From the BBC:

Kyrgyz security services have seized a contacts database belonging to murdered Uzbek journalist Alisher Saipov.

The 26-year-old was shot dead by an unidentified gunman as he walked out of his office in the city of Osh, near the border with Uzbekistan, on Wednesday.

Saipov was one of the most outspoken journalists in Central Asia and was well-known for his harsh criticism of Uzbekistan's President, Islam Karimov.

A Kyrgyz official has said Uzbek agents may have been involved in the murder.

Ombudsman Tursunbay Bakir Uulu said that according to reports received by Kyrgyz security officials, a "special service" of the neighbouring republic had been ordered to kill the journalist.

Here is the Reporters without Borders report on Uzbekistan for 2006.

The organization calls Uzbekistan's President Islam Karimov a predator of press freedom.

The Committee to Protect Journalists called on Kyrgyzstan's President Kurmanbek Bakiyev to fully investigate Saipov's slaying.

Nhem En will be asked to testify against former Khmer Rouge bosses at their crimes-against-humanity trial in Cambodia. Nhem En had a unique job -- photographing the arrivals at Tuol Sleng prison in Phnom Penh, knowing they almost certainly wouldn't leave alive.

From the BBC:

Failing to make your bed in the morning may actually help keep you healthy, scientists believe.

Research suggests that while an unmade bed may look scruffy it is also unappealing to house dust mites thought to cause asthma and other allergies.

A Kingston University study discovered the bugs cannot survive in the warm, dry conditions found in an unmade bed.

The average bed could be home to up to 1.5 million house dust mites.

The bugs, which are less than a millimetre long, feed on scales of human skin and produce allergens which are easily inhaled during sleep.

The warm, damp conditions created in an occupied bed are ideal for the creatures, but they are less likely to thrive when moisture is in shorter supply.
