Mother 'watched toddler die in agony'

Wednesday, January 14 12:33 pm

A woman watched her two-year-old daughter deteriorate and die in severe pain after a four-week campaign of abuse, a court has heard. Skip related content

Little Sanam Navsarka suffered more than 100 injuries and had fractures to all her limbs when she died in May last year.

Zahbeena Navsarka and Subhan Anwar, both 21, from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, are charged with murdering the "vulnerable and defenceless" toddler.

The couple are accused of repeatedly assaulting Sanam over a month-long period or encouraging each other by standing by and doing nothing to save the little girl.

Continuing the prosecution's opening of the case at Bradford Crown Court, Julian Goose QC said: "Sanam died as a result of really serious injuries, deliberately inflicted upon her, over a period of up to four weeks before her death.

"It was not over a short period of time, it was not unexpected or unpredictable. It was over a long time as they both watched that two-year-old little girl in severe pain deteriorate until she died."

He added: "The defendants either inflicted that violence upon her together or one encouraged the other, standing by and doing nothing over all those weeks whilst she was being repeatedly assaulted and severely injured.

"The conduct of the defendants, together, when they saw her deteriorate was from a normal, happy child to one in severe pain, unable to walk and suffering regular fits."

The jury of six men and six women were told that the defendants left Sanam alone and dying in their home while they went to register with their GP on the day of her death.

The court also heard how tiny handprints and bloodstains were found inside cupboards at the home in Huddersfield and also at a former property in Batley, West Yorkshire.

Anwar, who is not Sanam's father, admitted to police after his arrest that he put the girl in the cupboard as a punishment and said Navsarka punished her in the same way.

When the couple were interviewed by police after Sanam's death on May 8, 2008, they blamed each other for the injuries Sanam had suffered and both claimed to be frightened of the other, Mr Goose said.

The court has heard how Sanam was found to have 107 separate external injuries when she died.

Both her thigh bones had been fractured, causing fatty deposits to enter her bloodstream and resulting in her death, and she had fractures to both her arms.

The couple claimed Sanam had stopped breathing after they left her alone in the bath for ten minutes and returned to find her under the water.

But a pathologist who conducted a post-mortem examination on Sanam ruled out drowning as a cause of death.

Both deny murder and Anwar also denies a charge of causing or allowing the death of a child.

Navsarka has admitted an alternative charge of failing to protect Sanam.

Dedicated to my friend:

Controversially, I made this video for my friend Nelly’s debate and her mysterious challenge about one of her painting she did for a smiling face of a singer from Montreal (Amanda Mabro) that was banned on a flimsier notion due to a capricious and mean reaction of this questionable and believed diva.

Nat King Cole’s song; Mona Lisa is an Academy Award-winning song written by Ray Evans and Jay Livingston for the Paramount Pictures film Captain Carey, U.S.A. (1950).

The soundtrack version by Nat King Cole spent 8 weeks as number 1 in the Billboard chart in the USA in 1950.

Also, Cole's version of the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1992. In 1987, it was used as the theme of the British film Mona Lisa. An unaccredited version of Mona Lisa plays in the background of one scene in Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window (1954).

The famous painting: Mona Lisa (also known as La Giaconda) is a 16th century portrait painted in oil on a poplar panel by Leonardo da Vinci throughout the Italian Renaissance. The work is owned by the French government and hangs in the Musée du Louvre in Paris, France with the title Portrait of Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giaconda.

The painting is a half-length portrait and depicts a woman whose expression is often described as enigmatic.

The ambiguity of the sitter's expression, the monumentality of the half-figure composition, and the subtle modelling of forms and atmospheric illusion were novel qualities that have contributed to the painting's continuing fascination. Few other works of art have been subject to as much scrutiny, study, mythologising and parody.

Madame Tussauds is a famous wax museum in London with branches in a number of major cities. It was set up by wax sculptor Marie Tussaud. The museum moved to its current location on Marylebone Road in 1884. In 1925 a fire destroyed many of the figures, but the moulds survived, allowing the historical waxworks to be remade.

Hitler wax figure unveiled in Berlin amid criticism

Thu Jul 3, 2008 2:05pm BST

By Madeline Chambers

BERLIN (Reuters) - Berlin's new waxwork museum on Thursday unveiled a figure of a glum-looking Adolf Hitler in a mock bunker during the last days of his life, an exhibit that has been criticised as in bad taste.

The row over the figure overshadowed the media preview of the new branch of Madame Tussauds which opens its doors to the public on Saturday.

Critics say it is inappropriate to display the Nazi dictator, who started World War Two and ordered the extermination of Europe's Jews, in a museum alongside celebrities, pop stars, world statesmen and sporting heroes.

"Of course the figure will arouse interest but we hope people will realise he is part of an exhibition with a range of attractions," said Meike Schulze, head of Midway Attractions in Germany which is responsible for Madame Tussauds here.

"It will be a shame if he dominates everything."

Her plea appeared to be falling on deaf ears.

About 200 reporters and cameramen all but ignored U.S. President George W. Bush, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, plus the likes of Beethoven, Albert Einstein, Madonna and Brad Pitt.

Instead, they pushed and jostled to peer into a dark corner where the unmistakable figure of Hitler is seated.

Dressed in a grey suit, Hitler gazes downwards with a despondent stare, his arm outstretched on a large wooden table with map of Europe on the wall of his gloomy bunker.

"We wanted to show him like this, in the last days of his life," said Schulze who defended the decision to put him on show, saying market research had shown there was demand for his inclusion, as long his portrayal was sensitive.

About 25 workers spent about four months on the waxwork, using more than 2,000 pictures and pieces of archive material and also guided by a model of the "Fuehrer" in the London branch of Madame Tussauds where he is standing upright.

It is illegal in Germany to show Nazi symbols and art glorifying Hitler and the exhibit is cordoned off to stop visitors posing with him.

Unobtrusive signs ask visitors to refrain from taking photos or posing with Hitler "out of respect for the millions of people who died during World War Two". Camera surveillance and museum officials will stop inappropriate behaviour, said Schulze.

Institutions such as the foundation for Germany's central Holocaust memorial site have condemned the idea of the exhibit as tasteless, saying it had been included to generate business.

However, the wax figure is the latest in a gradual breaking down of taboos about Hitler in Germany more than 60 after the end of the war and the Holocaust in which some 6 million Jews were killed.

The 2004 film "Downfall" provoked controversy as it portrayed the leader in a human light during the last days of his life and last year a satire about Hitler by Swiss-born Jewish director Dani Levy was released in Germany.

Lily Allen has revealed that she will quit making music if her second album is not well-received. The pink-haired singer is worried that the follow-up to her debut album, 'Alright', 'Still', will show that her success has been a fluke.

She told Rolling Stone magazine: “I'm really scared about what people are going to say. Some people will like it and some won't.

"If people hate it, then I'll just try something else", she added.

Lily even has a career in mind if things don’t work out with her new album, tentatively titled Stuck On The Naughty Step.

She said: "I’d really love to do A&R (Artists and Repertoire) at a record company. I love going to gigs."

Lily Rose Beatrice Allen (born 2 May 1985) is an English singer-songwriter and television presenter. Best-known for her songs "Smile" and "LDN", Allen is the daughter of actor/musician Keith Allen and film producer Alison Owen. Allen also hosts her own BBC Three talk show Lily Allen and Friends.

Her single "Smile" reached number one on the UK singles charts in July 2006. In December 2006, her debut album ''Alright'', Still was voted the third best album of the year by Mixmag.

In 2007, it was nominated for the award of Best British Album at the Brit Awards and for Best New Artist at the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards. The album was nominated for a 2008 Grammy Award in the category of "Best Alternative Music Album".

Wildlife officer saves bear from drowning

A wildlife officer put his own life on the line in Florida when he leapt into the sea to save a huge black bear from drowning. The startled 26 stone beast ran into the water at Alligator Point after being shot with a tranquilliser dart, reports Sky News.

Adam Warwick, realising the bear was in danger, stripped to his underwear, dived into the sea and put his arm round the animal's neck to keep its head above water.

The fearsome but drowsy creature allowed itself to be rescued and Warwick escaped with a few scratches.

The bear had wandered into a residential area looking for food before being shot with the tranquilliser by a wildlife marksman. Mr Warwick, 29, who works for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission, said: "I was pretty surprised at how big he was.

"I had no idea what I was getting myself into. It was a spur of the minute decision.

"I was swimming toward the bear, trying to prevent him from swimming into deeper water. He was losing function in his arms and legs and was obviously in distress."

Once he had dragged the bear ashore, the beast was loaded on to a truck by a JCB.

It was then taken to a forest near Lake City and released. It had apparently been left unharmed by its near-death experience.

Of all the love song Richard Marx's songs is the influence of many love stories for couples in love and song writers in the late 80s and the 90s and still is brilliant as being a continued persuasion on many lovers.

Marx made the top of the charts on radio in 1987, starting with his first single, ‘’Don't Mean Nothing’’. Six consecutive follow-up songs hit the Top 5, three of them, including Right Here Waiting, went to No. 1.

Richard Marx made it into the music business singing backup vocals for Lionel Richie and writing songs with Kenny Rogers and ‘Chicago’ for he kept to the simple middle-of-the-road approach of those acts once he became a recording artist in his own right.

Carefully, I chose this old song for all the married couple in my Video as a token to married life and all the trimming that comes with it and so apropos these days in the USA as things have changes - as couples rushed to county clerks' offices to obtain marriage licenses and exchange vows on the first full day that same-sex marriage became legal in the state of California.

Gays in California rush to marriage

June 18, 2008

SAN FRANCISCO—Serenaded by a gay men's chorus, showered with rose petals and toasted with champagne, hundreds of same-sex couples got married across California on Tuesday.

Couples rushed to county clerks' offices to obtain marriage licenses and exchange vows on the first full day that same-sex marriage became legal in the state.

Among them was actor George Takei, who played Sulu on the original "Star Trek." He and his partner of 21 years, Brad Altman, obtained one of the new gender-neutral marriage licenses, with the words "Party A" and "Party B" instead of "bride" and "groom," at the West Hollywood City Hall.

Open to all: Unlike Massachusetts, the only other state to legalize gay marriage, California has no residency requirement for a license.

The voices in the background at the beginning of the song are immediately doting to a lovely and soft choir of many angels - then the brilliant flow goes towards a ballade to cover this beautiful Beatles' song seen in the midst of the streets of Liverpool where it all started….

It's extremely heart-rending, as we may make jokes on the worst world leader this planet has ever seen, and the most dreaded life time in history since WWII and more than a hundred times I've considered to think about what the past five year's historical unconventional in the Middle East would have been if the Iraq invasion had not occurred... although this part of the world has been building up revenge on westerners for some time for as many decades since the attack in Munich during the Olympic games in 1972 - however a more diplomatic 'world leader' would just have been better and would have lessen the current situation and disaster by a hundred times.

Of course let us not forget that Saddam Hussein had nothing to do with September 11 whatsoever.

Bush distracted the US troops’ energy from the real murderers for a purpose 'WE' people of the world will only find out many decades later - I might not be on the planet anymore but I hope you will all find out about in your lifetime! He disgraced the world and America!!

Shame on us all, and every one of the rest of the world leaders for not stopping this!!!

Bush yearns for Texas in rare singing performance

Sun Mar 9, 6:31 AM ET

U.S. President George W. Bush donned a cowboy hat and sang an early goodbye to Washington on Saturday night with a performance that lampooned White House journalists and Vice President Dick Cheney among others.

Bush surprised cabinet secretaries, diplomatic officials and journalists at the annual Gridiron dinner by taking the stage and giving the first public singing performance of his eight-year presidency, which ends in January 2009.

To the tune of country song "Green Green Grass of Home", Bush sang of longing for his ranch in Crawford, Texas and his dog Barney.

"And there to meet me is my mama and my papa, down the lane I look and here comes Barney, heart of gold and breath like honey; it's good to touch the brown brown grass of home."

Bush, singing only slightly off key, then turned to some of the long-term members of his team including Cheney and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

"For there's Condi and Dick, my old compadre, talking to me about some oil rich Saudi, but soon I'll touch the brown brown grass of home."

"That old White house is behind me, I am once again carefree, don't have to worry 'bout a crisis in Pyongyang. Down the lane I look, Dick Cheney is strolling with documents he'd been withholding, it's good to touch the brown brown grass of home."

Bush told the audience, which erupted in applause and gave him a standing ovation, that they had witnessed "the first and final performance of George Bush and the Busharoos".

The Gridiron Club holds an annual dinner at which journalists put on songs and skits lampooning Democrats and Republicans alike.

A writer would want to express with words for others to read and understand:

All of the lettering is definitely fastidious to be read sooner or later no matter what you say.

Most of the written material ends up to how much you want to reveal about your personal avowal or how nicely words sound in a phrased epic with a thought.

Very often a writer would give more details to create an additional path to a harmonious and sensible involvement for the reader; hence an author would want to express an uncut stream of words to the effect of their perspective to an action in a narrative evolving into an explanation of something the writer would want to share with interest…

As I demonstrate here in long uncut phrases, intended for an example…

(Correct me if this sounds incomprehensible)

Here are some of the interests a writer would want to share that stands out for me…

1 - Personal diary…

2 - Fastidious tale with an anecdote to learn from…

3 - A flow of words for entertainment, art, poetry, song, etc…

4 - A statement to make a point to a biased views which might be political or just an observation…

There are more motives, which are yours?

Paralyzed man moves computer cursor through thought

Wed Jul 12, 2006 1:46 PM ET
By Patricia Reaney

LONDON (Reuters) - A Paralyzed man using a new brain sensor has been able to move a computer cursor, open e-mail and control a robotic device simply by thinking about doing it, a team of scientists said on Wednesday.

They believe the BrainGate sensor, which involves implanting electrodes in the brain, could offer new hope to people Paralyzed by injuries or illnesses.

"This is the first step in an ongoing clinical trial of a device that is encouraging for its potential to help people with paralysis," Dr Leigh Hochberg, of Massachusetts General Hospital, said in an interview.

The 25-year-old man who suffered paralysis of all four limbs three years earlier completed tasks such moving a cursor on a screen and controlling a robotic arm.

He is the first of four patients with spinal cord injuries, muscular dystrophy, stroke or motor neurone disease testing the brain-to-movement system developed by Cyberkinetics Neurotechnology Systems Inc in Massachusetts.

"This is the dawn of major neurotechnology where the ability to take signals out of the brain has taken a big step forward. We have the ability to put signals into the brain but getting signals out is a real challenge. I think this represents a landmark event," said Professor John Donoghue of Brown University in Rhode Island and the chief scientific officer of Cyberkinetics.

The scientists implanted a tiny silicon chip with 100 electrodes into an area of the brain responsible for movement. The activity of the cells was recorded and sent to a computer which translated the commands and enabled the patient to move and control the external device.

"This part of the brain, the motor cortex, which usually sends its signals down the spinal cord and out to the limbs to control movement, can still be used by this participant to control an external device, even after years had gone by since his spinal cord injury," added Hochberg, a co-author of the study published in the journal Nature.

Although it is not the first time brain activity has been used to control a cursor, Stephen Scott of Queen's University in Ontario, Canada said it advances the technology.

"This research suggests that implanted prosthetics are a viable approach for assisting severely impaired individuals to communicate and interact with the environment," he said in a commentary in the journal.

In a separate study, researchers from Stanford University Schools of Medicine and Engineering described a faster way to process signals from the brain to control a computer or prosthetic device.

"Our research is starting to show that, from a performance perspective, this type of prosthetic system is clinically viable," Stephen Ryu, an assistant professor of neurosurgery at Stanford, said in as statement.

The lovely daughter of a friend of mine invited me to her forum on Delphi-forums during the October 2001 terror crisis to discuss politics. She knows that I'm politically inclined as she is - we all wanted answers after 9/11 – so I went willingly.

Her family lost a kin friend in one of the twin towers. Her sister lost one of her business-partners on the plane in Philadelphia. At the time, seven years prior she lost one her sisters to Leukemia, prior to this she lost her brother to a car accident, and a father died right after from grief when she was still a teen.

I tried to support her in all of her grievances. I tried to make her laugh with silly odd-topics. Good hearted as she is she accepted me like one of her family members as we discussed through the internet. With all of these, she still has a sense of humour I read it in her poetry and responses in her forum and now here as she moved to these blogs. I’m always invited to her family events but sadly I couldn’t make it to a lot of them. I have a full time job and it’s not easy to leave.

Time has passed by and amazingly enough we're still around asking the same questions about the political issues and especially the dreaded terrors, nothing has been solved since 9/11.

Conversely groups of NeoCon fans attacked the forum to belittle her, and mock her with racist slurs so many times, she stopped posting! She writes beautifully with a lot of feelings. Some even say she ought to write romance novels because every subject she touches, receives a touch of her personal life that turns into love.

A couple of fundamentalist Christians also called her 'dirty Jew' - 'Islamist' - 'Communist' and 'whore' so many times it only brought back all the things I've read about the USA's racism they had in the fifties - all the disgusting stuff I read about in the books. She is a very beautiful and a very nice European living in Canada with a heart. She is the proud wife of an engineer, a mother of four, (two step-girls and two toddlers of her own.) She is a Yoga advocate, and a skier. Very far off to be any of those names they gave her.

Bear in mind what terrorism is. It is the systematic use of terror as a means of coercion and this is what the warlords have done. Keep in mind how deviously they used to tell us how bad the Soviets were? Gulags in Siberia etc? We got over 40 years of that kind of propaganda. Now they're doing it themselves. "Freedom and democracy" they call it. America advocates Human Rights to the world, at the same time as holding prisoners without trial in Quantanamo bay. What type of Human rights is this? Quite bewildering!

MP Tony Blair's elite and the Bush administration destroyed not only innocent human beings by constantly bombing them but also create divisions among nations to achieve their goal is rather wicked. I believe someone has to act soon to punish them for the crimes against humanity at the War crime tribunal in Hague… and for dividing nations into so much hatred all over the world. Do I see an end to it? Hardly!!!

Galloway: Blair's death would be justified

By DAVID STRINGER, Associated Press Writer
AP - Fri May 26, 9:39 AM ET

Maverick British politician George Galloway has claimed it would be "morally justified" for an assassin to target Prime Minister Tony Blair, but he said he was not advocating an attempt, according to a magazine interview published Friday.

Galloway was quoted as saying an attack on Blair that caused no other casualties would be a justifiable response to Britain's support for the 2003 U.S.-led invasion of Iraq.

abcnews.go.com/International

"It would be entirely logical and explicable — and morally equivalent to ordering the deaths of thousands of innocent people in Iraq as Blair did," the monthly GQ magazine quoted Galloway as saying.

However, if he knew anyone was planning such an attack, Galloway added, he would tell police.

Galloway, currently in Cuba, verified the accuracy of his comments in a statement posted on the Web site of his political party, Respect.

"I think it's best that we say nothing. We may say nothing, but we think plenty," Blair's official spokesman, who speaks only on condition of anonymity, said by telephone from Washington, where Blair met with President Bush.

Galloway was kicked out of Blair's Labour Party in October 2003 for urging British soldiers not to fight in Iraq.

He later founded his party and won a new seat in the House of Commons in 2005, representing an east London suburb with a large Muslim population. During his campaign, he denounced the invasion of Iraq and called for the withdrawal of coalition troops.

Galloway defended his comments in a statement on his Web site and said it would be possible for those in Iraq who had "seen their country invaded" to construct a moral justification for the killing of Blair

"But I've made my position clear. I would not support anyone seeking to assassinate the prime minister," he said.

Menzies Campbell, the leader of Britain's third-largest political party, the opposition Liberal Democrats, said Galloway's comments risked "providing encouragement" to a would-be assassin.

"No politician, ever, by act, word, or deed, either expressly or by implication, should give any support to the notion that violence might be justified," Campbell said in a statement.

Galloway spent three weeks last year starring on the reality TV show "Celebrity Big Brother" and was ridiculed for scenes in which he lapped up imaginary milk and purred like a cat.

His decision to participate in the program — away from his duties in Parliament and alongside a topless model, an androgynous pop singer and former NBA star Dennis Rodman — resulted in criticism from constituents and lawmakers.

In his magazine interview, Galloway claimed to been the best fighter at his school, and said he would like to go a few rounds with both Blair and Bush.

"I'd take them both at once," Galloway said.

"That's what really upsets me. They are the sort of men who are ready to fight to the last drop of other people's blood. They couldn't personally punch their way out of a paper bag. They send other mothers' sons to their death, and I find them both deeply repugnant," he said.

Last May, Galloway called a congressional subcommittee "the mother of all smoke screens," after he traveled to the United States to deny accusations he had profited from the U.N. oil-for-food program.

Madame Curie shared with her husband, Pierre Curie, the honors for discovering two radioactive elements, radium and polonium. The discovery of these elements laid the foundation for future discoveries in nuclear physics and chemistry.

Marie Sklodowska was born on November 7, 1867, in Warsaw, Poland. Her early years were strongly influenced by her parents, who were both educators. She later joined with Faculty of Sciences at the Sorbonne. This made Marie the first woman to teach at the university level in France.

Nobel Laureate Marie Curie Visits Canonsburg

The visit was part of a six-week tour of the United States that earlier included a reception at the White House where President Harding presented a gift of a gram of radium that had cost $100,000. The radium was produced by the Standard Chemical Company. For much of her visit to Western Pennsylvania, Mme. Curie was not in the best of health, which resulted in postponements and curtailments of scheduled activities. However, she seemed energized during her visits to the Standard Chemical plants in Pittsburgh and Canonsburg.

Dian Fossey

Murder in the Mist Solved?

Born 16 Jan 1932; died 26 Dec 1985.

American zoologist who for years made a daily study of the mountain forest gorillas of Rwanda, central Africa. In 1963, she met Louis and Mary Leakey, who encouraged her initial interest. With Jane Goodall's encouragement, she set up and directed (1967-80) the Karisoke Research Center, Rwanda. Living a solitary life for many years, she observed the gorillas’ habits and gradually gained their acceptance. She wrote Gorillas in the Mist (1983) to acquaint the public with the threats to the gorillas from poachers and loss of habitat. In 1985, Fossey's mutilated body, hacked by machete, was found near the centre. Poachers, whose devastating attacks on the gorillas she had tried to stop, were suspected for her murder, although unproved.«

Smashed by reprehensible Terrorists?

In 1970, the construction of the World Trade Center in New York City reached 1353 feet high (411 m), its highest point.
www.greatbuildings.com/buildings/World_Trade_Center.html

This was a complex of 7 buildings including twin 110-story towers, with 9 million sq.ft. of office space.

The towers' design by architect Minoru Yamasaki used a steel frame with glass curtain walls.

Observation decks at the top of the towers gave a view of 45 miles. The building had three vertical zones served by express elevators to skylobbies at the 41st and 74th floors and local elevators within the three zones. Once the highest skyscrapers in the world (until surpassed by the Sears Tower, Chicago), the twin towers were totally destroyed by fire 11 Sep 2001 by terrorists who crashed hijacked airliners into them.

2 Teens Arrested in Alleged Massacre Plot.

03-18-2004 -

Two teenagers were in custody for allegedly plotting to carry out a Columbine-like massacre at their former high school next Valentine's Day, authorities said.

The former Quartz Hill High students, whose names were not released, were arrested Thursday after searches of their homes turned up knives, ammunition, a gas mask and bomb-making instructions downloaded from the Internet, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

They were being held at the Sylmar Juvenile Detention Center for investigation of making terrorist threats, Brown said.

"I've been working with schools for eight years, and we have hoaxes all the time, but this is the first time that I thought, 'Oops, this one could really happen,'" sheriff's Sgt. Darrel Brown said Friday. "You could see they were preparing meticulously, taking things step by step."

The boys, ages 17 and 15, had been transferred from Quartz Hill to other schools for disciplinary reasons, authorities said.

Brown said an investigation began Wednesday when a student contacted the school's vice principal and said the former classmates were planning a "Columbine-style assault" on the campus. The student said she had learned about it second-hand.

The boys told investigators that they planned to kill Quartz Hill students who had made fun of them, using guns and homemade explosives, then commit suicide, Brown said.

On Friday, deputies at the sheriff's station in Lancaster displayed a page from the 15-year-old's notebook with the scrawled message: "When I'm God, everyone dies."

The notebook was accompanied by a three-ring binder with pictures of Columbine High School killers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh and murderer Charles Manson.

Deputies said they found a black trench coat at one boy's home, possibly to be used in imitation of the similarly-dressed Columbine killers, and the 15-year-old boy had carved the word "hate" into his forearm, authorities alleged.

Fire crews start to quell inferno.

Crews are aiming to smother the fire with a foam blanket.

Crews fighting the ferocious blaze still raging at a Hertfordshire oil depot have put out fires in 10 of some 20 fuel tanks that were affected.

Meanwhile, a huge plume of smoke continues to billow from the site, spreading out across southern England.

Explosions and fire at the Buncefield depot, near Hemel Hempstead, early on Sunday injured 42 people.

Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott has told the Commons the government would provide support and assistance.

Is it really body image or menopause?

Body image, not menopause, causes lack of desire

Women who lose their sexual desire as they age may not be the victims of hormonal changes but may be reacting to their own body image, U.S. researchers reported on Wednesday.

The more a woman perceived herself as less attractive, the more likely she was to report a decline in sexual desire or activity over the past 10 years, the team at Penn State University found.

"Our results suggest that 'treatment,' via medication, of menopausal effects for this purpose seems unwarranted in light of the findings that menopausal status did not have a significant impact on the sexual responding of the women in this study," said Dr. Patricia Barthalow Koch, an associate professor of biobehavioral health and women's studies who led the study.

Koch's team studied 307 mostly white, heterosexual women aged 35 to 55.

About 21 percent said they were pre-menopausal, 63.5 percent said they were undergoing some menopausal changes and 15.5 percent were past menopause.

Nearly 21 percent of the women could not think of even one attractive feature and reported an overall sense of dissatisfaction with their bodies, Koch's team reported in The Journal of Sex Research. The women especially disliked their stomachs or abdomens, hips, thighs and legs.

Two-thirds of the women said they either desired sex less than 10 years before or that they had sex less often.

But the women reported that when they did have sex, there was a high level of enjoyment, with 72 percent saying they were physically and emotionally satisfied in their sexual relationships.

"There has been a dearth of research examining the relationship between body image and women's sexual response. These new results support a link between body image and sexual responding that needs further study," Koch said.

White House denies Bush God claims.

James Sturcke
Friday October 7, 2005

A senior White House official has denied that the US president, George Bush, said God ordered him to invade Afghanistan and Iraq.

A spokesman for Mr Bush, Scott McClellan, said the claims, to be broadcast in a TV documentary later this month, were "absurd".

In the BBC film, a former Palestinian foreign minister, Nabil Shaath, says that Mr Bush told a Palestinian delegation in 2003 that God spoke to him and said: "George, go and fight these terrorists in Afghanistan" and also "George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq".

During a White House press briefing, Mr McClellan said: "No, that's absurd. He's never made such comments."

Mr McClellan admitted he was not at the Israeli-Palestinian summit at the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh in June 2003 when Mr Bush supposedly revealed the extent of his religious fervour.

However, he said he had checked into the claims and "I stand by what I just said".

Asked if Mr Bush had ever mentioned that God had ordered him into Afghanistan and Iraq, Mr McClellan said: "No, and I've been in many meetings with him and never heard such a thing."

The claims are due to be broadcast in a three-part BBC documentary which analyses attempts to bring peace to the Middle East.

Mr Shaath, the Palestinian foreign minister in 2003, claims Mr Bush told him and other delegates that he was spoken to by God over his plans for war.

He told the film-makers: "President Bush said to all of us: 'I'm driven with a mission from God. God would tell me, George, go and fight those terrorists in Afghanistan. And I did, and then God would tell me, George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq... And I did.

"'And now, again, I feel God's words coming to me, Go get the Palestinians their state and get the Israelis their security, and get peace in the Middle East. And by God I'm gonna do it.'"

The Palestinian leader, Mahmoud Abbas, who attended the June 2003 meeting as well, also appears on the documentary series to recount how Mr Bush told him: "I have a moral and religious obligation. So I will get you a Palestinian state."

Mr Bush, who became a born-again Christian at 40, is one of the most overtly religious leaders to occupy the White House, a fact that brings him much support in middle America.

"History is littered with examples of people doing the most bizarre and sometimes wicked things on this basis," said Andrew Blackstock, director of the British-based Christian Socialist Movement. "If Bush really wants to obey God during his time as president he should start with what is blindingly obvious from the Bible rather than perceived supernatural messages.

"That would lead him to the rather less glamorous business of prioritising the needs of the poor, the downtrodden and the marginalised in his own country and abroad.

"When we see more policies reflecting that, it might be easier to believe he has God on his side. And more likely that God might speak to him."

The TV series, which starts on Monday, charts recent attempts to bring peace to the Middle East, from the former US president Bill Clinton's peace talks in 1999-2000, to Israel's withdrawal from the Gaza Strip this year. It seeks to uncover what happened behind closed doors by speaking to presidents and prime ministers, along with their generals and ministers, the BBC said.

Bush, God, and the Hurricanes

New York Sun Editorial
September 23, 2005

While leading the logistical work of disaster preparedness and recovery connected with Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, President Bush has been doing some important yet little-noticed theological work as well, helping a nation of believers in a benevolent God grapple with the age-old "problem of evil."

Mr. Bush has eschewed any suggestion that Katrina is a punishment by God for, as several of our enemies have suggested, fighting Muslims in Iraq and Afghanistan. Neither has Mr. Bush paid notice to the suggestion of several of our own clergymen who have suggested the storm is divine retribution for tolerating a "decadent" lifestyle at home.

Bush's 'hotline to God'

Last Modified: 7 Oct 2005

A Palestinian negotiator claims President George Bush said that he was told by God to invade Iraq and Afghanistan.

The claim comes from the first meeting between the US leader, the Palestinian Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas (also known as Abu Mazen), and his then foreign minister in June 2003.

The ministers say that Bush also revealed to them that he had been told by God to create a Palestinian state.

Former Palestinian foreign minister Nabil Shaath, now the information minister, describes the meeting with the US leader, in a documentary.

He says: "President Bush said to all of us: 'I'm driven with a mission from God.

`God would tell me, `George, go and fight those terrorists in Afghanistan'.'

"And I did, and then God would tell me, `George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq...' And I did.

"`And now, again, I feel God's words coming to me, `Go get the Palestinians their state and get the Israelis their security, and get peace in the Middle East.' And by God I'm gonna do it."

Abbas, who was also at the meeting in the Egyptian resort of Sharm al-Sheikh, recounts how the President told him: "I have a moral and religious obligation.

"So I will get you a Palestinian state."

The claims are made on the BBC2 programme, Elusive Peace: Israel and the Arabs.

The bishops of Bath and Wells, Oxford, Coventry, and Worcester, said in their report on countering terrorism: "There is no uniquely righteous nation. No country should see itself as the redeemer nation, singled out by God as part of his providential plan."
