Was Teri Hatcher the victim of a former employee?

?

By Natalie Finn, E! Online

Is Teri Hatcher a hacking victim, too ?!

The "Desperate Housewives" star has sued a former employee, claiming the woman copied thousands of emails from Hatcher's computer.

And this plot line is worthy of any nighttime soap. Jennifer Glassman, the ex-staffer, had already sued Hatcher for supposedly offering her a partnership at her production company and then unceremoniously firing her a bit later after running her ragged.

But what sort of stuff could Glassman find out about her then-boss by reading emails her computer contained?

Hatcher claims, in court documents filed March 7 and obtained by E! News, that those letters contained details about her health and personal relationships, as well as work-related emails that detailed different opportunities she was considering beyond "Desperate Housewives."

The show, which has been overshadowed the last few weeks by the almost-over legal battle between former star Nicollette Sheridan and ABC Entertainment (and Marc Cherry, before the judge dismissed Sheridan's battery charge against him), signs off May 13 after eight seasons.

Hatcher's complaint states that Glassman came to work for her ISBE Productions in 2006 as a contracted consultant and Disney opted to bring her on exclusively to work for Hatcher's company the following year -- which, the suit states, required Glassman to sign a confidentiality agreement.

The actress maintains that Glassman resigned from her position in February 2010, requesting that she get a severance package and maintain "only a personal relationship and not a business relationship" with Hatcher.

Bolivia defends coca consumption as age-old tradition

VIENNA (Reuters) - Bolivian President Evo Morales defended Bolivians' right to chew coca leaves, the main ingredient of cocaine, on Monday, saying it was a tradition going back thousands of years and the world's No. 3 cocaine producer was working to fight drug trafficking.

The coca leaf was declared an illegal narcotic in the 1961 U.N. Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, along with cocaine, heroin, opium and morphine and a host of chemical drugs.

Bolivia has withdrawn from the convention but hopes to re-accede with a reservation recognizing coca chewing.

Morales, a former coca leaf farmer, told a United Nations' anti-drugs meeting in Vienna on Monday that chewing coca leaves was an "ancestral right" for Bolivians.

"We are not drug addicts when we consume the coca leaf. The coca leaf is not cocaine, we have to get rid of this misconception," he said, holding up a coca leaf during a speech that ended with applause from the hall.

"This is a millennia-old tradition in Bolivia and we would hope that you will understand that coca leaf producers are not drug dealers."

Bolivia, the biggest cocaine producer after Peru and Colombia, has been trying to promote coca's health benefits and develop legal uses for coca leaves.

Coca is the raw material for making cocaine but Bolivians have chewed the leaves for centuries as a mild stimulant that reduces hunger and altitude sickness.

Morales has asked the United Nations to decriminalize the practice.

"We would hope that those who are present in this room will recognize that consumption of the coca leaf ... is essentially for positive purposes and will support us," he told the meeting in comments translated from Spanish to English.

"We are very much aware of the damage that can be done by cocaine and we are working against drug trafficking ... but we want the recognition of these ancestral rights."

He showed participants at the meeting marmalade, tea and other products made with coca to back up his assertion that the leaf is not dangerous and can have beneficial uses.

Earlier, Yury Fedotov, head of the U.N. Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) said illegal drugs represented a "trans-national threat of extraordinary proportions" as he opened the week-long Commission on Narcotic Drugs meeting in the Austrian capital. Progress on fighting the production of illegal drugs had been limited, he said.

"Have we achieved results? Yes, but only in some areas," Fedotov told participants in a speech.

"Over the last decade, coca cultivation has decreased by one third, opium poppy cultivation has also declined by 15 percent, while overall opium production is still increasing."

U.S. SEES BOLIVIA DRUGS FAILURE

Earlier this month, the U.S. Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs said Bolivia had failed "demonstrably to make sufficient efforts to meet its obligations under international counter-narcotics agreements".

"Taken as a whole, eradication and interdiction results have not been adequate to compete with the rising drug trends that have brought Bolivia back to high coca cultivation and cocaine production levels," it said.

Bolivia and the United States agreed late last year to patch up their differences and restore full diplomatic ties three years after the Andean nation's leftist president threw out the American ambassador and Drug Enforcement Administration agents.

However, Bolivia said it would not let U.S. anti-drug agents return even as government officials work with Washington on a plan to fight the narcotics trade.

Viota ICS tablet has 9.7-inch IPS display and costs $120 wholesale, we go hands-on (video)

It's no surprise that notebooks, Ultrabooks and tablets were pretty much the flavors of the day here at CeBIT, and we've already picked out a few choice selections. So, we're bringing you a second OEM Android tablet, but we liked the sound of it so much, we just had to give it a try. Chinese manufacturers certainly seem to be embracing the 9.7-inch form-factor, and that's what we have here. That translates to a 1024 x 768-pixel display, which benefits from in-plane switching (IPS) for improved viewing angles. Sadly, it's another absolute fingerprint magnet, so you'll need to keep your cloth handy or learn to live with it. We barely handled it at all, and we'd already given the feds enough to catch us several times over.

The innards are pretty modest, with a "Boxchip" A10 1.5GHz processor, 512MB of RAM and 4 gigs of internal memory, but it seemed to run just fine. We were handling an engineering sample at the show, which meant there were a few visual blemishes, but reps promised that they won't find their way into production versions. Unlike other budget (and some not-so-budget) slabs, this one has a 2-megapixel front-facing camera, and a relatively impressive 5-megapixel shooter around the back, supported by a 6,000mAh battery -- which the makers promise provides up to 8 hours of use. Getting out on to the internet can be done via WiFI (802.11b/g/n), or over 3G by popping in a SIM. The all-plastic finish has a few quirks, like the power button sitting next to the camera, but it doesn't look all-together bad given what you're paying -- well, what OEMs will be paying, at least, considering that this tab won't be shipping directly to consumers. As always, we took it for a quick spin, which you can see in the video just after the break.
