ANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, Brunei - The new penal code for oil-rich Brunei that will eventually include Islamic sharia penalties such as severing of limbs and death by stoning was due to officially come into effect on Thursday.

Brunei’s all-powerful Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah had announced on Wednesday that he would push ahead with the introduction of the new criminal code that has sparked rare domestic criticism of the fabulously wealthy ruler and international condemnation.

The initial phase beginning Thursday introduces fines or jail terms for offences including indecent behaviour, failure to attend Juma prayers, and out-of-wedlock pregnancies. There were no known events to mark Thursday’s implementation.

A second phase covering crimes such as theft and robbery is to start later this year, involving more stringent penalties such as severing of limbs and flogging. Late next year, punishments such as death by stoning for offences including sodomy and adultery will be introduced.

The sultan - one of the world’s wealthiest men - had announced the implementation last year. He first called for the penal code in the late 1990s and has increasingly voiced plans to strengthen Islam’s role in the energy-rich Muslim country on Borneo island.

But the plans by the revered father-figure monarch triggered unprecedented criticism earlier this year on Brunei’s active social media, though the move appears to enjoy broad support, especially among Muslim ethnic Malays, who make up about 70 percent of the population.

The UN’s human rights office and various international rights and legal activist groups also have condemned the move as out of step with modern society.

And in a completely UNRELATED and different story...

‘I abducted your girls,’ Nigerian Islamist leader reportedly says in video

The French news agency Agence France-Presse says it has obtained a video in which a leader of a militant Islamist group claims credit for abducting 276 Nigerian schoolgirls. It’s been assumed that the group, Boko Haram, was responsible but until Monday there had been no claim made. There was no immediate independent verification of the video.

Ahh. I was wondering if you were placing doubt due to link which was used to relay the story.

Just look at the sort of life that's awaiting these folks. How could anyone live like that ?

And the taking of all those school girls. Pure evil.

Islamists Boko Haram kidnapped 300 girls from a school in Nigeria. They're selling the teenage girls for $12 apiece. Might explain why Bill Clinton was spotted at an Amscot Store getting a money order for $48.

I'd much rather talk about Shakira.

Man.... all white high-school. 800 white girls in four classes and not a single ass between 'em........

God and/or Goddess bless natural curves, health diets, and regular exercise.

Can't remember much more awesome than this video. What's not to love? Not only does it star two of the sexiest and most powerful Women in the world today, but it sounds awesome too.

If Shakira grew up as the only mexican-or-whatever in my school, she'd have been the Queen Bee in no time.

Sharia?

Nigerian militant boasts of abducting girls, with over 270 missing ( LA Times headline )

An extremist Nigerian insurgent leader boasted Monday that he had kidnapped more than 270 schoolgirls who three weeks ago were loaded into trucks by gunmen in the dead of night, according to a video released to Agence France-Presse.

( A what who huh ? )

"I abducted your girls. I will sell them in the market, by God ( He actually says Allah )," Abubakar Shekau said, according to the news service, which was reporting on a video showing the leader of the radical Islamist group Boko Haram.

I believe sharia law demands that a person lose at least one of their hands after listening to that song.

Yeah, me too. I know good Christians as well. And good Buddhists.
(Well actually, good luck finding a really fucked up Buddhist.)
But I agree: a head full of bad wiring is a thing of societally accepted norms, not individuals. Religion is a tool to that end for those in power.
Dogma is for dogs.

May I suggest the European cut of the pilot with some different scenes, a truncated ending to make it feel like a self-contained motion picture, and lots of curse words to make it "R"?

eBay or Amazon has it.

I had to smile while reading the progression of this thread after my post.

You might not have talked about what I was talking about, but boy did this hate-train get derailed, didn't it?

Honsetly, I never read the topic, I don't know what "sharia" is and don't honestly care to know, and I know the RWED well enough to know that there was probably a lot of arguing going on before.

"Touch Myself" was lost on me. She's sexy as hell, for sure, but for me it's kind of a Madonna thing. No kid today would think Madonna was sexy, and possibly that she was never sexy when seeing pics of her flabby veiney arms today. I didn't know why she made me feel that way when i saw her videos on MTV when I was like 4 years old, but I felt that I'd do anything she asked me to. Material Girl is so tame by today's standards, but I saw that video only one single time in my early development and even when I branched out with new fantasies it was always a cornerstone.

Why am I talking about it? You grew up with it or you didn't. If you did, and you're hetrosexual, it still holds a special place in your heart.

For whatever reason, MTV became a taboo thing since it was the only thing they could agree on, and I never really fought it. I was too busy playing video games and there were plenty of sources for derivative pleasure outside of MTV. So I was the latchkey kid that watched his two younger brothers and we watched Nick shows and Thundercats and TMNT. I didn't feel I was missing anything. Between Nick shows, sexy animated girls, JC Penny weekly ads and what was already a novel's worth of kinky sex fantasies after seeing about 100 or so Skinimax 2AM movies at only 13 years old, I didn't feel I was missing much.

I see the Dyvinals video now, and although I appreciate how it could be considered sexy by a lot of men and women, it never did it for me. I probably saw it 10 years after it came out, and as a kid who never saw her until 10 or 15 years later on the internet, I look at her and think that I've dated at least 4 women who were more attractive than she was. Granted, they're all well over 30 years old and married with at least one kid now.

Call me a dirty old dog, but I think you need to update your spank bank, my friend.

Girls Aloud's "Control of the Knife" perfomrance at 02 back in year "blah-blah".....

Control of the Knife is one of their B side songs that nobody ever heard unless they owned the CD or were at the concert or watched it on youtube. They have hundreds of videos like this, not to mention their amazingly hypnotic studio videos.

Not criticicing you or D.... just saying that there's so much more to appreciate now that everything has evolved nearly 20 years since your last favorite video.

Would I ever desire a hostile race of aliens to blast our planet to rubble without us even being aware of it happening before it happened? Of course not... what a silly question.

You might not be so sure of your answer while watching this video from Girls Aloud.

Thanks UK!

Do Right, Be Right. :)
