SEID Magic Handshake music review by Rivertree

3 stars This is a long awaited rebirth I would say. SEID - the Cosmic Pirate Rockers, located in Trondheim/Norway, are back after six years of absence ... at least when it comes to new studio output. A magic handshake for their fans. So here we have just about 60 minutes of fresh explorations - released on Black Widow Records this time, manufactured for compact disc as well as double vinyl. First of all to notice ... except new drummer Viktor Martin the line up has remained in force basically. They don't build up extended song constructions, boundless jam attitude is not their thing. Therefore you won't find any track crossing the ten minute line - but on the other hand one can follow them sailing the cosmos in compliance with safety procedures - which means variety is the name of the game on this occasion.

Thus some tracks bear unexpected turns and they are covering the complete space rock spectrum here featuring diverse guitar style variations. In place of the heavier parts the album starts reminiscent of Hawkwind, compact, provided with straightforward garage rock appeal. The following Decode The Glow is more kinda groovy and mellow though. Diverse keyboard stuff comes to the fore time after time. Let me point out the restless Tr?n where one can detect the melancholic mellotron, preferably used by nordic bands. And later typical synths also provide some Ozric Tentacles feeling. Moreover I want to remark the lively drumming - Viktor Martin perfectly fits.

The powerful Fire It Up! stands for the band's dynamic as no other, ?ly?k Kok Friebib by way of change showcases a long weird outro dominated by somewhat quirky/spooky synths. Later they are keen on praying the Space Rock Dogma including a nicely floating electric piano and mellotron duet. SEID save a really magnifique song until last - I mean the title track. The arrangement reflects the album's essence. It starts with powerful straight rock featuring sing along qualitities - will move the crowd during their gigs for sure - and then turns to a groovier behaviour which even shows some improv appeal. Something for everyone who's familiar with the space rock genre. Supported by a bunch of friends on vocals and wind instruments SEID offer an interesting new album in 2012 - 3.5 stars.

(AP) ? The Muslim Brotherhood's candidate for the Egyptian presidential runoff promised Tuesday he would break sharply with the ways of ousted autocrat Hosni Mubarak, a day after angry protesters burned down the headquarters of his challenger who served as prime minister in the old regime.

Islamist Mohammed Morsi appeared to be trying to cash in on public resentment of his rival Ahmed Shafiq's ties to Mubarak at a news conference where he offered something for everyone, from the military to the revolutionaries, women and minority Christians. Morsi has been scrambling to broaden his base of support ahead of the June 16-17 runoff.

"When I am president, the presidency will not be reduced to one person," he said. "The age of superman has failed and gone. The world is no longer like that. I am not like that."

Morsi's comments came hours after some 400 protesters chanting slogans against Shafiq stormed and vandalized his Cairo campaign headquarters. The protesters set the building ablaze after making away with computers, television sets and air conditioners.

Shafiq was the last prime minister appointed by Mubarak before he stepped down in February 2011 in the face of a popular uprising against his autocratic rule. The attack on Shafiq's headquarters was reminiscent of some of the most dramatic scenes of the uprising when protesters burned down the ruling party headquarters.

In Cairo's Tahrir square, birthplace of the uprising, protesters chanted slogans against both Morsi and Shafiq. Similar protests took place in the Mediterranean port city of Alexandria and elsewhere in northern Egypt.

Morsi claimed the top spot in the first round of landmark elections last week, putting him in the runoff against Shafiq who, like his longtime friend and mentor Mubarak, is a former air force commander.

The attack on Shafiq's headquarters underlined the depth of resentment felt by many toward Shafiq, viewed by critics as an extension of the Mubarak regime. And Morsi moved quickly to use it for political gain, making a host of generous promises he said he would keep if elected.

He also used his televised news conference to fend off against charges that the group was seeking to garner more power after winning just under half of all seats in parliament and reversing an earlier decision not to field a presidential candidate.

He promised to place Christians in top government jobs and said he would not impose an Islamic dress code in public for women.

"Our Christian brothers, they are partners in the nation. They will have full rights that are equal to those enjoyed by Muslims," Morsi said. "They will be represented as advisers in the presidential institution, and maybe a vice president if possible."

Women, he said, will have full rights in jobs and education.

"Women have a right to freely choose the attire that suits them," he said.

But his overtures may be a hard sell for some

"It is his right to make propaganda for himself just as I have the right to listen to his words with one ear and let them out from the next," said Girgis Atef, a veteran of the uprising that toppled Mubarak 15 months ago. "More than anyone else, the Brotherhood makes promises it never keeps," said the 35-year-old Atef.

Samer S. Shehata, an Egypt expert from Georgetown University, said Morsi would not be able to honor all these promises. He needed to negotiate specifics with those whose support he is trying to enlist, he added, citing pro-democracy groups and candidates who fared well in the first round but not enough to make it to the runoff vote, like leftist Hamdeen Sabahi and moderate Islamist Abdel-Moneim Abolfotoh. They came third and fourth respectively.

"This is unlikely to win him Christian votes or demonstrate a real commitment to complete equality regardless of religion," Shehata said of Morsi's assurances to the minority Christians who have long complained of discrimination in mainly Muslim Egypt.

"In order to be more credible, Morsi should negotiate with Sabahi, Abolfotoh and the revolutionary youth about concrete commitments and positions, about the specifics of the civil nature of the state, political and personal freedoms, and constitutional principles."

Morsi, 60, also praised the generals who took over from Mubarak, though he acknowledged that mistakes were made while they managed the transitional period.

"There is not a single Egyptian who doesn't like the military. The military played a glorious rule in protecting the revolution," Morsi said. "There were mistakes, yes, but also positive steps. Among those positive steps is the elections held under the protection of the police and military."

He vowed there would be no clashes or charges of treason against the military, suggesting that he has no intention of entertaining calls by some pro-democracy groups for the generals to be tried for alleged crimes during the past 15 months.

The groups blame the military for killing scores of protesters, torturing detainees and putting at least 12,000 civilians on trial before military tribunals.

Morsi also vowed to create a broad coalition government that is not led by a Brotherhood figure, and said the country's new constitution would be written by a panel that is truly representative of the nation.

The Brotherhood and other Islamists, who control more than 70 percent of parliament's seats, packed the original constitutional panel with their own supporters in a bid to influence the charter. However, a court ruling disbanded it on the grounds that it did not observe the rules of selection spelled out in a constitutional declaration adopted last year.

Perfect Home Improvement Tips, Tricks, And Treats

If you are stressed about taking care of home improvement around your house, you are not alone. Like anything else, doing a proper home improvement job requires the proper advice and information. This article contains great tips and suggestions that will help you make your next home improvement project a success.

Fix floor squeaks with a few drywall screws. While a second person waits below in the crawl space or basement, walk over your floor and locate where the squeaking is occurring. Signal to the person below where the problem is. They can insert a drywall screw through the sub floor and into the flooring to stop the squeak.

If you are planning on painting a room as part of a home improvement project, you can save money by accurately estimating the amount of paint you will need. One gallon of paint will cover about 350 square feet of wall space, unless you are painting drywall, which absorbs more paint.

An accurate estimate can prevent you from overbuying paint, which once mixed in a specific color generally can't be returned.

Stay true to the property and the neighborhood when you take on major renovations. If you live on a street of suburb ranch style homes, then putting in a colonial mansion is not going to get you the desired result you're after. It will be out of place and not something anyone else will be willing to pay for later.

If your living room is dark even though you have a lot of windows, there are ways to ensure that light will get through. Installing skylights is a great way to save on energy bills because it cuts down on the use of lamps, and it will ensure that natural lighting comes through. Choosing to paint your living room warm and inviting colors such as orange, yellow, or light brown can create a feeling of warmth and light. Make sure to decorate with light wood colored furniture instead of dark and heavy oaks.

Install ceiling fans to disperse heat and cooling better throughout your home. During the mild seasons, ceiling fans can provide all the cooling you need. Throughout the colder winter months, your ceiling fans can spread out the warm air from your heating system faster, cutting down on expensive heating costs.

When tackling a home improvement venture on your own, you need to have a reliable place that you go to get advice. If you find random information on the internet from some John Doe, you could be headed towards disaster! Large scale home improvement stores are never a bad place to start.

Make sure that only high quality supplies are used in your home improvement projects. This will ensure that the work lasts for greatest amount of time and offers the best finish. You don't want to find out a few months down the road that using a higher quality would have prevented wear and tear or easy damaging.

As was stated in this article, home improvement projects can be stressful for some people. However, if you have the right advice and information, it becomes much easier to do a home improvement project very well. Use this article's advice, and be on your way to a successful home improvement project.

First Lady says politics is tough, even for Obama girls

She said her daughters had learned to be thick-skinned in an election year.

By Nancy Benac,?The Associated Press / May 29, 2012

First Lady Michelle Obama on ABC's The View Tuesday morning.

Michelle Obama says her daughters are learning that even the kids of politicians have to have a thick skin.

"Politics is tough," the first lady said Tuesday. "That's just sort of the nature of the beast."

But she said daughters Sasha and Malia, at ages 10 and 13, also know that no matter what happens in the November election, "their life is good either way."

Mrs. Obama chatted about family life, this year's re-election campaign and what's not ahead for her ? a career in politics ? during a round of interviews promoting the release of her new book on the White House garden.

As for the personal attacks that swirl around her husband in a campaign year, the first lady said: "You just sort of have to have a thick skin in this thing. And your kids do too."

Malia and Sasha "understand that their world is secure no matter what," Mrs. Obama said on ABC's "The View." ''They've grown to understand that home is wherever we are. ... And Dad is always going to be Dad. So they're good."

The first lady left no doubt on the question of a political future of her own.

"Those are other people's rumors," she said. "I have no interest in politics. Never have. Never will."

She added: "The one thing that is certain: I will serve. I will serve in some capacity."

Mrs. Obama said her work to support military families "is a forever proposition. They will always need a voice out there."

Later, with Jon Stewart of "The Daily Show," Mrs. Obama talked about the virtues of fresh veggies and wouldn't bite at a Stewart suggestion that she use her higher poll ratings as a weapon in any argument with her husband.

"I don't wield it over him," she said. "One of the things I've seen over the last 3 1/2 years, I've seen what it takes to be president. I kind of watch this thing pretty closely. You know, the president is getting all the hard decisions, where there is no easy answer."

During her media tour the first lady offered other tidbits about the Obama family, and her efforts to promote healthy eating and exercise:

?The president isn't much of a griller-in-chief. "He doesn't mind grilling, but I was the griller in our household. ... I love to grill anything," she said in an interview airing Thursday on "Rachael Ray."

?She doesn't have to worry about deer or other animals nibbling on plants in the White House garden, thanks to "a big fence and men with guns," she said on "The View." There were some pesky birds to contend with, however.

?Her effort to fight childhood obesity "isn't about government telling people what to do," she told ABC's "Good Morning America." It's designed to give families information, support and resources to find their own solutions.

The first lady's gardening book, released Tuesday by Crown Publishers, is "American Grown: The Story of the White House Kitchen Garden and Gardens Across America."

Russian tycoon unexpectedly quits as CEO of TNK-BP

(AP) ? Russian tycoon Mikhail Fridman on Monday unexpectedly announced his resignation as chief executive of TNK-BP, the Russian venture of British oil company BP.

TNK-BP said in a statement that Fridman has submitted a letter of resignation as CEO and chairman of the management board and is due to step down in 30 days. It did not specify the reason, but BP's representative in Russia, Vladimir Buyanov, said Fridman left the compnay for "personal reasons."

Fridman is considered one of the most influential people in the venture, which he was to head throughout 2013.

TNK-BP, which is owned in equal parts by BP and a group of Russian billionaire shareholders known as AAR, has been plagued by shareholder conflicts much of the time since it was formed in 2003.

The company said it will be run by "a group of executives who hold powers of attorney related to their areas of responsibility" before a replacement is found for Fridman. BP sought to play down the importance of Fridman's resignation, saying he was not involved in running the company on a day-to-day basis.

BP has pledged to work with AAR to appoint a replacement "as soon as reasonably possible," said Buyanov.

AAR was not immediately available for comment.

A multi-billion deal with Russian state-owned firm Rosneft to tap for oil in the Artic broke down last year after AAR blocked it, claiming BP should be pursuing such a deal through TNK-BP.

TNK-BP's shares on Moscow's MICEX stock exchange dipped immediately after the announcement but recovered half an hour afterward to hover 1 percent higher than Friday's close, in line with the market.

Tips On How You Can Achieve Your Dream Wedding











The only required elements of a wedding are the bride, the groom, a minister, and, naturally, love itself. All of the other things, while they can add to the experience of the overall day, are added stresses and distractions. This article will help you have a wedding to remember.

Make sure you do a little research on what the weather is going to be like. If it's excessively hot, guests might not be comfortable at a long outdoor wedding. On the other hand, if it is too cold, your guests may exit early. Provide comfort to your guests with small accommodations and features, like having fans available if you are having a summer wedding.

Be sure to inform the caterer that your reception will be outside. They will need to plan your meal knowing that the weather could be less than ideal for your food. You could use covered chafing dishes, or keep the food inside a tent. If you can, use a small fridge for keeping drinks cool.

If you aren't planning a reception meal, choose comfortable furniture for seating instead of tables and chairs. You can witness far more social interaction among your guests if they are seated in chaises, lounges and maybe even comfortable sectionals. Plush seating offers a way for their to be separate lounging areas, as well as a place for guests to get comfortable and relax.

Create a list of what you want to have at your wedding, ranking items by importance. Flowers are usually one of the most important parts of a wedding, and the cake and venue are usually up near the top, too. By having a plan of what is most important to you, you can set aside funding for each item and ensure you get the wedding of your dreams.

One affordable alternative to elaborate floral arrangements is placing multiple potted plants of varying sizes throughout the ceremony and reception sites. Seek out plants in lovely glazed pots, or make a simple stone look elegant with some ribbons and paint. When the wedding is over, the guests can then take those plants home with them as a favor and have a constant reminder of the new couple.

If at all possible, you should schedule a relaxing or calming ritual for the morning of the big day. A massage is an excellent use of your time, or if you prefer a manicure and pedicure that's an option as well.

Choose wedding decorations that reflect your personality and that of your partner. Your decorations should also help tell the story of your relationship with the person. Pick out a theme that reflects your time together.

For example, choosing which flowers you want to have in your bouquet or table settings will rely on what's available in your new location. Contact florists near the destination and you can find out which flowers are available.

If you intend to hold your wedding outdoors, devise a contingency plan in case weather or other problems prevent the wedding from going smoothly. Set up a large canopy for shade or rain. A location with access to the indoors would also work well, just in case of bad weather. By placing wooden planks onto the ground, your guests can have their footwear protected from the mud.

A piece of fabric that matches your cake can be placed on a table and function as the focal point. A pretty tablecloth made of textured fabric, velvet, shiny satin or a lace that matches the wedding dress are all nice choices.

For couples that enjoy traveling, look for wedding items and decorations that reflect this interest. For example, you could make your wedding invites or your save-the-date cards look as though they were vintage postcards or travel passes. You could use a worn leather suitcase to display things such as your wedding program, photographs, or favors for the guest.

If you have plenty of extra time but not a lot of extra money, then consider printing your own wedding invitations. Creating your own invitations from a kit will give you more choices, including the ink color, creating your own wording and your choice of font.

Do not crowd tables with too many flowers. Flowers can be obstructive to guests a lot of the time. Additionally, many people are allergic to flowers. Try putting some scent free candles on your wedding tables.

If you want your colorful wedding cake as the focal point of your reception, present it on a coordinating fabric tablecloth. Whether you use a solid piece of fabric or opt for one with a pattern, choosing the right material can help attract your guests' attention and create a more stunning visual display. Consider the fabric's texture as well as its color when choosing display fabrics.

You will probably want to take pictures with many of the guests that attend your wedding. If you don't have a predetermined schedule, it can be very difficult to track everyone down for pictures during your event. Tell your guests where and when you will be taking pictures and make sure your photographer also knows.

Perhaps following family traditions is tempting, but remember that this day is about you and your spouse. Thank them for any suggestions and kindly decline their ideas with an explanation that it is your turn to make these decisions. This will ensure that you have no regrets when you look back on the day you got married.

Flowers look beautiful as centerpieces on the dinner tables, but don't overdo it. In many cases, it will just prevent guests from talking to each other. Plus, some guests may be allergic to flowers. Opt for using non-scented candles instead of flower arrangements for a romantic and luxurious look.

Receptions are best held in the early afternoon. Most people will drink less during the day, which will cut back on the cost to fill the bar. Post-lunch receptions usually cost less, too. The money saved here can be used elsewhere.

Planning a wedding can be very stressful, so in order to give yourself enough time to prepare, set a date where you can get everything done. By planning early and developing a time line, you can ensure that everything will be completed on schedule, allowing you to rest the day before the wedding. If you can find time for it, schedule a relaxing activity.

Religious practices will be a part of your wedding, and also an important part of your marriage. It may help to discuss this with your families so that they understand how you plan on handling dual faiths in your marriage.

A lot of people dream of their wedding for their whole lives, right up to the moment it happens. This gives weddings an almost ethereal feel. The planning can be overwhelming though. The above advice should be a boon to you while you plan your wedding day, and provide you a sense of relief.

Disabled vet battles for military contracts for his small business

PHILADELPHIA ? They were 12 hairy years in Sherman Barton?s life. The Burlington County, N.J., resident worked in military intelligence for the U.S. Army in Germany and Italy from 1972 to 1984, getting shot three separate times while hunting terrorists, he said.

The personal toll was vast, including the loss of two ribs, a part of his lower intestines and some hearing, along with three broken neck vertebrae, ankle stiffness and instability, muscle weakness and depression.

Those injuries earned Barton an honorable discharge and classification by the Department of Veterans Affairs as having ?a 100 percent permanent and total service-connected disability.?

It was a tough-to-take classification for the Edgewater Park resident whose military career was distinguished by his ability to hold up against many physical challenges.

Twenty-six years later ? and after an 18-year second career as a disabled-veterans counselor and special projects coordinator at the Department of Veterans Affairs in Philadelphia ? Barton would see a silver lining in his disability designation: a leg up in competing for federal government contracts as a small-business owner. Or so he thought.

Even with laws and a presidential executive order in place to help steer government work to Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, or SDVOSBs, Barton said he has found the opportunities maddeningly few and the process for securing such work too slow and unreliable on which to build a business.

He?s on a mission to change that. His primary target is one of the largest Department of Defense purchasing centers in the United States ? Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support in northeast Philadelphia. The center provides more than $14.5 billion annually in food, clothing, textiles, medicines, medical supplies, construction equipment and industrial hardware to troops around the world and others in need.

After two years of emails, calls and near-monthly visits to DLA Troop Support ? including an unauthorized failed attempt in October to see the commander ? Barton?s supply company, VE Source LLC in Shrewsbury, Monmouth County, N.J., which currently is solely focused on getting government work, has secured just one SDVOSB contract. Awarded in March, it is worth $111,420 for 250 portable tents.

?How can you call this trying?? Barton said he has asked officials at DLA more than once.

According to the agency, DLA had 1,045 SDVOSB contracts totaling $62 million in 2010 and 3,780 valued at $48 million last year.

In all, DLA?s small-business contracts totaled $2.4 billion in 2011, or 30.7 percent of the contract dollars eligible for small businesses. The remaining

$5.4 billion in work eligible for small-business awards went, instead, to larger domestic companies. DLA officials said they feel a responsibility to support bigger firms to ensure they will be around at times of heavy need, such as troop deployment.

Barton said he has been assured by DLA officials that more opportunities are coming for small businesses owned by disabled veterans. Those assurances have been accompanied by reminders that the agency must also answer to other mandates, including that it provide work when possible to programs that employ federal prison inmates, and the blind or severely disabled. DLA Troop Support?s contracts to two such primary programs, Federal Prison Industries and AbilityOne, totaled $422 million last year, said spokeswoman Stacey Hajdak.

By law, those programs are given priority over service-disabled veterans and other small-business subsets, such as women-owned and minority-owned firms.

?That?s kind of a delicate balancing act we have to go through,? Michael McCall, director of small business at DLA in Philadelphia, said earlier this month.

?As the (federal) budget shrinks, that balancing act gets more and more difficult because everybody is trying to get their share of the pie.?

Barton, 59, VE Source?s president and majority owner, said he doesn?t begrudge set-asides for other groups. He just wants more action for himself and other disabled veterans trying to forge new careers. Those opportunities are imperative as troops return home from Iraq and Afghanistan to a stingy job market, said Barton, who plans to hire disabled veterans as soon as his company lands some substantial deals.

?With the downsizing of the military, there are going to be more and more veterans like myself trying to start companies because there is no employment for them in the civilian sector,? Barton said last week.

He formed VE Source with two partners in 2010 to take advantage of an executive order issued by President Bush in October 2004 to strengthen opportunities for SDVOSBs. That directive called on the heads of federal agencies to ?more effectively implement? previously adopted SDVOSB initiatives.

They included the Veterans Entrepreneurship and Small Business Development Act of 1999, which established an annual governmentwide goal of awarding not less than 3 percent in total value of all prime contracts and subcontracts to SDVOSBs.

In December 2003, the Veterans Benefits Act was passed by Congress to build upon the 1999 measure. For instance, it allowed ? but did not require ? federal contracting officers to restrict competition to SDVOSBs and award a sole-source or set-aside contract under certain conditions, such as if it could be done at a fair market price.

In May 2004, the Small Business Administration established a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business Concern Program to implement the Veterans Benefits Act, establishing criteria and guidelines.

From Barton?s perspective, it was an encouraging string of initiatives ? until he retired from his Veterans Administration job in December 2009 and ventured into the trying world of entrepreneurship and DLA Troop Support.

The military supply agency would represent little more than tantalizing but unrealized opportunities, Barton said. Take, for example, a $28 million contract for cold-weather jackets for which VE Source submitted a bid to provide in July 2010. Seventeen extensions later, the contract still has not been awarded, Barton said.

?It?s just bad bureaucracy,? he said, adding that few small businesses have the financial wherewithal to endure such a waiting game.

At a closed hearing in December held at Burlington County College in Mount Laurel, one of Barton?s partners, Christopher Neary, told the House Armed Services Committee?s Defense Business Panel that the DLA ?is not doing right by the policy of the executive order for the SDVO small business program or the veterans themselves,? according to a copy of his remarks.

Long before that hearing, deficiencies with the SDVOSB procurement program had apparently registered at DLA headquarters in Fort Belvoir, Va., according to a July 2010 internal memo obtained by The Philadelphia Inquirer. In it, Nancy Heimbaugh, acquisition management director, and Peg Meehan, then-director of the office of small business programs, urged recipients to ?reinvigorate your efforts to increase business opportunities for SDVOSB concerns.?

The memo concluded: ?Our wounded warrior entrepreneurs deserve nothing less.?

At DLA Troop Support in Philadelphia, McCall said he shares that sentiment.

?We have the utmost respect for these people,? he said.

McCall would not discuss why the contract for cold-weather jackets still has not been awarded nearly two years after bids were solicited.

?I can?t go over the issues because it?s an open acquisition,? said McCall, a 30-year veteran of government contracting.

In general, such contracts, especially for large acquisitions, require substantial research, in part to determine if the companies wanting the work are legitimate and can be counted on, and if their costs are in line.

?Our No. 1 priority is we support the warfighter and we do that at a fair and reasonable price,? McCall said. ?We?re stewards of the taxpayer. We want to make sure we spend wisely.?

He acknowledged Barton?s frustrations and did not fault his aggressive efforts to be heard, including the former Army intelligence officer?s unauthorized visit in October to the office of Rear Admiral David F. Baucom, who happened to be out of town.

?The same tenacity they had that served us well in the military, they brought to business,? McCall said of veterans as a whole.

Months later, Baucom took what McCall said was unusual action. He called Barton in February to discuss his complaints about the lack of set-asides for SDVOSBs.

?He assured me that the future would be brighter,? Barton said.

A month later, VE Source got the tent contract, its first sale. McCall said other SDVOSB opportunities are in the pipeline, including a $50 million contract for Navy uniforms, a $20 million deal for body bags, and a $4 million agreement for rifle slings.

?The trend is definitely, well hopefully, going up,? he said.

As the region?s only procurement center representative for the SBA, Ricardo Sacidor keeps pressure on the DLA to provide work for all varieties of small business. He also warns those business owners that dealing with government is far different than the private sector in that ?we don?t have the luxury of making deals because we like you. When you are a contracting officer, you represent the taxpayer.?

Having been a government employee for 30 years, Barton gets that. He just wants improvement.

?I?m not expecting anybody to give me anything,? he said. ?I want the opportunity to compete.?

Rumor: Facebook To Buy Opera Software To Join Browser Wars

Okay take this with some skepticism as there is no official confirmation about this yet, and the only source for the article is an unnamed one. According to web magazine Pocket-Lint, Facebook is considering buying the Norwegian company Opera Software, which developers the Opera web browser for various platforms.

Opera Software, which had a very strong q1 financially is known for the Opera desktop browser, one the two major browsers that is not backed by a multi-billion Dollar company (the other is Mozilla), the mobile versions of the browser. Recently, the company has also made further investments in the advertisement space, improving the impressions served to 86 billion in the first quarter of 2012.

A Facebook owned Opera browser would provide Facebook with additional revenue possibilities, and save it from creating a browser of their own. And Opera?s experience in the mobile market could improve Facebook?s presence here, both app-wise but also advertising-wise.

For Opera it could mean additional manpower and development funds to develop the browsers in a faster pace.

opera panels

It is the users that may have issues with the acquisition, if the rumor should turn out to be true, considering that a Facebook browser would certainly make some changes that the devoted community may not be pleased with at all. One change could be the tight integration with Facebook, another that certain features of the browser may be modified or retired completely to streamline it further.

So how realistic is the rumor? Opera Software is a public company with a revenue of about 160 million in the last four quarters. It is definitely a possibility that Facebook would make an offer for the company if it is really interested in getting into the browser market. It is actually the only company with a market share of more than 1% that is available at all, as the top 4 remaining companies are owned by Microsoft, Apple, Google and Mozilla, who all would not even think of selling their browser to Facebook.

For now I?d say it is unlikely that Facebook will buy Opera Software, and the main reason for that is that the source has not been mentioned. For all I know, this could be some form of link-baiting. What is your take?
