WASHINGTON (AFP) -Under-pressure Republicanpresidential hopeful Mitt Rom-ney vowed to release his 2010tax return tomottow, seeking toerase the toxic issue beforeFlorida's crucial primary onJanuary 31.

The release of his most re-cent year of tax returns as wellas an estimate for his upcom-ing filings for 2011 may notfully satisfy critics who havedemanded a more completedisclosure going back severalyears.

But it represents a majorshift for Romney, who initiallyrefused to release any informa-tion and then said he would doso only in April.

Romney, thought to beworth between $190 millionand $250 million, has said hepays an effective tax rate ofabout 15 percent, which wouldbe in line with tax laws thatObama has denounced as lop-sidedly favoring the rich.

The tax issue plays rightinto concerns over the mannerin which Romney accrued hismassive wealth and his abilityto relate to working-class peo-ple in an America crawling outof recession with stubbornlyhigh unemployment.

Opponents have tarred theformer Massachusetts gover-nor as a ruthless corporateraider who profited whileworkers lost their jobs, heap-ing scorn on his claim to havehelped create 100,000 jobswhile CEO of Bain Capital.

Romney pitches himself asa successful entrepreneur withthe business acumen to createjobs and turn around an Amer-ican economy that he claimshas been ruined by Obama'spolicies.

The victim'sidentity remains uncertain,while local authorities said hemight have dual German andUS nationality.

Three employees of theDanish Demining Group, anAmerican, a Dane and a So-mali, were kidnapped nearGalkayo airport in October.The town was the scene of vi-olent clashes between rivalclans and political groups inSeptember.

"We have learned that thekidnapping of the foreigner wascarried out by pirates," said Ab-shir Dini Awale, an official inthe Galmudug state cabinet,adding that people who pro-vided him with security hadhelped in the abduction.

"We have sent securityforces to trace them and theyare still following them. Wedon't know how things will bein the end," Awale added.

BRAZIL (AFP)--Brazil's Sil-imed, the third-biggest man-ufacturer of silicon breastimplants in the world, hassuddenly found itself in theeye of a global firestorm.

In this body-obsessed na-tion, where more than 1.5million women have siliconebreast implants, the oncereclusive company now playshost to national and interna-tional journalists.

The Brazilian health min-istry is courting senior com-pany executives to helpreassure a public perturbedby horror stories from theother side of the world and torestore faith in a product thatis very much in demand.

Founded 33 years ago,Silimed was the "first in 1995to put a serial number on itsimplants," Claudio Carvalho,Silimed's production chief,

explained to AFP, consciousof the need to vouch for thesafety of the company's prod-ucts.

The health scare eruptedin France in December, whena French company was ac-cused of using an illegal in-dustrial-grade gel thatinvestigators say has led toabnormally high rupturerates.

Some 300,000 women in65 countries are estimated tohave had implants made bythe now-defunct French firm,PIP, and more than a dozencountries in Europe and LatinAmerica have urged womento have checkups.

"Here we conduct morethan 15 quality control testsbefore packing, from themembrane which gives theshape to the silicone gel con-tent," Carvalho said.

ICELAND -- (AFP) Industrialsalt not intended for humanconsumption has been sold inIceland as food salt for 13years by mistake, Icelandicofficials said this past week.

"The salt is not safe be-cause foreign entities can befound in it, for examplerocks, metals and otherthings that are filtered out oftable salt," Reykjavik HealthProtection Authority officialOskar Isfeld Sigurdsson toldthe daily Frettabladid.

Olgerdin Egill Skalla-grimsson, a wholesale im-porter and beverageproducer, imported the indus-trial salt, which is used to de-ice roads or in chemical

production, from Denmark.It has been used in food

production by dozens of Ice-landic meat producers, fishproducers and bakeries for 13years, Olgerdin said, but notsold directly to consumers.

The bags of salt wereclearly marked as containingindustrial salt, but Olgerdinchief executive Andri ThorGudmundsson said companyemployees did not react.

"We were not aware thatthe salt was not certified forfood production. We knew itwas for industrial use, butthought it was for the food in-dustry," he told Icelandicpublic broadcaster RUV.

"Olgerdin and the compa-nies that used the salt in foodproduction have admittednegligence and mistakes be-cause the salt was not stamped'food grade' and was not certi-fied for use for the food indus-try. Olgerdin apologises forthat mistake," it said in a state-ment issued recently.

BEIJING (AFP) - A man insouthwest China who con-tracted the bird flu virus diedon Sunday, health authoritiessaid, the second human deathfrom the virulent disease in thecountry in just under a month.

The news comes afterneighbouring Vietnam, Cam-bodia and Indonesia also re-ported deaths from avianinfluenza, and after chickenstested positive for the H5N1virus in Hong Kong, prompt-ing a mass cull of birds.

Most human infections arethe result of direct contactwith infected birds, and thevirus does not pass easilyamong humans.

The World Health Organ-ization (WHO) says it hasnever identified a "sustainedhuman-to-human spread" ofthe virus since it re-emergedin 2003.

But according to the HongKong health department, theGuizhou province victim,had not reported any obviousexposure to poultry beforethe onset of symptoms.

Highlighting those fears,the WHO said last month itwas "deeply concerned"about research into whetherH5N1 could be made moretransmissible between hu-mans after mutant strainswere produced in labs.

Two separate researchteams -- one in the Nether-lands and the other in theUnited States -- separatelyfound ways to alter the virusso it could pass easily be-tween mammals.

(AFP) Energy experts believethat seaweed holds enormouspotential as a biofuel alterna-tive to coal and oil, and US-based scientists say they haveunlocked the secret of turningits sugar into energy.

A newly engineered mi-crobe can do the work by me-tabolizing all of the majorsugars in brown seaweed, po-tentially making it a cost-competitive alternative topetroleum fuel, said the re-port in the US journal Sci-ence.

The team at the Berkeley,California-based Bio Archi-tecture Lab engineered aform of E. coli bacteria thatcan digest the seaweed's sug-ars into ethanol, it said.

Unlike other microbes be-fore, researchers found it canattack the primary sugar con-stituent in seaweed, known asalginate.

"Our scientists have engi-neered an enzyme to degrade

and a pathway to metabolizethe alginate, allowing us toutilize all the major sugars inseaweed, said Daniel Trunfio,chief executive at Bio Archi-tecture Lab.

The advance "makes thebiomass an economical feed-stock for the production ofrenewable fuels and chemi-cals," he said.

A company spokesmantold AFP that the lab cur-rently has four aquafarmingsites in Chile where it hopesto "scale up its microbe tech-nology as the next step on thepath to commercialization" inthe next three years.

Seaweed is seen as an ap-pealing option for biofuel be-cause, unlike corn and sugarcane, it does not use arableland and so does not competewith crops grown for food.

Less than three percent ofthe world's coastal waters canproduce enough seaweed toreplace some 60 billion gal-

lons of fossil fuel, accordingto background information inthe article.

At peak production, sea-weed could produce 19,000liters per hectare annually,about twice the level ofethanol productivity fromsugarcane and five timeshigher than the ethanol pro-ductivity from corn.

Funding for the researchcame from the US Depart-ment of Energy's AdvancedResearch Projects Agency, agrant from InnovaChile, andNorwegian oil giant Statoil.

NEW YORK (AFP) - In thebrave new world of MP3players, compact discs aredying, cassettes are StoneAge, and old-fashioned vinylrecords... they're back!

It might seem that nothingshort of a wind-up gramo-

phone could be more out ofplace today than the nostal-gia-laden, crackly-sounding33 and 45 RPM disc.

Yet in his Brooklyn, NewYork, factory, 40-year-oldThomas Bernich churns themout by the tens of thousands,feeding a vinyl revival thathas record decks -- and cashtills -- spinning.

"It's my baby," Bernich saidin his spartan office at Brook-lynphono. "It's growing."

The small plant in a bluecollar neighborhood humswith the sound of machinesand spaghetti-like rows ofpipes delivering ground-upvinyl to presses where thematerial reemerges as shinyalbums etched with near-in-visible, music-filled spirals.

Bernich started on a shoe-string 10 years ago. Now hehas four full-time employeesand two part-time, manufac-turing a quarter of a milliondiscs a year, with plans todouble capacity.

In an age of near-instantmusic downloads and entirelibraries stored in gizmos thesize of a cigarette lighter, thearcane process of makingrecords defies convention.

But the market is vibrant.Alan Bayer, who runs the

online record store vinyl-revinyl.com, said records re-fuse to go the way of thecrumbling cassette tape orpasse CD.

Purists swear that musicsounds better from recordsthan from compressed digitalfiles. Collectors love the huntfor rare, scratch-free record-ings, not to mention the art-filled sleeves.

It's got all the flash of Audi's sexy su-percar, along with the title of World's Fastest Limo.

The street-legal version of the Audi R8 is available with a massive V10 engine that powers thecar from 0-62mph in just 3.9 seconds. The V10 puts out over 500 horsepower and provides a topspeed of 197mph. That same motor will remain in the stretched version, and while the companyhas no official stats on speed, it should have no problem breaking the current limo 0-60mph speedrecord of 6 seconds — held by a Ferrari limo. No word on cost, but it’s assured to be considerablymore than the standard R8 V10’s already outrageous $149,000 sticker price.

we would have the sameamount of money which theMarshall Plan had to rebuildEurope," he said referring tothe big US-backed aid programthat helped Western Europe re-cover after World War II.

"In addition, the EuropeanCommission has about 120 bil-lion euros ($150 billion) of un-spent money in its budgetwhich could go to fightingyouth unemployment. Auster-ity and stabilisation areneeded, but you also have tocreate jobs."

MADRID (AFP) - The Euro-pean Union must do more toboost economic growth andnot focus solely on austerity toslash debt levels to defend theeuro, Spain's new foreign mi -nister said yesterday.

"European institutions havea role to play," Manuel Garcia-Margallo said in his first printinterview since his conserva-tive Popular Party governmentcame to power last month.

"If the European InvestmentBank made twice the effort itmade in the previous decade,

said two previous obstaclesnow look surmountable.

Volkswagen will avoidhaving to pay more than 1.0billion euros in taxes for com-pleting the deal before 2014 bycreating a holding company tobuy and maintain the stake inPorsche, according to the re-port.

VW would also meetPorsche's demands for inde-pendence by signing a contractgiving the sports car makercontrol over its investmentsand models, Spiegel said.

A VW spokesman declinedto comment on the details ofthe report.

BERLIN (AFP) - Europe'sbiggest automaker Volkswagenwill likely this year completeits takeover of luxury car groupPorsche after clearing key hur-dles, according to a Germanmedia report yesterday.

News weekly Der Spiegelwrites in its upcoming issuethat VW, which owns 49.9 per-cent of Porsche, may buy the50.1-percent stake in the ma -nufacturer of the iconic 911 carfor 3.9 billion euros ($5.0 bil-lion) in 2012. The report citedunnamed VW executives.

Porsche has built up mas-sive debts as it looked to seal atie-up with VW and Spiegel

which is representing banksand financial institutions owedmoney by Greece, and theFrench bank BNP Paribasbegan crunch talks withAthens last Wednesday.

The negotiations on cuttingaround 100 billion euros ($129billion) from Greece's massivedebt of more 350 billion euroswere adjourned Friday withboth sides expressing opti-mism about the outcome.

Athens wants an outline ofan accord to be ready by today,when eurozone finance minis-ters are to meet in Brussels,and a full agreement by Janu-ary 30 when the EuropeanUnion will hold a summit.

Francesco Garzarelli wasquoted as saying.

Garzarelli, head of the USbank's macroeconomic re-search section, said that by2014 much of Greece's debtwill be transferred from theprivate sector to eurozone in-stitutions, while a new bal-anced budgets treaty will applyto all member states.

He said the sovereign debtof Greece, Italy and Spain, forexample, would become a debtfor the entire eurozone, dissi-pating the previous threat,adding: "The eurozone will bestabilized."

ATHENS (AFP) - A massivedebt writedown for Greecewill stabilize the eurozone byremoving a threat posed by its"weak link," a strategist withinvestment bank GoldmanSachs said in an interview pub-lished Sunday.

Greece needs a so-calledPSI, or private-sector involve-ment, deal to be ironed out, aswell as a second EU bailout, ifit is to be able to make a debtrepayment of 14.4 billioneuros on March 20.

With those two deals inplace, a "systemic danger inthe eurozone, which comesfrom the weak link, that is,Greece," will be removed,

close the gap on Real Madridat the top of La Liga to justtwo points.

Messi found the target inthe 33rd, 50th and 80th min-utes to take his season's goaltally to 22, one more thanReal's Cristiano Ronaldo.

This was only Barca’sfourth league victory on theirtravels and Messi’s goals alsobrought to an end a poor per-sonal run as of his 19 goalsgoing into the game only onehad come away from home.

Valencia continue tostruggle as they could onlydraw 1-1 in a scrappy gameagainst Osasuna.

But they still hold a five-point lead over Levante.

Mallorca eased their rele-gation fears with a secondhalf Ivan Ramis header giv-ing them a 1-0 win away toRayo Vallecano.

The home side had thebetter of the openings withPiti Luna, Michu Perez andJose Casado all going closein the first half but Ramissnatched the victory for Mal-lorca after jumping highest ata corner after 56 minutes.

Although the scandal costPaterno his job, Penn Statepresident Rodney Ericksonsaid the university mournsPaterno and will honor himfor his contributions to cam-pus life.

"We grieve for the loss ofJoe Paterno, a great manwho made us a greater uni-versity," Erickson said in astatement.

"His dedication to ensur-ing his players were suc-cessful both on the field andin life is legendary and hiscommitment to education isunmatched in college foot-ball. His life, work and gen-erosity will be rememberedalways.

Former US PresidentGeorge H.W. Bush was afriend of Paterno, who en-dorsed his presidential bidat the 1988 Republican Na-tional Convention.

"I was deeply saddenedto hear of the passing of JoePaterno," Bush said. "Hewas an outstanding Ameri-can who was respected notonly on the field of play butin life generally -- and hewas, without a doubt, a trueicon in the world of sports.

"I was proud that he wasa friend of mine."

NFL Films calculatedthat Paterno coached morethan 350 players who wenton to sign NFL contracts,and tributes poured in fromNFL players via social net-working sites on Sunday.

Three-time Super Bowlchampion tight end Shan-non Sharpe, who was in-ducted into the Hall ofFame last year, was amongthose who believed thescandal, and his abruptouster, shortened Paterno'slife.

MELBOURNE (AFP) -Roger Federer handed out amasterclass to Australian teenBernard Tomic as he reachedthe quarter-finals on a day oftears and drama at the Aus-tralian Open Sunday.

While Federer was at hismesmerising best and RafaelNadal also went through,China's Li Na left in floods oftears after she fell victim toan astonishing comeback byhobbling women's championKim Clijsters.

And ear-splitting boosgreeted Tomas Berdych's winover Nicolas Almagro as theCzech player refused toshake hands at the end oftheir stormy match.

Nineteen-year-old Tomic,the great hope of Australiantennis, could only shake hishead in disbelief as Federerdug into his bag of tricks andunleashed his full repertoire

of unreachable drops and aballetic backhand smash.

"I thought I played a reallygood match. I knew I had to,anything else and I wouldn'thave got the job done," saidthe Swiss world numberthree, who stays on course fora grandstand semi-final withNadal.

Nadal, seeking his 11thmajor victory and his secondOpen crown, beat fellowSpanish left-hander FelicianoLopez 6-4, 6-4, 6-2 to reach

the quarter-finals withoutdropping a set.

Nadal will play Berdych inthe quarter-finals while Fed-erer has a testing match-upwith Juan Martin del Potro,his conqueror in the 2009 USOpen final, who beat PhilippKohlschreiber of Germany.

Belgium's Clijsters lookedon the verge of quitting whenshe rolled her left ankle in thefirst set, and despite grittingher teeth and playing on shelooked down and out facingfour match points in the sec-ond-set tiebreak.

But the despairing Li sawClijsters save all four, culmi-nating in a brave drop-and-lob combination -- and theBelgian took the set as theflustered Chinese netted, andthen went long.

"It has to be," said a disbe-lieving Clijsters, when asked

if it was her greatest come-back. "I can't believe I won. Iknew before the match it wasgoing to be a tough match...but I didn't expect this."

The result was a carbon-copy of last year's grippingfinal when Li, as the firstChinese player in a grandslam singles title match, took

the first set but then fellto pieces as Clijsterscame roaring back.

Li gave a testy pressconference which washastily broken up whenthe distraught Chineseplayer dissolved in tearsand fled from the room.

Elsewhere Berdychwas booed mercilessly bythe crowd for refusing to

shake Almagro's hand, claim-ing the Spanish player aimeda ball at his face.

"It's what they (the crowd)think. When somebody wantsto hit you straight to the faceI don't see this as a nice mo-ment," Berdych said, afterwinning three tiebreaks in hisfour-set victory.

"His place in our state'shistory is secure," Pennsylva-

nia governor Tom Corbettsaid after Paterno died fromcomplications from lung can-cer at the age of 85.

life," Corbett said. "As bothman and coach, Joe Paternoconfronted adversities, bothpast and present, with graceand forbearance."

Paterno, who began is PennState coaching career as an as-sistant in 1950 served as theuniversity's head coach for 45years, winning more gamesthan any other top-level UScollegiate coach in history.

He was fired in Novemberfor failing to take more deci-sive action action against for-mer assistant coach JerrySandusky after being toldabout an incident in a lockerroom shower in which San-dusky allegedly molested a10-year-old boy.

Sandusky, facing trial afterbeing accused of more than50 counts of molesting 10boys over an 11-year period,has denied the charges.
