Sadr City suicide bomber uses fruit truck to kill 66 on market day

Sunday, July 2, 2006

A suicide bomber exploded a truck bomb in the crowded Al-Ula market in Sadr City in Baghdad on Saturday, killing 66 people and injuring over a 100.

‘At the beginning of this market, the criminal blew up his dynamite-packed truck after trying to go over the pavement,’ said Iraq’s Deputy Health Minister Sabah al-Hussein.

The explosion happened when a police patrol was passing by and caused heavy casualties in the morning market rush. Some shoppers were sent flying on top of nearby two-storey buildings.

The force of the blast left a large crater and wreckage of blown-out cars and windowless buildings. Rescuers were left to pick through a sickening scene of human remains mixed in with exploded vegetable matter and dead animals.

Sadr City, a Shiite city of two million in which religious leader Moqtada Sadr has found popular support, had many times before been targeted by Sunni terrorists who were blamed by some residents for this attack.

It was the deadliest bombing of civilians since Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki‘s government assumed responsibility for domestic security in May 2006.

Experts said the truck bomb was a lethal concoction of explosives, shells and shrapnel hidden under a consignment of fruit. The driver of the truck blew himself up in the explosion.

Experts fear for the health of London whale

Saturday, January 21, 2006

Experts are now fearing the worst for the northern bottle-nosed whale that is still swimming in the Thames river London. The Thames Whale was first spotted on Thursday, with widespread media coverage yesterday and huge crowds of spectators attracted to the river.

There were hopes that the whale was heading back out to sea, but these were dashed by a fresh sighting of the whale from Albert bridge in Chelsea.

Experts say that the whale is now looking increasingly distressed, with numerous cuts to its body. The whale has already been partly beached on a few occasions, but each time has managed to free itself.

According to blogger Andrew (eyedropper.co.uk), a BBC picture editor, if the whale should die it would be up to Admiral the Lord Boyce GCB OBE ‘to arrange for a tooth to be extracted and sent to the Natural History Museum, and a proper burial to be made’.

IMF: World on brink of recession; prepares special loan program

Thursday, October 9, 2008

The head of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) says the world is on the brink of a global recession but predicts the economy will begin to recover by late 2009.

Dominique Strauss-Kahn, Managing Director of the IMF, stressed nations must work together to avert a global recession and warns there is “no domestic solution” to the crisis. He also said this week’s coordinated interest rate cuts around the world are a good example of the international cooperation needed to restore faltering economies.

Furthermore, he announced the IMF has activated an emergency program Wednesday that allows the fund to provide loans more easily and quickly to emerging countries in economic trouble. This program was first used during the 1997 Asian crisis.

The program might be used in Iceland, which has seen major problems hitting the financial sector. Iceland has been forced to nationalize the three largest banks and, most recently, Kaupthing Bank.

The IMF chief made these remarks in Washington D.C. on Thursday, as top officials from IMF nations and the G-7 industrialized countries are gathering for meetings on economic issues. U.S. President George Bush is set to meet with G-7 finance ministers at the White House on Saturday.

Body of missing Florida girl found

Sunday, April 17, 2005

The body of Sarah Lunde, a missing 13-year-old Florida girl, was found very close to her home Saturday, authorities said.

Lunde’s body was found by a search-and-rescue dog in an abandoned fish farm about a half-mile away from her home, according to David Gee, sheriff of Hillsborough County. Lunde had been missing since last Sunday from her home in Ruskin, a town to the south of Tampa.

Gee said the body had a green cast on one arm, just as Sarah did. “The green cast is apparent,” he said. He also stated that the body had been in the water for a long period of time, and that an autopsy would be performed to determine the cause of Lunde’s death.

“The family is very distraught,” Gee added.

According to CNN, David Onstott, 36, was charged late Saturday night with first-degree murder Gee said. “He is the defendant.”,Onstott confessed to the murder.He was arrested on Tuesday on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Aside from a 1995 sexual assault charge, Onstott is said to have been sighted at Lunde’s house hours after Lunde disappeared, and grabbed a half-empty beer bottle as he left. This could possibly link him to the numerous beer bottles found around the area, which, it is rumored, will be subjected to DNA testing. Onstott was also arraigned on Thursday on charges of not registering as a sex offender and is currently being held in the Hillsborough County Jail. Although his bond was set at $250,000, sheriff’s spokesman J.D. Callaway stated that since no bond was set on a Michigan drunk driving warrant Onstott is also being held for, there is no bond set on him for his various other charges, so Onstott is being held without bond for the moment.

This case is now the second such case in a month. Jessica Lunsford‘s body was found in Citrus County, north of Tampa, after she had been missing from her home for three weeks.

Convicted sex offender John E. Couey, who had been living near Lunsford’s home, was arrested and charged with her murder after he confessed.

Why You Should Buy Wholesale Clothing For Yourself?

Why You Should Buy Wholesale Clothing For Yourself?

By Randy Mark

With prices of clothing soaring sky high these days, the best alternative for all those people who simply love to dress up in the latest trends is wholesale clothing. Everyone needs clothing and no one can do without ever buying any clothes. Most of us have to shop within a budget nowadays, and wholesale clothing allows you to get clothes in such cheap rates that you can easily stay within your budget. Wholesale clothes are available for men, women, kids, teenagers and even older people. You might think that just because it is wholesale clothing, the clothes won’t have the same variety that you will find in boutiques or branded stores; but you are absolutely wrong.

Wholesale clothing covers every kind of style and range of clothes including jeans, pants, shirts, t-shirts, skirts, blouses, jackets, hoodies. You name it and they have got just the things you need. So what other factors compel you to buy wholesale clothing besides the reduced prices they are offering? We will take a look at the reasons why you should buy wholesale clothing for yourself.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MExgf6mwdU[/youtube]

First of all, the prices that wholesalers are offering for wholesale clothing are ridiculously low. You will be surprised when you see the rates, and they are definitely going to encourage you to make a purchase.

Secondly, when you buy clothing which is offered at such a low rate, it makes it easier to follow trends and keep up with fashion. Imagine if you buy yourself a striped shirt, which is made by a designer, or perhaps is branded, and the design of the shirt goes out of fashion in a few months; you will still have to continue wearing the shirt because you spent a lot of money on it and you can’t just keep it aside to keep up with new trends. Well, believe it or not, wholesale clothing allows you to follow all the trends because the clothes cost so little that it won’t hurt you too much if you wear the clothing you buy for just a few months and then decide to buy yourself something else.

Besides all these factors, wholesalers have started selling clothes online as well. Buying wholesale clothing was never easier. Now you can check out the latest stocks of clothing that wholesalers have, without having to leave the comfort of your own. You simply have to open up their website to see what is new. Ordering online has become so simple and some companies don’t even require the payment of a membership fee if you are ordering from them. This is another benefit because you end up saving money through this as well. What is beneficial about these online companies is that they have learnt to serve large retail clients as well as individuals who want to buy for them. Usually their minimum order quantity is comfortable for you and the rates at which they sell clothing to retailers, apply to individual buyers as well. You will probably find the same thing in some retail outlets at a higher price, so it is always better to get the clothes at a cheaper rate from a wholesaler.

These were the simple benefits you will gain if you start buying clothing from wholesalers. It is highly recommended for shopaholics since they do tend to go overboard with their spending. With the holiday season just around the corner, these wholesalers are a good option to buy that outfit for the Christmas parties you will have to attend, and all the New Year’s celebrations that you have planned when the year ends. Start looking for what you want to buy, and you will be surprised with the options that are open to you.
