From the local press. In a move of the utmost national and geostrategic importance, Athens is deploying forces in the region. By an official decision of the Governmental National Security Council (KYSEA), Greece is sending a total of two Navy frigates to Cyprus. Among them is the ultra-modern "...

Re: DIY wills

If it is with the courts you are safer, if it is with the lawyer and you outlive him or his buisness then you have a problem and even if all is well and he is still in buisness your executor will have to attend the courts. Also you would need to trust the lawyer if he keeps the will as if he has ha...

That is the one Trev posted, in my opinion the way they where holding it and throwing it suggest the turtle was alive.

Re: Turtle Shame

From what I read it was already dead, and they were just playing with the corpse. So at least the turtle didn't actually suffer at their hands. They certainly deserve to be punished though. Looking at the video , the men pull back a couple of times when they went to pick it up, as thou the turtle w...

No words to describe what happened to that poor turtle, I hope those who carried out this vile act get the full force of the law thrown at them.
