I have done some reading on Kenya and Tanzania including some of the threads on this forum. I am I confused as to which companies are best to use for land arrangements. I had used this forum a few years ago when planning a trip to Egypt and learnt of Lady Egypt, no matter how much I read about Kenya and Tanzania, I just can't find repeated posts of one tour operator that stands out. Please, fodorites, point me in the right direction, which tour operators should I be looking at?

Should have mentioned I am a solo traveller, don't know if an independent trip will be feasiable costwise. Am I better looking at group tours to keep the costs manageable?
Any information will be appreciated, thanks.

Hi RJames - I know exactly how you feel. When I first began planning a trip to Tanzania in 2009 it did seem overwhelming, although stumbling onto this forum was most fortuitous! I think there are many many good tour operators and that is why no one or two companies or individuals have jumped out at you. Since you don't state how long you want to be in Africa or your budget I can't comment on feasibility but one thing you will read on this forum again and again is how much people prefer private safaris over group.
You might want to concentrate on Kenya as I think in general the cost is a bit lower than Tanzania. You could travel independently, yet when you stay at camps, you would join others in the vehicle for game drives. Plus usually you would eat dinner as one large group. That way you have the flexibility of going where you want and not being stuck with a group for say 2 weeks, yet you will not get lonely as there will always be people to interact with. I did this in Botswana as a solo female traveler and it was fine. When i went to Tanzania it was with a friend and we had our own private guide and vehicle for 2 weeks - that was fantastic, the best way to go, but would feel odd if you were a solo traveler.
I'm sure others will chime in with recommendations on tour operators, but I have had very good experiences with Africa Adventure Company (to Botswana) and Eben Shoeman (Eben Signature Safaris) to Tanzania. Eben has also planned my third trip, which will be to Rwanda and Kenya this coming summer. Overwhelming as it is in the beginning, the planning is so much fun as part of the overall experience!

Do you have a time frame or budget in mind?
As a solo traveler, you'd be paying for the entire cost of the vehicle/guide if traveling by road on a private safari. Figure at least $150/day or more for the vehicle and guide (I think costs are higher in Tanzania) plus park fees (up to $80/day in high season in Kenya, some private conservancies are higher) and accommodations. You could also camp and most operators can provide camping equipment and a cook. In Kenya, there are also self catering bandas (some are operated by the Kenya Wildlife Service, others are privately operated) which are sort of an option in between camping and staying at a lodge or tented camp.
If flying, you'd join other guests at the camp or lodge where you're staying on game drives. You may still be looking at a single supplement for your accommodations though this is sometimes waived depending on the property and/or season.
Report Abuse
Prices are seasonal, which any guidebook should provide which months fit in where; as solo traveler the single supplement which depending on time of year might be waived if staying at some lodges/camps.
Number of days is important as with 10 or less it's not recommended trying to visit both; with 14/days can do a bit of each.
Visas required for both - USD$50 for Kenya; USD$100 for Tanzania (US Passport holders, most other passports it's US$50). Yellow Fever inoculation required, with proof of same for entry to TNZ if arriving from KEN. You'll also require malaria meds regardless which country visited.
Itineraries can be 'all driving' 'all flying' or a 'combo drive/fly' - are you okay with small planes, most with about 12-19/seats?
From your reading, i.e., guiebooks as Fodor's Complete Safari Planning Guide; the Lonely Planet Kenya; or Brandt's Tanzania - do you have an idea of areas of interest? That can well determine which country would be best to visit,
Also check int'l airfares from home city to either Nairobi/NBO Kenya or Kilimanjaro/JRO Tanzania, as your routing either country will be based on this. See a site as Kayak @ www.kayak.com for fares/schedules/carriers.
And, of course... what kind of budget do you have?
Report Abuse
Many thanks for the helpful replies. I am completely overwhelmed by the information, prices, etc I have read and am confused how to organize my upcoming trip. I appreciate the help of this forum and the suggestions made.
I haven't thought of budget as I being seeing all sorts of different prices, granted there are many different travel style too, such as camping (not for me) and fly in safaris. Ideally if I can find a fly in safari at a reasonable price for a solo traveller I'd go for that option. I have flown in small planes before and know what to expect. Some years ago I'd been on a fly in safari in Namibia and absolutely loved everything about it, well everything BUT the price! Debating if a fly in safari or a less expensive option is the way to go for East Africa, if a less expensive option I would consider mid range accomodation (comfort,cleaniness and a private washroom are key). I know the benefits of a private vehicle during the safari but I don't mind if I am in a small group. Ultimately, a budget will have to be organized, and costs will be one of the deciding factors as to which option I choose.
sandi, I did not know Fodors has a safari planning guide, this is definitely something I must get my hands on and read. I have looked at Lonely Planet and the DK Eyewitness guides for Kenya as this is what was available at my local library.

I've used the same companies as Catseyes suggests. Sandi from above offers Africa trips with Africa Serendipity.

Here are a few more links all from people in your exact position. Some of these link back to each other and some have repetitive info. but they serve as good primers. They are listed in random order.
1. Quite a bit about Southern Africa:
2. Includes comments on where to see certain animals
3. This one starts with a plea for help which elicits info on the whole of African safari destinations. The poster reports back on the East African trip taken.
4. This includes SafariCraig's commnets, an agent with Travel Beyond
Maybe avoid 2Afrika. Too many negative experiences about them popping up.
There are mentions and links to East Africa Index and Southern Africa Index, which lists trip reports. That is now out of date by several years, but you can still check out the older reports.
Even in rainier times, nobody returns and comments. It was awful because of the weather. You'll still see animals. Especially on a first trip, you'll be amazed.
Report Abuse
Contact a seasoned safari planner such as Sandi at Africa Serendipity (NY) or Bill at The Wild Source (CO). You should have some idea of what your budget will be and about how long you want to travel. Beyond that, the safari planner can help you with ideas and itineraries. I wouldn't turn your back on tented camps; they are the best way to experience a safari and you're not really "camping" in most instances.
If you can't work out a reasonably priced solo safari, you could also look into Overseas Adventure Travel. They have a Tanzania safari and also a Kenya/Tanzania safari. They could help match you up with a roommate, if you wish.

High fliers and bottom feeders
The best and worst from Week 1 of the NHL season
The old and the young rose to the top as NHL hockey resumed this week after a four-month lockout.
Here's a look at the best and worst from the first week of the lockout-shortened season:
The Good
1. VLADIMIR TARASENKO: The 21-year-old rookie for the St. Louis Blues staked an early claim on the Calder Trophy for rookie of the year as he piled up four goals and two assists in three games. The slick right winger scored on his first two NHL shots in an opening-night victory over the Detroit Red Wings.
2. NAIL YAKUPOV: The first overall pick in the June draft bats a puck out of the air to score the game-tying goal with 4.7 seconds left in regulation time and the Edmonton Oilers go on to beat Los Angeles 2-1. But what lingers is the goal celebration, as Yakupov slides nearly the length of the ice on his knees, stick upraised, and euphoric Oilers fans go bananas.
3. DAMIEN BRUNNER: The Red Wings' Swiss rookie ends a shootout against Columbus goalie Sergei Bobrovsky with a move that NBC analyst Pierre McGuire calls "Datsyukian." Brunner seems to defy the laws of physics as he drags himself and the puck sideways on the forehand and stuffs it in.
4. OLD BOYS: Opening night saw veterans at or near 40 years old pile up points. Jaromir Jagr and Teemu Selanne each had two goals and a pair of assists. Jagr's Dallas teammate Ray Whitney had a goal and a helper. And Alex Kovalev returned to the NHL with a goal and two assists. That's not to mention 40-year-old Martin Brodeur, who led the league in save percentage and goals-against average after two games.
5. PATRICK MARLEAU: The San Jose veteran became the first player since Peter Stastny in 1982-83 to open the season with six goals in his first three games. It helped that linemate Joe Thornton had a league-leading nine points, including assists on five Marleau goals.
The Bad
1. NO PLACE LIKE HOME: Those long pre-game ceremonies aren't always kind to the local lads, as 17 teams lost their home openers. It was worst in Los Angeles, where after a rousing Stanley Cup banner raising, the visiting Chicago Blackhawks smoked the Kings 5-2.
2. INJURY WATCH: It was expected after a long layoff with a busy schedule that there would be injuries. To name a few: Colorado's Steve Downie is gone with a torn ACL. Flyers' defenceman Andrej Meszaros is out a month with a shoulder problem and winger Scott Hartnell has a foot injury. Toronto's Joffrey Lupul has a broken forearm.
3. THE LUONGO SAGA: The man of many trade rumours didn't sit on the bench long as new starting goalie Cory Schneider was blitzed for five goals in 27 minutes of the Vancouver Canuck's opener against Anaheim. Roberto Luongo started the next game, but the debate resumed as Schneider bounced back with a 34-save win over Calgary.
4. WHAT FAVOURITES? Pre-season predictions went heavily for the New York Rangers, who dropped their first two games and ended the week at 1-3-0. The Kings started 0-2-1, while the Red Wings were 1-2-0 in three games. And Washington, supposedly in a bounce-back year, went 0-3-0 and were outscored 14-6.
5. RED LIGHTS: Some well-regarded goaltenders put up some dreadful first-week numbers. Cam Ward of Carolina's goals-against average was 4.71, just behind Mike Smith of the Coyotes' 4.62. The worst was Braden Holtby of Washington at 5.04.

A key senator has cautioned that part of a White House plan to strengthen cybersecurity at commercial networks by disclosing audits of security practices could expose vulnerable targets in major parts of the U.S. infrastructure such as power grids, Aliya Sternstein writes in Nextgov.
Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), the ranking member of Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, said at a hearing May 23 that security plans would be publicly accessible under the White House plan, and added, "We don't want to give those that would do us harm a road map on to how to attack our critical infrastructure," Nextgov reports.
She was reacting to the White House's 52 pages of legislative text that detail the Obama administration's position on issues that have hung up cybersecurity measures, the article states.
Committee Chairman Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) and Collins have introduced cybersecurity legislation reflects some of the Obama's administration's plans, Nextgov notes.

While security by obscurity is obviously trash, the less the enemy knows about what you're doing, the better. Sure, the audit may detail what's going on at the very perimeter of the network, which is stuff the bad guys will know or easily figure out anyways, but it will also include details on things they don't and shouldn't know about the internal operations. Remember, security is all about the balance between how hard it is to break in/how valuable the system is. If you do half the work for them, you make an effective attack that much more likely.
You NEVER EVER reveal the results of audits or vulnerabilities to anyone except those who have a need to know, and those charged with fixing the vulnerabilities. For this guy in the White House to even suggest that this is a prudent step to take further underscores how little he knows about cyber security, cyber warfare, or the protection of data. He is in fact the single point of failure and will remain so as long as he is in office. He has an agenda, and it would be really nice to know what it is. It most certainly is not to support and defend the Constitution of the United States (and its people) against all enemies both foreign and domestic.
The US has been giving way too much info about many things lately. This trend started about 30 years ago. The facility that I worked in then had a very sensitive part of one building that was key to our defense. So, they put up big armor plates on the outside of that part of the building. We were all saying that they should have just painted a big bullseye on it instead. Today, you would find a detailed map on Wikileaks or Facebook!!
It's bad enough consolidating everything and creating a central point of failure for any merged system. Then you go and enumerate all the details?
Magic wands don't exist to fix security problems. It takes time and money to fix problems and limited resources and risk management determine what to fix first.

MOST of Tony Blair's ministers were only too grateful to put electioneering behind them and sink happily into the comforts of government offices. But for Donald Dewar, the Scottish secretary, and Ron Davies, the Welsh secretary, the campaigning is far from over. They face a summer of tramping the streets persuading their countrymen to turn out and vote again this autumn, this time in referendums for devolution.
At first sight, this should not be much of a problem. After all, the rout of the Tories, the only party opposed to constitutional change, was so comprehensive that, for the first time in Scotland's history (and for the first time since 1906 in Wales), no Tories at all were elected in either country. Moreover, Labour, having won 56 of the 72 Scottish seats and 34 of the 40 Welsh seats, beat all the other parties out of sight.
Yet winning the referendums might be more difficult than Labour's landslide suggests. Although the Tories won few votes for their defence of the constitutional status quo, there are signs that they were beginning to persuade people on the issue itself. ICM, a polling firm, found that support for Labour's planned Scottish parliament ebbed steadily during the campaign and that more and more people found the idea of no change attractive (see chart).
This mirrors what happened during the referendum campaigns in 1979, when the last Labour government tried to set up assemblies in Edinburgh and Cardiff. In Scotland, polls several months before the vote showed a two-to-one majority in favour of devolution. But on polling day, only a tiny majority voted for devolution, not enough to overcome the rule that 40% of all those eligible to vote had to endorse the scheme. In Wales, backing for devolution dwindled away until it was rejected contemptuously by a four-to-one margin.
Mr Dewar thinks this is unlikely to happen again. He reckons that what scuppered devolution in 1979 was the growing unpopularity of the Labour government during the "winter of discontent" of public-sector strikes. Since Mr Blair should still be enjoying a honeymoon with the voters by the time of this autumn's referendums, and has promised personally to lead the campaign for "yes" votes, winning the simple majority required this time should be much easier, especially because the Liberal Democrats will also back Labour's schemes.
Scotland holds the key to getting Labour's reform programme rolling. If the Scots vote for a parliament, the Welsh are more likely to follow suit in their referendum, which the government plans to hold a few weeks later. An NOP opinion poll on April 23rd-27th showed 46% of Welsh voters were for an assembly (35% were against), but that 56% would vote for devolution if the Scots had already done so.
And yet, despite Mr Dewar's optimism, the fact remains that three-fifths of Scottish voters are, at the moment, opposed to Labour's plans, if those preferring independence are added to those wanting no change. In addition, Labour's huge election success could actually undercut, rather than increase, support for devolution. For the first time since 1979, the Scots and Welsh now have a government for which they voted. Since dislike of being governed by a minority of Tories was a big reason why many people thought devolution was a good idea, many Labour voters may now think it is not worth the bother.
At the moment, the Tories are engrossed in fighting over who was to blame for the debacle. The Scottish National Party (SNP), which gained two seats in the election, bringing its total to six, says it will decide what to do only when it has seen the government's white paper, due to be published next month.
Much could depend on what position each party takes during the referendum campaign. Some Tories and SNP supporters think that their parties' best option is to try to win seats in a Scottish parliament, rather than opposing its creation in the referendum. But that view may not prevail. The Tories would have to ditch dearly held unionist principles and the SNP would have to accept that the parliament is not the meaningless talking-shop it claimed it would be in the general-election campaign. Moreover, the chance of defeating the Labour government on one of its central policies within six months of the election may be too tempting for either party to pass up. Such a defeat would be a serious blow for Mr Blair.
Mr Dewar was sent to the Scottish Office because he has a defter touch than George Robertson, his shadow-cabinet predecessor. Mr Dewar may need all his political skills to win a referendum which once was thought to be all but in the bag.

How to Edit CSS Dotted Outline
By Thoriq Firdaus. Filed in Web Design
By default, when an anchor tag element is in
active or
focus state, a dotted line appears around it, as shown in the image below.
This outline is used as a visual aid for users who are accessing the website only with the keyboard, technically with the Tab key. It shows the users what they are currently focusing in. However, in particular cases, this outline turns ugly, annoying, and obtrusive making some designers prefer to move this outline out of sight with the following CSS rules.
a:hover, a:active, a:focus { outline: 0; }
Keep the outline
It is suggested that we should not remove the outline. Instead, we can try styling the outline presentation to make it fit and work well with our site design. By removing this outline, we will prevent accessibility for users without a mouse or for screen readers.
Styling the outline
This outline is specified with
outline property in CSS. We can specify the outline styles, width, and colors. Given the example from the previous figure, we can style the outline, as follows.
a:active, a:focus { outline: 2px solid #e9841d; }
This will result in:
Now doesn't that look better then the default outline style?
Replacing the Outline
Alternatively, we may remove the outline and replace it with the other CSS properties. For example, we can replace the outline with the
backgrond-color, like so.
a:active, a:focus { outline: 0; backgrond-color: #e9841d; }
Now, when the menu is in
focus state, the background menu is highlighted with a distinctive background color, instead of with an outline.
Other CSS properties that we may use for replacement are
border, and
Final Thought
There are many people with disabilities and with limited access to the Web. So, making our website more accessible will indeed be very helpful for them, including providing interactive presentation for elements in
focus state, instead of removing the outline. For more about this subject matter, you can head over to the following references.

Stephen Greenleaf Bulfinch, Post 27
The following excerpt is from the diary of Stephen Greenleaf Bulfinch.
Sunday, Nov. 8th
Of military affairs, the rumor is now, - said to be confirmed to-day, - of the taking of Fort Sumter by our forces. We hear of late sad accounts of the treatment of Union prisoners by the rebels, - their suffering from want of food, etc. Their own destitution may partly extenuate this wrong. God grant the end be soon, & the victory of Union & freedom!
Sunday, November 15th
The rumor mentioned in my last entry [the recapturing of Fort Sumter] was not corroborated; but successive advantages give good hope for the cause of Union and Freedom. We lament meanwhile, for the sufferings of our brave men, prisoners in Richmond, said to be almost starved. A plot has been revealed through the British authorities, formed by refugees in Canada, for attacks on our lake cities etc.
Monday Nov. 23d 1863
Last week occurred the Dedication of the Battle Cemetery at Gettysburg. An oration by Mr. Everett, & some noble words from President Lincoln.
Sunday Nov. 28th
Of public events, I must name with solemn gratitude the victory granted to the union arms near Chattanooga & Lookout Mountain. Hope is again encouraged that the end of this awful strife is near.

Don't look any further, you've found the best family owned and operated pizzeria and Italian restaurant in South Florida. If you like " New York " pizza and Italian specialties, you will think you've taken a step back to the Bronx, Brooklyn or Manhattan . ...I eat here several times a week, the only thing better then the food is the service. Down to earth, people, who treat you like family. Everything from pizza, to subs, to dinner dishes, trust me I've tried them all......Outstanding!

The process of ordering with this restaurant is fast and easy. I recommend them to everyone I talk to whose looking for some great pizza or pasta!

I ordered a chicken salad from Nick's pizza for delivery. When I looked at the chicken on the salad I knew it was raw before I even took the cover off as it was bright pink in the middle. I called them and asked them to replace the chicken salad. They told me it was not a problem and apologized about the mishap. However, when the driver arrived; he was holding a container with a few slices of chicken. They sent over 1/4 of the amount of chicken that was on the salad to begin with and they were asking for the other chicken back! They didn't send a new salad....and they wanted their chicken back to boot!

The long road to Tokyo: Japanese aggression in China, Southeast Asia, and the South Pacific, with special attention to books about the Rape of Nanking, Japanese fighter planes and pilots, the Burma campaign, and the Hiroshima bomb
The gold standard in tax return software, from $19.95 at Amazon
The 'comfort women'The New York Times has an op-ed by Mindy Kotler about Japan's "denialism" with respect to the sex slaves of the Second World War, whom the Imperial Japanese army and navy knew as "comfort women." These were mostly Koreans recruited to work in the home islands but then diverted against their will to front-line brothels. Other nationalities, including Dutch and American prisoners, were also forced into prostitution. According to Kotler, the current Japanese premier is walking back the 1993 Kono Statement that acknowledged the country's guilt in this matter, in what was widely regarded in Asia as a long-overdue apology to the women who were violated in this fashion.
The run-up to Pearl HarborAn excellent book! Eri Hotta was born and raised in Tokyo but educated at Princeton and Oxford, so she has mastered both languages and uses them well. How often have you picked up a book whose author can say offhand that all the translations are hers? To be sure, the title is somewhat deceptive: Japan 1941: Countdown to Infamy. Don't imagine that you are getting one of those "year" books that try to squeeze a whole civilization into twelve months. Hotta often delves into the recent past, and sometimes even to events at the turn of the century and earlier, notably the Sino-Japanese War of 1895 and the Russo-Japanese War of 1905. She has been criticized for letting Japan off too easily, and for stressing American responsibility for the run-up to war. Blue skies! -- Dan Ford

Born in Ipswich and raised in Saxmundham, Suffolk I was educated at Woodbridge School, Suffolk and University College Cardiff. Writing mainly on gardening and environmental matters, Jack Lightfoot Goes Wild is my first novel and will be enjoyed by teenagers and adults young and old with an interest in wildlife, what might lie beyond the boundaries of perceived reality, (and a healthy disregard for authority). I continue to live in Cardiff with my partner Bernadette, son Torin, bearded dragon Fred and a variety of small furry animals. When not sat at the computer or reading I am often found in the garden tending to my fruit trees and roses or walking in the wild Welsh countryside in search of inspiration and a nice pub serving good food and real ales. I believe tarka dall and chips to be the ultimate comfort food which fortunately harms no otters in its preparation. Live your dreams, (but not the ones that involve falling great distances!)

TIRUPUR: Leading European brand for expectant mothers and children, Mothercare, dedicated to the people the new maternity block at T.S. Kandasamy Chettiyar Memorial Maternity and Child Welfare Home of the Tirupur Corporation.
Its chairman Ian Peacock declared open the 20-bed block and presented the certificate to Mayor K. Selvaraj.
Stressing on the benefit of partnership, Mr. Peacock said that the partnership between Mothercare and Tirupur had been strong.
"We have opened our first office outside the United Kingdom here. We have a special place for Tirupur," Mr. Peacock said.
The construction of the modern maternity block was a good example of partnership between Mothercare and its vendors for the cause of the community, he added.
Thanking the Mothercare and its knitwear suppliers for taking up the project in Tirupur, Mr. Selvaraj that their name and fame would last long as like the late T.S. Kandasamy Chettiyar who donated the land and building for the maternity home several decades ago.
He said the Mothercare's Rs.70-lakh initiative had prompted the Rotary Club of Tirupur North and Fulchand Exports to renovate Eawaramoorthy Maternity Block in front of the railway station here at Rs. 40 lakh. He appealed to the staff of the hospital and patients to keep the building clean.
Terming it a small beginning, Martin Antony, managing director of Mothercare India Sourcing Limited, said the partnership between Mothercare and its vendors would make many service projects possible.
He said the Mothercare Valuable Trust would take care of the maintenance of the building and landscaping.
Corporation Commissioner M. Ashokan and Eastman Exports managing director N. Chandran offered felicitations.
R. Rajkumar of Best Corporation also spoke.

Are they weeds or some kinds or my wildflower plants?
I have sown native plant seeds and wildflower seeds in Spring and very early fall. I did not notice the two kinds of plants until their reaching to half the sizes as they are now. They have grown so fast. I don't believe that they are two kinds of my wildflower plants. They are probably weeds. However, why had they not showed up before I sowed wildflower seeds? They have never been anywhere either. They just grow up at the exact spots where I sowed the seeds. They confuse me. Please check the pictures to see if they are weeds (I uploaded 2 pictures for each type of plant for better details). The leaves of the first type plant look like philodendron's, yet it bears vines close to the flower parts.
The second type is below:
Thank you for helping
Last year I got several yellow squash off of a volunteer. They didn't taste as good as cultivated squash, though. I think they were cross pollinated with something wild, so the flavor wasn't the same.
But I've been perfectly happy with non-edible pumpkins and gourds from volunteers.
This year I had a volunteer pumpkin vine grow straight up the cup plants. It grew to the top of those 10' tall plants. It was amusing to see. I ended up cutting it back because it started to pull the plants down.

Yes. If you tighten up the privacy controls enough on Flash, many video sites won't play, and some play badly. YouTube's player, for example, will display the "Press ESC to exit full screen mode" for the duration of play. There's absolutely no reason why that feature should depend on storing persistent information. It would be interesting to subpoena the developer and the documentation during development to determine if that was willfully put in to discourage users from using strict privacy settings.

So much migration puts Europe's dykes in danger of bursting
The PM plans to renegotiate the basic tenets of the EU. He may find more support in surprising quarters, including the Dutch liberal left
In the Netherlands, an "orange alert" is issued when the country's rivers rise to alarming levels. The time has come to issue another kind of orange alert – one that warns about some of the negative consequences of the free movement of workers within the European Union. We need to watch out: in some places the dykes are in danger of bursting.
Most of us benefit from the free movement of workers within the EU. It is important to our economies, especially in professional occupations where one can see the outline of a European labour market emerging, and the principle is rightly seen as part of the European ideal. We do not want to see this pillar damaged through dwindling popular support. That is why we, especially on the European centre-left, must think harder about how to make it work in the interests of all our citizens, not just well educated professionals.
The right to live and work in other EU countries is one of the founding ideas in the 1957 Treaty of Rome. But until the mid-2000s it was rarely taken advantage of; in the year 2000 only about 0.1 per cent of EU citizens moved to another EU country.
That changed in 2004 when the UK, Sweden and Ireland waived the seven-year transitional period and allowed immediate access to their labour markets for the new member states in central and eastern Europe. The effect, especially in the UK, was rather dramatic with about 1.5m people arriving in the UK from those countries in the following six years. Since 2011, all the other EU states have opened up too, with further significant flows from central and eastern Europe into countries including Germany and the Netherlands.
In retrospect, not enough thought was given to the scale of the flows. Up until the mid-2000s very few people took advantage of free movement because the economic levels of different EU countries were similar. Yet with the accession of the central and eastern European countries in the mid-2000s, a bloc of countries joined the EU (combined population around 80m) with income per head of only around a quarter of the richer EU states.
This has created a big incentive to move, at least temporarily, especially for those in lower skill jobs. And this has had a disruptive effect on some of our poorer and less well educated citizens in the richer EU states like the UK and the Netherlands. They are competing against people with much lower wage expectations.
In the UK, about 20 per cent of all low-skill workers are born outside the country and certain low-wage sectors such as hospitality and food manufacturing are heavily dominated by people from poorer EU countries. In the Netherlands, workers from central and eastern Europe make up 12 per cent of all employees in agriculture and horticulture.
We need a new settlement which is fair both to the people of the sending countries and the receiving ones. And we need to stamp out abuse. Workers from poorer EU countries are sometimes taken advantage of by unscrupulous employers who win a competitive advantage over those who play by the rules. Too often workers receive low wages, work long hours and sometimes pay high rents for terrible accommodation.
The Netherlands is already taking a tougher line, imposing higher fines on unscrupulous companies and appointing inspectors who target fraud and rogue employment agencies. But we need to do this together, within the EU.
Even when the system is not being overtly abused there is some displacement and competition that is considered unfair, especially when unemployment is high. Some of our weakest citizens are losing out in the labour market to better equipped outsiders. It is important to think about how we can protect the labour market situation of these vulnerable groups.
It is wrong to dismiss the complaints of those affected as the usual gripes about "foreigners". Even if such complaints are often exaggerated, we must nevertheless take them seriously; if we don't, they will fuel xenophobia.
In continental Europe, countries warn each other when their river levels rise. For the Netherlands, that's very reassuring. We're able to take timely safety measures and avoid undue disruption.
That is the thinking behind this Anglo-Dutch warning too. So while free movement is a cornerstone of the EU, as our experience of it grows we must be alert to the side effects and ready to be flexible in our response. We must not be blind to the fact that the EU approaching 2014 is different from the EU of years past.
There is a lack of urgency in Brussels on this question, which is why we strongly urge our European colleagues to put the downsides of the free movement of workers high on the agenda and tackle this issue together. If we wish to keep enjoying the benefits of free movement, we must be prepared to combat its negative side effects. This is in the interest of every EU citizen.
Correction: The original version of this article incorrectly stated that "in the year 2000 only about 0.1 per cent of EU citizens lived and worked in another EU country". It has now been changed to: "in the year 2000 only about 0.1 per cent of EU citizens moved to another EU country".

Basically iterating through a list and,
- Invoke method on first object
- Catch first exception (if any); if there are no more exceptions to catch, return normally. Otherwise, keep on invoking method until all exceptions are caught.
- Move on to next object.
I can iterate through each object, invoke the method, and catch one exception but I do not know how to continuously invoke the method on it and keep on catching exceptions :S
Thanks :)

The phone hacking scandal roiling Britain has cast a fresh light on the cozy ties and outsized political clout of media mogul Rupert Murdoch, the executive chairman of the sprawling News Corp. empire, which includes extensive media properties in Britain, the United States and other countries.
Rupert Murdoch's many high-placed friends
Murdoch, 81, has for decades enjoyed friendly relations with a succession of British leaders. Here's a look at the connections between Murdoch — sometimes referred to as Britain's permanent Cabinet member — and British political leaders of all stripes.
It was Conservative Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher who in the 1980s allowed Murdoch to add The Times and The Sunday Times to his stable of media companies, which including The Sun and the News of the World. Murdoch has denied making any special agreements, but his papers strongly backed her conservative, anti-union policies.
Murdoch's The Sun tabloid was credited by many with helping Thatcher's Conservative successor, John Major, and his party win the 1992 parliamentary elections. When it looked like Major would lose to Labour's Neil Kinnock, The Sun published a bold front-page headline: "If Kinnock wins today will the last person to leave Britain please turn out the lights."
Murdoch told Britain's judge-led inquiry into media ethics Wednesday that he regards former Prime Minister Tony Blair of the Labour Party as a personal friend. When he was in power, Blair telephoned Murdoch repeatedly before committing UK troops to the Iraq war in 2003 — a decision strongly endorsed by Murdoch's papers. Blair also reportedly was on good terms with Rebekah Brooks, Murdoch's former News of the World editor and his News International chief executive who resigned amid the scandal. Blair is also godfather to one of Rupert Murdoch's daughters.
Murdoch says he felt a "personal connection" with Brown, Blair's successor as prime minister, and holds him in "high personal esteem." But Murdoch admitted to the Leveson inquiry that his relationship with Brown suffered after The Sun switched its support from Brown's Labour Party to the Conservatives in September 2009. Brown had initially resisted Murdoch's influence, but later attended the wedding of Murdoch executive Brooks.
