FILE - In this Dec. 31, 2013 file photo, Sharia police officers stand guard at a check point set up to prevent people from celebrating New Year's eve in Banda Aceh, Aceh Province, Indonesia. An Indonesian woman who was gang-raped by men who accused her of having extramarital sex may be caned publicly for violating Islamic law, an official said Wednesday, May 7, 2014. The 25-year-old widow said she was raped by eight men who allegedly found her having sex with a married man in her house. The men reportedly beat the man, doused the two with sewage, and then turned them over to Islamic police in conservative Aceh province, the only province in the world's most populous Muslim country that implements Islamic sharia law. New Year's celebrations are widespread in Indonesia except in Aceh, where Islamic clerics prohibit Muslims from celebrating the festivities. (AP Photo/Heri Juanda, File)

Dalai Lama stands with chairman of the Norwegian Nobel Committee Thorbjorn Jagland, right, and deputy chairwoman Kaci Kullmann Five from the Nobel Peace Prize committee, in Oslo, Wednesday May 7, 2014. Norway's decision to shun the Dalai Lama during his visit to Oslo this week has left a sour taste for a country that prides itself in being a beacon of human rights in the world. Unlike on his previous visits to Norway, no government officials will meet the 1989 Nobel Peace Prize laureate and Tibetan spiritual leader, who arrived in Oslo on Wednesday for a three-day stay.
