Today's snap is of the lovely little island of Cyprus in the city of Larnaca. The news stories I'm posting links to today are a real mixed bag. All of them made me go "Wow" or "Hmmmm".
This story, if I'm reading correctly - I really need more coffee, is about those little maps that airlines have on board for passengers showing where the plane is on the globe. Folks who don't live in this region may not be aware of all the discussion about 'The Gulf.' I never even knew about it let alone thought about it until I moved to this region. At any rate, I'm not sure why the country in question (ie their transport ministry) is taking this stand. The article in The Gulf News is interesting, but it will be even more interesting to see how folks react to it.
I'm posting this because I know that many of my readers will be interested in this but might not be aware of it. The times they are a changin'.
This article just makes me so very sad. I was raised believing that governments should protect and serve the needs of their people. Yes, governments can take many shapes and forms - I know I feel safe where I live. But, I mean really, is NK government really protecting and serving the needs of its people? I think not.
Time to find some more coffee.
Peace.
