Over all Review of Samsung Galaxy Y Duos Lite Black
Overall Review
Samsung has launched the Galaxy Y Duos Lite in the Indian market, which happens to be the 5th dual-SIM Android smartphone to be launched by the company in India. The smartphone is primarily aimed at consumers interested in purchasing a budget smartphone with decent features. Samsung Galaxy Y Duos Lite has dimensions of 58 x 103.5 x 12 mm, and features a 2.8-inch LCD Capacitive Touchscreen, which though not impressive, but is still acceptable in a budget smartphone. The slim form of the phone measures only 11.9mm in thickness, making it comfortable to hold in your hand. The smartphone runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread, with Samsung's proprietary TouchWiz skin pasted on top, and is powered by a powerful 832MHz single-core processor. It also sports a 2-megapixel primary camera which comes with features such as Fixed Focus, Exposure Metering, White Balance, Photo Effects, Multi-shot Mode, 2x Zoom, etc. The 2MP camera is also capable of video recording @15fps, taking video of resolution 320 x 240 pixels. Wi-Fi connectivity is offered so that you can take advantage of fast internet connections. Other connectivity options include Bluetooth 3.0 HS and USB 2.0 support. While Samsung is offering 4GB internal memory capacity with the Galaxy Y Duos Lite, you also get an 8GB microSD card free of cost. A powerful 1,200 mAh battery gives you great battery life: talk time up to 920min and stand-by time up to 410 hours.
User Interface and UI functionality
Samsung Galaxy Y Duos Lite comes with Android 2.3 Gingerbread so you can be assured of an excellent user interface that is simple to use and exceedingly user-friendly. In addition, Samsung has pasted its proprietary TouchWiz skin on top of the Android OS, which also enhances the UI of the handset. You get access to a wide range of applications, games, live wallpapers, etc. from the Play Store. The user interface of the Galaxy Y Duos Lite comes loaded with features like Organizer, Voice memo/dial, Calendar, Clock, Alarm and Calculator. Also, predictive text input really helps while typing in the on-screen virtual keypad.

Samsung is offering 4GB of internal memory storage with the Galaxy Y Duos Lite, while you can expand memory capacity up to 32GB using a microSD card. In a promotional offer, Samsung is also offering an 8GB microSD card free of cost with the purchase of the phone.
Applications and Gaming
With the Google Play Store at your disposal, you really cannot ask for a bigger variety of applications and games to choose from. Although there may be many applications and games that won't be supported on the phone, not only because its only a budget-smartphone with average features, but also because its runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread, which, in today's times of Ice Cream Sandwich smartphones, is a bit outdated.
Battery Backup
The phone is powered by a powerful 1,200 mAh Li-Ion battery that gives amazing battery life: talk time up to 920min and stand-by time up to 410 hours. In order to conserve battery life, disable Wi-Fi and 3G when not in use.

It comes with Bluetooth 3.0 HS and also supports USB 2.0 connectivity. Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n connectivity is supported at 2.4GHz. Samsung Galaxy Y Duos Lite is 3G-enabled, letting you take advantage of high-speed mobile networks. Of course, GPRS/EDGE connectivity is also provided.
Micromax had launched a similar phone during end-2011, which occupies the same price-range as Samsung Galaxy Y Duos Lite: the Micromax A75. Perhaps the most significant difference between Samsung Galaxy Y Duos Lite and the Micromax A75 is that while the former is a dual-SIM handset, the latter is a single-SIM GSM-only handset. Other than that, there exist some major differences between the two phones. The Micromax A75 features a much bigger 3.75-inch TFT capacitive touchscreen. It also features a better 3.15-megapixel camera with LED flash, along with a VGA secondary camera at the front. However, its processor is less powerful compared to that of the Galaxy Y Duos Lite- 650MHz, compared to the latter's 832MHz. Most of the other features are common between the two phones, both feature 3G and Wi-Fi connectivity and decent multimedia features.

Syntax for specifying "structured" fo property values
The current XSL WD has very little to say about the syntax that is to be used for specifying the values of non-simple properties. In fact, the only thing I could find in the entire spec is the example given in 3.6 for the space properties: space-before.minimum="2.0pt" space-before.maximum="4.0pt" ... But what about other structured properties? For example, what about play-during? If the value is a simple URL, the syntax seems obvious: play-during="http://www.foo.com/bar.au" What if I want to specify the "mix" or "repeat" modifiers as well? I suppose I could extend the pattern used by space: play-during.url="http://www.foo.com/bar.au" play-during.mix="true" But since the modifiers are optional, does this mean that "play-during" and "play-during.url" should both be allowed as attribute names in the XSL result tree? And what about the font property? It seems that there is no way to specify this without the use of nested quotation marks: font="12pt/14pt 'Times New Roman', serif" -Steve Schafer XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list

Architect Irving Morrow designed the Golden Gate Bridge, and he chose its color. The three popular bridge colors of the day -- black, gray, and silver, wouldn't cut it.

He leads me beside still waters
ps 23:2
ACCORDING TO THE RULES: Eric Liddell, affectionately known as the Flying Scotsman, won a gold medal in the 400-meter race during the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris. Yes, it was a spectacular race that resulted in a world record. Why then, nearly forty years after his death, was it Eric Liddell who inspired a film about his victory in these Olympic Games in Paris? The answer is simple: Eric Liddell refused to run on a Sunday. Eric captured the imagination of millions by tossing away his chance of a gold medal in the 100 meters, the race he was favored to win, because obedience to his Lord and Savior was more important to him than a gold medal. When Eric unexpectedly won the 400-meters, he became a living legend. A year after that triumph, Eric left the limelight to serve as a missionary in China. When he died in a Japanese internment camp 20 years later, all of Scotland mourned. Although we are not competing for a gold medal in the Olympic Games, competing according to the rules, God�s rules, is equally important to those of us who practice spiritual discipline. It is so easy for us to rationalize our rebellious, just as I�m sure it would have been easy for Eric Liddell to justify breaking the 4th Commandment for a sure shot at the gold. But God is not deceived, even by our most clever excuses. How do we rebel against God�s rules? Perhaps we use religious fervor as a substitute for the joyful obedience that pleases our Master. Today I would pray that our Christian convictions will matter more than any earthly reward. Pleasing God is the goal of those who practice the spiritual discipline. Today I pray pleasing the Master is our heart�s desire and that there is consistent action that gives substance to our words. He wasn�t a great leader, or an inspired thinker, but he knew what he ought to do, and he did it. Rev. A.P. Cullen.
1. Let us take note that Divine waters are Still waters.
Did you know that a dog will drink from a turbulent stream? A sheep will not. How well do you do when you are under stress? I talked with a man this week who said that if he were to be holy he would have to live out in the wilderness away from people. Maybe that is the way you like to handle stress. Get away from all people. We cannot live in the wilderness all the time. Jesus said �I pray not that you would take them out of the world but that You would keep them from the evil.� I have found that to face stress I need a quiet time with God each day. I see in this verse that still waters refer to that which is opposite to the roar and rush of a mountain stream. It speaks of peace in the place of the turmoil, rush and bustle of our modern world. Do you find your life filled with this? Many are sick today because they do not know the peace of God. Many are taking pills, listening to music, seeking worldly pleasures and buying toys to find peace. They would like to have peace with God, our self, our neighbor and mankind. Have we missed what it says here and in PS 119:165 �Great peace have they which love your law: and nothing shall offend them.� Here it says nothing, no thing, not any thing at all shall offend them. This means that when we have peace though the demons of hell shall come we will still have peace. RM 5:1 �Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Gresh & Zo were joined by Dan Shaughnessy to discuss the epic Red Sox collapse, the morning after they lose on a walkoff to the Baltimore Orioles, 4-3.
First and foremost, How did this happen?
What did Shaughnessy think of Jon Lester's performance on three days rest? Why was Ryan Lavarnway hitting with the bases loaded in the 9th inning of a must-win game for the Sox?
What was the clubhouse like after the Rays walked off to win the Wild Card?
And most important, will manager Terry Francona be back???
So much to answer, as the boys break it down with Shaughnessy.

Between this season and last, Glee lost some thirty percent of its viewing audience. That's quite a chunk of people abandoning ship. Right now I am part of the seventy percent that stayed. But I can honestly say I am eyeing the greener pastures of Glee-free living more and more with every episode. This week's snooze fest just about clinched it for me. Things will have to get better or I will be removing this once snarkly brilliant show from my DVR list. What has gone wrong: (more…)

NationalsTuesday, May 24th, 2011
Glee's season 2 is coming to an end tonight. Will they win Nationals? I honestly don't know. They lost last year in the Season finale, so it's not a shoo-in for national dominance. They'll be singing original songs again, including the one above. Apparently Charice, the singer who played Sunshine Corazon in two episodes (the girl Rachel sent to a crack house), will be back.
After last week's episode (during which I cried, by the way — in Starbucks, where I watched it online. Awk.) I'm interested in how Sue will figure into it. I hope they don't just backtrack and revert to her sabotaging them. It's been funny, but it's been 2 seasons– let's see something new.
What did you think about this season? What are your predictions for tonight's episode?

I used to watch every award show on TV, with the Academy Awards being my very favorite. These days, I catch so few movies when they're out in theatres, that the Academy Awards has lost a bit of its appeal. I still watch some of the Red Carpet before many of the awards shows, but about the only award show that I come close to watching in its entirety is the Emmys. In any given year I can be assured that I'll have seen far more of the TV shows nominated for an Emmy than movies nominated for Oscars.
The nominations came out this week for the 2010 Emmys, and I was very happy to see that second only to The Pacific (24 nominations) is Glee (19 nominations), with Mad Men (17 nominations) a close third. (more…)
Season FinalesSaturday, June 12th, 2010
This past week brought the season finales of two of my favorite — and very different — shows, Glee and Top Chef Masters. About half-way through the finale of Glee, I was beginning to feel some disappointment. I so wanted the show to go out on a high note for the summer.

Anonymous asked: I have ocd intrusive thoughts. I can't stop thinking that people are out to get me. I also can't stop thinking about my past. I know i'm a good person but I've made really bad mistakes and the guilt makes me feel terrible about myself. It's taking over my life. I just want to feel again.
First of all, no confessing to past mistakes! Confessing in this instance serves no good as it is a compulsion. The past is the past and cannot be changed, and it's important to both recognise and accept that in order to have a fulfilling life in the present.
Beating yourself up is paralysing; you're losing happy days in the present because you're living in a world that cannot be changed. You know you're a good person, which is a brilliant. Focus on that. Write down what traits you like about yourself and I'm sure it'll help you feel better.
As for what will help you let go of the past, I suggest reading about mindfulness. It's a brilliant way to start thinking in the present. :)
As for people being out to get you, I understand your concern, especially if people have let you down in the past. However social interaction is a part of life and to function we have to give people our trust until they prove themselves unworthy, otherwise again we paralyse ourselves and can potentially miss key opportunities in life.
Stay strong and keep me updated.
Anonymous asked: I've been betrayed recently. I feel really bad, I can hardly think straight. I feel like there's a pain in my chest, somewhere very deep inside, or like I'm drowning in the ocean, so dark and deep. It took me some time to get that it wasn't my fault and it hurts even more now. My Ocd spikes over and over, I try not to rethink every detail like - why? why people do things they do? :( but it hurts so much, like an actual pain
I'm a firm believer that emotional pain is equal to if not greater than physical pain. The worst part is if we handle things incorrectly with emotional pain and let it get to us then it takes an even greater hold and only gets worse. The flip side to that is if we handle our emotions correctly, we can control the pain and make it go away.
Betrayal is going to hurt anybody (and it's something that I think most of us have experienced) but naturally rumination only makes things worse. I've learned through experience though that if you maintain the belief that good people are out there, you'll eventually find them. I've been backstabbed by some of my closest 'friends' and hurt by people that I never expected to hurt me, but it helped me to heal to remind myself that not everybody was that way inclined.
I've now got a beautiful girlfriend and a wonderful friendship group, and I appreciate them all the more for what I've gone through. The exact same will happen to you. Just please don't make the mistake of generalising everybody as bad, because in doing so you'll let good people pass you by.
my-fitness-diary21 asked: Life is defiantly too short. Because of her i haven't been to one since. I dont know how i can not lose faith in people i mean whenever i have trusted its been shit and i have trusted a person with this weird counting thing i do with the numbers 3 like everything has to be done in threes and they have thrown it back in my face, i got thrown against a wall for it. Its horrible and i want it gone. And i dont know why but i actually do trust you. You're not a douchbag. Nicole :)
There was an ask just posted for you! :)
Thanks for the compliments, but there's sadly not much else I can say other than what I have already. A lot of overcoming what you're going through is in your hands even though it's not your fault you're suffering so much.
Stay strong and keep me updated.

Anonymous asked: I have harm OCD. I feel like no matter how well I feel one day and the fact that I'm not getting these intrusive thoughts as much anymore and I've improved a lot, there is always this fear in the back of my mind that one day years from now when I'm married with kids I'll just go all crazy and kill them all :( It's like my mind won't let me be happy or believe that I'll be okay one day...
It's because you're still not trusting yourself fully. Once you've reached a stage where you truly see these intrusives for what they are, that fear will die down. OCD is great about making us worry for the future, but it's just as irrational a worry as any other OCD thought.

What Does It Mean To Be Christlike?
Feb. 2, 2003
PHP 2:5 Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:
22 You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which
is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; 23 to be made new in the attitude of your minds;
24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
Eph. 4:22-24
Listen to this passage in The Message: �But you were taught to be made new in your
hearts, to become a new person. That new person is made to be like God -- made to be
truly good and holy.� Eph. 4:23-24
Max Lucado in his book, �Just Like Jesus� makes this statement at the beginning of his
book, and I thought it was powerful. Listen.
�God loves you just the way you are, but he refuses to leave you that way.
He wants you to be just like Jesus.�
This morning the Gospel Message is clear, it tells us that when we put our faith in Christ,
when we turn away from our sins and follow Jesus and become his disciple, there is
something Supernatural that happens within us, in our hearts that transforms our lives.
When we are saved we move from a state of Spiritual Death, to a glorious state of being
Alive in Christ through His Spirit. The Bible teaches us that the Very Spirit of Christ
takes residence in our lives and begins to teach us, begins to shape us, and helps us as we
walk in obedience to his leading.
This morning I want you to catch hold of the reality that Jesus Christ lives in you through
His Spirit if you are saved.
Have you ever thought about What if, for one day, Jesus were to become you?
What if for 24 hours, Jesus wakes up in your bed, walks in your shoes, lives in
your house, assumes your schedule? Your boss becomes his boss, your mother becomes
his mother, your pains becomes his pains? With one exception, nothing about your life
changes. Your health doesn�t change, Your circumstances don�t change, your schedule
isn�t altered. Your problems aren�t solved. Only one change occurs.
What if, for one day and one night, Jesus lives your life with His Heart?
Your heart gets the day off, and your life is led by the heart of Christ. His priorities
govern your actions. His passions drive your decisions. His love directs your behavior.
Can you imagine? What would you be like? Do you think people would notice a
change? Your family -- would they see something new? Your co-workers -- would they
think someone else had been hired? What about your friends? Would they detect more
Joy? What about your enemies? Would they receive more mercy from Christ�s heart than
from yours?
What about YOU? How would you feel with God�s heart in you? Would your
stress level go down? What about your temper?
Would you sleep better? Would you still dread what your dreading? Better than that,
would you still do what your doing?
Think about your schedule, what you have planned, With Jesus taking over your heart,
would anything change?
Can you see what your life might look like with Jesus leading your life? That picture that
you see, with Jesus leading your life is what God wants....... The Word says we are to
�think and act like Christ Jesus.� Another passage says, �to be like God in true
righteousness and holiness�.
Friends, God�s plan for you is nothing short of a new

SAN DIEGO (UPI) — A California woman has been given a traffic ticket for driving while wearing Google Glass.
Cecelia Abadie of Temecula was pulled over for speeding Tuesday evening by a California Highway Patrol officer in San Diego, U-T San Diego reported. She ended up with two tickets, including what is believed to be the first traffic citation for Google Glass use.
Abadie is one of about 10,000 people designated by Google as Explorers to test the high-tech glasses. They use a Bluetooth device to connect wearers to the Internet.
She said she was surprised by the ticket and said the officer did not mention Google Glass until he returned to her car after writing the speeding ticket.
"When he came back the second time, he asked me why I was wearing Google Glass very emphatically," she said. "I was surprised. I said, 'Well, it's not illegal, right?' And he said, 'Yes, it is illegal.' I was completely shocked."
Abadie said she has been wearing Google Glass all day and that the device does not interfere with vision if it is turned off.
Google in a statement said the glasses should be used responsibly: "As we make clear in our help center, Explorers should always use Glass responsibly and put their safety and the safety of others first. More broadly, Glass is built to connect you more with the world around you, not distract you from it."
Abadie got the ticket under a California law that bans drivers from using mobile devices while their vehicles are moving but specifically exempts GPS devices. She plans to fight the ticket and said she has gotten offers of help from lawyers since she posted news of the stop on a social networking site.

The MIRIAD dataset is a database of volumetric MRI brain-scans of Alzheimer's sufferers and healthy elderly people. Many scans were collected of each participant at intervals from 2 weeks to 2 years, the study was designed to investigate the feasibility of using MRI as an outcome measure for clinical trials of Alzheimer's treatments. Including:
- To find the minimal interval over which trials would need to be conducted.
- To assess whether combining more than two scanning time points would increase statistical power and, if so, the optimal combination and timing of scans for trials of varying lengths.
- To provide a means of assessing the reproducibility of techniques within a single day and over short intervals where changes in individual's hydration and scanner fluctuations, but not pathological atrophy, might be expected.
These scans, together with demographic and psychological data, are now publicly available in anonymised form to aid researchers in developing new techniques for the analysis of serially acquired MRI.

2011 Volkswagen CC Lux Plus PZEV 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6AM)
Wanting more for less is my new criteria in any purchase. My wife and I have driven BMW's for years. Coming from a 3 Series to the 2011 VW CC Luxury Plus is a comfort upgrade and we saved thousands of dollars. Standard NAV, rear camera, SAT radio, 30GB hard drive to store music are all items that would have made many cars very expensive. They are standard on the VW CC Lux Plus. If you want honest German engineering and quality in a car packed with features this is it.

Could you have allergic asthma?
1 comment:
I am John Smith. I was suffering from severe chronic asthma since many years. I consulted many doctors but in vain. Recently, one of my friend gave me a reference of this society specially dedicated to the patients suffering from asthma, Columbus Asthma Society. I consulted their main doctor Dr. Summit Shah and now I am recovering rapidly owing to their allergy shots. I would strongly recommend you guys to check Columbus Asthma Society and get the best treatment for all asthma related problems.ReplyDelete

The Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks are not working on a sign and trade deal that would send Chandler Parsons to the Mavericks, according to Marc Stein (ESPN). Stein originally believed the Rockets and Mavericks may be able to pull it off, but it appears the Mavericks decided against it.
Sign-and-trade talks between Houston and Dallas have ended, sources say. So Rockets won't be salvaging trade exception from Parsons' exit
— Marc Stein (@ESPNSteinLine) July 14, 2014
Mavs understandably cool on the idea of helping a Texas neighbor escape with a valuable asset. So original offer sheet to Parsons stands
— Marc Stein (@ESPNSteinLine) July 14, 2014
The Rockets and Mavericks were reportedly looking at potential S&T deals on Friday, but they stopped once the Rockets believed they were getting Chris Bosh. If they had Bosh, the Rockets were expected to match the offer sheet Parsons signed with the Mavericks.
Now that the Rockets have said they aren't matching the Parsons offer sheet, the Rockets were looking to recoup any value possible.
With the already long history of hatred between the two front offices, the Mavericks wouldn't budge into giving Houston any sort of value.
This was the expected result and an unfortunate huge swing and a miss by GM Daryl Morey.
We'll see how the Rockets front office bounces back this offseason.

posts about or somewhat related to 'Mexico'
Mexico Decides to Protect Journalists; Iowa Decides to Criminalize Them
Okay, these are two pretty unrelated stories, except that they both address what journalists who report on tough stuff have to deal with.
First, some good news:
In Mexico, where journalists who report on crime are regularly threatened, attacked, and killed, the Senate finally approved a constitutional amendment that federalizes criminal attacks on journalists.
Some background:
Over the past three years, Mexico has climbed to number 8 on the Committee to Protect Journalists' 2011 "Impunity Index," which tallies the unsolved murders of journalists around the world. And that's to say nothing of those who are murdered after commenting on crime via social media – an alarming trend in recent years.
Thanks to the new amendment, journalists can now turn to federal authorities, who have a better reputation dealing with corruption than local cops, whose hands are often in the pockets of drug cartels.
Now, some bad news:
Iowa just passed HF 589, which is better known as the "Ag Gag" law. It criminalizes investigative journalists who take jobs at factory farms seeking to document food safety and animal welfare abuses.
The law [makes] it a crime to give a false statement on an "agricultural production" job application. This lets factory farms and slaughterhouses screen out potential whistleblowers simply by asking on job applications, "Are you affiliated with a news organization, labor union, or animal protection group?"
Why does this matter?
In recent years, these undercover videos have spurred changes in our food system by showing consumers the disturbing truth about where most of today's meat, eggs, and dairy is produced. Undercover investigations have directly led to America's largest meat recalls, as well as to the closure of several slaughterhouses that had egregiously cruel animal handling practices.
(via The Atlantic)
You win some, you lose some.
Killing Reporters Now a Federal Offense in Mexico →
The Mexican senate passed a bill yesterday that makes killing reporters — and any infringement on freedom of information — a federal offense. As we noted earlier, 40 journalists have been killed in Mexico since 2006 with very little follow through in police investigations.
The hope is that elevating such crimes to the federal level will lead to better investigations and prosecutions. The belief being that there's less corruption at that level.
Via Reporters Without Borders:
The federal senate's 95 members yesterday unanimously passed an amendment to article 73 of the constitution allowing the federal courts and investigators to deal with crimes that threaten the work of journalists and freedom of information. The amendment was already approved by the lower house last November.
The amendment says: "The federal authorities will also be able to try crimes under state jurisdiction when they are linked to federal crimes or when they are crimes against journalists, persons or installations that affect, limit or impinge on the right to information or the freedoms of expression and publication."
Mexico is ranked 149 out of 179 countries on Reporters Without Borders annual press freedom index.
Russell Banks, American Author, to colleagues during a PEN International mission to Mexico that is encouraging law enforcement to better protect journalists.
As the Committee to Protect Journalists notes, 43 journalists have been murdered in Mexico since 2006
A note left with the beheaded body of a Mexican blogger in Nuevo Laredo along the Texas-Mexican border*. As we've written before, traditional newsrooms, bloggers, and social media commentators have been targeted by the drug cartels for reporting on their activity.
The victim, identified on social networking sites only by his nickname - Rascatripas or Belly Scratcher - reportedly helped moderate a site called En Vivo that posted news of shootouts and other activities of the Zetas, the narcotics and extortion gang that all but controls the city.
The beheaded body of another blogger, 39-year-old Elizabeth Macias, who contributed to the blog, was found in the same location in late September.
A young man and a woman were hung from a highway overpass earlier that same month. A sign left with their bodies said they too had been killed for their social media activity…
…With mainstream newspapers and broadcasters terrorized by the criminal gangs, whose violence has killed upward of 50,000 people across Mexico in five years, social media networks have become key information sources in many towns and cities.
A senior editor at El Mañana, Nuevo Laredo's largest newspaper, was knifed to death after leaving work in 2004. Gunmen attacked the newspaper's offices in 2006, crippling a journalist. The newspaper since has dramatically scaled back its reporting of the violence, as have other news organizations.
* Correction: We originally wrote that Nuevo Laredo was a neighborhood in Mexico City. Thank you wiredthoughts for pointing out our error.
Gunmen Storm Mexican Newsroom →
On Sunday, unidentified gunmen stormed the newsroom of El Buen Tono, a month-old startup based in Veracruz that reports on politics and organized crime. They destroyed computers and other equipment, and then set the building on fire.
No injuries were reported but the Committee to Protect Journalists writes that attacks such as these are becoming more common.
Via the CPJ:
Vanguardia, the oldest and largest newspaper in the city of Saltillo, was the target of a hand grenade attack in May. In February, gunmen attacked the facilities of two media companies in the city of Torreón, destroyed equipment, and killed a TV engineer. Last year, more than a dozen news facilities were attacked with either guns or explosives. These acts of violence are seen as an easy way for criminal gangs to pressure the press to not report on them, especially in areas where drug traffickers battle for territorial control, CPJ research shows.
Mexican Newsroom Manager Found Decapitated →
Via the Guardian:
The woman, identified by local officials as Marisol Macías Castañeda, a newsroom manager for the Primera Hora newspaper, was found in Nuevo Laredo next to a handwritten note claiming she was murdered for posts about the Zetas cartel, which is believed to dominate the area's drug trade to Laredo, Texas.
Macías Castañeda held an administrative post at Primera Hora, not a reporting job, according to a colleague who wished to remain anonymous. But it was apparently what she posted on the social networking site Nuevo Laredo en Vivo (Nuevo Laredo Live), rather than her role at the newspaper, that prompted her murder.
The site prominently features tip hotlines for the Mexican army, navy and police, and includes a section for reporting the location of drug gang lookouts and drug sales points – possibly the information that angered the cartel.
The message found next to her body on the side of a main road referred to the nickname Macías Castañeda purportedly used on the site, La Nena de Laredo (Laredo Girl). Her head was found placed on a large stone piling nearby.
"Nuevo Laredo en Vivo and social networking sites, I'm The Laredo Girl, and I'm here because of my reports, and yours," the message read. "For those who don't want to believe, this happened to me because of my actions, for believing in the army and the navy. Thank you for your attention, respectfully, Laredo Girl…ZZZZ."
For background on Mexican killings related to information posted via social networks, see our post from earlier today.
