When a schoolboy crush goes too far

Article Abstract:

The Birmingham branch of the National Association of Schoolmasters/ Union of Women Teachers conducted research in 1987 which found that over 60% of teachers experienced sexual harassment involving pupils. Male teachers were more likely to experience it, but were less likely to report it. Birmingham Education Authority produced guidelines for teachers. The reduced respect for teachers has led to more ostentatious harassment. False allegations of abuse by teachers have increased since the Childen Act 1989.

Passengers on sinking cruise ship tell of panic, terror and incompetence

Article Abstract:

All 1,104 passengers and crew aboard the cruise ship 'Sun Vista' were able to escape safely after an electrical fire broke out in the engine room when the ship was in the Strait of Malacca, off Malaysia. However, passengers report that the evacuation was not handled well. A distress signal was not sent until the fire had been burning for three hours, and it was another hour before passengers were evacuated in 18 lifeboats and four life-rafts. Some passengers had to wait many hours for rescue ships.
