Kathmandu: After the king, it is now the turn of his cows to face removal from Nepal's royal palace, two days after it was turned into a museum, a government official said on Tuesday.Gyanendra, the last king of Nepal, left the main palace last week after a special Assembly voted in May to abolish the 239-year-old monarchy and turn the Himalayan nation into a republic.But Gyanendra's 60 cows still graze in the sprawling grounds of the Narayanhiti Palace in the heart of Kathmandu.He used the cows for fresh milk but authorities say the animals, considered holy by Hindus, must also leave."We can't keep them there and no decision has yet been taken about what to do with them," said Govinda Prasad Kusum, a senior bureaucrat in charge of preparing an inventory of palace contents."Maybe the livestock department under the ministry of agriculture should use these cows for research purposes," he said.Nepal, a mostly Hindu nation, forbids slaughtering cows.Gyanendra is now living as a commoner in one of his former hunting lodges outside Kathmandu.On Sunday, the government inaugurated a museum inside the pink pagoda-roofed palace where Gyanendra's diamond-studded crown, ceremonial sceptre, throne and other items will be displayed....[Technology] Cell phone & brain tumour: Time to hit panic button?
Mobile users recorded a 240 per cent increased risk of developing brain cancer as opposed to non-users.In 2002, a major study conducted by researchers in Finland found that exposing brain cells to one hour of mobile phone radiation triggers a response which normally only occurs when cells are damaged.And more recently, studies conducted by Jawaharlal Nehru University have also tended to agree that intensive cell phone use, especially by young people, can lead to cancer.Finally the latest study by Dr Vini Khurana, an Australian researcher, reveals that using cellphones for more than 10 years can double the risk of brain cancer.But these findings fly in the face of others, which came to the opposite conclusion.A study conducted by four British Universities in 2006 concluded that there was no cause-and-effect relation between the cell phone use and brain tumours....[World] Sweden allows police to tap phones without permission
