3 Letpadaung Taung copper mine protestors suing "President" Thein Sein for pre-dawn attack with white phosphorus -
http://www.irrawaddy.org/archives/28498
Independent labs outside Burma have established it was white phosphorus, victims are still in burn units in a Thai hospital, "inquiry commission" was clearly just a window-dressing move to placate people and put Daw Suu Kyi in a spot simultaneously -
so long as the military government remains in power you can be sure there will be no change. The report is currently collecting dust in some office.

So-called president Thein Sein greeted by big demonstration in Oslo -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stlmTEHegBw
Informal summary and translation:
Slogan - "We meet Thein Sein with shwe pan" -- shwe pan="gold flower"=male genitals.
Interview - "There are no human rights in Burma, there is no constitution. That's why we are demonstrating."
Man with the guitar - famous singer Mun Awng - "This is the same general who imprisoned democracy activists, now spouting 'democracy' and going around visiting."
Congrats Norway-based activists - you speak the Truth.

Kachin delegate describes helicopter gunship attacks by junta and says responsibilty lies with Burmese government.
From VOA - about 27 minutes into the broadcast -
Kachin were attacked with helicopter gunships and rockets, despite Presdt. Thein Sein having said there should be a ceasefire.
If fighting continues a peace agreement is far off.
