Canadian Online Travel Overview Third Edition: 2012-2016
Canadians are passionate about travel. More than three in four Canadian travelers say travel is important to their lifestyles, significantly greater than their U.S. counterparts. Canada's travel market is often – and almost always unfairly – pegged to its neighbor to the south, under the assumption that a shared border and language would result in similar market dynamics. But nothing could be further from the truth. With a landscape far more vast, but a population little more than a tenth of the U.S., Canada's travel market is home to some distinct characteristics

U.S. Online Travel Overview Fourteenth Edition
The 2008-2009 global financial crisis contributed to a conservative approach to spending for many Americans that has taken its toll on travel. However, those days are slipping further into the travel industry's rear view, and leisure travel incidence, frequency and spend all increased in 2013. At the same time, the battle for customers has intensified between travel suppliers and intermediaries, particularly as mobile gains strength as an important distribution channel. U.S. Online Travel Overview Fourteenth Edition provides sizing and analysis of the U.S. total and online travel markets by sector, segment and channel. The report highlights the key issues and trends driving the market, and features a comprehensive view of the U.S. travel landscape from 2012-2016.

How the Deep Web, Big Data, Semantic Relationships and Personalized Content Change Travel Marketing
Not long ago, selling travel was viewed as a somewhat generic, three-step process: shop, check (availability and pricing) and book. Today, powerful technologies are converging which enable marketers to leverage personalized content that is tailored to the unique needs of the individual traveler at all stages of the travel life cycle. This Spotlight examines the ways in which travel marketers can tap these technologies to drive brand loyalty and enhance customer lifetime value (CLV).

Asia Pacific Online Travel Overview Sixth Edition
After gliding unscathed through the global financial crisis, Asia Pacific has become the world's largest regional travel market. In like fashion, China eclipsed Japan in 2012 as the highest-grossing market in the region. Assuming a stable macroeconomic future, APAC will continue its healthy upward trajectory in the next several years – but sudden, unpredictable currency fluctuations hold the potential to change that fate, especially in rapidly growing markets like India and Indonesia.

Protest of Thousands in Cairo Turns Violent
Khaled Elfiqi/European Pressphoto Agency
Egyptian protesters dismantled a concrete wall which was in front of the
Israeli embassy in Cairo.
By DAVID D. KIRKPATRICK and HEBA AFIFY
Published: September 9, 2011
CAIRO a** A demonstration that brought tens of thousands to this citya**s
central Tahrir Square to reiterate the demands of the Egyptian revolution
turned violent on Friday, when thousands of people tore down a protective
wall around the Israeli Embassy, while others defaced the headquarters of
the Egyptian Interior Ministry.
Late in the evening, the Ministry of Health said that about 200 people had
been injured in clashes with the police at the Israeli Embassy and that 31
were injured near the Interior Ministry. Protesters apparently had scaled
the walls of the Israeli Embassy to tear down its flag.
Mustafa el Sayed, 28, said he had been among about 20 protesters who broke
into the embassy. He showed a reporter video from a cellphone, of
protesters rummaging through papers and ransacking an office, and he said
they had briefly beaten up an Israeli employee they found inside, before
Egyptian soldiers stopped them. He said the soldiers removed the
protesters from the building, but let them go free.
By 11:30 p.m., about 50 trucks had arrived with Egyptian riot police
officers, who filled the surrounding streets with tear gas. Witnesses said
that protesters had set a kiosk on fire in front of a security building
near the embassy, and that the police had fired rubber bullets to disperse
the crowd from both buildings. In addition, a fire broke out in the
basement of the Interior Ministry, but it appeared to have been started
from the inside and not by the protesters surrounding the building. The
fire was in a room believed to store criminal records.
The scale of the protests and the damage inflicted represented a departure
from the previously peaceful character of the demonstrations staged
periodically in Tahrir Square since the revolution in January and
Organizers of Fridaya**s demonstrations had said they would call for a
list of familiar liberal goals, like retribution against former President
Hosni Mubarak and an end to military trials of civilians. But thousands of
people marched off from the square to express their anger over disparate
recent events, including a recent border skirmish with Israel and a brawl
between soccer fans and the police at a recent match.
Thousands of hardcore soccer fans a** known here as ultras a** were for
the first time a conspicuous, if not dominant, force in the protests. They
led the attacks on the Interior Ministry and the security building near
the Israeli Embassy. At the Interior Ministry, groups of political
activists were seen trying to form human barriers to protect the building,
urging protesters to retreat to the square and chanting, a**Peacefully,
The Israeli Embassy, which has been the site of several previous
demonstrations after Israeli armed forces accidentally killed three
Egyptian officers while chasing Palestinian militants near the border last
month, was an early target on Friday. In response to almost daily protests
since the border episode, the Egyptian authorities had built a concrete
wall surrounding the embassy, and by early afternoon thousands of
protesters, some equipped with hammers, were marching toward the building
to try to tear down the wall.
After using the hammers and broken poles to break through sections of the
wall, protesters began using ropes attached to cars to pull away sections.
By the end of the night, the wall was virtually demolished. Two protesters
then climbed up the building and took down the Israeli flag, which had
been replaced after a protester removed it three weeks ago.
Egyptian military and security police officers largely stood by without
interfering with the demolition, though they clustered at the entrance to
the embassy to keep protesters out. The security forces had pulled back
from Tahrir Square and other areas before the start of the day to avoid
clashes with the protesters, although the military had issued a stern
warning on its Facebook page against property destruction.
Israel Radio interrupted its programming to report on the attack at the
embassy, Reuters reported. Citing Foreign Ministry officials, the
broadcast said that the Israeli ambassador was safely at his residence and
that Israel was in contact with the Egyptian government and others about
the episode. But by early Saturday, Egyptian airport officials said that
the Israeli ambassador was waiting for a military plane to leave the
country, The Associated Press reported.
Egyptians outside the embassy seized on the wall as a symbol. a**We were
attacked inside our own land,a** said Ahmed Abdel Mohsen, 26, a government
employee. a**They cana**t lock us out in a wall in our own country.
Nothing will stand in the way of Egyptians again.a**
The soccer fans, who dominated the assault on the Interior Ministry,
turned out in response to a melee with the police after a match on Tuesday
that left more than 100 people injured and more than 20 fans arrested and
jailed. The ultras have become increasingly engaged in politics since the
revolution, in which they played a major role in defending Tahrir Square
from plainclothes Mubarak supporters.
Police officials told an Egyptian state-run newspaper, Al Ahram, that the
ultras had attacked police officers with bottles and debris at the match.
But after the match, riot police officers attacked the fans.
By Friday night, a few hundred protesters had managed to pull down 9 of
the 13 letters in the Arabic signs on the wall of the Interior Ministry.
And graffiti on the wall went far beyond the contentious soccer brawl to
attack the military council running the country in the name of the
revolution and its leader, Field Marshal Mohamed Hussein Tantawi.
a**Down with the traitorous council!a** some of the graffiti read. a**Down
with the Field Marshal.a**
The Muslim Brotherhood, the Islamic group that is Egypta**s best-organized
political force, had distanced itself from Fridaya**s demonstration.
The demonstration took place against the backdrop of Mr. Mubaraka**s
trial, and one large sign featured his photo, a noose and the words
a**verdict of the people.a**

Egyptian protesters break into Israeli embassy building

Protesters have broken into the building housing Israel's embassy in
Egypt's capital, Cairo, entering consular offices, officials said.
Police used tear gas and gunshots were heard nearby. The ambassador has
been taken to Cairo airport to be flown out of the country.
US President Barack Obama urged Egypt to protect the embassy after Israel
asked Washington for help.
The mission has seen protests amid a downturn in Egypt-Israel relations.
Late on Friday hundreds of protesters destroyed a wall around the embassy
building before a group of about 30 broke in and threw documents out of
Reuters news agency quoted an Israeli official in Jerusalem as saying that
the documents appeared to be "pamphlets and forms kept at the foyer".
Egypt's state media said some of the documents were marked confidential.
An Israeli official told the BBC the intruders had entered consular
offices, but not the main embassy.
After initially standing by, police moved against the protesters, firing
tear gas. Several vehicles were set alight.
Live TV pictures in the early hours of Saturday showed protesters throwing
petrol bombs at police vans which drove at a crowd of people to try to
scatter them.
Shots were heard in the area but it is not clear who fired them. There are
reports a police station near the embassy was raided by protesters.
Egyptian state media said about 200 people had been injured in the unrest.

said documents thrown by protesters appeared to be pamphlets from the
A statement from the office of Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak said he
had spoken with his US counterpart Leon Panetta and had "asked them to
protect the embassy from the demonstrators".
President Obama appealed to Egypt to honour its international obligations
and protect the embassy, the White House said in a statement.
Mr Obama had spoken to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and said
the US was taking steps to help resolve the situation without further
violence, the statement added.
Israeli ambassador Yitzhak Levanon, his family and other embassy officials
have been flown out of the country on board a military plane, Egyptian
state TV reported.
Reuters said Egyptian Prime Minister Essam Sharaf had summoned his cabinet
crisis team while the interior ministry put police forces on alert.
Peace treaty tested
There have been protests outside the embassy since the deaths on 18 August
of five Egyptian policemen, allegedly at the hands of Israeli forces.
Egyptian officials say the five were killed as Israeli forces chased
suspected militants across the border.
Gunmen had earlier that day attacked Israeli civilian buses near the Red
Sea resort of Eilat, killing eight people.
Hundreds of Egyptians protested outside the Israeli embassy in Cairo the
following night, burning the Israeli flag and demanding the expulsion of
the Israeli ambassador.
Cairo called the policemen's death "unacceptable". Israel did not admit
responsibility, but said the deaths were regretted. Israel's defence
minister said he had ordered a joint inquiry to be held with the Egyptian
Correspondents say the incident marked a sharp escalation in tensions
between Israel and Egypt. Their 30-year-old peace treaty was already being
tested after the long-time Egyptian leader, Hosni Mubarak, was forced from
office earlier this year.
Under Mr Mubarak, ties between the two nations had been stable after a
history of conflict.
But his removal has sparked fears among Israeli officials that a less
amenable government could take charge in Cairo.
Egyptians break into Israel Embassy in Cairo
AYA BATRAWY, Associated Press THE ASSOCIATED PRESS STATEMENT OF NEWS
Sep. 9, 2011 7:41 PM ET
Some hundreds of Egyptian activists demolish a concrete wall built around
a building housing the Israeli embassy in Cairo, Egypt, to protect it
against demonstrators, as they raise their national Friday, Sept. 9, 2011.
CAIRO (AP) a** A group of about 30 protesters broke into the Israeli
Embassy in Cairo Friday and dumped hundreds of documents out of the
windows after a day of demonstrations outside the building in which crowds
swinging sledge hammers and using their bare hands tore apart the
embassy's security wall.
Israel's ambassador, Yitzhak Levanon, his family and other embassy staff
were waiting at Cairo's airport for a military plane to evacuate them,
said airport officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they
were not authorized to speak to the media.
Hundreds of protesters converged on the embassy throughout the afternoon
and into the night, tearing down large sections of the graffiti-covered
security wall outside the 21-story building housing the embassy. Egyptian
security forces made no attempt for hours to intervene.
Just before midnight, a group of protesters reached a room on one of the
embassy's lower floors at the top of the building and began dumping
Hebrew-language documents from the windows, said an Egyptian security
official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized
to speak to the media.
In Jerusalem, an Israeli official confirmed the embassy had been broken
into, saying it appeared the group reached a waiting room on the lower
floor. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not permitted to
release the information.
No one answered the phone at the embassy late Friday.
Since the fall of Hosni Mubarak in February, calls have grown in Egypt for
ending the historic 1979 peace treaty with Israel, a pact that has never
had the support of ordinary Egyptians. Anger increased last month after
Israeli forces responding to a cross-border militant attack mistakenly
killed five Egyptian police officers near the border.
Several large protests have taken place outside the embassy in recent
months without serious incident. Friday's demonstration, however, quickly
escalated with crowds pummeling the security wall with sledge hammers and
tearing away large sections of the cement and metal barrier, which was
recently put up to better protect the site from protests.
For the second time in less than a month, protesters were able to get to
the top of the building and pull down the Israeli flag.
Crowds outside the building photographed documents that drifted to the
ground and posted some of them online.
Protesters clashed with police and set fire to a police truck outside the
embassy. Crowds also tried to attack a nearby police station but were
turned back by security forces firing tear gas and warning shots. State
radio reported that one person died of a heart attack and that 163 people
were injured.
Senior Israeli officials were holding discussions on the embassy breach.
Israeli Defense Minster Ehud Barak said in a statement that he also spoke
with his American counterpart, Leon Panetta, and appealed to him to do
what he could to protect the embassy.
Thousands elsewhere protested for the first time in a month against the
country's military rulers.
Seven months after the popular uprising that drove Mubarak from power,
Egyptians are still pressing for a list of changes, including more
transparent trials of former regime figures accused of corruption and a
clear timetable for parliamentary elections.
Egyptians have grown increasingly distrustful of the Supreme Council of
the Armed Forces, which took control of the country when Mubarak was
forced out on Feb. 11 after nearly three decades in power. The council,
headed by Mubarak's defense minister, Field Marshall Hussein Tantawi, has
voiced its support for the revolution and those who called for democracy
and justice.
But activists accuse it of remaining too close to Mubarak's regime and
practicing similarly repressive policies, including abusing detainees. The
trials of thousands of civilians in military courts has also angered
"In the beginning we were with the military because they claimed to be
protectors of the revolution, but month after month nothing has changed,"
said doctor Ghada Nimr, one of those who gathered in Tahrir Square.
One banner in Cairo read, "Egyptians, come out of your homes, Tantawi is
Demonstrators in Cairo also converged on the state TV building, a central
courthouse and the Interior Ministry, a hated symbol of abuses by police
and security forces under Mubarak. Protesters covered one of the
ministry's gates with graffiti and tore off parts of the large ministry
Protests also took place in Alexandria, Suez and several other cities.
About 850 people were killed in the early days of the Jan. 25-Feb. 11
uprising. Tantawi is scheduled to testify in Mubarak's trial in closed
sessions that begin Sunday. The 83-year-old Mubarak is on trial on charges
of complicity in the deaths of protesters, a charge that could bring the
death penalty.
The judge in the trial banned TV cameras from the courtroom during this
week's sessions, and starting Sunday the proceedings will be closed to the
media and the public.
The lack of transparency in trials of members of Mubarak's inner circle
has angered many in Egypt.
"These are all practices of the old regime: repression and restriction on
freedoms," said Cairo protester Khaled Abdel-Hamid.

Hi all,
In all my time playing FC, I'd not once used FCML. I decided to insert an UP wheel into my design and noticed that when it sticks out of the build area, it can be moved around outside (just like a goal piece would in the same situation) I thought it would be an interesting concept to design a level where the purpose was to place this UP outside of the build area in order to solve the level. Plugging a gap immediately sprang to mind so I made this level:
I'd also be interested in seeing what other people can come up with using this idea having the player place UP wheels outside of the build to help solve.

The year of Speedy Gonzales | In 2006 Texas final, Brownsville's Cowboys produced outsider's art
The Porter High School Cowboys' soccer season ended prematurely this year, in a regional quarterfinal playoff to Brownsville rivals Rivera.
By defeating Coppell in the 2006 final, the school, however, will always lay claim to having become the first team from the Rio Grande Valley, in any sport, to have won a state championship competing among Texas' largest high schools (class 5A). They also validated, in the face of prejudice, their existence as straddlers of culture and language.
