Rock Shelters

Thousands of people living near a Philippine volcano have taken shelter in evacuation centres as officials warned Sunday of health risks from ash and toxic gases spewing from the rumbling crater.

The Bihar assembly was adjourned for a few hours on Wednesday, the last day of the Budget session, as opposition Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) members stalled the proceedings, demanding resignation of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar in the wake of an order by a special POCSO court on Muzaffarpur sex scandal.

Close on the heels of the Muzaffarpur shelter home rape scandal rocking the state, another case of alleged sexual harassment of women at a short stay home in Bihar's Hajipur has come to light with the police today saying it has arrested the main accused, a Vaishali district administration official.

The issue of alleged sexual exploitation of girls at a government-funded shelter home in Bihar rocked both houses of the Bihar Assembly on Tuesday, with the opposition RJD sticking to its demand of a CBI probe, while the police said there was no need to involve the central agency.

Like many young punks, Gerson Govea saw himself as a misfit. He is considered the last of the most hardcore members of the "frikis," or "freaks," as Cuba's unique breed of hippy-punk dropouts is known. They usually infect themselves with AIDS in order to get into the relative safety and comfort of a state AIDS clinic.

Scientists have uncovered evidence of one of the earliest known rock shelters in an archipelago in Australia, which indicates Aboriginal occupation in the area before and during the last Ice Age.

A teenage girl, who was on the Utoya Island when gunman Anders Behring Breivik launched his deadly attack at the youth camp, sent her mother text messages as she hid under a rock. Julie Bremnes, 16, called her mother as she took shelter with friends under a rock on the island of Utoya when Breivik started his rampage, the Daily Express reported.
