Airport Bomb Threat on Narita airport terminal 1 Tokyo.

It was 9.00 pm when I was in Tokyo Narita airport (NRT) | Terminal 1 on the hotel reservation counters. Every thing it seams to be normal when I sow at first place a group of ten police agents coming. Nothing was especially danger for me, even if a policeman asked me to show my passport 10 minutes before that. I have to add on my way going to the airport by train that I did notice they were pretending to warn people at the slightest sign of attempt which I though was overkill warming after my experience of two weeks in Japan with out any kind of threats.

Suddenly a group of over twenty police agents were established at the terminal and the evacuation process started in a section of the Narira terminal

A small bag was situated on this area and it becomes a possible threat and the security forces were processing the investigation of such bag.

The threat was over when the owner of such bag came back to the terminal looking for his stuff messing when he sow a massive group of police agents gathering round his bag immediately hi admitted was part of his belongs and after checking they could make sure there were no threat at all and every thing when back to normal.

PERSONAL PHOTOGRAPHER STATEMENT

Frequently I get asked why I take pictures. Frankly,trough my photography endeavour to brig outout all the beauty around to strike by photographing.

Photography is important to me. Photographs leave our legacy of how we see the world.

I want to make and leave marks for myself and I want to make and leave marks for my future clients.

My goal in photographing a subject is to capture both the nature of the subject and my personal point of view. I am not trying to solely document the scene, but rather I am trying to permanently record the particular aspect or quality of the subject that I find interesting.

I am deeply interested in people they are my source for happiness, sadness and of course inspiration, in spite of all beauty around it plays such big important matter on my career.

Although a studio work is my ambition I’ll never avoid social photography such as professional as a personal portfolio.

GOODBYE to the “Cross Kings bar”

After all this time staying in London we had to say GOODBYE to the “Cross Kings bar” I would say that was a place were a use to go out frequently and the most important thing is, was the first place that I use to go when I start to go out in this city and were I met my first friends. I think every one has a place, in this case a pub were tent to go for meetings and lonely moments to do stuff or just stay to avoid think about anything... I had one in my town were I was born and I was lucky to find out such especial place like Cross Kings bar.

I wish a really good lucky to all the staff who has been working during over two years. I have had I good time and hardly I’ll find other place enjoy as I use to enjoy do in Cross Kings bar.

Why Boycott Ahava?

""Ahava promises “Beauty Secrets from the Dead Sea.” But the real secrets it keeps are an ugly truth—its products actually come from stolen Palestinian natural resources in the Occupied Territory of the Palestinian West Bank, and are produced in the illegal settlement of Mitzpe Shalem.

Because Ahava is hiding the ugly truth—its products actually come from stolen Palestinian natural resources in the Occupied Territory of the Palestinian West Bank, and are produced in the illegal settlement of Mitzpe Shalem. Don’t let the “Made in Israel” sticker fool you—when you buy Ahava products you help finance the destruction of hope for a peaceful and just future for both Israelis and Palestinians.

Ahava puts a pretty face on its crimes, even paying Oxfam Ambassador and “Sex in the City” star Kristen Davis to be its spokeswoman. But here’s what Oxfam itself has to say about Ahava’s deceptive packaging:

• "The settlements on the West Bank are illegal under international humanitarian law and that creates a lot of problems for the Palestinians that live there.”

• "Consumers that are buying produce that are grown in illegal settlements need to have that information so that they can make an informed choice."

Stolen Beauty FAQs

What is the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement?

In July 2005 a broad range of Palestinian Civil Society organizations issued a call for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Against Israel as part of a non-violent campaign to end the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem. Individual consumers can show their opposition to Israel's occupation by participating in a boycott of Israeli goods and services. (You can read the call here) see more about the Israeli civil society campaign in support of BDS, called the Boycott from Within, here, and read CODEPINK's Statement on the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement.

What is the Stolen Beauty Campaign?

Stolen Beauty is a boycott campaign against Ahava Dead Sea Laboratories (see below). It is CODEPINK’s contribution to the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS)

Movement against institutions and corporations that give tacit or material support to the Israeli government’s continued violations of international human rights law. CODEPINK launched Stolen Beauty in the summer of 2009 after leading four delegations to Gaza, Israel, and the Occupied Territories, bearing witness to the devastating impact of occupation.

What is AHAVA and why are we calling for a boycott?

Ahava Dead Sea Laboratories (www.ahava.co.il) is a privately held Israeli cosmetics company that manufactures products using minerals and mud from the Dead Sea. Ahava’s products—such as Grape & Avocado Body Wash, Dead Sea Mineral Mud, and Mineral Foot Cream—are widely available in high-end department stores and pharmacies throughout the United States and in Europe. The Hebrew word “Ahava” means love, but there is nothing loving about what the company is doing in the Occupied Palestinian territory of the West Bank. The company’s practices are against international law

What international laws does AHAVA violate?

The company’s main factory and its visitors’ center are located in the Israeli settlement of Mitzpe Shalem in the Occupied West Bank. Ahava products are labeled as of 'Israeli origin,’ but according to international public law, the West Bank cannot be considered to be part of the State of Israel.

Ahava uses in its products mud from the Dead Sea, excavated in an occupied area, and thus it exploits occupied natural resources for profit, which is a violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention."""
