A Grave Interruption
This is a very eye catching title that I lifted from a news article. Do you know what it means? I bet you will have the wrong image in your mind.
As I had always been telling people that essay titles are extremely important to catch the eyes of people when you want many readership or corrections.
The link is purposely placed all the WAY down in bottom of the page to prevent any sneak peaks and thus spoiling the fun.
For those from Mainland China who cannot access the link, all I can say that I am sorry that you cannot enjoy something from your own home country.

Also, the link contains the words that will give the title away. Hence, I put it out of sight.

@Jose: I used the word "lifted" as an euphemism for "stealing". Plagiarisizing is what I really wanted to say.

Hi Jeff, well done, good article... Oups, good title. But I wonder why you put so many line spaces, to check if we will be reading the article until the end?
Jeff, in this sentence: "This is a very eye catching title that I ->lifted from<- a news article", I will have used the verb "I draw from".
It seems to me that "lifted from" is more informal and express, in some way, "plagiarism". Or, perhaps it was a desired effect :).
Thank you for your comment which will improve my English.
再见 José from France.

@Lily: Yes... you are absolutely right. You can say English is either wonderful or terrible! One word can mean so many things. It is difficult for people to learn. Just like using simplified Chinese for 松 which now can mean "pine" or "loose" when the traditional form, though has more strokes to disambiguate the word with the same sound. This is why "piece" and "peace"; "cell" and "sell" are spelt differently.
@Fenton: It is always greed who is the chief instigator.

It's hard to say who got ripped off more in this case. I have to say Its all down to money, "auspicious stuff" is just a red herring. And that this developer tried to rise above it all was actually a deterrent. I don't know what went wrong in this case, related Law and Regulations? or Greedy Nature?
