Pope Benedict the 16th will later today celbrate an open-air Easter mass in St. Peter's Square in Rome. That wil be followed by his traditional "urbi et orbi" -- to the city and the world -- blessing. On Saturday, Pope Benedict baptised one of Italy's most prominent and outspoken Muslim commentators, who was among seven converts to Roman Catholicism during an Easter vigil mass at St. Peter's Basilica.
