[1] From: "Prof R K Gupta-India" <cityju@rediffmail.com Date: Tue Jul 22, 2008 7:43 am Subject: Throw out UPA: Vote of confidence and hapless Indians The most ruling party in India, congress is no more the original congress. It was divided and fragmented several times. People should understand this. It is a faction called Indira congress which has now dropped all prefixes and suffixes. In 60 years it has divided society on religion and caste lines, enocuraged communal riots, promoted rampant corruption and unaccountability of public servants, made immense amount of money and stashed away in Swish accounts and other places and can be called a traitors' party. The moral fibre of the country has been systematically destroyed. Near anarchy is there in the country. Man Mohan is utter failure and fraudulent economist. He is a mere bureaucrat and not elected representative. He is a puppet. There is no reason for increase in prices in India as India is self sufficent in most of commodities. Blatant and naked capitalism and loot is going on in the country. On top of it this person is obstinately wagging the tail before american masters and compromising national security of country and its freedom of decision making. Such person has no reason to be inpublic administration. Most of Congressmen deserve to be behind bars, the present ones and ex-ones. Generations won't exonerate the present parlimanetarians who for money and chairs want to support the corrupt and boneless congress minority led UPA. It will be crime against nation. We advise MPs not to fall for horse trading and self interest and vote out congress UPA. Enough is enough. They should not loose this opportunity to show they are clean. There is no merits in nuclear deal since only 5-10% power can be generated in next 20 years by this route and terms settled for purchase is harmful.

Italian news agency ANSA reported that the incident had occurred on Saturday at the beach of Torregaveta, west of Naples, southern Italy, where the two girls had earlier been swimming in the sea with two other Roma girls. ? Reports said they had gone to the beach to beg and sell trinkets. ? Local news reports said the four girls found themselves in trouble amid fierce waves and strong currents. ? Emergency services responded 10 minutes after a distress call was made from the beach and two lifeguards attended the girls upon hearing their screams. ? Two of them were pulled to safety but rescuers failed to reach the other two in time to save them. ? ? Watch why the photos have generated anger ? ? The Web site of the Archbishop of Naples said the girls were cousins named Violetta and Cristina, aged 12 and 13. ? Their bodies were eventually laid out on the sand under beach towels to await collection by police. ? Photographs show sunbathers in bikinis and swimming trunks sitting close to where the girls' feet can be seen poking out from under the towels concealing their bodies. ? A photographer who took photos at the scene told CNN the mood among sunbathers had been one of indifference. ? Other photos show police officers lifting the bodies into coffins and carrying them away past bathers reclined on sun loungers. ? "While the lifeless bodies of the girls were still on the sand, there were those who carried on sunbathing or having lunch just a few meters away," Italian newspaper La Repubblica reported. Italian media appalled by Neapolitan tragedy? U. N. blasts Italy over Roma 'discrimination' Corriere della Sera said that a crowd of curious onlookers that had formed around the bodies quickly dispersed. ? "Few left the beach or abandoned their sunbathing. When the police from the mortuary arrived an hour later with coffins, the two girls were carried away between bathers stretched out in the sun." ? The incident also attracted condemnation from the Archbishop of Naples, Cardinal Crecenzio Seppe. "Indifference is not an emotion for human beings," Seppe wrote in his parish blog. ? "To turn the other way or to mind your own business can sometimes be more devastating than the events that occur." Recent weeks have seen heightened tensions between Italian authorities and the country's Roma minority amid a crackdown by Silvo Berlusconi's government targeting illegal immigrants and talk by government officials of a "Roma emergency" that has seen the 150,000-strong migrant group blamed for rising street crime. That has provided justification for police raids on Roma camps and controversial government plans to fingerprint all Roma -- an act condemned by the European Parliament and United Nations officials as a clear act of racial discrimination. ? Popular resentment against Romanies has also seen Roma camps near Naples attacked and set on fire with petrol bombs by local residents. ---------------- [3] From: Abhiyya <abhiyya@yahoo.com Date: Tue Jul 22, 2008 1:02 pm Subject: An endgame with no clear winners reality check - Siddharth Varadarajan abhiyya Offline Send Message Edit Membership "To the negative consequences of this naked power play must be added the folly of submitting the fate of the party and government to the dictates of the American electoral datebook rather than the rhythms of the Indian political system. It is no secret that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress president Sonia Gandhi are moving full speed ahead on the nuclear deal because the Bush administration will relinquish office at the end of the year." ? "If the Congress was unable to carry the Left along and believed the nuclear deal to be an issue of such urgency, it should have sought a fresh electoral mandate as early as last November." An endgame with no clear winners reality check Siddharth Varadarajan http://www.hindu.com/2008/07/22/stories/2008072253810900.htm Whether the UPA government survives or falls, none of the principal protagonists will be able to walk away from the present stand-off with a sense of having accomplished their long-run objectives. - PHOTO: SHANKER CHAKRAVARTY With Regards Abi ---------------- [4] From: Pradip Kumar Datta <pradip200@yahoo.com Date: Tue Jul 22, 2008 5:38 pm Subject: BJP MPs showing wads of cash in Lok Sabha BJP MPs showing wads of cash in Lok Sabha 22 Jul 2008, 1614 hrs IST, TIMESOFINDIA.

Refer to article published in India Today dated 14th July 2008 Earlier also I have been writing about harmful effects of mobile and its other social and psychological ill effects. In latest article it is revealed that there are strong indications that mobile radiations may cause brain tumour and ear tumour and also loss of hearing by prolonged use. It is also feared that keeping mobile in hip or side pocket of trousers may cause fertility impairment problems in males. In one experiment it was shown that an egg put between 2 connected mobiles underwent boiling effect of its proteins after 25 minutes. The nuisance value, irritaion, distraction and abuse of mobiles is already a problem. Therefore it is advisable, we avoid use of mobile as much as we can and sleep away from a mobile set and better switch it off in night. We should also avoid keeping mobile in shirt pocket near heart or in trouser pockets (for males).We should also live at least 5 kms away from transmission tower. In no circumstance one should talk on mobile for more than 5-6 minutes and use mobile on both ears and not only one ear regularly. With so many risks and nuisance value, should not we make use of landlines and use mobiles sparingly? For whom mobiles are useful? It is like doctors, policemen, mechanics and plumbers and accident relief services. All the best ( Note: the article and other comments above are based on various article sources on mobile risks. There is no conclusive study but scientists agree that mobiles do have possible threat for brain tumour and earlobe problems) Prof R K gupta www. indiaforce. org www. scms. in [The scientific authenticity of this article is to be verified ....the.moderator] ------ |
