Denmark, like most European nations, is confronting serious labor shortages, but its government has decided to look inward rather than outward for solutions. Denmark’s business community is importing fewer and fewer workers from other nations. For example, only four foreign nurses have been hired in the nation’s hospitals over the past year”We’ve chosen to [...]

The June Challenge from the Daring Bakers took me right back to my early days as a novice baker!! Still in high school, I had an insatiable need to experiment with all goods baked.

This month, the Daring Bakers were asked to make a Danish braid the original Danish way, making layers of flaky, buttery pastry. It’s a laminated dough, similar to puff pastry, but with sugar and fewer turns. Tough. Daring.

Not that many Danish bands are flirting with the shoegaze genre, so happy I was when earlier today I came across Funen based quartet Dorias Baracca.

A car bomb blast at the Danish embassy in Islamabad has killed at least eight individuals and injuring eight. The attack occurred in an affluent area of the city (F-6-2), somewhat near the Luna Caprese restaurant that was attacked in March.
This evening, the Al-Fajr Media Center has circulated copies of an communique signed by senior Al-Qaida commander Mustafa Abu al-Yazid claiming responsibility for Monday's suicide bomb attack on the Danish embassy in Islamabad. According to the statement, "in the context of our jihad against the assault on our Islamic nation by the Crusaders, the Jews, and all the other tyrannical enemies of Islam

Popeye biceps, rippling six-packs, and supernaturally dark tans: these pumped-up people have trained for a Scandinavian bodybuilding contest by shaking off every last ounce of fat. But even if you admire their commitment, it is hard not to recoil in confusion at such asexual specimens.It was this reaction – something between respect and disgust – which prompted the Danish photographer Joachim Ladefoged to photograph this slew of hard-bodies. He took a mixture of black and white and colour photography at the Danish Bodybuilding Championship in 2001 and similar events in the ensuing years, underexposing the subjects to make them appear darker still. The resulting snaps are assembled in a book, Mirror (the title a nod to his models' narcissism), to be published later this year."For me, pe

Of course Danish businessmen are condemning the Geert Wilders film. And of course they deny that the Muslim boycott of Danish products is hurting their businesses. They have companies to run and the bottom line to think of. But it's still nice to hear them say nice things about Arab culture and religion. I'm pretty sure they're sincere. After all, Friesland Foods has been doing business in the Middle East for more than 50 years and their relationships with their Arab partners are on solid ground.Danish Businessmen Blast Wilders FilmBy K.S.

A protest against Denmark in Yemen.Saudi Gazette columnist Sabria Jawhar poses some interesting questions about the Danish boycott over the cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad. She argues that if Muslims are willing to boycott Danish goods, why not consider boycotting goods and services that “aid and abet” the slaughter of Muslims in Iraq, Afghanistan and the Palestinian Occupied Territories. She suggests that Muslims should consider avoiding purchasing vehicles made by US automakers that send vehicles to Iraq to aid the war effort and foodmakers that help feed US military personnel.

Yemeni market refuses to stock Danish products. Street demonstrations are illegal in Saudi Arabia, so the next best thing – well, actually a better thing – is to organize a boycott to demonstrate displeasure of the actions of another country. Supermarkets throughout Saudi Arabia have stopped stocking the shelves with Danish products to protest the re-publication of the Prophet Muhammad cartoons. The boycott was effective in late 2005 and early 2006 when markets stopped stocking dairy products imported from Denmark. The Danes acknowledged the boycott did affect Danish manufacturers and suppliers. Now the Saudis are getting more specific in which products they are boycotting by texting each other bar code numbers and images of the products to be boycotted.Danish Products Boycott Increas

Now this is something to be angry about. I dunno. I have to say that I am sick and tired of these Danish cartoon protests. They remind me so much of the cockamamie priorities people have. It's kind of like when hundreds of people call a newspaper after it publishes a story about a homeless and injured kitten. Everybody wants to adopt it. But when the newspaper publishes an article about a homeless and injured 3-year-old girl, the phones are silent.

We’ve got our Danish group back again this evening.
It’s an interesting aspect of the development of our bookings that we are starting to get picked out by tour groups this year. This’ll be the fifth time that the Danish tour leader will have been here on one of her New Age tours taking in this region. It seems to be quite a popular area for that type of tour, this particular one having a Mary Magdelene theme.
Anyway, that’ll keep us pretty busy this evening as they want meals through to lunchtime tomorrow.
Kevin Federline will use Britney's flirt with other women as a weapon in his custody battle against his ex-wife. K-Fed is desperate to win custody over his two sons Sean Preston and Jayden James. So desperate that he is turning every darn stone to find people to testify in the custody battle against Britney Spears. The search has now brought him to Copenhagen, Denmark: A woman, who bedded Britney back in 2004 after a concert, has been called in to testify.According to News Of The World, Britney met the woman at gay-club "Pan" in Copenhagen, where she was partying with her staff after a concert.Kevin found the woman via a private investigator, and asked her to testify, in the hope of winning the case. K-Fed's friends says: "His first priority is his children. He's desperate to avoid them hanging out with a lesbian booze-head."Kevin Federline, you are the most awful gold-digging, low-life of a man. You ain't even a man. How the feck can you think you are a better parent than Britney?

No one told him yet there are several cartoonists? Apparently not.Daily Times via LGF:PESHAWAR: Mohabbat Khan Mosque Khateeb Maulana Muhammad Yousuf Qureshi said on Wednesday that a fatwa (decree) issued for the killing of a Danish cartoonist who had drawn caricatures of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), would not be withdrawn. "We have put a price on the blasphemer's head, and will pay one million dollars to the person who kills him," Qureshi told Daily Times. Qureshi said that the US government had banned his entry into America and refused him a visa after he issued the fatwa against the cartoonist working for Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten. Qureshi, who has been criticising the US and leading anti-US rallies, said he was not against Americans. He said he had visited the US every year between 1984 and 2000, but stopped going there after the 9/11 attacks. "I am only against US government policies which are anti-Muslim," he said.
A Danish court has rightfully thrown out a lawsuit filed by Islamists over the Mohammed cartoons:COPENHAGEN, Denmark - A Danish court on Thursday dismissed a lawsuit filed by Muslim organizations against the newspaper that first published the Prophet Muhammad cartoons that touched off protests in the Islamic world.The City Court in Aarhus said it could not be ruled out that some Muslims had been offended by the 12 drawings printed in Jyllands-Posten, but said there was no reason to assume that the cartoons were meant to "belittle Muslims."The newspaper published the cartoons on Sept. 30, 2005 with a text saying it was challenging a perceived self-censorship among artists afraid to offend Islam.The caricatures were reprinted in European papers in January and February, fueling a fury of protests in the Islamic world. Some turned violent, with protesters killed in Libya and Afghanistan and several European embassies attacked.Islamic law forbids any depiction of the prophet, even positive
More defiance of dhimmitude in Denmark as the youth wing of the Danish Peoples Party take part in a Muhammed-drawing competition (via Hot Air). Note though that Reuters being what they are, unfortunately denounces them:Danish state TV on Friday aired amateur video footage showing young members of the anti-immigrant Danish Peoples’ party engaged in a competition to draw humiliating cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad…The images, filmed by artist Martin Rosengaard Knudsen who posed as a member of the party for several months to document attitudes among young members, show a number of young people drinking, singing and drawing cartoons ridiculing the Prophet Mohammad.The faces of the young people were blurred in most of the footage. One cartoon appeared to depict the Prophet Mohammad as a camel, urinating and drinking beer. The competition took place in early August, according to Danish media.Another cartoon strip aired in the partly masked footage on state TV seemed to show the prophet
I woke up this morning to hear that some 7 people were arrested in Denmark for plotting terrorist acts. Am sure glad they caught them.But added to that was a comment that maybe the Danish parliament wants to increase surveillance in Denmark so it does not happen again.There was a neat comment from the former director of the Danish Investigative Police saying something like, we don't need to increase the surveillance as the recently foiled plot was an evidence that the current system is enough. I.e. Don't fix it if it isn't broken!Then there was a whole radio program on Danish Radio P3 following this about "I don't mind more surveillance, I've got nothing to hide" - well at least that is how it started.What a narrow minded view, I mean the massive surveillance is fine if everyone was totally honest and totally operating on the greater good. But are they?Someone should take some of the radio programs they make, edit it a bit and show them what a not-so-honest person could make out
The Danish album chart is pretty much a joke once again this week (Danser Med Drenge is probably the worst band ever in the history of Danish music), though two entries are worth mentioning. First of all VETO rises from 57 to 21 which indeed is very positive. Apparently there are a few people in Denmark listening to decent music after all. DMDK the Depeche Mode tribute enters at no. 36. This is worth mentioning because the cover versions are by some of the better Danish bands (e.g. Moi Caprice, Figurines, EPO-555 and Diefenbach). Stream the songs here.Anamia keyboardist Mogens Møller has a small side project called tWAMi, where he composes and plays electronic music inspired by Moby, Jean-Michel Jarre etc. At first I was a bit hesitant towards listening to it, because this kind of music doesn't really fit with the alternative/indie wave I'm currently riding.
