First time I order for delivery, I waited for the delivery and never arrive!!
once I called back (after wasting over 3 hours of my time). apparently my delivery wasn't book at all... so I have to rebooked for another day and waist again my time waiting for the delivery!!
The second time (and last!) I been waiting for the delivery and when it's arrive, it is a completely different shopping!!!
So I had to call back, and they said they have to wait for all the deliveries to come back and then they will see what they do!!! unbelievable!!!
when I ask the manager, that I paid for the food, I waited for the food, so I wanted my food... He answered "sorry, I can not magically make it appear on your house, so you need to wait!!!"
very good Iceland, keep loosing customers.
After 1 YEAR! waiting for my furniture they only delivery one of the 3 items I bought!!! the box was broken and the table is damage!!!
They haven't answer none of my calls or complains during the whole year! and still don't reply to my queries!!! it is imposible to call them over the phone as never answer them and neither do trough emails.
I wouldn't advise anyone to buy from them

Quote of the Day
September 04, 2013
"I have been influenced by pretty much by cultural music from all over the world. I have studied personally all kinds of music, you know, from Africa to India, to Chinese, Japanese, music is music and it is all beautiful. So, I am influenced by all of those different cultures." – Michael, in a 1996 interview.

On Thursday, October 23rd, I spent the day at Fort Lewis College in Durango, Colorado (elevation 6,872 feet). The college is located about 25 miles north of the New Mexico and Colorado border and it is really one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.
My day was packed! I had an 8:00 a.m. presentation, a radio interview on KDUR, lunch and dinner discussions with students (who were all exceptionally bright), an afternoon presentation, and finally a screening of I.O.U.S.A.. My guides at the "Fort" were Professors Jennifer Stollman and John Gadbois.
The theme for the day was fiscal literacy. Both Professors Stollman and Gadbois are concerned that students are not being exposed to the implications of the long-term challenges our nation faces and that younger people are not being given the skills to be literate about fiscal issues. The professors had already traveled to Washington, D.C. for a presentation by Concord Chief Economist Diane Lim Rogersand the Heritage Foundation's Stuart Butler, and have been encouraged to focus on fiscal education by Acting President and Provostfor Fort Lewis College, Steve Roderick. I was thrilled that Provost Roderick joined us at most of the day's events.
During my morning presentation, I discussed the basics of the federal budget, the long-term challenges...

Carried on the Waves
Use Garl's Net to obtain 4 Bloodpetal Seeds.
- Un'Goro Lasher Seed × 4
- Garl's Net (Provided)
The Bloodpetals of Un'Goro have a fascinating life cycle.
These trees in front of us bear seeds that fall down into the river when they mature. The river's current then takes the seed north of here, where the seed hatches - almost like an egg - and a newborn Bloodpetal emerges.
I require these seeds for my studies. Take this net, and use it to scoop up the bright orange seeds in the river. You'll have to hunt them down under the water.

Catastrophe Insurance Risks:
Status of Efforts to Securitize Natural Catastrophe and Terrorism Risk
GAO-03-1033: Published: Sep 24, 2003. Publicly Released: Oct 24, 2003.
Additional Materials:

(202) 512-5431
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
In addition to potentially costing hundreds or thousands of lives, a natural or terrorist catastrophe in the United States could place enormous financial demands on the insurance industry, businesses, and taxpayers. Given these financial demands, interest has been raised in bonds that are sold in the capital markets and thereby diversify catastrophe funding sources. GAO was asked to update a 2002 report on "catastrophe bonds" and assess (1) their progress in transferring natural catastrophe risks to the capital markets, (2) factors that may affect the issuance of catastrophe bonds by insurance companies, (3) factors that may affect investment in catastrophe bonds, and (4) the potential for and challenges associated with securitizing terrorism-related financial risks.
The market for catastrophe bonds, as discussed in our 2002 report, has transferred a small portion of natural catastrophe risk to the capital markets. From 1997 through 2002, a private firm has estimated that a total of 46 catastrophe bonds were issued or about 8 per year. Another firm estimated that the nearly $3 billion in catastrophe bonds outstanding for 2002 represented 2.5 to 3.0 percent of the worldwide catastrophe reinsurance market. Some insurance and reinsurance companies issue catastrophe bonds because they allow for risk transfer and may lower the costs of insuring against the most severe catastrophes. However, other insurers do not issue catastrophe bonds because their costs are higher than transferring risks to other insurers. Although some investors see catastrophe bonds as an attractive investment because they offer high returns and portfolio diversification, others believe that the bonds' risks are too high or too costly to assess. To date, no catastrophe bonds related to terrorism have been issued covering potential targets in the United States, and the general consensus of most experts GAO contacted is that issuing such securities would not be practical at this time due in part to the challenges of predicting the frequency and severity of terrorist attacks.

More revenues? What about the spending cuts?
"There is no doubt we need additional revenue, coupled with smart spending reductions in order to bring down our deficit," he said during a CBS News interview aired right before the Super Bowl.
That raises a few questions.
1. If he really wants to reduce the deficit, why did he produce four straight budgets with deficits of more than $1 trillion?
2. Does anyone really believe that his new budget (which was due on Monday, by the way) will contain no new spending and instead devote all new revenues to deficit reduction?
3. If revenues are to be "coupled with smart spending reductions," then shouldn't both come at the same time? Why is it always revenues first, spending reductions later?
Republicans in the U.S. House need to insist that the President present real spending reductions before or in conjunction with his plan to raise revenue. Then they should insist that the spending cuts be passed and signed into law before any vote on revenue is taken. Let's not fall again for the "I'll cut spending after you raise taxes" trick.

Feb 4th 2013 08:11 am Weight Watchers
Wow! That's what I call interesting! Scientists and historians have positively identified the body of Richard III, a well-remembered if not well-loved king of England from the 15th century. The body was exhumed a few months ago from beneath a modern-day parking lot—excuse me, "car park"—in Leicester, England. DNA samples have connected the remains with two living relatives of King Richard. I have never been one to keep up with the tabloid comings and goings of the modern royal family. The only possible interest I'd have in their scandals, genuine or invented, would be prurient, and I choose not to be pandered to in that manner. This King Richard business is different, however. It isn't every day you find a significant character from history buried under a parking lot! I'll leave it to you to Google the details of Richard's infamous reign if you wish, but I'd remind you that Richard III was the inspiration for Shakespeare's play of the same name, to whom was given the immortal line, "A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!" Also, Shakespeare's Richard III was a lamentable role landed by the character Elliot Garfield, an aspiring actor played by Richard Dreyfuss in Neil Simon's 1977 movie "The Goodbye Girl."

And some people are already up in arms about where he will be re-buried. I think he should go on tour. Or put parts of him on ebay.
And who does he belong to?

[Sun. evening] Charlotte: "I do realize that I'm not using the scientific method." Why do you say that? You're not doing a formal scientific study, but you are reporting observations and long term experiences objectively, and not attributing any of what you see to occult forces or such. You are doing fine. But you may have a more benign notion of chipmunks than is warranted. They actually can be quite nasty to each other, and also regularly prey on nestling birds and such. I saw one in Michigan being chased by a pair of cardinals, after it had already nailed one nestling. Chipmunks climb readily and are quite omnivorous. Many ground and tree squirrels are, marmots and prairie dogs being exceptions.
Ruth Anne: "Cornell's college of ornithology." That's the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology, which was founded shortly after I graduated in '51. There was already a dept. of ornithology, and some bird-watchers were unhappy with the direction it was taking after Arthur A. Allen retired, and founded the Lab with independent funds. The difficulties, I understand, have been patched up. Ornithology is one subject area in the N.Y. State College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Cornell is unusual, not unique, in being made of both endowed colleges and state colleges (four): ALS, Human Ecology [formerly Home Economics], Industrial and Labor Relations, and Veterinary Medicine [a grad school]. When Cornell was founded, in the 1860s, it was unique in not being associated with a denomination. Some considered this scandalous; I thought it was great, as did Ezra Cornell and the university's first president, Andrew Dickson White. Good school, even better now than it was at mid-20th century.

Country Boy, ole' Skeeter's been photoshopped into that pic, or else he's aiming wrong. Skeet shooting requires one to aim UP, not straight ahead….. but then, being such a BIG fan of guns, I'm sure ole' Skeeter knew that when he "posed" for that photo……..

eMb – Sorry for getting the name wrong. I had a feeling that wasn't right and didn't feel like taking the time to check, so I didn't capitalize it. The bird count is a great excuse to get outside (or, depending on the local weather, just look out the window) on a long weekend.
Ginger on 04 Feb 2013 at 2:27 pm #
The Prez was shooting sitting skeet. Totally unsportsmanlike. I would love to see him handle that ole skeet gun in real life. Still photos just don't convey control or lack thereof.
sandcastler, Mindy is trying to bring a new act to the Village as well. She wants to introduce her special troupe of dancing Llamas. Is there more than one Tony?

I knew a football coach who went by the name of Skeets. Never did learn how he got that nickname, but assume that somebody must have shot him as he is no longer with us.
Jerry in Fl on 04 Feb 2013 at 3:19 pm #
Maybe he was shooting his lawyer. It worked for Undisclosed Locaton Cheny.
Jerry in Fl on 04 Feb 2013 at 3:26 pm #
As I recall there was smoke coming out of the shotgun. You think maybe someone else fired the gun and then handed it to him. You may want to shop for your next Japanese car in California. They'll have some great deals on imports soon.
Robin in FL on 04 Feb 2013 at 3:46 pm #
Time team! Auggh. used to watch them in England just to see what stupid thing they would do next. I think people let them dig in their yards because they wanted to get a start on a garden.
Country Boy on 04 Feb 2013 at 4:13 pm #
What disturbs me as much as anything is that POTUS obviously has no one on his White House staff with enough familiarity with firearms to be able to pose him firing a shotgun without making it appear to be the first time he'd ever held one. And yet these are the people who presume to decide that an isolated Arizona rancher can't have one of those rifles "no one needs" to protect his family and his property.
Yes, I'd already noticed the skeet being shot at must have been on a fence. But that's what seems to happen these days when someone decides you haven't come down on what they consider the correct side of the political fence. Even here in the Village.
Mary in Ohio on 04 Feb 2013 at 4:20 pm #
Back when the History Channel showed actual History programs, research indicated that the remains of Hitler and Eva Braun were below a parking lot in Berlin.
And there is plenty to indicate that Richard III wasn't the demon he has been portrayed as. If you want a wonderful historical mystery, find Josephine Tey's "The Daughter of Time."
Of course in Romania,Vlad Dracul is regarded as a patriot. (And nobody in NE Ohio regards Bill Belichek as a genius. Just sayin'.)
Mark in TTown on 04 Feb 2013 at 4:43 pm #
Thanks for the update, Jimmy. I had wondered when they would release the information. Thank you for the BBC links, Trapper Jean. Great photos on that site.
Country Boy, it was just another political stunt of the type used by all politicians. Not worth further comment from me. -
Charlotte in NH on 04 Feb 2013 at 5:12 pm #
Ruth Anne — thank you for the info. on the Bird Count. I read all about it from the Web site, but don't plan to go for it as I have an awful lot of "stuff" to do here. Posting the observations on the Web site looks rather daunting. But I'm sure it will be fun for those who can tackle it.
eMb, Interesting comments on the Chipmunks. I am a realist and know that Nature is "red in tooth and claw" but on the other hand, as a human, I do find them cute and appealing. A good long-time friend, who doesn't let facts interfere with her opinions sometimes, complained about Chipmunks bitterly. She HATES them with a passion. They got into her house and did some damage and she is CONVINCED that they EAT the pink Fiberglas insulation. I remonstrated feebly but no, she believes it so I quit trying to make her see reason.
I like your stories about Cornell. I have visted Ithaca several times and enjoyed the gorges, and especially the Cornell Plantations. Wish I could have spent lots more days or weeks at the arboretum and the greenhouses.
One of our daughters studied for two years at a Boston area college, then decided to transfer to Cornell because her boyfriend was going there to pursue a Masters degree. After they got their degrees, they were so fond of the Finger Lakes region that they never left. They are married now and have two boys; the older is 20. So we visited every year or two or three.

They finally decided to end the situation in Midland, Al and the shooter is dead. Probably from lack of sleep. Poor joke,they shot him. Technology has advanced greatly since the fiasco in Waco and they could have gotten him out immediately, but the effects on a grown man and a small child could be very different. The child has aspergers and the effects have already been very bad I'm sure.

Re chipmonks and squirrels, I have seen our southern greyish brown, one totally albino, one completely white in front and brown in back, white in the Rockies and one completely black in the Thousand Islands.

Jerry – one of the kid's neighbors was interviewed saying – very gently – that if this went on much longer, the boy might manifest issues as he had previously when he became upset or frustrated. I was hoping for a "Ransom of Red Chief" ending, where the kidnaper paid the kid's parents to take him back. The real tragedy is the bus driver, who went above and beynd to try to protects the kid (and were there others on the bus too?)

That white Rocky Mt. chipmunk was a different species than the Eastern Chipmunk which most bloggers hear know. I can't tell you which sp.; there are scads out West.
About the VW commercial. The first live Jamaican accent I heard was in the cab at 2 a.m 9 Sept. '58 as I headed from the airport to Mom's apt. in Manhattan. She'd left a phone msg. during the 8 Sept. faculty mtg., on the first or one of the first days of work at my new job at the college. Dad had died, somewhat earlier than expected, and I'd gotten the last plane out to go to the funeral, the first I was closely involved in. The driver was a talkative Jamaican man, and it was lovely. The best known Jamaican accent in America is probably Harry Belafonte.
The guy in the Volkswagon Jamacian Super Bowl commercial is a pretty poor substitute, but the ad isn't racist to me. It highlights the stereotypical positive outlook of Jamaicans, which we could perhaps use more of. I should take offense every time I see a fake scientist in a lab coat?

Dumb: "here", not "hear". Charlotte: When you were at Cornell, did you pick up a tee or sweat shirt that said "Ithaca is Gorges"? I've seen them advertised.

Travel day today. Did you miss me?
Yes, nickchick, the Budweiser/Clydesdale foal ad was touching. I liked it very much, too. Of course, I also liked the "sweating on the inside" one with the tag line "I'd fold your panties for you any day."
Yes, Jerry, it had to be very, very bad for that child, all of it. And yes, Mary, the bus driver is a true hero.
Mark in Boston on 04 Feb 2013 at 6:21 pm #
If every child on the bus had had a gun, this tragedy would never have happened.

eMb, That pun made me smile. Yes, I have seen and heard of these Tee-shirts, but haven't bought one. Our children have kept us so well supplied with tee shirts for lo these many years, there are an awful lot of them here. "What can we give Mom, or Dad, for Christmas or birthday? There's nothing they need or want. Oh wait, there's a clever tee shirt; perfect."
Birds, flowers for me; for him, SuperBowl XX and XXI, etc. Red Sox, Patriots. Colleges, numerous.

Oh, lost track of what I was going to say … I have a really nice sweatshirt from Cornell, large picture of tree with leafless branches, to show the structure, really … a Maple, or Beech, and a tiny figure of a person under the tree, to show the scale. Then it says "Cornell Plantations". A gift from the Ithaca dwellers.

Stumbled upon this on the internet today, pretty interesting if you're into English royalty:
"Investigating Richard III, Tony Robinson was shown evidence to suggest that the royal line was tainted by the illegitimacy of Edward IV. So who should be sitting on the throne today? Tony tries to find out in a detective story that takes him from the Tower of London via Debrett's Peerage to ruined castles and family tombs in Scotland and Ashby de la Zouch"

Country boy -
When one is shooting skeet, doesn't one aim upwards, not level? Husband did when he shot skeet.
Meryl A on 05 Feb 2013 at 1:17 am #
Mary in Ohio -
It has been pointed out that the descendants of Henry Tudor (Henry VII) who defeated Richard III are who were on the throne when the history of the period were written (such as Henry's granddaughter Elizabeth I). Would you say anything nice about the other side of the war of the roses? The Henrys (Lancasters) are glorious, the Edwards and Richard III (the Yorks) horrible.
The line has another problem with the "Glorious Revolution" and the seating of King William III and Mary II. There are multitudes of descendants of James II who have a better claim to the throne than Elizabeth II.
There is also a question of the legitimacy of Edward III.
England has had 2 major problems in history – too many sons and not enough. The change to allow daughters to be monarch over a younger brother should fix the latter, but add to the former.

I saw an ad in Rolling Stone Mag years ago that said Queen Mary smoked marijuana for menstrual cramps…just thought I'd throw that in there for today They had a portrait of her…rather portly I remember…..

Thanks for that medical update, Debbe, even though it borders on TMI.
I'm guessing that in those states and locales where cannabis is legal as a treatment for recognized medical conditions, there are probably people on the street who will sell you glaucoma or menstrual cramps.
Dave in MA on 05 Feb 2013 at 1:36 pm #
Maybe that's why POTUS was shooting skeet straight ahead. He was on marijuana for his MENStrual cramps.
Meryl A on 12 Feb 2013 at 12:59 am #
Which Queen Mary? I or II or the current Queen Elizabeth's grandmother?
Lost in A**2 on 12 Feb 2013 at 2:04 am #
So I've learned three things since reading Meryl's response: that cannabis is not native to the New World, that hashish is derived from cannabis, and that England has had lots of Marys.

United States has launched its first air strike by unmanned drone planes in
Libya on April 23.
Pentagon confirmed the strike, but did not give details of the target.
Libya's Deputy Foreign Minister, Khaled Kaim, said the U.S. decision to deploy
unmanned Predator drones to carry out ground strikes would be a crime against
humanity. RTE News
strike occurred today in the early afternoon local time, the Pentagon said in an
e-mailed statement today, without providing further details. U.S. President
Barack Obama last week approved the use of Predator drones. Bloomberg
Saturday's strike, two US Predators were already being used above Libya for
intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions. BBC On
Thursday, Defense Secretary Robert Gates said President Barack Obama had
approved air strikes in support of the NATO-led mission because that was where
the U.S. had "some unique capabilities". BBC The
Pentagon spokesman said in an earlier statement that it is "standard procedure
not to discuss specifics about UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) missions in any
theater of operation." AFP
North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is leading a UN-sanctioned mission to
police a no-fly zone, protect civilians and enforce an arms embargo against
Qaddafi's government. Bloomberg The
cost of the air war in Libya for the U.S. military has reached $608 million, a
U.S. defense official said April 11. defensenews.com The
Pentagon has estimated the air campaign will cost the United States about $40
million a month, even after NATO allies took the lead in the U.N.-mandated
operation designed to protect civilians against Muammar Qaddafi's forces. The
stated mission of the U.S. has been to protect Libyan civilians from Qaddafi's
military forces but not to attack Qaddafi directly. Obama has said the goal is
to give Libyan fighters the opportunity to gain enough strength to oust Qaddafi
themselves. Still, Obama and other American officials have called for Qaddafi to
step down from power. The Hill The
United States has continued bombing Libya since announcing that as of April 4 it
would assume just a "supporting role" in the Libya War. Antiwar

This looks really cool, and a better alternative to HFCS-laden tomato ketchups on the market these days! It's a bit labor intensive though. From my Pacific Islands e-cookbook. I think Splenda or Sun Crystals would work in place of the sugar and that cutting it should be fine if you're watching sugar intake-- but I'm posting it as written.

Pixi.js – First Impressions
A few days ago a coworker sent me a link to a very new html5 2D graphics library called Pixi.js, telling me to "Check this out." I did check it out and was immediately very pleased with what I saw.
Pixi.js arrived at the perfect time for me. I had been planning to start working again on the html5 rewrite of an unfinished flash game. I had already made my own Canvas2D engine, but was considering switching to EaselJS, to conform with my general philosophy that it is better to get on with making a game than to build an engine. When I saw Pixi.js I instantly knew that I wanted to use it for my project.
The thing that makes Pixi.js so appealing to me is that is is primarily a WebGL renderer, so it prioritises the optimal performance environment in the browser, but it has a fallback to the standard 2D canvas context, so it will work is all modern browsers. The great thing about this is that the most common case where it will fall back to the 2D context, at least on desktop, is Internet Explorer, which has a decent hardware accelerated 2D canvas element.
Pixi has only just been released to the public, but it has hit the scene in a very tidy shape. GoodBoy has obviously planned this initial release well. They have ensured that the documentation is well presented, and have built an attractive and impressive demo game that shows of what the engine can do.
The demo game is instant proof that PixiJS can offer the power needed to make a great game in the browser using WebGL. There are also some benchmarks that get more and more exciting the more bunnies or pirates you add to the scene.
The documentation gives a very concise overview of how simple and usable Pixi.js is. Unlike projects like EaselJS, it offers only the features you really need. You can see at a glance what it does. It doesn't try to be the new Flash, it just gives you what you need, in an API that will be familiar to any Flash developer. It has the standard objects: Stage, DisplayObject, Sprite, MovieClip, Texture etc. It has a full heirarchical display list, and supports JSON SpriteAtlas loading for animations. In other words, it has exactly what you want, and nothing more. No doubt it will in time have many more features, both from Good Boy Digital and from the community, but for now it seems good to go for a serious project.
Ive really been enjoying using Pixi.js, and getting on with making my game. Thanks, Good Boy Digital!

We offer two ways to locate information:
We have added the following products to your shopping cart from a previous visit:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
Kathryn Hall, our signature Cabernet Sauvignon, showcases the choicest fruit from our finest estate vineyards blocks and extraordinary mountain fruit from our select vineyard partners. A beautiful combination of varietals and terroir has transcended into a symphonic cuvee.
An extraordinary bouquet of briar fruit, toasty oak, and baking spice lure you to a palate of dense, powerful fruit and massive structure. The wine is distinctively smooth. Fine-grained tannins crescendo through the mid-palate and settle nicely into a long, memorable finish of berry pie flavors and a voluptuous coating mouthfeel. Approachable in its youth, this wine will continue to evolve with 10 - 15 years of cellaring.
"The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon (primarily estate fruit) reveals a deep ruby/purple color as well as sweet, tarry, black currant, and chocolate notes with hints of wood smoke and spice box... It should drink beautifully for 15 or more years." 92 Points The Wine Advocate
"Firmly tannic and dry, this Cabernet, which was blended with a little Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot, is one for the cellar. The tannins are tough and astringent, but when they melt away over the next decade or so, they'll leave behind sweet currants, cedar and violets." 92 Points Wine Enthusiast
"Intense garnet hue with a fuchsia rim. Blueberry, new oak and vanilla aromas. Elegant cherry fruit followed by fine-grain tannins and oak notes. Lengthy, ripe finish showing an accessible, soft side in its youth." 91 Points The Wine News
Hall Wines is located in Napa Valley and employs organic small-vine viticulture, precision winemaking, wild-yeast fermentation and micro-block blending to fully extract the purity and quintessence of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Their estate vineyards encompass more than 300 acres of classic Bordeaux varietals: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc. The Halls have a...Read More About Hall
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right. The Napa wine industry really took off in the 1980's, when vineyard...Read More About Napa Valley
(cab-uhr-NAY sow-veeh-yawn) King of Red Many refer to Cabernet Sauvignon as the king of red grapes. Perhaps that title is due to its ability to grow worldwide in a number of climates, or to the fact that it produces wine with such character yet such diversity. Either way, this grape is responsible, as a whole or a partner, for some of the greatest wines in the world. In Bordeaux,...Read More About Cabernet Sauvignon

The conflict in Syria, a spike in Iraqi bloodshed, and political violence in Egypt accounted for the high number of journalists killed on the job in 2013. A CPJ special report by Elana Beiser
The conflict in Syria, a spike in Iraqi bloodshed, and political violence in Egypt accounted for the high number of journalists killed on the job in 2013. A CPJ special report by Elana Beiser
Bangkok, December 12, 2013--A radio reporter was shot dead in the Philippines on Wednesday, marking the third journalist to be killed in the past two weeks in the country. The Committee to Protect Journalists calls on authorities to uphold the rule of law and bring an end to the killing spree of journalists that is under way across the country.
Bangkok, December 10, 2013--Radio broadcaster Michael Diaz Milo was shot dead on Saturday, marking the second journalist to be killed in a week in the Philippines, according to news reports. The Committee to Protect Journalists calls on Philippine authorities to identify the perpetrators and swiftly bring them to justice.
New York, December 4, 2013--The Committee to Protect Journalists welcomes the release today of a reporter working for Al-Arabiya news channel who, along with two crewmembers, was abducted by Islamist militants 18 months ago.
For all the people who have been working on the problem of impunity for so long, the announcement on November 26 that the Third Committee of the United Nation's General Assembly had passed a resolution on the safety of journalists and the issue of impunity, setting November 2 as the "International Day to End Impunity for Crimes Against Journalists," was welcome news.
New York, December 2, 2013--Philippine authorities must identify the perpetrators behind the fatal shooting of radio journalist Joas Dignos on Friday, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today. Dignos was a local radio commentator, according to news reports.
In December 2012, the Committee to Protect Journalists and 27 partner organizations launched Speak Justice: Voices against Impunity as part of an international effort to seek justice for the hundreds of journalists who have been murdered around the world. Today, on International Day to End Impunity, we are taking a look back at what has happened over the last 12 months.
Bangkok, November 15, 2013--Four journalists were killed and six others reported missing in the typhoon that struck the central Philippines on November 8, according to news reports and local press groups.
The biggest storm this year in the Southwest Pacific, and one of the biggest storms on record anywhere, is expected to hit land in the central Philippines Friday morning.
Two murdered journalists for the Africa service of Radio France Internationale, Ghislaine Dupont, 51, and Claude Verlon, 58, might have had a chance. They were abducted on November 2 in Kidal in northern Mali, but the vehicle their captors were driving suddenly broke down, according to news reports.

Ha! Nope, that's your fault, your responsibility, not Google's. It's easy, blaming someone else for your failures, but no proper strategy. And don't think Bing won't catch up on you. You should adapt now as you should have adapted when you got the first penalty. Refusing to change anything when even an algorithm can tell that your site can't live up to the quality standards is a sure sign that you won't ever be able to revive it.
This thread, like many others, is all about 'getting even' with Google. Pointless. You've got to roll with/learn from the punches!
A little harsh, who creates the algorithm? Looking back to why I was 'punched' it could have been a prelude to the brand adaption that Google are running with now. Is it my fault that some brands are larger than mine? Is this worth a penality? This is not getting even with Google, it is to show there is a living to be made without Google. I have other sites I have created and want to be part of Google, but I now make sure part of my SEO is for Bing, and that does not mean that I am doing anything black or even grey.
If I commit a crime and caught for it, I am first charged and eventually brought to court. Some guilty people manage to get off with the charge but most are convicted. Every now and then you hear of a miscarriage of justice, that innocent people have been found guilty, but the good thing about justice is that you are able to put your defence to a court and the jury decide if you are guilty or not. At the moment these penalities are another form of internment, imprisonment without trial.

Courtyard by Marriott Beijing Northeast (Běijīng Rénjì wànyí jǐudiàn) Review
More an option for business travelers than casual tourists—meaning it's not too far from the airport and a number of work hubs—this hotel near Wangjing High Tech Park thankfully understands that a functional location needn't engender an altogether utilitarian aesthetic: a 24-hour fitness center; modern, well-equipped guest rooms; plus a handy café and decent breakfasts may not trouble the heights of five-star living, but they're unlikely to disappoint.

Kristen Stewart is not a girl that puts on a happy face often. However, she's a teenager and being angsty comes with the territory. And, after all, she is famous for being in love with a vampire in the Twilight franchise, so a melancholy demeanor is clearly working for her. However, is this just a phase? What makes Kristen happy?
With Pisces ruling her Venus and Libra ruling her Moon, Kristen's tastes and pleasures tend to be ethereal. She isn't someone prone to be chirpy. More introverted than her Sun sign Aries would reveal, Kristen doesn't believe in wearing her heart on her sleeve. So, while her image is deceiving, it's part of her defense. She is actually a private individual, as shown by her Venus in her solar Twelfth House and her Moon in her solar Eighth House -- both areas that signify a loner. So, what will actually thrill her? People believing her tough act and giving her the space she craves.
