Man Loses Top of His Head in Brain Operation

Reuters has this story today:

"The man sought compensation of at least 20,000 euros on the grounds that the prosthesis caused him headaches, affected his balance and made him unduly sensitivity to the weather."
But he didn't get that.
"Compensation of 3,000 euros was “appropriate and sufficient,” the court ruled. “The experts consulted by the court concluded the new skull roof was better than the original”."

UK School Uniforms to Get GPS Tracking

As if growing up in England wasn't bad enough already, with ID cards, tracking devices and hovering surveillance robots, super-square clothing company Trutex is set to embed GPS tracking into school uniforms.

"Trutex sponsored an online survey of parents and children to gauge the response to this spy-tech clothing. Unsurprisingly, parents were in favor – 59% of them said they would be interested in using satellite tracking to stalk their offspring, and almost half of the still-naive under 12s said they would wear them. Teenagers weren't so sure, but then teenagers won't do anything they're told.

Schools, too, are interested, ostensibly to reduce truancy, but more likely to catch the kids bumming a quick fag behind the bike sheds. [Note: This is British English for "borrow a cigarette"]"
