Oink founder: We're just like Google (telegraph.co.uk)
Speaking after his arrest, Alan Ellis, 24, claimed Oink was no more illegal than search engine sites such as Google which could also direct users to illegal music downloads. Mr Ellis declined to comment on whether users had made financial “donations” to the site. Mr Ellis was contracted to work as an IT consultant for Virgin Media’s contact centre in nearby Stockton-on-Tees, but was dismissed on the day of his arrest.

The fact it has shows how determined this coroner is to shine an at times unforgiving light on some of the conspiracy theories surrounding the princess's death. The reference to what someone was wearing emerged during the testimony of Jacques Morel. It was a surreal moment. "So you don't want to talk about the man whose foot I stepped on?" asked this eyewitness via a video link in Paris. "Not really," replied the somewhat weary barrister. "It's very important," persisted Mr Morel. "Go on then," came the answer.
Spurs target Ramos quits Sevilla edition (cnn.com)
Ramos was infamously interviewed by Tottenham officials at the Alfonso XIII hotel in Sevilla back in August, undermining Jol's position after a sorry start to the season which has left a team tipped for a top four Champions League spot now languishing third bottom. Ramos had an unblemished record at Sevilla after consecutive UEFA Cup victories -- they beat Tottenham in the quarterfinals on the way to glory last season -- and a place in the Champions League.
