In Sudan, an English teacher asked one of her students what they should call a teddy bear that is as part of a class project. The 7 yr old student thought his name was a good name and so did most of the class. The problem is the student's name is Muhammad. The religious in that wing-nuts in that country have a problem with this since it just happens to be their prophet's name as well and they want the teacher punished with 40 lashes - For naming a bear - Some one's got their rag on a bit too tight.

P.S. It was reported that her sentence is 15 days and deportation. She has already served 5 so she has 10 more remaining.
