The programme called "Jjak", which means partner, features seven men and five women contestants who compete for dates in a guesthouse, known as "Lovetown", which is fitted with cameras in all rooms except the bathroom.

South Korean newspapers say the show has a reputation for creating emotional tension and that contestants are required to eat meals alone when rejected by their dates.
That's sad, but being over-pressurised obsessive Korea, somehow it doesn't surprise me.

A top prosecutor of sexual assault cases in the US Army has been accused of groping a female lawyer colleague, military officials say.

Lt Col Joseph Morse has been suspended amid allegations he targeted the woman at a 2011 sexual assault legal conference in Virginia.

On Wednesday, the state's Supreme Judicial Court found the existing Peeping Tom law did not apply to "photographing (or videotaping or electronically surveilling) persons who are fully clothed and, in particular, does not reach the type of upskirting that the defendant is charged with".

Hopefully the politicians will act quickly and pass an updated law to include modern day technology.

yes it is in the works

Massachusetts lawmakers have approved a bill targeting those who take photographs of "the sexual or other intimate parts" of people in public.

I would have thought this would have been dealt with a long time ago

Hundreds of trainee teachers wrongly passed literacy and numeracy tests because of a series of marking errors.

More than 700 candidates were incorrectly awarded marks which meant that they passed papers they should have failed in the last academic year


what is truly hilarious is that these people will go on to teach, having failed literacy and numeracy tests

I think the "hilarious" part is that the test that is meant to check literacy/numeracy is itself incorrect. That's somehow a greater incompetence than that of those talking the test.

In the summer of 2006, Hutchinson thought he could save his flagging relationship by getting his girlfriend pregnant. He surreptitiously poked holes in her condoms.

poked holes?

I wonder what he used?

a needle maybe?

this kinda a gives a new meaning to the word 'prick'

A man has been spared jail for keeping his mother's dead body in a freezer so he could claim her benefits.

even more idiotic was that he was spared jail
