Gunmen from the international jewelry thief network known as the Pink Panthers launched an assault last Thursday on a prison in western Switzerland that lasted just long enough for one imprisoned member and another inmate to escape.

Under Australian Commonwealth, state and territory laws, police and security agencies currently have access to data about which Internet sites you have been looking at, who you are calling and who is calling you, where you are located when using your phone or accessing your email account. This information can be gathered without the need for agencies such as ASIO, the Federal Police or state and territory police getting a search warrant from a judicial officer. All that is required is for a senior officer of those organisations to give permission. Yeah guess what guys.... Just sit back and wave. https://www.wikileaksparty.org.au/blog/the-nsa-spying-revelations-a…

Ivan Tolvich, 28, had to be rescued by emergency crews after passing out halfway up a 70ft high bridge in Belgrade, Serbia. The partygoer clearly didn’t fancy the walk home after a wild night out and so decided to take a nap on a 4ft wide steel girder instead. A splitting headache was luckily all the sleepy party animal had to worry about after a shocked pedestrian called the emergency services. One rescuer said it was a ‘very delicate operation’. ... http://metro.co.uk/2013/06/04/drunk-reveller-falls-asleep-halfway-up-70ft-bridge-in-serbia-3828103/
