Burn book author gets burnt

Malala Yousufzai, the Pakistani schoolgirl who was shot in the head by the Taliban, is in stable condition after undergoing two successful operations to reconstruct her skull and restore her hearing, the British hospital treating her said yesterday. Doctors tending to the girl, who was attacked for advocating education for girls in Pakistan, said they were “very pleased” with her progress after five hours of skull reconstruction and ear surgery on Saturday at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham. That's good news, but now for something not so good: a 15-year-old boy in Colorado has been arrested for cyber-bulling using Instagram. He is being charged with five counts of third-degree harassment for allegedly downloading photographs of his classmates from Facebook and then uploading them to an anonymous Instagram account with hurtful captions attached. The unnamed young man, a student at Ralston Valley High in Arvada, Colorado, had allegedly created a “burn book” Instagram account and used photographs to harass five of his peers.
