"In the Bible, institutional power is referred to as 'the beast', which sets itself up to control people and their morals. Our government has been playing the role of God in saying that people are free to act as they want," he said, adding that the introduction of recent pro-gay laws highlighted its determination to undermine marriage. The sexual orientation regulations [which give greater rights to gays] are part of a general scene of permissiveness. We are in a situation where we are liable for God's judgment, which is intended to call us to repentance." - - The Rt Rev Graham Dow, Bishop of Carlisle

A sexy Brazilian-style bikini wax almost cost a 20-year-old Melbourne woman her life.
The woman suffered a near-fatal infection after she was left bleeding by the hot-wax hair removal procedure, performed by a trainee waxer.
Less than a fortnight later, possibly because of a lowered immune system arising from diabetes, she came down with extreme pain and a fever. She had also broken out in a rash stretching from her groin to her chest, arms and neck.
She was not correctly diagnosed until doctors from the Austin Hospital examined her under a general anaesthetic. The infection was treated with antibiotics.
She then presented again with a similar condition a few months later, this time after shaving rather than waxing.

Funding for tertiary courses in prostitution could be considered under changes aimed at boosting quality and relevance in the sector, New Zealand education officials say.

A south Australian farmer has warned of the perils of falling in love over the internet, after an online bride scam almost cost him his life.
Des Gregor, 56, has arrived back in Adelaide after being held hostage in the African nation of Mali for 12 days.
He had gone there expecting to marry a woman he had met over the internet, and pick up a US$86,000 (£43,000) dowry.
But instead he was held hostage, with his kidnappers demanding US$86,000 from him in ransom.
...
His relatives sounded the alarm when they started receiving strange emails asking for money.
At that point the Australian authorities decided to lay a trap of their own.
They managed to persuade the kidnappers that Mr Gregor could pick up the ransom money at the Canadian embassy.
It was there that he was rescued by the Australian federal police after being held for 12 days.
West African internet scams are not uncommon and many of his fellow Australians have wondered why the farmer was so easily duped.
His relatives say he was blinded by internet love.

The camel, given to the woman on her 60th birthday, was killed Saturday at her family sheep and cattle ranch near Mitchell, about 350 miles west of the Queensland state capital of Brisbane, state police Detective Senior Constable Craig Gregory said.

Four Chinese men have gone on trial for trying to sell uranium that could be used to make nuclear weapons. The state-controlled China Daily newspaper reports the men were arrested in January after a potential buyer in Hong Kong reported them to the authorities. Despite taking the four men into custody, police have been unable to locate the eight kilograms of uranium, warning that it poses a health risk to people who may come in contact with it.

In addition to stealing their crops, the monkeys also make sexually explicit gestures at the women, they claim.

Defence lawyers for Kylie Louise Wilson, 28, said the mother of two "lost it" when her friend of six years, Daniel Peter Blair, went on a masturbation marathon on April 6 last year.
Brisbane's District Court this morning heard Mr Blair had showed up at Wilson's Birkdale unit, in Redland Shire, where he took amphetamines before having a shower.

Whilst in the bathroom, Mr Blair, 32, began pleasuring himself, before moving to Wilson's bedroom, where he rolled around naked on her bed and continued his lewd conduct.
He returned to the bathroom for more and was busted by Wilson, who was attempting to bath her three-and-a-half year-old daughter.

The court heard Mr Blair refused her repeated requests to stop, prompting her to fetch a knife from the kitchen which she used to stab him twice in the left shoulder.
Crown prosecutors said Mr Blair paused only to put on his shorts and flee outside to wait for police to arrive, but was again overcome by the urge.
"Despite his injury, it seems (Mr Blair) continued to masturbate while in the garage," the prosecutor said.
