His body was prepared for burial when a doctor sent her to sign the death certificate, discovered he was still warm.


Family members were so convinced Mr. al-Nubdi was dead, they had already washed his body, according to Islamic tradition, and were preparing to bury him on Friday night.
After finding it was still warm, the doctor checked her vital signs and discovered that he was still breathing.
She quickly revived al-Nubdi - with his mother, who had fainted when she heard her son was not dead.


Rather than cancel the funeral, mourners took the party into a celebration of Mr. al-Nubdi "resurrection".
This is not the first time someone came "back from the dead" at their own funeral.
Last month, a woman 95 years old Chinese man came out of his own coffin, six days after she was thought to be dead following a fall.
Li Xiufeng was found motionless and not breathing in his bed by a neighbor two weeks after the start and suffered a head wound at his home in Beiliu, Guangxi Province.

Mom breastfeeding to 3-years old boy in USA

Friday, May 11, 2012


NEW YORK - offensive or not much? A woman nursing her 3-year-old son is the photo of cover of Time magazine this week for an article on "attachment parenting," and the reactions ranged from applause to servile shrugs.
The picture showed Jamie Lynne Grumet, 26, mother to stay at home in Los Angeles who says her mother breastfed until the age of 6 years. She told the magazine in an interview she gave up reasoning with strangers who see her son and threaten nursing "to call social services on me or that pedophilia is."
"People must understand that it is biologically normal," she said, adding: "More people see it, the more it will become normal in our culture. This is what I hope. I want people see it. "
Some wondered why the magazine used the photo of Grumet, a thin blond pretty enough to be a model to illustrate the story of a style of parenting that has been around for a generation. The issue includes a profile of attachment parenting guru, Dr. Bill Sears, who wrote one of the bibles of the movement, "The Baby Book," 20 years ago.

Mika Brzezisnki, co-host of MSNBC weekday morning program "Morning Joe", suggested on air that the cover was unnecessarily sensational, "I'll tell you why it bothers me - because this is a project profile Bill Sears! "

Twitter, the cover has inspired X-rated jokes and concerns that the child might be teased when he is older. But on many boards, there was debate about whether it is OK to breastfeed beyond infancy.
Bobbi Miller, a mother of six who lives in Arkansas, expressed his disapproval in a tweet and said in a telephone interview, "Even a cow knows when to wean their child." On the cover, she said: "Why would it even be there It's ridiculous It's almost on the point of voyeurism?"..
But Bettina Forbes, co-founder of an organization called Best Babes that promotes breastfeeding and supports women who want to breastfeed their children beyond infancy, said she hopes the cover "will mainstream America less disgusted "about women breastfeeding children of all ages. "It is high time that we talk about these things," she said.

Reaction to the coverage highlighted a cultural gap between traditional children's education and what some considered "extreme parenting." The philosophy of setting encourages mothers to meet their babies every cry and form close bonds with almost constant physical contact through "co-sleeping" (let them sleep in bed with parents rather than in cribs) and "baby bear" (carry them in slings instead of pushing them in strollers).

Retail chains, including Target, Wal-Mart and Safeway did not immediately respond to requests for comment on whether the magazine, which goes on sale Friday, will be displayed in stores.

Mumbai on alert while the 'terrorists working in Lahore


Afzal Khan / May 11, 2012
Mumbai police on Wednesday released photographs of three suspected terrorists in five, which, she said, belonged to the holding banned Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and had entered Mumbai.
The three, however, appeared at a police station in Lahore on Wednesday night and said they are present in Lahore, two of them run businesses and serving as a security guard at the city famous electronics market Hafeez Centre.

Individuals were identified as businessmen and Atif Butt Butt Mehtab, and a security guard Baber. Arif said he had once visited India with a delegation of business two years ago, while the other two said they did not even have passports.

A leading Indian newspaper (The Times of India) who made the photos of the suspects said that Indian intelligence agencies warned the Mumbai police that five LeT cooperatives have infiltrated the city and plotting to attack vital installations, possibly through the Seaway.

The alert was sent on Sunday as well as color photographs of the five terrorists, who are all in the age group of 25-30 years. After the warning, the police commissioner Arup Patnaik has convened a high-level meeting on Monday to discuss security to enhance security at key facilities, the TOI quoting sources as saying.
A police officer who attended the meeting of the commissioner said the warning center said that the plan of the terrorists is to "sabotage" key installations near the coast by "hiring a ferry from the Gateway of India "and" attack from the sea. "

The terrorists, said the officer, have infiltrated the country earlier by land across the borders of Gujarat, Rajasthan and Jammu and Kashmir. They carry with them fake IDs Indians, copies of which were sent by the central intelligence agencies to the Mumbai police.
The three individuals were accompanied by the office bearers and the market traders who have demanded that the Punjab government should file a protest to the Foreign Office against the false report.

Al-Qaeda bombing disrupted air, U.S. says


 CIA and partners overseas intelligence disrupted an AL Qaeda plot to blow up civilian aircraft using an advanced device explosive designed by the subsidiary of the terrorist network in Yemen, officials American said on Monday.

President Obama was made aware of the threat in April, U.S. officials said, and the plot was stopped before any aircraft or passengers could be endangered. Obama "has been assured that the device is not a threat to the public," said Caitlin Hayden, a spokesman for the National Security Council.
U.S. officials said the FBI is looking at the camera - on the model of the "underwear bomb" used in an attempt to shoot down an airliner bound for Detroit on Christmas Day 2009 - to determine whether security systems of the airport would have detected.

U.S. officials said the CIA and other agencies followed the plot for about a month before proceeding to enter the unit in recent days in the Middle East outside of Yemen, where the bomb was built.
Officials said the bomb or its components were in transit when intercepted, but the device has not been seized at an airport and that al Qaeda had not target a specific flight, yet Unless you take steps to get the explosive edge.

U.S. officials have refused to provide key details about the plot, expressing concern about protecting intelligence sources and sensitive operations. Officials would not say whether a suspect had been apprehended or specify where the device was seized.
The time of the alleged terror plot coincides with a major escalation of the campaign illegal U.S. drone in Yemen. U.S. officials said the explosive appears to have been assembled by al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, or AQAP, a subsidiary based in Yemen, which has been linked to large scale against the United States.

"AQAP is the group responsible here," said a senior U.S. official who, like others, spoke on condition of anonymity to share sensitive information. "We believe that the AQAP produced the device, and we believe it was designed for use by a suicide bomber on an aircraft. "
In addition to the plot 2009 bomber, AQAP has been linked to a failed 2010 attempt to send packages filled with explosives to addresses in Chicago and a 2009 attack in Saudi Arabia, where a suicide bomber was killed when attempting to assassinate the macabre the kingdom official fight against terrorism at the top, Mohammed bin Nayef.

Bomb "difficult to detect"

U.S. officials said the new device was designed to overcome the technical problems and detection systems that had thwarted previous plans AQAP. The bomb was built with a detonator more advanced than that fizzled in the attack foiled Christmas Day, in which the bomber would be, Omar Farouk Abdulmutallab, was subdued by other passengers frightened by plumes of smoke rising from his seat.

The new device was also devoid of metal or developer components, which means it would have been difficult for any but the most sophisticated systems for airport security to detect.

Dianne Feinstein (California), chairman of the Senate Committee on Intelligence, described the device as "a specific type of bomb that is newly designed and very difficult to detect by magnetometer."

In a written statement, she said, "It was like that. . . Abdulmutallab was in his underwear. "

This device and others are regarded as the work of Ibrahim Hassan al-Asiri, an accomplished AQAP-affiliated artificer who remains at large.

Bin Laden's birthday

Disclosure of the plot, first reported by The Associated Press, comes less than a week after the anniversary of the death of Osama bin Laden and amid recent efforts by the Obama administration to make its achievements against terrorism a central issue in the presidential campaign.

White House officials said before, they were not aware of any terrorist plots linked to mark one year of the death of bin Laden. Despite the release of Monday, a senior official said these claims were true.

"We had no specific, credible information about active terrorist plots to coincide with the anniversary of Ben Laden and repeat that this device has never been a threat to the public," said the senior official .

However, detection of the alleged Al-Qaeda plan seems to have set a series of counter-terrorist operations in motion.

Last month, Obama has approved a significant escalation of drone attacks in Yemen, which allows the CIA and the U.S. Joint Special Operations Command to start shooting on targets engaged in activities deemed suspicious, even if identities of those who might be killed is unknown.

Fahd al-Quso, a senior officer of AQAP were killed in drone strike last, was said to have passed the United Anwar al-Awlaki was born at the head of AQAP external planning. Awlaki was killed in an attack on CIA drone last year.

Quso has been linked to the 2000 attack on the USS Cole in Yemen that killed 17 American sailors. U.S. officials said it was likely to have been involved in any plot to strike the United States. Officials declined to say whether he was targeted on the basis of information gathered when the bomb was intercepted.

AQAP threat "increasingly"

CIA analysts have warned administration officials in recent months that the ability of AQAP to seize chunks of territory in Yemen during the past year has made it more dangerous for the United States and its Western allies.

"It is our assessment that the threat of AQAP is increasing because of territorial gains," the senior American official said, adding that its territorial expansion has "allowed the group to establish training camps Extra. "

U.S. officials did not specify whether the seizure of the last bomb was triggered specific security measures. The FBI said in a statement that the device was "seized abroad", but that the office "is in possession of [him] and conducts technical analysis and forensic science."

"This is the first time that George Clooney has never been photo-shopped a picture," Obama said. "Never happened before, never happens again."

In fact, the artist who created the poster, Shepard Fairey, used another photo of Obama but said he was counting on the image Obama-Clooney to avoid a case of infringement of copyright to Associated Press. He pleaded guilty in February to criminal contempt of production and destruction of evidence.

In this crowd, Obama did not even need to talk about gay marriage for more vigorous applause. "Clearly," the president said obliquely, "yesterday we made some news."
