2 Explosions kill 55 in Damascus. CSF Rieti.

digilander.libero.it In the Syrian capital of Damascus, 2 powerful explosions have reportedly killed at least 55 people, including civilians and soldiers. The blasts occurred in close succession near a building of an intelligence agency in central Damascus on Thursday morning. The interior ministry says that more than 300 others were also wounded in what it calls a suicide-bomb attack by terrorists, using 2 vehicles. The TV network has repeatedly broadcast images from the site, including a number of charred cars and emergency personnel transporting casualties or trying to extinguish fires caused by the explosions. In a telephone interview with NHK, an anti-government activist said the blasts were terror attacks by government forces who aim to use the incident to justify their crackdown on civilians. The crackdown on protesters continues even after a UN mission began last month to monitor a ceasefire between the government and opposition forces. Damascus has been rocked by a series of bomb attacks against government buildings since January. A group linked with the international terrorist network Al Qaeda is suspected of involvement.

Pioneer car navigator shows data in front of eyes. CSF Rieti

digilander.libero.it Japanese electronics maker Pioneer has developed what it says is the world's first car navigation system that displays information in front of the drivers' eyes using laser beams. Data is shown by firing lasers onto an almost transparent plastic sheet situated below the sun-visor on the windscreen. With conventional navigation devices, the driver needs to look away from the road to check the screen. Pioneer says the plastic sheet allows the driver to receive information while looking ahead. To avoid distracting the driver, the system shows a minimum amount of data, such as arrows to indicate direction, and large-font numbers to show distance to destinations. The new product will launch in July. It will cost the equivalent of about 500 dollars more than conventional systems. Sales of car navigation systems in Japan have been stagnant in recent years. Pioneer's Motoyuki Yamashita, who planned the new device, says the company hopes it will revitalize the market. Tuesday, May 08, 2012 16:53 +0900 (JST)

Greek PM abandons coalition effort. CSF Rieti

The leader of Greece's New Democracy Party says he has given up hope of forming a coalition government led by his party. Antonis Samaras made the announcement on Monday. The conservative Samaras held talks with the leaders of other parties after his coalition with the PASOK party lost its parliamentary majority in Sunday's general election. The leaders of all parties except PASOK refused to join a coalition. They oppose the austerity measures introduced by Samaras.Samaras says he has abandoned talks with other parties before exhausting the 3-day legal period. The chance to build a ruling coalition will now pass to Alexis Tsipras, leader of the Radical Left Coalition. But he has already vowed only to work with some of the left-wing parties, making a parliamentary majority unlikely. If Tsipras fails, the PASOK party will be handed the chance to build a coalition. If none of the parties can form a governing alliance, a new election will be called, which could reignite concerns over Europe's credit crisis. Tuesday, May 08, 2012 06:47 +0900 (JST)
