Asha-Rose Migiro, 50, becomes the first woman and first African to hold the position of Deputy UN Secretary-General, a post created in 1998. When she made history last year, becoming Tanzania's first woman Foreign Minister, some people started referring to her as the "Condoleezza Rice of Tanzania"

Journalist fined over islam joke


A Court in Casablanca has given two Morrocan journalists suspended sentences of three years for de-faming Islam and breaching public morality. The journalists' Weekly Magazine had published an article entitled "How Morroccan's laugh at religion, sex and politics". The Court banned publication of the Magazine for two months and fined two journalists about $8000.


The journalists said the jokes they published were in common usage. Their lawyer says they plan to appeal against the sentence. The prosecutors had urged sentences of three to five years, saying journalists must balance liberties and responsibilities. Meanwhile, the two journalists, backed by many international organizations, feel their prosecution was a blow to press freedom.
