London, Nov 15 : Troubled English singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse, 25, was caught stumbling through builders’ rubble while on a late night run.

She was seen clambering over the road works, and walking in a very erratic fashion through the dark streets, wearing only a stringy vest, a thin top and skimpy denim shorts.

The Back to Black singer was also spotted getting a bottle of vodka and signing an autograph for a fan, though she scribbled Blake Fielder-Civil’s name instead of her own.

A Second World War airman who took part in the raids that led to the eventual sincking of the German warship Bismarck has died at the age of 93.

Les Sayer flew in a 120mph part-fabric Swordfish biplane that crucially damaged the 50,000-ton vessel, the most feared in the world with eight 15-inch guns.

According to The Telegraph, Sayer was a telegraphist air gunner on the plane flown by Lieutenant Percy Gick when they found the warship in the North Atlantic in May 1941 after Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill had ordered: “Sink the Bismarck”.

London, Nov 15 : People who dismissed fake Christmas trees as ‘naff’ will now have to eat up their own words, for a department store in London is now selling "the most realistic fake tree ever" and making quite a fortune out of it.

Design experts have claimed that fake Christmas trees, for decades considered the height of naffness, have now come of age.

John Lewis, one of the country''s biggest sellers of faux trees, many people will be fooled by the 6-foot, Woodland Tree, sold at his store.

The tree is complete with spindly branches, needles on the trunk, and little pinecones on the branches.

London, November 15 : A digital picture carries pixel-based fingerprint that can reveal which camera model was used to click it, say researchers.

Nasir Memon of the Polytechnic University in Brooklyn, New York, has revealed that every digital camera has an in-built "demosaicing" software that translates each pixel into a usable colour and brightness signal.

London, Nov 15 : Reports indicate that the Mars rover Spirit is still working and is slowly recharging its batteries after a weekend dust storm that caused the craft’s power levels to drop to an all-time low.

The storm that hit Spirit came less than two weeks after similar weather in the far north sent NASA’s Phoenix Lander to an early grave.

Rover team members were awaiting a sign this week that the craft had survived the storm, which blanketed Spirit’s solar panels with dust.

London, Nov 15 : A new research has determined that the rising levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) will make oceans more hostile to life, with the volume of oxygen-depleted ‘dead zones’ in tropical oceans set to expand rapidly by as much as 50 percent before the end of the century.

According to a report in Nature News, Andreas Oschlies of the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences in Kiel, Germany, led the research.

At depths between several tens and hundreds of meters, large parts of the tropical oceans are poorly supplied with dissolved oxygen, and are therefore hostile to most marine life.
