WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (AP) ? Sheriff's deputies say a woman threw powder on Kim Kardashian in the lobby of a West Hollywood hotel where the television personality was hosting an event.

Gomez says Kardashian told the deputies she did not want to press charges against the woman and a non-criminal battery report was taken
Gomez says paramedics were called to the hotel, but Kardashian refused medical treatment.
He says Kardashian returned to her room, removed the powder from her hair and clothing and returned to the event.

GOLF: Wi grabs first-round lead at Bay Hill
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) ? Charlie Wi felt a lot better walking off the golf course compared with his last round.
So did Tiger Woods.
Coming off a final round at Innisbrook in which he made a 13 on one hole, Wi hit an 8-iron over the water to 6 feet for birdie on the 18th for a 6-under 66, giving him a share of the lead with Jason Dufner on Thursday in the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
It's the fourth time Dufner has been atop the leaderboard after a round during the Florida swing ? except that none of those rounds have been Sunday.
The last time Woods was seen on the PGA Tour, he was being driven away in a golf cart after withdrawing in the middle of the final round at Doral with soreness and swelling in his left Achilles tendon.
Woods, a six-time champion at Bay Hill, shot a 69 without breaking a sweat, much less breaking any body parts. There was nothing particularly special about this round, except for a 30-foot birdie putt that swirled around the cup at the 15th, and a couple of three-putt bogeys that kept his score from being lower.
Phil Mickelson was all over the place, going from a bunker to a magnolia tree on his way to an unlikely par; hitting a tee shot out of bounds for double bogey; hitting into the water for another double bogey; and somehow escaping with a 73.
KIA CLASSIC
CARLSBAD, Calif. (AP) ? Top-ranked Yani Tseng shot a 5-under 67 for a share of the first-round lead with Ji Young Oh in the Kia Classic.
Tseng finished with a birdie on the par-4 ninth after dropping a stroke on the par-3 eighth.
The 23-year-old Taiwanese star won the LPGA Founders Cup on Sunday in Phoenix for her 14th LPGA Tour title and second in four events this year. She led the tour last season with seven victories ? including major victories in the LPGA Championship and Women's British Open ? and finished the year with 12 worldwide titles.
Oh, a two-time LPGA Tour winner who fought a hip injury the last two seasons, also had six birdies and a bogey on La Costa's Legends Course.
Suzann Pettersen, Jiyai Shin, Brittany Lincicome, Jennifer Johnson and Caroline Hedwall were a stroke back
Michelle Wie opened with a 77.
HASSAN II TROPHY
AGADIR, Morocco (AP) ? Ireland's Damien McGrane shot a 7-under 65 to take a two-stroke lead after the first round of the European Tour's Hassan II Trophy.
Spain's Alejandro Canizares was second at Golf du Palais Royal, the Robert Trent Jones Sr.-designed course that sits inside the walls of the Royal Palace of Agadir. Other than the tournament, the course is used only by King Mohammed VI and his guests.
England's Robert Rock, needing to finish first or second in to make the top 50 in the world and assure a spot in the Masters, had a 77. He had an 11 on the par-4 fourth hole.
John Daly also opened with a 77.

Foreseeing Trouble: Before heading to the auto repair shop ...
Foreseeing Trouble: Before heading to the auto repair shop
Article by Morrison?s Discount Auto Repair
Some of the most common auto repair services asked for have to do with the vehicle?s AC, the brakes, and the transmission. Auto AC repair is essential for passenger comfort, while brake repair and transmission repair are for safety and functionality. But how will you know which part of the AC, brake, or transmission to fix?
There are simple troubleshooting methods you can do to check which part of your vehicle is not working as it should. After all, auto repair is an expensive service so you have to know exactly what you?re spending on when the time comes.
Your vehicle?s transmission plays an essential role in making a car move. Somehow it can shift your car from gear to gear, knowing how fast you need to go and how quickly you need to get there. Knowing the basics of transmission repair will enable you to have a sensible conversation with your mechanic, instead of a scenario where you just nod you head at the stuff he?s telling you. In order avoid being talked into having something fixed that really doesn?t need any fixing, you first need to know the key parts of a transmission: bell housing, gears, fluid, and filters. A breakdown on neither one of these parts will result to a visit in the auto repair shop.
Transmission repairs generally aim to fix two very common problems. First is that the vehicle won?t move, and the second is that the vehicle does not move smoothly. Mechanics of auto repair shops would look at three things first before trying out more complicated troubleshooting methods. Fluid levels checked initially. It?s important to check your transmission fluid at least twice a year. Not only can a low fluid level cause your car to shift poorly, it can eventually lead to damage, and a costly transmission repair.
If fluid levels continue to deplete even after just a few hours of filling it, then you?re problems could be a leak. Since the transmission is a closed system, it is then really necessary that you take your car to the auto repair shop. Fortunately, there?s only so much transmission parts in which a leak could be found. This makes leak-location processes a bit less stressful.
The last place the auto repair shop usually checks in your transmission are the filters. Your transmission?s filter is vital to its performance. If you haven?t replaced your filter in a while (or ever for a lot of us), be sure to do this before you start talking about rebuilds or replacements of your transmission box.
Auto AC repair is an immediate need when the unit breaks down, especially in Tampa. Auto AC was adapted from the early use and application of refrigeration systems. Most vehicles today use a refrigerant called R-134a, the less harmful version of its earlier counterpart, R-12. Auto AC repairs are usually called for in the occurrence of leaks which results to an inability to produce cool air. The compressor is the boss of the entire operation. It takes the refrigerant (the gas) and pressurizes it so it will cool the air. It?s run by an engine belt. The compressor also has an electrically operated clutch that turns the compressor on and off as the demand more cool air increases. Having your compressor replaced will cost you a lot and might require you to leave your car overnight at the auto repair shop.
Common problems that generally needs brake repair are wears, warped rotors, and fluid leaks. The braking system does a lot of work and the brake pads take the brunt of the punishment. Replace brake pads at least every six months. Regular checks on your brakes can save you a lot of money from more complicated brake repairs.

The Three Ways to Respond in Negotiations - CrossPoint Business
Basically, the various ways of responding during a negotiation fit into three different categories.
1. Take it or leave it.
The simplest way to respond in a negotiation is with a "yes" or "no" to the proposal.
For example, whether the buyer makes an offer or a seller makes a counter-offer, the other party has the option to accept or reject the offer exactly as proposed.
2. Split the difference.
Another valid response is to split the difference or find middle ground between two positions.
For example: A buyer and seller may elect to split the difference between what the seller is willing to accept and the buyer is willing or pay. This is an oversimplification, but this method is often used.
3. Trade-offs.
The third way to respond is to offer or ask for a trade-off in one area in order to hold one's ground in another area. The parties have to know what is really important to them. Many of these trade-offs are non-monetary and involve personal issues.
For example, the seller may want his son to be able to stay with the company or may want a guarantee that the buyer will not move the company. In either of these situations, the seller may accept a lower price offered by the buyer as a trade for accepting such a condition.

CBO: ObamaCare Will Cause Millions to Lose Insurance and ...
Tell that to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). That nonpartisan agency has just released a report estimating that anywhere from 3 million to a whopping 20 million Americans are likely to lose their employer-based health coverage annually beginning in 2019.
The CBO considered a variety of scenarios with regard to employer-based health insurance. The best-case scenario had just 3 million people losing their coverage each year from 2019 to 2022, while the worst-case scenario had 20 million losing it. (One scenario, however, projected that 3 million more people each year would receive employer-based insurance.) The CBO?s best estimate was that ?about 3 million to 5 million fewer people, on net, will obtain coverage through their employer each year ? than would have been the case under prior law.?
The CBO expects employers to drop insurance coverage primarily for low-wage earners. The penalty for failing to insure employees, after all, is often far lower than the cost of insuring them; and low-wage earners have little bargaining power. In addition, employers will expect those workers to be able to obtain healthcare via Medicaid, the Children?s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), or subsidized insurance on state exchanges ? which is true for some but not all of them. In 2019 the CBO projects 11 million people will lose coverage through their employers and another 3 million will drop it voluntarily to obtain subsidized insurance or Medicaid; but it expects 9 million to gain employer-based coverage, meaning that 5 million fewer people will have employer-based health insurance.
Moreover, despite the hype surrounding ObamaCare, it will not by any means solve the problem of individuals? lacking health insurance. According to the CBO?s best estimate, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) will only insure about half of those who would be uninsured in its absence: ?Under the ACA, the number of people without health insurance will fall from between 57 million and 60 million in those years to about 26 million or 27 million.? That, of course, leaves the door open for further intervention ? perhaps in the form of universal, government-run healthcare ? to take care of those remaining uninsured persons.
While the CBO admitted that ?there is clearly a tremendous amount of uncertainty about how employers and employees will respond to the set of opportunities and incentives under ObamaCare, it apparently had enough confidence in its own prognosticative powers to offer forecasts of how many people will lose (or gain) employer-based coverage a decade hence. At the same time, it dismissed various surveys showing that far more employers are likely to drop insurance coverage than the government has estimated because the survey results are ?conflicting? (as were the CBO?s various scenarios) and because ?it is doubtful that any survey conducted today could provide very accurate predictions of employers? future decisions.? Apparently, forecasts that bolster, at least to some extent, the government?s agenda are to be believed despite vast uncertainty, while those that conflict with that agenda are not to be trusted because of said uncertainty.
Republicans were only too happy to seize on the inconsistency between the President?s pledge to let people keep their existing health coverage and the CBO?s forecast of millions? being deprived of their employer-based plans.
??President Obama?s string of empty promises is quickly becoming a disappointing trail of broken promises,? House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) said in a March 15 statement. ?He promised Americans that his overhaul of the health care sector would not jeopardize the health coverage of those who liked what they had. As nonpartisan analysts made clear today, millions of Americans will soon learn the hard way that Washington?s overreach into their health care decisions will result in sharp disruptions to their coverage and their care.?
This marked the second time in the space of a few days that the CBO had handed the GOP a political advantage with regard to ObamaCare. An earlier report estimated that the law would now cost nearly twice as much as originally forecast ? $1.76 trillion as opposed to $938 billion ? between now and 2022.
The reason for the increase is that the original 10-year estimate included two years before the law would take effect, during which, naturally, there was little to no spending on it. Now that the estimate begins when ObamaCare begins, there is spending throughout the decade under consideration, making the price tag higher. The fact that that cost doubles when only two more years of spending are included shows just how fast the law is going to become a drag on the federal budget.
In addition, that $1.76 trillion is only the estimated cost of subsidizing insurance coverage. It does not include implementation costs or other charges. Adding those in, Senate Budget Committee ranking member Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) told Fox News, would bring the cost to $2.6 trillion over 10 years ? which, he noted, was more than the $2.1-trillion deficit-reduction target that Congress set last year.
?The bill spends more than the President promised, it covers fewer people ? probably 2 million fewer people ? and it taxes more than was expected,? Sessions said.
In other words, it?s just another day in the life of ObamaCare, whose motto seems to be ?Promises are made to be broken ? and fast!?

Syrian insists rebels are regrouping, won't cave
GORENTAS, Turkey (AP) ? Syrian rebels are regrouping despite some bitter defeats at the hands of President Bashar Assad's regime, and a top priority is finding weapons and ammunition to boost their firepower, a man who identified himself as a low-ranking rebel commander told The Associated Press.
Ahmad Mihbzt, who said he was a sergeant who defected from the Syrian army, spoke in Gorentas, a Turkish village just a few kilometers (miles) from the Syrian border. The 25-year-old is one of hundreds, possibly thousands, of rebels who have fled to Turkey, where many hope to turn the tide of the fight back in their favor.
"We are regrouping," Mihbzt insisted Sunday. "We are working on finding weapons."
In recent weeks, as the uprising against Assad wrapped up its first year, Syrian government forces retook some key rebel-held areas in the country.
On March 1, after nearly four weeks of relentless shelling that killed hundreds of people, the government reclaimed the Baba Amr neighborhood in the city of Homs. On Tuesday, government forces retook the town of Idlib after a bloody, three-day operation close to the border with Turkey.
Mihbzt was among some 200 rebels, including military defectors, fighting Syrian troops in the village of Cenudi, near Idlib. About a week ago, government forces routed the rebels after shelling the village from about 3 kilometers (1.9 miles) away in an operation that used hundreds of soldiers, Mihbzt said.
Mihbzt and his 20 men left their weapons with other rebels who fled to nearby mountains and began a 25-kilometer (16-mile) walk toward the Turkish border while under fire from Syrian forces. He said the rebels withdrew in part to protect the civilian population from further harm.
Now he is in a refugee camp in Turkey that houses about 500 former members of the Syrian military. More than 15,000 refugees labeled as civilians are in other border camps. Mihbzt claimed thousands of those refugees also are members of the Free Syrian Army, a statement difficult to immediately verify.
The rebels' top priority is gathering more weapons and especially ammunition, Mihbzt said.
As part of their strategy, rebel fighters are targeting Syrian soldiers on patrol or sentries guarding various facilities to seize their weapons. The rebels also hope to capture arms depots belonging to the Syrian army, he said.
The soft-spoken Mihbzt didn't give many details, but an influx of weapons could possibly transform the conflict.
Saudi Arabia and Qatar have been discussing military aid, but the United States and others have not advocated arming the rebels, in part out of fear it would create an even more bloody and prolonged battle.
Syria has a complex web of allegiances in the region that extends to Iran and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, raising concern that violence could spread beyond its borders if other nations directly army the rebels or send in their own troops.
The regime says it is fighting foreign terrorists and armed gangs, not a genuine popular revolt. But the opposition says it was forced to take up arms after the government used tanks, snipers and machine guns to crush peaceful protesters inspired by the Arab spring revolutions in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya.
A major challenge facing the rebels is a dearth of cash with which to buy weapons and ammunition.
A well-connected Turkish smuggler who operates in the region says rebels have faced difficulty buying weapons on the black market in part because people close to the Syrian regime have offered higher prices. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he fears reprisals if he is named.
Interviews with more than a dozen FSA members in recent months indicate that the group's weapons tend to come from Iraq and Lebanon, as well as from army defectors who kept their weapons when they abandoned their posts.
Mihbzt said the rebels mostly had Kalashnikovs, some rocket-propelled grenade launchers and heavy machine guns. He said finding ammunition in good condition is a problem. But he insisted rebels would not give up their quest to overthrow the Assad regime.
"We don't accept the defeat," he said. "We will fight until our last drop of blood."

Find out To Travel Like The Experts | Treasured Articles
When about to travel an important resource can be talking to friends and family about where you are traveling. Often one can gain helpful information that would have not otherwise be obtained. The advantage of talking to a real person can result in beneficial information that can make all the difference between an enjoyable trip or a miserable one.
Whether you are traveling within the United States or in a foreign country, always make sure the taxi cabs you use are certified with the city. There is usually a sticker visible from the back seat of the vehicle. If you are unsure, research city-licensed cabs before you travel. This way, you can avoid unlicensed cabs that overcharge their patrons, and save money to do more fun things during your travels.
Before you go through airport security, make sure you put the extra change or your car keys in your carry-on. Keeping the line backed up because you have to take change out of every cargo pocket is a nuisance but easily avoidable. With that said, loosen your shoes laces before you get to the bin area so you slide your shoes off.
Before heading off on your vacation, make sure to go online and check out the wide variety of travel forums that are available. These sits allow travelers to answer other user?s questions about various destinations. They can provide a wealth of information on restaurants, hotels and attractions.
When you sign up for your passport, make sure you fill in the emergency information. You should always prepare for the worst and the unexpected. Should something happen to you while in a foreign country, it is important to have this sort of information available to contact friends, family, or loved ones.
Before purchasing a package deal for travel, check out the prices of the individual components. In many cases, the package deals are cheaper than buying the pieces separately, but not always. It never hurts to check out pricing for yourself before becoming locked in to purchasing the whole package, and you might discover there?s a part of the package you don?t want, such as meals.
Planning to keep children happy and occupied while traveling will prevent a lot of headaches for everyone. Set aside special back-packs for any child accompanying you on your venture and fill it with goodies that will hold their attention, amuse them, and even feed them, if necessary. Small things that help pass time like books and notepads or travel games should suffice and will go a long way in easing hassles and boredom.
If you?re going to be taking a trip soon Todd suggests learning a new language of the place you travel as it can really help you enjoy your trip. While not taking a trip Todd loves riding horses.

Lion fish from the pacific ocean - Pets, Birds and Animals ...
Check out the photo above. Is not one of the most beautiful fish you?ve seen? It seems almost a figurehead. The lion fish is the common name given to the fish of the genus Pterois. These fish are truly beautiful creatures, but their adaptation to the environment have become a skilled hunter lethal.
These fish are beautiful, thanks mainly to its long tentacles. The fish has red stripes, black and white throughout the body that allow you to dramatically camouflage. What adaptations to the environment are capable of doing? As you commented, the camouflage. Another of its adaptations is that of the tentacles. These will provide a delicate and beautiful appearance, but are actually very useful appendices for survival as they are poisonous.
Fish use their tentacles to attract and kill their prey. The tentacles also play an important role in selecting a mate for reproduction. There is also a single tentacle which lies above the eyes of the fish, said a special way helps to attract prey.

Buying Silver and Gold: Vital Things You Really Should be Aware of ...
For those interested in buying gold and silver, a diverse array of choices exist. Physical precious metals, shares of stocks from companies who mine these from the earth, exchange traded funds, e-gold currencies, and futures and options contracts. But if you want to know what the best investment vehicle is among all these, the answer has to be real metals hands-down.
There are many who don?t necessarily adhere to this perspective. They cite a plethora of reasons why physical gold and silver are not sound investment ideas. Physical metals are more expensive to acquire, for one, compared to some non-physical precious metals investment vehicles. You can buy portions of an ounce, for example, with gold and silver exchange traded funds. The aggressive speculator can also gain control over a large portion of gold for a considerably small amount of money when buying gold futures and options.
Storage is also a thorny issue when it comes to buying physical gold and silver. Whether you store it at home or in a third-party vault that offers maximum security, you need to spend for it. In addition, you will also have to factor in the cost of insurance-something that you really need to get when you own something as precious as gold.
Transporting the gold to and from the storage area to another also poses a security risk on the part of the seller and the buyer. There are always bad elements around who know the value of these precious metals who would seek to steal these. Indeed, you put not only your physical gold or silver bar or coin on the line when you bring these to the street, you are also exposing yourself to danger as well.
But no matter what the negatives are, physical metals are better investments than paper claims. This is because they hold that element of tangibility. Although you can buy shares of stocks in mining companies, futures contracts and options contracts, and gold ETFs that certify that you hold a certain quantity of gold that is still to be mined or are stored in a bank somewhere, you do not know if such a metal really exists. In the event that economic or political turmoil erupts, history has shown that it is the small investor who stands to lose not only his initial investment but his gold and silver as well.
Yes, there is truth to the fact that dollar-denominated assets double or even triple in value within a short period of time. On the other end of the spectrum, physical gold and silver do not take such a rapid rise; they may even depreciate in certain economic conditions or when you fail to store it right. But this appreciation is not for the long-term. Investments that depend on fiat money naturally lose their value as currency gets devaluated. Physical gold and silver, meanwhile, will remain valuable because they are inherently precious.
The liquidity of physical gold and silver is the ultimate reason for choosing physical metals over mere gold certificates. They might be a bit bulky to store but when your other dollar-backed investments begin to lose ground, you will be thankful that you decided to buy physical gold and silver.
Also, you should definitely have a look at Gold Money, it is a convenient way to invest in gold and silver on the Internet. Read this article on Gold Money storage fees for more details.

Apple stock tops $600 day before new iPad release
NEW YORK (AP) ? Apple Inc.'s stock touched $600 for the first time, the day before the company's latest iPad goes on sale.
The stock reached $600.01 just after the market opened and was up $3.76 at $593.34 after the half-hour of trading.
Apple is the world's most valuable company, with a market capitalization of nearly $555 billion. It topped $500 billion for the first time in late February, a market value peak where few companies have ventured.
Anticipation is high for Apple's latest creation. Some industry experts believe the Cupertino, Calif., company could sell 1 million of the new iPad on Friday, when it becomes available to the public. Apple has already stopped taking advance orders for Friday and said customers should expect a two- to three-week wait for purchases made through its online store.
There were 15.4 million iPads shipped in Apple's most recent quarter, which included the critical holiday season. That amount was more than double its iPad sales the year before.
The updated iPad will not have a new name. Upgrades include a sharper screen, driven by a faster processing chip that acts as the "brains" of the device. The new features will make the tablet computer slightly thicker and heavier than the iPad 2, because it needs a larger battery to power the high-resolution screen.
Prices aren't changing from the previous models. They will start at $499. Versions capable of accessing cellular networks will cost $629 to $829.
The new iPad will go on sale Friday in the U.S., Canada and 10 other countries. It will go on sale in 25 more countries next week.

New Orleans Real Estate, the Internet and Buying and Selling ...
Real Estate agents are governed by laws that say we can?t answer a lot of questions you may ask. ?Fair housing laws mean that I can?t tell you about school districts, crime, parks and the neighbors. ?The internet has made all of this information available and buyers need to research all of this information. ?Real Estate agents can provide links to the information but can have no opinion and can not be the source of the information only the source of the source.
I am often asked questions that I can?t answer and I can?t answer because it is illegal, not because I don?t know. ?The internet has made researching this information so much easier as there is no end to what is available online. ?I think that is a good thing because I believe buyer?s need to be fully informed before they make a purchase.

Microsoft Offers Credit for Azure Cloud Outage
Microsoft has offered a service credit for customers of its Windows Azure cloud computing service in the wake of an extended outage?on Feb. 29 due to a Leap Year date issue. Microsoft also apologized for problems with its status dashboard for Azure, which crashed during the outage, and promised to expand its communications efforts to make better use of social media.
?Microsoft recognizes that this outage had a significant impact on many of our customers,? the company said in an incident report. ?We stand behind the quality of our service and our Service Level Agreement (SLA), and we remain committed to our customers. Due to the extraordinary nature of this event, we have decided to provide a 33% credit to all customers of Windows Azure Compute, Access Control, Service Bus and Caching for the entire affected billing month(s) for these services, regardless of whether their service was impacted.?
The root cause of the outage was a Leap Year bug in which the system that generates security certificates for Azure. The incident recalld the days of the Y2K bug and the ability of an unanticipated date to trigger a system malfunction.?The system recognized Feb. 29, 2012, but the certificate generation process set a one-year expiration date of Feb. 29, 2013 ? which is not as a valid date, as 2013 is not a leap year.
The impact on customers was exacerbated when the Windows Azure Dashboard was knocked offline, unable to handle the traffic from Azure customers seeking information about the outage. The dashboard is hosted on two internal infrastructures, Windows Azure and Microsoft.com and also geo-replicated, according to Microsoft. But that didn?t help as the outage persisted, which resulted in ?exceptionally high volume and fail-over/load balancing? problems.
?The service dashboard experienced intermittent availability issues, didn?t provide a summary of the situation in its entirety, and didn?t provide the granularity of detail and transparency our customers need and expect,? the company said. ?A significant number of customers are asking us to better use our blog, Facebook page, and Twitter handle to communicate with them in the event of an incident. ?
Microsoft is about three years late in acknowledging the importance of Twitter as a primary communications tool during outages. But the frequency of updates wasn?t the only issue for customers, who were clearly unhappy with generic ?something is still wrong, we?re working on it? updates.
?Although updates are posted on an hourly basis, the status updates were often generic or repeated the information provided in the last couple of hours,? Microsoft said. ? Customers have asked that we provide more details and new information on the specific work taking place to resolve the issue.?

Scuffle after NKorea rejects 'fabricated' UN report
A scuffle broke out Monday in the UN Human Rights Council and a man was detained by security after a North Korean diplomat said a critical report by an independent expert had been fabricated.
North Korea said it "roundly rejects this useless interpretation" which it said was "fabricated by hostile elements" and it called on the council not to renew the mandate of special rapporteur on human rights Marzuki Darusman.
As North Korean delegate So Se Pyong was leaving the hall a scuffle occurred and a man was held by UN security officials before being later released.
The dispute erupted when council members took note of the report by Darusman, the UN special rapporteur on human rights in North Korea.
The report covers the period from September 2011 to January 2012, when it said the situation in North Korea "continued to deteriorate."
After the report was presented, North Korea took the floor, followed by repesentatives of the European Union and Japan.
As the Japanese representative was about to finish his speech, the North Korean diplomat stood up to leave and the scuffle broke out. Some diplomats said South Korean parliamentarians tried to engage the North's envoy
One of the men who was stopped by UN security shouted, "Remember Korean refugees."
Japan welcomed the report and urged North Korea to find a solution to "the issue of abduction of Japanese nationals".
Tokyo, a former coloniser of the Korean Peninsula, and Pyongyang have no formal diplomatic relations and their relations are often strained, even hostile.
France said "serious and massive violations of human rights" had taken place in North Korea and expressed "concern at the deteriorating human rights situation noted in the UN expert's report including sending many people to prison for political reasons".
The EU and the United States noted concern about the report while Cuba, Zimbabwe and Syria said it was a Western attempt to undermine North Korea.
The report said the human rights and humanitarian situation in North Korea has deteriorated in recent months, while adding that the leadership transition following Kim Jong-Il's death in December was an opportunity for reform.
"The current transition may be a window of opportunity for the country to adopt a reform process and address all questions and concerns in relation to human rights," said Darusman.
Kim Jong-Un took over as leader of the North Korean regime after his father Kim Jong-Il's death on December 17 from a heart attack at the age of 69.

India?s ?Angry Brides? game wages war on dowry ?????????????????
An online game in India called ?Angry Brides? which wages war on dowry and seeks to highlight the problem of illegal dowry demands has attracted more than 272,000 fans.
The game by online matchmaker Shaadi.com ? inspired by the hugely popular ?Angry Birds? game ? sees players attack prospective grooms greedy for dowry with a variety of weapons, from a brick-red stiletto to a broomstick.
The three grooms ? an engineer, a doctor and a pilot ? dodge the attacks while demanding dowries starting at 1.5 million rupees (NT$898,000). Each time a player hits a groom, he or she wins money towards a virtual anti-dowry fund.
The game, available as a free application on Facebook, has already attracted more than 272,000 ?likes.?
Paying and accepting a dowry in India has been illegal since 1961, but the centuries-old tradition of the bride?s parents presenting gifts of cash, clothes, jewellery and even appliances to the groom?s family remains strong.
Demands for dowry often persist well past the wedding ceremonies, and in the worst cases brides are tortured and even murdered if they or their parents do not comply.
