Random ghost stories 1

A ghost story form a girl in Poland.

One day when I was 6 years old, we had guests staying with us and had to sleep with my dad in one bed. At night, something scared me. I woke up and saw "black lady": one meter tall more or less, dresses all in black. She was leaning over my sleeping dad. At one point, pulled her long arm from under the robes and wanted him to do harm. Without thinking I hit her with full force. Phantom disappeared an  my dad woke up. After that I do not remember anything. In the morning there was a big bruise on my father's face. Everyone was amazed that such a little girl could have hit someone so much in his sleep. I remeber that a freind of my parents gave me a strange look. Until now, I often dream about this ghost, which does harm to the members of my family.

Julian Assange

Julian Assange studied physics and mathematics, and then devoted himself primarily to Wikileaks. On November 30, 2010 Assange was arrested in the UK at the request of Interpol issued by Sweden. The allegations were of sexual coercion and rape. In Sweden, the police reported two women who were to meet with Assangem August 14 in Stockholm and six days later accused him of sexual offenses. On December 7, 2010 Assange reported to the police in the UK. The prosecutor and the court refused to issue bond and detained him in custody. Julian Assange denies the accusations, and part of the public believes the government's prosecution is part of a campaign, driven mainly by the United States, aimed to discredit the founder of Wikileaks. Some politicians from the conservative areas in the United States suggested that Assange should be charged with treason. Former Political Adviser to the conservative Prime Minister of Canada, Tom Flannagan in Canadian television has even said that he should be assassinated. This stetement caused public protests and outrage and Flannagan withdrew from it claiming that it was inappropriate joke.

Assange received Amnesty International Media Award (New Media) in 2009 for the discovery of mysterious killings and disappearances, in which the Government of Kenya was involved.
