Hollywood Director Sean Stone Converted To Islam, US Media Criticizes


Sean Stone, son of controversial director Oliver Stone, converted to Islam in Iran last week and says he’s already experiencing a Hollywood backlash.
The ceremony was held in Isfahan, where he is researching a documentary. He now goes by the name of Sean Christopher Ali Stone.
He told Page Six: “I’ve already experienced the reverse of anti-Semitism, having people within the film industry express a reluctance to work with me now that I have said a simple prayer, ‘There is no God but God, and Mohammed is his messenger.’ I am sure I have [bleeped] off some powerful people.” Speaking over dinner at Barrio 47, Sean told us, “Having read the Koran and having been around the Islamic culture, especially in Iran, I do believe that Mohammed is a prophet of the same god worshipped by other religions.
“I am of a Jewish bloodline, a baptized Christian who accepts Christ’s teachings, the Jewish Old Testament and the Holy Koran. I believe there is one God, whether called Allah or Jehovah or whatever you wish to name him. He creates all peoples and religions. I consider myself a Jewish Christian Muslim.
“What I am trying to do is open up a dialogue about religion. There is such Islamophobia in the West. Islam is not a religion of violence any more than Judaism or Christianity is.”
He said his dad welcomed the move.
“My dad said, ‘Allah be with you.’ My father understands that I am trying to bridge certain gaps and bring about peace.”
But he has been shocked by the reaction from others. Sean, about to release his horror movie “Graystone,” said, “I didn’t realize I would be so vilified. It is almost like I am a criminal for having accepted Islam. I didn’t realize Islamophobia was that deep. People have speculated that I have done this because I am from a spoiled family or that I am lost and trying to find myself. That is ridiculous.
“I don’t care if I get criticized. If I can open up a debate about religion and create some understanding, then it is worth it.”

Sri Lanka beat Australia by 9 runs



Melbourne: Sri Lanka beat Australia by 9 runs to qualify for the CB Series finals against the same opposition, knocking India out, on Friday.

Chasing a target of 239, Australia lost Matthew Wade (9) and David Warner (6) early. India's hopes may have been kept alive by Shane Watson who smashed 65 with five boundaries. Once his partner in Michael Hussey left, the hopes of a win for the hosts and a qualification for India began to fade.

David Hussey anchored himself to deny Sri Lanka but failed to find a partner to manage the other end. Daniel Chirstian (3), James Pattinson (12) and Clint McKay (6) left without any intention of mounting a fight.

Earlier in the day, Daniel Christian became the first Australian to take an ODI hat-trick since Brett Lee nearly a decade ago as Sri Lanka struggled to 238 at the MCG.

Sangakkara and Chandimal put on 123 for the third wicket and Lahiru Thirimanne made a useful 51 but too many of the batsmen fell for single figures and Sri Lanka were dismissed from the last ball of the 50th over.

Samarah Sets World Record In Arts In CIE Exams


KARACHI: Art reaches beyond all social, cultural and religious bounds and so its significance is far-reaching and profound. Where people may think that the importance of arts is ebbing away, Samrah Tariq proves it otherwise.
Setting a world record in CIE exams 2011 in Arts, Samarah, from Happy Home School, Karachi, is the only student from Pakistan to have set benchmarks of accomplishments and achieved CIE Outstanding Achievers Awards this year.
In a subject less opted in Pakistan yet drawing enormous traction through out the world, Samarah’s achievement has only manifested the fact that despite lack of rudimentary encouragement and incentives, Pakistan’s got burgeoning talent that wins its way through all hurdles.
“It was the best moment of my life to hear my principal breaking the news of my achievement. The only feelings I had were of awe and happiness. My inspirations are my art teacher and my mother who showed faith in my work and skills.”
Rubeena Shafiq, the proud art teacher said, ‘ Where arts as a subject is somehow underrated in terms of the career opportunities it reaps for the students in Pakistan, it is a widely revered discipline and offers a great paths in terms of career as well. By snubbing the importance of art, we in fact limit and underrate the importance of free expression and creativity-things that have led us to reach the state of disillusionment we are in, at present.’
Last year also, the award was secured by another gem from St. Josephs Convent School, Karachi
While these outstanding achievers make us proud, it is hoped that they stay sure-footed to set benchmarks of excellence in both academics and non-academics and continue to make their country proud.

BEST DANCE AWARD NOMINATIONS

بات تو سچ ہے مگر بات ہے رسوائی کی


افغانستان میں قرآن پاک جلایا جاتا ہے ہماری قوم کے کانوں پر جوں تک نہیں رینگتی، ڈراؤن حملوں میں معصوم جانیں جاتی ہیں ہمیں کوئی فکر نہیں، اک طرف قتل و غارت کا بازار گرم مگر ہم خاموش تماشائی، امریکہ اور باقی طاغوتی قوتیں مسلمانوں کے خون سے ہولی کھیل رہی ہیں ہمارے زہنوں پر کرکٹ کا بھوت سوار، قرآن جل رہا ہے ہمارے حکمران اپنے خوش آمدیوں کے ساتھ نغمہ سرائی اور شراب و شباب کی محفلوں میں دھت دشمن ازلی کو خوش کرنے میں اندھا دھند پیسے اڑا رھے ہیں، اور غریبوں اور شہیدوں کے مزاروں اور آرزؤں پر دھما چوکڑی مچا رہے ہیں مگر ہماری غیرت خاموش، بلوچستان کا واقعہ ہمیں روز روز جھنجھوڑنے کی کوشش کرتا ہے لیکن ہمارے مردہ ضمیر خاموش....!!!

کون کون سی نا انصافیوں کو میں تحریر کروں جو اس خواب غفلت میں ڈوبی قوم کو جگا سکیں.....!!!
آج مجھے حیرت ہو رہی ہے کہ ہم نے صرف کرکٹ کو ہی اپنا دین و ایمان کیوں بنا لیا ہے.....!!!
آج انگلینڈ سے پاکستان کرکٹ میچ ہارتا ہے تو فیس بک آنسؤں سے تر ہو جاتی ہے...گراؤنڈ/سٹیڈیم میں عورتوں اور نوجوانوں کے آنسوں بہتے ہیں ـ کاش اگر ہم ایسا ہی جذبہ ملت اسلامیہ کی بقا اور ملک و ملت کی سلامتی اور فلاح و بہبود کے لیے بھی رکھتے...... لیکن کاش یہی ایک تلخ حقیقت ہے....جو مجھے قلم اٹھانے پر مجبور کرتی ہے....اور میری نظریں اس قوم کی قسمت کا عروج زوال کہیں اور دیکھ رہی ہیں ـ اقبال کے شاہین کرگس کی راہ پر گامزن ہو گۓ ـ وہ قوم جو اہنی داستانیں تلوار کی نوک سے لکھتی تھی آج گیند اور بیٹ سے لکھنے کی کوشش کر رہی ہے....بات تو سچ ہے مگر بات ہے رسوائی کی....لوٹ آؤ کہ اب بھی وقت ہے.........

Vatican Requests 1,500-Year-Old Bible Held In Turkey


The Bible of William Hannay of Tundergarth, Dumfriesshire. No Photos of the Turkish Bible are available at this time.

The Vatican has allegedly issued an official request to examine a 1,500-year-old Bible that has been held in Turkey for the past 12 years, the Hurriyet Daily News reports.
The Bible reportedly contains early teachings of Jesus Christ and is written in gold lettering on animal hide in Syriac, a dialect of Aramaic, which was the native tongue of Jesus.
According to a report by National Turk, the Bible was seized from a gang of smugglers in a Mediterranean-area operation. The report states the gang was charged with smuggling antiquities, illegal excavations, and the possession of explosives.
Today's Zaman reports that the Bible is under high security and that a Turkish daily newspaper, the Star, claims the book could be a copy of the Gospel of Barnabas -- a controversial text which some claim is an addition to the original gospels -- Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John -- that was suppressed.
In it, Jesus is said to have predicted the coming of the Prophet Muhammad.
Due to its value as a cultural and religious artifact, even photocopies of the pages could be worth between 3 and 4 million Turkish Lira, or about 1,700,000 to 2,300,000 U.S. dollars.
CORRECTION: A previous version of this article mischaracterized the status of the Gospel of Barnabas in various religious traditions. Also, the exchange value of the Turkish lira was initially miscalculated.
