I never heard of this actress, but let me tell ya’ she’s drop dead gorgeous!

As far as her allegations, it looks like maybe the Roman Catholic Church may have some company when it comes to sexual shenanigans.

The Blaze reports that the beautiful Pakistani actress, Veena Malik, has been accused by a Muslim cleric of being immoral for appearing on an Indian reality show called “Big Boss,“ which is like our version of ”Big Brother.” In an appearance with Express News TV, she was confronted by cleric Mufti Abdul Qavi who said that she “disgraced Pakistan, as well as Islam” for appearing on the show (though he admitted to not having watched a single episode of “Big Boss”).

The cleric also said of Malik:
If she does not have pangs of conscience because of what she did, then I would tell her to awaken her conscience. No one in Pakistan can look at her pictures in the presence of their daughters. I don‘t think that her son will like to look at his mother’s picture in the future, in her presence or in the presence of his father or brother.

Malik‘s measured and courageous response turned the cleric’s admonitions to dust. Among many other things, Malik told him, basically, to buzz off: “There are many other things for you to deal with. There are Islamic clerics who rape the children they teach in their mosques, and so much more.”

This is the first I’ve ever heard of these types of allehations going on in Islam.

America’s sweetheart looks nothing but with a big ol’ lump on the right side of her face. Whatever it is it doesn’t look too good.


Daily Mail reports she has made the People Magazine's 50 most beautiful people list twice.

But Sandra Bullock looked less than attractive as she left her home in New York yesterday to run a few errands.

In fact the 46-year-old Oscar winning actress was sporting a rather unusual lump on the right hand side of her face as she made the dash out of her West Village townhouse.




Wearing jeans with a black puffer jacket and a black hat pulled down low over her face, the actress appeared to be trying to go incognito.

The weird looking lump could, however, be due to extra tension in Sandra's face and she appears to be gritting her teeth.

Gritting teeth does produce a lump like that.


This revelation is the talk of Canada. I thank my Canadian readers for paying this blog a visit. I can’t believe the traffic its generating, but eep those visits coming.

Boys will be boys!

But, in the Facebook age this kids can do a lot more than oogle the sexy secretary with the a saucy secret.

Toronto Sun reports that the 14-year-old boy who outed a clerical worker at his school who was moonlighting as a porn star has been suspended and claims his school administration threatened to press criminal charges against him.

QMI Agency has also learned that the boy's mother, who teaches at another school, has been suspended with pay for two days.

The 14-year-old learned the clerical worker's secret when he saw one of her movies. He asked her for an autograph and she refused. The boy then created a Facebook page under her name and uploaded a racy profile picture of the woman in her underwear.

The boy was suspended on Thursday.

"They suspended me for an undetermined period and threatened to press criminal charges against me if I don't take down (the) Facebook page within five days," he said.

But the boy said that he can't close the page because he created it under another name and can no longer access the administration section.

The spokesperson for the boy's school board said that they never threatened any legal action.

"Yes, he was suspended and we will have a meeting with him and his father on Monday," said Louise Boisvert. "But the school never threatened expulsion or to press charges against him."

I bet the boy regrets ever asking Samatha for her autograph.

Why the hell is the United States fighting on behalf of people that want to kill them?

No matter how the Obama regime may want to whitewash the reasoning why the U.S. has entered its 3rd war in the Middle East, the truth of the matter is Obama has been duped to fight for people that will turn around and kill Americans for the favor.

Does this make sense to any sane person?

UK Telegraph reports Abdel-Hakim al-Hasidi, the Libyan rebel leader, has said jihadists who fought against allied troops in Iraq are on the front lines of the battle against Muammar Gaddafi's regime.

In an interview with the Italian newspaper Il Sole 24 Ore, Mr al-Hasidi admitted that he had recruited "around 25" men from the Derna area in eastern Libya to fight against coalition troops in Iraq. Some of them, he said, are "today are on the front lines in Adjabiya".


Mr al-Hasidi insisted his fighters "are patriots and good Muslims, not terrorists," but added that the "members of al-Qaeda are also good Muslims and are fighting against the invader".
His revelations came even as Idriss Deby Itno, Chad's president, said al-Qaeda had managed to pillage military arsenals in the Libyan rebel zone and acquired arms, "including surface-to-air missiles, which were then smuggled into their sanctuaries".


Mr al-Hasidi admitted he had earlier fought against "the foreign invasion" in Afghanistan, before being "captured in 2002 in Peshwar, in Pakistan". He was later handed over to the US, and then held in Libya before being released in 2008.

US and British government sources said Mr al-Hasidi was a member of the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group, or LIFG, which killed dozens of Libyan troops in guerrilla attacks around Derna and Benghazi in 1995 and 1996.

Even though the LIFG is not part of the al-Qaeda organisation, the United States military's West Point academy has said the two share an "increasingly co-operative relationship". In 2007, documents captured by allied forces from the town of Sinjar, showed LIFG emmbers made up the second-largest cohort of foreign fighters in Iraq, after Saudi Arabia.

This is the biggest blunder Obama has ever committed. I suspect he thought that a little carpet bombing will make Ghadafi flee Libya. But this was a miscalculation by one of the most inept presidents in U.S. histpory.

Barack Obama makes Jimmy Carter look like Abraham Lincoln.

Here’s a slice of how inadequate rebel forces are against Ghadafi’s troops

The Blaze reports that during a report aired Wednesday on NBC’s Nightly News, war correspondent Richard Engel offered a glimpse at the rebels’ fight against the forces of Moammar Gadhafi. At the 1:50 mark, you can hear incoming rounds bear down as Engel interviews rebel fighters:

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy



Bottom line, this looks lie it needs to be a bloody war coalition forces want to remove Ghadafi. He is going to embarrass coalition forces by just still being around and claiming victory.


Here’s the news the Obama-media will not report. Col Gaddafi is alive and well and still killing civilians. The inconvenient truth which I’ve been saying for the past few days is that the “no fly”: is a false solution to the Gaddafi problem. When President Obama said that he wasn’t sending ground troops, I’m sure Gaddafi did back flips of joy.

This how foolish our president is.


Democracy Now reports are of civilian casualties are mounting in Libya amidst ongoing U.S.-led air strikes and the Gaddafi regime’s assault on three rebel-held towns. At least 16 civilians were reportedly killed after forces loyal to Col. Muammar Gaddafi resumed an attack on the coastal city of Misurata, shelling an area around the city’s main hospital. Gaddafi forces are also carrying out attacks in the towns of Ajdabiya and Zintan. The Gaddafi regime, meanwhile, has attempted to provide evidence of repeated claims of civilian deaths in U.S.-led air strikes for the first time. Earlier today, Libyan officials showed journalists the bodies of 18 people it said were military personnel and civilians killed in bombing by allied forces. The claim could not be independently verified. Libya’s Deputy Foreign Minister, Khalid Kaim, called for an end to the air strikes.

Deputy Foreign Minister Khalid Kaim: "The air strikes, as what happened today, they didn’t differentiate between the civilians or the armed personnel. To start up the national dialogue and get back life back to normal, the air strikes should stop immediately."

Yesterday we lost one the greatest movie stars of all time. Elizabeth Taylor was 79.

One of my favorite movies is Giant starring Taylor, Rock Hudson, and James Dean in his last role before tragically dying in a car crash.

Well, Liz was the last of three to be alive until today. She died of congestive heart failure.

I think I’ll watch Giant again this weekend in tribute of this lovely lady that gave millions of her fans so much pleasure on the silver screen.






RIP Liz

Sources tell The Last Tradition that President Barack Obama has undergone plastic surgery to become John Kerry.

“I can no longer live a lie!” Obama has told close friends. He wants to be fully white with a propensity to go wind surfing and change his mind on important issues of the day.

Evidence of Obama’s new transformation was made evident Tuesday when he said Muorimar Ghadafi can stay in power despite implementing a “no fly” zone over Libya at great expense to the American people.

When asked by reporters about the bombing of Libya and giving aide to rebel forces seeking to topple Ghadafi, Obama said, “Never mind.”

This kid is in desperate need of a treadmill!

Daily Mail reports that at 132lbs, Lu Hao is already five times the size of a normal child his age.

The three-year-old toddler from China eats a staggering THREE bowls of rice when he sits down for a family meal.

When Lu Hao was born he weighed just 2.6kg (5.7 lbs), however, from the time he was three months old he began to gain weight rapidly.

'His appetite is so good that for a meal he can eat three big bowls of rice, even larger than I and his mother,' said Hao's father Lu Yuncheng.

Since Hao was one-year-old his parents have tried to keep a careful eye on his diet.





However, Hao's mother Chen Yuan comments: 'We have to let him be as if we don't feed him he will cry non-stop'.

I don’t see a long life for this kid if he continues just eat and not move that lard around.

There are always two sides to a story. His side, his side, and somewhere in between is the truth. Perhaps there’s more to the Casey fighting against the bully saga that meets the eye?

The Blaze reports that the infamous schoolyard confrontation that captured the attention of the world last week is now playing out as a battle on news stations and websites.

As we’ve reported, Casey Heynes
snapped when Ritchard Gale relentlessly bullied him. Casey’s raw reaction immediately drew sympathy from people who’ve suffered the emotional distress of being bullied. With public support firmly on Casey’s side, however, Ritchard is now claiming he was a victim and that Casey started the fight:

Casey has said he’s been a target of school bullies his whole life because he never retaliates. But 13-year-old Ritchard says he’s also been bullied and that Casey provoked him into fighting, calling him a “class idiot.” Ritchard also claims it was Casey who threw the first punch.

Judging by the original video, it seems hard to believe Casey could have started the fight, but Ritchard insists, “He abused me first.”




Having the world hate you is a pretty tough thing to deal with for a 12 yr old boy. I think we need to consider what we really don’t know. One video can never be the whole truth.

Or maybe Richard is full of it?

Here’s another heartwarming story amidst the disaster in Japan. There have been a stories of people found in the rubble days after the earthquake including an 80 year old woman and a 4 month old bay girl.

Now comes this story of a loyal dog standing guard and finding help for his doggie friend.

I love it!

Daily Mail reports this loyal spaniel saved the life of his injured friend who was barely moving by sticking by his side following the tsunami - and leading a group of rescuers to him.

In heartwarming footage, the brown and white dog leads reporters to the injured mud-splattered animal who is lying flat out among the wreckage.


The dog had seemingly stuck by the side of the wounded animal in Arahama, Sendai, for days following the earthquake and tsunami.

TV crews who were filming in the area initially thought the spaniel was guarding a dead dog, before they excitedly realised the injured animal was alive and being protected.

The dog was later rushed to the vets in Mito, while the loyal dog was taken to a nearby shelter.

The crews thought the white dog was dead but shout excitedly 'Yes! Yes! He is alive' as they spot his head moving.

I rarely post an entire article, but this one is worth the exception. What happened to Casey, the body slammer, as I call him, should be a lesson to every kid that’s bullied. Stand up and fight back! Don’t let yourself be an easy target.

Fight, fight, fight!

From The Blaze




Daily Mail reports they duct taped him to a pole, slapped him and repeatedly dubbed him 'fatty' to the point Casey Heynes thought about taking his life.

Now the bullied and overweight teenager has spoken out about that shocking moment when he turned the tables on his tormentor with a stunning wrestling move caught on camera making him a You Tube sensation.

The 15-year-old finally floored the school bully after he repeatedly hit him.

This week he revealed he had snapped because 'Everything had built up over three years'.

The Aussie schoolboy has received thousands of messages of support from all over the world since the 40-second clip was posted online.

But he denied being a superhero, even though he said he has enjoyed being nicknamed 'The Punisher'.

His older sister Tiana said he was now an icon, and his father Colin defended his son's actions, saying he had 'no choice' but to react the way he did.

Casey, from New South Wales, said his three years of bullying left him contemplating suicide.

The footage, apparently shot on a mobile phone by another child, shows one boy picking on Casey, punching him in the face and stomach while a group of pupils laugh and egg him on.

The smaller boy squares up to Casey and said: 'Have you been talking s***?'


Casey's attacker runs at him before throwing a punch in his direction backing the 15-year-old into a corner

Backed up against a wall, Casey responds: 'I haven't been talking s***.'Casey finally lashes out grabbing his attacker wresting him before spinning him around 360 degrees and slamming him to the ground in a wrestling move.

The teenager said the 12-year-old had tormented him two weeks earlier.

He said: 'Two weeks prior to that he and others would come up to me and slap me across the back of the head and tease me and all of that.

'They said, 'You're a fatty' and, 'Lose some weight'.'


Take that: The dazed bully climbs slowly to his feet and limps away from the scene

He said he had gone to collect a timetable at his school, Chifley College in St Marys, Western Sydney, when the bully hit him in the face, triggering his now famous reaction.

Casey said that he thought the bully's friends would join in the attack.

'That's why I picked him up and dropped him, because I was scared,' he said.

'I wanted to diffuse the situation.'

He said he had never reacted like that before, but this time, 'Everything had built up over three years.

'All the anger came out of it.'

He said he acknowledged he could have been more seriously hurt. His tormentor ended up with a grazed knee.

However, both boys were suspended from the school for fighting.

Casey said he felt he didn't over react, saying: 'I just wanted it to stop.

He told the special Sunday night edition of the programme how he has felt picked on and put down by other youngsters ever since he can remember.

'In primary school, in year two all the way to year six, once I hit High School, one person started it and at the time I had eight friends.

'Those eight friends ditched me that first year, and then the teasing started.
'They'd call me 'fatty', slap me across the back of the head and trip me and throw water bottles at me.
'It happened practically every day.'

He said he felt 'lonely' when his friends ditched him.

'I was all alone. That's what made me an easy target.'

Asked what makes an OK day, he replied: 'When nobody touches me and teases me.'

He said he lowest moment was when he 'contemplated suicide'.

'It was a year ago. I was really putting myself down and I was down at that level. All the crap just kept on piling on.'

He also revealed how he was duct taped to a pole saying: 'They put duct tape over my eyes first and taped me to a pole.'

He said he thought the bullies targeted him 'because I don't retaliate' adding he was 'pretty much' an easy target.

Giving advice to kids who are the victims of bullies, Casey said: 'On the good days, keep your chin up. School isn't going to last forever.'

He said his older sister, Tiana, helped get him through those dark times.

Tiana said: 'When I saw the video I said to him, 'I know I shouldn't be saying this, but high five!'

'I felt to me like he had defeated something that had been troubling him for years.

'He is a hero to other kids. He's an icon.'
He dad Colin said he had no idea of the full extent of his son's suffering.

He added: 'I did not realize how much trouble he was actually in until I'd seen that video.

'He said, 'Well that goes on every day, dad'.
'I thought to myself, 'You poor little bloke. How many years did you put up with this sort of treatment?'

'After I saw it I had a tear in my eye, I felt so bad.
'I don't condone violence. It was a horrific thing to see.
'It's nothing to be proud of, but I am glad he stood up for himself.

'They backed him against a wall and he had no option. He had to do it. He had to defend himself.'
He added the incident has changed his demeanor and self esteem.

'He's already standing a lot straighter, a lot more proud, which is very good for him.

Casey has since been immortalized in a Street Fighter-style video game, and also a South Korean computer animation called 'Casey the Punisher' who turns into an Incredible Hulk-style green muscle man.
Four Facebook pages have been set up in his honour with more than 200,000 fans.

He said it felt 'pretty good' to read the thousands of messages of support he has received.


'I've never had so much support.'

From The Blaze

HotAirPundit makes note of this exchange highlighted by The Final Call of Louis Farrakhan speaking with talk radio host and “long-time friend” Cliff Kelley on WVON-AM 1690 on March 11:




There’s a very intriguing twist to all this because the connection between Farrakhan, Jeremiah Wright, and Barack Obama. Wright was a big fan of Gahdafi and visited Libya with Jeremiah Wright. So Obama is breaking some sort of code among the three of them which explains his disappointment with Obama.

Very interesting!

Memeorandum

It’s on now!

Get ready for some unexpected consequences that will leave eggs on the faces of coalition forces if Gadhafi doesn’t go gently into that good night.

The Blaze reports that top officials from the United States, Europe and the Arab world have launched immediate military action to protect civilians as Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi‘s forces attacked the heart of the country’s rebel uprising.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy said after an emergency summit in Paris on Saturday that French warplanes are already targeting Gadhafi’s forces.
The 22 participants in Saturday’s summit “agreed to put in place all the means necessary, in particular military” to make Gadhafi respect a U.N. Security Council resolution Thursday demanding a cease-fire, Sarkozy said.
“Our planes are blocking the air attacks on the city” of Benghazi, he said, without elaborating. French planes have been readying for an attack in recent days.

Earlier Saturday, Libyan government troops forces stormed into the rebel capital of Benghazi, apparently ignoring a proclaimed cease-fire and potentially complicating any allied military action.
British Prime Minister David Cameron said after the summit: “The time for action has come, it needs to be urgent.”

France, Britain and the United States had warned Gadhafi Friday that they would resort to military means if he ignored the U.N. resolution.

How many times did the U.S. bomb Viet Nam and did it make a difference? Unless these coalition forces are ready to commit boots on the ground, these bombing runs won’t be enough.

Did you notice how the U.S. is relegeated to the background?

Who says President Obama is politically savvy?

Does this man know how bad this trip looks? How many more calamite have to be going on in the world simultaneously before Obama gets the message that as leader of the free world, he has more to do that give a speech from on high, then off to the golf course or yet another vacation?

CBS News reports President Barack Obama arrived in Brazil on Saturday for the start of a three-country, five-day tour of Latin America to promote greater economic ties and improved regional security. The trip comes against the backdrop of urgent issues elsewhere in the world, including the possibility of U.S. military action against the regime of Libya's Muammar Qaddafi.


Mr. Obama had his whole family in tow as he emerged from Air Force One into a mix of sunshine and raindrops in the highland capital of Brasilia early Saturday.

First lady Michelle Obama, daughters Malia and Sasha and the girls' grandmother and godmother accompanied the president on the nearly 9-hour flight from Washington, and through a receiving line of Brazilian and U.S. officials. Later in the morning the president and first lady were to participate in an official arrival ceremony at the presidential palace.

What a bunch of baloney!

If this were strictly a trip to promote business between Latin America and the United States, Obama wouldn’t be bringing his children and 2 grandmothers. Maybe Obama deep down Obama realizes he’s going to be a 1 term president. So, why not squeeze in as many rounds of golf and vacations as he can?

As I said in my prior post, Qadafi isn’t backing down one bit and isn’t afraid of Barack Obama. Why should he be afraid considering Obama has already said that the U.S. will not use grounds forces?

Bombing alone will not get the job done. And I think Qadafi is well aware of that.

CBS News reports that Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi appeared to defy the United Nations' call for an end to violence and even his own government's claim of an immediate cease-fire, with continued strikes against rebel forces in Benghazi.

A warplane was shot down over this eastern Libyan rebel stronghold Saturday, though it is unclear whether the jet belonged to Qaddafi's forces or to the rebels.

An Associated Press reporter saw a plane go down in flames outside Benghazi early Saturday, sending up a black cloud of smoke after the city came under attack. The sound of artillery and crackling gunfire was heard in the distance.

Libyan television broadcast live pictures this morning of a pro-Qaddafi demonstration at a Sabha airport. The video, which was taken on an airport runway, appeared to demonstrate the use of human shields.
Arab media has speculated that if Qaddafi's power base in Tripoli is threatened, he may flee to Sabha.


The latest developments come as leaders from the Arab world, Africa, the United States and other Western powers hold urgent talks in Paris Saturday over possible military action against Qaddafi's forces.

Trying to outmaneuver Western military intervention, Qaddafi's government declared a cease-fire on Friday as the rebel uprising faltered against his artillery, tanks and warplanes. But the opposition said shells rained down well after the announcement and accused the Libyan leader of lying.


On Saturday, government spokesman Ibrahim Musa denied that a government plane had gone down. He also denied government forces shelled any Libyan towns on Saturday, saying the rebels are the ones breaking the cease fire by attacking military forces.

CBS News correspondent Mandy Clarke reported on "The Early Show on Saturday Morning" that there is confusion over whose plane it was -- whether it was from government forces or those of the rebels.

Later, Qaddafi said the U.N. resolution authorizing international military intervention in Libya is "invalid.'' The Libyan leader said he sent a message to President Obama defending his decision to attack rebel cities: "If you found them taking over American cities by the force of arms, tell me what you would do?''

More details here

I think Obama and these coalition forces are setting themselves up for major embarrassment. Qaddafi isn’t as much of a nutcase as everybody thinks. He’s committed to endure ‘till death. I doubt very highly Obama is really serious here and if he’s going with half-ass military action, what will he really accomplish?

This really tugs at your heart.

I hope Toshihito finds his family alive and well. He’s a brave little boy who hasn’t given up hope.


Daily Mail reports he has become a poignant symbol of the human tragedy in Japan.

Day after day,
nine-year-old Toshihito Aisawa walks from shelter to shelter looking for his family.

Clutching hand-written signs bearing the names of his missing relatives, the schoolboy has spent the past week wandering the corridors of refugee centres in his ruined home city of Ishinomaki.

The boy last saw his mother, father and grandmother when they piled into their car in a desperate attempt to escape the tsunami.

But the car ran into a dead end and was swallowed by the killer tidal wave.

Toshihito escaped by smashing a window before being pulled, unconscious, from the water by rescuers.
Now he wanders with his sign that also reads: ‘I will come at 11 o’clock tomorrow, so please wait. I will come again tomorrow.’

There is hope, as he has already been reunited with a cousin who was in the car. Toshihito recalled the sounds of debris crashing into the sides of the vehicle as it hurtled along with the current.

When one of the objects cracked Toshihito’s window, he and his cousin Yuto used their bare hands to smash the glass and claw their way out of the car.
‘Then something, probably a tree, came crashing through, and I had to let go (of Yuto’s hand),’

Toshihito said. He lost consciousness until he was washed up about half an hour later on a piece of driftwood.

Somebody has to report the really stunning news of the day. So, let me do the tough job others don’t have the courage to do.

Daily Mail reports Kim Kardashian admits that she still has jiggly thighs and cellulite - despite an extensive exercise regime.


In a new interview, the reality star reveals she usually manages to exercise seven days a week - but says she still has body hang-ups.

And Kim, who was pictured dining out in West Hollywood last night with RnB star Ciara, admits that her weakness is her love of food.

We definitely need Senate hearing on this, as long as I get to sit next to Kim in her time of need.

The reason is because Obama is too busy selecting his NCAA brackets to notice a real emergency in the world that might require his attention.



Or in other words, it’s Amateur Hour at the White House. Seriously, this was such a condescending thing for Obama to do by saying check out his website to make a contribution to Japan. Are you serious?

Daily Mail reports that governments across the world are today urging their nationals to leave Tokyo as soon as possible amid fresh safety fears.

The U.K. Foreign Office is recommending that all Britons leave the area for their own safety, Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade recommended citizens who don't need to be in Japan leave and France told its citizens with no reason to stay in Tokyo to get out.

But the White House has not yet told Americans to get out of Tokyo, although it is 'working around the clock (to) determine the whereabouts and well-being' of U.S. citizens there.

We now have new weapon to battle snakes on the plane. Make sure you don’t leave the house without silicone implants.

Daily Mail reports that it should have been an alluring photoshoot between two of nature's beautiful creatures as a model wrapped herself in a snake.

But surgically enhanced
Israeli model Orit Fox got more than she bargained for when the massive boa constrictor took objection to her over familiarity and reacted by biting into her breast.

However, it was the snake who came off worse because, while Ms Fox need a tetanus shot in hospital, the reptile later died from silicone poisoning.
