Discussions between Iceland and Japan on the exportation of Icelandic whale meat to Japan are continuing, despite protests against Iceland’s decision last year to resume commercial whaling. Negotiators on the team are hoping that an agreement will be reached by next spring.
Iceland is eager to conclude the negotiations as soon as possible so that they can start planning next year’s whaling season which starts next June.
If an agreement is signed, Icelandic whalers may be able to sell some of their catch to Japan, most likely the meat from fin whales.
Although Iceland’s government recently suspended all whaling operations, Gudfinnsson said this was a purely market-driven decision. The government, he said, will most likely set whale-hunting quotas once again provided that “we can sell our products.”
According to Gudfinnsson, Iceland’s policy of continuing whaling is “unchanged”. Since the demand for while meat exists in Japan, whaling is likely to begin if an agreement between the two countries can be reached.
Merry Christmas to all… and to all a good night.
Nothing seems to be easier than seeing someone whom you can help but not helping.
I suggest we start giving it a try. Give love to the ones that need it.
God will appreciate it.
^WTF? Where did all the spam come from?
Perhaps Iceland should hunt, harpoon, dry, and export these spam loosers. I’m sure there wouldn’t be any outcry or controversy if that happened.

Go-Jamaica hosts marketing seminar on power of the Internet
Put the power of the Internet to work in your business” was the slogan used in The Gleaner Online’s third annual Internet marketing seminar, held at the newspaper’s North Street central Kingston offices yesterday.
Dr Felix Akinladejo, lecturer of Internet marketing at the University of Technology (UTech), as well as managers, students, entrepreneurs, representatives from advertising agencies and marketing consultants, were in attendance.
“Internet marketing is the field of marketing or advertising a business on the World Wide Web. Because the Internet is so dynamic and is always changing, it is important that you keep up to date with the developments and designs that will enhance your web presence,” said Hope McMillan, project manager of The Gleaner Online and seminar presenter.
Participants for the over-subscribed seminar discussed an array of Internet marketing issues around how to expand your online reach and how the Internet can work for your business.
Marketing solution
The Gleaner Online team took the time to walk participants through various types of Internet marketing solutions, in particular, ad formats and properly utilising websites.
Based on a survey conducted after the seminar, the attendees expressed satisfaction with the venue, the information given, the length and way the information was presented and the level of interaction between the presenter and the audience.
“I’m sorry I came so late. The information was good and it cleared up many areas of concern,” said one individual.
The Gleaner Online’s Internet Marketing Seminar 2008, was considered by all a huge success.
Because of the large number of registrants, some could not be accommodated. However, another seminar of this nature will be held soon.
Hey!
I just checked out The Rasmus new Fan Page on Facebook where you can play the latest tunes from the BLACK ROSES album…
The fifth song “Your Forgiveness” is so much better than the “Livin’ In A World Without You” single… don’t you agree?
I know everyone has different tastes and all, but seriously,
the fifth song definitely sounds better than the first!
