Huffington Post: Extreme Weather Of The Week (PHOTOS) Posted: 06 Jan 2013 10:00 AM PST Extreme weather continues into 2013 in the U.S. Midwest, as last year's prolonged drought remains in several states. Parts of some states have received more than a foot of snow in recent weeks, according to the Associated Press, "But climatologists say it would take at least 8 feet of snow – and likely far more – to return the soil to its pre-drought condition in time for spring planting." The House of Representatives passed a $9.7 billion bill on Friday to pay flood insurance claims from Hurricane Sandy. The Senate -- which approved a $60 billion in Sandy aid pacage in late December -- also passed the partial relief bill. Outside the U.S., Cyclone Dumile slammed the French island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean this week, destroying a highway and damaging the electric network with heavy rain and 110 mile per hour winds. Find images of the damage to Réunion below. Read More... More on Extreme Weather

Huffington Post: Kuwait Twitter User Sentenced To 2 Years In Prison For Insulting Emir Posted: 06 Jan 2013 10:09 AM PST KUWAIT, Jan 6 (Reuters) - A Kuwaiti court sentenced a man to two years in prison for insulting the country's ruler on Twitter, a lawyer following the case said, as the Gulf Arab state cracks down on criticism of the authorities on social media. According to the verdict on Sunday, published by online newspaper Alaan, a tweet written by Rashid Saleh al-Anzi in October "stabbed the rights and powers of the Emir" Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Sabah. Anzi, who has 5,700 Twitter followers, was expected to appeal, the lawyer, who asked not to be named, told Reuters. Kuwait, a U.S. ally and major oil producer, has been taking a firmer line on politically sensitive comments aired on the Internet. In June 2012, a man was sentenced to 10 years in prison after he was convicted of endangering state security by insulting the Prophet Mohammad and the Sunni Muslim rulers of Saudi Arabia and Bahrain on social media. Two months later, authorities detained Sheikh Meshaal al-Malik Al-Sabah, a member of the ruling family, over remarks on Twitter in which he accused authorities of corruption and called for political reform, a rights activist said. While public demonstrations about local issues are common in a state that allows the most dissent in the Gulf, Kuwait has avoided Arab Spring-style mass unrest that toppled three veteran Arab dictators last year. But tensions have intensified between the hand-picked government, in which ruling family members hold the top posts, and the elected parliament and opposition groups.
