JD(U) has alliance with BJP, not RSS: Nitish Kumar - Economic Times
"JD(U) has a long standing alliance with BJP and not RSS...I stand by what I have said in an interview," he said, referring to his view on a secular person to be projected as the NDA's prime ministerial candidate.
"I did not take name of any individual," he told reporters on the sidelines of his Janata Durbar in reference to his secular NDA prime ministerial candidate demand being read as an attempt to undermine Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi's prime ministerial ambitions.
Apparently seeking to link his secular NDA prime ministerial candidate plank to the foundation of ties between JD(U) and BJP in 1996, Kumar said his party had formed an alliance on the agenda against scrapping of Article 370 of the Constitution and Uniform Civil Code, besides judicial or negotiated settlement of Ayodhya dispute.
JD(U) will not compromise with dilution in any of these core issues vis-a-vis its relations with BJP, he said.
On the ties between JD(U) and BJP in Bihar, Kumar said the two parties had come together under the banner of the NDA in 1999 with a tactical understanding to defeat the then ruling party, he said referring to the RJD-led government in the state that time.
Euro 2012 final sparks Twitter record - Football
Published: 02 Jul 2012 - 16:18:06
Spain's victory in the Euro 2012 football final sparked a new sports-related record for tweets per second, Twitter said.
Sunday's final match resulted in 16.5 million tweets from fans around the world and total global traffic on the platform peaked at 15,358 tweets per second during the fourth goal, a new sports-related record on Twitter, the company said.
Spain defeated Italy in the final 4-0.
Twitter's Andrew Fitzgerald said the company's data charts showed how people followed the tournament on a moment-by-moment basis.
"You can see how often all of the teams were mentioned throughout the tournament and look at how mentions compare for competitors for each match," he said.
"These different perspectives should give you a strong sense of how people reacted during the matches on Twitter. Look, for example, at the big spikes in tweets that tend to occur during goals."
Twitter, which allows its members to post brief comments, links or pictures, claims to have more than 140 million active users, with the largest number being in the United States.
A recent survey found one in seven Americans who goes online uses Twitter and eight percent do so every day.

Occupy protester's tweets must be handed over: judge - Reuters
NEW YORK |
NEW YORK (Reuters) - A New York judge has ordered Twitter to hand over tweets and account information connected with an Occupy Wall Street protester arrested last fall during a march on the Brooklyn Bridge.
Criminal Court Judge Matthew Sciarrino, who is overseeing the hundreds of criminal cases stemming from Occupy-related arrests, rejected the idea that Twitter would violate protester Malcolm Harris' privacy by turning over the information.
"If you post a tweet, just like if you scream it out the window, there is no reasonable expectation of privacy," the judge wrote in his decision. He said he would review the information himself and release relevant portions to both prosecutors and Harris' lawyer.
The Saturday ruling, released on Monday, marks the second time in three months that Sciarrino has rejected an attempt to quash a subpoena in the case.
Prosecutors from the Manhattan district attorney's office have been seeking Harris' tweets from September to December, saying the posts demonstrate he knew police had ordered protesters not to walk on the bridge's roadway.
Defense lawyers for some of the 700 Occupy members arrested during the October 1 march have suggested that police appeared to escort them onto the bridge before taking them into custody.
Twitter spokeswoman Carolyn Penner said the company was disappointed by the ruling and would consider its legal options.
"Twitter's Terms of Service have long made it absolutely clear that its users 'own' their content," she said in an emailed statement. "We continue to have a steadfast commitment to our users and their rights."
In April, Sciarrino found that Harris, a Brooklyn-based writer, lacked standing to fight the subpoena because his information belonged to Twitter. The company then filed its own motion to quash on behalf of Harris.
Twitter's motion indicates a willingness to stand up for the rights of a member, as protesters around the world have used the service to organize their efforts in recent years. In March, a judge ordered Twitter to hand over information about an account police said was indirectly tied to the Occupy Boston movement.
Daniel Alonso, Manhattan's chief assistant district attorney, said in a statement that prosecutors were pleased by the latest ruling and "look forward to Twitter's complying and to moving forward with the trial."
Martin Stolar, Harris' lawyer, said he was considering whether to appeal, saying Sciarrino should not use what he termed "pre-21st century law" to evaluate issues of modern technology.
Sciarrino said the request for data did not violate Harris' privacy rights and that the Stored Communications Act governing disclosure of electronic data protects only private communications.
"The Constitution gives you the right to post, but as numerous people have learned, there are still consequences for your public posts," he said. "What you give to the public belongs to the public. What you keep to yourself belongs only to you."
