Outraged Muslims are demanding Nike recall an 'offensive' line of trainers because the logo looks like Allah's name in Arabic.

Saiqa Noreen launched a petition to pull the Air Max 270 shoe and has accused the sportswear giant of 'blasphemy'.

The petition, which has gained more than 6,000 signatures in just hours, blasts Nike for allowing God's name to be 'trampled, kicked and become soiled with mud or even filth'.

The design features the words Air Max spelled out in a custom, joined-up font on the sole of the shoe, which was released last year.

In Muslim culture showing the sole of your shoe is seen as the height of disrespect as it implies you want to hurt someone with it.

The shoe is considered dirty because it touches the ground and is associated with the foot, the lowest party of the body.

'It is outrageous and appalling of Nike to allow the name of God on a shoe. This is disrespectful and extremely offensive to Muslim's and insulting to Islam,' Ms Noreen said.

'Islam teaches compassion, kindness and fairness towards all. We urge Nike to recall this blasphemous and offensive shoe and all products with the design logo resembling the word Allah from worldwide sales immediately.

'We also request stricter scrutiny of products before they enter the market. I urge all Muslim's and everyone who respects the freedom of religion to sign this petition.'

Nike became embroiled in a similar controversy in 1997 when it was forced to recall thousands of pairs of Air Bakin' sneakers following outcry from Muslim customers.

Flame like letters with the word 'Air' written on the heel could be read as Allah in Arabic script.

Ms Noreen added: 'After recalling trainers in 1997, which had a similar logo depicting the word Allah, Nike claimed to have tighten scrutiny on logo design. So why has a similar design been approved?'

A Nike spokesman said: 'Nike respects all religions and we take concerns of this nature seriously.

'The Air Max logo was designed to be a stylised representation of Nike's Air Max trademark. It is intended to reflect the Air Max brand only.

'Any other perceived meaning or representation is unintentional.'

"Pelosium" :-- New scientific discovery!

"Pelosium" :

  A major research institution has just announced the discovery of the densest element yet known to science. The new element has been named Pelosium. Pelosium has one neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons and 224 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 311.

  These particles are held together by dark particles called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons The symbol of Pelosium is PU. Pelosium's mass actually increases over time, as morons randomly interact with various elements in the atmosphere and become assistant deputy neutrons within the Pelosium atom, leading to the formation of iso-dopes.

  This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some scientists to believe that Pelosium is formed whenever morons reach a certain quantity in concentration. This hypothetical quantity/concentration is referred to as Critical Morass. When catalyzed with money, Pelosium activates CNN-adnauseum, an element that radiates orders of magnitude more energy, albeit as incoherent noise, since it has half as many peons but twice as many morons as Pelosium.

Soros, Birchers fight constitutional fix to limit Obama, Congress

A nationwide drive by mostly conservative states to throttle President Obama and Washington's grab for more power and taxes is running into an odd left-right combo of opposition: Liberal financier George Soros and the conservative John Birch Society.

Documents provided to Secrets show that the Soros-backed Montana Budget and Policy Center recently urged the state's lawmakers to reject the so-called "convention of states" pushed by advocates such as radio talk show host Mark Levin as a way to pass constitutional amendments limiting the power of the federal government and especially the Supreme Court.

In an email to lawmakers, the liberal group called on supportive Montana lawmakers to "direct your questions" to the John Birch Society, which believes a states convention, provided in Article V of the Constitution, won't stop Washington from expanding its power and taxing authority.

The opposition effort succeeded last month when the Montana House rejected a convention.

Already facing liberals who fear that a convention would trim spending on their causes, the proponent conservative group Convention of States is also facing an unusual Soros partner in the John Birch Society, which believes the answer to Washington is to cut spending and the bureaucracy.

"Until the massive bureaucracy that is part of the federal government is curtailed, downsized or eliminated, federal officials will find a way around the Constitution no matter what amendments are ratified," the group said. Groups like Birch oppose the convention out of concerns that the conservatives running it will go too far to limit government powers and fear that the public isn't smart enough on the Constitution to change it.

But that opposition is being forcefully rebutted by Michael Farris, director of the Convention of States project for Citizens for Self-Governance. In a 23-page memo, he argued that simply trying to choke Washington's power by sending more conservatives to Congress won't work.

"Trying harder with the same old tactics won't work," he wrote.

Levin, Farris and other supporters are focusing on the power the U.S. Supreme Court has in interpreting the Constitution and claim that decisions like a recent one endorsing much of Obamacare violated the document.
