MuslimSisterWomen get 'virginity fix' NHS operations in Muslim-driven trend

Women are being given controversial "virginity repair" operations on the NHS, it emerged last night.

Taxpayers funded 24 hymen replacement operations between 2005 and 2006, official figures revealed.

Such a waste of public money, it reminds me of this:

Australia's opposition Labor Party has questioned the need for female sailors to be given breast enlargements paid for with public money.

He was speaking after one plastic surgeon said he had carried out breast enlargements on two sailors, aged 25 and 32, for A$10,000 (£4,200) each.

Student who put feet on train seat faces court

Kathleen Jennings, a Cub Scout leader who also works with disabled children, was reduced to tears by the incident.

Even though she took her flip-flops off the seat straight away when challenged by a Merseyrail enforcement officer and apologised, she has been summonsed to appear before magistrates accused of "wilfully interfering with the comfort or convenience" of other passengers.

Kathleen, 19, a maths student at Manchester University, said: "I was crying my eyes out. I have never been in trouble before and, working with children, I do not want a criminal record."

She is facing a fine and prosecution costs of £150, on top of solicitor's fees, when she appears before magistrates in Chester today.

Kathleen, of Oldham, Greater Manchester, said she was approached by the enforcement officer as the train in which she was travelling approached Chester.

She said: "I had my feet on the seat in front of me - just the edge of my flip-flops. A man in uniform came up to

me and said, 'Are you comfortable?'

"I said sorry and moved my feet back to the floor. Then he said that he wanted to see me when I got off the train.

"I got off at Chester and he was waiting. He ushered me over to the side of the platform and cautioned me."

He took down her description, phone number, occupation and even recorded what she was wearing.

Merseyrail is the only rail company to prosecute passengers for putting their feet on seats. About 250 people have been taken to court since the scheme was launched in February.

A company spokesman could not comment because of the impending court case but said the "feet-up" policy had been widely publicised. Stickers are placed on trains and Tannoy announcements made.

It is in response to "passenger feedback" under steps to tackle anti-social behaviour. The spokesman also said that the company had spent £32 million refurbishing its fleet.

Enforcement officers wearing CCTV "head cams" patrol carriages and prosecutions are based on railway bylaws regarding "unacceptable behaviour".

Kathleen's father, Tony, said: "Kathleen has always been an A* student and is a good, considerate girl.

"Why couldn't a fixed penalty notice be given? She could end up with a criminal record on her CV, which could affect her future. It's madness."

omg that is so petty! i always have my feet on the seat in front of me, better break that habit, don't wana be getting fined!

Nooromg that is so petty! i always have my feet on the seat in front of me, better break that habit, don't wana be getting fined!

its not petty, i think they're quite right to fine her.

why should all the passengers pay more expensive fares to cover cleaning charges when only a minority of people put their feet up?

i don't know about you, but i don't put my feet up at home when i'm wearing shoes. i don't even wear my shoes in the house at all.

what if she'd stepped in dog poo?

i don't wanna get my clothes dirty, so i don't sit on the pavement (ever since i gave up drinking).

now they just need to illegalise chewing gum (like in singapore) and then we'd all be much cleaner.

BEWARE OF EXPLODING BLADDERS!!

Sir Jimmy hails 'marvellous' mugging

Sir Jimmy Saville has been mugged by a young woman – but described it as a 'marvellous' experience.

The 81-year-old said the thief made off with his John Lennon-style glasses as he was leaving a function at the Queens Hotel in Leeds, West Yorkshire.

Sir Jimmy reported it to police, but compared the experience with being chased by fans in the 1960s.

'I've not been mugged for over 50 years, it was just like old times,' he said.

'I thought, I've been mugged. How wonderful.'

He added: 'If the girl turns up and I get my glasses back, I will give her chocolates for giving me a 1950s thrill in 2007.'

A Muslim who married his 15-year-old daughter and made her pregnant had to be rescued from angry villagers in the Indian state of West Bengal, police say
Afazuddin Ali, 36, has five children - three of them daughters.

A few months ago Ali married his eldest daughter, telling his wife Sakina that Allah had ordained him to do so.

Not convinced by his story, his angry neighbours in Kasiajhiora village nearly lynched him for what they said was a clear case of incest.

Marriage within the nuclear family is forbidden in Islam.

'Divine sanction'

"He is a deeply religious man and will never lie in the name of Allah," Sakina told a court in the northern district of Jalpaiguri.

"I agreed to his marriage with our eldest daughter when he invoked divine sanction," she said.

But this story has failed to impress the other villagers.

"We didn't know she was married so when we confronted his wife, she told us about the bizarre marriage six months ago," Sheikh Ramzan, a village leader at Kasiajhiora, said.

"We wanted to smash his head, we were so angry."

When the angry mob attacked Ali on Sunday, a police team went to the village and rescued Ali and his wife.

The couple were produced before a magistrate in Jalpaiguri on Monday.

But as the lower court has no criminal jurisdiction, Ali and his wife were released.

"The police have not lodged any specific charge against Afazuddin (Ali) and my court has no jurisdiction over criminal matters, so what can I do," sub-divisional officer Atanu Roy said.

Angry villagers say that is not good enough.

"The girl is a minor, so at the very least her father should face criminal charges for marrying a minor," villager Sheikh Ramzan said.

Ali and his wife have not returned home because they fear a fresh attack from angry villagers.

They are staying in Jalpaiguri town at the moment.

Teacher charged with blasphemy for calling bear Muhammad

A British primary school teacher has been arrested in Sudan accused of blasphemy for allowing her pupils to name a teddy bear Muhammad, it emerged today.

Gillian Gibbons, 54, from Liverpool, was arrested yesterday at her home inside Unity high school, a British international school, after a number of parents made a complaint to Sudan's education ministry.

Gibbons's colleagues told Reuters they feared for her safety after receiving reports that young men had already started gathering outside the Khartoum police station where she was being held.

The School's Director, Rober Boulos, said Gibbons was following a national curriculum course designed to teach young pupils about animals and their habitats. This year's animal was the bear.

Gibbons, who joined Unity in August, asked the class of mostly seven-year-olds to name the toy.

"They came up with eight names including Abdullah, Hassan and Muhammad. Then she explained what it meant to vote and asked them to choose the name." Twenty out of the 23 children chose Muhammad.

Each child was allowed to take the bear home at weekends and was told to write a diary about what he or she did with the toy. The entries were collected in a book with a picture of the bear on the cover, next to the message "My name is Muhammad," said Boulos.

Boulos said the first he knew about the course was last week when he received a phone call from the ministry of education, saying a number of Muslim parents had made formal complaints.

I thought about 90% of Muslims called their sons 'Muhammad'. Should they also get charged with blasphemy for impersonating the Prophet (saw).

This is really weird, I don't understand it atall, there is no mention of anyone saying that the bear was a representation of the Prophet (saw).

Ex-girlfriend is killed after 'no' to TV proposal

Svetlana Orlova had no idea why she had been invited on to the daytime television show and she was shocked to find herself face to face with the man who had beaten her for years.

She was further stunned when he produced an engagement ring and proposed. Looking deeply uncomfortable, she shook her head.

The public rebuff cost her her life. Within days she had been stabbed to death and her former lover was under arrest for murder.

Pakistani lawyers jostle to tear a goat skin, as a symbolic reference to
President Gen. Pervez Musharraf's uniform, which he would often refer to as
his second skin, in Multan , Pakistan on Wednesday, Nov. 28, 2007.
Musharraf stepped down from his powerful post as Pakistan's military
commander, a day before he was to be sworn in as a civilian president as
part of his long-delayed pledge not to hold both jobs.

You can now buy a 'traditional nativity scene' of the stable and baby Jesus (as), except there is a large wall in the way of it so the wise men and shepherds can't get in there. This is to symbolise the fact that Bethlehem is now part of the Occupied Territories of Palestine and Israel have shut them off from the outside world.

The wooden models are made by Palestinian craftsmen and all proceed go to helping Palestinian projects.

There is also a Virgin Mary (ra) USB memory stick, for some obscure reason.
