Al-Qaida warns Muslims: Time to get out of U.S.
The new al-Qaida field commander in Afghanistan is calling for Muslims to leave the U.S. – particularly Washington and New York – in anticipation of a major terror attack to rival Sept. 11, according to an interview by a Pakistani journalist.
Abu Dawood told Hamid Mir, a reporter who has covered al-Qaida and met with Osama bin Laden, the attack is being coordinated by Adnan el-Shukrijumah and suggests it may involve some form of weapon of mass destruction smuggled across the Mexican border.
"Our brothers are ready to attack inside America. We will breach their security again," he is quoted as saying. "There is no timeframe for our attack inside America; we can do it any time."
As WND has previously reported, el-Shukrijumah is a trained nuclear technician and accomplished pilot who has been singled out by bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri to serve as the field commander for the next terrorist attack on U.S. soil.

Priest sought after woman's murder
Police have obtained a warrant of arrest for a Durban priest who allegedly strangled a businesswoman to death.
Gonnie Thangavelo Govender has not been seen since the body of Premla Pillay was found at the Shree Ramulu Temple in Puntan's Hill last week.
Pillay had been bound and police said she was strangled to death.
The administration manager and Westville mother of two had left a prayer lamp at the temple to be blessed a few days earlier.
"My brother, Thirushen, had just bought a new flat in Johannesburg. My mom bought him a holy lamp and had taken it to the temple to be blessed," Pillay's youngest son Kershen told the Daily News.

Willie Nelson cited for drug possession
Willie Nelson and several members of his band were issued misdemeanor citations for drug possession early today during a traffic stop in Saint Martin Parish.
The traffic stop was conducted on Interstate 10 near Breaux Bridge.
Trooper Willie Williams says troopers smelled a strong odor of marijuana when the driver opened the bus door.
During a search of the bus, Williams say approximately 1 1/2 pounds of marijuana and approximately 2/10 of a pound of mushrooms were located on the bus.
The 73-year-old Nelson of Spicewood, Texas; 59-year-old Tony Sizemore of Saint Cloud, Fla.; 75-year-old Bobbie Nelson of Briarcliff, Texas; 54-year-old Gates Moore of Austin, Texas; and 50-year-old David Anderson of Dallas, Texas were issued citations for possession of mushrooms and possession of marijuana and released.
THE WORLD'S FIRST PENIS TRANSPLANT
DOCTORS have carried out the world's first penis transplant.
A 44-year-old man injured in an accident earlier this year was given the organ of a brain-dead patient half his age.
Surgeons in China who performed the procedure claim it was a success. The man was able to urinate through his new organ within 10 days.
But the team said the donated penis was removed after two weeks due to "a severe psychological problem with the recipient and his wife".
Although male sex organs have been re-attached before, it is the first time another man's penis has been grafted on.
During a complex 15-hour operation, docs stitched nerve fibres and blood vessels to the donated four-inch organ.

Unfinished Tolkien work to be published
An unfinished tale by J.R.R. Tolkien has been edited by his son into a completed work and will be released next spring, the U.S. and British publishers announced Monday.
Christopher Tolkien has spent the past 30 years working on "The Children of Hurin," an epic tale his father began in 1918 and later abandoned. Excerpts of "The Children of Hurin," which includes the elves and dwarves of Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings" and other works, have been published before.
"It has seemed to me for a long time that there was a good case for presenting my father's long version of the legend of the `Children of Hurin' as an independent work, between its own covers," Christopher Tolkien said in a statement.
The new book will be published by Houghton Mifflin in the United States and HarperCollins in England.
J.R.R. Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings Trilogy" has sold more than 50 million copies and was also adapted into a blockbuster, Academy Award-winning trio of films. A stage version is scheduled to open next year.
Parents Kidnap Daughter To Force Abortion
A 19-year-old North Yarmouth, Maine, woman has accused her parents of kidnapping her after she told them she was pregnant.
Katelyn Kampf told police that her parents, Nicholas Kampf, 54, and Lola Kampf, 53, kidnapped her Friday, forcing her into their car to take her to New York state for an emergency abortion.
In court documents, police said Katelyn told them her parents were upset Friday after she told them she was pregnant, chased her into their yard, tied her hands and feet and loaded her into their car. She said she was also gagged.
When the Kampfs stopped for a restroom break in Salem, she escaped and contacted police, Katelyn Kampf said.
New Hampshire State Police quickly tracked down the couple in their Lexus. Officers said they were amazed at what they found inside.
Sgt. Ron Peddle said, "The victim informed officers of what type of vehicle her parents were in. They located the vehicle close by and placed both parents under arrest. Inside the vehicle they found duct tape, scissors -- and eventually we found a rifle and ammunition."

Necrophilia is OK in Wisconsin
A judge on Friday dismissed charges of attempted sexual assault against three men accused of trying to dig up a woman's body to have sex with the corpse, noting that Wisconsin has no law against necrophilia.
The men still face lesser charges.
Twins Nicholas and Alexander Grunke, 20, and Dustin Radke, 20, were arrested after an alleged attempt to dig up the body of a 20-year-old woman who was killed Aug. 27 in a motorcycle crash. Officials said a caller reported suspicious activity in the cemetery Sept. 2, and deputies found someone had dug down to her vault.
Authorities said the three were not acquainted with the woman but had seen an obituary with her photo.
Circuit Judge George Curry said that while there was no law that addressed necrophilia, there was enough evidence to continue the case because of criminal damage to property and the alleged attempt to break into a burial vault.
Jackie Chan admits acting in porn movie
KUNGFU film star Jackie Chan yesterday admitted that he acted in a porn movie 31 years ago, responding to a report revealed by Hong Kong media, Information Times reported today.
"I had to do anything I could to make a living 31 years ago, but I don't think it's a big deal, even Marlon Brando used to be exposed in his movies," Chan said.
"The porn movie at that time was more conservative than the current films," he said.
Hong Kong netizens tipped local media that Chan was in the porn movie "All in the Family" in 1975, with a porn movie star who was famous at that time.
The Hong Kong made movie, directed by Zhu Mu, was defined as a comedy. Dean Shek, Tien Chun, and Sammo Hung were also co-stars.

This website has been created in an effort to help women and men visualize and understand female reproductive and sexual anatomy. Traditional images present the female anatomy in a 2D (Two Dimensional) format that does not convey its true 3D (Three Dimensional) nature. Since the female reproductive and sexual organs are for the most part hidden within the body we cannot see them when we examine the female body from the outside. As a result we often develop and hold the believe that the female genital organs are flat, or simply do not exist at all. We frequently do not realize the true size, shape, and complexity of the female sexual and reproductive organs. This presents a barrier to understanding female sexual function.
