Israel likely to ban all porn sites soon

Legislators have approved a bill that would block all porn sites in Israel unless people ask to view it.

The Israeli ministerial committee for legislation unanimously approved the bill, which forces internet companies in the country to censor adult websites by default.

The approval of the bill means that it now moves to the legislator, the Knesset, for approval and passage into law.

Picasso's widow may have hidden artworks from son

A retired electrician who kept nearly 300 Pablo Picasso artworks in his garage for almost 40 years told a French court on Monday (2016-11-01) that the artist's widow may have wanted to keep the works hidden from his son Claude.

Pierre Le Guennec, convicted last year of possessing stolen goods, said after Picasso died in April 1973, his widow had asked him to store 15-17 garbage bags containing the artworks.
