On Friday, the French magazine Closer released topless pictures of Kate Middleton and both the royal family and 10 Downing Street (the office of the prime minister) are accusing the media of "having crossed a red line." Moreover, they have pointed out, the incident is doubly painful because of the late Princess Diana's tortured relationship with the press, which ended in her death in a high-speed car crash while being chased by photographers. "The incident is reminiscent of the worst excesses of the press and paparazzi during the life of Diana, Princess of Wales," reads the official statement out of St. James Palace, "and all the more upsetting to The Duke and Duchess for being so." The statement also called the publication of the photos "grotesque" and "unjustifiable."

Locked in a cellar where she was allegedly raped and beaten for nearly a decade, a young deaf and mute Pakistani woman told a UK court on Monday how she was trafficked into Britain and forced to work as a virtual slave.

The woman, whose age is not known, said she was around 10 when she was brought to the northern city of Manchester as a domestic servant in 2000. She cannot be identified for legal reasons.

A Pakistani couple — 83-year-old Ilyas Ashar and his wife, 66-year-old Tallat Ashar — are charged with false imprisonment, human trafficking, sexual offenses, violence and benefit fraud. Both have pleaded not guilty to the charges.

Speaking through an interpreter and using sign language, the woman — thought to be 19 or in her 20s — described how she was allegedly hit with a rolling pin while forced to work for no money, made to sleep on a concrete floor in a bolted cellar and sexually abused.



When prosecutors showed her a picture of Ilyas Ashar, she said: “He’s the one who has sex with me.”
She said Ashar’s wife would repeatedly strike her with her ring, sometimes when she made too much noise by setting dishes on the table.

“I would be down in the cellar, sitting alone and very upset,” she said. “I would sit there for a long, long time, really upset and crying. I could not get out.”

The girl was rescued after a joint police raid in 2009. It wasn’t immediately clear if other government agencies were investigating the couple or why. The couple are also accused of allegedly claiming benefits in her name but withholding any proceeds.

It isn’t immediately clear how the couple were able to bring the girl to Britain.

The Border Agency, which falls under control of the Home Office, had no immediate comment as to how the girl would have been allowed into the country as a domestic servant or whether the matter was being investigated, but a spokeswoman said she would look into the matter.

The trial continues in Minshull Street Crown Court in Manchester.

Michael J. Fox is planning a return to series TV, more than a decade after he left to concentrate on fighting Parkinson's disease.

The actor, who first gained fame in the 1980s sitcom "Family Ties" and later headlined "Spin City," will star in a comedy that's in development at Sony Pictures Television for 2013, according to people with knowledge of the project.

The people, who lacked authority to publicly discuss the matter, spoke Wednesday on condition of anonymity. The project has drawn strong interest from the major networks, they said.

The actor's publicist did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Sony declined comment.


Fox, 51, who starred in the hit "Back to the Future" movie franchise, is working with Will Gluck, director of the film "Easy A," and writer Sam Laybourne, whose credits include "Cougar Town" and "Arrested Development," the people said.

The actor, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 1991, left "Spin City" in 2000 and said he intended to focus on helping find a cure for the disease. He started a foundation, which bears his name, to fund research toward that goal.

Although he reduced his workload because of Parkinson's, Fox has made guest appearances on TV series including "Rescue Me," ''Curb Your Enthusiasm" and "The Good Wife."

In May, Fox told ABC News that a new drug regimen has helped him control the tics that are a result of the disease and allowed him to take on more acting roles.

The new Sony project was first reported by the entertainment website Vulture.

Foodies paid tribute Wednesday to celebrity chef Julia Child, marking the 100th anniversary of the birth of the woman who introduced Americans to exotic French delicacies like boeuf bourguignon.

Across the United States, 100 restaurants celebrated with Child-inspired menus during the Julia Child Restaurant Week, which runs August 7-15.

"Happy 100th birthday to one (of) my idols, the one and only #JuliaChild!" cooking show host Paula Deen tweeted.

A mock birthday party for Child, who died just short of her 92nd birthday in 2004, was held at the National Museum of American History, where her renowned Cambridge, Massachusetts kitchen is on display.

Cheryl Fuentes, visiting the exhibit from nearby Alexandria, Virginia, said she hoped "to get the cooking recipes" adored by much of the American public before returning home.

Child used the kitchen as the set of three television shows and for testing many of the recipes featured in her cookbooks, such as the now indispensable Mastering the Art of French Cooking, first published in 1961.

She is often credited with ushering in the fresh food movement in the United States and introducing French cuisine and cooking techniques to a mainstream audience through her books and television programs.

"You don't have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces — just good food from fresh ingredients," Child told her apprentices.

Julie Powell, whose autobiography Julie and Julia was turned into an Oscar-nominated movie featuring Meryl Streep, remembered how Child "taught me to cook — and live."

Child "helped create a culture that takes eating seriously, that sees food as not just fuel but as craft and, sometimes, art," Powell wrote in the Los Angeles Times.

But Child also served as a spy during World War II with the Office of Strategic Services, the precursor to the Central Intelligence agency (CIA), where she worked as a typist and researcher and was even sent to Sri Lanka and China.

Her life as an expatriate helped form Child's discriminating taste.

American "food in China was terrible; we thought it was cooked by grease monkeys," she wrote.

"The Chinese food was wonderful and we ate out as often as we could. That is when I became interested in food... I just loved Chinese food."

During the war, the California native met her husband Paul, a foodie who had lived in Paris.

After the war, Paul's post with the State Department brought the couple back to France, where the soon-to-be-famous chef took up courses at the Cordon Bleu culinary school.

She later founded L'Ecole des Trois Gourmandes (The School of the Three Happy Eaters) in the 1950s in Paris with French chefs Simone Beck and Louisette Bertholle.

The three women taught American students how to cook French food. Though the school was disbanded when Childs moved to Marseille in 1953, its spirit lived on when Child pinned the school's logo to her blouse years later before each televised cooking program.

At the National Museum of American History, hundreds of tools, appliances and furnishings were arranged just as she left them when she donated the kitchen to the museum in 2001.

The self-proclaimed "knife freak" kept her large collection within easy reach on magnetic strips between the kitchen windows and above the sink.

The piece de resistance was Child's Garland six-burner, commercial gas oven range, manufactured in the 1950s.

The stove had already been used in a restaurant when the Childs purchased it for $429 in Washington in 1956, and the cook long praised her "big Garland."

Verizon Wireless' new family share plan has gotten lots of knickers in knots. But is the new plan really as bad as some people fear it is for consumers?


Last week, Verizon's new family share plans went into effect for the carrier's new customers. The plans give subscribers unlimited voice and text messaging and allow people to share buckets of data between different people on the same share plan and among multiple devices on the same plan. But the plans have also caused a lot of confusion -- and outraged many existing Verizon customers.
In this edition of Ask Maggie, I offer my opinion about whether Verizon's new plans are really good for consumers or not. I also explain to another reader why Virgin Mobile and Boost Mobile have different coverage maps than Sprint Nextel, which owns and operates these prepaid services.


Is Verizon's new family share plan really unfair?

Web customers checking their Twitter for or Facebook or myspace accounts Weekend might want to add one more quick click to examine their pc for germs.

Thousands of individuals around the nation whose pc systems were contaminated with harmful application more than a season ago faced the possibility of not being able to get on the internet after late night EDT.

At 12:01 a.m. EDT, the Govt Institution of Research planned to turn down the Online hosts set up as a short-term protection net to keep contaminated pc systems on the internet for the past eight months. The order from the court the agency obtained to keep the hosts running terminated, and it wasn't restored.

The issue began when international online hackers ran an internet advertising scams to take management of more than 570,000 contaminated pc systems all over the globe. When the FBI went in to take down the online hackers late last season, agents noticed that if they turned off the harmful hosts being used to management the pc systems, all the affected individuals would reduce their Websites.

In a highly uncommon move, the FBI set up the protection net. The bureau brought in a personal organization to install two clean Online hosts to take over for the harmful hosts so that individuals wouldn't instantly reduce their Online connection.

The FBI organized for a personal organization to run a web page as a position where individuals could go to see if their pc was contaminated and discover links to other pc security business sites where they might discover repairs for the issue.

From the beginning, most affected individuals didn't know their pc systems were contaminated, although the harmful application probably has stunted their web surfing and incapable their anti-virus application, making their devices more susceptible to other issues.

Many individuals don't have detailed knowledge about the complex devices they use every day to send email, shop and look for information. The cyberworld of germs, germs, bank scams and Online frauds is often far away and complicated, and caution messages may go hidden or unheeded.

Also, some individuals basically don't trust the federal government, and believe that federal government bodies are only trying to spy on them or take over the Online. Weblogs and other Online boards are full of articles caution of the federal government using the germs as a scheme to violation American citizens' pc systems. That's a charge the FBI and other cybersecurity experts familiar with the germs quickly denounce as absurd.

Still, the On the internet is bombarded with conspiracy theory theories:

"I think the FBI just wants everyone to go to that web page to examine our pc systems so they can examine our pc systems as well. Just a way to grab data for their own research," one pc user said in a publishing on the Online.

Another observed: "Yet another scheme to get everyone flipped out ... remember Y2K."

There also is an actual feeling that this will be much ado about nothing, such as the approach of 2000. The conversion to that season presented details and concerns that some pc systems would leave the workplace because they weren't set up for the date change. In the end there were very few issues.

Considering there are millions of Web customers across the nation, several thousand isn't a big deal—unless you are one of them.

Rep. Jim Langevin (D., R.I.), co-founder of Congress'S cybersecurity caucus, said individuals have a liability to practice feeling and make sure their pc systems aren't contaminated or being hi-jacked by thieves.

"These types of issues are only going to increase as our society is based more and more on the Online, so it is a memory that everyone can do their part," he said.

FBI government bodies have been monitoring the number pc systems they believe still may be contaminated by the germs. As of Wed, there were about 45,600 in the U.S.—nearly 20,000 less than a week ago. World-wide, the total is approximately 250,000 contaminated. The numbers have dropped continuously, and recent initiatives by Isps may limit the issues on Thursday.

Tom Grasso, an FBI supervisory special agent, said many Small businesses plan to try to help their customers. Some may put specialized solutions in position that will correct the server issue. It they do, the Online will work, but the germs will remain on victims' pc systems and could present future issues. Other Small businesses are basically prepared for the calls to their help collections.

By Thursday, if you can't read this on the internet, those customer assistance collections will be your only solution.

Ramadan in 2012 will start on Friday, the 20th of July and will continue for 30 days until Saturday, the 18th of August.

Based on sight ability in North America, in 2012 Ramadan will start in North America a day later - on Saturday, the 21st of July.

Note that in the Muslim calendar, a holiday begins on the sunset of the previous day, so observing Muslims will celebrate Ramadan on the sunset of Thursday, the 19th of July.

Although Ramadan is always on the same day of the Islamic calendar, the date on the Gregorian calendar varies from year to year, since the Gregorian calendar is a solar calendar and the Islamic calendar is a lunar calendar. This difference means Ramadan moves in the Gregorian calendar approximately 11 days every year. The date of Ramadan may also vary from country to country depending on whether the moon has been sighted or not.

The dates provided here are based on the dates adopted by the Fiqh Council of North America for the celebration of Ramadan. Note that these dates are based on astronomical calculations to affirm each date, and not on the actual sighting of the moon with the naked eyes. This approach is accepted by many, but is still being hotly debated.
