It wasn’t until after Patch waltzed on to the 6:49 a.m

DUBLIN (AP) – When Patch hopped aboard the train to Dublin, it took the power of Twitter to reunite the dog with his owner. Irish Rail sent a “Lost dog!” tweet with a photo attachment after the Jack Russell terrier arrived with Wednesday morning commuters on a train from rural Kilcock, County Kildare, an hour’s ride away. After more than 500 retweets in just 32 minutes, the photo found Patch’s owner, Deirdre Anglin, who tweeted the state railway: “That’s my dog!” The episode underscored the ubiquitous use of mobile-friendly social media sites in Ireland, a tech-savvy corner of Europe where cell phones were the norm long before they were in the United States.

It wasn’t until after Patch waltzed on to the 6:49 a.m. commuter train in Kilcock that the alarm was sounded. Rail workers on board dubbed the dog Checker, joking he might be trained to inspect people’s tickets, as commuters took turns petting the friendly dog.

(AP) PYONGYANG, North Korea – Mickey Mouse and Winnie the Pooh took the stage in North Korea during a concert for new leader Kim Jong Un, in an unusual performance featuring Disney characters

(AP) PYONGYANG, North Korea – Mickey Mouse and Winnie the Pooh took the stage in North Korea during a concert for new leader Kim Jong Un, in an unusual performance featuring Disney characters. Performers dressed as Minnie Mouse, Tigger and 텍사스 홀덤 확률 표 others danced and pranced as footage from “Snow White,” “Dumbo,” “Beauty and the Beast” and other Disney movies played on a massive backdrop, according to still photos shown on state TV. The inclusion of characters popular in the West — particularly from the United States, North Korea’s wartime enemy — is a notable change in direction for performances in Pyongyang. Actors and actresses also showed off new wardrobes, including strapless gowns and little black dresses. In recent years, performances such as the “Arirang” mass games featured performers dressed as panda bears in homage to North Korean ally China. This appears to be the first time Disney characters have been included in a major performance, though Winnie the Pooh and Mickey Mouse have been popular among children for several years. Backpacks, pencil cases and pajamas imported from China often feature Disney characters, and stories such as “Dumbo” have been translated into Korean for North Korean schoolchildren. However, it is unusual to make such images a central part of a North Korean performance, and to publicize it on state TV. It was unclear whether the Disney characters...

The report said at least 25 people were killed, but others were missing

(CBS/AP) BEIRUT – A video emerged Friday showing more than a dozen bloodied corpses in Syria, some of them piled on top of each other and 동두천출장샵 in military uniforms, in what the government said was a “massacre” by rebels in the northern province of Aleppo. The circumstances of the killings were not immediately clear. But in the video — which could not be independently verified — the narrator said the dead were members of the “shabiha,” or pro-regime gunmen. Syria’s state-run news agency, SANA, said terrorist groups had killed and mutilated at least 25 people in Daret Azzeh, a rebel-held area in the Aleppo countryside.

All day Friday, tens of thousands of supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood poured into Tahrir Square despite the searing 100 degree heat

Egypt is experiencing the biggest protests since last year when President Hosni Mubarak was forced out of office. All day Friday, tens of thousands of supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood poured into Tahrir Square despite the searing 100 degree heat. The tension is rising.

And 증평출장마사지 they turned out in force to send a message to the ruling generals. “We will not leave this place until we achieve what we want until we achieve our freedom,” said one demonstrator.

The ballots from last weekend’s vote have been tallied, and the winner should have been announced yesterday. But there has been no official announcement. Instead, Egypt’s election commission said it needs time to investigate charges of fraud from both sides. That has the Brotherhood’s supporters in the square worried that the generals are working behind the scenes to make sure their party doesn’t win. Just last week, the Supreme Court dissolved the parliament where the Muslim Brotherhood held a majority. Today,...
