Red Hot Chili Peppers live in Beirut

Here are some early pictures of the RHCP concert yesterday in Beirut uploaded by BeirutNightLife. I was told it was one of the best concerts in years. More photos will follow during the day. As you can see, the BDS call for boycotting the concert was very successful .

We need a slogan for the Pope’s visit …

Beirut/NTSC is spot on. Pope Benedictus XVI is coming next week and we still haven't figured out a slogan. It was much easier with John Paul II but it's gonna be a hassle with Benedictus XVI. I suppose we can use "Taratata Benoit16" or "Jeyeen Nsalle wou Nor2ouss kermel Benedictus" lol! Suggestions anyone?
