MISCELLANY
We admit it -- we get wrapped up in our work. Even when we're not feeling so great, there are deadlines to meet - things that can't move forward without us - and the fear of getting behind keeps us going even when we feel lousy. It's easy to see how it happens in this "always-on" culture, and so it's probably no different for you, either. Our own Google doctor at our Mountain View, Calif. headquarters, Dr. Taraneh Razavi, recently reminded us -- and you! -- to stay home when you're sick. As she notes in a recent Google Blog post, it's not just at Google that this working-while-sick phenomenon goes on, to the benefit of no one, least of all the lousy-feeling person and their immediate co-workers. So whether you've got flu-like symptoms, a bad cough, or a wearying head cold, consider this a reminder to nurse yourself back to health -- at home. Chances are you'll heal more quickly and your colleagues will thank you. There will always be another work deadline. Why not make one for yourself -- to get better?

"Strange Owl" seen in wild for first time
A tiny bird so rare and unusual that its scientific name means "strange owl" has been spotted for the first time in the wild, scientists announced yesterday.Conservationists working in Peru got their first natural glimpse of the long-whiskered owlet last month while working in a private mountain reserve.
The species wasn't even known to exist until 1976, and since then the only known living specimens have been those caught in nets at night.
"Seeing the long-whiskered owlet is a huge thrill," said David Geale of Asociación Ecosistemas Andinos, who was part of the research team, in a press statement.
The American Bird Conservancy, which partnered in the research, described the sighting as "a holy grail" of bird biology.
As few as 250 of the owlets are thought to exist, scientists said, and the birds are as distinctive as they are rare.
With their diminutive size, bright orange eyes, and wild, wispy facial feathers, the dainty birds belong to their own genus, dubbed Xenoglaux, or "strange owl."
The owlets owe much of their survival to the remoteness of their dense mountain habitat, the researchers said. But as human activity encroaches on Peru's northern forests, the birds' future looks dimmer.
"Due to the rapid destruction of its forest habitat and its tiny range, it is inferred that the species is in serious decline," Geale said.
"Until recently, the owlets key habitat was completely unprotected."

U.S. man found innocent, freed after decade in prison
U.S. man found innocent, freed after decade in prison:
ST. LOUIS: After more than a decade in prison, a 41-year-old man was freed Thursday when a Missouri judge found he was not guilty of the carjacking for which he had been convicted.Related post: news, prison, crime, odd, free
Antonio Beaver was exonerated based on DNA analysis that was not available when the robbery was committed. Tests determined the blood at the crime scene was not Beaver's.
An hour after arriving in court wearing an orange prison jump suit, Beaver was wearing a sport coat and slacks, talking to reporters during his first moments of freedom.
"This feels strange," Beaver said. "I'd like to give my thanks to God, because there is a God and he knew I was innocent from the start."
Beaver filed his own motion for a post-conviction DNA test in 2001. He was later assisted by The Innocence Project, a New York-based legal center that seeks to uncover wrongful convictions.
St. Louis Circuit Attorney Jennifer Joyce, who filed a joint request seeking Beaver's release, choked back tears and told Beaver her office would help him re-enter society.
"I am personally very distressed to see a case such as this," said Joyce, promising to help Beaver seek compensation from the state under a new Missouri law that pays inmates exonerated of crimes.
Beaver could be paid up to $50 (€37.5) for each day he spent in prison, roughly $193,000 (€144,547) in all.
Beaver said the money could not replace all he has lost.
"I just about lost connection with my sons. They're grown now," he said. "I wanted to be a father to them, but I couldn't. That was took from me."
Beaver had been convicted of robbery in 1997 and sentenced to 18 years in prison.
During the carjacking, someone threatened a woman with a screwdriver. The woman stabbed the man with the screwdriver, leaving traces of his blood in the car. The victim later identified Beaver in a lineup, but his lawyers now say that lineup was flawed.
Joyce said authorities have identified a new suspect in the case. He already is incarcerated for another crime, but she would not give details.
Yahoo! Mail to offer unlimited space
Yahoo will begin offering unlimited storage for its free Web-based e-mail in May, the company announced late Tuesday. The move makes Yahoo the first of the major free e-mail providers to offer unlimited storage, but it likely will not be the last.Yahoo currently offers 1 gigabyte for its free mail service and 2GB for its premium fee-based service. Google's free Gmail service offers more than 2.5GB of storage, and Windows Live Hotmail offers 2GB for free.
"We are watching the trend lines of how people are using e-mail...and they are sending more photos and videos and rich media," said John Kremer, vice president of Yahoo Mail.
Google began the storage wars in earnest when it launched Gmail in April 2004 with 1GB of storage. Yahoo Mail, which launched in 1997 with 4MB of storage, upgraded to 100MB of storage shortly after Google's Gmail announcement, bumped it up to 250MB in late 2004, and then up to 1GB in 2005.
With 250 million users, Yahoo Mail is the largest global e-mail provider and the largest in the U.S., according to comScore.
The unlimited storage will begin rolling out globally in May, and Yahoo expects to have all of its customers covered within a month, except for China and Japan. "We will continue working with these markets on their storage plans," Kremer said.

Dad says 2-year-old son shot him in arm:
Related post: news, yahoo, odd, crime, baby
MINNEAPOLIS - Minneapolis police are trying to find out how a 2-year-old boy allegedly ended up with a gun and shot his father. The 24-year-old man walked into Abbott Northwestern Hospital last Saturday with a gunshot wound to his arm. The man told police that his 2-year-old son had taken the gun from his mother's purse and fired it at him.p/s: kecik2 dah pandai ...
"I cannot think of the last time a 2-year-old was involved in a shooting," Lt. Amelia Huffman, a police spokeswoman, said Tuesday. "It's a pretty rare thing, thankfully."
Huffman said the 22-year-old mother was home but not in the room at the time. A 4-year-old child also was in the house, but there was no other witness to the shooting.
Police were investigating whether there was any child endangerment, since the 2-year-old apparently was able to reach a gun. No was arrested or charged.
The type of gun involved wasn't disclosed.
However, Joe Penaz, who teaches local gun safety classes at gun clubs and gun stores, said that it was possible for a small child to fire a gun if it was an automatic, which are as light as 7 ounces.
"Women seem to gravitate to small automatics," he said. Penaz said he carries an automatic that requires only 16 ounces of pressure on the trigger to fire.
Huffman said the incident underscores the importance of safety when a gun is in a household. "If you keep a firearm, keep it locked up," she said.

Hina wanita bertudung
Harian Metro Online (Malaysia):
p/s: sapa lah punya kerja nih :-(
Related post: berita, metro, lucah, blog, melayu
KUALA LUMPUR: Mengaibkan! Begitulah tindakan seorang pengendali laman web tidak bermoral, tergamak memanipulasikan gadis bertudung termasuk aksi seks seorang guru wanita dan pasangan dipercayai sebagai ‘pelaris’ untuk ‘memancing’ pengguna internet tempatan.
Pengendali laman web itu memaparkan gambar adegan seks berkenaan menerusi laman webnya yang mencalar imej gadis atau perempuan Melayu beragama Islam, malah lebih kronik lagi, dia mengaitkan ‘kebodohan’ gadis Melayu dan ‘kelemahan’ lelaki Melayu gagal membela nasib wanita Melayu itu.
Persoalannya, pengendali laman web itu seperti terlepas pandangan pihak berkuasa sungguhpun dengan jelas menjaja bahan lucah dan menjijikkan membabitkan wanita Melayu kepada pelayar web secara percuma.
Justeru, tidak hairan laman web itu mendapat sambutan luar biasa pengguna internet yang ‘gila seks’ sekali gus membolehkan ia sentiasa tersenarai dalam 10 daripada 15 laman web terbaik dan mendapat akses tertinggi di kalangan pengguna internet.
Lebih membimbangkan, pengendali laman web itu turut memberi restu kepada kanak-kanak bawah umur untuk melayari laman web berkenaan dengan mendakwa pemaparan adegan seks dan gambar bogel gadis Melayu itu semata-mata untuk memberi pengajaran.
“Web blog ini dibina bukan untuk memalukan kaum Melayu. Web ini untuk memberi pengajaran kepada sesiapa sahaja. Dibuka kepada semua lapisan umur. Sebarang kerosakan ke atas komputer anda kami tidak bertanggung jawab,” katanya.
Pemerhatian Harian Metro mendapati pengunjung begitu mudah mengaksesnya dan pelbagai gambar lucah membabitkan adegan seks berahi gadis Melayu bersama pasangan disajikan ketika pertama kali mengunjunginya, tanpa sekatan.
Antara kolum yang mendapat perhatian termasuk,‘Banci Seks, Seks Sebelum Kahwin Terjadi Sebab ??, Ghairah Sangat, Wajib Dilakukan, Ingin Cuba, Tak Tahu Malu, Boleh Dilakukan, Takut Pasangan Curang, Sebagai Tanda Cinta, Saja Gatal dan Halal.
Laman web bertajuk ‘Lembah Seks-Malaysia Boleh-Melayu Boleh’ itu memaklumkan paparan gambar aksi seks membabitkan pasangan kekasih adalah dianggap sebagai rujukan dan pengajaran kepada pelayar internet termasuk himpunan video klip lucah sepanjang tahun lalu dan awal tahun ini.
Pemerhatian juga menunjukkan laman web itu seperti menghina Islam dan penganutnya apabila mencampur adukkan paparan waktu solat yang diletakkan bersebelahan gambar bogel gadis Melayu dalam pelbagai aksi.
Namun, pengendali web itu seperti ‘membaling batu sembunyi tangan’ apabila berselindung di sebalik identiti palsu, biarpun mendakwa pembela gadis Melayu.
Pengendali laman web itu memaparkan dirinya sebagai wanita terbabit secara langsung dalam industri komunikasi dan media di luar negara iaitu di Bouvet Island di Lautan Atlantik Selatan.
Pemerhatian juga mendapati sambutan begitu menggalakkan disebabkan pengendali web ini memperbaharui ‘isi kandungan’ setiap hari.
Setiap gambar atau video disertakan dengan komen lucah dan merapu bertujuan ‘memancing’ pelayar internet melayarinya.
Laman web ini juga dibina dengan perancangan rapi serta memasukkan bancian pengunjung laman web itu yang menerima undian tidak kurang 2,000 setiap hari.

"Dead" Malaysian returns home after two years
"Dead" Malaysian returns home after two years - Yahoo! News:
KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - A man mistakenly certified as dead following a horrific motorcycle accident two years ago was reunited with his family last week after a social worker helped to identify him through thumbprints.Related post: news, yahoo, odd, dead, malaysia
S Samy Pillai, 50, was believed to have been killed in a hit-and-run accident in June 2005, after his wrecked motorcycle was found along the same stretch of road as a body mangled beyond recognition, the Star newspaper said.
But he was found to be alive, although speechless and partly paralysed by the accident, after a social worker encountered him hobbling around on crutches about 300 km from his home and took him to authorities, who identified him from his thumbprints.
Last Tuesday, Pillai's wife, K Letchumy, 42, confirmed the man was her husband, but how he spent his years away from home is a mystery. The couple have 9 children, the paper said.
"I am glad Samy Pillai has been reunited with his family who had all this while thought the unidentified body had been his," the paper quoted Andrew Raju, the social worker, as saying.
"They even conducted prayers according to Christian rites."

Terlindung mentari, Gerhana sang bulan
Warna suram maya, gelora maya
Terlihat sembunyi yg dulu
Menangis menanti hari ini
Setiap masa menunggu waktu
Bersinar mentari, Bercahaya rembulan
Warna pilu maya, terlihat wajah
Kesan cinta lalu, menangis diri ini
Sesal aku meniti hidup

Ethnic cleansing with no defending
These acts of genocide
A fatal ending with no surrendering
To cover up the crimes and lie
Smart bombs, precision guided armament
A more sophisticated way to end up dead
Still we search and invent such intelligent weapons
That kill each other like the Gears of War
Hoo-rah!!!
If you ride with thieves, then you die with thieves
Cross my heart and hope that you die, that you die!
When the smoke has cleared, the devil's in the mirror
And you see his warheads paint the sky, now you die!
Smart bombs, precision guided armament
A more sophisticated way to end up dead
Still we search and invent such intelligent weapons
That kill each other like the Gears of War
Hoo-rah!!!

A woman who called Napier police this morning to report a burglary became so upset she broke down in tears - although the police communications officer who took the initial call couldn't stop smiling.
The call left senior sergeant Mal Lochrie shaking his head as he explained that the woman had called to report the theft of three marijuana plants which she had growing in pots outside.
She also bitterly complained that it was the fourth year in a row someone had sneaked on to her Ahuriri property and made off with her marijuana plants.
Mr Lochrie said the woman told the communications operator she was a good person and was sick and tired of "low-lifes" stealing her things.
"The community constable is going around to see her later to have a bit of a chat," Mr Lochrie said.

Within Temptation - What Have You Done - 2007 (video)
Lyrics
Would you mind if I hurt you
Understand that I need to
Wish that I had other choices
Than to harm the one I love
What have you done now
I know I'd better stop trying
You know that there's no denying
I won't show mercy on you now
I know I should stop believing
I know that there's no retrieving
It's over now
What have you done
What have you done now
I, I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are slipping away
What have you done now
Why, Why does fate make us suffer
There's a curse between us
Between me and you
What have you done x4
What have you done now
What have you done x4
What have you done now
Would you mind if I killed you
Would you mind if I tried to
Cause you have turned into my worst enemy
You carry hate that I feel
It's over now
What have you done
What have you done now
I, I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are slipping away
What have you done now
Why, Why does fate make us suffer
There's a curse between us
Between me and you
What have you done x4
What have you done now
What have you done x4
What have you done now
I will not fall
Won't let it go
We will be free
When it ends
I, I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are slipping away
What have you done now
Why, Why does fate make us suffer
There's a curse between us
Between me and you
I, I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are slipping away
What have you done now
Why, Why does fate make us suffer
There's a curse between us
Between me and you

Megadeth - A Tout Le Monde [ mp3 + lyrics ]
Megadeth - A Tout Le MondeDon't remember where I was
I realized life was a game
The more seriously I took things
The harder the rules became
I had no idea what it'd cost
My life passed before my eyes
I found out how little I accomplished
All my plans denied
So as you read this know my friends
I'd love to stay with you all
Please smile when you think of me
My body's gone that's all
A tout le monde (To all the world)
A tous mes amis (To all my friends)
Je vous aime (I love you)
Je dois partir (I have to leave)
These are the last words
I'll ever speak
And they'll set me free
If my heart was still alive
I know it would surely break
And my memories left with you
There's nothing more to say
Moving on is a simple thing
What it leaves behind is hard
You know the sleeping feel no more pain
And the living are scarred

Rio de Janeiro - After a 23-year-long stomach ache, a Brazilian woman finally discovered the cause of her suffering - a scalpel had been left in her stomach.p/s: perghh ... lepas 23 tahun tu ...
Local media reports said on Monday that a knife had been found in Maria Abadia Dias' lower abdomen after doctors took an X-ray in the central Brazilian town of Goiania, in the state of Goias.
The five-centimetre-long scalpel was apparently left there by doctors in a public hospital in Campos Belos, Goias in 1984, when the woman, now 47, gave birth through a C-section.
The surgical instrument is to be removed sometime later this month. The woman has said she will sue the hospital in Campos Belos as soon as she is rid of the scalpel.
"Doctors always told me that I had nothing and that it was only a question of age," the woman said of her persistent stomach pain. - Sapa-dpa

Maruah RM15
Maruah RM15:
KUALA SELANGOR: Hanya kerana wang RM15, seorang gadis yang juga pelajar kolej swasta tergadai maruah diri apabila diperkosa bergilir-gilir lebih enam lelaki yang juga rakan kuliahnya sendiri.Related post: berita, malaysia, selangor, rogol, metro, lucah
Mangsa yang berusia awal 20-an itu pada mulanya dikatakan cuba meminta wang berkenaan daripada kekasihnya, tetapi lelaki itu didakwa meminta ganjaran seks.
Berikutan itu, mangsa menyerahkan kehormatan dirinya kepada kekasihnya di sebuah rumah kosong di Tanjung Karang, dekat sini, pertengahan Februari lalu.
Sumber polis berkata, bagaimanapun sejurus selesai melakukan hubungan seks, dua lagi rakan mangsa muncul di rumah kosong itu dan mengugut mahu membocorkan perlakuan sumbang mereka kepada orang ramai.
“Mangsa kemudian diminta membenarkan tubuhnya diperkosa kedua-dua lelaki terbabit jika tidak mahu rahsianya didedahkan,” katanya.
Menurutnya, mangsa yang ketakutan dan malu jika perbuatan itu diketahui rakan lain serta keluarga, terpaksa menuruti kehendak dua lelaki terbabit.
“Kes itu berulang lagi pada hari kedua apabila suspek bersama dua rakannya mengugut mangsa dengan alasan sama. Mangsa yang ketakutan terpaksa mengikuti suspek ke rumah kosong berkenaan sebelum dirogol beramai-ramai sekali lagi,” katanya.
Keesokannya, suspek bersama lima rakan kolej mangsa sekali lagi datang mengugut mangsa sebelum merogolnya berulang kali di tempat sama bermula petang hingga malam.
Kejadian itu menyebabkan mangsa trauma dan tertekan sebelum menceritakannya kepada seorang tenaga pengajar kolej berkenaan. Dia kemudian dinasihatkan membuat laporan polis.
“Polis Kuala Selangor menerima laporan kes pada 21 Februari tapi tidak dapat menahan suspek kerana pelajar kolej itu sedang bercuti.
“Setakat ini, lima pelajar berusia awal 20-an itu termasuk teman lelaki mangsa sudah ditahan sebaik mereka kembali ke kolej selepas tamat cuti sempena sambutan Tahun Baru Cina semalam (kelmarin).
“Siasatan juga dijalankan sama ada teman lelaki mangsa merancang kejadian itu atau dia tidak mempunyai kaitan dengan kumpulan lain yang merogol mangsa,” katanya.
Kumpulan pelajar itu dihadapkan ke Mahkamah Majistret Kuala Selangor pagi semalam dan diperintahkan ditahan reman selama 10 hari untuk membantu siasatan.
Kes itu disiasat mengikut Seksyen 376 Kanun Keseksaan kerana kesalahan merogol yang memperuntukkan hukuman penjara minimum 10 tahun dan sebatan jika sabit kesalahan.
Selepas membuat laporan, mangsa dibawa ke Hospital Tanjung Karang untuk pemeriksaan dan disahkan dirogol. Dia kini menjalani kaunseling bagi mengatasi masalah trauma dan tekanan perasaan.
Penangkapan itu menyebabkan semua suspek tidak dapat menduduki peperiksaan semester yang dijadualkan dalam masa terdekat.
Malah, difahamkan nama semua suspek digugurkan daripada menduduki peperiksaan kerana disyaki terbabit dalam jenayah berkenaan.
Polis sedang meneruskan usaha memburu seorang lagi suspek yang dipercayai masih bebas.
