It starts several years ago with the Augarten “Kino unter Sternen ” in the Augarten park where the Vienna Boys choir also have his home. Nice but a bit far away from everything else.Now there are about 5 locations how over that and every location by himself is a visit worth.
Here the Vienna Open Air Cinemas most on very classy places ,if you drop by in Vienna for a visit or just wanna meet some friends.I add some personal Stars as a rating if you don’t knowwhich one too chose first.Check out the links for detail program.
Most Open Air Cinemas start when its get dark so about 21.00 entry fees is mostly the same like in a normal cinema around 7,50 Euro.

The find simple new Apartment in any city by asking friends on a Social platfrom is quite simple.
Most people search ones or some more often for a apartment in a other city of move together and need a bigger nicer apartment. Here it starts the problem many website over services ,endless crawling over various sites and Newspapers and the good stuff is gone when you pic up the phone .Often you have to pay a lot for just getting shown the Apartment or home.
Best experience is if one of your friend know some one that has moved or know some one who rent or sell a apartment.

This simple concept follow the Apartment 2.0 Group / Page on Facebook .Quite nice potential specially in this digital times where people moving faster and more often .
Some YouTube Videos of Apartment tours done personally to show renter not only the apartment and how there life in there they show the personality of the Students too that they will move in probably .Check it out i think its worth even when iam not searching for a Place right now i will have a source for my friends how often ask me if i know some place to rent.As it spreads more your search much more people on the same wave than only in your Friends list .At the moment the description is in German but it expandable to any location or city like Vienna ,Berlin Paris London or even New York .

Any way you can tray it on this Portals for Vienna too.

Probably you get the same Facebook massage sometimes from contacts in your status update .
Some of your friends are private ones other are professional contact for future or just for sharing and inspiration.

The High 5 for Social networks
Here i want to give some little help to people who want to use Facebook and Social Networks for Professional contacts too.

1.Facebook is not a save Place
As FB take care about privacy what is good ,the bad side they will not allow you
to backup your friends or save emails of friends that definitly want that you know it .
FB Ban very fast even when you make nothing wrong and only respond and post to much on your friends status or engage to much in groups .Happen to very nice and kommunikativ Friends of me .

2.Share on more than one platform connects deeper and save your friends.
When you connect on more than one network to your Professional contacts you can share business contact details to and backup it to Outlook or your IPhone.The apps on FB for Professional Contacts are just more work with nearly no benefit.
A tool that can halp you to fill all this registration stuff [FirefoxAddon] http://www.sxipper.com/

3.Engage be active only active contacts will be seen .
People with more than 100 contacts can miss you even when they are interested on your work or person .The biggest beginner error of some commercial FB accounts they only make marketing and promote Business .That’s for most user boring and its nothing more easy than to hide this ones .[EVA]
If you don’t like a Theme (Iran ect) send a short Im and I can group you to a Non Status update for a time not to bother you.

4.Take your friends with you on IPhone or WMobile
There is a App that allow to connect the profile pix of your friends with outlook and Mobile
It compare your address book in outlook with your FB friends and add to the existing ones with the FB Pix .Very nice for visual people like me who like the Smiling Faces of my friends .
The best its not against FB TOSs.

5.How I honor your work and connection to me
I thought how i can give something real back to Friends and contact in the Social FB Networks.Here what it jump in my mind .
Every Friend in my Network receive 5% discount on all regular prices of my Film Services
every additional Network you connect additional 5% off the prise .Up to 4 networks you can connect to me Professionally .Link-Ed ,Xing ,Facebook ,Twitter or Plaxo on my blog are the Social Network links and more .

Hope this is somehow useful for you if you think i should add something just replay or if one of your friends could be interested in it just share or recommend a Friend.

Happy Networking and a grateful Day

Many advices for Journalist get public how to survive in a War zone how to dress and move not to get in too dangerous situations when working as a Journalist in war zones. Our aim is to limit risk and to take responsibility for anyone working on our behalf in war zones.
As the Iran civil war and street getting somehow more dangerous than a war field and the classical TV Journalist get banned from government to stay in there hotels or leave the country.
The public Journalist report with there mobile YouTube and twitter from the streets. Most of these people have no experience in moving in areas where gunshot snipers from the roof and other crowd weapons are used like tear gas.
In Civil war zones you cant see who is enemy and who is friend many secret agents can be hiden in the crowd. As seen on some pix from iran some Basiji are dressed like civilian demonstrators to eleminate target peoepel.
Sierra Leone yugoslavia Afghanistan was a similar situation like in iran .

wing is a re-post of a insider from the other side if you have to protest like in Iran it could help you not to get injured by any force.

This is a document that a Iranian-American police officer has put together. He is the member of the SWAT team and he’s an expert on anti riot tactics. he has been watching and studying the videos and the tactics that basij has been using and he put the document together. It would be great to spread this document and pass it on to the kids in Iran. It might save their lives. – SB

Here are some simple ways of defending yourself when attacked by Basij or Security forces.

Anti riot attacks

Once caught by security forces, the best way to break free is by swinging relentlessly in all directions. Keep in mind that security forces have to hold on to you, which means they only can use one hand to deflect the blows. Brass Knuckle is extremely effective when trying to break loose from the grip of security forces. Wooden brass knuckle is strong and simple to make. The image above is a sample of a basic wooden brass knuckle that can be made with a piece of wood, a cutter and a drill. It should not take more than 30 minutes to make a wooden brass knuckle. Wooden brass knuckle is extremely strong, light weight and versatile. Make sure that the top edges are sharp and round.

Motorcycle attacks

Iranian Basij motorcycle units use attack and retrieve tactics which is meant to create fear more than anything else. The same tactic was used by US police forces on horsebacks when confronting the civil right protestors. The advantage of utilizing motorcycles in urban environment is obvious: motorcycles can go places that cars can?t. However, motorcycles have disadvantages which can handicap the force that uses them.

The most effective way of disabling motorcycles is using tire spikes. Though made of carbon cratnor material, the Basij motorcycle tires cannot withstand multiple punctures. The easiest way to spike Basiji?s tires is by using a simple tire spike system called Iron Caltrop. This simple device can be made in a matter of minutes by wrapping two pieces of nail together in a 65 degree angle. By dropping a handful of Iron Caltrop on the ground, you can deflate the tires of Basijis? motorcycles in a matter of minutes. If you ride, you know how difficult it is to steer a motorcycle with two flat tires.

Tear gas

A fabric socked in vinegar can very well protect you against tear gas. Cover your nose and mouth with the fabric and keep plenty of water around to wash your eyes if you come in direct contact with tear gas. Urban Legend: burning tires will reduce the effect of tear gas. Not true, it actually increases the effect and it smells bad too.
Additional with some swimm glasses you can protect your eyes and sight.

Batons

Riot police is trained to use batons. They understand that it?s easy to hit a stationary target and much easier to hit a target that is running away. Hitting somebody with baton is a matter of timing. The worst thing you can do is to run away from baton whirling security guards because it allows them to time the strike perfectly. The most effective way to counter a security guard with baton is to throw off his timing by going directly at him. That?s right. Run away and turn and go directly at him. When you go directly at the guard and close the distance, you completely screw up his timing. A boxer cannot hit a person that is standing 2 inches away from his face. That?s why boxer bounce around. A baton whirling guard is just like a boxer, he needs to time his strikes. By going directly at the guard and closing distance you mess-up his timing and might even be able to take him down.

Riot formation

Basij and police security guardsmen perform best when crowd disperses and becomes separated. The worst scenario for the riot police is when the crowd is together and inseparable. South Korean labor protestors in the 90s were the best organized units in history of rioting. Thousands of them held on to each other (locked arms) and no matter what, they did not let go. It made it impossible for the riot police to disperse them.

Just a few tips. Please translate and send it back to the youth in Iran. This can save their lives.

The massive Iran Election protests and engagement of Social Networks like Twitter for supporting the Iran Election Protesters around the world bring surprising new features out
from the 2 big Internet giants googel and Facebook.
Facebook launch a Farsi Translation for there community this morning 7am

Today search engine giant Google announce on there Blog they launched Farsi (Persian)translation support for its Google Translate product. (Beta)

Google Anouncemnt
“Today, we added Persian (Farsi) to Google Translate. This means you can now translate any text from Persian into English and from English into Persian ? whether it?s a news story, a website, a blog, an email, a tweet or a Facebook message. The service is available free at http://translate.google.com.

We feel that launching Persian is particularly important now, given ongoing events in Iran. Like YouTube and other services, Google Translate is one more tool that Persian speakers can use to communicate directly to the world, and vice versa ? increasing everyone?s access to information.

As with all machine translation, it?s not perfect yet. And we?re launching this service quickly, so it may perform slowly at times. We?ll keep a close watch and if it breaks, we?ll restore service as quickly as we can.

We?ve optimized this service for translation between Persian and English. But we?re working hard to improve Persian translation for the additional 40 languages available via Google Translate. If you see something you think is incorrectly translated, we invite you to click on the ?contribute a better translation? link and we?ll learn from your correction.”

That the public turned so close and active to support Iranian Protesters was surprising me ,many Avatars turnd there Profile pix to green to show visually there support for the Iranian demonstrators.About 3000 tweets per hour on the Iran tehran topic.
Many twitter user changed there lokation to Iran Tehran and Timezone +3.30 to hide the orginal live bloger and twitter from tehran to get to easy discoverd by the goverment secret services.Some famous Twitter user like ashton kutscher leading with ther 1.8 mil follower Here the Top 100 tehran mover http://twittercounter.com/pages/country%26time_zone=Tehran

The dramatic rise in aktivity on platform like YouTube and Twitter on the Iran topic is going main theme over multi social platforms. At the moment Twitter is major information pool for live news about Iran. The TV Networks and there Journalist can not report anymore from Iran as there Journalist have to move out of the country or being forced to stay in there hotel room. Same happen to Austrian Reporter ….. from the Austria Brodcaster ORF
As more the Iranian government tray to filter block and prevent reports from Iran as more the public broadcast every new news from Tehran and other cities.

Some thing new is happening in the Field of Journalism ,everybody is going to be a Journalist Broadcaster or Cameraman.Iranian Citizen Journalism going to Expand in Iran’s Cyber Battle with multi tausend online supportes. Not only Bloggers Tech experts posting and instaling Proxys for the Iranian to overcome the blocked Internet ,medical information what to due when hit by a plasic shoot or tear gas geting twitterd.
armed only with a mobile Blog or Twitter account the resistance is aktive and online.

US goverment gave advice to Twitter to reschedule their maintenance time because twitter was the only application for iranian protestor to communication after mobile and most Internet connection get blocked. 360 Blog

Hossein Mousavi Facebook Page

“Where is my vote “
Its my second night behind the twitter screen waching #iranelections and the starting #iranrevolution .No need to turn on any news TV channel like CNN #cnnfail or others .About hundreds and more Iranian using Twitter Facebook and you tube too publish what going right now in Iran .This short blog post i just post to have my moniter running the 10 most important Tweeters from Tehran (Tehran) as my Tweet deck cant monitor that much hash-tags.
Many Blogs post incredible pictures how the People fighting against the vote fraud in Iran and the riots in Tehran and other cities.Just to mention going on street in Iran is much more danger than going on street in a western country when they catch you you can imagine what happens to them in the jail if ever be seen alive again.But still the people show how the young Iran changed and want to change.
Even the Blocked Internet connections get overrun by foreign proxies tweeters so fast that the government who close most Internet services to Web2.0 Services they cant turn them all down. Hackers attacking Iranian government site to block there activities too.What hurt mostly again the activists so pleas don’t.

My recommendation is to re tweet even older posts of the day to keep the Iranelection stream up .New tweets will be not bevor next morning .They need some sleep after this harsh day too, its about 2.00 clock morning in tehran now.
Supporter of the new Iran color their Profile pix in facebook and tweeter Green to show their support for liberal Hossein Mussawi.
