With the United States not releasing any findings of its investigation almost two weeks after the deadly U.S. airstrike on a Afghan hospital, the international medical aid agency Doctors Without Borders had launched a global petition to urge the White House to consent to an independent investigation.

    *Last year's mug* Royal wedding souvenir mug printed with picture of Prince Harry instead of Prince William and released before the wedding
    Royal wedding souvenir mug with wrong picture - 16 Mar 2011
    FULL WORDS LINK: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/frtc

    There may have been some bad taste Royal souvenirs before but a mug celebrating the first anniversary of last year's royal wedding makes one glaring error - it features the wrong brother.

    The hilariously incorrect memento depicts portraits of mismatched royals Prince Harry and the Duchess of Cambridge on English fine bone china.

    On the reverse of the mug, produced by online company Guandong Enterprises, is the hopeful message: "The body of a man, the beauty of a woman, may they produce children".

    The GBP 10.99 mug is being sold from a gaudy website (www.guandongenterprisesltd.com) but despite the Chinese-sounding company name and the seemingly broken English description of their product, there are suspicions that the incorrect souvenir may not be all it seems.

    The website shows the firm's registered office is in North Finchley, London. The firm also "accidentally" made the same mistake prior to the wedding last year.

    Cars destroyed after battery jump-start mistake
    Not Such A Bright Spark: Battery Jump-Start Goes Wrong
    These motorists proved they aren't the brightest sparks - by destroying their cars after crossing jump-start wires.

    The motoring mishap resulted in damage that meant both cars were right-offs.

    The incident in Columbia, South Carolina, saw silver Jeep owner Andrew Jernigan, 21, connect jump-leads to 21-year-old friend Delaney Mills' Red Volkswagen.

    Their pal Marc Coty saw the whole thing.

    He explains: "Delaney's Volkswagen stalled on the street, so Andrew pulled his Jeep up to her car to jumpstart it.

    "While attaching the jump cables to the batteries of the cars, they accidentally crossed the wires, attaching the positive cable to the negative terminal on the battery and vice versa.

    "After Andrew started his car up, the rubber melted off of the jump cables, making it impossible to remove them from the batteries of the cars. The battery of Andrew's jeep began to smoke.

    "While calling 911 to report the case to the fire department, the battery caught flame. The fire began to spread very quickly across the entire engine of Andrew's car.

    "One of our friends, Dylan Dickerson, tried to beat the fire out with a placemat with no success. We were afraid to throw water on the car, as we thought this would not be the best idea with an electrical fire.

    "Within the 15 minutes that it took the firefighters to get to the scene, the flames had engulfed about 3/4 of Andrew's entire car and the flames reached probably 10 feet in height.

    "We were afraid the fire would reach the gas tank, causing the car to explode. Andrew's car was almost completely melted and destroyed and Delaney's car was also damaged to the point of being considered totalled. The firefighters were able to put out the fire within a few minutes ...

    "One of our friends, Dylan Dickerson, tried to beat the fire out with a placemat with no success. We were afraid to throw water on the car, as we thought this would not be the best idea with an electrical fire.

    "Within the 15 minutes that it took the firefighters to get to the scene, the flames had engulfed about 3/4 of Andrew's entire car and the flames reached probably 10 feet in height.

    Cars destroyed after battery jump-start mistake
    Not Such A Bright Spark: Battery Jump-Start Goes Wrong
    These motorists proved they aren't the brightest sparks - by destroying their cars after crossing jump-start wires.

    The motoring mishap resulted in damage that meant both cars were right-offs.

    The incident in Columbia, South Carolina, saw silver Jeep owner Andrew Jernigan, 21, connect jump-leads to 21-year-old friend Delaney Mills' Red Volkswagen.

    Their pal Marc Coty saw the whole thing.

    He explains: "Delaney's Volkswagen stalled on the street, so Andrew pulled his Jeep up to her car to jumpstart it.

    "While attaching the jump cables to the batteries of the cars, they accidentally crossed the wires, attaching the positive cable to the negative terminal on the battery and vice versa.

    "After Andrew started his car up, the rubber melted off of the jump cables, making it impossible to remove them from the batteries of the cars. The battery of Andrew's jeep began to smoke.

    CNN correspondant Christine Ananpour listens to Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad at a news conference in Tehran, Iran, Saturday, Jan. 14, 2006. The news conference by Ahmadinejad comes after efforts by European countries on Friday to build international support for bringing Iran before the UN Security Council, over its nuclear program.

    On Monday, Jan. 16, 2006, CNN was banned from working in Iran because of a mistranslation of the president's comments, the culture ministry says. CNN had violated "professional ethics," the Iran news agency quoted the ministry as saying. CNN issued a correction after it translated the president as saying Iran had a right to use nuclear "weapons" rather than nuclear "technology." CNN does not have a bureau in Tehran but gets permits to cover assignments. Its chief international correspondent, Christiane Amanpour, is currently in the country. (FOTO: DUKAS/WORLDPICTURENEWS)
