extremists
-- A Syrian insurgent brigade held responsible "extremists" for a grisly slaughter now gone popular on the Online, and it promised to give a punishment the criminals.
Hossam al Sarmani, a spokesperson for the No cost Syrian Army's Daoud Brigade in north Syria, said criminal revolutionaries performed the murders in Idlib region.
"This performance did take position, and this is the heinous fact," al Sarmani informed CNN on Saturday. "We will find them, catch them and keep them in a jail until they can by tried by worldwide law or the new Syrian law, God willing."
The horrible movie appeared Saturday on the Online.
In it, an equipped list of upset men appear to power less sized list of terrified disarmed men to the floor. They scream at them and conquer them, and start flame with automated guns until their systems go inactive.
Before undertaking the performance, the gunmen scream at them: "You pets of Assad!" The poster of it clip said the video was recorded in the city of Saraqeb after rebels overran a govt outpost.
The resistance Syrian Observatory for Individual Privileges said "rebel fighters" curved up and summarily implemented more than eight army." It said the rebels also "physically misused the affected individuals before the slaughter, throwing them regularly."
But al Sarmani -- whose Daoud Brigade is one device in 6,000-member coalition in the Idlib landscapes known as the Scam Falcons -- said the assailants have no relationship to the FSA rebels.
He said that rebels did indeed battle govt army in a raid at a army outpost. In that battling, rebels murdered army, and six to eight soldiers gave up.
He said the rebels innovative to another aspect of the outpost during situations and remaining the gave up army behind. The "extremists" appeared, obviously from Saraqeb and close by Trambee.
These criminal gunmen took to be able to attack the disarmed inmates, al Sarmani said.
"At this factor, an unusual list of about 20 men joined among us. We did not know them, but we identified they were from Saraqeb and the encompassing city of Trambee. They were revolutionaries, too, but they were extremists."
He said the "extremists" remaining and govt warplanes shelled the place, pushing the rebels to getaway and keep the systems behind. The Observatory said rebels had murdered at least 28 govt army in battling in the city Friday.
On Saturday, Saraqeb dropped into insurgent arms, after the last govt gate had been vanquished, the Observatory said. Having the city would allow resistance martial artists to management the primary road to Aleppo, which operates through the city.
"You can't think about how saddened we are by this criminal activity," al Sarmani said of the slaughter.
"We were satisfied with relieving this outpost. This is not the actions of Daoud Brigade, and we will always be saddened and disrupted by this tale. But we will not remain with our arms linked behind our returning. We will see these men and they will experience rights," he said.
Mahmoud Bakur, an capitalist in Saraqeb, reprehended the activities and also said they were performed by extremists.

Unfortunately this could be the newest in a sequence of recorded conclusion accomplishments by resistance groups as well as by govt causes and categories associated with them, such as the Shabiha," a spokesperson for the U.N. Great Commissioner for Individual Privileges said.
"We were willing to do anything that delivers equity, equal rights, and independence. We works with UN or anyone else to accomplish this objective. Without getting training from anyone we have already started our own research."
Rafif Jouejati, a speaker for the resistance Regional Sychronisation Committees of Syria, said "crimes are crimes" and her team doesn't excuse "any criminal offenses against humankind."
"However, if this criminal activity was dedicated by the equipped resistance, we still cannot evaluate it to the Assad regime's everyday and ongoing bombardment of private areas; widespread detention and personal of activists, comfort relief employees, and doctors; and methodical terrorism of all areas across the nation."

A new package handling center will start in Chorley in fall 2013.
Two new depots will start in Cornwall and Hampshire while nine current depots will be extended or shifted to bigger sites over the next four decades.
But the Interaction Employees Partnership said Elegant Mail's employees would not increase, due to job failures elsewhere.
Royal Email has cut about 65,000 tasks since 2002 as it efforts to modernise.
'Profitable growth'
The newest move is aspect of Elegant Mail's way to grow its packages company in the UK and offshore.
In the last financial season, it included 48% of complete earnings, taking out the Publish Office.
The UK show packages market is currently worth £5.8bn a season or 1.1 billion dollars items.
"Our technique is to turn the development of package amounts into successful development. That means becoming a much more customer-focused organization being run on professional collections and making an investment in new, important technological innovation," said Moya Greene, Elegant Email us president.
Employment Reverend Level Hoban said: "It is very great information that 1,000 new tasks will be designed across the nation as a result of this financial commitment. We've now got a history number of individuals in career and these tasks will provide welcome possibilities for individuals who are looking for work."

Police elections: Welsh ballot paper decision 'shambolic'
Arrangements for next month's cops and criminal activity elections in Wales have been known as a "shambles" after it appeared an approximated £350,000 value of ballots documents are likely to be destroyed.
Peers accepted programs to create multilingual ballots in both Welsh and British on Thursday, 48 time before a due date for delivering out mailing ballots in Wales.
Ballots published only in British will now have to be tossed away.
Labour said countless numbers had been invested on "creating spend paper".
But ministers said it was not unmatched for identical legal purchases to be accepted soon before elections and the same had occurred in the run-up to this years common selection.
Voters will go to the forms across Britain and Wales on 15 Nov to opt cops and criminal activity commissioners to substitute current hired cops govt bodies.
Ministers said they were dedicated to guaranteeing "full parity" between British and Welsh dialects on poll documents in Wales.
But Labor and Checked Cymru said it was absurd that the issue had come to Parliament for acceptance so delayed in the day and that ministers had originally designed to search for their acceptance in May.
"With the moving of this purchase, enabling the use of multilingual poll documents, the British poll documents already printed will be tossed away - £350,000 invested on developing spend document," said Labor fellow Master Touhig.
Lib Dem fellow Master Roberts said it was "a shambolic way" to perform any kind of selection. "The poll documents are expected to be going out within the next 48 time," he said. "It is beyond my understanding."
For the govt, Master Taylor said the price of the poll documents would be met from the £75m funds for the elections.
Earlier, at a conference of the Third Assigned Regulation Panel, monitoring reverend Damian Natural said that 2.3 thousand British terminology only poll documents would be "dealt with securely".
The Four Most Important Things I Have Ever Learned by WOW JV Partner, Beverly Lewis
One of the first blogs I started reading by a fellow speaker was John Spence. His March post with this same title was very thought–provoking and I determined right then and there to start a Lifepoint blog. It’s pretty hard to limit this list to 4 things, but here it is:
1. I don’t have to be right. Having the attitude of “I’m right and I’ll prove it” is definitely an obstacle in effective communication. Whether it’s dialogue with a co-worker or my spouse, when I am focused on being right, I don’t truly listen. I’m too busy thinking about my rebuttal to hear or respond well to them. (Warning – your pride will take a beating if you apply this lesson. But your relationships will improve with more effective communication. Pride – as in inflated ego is overrated anyway.)
2. Be real and be willing to confront an issue. Okay – I’ll admit it. I’m a pleaser. Like most characteristics, there are 2 sides to this. Indeed, I’m quite a diplomat and I excel at customer service. But as a leader, (“boss-lady”), there are times when direct confrontation is called for. I have found that a problem left to fester only gets worse with time – not better. So the ostrich’s approach of sticking his head in the sand is a sorry tactic and simply doesn’t work in business.
3. Take care of yourself – stress will eat you alive if you let it. None of us are indispensable – though we perceive ourselves to be. Rest, refuel, refresh and take time for family and friends.
4. The 80/20 rule is as certain as the law of gravity. Understanding the rule is critical. It prevents whining, resentment and bitterness. You simply can’t change people. Be thankful when you have the passion, vision and energy to do what others are unwilling to do. (That means you’ll have things they only dream of having.)
The Best is Yet to Come,
Beverly

Time to Move into International Stocks by Bonnie Gortler
The stock market is off to a good beginning in 2012. Within the setting of the market rally there have been some shifts in the relative performance of different areas of the market that have taken place since the start of the year. Utilities and consumer staples, which were strong last year, have been out of favor so far. The international sector was hit hard last year, but this formerly weak area of the stock market has been improving in relative strength on both a short and intermediate term basis.
One of our favorites is the iShares Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM) which is one of the most popular ETFs for gaining exposure to the emerging market area. EEM holds stocks in ten of the world’s largest emerging markets, with its three biggest weightings being China (17%) Brazil (15%) and South Korea (15%) as of 12/31/11. It also holds stocks in Taiwan, South Africa, Russia, India, Mexico, Malaysia, and Indonesia. Top holdings and sector breakdown can be found on the iShares website http://bit.ly/yHtp5V
The chart below shows that after being weaker than the S&P 500 Index for much of 2011 a shift in strength has taken place, with EEM stronger than the S&P 500 Index for the past month. Moreover, EEM has crossed above its 200-day moving average, and has bested its high from last October. All of these developments are bullish, both for emerging markets in particular and for global stock markets generally.Figure: iShares Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM), daily (top half), and relative strength of EEM versus the S&P 500 SPDR (bottom half). Notice that EEM has crossed above its 200-day moving average for the first time since last July. The level of this moving average, $42.39, is now a support zone. EEM is now also higher than its October high point.The bottom half shows that emerging markets (EEM) were weaker than the S&P 500 (SPY) starting from August 1 through early January. However, that trend has reversed itself, as evidenced by the trendline break on January 13, 2012.
Another ETF that can be used for an international representation is the iShares MSCI EAFE Index ETF (EFA). The benchmark EAFE Index for this ETF represents mainly large-cap stocks from developed countries outside of North America. The top three countries in this ETF are United Kingdom 22.7% Japan 21.17% and France 8.7%. The top 3 sectors are 22.56% financials 12.7% industrials and 10.8% consumer services. More details about the top holdings as of 2/1/11 along with the sector breakdown can be found at: http://bit.ly/A9f8gm.
Figure: iShares MSCI EAFE Index ETF (EFA) weekly, and relative strength versus the S&P 500 SPDR.
Top clip: The price of EFA remains below its October 2011 peak, unlike emerging markets (EEM) or SPY.
Middle clip: The relative strength between EFA and SPY has been in a downtrend since October 2009.
Bottom clip: The MACD of the relative strength is far below zero, suggesting that EFA has the potential to recover some ground lost relative to the S&P 500.
This ETF has been under pressure and in a down trend since late April, 2011, losing 12.25% in 2011 including dividends. The relative strength chart pattern is long-term oversold on a weekly chart and is therefore in position for a meaningful rally to occur. (See chart above.) As with EEM, the short term down trend in relative strength compared to the S&P 500 was broken on a daily and intermediate term basis in January.
Investors wishing to invest in foreign markets can use a combination of the iShares Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM) and the EAFE Index ETF (EFA). We have recently increased our foreign equity exposure for clients.
