May 19 (UPI) -- Four sailors have filed a lawsuit seeking to stop the U.S. Navy from forcing them to shave in violation of their religious beliefs. Three of the sailors, a Hasidic Jew and two Muslims, have either been denied a faith-based accommodation to have a neatly maintained beard or told that previous permission to have one is going to be rescinded, the suit says. The other sailor, who is Muslim, suffers from pseudofolliculitis barbae, or "razor bumps," and has had a beard for medical reasons but is required to shave every 30 days to prove he still gets painful swelling on his face each time he does, according to the suit. The suit alleges violations of the Religious Freedom...

Rarely does a locally-made movie entertain and inspire you to think at the same time. Heneral Luna, the sleeper hit of 2015, is the quintessential movie under this category. Not only did it become the highest grossing historical film in the country, but it also broke barriers in an industry that has long favored profit-driven, run-of-the-mill films over potential movie classics. Were it not for Artikulo Uno Productions that took a risk in giving life to this movie, ‘Heneral Luna’ probably would have been shelved forever, depriving us of a magnum opus that now reminds us of our own shortcomings, of the Filipinos’ long history of repeating history itself, and our reluctance to face our...

Facial hair in the military Facial hair in the military has been at various times common, prohibited, or an integral part of the uniform. In the armed forces and police of India, male Sikh servicemen are allowed to wear full beards as their religion expressly requires followers to do so. However, they are specifically required to "dress up their hair and beard properly". In fact, in Sikh-only units such as the Indian Army 's Sikh Regiment and Sikh Light Infantry there have been instances of personnel being transferred out of the unit by their commanding officer for their refusal to wear a beard and grow their hair out as required by the Sikh religion, although no official regulation exists...
