mr Bulutogullari.
'We would rather not build on the (Vounos) site it would be bad publicity and we are naturally concerned about the reputation of our company', he said.

Nalin A Ratnayake began his career as a aerospace research engineer, a role he continues today despite a detour along the way. He holds a B.S.E. and M.S. in Aerospace Engineering and has published 11 peer-reviewed technical papers on supersonic air-breathing propulsion, environmentally responsible aviation technologies, and advanced access-to-space systems.
After changing careers, Nalin completed an M.Ed. through the Boston Teacher Residency, focusing his studies on the connections between scientific literacy and social justice, particularly in the context of urban schools and communities.
After five years of teaching Physics and Engineering at an urban public high school in Boston, Nalin recently returned to engineering, at a research center near Norfolk, Virgina. He currently works in launch vehicle aerodynamics, and is in training to become a flight project manager.
Nalin writes fiction under the name N.A. Ratnayake. His speculative fiction has appeared in Crossed Genres Magazine as well as the post-colonial SF anthology We See A Different Frontier. His short story Remembering Turinam received an honorable mention in Gardner Dozois's The Year's Best Science Fiction, Thirty-First Edition. His Mars novel Red Soil Through Our Fingers was published in January 2016 and explores a future of corporate-controlled space settlement.
Though later a New Englander and presently a resident of the Hampton Roads region of Virginia, Nalin was born and raised in the American West — a region whose history and character continue to strongly influence his writing. The mountains, rains, coasts, and deserts of the West have been the backdrop for a rich interplay of conquest, struggle, identity, and hope. These themes often emerge entangled in Nalin's fiction.
As an engineer, writer, and educator, Nalin is strongly committed to exploring ideas for creating a more positive and sustainable future for all people.
