The Kyocera Hydro Life delivers useful features for a low price, but its disappointing performance makes it worth considering only if you absolutely need a water-resistant smartphone.
The low-cost waterproof smartphone joins a growing roster of devices capable of making phone calls over Wi-Fi.
This rugged, dustproof phone can survive a tumble.
Check out this rugged, water-resistant Android GSM phone from Kyocera.
The Kyocera Hydro Icon might be inexpensive and waterproof, but a general lack of noteworthy features and a rather poor camera make this one tough to recommend.
The 4G-capable smartphone is waterproof, but not much else.
The Kyocera Hydro Vibe is an unmemorable phone that can't outpace its competitors, and is only worth considering if water-resistance is a top priority.
As the summer gets underway, the no-contract carrier rounds out its lineup with this water-resistant and drop-proof Android phone.
In addition to having a 4.5-inch screen, 4G LTE, and a quad-core processor, the Hydro Vibe sports a waterproof exterior as well.
Sprint and its pre-paid arm Virgin Mobile will carry the entry-level, waterproof smartphone in May.

I need a virtual assistant. Or ten. I work full time as a graphic and web designer, I teach two classes twice a week at the local college, I'm currently working on three contract websites, I'm the technical lead for a startup that a friend and I have just launched after months of preparation and I have a fairly demanding position at church.
I don't have enough hours in the day. I need someone to pay a few bills, someone to code a few small sections of a website that need to be altered and add some CMS code to it. I need someone to update a database for me with some simple data. I need an excel spreadsheet put together with data that is easily accessible but time consuming to compile. I need a powerpoint presentation for our start-up business so we can have a great looking demo of what we do and how we do it. I need some pages built for our start up website that I just haven't had time to look into. I need someone to help me grade assignments at school. I need someone to read through the books of material I have and give me some outsider's perspective on what's important and what's not. Did I mention I have three kids and one on the way? More time with them and my wife would be the best gift I can receive.
My list goes on and on – I could use a virtual assistant in so many ways. I'm also curious as to how much work I would end up sending your way. This would be a good exercise in delegation. As the donkey on Shrek says, "Oooh, oooh, pick me! Pick me!"

I am a work at home mother with two children in school. One elementary and one in high school. Between motherhood and small business owner, I only have so many hours in the day.
If I were lucky enough to win this generous offer by Six Revisions and Longer Days, I would utilize my Virtual Assistant to help me optimize my business blog and really establish my presence online. I have found that my lack of a good working knowledge of HTML/CSS has resulted in many hours that I could have devoted to writing content, building up readersip, and developing realtionships with my readers.
Once my chosen Virtual Assistant had helped me with this task and I still had available hours, I would ask my VA to help me with research for article development. I already have a list of titles and subjects I wish to write on, I just have not found the time to devote to this task in the past two months with my children being home during their summer break from school. And now that they are back to school, some of my time will naturally be going to their activities, etc.
Recently, I moved away from home. I work two full time jobs, and a part time job. I am supporting my wife as she attends her second year of nursing (out of four years), paying for a house, and an apartment near a job I took.
I visit my wife every second weekend (3 hour drive). On top of all of this, I am looking at building out a few web properties this year. I've been a full time blogger for a long time now, but had to take on extra work due to the economy, hence my crazy hours and long days.
One of the main tasks I could use help with is finding, screening and organizing writers for this new site, LifeSnips.com. Currently, I am trying to do this myself, but it is quickly cutting into all the other work I am doing, and I'd hate to not be able to pursue my dream of working for myself because of my current responsibilities.
If I can get this site off the ground and running effectively, I know I can, over the next year or two get myself set up so that I can work from home, thus also allowing my wife and I to finally have children (she'll take a part time nursing job after school is done, since that's how many nurses start out in our area), and I'll work for myself, stepping in to help raise the kids as often as I can.
I won't be able to enjoy family life if I am balancing two and a half jobs, plus my own projects, and so I just need some help getting things going. Please consider me for the VA prizes.

As a owner of a small company there are a lot of tiny jobs being done during the day I have really not that focus on.
Sorting snail-mail, cleaning up my email inbox, writing invoices, cross-reading technical documents.
All these tiny "steps" have to be done. But in the end my day is chopped into very small pieces. And the main stuff I have to do – like running the company and doing work that gets money in – is postponed another day.
Having somebody doing these tiny jobs will give me the possibility doing my main stuff in a defined and not sliced timeframe.
Finally, this will give me more time with my family at the end of a satisfying work day.
Unlike the majority of contestants entering this competition, I am a complete novice at all things web-related, and I would like to change that.
I am British, living in Spain, where it is impossible to obtain work as a Spaniard, let alone English!
I am trying to become an effective blogger. Although I have topic ideas, I do not have the resources or knowledge to thoroughly research those ideas.
I would also like some unbiased opinions on my choice of topic and some professional help setting up my new blog. I lack the confidence and knowledge in the very important preliminaries of creating a blog that people want to visit and read.
My primary idea is to create a blog detailing my journey from a complete novice to a competent amateur graphic designer. This is my passion, and although I work hard and dedicate many hours to learning graphic design, I realise I am flailing aimlessly without professional suggestions and guidance.
I would like a Virtual Assistant to hold my hand and help me through this minefield that is, a present, impossible for me to negotiate.
Whoever wins this competition, I think Six Revisions and Longer Days are offering a superb opportunity to 2 very lucky people, and should be recognised for that.

I have recently launched my business into the retail space. Previously, I had a regular day job and managed my business and my clientele in the evenings. With the migration into a retail location, I have found my day is being taken up more and more by business administration aspects and less of what I love doing (and moreso what brings in the revenue.)
The idea has been tossed around of hiring an employee is floating in my head. However, hiring a full-time employee so far is outside the scope and budget of what I'm doing. Hiring part-time is an interesting concept, but finding a quality employee whom is looking for only part-time hours is difficult in this area.
The idea of a virtual assistant would fit my needs comfortably. The list found on LongerDays.com is I'm sure just a tip of the iceburg, and does inspire of what I can offload from myself to maximize in what I want to do.
One of the services I like about LongerDays.com virtual assistant system is the capability of having an extra hand in the customer service department. The idea that I could still have someone answer the phone for me when I am indisposed (customer, epiphany or out on a service call) that I can still have someone professional and courteous answer the phone, email or otherwise.
As being a ahop of one, it is hard to do proofreading on my own. Although I tend to be cautious with all of my works, you never know when things are going to slip through the cracks. With only one pair of eyes typos do happen. A second pair of eyes would help greatly.
I could go on and on about how much of LongerDays.com's services I could use. The flow of thought on how to free myself up further is expanding; LongerDays.com, you are geniuses!
Ok, I am a young entrepreneur (webmaster with a very small design and advertising agency) with many ideas, projects and plans. Unfortunately one realizes that when you put your hands on a project, involves at the same time not to touch another one, especially when there are few people involved. I have many ideas where I could use "Longer Days," relating to my business that would be a real ROI for us:
Searching online demographic information existing on the web to start a new project I have in mind of catering only to a certain population.
Also, I need some help on creating new accounts on social networks and make new specialized contacts on Twitter, MySpace, Flickr, Hi5, Facebook for Metrolofog and some of my clients and my own business, so we can benefit from using social networking.
I also need to find the right keywords on Google Adwords for some of my client's campagins and design those text ads.
I also very often need help in my live chat software on my site (fluent written Spanish needed), because I just don't have time to attend new visitors!
I need to write some articles (of our own creation but certanly based on others) about our services to be published on our website to improve our appearance in search engines.
I need to gather some whois data of certains domains and put it on our online CRM so we can be aware of those things and benefit of that.
I also need someone to pick some website templates according to a list of certain kind of business so we can use them on later projects.
And for personal purposes I need help in setting up a sort of photo blog of our city, so we I just upload new pics when we have them. And I also have a blog about a beautiful mexican traditional clothing called "rebozo", wich I need to populate with related articles, youtube videos and pictures (I would shot those), one per day, so in the near future I can get some money from ads.
Well I just want to end congratulating Brian Gladu (Longer Days) for his brilliant idea, he really knew detect a necessity and knew how to propose a system to solve it. And thank Jacob Gube (Six Revisions) for his disponnibility to spread the word. Lucky you, winners, whoever you are!
Excuse my english by the way, I'm not a english native spekaer.

Maryland Man Convicted for Conspiring to Commit Series of Armed Robberies of Latino Small Businesses
ALEXANDRIA, Va. – Serfido Trinidad Perez Florian, 41, of Riverdale, Md., Va., was convicted today by a federal jury for conspiring to commit a string of armed robberies of small businesses that primarily serve the Latino community in Prince William and Fairfax counties, as well as planning to rob a Wachovia Bank branch in Horsham, Penn., and a drug dealer in the District of Columbia. He is the fifth conspirator to be convicted as a part of the investigation into these robberies.
Neil H. MacBride, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia; James W. McJunkin, Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI's Washington Field Office; Charlie T. Deane, Prince William County Chief of Police; and Colonel David Rohrer, Fairfax County Chief of Police, made the announcement after the verdict was accepted by United States District Judge Gerald Bruce Lee.
"Florian conspired with a group of armed thugs that spread fear and violence through robberies of Latino businesses throughout Prince William and Fairfax counties," said U.S. Attorney MacBride. "They placed guns at the heads of store employees, shot at them while attempting to escape, and even threatened a child of a store owner. Florian and his partners were caught and convicted through the excellent and collaborative efforts of our local and federal partners."
"Violent crime through armed robberies of small businesses endangers our communities and neighbors," said FBI ADIC McJunkin. "Because of the hard work and dedication of multiple law enforcement agencies, working in concert with the FBI, we were collectively able to remove a violent group of criminals from our streets."
"This case is another outstanding example of cooperation between law enforcement agencies across jurisdictional and state lines," said Chief Deane of the Prince William County Police Department. "With the use of technology and communication between agencies our ability to apprehend suspects is even greater than before."
"The violence these armed robbers willingly displayed made their identification and capture critical to public safety in our region," said Chief Rohrer of the Fairfax County Police Department. "The Fairfax County detectives involved in the investigation and arrests in these cases deeply appreciate the cooperation, coordination, and operational and prosecutorial support our federal, state, and local partners contributed to the joint effort to stop these vicious crimes."
Florian was charged in a second superseding indictment on Sept. 22, 2011, on charges of conspiracy, robbery, and use of a firearm during a crime of violence. Florian was convicted today for conspiracy and acquitted on the robbery and firearm charges. He faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison when he is sentenced on March 23, 2012. Four of Florian's co-conspirators pled guilty and testified at trial of their roles in the robberies and are awaiting sentencing.
According to evidence at trial, Florian participated in a conspiracy that targeted at least eight businesses and stole approximately $238,000 in cash and jewelry from August 2010 through February 2011. At each location, conspirators carried handguns, either brandished a firearm or put a handgun at employees' heads, and demanded money and other valuables. On at least two of the robberies, the armed gunmen shot at the store employees while attempting to flee the scene.
Evidence also revealed that Florian and his conspirators were working with individuals later revealed as undercover officers to commit an armed robbery of a Wachovia Bank branch in Horsham, Penn. Florian, his co-conspirators, and an undercover officer met at a car dealership to select the vehicles to be used in the robbery attempt, conducted surveillance on the bank, and inspected multiple firearms and bullet proof vests they would allegedly use in committing the armed robbery. They also discussed robbing a drug dealer in the District of Columbia. The undercover officers involved in the investigation were with the Metropolitan Police Department.
This case was investigated by the FBI's Washington Field Office, Prince William County Police Department, Fairfax County Police Department, and the Metropolitan Police Department, with assistance from Takoma Park Police Department. Assistant United States Attorneys Patricia Giles and Justin Fairfax are prosecuting the case on behalf of the United States.
A copy of this press release may be found on the website of the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Virginia at http://www.justice.gov/usao/vae. Related court documents and information may be found on the website of the District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia at http://www.vaed.uscourts.gov or on https://pcl.uscourts.gov.

How to pay off your home loan fast
PUBLISHED: 04 Aug 2012 00:02:00 | UPDATED: 07 Aug 2012 00:49:09PUBLISHED: 04 Aug 2012 PRINT EDITION: 04 Aug 2012Resi chief executive Lisa Montgomery says money paid into a redraw facility may make you consider withdrawing money more carefully. Photo: Louie Douvis

Home loan rates are more than one percentage point below their 20-year historical average, offering a window of opportunity to make dramatic inroads into what's probably the biggest debt of your lifetime. Whether you're starting a new loan or looking to downsize, wheeling and dealing on your mortgage now will give you more choices down the track.
The average standard variable interest rate is 6.5 per cent. Compared with the 7.7 per cent average rate over the past 20 years (or 9.45 per cent just four years ago), these lower rates mean extra repayments pack more punch and pay off your home sooner, freeing up cash to create wealth elsewhere or bunker down to weather a period of job uncertainty.
While short-term forecasts say an increase in rates is unlikely, they will go up at some stage, so it's important to act now before the opportunity is gone.
Looked at another way, repaying your mortgage at 6.5 per cent stacks up pretty well against other investments.
"Repaying your home loan gives you a risk free, after-tax return equal to the home loan interest rate. That is pretty hard to beat," says Suzanne Haddan, financial planner and managing director of BFG Financial Services.
"Any investment you compare it with would have to do better than that and be risk free," she adds.
Paying off the home loan should generally be top of mind for most mortgage holders as repayments are made from after-tax dollars and none of the interest and other costs are tax-deductible.
But how much thought really goes into the difference extra payments can make and the strategies around making that happen?
The cash rate is 3.5 per cent, compared with the average variable standard rate of about 6.5 per cent, a margin of 3 percentage points. This is higher than the average 2.4 percentage point margin over the past 20 years, points out research house RateCity.
On a $400,000 home loan with a variable rate of interest at 6.5 per cent over 30 years monthly repayments would be about $2530.
An increase in rates by 1 percentage point to 7.5 per cent would lift those monthly repayments by more than $250 to $2797. A return to the average historical rate of 7.77 per cent means monthly repayments would be higher still at $2871.
If the long-term aim is to free up cash for other things – or bring down borrowings in the face of job uncertainty – it makes sense to reduce the debt that could be stopping you. By being strategic it may also be possible to use a portion of the equity in your home to invest in other income-earning assets which could help pay down the non-deductible debt, says Smartline broker and senior wealth strategist Sam Ghoreyshi.
For example, an investor on the highest tax bracket of 45 per cent would have to earn $1818 for every $1000 they put towards their home loan.
The investor could use a portion of their equity, say $100,000, to invest in an asset earning 5 per cent ($5000) in income. Growth would be in addition. The costs associated with the investment (including interest payable on the loan amount associated with the investment) would be tax-deductible. Any tax saving – along with income earned from the investment – would go towards paying down the home loan.
Ghoreyshi estimates a tax saving of about $2900 a year which, if used to pay down a $500,000 home loan, would reduce it by just over three years and reduce the interest by about $95,000 over the loan's life.
"There are many different type of investments. Because the yields on some assets could be greater than the interest payable you could be cash-flow neutral or even positive which would give even more to pay down the home loan," says Ghoreyshi.
"The best thing for anyone with a home loan is to see how the composition of the non-deductible debt [bad debt] and deductible debt [good debt] changes the way you save in tax and reduces your bad debt, thereby owning your home quicker," he says.
This week, Smart Money looks at ways to make significant inroads into a mortgage, including the continuation of higher repayments in the event of a rate cut, investing lump sums, cutting interest with the help of a redraw facility or offset account, spending less elsewhere to concentrate on the mortgage, and refinancing to a lower interest rate.
Not too long ago interest rates were above their long-term average. Let's assume you took out a $500,000 loan in 2008 when the variable interest rate was at its most recent high of 9.45 per cent.
Crunching the numbers using calculators devised by Noel Whittaker, financial adviser and co-founder of Whittaker Macnaught, repayments would have been $4186 a month. It would have taken 30 years to pay off the loan with a final interest bill of $1.007 million.
Keeping repayments at the same level – even though rates are now 6.5 per cent and the required repayments far less – would reduce the loan term to 16 years and total interest payments to $306,882. Whittaker's rule of thumb is to pay $12 for every $1000 owed. He says that the optimum time over which to pay off a home loan is 10 years – to ensure the homebuyer pays the least amount of interest for the greatest possible gain. Because of the way compound interest works, there is little interest to be saved by speeding up repayments once the loan term is down to 10 years, he adds.
Whittaker advocates that when the mortgage is repaid, or is close to being repaid, the same amount that was going towards repayments can be used to buy other income-producing assets such as shares.
Lump sum payments – from a tax refund, work bonus or redundancy payment – can wipe years off a loan.
Mortgage Choice spokeswoman Belinda Williamson says that a borrower with a $400,000 home loan at 6.5 per cent, who is five years into their 30-year loan term and contributes a lump sum payment of $500, will save about $2028 in interest and cut almost one month off the term of the loan.
Repeating this process each year would have a sizable impact on a borrower's loan situation, Williamson says.
Lump sum contributions of an extra $500 each year on top of the initial $500 for six years would save about $9819 in interest and cut almost five months off the term.
"Making extra repayments into your home loan can speed up the accumulation of equity and help you repay the loan sooner by reducing the length of the loan and interest payable," says Williamson.
Extra repayments could come from anywhere.
Rather than use points accumulated through credit card spending on the frequent flyer program, Ghoreyshi used the points to do the shopping. The money he would have spent on shopping went towards paying off the home loan.
His other tricks are to put any small change into a jar and regularly put it towards the home loan.
"I paid about $6000 towards the home loan over several years," he says.
Everyone likes to live for today but managing discretionary expenditure can also mean short-term pain for long-term gain.
A small amount each month can make a big difference.
RateCity calculates that adding just $50 per month to the payments on a $400,000 home loan at 6.5 per cent could save you more than $34,000 over 30 years and reduce the term by almost two years.
The best way to determine whether money being spent elsewhere could be used to help pay down the mortgage is to know where your money is going. Drawing up a budget provides a clear picture of household expenditure and where possible cuts can be made.
The trick is to make sure any savings are redirected to the mortgage and not used elsewhere.
As well as redirecting expenses towards the home loan, any pay rises could be used to increase the repayments by the same rate.
The use of a redraw facility or offset account will mean you are charged less interest on the balance of a mortgage. If you have a $400,000 home loan and you have $10,000 sitting in an offset account. you will be charged interest on $390,000.
The offset account means the money is readily available because it has a debit card, says RateCity spokesperson Michelle Hutchison.
With a redraw account you first have to transfer money to a transaction account, online or over the phone, before you can access it. Often there is an associated bank fee. Which one you choose may come down to your discipline to save and whether you will take money out of the offset account only when you absolutely have to.
BFG's Haddan says it may make sense to get a salary paid into an offset account and draw funds when needed but warns against using the home loan like a residential automatic teller machine.
"When you are struggling to reach a goal financially it is better to use a bucket system, so what goes into the home loan bucket stays there. A separate bucket can be used for living expenses," she says.
Money paid into both reduces the interest you are charged as the balance is lower. Lisa Montgomery, chief executive at broker Resi Mortgage Corporation, agrees that money paid into a redraw facility may make you consider withdrawing money more carefully.
The trick here is to move to a lender offering a lower interest rate but to avoid the temptation to borrow more. Lower interest rates are a definite saving on a home loan but make sure they don't come at the expense of other services like the ability to make extra repayments or have an offset account.
Banks and other lenders excel at advertising low introductory or transfer rates but the rate that matters is the one over the longer term – as well as the overall package.
Montgomery says borrowers watch interest rate movements closely and are more willing to switch lenders to get a better rate. But while they are at it, if the equity is there, they are given the opportunity to borrow more funds or consolidate other loans into the lower-costing home loan, she adds.
"It is important to be prudent about the amount you borrow and disciplined with your spending and saving habits, as well as making extra payments," says Montgomery.
Consolidating personal debts such as credit cards or car loans onto a home loan can make sense provided repayments are at the same rate as total outgoings before the lower-costing loan, she adds.
For example, if the $20,000 debt that was owing on a credit card plus a car loan and store card cost a total $800 a month in repayments, the same total amount should be paid in addition to existing home loan repayments.
Montgomery says that if a home loan increased from, say, $280,000 to $300,000 to take in the other personal debt at a lower rate of 7 per cent, the biggest mistake would be to pay the minimum over, say, 30 years.
Instead, keeping the home loan repayments at the previous rate of $1865 a month, plus paying the extra $800, would reduce the 30-year term by 14 years and 8 months and would save almost $230,000 in interest, she says.

Susana Martinez has said the law made the state a magnet for people from other states seeking a license.Story highlightsMartinez: "I believe the most effective solution is to simply repeal this dangerous law"Some hope the governor, who has tried to repeal the law before, will compromise this timeNew Mexico, Washington grant unrestricted driver's licenses to undocumented immigrantsDriver's licenses are at the heart of a new battle in the nationwide immigration debateNew Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez said Wednesday that she plans a new push to repeal the state law allowing undocumented immigrants to obtain driver's licenses. Martinez, who has tried to get the law repealed twice before, described it as dangerous in a post on her official Facebook page."I am once again asking the legislature to repeal the law that gives driver's licenses to illegal immigrants," said Martinez, a Republican. "I am always willing to discuss this issue with legislators from both parties and explore ways to find common ground, but I believe the most effective solution is to simply repeal this dangerous law."Her comments are the latest salvo in a nationwide debate over the controversial issue.Some were hopeful that the nod toward compromise was a sign that her approach may have changed from past attempts to repeal the measure.Opinion: Solve immigration without a quick path to citizenship"We are encouraged that a compromise can be worked out by the legislators and the governor," said Allen Sanchez, executive director of the New Mexico Conference of Catholic Bishops, a group that has fought the governor's attempts to repeal the law.Just WatchedDriver's licenses for illegal immigrantsreplayMore Videos ...Driver's licenses for illegal immigrants 03:36PLAY VIDEOMartinez, the first Latina governor in the United States, promoted the repeal of the 2003 law during her campaign for governor.

Democratic state Sen. Pete Campos told KRQE. "It is important for us to move forward."For months, driver's licenses and other state benefits have been at the heart of a battle in the nationwide immigration debate.In New Mexico, supporters of the licenses for undocumented immigrants argue that it's safer to have more drivers trained and insured, and opponents argue that it's a system rife with fraud.Immigrant rights advocates have defended the current practice. It was intended to offer undocumented immigrants "the opportunity to buy insurance, register their vehicles and have a driving record available to all law enforcement," said Marcela Diaz of Somos Un Pueblo Unido (We Are a United People).Opinion: DREAMers are pushing their luckBut critics say the practice is turning New Mexico into a magnet for fraud."Currently, illegal immigrants from all over the country come to New Mexico to obtain a license without having the intention of staying here," Demesia Padilla, the state's secretary of taxation and revenue, said in 2011.The state's Taxation and Revenue department has prosecuted a number of people, including Rosa Pardo-Marrufo, who confessed in 2009 to charging $700 to people who wanted to use her address in fraudulent applications.More from usLaGuardia runway reopens after Delta flight skids off itPolicing for profit: How Ferguson's fines violated rights of African-AmericansCould this prevent airplane accidents on the runway?Powered by Livefyre

This past April the Formaggio Wine Team took a pleasant trip to visit Sergio Mottura's estate on our way to VinItaly 2014. We flew into Rome's Fiumicino airport early in the morning and drove north-east towards Umbria. We eventually split off from the crazy A1 autostrada onto small, one-lane roads. Just along the northern border of Lazio we reached the medieval hamlet of Civitella d'Agliano, and the home, hotel and cantina of the Mottura family.

Does minimal plumping, but gives a pretty pink shimmery color. Good lipstick for only $8. Nothing special though. Funky packaging and nice to own, but wouldn't repurchase.
I give this a 3 only because the color was a nice shade of shimmery pink,but this was really drying on my lips and hd a weird soapy taste.I bought it mainly because it was only $8 and I liked a lot of other hard candy lipsticks but this one is not one i will be repurchasing.

Pictures appear to show RAF man posing with dead Taliban fighter
Photographs have emerged which appear to show at least one UK serviceman posing with a dead Taliban fighter.
The graphic pictures were taken in the aftermath of an attack by insurgents on Camp Bastion, the main British base in Afghanistan, in 2012.
The images first appeared on website Live Leak. The Ministry of Defence said they came to its attention last month and military police were investigating.
Two RAF Regiment members have already been withdrawn from frontline duties.
Two US marines were killed in the September 2012 attack on Camp Bastion, in Helmand province.
A number of British soldiers were injured and six US Harrier jets were destroyed.
The photographs show some of the damage caused, but two appear to show at least one member of the RAF Regiment giving a thumbs-up sign, kneeling next to the bloodied body of a dead insurgent.
It is not clear whether the two images show the same serviceman.
It is believed the serviceman, or servicemen, are from 51 Squadron RAF Regiment. The squadron, based in Moray, was involved in defending Camp Bastion during the attack.
Defence sources say there is no excuse for such behaviour, which appears to break military rules.
An RAF spokesman said it had a "zero-tolerance policy on the mistreatment of deceased enemy personnel" and this case was being treated "extremely seriously".
There can be few excuses for this kind of behaviour.
The members of the RAF Regiment involved were not even supposed to take photos, let alone pose with the dead body of an insurgent killed while giving the thumbs up sign.
They clearly broke their own military rules, and it's possible they could face the far more serious charge of contravening the Geneva Conventions.
Most in the military will agree that taking such "trophy" photographs is offensive and wrong. But a crime?
These soldiers' actions were taken after a fierce firefight with the Taliban in which two US marines were killed and several of their own comrades wounded.
The case of Marine A - who killed a wounded insurgent and was then convicted of murder - has shown that some are willing to forget mistakes made in the "heat of battle" or " the fog of war".
This is another incident likely to spark very different emotions - offensive to many but perhaps even understandable to some.
"We can confirm that the incident is currently subject to an ongoing RAF Police investigation and therefore, it would be inappropriate to comment further at this time," he added.
BBC defence correspondent Jonathan Beale said the situation was "deeply embarrassing" for the UK military but it was "not on the same scale" as the abuse of prisoners by US personnel at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, which came to light in 2004.
He also said it was not "on the same scale" as the killing of an injured insurgent in Afghanistan by a Royal Marine, Sergeant Alexander Blackman, in 2011.
But he said the military must take such incidents "very seriously" and he expected "some kind of punishment" for the individuals involved.
The RAF Regiment is the ground fighting force of the Royal Air Force.
A report by MPs published last month said British commanders must "bear a degree of responsibility" for the failure to prevent the 2012 raid on Camp Bastion.
Prince Harry was serving at the camp as a member of the Army Air Corps at the time of the attack.

Did you know the average office worker takes just 3,000 steps a day? It's no wonder so many of us aren't as fit as we'd like to be. It's pretty hard to get in shape sitting down all day – so why not challenge yourself and your co-workers to take 10,000 steps a day for the whole month of September.

US-based Merck & Co. is conducting a trial of a new AIDS vaccine with 175 sex workers in the Dominican Republic.
The prostitutes, who will spend much of the next four years traveling to Santo Domingo for injections and checkups, were recruited from brothels across the country. They are among some 3,000 people in eight countries testing the experimental vaccine – a combination of deactivated cold viruses and synthetically produced HIV genes meant to train the body to destroy infected cells.Link to AP report. (thanks, Remo)Any long-term risks will take years to discover, but once doctors explained there was no way to contract the disease from the vaccine, they found plenty of volunteers at Adams' brothel in Las Guaranas, a town of dirt streets and low-slung houses surrounded by rice fields about 75 miles (120 kilometers) north of Santo Domingo.

Aortic Coarctation—Adult
The aorta is the main artery carrying oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body. Aortic coarctation is the narrowing of the aorta which slows or blocks the blood flow. It is often associated with other heart and vascular conditions, like abnormal heart valves or blood vessel outpouching. These conditions carry a risk of additional future problems.
Heart and Main Vessels |
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc. |
Aortic coarctation is a congenital heart defect, which means it is present at birth. It occurs because of a problem with the development of the aorta while the fetus in the womb.
Risk Factors
Factors that increase your chances of having aortic coarctation include:
- Gender: male
- Turner's syndrome
- Family history of aortic coarctation
Aortic coarctation may or may not have symptoms. Symptoms may include:
- Cold legs and feet
- Shortness of breath, especially with exercise
- Lightheadedness
- Leg cramps after exercise
- Headaches
- Fatigue
- Nosebleeds
- Fainting
- Chest pain
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Images may be taken of your internal structures. This can be done with:
- Chest x-ray
- Magnetic resonance imaging
- Computerized tomography (CT) scan
- Echocardiogram
- Cardiac catheterization
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Treatment options include the following:
The narrow section of the aorta can be removed surgically. The two healthy ends can be reconnected.
Balloon Angioplasty
A tiny catheter tube is inserted into a blood vessel in the leg and threaded up to the aorta. There, a balloon is inflated to expand the narrow area. A stent may be placed to keep the area open.

Since aortic coarctation is a congenital defect, it cannot be prevented.

Plasma exchange is the most important treatment for all patients except young children whose illness follows diarrhea; they usually get well without plasma exchange. It is done with a machine that removes patient plasma and replaces it with fresh plasma, similar to the machines used for routine blood donations. The reason for the effectiveness of plasma exchange, like the cause of the disease, is not known. The exchange may remove a harmful substance from the patient and provide an essential new substance in the fresh plasma. Plasma exchange has risk. A catheter needs to be inserted into one of the large veins of the shoulder, neck, or groin area. That creates a risk for serious infection. Allergic reactions to the infused plasma are common; most reactions cause only hives, but some can also cause breathing problems.
We continue plasma exchange daily until the platelet count is normal. Then we may decrease treatments to every other day, or we may stop. However if the TTP-HUS is still active, the platelet count will fall again and daily treatments must be resumed. Patients usually get better in several days and then need one to three weeks of treatment to make sure that they stay well. Other treatments, such as steroids and related medicines, are sometimes also used to help patients recover more quickly.

Repeat Offender with Gang Ties Arrested with Semi-Automatic Pistol
KRISTOPHER LEE CHILES, 23, of Auburn, Washington, was sentenced today in U.S. District Court in Seattle to 46 months in prison and three years of supervised release for being a Felon in Possession of a Firearm. CHILES was arrested March 26, 2008, by Federal Way Police because of probation violations. CHILES, who as a convicted felon prohibited from possessing a firearm, was armed with a Ruger 9mm semi-automatic pistol. At sentencing Chief U.S. District Judge Robert S. Lasnik said, "One thing that the community has suffered with is gang shootings... causing the deaths of young black men at alarming rates. People are killing each other in malls and on the street. The message has to go out that if you are carrying a loaded gun, and you have a criminal record, you will be punished for it."
According to records filed in the case, CHILES has prior convictions for Trafficking in Stolen Property (2004), Attempted Theft (2005), and Delivery of Cocaine (2006). CHILES was on probation on the drug charge, when a warrant was issued for his arrest for violating the terms of his probation. Federal Way Police officers arrested him outside his Auburn apartment with the gun tucked in the waistband of his pants. CHILES admitted being a member of a street gang and was wearing gang related clothing.
CHILES was indicted on June 8, 2008, and pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in Seattle on October 2, 2008.
CHILES was prosecuted as part of the Project Safe Neighborhoods program. Unveiled by President George W. Bush in May 2001, Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), is a comprehensive and strategic approach to gun law enforcement. PSN is a nationwide commitment to reduce gun crime in America by networking both new and existing local programs that target gun crime and then providing them with the resources and tools they need to succeed. Implementation at the local level -- in this case, in King County-- has fostered close partnerships between federal, state and local prosecutors and law enforcement.
The case was investigated by the Federal Way Police Department, Washington State Department of Corrections, FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives (ATF).
The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney William H. Redkey, Jr.
For additional information please contact Emily Langlie, Public Affairs Officer for the United States Attorney's Office, at (206) 553-4110.

Anatomy of a mistranslation.
You know, aside from potentially re-starting the Cold War.
Abu-Assad has made not one, but two Oscar-nominated films.
In Israel, the Hula Valley is a way station for birds in their migration through war-torn lands.
Think 1984 meets James Bond.
In case you were wondering WTF that was all about, we've put together a short explainer.
As always, the situation in the Middle East is more complicated than it seems.
As the interim nuclear deal goes into effect, two countries famously high on each other's enemies list are cooperating as never before.
There were, on the other hand, quite a lot of reporters present.
Fallen former prime minister Ariel Sharon as well known for his eating habits as his battlefield tactics, and GlobalPost has one of his favorite restaurant's secret recipes.
Sharon, who died Saturday at 85, was almost dismissed for insubordination during the 1973 Yom Kippur War, which he is now credited with winning.
Will it work better than the US-Mexico fence?
Sure, the cloud has benefits. But there are also plenty of security concerns. Experts in Israel explain the tradeoff.
Across the political spectrum, Israeli ministers condemned the Geneva deal.
The only foreign posting of the United States National Guard Bureau is at the headquarters of Israel's Home Front Command. The relationship, and the exclusivity, is mutual.
Analysis: Two old allies are squabbling over how to achieve an urgent, shared goal.
The original 'City on a Hill.'
News Analysis: Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu is irate. An agreement must be near.
The examination's results only 'moderately support' the claim that the Palestinian leader was poisoned, Swiss scientists say.
While maintaining a public wall of silence, Israel is likely pleased to have an American official confirm its action in Syria.
