			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>George Michael must be deeply in love with his Lebanese boyfriend Fadi Fawaz to follow him to Beirut at such time! According to <a href="http://www.dailystar.com.lb/Entertainment/Celebrities/2012/May-21/174160-wham-george-michael-parties-in-beirut.ashx#axzz1vXEPQZ1S">The Daily Star</a>, the two were spotted at Iris rooftop bar and later at White nightclub over the weekend.</p>
<blockquote><p>Speaking to The Daily Star Monday, Jessica Bou-Abdou, marketing and PR Manager at Add Mind, a Public Relations company specializing in the food, beverage and hospitality industry, said Michael arrived at the Iris rooftop terrace at the An-Nahar building in Martyr’s Square, Beirut, for sunset where he enjoyed a couple of the swanky Restaurant-Bar’s signature cocktails.</p>
<p>Later in the evening, Michael was seen at exclusive night-spot White, near City Mall in Dora where he joined fellow revelers until sunrise. <em><a href="http://www.dailystar.com.lb/Entertainment/Celebrities/2012/May-21/174160-wham-george-michael-parties-in-beirut.ashx#axzz1vXEPQZ1S">Source</a></em></p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.plus961.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Tannoura-Maxi.jpg" rel="lightbox[4749]" title="Tannoura Maxi"><img class="size-medium wp-image-4750 aligncenter" title="Tannoura Maxi" src="http://www.plus961.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Tannoura-Maxi-202x300.jpg" alt="" width="202" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>According to <a href="http://www.akhbarlelnasher.com/node/32332">this article</a>, Tannoura Maxi has joined the list of banned movies from Lebanese cinemas after the Catholic Information Center requested the General Security to pull the movie from theaters.</p>
<p>I heard so much about the movie being lame and disrespecting to Christianity, but then again didn&#8217;t Nadine Labaki show goats inside a mosque in her latest movie &#8220;<a title="Nadine Labaki’s upcoming movie “W halla’ lawein?”" href="http://www.plus961.com/2011/08/nadine-labakis-upcoming-movie-w-halla-lawein/">W Halla&#8217; Lawein</a>&#8220;? Why can&#8217;t the General Security in Lebanon set a standard once and for all and apply it to all movies? And how effective is the ban anyway when you know beforehand that the movie is going to hit DVD stores whether you like it or not?</p>
<p>Anyway, I just feel sorry for Joe Bou Eid because it was pretty obvious that he was spending lot of money on promoting his movie.</p>

<p>City Mall is also planning to have something similar at their &#8220;Cinemacity Premier&#8221;, which is expected to have the largest screen in Lebanon with 400 stadium seats and a VIP section according to what they&#8217;re advertising at the mall.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For the first time in its history, 610 young girls made their way into the Internal Security Forces after announcing its will to recruit female volunteers earlier.</p>
<p>The video below shows the result of a 2 months training that 200 girls have received, and as you can see many of them are quite good looking! Getting arrested now seems like a pretty cool idea eh?!</p>
<p>On a serious note, I totally respect these women and believe that they&#8217;re much needed in our country.</p>
