SAN AGUSTIN, El Salvador (Reuters) - Friends and relatives of Cruz Hernandez gathered on Wednesday to celebrate her 128th birthday, a milestone that might make her the world's oldest person.

Labour MSP has called for contraception to be added to methadone to prevent addicts having children. Greenock MSP Duncan McNeil was speaking at Holyrood during a debate on the harm caused to families by drugs.

A Scottish Executive spokesman told the BBC Scotland news website: "We have absolutely no plans to do this." Mr McNeil's call follows the death last year of two-year-old Derek Doran who drank methadone belonging to his parents.

Indonesia's vice president has ordered the evacuation of some 17,000 people living near a volcano, which has been threatening to erupt for weeks. Jusuf Kalla's order came as he toured the slopes of Mount Merapi on the island of Java. The volcano has recently been spewing more lava and smoke, and scientists say that an eruption is imminent. But the threat level has not been raised to the highest alert - a move which would trigger a mass evacuation. "I ask that immediate safety steps are taken, beginning by taking at least 50% of the total population from the danger zone," Mr Kalla was quoted as saying by Indonesia's state-run Antara news agency. Mr Kalla …

Robbie Williams has met up with his former Take That bandmates in an emotional reunion at a hotel bar. The singer invited the boys for a drink after their sold-out Wembley performance, at the luxury Conrad Hotel in west London. However, when they were delayed by swarms of fans asking for autographs, Williams looked a bit uncomfortable. A source told The Sun: “Robbie looked a bit nervous waiting for the boys. He was sat on his own at the bar in a black hoody." As soon as they arrived though, Robbie got up and greeted Gary Barlow with a big hug. The source added: “They looked quite emotional. They haven’t all been in a room all together for almost 11 years - it was…

Alan Shearer came on to score a penalty with the final kick of the game as Newcastle beat Celtic 3-2 in his testimonial match at St James' Park. A knee injury suffered three weeks ago prevented the 35-year-old playing a proper role, but he kicked the first and last balls of the match. "There was more than just a tear in my eye when I was walking around. I defy anyone not to have a tear," he said. "The fans have been just incredible. Where else do you get that?" Albert Luque opened the scoring in the game before Shaun Maloney's penalty and a John Hartson header put Celtic ahead. A Paul Lawson own-goal made it 2-2 before Shearer's scoring finale. Newca…

The new take is scheduled to hit the airwaves today. It's called "Nuestro Himno" -- "Our Anthem" -- and it was recorded over the past week by Latin pop stars including Ivy Queen, Gloria Trevi, Carlos Ponce, Tito "El Bambino," Olga Tañon and the group Ave…

I have had some people become very upset with me because I am "picking" on Bill Clinton. I sincerely apologize - I really do. Now, since I have apologized, I would like everyone who "picked" on Dan Quayle to also apologize :-) Be sure to also check out Al Gore quotes AND Bill Clinton's fantasies. (no, not that kind of fantasy - it's all G rated) WASHINGTON, Nov. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- When asked what's wrong with letting local school districts decide how best to spend federal education dollars, President Clinton replied, "because it's not their money" Once again, Bill knows how to spend other people's money better than they do. At a press conference July 21, 1999, Bill…

The survey also revealed that two-thirds of Britons thought drinking was a key contributor to the problem. Researchers said it was a "wake-up call" and that increased access to alcohol, through new 24-hour drinking laws, could not be the answer. Yob capital: Britain is perceived to have the worst rate of anti-social behaviour in Europe The survey found 76 per cent questioned in France, Germany, Britain, Italy, the Netherlands and Spain believed Britain had a "big or moderate problem" with…

:shocked2: Tottenham have written to the Premier League to ask if they can replay Sunday's game against West Ham. Ten Tottenham players were hit by food poisoning in the build-up to the game and they went on to lose it 2-1. Combined with Arsenal's 4-2 victory over Wigan on the same day, it meant that Spurs finished fifth in the league and outside the Champions League spots. Chairman Daniel Levy wrote the letter to Premier League chairman Dave Richards on Tuesday. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/t/tottenham_hotspur/4755491.stm
