For more than three centuries Britain's judges and barristers have proudly sported white horse-hair wigs in court. But now this long tradition has come to an end for civil court judges. As of October 1st, a new dress code has come into force in civil and family hearings. Judges now appear in wigs only in criminal cases. Although some judges and lawyers used to complain about wearing the heavy wigs -- especially in the heat of summer -- many are now lamenting this break with tradition. The move to do without wigs and allow just one type of robe to be worn in court is expected to generate savings of some 250,000 euros per year.

The military conflict between Georgia and Russia this past August has raisedfears in Scandinavia. In Sweden, and Finland too, many are asking whether they should now become members of NATO. However, even after the conflict in the Caucasus, the majority of Finns still don't want to join the military alliance. Many are worried about how the Russians would react. Russia is an important trading partner for Finland and the countries have close ties. We travel to Hamina, a garrison town in southern Finland, to find out what people there think.

In the wake of England's flattering win over Kazakhstan, one fact remains: Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard just don't work together. Get over itGerrard and Lampard's latest lesson in mediocrity must be learned by CapelloIn the wake of England's flattering win over Kazakhstan, one fact remains: Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard just don't work together.Fabio Capello may like his sponsored Zeroh+ glasses but, as Michael Owen would tell you, in his day job he does not seem to care for designer goods. Or so we thought. One of the most appealing aspects of Capello's appointment was the assumption that he would have no time for England's so-called galacticos, a particular relief given Steve McClaren's reductive and cringeworthy mateyness towards the like of "Stevie G" and "Lamps".Yet it seems that Capello is as much in thrall to those two as the rest of the world coaching fraternity has been since they finished second and third in the Ballon d'Or in 2005. While Capello's decision to reinstate the fit-again Gerrard for today's game against Kazakhstan, the most laughably inept 5-1 win you will ever see, was just about explicable, the decision to Play-Doh a formation that had just produced a 4-1 victory in Croatia to accommodate these two charlatans was bewildering. As a consequence England were so limited going forward that, having been cheered on to the pitch in an atmosphere so euphoric that it felt only a naff pop song away from Euro 96, they were booed off at half-time as the vicious circle of offensive witlessness that defines English football kicked in again.It's clear that, if Gerrard and Lampard are to work, it will be in a 4-3-3 formation, as envisaged by Jose Mourinho when he tried to buy Gerrard. But this is unlikely given their limited technical ability and incessant mediocrity at international level and, when it means compromising England's one world-class attacking talent the still criminally underrated Wayne Rooney it is impossible to justify. And when England changed to 4-4-2 in the second half they scored five. Like, duh!Rooney played exquisitely in Croatia just off Emile Heskey; how must he have felt when he was shunted to an inside-left role to make room for inferior players. It meant that, at times, he was 30 yards from Emile Heskey and even further from Theo Walcott, with whom he had linked so encouragingly in last month's victory. In the first half, the ITV commentator David Pleat even called Rooney "Mr Versatility", which is a wretched indictment of what this natural-born No10 has become.

Currently Romania's capital seems to be one enormous building site. Romania's construction industry expects turnover to increase by as much as 30 percent in 2008, to some 13 billion euros. After years of neglect, the country is modernising is infrastructure -- streets are being widened and bridges rebuilt. But demand for new homes and commercial properties is growing as well. Prices have risen significantly, making some people wonder if the bubble is about to burst in the real estate market.

The global financial crisis may actually lead to the rich countries to give up their targets for reducing the gases causing the greenhouse effect. This applies to the European Union, which is beginning to use the excuse of the crisis to avoid a more daring plan to cut CO2 emissions in the long term.
