@placeholder forces held some 25,000 detainees "without charge or trial," the group said, and 33 people were executed, "some after grossly unfair trials." | LONDON, England (CNN) -- Human rights and freedom of the press in China, the detention of terrorist suspects by the United States and Russia's treatment of political dissent are the focus of scrutiny in Amnesty International's annual report, released Wednesday, which looks at the state of human rights around the world. Amnesty International protestors outside the US Supreme Court in January dressed as Guantanamo Bay detainees. The 398-page report comes 60 years after the United Nations adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and Amnesty says governments still need to act on their promises. "The biggest threat to the future of human rights is the absence of a shared vision and collective leadership," the organization said in a statement.

"But apart from that, Lagos also holds a very special place for Nigerians all over the world.

A new book claims neutral @placeholder allowed the Nazis to use their railways to prensport troops and equipment to and from Norway | By Allan Hall PUBLISHED: 10:35 EST, 5 June 2012 | UPDATED: 10:35 EST, 5 June 2012 Relations between Norway and Sweden are being strained with the publication of a new book, which details how Stockholm aided the Nazis during WW2 as their neighbours fought and lost a decisive battle against the German invaders. Sweden stayed neutral in the war but Norway was among the first conquests of Hitler. Now a new book shows how Sweden let the Germans use its efficient rail network to transport men and materials to the battle of Narvik, where British troops were deployed in a bid to stave off the Nazi hordes.

And is that lipstick she's wearing? Disney was quickly taken to task by many, including the film's writer and co-director Brenda Chapman, who called the makeover a "blatantly sexist marketing move based on money" that strips the character of her place as a "better, stronger role model ... something of substance, not just a pretty face that waits around for romance."

It’s impossible not to avoid the green, yellow and blue colours which decorate this vast country from the bunting in the streets to the paint on the faces of children. On Friday night, there was progress into the last four, thanks to an early strike by Thiago Silva and a delicious free-kick by David Luiz, but there was very little order in evidence, at least not on the pitch. The game was a frantic spectacle where hearts ruled heads, unleashed like a 90-minute sugar-rush. It could have been a runaway home win or quite easily another tear-jerker for the host nation, as Colombia summoned a noble finish.
