NDP conference in full effect

BBC takes a thoughtful look at the issues gripping the nation with a peg on the NDP conference and the rise of Gamal Mubarak.

AP says "Mubarak, Son Promise Reform in Egypt".

Pakistani media says reforms are being activated to avoid US pressure...

 

Finding a story
BBC cleans up the story, and provides a picture: At a towering 2,3m in height, Mohammed is reputedly Egypt's tallest man, and his gargantuan proportions have been a life-long source of grief. Now he's about to get his first pair of shoes.

 

Justice...
Six hangings in Sohag vendetta case...

Major stirring...
Ragab El-Banna's ideas on Islam and modernity made controversial by Al-Azhar's decision to ban them, posits the Christian Science Monitor.

Proper choice?
Islamophobe Daniel Pipes and prominent Egyptian Copts to speak at Coptic conference in Switzerland, according to this press release...

Meanwhile...
