Ukraine ex-minister Lutsenko 'out of intensive care'

Yuriy Lutsenko was reportedly trying to break up the violence when he was hurt Ukraine's ex-Interior Minister Yuriy Lutsenko has been moved from intensive care after getting hurt
in clashes in the capital Kiev, an MP says.

He was "in a stable condition" with concussion, Yuriy Polyachenko said.

Violence broke out between protesters and riot police on Friday when a court jailed three activists over an alleged terror plot.

The unrest took place amid ongoing protests at Ukraine's decision to pull out of a landmark deal with the EU.

Instead, President Viktor Yanukovych struck a deal with Russia in December, which has seen big cuts in the price of gas imports from Russia.

Moscow also supported Ukraine's finances with a $15bn purchase of government bonds.

The BBC's David Stern in Kiev says that while the ongoing protests have produced the largest demonstrations since the 2004 Orange Revolution, so far none of the protesters' main demands have been met.

'Footage of clashes'

Mr Lutsenko is the leader of the Third Ukrainian Republic opposition movement.

His party confirmed on Saturday that he had been placed in intensive care after suffering "closed-head injury,
concussion and hematomas".

Mr Lutsenko's wife Iryna said the former minister was attacked by baton-wielding police as he tried to break up the violence.

The clashes occurred outside a courthouse in Kiev, where a large crowd had gathered for the verdict in a trial against members of a far-right organisation.

Following the judgment, angry demonstrators blocked buses carrying police officers.

The situation escalated after protesters threw paint on the
windscreens and started rocking the vehicles, Local news reports showed footage of badly beaten protesters, including Mr Lutsenko.

The leading opposition figure was a prominent member of jailed former PM Yulia Tymoshenko's pro-Western
government.

He himself was jailed for embezzlement and abuse of office in 2010, but pardoned under EU pressure in April 2013.

Iraq: Deadly blast at Baghdad bus station

Iraq is edging towards sectarian civil war, correspondents say.

A car bomb has killed at least nine people and wounded others at a bus station in central Baghdad.

The bomb went off on Sunday morning outside the station in the Allawi area, local police said.

Last Thursday, a suicide bomber blew himself up among army recruits in the same area, killing 23 people.

Political tensions and violence have escalated in Iraq. The UN says 2013 was the deadliest year for five years, with more than 8,800 people killed.

No group has yet admitted carrying out the bus station attack.

The violence comes days after the UN's envoy to Iraq warned of a "critical humanitarian situation" in Anbar province, as troops prepare to launch a major assault against al-Qaeda-linked militants in Falluja.

Correspondents say a government drive to restore control of the two predominantly Sunni cities of Falluja and Ramadi is being seen by many Sunnis as an attempt at domination and oppression, and is taking Iraq back to the brink of a sectarian civil war.

Black rhino hunt permit auctioned in US

There were protests in Dallas as the auction took place A permit to hunt and kill an endangered Black Rhino in Namibia has been sold at a US auction for $350,000 (£212,000).

The Dallas Safari Club in Texas says the hunt will help protect the species by removing an old aggressive rhino,
and funding future conservation.

However, the auction has been fiercely criticised by conservationists, and has even drawn death threats.

Namibia is home to about a third of the world's 5,000 black rhinos, and issues just three hunting permits a year.

It is the first time a permit has been auctioned outside the southern African nation.

'A sad joke'

The auction was held amid tight security at a Dallas convention centre, where dozens of protesters had gathered.

The winning bidder - who has not been named - will hunt an old, non-breeding male rhino.

The organisers say such animals actually pose a threat to younger rhinos, which they sometimes charge and kill.

All proceeds will be donated to the Namibian government and will be earmarked for conservation efforts, safari club officials said.

Experts say growing demand for rhino horn in Asia is driving up instances of poaching Animal rights groups described the hunt's conservation
claim as "perverse" and "a sad joke".

"This auction is telling the world that an American will pay anything to kill their species," Jeffrey Flocken of the
International Fund for Animal Welfare (Ifaw) told the Associated Press.

"This is, in fact, making a spectacle of killing an endangered species."

More than 80,000 people signed online petitions against the auction.

The FBI says it is investigating a string of death threats over the auction.

At present it is estimated that there are around 20,000 white rhinos left.

Experts say that growing demand for rhino horn in Asia is driving up instances of poaching.

It is being fuelled by the belief in countries like China and Vietnam that powdered rhino horn has medicinal powers and can impact diseases like cancer. Horns can sell for around $65,000 a kg.

IBM commits $1bn to new Watson supercomputer division

In 2011 IBM's Watson supercomputer beat human rivals in the Jeopardy TV quiz show Computing giant IBM has said it will invest $1bn (£608m) creating a new division for Watson, its
Jeopardy-winning supercomputer.

Watson, named after former IBM president Thomas Watson, beat its human rivals in the US TV quiz show in 2011.

The investment includes a $100m fund to boost innovation around Watson-related developer apps.

The new division will be run by Michael Rhodin, former senior vice president of the company's software solutions group.

Watson aims to mimic how people think, using natural language capabilities and analytics, but can process vast amounts of information faster than the human brain.

IBM plans to farm out Watson's abilities to businesses and consumers via its cloud computing infrastructure,
Softlayer.

"Cognitive computing"

The company said the investment comes in response to a growing demand for cognitive computing - a more intuitive, human-centric form of artificial intelligence that understands the nuances and complexities of language and can learn from experience and new evidence.

"We have reached the inflection point where the interest is overwhelming and we recognised we need to move
faster," said Stephen Gold, vice president of Watson Business.

Jamie Popkin, of research firm Gartner, said: "I think [IBM has] developed something that takes us to the next step where information management needs to go."

It envisages a number of "powered by IBM Watson" assistive apps coming on to the market, such as Fluid's
expert personal shopper and Welltok's personalised health plans.

Healthcare professionals are likely to access Watson's huge database when using diagnostic equipment linked
wirelessly to smartphones and other mobile devices, experts believe.

Investment bank Credit Agricole has predicted that Watson spin-offs could account for more than 12% of IBM's
total revenue by 2018.

New Gmail messaging feature causes privacy concerns

Gmail users will be able to message anyone with a Google+ profile, unless they opt out Users of Google's Gmail service will soon be able to send messages directly to other Gmail accounts, regardless of whether the recipient has shared their email address.

The new feature will include everyone signed up to both Gmail and Google+, the web giant's social network.

The change has caused concern among some privacy advocates, who say people could be contacted by
strangers.

Google says it will make it easier for users to communicate with friends.

But privacy campaigner Marc Rotenberg, of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, called the new feature "troubling", and compared it to a privacy flaw in a previous
Google product.

"There is a strong echo of the Google Buzz snafu," he said, referring to an early incarnation of the company's social network, which initially made a list of Gmail users' contacts available publicly online.

'Easier to connect' Gmail members will see a list of their Google+ connections when they begin to type a name in the 'To' field of their
messages, even if they do not know the email address of the person they are attempting to contact.

The update was announced on Google's Gmail blog on Thursday by product manager David Nachum, who said the change would make it "easier for people using Gmail and Google+ to connect over email".

Users will have the option of disabling the new feature and can choose to allow only those within their 'Circles' to contact them.

However, the default setting allows anyone on the network to get in touch without prior consent.

"Address hidden"

Mr Nachum said that all users would be alerted to the new feature and how to change the default setting, within the next few days.

Messages from Google+ connections will go directly to Gmail users' inboxes.

He also explained that email addresses will not be visible
to a Google+ connection until a user replies to that person's initial message.

Google's update to Gmail messaging is the latest in a series of moves designed to bring its email service and social network Google+ closer together.

Users signing up to Gmail are now automatically given a Google+ account, unless they choose to disable it.
