CANNES, France, Nov. 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The booming Russian retail market, coupled with digital developments and the continued demand for prime, centre city retail locations, were the talking points of MAPIC 2012, where representatives from some 70 countries gathered for three days of high-octane business discussions.
Under clear Cote d'Azur skies, 8,500 delegates (+6,2%), including 2,400 retail representatives and 850 investors, met in Cannes, with no fewer than 400 retail brands, including the likes of Calvin Klein Jeans, Costa, Tiffany & Co and Dairy Queen, making their first appearance at MAPIC. The biggest attendance surge came from the United States. The US delegation of 113 companies represented a 39% increase on 2011.
"We have seen a significant jump in American participation this year, driven by interest from retail brands and investment companies," confirmed MAPIC Director Nathalie Depetro. Major US names on the exhibition floor included Howard Hughes, Vornado Realty Trust and Thor Equities, which recently opened a Paris-based office to expand its European business and to encourage European retailers to enter the US market.
As MAPIC progressed, real estate financial and professional services companies CBRE, Cushman & Wakefield, Jones Lang LaSalle, BNP Paribas Real Estate and Savills rolled out their latest retail real estate reports. They concluded that strong demand from luxury and fashion brands and a shortage of available premium space in prime centre city locations has seen rents rising in key cities including New York, Hong Kong, London, Paris, Moscow, Milan and Madrid.
One of the territories drawing most attention throughout the week was Russia, the 2012 MAPIC Country of Honour and Europe's leader in terms of projected retail real estate investment. Russian participation rose 28%, with 294 companies in Cannes.
According to the country's State Statistics Service, retail sales in Russia rose 4.4% in September compared to 12 months ago and overall retail sales for the first half of 2012 increased by 7.3%. "With disposable incomes growing and a growing middle class, Russia is predicted to become Europe's leading retail market," commented Robert Bronwell, CEO EMEA Retail at Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL).
In his packed keynote address, Cushman & Wakefield's Head of Retail in Russia, Maxim Karbasnikoff, said one current trend among retailers is to target second tier cities. "In some small cities there is almost nothing. We'll see a shift in cities like this in the next three to five years." He added that there is a significant growth in outlet stores, a previously under-used format in Russia where some 100,000 sq m of outlet development is due to be completed by the end of 2013. Cushman & Wakefield data, released during MAPIC, reported retail property investment in Russia hit a record €4 billion for the first nine months of 2012.
Among the major retail names with expansion plans in the Russian market are Auchan, which is opening its first Auchan Drive outlet in Moscow next year, Spanish fashion chain Inditext, which has plans for 50-60 new stores, DIY retailer Leroy Merlin and fast food specialist Burger King.
Russian powerhouse real estate developer Tashir, whose President Samvel S. Karapetyan was the MAPIC 2012 Personality of the Year, brought nine new projects to MAPIC, four of which are in Moscow. Speaking in Cannes, Tashir's Vice President, Artak Evoyan, said the company plans to increase its retail real estate business in the Russian capital from 50% to 70% of Tashir's total portfolio, with one million sq m currently in development.
Not surprisingly, one of the hottest subjects for conversation in Cannes was how retailers manage the marriage of physical stores and online retailing. For the first time, MAPIC hosted the inaugural Digital Summit where Pamela Wolf, Partner of Digital Business at consultancy Invalio, urged retailers to move fast to embrace the digital landscape. Clem Constantine, Property Director at Marks & Spencer, which has been praised for its online stores, said that one challenge facing landlords is identifying where revenues are generated, as clients habits vary between shopping online and collecting goods in shops or checking out goods in retail stores before completing purchases via the web.
In a standing-room-only MAPIC keynote address, Robert Tercek, Founder of General Consulting Creativity, asked his audience, "Your customer has evolved. Have you?" He noted that retailers are adopting three strategies towards digital shopping – pretending it's not happening, making empty gestures by setting up un-empowered digital teams, or embracing change. He warned retailers not to try to go head-to-head with digital on price, product and data, but to capitalise on the unique in-store experience of human contact, advice, and bespoke services.
In particular, Robert Tercek urged retailers to put the mobile phone at the heart of their digital strategy. "50% of customers in your store are using mobile phones and 50% of them are shopping on that phone." He said brands needed to significantly up their game in the social media field, where he cited Red Bull, Burberry and Zara as good examples of brands successfully interacting with clients and using social media as valuable marketing tools.
Throughout MAPIC, the major real estate financial and professional service companies released a series of market reports covering aspects of the industry.
In its survey of 100 leading retailers, 'How Active are Retailers in EMEA,' CBRE noted a continued appetite for expansion, with 75% of companies planning to open five or more stores and 20% aiming to open 30 stores or more, with Germany, Austria, the Netherlands and the UK as favoured targets. Peter Gold, Head of Cross-Border Retail EMEA at CBRE, commented that online shopping drives traffic to stores. He said the news is that multi-channel will lead to greater investment in new and existing stores.
JLL's Destination Europe 2013 report noted that Paris now commands the highest retail rentals in Europe, followed by Zurich and London. Paris' Champs Elysees this year set a new record for the French capital with prices hitting €18,000 per sq m according to BNP Paribas Real Estate. BNP Paribas said that expansion of fashion retail brands and a shortage of prime supply is pushing rents up in Germany, France and central London.

By Carmen Gonzalez Even as cloud and managed services grow increasingly central to business strategy and performance, challenges remain. The biggest sticking point for companies seeking to capitalize on the cloud is data security. Keeping data safe is an issue in any computing environment, and it has been a focus since the earliest days of the cloud revolution. Understandably so: a lot can go wrong when you allow valuable information to live outside the firewall. Recent revelations about government snooping, along with a steady stream of well-publicized data breaches, only add to the uncertainty Mar. 6, 2015 11:15 AM EST Reads: 958 |

By Carmen Gonzalez In the consumer IoT, everything is new, and the IT world of bits and bytes holds sway. But industrial and commercial realms encompass operational technology (OT) that has been around for 25 or 50 years.

By Carmen Gonzalez The Internet of Things (IoT) is causing data centers to become radically decentralized and atomized within a new paradigm known as "fog computing." To support IoT applications, such as connected cars and smart grids, data centers' core functions will be decentralized out to the network's edges and endpoints (aka "fogs"). As this trend takes hold, Big Data analytics platforms will focus on high-volume log analysis (aka "logs") and rely heavily on cognitive-computing algorithms (aka "cogs") to make sense of it all.

Paychex, Inc. Reports Second Quarter Results
Paychex, Inc. ("Paychex," "we," "our," or "us") (NASDAQ:PAYX) today announced total service revenue of $600.5 million for the three months ended November 30, 2013 (the "second quarter"), an increase of 7% from $559.4 million for the same period last year. Net income increased 7% to $158.7 million and diluted earnings per share increased 5% to $0.43 per share.
Martin Mucci, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are pleased with our progress in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The rate of growth in our Payroll service revenue accelerated to 5% and Human Resource Services revenue growth continued to advance at a double-digit rate. Sales execution remained strong, particularly in core payroll and in Human Resource Services. We continue to deliver client satisfaction and client retention at record levels."
Mr. Mucci added, "We have broadened our software-as-a-service offerings and recently launched Paychex Accounting Online, a cloud accounting solution. It was created and delivered through a strategic partnership and investment in Kashoo, a leading cloud accounting provider. This software-as-a-service solution complements our industry-leading payroll and HR solutions by expanding our suite of services for new businesses and entrepreneurs."
Payroll service revenue was $395.7 million for the second quarter, an increase of 5% compared to the same period last year. This increase was driven by growth in checks per payroll and revenue per check. Checks per payroll increased again this quarter, in line with the growth experienced in the three months ended August 31, 2013 (the "first quarter"). Revenue per check growth was the result of price increases net of discounts, together with the impact of increased product penetration. The absence of the disruptive effects of Hurricane Sandy that occurred in the same period last year also benefited our rate of growth.
Human Resource Services ("HRS") revenue was $204.8 million for the second quarter, an increase of 12% compared to the same period last year. Revenue from both our administrative services organization and professional employer organization ("PEO") grew at double-digit rates. The growth in HRS revenue was driven primarily by client base growth, particularly in retirement services, Paychex HR Solutions, and eServices products. Retirement services revenue also benefited from an increase in the average asset value of participants' funds. Insurance services revenue reflected higher premiums in workers' compensation insurance services and an increase in the number of health and benefits applicants. Our eServices products contributed to growth through sales success for software-as-a-service products. HRS revenue growth was tempered modestly by higher direct costs within our PEO.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Question & Answers
How to get green monster sled star
I bought the green monster sled and I haven't got the star because it hasn't listed what I must do to attain it. ?
Answer from: TheGreatAnt
Perhaps there are some other quests that are in the way. And the quest for the Green Monster needs to come to the front. To achieve this, equip things that you have completed all the quests for (or don't have any quests) so that the quest for the Green Monster will show in the 3 Achievement section.

Oh Canada: Canadian Minister Brings Common Sense to CVE Summit
CSP, by Kyle Shideler, Feb. 19, 2015:
Even in Washington D.C., there's sometimes at least one person willing to attend an international summit and speak plainly. In the case of the Countering Violent Extremism Summit promoted by President Barack Obama, the common sense came express-delivered from our allies to the North. In his public announcement, Minister for Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness The Honorable Steven Blaney said:
The international jihadist movement has declared war on Canada and its allies. Individuals returning home after travelling abroad to take part in terrorist activities present a serious security threat to Canada with newly-acquired abilities to carry out domestic attacks, as well as to recruit and radicalize others. As we all have seen, Canadians are being targeted by jihadi terrorists simply because these terrorists hate our society and the values it represents. That is why our Government has put forward measures that protect Canadians against all forms of terrorism.
Unlike the President who is at pains to explain in convoluted terms how "we are not at war with Islam", and how ISIS and its fellow travelers are "perverting" their religion (something that IS leader and so-called Caliph AbuBakr Al-Baghdadi, a doctor in Islamic Studies, appears to disagrees with) labeling the threat as the International Jihadist Movement, as Min. Blaney did, speaks volumes. While some have portrayed this merely as a fight over semantics, the phrase "Global Jihadist Movement" is pregnant with vital information that is intentionally obscured by the phrase "violent extremism." Min. Blaney's simple identification of the threat tell us that:
1. The threat is global: Unlike President Obama, whose Authorization for the Use of Military Force (AUMF) against ISIS seeks to limit U.S. options to just Iraq and Syria, we must recognize the global element of the threat is vital. Jihadists from Somalia to France and from Mali to Norway are all looking to harm the U.S. and their allies wherever they can. Unless our response is equally global, it can not succeed.
2. The threat is jihad: Our enemies say they are called to wage jihad, a term which is defined by Islamic law. Reliance of the Traveller (a reputable book of Shafi'i Islamic law) establishes that, "Jihad means to war against non-Muslims and is etymologically derived from the word mujahada, signifying warfare to establish the religion." That many individuals who identify as Muslim may not subscribe to this doctrinal requirement is a positive, but nonetheless the preference of individuals does impede the significance of a doctrinal requirement that motivates a large segment of a population..
3. The threat is a movement. It is not merely ISIS which has declared war against us and must be combated. Rather our fight is with all those who subscribe to the movement's ideology which obliges them to wage war in order to "establish the religion." Individual groups and leaders may morph, change or evolve, but the ideological heart of the movement remains the same, and until that is addressed, we will not prove victorious. And as a movement, those responsible for spreading and indoctrinating the ideology are as important (if not more so) than the frontline jihadists who engage in fighting or acts of terror.
It is on this last point that the Canadians have once again shined, having recently launched a series of raids targeting the Muslim Association of Canada, a Muslim Brotherhood front organization, which had openly touted its support for the Brotherhood's ideology, as espoused by founder Hassan Al-Banna and leading jihadist ideologue Sayid Qutb. In addition to having funneled almost $300,000 to banned Canadian charity IRFAN, which contributed some $15 million to groups linked to Hamas in a 5 year period, MAC was principally in the business of ideology, running 20 Islamic schools and 15 mosques.
While Canada has initiated raids targeting groups linked to indoctrination and jihad, the Obama Administration and it's Countering Violent Extremism effort continues to conduct outreach with them. This was most notable in the case of the Islamic Society of Boston, a mosque founded by a convicted AL Qaeda financier and Muslim Brother, which has been linked to a dozen individuals with terror ties, ranging from the chief jurist of the Muslim Brotherhood Yusuf Al Qaradawi, to the Boston Marathon bombers, to a major Pakistani terror leader whose brother orchestrated the Mumbai massacre. And yet Boston was one of the cities cited as a model for the rest of the country by the CVE summit.
As Canada's government is considering the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2015, seeking to target those who conducted indoctrination, propaganda and support for terrorism, the President's outreach partners, like Salam Al-Marayati of the Muslims Public Affairs Council, are looking for ways to hamper policing efforts, such as preventing law enforcement from using informants and targeting terror recruiters in mosques.
Canada has successfully turned the corner in their approach to combating global jihad, and they have done so in part by having made the conscious decision to call things by their rightful name, exactly as called for in the Center for Security Policy's Secure Freedom Strategy: A Plan For Victory over the Global Jihad Movement.
It's time for the U.S. to do likewise.
Highly Decorated Ret. USMC Vet Pays Tribute To Fallen Canadian Soldier
Truth Revolt, by Trey Sanchez:
Retired U.S. Marine and Vietnam veteran Major "Fox" Sinke has been filling the vacancy at the Canadian National War memorial in honor of Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, the soldier who was slain at that very spot in October during a terrorist attack as he guarded the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
"That young corporal was a comrade in arms and that's how I see it," Maj. Sinke says in a video interview. "And so I'm paying tribute to him as best I can."
The highly-decorated Marine then gives a stern warning to any would-be terrorists planning another attack:
We are not intimidated. Take your best shot.
"There are those of us who understand what's happening, and by God, we're not going to lie down for it," he added. "Not gonna happen — that's basically why I'm here. I'm just here to make my own little personal damn statement."
Sinke explains that he holds dual citizenship in both America and Canada. He was born in Vancouver and his mother was from Colorado:
I'm a North American. That's how I see it.
He dedicates his tribute saying, "We're with you. We got your back."
The website Guardian of Valor, whose sole mission is to "out those who falsely claim Military service and/or claim unauthorized medals or tabs," checked into the validity of Maj. Sinke's story. What they found out was astonishing.
This Marine earned five Purple Hearts, amongst many others, during his military career. The website posted his record:
Guardian of Valor notes that Sinke has written several books about his experiences in the Vietnam War. They also mention that he has received several death threats because of his tribute. They quote Army Times:
Sinke said he received at least two phone calls on Tuesday from people who screamed at him in Arabic and then hung up.
'The only words I recognized were "kill you," because I've heard them before,' he said.
When Sinke told police about the phone calls, he added, 'I promise you this: If they come here, they'll die here.'

Emerson on Fox News America's Newsroom – Open Societies and Stopping Terrorism
Bill Hemmer: Police in Canada now say the gunman in the attack acted alone. Serious questions that remain about whether or not this was yet another instance of a so-called lone wolf attack. Steve Emerson, executive director of the Investigative Project on Terrorism, with me now. Steve, how are you? And good morning to you. You have some sources up on Ottawa. What are you picking up now that we have not yet learned?
Steve Emerson: Canada is no different than the United States. For the last few years, last decade or so, they have experienced at least a dozen major aborted plots to attack major targets [in Canada] including government facilities as well as [other] facilities in [Canada and] the United States. All of them have been stopped with the assistance of either Canadian intelligence or US intelligence. The sound bite you played by Walid Phares was right on, was spot on. The issue is if the government can get inside our minds then they could stop acts of terrorism. But the issue is the point of activization. You can be radical but not cross the line; you are believing in a radical theology. Once you cross that line into carrying out a criminal predicate, then it's illegal, then the government has the right to stop you. So taking away your passport isn't going to stop you from carrying out an act of violence.
Hemmer: Yeah you're precisely right about that. Just so our viewers know, this man's passport was confiscated. So too are the passports of 90 other suspected Islamic radicals that the Canadians are watching right now. You mentioned Walid Phares. To our viewers who did not hear that, here's what he said on the record last night.
Clip of Walid Phares: The pool of individuals who are like Rouleau and Bibeau, both in the United States and in Canada, is pretty big. How are we going to be able to determine which one is going to act is the real problem of counterintelligence services.
Hemmer: How we are able to determine which one will act is the real problem of counterintelligence. How do you address that Steve?
Emerson: That is the quintessential problem because when the government becomes too intrusive, when it starts listening to conversations, taking down your phone numbers, looking at the books that you read at the library, the public gets outraged, that's invading your privacy. Yet those are all indicators, potential indicators of whether you are potentially going to carry out an act of terrorism or whether you're interested in carrying out an act of terrorism. And yet the problem is that if you are not interested and yet the government does intrude on your privacy, everyone yells, well this is an invasion of your civil liberties. In a free society there's always going to be this tension here. After 9/11 there was no controversy at all about passing the Patriot Act. I think it passed 99-1. Today if you had a vote in the Congress about the Patriot Act, I'm not so sure it would pass. Maybe it would pass today, but maybe it wouldn't have passed last week.
Hemmer: It just has a way of rubbing off and the intensity we give the topic rubs off after time. We were speaking last hour with a great guest who was telling us that you need to raise the terror alert just to make sure the thing still work. They did this in Canada, I don't know if that is something you would support here. Is that even necessary in our country?
Emerson: Well you remember we went through the color alerts. The issue of the alerts is a psychological thing; the purpose is to raise the public awareness. But the reality is, Bill, that the public awareness is raised really only through one thing – through fear. And that fear is engendered ironically through the success of attacks like the ones that were carried out in Canada over the last three days. When the FBI is successful in stopping attacks, the public doesn't realize the magnitude of damage and death that could occur. So they're almost victims of their own success. That's the real irony in stopping attacks.
Hemmer: Steve, it is good to get your analysis here. Thanks for coming back with us today. Steve Emerson out of Washington, DC.

How Big Is the Canadian Terrorists' Network?
The mayhem caused by alleged Ottawa shooter Michael Zehaf-Bibeau occurred just two days after another man, Martin Rouleau-Couture, struck two Canadian soldiers with a car in Quebec—killing one and wounding another.
Full details on Zehaf-Bibeau are still emerging. But he appears to have been a 32-year-old native of Quebec with a history of legal troubles that predate his radicalization. Canadian journalist Domenic Fazioli reported that Zehaf-Bibeau had been arrested a total of five times for drug possession and parole violations.
Canadian reports paint the picture of a disturbed individual, who once told a friend the "devil is after him," and whose father appears to have fought on behalf of rebels in Libya in 2011.
Former Minister of Public Safety Stockwell Day, who once oversaw Canadian security agencies in cabinet as a member of the ruling Conservative government, said he had independent information that suggested the two suspects visited the same jihadist web forums.
"It is likely there is a digital trail that suggests they accessed some of the same Internet chat rooms and websites," he told The Daily Beast. "It appears the [Parliament Hill shooter] was using some of the same networks as the killer [from earlier this week], who killed an army officer… And it was interesting that ISIS apparently, or a source identifying themselves as ISIS, had a photo out of this guy in pretty short order."
Speaking to the nation Wednesday evening, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper was quick to link the shooting on Parliament Hill and the killing of a Canadian soldier earlier this week by "an ISIL-inspired terrorist," using an alternate acronym for ISIS.
"This week's events are a grim reminder that Canada is not immune to the types of terrorist attacks we have seen elsewhere around the world," Harper said, pledging to "fight against the terrorist organizations who brutalize those in other countries with the hope of bringing their savagery to our shores."
Last week, Canadian Security Intelligence Service director Michel Coulombe estimated that 130 people had traveled abroad to join in alleged terrorist activities. Eighty people had "returned to Canada after travel abroad for a variety of suspected terrorism-related purposes."

Canadian Soldier Shot in Attack at Parliament Hill in Ottawa
CreditAdrian Wyld/The Canadian Press, via Associated Press
OTTAWA — At least two gunmen traumatized the heart of the Canadian government on Wednesday, with one shooting a soldier guarding the National War Memorial and then entering the adjacent Parliament building, where multiple rounds were fired. Shooting also was reported at a nearby shopping mall.
Police officers rushed to secure the Parliament building and move occupants to safety as they hunted for what Canadian news reports said were possibly two or three assailants, in what had the appearance of a coordinated attack.
The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation reported that one assailant was killed. The condition of the soldier who was shot was not immediately clear.
The shootings began about 10 a.m., just as the leaders of Parliament were holding their weekly meetings, suggesting the possibility of deliberate timing. Many of the lawmakers were rushed into secure rooms in the basement by guards.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper had been inside Parliament at the time of the shooting but was evacuated safely, Canadian news reports said. The entire area, known as Parliament Hill, was placed on lockdown as police reinforcements arrived.

There was no American or Canadian foreign policy to blame when Islam swept across the Arabian Peninsula, North Africa, up into Spain. Our foreign policy cannot be blamed for ISIS killing Shias. This is not about us and our policies; it's about a warped feeble world view that seeks to spread like a cancer."

Michael Coren & Robert Spencer on Martin "Ahmad" Roleau, Lee Rigby-style terrorist in Canada
Published on Oct 21, 2014 by AlohaSnackbar01
Martin (Ahmad) Couture-Rouleau's passport was seized by authorities who feared he wanted to go overseas to take part in terrorism, blocking him from leaving Canada and highlighting a dilemma facing security officials dealing with the threat of militants on home soil.
Couture-Rouleau was identified as a high-risk traveller and had his passport taken away.
He was arrested at the airport while on his way to Turkey, RCMP Supt. Martine Fontaine said at a news conference in Montreal, but there wasn't enough evidence for police to charge him and detain him.
Couture-Rouleau, 25, was fatally shot after hitting two soldiers in a parking lot of a commercial plaza in St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, a city about 40 kilometres southeast of Montreal.
One of the soldiers, Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, 53, died of his injuries Monday evening. Police said the other soldier doesn't have life-threatening injuries.
Officials who stop citizens from leaving Canada because of terrorism fears then face another problem: those persons remain in Canada, perhaps with the intention of causing harm to others.
RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson touched on it Tuesday on Parliament Hill: asked whether it was possible Couture-Rouleau became more dangerous after his passport was taken away, Paulson said "certainly that's what follows from the analysis."
"He was part of our investigative efforts to try and identify those people who might commit a criminal act of travelling abroad for terrorist purposes. So in that respect we were working him along with other suspects," he added.
A top official at the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, speaking at a Senate committee meeting Monday, put the dilemma more bluntly.
"For every individual that we prevent, every extremist that we prevent from going overseas to engage in extremist activity, is one more individual that we have to investigate closely because they're radicalized to the point that they want to leave," said Jeff Yaworski, CSIS deputy director of operations.
"There's nothing more that we can do with the budget that we have, except to prioritize internally as effectively as we can and I think we are doing that."
Yaworski said the agency's success rate "has been quite good."
"I'd be foolhardy to say that we have all the bases covered. We do what we can with the budget that we have, sir," Yaworski told senators.
The federal government has raised its internal threat level to medium due to an increase in "general chatter" from organizations like ISIS, but not because of a specific threat.
Couture-Rouleau was one of 90 people being monitored by the RCMP as part of 63 current national security investigations, the RCMP confirmed to CBC News Monday night. Paulson first reported the investigations to MPs on the House public safety committee earlier this month.
That covered "both people who intend to go [abroad] or people who have returned and have been referred to us by the service," Paulson said on Oct. 8.
It included people suspected of being involved with extremism-related activities, including financing, not specifically to fighting alongside militants.
Legal documents show Couture-Rouleau converted to Islam in 2013. He went by Ahmad Rouleau on some social media sites.
Immigration Minister Chris Alexander, who has said his department is revoking the passports of those suspected of planning to travel abroad to commit terrorism, wouldn't answer questions as he left a cabinet meeting.
On Tuesday, Paulson said the RCMP are investigating along with Quebec provincial police to determine the "breadth" of this incident and pursue every avenue.
Paulson said the RCMP don't think Couture-Rouleau was connected to other sympathizers.
"We don't suspect that, but we're open to that and we're concerned about that. So we're going to be pursuing every investigative avenue to satisfy ourselves that we've eliminated that possibility," he told reporters on his way out of the committee meeting.
A Quebec police spokesman said the RCMP are handling the investigation into the suspect and his motivations.
On Monday, the RCMP said the integrated national security investigations team in Montreal, along with other authorities, worried Couture-Rouleau "had become radicalized."
The Prime Minister's Office issued a statement Tuesday, reiterating that federal authorities had confirmed certain elements clearly indicated Couture-Rouleau had become radicalized. Canadians should remain vigilant, the statement read.
"This was a despicable act of violence that strikes against not just this soldier and his colleagues but frankly against our very values as a civilized democracy," Harper said in the House.
ISIS Attack in Canada: Inspired by Online Al Qaeda Magazine?
By Ryan Mauro:
A supporter of the Islamic State terrorist group in Canada was shot dead yesterday after hitting two soldiers in Quebec with a car, killing one. He was shot after he brandished a knife. The terrorist may have been inspired by an English-language Al-Qaeda magazine released in 2013.
The attacker, Martin Couture-Rouleau, went by the name of Ahmad Rouleau online. Associates say he became radicalized one year ago. His online postings show open support for the Islamic State and the caliphate.
Canadian officials say they were aware of his extremism before the attack. The authorities confiscated his passport months ago. Apparently, Rouleau preferred to go overseas but chose instead to carry out an attack inside Canada when that option became problematic.
Earlier this month, the Canadian government joined the U.S.-led coalition against the Islamic State. It offered 69 advisors for Iraqi forces and nine aircraft, consisting of six fighter jets, one refueling plane and two surveillance aircraft.
Canada did not agree to join operations in Syria and said its commitment is only for six months. About 64% of Canadians supported the decision to take part in airstrikes against the Islamic State.
In September, the Islamic State released an audiotape calling on supporters to kill Canadians after it agreed to send special forces to Iraq as advisors and to assist with humanitarian aid deliveries. Islamic State spokesperson Abu Muhammad al-Adnani said:
"If you can kill a disbelieving American or European – especially the spiteful and filthy French – or an Australian or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State … kill him in any manner or way however it may be."
The Canadian Security Intelligence Service's Deputy Director of Operations, Jeff Yaworski, says at least 50 Canadians have joined the Islamic State or other jihadist groups in the area. The Royal Mountain Canadian Police says it is aware of 90 people currently in Canada who desire to join the Islamic State overseas or have returned to the country after associating with terrorists.
Rouleau may have gotten the idea for this style of attack from the spring 2013 issue of Al-Qaeda's English-language Inspire magazine. It is titled, The Lone Mujahid Pocketbook and it has detailed suggestions for "individual jihad;" attacks that can be carried out by a single individual. It also has tips for avoiding detection, such as using encrypted communications.

BREAKING: Possible Terror Attack in Canada by Reported ISIS Sympathizer, Dead Suspect Is Martin 'Ahmad' Rouleau
PJ Media, By Patrick Poole, October 20, 2014:
NOTE: Updates below this post
According to multiple reports, Canadian authorities are investigating a hit-and-run and subsequent high-speed car chase this morning in St. Jean sur Richelieu in Quebec province as a possible terror attack. (HT: Stewart Bell)
CBC reports:
A man in his 30s was shot by police in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Que., earlier this afternoon after he hit two members of the Canadian Forces with his car and led police on a dramatic high-speed chase.
The soldiers were hit in a parking lot of a commercial plaza at around 11:30 a.m. ET. Both were injured, one critically.
The incident was raised in the House of Commons this afternoon by Conservative MP Randy Hoback, who questioned Prime Minister Stephen Harper about "unconfirmed reports of a possible terror attack" targeting members of the Canadian Forces.
Harper, reading from a piece of paper, would only say he was "aware of these reports" and that they are troubling.
Police have not named the soldiers but confirmed at an afternoon news conference that they were members of the armed forces.
Another report indicates that the suspect was inside the military office beforehand talking about ISIS and may be an ISIS sympathizer.
This incident comes weeks after ISIS called for Western supporters to attack and "slaughter soldiers" in their homes. The message made suggestions for such an attack:
"Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him."
"If you are unable to do so, then burn his home, car, or business. Or destroy his crops. If you are unable to do so, then spit in his face."
If this is a confirmed attack, it may be a copycat attack based off of the May 2013 killing of British Army drummer Lee Rigby on the streets of Woolwich.
UPDATE: Stewart Bell directs to this report that the suspect (who has died from his wounds) is Martin "Ahmad" Rouleau, who was known to Canadian counterterrorism authorities.
UPDATE2: Rouleau's Facebook page is filled with caliphate imagery.
UPDATE3: Here's a picture of Rouleau from his Ummaland (Muslim social networking site) page, where is user name was "Ahmad the Convert":
UPDATE4: Canadian Prime Minister's Office says that Rouleau "had become radicalized":
"The individual who struck the two CAF members with his car is known to federal authorities, including the Integrated National Security Enforcement Team," said the statement from Jason MacDonald, the prime minister's spokesman.
"Federal authorities have confirmed that there are clear indications that the individual had become radicalized. As Canada's national security agencies have said, Canadians should remain vigilant."

Canadian Police Reject Own Anti-Terror Handbook for Being 'Adversarial'
Manual instructs police against saying, 'jihad', 'Islamic extremism'
By Adam Kredo:
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) rejected and distanced itself from the force's own an anti-terrorism handbook just a day after it was released, citing the manual's "adversarial tone."
The "United Against Terrorism" handbook released last week by the RCMP and two Canadian Muslim groups seeks to combat the rise of radicalism in local Muslim communities and serve as an antidote to the slick extremist propaganda being produced by terror groups such as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS).
However, a day after its official release, the RCMP publicly distanced itself from the handbook and said it would not distribute it to officers.
While it remains unclear what exactly the RCMP objected to, questions have been raised about sections of the handbook that order the police not to use terms such as "Islamic extremism" and tell Muslim community members that they do not need to cooperate with the police.
Other sections of the handbook say that terrorists are not "jihadis" and that "jihad is a noble concept."
A day after the anti-terror handbook was released with much fanfare in Canada's Muslim community, the RCMP issued a statement rejecting the publication for its "adversarial tone," a loaded comment that the police force has declined to explain.
"After a final review of the handbook, the RCMP could not support the adversarial tone set by elements of the booklet and therefore directed RCMP Manitoba not to proceed with this initiative," the police force said in a statement posted on its website.
The RCMP is keeping mostly silent on the matter and directing questions to the two Muslim organizations behind the handbook, the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM), and the Islamic Social Services Association (ISSA).
"Any questions regarding the distribution, use or intention of the booklet should be directed to the authors, the National Council of Canadian Muslims, and the Islamic Social Services Association," the RCMP said in a statement that raised more questions than answers.
One potential issue is that the handbook recommends that "intelligence and law enforcement officials" should "avoid terms such as 'Islamist terrorism', 'Islamicism', and 'Islamic extremism' in favor of more accurate terms such as 'al Qaeda inspired extremist,'" according to one section of the handbook, which still bears RCMP's official logo.
Law enforcement officials also should "discontinue any inappropriate information gathering techniques including (but not limited to) showing up at workplaces, intimidating newcomers, questioning individuals religiosity, and discouraging legal representation," the anti-terror handbook states.
The term "jihad" also is not appropriate to use, according to the handbook, a copy of which was first published by Canada's CBC News.
"Do not refer to terrorists as 'jihadis,' the manual states. "This only emboldens them and gives them a legitimate status in the eyes of the vulnerable. Terrorism is not jihad. Jihad is a noble concept in Islam."

Muslim Group Brings Lawsuit Against Canadian PM for Saying It Is Connected to Hamas
Truth Revolt, By Daniel Mael:
National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM), formerly CAIR-Canada, has decided to bring a lawsuit against Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper. In January, Harper was dismissive of NCCM's request to have a rabbi removed from his Middle East delegation and denied NCCM's credibility, arguing they are "an organization with documented ties to a terrorist organization such as Hamas."
NCCM Executive Director Ihsaan Gardee rejected this allegation in a press release and announced the organization's intention to sue:
This false accusation against the NCCM is of the most serious kind imaginable and was made in an attempt to discredit the NCCM and undermine its ability to conduct its public work. In order to uphold its good name, the NCCM has no choice but to issue a Statement of Claim for defamation against Mr. MacDonald and the Prime Minister. […] On January 28th, the NCCM held a news conference on Parliament Hill announcing that it had initiated a libel notice against the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) for defamation. Unfortunately, the statement remains on the public record and no retraction was made.
The Canadian website Point De Bascule provided a chronological list of NCCM/CAIR-CAN's ties to Hamas since its founding in 1994:
June 1994 – The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) was established by three leaders of the Islamic Association of Palestine (IAP): Nihad Awad, Omar Ahmad and Rafeeq Jaber. The IAP was a front group for Hamas in the United States in the eighties and nineties. In a video archived by the Investigative Project on Terrorism, Nihad Awad expresses his support for Hamas at Barry University in 1994. In 2002, an American judge presiding the case Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development v. Ashcroft concluded that the « Islamic Association for Palestine (« IAP »), has acted in support of Hamas."
1996 – Creation of "an informal network in Canada to work with the Washington-based CAIR"
January 14, 1997 – CAIR-Montreal is added to the Quebec Registry of Enterprises
July 10, 2000 – Incorporation of CAIR-CAN with Industry Canada
December 29, 2000 – A CAIR-CAN press release issued in Washington provides the name of a US-based CAIR leader as contact to comment about a fire at a mosque in Canada. In this press release, CAIR-CAN is referred to as CAIR's « office in Canada. »
August 31, 2001 – A US-based CAIR leader's name is added as contact in a CAIR-CAN press release criticizing the Canada-based National Post. In this press release, CAIR-CAN is referred to as « the Canadian office of the Council on American-Islamic Relations. »
October 10, 2002 – Washington-based CAIR files a trade-mark application for an exclusive use of its acronym CAIR in Canada. In the Canadian government's database, the address of the applicant CAIR is the following:
453 New Jersey Avenue, South East
Washington, D.C. 20003
United States of America2003 – In a Journalist's Guide to Islam conceived by CAIR-CAN (p. 15), Washington-based CAIR is described as "CAIR-CAN's parent organization" (p. 14).
December 16, 2003 – CAIR-CAN Chair Sheema Khan swears in an affidavit supporting Washington-based CAIR in a legal trade-mark battle that it "has direct control" over CAIR-CAN's activities in Canada.
March 10, 2005 – A Canadian government agency confirms that, in Canada, the trade-mark on the acronym CAIR belongs to Washington-based CAIR.
August 14, 2007 – In a list of CAIR chapters, CAIR-CAN appears between CAIR-Ohio and CAIR-Central Pennsylvania.
Point De Bascule also pointed out that two CAIR-CAN leaders openly endorsed Hamas after Canada deemed it a terrorist organization in 2002:
Jamal Badawi and Wael Haddara are two important pillars of the Muslim Brotherhood infrastructure in Canada. Both were members of CAIR-CAN Board of directors for ten years or so. Badawi was still identified as a CAIR-CAN leader on the organization's website on May 28, 2013, while Haddara resigned his position on the Board on April 3, 2012. On March 3, 2004, both of them were simultaneously on CAIR-CAN's Board and on the Muslim Association of Canada's Board. That day, MAC issued a press release in which it openly endorsed Hamas. That was more than one year after the Canadian government, Liberal back then, had added Hamas to a list of terrorist organizations. The listing is available on Public Safety Canada's website.
Apart from being engaged in the destruction of Israel, in recent years Hamas leaders have frequently advocated the Islamic conquest of the West (2008 – 2011 – 2012). On July 16, 2013, Hamas even threatened to launch terrorist attacks in countries where Israel embassies are located. Canada is among the potential targets, of course.
In 2002-2003, while he was on CAIR-CAN's Board, Wael Haddara was also an administrator for IRFAN-Canada. In April 2011, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) revoked IRFAN-Canada's charity status after it concluded that, for the period 2005-2009 alone, it transferred $14.6 million to the terrorist organization Hamas (GMBDR – Toronto Star). ACRA audit of IRFAN-Canada for the fiscal year 2002 confirms that Wael Haddara was on IRFAN-Canada's Board of Directors at least from 1999 to 2003. (See pp. A-2 and A-3)
In 2002, while she was CAIR-CAN Chair, Sheema Khan endorsed Youssef Qaradawi by introducing him as a "renowned Muslim scholar" to her Globe and Mail readers. Youssef Qaradawi is the most important leader of the Muslim Brotherhood international network, its spiritual leader. He is also considered Hamas' spiritual guide. In the past, his fatwas have been quoted by Hamas to justify its suicide operations against civilians at the heart of Israel.
Sheema Khan is not an administrator of CAIR-CAN (that became NCCM) anymore. However, she took part in activities organized in Ottawa to celebrate the name change of the organization in July 2013.
The presence of the CAIR-CAN founder at the unveiling of the organization's new name indicates very well that, apart from the name, nothing has changed. NCCM actual Executive Director Ihsaan Gardee confirmed this in his July 6, 2013 press release when he stressed that, in spite of the name change, "We remain the same organization our constituents and partners have come to rely on."

Iran Lashes Out at Canadian Court Decision to Award $7 Million in Seized Assets to Terror Victims
By Joshua Levitt:
Iran lashed out at a decision by a Canadian court to award $7 million in seized Iranian assets to victims of Iran-backed terror groups Hamas and Hezbollah ,according to Canada'sNational Post on Monday.
"Given the approach of the Canadian government, it is crystal clear that the verdict is politically motivated and such rulings have no legal value," Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Marzieh Afkham said on Press TV, cited by the National Post.
Iran's Tasnim news agency claimed the ruling was based on "the fabricated allegation" that Iran supported terrorist groups, while semi-official state broadcaster FARS said Tehran had reminded "the Ottawa government of its international commitment" to protect diplomatic properties, the newspaper reported.
National Post said that following years of deteriorating relations, Canada severed diplomatic ties with Iran in 2012, expelling all of the Islamic Republic's diplomats. At the same time, the Canadian government designated Iran and Syria as state sponsors of terrorism, ending their state immunity from lawsuits.
The 2012 Justice for Victims of Terrorism Act permitted victims of terror to seek damages from the state sponsors of their attackers, while the government also amended the State Immunity Act to allow the lawsuits.
The Ontario Superior Court of Justice ruled last week that Iranian funds in Canadian bank accounts and two properties in Toronto and Ottawa should be seized and split among terror victims. The newspaper said the judgement came after Iran failed to defend itself in court and sheriffs were ordered to take the Iranian assets. The groundbreaking court decision finalized four lawsuits filed in Ontario, Nova Scotia and British Columbia by terror victims seeking damages from Iran for training, arming and financing Hamas, in Gaza, and Lebanon-based Hezbollah, the National Post said.
Only one of the plaintiffs is a Canadian, Vancouver dentist Sherri Wise, who was severely injured by a Hamas suicide bomber, it said. The others are American terror victims who came to Canada to collect on judgments awarded by U.S. courts.

Litigation Jihad: Hamas-CAIR Canada (NCCM) Sues Harper Government for Libel
By Pamela Geller:
Litigation jihad. The Hamas-tied group CAIR has filed a libel suit against the Harper government.
Before the Canadian Prime Minister's official visit to Israel earlier this month, the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM), the Canadian branch of the Hamas-tied Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), wrote to PM Steven Harper demanding that Rabbi Daniel Korobkin be removed from the PM's delegation to Israel because the Rabbi attended and spoke briefly at my September talk in Canada.
Their letter charged that both Robert Spencer, who also spoke at that September event, and I "have a lengthy and clear record of promoting anti-Muslim sentiments and demonization." Video of the event here and here.
In response, the great Prime Minister of Canada set the standard that leaders should follow, most notably Barack Hussein Obama, and ignore these sinister supremacist thugs. Jason MacDonald, Harper's director of communications, blistered the NCCM: "We will not take seriously criticism from an organization with documented ties to a terrorist organization such as Hamas."
Absurdly, CAIR-Canada filed a lawsuit today against the good Prime Minister's government. Sharia enforcement. Of course, this publicity stunt will garner these thugs sympathy from the sniveling lapdog media, but I, for one, would love to see the full force of a leading Western government exposing the terror ties of terror-tied groups like CAIR. The United States government successfully prosecuted the previously well-regarded Islamic charity, the Holy Land Foundation, in the largest terrorist funding trial in our nation's history. CAIR, ISNA, MSA, MSU and over 300 other Muslim groups were named, many designated unindicted co-conspirators. Those prosecutions were scuttled by the treacherous Obama administration under Attorney General Eric Holder.
We know that there is a "mountain of evidence." Let's hope that the Obama administration will share it will the Harper administration. Don't hold your breath. But there are numerous sources.
Discovery in the case will bite these Islamic supremacists. You have to wonder what these jihad enablers are thinking. Does CAIR-Canada think that just because they changed their name last July to the National Council of Muslim that they are fooling anyone?
CAIR has done this before. And lost. The suit was dismissed. CAIR filed a $1.35 million libel suit filed by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) against Andrew Whitehead of Anti-CAIR (ACAIR), who called CAIR a "terrorist front organization," that was "founded by Hamas supporters," and was working to "make radical Islam the dominant religion in the United States." The case was dismissed with prejudice.
Given the current craven climate, my bet is that they think that the media will aid and abet their propaganda and advance their lies, this time in their jihad against the Harper government.
At a recent CAIR conference, the CAIR/ISNA Spokeswoman said, "Media in the US is very gullible…If you have something to say, especially as a Muslim, they'll come running to you. Take advantage of that!"
CCTV: The National Council of Canadian Muslims is serving the Prime Minister's Office with a libel notice, claiming that Stephen Harper's communications director defamed the group in an interview earlier this month.
The NCCM is demanding "an unequivocal apology and retraction of the defamatory words" that Jason MacDonald, Harper's communications director, used in an interview with Sun News Network on Jan. 16.
The notice quotes the offending statement as: "We will not take seriously criticism from an organization with documented ties to terrorist organization such as Hamas."
The notice says MacDonald made the statement when asked about the NCCM's objection to the inclusion of a particular rabbi on Harper's official delegation to the Middle East.
The council had criticized the inclusion of Rabbi Daniel Korobkin because he introduced American activists Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer, who founded the group Stop Islamization of America, at a Toronto event last fall.
In its libel notice, the NCCM says MacDonald's words "were meant or were understood to mean that NCCM is, gives material support to, and/or is affiliated with a criminal terrorist organization. These words are defamatory per se."
The document notes that the federal government has designated Hamas as a terrorist organization.
"The defamatory words were stated maliciously in order to discredit and insult an organization that did nothing other than exercise its constitutional right to freedom of expression to criticize a decision made by the Prime Minister," the notice states.
The notice is a first step toward what could become a formal libel lawsuit, in which the council "will seek damages, interest and costs against you," referring to Harper and MacDonald.
Stephen Lecce, a spokesperson for the prime minister, told CTV News Tuesday that because "this matter may be the subject of litigation, we have no further comment."
In the notice, the council says it is an "independent, non-partisan, non-profit organization" that has spent 14 years working on human rights and civil liberties issues and public advocacy on behalf of Canadian Muslims.
The group says MacDonald's comments "were stated to discredit the NCCM's reputation and undermine its ability to do its work."

Canada's Prime Minister: A Display of Rare Courage
by Salim Mansur:
"It [the new face of anti-Semitism] targets the Jewish people by targeting Israel…. What else can we call criticism that selectively concerns only the Jewish state and effectively denies its right to exist, to defend itself, while systematically ignoring or excusing the violence and oppression all around it?" — Stephen Harper, Prime Minister of Canada
Invited to address the Knesset, the Israeli parliament in Jerusalem, Stephen Harper, the Prime Minister of Canada, did not hold back in expressing his government's support for the Jewish state as the lonely and beleaguered democracy in the region. As Harper told members of the Knesset, "Israel is the only country in the Middle East which has long anchored itself in the ideals of freedom, democracy and the rule of law. And these are not mere notions. They are the things that, over time and against all odds, have proven to be, over and over again, the only ground in which human rights, political stability and economic prosperity may flourish…. through fire and water, Canada will stand with you."
Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu (left) introduces Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper (center) at the Knesset podium, on Jan. 20, 2014. (Image source: Canada PM's Office) |
Harper's address was a window into his heart and mind, and the clearest expression without any equivocation of how Canada, under his leadership, sees the bleak situation in the Middle East. It was also a message from leader of one of the G8 countries to member states of the UN, and especially to other Western democracies, that Canada's embrace of Israel transcends politics and is ethically grounded on moral principles. As Harper stated, "Canada supports Israel fundamentally because it is right to do so," because "the special relationship between Canada and Israel is rooted in shared values."
Harper's recent visit to Israel was his first since being elected prime minister in 2006 at the head of a minority Conservative Party government. His minority government was returned in the 2008 election, and then in May 2011 Harper's Conservatives finally won a majority in the Canadian parliament. Throughout this period Harper demonstrated an unflinchingly consistent, even politically courageous, support for Israel at home and abroad when such support has been seen by many as unwisely compromising Canada's even-handed approach in dealing with the problems of the region.
Canada has seen itself for a long time now as a "middle power", its influence in the world carefully harnessed through its role as a helpful fixer in the UN and other multilateral bodies. This role and the accompanying self-image over the past several decades assumed a default position for Canadian foreign policy when dealing with the developing countries of what until lately was described as the third world. It helped position Canada to be seen as an honest broker between the rich North and the poor South, and in this role Canada's political leaders through the Cold War years and after found they were regularly praised and courted by a majority of the UN member states. This meant, in time, that Canada's views on issues that garnered the support of a UN majority were also carefully crafted in part to maintain this position and image, and the diplomacy at work to effect such a result was also domestically resonant with a segment of the public that cared about Canada's image abroad.
The effectively quasi-permanent majority of the UN is comprised of developing countries of Asia, Africa, the Caribbean and South America. Within this majority stands the Islamic bloc of 57 Arab and Muslim states – all are members of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) – that, in voting together, can either make or break a majority vote at the UN. It is this influence of the OIC and the votes it can deliver that regularly isolates and reprimands Israel at the UN. It was the machinations of the Islamic bloc that led to the notorious passage of the UN General Assembly resolution in November 1975 declaring "Zionism is a form of racism and racial discrimination." And though this resolution was revoked in 1991 after the end of the Cold War, the Islamic bloc in the UN yet pulls enough weight in voting numbers for member states to be careful not to alienate it.

Chicago Blackhawks center Dave Bolland left Monday's game against the Nashville Predators, and, as per ESPN Chicago, is now listed as day-to-day with a lower-body injury.
The injury reportedly occurred when Bolland blocked a Shea Weber shot in the first period of Monday's game between the Blackhawks and Nashville Predators. He went to the dressing room and did not return.
As per Tracey Myers of CSN Chicago, the Predators also announced that Gabriel Bourque also left the game and did not return with an upper-body injury.
The Blackhawks raced out to a two-goal lead over Nashville, before winning 3-2 in a shootout.
Defenseman Michal Rozsival scored for Chicago in the fifth round of the skills competition for the win. He still doesn't have a goal in regulation or overtime this season.
Rozsival didn't do anything out of the ordinary or spectacular. Just a deke to the backhand and top corner on Nashville goalie Pekka Rinne.
"We've seen it a few times in the practices," Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane told the Chicago Tribune.
"He does the same move every time. He pulls it to his backhand and he seems to score every time. I thought it was a good call for the coaches to put him in there and the wily veteran he is, he stuffed it into the net."
