19 year muslim girl stoned to death after part in beauty contest

Katya Koren, 19, lived in the Crimea region of the Ukraine. Her battered body was found buried in woodland

A teenage Muslim girl was stoned to death under 'Sharia law' after taking part in a beauty contest in Ukraine.

Katya Koren, 19, was found dead in a village in the Crimea region near her home.

Friends said she liked wearing fashionable clothes and had come seventh in a beauty contest. Her battered body was buried in a forest and was found a week after she disappeared.

Police have opened a murder probe and are investigating claims that three Muslim youths killed her claiming her death was justified under Islam.

One of the three - named as 16-year-old Bihal Gaziev - is under arrest and told police she had 'violated the laws of Sharia'.

Gaziev said he had no regrets about her death because she had violated the laws of Islam.

Heartbreaking/Heart Touching Picture by photojournalists



In all my previous photography posts, I’ve always tried to bring creative and beautiful compilations for you guys. However, today I have collected some “not-so-pleasing” shots but definitely food for thought.

You would have surely heard of the term “Photojournalism”….a form of news reporting where images are used to tell the entire news story. This type of journalism has rapidly gained prominence since violence and aggression has risen all over the world. Terror attacks, suicide bombings, war in Afghanistan and Iraq, protests and revolt in Egypt….these all are the grueling moments that are happening around us. Therefore, to keep the general public aware, journalists capture these grim realities of life in their cameras and release them over internet.

Lately, I came across some of the most heartbreaking and disturbing pictures of photojournalism and thought of sharing them with my readers. I think it’s high time we all realise that… “Peace can never be achieved through war”. Peace is not about fighting for vengeance. It is a process of removing anger and hatred amongst ourselves. Always remember:

“The more we sweat in peace the less we bleed in war. “
Let’s have a look at these heart-rending pictures which clearly prove that we are not “human beings” anymore.

Man feared dead after falling from cruise ship in the English Channel

Man feared dead after falling from cruise ship in the English ChannelA man was missing presumed dead today after falling overboard a cruise ship into the English Channel, officials said.

Emergency workers called off a search and rescue mission this morning after unsuccessfully hunting for the man throughout the night, according to a French coastguard source.

The man was travelling onboard the Celebrity Eclipse cruiser and plummeted into the Channel at around 10.15pm last night, eight miles north of Cherbourg.

The liner, owned by travel company Celebrity Cruises, is believed to have been travelling between Cherbourg and Southampton.

It is not know if the man was a passenger or member of staff and his nationality is still to be confirmed.

The coastguard source said: 'Unfortunately there was a man in the sea. We searched for him extensively but we could not find him.

'We deployed our resources to find him but it was to no avail and we can now presume that he is dead.

'The water was very cold and there is no hope for him.'

Solent Coastguard Maritime Rescue confirmed it had received information that a person onboard the cruiser had fallen overboard but did not know if he was British.

Celebrity Cruises offer trips around Europe and the Mediterranean, with cruises ranging from eight to 14 nights in length.

The Eclipse cruiser, a Solstice class vessel, joined the fleet last year, according to the company's website.

Number of failing teachers doubles in just a year

Number of failing teachers doubles in just a yearThe number of teachers classed as incompetent has doubled in just one year, while the number labelled outstanding has halved.

Millions of children are being failed by teachers who do not plan lessons, are unable to control a class and have a poor grasp of their subject.

The Ofsted figures, which may reflect a change in assessment methods, disclose that 17,600 teachers were described as ‘inadequate’ last year. This compares with 8,800, or two per cent, in the previous year.

Meanwhile 35,200 teachers, out of a total of 440,000, were ranked ‘outstanding’ in 2010, compared with 70,400 in 2009.

The proportion of unimpressive teachers labelled merely ‘satisfactory’ has also ballooned from 123,200 in 2009 to 162,800 in 2010.

A spokesman for Ofsted suggested that the rise in the number of poor teachers could be explained by a change in methods of inspection which has highlighted cases which would previously have been undisclosed.

He said: ‘Since 2009 we have placed a greater emphasis on classroom teaching, increasing the amount of time inspectors spend observing lessons.’

The apparent slump in standards in the state sector comes as experts warn of a coming crisis in teacher numbers, with 40 per cent expected to retire within the next five years.

New Viagra condom for longer, better and safer sex

New Viagra condom for longer, better and safer sexWanna sex up your love life? Then visit Venusgarden Guesthouse in Sweden that offers services including an orgasm coach. he guesthouse near Skurup, in south Sweden, is a 'paradise of love' for some of the guests.

For the landlady of a country B and B, Ylva Franzen has an interesting and unusual sideline.

She is a professional orgasm coach, although she prefers the job title "erotic pedagogue".

The 67-year-old Swedish former teacher runs the country's first "love hotel" with her husband, Ake.

Some B and Bs offer coffee and tea-making facilities in their bedrooms. Venusgarden offers a range of love-making facilities.

It has 3 themed bedrooms - Kama Sutra, Venus and Tao. Each comes with sable brushes, feathers, massage oils, incense, Indian silk overhangs, red lanterns, perfumed candles, erotic illustrations and a basket of love toys, which are included for 227 pounds a night.

"That's why we call it our love hotel," News.com.au quoted Franzen as saying.

"Some people have called it an orgasm hotel. But that gives completely the wrong impression. We aren't tacky, sleazy or fetishistic.

"It's a place of romance and romantic bonding. We hope Venusgarden is the ultimate romantic destination. It's a place for couples. But firstly for women," she added.

Katie Green suffered from a condition known as breast asymmetry as one of her breasts was a B-cup and the other was a D

Katie Green suffered from a condition known as breast asymmetry as one of her breasts was a B-cup and the other was a DGazing up at her own image towering across a billboard in London's West End, Katie Green felt a pang of guilt.

It was August 2008 and the former New Look shop assistant from Chichester, West Sussex, had been unveiled as the latest face - and body - of Wonderbra lingerie, a position previously held by Czech beauty Eva Herzigova and burlesque star Dita Von Teese.

The bra manufacturers claimed Katie, who at 5ft 10in and 10st 5lb is as far from the size-zero aesthetic of many models, represented 'real women' everywhere.

It was a moment the 24-year-old had so wanted to be proud of. Yet the picture was not all it seemed.

In reality, Katie - who would, bizarrely, later step out with Lib Dem MP Lembit Opik - suffered from a condition known as breast asymmetry. Her right breast measured 2in and a full two cup sizes smaller than her left - one was a B-cup while the other was a D.

During the shoot, Katie had been asked to stuff her bra (as she often did) using a silicone rubber prosthetic, known as a chicken fillet. The photos had also been airbrushed to give her a perfect, symmetrical appearance.

'As a teenager, I had looked at images like these featuring models with perfect breasts and felt terribly self-conscious that I didn't measure up,' she explains.

'Back then, I didn't know the images were manipulated. Of course, in reality most models I know have funny moles or lumpy thighs that get airbrushed away. I understand why they retouched the photos, but in a way I felt as if I was now complicit in some kind of lie.'

The reason some women develop asymmetrical breasts is not fully understood, although genetics are thought to play a part.

During puberty, the hormone oestrogen triggers the growth of breast tissue, usually about two years after the first menstrual period. Tissue continues to grow for up to four years and during that time there can be differences in size.

For most women, final breast shape and size occurs at the age of about 21. Pregnancy and menopause - both hormonal events - can lead to further growth or change.

The three major determinants of breast appearance are size, shape of the individual breast and the position of the breast and nipple when standing in an upright position.

About 90 per cent of women have some degree of asymmetry, yet experts estimate as many as one in 20 has a problem so pronounced it could be considered a deformity.

Lack of almost any breast development, known as hypoplasia, and its opposite, hyperplasia - when the breasts are too large - are other common problems that can occur on their own or at the same time, leading to asymmetry.

Aside from self-esteem issues, unusually large or lopsided breasts can lead to a host of other health problems, such as back and neck pain due to their weight, and skin irritation due to ill-fitting underwear.

'At school I was actually bullied for being flat-chested,' says Katie. 'Then, aged 17, I finally began to develop and that's when I noticed my left side was much bigger than the other.

'I was still quite shy and too embarrassed to say anything so I didn't tell my mother or go to the doctors. I just hoped they would sort themselves out.

'Boyfriends were pretty understanding - it was other girls who were most unkind. I would go to great lengths to disguise my figure, stuffing toilet tissue in my bra - which made life very difficult when I went swimming.

'I wore baggy clothes, anything that would draw attention away from my chest.'

At the time Katie, the youngest of four, lived with her parents, Trudy, now 60, and Keith, 64, in their West Sussex home.

She was working as a shop assistant in New Look in Chichester and planning to apply to the police force when she won a competition to become the new face of Wonderbra.

She recalls: 'At school I loved singing and drama. I studied for a diploma in performing arts at college. Despite my insecurities about my body, I was pretty confident. I had my bad days but I was able to paint on a smile and go out and be happy.

'When I saw the competition advertised in a magazine, I thought, "Why not - I'll never win," so I went along to the audition. I was utterly stunned when they picked me out of 4,000 girls. I was also worried and thought, "How could I do this with my wonky cleavage?" So on the day of the shoot I confessed and was amazed at everybody's reaction. They were so kind and very sympathetic.

'For the shoot they padded out one cup to give my smaller breast a boost and the stylist also pulled my long hair over one shoulder.'

After the Wonderbra campaign, Katie was due to sign to Premier Model Management, the agency Naomi Campbell and Claudia Schiffer were signed up with at the time.

The agency demanded she lose weight. Taking advantage of the ensuing media storm, Ultimo underwear owner Michelle Mone enlisted Katie as their new ' spokesmodel', following in the footsteps of Rachel Hunter and Penny Lancaster, saying: 'She has an incredible shape and represents real women throughout the UK.'

Katie, who was unceremoniously dumped by Ultimo the following year after paparazzi photographs of her sunbathing topless appeared in some tabloid newspapers, says: 'I was always honest with clients. I made it quite clear that I had one breast much smaller than the other so it wouldn't be an issue.

'But of course, in the Ultimo pictures I was wearing a chicken fillet, and the photos were manipulated and airbrushed to make me look symmetrical.'

Ultimately, the model admits it was partly looking at these images that made her want to seek medical help.

'I might have appeared perfect on the underwear boxes but every time I glanced down, I saw a baggy bra cup on one side,' she says.

'If I wore a bra that fitted my smaller breast, the straps would cut into my skin which was painful. I wished I could wake up in the morning and look as good as I did in the photos.'

If breast asymmetry is pronounced, then surgery is an option. This may involve augmentation of one or both breasts, reduction of one or both breasts if hypertrophy is present, or even augmentation of one breast and reduction in size of the other.

Sometimes there is sagging, known as ptosis, of one of the asymmetrical breasts that needs to be corrected at the same time. Surgery to correct asymmetry is about 90 per cent successful. However, few surgeons will agree to operate on a difference of less than a cup size.

Katie was unwilling to have breast implants.

'I didn't want breasts like footballs,' she says, 'or great big scars across my chest.'

Instead, she opted for a new minimally invasive treatment known as platelet injection fat transfer ( PIFT) , first developed to reconstruct the breasts after a mastectomy. During the four-hour procedure, fat is removed from the patient's flank or thigh areas.

'Traditional or heat-assisted liposuction may damage the fat cells needed for the graft so we gently aspirate the fat (remove the liquid using a syringe) with a blunt cannula. About 200ml of fat was used to balance and shape Katie's breast,' says Dr Aamer Khan at London's Harley Street Skin Clinic.

Roughly 100ml of fat is needed to boost the breasts by one cup size.

Although it is considered safe to remove up to nine pints of fat in one liposuction session, the structure of a single breast would be unable to support much more than one pint of liquid.

After the fat harvest, a small amount of the patient's blood is placed in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, which is rich in platelets - cells that aid healing - and stem cells. These are often called the body's building blocks as they are juvenile cells that have the ability to turn into almost any other kind of cell.

Stem cells help the graft to form new blood vessels and 'take'. They are mixed with the fat, and injected into the breast.

'Evidence shows that if successful, it is a permanent enhancement. The procedure can be repeated safely at any time if necessary,' says Dr Khan.

He adds: 'There are always risks with surgery, even though we use only local anaesthetic - but the risks of an allergic reaction are minimal.

'Another problem, historically, with liquid injected into the breast is calcification - nodules of hardened tissue. But, in our experience, it is rare for this to happen with fat transfers.

'There is a standard look you get with silicone implants, but with this technique you get a much more natural appearance. The patient can go home the same day and the only evidence will be tiny pinpricks where the fat has been injected. And these marks will heal and disappear within a few days.'

Katie, who shares a three-bedroom detached house in Northampton with her fiance, building construction manager Nathan Marsh, 35, underwent the £4,500 surgery in January.

'I won't lie - I was sore afterwards around my thighs where they removed the fat, and in my breast, which was also swollen and bruised,' says Katie.

'Nathan came and picked me up from the hospital and I had to wear a sports bra day and night for two weeks to minimise swelling and provide support.

'After a week, I had the stitches removed around the puncture marks where the cannula had pierced the skin. And now you can't see a single scar on my body. The result has been nothing short of miraculous.'

Katie, who has gone on to model for lingerie company La Senza and became the face of Special K breakfast cereal, says she did not undergo the treatment for her career.

'Honestly, my chest was the one thing I disliked about my body. I did it for me. For the first time ever, I have matching breasts as well as thinner thighs.

'But best of all, I've chucked away my chicken fillets.'

Nick Diaz agrees to Box Jeff Lacy in Fall

Nick Diaz agrees to Box Jeff Lacy in FallTaking full advantage of the contract he signed with Strike force pre-merger, Nick Diaz has signed a tentative agreement box Jeff Lacy (25-4) this fall. Cesar Gracie, Diaz’s manager, has stated that a date and venue have been decided upon though neither has been announced thus far. Gracie also said that unless the UFC were to ask Diaz to fight current welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre during the same time period the boxing match will take place.

The contract that Diaz signed with Strikeforce last December allowed for one boxing match in the 2011 calendar year. Diaz has only one professional boxing credit to his name, a 2005 unanimous decision victory. After the UFC purchased Strikeforce Dana White has made it clear that they will honor all contracts that are on the book. Still, White said last weekend that he plans to travel to Stockton, California to meet with Diaz and discuss his future with the company. Most analysts agree that it would be an attempt to dissuade Diaz from taking a professional boxing bout. According to Gracie that meeting has yet to happen.

Many feel as though Diaz is the only true contender out their for St-Pierre’s title but the fact that Diaz is currently Strike force’s welterweight champion has created contractual and logistical issues for booking the fight. Also, many fans are more interested in seeing a potential super fight between St-Pierre and UFC middleweight champ Anderson Silva.

Diaz is also aligned with boxing promoter Don Chagrin, but since those two came together Diaz has been exclusive to MMA. Gracie mentioned that if a St-Pierre fight were to materialize that Chagrin would have to be “cool” with the cancellation.

new kissing machine invented by the Japanese

new kissing machine invented by the JapaneseIn a bid to enhance long-distance relationships, Japanese researchers have developed a kissing machine that lets users 'transmit the feeling of a kiss' over the Internet.

The device, created by the Kajimoto Laboratory at the University of Electro-Communications, consists of a hardware receptacle that is placed into the mouth.

Then the software records your tongue motion and transmits them to the other connected device, which moves accordingly.

The lab is still working on recreating other elements of a kiss other than tongue movement - like breathing and the sense of taste.

"The elements of a kiss include the sense of taste, the manner of breathing, and the moistness of the tongue. If we can recreate all of those I think it will be a really powerful device," the Sydney Morning Herald quoted them as explaining in a video showcasing the device prototype.

"If you have a popular entertainer use this device and record it, that could be hugely popular if you offer it to fans," they concluded.

Top 10 Abused Prescription Drugs

Nowadays, more so than ever before, getting high doesn’t have to involve a trip to the projects to ask a sketchy man on the sidewalk for drugs. It can be as simple as opening up the medicine cabinet and eating two or three pills. With medicine being abused so rampantly, I believe it is beneficial for parents and friends alike to be aware of what prescription drugs can be abused, and just what these substances do to one’s body.

10 Ambien

Ambien Abused Prescription Drugs
Zolpidem is a nonbenzodiazepine (similar to a benzo, but with a different molecular structure) drug with powerful hypnotic and sedative effects. It’s prescribed by doctors for treatment of insomnia, and in rarer cases as a muscle relaxant. Due to its GABA antagonist properties, it is similar to alcohol in its ability to relax inhibitions and promote sociability. In especially high doses, the onset of amnesia can be quite potent, resulting in the user having a “night they can’t remember”. With adolescents having limited access to alcohol, abusing their parents’ Ambien isn’t uncommon. Although it would be a legitimate medicine that a doctor saw fit, those prescribed it should keep in mind driving, or yielding heavy machinery (such as chainsaws) is, by no means, a good idea while influenced by this drug. Eminem had a reasonably publicized affair with zolpidem in 2009, after he started using it to help him sleep through the stresses of his life.

9 Seroquel
Seroquel Abused Prescription Drugs

Although antipsychotics are rarely thought of as “drugs of abuse”, quetiapine deserves recognition on this list due to its huge recreational value in prison. Prescribed for schizophrenia, bipolar disorders, and insomnia, Seroquel doesn’t seem, at all, like a drug you’d want anyone to even know you’re prescribed. However, the tranquilizer has earned the name “Jailhouse Heroin” among our citizens who are paying their debts to society. Abusers seek its anxiolytic (anxiety reducing) effects, as well as its tendency to reduce feelings and provide a careless state of mind. Prisoners commonly trade their meals and money for these pills, only to find their benefit outweighed by the price they paid after the effects have ended. Even though this is a prison drug if there ever was one, note that is also serves recreational use among the outside, as well. It can be used to come down off uppers like cocaine and amphetamines, reduce anxiety during “bad trips”, and combines with cocaine to form a “Q-ball”. With a combination like that being well documented, it is clear that “Suzie Qs” are among the most unintelligent drugs one could do.

8 Dilaudid

Dilaudid Abused Prescription Drugs
Often prescribed for pain (and occasionally bad cough), Dilaudid is known as more of an “all or nothing pharmaceutical”. This is because abusers can take well above the allowed dose and not feel a bit of the euphoric opiate heaven he’s used to, or the said person may claim it’s the closest to heaven they’ve ever been with a moderately low dose. The oral bioavailability (the fraction of a substance that can be used by the bodily systems before it’s lost en route) of hydromorphone is very low, therefore popping three 4mg “dilly dallies” may not blow one’s mind in the least, but administering it through a needle could well be compared to intravenous heroin. With all opiates being able to be injected via one method or another, Dilaudid may not seem special, but it does have one unique property. It can be liquefied through “cold shaking”, meaning hydromorphone requires no heat for water solubility. This factor is taken advantage of by many heroin addicts in need of a shot; however the difficulty of abuse via oral administration makes it one of the safer opiates to have around a house with adolescents.

7 Xanax
Xanax Abused Prescription Drugs

Benzodiazepine abuse is very common among those self-medicating for stress and anxiety, but one particular benzo, by the name of alprazolam, is also very common among recreational users seeking a “high”. A physician will prescribe a patient Xanax for panic disorders, insomnia, and, more rarely, social anxiety. Although it’s available in doses of .25, .5, and 1 milligram, the most popular tablet on the street is the 2mg Xanax “bar”. They are either crushed and insufflated or popped. With intranasal use especially, the onset is very rapid and instills relaxation, reduced, alcohol-like inhibitions, and potent apathy in the user. Alprazolam, and other benzodiazepines, like Valium, Klonopin, and Ativan, are abused to enhance sociability and to let one “be themself” around social gatherings, like malls and parties. What makes benzos more dangerous to abuse, versus opiates, are the withdrawals. A long time addicted user will get panic attacks and seizures when he can’t redose.

6 Desoxyn

Desoxyn Abused Prescription Drugs

No, you didn’t just misread that subtitle. Methamphetamine, or “speed”, “crank”, “ice”, ext. is available by prescription in the United States, New Zealand, and Canada for ADHD treatment, as well as obesity, due to its appetite suppressing effects. Good luck trying to get it legally though, if you’re persuasive enough to convince a doctor that your ADHD is so bad, that only meth can control you, you should seek a career in law. I bet Johnny Cochrane could’ve gotten a script! Okay, not to get off topic. When Desoxyn is obtained, it obviously has very high street value, for its drug and for its consistent dosing. A meth user never knows what he’s getting in a bag he got off the street, but a 10mg Desoxyn tablet would be seen as a “good batch” all day.

5 Narcotic syrups

Naracotic Syrups Abused Prescription Drugs

Prescription cough syrups (such as Tussoinex and Phenergan) containing narcotics such as codeine and hydrocodone have become very popular among young adults through pop culture. Several rappers have made it clear that they not only enjoy recreationally drinking “purple drank”, but they encourage it, almost as much one would normally encourage a safer drug, like marijuana. Like other opiates, they instill euphoric, pleasantly itchy, and relaxing effects within the drinker. A popular term “lean” describes putting a jolly rancher in your bottle for flavor. Although codeine and hydrocodone are very rarely abused to the point of overdose, it should be noted that the syrups are often combined with drugs like acetaminophen and guaifenesin, which will cause bodily harm much more rapidly. Codeine and hydrocodone are also available in pill form, under brand names Tylenol 1-4 and Vicodin, respectively.

4 Adderall

Adderall Abused Prescription Drugs

The all-too-famous “speed in a pill”, Adderall is provided to adolescents like candy it seems. By combining l-amp and d-amp in a 25% to 75% ratio, it can provide people with trouble concentrating miraculous relief. But attention disorders are exceptionally easy to fake, and, therefore, many high school entrepreneurs acquire it just to make extra cash from their friends at school. Amphetamines, ranging from Adderall to meth to Ecstasy (methylenedioxymethamphetamine), are valued for their energetic, stimulating, and oftentimes euphoric effects. Adderall, along with Ritalin, abuse is rampant among high school and college students during exams, due to their ability to exponentially increase focus and motivation.

3 Laudanum

Laudanum Abused Prescription Drugs

Adding a little history to our list, Laudanum was coined in early 17th century London, although preparations of opium extractions date back quite a bit further. It is an alcoholic mixture of powdered opium, varying in potency. The active ingredients, therefore, include codeine, morphine, and ethanol. This potent mixture was treated as an alternative poison to English users, viewed as more socially acceptable than smoking opium, which a good fraction of the Chinese were addicted to at the time. Long before our modern Rx system, this medicine was readily available to anyone, and was soon found to be no less harmful than nature’s own narcotic preparation. The tincture continued to be used pharmaceutically in the States by many, until the early 20th century when it was deemed unfit to consume without a doctor’s overseeing. Its history in Europe and America is well known, but what is not is that it is actually still available today. Laudanum remains available by prescription, and is most commonly used for newborns that were born to opiate addicted mothers.

2 OxyContin

Oxycontin Abused Prescription Drugs

Also branded as Percocet with acetaminophen, as well as several others, oxycodone has probably been responsible for more harm, in the past twenty years, than any other pill on this list. It was synthesized by German scientists in the early 1900s, but not used widely in medicine until much later. The drug gives users a blissful, heavenly euphoria that is almost unmatched in the narcotic world. In the mid-90s Purdue manufactured OxyContin; a time released tablet containing enough oxycodone to get a user high many times over, in the higher milligram doses. When taken orally this provided chronic pain patients, with cancer and disabilities, a new outlook on life. They could live pain free without taking pills consistently throughout the day. When abused by chewing, insufflation, or injection this pill was the ultimate score until quite recently. OxyContin is now manufactured via a formula that is much harder to abuse; however, other preparations of oxycodone (e.g. Roxicodone) are still very popular in the opiate community.

1 Opana

Opana Abused Prescription Drugs

The common Joe may have never heard of Opana before, but it is number one on this list because it is becoming significantly more popular with abusers, now that OxyContin is nearly useless to them. In the near future oxymorphone will likely be one of the most misused painkillers on the market. It is similar to other narcotics, providing pain relief for those in need, but its euphoria not only exceeds that of oxycodone, but some will argue heroin as well. A person with a low tolerance will get an indescribably rich high off about one-eighth of a high dose (40mg ER) Opana through insufflation. As more thrill seekers spread the word of Opana’s potential, we will see oxymorphone become the new pharmaceutical dope; the drug of choice for anyone with access to an unlocked medicine cabinet.
