from around the globe to help you decide.
UNITED KINGDOM?
Millions of commuters in London face travel chaos on Monday
as the latest 24-hour strike on the Underground train network
causes major disruption to the city's transport system.
The second walkout in a
dispute between unions and the Underground operator over
proposed job cuts will force Londoners to cycle, walk or
take their cars to make it into work.
AUSTRALIA?
In a bloody street brawl involving up to 100 people in central
Adelaide, four young men were stabbed in the violence overnight,
while four other men, mostly from interstate, have been
charged.
Revellers in Adelaide's
East End were confronted with a violent scene on Sunday
night as people brawled off the Rundle Street restaurant
strip.
Chief Inspector John Gerlach
says some of them were armed with weapons.
"Certainly knives, because most of the injuries were
stab wounds, but there were tyre levers, clubs and makeshift
batons. It was described to me that one even had a post
off a bed," he said.
CANADA?
Radio-Canada reported on Thursday that a former member of
the Order of Holy Cross says the religious group was aware
of allegations of sexual abuse by Holy Cross brothers, but
did nothing.
A nine-page document lists specific abuse
allegations over the years at Montreal's College Notre Dame,
and names a dozen Holy Cross brothers as alleged abusers.
The document shows how alleged abusers at the private school
were not reported to the police but allowed to remain as
teachers or support staff.
NEW ZEALAND?
New Zealand police told Eyewitness News that a post mortem
on the remains of South African Carmen Thomas will be conducted
on Monday.
Police found the 32-year-old's dismembered
body partially buried in plastic containers in what they
called "a crude burial site" in an Auckland bush
reserve on Saturday night
FRANCE? GERMANY?
Militants allegedly plotting attacks in Europe have a list
of targets including Paris's Eiffel Tower and a hotel close
to Berlin's Brandenburg Gate, Fox News reported on Sunday.
Attractions on the list also included the
luxury Hotel Adlon near Berlin's Brandenburg Gate, the Notre
Dame Cathedral in Paris, Berlin's Central Station and its
landmark Alexanderplatz TV tower, Fox said citing unnamed
intelligence officials.
DUBAI?
Once filled with the cacophony of cranes and construction
laborers, Dubai today hums to the work of a quieter crowd.
The brash Gulf emirate, renowned for extravagant real estate
projects and flashy living, has turned into a city of auditors.
The auditors' task is to investigate exactly
where the money went, who lined whose pockets, and what
other financial landmines might lie in store. Forensic audits
at state-linked firms, such as Dubai Holding, are part of
a wider corruption probe that has targeted senior figures
from Dubai's boom years.
