Iranian political activists held a "Death to America" conference at the former site of the US embassy in Tehran on Saturday, with prizes awarded to artists for work depicting the United States in a negative light. "There will be a prize for the best idea to mark Death to America," said Haitham Mohammad Hassan, a member of Iranian Hezbollah. "Which will renew the concept of death to America because of the arrogance of America. It will go out clear and fresh live to the public in all its meaning. For as long as the US policies hostile to us and neighbouring countries stay, we will raise this slogan." The organisers, including the Tasnim news agency and the Iranian branch of Hezbollah, are attempting to stake claim to the popular chant, which new president Hassan Rouhani has suggested may be banned as his government attempts to thaw relations between the two countries. As well as patriotic songs and a list of American crimes, speechmakers warned against the duplicity of the US and any attempt to soften Iran's opposition to the nation. Monday marks the 34th anniversary of the 1979 takeover of the US embassy in the capital, which sparked a hostage crisis lasting more than a year. The first place award includes €2,500, while the second and third place won €1,250 and €50 respectively. The final competition results will be announced in two months' time.   Less

A group of US lawmakers demands that judicial officials answer questions about the death of an Internet activist who'd criticized President Obama's "kill list." Eight lawmakers from both the Democratic and Republican parties are asking Attorney General Eric Holder to come clean on why Aaron Swartz killed himself last year. They say Swartz faced an aggressive prosecution. The activist committed suicide in his apartment a year ago. At the time, he was awaiting trial for downloading millions of academic documents from an online database. Swartz was a computer programmer, an internet activist and a hacker who supported freedom of expression. He was a critic of the government's secret process to kill or capture terrorists.   Less

Egypt's anti-coup alliance has called for protests following the sentencing of hundreds of Muslim Brotherhood members to death. The coalition, which is made up of dozens of parties and groups, has urged the Egyptians to flock into Cairo's Liberation, Rabia, and Nahdah squares on Wednesday to protest the verdict. Earlier in the day, a court in the city of Minya ruled that 5-hundred and 29 supporters of ousted president Mohamed Morsi should receive capital punishment. The case is in connection with the killing of a police officer and other acts of violence in the city. The verdict, which was handed only three days after the opening of the case and without the defense being heard, may be appealed.   Less

The watch combines data such as gender, age and lifestyle to calculate the average time until the user's death. Tikker has been developed over the past two years by a team headed by Colting, with the idea that the countdown would motivate people to make the most of their lives. Thus Colting presents it as the 'happiness watch', despite it often being referred to as the 'death watch'. A total of 5,000 units have been pre-ordered so far, and will be shipped by the end of May. The watch will then be available for $79 (€56), in two different colours, black and white.

A woman sentenced to death for being a Christian and “abandoning her Islamic faith” will soon be freed, authorities in Sudan have said. Mariam Ibrahim refused to renounce her Christianity and was sentenced to death by hanging for apostasy. The 27-year-old says she has never considered herself Muslim and was brought up by her Ethiopian Christian mother after her Muslim father left the family. However Sudanese law defines children of Muslim fathers as Muslim. She had also been sentenced to 100 lashes for adultery because the court does not recognize her marriage to husband Daniel Wani. He is a Christian originally from South Sudan, now a US citizen. The death sentence had drawn international condemnation. Sudan has a majority Muslim population and Islamic law has been in force there since the 1980s.   Less
