Twitter allowed in House of Commons

Twitter allowed in House of Commons, MPs vote in favour of using Twitter in Commons. MPs have backed a motion allowing them to use Twitter during Commons debates.

Some MPs had argued that the widespread use of smart phones and tablet computers during proceedings would bring the Commons into "disrepute".

App tops iTunes chart Katy Perry's Revenge 2

A free, two-song version of Katy Perry's Revenge has rocked its way up to the top of the App Store charts.
Sponsored by Microsoft's search engine Bing, Katy Perry's Revenge 2 lets you tap your way through Perry's smash song "Firework" and her latest hit, "E.T.," featuring Kanye West.

In case you've never played a Tap Tap Revenge game before, you're challenged to tap one of three colored orbs at the correct time, as it passes through a circle near the bottom of the screen. Similar in concept to Guitar Hero and Rock Band, you'll rack up points for staying in rhythm as long as you can without a mistake, pressing and holding some notes for a longer period of time and collecting multipliers for bonus points.

Behind the action are images of Katy Perry and graphics related to the song (such a seeing animated fireworks at key times throughout the song).

iPhone 5

After iPad 2 has already been presented officially, rumors about him, of course, stopped, but now they have focused on the new facility, Kojima became the iPhone 5, whose output is traditionally expected in June or July of this year. And that's what is rumored that it can be expected. Firstly, there are suggestions that the new iPhone will be aluminum body instead of glass, like the iPhone 4. Secondly, the antenna will be moved to another location (presumably for the logo) that will eliminate the problem of signal loss that exists in the current model. Oh, and thirdly, perhaps the iPhone 5 will be a new processor Apple A5, the same as in the new iPad 2. Smartphones are the fifth-generation iPhone will be equipped with wireless high-frequency communication modules, short-range

Hours Cristal Watch

Hours Cristal Watch

The main idea of hours of Cristal is to design a custom minute and hour hands, which is shaped like a crystal. However, the beauty of this concept is a bit inconsistent with the practicality and readability. Therefore, in the center of the dial is also a LED display that shows the exact time and date. One press of a button on the right side of the clock - and the LED-display shows you the time, two clicks - and you'll see the date.

Sacked star Charlie Sheen sues sitcom makers

Sacked star Charlie Sheen sues sitcom makers

Actor Charlie Sheen has filed a $100m (£62m) legal action against the makers of Two and a Half Men after being fired from the US sitcom.

In court papers filed on Thursday, Sheen claims producer Chuck Lorre spent years "harassing and disparaging" him.

Mr Lorre, the action alleges, "believes himself so wealthy and powerful that he can unilaterally decide to take money away from the dedicated cast and crew".

Mr Lorre's attorney called the claims "recklessly false and unwarranted".

A spokesman for Warner Bros, also cited in the papers filed at Los Angeles Superior Court, declined to comment on the action.

Prior to his sacking, Sheen had a contract with the studio that ran to the end of the 2012 TV season, earning him $2m (£1.2m) per episode.

The Cockerels Who Crow Ten Times A Minute

The Cockerels Who Crow Ten Times A Minute

For the particularly proud country dweller perhaps, having a cockerel quintet who make their raucous dawn squawks 74 times in seven minutes might be something to crow about.

But not for the neighbours of Roy and Valerie Rylands.

Their complaints that the noise wakes them as early as 2.30am were placed before magistrates yesterday.

Neighbour Roger Morgan called in council noise abatement officials, who logged the farmyard five-piece crowing 112 times in 20 minutes and 74 times in a seven-minute period.

The council officer ordered the Rylands to keep their birds quiet after agreeing that the crowing was intrusive, incessant and would disturb sleep.

But the Rylands, of Bwlch-y-ffridd, near Newtown, mid Wales, went to court to appeal against the ruling.

Jonathan Salmon, for Powys county council, told magistrates in Welshpool yesterday: ‘Its very easy to be flippant about it but that doesn’t do justice to any party in these proceedings.

He's Charlie Sheen, and You are Not

Say what you will about Charlie Sheen — that he is a raving lunatic, an egomaniac, a train wreck, an anti-Semite, a drug-addled cautionary tale — he has also actually made some sense this past week by offering up a reasonably astute analysis of the relationship between the public and its celebrities. In fact, Sheen seems to have decided to liberate himself by liberating us from the illusions we harbor about the stars.

Most of us want to think of celebrities as ordinary folks who, by dint of talent, hard work and a bit of luck, ascended to the heights. We want to think of them that way, one suspects, because it binds them more closely to us and because it allows us to indulge the fantasy that it could be us up there on the screen.

Pregnant Victoria Beckham dresses dark but fails to hide her growing baby bump

With pretty pastels and bold colour blocking prevalent in current spring and summer shows, Victoria Beckham is not taking on the trend.

The expectant mother opted instead for an all-black outfit as she arrived at Heathrow airport earlier today.

The expectant mother was looking chic as she jetted into the U.K. but while her dark look could be simply a style statement it is more likely to be a disguise for her growing baby bump.

The fashion designer arrived into London in a loose-fitting top, smart blazer, and over the knee suede stiletto heels.
