Angeles City (Philippines) (AFP) - A wealthy British banker charged over grisly twin murders in Hong Kong was a regular in a shabby red-light district of the Philippines where he liked to flash his cash and was treated like a king. The women in skimpy outfits working the short stretch of go-go and hostess bars of Angeles City remember Rurik Jutting fondly. At the cramped Del Rio bar, workers said he would swig bottles of a local low-calorie beer while handing out cash, buying everyone rounds of drinks and keeping an eye on one of the dancers, who would become his girlfriend. Women would rush to the door when they saw Jutting arrive and lead him to his favourite spot, a mouldy ...

Potty mouth princesses for feminism by Michael McGregor Sit back, take a deep breath, and strap in. This is an epic example of “shock value protest.” The “anti-hate” group “FCK8" enlisted a bunch of little girls donned in princess gear to spew vulgarities and say “fuck” like they were in a Quentin Tarantino-film… if Quentin Tarantino was a woman and made a film attacking the dreaded patriarchy. Because these princesses aren’t just swearing to be adorable. They’re swearing for feminism. Here’s some highlights: “What the fuck? I’m not some pretty fucking helpless princess in distress.” “Women are paid 25% ...

Medscape... This blog has discussed bias and how it has the potential to affect patient care, learning, or a even a fair work environment. Regardless of whether it is someone else’s bias (patients who don’t like students) or our own (gender assumptions), being aware of such tendencies is important. A recent article about face-based social attributions serves as a good reminder to challenge our own judgements. Historically, research has shown that facial appearance has been linked to social outcomes, ranging from becoming elected to political office to being convicted of a crime. In fact, studies have found that applicants whose faces looked more competent had a higher likelihood ...

Following Google executive Alan Eustace's supersonic skydive, physicist Dr Simon Foster examines the possibility that such feats might one day become commonplace Google executive Alan Eustace took the world by surprise when he broke Felix Baumgartner's record by leaping over 41 kilometres from the edge of space. Unlike Baumgartner's 2012 jump, Eustace's supersonic skydive took place out of the media spotlight, with little fanfare. According to Dr Simon Foster, a physicist from Imperial College London, the key difference between the two jumps was that Baumgartner used a capsule to make his ascent, whereas Eustace relied on a high-altitude, helium-filled balloon "I ...

Local/po Swedish police say they will pay a man 16,000 kronor ($2,200) in damages after much of the alcohol they confiscated from him was stolen, while many of the bottles they returned were filled with water.

But when he was reunited with the consignment, the owner of the alcohol quickly realized that a lot of it was missing, while some of the wine, beer and cider had passed its best-before date.
