Actually, my wife is not a soothsayer but she heard that on nippon tv, jsut the day after the 1st seism. Some scientist (or journalist) said a 2nd important seism very often happens 25-26 days after the 1st one.
UN split on Israel`s role in Gaza incursion
April 7, 2011
NEW YORK/JERUSALEM: The UN has roundly rebuffed remarks by the South African judge Richard Goldstone that cast doubt on the report into the Gaza war that bears his name, causing rifts within the UN and furious debate across the Middle East.
In the first public sign of a split within the four-person committee that compiled the report into the Israeli attack on Gaza in December 2008, Pakistani human rights lawyer Hina Jilani has openly contradicted Goldstone`s comments. In an interview with the Middle East Monitor, she said that the UN report still stood.
“No process or acceptable procedure would invalidate the UN report; if it does happen, it would be seen as a suspect move. The UN cannot allow impunity to remain, and will have to act if it wants to remain a credible international governing body,” she said.
Jilani sat with Goldstone on the fact-finding mission that looked into allegations of war crimes committed by both Israel and Hamas during the three-week war. The other two members of the committee, Christine Chinkin and Desmond Travers, could not be reached for comment.
Goldstone made his remarks in an article in the Washington Post in which he said that he regretted aspects of the report that he chaired, including the suggestion that Israel had intentionally targeted civilians. Had he been aware of evidence that had since come to light, he wrote, “the Goldstone report would have been a different document”.
In a further indication of his U-turn, the Israeli paper, Yediot Ahronot, said the judge planned to press for his report to be nullified.
The report, published in September 2009, found that Israelis involved in the Gaza war should face “individual criminal responsibility” for potential war crimes. Some 1,400 Palestinians died, at least 50 per cent of whom were civilians, and 13 Israelis.
But the inquiry was carried out without Israeli co-operation, and information uncovered by Israel`s own investigations since then had changed his understanding of events, Goldstone said.
Cedric Sapey, spokesman for the UN human rights council that commissioned the report, said: “The UN will not revoke a report on the basis of an article in a newspaper. The views Mr Goldstone expressed are his own personal views.”
Israel has leapt on the Goldstone article, arguing it proves that the original UN report was flawed. The interior minister, Eli Yishai, said he had contacted Goldstone to thank him. “As a Jew, he understands well the story of the Jewish people`s suffering,” he told Israeli army radio.
An Israeli official said the government would now try to get a re-evaluation of the report as well as “asking our legal experts to see how it affects the legal harassment” of Israeli politicians and officers, particularly in the UK.
The human rights council has recommended the UN general assembly passes the Gaza report to the Security Council with the aim of referring both Israel and Hamas to the international criminal court for alleged war crimes. Any such move would almost certainly be blocked by the US, which has the power of veto.
The Palestinian ministry of foreign affairs said Goldstone`s intervention was immaterial. “Nothing in Justice Goldstone`s personal comments changes the essential need to provide the victims of the assault on the Gaza Strip with access to justice.”
Khalil Shiqaqi, a Palestinian political scientist, said it was clear that no one had read exactly what Judge Goldstone had written. “The Israelis think that Goldstone has overturned what was written in his report and the Palestinians have taken their cue from them. What he has actually done is slightly modified his controversial view that Israel had deliberately targeted civilians. Very few people among the international community or non-governmentable bodies said the same thing. If he retracted one thing, there was much he did not retract, such as Israel`s deliberate destruction of houses in the Gaza Strip.”

An idiot in Alphen a/d Rijn, the Netherlands killed 6 and injured many more, after that he killed himself. He opened fire in a mall with a machine-gun :S

Here is the BBC news, Netherlands shooting: Gunman kills five in Dutch mall.
It's almost a miracle he didn't kill more people in that time he was shooting, 10 to 15 minutes.

everyone from the western country is always pulling this word "racism" when they hear about us talking about gypsies but have you tried living next to them? you wouldn't be such a smartass then...i am not a racist, but someone who takes a piss in the middle of the street and teaches his children to do so, should go back to the forrest...and that's by far not the worst they do, trust me :)
most of EU states are racist in this area (not we are) !! We are living with them, we teach them !how to live! we are helping them no matter that they will never pay it back to society !!
EU states are returning them, they dont want allow them to live in western EU, they are so much frightened of them that they will rather deny all human rights and send them back...
That is poor true about racism in europe my friend !!!

I hope you know what positive discrimination is !
I show you some example of racism in Slovakia in gypsy issues:
this is what they made with their old living place:
and here are new container flats in a month built for them
everyone from another country (especially some Scandinavian human rights organizations) who is speaking, we are discriminating this community, have to be forced to take care for at least one complete family consists of 15-20 members for his own costs...

The upper picture seems to me like a gas blast or something. That could be caused by anything.
