Topless sunbather accused of sensuously rubbing in sun cream


August 12, 2010

The complaint has triggered a debate in Italy about topless bathing
 
A TOPLESS sunbather is being investigated by police after being accused of sensuously rubbing sun cream on herself on a public beach.

Police were called to a beach at Anzio south of Rome by a furious mother who said the way the “attractive” sunbather was rubbing lotion on her body had “troubled her sons aged 14 and 12.”

The mother said she had asked the 26-year-old woman, identified only as Luisa under Italian privacy laws, to cover herself up. But the woman, still topless, refused and an argument broke out and police were called.

Emotional Kevin Rudd in tears on his final speech as Prime Minister
 
Kevin Michael Rudd born on the 21st of September 1957 in Nambour, Queensland, member of Australian Labour Party, from Queensland became the 26th Prime Minister of Australia in December 2007 officially after wining the federal election in November 2007... Deposing Kevin Rudd as the Prime Minister of Australia was a close and brutal betrayal from his so called long loyal deputy Julia Gillard and his own party colleagues.

Oil spill approaches Louisiana coast


April 20,2010

Firefighting boats spray seawater onto the burning Deepwater Horizon
 
Late on the night of April 20th, 50 miles from the shore of Louisiana, a fire broke out aboard the Transocean Deepwater Horizon oil rig under lease by BP, with 126 individuals on board. After a massive explosion, all but 11 of the crew managed to escape as the rig was consumed by fire, later collapsing and sinking into the Gulf. Safeguards set in place to automatically cap the oil well in case of catastrophe did not work as expected, and now an estimated 5,000 barrels (over 200,000 gallons) of crude oil is pouring into the Gulf of Mexico every day - and could possibly continue to do so for months as complicated efforts are made to stop the leak.
