This Is All Kinds Of Wrong of the Day: Saudi Arabia’s Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice (CPVPV) has the authority to order women with “tempting eyes” to cover them up, according to a committee spokesman.
Sheikh Motlab al-Nabet was quoted by the Egyptian news website Bikya Masr as saying that a member of the notorious Sharia-enforcing body was acting justly when he ordered a women to cover her “sexy eyes.”
The Saudi newspaper al-Watan reported that the woman’s husband was stabbed in the hand twice during an altercation over the decree, and had to be hospitalized.
The CPVPV is controversial even within Saudi itself, as its power to enforce Islamic laws comes from the king rather than the state.

Follow Up of the Day: The 32-year-old man arrested in connection with today’s twin terror attacks in Norway has been identified by local media as Anders Behring Breivik — a 6ft tall Norwegian with alleged ties to “right-wing extremist groups in eastern Norway.”
Breivik was arrested after opening fire on attendees of the annual Workers’ Youth League summer camp on the island of Utøya, killing dozens in the single deadliest shooting spree in modern history. Breivik has also been linked to the bombing of the Prime Minister’s office building that killed at least 7, having been reportedly spotted near the area two hours prior to the explosion. Police say he is not affiliated with Islamist organizations and likely acted alone.
Breivik has a Facebook page [UPDATE: Page has been deleted, PDF copy here (via)] on which he lists his religious views as “Christian” and his political views as “Conservative.” He also mentions his finance degrees, and the fact that he owns a company called Breivik Geofarm, which, according to government business records, specializes in the “growing of vegetables, melons, roots and tubers.”
Several days prior to the attack, a tweet was posted to a Twitter account associated with Breivik which states “One person with a belief is equal to the force of 100 000 who have only interests.” It’s worth noting that both Breivik’s Facebook and Twitter accounts did not exist until a few days ago.
Though his exact motives remain unverified at this time, it appears Breivik left a comment on “a Norwegian web site noted for criticism against the current immigration policies” recommending a post by well-known anti-Islam activist Pamela Geller.
He is currently being interrogated by police, and charges are expected to be formulated shortly.
