Miami Heat basketball star, Dwyane Wade, has sued the social networking website, Twitter, over his account getting hacked. The lawsuit also makes mention of his Yahoo email account being hacked, for which he is seeking the return of all copies of his emails that were illegally duplicated during the computer intrusion.
The lawsuit states, "The hackers reviewed years worth of confidential and private information, including documents between Wade and his attorneys, communications between Wade and his ex-wife, business associates, advisers, family and friends, the complaint states. The hackers also sent sometimes vulgar and threatening emails purporting to be from Wade and used Wade’s likeness request private documents, the complaint says."

According to several websites, News Corp owner and CEO, Rupert Murdoch, is attempting to re-launch the recently closed, News of the World newspaper, as the "The Sun on Sunday" named after his top selling tabloid, the Sun UK.
Writers point to the fact, Murdoch has registered the domain names www.thesunonsunday.com and www.thesunonsunday.co.uk. This is quite ironic, as an overwhelming majority of Britons, a nation of 60,000,000 people, want him out of the broadcasting and newspaper business for good, in light of the terrible phone hacking and wiretapping scandal he orchestrated and executed.
It has been revealed, Murdoch criminally engaged dubious private investigators to wiretap 9,000 mobile phones and landlines (house/condo/flat/apartment phones) in Britain for illegal tips, scoops and exclusives for News Corp's newspapers, websites and channels. That's not even counting the mobile phones and landlines he criminally wiretapped in America and Australia.
Since the reemergence of this rebooted scandal, Murdoch's stock has lost $7 billion dollars in value, due to shares falling. As stated previously, the key to saving the 51,000 jobs connected to News Corp, is to arrest the culprits involved in the scandal, including Murdoch and three of his children, remove them from the company and replace the treacherous clan with competent, law abiding executives.
The family can be permitted to retain their stake in the company, but the inevitable lawsuits will flood in and partly at their expense. If Murdoch and family, along with certain executives at News Corp, who are actively breaking the law, are allowed to remain at the corporation, more scandals concerning their behavior are on the way and it is going to finish off the company if they do not leave. They have a choice - stay and the company is decimated - or leave and preserve thousands of jobs.
However, they do no deserve pity over the legal onslaught that is about to commence, for the simple fact, they knowingly and ruthlessly broke the law, via criminal invasion of privacy, threatened and blackmailed government officials and civilians alike, in their quest to illegally dominate the news industry. They brought this on themselves, as none of what transpired can be deemed necessary conduct. It was greed, lawlessness and arrogance and there is a price to pay for that.
The Sun On Sunday: websites now controlled by News International
12th July, 2011 - Two domain names - thesunonsunday.co.uk and sunonsunday.co.uk - which were registered days before the News of the World's closure was announced are now under the control of News International, hinting at plans for a Sun On Sunday to replace the defunct paper.
A crazed man, Richard Franco, was arrested for trespassing at the home of actress, Halle Berry, three times over the past few days. The actress was alarmed when she saw Franco staring at her through her kitchen window.
Police were summons, leading to heightened security at Berry's West Hollywood home. Upon Franco's third illegal return to the property, hopping the wall once again, he was apprehended by off duty police officers, acting as Berry's security.
It has since been discovered, he has a long history of arrests for felony battery, burglary, vandalism and drug use. Franco has been charged with felony stalking. One can't be too careful, especially when a child is present in the home. Berry has a pretty little 3-year-old daughter.
In the past, paparazzi photos have invasively been taken of Berry in her backyard with her mom and daughter. The mere fact Franco was actually in their yard, must have alarmed the Oscar award winning actress. People need to respect others property and private space, as such trespassing is unacceptable and unlawful.
