(CBS/AP) CAIRO – An Egyptian court suspended on Tuesday a government decision allowing military police and 김천출장샵 intelligence to arrest civilians, a setback for the country’s military rulers after the decree drew an outcry from opponents who accused them of trying to impose martial law. The Justice Ministry issued a decree on July 13 that allowed military police and intelligence agents to arrest civilians for even minor offenses such as traffic violations. Rights activists feared the new powers essentially reproduced the country’s hated emergency law, which had expired just two weeks earlier after more than 30 years in force. The emergency law granted broad powers of arrest and detention to police that were abused over the years and fed the popular anger that led to last year’s uprising.

Military officials said at the time that the new powers were only meant to fill a security vacuum resulting from the uprising when the police force collapsed and disappeared from the streets during the first days of mass protests.

Chapman, star of A&E’s hit reality series “Dog the Bounty Hunter,” issued a statement apologizing for the comments after The National Enquirer posted a clip of the conversation in which he uses the N-word in reference to his son’s girlfriend. “We take this matter very seriously,” A&E spokesman Michael Feeney said in a statement Thursday. “Pending an investigation, we have suspended production on the series. When the inquiry is concluded, we will take appropriate action.” The recording was first posted online by the Enquirer. It was unclear who recorded the conversation or how the tabloid obtained the 1½-minute clip in which Chapman uses the N-word six times. A woman at the Enquirer said no one would be available to comment after hours. In the conversation, Chapman urges his son to break up with his girlfriend. He also expresses concern about the girlfriend going public about the TV star’s use of the N-word. In a statement, the 54-year-old Chapman said he has “utmost respect and aloha for black people who have suffered so much due to racial discrimination and acts of hatred. “I did not mean to add yet another slap in the face to an entire race of people who have brought so many gifts to this world,” he said. “I am ashamed of myself and I pledge to do whatever I can to repair this damage I have...

(AP) GDANSK, Poland – A trio of second-half goals put Germany into the European Championship semifinals for a record seventh time Friday after a 4-2 win over Greece. Philipp Lahm gave Germany the lead in the 39th minute before Georgios Samaras equalized for Greece in the 55th. But Sami Khedira, Miroslav Klose and Marco Reus all scored to pull Germany clear. “We made some silly mistakes but at the end we scored four goals,” Lahm said. “We had many chances in the first 10-15 minutes.” German Chancellor Angela Merkel made the trip for the match and 순천출장안마 stood to cheer every time her team scored. The match was played amid the political backdrop between the countries. Germany has been a major contributor to economic bailouts for Greece and was instrumental in demanding unpopular spending cuts. Germany dominated nearly the entire match at the Arena Gdansk, but the Greek defense held strong for much of the first half. Lahm finally put his team in front by controlling the ball with his chest and dribbling toward the middle before sending a long-distance shot into the corner off the hand of Greece goalkeeper Michalis Sifakis. The Greeks looked better at the start of the second half, and even equalized when Samaras knocked the ball past Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer after a perfect cross from Dimitris Salpigidis. “When we conceded a second goal...

(CBS) Prince is no stranger to controversy. He courted so much of it that he called his fourth album “Controversy.” These days he’s stirring things up over two topics that have proved incendiary: Religion and his music. The singer, who embraced religion fully and became a Jehovah’s Witness about a decade ago after years of Biblical references in his music, told The Guardian, “It’s fun being in Islamic countries, to know there’s only one religion. There’s order. You wear a burqa. There’s no choice. People are happy with that.” He suggested people who aren’t happy with that are the kind of people who are never happy with anything. Everyone has to change, but this is a guy who sang about losing his virginity in a barn and asked his critics, “Am I black or white? Am I straight or gay?” He wrote “Darling Nikki.” What happened? Prince has always been off-beat. He changed his name to a symbol while he was battling with Warner Bros. over his recording contract and 영광출장안마 decided “Graffiti Bridge” was a good idea. He’s been all over the news lately with a successful tour and his claim that he won’t record and release new music because of piracy on the Internet. In the same Guardian interview, he says, “‘I’m supposed to go to the White House to talk about copyright protection. It’s like the...
