Survivors desperate for clean water : Haiti Survivor

Rescuers continued to pull survivors from collapsed buildings in Port-au-Prince today as aid agencies and the US military raced to tackle the latest problem of the unfolding disaster: a lack of clean water that threatens dehydration and massive outbreaks of waterborne disease.

A team of British rescue workers pulled a mother alive from the rubble of her house last night, 96 hours after she was trapped by Tuesday’s earthquake.

Volunteer group Rapid UK, supported by firefighters from Manchester and Leicestershire, celebrated freeing the 39-year-old after she was trapped in a tiny slither of space when her home collapsed. When she emerged from the gap between the crumpled first and second floors her arm was cut and she was very dehydrated, but she was fully conscious and happy to be alive.

Google ‘may pull out of China after Gmail cyber attack’

Internet giant Google has said it may end its operations in China following a “sophisticated and targeted” cyber attack originating from the country.

It did not accuse Beijing directly, but said it was no longer willing to censor its Chinese search engine – google.cn.

This could result in closing the site, and its Chinese offices, Google said.

Chinese rival Baidu called the move “hypocritical” and financially driven. In US trade on Wednesday Baidu’s shares were up 10%, and Google’s down 1.5%.

Google said the e-mail accounts of Chinese human rights activists were the primary target of the attack, which occurred in December.

The search engine has now said it will hold talks with the government in the coming weeks to look at operating an unfiltered search engine within the law in the country, though no changes to filtering had yet been made.

Google launched google.cn in 2006, agreeing to some censorship of the search results, as required by the Chinese government.

It currently holds around a third of the Chinese search market, far behind Baidu with more than 60%.
