euronews right on - Reaching out to Europe's Roma
www.euronews.com European governments are under pressure to focus on Roma integration, and Kavarna in Bulgaria is given as one example of where things are working. Ten years ago Roma complained to parliament about discrimination in the town, and things dramatically changed when a new mayor came into office. But concerns remain about the overall situation in the country. Kavarna resident Sebastian Romanov told euronews: "The animals in Bulgaria are better integrated than the Roma and I will let you know why: because EU funds are not reaching the Roma children. "In order to achieve successful integration, we need funds. No one is employed. There are no jobs, but they want us to integrate. Please tell me how, explain it to me." In Kavarna, though, things look brighter. The Roma are now given help to build new homes and improve their neighbourhoods. The town has set an example in a country that has the second largest Roma population in Europe. The mayor set up a minorities integration service and new facilities are being provided. "The land we're on here used to be an eyesore, an illegal rubbish dump," said euronews' Seamus Kearney, reporting from Kavarna. "But now it's been totally transformed. 50 new homes have been built, and there are plans for many more. Roma leaders say none of this would've been possible without the financial help from the local authorities." Kavarna's mayor, Tsonko Tsonev, has also made his town famous with heavy metal music festivals. He is not a ... From: Euronews Views: 25 1 ratings Time: 08:31 More in Shows

New Releases For April 24, 2012 - Press Pause Daily
[LESS INFO] 0 VIEWS | ADDED 00:11:30 04/24/12
This week we have a new Prototype, a fantasy RPG, and a couple of downloadable games to help you pass the time.
SHOW NOTES:
GAME 1: Prototype 2 - PS3, Xbox 360, PC
First up is Prototype 2 which puts you in the shoes of a new protagonist as you hunt for the man who made you who you are.
Play as the all-new infected protagonist, Sgt. James Heller, soldier and husband to a deceased wife and child, in this sequel to the popular open-world game, Prototype
Become the ultimate shape-shifting weapon as you cut through the wastelands of post-viral New York Zero and build a vast genetic arsenal of deadly new biological weapons and abilities on your quest to kill Alex Mercer
Take down the devil himself, Alex Mercer, against the explosive backdrop of New York Zero and its warring factions fighting for control over the infection
Explore New York Zero's three distinct zones, including the heavily militarized Green Zone, the overcrowded refugee camps of the quarantined Yellow Zone and the war-ravaged home of Alex Mercer, the Red Zone
Unleash the ultimate form of shape-shifting devastation and take advantage of the unbelievable Tendril power that lets you lift and tear apart cars and military vehicles, ensnare powerful infected beasts and shred large groups of enemies to pieces
Mix and match an impressive range of new Mutation perks, including bigger and faster locomotion abilities, sharper claws and enhanced disguise abilities, to create your own ultimate Prototype
Disguise yourself as soldiers, scientists and more to absorb their memories and acquire new abilities
Emit a powerful sonar pulse from your body to track down enemies
Experience the unparalleled technology of the Titanium 2.0 engine
The first game was an interesting open world revenge tale, and this one could be just as good. We’ll keep our fingers crossed.
GAME 2: Risen 2: Dark Waters - PC
Next up we have Risen 2: Dark Waters, the sequel to the 2009 fantasy RPG.
Several years after the end of Risen, humanity is pushed to the brink of existence and one of the only safe havens is Caldera, a city located on the peninsula of the Lost Realm. However, even this sanctuary is threatened by the world at chaos, as monstrous sea monsters cause shipments of vital supplies to come to a grinding halt. The hero, upon discovering a rumor that the pirates of the Southern islands know of a way to banish the creatures of the deep, journeys to infiltrate their ranks and attempt to acquire this knowledge in time to save Caldera from imminent peril.
A Unique Pirate Fantasy Setting — Risen 2 features an open world complete with copious amounts of rum, firearms, dirty tricks and a brand new voodoo magic style
One of the Most Intense, Immersive Game Worlds Ever Created — Risen 2 will fully envelop its players in its world with a full day/night cycle, dynamic weather patterns, NPCs with daily routines who react based on your behavior, and even creature AI with routine behaviors such as scavenging and sleeping that are impacted by the time of day
Every Gameplay Decision Made Has a Consequence — Risen 2 allows players to shape their game experience and even the game world itself depending on their actions and choices. Your choices may change the character's skill set, NPC relationships, or even potential quest lines
A True Role-Playing-Oriented Experience — A perfect blend of classical RPG gameplay and a fresh, unique underlying game world
Several Unique Islands — All lovingly designed by hand with no copy and paste set pieces, encourage exploration and adventure while the player hunts for secret treasures and hidden areas
New Visual Technology — High-res texturing, gorgeous weather, water and light/shadow effects, a fully revamped character animation system and an exhaustive NPC character model design which greatly reduces the chance of "clone" NPCs
If you dig the fantasy setting, then this might just be the game for you. The PC version is out now, but the Xbox 360 and PS3 version were pushed back until July.
GAME 3: Bloodforge - XBLA
Our first digital release this week is Bloodforge.
With a brutal combat system, stunning art style, and a deeply compelling story, Bloodforge empowers you to slaughter hordes of demonic soldiers, deformed worshippers, and the gods themselves, using ferocious Rage Kills, devastating Rune attacks, and furious Weapon Combos. Help seal Crom’s fate – and the fate of the rest of the world – in this dark, visceral story of revenge, betrayal, and destiny.
If you love mindless gory hack and slash gameplay then you can grab this for a price of 1200 Microsoft Points.
GAME 4: UEFA Euro 2012 - PS3, Xbox 360, PC
And lastly we have a soccer expansion for FIFA 2012 that will cover the Union of European Football Associations 2012 championship.
It will feature a new game mode: Expedition Mode where players create a customized team to bid against the European nations.
Players can import their Virtual Pro into the mode.
The game will include all 53 UEFA-member nations. The user can play a full version of Euro 2012, from qualifying all the way to the final, or start at the Euro 2012 finals.
All 8 official stadiums of the tournament will be included in the game.
The Story of the Finals scenario mode from 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa will be returning. The user earns points for how well they do which unlock more scenarios.
If you’re a soccer fan who has already beat FIFA 2012, then this will give you a whole lot more game to play. You’ll be able to download the expansion to your PC, Xbox 360, and PS3.

Going Deeper with Project Roslyn: Exposing the C# and VB compiler’s code analysis
[LESS INFO] 1 VIEWS | ADDED 17:45:00 04/14/12
Until now, the VB and C# compilers have been used as black boxes. You put text in, and you get out a binary file. In our long-lead project, codename "Roslyn," we are changing that dynamic by building an API that exposes our compilers' analysis engines. In this session, we'll go in-depth in exploring the Roslyn project and the powerful set of APIs for building "code aware" tools and extensions. In this information-packed session, we'll explore six major Roslyn APIs in depth, covering parsing, retrieving semantic information, analyzing data and control flow, and scripting. Armed with this knowledge, we'll see how easy it is to leverage the APIs to analyze and generate C# and VB source code, add C# scripting support to an application, or even extend the existing C# and VB language service features in Visual Studio.

euronews hi-tech - Virtual cinema
www.euronews.com Immersive entertainment, the next step in visual wizardry, is gaining momentum in cinema and gaming circles. There are 900 immersion domes currently being used around the world in places including theme parks and planetariums where the interactive 3D and holographic displays give the viewer the impression of being teleported into the heart of the action. However for Ed Lantz, President and CTO of Vortex Immersion Media Inc, we are already living in an immersive world: "These are virtual worlds. The dome is one entry portal into those immersive worlds, your cell is another and your PDA. So, increasingly we are being surrounded by screens. What we're doing in the domes is we are exploding the frame. The image completely surrounds you so it's as if you are actually fully immersed in a computer generated environment. It's like taking 500 people and teleporting them into cyber space." The re-release of Titanic is another example of the huge demand for 3D cinema. Fifteen years on, the reworked film's popularity shows that the appetite for ever more interactive cinema, could set the president for Hollywood's future endeavours. Peter Caranicas, deputy editor of Variety talks about the impact technology is having the entertainment industry: "The advent of social networking and the internet and video streaming is really changing people's viewing habits and I think the Hollywood studios are really at a loss as to how to deal with this as well as the major television ...

*T%C apply, Driving Tests not included.
As an experienced London driving instructor who has helped many learner drivers pass the driving test over the last 10 years, I would like to give you some free tips to pass your next car test.
It is important that you realise that the DSA car test is tough, and it is not easy to pass as evidenced by the low national pass rate of about 40%. It only takes one mistake for a candidate to be failed by the DSA examiner if that driving error was deemed serious or dangerous, so these videos and the additional 10 Driving Test Advice Tips have been put together to help you pass the DSA practical car assessment on your next attempt. The information might be simple and obvious for some of you, but all the same bear them in mind and concentrate fully during the 40 minutes the examiner is assessing you so that your dream of driving a car unsupervised can be realised on your next attempt, as my experience from almost 10 years of helping various people pass the driving test has shown that many capable and well prepared provisional licence holders fail not because they are bad drivers, but made simple avoidable errors either due to lack of knowledge or not taking my advice seriously enough!
Visit my special website for those of you who are taking your driving test in the Mill Hill centre NW7 London .
Video 1 Multi-Lane Major Roundabouts
Before I begin, may I remind you that this website of mine is full of invaluable advice based on almost 10 years of ADI experience, so if you are really serious about passing, I strongly suggest you bookmark this blog, subscribe and go over the many other free online articles and videos posted here, you can never be overprepared, and who knows which tip it might be that saves you from making a serious error.
The DSA is making a major change to the theory test in January 2012 .
Video 2 Independent Driving on the Test
Practical Tips To Help You Pass Next Attempt.
1. Arrive at the DSA driving test centre on time. Know your centre location (make sure you have the right details as many candidates have turned up at the wrong address), how to get there, and if possible visit a day earlier to know if there are any road works or local restrictions in place (important if you are not using an approved driving instructor ADI ). Arriving for your appointment early will allow you to be more at ease. If you don't follow this tip and arrive more than 5 mins late for your driving test appointment, the DSA examiner will not take you out, you will lose your booking fee and not be able to get another appointment for at least another 10 days.
2. Master the UK highway code!.
This is probably one of the most ignored advice tips that I constantly give to all my learner driver clients. It is one of the simplest, cheapest and easiest ways of making sure you are fully prepared (apart from practicing driving a car according to DSA standard) for the test. The small highway code booklet should be your closest companion once you have a driving test booked, take it everywhere you go, reading it in your free time, as it will help with understanding road signs and markings, lane disicpline, how to deal with different types of junctions, other road users like pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists and generally solidify your knowledge of how to drive in the UK.
Many times test candidates are not sure of how to deal with a particular situation, with different views being given even by qualified instructors! If you have read through the highway code a couple of times, you will always know the correct procedure, as DSA examiners will follow the highway code as this is the accepted standard. Just because you have passed the theory test doesn't mean you know everything or will remember it if you do not revise. It does not matter if people around you know that you are preparing for a driving test, what is more important is that you are not one of the drivers that the examiners tell "sorry you have not passed on this occasion, would you like me to tell you why?". Go and find your highway code booklet NOW and start reading it, what have you to lose? You do have a lot to gain from it!
3. Get a good night's rest before the day of your driving assessment a tip easily overlooked.
4. A test tip to help anxious candidates is that Rescue remedy or Kalms might help with your driving test nerves (seek professional advice before using medication if you are driving), and remember being a little nervous is okay as it gets your adrenalin flowing, which helps you to perform in high pressure situations.
5. Use the toilet before you depart to the driving test centre (not all have facilties for learner drivers, DSA Barnet is an example), as you don't want to be caught short just before meeting the dsa examiner. A driving test tip I regulary give to my learner drivers.
6. During the 40 minute drive, deal with the present, don't try and predict the dsa examiner route, what set exercises you are going to get, which direction you are going to be told to go. You will pass the driving test if you successfully and safely carry out each step at a time.
7. Another driving tip is to make progress if it is safe to do so, but obey all road signs and markings, slow doesn't always mean you are being safe, and you could fail the test for driving too slow !
8. Make sure you understand any instructions you are given, if in doubt, ask for the driving examiner to repeat it.
9. Don't panic if you make a mistake, correct it and move on, dwelling on a driving error could cause a snow ball of errors, and the first one might not have failed you!
10. Make sure you are prepared before presenting yourself for the DSA driving test, you have a better chance of passing if you've taken professional training, know what the dsa examiner is looking for and had enough practice during your driving lessons . I've left this driving test tip till last, but it is the most important advice that you will get.

SHOW NOTES:
GAME 1: SSX - PS3, Xbox 360
First up is the the pseudo reboot of the SSX series. The classic snowboarding game is now heading in a more real world direction as compared to the PS2 originals.
The snowboarders will now be tackling real world mountains across the globe. Many characters are returning to the game, such as Elise Riggs, Moby Jones, and Eddie Wachowski.
One aspect from the original games that isn’t changing is the great licensed music that you will play along to. several artists have been confirmed for the game including: Skrillex, DJ Shadow, The Hives, and Run-D.M.C.
The game is looking pretty fun, so if you have fond memories of the PS2 games, then maybe you should give this a try.
GAME 2: Binary Domain - PS3, Xbox 360
Next is a game from the creator of the acclaimed Yakuza game series.
Binary Domain is a squad-based shooter set in the near future where androids called “Hallow Children” have become so advanced, that they can’t distinguished from human, and a battle is raging.
You’ll be able to interact with your team through button presses or with voice commands via a headset. Trust is a major element of the game, and how can affect how your teammates will react to you. If you’re a good leader, they will follow without question, but if you make too many bad decisions, they will start to ignore your orders.
Gameplay is very similar to games like Gears of War, and was designed to appeal to a western audience. The game features a 10-hour solo campaign, as well as many multiplayer online campaigns as well.
In the end, the game looks pretty interesting, and might be worth your time if you are a fan of action shooters.
GAME 3: Nexuiz - XBLA
Lastly we have the third release in the Xbox Live Summer of Arcade event. Nexuiz is a re-imagining of a Quake-based first person arena shooter. The new version is being developed byIllFonic for THQ, and features two teams battling against each other across many different sci-fi arenas.
The game features over 100 different power ups called “Dynamic Mutators” which will grant things like a jetpack, or lo gravity. It has 9 arenas, and is using the CryEngine 3 graphics engine for incredible visuals. The game is designed for competitive play, but you can play solo, or online.
If you are a fan of intense shooter action, then fire up your Xbox and download this today. It will also be coming to PSN and Steam later this spring.
That will do it for your daily dose of Press Pause. You can always find all our episodes over at presspause.mevio.com . You can also check them out over at our Youtube channel: youtube.com/presspausemevio .

Bureaucracy, a lack of skilled workers and the ever looming threat of natural disaster have not been enough to deter over 500 German firms from setting up operations in Thailand. Made in Germany visited Thomas Zimpfer, to discover more about how his German company is faring in Asia.Boom Town - Regensburg Comes Out TopIt may not be the most obvious winner, but Regensburg currently has the top spot in rankings for German towns. The traditional Bavarian city prospered more than any other in 2011, and is set to do the same this year. The survey covered 60 towns and cities and was based on growth potential. As well as being a thriving base of automotive and electrical goods manufacturing, Regensburg is also becoming a hub for software and biotechnology companies. We join Carmen Meyer in exploring the town’s success. Wage Negotiations - Metal Workers Demand MoreGermany’s IG-Metall metalworkers’ union is demanding a 6.5 percent pay increase. Why? They argue that their pay should reflect how well their employers are doing. Nermin Rekic is one of 600 employees working for König Metall in Gaggenau, assembling parts for the auto industry. A father of two, he wants to provide for his family despite rising living costs, and doesn’t see why he shouldn’t have a share in his company’s success. Negotiations are set to begin in March. Report by Kerstin Schweizer. Studio Guest: Hans-Peter BurghofWe discuss pay negotiations and wage demands with Hans-Peter Burghof, a banking expert from the University of Hohenheim.Risk Management - How Corporations Can Protect ThemselvesWhich businesses are the riskiest? Perhaps financial securities trading, with all the billions of euros that change hands in dubious transactions. Or insurance companies, which have to shell out money due to destructive events that they can’t predict. Risk managers are in big demand. We also visit the only university in Germany to offer a course in risk management. Students learn to identify risk factors and draw conclusions from them - and use that knowledge to help corporations to save millions. Report by Dan Hirschfeld. High Flood Risk, Low Wages - German Companies in ThailandThe promise of cheap labor has enticed over 500 German firms to set up operations in Thailand, despite the bureaucracy, lack of skilled workers and risk of flooding. Thomas Zimpfer’s business, Bluechips Microhouse, has a workforce of around 300 and makes electrical parts - chiefly for export to Germany. How much chance of success do German companies in Thailand have, and what are the risks? Marion Hütter tells us more.
