Samsung sells 20 million Galaxy S 4 handsets, according to Korean media
So, JK Shin hasn't emerged from Samsung's HQ declaring that his company has sold 20 million Galaxy S 4s, but the day (and week) is still young. Korea's news media is quoting the CEO as saying that Samsung's flagship Jay-Z player / handset has seen its sales double from the 10 million that was announced at the tail-end of May. Given that we're but a few days away from the company's next earnings estimates, we'll probably find out for certain soon enough.

Obama, Bush honor victims of bin Laden's opening salvo
Jason Reed / Reuters
President Barack Obama and former President George W. Bush attend a memorial Tuesday for the victims of the 1998 U.S. Embassy bombing in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
By Ian Johnston, Staff Writer, NBC News
President Barack Obama and his predecessor George W. Bush met in an African capital Tuesday to honor the victims of Osama bin Laden?s opening salvo in his war against America.
The near-simultaneous bombings at two U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998 claimed the lives of 224 people, including 12 Americans.
In the words of then President Bill Clinton, the U.S. had lost ?12 proud sons and daughters who perished half a world away, but never left America behind, who carried with them ? the ideals for which America stands.?
A few months before the attacks in August 1998, bin Laden had warned his war would "inevitably move ... to American soil." U.S. embassies are American territory, according to international law.
The attacks prompted the FBI to put bin Laden on its "Most Wanted" list, though al-Qaeda attempts to attack American targets date back to 1992. The 1993 World Trade Center attack was masterminded by Ramzi Yousef and it is unclear if bin Laden was involved.

An American soldier stands guard in front of the U.S. Embassy in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, on August 8, 1998, the day after a bomb blast killed 10 Tanzanians and wounded more than 85 local people and Americans.
Nearly 15 years later, the embassy attacks brought together Obama and Bush on Tuesday in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
In a brief ceremony, Obama and Bush walked over to a memorial on a large piece of rock near the embassy?s entrance under a big tree. A new embassy was built in 2003.
A U.S. Marine laid the wreath as the two presidents stood for a moment of silence. They did not make any public remarks, but then spoke to survivors and relatives of those who died.
The stone is inscribed with the names of the 10 Tanzanians who died. More than 85 Americans and Tanzanians were also injured in the attack.
A memorial by the embassy community is also held every August 7, the anniversary of the attacks. Bush and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have previously visited the embassy and laid wreaths at the memorial stone.
Despite the devastation caused by the bombing, 15 Tanzanian embassy staff who survived still work there today.
And the number of American staff there has grown by 57 percent since 2009.
President Obama was warmly greeted by throngs in Tanzania, but his message of trade was overshadowed by other events around the world.
The attack prompted Clinton to attempt to kill bin Laden with a missile strike, Bush continued efforts to find bin Laden, who was finally slain in 2011 while Obama was in office.
Bush was in Dar es Salaam with his wife Laura for The Bush Center?s two-day African First Ladies Summit in Tanzania.
At a meeting earlier Tuesday, Laura Bush shared a platform with Michelle Obama and spoke of the overriding need for freedom ? freedom not only from tyranny but also in education, economics and other areas.
Michelle Obama stressed the importance of education in empowering women.
?I am sitting here now, as First Lady of the United States of America, because of education,? she told the summit, according to The Bush Center's Twitter account.
The Obamas are on the final day of a week-long tour of the continent, visiting Senegal and South Africa.

DutchNews.nl - Rabobank will not finance shale gas extraction
Rabobank will not finance shale gas extraction
Monday 01 July 2013
The Rabobank will not lend money to companies involved in shale gas extraction, the cooperative bank told Trouw on Monday.
Nor will it make loans to farmers who rent their land to shale gas extraction companies.
The bank's global policy is not to be involved with extracting fossil fuels where it is not clear what the risks and consequences may be, a spokesman told the paper.
Fracking
Shale gas is natural gas trapped in dense shale beds. It is extracted using a controversial process known as fracking, which involves drilling a deep hole through the shale and pumping in water mixed with sand and chemicals.
Research into fracking in the Netherlands is currently being carried out by the economic affairs ministry. The results are expected in July.
Around 170 of the 400 councils in the country are thought to be sitting on reserves of shale or coal gas.
However, opposition to drilling is growing. A number of local councils, water boards and even brewing groups like Heineken have come out against the production of shale gas because of the risk of pollution.

Where the Hell Is the True North Pole?
The North Pole is just at the top of the Earth, right? Well, not really: there isn't really a 'top' of a sphere and, anyway, depending on how you measure things the pole can be in one of many different spots. So which one's right?
