More than 30 struggling families are occupying an apartment in Seville in southern Spain that has been empty since it was finished three years ago. The building is one of hundreds of thousands of ghost constructions gathering dust all over Spain that banks and property developers are unable to sell. Most of the occupiers of the flats, which have brand-new wooden floors with sparkling double glazing, have been thrown out of their own homes by landlords or bailiffs after they defaulted on their mortgage or could not pay the rent.

UK Uncut protest targets Deputy PM Nick Clegg's Putney home
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2012/05/2677.jpg
Up to 100 anti-cuts protesters have gathered outside Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg's home in south-west London.
UK Uncut said disabled activists had chained their wheelchairs at both ends of the street in Putney where he lives.
The group, which is staging protest "street parties" in 10 UK cities, said it was targeting Mr Clegg as he was "one of the architects of austerity".
A spokesman for the deputy prime minister has refused to comment on the demonstration.
The cuts are getting personal and so are our protests” - Jean Sandler UK Uncut protesterUK Uncut has said it is targeting high profile people and individuals it believes are avoiding paying tax.
Jean Sandler, 42, a UK Uncut supporter, said: "Nick Clegg is one of the architects of austerity; he's a millionaire and lives in a £1m home.
"The cuts are a political choice of this government and the cabinet of out-of-touch millionaires, they are not necessary.
"These cruel cuts are designed to destroy our public services, the NHS, the welfare state and our future. The cuts are getting personal and so are our protests."
The group said street parties were being held in Bournemouth, Crawley, Derby, Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Nottingham, Sheffield and York
Hyvinkaa shooting: Finland gunman in deadly rampage
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2012/05/2678.jpg
Police recovered a rifle from the roof where the gunfire came from
A gunman fired from the rooftop of a house in a southern Finnish town, killing two people and injuring seven others, the authorities have said.
Police arrested an 18-year-old man suspected of the shootings in Hyvinkaa, 50km (30 miles) north of Helsinki.
A man and a woman, both 18 years old, were killed in the incident. A police officer was among the wounded.
Some of the injured were said to be in a serious condition and have been taken to Helsinki for emergency treatment.
Local media reported that a man in combat fatigues opened fire on crowds in the early hours.
MTV3 channel said the man used a rifle and fled shortly after the incident.
Eyewitnesses spoke of panic as they were shut inside bars and clubs for hours while police searched the area.
Detective Chief Inspector Markku Tuominen said the suspect was arrested several hours later and offered no resistance.
"The man was found with two weapons... including a hunting rifle," he said.
The police have not publicly commented on a possible motive for the crime.
Finland has one of the highest rates of gun ownership in Europe.
However, a series of mass shootings prompted the government to tighten the rules last June.
The police said the Hyvinkaa suspect had no licence for his weapons

Vatican leak inquiry: Pope's butler charged
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2012/05/2681.jpg
The Pope's butler has been charged in connection with the Vatican's inquiry into a series of media leaks.
Vatican magistrates have named 46-year-old Paolo Gabriele as the suspect in their investigation, saying he illegally took confidential documents.
A series of leaks, dubbed Vatileaks, has revealed alleged corruption, mismanagement and internal conflicts.
Last month, Pope Benedict XVI set up a special commission of cardinals to find the source of the confidential memos.
Mr Gabriele is the pope's personal butler and assistant and one of very few laymen to have access to the Pope's private apartments.
Student groups challenge Quebec protest law
https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2012/05/2682.jpg
Quebec student groups have launched a legal challenge against the province's controversial protest law, saying it is unconstitutional.
Two motions were filed in Quebec Superior Court in Montreal on Friday, including a request for the law to be suspended until a ruling is made.
Students have been protesting against a rise in university fees since February.
Bill 78 was designed to curb demonstrations but they have escalated since its passage last week.
A meeting between the government of Quebec Premier Jean Charest and student groups is expected as early as next week.
Environmental and union groups have joined the legal challenge.
On Wednesday night, nearly 700 people were arrested in Montreal and Quebec City under the new law.
Those arrests were part of an estimated 2,500 since the protests began.
The bill requires eight hours notification before public demonstrations, including the route, time and duration of the protest.
It also bans demonstrations within 50m (165ft) of university buildings. Student leaders blocking access to university buildings could be fined as much as $35,000 (£22,000), while student groups face penalties of up to $125,000.
Quebec currently has the lowest tuition rates in Canada, but the government's proposal would raise the fees by 80%, in increments of $254 per year (£160) for seven years.

Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Hong Lei at press conference on May 23
Q: It is reported that the US planned to step up sanctions on companies having trade ties with Iranian oil companies. Will this affect China's oil import from Iran?
A: China has made clear its position many times. I want to reiterate here that China and Iran have open and transparent business cooperation in the economic, trade and energy fields. Relevant cooperation is completely legitimate and justified without violating any UN Security Council resolutions or harming the interests of a third party. China is always against one country's putting its domestic law above international law or imposing unilateral sanctions on a certain country. Even less will it accept such unilateral sanctions to be imposed on a third country.
