William Salice, creator of Kinder Surprise eggs, dies at 83
Sunday, January 1, 2017 On Thursday, William Salice, credited with creating Kinder Surprise eggs, died at age 83 in Pavia, Italy because of a stroke, according to his foundation “Color Your Life Campus”. Salice had worked with the businessman Michele Ferrero in the 1960s, the creator of the Nutella cream and owner of Ferrero Rocher. Ferrero died in 2015. In 1974, Kinder Surprise was launched with plastic toys, which are sold within the eggs to surprise children. Due to this, the sale of Kinder eggs is prohibited in the US. A 1938 US law prohibits the sale of food containing objects in its interior. It is also prohibited in Chile, due to an obesity-reduction law brought in last year. Last year a three-year-old girl died in France, swallowing the plastic toy. In 2007, after his retirement, Salice founded Color Your Life Campus from his retirement bonus of €400,000 in Italy.…

Click Here To Know More About: Marc Ching Foreclosure Pets: Throwing the Puppy out With the Mortgage by Karrie Rose The six-bedroom, four-bath home in South Florida looked much like the other expensive homes emptied because of foreclosure, with one difference. A Labrador Retriever was left in the large, fully fenced backyard, pawing an empty water bowl. Luckily, neighbors heard “Buddy” whining and called the SPCA, saving him from the slow starvation that had already dropped him to 55 pounds from his former 70. Buddy was just one victim of a silent wave of cruelty sweeping the nation as spiking interest rates have ousted people from their homes. All over the nation, people who have had their houses taken by the bank are relocating. The problem that rescuers see is that they are relocating without taking their pets or, at the very least, surrendering them to a local shelter.”It’s horrific”,…

Monday, November 15, 2010 Three pirates were killed late Friday during a presumed attack in error, while other pirates successfully hijacked the Yuan Xiang, a Panamanian-flagged vessel with an all-Chinese crew, and a media embargo was lifted regarding the release of a British couple whose yacht was seized more than a year ago over the weekend. At 11 p.m. on Friday a Kenyan patrol vessel was near Kilifi in Kenyan coastal waters “when four suspected Somali pirates on board a speed boat climbed the vessel, mistaking it for a merchant vessel,” according to Kenyan Defence Department spokesman Bogita Ongeri. He said three were shot dead but the fourth “dived into the sea with bullet wounds during the scuffle,” and is thought to have died. The speed boat with more pirates on board fled, the three bodies were taken to Coast General Hospital, Mombassa. Ongeri promised more details after discussions with…
Senior UK politicians talk at Confederation of British Industry conference
Monday, November 21, 2016 UK Prime Minister Theresa May and opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn both spoke at the annual Confederation of British Industry conference today, talking about Britain after its planned ‘Brexit’ from the European Union, and future plans for business. May formally announced plans to cut corporation tax from 20%, without giving details, in order to discourage businesses from leaving the UK post-Brexit. Corbyn said in his speech he believes investment by the government on things such as infrastructure improvements is shared ground between Labour and businesses but “businesses will need to contribute” meaning “some increase in corporation tax” under his administration. Theresa May also toned down plans to put ordinary workers on corporate boards, a campaign promise from running to become leader of the ruling Conservative Party. She said she is working to create a “model that works for everyone” after consulting firms and the general public, with…

2012 Report on Gender Equality and Development says US women have room for progress
Friday, September 27, 2013 Tuesday, World Bank released the 2012 World Development Report on Gender Equality and Development. The United States is referred to many times, often as a benchmark to foster understanding of recent gains for women in other parts of the globe.

They are under-represented at the highest level of business, with only 28 of Fortune 1000 companies having a female chief executive officer. The bottom 20% of women economically have a slightly higher birth rate than their peers in…
