World terrorism

The month of July has been particularly violent and we've had our share of bombings. All our thoughts turn to the people of London and Sharm el Sheikh and all those who lost loved ones, friends, and colleagues.
Karim Elsahy, 26, has been trying to find a peaceful breakthrough in what is evolving to be a tense and unstable situation. He's taking part in the organization of a peaceful meeting to protest against violence.  You can find more details on his blog. [http://www.onearabworld.blog.com/]. Anyone can take part in the candlelight sitting that will hopefully attract the world's attention.

Cookie and Canada

A Blog.com user emailed us to let us know he'd enjoy having a Feature Blog at Blog.com and since it wasn't the first time we were hearing this request, we decided to start off with yet another good habit today.

And our first feature blog is that of the user himself who emailed us. He signs his posts <=->, and ironizes about astronomers and astrologers. He obviously is a music addict and is an active part of a band. Readers, behold, welcome to http://cookie.blog.com/

On the other hand, our feature snap (see below) goes to Sophie, in her album labeled St Jérôme.  Congratulations !
