This week, Moreover’s Dayton office was graced by our sales and development teams from around the globe. Monday night we played laser tag. Despite creative interpretations of the rules by one side, the US and the UK/Client Services/Australian teams tied with 1 game a piece.

Congratulations to Rick who had the high score of the night. Thanks to Laser Quest for having us and to those that organized the trip for making it a smashing success.

Woman who dumped cat in wheelie bin traced by RSPCA…
Birmingham Evening Mail

To be expected anything making the news like this soon took on a life of its own online, with the initial outrage now subsiding somewhat into more a source of humour.

Round the other side of the world, and also generating plenty of clicks, was the story of the Chilean miners who, rather than being stuck in a wheelie bin for 16 hours, are trapped 2,300ft underground for nearly three weeks and counting:

Nasa asked to help Chile miners…
Telegraph

That’s a story that I’m sure will stay in the news for a the next few weeks until the miners are back safely above ground. Also generating traffic this week was the mammoth traffic jam in the Chinese capital Beijing, standing at 60 miles long with a nine-day queue I’m sure it left plenty of people wondering if walking might have been quicker!

These are some of our most popular click-throughs but what were your favourite news pieces this past week? Let us know in the comments section below.
