SAVONLINNA Oliver Bjorkstrand Jersey , Finland, July 27 (Xinhua) -- While world politics and environmental issues dominated the press conference after the talks between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Finnish counterpart Sauli Niinisto on Thursday, Finnish analysts identified Putin's implicit messages related to the role of Finland.


Long-time Finnish MP Ilkka Kanerva, chairman of the parliamentary defence committee, commented that Putin again said between the lines that he does not want Finland or Sweden to join NATO.


"When Putin mentioned 'neutral countries in the Baltic sphere' and 'Finnish independent foreign policy', he sent the message he does not want to see all of the Baltic basin as members of NATO," said Kanerva.


Markku Kivinen, director of the Aleksanteri Institute of Helsinki University, said Putin sent a tacit message to Finland to act independently in the European Union (EU).


Interviewed by the newspaper Helsingin Sanomat, Kivinen referred to Putin's appreciation of Finland for its "independent foreign policy".


Kivinen saw the wording also an expression of the Russian view of the current Finnish foreign policy.


In the Russian view, independent foreign policy is part of Finland's independence, Kivinen said.


At the join press conference, Niinisto said Finland wants to develop good relations with various directions. He noted that Finland is part of the EU, and the EU is an important direction of cooperation to Finland.

More than 50 million Americans participated in the sport of bowling at least once last year. About 4 million participate in a weekly league each year. While these figures are not as high as they were in the bowling peak of the 1960's and 70's it is easy to see that bowling is still a wildly popular sport.

For many people their first exposure to bowling is a recreational outing of some sort, a birthday party, a school function, a family outing, a date, etc. For many it ends there, they have decided they either had a bad experience, or just have no desire to explore the sport further. Others, maybe got lucky, threw a few strikes and are now hooked, they would like to learn to play the game better, and maybe even bowl in a league, or competitively.

Getting from the raw beginner stage to an intermediate level, does involve some education, just getting on the approach and throwing the ball as hard as you can in the general direction of the pins is not going to allow consistent high scores.

Lets begin with an overview of where the game is played. A bowling center usually consists of an even number of lanes anything from 2 and up; some centers have 80 plus lanes. A bowling lane is 60 feet long, 41 to 42 inches wide, with a 9 and 14 inch gutter on each side for errant balls, there is a foul line at the start of the bowling surface that you must stay behind, and an approach area of about 15 feet. At one time all lanes were constructed of 39 maple boards placed on edge and laminated together, however over time wood wears down and needs an expensive refinishing job. Many lanes are now constructed with an approved plastic surface that does not wear as easily; these surfaces are stamped the still look like the original wood boards. When you hear someone refer to the 5 board or really any other board number, start counting at 1 from the right.

Originally, there were no markings allowed on the lane surface, accomplished bowlers would identify a wood grain feature in the area they wanted their ball to cross and use that as a target. Now there are consistent targets in the form of locater dots, arrows, and others embedded or stamped into the surface of the lane, these targets are a great help in controls how your ball gets to your target. The locater dots are allowed at specific distances from the foul line both on the lane and on the approach, the seven arrows are placed from 12 to 16 feet from the foul line starting with the 5 board, then the 10 board and so on and are usually arranged in a pattern with the center arrow farther away, however they could also be in a line across the lane. The other 4 equally placed targets, if used are at about 33 feet down the lane, and are a visual clue as to where your ball should start hooking into the pins.

The approach and basic delivery will be described for a right handed bowler, if you are left handed, you will just reverse most of the instructions.

Let's begin with the stance and approach, you stand on the approach facing the foul line in a relaxed stance, the bowling ball is held in your right hand, with your hand roughly under and supporting the ball, your arm is positioned to the right side so as to allow your arm to swing back and forward, your feet should be together with your left foot a little ahead of your right. To determine the correct starting point on the approach takes a little experimentation. The correct approach begins with a step forward with your right foot, usually consists of 3,5,or 7 steps ending with a controlled slide to the foul line on your left foot. Now stand on the approach with your heels at the foul line and your back to the pins, walk away from the foul line the number of steps you think you will take in your approach, this will be the approximate distance from the foul line you will start at.
