This is despite attempts by authorities to control the rioting and the number of blazes across the northern suburbs of Sweden's capital. Reportedly several cars and two schools were torched. Emergency services have been stretched to the limit with over 90 different blazes being reported on Wednesday night alone. The fires are mostly of cars and trucks that have been set alight by gangs of youths. Several buildings have also been vandalised, including a police station. On Wednesday, a school was also set ablaze. The riots have been ongoing since Sunday night and were a seemingly spontaneous reaction to the shooting of a 69-year-old man in the Husby suburb of Stockholm by police officers. The man, who had locked himself in an apartment, was reportedly wielding a knife when the police shot him. Eighty percent of residents of Husby are first- and second-generation immigrants, although the ethnic origin of the 69-year-old man has been witheld by authorities. Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt has condemned the violence and has asked residents to remain calm. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=83c_1369379803 Ruptly Sweden: <span class="highlight">Stockholm</span> sizzles as riots continue for fifth night Sweden, suburbs, riots Fri, 24 May 2013 12:12:53 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=b7d_1369411182 Soloworks It's about time. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=b7d_1369411182 Soloworks <span class="highlight">Stockholm</span>'s burning and Sweden is changing City,burnung,cars,outrage,change in politics,finally,fifth night in a row Fri, 24 May 2013 16:50:20 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=ae0_1369427258 SpartacusTesla http://www.vice.com/read/we-watched-the-stockholm-suburbs-burning ... really beginning to love this channel. Media blowing things out of proportion is not a new thing. But after this weeks events and public ( as well as LiveLeak ) response from everyone, I am beginning to realize something else: Many people WANT drama in their lives. They WANT to have an enemy to hate. So they easily allow themselves to feel threatened, when in reality, the things that should scare us more ( Cancer from cigarettes and pollution, deteriorating health care, less fulfilling lives then our parents and grandparents who had less technology, Justin Bieber's new album coming out) are overlooked. The population of Muslims in England is less than 5%. That's a fact. One man was killed earlier this week by 2 lunatics. Sad, but it was one man. How many dies from drunk driving or cancer from cigarettes since then in England? Here are the statistics on Muslim population in England, and please read the VICE article, it's not what you would expect, and it has given me a newfound respect to the way Swedes conduct themselves. Population of England : 53 Million United Kingdom Census 2011 suggesting that by 2011 the total Muslim population had reached 2.7 million, 4.8% of the total population 1,500 mosques for 2.7 million Muslims. Go to any mosque on Friday the holy day, and I promise you at most you will see a couple hundred. Which shows only a small percent even go to the mosque during the holy day, no different than church. Search as much as you want for videos and photos of the &quot;riots&quot; in London the other night, and you will see the same guys, and the same footage. Perhaps 50-100 drunks walking around the town all night long. That's all. That's all. Relax everyone. Relax.

What was supposed to become a building of 40 flights became 26. S"oder Torn on S"odermalm in central Stockholm was finalized 1997, but the architect Henning Larsen had already left the contract after having lost influence over the design of the tower. Belatchew Arkitekter wants to give S"oder Torn its original proportions and at the same time explore new techniques that could create the urban wind farm of the future. By using piezoelectric technology a large number of thin straws can produce electricity merely through small movements generated by the wind. The result is a new kind of wind power plant that opens up possibilities of how buildings can produce energy. With the help of this technique surfaces on both old and new buildings can be transformed into energy producing entities. Furthermore, an additional aspect is revealed when the constant movement of the straws creates an undulating landscape on the facades. What is usually considered to be the most static of all things, the building, suddenly comes alive and the construction gives the impression of a body that is breathing. The straws swaying in the wind gives the building a constantly changing facade further reinforced at nighttime with lighting in changing colors. The straws of the facade consist of a composite material with piezoelectric properties that can turn motion into electrical energy. Piezoelectricity is created when certain crystals' deformation is transformed into electricity. The technique has advantages when compared to traditional wind turbines since it is quite and does not disturb wildlife. It functions at low wind velocity since only a light breeze is sufficient for the straws to start swaying and generate energy. The existing premise on top of the building is replaced with a public floor with room for a restaurant. The new extension creates, a part from the energy producing shell, room for the citizens with the possibility to reach a lookout platform at the very top of the tower with an unmatched view of Stockholm.

Some 15 percent of the population are foreign-born, and unemployment among these stands at 16 percent, compared with 6 percent for native Swedes, according to OECD data. Out of a total 103,000 immigrants last year, 43,900 were asylum seekers, almost 50 percent up from 2011 . Nearly half of these were refugees from fighting in Syria, Afghanistan or Somalia, and will get at least temporary residency. Among 44 industrialized countries, Sweden ranks fourth in the absolute number of asylum seekers. Djalaie said youths were often stopped by police in the streets for unnecessary identity checks. During the riots, he said some police called local youths "apes" . http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=684_1369351431 Freeman0092 4th day of riots in <span class="highlight">Stockholm</span>, Sweden riots, europe, stockholm, sweden, Sverige, husby, civil war, 2013 Thu, 23 May 2013 09:51:54 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=4fe_1369316735 Zurm Smashed windows and cars on fire - one of Europe's most peaceful capitals, Stockholm, is witnessing its worst outbreak of violence in years. Hundreds of youths, mostly immigrants, have ripped through the city's suburbs in four nights of unrest. The violence has shocked the country, famous for its attractive immigration policies and generous welfare system. Sweden has for years been accepting immigrants who fail to integrate, and are only there to get money for nothing - that's the view of Swedish journalist Ingrid Carlqvist. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=4fe_1369316735 Zurm Sweden burning: <span class="highlight">Stockholm</span> riots &amp; violence enter 4th day Sweden,burning,Stockholm,riots,violence,islam,muslim Wed, 22 May 2013 07:23:38 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=005_1369221670 Ruptly Riots in Stockholm's suburbs continued for the third night after the fatal shooting of a 69-year old man by Swedish police triggered street violence. The shooting took place on 13 May with riots ongoing since Sunday 19 May. The rioters consist mainly of young people who say they are protesting against police brutality and inequality in Sweden. Rocks were hurled at police and cars have been set alight. The man killed by the police was reported to have been wielding a knife after locking himself in an apartment building in the Husby suburb of Stockholm. It remains unclear why lethal force was used. Police have refused to give the nationality of the victim. The Husby suburb of 11,000 people has been the centre of the riots. Of that number an estimated 80% are first- and second-generation immigrants. The Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt disapproves the violence and asks the inhabitants of the area to remain calm. Other suburbs of Stockholm were also affected by the riots, including the suburb of Jakobsberg. According to the police officer, Charlotte Bengtsson "A few minutes before midnight, people were calling us telling us that there were smashed windows in the centre if Jakobsberg and that several shops had their windows broken. We then received information that there were people moving towards the police station in Jakobsberg. When our personnel arrived we met around 30 individuals who were throwing rocks at us and blocking the way to the police station." http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=005_1369221670 Ruptly Sweden: <span class="highlight">Stockholm</span> riots burn on for third night Stockholm, Sweden, riot, fire, police, violence, clashes, shooting, protest, Husby Wed, 22 May 2013 03:17:43 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=b1c_1369205860 kauan Source: http://gatesofvienna.net/2013/05/carbecues-in-the-stockholm-banlieues/ It seems that Stockholm has become the Paris of the North - but probably not in a way that would gladden the heart of a Swedish tourism minister. A third night of rioting has engulfed the suburbs of Stockholm, spreading from Husby to Tensta, Kista, Rinkeby, Jakobsberg, and other culturally enriched neighborhoods. The Swedish and Norwegian media are covering the events (assiduously avoiding saying anything about the ethnicity or immigrant status of the perpetrators), but I'm told that Danish outlets have so far made no mention of what is happening in the capital of their Nordic neighbor. Which is curious, considering the Denmark is generally more open than Norway or Sweden. Many thanks to The Observer for translating this article from Aftenposten: More car fires and unrest in various locations in Stockholm For the third night in a row riots have broken out in the Swedish capital. Cars are burning in various locations in and around the city according to Swedish media reports late Tuesday night. In addition to the car fires a barn, Husby Gard , which houses a cafe and an art center, have been torched according to Svenska Dagbladet According to the newspaper, the fire department is at the scene, but the building is completely ablaze. Kindergarten is burning Cars have been torched in several suburbs in the northwestern parts of Stockholm, including in Husby, Tensta and Kista, writes DN.se. Cars are also burning in the southwestern part of the city, according to the newspaper. In Husby, a kindergarten was set on fire, but the fire was put out just before one o'clock on Wednesday morning, writes Aftonbladet . "We're not used to dealing with situations like this on such a scale. It's hard when it spreads to different areas," says Lars-Aker Stevelin, leader of operations at the S"odert"orn fire station, to the newspaper. Threw rocks at the police Aftonbladet writes that according to police reports, rescue personnel in Norsborg in the southwestern part of Stockholm had rocks thrown at them during the riots. DN.se writes that the police were engaged in a confrontation with youths outside the police station in Jakobsberg, in the northwestern region of Stockholm. Youths threw objects at the police and the police station was exposed to vandalism, the newspaper writes Third night in a row This is the third night in a row that major unrest has erupted in and around Stockholm. The riots allegedly started after police officers shot and killed a 69-year-old immigrant who was threatening people with a knife in Husby. Several commentators have pointed, however, out that the root causes goes deeper and that the turmoil is a result of social decay. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=b1c_1369205860 kauan Mayhem In Sweden Part 3 - Riots Spread All Over <span class="highlight">Stockholm</span> Scandinavia Norway Denmark Sweden Svenska Swedish Stockholm Husby Tensta Rinkeby Immigration Immigrant Riots Arson Car Fires Torched Police Station Vandalism Clashes Chaos Mon, 20 May 2013 19:23:15 -0400 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=dfa_1369091373 TheAnswer May 19th, 2013 - Violent riots broke out in immigrant suburb of Stockholm Husby evening May 19, 2013, including car fires, building fires, broken windows and throwing stones at police.
