| Spanish prostitutes wear safety vests to avoid fines Posted: A Spanish mayor says roadside prostitutes working outside his northeastern town have begun wearing reflective vests to avoid police fines. Jose Maria Bea said some 10 prostitutes at a highway roundabout near Els Alamus began donning the phosphorescent green garments this month after police started fining them euro40 ($56). That's the amount anyone in Spain can be fined for standing or walking along a highway, such as during a vehicle breakdown, for not wearing the high-visibility vest.

| Sanctuary in custody fight over elephant Posted: They're fighting like elephants. A territorial feud that sounds like something out of the African savannah has erupted in rural Tennessee between Carol Buckley, one of the world's leading authorities on elephant rehabilitation, and the sanctuary she co-founded 15 years ago. This month, Ms Buckley, 56, filed a lawsuit against the Elephant Sanctuary after its board fired her as president and chief executive, ejected her from her home on sanctuary grounds and barred her from visiting Tarra, the 36-year-old Asian elephant she raised from a calf. The Elephant Sanctuary is the country's first natural-habitat refuge for aging elephants — many bearing scars from lives spent living and performing in captivity — where they roam free, perhaps reclaiming part of their true elephant nature. It is a model for havens worldwide, and the dispute has rocked the normally tame world of animal conservation.
