BERLIN: German Chancellor Angela Merkel was due to speak at an awards ceremony on Wednesday honouring a Danish cartoonist whose caricature of the Prophet Mohammed sparked sometimes violent protests by Muslims five years ago.
The 75-year-old cartoonist Kurt Westergaard, whose drawings of Mohammed that offended Muslims worldwide first appeared in Danish paper Jyllands-Posten in late 2005, will receive a prize on Wednesday evening at a conference on freedom of the press.
At a time of fierce debate in Germany over disparaging remarks about Muslim immigrants made by a central bank member, some media said the centre-right chancellor was taking a risk by honouring a man whom many Muslims believe insulted their faith.
“By having her photo taken next to Kurt Westergaard, Merkel is taking a huge risk,” wrote the conservative daily Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung ahead of

Business Insider – Debrahlee Lorenzana is filing a lawsuit against Citibank because they fired her, she says, for the strangest reason: she’s too hot. She’s 5?5”, 125 pounds and well, you’ve seen her photo. “Where I’m from,” she told the Village Voice, “women dress up—like put on makeup and do their nails—to go to the supermarket… I was raised very Latin. We’re feminine. A woman in Puerto Rico takes care of herself.” Her bosses told her that “as a result of the shape of her figure, such clothes were purportedly ‘too distracting’ for her male colleagues and supervisors to bear,” she says. [Her two male] managers gave her a list of clothing items she would not be allowed to wear: turtlenecks, pencil skirts, and fitted suits. And three-inch heels. From the Village Voice: “As a result of her tall stature, coupled with her curvaceous figure,” her suit says, Lorenzana was told “she should not wear classic high-heeled business shoes, as this purportedly drew attention to her body in a manner that was upsetting to her easily distracted male managers.”As soon as Debrahlee started working at the Citibank branch in the Chrysler Building, she says, everyone there focused on her appearance. She’s working together a lawsuit to charge the bank for creating a sexually discriminatory environment with a lawyer, Jack Tuckner, who agrees that she’s smoking hot, but thinks Debarah’s case should stand up well with a jury. “It’s like saying that we can’t think anymore ’cause our penises are standing up—and we cannot think about you except in a sexual manner—and we can’t look at you without wanting to have sexual intercourse with you. And it’s up to you, gorgeous woman, to lessen your appeal so that we can focus!”

Alicia Keys Baby Bump? Alicia Seems Pregnant – Recent rumors have stated that Alicia Keys is pregnant. As of right now, they are indeed just rumors as there has been no confirmation from any sources, and the pictures that have surfaced could have been doctored or shot from a misleading angle.
The most recent picture, which shows Keys singing from a side angle with a bump in the right area on her body lead some to believe that she was pregnant, could have easily been taken when she was inhaling deep before singing, giving it the appearance that she had put on a little extra weight toward the middle of her body. Keys has not commented on the photo, and still the rumors persist.Lately Alicia has been seen with a baby bump in her latest concerts. The bump didn’t seem like a normal tummy and many people were suspicious that she might be pregnant. Well the news has been confirmed that she is indeed pregnant. She has been with Swizz Beatz for a long time and it is confirmed that the child is Beatz’s.
Beatz already has two children from his previous marriage and met Alicia when he was going through the divorce with his previous wife.

Pakistan blocks YouTube and Wikipedia after Facebook
The Pakistani government blocked access to YouTube on Thursday because of “sacrilegious” content on the video-sharing website, signaling a growing Internet crackdown against sites deemed offensive to the country’s majority Muslim population.
The move against YouTube came a day after the government blocked access to Facebook amid anger over a page on the social networking site that encourages users to post images of Islam’s Prophet Muhammad. The page sparked criticism because Islam prohibits any images of the prophet.
The Pakistan Telecommunications Authority did not point to specific material on YouTube that prompted it to block the site, only citing “growing sacrilegious contents.” The government took action against both Facebook and YouTube after it failed to persuade the websites to remove the “derogatory material,” the regulatory body said in a statement.
It welcomed representatives from the two websites to contact the Pakistani government to resolve the dispute in a way that “ensures religious harmony and respect.”
The regulatory body said it has blocked more than 450 Internet links containing offensive material, but it is unclear how many of the links were blocked in the last two days. Access to the online encyclopedia site Wikipedia and the photo sharing site Flickr also was restricted Thursday.
The government blocked Facebook on Wednesday after a group of Islamic lawyers won a court order requiring officials to restrict access to the site until May 31. It was unclear if the ban against YouTube would also be temporary.
Dozens of members of the student wing of Jamaat-e-Islami, protested in Islamabad for a second day running, calling for a permanent boycott of Facebook and supporting a government ban of the website. The protestors originally planned to march on the US embassy, but riot police armed with shields and batons prevented the crowd from moving towards the heavily guarded diplomatic enclave and they dispersed.
Several hundred students also demonstrated in the central city of Multan, where they set alight a US flag and temporarily blocked a road, calling for a blanket ban on Facebook before dispersing peacefully.
Social and religious organisations, students, journalists and NGOs in Sialkot also announced to observe Friday as a Protest Day against Facebook for publishing blasphemous caricatures against the Holy Prophet (PBUH).
They also called for protest rallies to be held in various parts of the city, seeking a permanent ban on Facebook in Pakistan by the government.
Protests have been taking place across the country to condemn the hosting of offensive caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) on Facebook. To view pictures of the anti-Facebook protests

Jonathan Livingston Seagull Inspires Justin Bieber
The book Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach was the inspiration of Justin Bieber when he had his tattoo done. Remember this photo of him with his tattoo exposed?
Jonathan Livingston Seagull Book Review
“Most gulls don’t bother to learn more than the simplest facts of flight–how to get from shore to food and back again,” writes author Richard Bach in this allegory about a unique bird named Jonathan Livingston Seagull. “For most gulls it is not flying that matters, but eating. For this gull, though, it was not eating that mattered, but flight.” Flight is indeed the metaphor that makes the story soar. Ultimately this is a fable about the importance of seeking a higher purpose in life, even if your flock, tribe, or neighborhood finds your ambition threatening. (At one point our beloved gull is even banished from his flock.) By not compromising his higher vision, Jonathan gets the ultimate payoff: transcendence. Ultimately, he learns the meaning of love and kindness,
The book is about a seagull that is ostracized by his flock, but finds a higher (literally) meaning in free-flying non-comformity. It was a perfect novel for those heady days when American kids were rebelling — and looking for spiritual inspiration — and society’s norms were being challenged. And I do recall enjoying the book as a quick summer read. (With “Animal Farm” and “Life of Pi,” it’s also one of the most well-known animal-oriented allegories,

Aiyana Jones, 7 year old case
The case of 7-year-old Aiyana Jones shooting death by a Detroit Michigan Police Special Response Team officer is being spun in so many ways that each news report discussing it reads differently and most of these don’t appear as though they are being very honest about it. So I thought it made sense to clear things up as to why this case is in our National Police Misconduct News Feed. Here’s what we know so far based on information culled from multiple sources…
At 12:40am on 05/16/2010 the Detroit Michigan Special Response Team entered a duplex to serve an arrest warrant on a suspect in a homicide case who was living in the upstairs unit. The police announced, tossed a flash-bang grenade into one of the windows of the duplex, and then entered into both the upstairs and downstairs rental units of the duplex.

Police say that their warrant applied to both units in the duplex, even though the suspect did not live in the lower unit where another family lived. When the lower unit was entered an officer alleged he made physical contact with a 46-year-old woman who was Aiyana’s grandmother. At this point the officer discharged his weapon and 7-year-old Aiyana was fatally injured with a gunshot wound to the neck by an unspecified type of firearm on the nearby couch where she had been sleeping prior to the intrusion.
Assistant Chief Ralph Godbee said at a news conference Sunday that Aiyana Jones was hit in the neck by a single bullet and died at a hospital.
“This is any parent’s worst nightmare. It also is any police officer’s worst nightmare,” Godbee said.
Godbee said officers with the department’s Special Response Team set off a flash grenade as they entered the home with their guns drawn about 12:40 a.m. Sunday with a warrant to look for a suspect in the Friday slaying of a 17-year-old boy.
Police state that a 46 year old woman, had contact with a police officer and the officer’s gun went off and this precious 7 year old, Aiyana Jones, was at that time struck by the gun fire in her head and neck area. Her grieving father states that his 7 year old baby girl, Aiyana Jones was asleep when police burst in and was throwing flash grenade’s and burnt his baby to death and then shot and killed her.
