An Afghan mob infuriated by a Florida pastor’s burning of a Quran last month stormed United Nations offices and killed up to 20 foreign staff members, beheading two of them. After noon prayers, hundreds of demonstrators poured out of mosques and headed to the U.N. headquarters in the northern Afghanistan city of Mazar-i-Sharif. After disarming the guards, they stormed the compound. A police spokesman said 27 people have been arrested so far in connection with the attack. Tolo TV news in Kabul reported that the director of the U.N. mission in the city was among those killed, but that hasn’t been confirmed. The crowd was angry over Florida pastor Terry Jones’ burning of a Quran on March 20. Jones had garnered international attention for threatening to burn a Quran last September 11, then promised not to but went ahead and burned a copy last month.

In a new development, the opposition today offered a conditional ceasefire.

Scaling Skyscrapers

Videostream – French Spiderman climbing Dubai Tower

French climber Alain Robert—known as “Spiderman”—begins climbing the world’s tallest tower, Dubai’s 2,717 foot Burj Khalifa. Let’s take a closer look.

French “Spiderman” climber Alain Robert began scaling Burj Khalifa on Monday (March 28)—his 128th known ascent to date.

As the sun began to set in the skyscraper metropolis—Dubai—Robert, sporting a pair of brightly colored orange trousers, started his delayed climb.

While obliged to compromise his “do or die” approach by using ropes and a harness, the daredevil started to pull his way up the side of the world’s highest tower, which stands at a staggering 828 metres tall.

Although the Frenchman has climbed the likes of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, Malaysia’s Petronas Towers and China’s tallest building, Robert says the gleaming Burj Khalifa was his greatest challenge yet.

Poland’s Martyrs and Victims of Communism remembered

It was on campuses like this one that NZS activists faced arrests, beatings and jail time decades ago for protesting against the communist regime.

Mr Gatnar, now a senior executive at the National Bank, also faced arrest as a student member of the NZS.

[Eugeniusz Gatnar, Board Member, National Bank of Poland]:
“We fought for freedom of speech, freedom of choice and we fought for freedom of assembly, so that we could work in a free Poland.”

According to its first-ever president, the Independent Student’s Association fought side-by-side with the Solidarity movement.

[Jaroslaw Guzy, Former President, NZS]:
“The Association was a special part of the Solidarity movement because it was made up of young people, and what particularly connected us with young workers was that we rejected communism completely. We focused on the here and now and believed that communism had to fall and it had to fall in our time. That was our aim and in this respect there was no compromise.”

The NZS was legalised in 1989, when communism finally collapsed.

And so bolstered by a victory in its biggest fight, today’s NZS continues to campaign for student’s rights in Poland.

Yemen protesters reject Saleh’s offer

Yemen’s president has made a new offer to end the country’s political crisis after talks with opposition parties stalled on Saturday.

The proposal suggests that Ali Abdullah Saleh stay in his position, but hand over some of his power to a caretaker government. But it’s not enough for tens of thousands of protesters in Sanaa.

Hydrogen May Provide Carbon-free Alternative to Gas

NTDTV | Mar 31, 2011 | 40 views

By 2015 cars and automobles could run by Hydrogen

A new, safe way of storing hydrogen could make it a carbon-free alternative to petrol. The method involves capturing the gas in tiny plastic beads, allowing it to be moved by tanker and pumped into a fuel tank. Let’s take a closer look.

A new technology that allows hydrogen to be stored in a cheap and practical way could make its widespread use as a carbon-free alternative to petrol a reality, according to its developers.

The technology is based on a new way of producing nano-fibers from hydrides, materials that soak up hydrogen like a sponge, and then encapsulating them in tiny plastic beads so small they behave like a liquid.

The process is being developed by Cella Energy, a spin-off from the UK’s Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, who say the technique allows hydrogen to be released at a much faster rate and at lower temperatures than before.

It has three times more energy than petrol per unit of weight and could power cars, planes and other vehicles that currently use hydrocarbons and is attracting interest from large established companies in the energy and transportation sectors
