Haven't blogged in a while, but this is something I had to post.
Delegates at the Johannesburg Earth Summit, aimed at ending famine and starvation, are gorging on mountains of lobster, oysters and fillet steak and sipping vintage wines and champagne.

French Mayor Bans Residents from Dying
This is not a joke.
"The mayor of a French Mediterranean town, faced with a cemetery "full to bursting," has banned local residents from dying until he can find somewhere else to bury them."

There has been a great deal of hoo-ha over airlines slashing their ticket fares. It isn't as simple as it seems. To avail of the discounted fare you need to book 21 days in advance.
