Ecuador's Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino shows a picture of a hidden spy microphone uncovered at the office of Ana Alban, the Ecuadorean ambassador to the United Kingdom, during a news conference in Quito, July 3, 2013.

Assange lives and works in a different room within the embassy. The Foreign Office in London declined to comment immediately on the allegation and Prime Minister David Cameron's spokesman said he did not comment on security issues.

https://teakdoor.com/images/imported/2013/07/704.jpg
At £1,990 or £2,235, the Miimo from Honda (IN257) may change fewer lives but it will be a big change. The company guarantees that its first domestic robot will entirely liberate owners from lawn-mowing drudgery. Unique tricks are slowing to cut long grass more efficiently, coping with slopes of up to 24 degrees without veering or slipping, and blades that bend rather than shatter on hitting something hard.

They’re £20 for three at the show instead of £30.
