And Justin Bieber’s tumultuous tour rolls on. After a host of
problems in Europe, the 19-year-old pop star faces trouble on tour
again, but this time in the Middle East. While Bieber played a show in
Dubai, an overeager fan somehow made her way onto the stage and began
hugging the singer from behind.
Justin: they knocked the swaggy out of me with
that tackle!
This sent Bieber’s security scrambling. Bieber’s bodyguard
executed a football tackle and took down the young fan…and
unintentionally knocked the singer and his piano over as well. Critics
are commenting that the piano music and Bieber’s singing kept going
even while he was flat-out on the floor.

Faisil Shahzad, the man that tried to blow up Times Square in New York last Saturday, May 2, 2010, has been apprehended by American authorities, as he attempted to board an Emirates airplane to Dubai, at John F. Kennedy Airport, en route to his homeland, Pakistan.
Shazhard, became a U.S. citizen one year ago. He has been living in America for years. He went to the University of Bridgeport, in the U.S. state of Connecticut. He obtain a degree in Computer Applications and Information Systems and later earned an MBA. He is married with two children and his home was foreclosed upon last year.
Eric Holder, sporting his standard "deer in headlights" look: we found out about it when you did
Shazhard, the prime suspect in the attempted bombing, told the FBI he acted alone.However, additional arrests have been made in America and Pakistan, regarding this terrible incident.
The timer on Shahzad's bomb (yes, really)
The bomb looked like it was made by Wiley Coyote. If this dude did not have the brain power of Britney Spears, the bomb would have gone off. He deserves life in prison for the attempted mass murder of people in New York.
Wiley Coyote
In watching the news on Saturday, one of my relatives was concerned the suspect, may have fled the country. I stated in response, the airport is the worst place to go when one commits a crime in a major country, as APBs will be issued. One would simply turn up at the airport unannounced and receive a free prostate exam, courtesy of a policeman's nightstick (truncheon). And sure enough, they caught him at the airport days later.
Times Square crime scene
In closing, well done to the t-shirt vendor, whose vigilance in spotting the smoking vehicle, saved many lives, by the grace of God. You deserve the keys to the city and a cash reward.
24-year-old British teacher, Emma Jones, committed suicide, after a reportedly sadistic, vindictive ex-boyfriend, Mr. Brayley, posted nude photos of her on the internet website, Facebook, without her permission.
She was working in the Middle East as a teacher, when she found out what transpired on the social networking site, via a colleague at the school, accusing her of prostitution, after viewing the Facebook site.
Overwhelmed, she called her mother crying, then later committed suicide, unable to cope with what was done to her and the fear she would be jailed in Dubai. If her boyfriend is found liable, he should be imprisoned and fined, as this incident has cost Emma Jones her life.
Poor thing. Suicide is never the answer. Some people are wicked enough to want to harm and push others over the edge, but you can't let them win. You have to regain control of your life and keep going forward. Suing them senseless for violating your rights, doesn't hurt either.
The Judiciary Report has consistently maintained, laws need to be enacted, providing serious criminal penalties and fines, to anyone that uploads nude photos and or videos, of another person without their consent, as it is a vile, inhumane invasion of privacy. The whole practice is lewd and vulgar.
British teacher killed herself after naked photos were posted on Facebook
24th February, 2010 - A British teacher found dead in her Middle Eastern apartment killed herself after a former boyfriend posted naked photographs of her on Facebook, an inquest heard.
Emma Jones, who was teaching in Abu Dhabi at an international school, killed herself after fearing she would be jailed over the indecent photos, Mail Online reported.
The 24-year-old is thought to have drunken poisonous cleaning fluid to take her own life. She was believed to have already started packing to return to Britain, as her passport was found in her jeans pocket.
Her mother Louise Rowlands told the hearing about Emma's worry over the Facebook photos. "He put them on her Facebook and she said she was accused of prostitution by a man working at the school', said Mrs Rowlands.
A man working at the school had allegedly seen the photos and Emma feared that she would be reported to Abu Dhabi authorities.
Emma had been working at the International School of Choueifat in Khalifa City since 2008 and she did not get on well with the man who saw the pictures. Her mother encouraged Miss Jones to return to Britain but Emma was convinced she'd be thrown in jail if she tried to leave.
The ex boyfriend accused of posting the photos, Mr Brayley, denies doing so and said he had never downloaded private pictures of her, he told the inquest in Cardiff...

US hails capture of Taleban commander Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar
February 18, 2010 - The White House has hailed the capture of Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar as a significant win in efforts to deny the Taleban a safe haven in the lawless tribal areas along the Afghan-Pakistan frontier.

U.K., Ireland to Israel envoys: Explain identity theft in Dubai killing
Last update - 03:48 18/02/2010 - Israel's ambassador to Britain has been summoned to a meeting with a senior Foreign Office official today, to clarify what London called the "identity theft" of six British citizens living in Israel. The alleged theft was in connection to last month's assassination of a top Hamas figure in his Dubai hotel room.
Although Jerusalem has not taken responsibility for the January 20 hit on Mahmoud al-Mabhouh, the incident seems to have spawned a serious diplomatic rift between Israel and Great Britain. In his late morning meeting with British Foreign Office Under Secretary Peter Ricketts, Israeli Ambassador Ron Prosor is expected merely to listen to London's position, rather than offer an Israeli response...
Some smart aleck airline, *cough* United, decided to introduce luxury planes to Dubai. I don't know about you guys, but I like my airline travel the old fashioned way - your butt falls asleep, because it's been uncomfortably sitting in the same spot for 2 hours, then you try to fall asleep, but your head keeps nudging forward and waking you up with mild whiplash and when you finally land, you are so worn out after your flight, you come off the plane looking like you have rickets. Now that's air travel. Pain is the new luxury (not).
Side Bar: To all the other airlines reading this,I'm totally kidding about the rickets thing. Do not bump me from future flights over this article. Love you (smiles sweetly).
Former England football captain and Chelsea FC player, John Terry, has flown to Dubai to see his heartbroken wife, Toni and their twins, after news went public he had slept with one of her friends, who became pregnant and had an abortion he paid for. The scandal has cost him his captaincy, but not his marriage, which he seeks to repair.
Meanwhile, back in England, Terry's mistress, Vanessa Perroncel, is accusing a news outlet of hacking her cell phone and that of her friends, for scoops and definitive evidence in the case.

Solicitor for woman in John Terry scandal suspects phone-hacking
Mobile phones of Vanessa Perroncel and friends showed signs of being illegally accessed, according to lawyer Wednesday 10 February 2010 15.39 GMT
A lawyer for Vanessa Perroncel, the woman at the centre of the John Terry scandal, is investigating the possibility that Perroncel had her mobile phone hacked by journalists.
The model's phone and those of her friends showed signs of being illegally accessed, Charlotte Harris of JMW Solicitors told MediaGuardian.co.uk. There was evidence that information from voicemail messages had appeared in national newspaper articles, she said.
Harris added she was investigating the incident and was contacting various authorities, including the police and the information commissioner. She had also written to mobile-phone operator Vodafone...
Harris also represents Perroncel's agent Max Clifford, who last week won a court action allowing him access to documents concerning the News of the World phone-hacking case, which saw a private investigator used by the paper, Glenn Mulcaire, and the paper's royal editor, Clive Goodman, jailed.
Video: Fabio Capello replaces Terry with Ferdinand
Scandal plagued English football star, John Terry, has been replaced as captain of the national team, by Rio Ferdinand, who becomes the first black man to attain the post (Dude, they Obama-ed you, congrats!).
The press has been unrelenting, as footballers are often the most famous people in England and other parts of the world, hence public interest in their rise or demise blankets the news.
Toni Terry
Vanessa Perroncell, a cocktail waitress, is in the center of the storm, for sleeping with a number of football players. So far, she has made roughly $500,000 for selling her story, while John Terry has lost that much and more in endorsement deals.

The real victims in this tragedy are Terry's wife and children, who flew out to Dubai to escape the sadness of the scandal that has dominated the British press and run in papers all over the world.
John Terry
After all is said and done, Terry needs to apologize to his wife and try to make his family work, as that is more important than football. This was a tough lesson to learn, but he cannot let it destroy him. He should seek God's forgiveness, as does Ms. Perroncell.
John Terry was dropped as England's captain by manager Fabio Capello, a week after allegations became public that the defender had an affair with the former girlfriend of teammate Wayne Bridge. Rio Ferdinand will take over as England's captain.
