Former Israeli leader Ariel Sharon, who has been in a coma for seven years following a stroke, has surprised doctors by showing significant signs of brain activity.
The team at Israel's Soroka Medical Centre say their machines detected some brain function when he was shown photos of his family and asked to imagine his home.
Neurologist Alon Friedman said the results show that he could in some way be "listening":
"We cannot project anything, the point is that for his family and for the treating team we now know that he can take information and process it and even, perhaps, he is.. at some level he was conscious and this is very important for the family," Friedman said.
The Soroka team say the test results are a potential breakthrough in coma research, but stress that the chances of 84-year Sharon getting out of bed are very slim.
A hard-line right winger for most of his career, Sharon was Israeli prime minister from 2001 until his 2006 stroke.
In 2005 he made a political about-face, withdrawing Israeli troops from Gaza in the hope of advancing peace with the Palestinians.

A charmed two years for Lloyds savers
Sunday 28 May 2006
Lloyds TSB has fired another shot in the battle of the high-street banks with last week's launch of a regular savings account paying 8 per cent interest for two years.
Although the bank is a late entrant to the market for high-interest regular monthly savings accounts, it has won plaudits for the length of the offer.
"The headline rate of 8 per cent - while not market leading - is unquestionably very appealing, especially when combined with the fact that it is available for two years instead of the usual one," says Stuart Glendinning of the price-comparison service Moneysupermarket.com.
Although the bank has dubbed the offer a "no strings" account, there are in fact a number of restrictions to watch out for.
You can pay in up to £750 at the outset, but from then on your monthly contributions are limited to between £25 and £250.
And although, unusually for a regular-saver deal, you can get your hands on your money whenever you want, any withdrawals or missed monthly payments cannot be replaced.
Further, you need to hold your current account with Lloyds TSB - although unlike some financial institutions, it offers its regular saver to both new and existing customers.
Interest is paid once a year - on the anniversary of the account being opened - and a customer making the maximum contributions over two years can save £6,500 and earn £594.68 interest, claims Lloyds TSB.
Sue Hannums at Chase de Vere, an independent financial adviser, says savers can open a current account at Lloyds TSB with just £1 - and then take advantage of the 8 per cent regular saver.
"For a basic-rate tax- payer, this beats the rate paid on some [cash] individual savings accounts [ISAs]," she adds.
But Ms Hannums reminds savers that interest isn't paid on the whole lump sum put in over the year, but calculated pro rata as the money is paid in.
This means that while the first month's deposit earns 8 per cent for a year, the second month's deposit will earn this rate for 11 months, and so on.
Although Barclays and Alliance & Leicester pay 10 per cent for one year on regular-saver accounts, many savings specialists prefer the Halifax deal paying 7 per cent on regular contributions of between £25 and £250 a month for a year.
"The advantage of [the Halifax] account is that it is not restricted to current account customers but open to everyone," adds Mr Glendinning.

Brinkley stable after shooting
CHELTENHAM, Pa. -- San Diego Chargers rookie running back Curtis Brinkley was hospitalized in stable condition Friday after being shot at a suburban Philadelphia intersection, authorities said.
Brinkley, 23, was shot multiple times early Friday morning as his car was stopped at an intersection in Cheltenham, police said. Investigators are looking for a gunman who fled the scene in a car. They did not have a motive.
Brinkley was able to drive himself a short distance, then was taken to a hospital by a police officer who responded to the shooting, according to Cheltenham Township police.
He was listed in stable condition at Albert Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia, hospital spokesman Rodney Yancey said.
In a statement, the Chargers wished Brinkley a speedy recovery but said they would have no further comment while the shooting was under investigation.
It is the third time in six years a Chargers player has been shot. In September 2006, linebacker Steve Foley was shot three times by an off-duty police officer in Coronado, Calif., who suspected him of driving drunk. The injury ended his career.
In July 2003, rookie safety Terrence Kiel was shot during an attempted carjacking in Houston. Four years later, he pleaded guilty to felony and misdemeanor drug charges for shipping prescription cough syrup to Texas. He was released by the team after his plea and died in a car crash in July 2008.
Brinkley signed with the Chargers as a rookie free agent following this year's draft. As a senior at Syracuse last season, he rushed for 1,164 yards and seven touchdowns.
A native of Philadelphia, Brinkley was a prolific running back at West Catholic High School. He set city high school records with 7,429 career rushing yards and 85 touchdowns.
In a statement, Syracuse coach Doug Marrone extended the program's thoughts and prayers to Brinkley and his family, wishing him a speedy recovery.

quietearth [Celluloid 06.12.08] movie news horror
After this past week's debacle of the promo reel leaking, then repeatedly getting removed at the request of the director, we finally have some official footage of the film, although unfortunately it doesn't show much. Martyrs recently received and 18+ rating in France which is tantamount to dooming a film to hell, but there is an appeal pending so let's hope it goes well. For those who've missed it, here is further details on the film, and the 2 teasers are after the break.

'US softening opposition to Fatah-Hamas unity'
Mashaal with Abbas 311 R.
(photo credit:Reuters)
The US appears to have softened its opposition to unity between Fatah and Hamas,
a top Fatah official in the West Bank said Monday.Azzam al-Ahmed, a
member of the Fatah Central Committee and a senior adviser to Palestinian
Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, said that US opposition to the unity idea was
"less strong."Ahmed's comments came hours after Abbas met in Ramallah
with US Secretary of State John Kerry to discuss American efforts to revive the
stalled peace process with Israel.Ahmed said that Abbas would meet with
Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal in Doha, Qatar, later this week to discuss the
formation of a Palestinian unity government.Abbas arrived in Doha on
Monday to participate in an Arab League meeting on the peace process.The
Fatah official said he would head to Cairo on Tuesday to meet with Hamas senior
official Musa Abu Marzouk to prepare for the Abbas-Mashaal summit.The US
has strongly opposed Abbas's attempts to join forces with Hamas unless the
Islamist movement recognized Israel's right to exist and renounced
violence.Abbas's renewed attempts to achieve unity with Hamas came amid
reports that PA Prime Minister Salam Fayyad was planning to submit his
resignation to the PA president.In a surprise move, Fayyad met on Monday
in Jerusalem with Kerry. It's not clear why the two chose to meet in Jerusalem
and not in Ramallah.Sources in Ramallah said that Fayyad was expected to
quit or face being sacked by Abbas after months of escalating tension between
the two men.Tensions peaked recently when Fayyad accepted the
resignation of his finance minister, Nabil Qassis, despite Abbas's
opposition.Abbas is also reported to have been enraged over the fact
that US President Barack Obama, who visited Ramallah last month, met separately
with Fayyad.Last week, Fatah leaders meeting in Ramallah urged Abbas to
dismiss Fayyad.Some accused Fayyad of seeking to undermine Abbas's
authority with the help of the US.Meanwhile, PA officials refused Monday
to talk about the Abbas-Kerry meeting, which took place in Ramallah on Sunday
night.Abbas and Kerry agreed during the meeting that the two parties
would refrain from publicly commenting on the outcome of their
discussions.One official, however, confirmed that Abbas had asked that
parts of Area C in the West Bank be transferred to PA control to pave the way
for the resumption of the peace talks with Israel.The official also said
that Abbas's main goal now was to secure the release of a significant number of
Palestinian prisoners from Israeli jails.Asked whether the US had given
the PA a green light to form a unity government with Hamas, the official said:
"Palestinian unity is an internal issue and interest and we won't allow any
party to meddle in our internal affairs.

Brandon Sun - ONLINE EDITION
Doctors recommend more freedom for man who beheaded Greyhound passenger
Doctors are recommending increased freedom for Vince Li, the mentally ill man found not criminally responsible for a random killing on board a Greyhound bus.
Li appeared in a Winnipeg courtroom this afternoon for his annual Review Board hearing. He was described by his treatment team as a "model patient" who no longer suffers from the type of hallucinations which triggered the 2008 attack near Portage la Prairie.
Dr. Steven Kremer, who has worked closely with Li at Selkirk Mental Health Centre, said it's time to loosen the reins. He proposed three suggestions:
- Li be allowed unescorted passes into the city of Selkirk, on an incremental basis. Currently, Li is only allowed off-site while escorted. He has taken more than 100 such leaves into Selkirk without incident.
- Li be allowed more relaxed escorted passes into Winnipeg. Currently, Li must be given one-to-one supervision. Kremer is recommending Li be placed under "general supervision" which will be one worker for every three patients.
- Li be moved from a locked facility at Selkirk into a more relaxed, unlocked facility.
The Review Board expects to make their decision within a week. But the writing appears to be on the wall, given that the Crown isn't objecting to the recommendations.
"Mr. Li has done everything that's been asked of him," prosecutor Susan Helenchilde told court today. She conceded her department is in a difficult position given that they represent the general public and that Li's actions were so brutal.
"This is one of the most ghoulish tragedies in Canadian history," she said. However, Helenchilde conceded Li's best interests must be considered following his NCR finding in court.
Li was found not criminally responsible for the beheading of Tim McLean on a Greyhound bus in July 2008 near Portage la Prairie. A judge found Li suffered hallucinations from untreated schizophrenia at the time of the unprovoked attack and ordered him held at the Selkirk centre.
To that extent, Kremer said today that Li knows the importance of staying on his medications for schizophrenia and has shown great insight into what triggered the attack. Li has been deemed a low-risk to re-offend, and Kremer said the only real security concern as Li ventures out into the community is that some member of the public might attack him.
The family of Li's victim, Tim McLean, were in court today but not allowed to make a presentation to the board. They have been vocal critics of Li's relaxed freedoms and have pushed for tougher federal legislation.
McLean's mother, Carol de Delley, believes mentally ill killers such as Li must be held indefinitely in a hospital.
The federal government introduced Bill C-54, the Not Criminally Responsible Reform Act, last year in response to Li's case. The bill would create a new category of high-risk offenders who can't be considered for release until a court agrees to revoke the designation. They would not have a review of their status for three years, would not be given unescorted passes and would only get escorted passes under narrow circumstances.
The law would make public safety the main consideration in such cases and ensure victims would be notified when the offender is released. The law could also be applied retroactively.
Advocates said the bill further stigmatizes the mentally ill, incorrectly suggests the likelihood of reoffending is connected to the brutality of the crime, and makes people unnecessarily afraid of those with mental illness.
