New skirmishes on Thai-Cambodian border (AFP)

PHNOM PENH (AFP) - troops Thai and Cambodian Exchange fire on their border disputed for a ninth straight day Saturday, both sides said, cast doubt on the efforts made at the end of the conflict more bloody in the country for decades.

The latest hostilities in two ancient temples on their shared border jungle broke out a few hours only after Cambodia announced a second truce in as many days, although denied Bangkok have knowledge of a new peace agreement.

Each side has traded accusations of lack of honesty to resolve a dispute that has killed 16 people and displaced more than 85,000 civilians.

"Even if it y a recent ceasefire...". A missed the Thailand yet, ", Foreign Minister Hor Namhong of Cambodia said to journalists in Phnom Penh on Saturday."

"It shows that we cannot trust our counterpart," he said in comments that echoed those made by Thai officials a day earlier.

The last outbreak was confirmed by the two countries, but while she was followed by a lull in the fight against, front-line soldiers remained on alert.

"Clashes could occur at any time," Commander Cambodian Suos Sothea told AFP by telephone.

There is no report of new deaths, while at least 10 Thai soldiers were injured in clashes on Friday night and Saturday morning, said the army in Thailand sources.

Ministry of defence of Cambodia has accused the Thailand in a statement using grenades and mortar fire on Cambodian troops in the latest clashes.

The two neighbours were the subject of international pressure to curb rising violence.

A first attempt at truce Thursday, confirmed by the two countries, has proved ephemeral and Bangkok has contradicted the more recent claims of Phnom Penh, saying talks Friday between commanders on the ground did not constitute a real breakthrough.

"We have actually talked to the level of local agents which I hope will lead to a real ceasefire", said the spokesman for the Thai Government Panitan Wattanayagorn.

Hor Namhong returned Saturday in the Hague, where he had presented a request to the International Court of justice to clarify a decision of 1962 - on the land around the ancient temple of Preah Vihear region which has inflamed tensions between the two neighbours.

"The application of the interpretation by the Court is a way to solve the problem peacefully," he said at Phnom Penh airport.

The Court decided there are more than four decades that the temple of 900 years belonged to Cambodia, but both countries claim ownership of a surrounding area of 4.6 square kilometres (1. 8 - square - mile).

Thailand said he had hired legal counsel and would fight the case.

The stone structure was the subject of border tensions since he received the status of world heritage of the United Nations in 2008 and 10 people have died in the hostilities between the neighbours it in February.

The Thai-Cambodian border has never been fully delimited, in part because it is littered with landmines left over the years of war in Cambodia.

The current unrest is centered around two other complexes of contested temple 150 kilometres (90 miles) West of Preah Vihear although there was some fighting on the site itself on Tuesday.

Seven Thai soldiers and eight Cambodian soldiers have died since the fighting began on April 22, Bangkok, and said that a Thai civilian was also killed.

Call for talks on the arrest of Uganda

April 30, 2011, 15: 22 GMT update Kizza Besigye is arrived at Nairobi Hospital Friday, religious leaders in Uganda have claimed the talks between the Government and the opposition to end the violence that has escalated in recent weeks.

The Government has banned the market of labour protests against the cost high life and repeatedly arrested opposition politician Kizza Besigye.

Two people were killed when his supporters were demonstrating in the capital Kampala Friday.

Dr Besigye is treated in the Kenya, after having been sprayed pepper spray.

He has still not recovered his sight since police broke through the window of his car with the butt of a gun Thursday and sprayed at short range, the incident made front of the camera.

Political opposition was then delivered to the back of a pickup truck and driven at speed, before being released on bail for medical treatment.

Campaign of walking in the work of April, organized by several opposition parties, on the rise in fuel and food prices was marked by clashes between demonstrators and the police and the arrest of opposition politicians.

Museveni interrupted

Inter-religious Council of Uganda accused the police of using brutal force against demonstrators and the manner of the arrest of Dr Besigye condemned.

They perspective of a dialogue between the opposition and the Government seems very little unlikely for the time being.

The opposition has pledged to continue protests by walking to work and win political mileage by exposing the brutality of the police and the military. The Government of President Yoweri Museveni appears to many to be disconnected from the people who suffer as inflation soars.

Dr Besigye has lost three elections challenged to President Museveni. The two men spoke not from each other for ten years.

For now, the streets of Kampala are silent. President Museveni was speaking at an event in the capital Nairobi Kenya and by coincidence is exactly where Dr Besigye receives medical treatment.

The chances of meeting two to the Kenya are slim to non-existent. The more likelihood of violence in the streets of Uganda in the next few days remains high.

It calls for the Minister of the Interior and the Chief of the police to resign and for a dialogue between the opposition and the Government to immediately start.

Bishop Zac Nirigiye of the inter-religious Council said that unless there was dialogue violence increase.

President Museveni, who was also to be in Nairobi on Saturday, was interrupted by a protester while delivering a speech to a business club.

"Mr President, how can we as Kenyans sitting here and you listen to while you were Ugandan brutalising?" the man shouted, before being taken by Mr. Museveni security details.

The leader (Uganda) said that Dr Besigye could walk to work if he wanted until he informed the police "subscribe to their" where it wants to convey.

"Kampala is a very crowded city," he said. It also describes the rioters Friday as "looters".

Dr Besigye, who was shot in the hand during a similar recent demonstration, lost to Mr. Museveni in an election in February, that he said was rigged.

Before polls, Dr Besigye had called for uprisings Egypt-style fraud.

Police responded by banning public demonstrations.

Deadly day of the Ugandan riots following opposition leader stop (The Christian Science Monitor)

Kampala, Uganda - sitting outside his shop laundry in a quiet suburb, usually the capital of Uganda, Kampala, David Ssentongo points to slow ash locals tires burned in protest and rage.

"People are angry," says Mr. Ssentongo. "They are angry because of the way in which the presidential candidate Dr Kizza Besigye was arrested yesterday." But they are also angry because prices are increasing, because they cannot afford to take the bus to work, because they can not buy milk for their children. ?

Friday, Kampala awakened to a day of rioting. Markets downtown to the suburbs, demonstrators set up roadblocks made of rubble and burning tires and the police and the army fired live ammunition at demonstrators.

As you know Africa? Take our quiz of geography.

In early evening, at least two people had been killed by bullet and 143 were hospitalized, including a Ugandan child 2 years old with bullet wounds, said the Red Cross. The Minister of Internal Affairs has developed the number of order 360.

The main spark for the riots was the brutal arrest of Dr Besigye, s€ ? s main opposition leader. For the past three weeks, Besigye and other opposition leaders attempted to walk to work in protest against the increase in the cost of living. In March, inflation on food increased nearly 30% and fuel at more than 10 per cent.

Police, who have banned all demonstrations, arrested Besigye three times, he trapped for six days and was allegedly shot in the finger with a rubber bullet.

On Thursday, the reaction of the authoritarian Government became even more brutal. After police prevented him from walking, Besigye got in his car and led to Kampala. The first police has shown, stopping the car of the Besigye at a roundabout and refrained from tear gas at crowds of fire growth.

But as it appeared the Besigye protest could be petering out, plainclothes police arrived, shattered the Windows of his vehicle and he sprayed with tear gas before him drag in a police van. When Besigye appeared before the tribunal later this day there, he was unable to see. A doctor who saw him said that it is too early to say if the damage was permanent. Friday evening, Besigye flew to Nairobi to receive medical treatment for injuries, he received the police Thursday.

Analysts say the violence on Friday and the reaction of the Government will only exacerbate the public anger over rising prices and the repression of the opposition.

"The rejection by the way the Government handled Besigye sweeps the Board of Directors," said Frederick Golooba-Mutebi, political analyst at the University of Makerere in Kampala.

In February Besigye lost the President incumbent Yoweri Museveni for the third consecutive time. Besigye immediately rejected the results, calling the election a "sham" and seeking the mass protests.

But nothing happened, and many began to write political obituaries of the Besigye. Now, analysts say, the brutal treatment he received made him relevant again.

"Museveni has now succeeded in stimulating support so Besigye, who had become marginal after the elections," said Mr. Golooba-Mutebi.

With the protests draw discontent over rising fuel prices and perceived government inaction and corruption, the situation remains tense. The Kenya Government recently cut, taxes on fuels to suppress popular discontent, Museveni has so far not acted and dismissed demonstrations as "idiot".

"It is because of what happens to Besigye, due to rising prices and the arrogant reaction of the Government to any person who complains," said Golooba-Mutebi. "The situation is much worse that the Government is admitting."

Standing outside his store of laundry, Ssentongo said that the reaction of the Government of stirring more anger and this turmoil is likely to continue. "Prices are only going higher and growth of anger", said Ssentongo. "This will end quickly."

Taliban declare spring offensive

  the Taliban have claimed a number of deadly attacks on foreign and Afghan troops in recent weeks, the Taliban announced the start of an offensive of spring through the Afghanistan.

In a statement, the group said that the fighting would begin Sunday, targeting Afghan foreign troops and the security forces and officials.

He has warned civilians to stay away from public gatherings, military bases, government buildings and convoys.

During this initial time of the finding of a NATO investigation into a deadly attack at the airport in Kabul on Wednesday suggested the shooter was not linked to the Taliban.

Rio Tinto, says no need to rush the emissions of tax (AFP)

SYDNEY (AFP) - mining giant Rio Tinto weighed in the debate on the proposed tax on carbon emissions of Australia Saturday urging Canberra not step to rush a decision while major polluters such as China and selected United States.

Prime Minister Julia Gillard wants free polluters of July 2012 under a system of fixed prices which can move to a complete model Cap-trade linked to global carbon markets in five years.

But it faces strong opposition from his political rivals and the business community with the powerful coal industry warning the plan will be driving offshore investment and damage the economy powered by the Australia mining.

Rio Tinto has expressed its objections, Saturday, warning Australia not to jump the gun on emissions, when some major polluters were taking similar measures.

"The question is how and when Australia move in light of the disappointment of the Copenhagen Conference (climate change) and in the light of the fact there are very few signs Gorilla big - the United States and China - are really going to move"President of Rio Jan du Plessis""told the Australian newspaper.

The Australia is the world polluter worst per capita, in large part because it relies heavily on coal power.

It also export millions of tons of fuel annually to steel makers and companies Asian power and is home of the world largest coal export port, with deliveries total worth Aus 43 billion ($46 billion) last year.

Gillard proposal would see a fixed levy placed on emissions for the first three to five years before moving to a full cap and trade regime, which would be to see that the Government has established a national limit on pollution and sell permits to companies.

Companies which have exceeded their cap would have to purchase additional licenses to other issuers which had more than what they needed, and the price should be linked to international carbon markets.

The labour party failed twice in an attempt to introduce a scheme, emissions trading stimulate a collapse in the polls which saw former Chief Kevin Rudd ousted by Gillard, and then his assistant and damaged the credibility of party.

Du Plessis said that there is a "clear link" between carbon emissions and climate change and the courage of the Gillard praised for taking a position, but he wondered if it was the right time for a carbon tax.

"If the Australian Government, with the best intentions in the world, will move too quickly and finally simply damaging energy exposed to trade in the business at a cost in Australia as a country while China and America will not move"I don't know who is smart "stated the President of Rio."

He called for Canberra to "give assurances that, while the Government has a passion for dealing with climate change, which I admire, not what to do in a way which damages Australian businesses at a time when the world is not ready to move."

Gillard visited major trading partners of the Australia, a stopover North Asia Tour last week, insisting on the fact that the request insatiable in the area of energy buoy the nation through the transition to a carbon tax.

BHP Billiton, the world largest mining company, last year urged the Australia leads the dance by taxing carbon emissions blamed for global warming, instead of waiting for international concerted action through the Organization of the United Nations.

But the Gillard fragile coalition Government holds power by single-seat and the debate of carbon may be a steep challenge, with opposition condemning its new royalty of pollution as a "great big tax".

Germany has been largely spared similar violence, even if it has been the target of threats on the Web sites of Islamists and responsible security have issued warnings that militants sleeper cells may be present in the country.

Berlin saw its territory as a potential target because it has almost 5,000 members stationed in Afghanistan, the third largest contingent of the international force of 150,000 fight against the insurgency led by the Taliban.

 China pushed back against critical U.S. of the situation of the human rights Friday following discussions on the issue, saying that the Chinese people was "most qualified" to speak on the subject and in defending the detention of the artist Ai Weiwei.

The official U.S. leading the talks, said Thursday that he was "deeply concerned" by a crackdown on dissidents and rights advocates in China, and that the friction to prevent the links of the two powers.

Yet China and the United States have many common interests, dealing with the nuclear ambitions of North Korea to maintain the global economic recovery, and spat on the subject of rights appears unlikely to spin out of control.

Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China, in a statement that is restricted by the official news agency Xinhua said that both parties have agreed that "the talks were frank, open and constructive."

"The Chinese side said the Chinese people is most qualified to speak on the situation of China's human rights, and the Chinese judicial organs would continue handle cases according to law," Xinhua quoted the statement as saying.

"The Chinese side said that only thanks to a spirit of equality and mutual respect can the dialogue on human rights advance positive."

China and the State of the United States had a "Exchange in-depth views on the issues on the bilateral cooperation, in United Nations rights field, the rule of law human labour, freedom of expression", said Xinhua.

China has informed the US side "measures and achievements in improving and safeguarding of livelihoods of the people, to advance the construction of democracy and the legal system and democratic development local of the country."

The report makes no mention of specific cases that the United States said that he had raised, including those detained artist AI and missing Teng Biao rights lawyers.

SUSPECTED OF ECONOMIC CRIMES

However, the State China Daily published a letter from the Chinese Embassy in London saying IA case had nothing to do with freedom of expression.

"The case of Ai Weiwei, essence, is not a question of human rights, or is it freedom of expression." No one is above the law. As in other countries, acts of violations of the law will be treated by the law, "the Embassy wrote in the letter." printed in the English-language newspaper

The Chinese authorities gave few details of what exactly IA is reviewed for.

Earlier this month, a Hong Kong newspaper under the control of Beijing said police had evidence that he avoided tax.

"China did not need speakers, who cling to the cold war mentality and follow two weights two measurements in their sermons,", said the letter, written in response to an article in a British newspaper, written by author Salman Rushdie call on China to set have free.

Chinese leaders have become more relentless pressure from the West on human rights issues and said that these complaints are equivalent to an illegitimate interference.

Alarm in Beijing on the dissent increased after overseas Chinese sites in February spread calls for demonstrations across China inspired by the "revolution of Jasmine" anti-authoritarian uprisings throughout the Arab world.

China has imprisoned, detained or placed in dozens of secret informal care of dissidents, the lawyers of human rights and the protesters feared will challenge Communist party rule.

"Operations will focus on attacks against the military centres, places of gatherings, air bases, ammunition and logistical military convoys of foreign invaders from all regions of the country," the Taliban said in the statement.

Senior military officials said Friday recent intelligence reports indicated that the attacks planned by the Taliban, the Haqqani network linked to al-Qaeda and other insurgents, backed include suicide attacks.

Two senior commanders coalition said that they have planned that increased violence campaign would last about a week.

Washington and commanders of the-led NATO International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) have trumpeted success against a growing insurgency since 30,000 additional U.S. troops were sent to Afghanistan last year.

Violence through the Afghanistan reached record levels in 2010, with civilian and military losses worse since U.S. backed by Afghan forces ousted the Taliban late 2001 Government.

The Pentagon said in a semi-annual report on Friday an overall increase of violence was due in part to a targeting increased insurgent safe havens and the unusually mild winter weather.

Saleh of the Yemen because the transition sign deal (Reuters)

 the President of the Yemen was to sign an agreement Saturday to leave power within a month in exchange for an agreement rejected by the protesters calling for his immediate eviction and the pursuit of immunity.

Ali Abdullah Saleh, who has held the poor Arabian Peninsula State for 33 years, in principle, accepted the agreement negotiated by the six-State Member Cooperation Council for the Gulf (GCC).

His departure would make Saleh the third leader to be ousted by a wave of popular uprisings against autocratic Arab who brought down the Presidents of the Tunisia and the Egypt.

Saleh, a skillful political operator regarded as a key U.S. ally against wing based at the al-Qaeda Yemen, forced mediators to split the signing ceremony two days by objecting to the presence of the Qatari officials.

Prime Minister of the State of the Qatar was the first to publicly declare the agreement of the Gulf seek resignation of the Saleh and Al Jazeera satellite channel has been criticized by Saleh for incitement to revolt in the Arab world, which was swept by pro-democracy demonstrations.

Thus while the Yemeni leader signs pact Sanaa, Vice President of his party will travel to the Saudi capital Riyadh Sunday official ceremony of signing by the opposition.

WAVE OF PROTEST

Tensions in the Yemen were defined above since gunmen shot dead 12 demonstrators in Sanaa Wednesday and the opposition warned that the violence could derail the transaction.

Tens of thousands of protests descended into the streets to the Friday Yemen, promising to remain there until Saleh actually smoking.

They also called for him to be brought to trial for corruption and death of 142 demonstrators estimated killed since the beginning of the events three months ago.

The agreement of the CCG offers Saleh and his entourage, including parents who run branches of the security forces, the immunity from prosecution.

Protests anti-Saleh in Sanaa Friday, ended by a funeral March for 12 demonstrators shot dead two days earlier, thousands from their hand to hand wooden coffins to their graves.

"People want the trial of the murderer," some anti-Saleh demonstrators shouted.

Analysts say the window of 30 days for Saleh to resign gives enough time for the disaffected forces of the old guard to incorporate the disorder to the Yemen, where half of the population possesses a firearm and al-Qaeda has taken foot in its mountainous regions.

The United States and the neighbouring oil giant Saudi Arabia want the deadlock Yemen resolved to avoid the chaos that could allow wing Yemen of al-Qaeda operate more freely.

Should the deal go by, Saleh appoints a Prime Minister of the opposition at the head of a transitional Government, which would be put in place for presidential elections in 60 days after he resigned.

Many demonstrators, already wary for the coalition of the opposition due to its presence in the Government in the past, called for them to return to the transaction.

"They lose Saleh does not adhere to the Convention.". "If it cannot find a reason to overturn it will trigger a war," said manifesting Sanaa Abdulsalam Mahmoud.

Gaddafi shelled rebels held Libyan port of Misrata and rebels sought to also take the airport, while the sides fought a seesaw battle for the control of a passage to the Tunisian border.

Powerful explosions rocked Tripoli a few minutes from the other end Thursday as NATO planes flew over the city, and witnesses said rising smoke from the district of Ain Zara, in the Southeast a frequent target of NATO air strikes.

The Italy military participated in his first raid on the Libya, triggering an outcry in the first Minister Silvio Berlusconi coalition partner, the Northern League.

A pair of tornado jets took off from Sicily equipped with "selected targets"-strike precision guided munitions, a Defence Ministry official said without revealing details.

Rebels in Misrata earlier saying they had confidence victory was "very close" in the strategic city, but they were still under a fire murderer Thursday evening.

A medical source told AFP that fire rocket and mortar was striking the city regularly in the evening and that by autour 8: 00 am (1800 GMT), at least nine people were killed and another 30 woundedalmost all civilians.

The previous night, Khalid Azwai, head of the local transition Committee, said "our freedom fighters were able to defeat the soldiers of (leader Libyan Moamer) Kadhafi" by forcing them to Misrata.

"They managed to force them to leave, but not very far away." This is why Gaddafi strives to bombard the port, "he says.

The rebel fighters, supported by the NATO strike air, said earlier that they had led the troops of Gaddafi out of reach of the missile from the port, a conduit of support for the city of half a million people under siege for more than seven weeks.

"Gaddafi large forces" were concentrated in the airport a few kilometres west of the city, the rebel army Chief Ibrahim Bet-Almal said, noting "cooperation between (his) forces and NATO."

"We are trying to clean this area" on the outskirts of the city, which was rocked by continuous explosions Wednesday evening as missiles and rockets fell randomly, he said.

Libyan side of the border, the rival camps have exchanged artillery fire in early evening, causing panic among civilians, a witness told AFP.

Several ambulances of Tunisia crossed the Libya to evacuate the injured, said witnesses.

Earlier, witnesses said rebels had fled to Tunisia, pursued by their enemies for a distance of about a kilometer (one-half mile).

"The situation is very confusing and it fought on both sides of the border," the military source said, adding that Tunisian troops were "involved" without developing.

A witness said Tunisian troops arrested fighters on both sides of the conflict, but which could not be confirmed.

A Tunisian police source, said 5150 people had crossed from Libya in Tunisia to Dehiba within 48 hours as fierce fighting raged.

During this time, said rebel forces Gaddafi had taken the Al-Kufra, 600 kilometres (375 miles) of Eastern stronghold of rebels in Benghazi, in South-East of the country bordering Chad, Sudan, and the Egypt.

There was "no loss" as rebels withdraw after "put a slight resistance," the source said, adding that Kadhafi forces were "now in the" control of three-quarters of the city.

In Brussels, rebel military Chief Abdulfatah Yunis, formerly of the Gaddafi Interior Minister, has urged the West to deliver heavy weapons and warned that strong man could use mustard gas on them to stay in power.

"Kadhafi is desperate now." Unfortunately, it has about 25 percent of its chemical weapons, which perhaps it will use, since it is in a desperate situation, "Younis told a press conference."

In Paris, the French jets military said were dropping inert bombs filled with concrete instead of explosives to destroy the tanks of Gaddafi without killing civilians.

Spokesman Thierry Burkhard denied rumours that the use of 300 kg (660 lb) training devices was motivated by a shortage of real bombs, adding that the first such strike crushed an armoured vehicle Tuesday.

"The objective of this munition... is to use the effect of the impact while limiting the risk of collateral damage," said Burkhard. "" "". This is a very precise strike. It is is not, or very little, shrapnel thrown. ?

During this time, in what was a volte-face, Rome said Monday it would participate in air strikes with a coalition led by NATO against the regime of Kadhafi.

The Government stated exclude operations on the ground, was intensifying its contribution after that of fighting within claimed many civilian victims Misrata.

"We're going worse," said heavyweight Northern League Minister to legislative simplification, Roberto Calderoli and right.

The Berlusconi coalition partner strongly objected to air on the Libya bombing for fear that they will cause a mass migration towards the Italy, which is already swamped by 30,000 refugees North Africa, fleeing the disorders it since January.

The decision of the Government is "an error will occur in a wave of immigrants sent by Gaddafi or fuyant war," the Interior Minister and senior member of the League of Northern Roberto Maroni said the Libero daily.

Having secured the port of Misrata, rebel has been strengthened by the arrival of a ship carrying humanitarian supplies, including food and medicines, and at least a loaded boat arm, an AFP journalist.

"Rate of voting the election day will tell if it's a Tory minority or majority government," Ipsos Reid, said in his commentary on the survey, conducted for Global National television and news Postmedia.

EKOS pollster Frank Graves put the conservatives to 34.5% and said that with only a point or two CBC Television more, they could "back in a majority government" by splitting the centre-left vote.

EKOS had the NDP, which took place in a distant third at the start of the campaign, to 29.7% and the Liberals to the lowest of 20.0%.

Ipsos Reid placed liberals even lower, to 18 per cent, with the conservatives to 38% and the NDP to 33%.

Nanos Research developed 36.4% support for the Conservatives, NDP 31.2% and the Liberals to 22.0%. He was the NDP, who had been the smallest of the four parties in the House of Commons, continuing to trend higher in Ontario and British Columbia Colombia.

Thai soldier dies as the ceasefire with Cambodia violated (Reuters)

the Thai and Cambodian troops exchanged fire as early as Friday, breaking a ceasefire agreed the day before to end a week of border clashes that killed 16 people and injured scores in conflict of deadliest border of Asia over the years.

Each side blames the other for shooting first, but both said they still wanted to give the truce a chance.

Brief clashes with weapons fire and hand grenades small broke out two times per night, Thai regional commander of the army that thawatchai Samutsakorn said. The clash killed a Thai soldier and four others wounded. It was not step clear if there were losses on the Cambodian side.

The ceasefire was supposed to put an end to a week of sporadic and petit-rocket artillery inflamed nationalist passions in both countries, threatened to overshadow the elections in Thailand and reinforced doubts about the ambitions of Southeast Asia to form a community of style of the European Union by 2015.

The guns are silent since 3 o'clock in the morning but tension remained high with the troops still stationed nearby on two ancient temples in the Dongrak mountains poorly demarcated.

Thailand blamed the latest skirmish on a misunderstanding on the ground in Cambodia.

"On the side of Thailand, we understand the ceasefire but Cambodia agreement may have problems," Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban told reporters. "But give us a chance and examine the situation positively - their communications can have problems and the chain of command may be ineffective."

Commander of Cambodia, Colonel Suos Sothea, denied the Cambodian troops had fired everything first.

The Cambodian Ministry of Defense said in a statement that it was "regrettable" that Thai troops had attacked and said that the Cambodian army had always respected the ceasefire agreement.

Thursday, the two parties have agreed to keep troops in the region, but regular meetings between commanders on the ground and leave their territorial disputes long reach a joint boundary commission.

They also agreed to open border control points near two Hindu temples in the 12th century challenged at the heart of the fighting, although it was not clear, when the villagers would be allowed back permanently to their distance, ravaged cities.

Thailand insists that the ruins stone-walled reside in the province of Surin as a map of 1947. In Cambodia, says that they are in the province of Oddar Meanchey. Sovereignty over three temples - Ta Moan and Ta Krabey border over Preah Vihear - and the jungle they been challenged since the retreat of the French in Cambodia in the 1950s.

Analysts have expressed their scepticism conflict - which erupted in February near Preah Vihear, the death of 11 persons - is really on sovereignty and say that it seems politically driven on both sides. Some say hawkish generals in Thailand is in collusion with the nationalists to foment a crisis that could force the cancellation of the elections, scheduled in July and to marginalize the powerful opposition to preserve the stranglehold of the royalist establishment power.

In the village of border Hua Ang, dozens of civilians returned with mistrust to check their houses and agricultural land.

"This ceasefire seems a little suspicious." Look at what happened last night, "said Pailin Naralit, a 49-year old village Chief Deputy that he walked through his damaged rubber plantation."

"I am to check on my house and dating safe soon." I do not think that it is safe here yet. ?

"I expect a political signal to the sanctions, but perhaps not a decision yet", said the diplomat.

EU against the Syria other measures could include the freezing of financial aid, which amounts to 43 million euros ($64 million) a year.

Blast rocks Egypt gas Terminal near Israel

An explosion shook a terminal near border with Egypt with Israel of natural gas, on Wednesday, sending flames shooting into the air in the early hours of the morning and forcing the closure of the country's export pipeline.

It was the second attack just last month on al-Sabil terminal near the town of El-Arish just 30 miles (50 km) of Israel. On 27 March, armed men have planted explosives in the terminal, which did not detonate.

Gas flow rate of the main terminal at Port said on the Mediterranean coast has been closed to smother the 65 feet (20 meters) flames, cutting exports of gas for Israel, the Jordan and the Syria. The fire continued to rage well past dawn.

"Those who carried out the explosion have harmed people more than any other Sinai," said Abdul-Wahab Mabrouk, the Governor of the Northern Sinai, by inspecting the site. He said the explosion also damaged the local power plant and the leakage of gas people forced to evacuate their homes.

He complained that the security situation was still weak and there is not enough police.

Maya Etzioni, a spokesman for the Ministry of infrastructure of Israel, confirmed that the gas supply was cut early Wednesday.

Tribes in the region have attacked the pipeline in the past, including the February 5, when a different section was destroyed, export to Israel and the Jordan a month. They also attempt to sabotage the pipeline in July 2010.

Security forces often clash with Bedouins in the Sinai Peninsula, who complain of being neglected and oppressed by the central Government. Tribes are trying to draw attention to their grievances by blocking roads, burning tires, or attacking the infrastructure.

On Tuesday, the news agency reported that the main road in the area was temporarily closed by protest against the families of the detainees until the army reopened it. Attacks by militants on resorts in the South of the Sinai between 2004 and 2006, thousands of Bedouins were arrested, increasing the local resentment of the central Government.

Egyptian forces in the Sinai are regulated by the peace treaty of 1979 with Israel which used to prohibit military forces, in the peninsula, leaving security in the hands of lightly armed police and border guards.

After the popular uprising in January and February, which forced the resignation of President Hosni Mubarak and disintegration of the police force, security has deteriorated further in the Sinai until the army was brought - with Israeli acquiescence.

Israeli infrastructure Minister Uzi Landau told Israeli Army Radio that Israel had allowed the Egyptians to lead military forces over Sinai to protect the pipeline beyond the number of troops authorized by the peace agreement.

"There are a lot of importance to the protection of the peace agreement with the Egypt, and the contract of gas with Israel is perhaps the most important agreement between us and the Egyptians, who founded the peace on a written document"but also on important economic interests "he says.

Asked if Israel has other alternatives if the natural gas supply is not resumed, said, "we are obviously preparing for these things." Israeli gas field known as "tamar" will begin to produce gas in 2013, he said, and will be able to provide gas to Israel needs. In the meantime Israel can produce electricity with coal, diesel and natural gas, it produces already, he said.

Quiet of London on the eve of William and Kate his marriage (The Christian Science Monitor)

London - with repeats of royal marriage family, less than 24 hours before the Prince William and Catherine Middleton exchange greetings in "the wedding of the century".

But the atmosphere in London is really calm and quiet in advance of the Friday ceremony 11 hours. Londoners have a keen interest in the event and the story of love behind it; new surveys of 70% of the British support the monarchy and that William is now the most popular member of the Royal family. (Ms. Middleton is followed in the third, behind the Queen).

But there is no marriage tidal wave - mania, some Cree groupies and little acute buzz down King Street or Piccadilly Circus.

A day before that 2 billion people are expected to look at "Kate and wills" intimate greeting and balcony Kiss at Buckingham Palace (if time permits) it is a pleasant interest but not mounted in the big day. It is a royal and she is a woman of middle class with a diploma of art history are a fully filled story line.

RELATED: Prince William and Kate Middleton royal wedding: monarchies still important?

Most permanent residents outside the Red Lion and pubs of three crowns off the coast of St. James square, after reading about the relationship of Middleton and William since nearly a decade, plan to leave to the extent € weekend and printed ? t look at marriage.

"I'm going to the South of the France," explains Stephen Gantry, a lawyer. "I'm going to Botswana," says his law partner Geoff. "Really!" I'm going, too, "chortles Judith Edwards, when the issue turns on whether it is just the men who cannot be that in marriage."

"Excitement built last week, but that is deflated....". What I note is how quiet is in London, "says Jasmine Birtles, a commentator of London and a Web site owner who spoke from the underground to Heathrow, where it was scheduled to depart." "It seems now that we are in a mass exodus, or people planning a lie down in the garden on the wedding day."

Pub talk, when he focuses on marriage, a tradition dating to the 11th century, tends to be more whether it will rain Friday, Middleton will focus his hair upwards or downwards at the ceremony and when the wedding ever discussed but still invisible dress and its designer will appear.

A few scandals, little tabloid fodder

Middleton and William are in fact y giving the tabloids so scarce any scandal or bad behaviour of regurgitate. And there is little chance that this change. They plan to resume their life as a Royal Air Force helicopter pilot and women likely to be work and spend time with his family.

The bride and groom "seem to love each other and look happy together," explains f. Philippou, owner of a store of barber in Mayfair for more than 50 years. "It is already an improvement."

This week the main statements passionate the pair came to the historian David Starkey, who said the couple had little "passion" were a "pragmatic game... remarkably equal." The couple reflects a post-royal sensitivity and elite in Britain that Mr. Starkey assigns to the colossal failure of the marriage of Prince Charles and Diana.

"The great legacy of Diana is that our expectations of the Royal family have changed," explains Richard Starkey. "As a result, Kate had a much easier time." We expect no longer perfection of our royals. If they have changed, we have too much as a society we grew up. ?

The real issues here are widespread and painful budget cuts. If anything, the two directors get accessories to try to put one more "real" and "human scale" marriage appropriate for the times. Middleton is already affecting a glut of small green trees imported into stony Westminster Abbey, a set of vows which should not to include the word "obey" and for dragging dressed with his sister Pippa. William has played a game of football with friends in a downtown Park.

Major London words use in describing the pair are "good", "decent" and "normal". The Daily Mail today extinguish a first page photo of Middleton on a race as the queen of calm - which seems to fit the Zeitgeist wedding.

No Blair or Brown?

Same tabloid controversy here are small scale: today the invitation of marriage to the Syrian Ambassador was withdrawn after a massacre would take place in this country as his representative served on Westminster for marriage.

Most indicated here, this is the criticism of the Royal family, which is supposed to be scrupulously non-partisan, for not inviting former Prime Minister Tony Blair and Gordon Brown. Previous Conservative leaders Margaret Thatcher and John Major are invited, as are the guests which include the King of Swaziland.

The Times of London today indicated on what he calls "blunder" to invite only step Labor Prime Ministers Blair and Brown, "two men who have served the grandmother of William... for a total of 13 years," in a list of guests more of 2,000 people.

"The royals can allow to appear to favor one political party over another," said the Times. After the tragic death of Princess Diana, she added, "the royals have had the chance to have Blair's place to give effect to the national mood in a way that they could not." It should not too much trouble to him have been offered a seat at Westminster Abbey. ?

More Wal-Mart stock guns

Wal-Mart stopped selling guns to about 500 of its 3,600 stores in 2006 Wal-Mart told us, it will soon bring the sale of weapons, firearms, including rifles and shotguns, more than 500 of its U.S. stores.

Giant retail ceased to sell weapons to fire hundreds of its 3 600 stores us in 2006, citing slumping consumer demand.

But a spokesman said guns would be tantamount to the shelves in the "framework of the overall thrust to bring 8000 products."

Thursday news comes two months after Wal-Mart announced a decrease in seventh straight quarterly sales us.

Hunting and fishing

Wal-Mart goes stocking more goods in a wide range of its stores in an effort to "offer customers the widest assortment of our possible products", spokesman Lorenzo Lopez told the BBC.

He added that firearms should be part of this thrust, which, he said, it had been planned for the month.

"A few years back... we were trying to streamline the assortment," Mr. Lopez said, referring to the decision in 2006 to stop firearms storage in many Wal-Mart stores.

Wal-Mart currently sells rifles, hunting rifles and ammunition to about 1,000 of its locations in the United States.

Which will increase to about half its 3,600 us stores under the changes described Thursday.

Mr. Lopez said that Wal-Mart is concentrated on the regions of the country where the hunting and fishing are popular.

Canon followed by the Federal Government sales grew more than 12% in the first quarter of 2011. However, growth has mainly been seen in handguns, Wal-Mart does not.
