A couple in the southern Pakistani city of Karachi have been charged with murdering their baby daughter as part of a black magic ritual

Officers found the body of the four-month-old girl buried in the couple's house. Doctors say it had been there for about four days. They believe the couple were planning to murder their second daughter, a girl of three, who police found tied up. Superstitious rituals are not uncommon in Pakistan.

Carrying extra weight on your hips, buttocks and thighs is good for your health, protecting against heart and metabolic problems

Hip fat mops up harmful fatty acids and contains an anti-inflammatory agent that stops arteries clogging. Big behinds are preferable to extra fat around the waistline, which gives no such protection. Too little fat around the hips can lead to serious metabolic problems, as occurs in Cushing's syndrome.

Tuberculosis in San Francisco

San Francisco has a high rate of tuberculosis because of the city’s large foreign-born population.

Britons are suspicious towards Muslims

The British public are concerned at the rise of Islam in Britain, according to a major survey. More than half the population would be strongly opposed to a mosque being built in their neighborhood, the study found. A large proportion of the country believes that the multicultural experiment has failed, with 52% considering that Britain is deeply divided along religious lines and 45% saying that religious diversity has had a negative impact. Only a quarter of Britons feel positive towards Muslims, while more than a third report feeling “cool” towards them. The findings, to be published in the respected British Social Attitudes Survey, show that far greater opposition to Islam than to any other faith and reveal that most people are willing to limit freedom of speech in an attempt to silence religious extremists.

Israel's government has approved plans for the construction of a barrier along its border with Egypt in a bid to keep out illegal migrants

It will be built along two parts of the border - near the Red Sea city of Eilat and on the edge of the Gaza Strip. Benjamin Netanyahu said the decision was taken to secure Israel's Jewish and democratic character. In recent years, thousands of migrants have crossed into Israel via Egypt. At least 17 migrants, mostly African, have been killed since May 2009. According to Israeli police estimates between 100-200 illegal immigrants cross into Israel from Egypt every week. Eritrea is the most common country of origin for people trying to cross illegally from Egypt to Israel, followed by Ethiopia and Sudan.

Christian churches firebombed by Muslims in Malaysia

Attackers firebombed another church in Malaysia, the latest violence amid widespread Muslim rage over the Christian use of the word Allah as a term for God. It follows the firebombings of three other churches. The acts stirred unease in the diverse society - which is 60% Muslim, 19% Buddhist, 9% Christian and 6% Hindu. The violence comes as Muslims protest a recent court ruling that allowed a Catholic newspaper to use the word "Allah" for God. Muslims believe Allah, an Arabic word, should only be used by Muslims. The ruling was stayed after the government appealed the decision, according to Bernama, the Malaysian National News Agency.

Women can sense if men are attracted to them by the smell of his sweat

The smell of a man's sweat differs according to what mood he is in and women can pick up on changes that indicate attraction, according to new research. The study, led by Dr Denise Chen, assistant professor of psychology at Rice University, in Texas, involved introducing two types of male sweat to 19 women in their 20s - one type was labelled 'normal', the other 'sexual'. The sweat was gathered from a selection of men who had polyester pads attached to their armpits. The 'normal' sweat was gathered during a 20-minute session in which the men were asked to watch educational videos. They were then asked to watch 20 minutes of an erotic video, during which the 'sexual' sweat was gathered. The female participants were exposed to these different scents while researchers monitored their brain activity. The women did not realize it but their brains not only recognised the scents but responded to them. Dr Chen said the 'sexual' sweat lit up different regions of the participants' brains. She added her results suggested the female brain is capable of recognizing the smell of a man who is attracted to her.

Ashkenazi genes and breast cancer

Most women of Ashkenazi Jewish descent should be tested for the most common genetic mutations that cause breast and ovarian cancer, Canadian researchers have found. About 1% of the women they tested had a mutation in either the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene, which carries a very high risk of cancer. Women with the mutated BRCA1 gene have a lifetime risk of breast cancer of about 70% and a 30%-40% risk of ovarian cancer. Those with a mutated BRCA2 gene have a 50% risk of breast cancer and a 20% risk of ovarian cancer. The defective genes occur in about 2.5% of the Ashkenazi Jewish population. Ashkenazi Jews account for an estimated 80% of the world's Jews and have a very high incidence of certain genetic diseases, including Tay-Sachs, Niemann-Pick, Gaucher and Canavan diseases, Bloom Syndrome and Fanconi anemia.

The heavy eye make-up favored by ancient Egyptians such as Cleopatra may have had medical as well as aesthetic benefits

The study, published in the journal Analytical Chemistry, suggests it helped to protect against eye disease. The key appears to be lead salts contained in the make-up. At very low levels, salts produce nitric oxide, which boosts the immune system to fight off bacteria which can cause eye infection. The make-up used by the ancient Egyptians to darken and enhance the eyes sometimes took up to a month to concoct. In theory, because it contained lead it might actually have posed a risk to health. But an analysis by scientists from the Louvre Museum and the CNRS research institute found that in very low doses lead could actually have a positive effect.

In 75% of gun crime in London, England the victim and suspect are both from the black community

One man has died and another is in hospital after a shooting at a pub in South London. The first man was 34 and he died in hospital after the attack at the Newton Arms pub, in Queen’s Road, Croydon. His next of kin have been informed but the victim has not been formally identified. A second man, 26, is in a critical but stable condition. Police are looking for a black male who fled the scene in what is believed to be a dark four-wheel-drive vehicle. The shooting is being dealt with by detectives from the Metropolitan Police’s Operation Trident, which investigates gun crime in the black community. It was set up in 1998 to try to stop a spate of shootings and murders among young blacks in London.

Lebanese man sentenced to death for sorcery in Saudi Arabia

A Lebanese man who hosted a popular TV show where he gave callers advice and sometimes predicted the future was sentenced to death by a court in Saudi Arabia for sorcery. Ali Hussain Sibat's popular call-in show was broadcast on a satellite TV channel in Arabic around the Middle East from Beirut. In May 2008, Sibat traveled to Saudi Arabia on a pilgrimage to the holy cities of Mecca and Medina. His lawyer, May al-Khansa, says Saudi religious police recognized Sibat from his TV work and arrested him. Human rights groups say such cases are on the rise in the strictly religious country. Saudi officials have arrested Saudis and non-Saudis, Muslims and non-Muslims on sorcery charges. Recently, a Saudi man was arrested for smuggling a book about witchcraft into the country. An Asian man was accused of using his powers to solve marital disputes. And a third man was given a death sentence for trying to learn magic. In 2007, Saudi authorities executed an Egyptian pharmacist for sorcery.

A rabbi has been given two years in prison

The head of an Orthodox Jewish sect has been sentenced to two years in prison for a tax evasion and money-laundering scheme that continued over a decade, spanned two continents, and cost taxpayers millions of dollars in lost revenue, authorities said. Naftali Tzi Weisz, 61, the Brooklyn, N.Y.-based grand rabbi of the Spinka sect, pleaded guilty to conspiracy in August 2009 for his part in a scheme in which people made tax-exempt donations to charitable organizations and were later reimbursed for up to 95% of their contributions. The ruse allowed contributors to claim bogus tax deductions, even though most of their money was funneled back to them via international transfers, overseas accounts and an elaborate underground banking network that wound through Los Angeles' downtown jewelry district, according to authorities. In addition to Weisz, other religious leaders and businessmen have been convicted of taking part in the scheme and sentenced to prison terms ranging from four months to two years. The plot was revealed through an informant, wiretaps and hidden cameras, prosecutors said.

Blacks tend to carry around less of an unhealthy type of abdominal fat than whites, even though they suffer more from obesity-linked illness

The new finding suggests that body-mass index (BMI) guidelines may need to be tailored to specific racial groups to better reflect risk, experts say. Adipose (fat) tissue is found throughout the body. Subcutaneous adipose tissue is found just under the skin, while visceral adipose tissue is found in the abdominal cavity around the organs. Fat settling around the organs has been linked to development of obesity-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. But you can't tell just by looking at someone how much visceral fat someone has. Even a pot belly won't tell you for sure because visceral fat is deep within the body cavity. In the study, researchers used computer tomography (CT scans) and dual- energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to measure visceral fat in about 1,400 white men and women and 570 black men and women aged 18 to 84. Participants' height, weight, BMI and total body fat composition were also measured. At a given body fat percentage, black men and women had lower visceral fat than white men and women. Conversely, blacks also tended to have higher subcutaneous fat than whites. Researchers controlled for age and smoking status, among other variables. Despite the tendency to have less visceral fat, black Americans are still at higher risk of dying from obesity-related diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. One explanation for this is that blacks have higher overall obesity rates overall. About 31% of white adults and 45% of black adults are obese, according to the study. The findings bring up the issue of whether the "one-size-fits-all" BMI guidelines apply equally to all races. Previous research has suggested there may be racial variations in what constitutes a healthy BMI. Diabetes risk for Asians start to rise at a BMI of about 23, for example. An optimal BMI for blacks may also vary somewhat.

Jewish pundit comes out against immigration

Steve Sailer on David Frum:

Frum’s bravest stance is for immigration restriction. He even links occasionally to VDARE.com and to my blog. He was missing in action on the crucial immigration issue for a while, but now it has become a fairly routine, if limited, part of his repertoire.

Unfortunately, Frum hasn’t figured out any way to make immigration restriction sound cooler to all those Washington D.C. college graduates he wants the GOP to appeal to (other than to try to silence VDARE.com).

This independent-minded view on immigration is very much to Frum’s credit because he is Jewish (not just ethnocentrically, but also religiously) in an era when Ellis Island schmaltz has drowned out most intelligent debate over immigration. The sad thing is that Frum can’t call attention to his personal triumph of reason over prejudice, because he is driven to sputtering outrage whenever anybody points out the substantial correlation between neocon ideology and Jewishness.

So, I’ll do it for him:

Frum deserves praise for ranking with Mickey Kaus as one of the very few prominent Jewish pundits who, through study of the facts and sheer reasoning power, has publicly come to the conclusion that America needs less immigration.

Wider racial achievement gap in Washington D.C. schools

The average scores of white D.C. fourth-graders over the past two years grew from 262 to 270 (on a scale of 500), but their African American peers' rose just three points, from 209 to 212. The achievement gap actually grew between 2007 and 2009, from 53 to 58 points. African American progress in the eighth grade remained essentially flat, dipping a statistically insignificant one point, from 245 to 244. Average white scores were not included in the test results because the sample size wasn't large enough. The picture across a six-year stretch isn't more encouraging. The gap separating white and black fourth-graders in 2003, when the first National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) in the District was given, was 60 scale points (262 to 202). Although the scores achieved by children in both groups have increased during this period, the difference has barely narrowed to 58. Some education advocates in the District expressed concern recently that the gains celebrated by Chancellor Michelle A. Rhee and Mayor Adrian M. Fenty (D) were propelled largely by white students who are already high achievers.

People blessed with youthful faces are more likely to live to a ripe old age than those who look more than their years

Danish scientists say appearance alone can predict survival, after they studied 387 pairs of twins. The researchers asked nurses, trainee teachers and peers to guess the age of the twins from mug shots. Those rated younger-looking tended to outlive their older-looking sibling, the British Medical Journal reports. The researchers also found a plausible biological explanation for their results. Key pieces of DNA called telomeres, which indicate the ability of cells to replicate, are also linked to how young a person looks. A telomere of shorter length is thought to signify faster ageing and has been linked with a number of diseases. In the study, the people who looked younger had longer telomeres.

An international scientific effort has revealed the genetics behind Asia's diversity

The Human Genome Organisation's (HUGO) Pan-Asian SNP Consortium carried out a study of almost 2,000 people across the continent. Their findings support the hypothesis that Asia was populated primarily through a single migration event from the south. The researchers found genetic similarities between populations throughout Asia and an increase in genetic diversity from northern to southern latitudes. The team screened genetic samples from 73 Asian populations for more than 50,000 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). These are variations in pieces of the DNA code, which can be compared to find out how closely related two individuals are genetically. The study found that, as expected, individuals who were from the same region, or who shared a common language also had a great deal in common genetically.

African American and Hispanic adults who smoke menthol cigarettes may be less likely to quit smoking than those who smoke regular cigarettes, a new study by researchers at the UMDNJ-School of Public Health has found. The researchers analyzed data from the 2005 National Health Interview Survey and identified 7,815 current and former cigarette smokers who had reported at least one attempt to quit smoking. Just 43.7% of African American adults and 48.1% of Hispanic adults who smoked menthol cigarettes were able to quit smoking. Overall, the researchers noted that non-whites tend to smoke fewer cigarettes per day and are about three times more likely than whites to smoke menthol cigarettes.

But on the packed dirt streets of Zubayr, Iraq’s scaled-down version of Harlem, African-Iraqis talk of discrimination so steeped in Iraqi culture that they are commonly referred to as abd — slave in Arabic — prohibited from interracial marriage and denied even menial jobs. Historians say that most African-Iraqis arrived as slaves from East Africa as part of the Arab slave trade starting about 1,400 years ago. They worked in southern Iraq’s salt marshes and sugar cane fields. Though slavery — which in Iraq included Arabs as well as Africans — was banned in the 1920s, it continued until the 1950s, African-Iraqis say.

Males carry the seeds of their own destruction in the genes present in their sperm, research suggests

Scientists working on mice have highlighted a specific gene that, although carried by both sexes, appears to be active only in males. They believe it allows males to grow bigger bodies - but at the expense of their longevity. Although the study was conducted on mice, the researchers believe it could apply to all mammals - including humans.

Swiss voters have supported a referendum proposal to ban the building of minarets, official results show

More than 57% of voters and 22 out of 26 cantons - or provinces - voted in favor of the ban. The proposal had been put forward by the Swiss People's Party, (SVP), the largest party in parliament, which says minarets are a sign of Islamization. The government opposed the ban, saying it would harm Switzerland's image, particularly in the Muslim world.

Israel doesn't trust young Muslim men

US-born Somalis recruited jihadists

Prosecutors in Minneapolis say they have charged 8 men with recruiting young Somali-Americans and sending them to Somalia to fight with an anti-government insurgency force linked to al-Qa'ida. In head-count terms, it is the largest terror cell to emerge in the US since the 9/11 attacks. The charges stem from a long-running investigation by the FBI in Minneapolis, the largest city in the state of Minnesota, which is home to a thriving Somali-American community. Officials believe that as many as 20 men may have been sent to Somalia in this way. In 2008, a naturalized US citizen, Shirwa Ahed, blew himself up in northern Somalia. It was believed to be the first time that an American citizen had carried out a terrorist suicide bombing. While the recruitment drive appears aimed at assisting the insurgency in Somalia, officials fear that once they have received terrorist training there, many of the men may return to carry out similar attacks on American soil.

The pursuit of white skin

Asians spend an estimated $18 billion a year to appear pale. As many as 50% of Taiwanese women (and growing numbers of men) are paying big money to medically alter their exteriors. According to a 2004 study by global marketing firm Synovate, nearly 40% of women in Taiwan, Hong Kong, South Korea, Malaysia and the Philippines used skin whitening and lightening products that year. Asian skin whitening has a tradition that stretches back centuries. The feminine ideal during the Han period for women of the court was almost unearthly white, white skin.

Scientists have discovered a gene which may help explain the causes of mental illness

The ABCA13 gene is partially inactive in patients with severe psychological conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression. It is hoped that identifying genes which make people more likely to develop psychiatric illness may lead to new treatments being developed. The international team of scientists was led by Edinburgh University. They studied the genes of 2,000 psychiatric patients and compared them with those of 2,000 healthy people. The study suggested that ABCA13 was faulty more frequently in patients with mental illness than in the control group.

Arab pop star calls black Egyptians monkeys

One of the Arab world's biggest pop stars has provoked a torrent of outrage after releasing a song which refers to black Egyptians as monkeys. Haifa Wehbe, an award-winning Lebanese diva who has been voted one of the world's most beautiful people, is now facing a lawsuit from Egyptian Nubians claiming the song has fuelled discrimination against them and made some Nubian children too afraid to attend school. The row has cast fresh light on the position within Egyptian society of Nubians, who are descended from one of Africa's most ancient black civilisations and yet often face marginalization in modern Egypt.

Hundreds of Muslim protesters burnt Christian-owned shops in Egypt

Hundreds of Muslim protesters have burnt Christian-owned shops in southern Egypt and attacked a police station where they believed a Christian accused of raping a Muslim girl was being held, a police official said. Police repelled the demonstrators in the town of Farshut using tear gas and also arrested 60 people during the clashes in which seven Coptic Christian-owned shops were destroyed, the official said. The protesters hurled stones at the police station after they heard that a Coptic Christian man accused of kidnapping and sexually assaulting a 12-year-old Muslim was being held there, he said. Roughly 10% of Egypt's 80-million-strong population are Coptic Christians, who complain of discrimination and are sometimes the target of sectarian attacks.

A Ugandan government bill is advocating the death penalty for gay people

Under the anti-homosexuality bill, now going through parliament, anyone repeatedly caught having sex with someone of the same sex faces the death penalty, while people who touch each other in a gay way could be jailed. A clause in the bill also punishes anyone who fails to report an offense within 24 hours of witnessing or finding out about it.

African-American women are twice as likely to suffer a late-pregnancy loss as white women

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health found that among more than 5 million pregnancies in 2001 and 2002, black women were more likely than white or Hispanic women to have a stillbirth. Among African Americans, 22 of every 1,000 pregnancies ended in a stillbirth. That compared with 10 and 10.5 per 1,000 among white and Hispanic women, respectively. Health conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes and certain complications during pregnancy - such as uterine bleeding and premature rupture of the sac surrounding the fetus - explained a larger share of black women's stillbirth risk compared with white and Hispanic women.

South Africa is one of the world’s most criminally violent countries

Every day, around 50 murders, 100 rapes, 700 burglaries and 500-plus violent assaults are officially recorded in South Africa. Although the murder figures may be fairly accurate, only around one in ten rapes are thought to be reported to the police. In a recent survey by the Medical Research Council in two provinces, more than one in four men aged 18-49 admitted to having committed at least one rape. What shocks people is not just the high level of crime but the wanton violence that usually accompanies it; gangs often kill people just for their mobile phones. It is not only whites (9% of the population) who complain. Almost everyone is afraid. In one poll 62% of South Africans said they would feel “very unsafe” walking alone in their district after dark.

Rabbi says that Jews can kill gentiles who threaten Israel

Just weeks after the arrest of alleged Jewish terrorist, Yaakov Teitel, a West Bank rabbi has released a book giving Jews permission to kill gentiles who threaten Israel. Rabbi Yitzhak Shapiro, who heads the Od Yosef Chai Yeshiva in the Yitzhar settlement, wrote in his book "The King's Torah" that even babies and children can be killed if they pose a threat to the nation. Shapiro based the majority of his teachings on passages quoted from the Bible, to which he adds his opinions and beliefs. "It is permissable to kill the Righteous among Nations even if they are not responsible for the threatening situation," he wrote, adding: "If we kill a Gentile who has sinned or has violated one of the seven commandments - because we care about the commandments - there is nothing wrong with the murder." Several prominent rabbis, including Rabbi Yithak Ginzburg and Rabbi Yaakov Yosef, have recommended the book to their students and followers.
