Skateboarding priest becomes YouTube hit

A Hungarian Roman Catholic priest has become a YouTube hit with his distinctive method of spreading the word of the Load.
Father Zoltan Lendvai, 45, believes skateboarding can open the way to God for young people.
The video of him in action, Funny Priest Skateboarding, has so far attracted close to 180,000 hits.
Lendvai says he follows the ways of Saint John Bosco, an Italian priest and educator in the 19th century who used games as part of education for youngsters.
"Many times I have felt that this is the way I can bring many people a bit closer to Jesus," he said.
He learned the skills of skateboarding at the age of 14 at school but it was only later, when he served as a priest in northwest Hungary, that he realized the impact his skill could have on young people.

Singapore extends jail term for Swiss graffiti man.

A Singapore court extended a jail term for a Swiss man by two months to seven and maintained an earlier ruling that he receives three strokes of the cane for trespassing and spray-painting graffiti on a train.
The harsher sentence, which reinforced the city-state's low tolerance for even minor crimes, would deter future copycat offenders, Singapore Appeals Court's Judge V.K. Rajah said in the ruling.
"It is behavior which is entirely unacceptable in Singapore, regardless of the artistic merit or lack thereof of the graffiti," the judge said in a written statement.
In June, Oliver Fricker, 32, was sentenced to three strokes of a cane and five months in prison after he pleaded guilty to breaking into a train depot in May and spray-painting the graffiti across two carriages.
