...alone. Over the next few days, I heard a dozen or so complaints from people that Tagged had spammed their entire contact list.

The cameras in the stadium, wielded by the North Korean authorities, didn't reveal whether the nation's Dear Leader and known football enthusiast, Kim Jong Il, was in attendance. Advertising billboards arrayed around the pitch for the benefit of the television audience...
...officials from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) visited the doctors at a detention center, according to Monica Zanarelli, the ICRC's deputy head of operations for South Asia during a regular visit to detention sites. ICRC officials in Colombo, the capital, said the organization had access to the doctors but could not confirm whether officials had made any more visits since May 20. Samarasinghe said the three were now being detained at the CID in Colombo...
