Students fight prostituition in Ukraine...

A group of young women in Kiev has woven itself into the crowds along Khreshchatyk, the city's main boulevard. They're wearing pink pantyhose, miniskirts and high heels. They carry placards saying: "Ukrainian girls are not for sale." Nastia, a recent high school graduate, says: "Today, we're going on patrol."

Ukraine has become a favored destination for sex tourism, particularly from Western countries. So the women are keeping an eye out for foreigners. Nastia spots a fashionably dressed man, who turns out to be a Danish tourist. She approaches him and starts talking to him, while she presses a flyer into his hand. "Ukraine is no whorehouse" is the title of the flyer, which also warns that Ukraine has Europe's highest incidence of HIV/AIDS. And it accuses those who frequent prostitutes of ultimately supporting the mafia. More...

Pentagon hacker Gary McKinnon should be extradited, court rules...

There were emotional scenes outside the high court today after computer hacker Gary McKinnon lost a further attempt to avoid his extradition to America on charges of breaching US military and Nasa computers.

McKinnon, who has been diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, would suffer from a "severe mental breakdown" if forced to serve up to 60 years in an American jail, his mother, Janis Sharp, said, pleading with politicians to intervene.

"Why aren't they stopping the extradition of a man who is clearly vulnerable and who on the accepted evidence suffers from Asperger's?" Sharp said. "Gary is clearly someone who is not equipped to deal with the American penal system and there is clear evidence that he will suffer a severe mental breakdown if extradited." More...

Switzerland and US reach UBS tax agreement...

The governments of Switzerland and the United States have reached an agreement in principle on the major issues in their tax evasion dispute involving Swiss bank UBS.

US district judge Alan Gold agreed to cancel a trial that was supposed to begin on Monday into a demand for the confidential information of 52,000 UBS clients.

Gold had already delayed the case three weeks to allow all parties to reach an out-of-court settlement. More...

Internet: le Parti des pirates à l'assaut du parlement allemand...

Le Parti des pirates, qui milite pour la légalisation du partage de fichiers sur Internet, a été autorisé vendredi à présenter des candidats aux élections législatives du 27 septembre en Allemagne.

A l'instar de la Suède, qui vient d'élire son premier député "pirate" au parlement européen, l'Allemagne s'est récemment dotée de ce nouveau parti qui a remporté 0,9% des suffrages aux élections européennes en juin.

Le parti a l'intention de présenter des candidats dans tous les Etats fédéraux allemands, à l'exception de la Saxe.

Un prêtre assassiné en Inde...

Un prêtre a été assassiné mercredi en Inde dans le Karnataka (sud), où les chrétiens sont l'objet de violences. Son corps dénudé a été trouvé jeudi matin sur une route menant à sa paroisse. Il aurait été tué en regagnant sa paroisse après avoir célébré un enterrement dans un village voisin. L'évêque du diocèse, Mgr Lawrence Mukkuzhy, n'a avancé aucune hypothèse mais a exclu "un crime crapuleux". Pour un autre responsable du diocèse, il s'agit d'une exécution. Il a précisé que le corps ne présentait pas de blessure apparente et que des éléments laissaient penser que le religieux avait été étouffé. Une autopsie devrait être pratiquée prochainement pour déterminer les causes de la mort.

L'association des Indiens chrétiens a demandé l'ouverture d'une enquête sur cet assassinat et sur d'autres attaques contre des chrétiens dans la région. Vingt églises et chapelles avaient été détruites l'année dernière dans des violences dans le Karnataka au moment où, dans l'Etat d'Orissa (est), des attaques menées par des hindous avaient fait 35 morts, provoqué la fuite de dizaines de milliers de villageois après l'incendie d'un demi-millier de maisons et de dizaines d'églises et paroisses.

La ville de Marseille a rendu vendredi hommage à l'écrivain et célèbre aviateur Antoine de Saint-Exupéry au cours d'une cérémonie en mer, à l'occasion du 65e anniversaire de sa disparition survenue en 1944 au large des côtes de la cité phocéenne.

Quelque 400 personnes, dont le maire de Marseille Jean-Claude Gaudin (UMP) et le secrétaire d'Etat à la Défense et aux anciens combattants Hubert Falco, embarquées à bord de trois bateaux dont l'Orion, chasseur de mines de la Marine nationale, ont participé à un hommage au cours duquel plusieurs couronnes à la mémoire de l'écrivain ont été lancées à la mer, au large de Marseille.

Two studies from experts at the Health Protection Agency (HPA) showed a "high proportion" of British schoolchildren reporting problems after taking the anti-viral drug. 

Data was gathered from children at three schools in London and one in the South West who were given Tamiflu earlier this year after classmates became infected. More...

Bolivia bans all circus animals...

Bolivia has enacted what animal rights activists are calling the world's first ban on all animals in circuses.

A handful of other countries have banned the use of wild animals in circuses, but the Bolivian ban includes domestic animals as well.

The law, which states that the use of animals in circuses "constitutes an act of cruelty", took effect on 1 July with operators given a year to comply, according to the bill's sponsor, Ximena Flores.

The law was proposed after an undercover investigation by the nonprofit-making London-based group Animal Defenders International (ADI) found widespread abuse in circuses operating in Bolivia. More...

File-sharer 'violated copyright' and risks hefty fine...

A US student could face $4.5m (£2.8m) in fines following a federal court ruling that he violated copyright law for sharing music files online.

The jury must now decide on the amount of damages it will award to the four recording labels that are suing him. 

Joel Tenenbaum admitted on the witness stand on Thursday that he had used file-sharing sites both to download and upload hundreds of songs. 

It is only the second music-downloading suit to go to trial in the US. More...

Indian workers stranded in Jeddah, living under a bridge...

A few hundred Indians, including many Tamils and women, are “stranded” and living under a bridge in the Saudi Arabian city of Jeddah for the last few days, according to D. Ravikumar, Member of the Tamil Nadu Assembly.

Although the issue had been raised by Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi leader Thol. Thirumavalavan, MP, with the Ministry of External Affairs and the Ministry of Overseas Indian Affairs, no action is taken, he says.

Mr. Ravikumar told The Hindu here on Thursday that he received a call from Jeddah on Monday from an acquaintance who said that nearly 2,000 Indians, including around 400 Tamils and 400 women, were living under a bridge for more than a month. More...

Debbie Purdy wins assisted suicide prosecution battle...

Britian's highest court issued a historic judgment today that could finally remove the fear of prosecution from people who travel abroad to support relatives seeking an assisted suicide.

In a unanimous ruling, the law lords ordered the director of public prosecutions to immediately draw up a policy that would spell out when prosecutions would and would not be pursued.

The ruling was strongly in favour of Debbie Purdy, 46, who has multiple sclerosis and who has been fighting to protect her husband should he accompany her to a clinic in Switzerland that specialises in euthanasia. She had argued that the law was unclear and uncertainty surrounding the issue breached her human rights. More...

But as they head to the forest to graze no human herder accompanies them.

Gaza children claim kite-flying world record...

Thousands of children in the Gaza Strip attempted to set a new world record Thursday by flying colorful homemade kites amid the ruins of Israel's offensive earlier this year. 

The event, sponsored by the United Nations, brought some 6,000 campers in orange uniforms and blue caps to a beach in Gaza's war-torn north, where they released their kites into clear skies. Some included designs such as the red, green, black and white Palestinian flag. 

"We are happy we came here, full of joy, full of life, said 11-year-old Marwan Mohammad. We hope that we can be free and can enjoy the same freedom these kites enjoy in the air. All we are looking for is to grow up like normal children." More...

Anwar Ibrahim, Malaysia's chameleon...

ONE evening in mid-July Anwar Ibrahim was deep in the rubber-tapping state of Kelantan in northern Malaysia, urging a crowd of rural folk to vote for a devout fishmonger. The candidate was from the conservative Islamic Party (PAS). A tiny by-election for the state assembly PAS already dominates is ordinarily small beer (or would be, if PAS allowed such a beverage, which it does not). But Mr Anwar needs PAS. For the paradox is that without the Islamists, the alliance he leads of Malay modernisers, Indians and secular Chinese has little chance of driving the ruling United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) from power. The coalition that UMNO dominates has ruled Malaysia since independence in 1957. Mr Anwar longs for UMNO’s destruction. The feeling is mutual. More...

Men at Work loses first stage of copyright lawsuit for "Down Under..."

A music publisher that has accused Australian band Men at Work of stealing the melody to their 1980s smash hit "Down Under" from a campfire song won the first stage of its lawsuit on Thursday seeking royalties from the Aussie anthem.

A federal judge ruled that publisher Larrikin Music owns the copyright to the tune of "Kookaburra Sits in the Old Gum Tree" - a Girl Guide favorite from New Zealand to Canada. The judge's ruling clears the way for a further hearing about whether Men at Work is guilty of copyright infringement. More...

Ten things you're not supposed to know about the swine flu vaccine...

Let's not beat around the bush on this issue: The swine flu vaccines now being prepared for mass injection into infants, children, teens and adults have never been tested and won't be tested before the injections begin. In Europe, where flu vaccines are typically tested on hundreds (or thousands) of people before being unleashed on the masses, the European Medicines Agency is allowing companies to skip the testing process entirely.

And yet, amazingly, people are lining up to take the vaccine, absent any safety testing whatsoever. When the National Institutes of Health in the U.S. announced a swine flu vaccine trial beginning in early August, it was inundated with phone calls and emails from people desperate to play the role of human guinea pigs. The power of fear to herd sheeple into vaccine injections is simply amazing. More...

Indian court convicts five more for Orissa anti-Christian violence...

An Indian court has sentenced another five persons to six years in prison for the second time in a month for their involvement in violence against Christians in Orissa a year ago.

The men were found guilty of setting houses on fire and engaging in unlawful assembly in their village, Salaguda, on September 13, 2008, when the riots were at their peak.

(...)

Anti-Christian violence broke out in Orissa after a Hindu fundamentalist leader, Laxmananda Saraswati, was murdered in August 2008. Hindus blamed Christians for killing Saraswati even though Maoist rebels publicly claimed responsibility.

Following the swami’s death, Hindu mobs attacked Christians, burning their homes, shops, churches and orphanages. More than 30,000 Christians from Orissa were forced to take shelter in refugee camps, where the living conditions were poor, or in the jungle, where they were in danger of being attacked by wild animals.

Looking to Liberia for answers about parents ashamed of their 8-year-old daughter raped by 4 boys in Arizona...

The allegation is shocking: an 8-year-old girl lured to a storage shed with the promise of chewing gum, pinned down and sexually assaulted by four boys, none of them older than 14.

The response from the girl's family sent a second and equally stunning shockwave through their Phoenix, Arizona, community: "The parents felt that they had been shamed or embarrassed by their child," reported Phoenix police Sgt. Andy Hill.

As a result, the girl was taken into custody by Arizona's child welfare agency. More...

And savings of $1 billion a year could be made if problems including hospital-borne infections, medication mix-ups, drug side effects and patient falls were only halved.

China to reduce number of executions?

China is to reduce the number of executions it carries out every year to "an extremely small level", an official said yesterday as the country retained its position at the top of world execution lists.

Zhang Jun, vice-president of the Supreme People's Court (SPC), said the court would impose more suspended death sentences in the future.

Student files lawsuit after coach distributed private Facebook content...

A Mississippi high school student is suing her school district after a teacher logged into the student's social networking account and distributed information that embarrassed her and led to her removal from the team.

Through her parents, Mandi Jackson, a student at Pearl High School in Pearl, Miss., filed suit against the district on June 16 in the U.S. District Court of the Southern District of Mississippi, claming the incident violated her constitutional rights to free speech and privacy, among others.

On Sept. 10, 2007, Pearl High School cheerleading coach Tommie Hill required each member of the cheerleading squad to reveal the passwords to their Facebook accounts, according to the suit. More...

Italian nun finds naked photos of herself in Facebook!!!

An Italian nun had to sue her cunning ex-boyfriend after he posted her naked pictures on Facebook, and refused to remove them.

The 31-year-old nun, from Turin, Italy, said that she was devastated when she saw the pictures on the social networking site.

The photographs were taken in summer 2006, during a holiday in Sicily.

The man, who said that he wanted to stop her becoming a nun, has refused to remove the pictures despite the woman's requests.

And thus, the nun's lawyer Anna Orecchioni has taken the reins of the matter in her hand.

"My client doesn't want money, she only wants that he respects her decision to become a nun," the Daily Telegraph quoted her as saying.

Meanwhile, Italians are flocking the site in large numbers to see the pictures, leaving comments like: "If all the nuns are like that, I want to become a priest."

Une religieuse cherche à faire retirer les photos d'elle nue de Facebook!!!

Cette religieuse novice italienne de 31 ans a découvert des photos de ses vacances en Sicile… sur Facebook, raconte 24heures.ch.

Problème: on la voit nue sur ces photos, prises par son ex-petit ami en 2006.

En publiant ces photos, il avait l’intention d’empêcher la jeune femme d’entrer dans les ordres.

Mais elle n'a pas changé d'avis. La religieuse a tenté d’obtenir, à l’amiable, le retrait des photos "osées".

N’y parvenant pas, elle a engagé un avocat et poursuit son ex en justice, sans pour autant demander d'argent. Elle souhaite juste le retrait des photos, précise 24heures.ch.

Sur Facebook, les photos ne sont pas passées inaperçues. Les commentaires parlent d'eux-mêmes: « Si toutes les religieuses sont comme ça, je veux bien me faire prêtre ».

Les membres du parlement indien ont réclamé lundi la mise en place d'un nouvel organisme de contrôle des programmes télévisés, une semaine après l'envoi par la ministre de l'Information et de l'Audiovisuel Ambika Soni d'un avertissement à la chaîne Star Plus pour non respect du règlement audiovisuel.

A Gaza man is being held on suspicion he bludgeoned his daughter with an iron chain, cracking her skull in a particularly brutal family "honor killing," two human rights groups said Wednesday, citing police and forensics reports.
The groups' reports said that the assault was triggered by Jawdat Najjar's discovery that his daughter Fadia - a 27-year-old divorced mother of five - owned a cell phone. He suspected she used it to speak to a man outside the family, according to the groups' reports. More...

Don't waste your money on organic food...

Organic food has no nutritional or health benefits over ordinary food, according to a major study published Wednesday.

Researchers from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine said consumers were paying higher prices for organic food because of its perceived health benefits, creating a global organic market worth an estimated $48 billion in 2007.

A systematic review of 162 scientific papers published in the scientific literature over the last 50 years, however, found there was no significant difference. More...

Anger over British civil service jobs outsourced to India...

The British Council is planning to outsource more than 100 jobs to India to cut costs.

It is planning to get rid of 500 British jobs and recruit local Indian workers to fill finance and IT posts as part of a huge cost-cutting drive. 

The move is believed to be the first time the Civil Service has outsourced jobs overseas.

It has infuriated unions who fear that other Government departments will follow suit.

The council - which is responsible for promoting British culture and language abroad - said that 500 of its 1,300 British workers would have to go in the next 18 months to save £45million. More...

The decision to circulate a 1941 photo featuring the Nazi dictator sitting with the then grand mufti of Jerusalem Amin al-Husseini is aimed at easing pressure on Israel over a construction project on land in annexed east Jerusalem once owned by the cleric, [an Israeli] official told AFP. More...

Nous sommes espionnés ( Les «écoutes» explosent avec l'informatique.)

Ces dernières années, le recours aux interceptions de communications, les fameuses « écoutes », a progressé de façon spectaculaire en France. Les seules écoutes téléphoniques judiciaires (réservées aux enquêtes concernant la grande délinquance) ont augmenté de 440 % entre 2001 et 2008, passant de 5 845 en 2001 à 26 000 en 2008, selon Claudine Guerrier.

Dans le contexte anxiogène de l'après le 11-Septembre qui a déclenché la montée de la pression sécuritaire, cette explosion a été décuplée par l'amélioration des technologies qui permettent un contrôle accru et planétaire. Suite...

School in Tamil Nadu, India, uses kids as props for stunt...

In a shocking incident, a government elementary school in Villupuram district recently organised an event that exposed school children to serious harm — in the name of celebrations to mark the birth centenary of the former Tamil Nadu chief minister K Kamaraj.

It was meant to be a ‘bravery show’ but it resulted in gross violation of children’s rights, virtually putting them at risk of incurring serious injury. The show began with students displaying their karate skills. Then came the main event — a motorcyclist riding over the outstretched hands of students from class I to V lying prone on the ground, and later the bike going over a plank placed over a girl.

Swine flu and the panic pandemic...

According to the Health Minister, Andy Burnham, the Swine Flu pandemic has led to a pandemic of public panic. Those of us who like to keep a step ahead of the pack are already even further down the line of hysteria, Andy. 

The implications of a panic pandemic are that you won’t be able to find a hospital bed or dose of Tamiflu for love or money. No matter what you have, the doctor will refuse to call out to see you either because he’s scared of picking up what you have, or because new EU regulations have informed him it’s already knocking off time.
