Aussie reputation in the gutters!

Australia had always been known for its sense of fair play or so we all thought.but since the affair of Dr Haneef,that has been proven to be a lie in so many ways.first of all these anti terror laws are so reminiscent of the Red hunt days in the united states especially during the McCarthy era.anyway these anti terror laws are more directed against the ordinary citizens and they literally trample over a persons civil rights as well as spit on those.it is right that every country in the world must have anti terror laws so as to deal with terrorists but when one frames such laws one should also take into account the countries constitution and the civil liberties framed under such.
In the case of Dr Haneef,that certainly did not happen.his civil rights were trampled by the Australian federal police who seem to be only too eager to break laws in their eagerness to frame Haneef for a crime that WAS not a crime in any one's eyes.lending a SIM card to a friend so that the talktime should not go to waste is something we all have done and still do.to use that as a pretext and to label that person as a terrorist is taking things too far.Haneef had been jailed under such dubious charges for nearly a month and in 'solitary confinement'.imagine getting locked up for nearly 23 hrs everyday all because you had lent your SIM card to your friend.
And what is really disgusting is the way that the federal police tried to cover their tracks once they realised their mistake.they tried to make false entries into Haneef's diary or so it is alleged and pretty much went on a publicity blitz labelling him as a terrorist to all and sundry and gave advice to the minister to deport him.the Australian government as well as the Federal police will have to answer some very serious charges to both the Australian public and the world.if anyone had seen the movie'mississippi burning',this case of Dr Haneef,resembles the case of those civil right activists who were falsely charged and then killed by the racist cops.
And now we have this admission that Dr Haneef is innocent but will the trauma end there.if one is proven to be wrong then the right thing to do is to make restitution.so far i do not think that the federal police or the immigration minister has shown any remorse or have apologised in any form or manner to Dr Haneef and his family for the trauma that they have put them through.the so called fair reputation of Australia is indeed in the gutters and the sooner they address this fiasco and make restitution,the sooner this reputation will be restored but i feel that it is too little,too late.

The cat that sees your death!

What else is new?i get the feeling that these days i am getting more and more jaded and nothing seems to surprise me much.Cats were honored by the Ancient Egyptians and revered as the gods of the underworld.they were thought of as companions to the people who took their journey to the afterlife.Cats have always been associated with Mysticism in more ways than one ever since the age of the Modern man.
Maybe it is their eyes.anyway the recent 'ghost' cat to make the headlines is currently located at Steere House Nursing and Rehabilitation Center,providence.the cat is a part of this hospital and makes rounds and for some reason is able to sense when patients are about to die.so when he makes such a call,he goes to the patient and curls up beside them.it seems that the Ancient Egyptians were right about cats after all.this is one story that is turning out to be a 'Meooow'!

We all want our children to do the best as far as academics go and often our children may not perform to the best of their abilities for a myriad of reasons which i am not going to go into now.my child,had a huge problem with reading and math.she stammered a lot especially when asked to read in the class in front of all her classmates and often stammered.and for some reason she could not understand basic mathematics.that's when i decided that she required some tutoring and not just any tutoring but some innovative tutoring that made sure that the children had fun learning and are able to retain what they have learnt for a long time to come.
Truth be told,i certainly did not expect any miracles overnight but that is exactly what had happened in the case of my little one.it seems that she only suffered from a lack of self confidence and this innovative tutoring methods has worked out a miracle in the case of my little one.now not only can she read out an entire book report but gladly goes to the board to work out the math problems in her class and all of them correctly.her math teacher is still singing her praises.just what a parent needs to hear.so if you need a innovative tutor for your child do not hesitate to drop in!

South Korean hostage crisis!

The south Korean hostage crisis seems to get murkier day by day with the Afghanistan officials running here and there but in the end ,not accomplishing much by any one's standards.already one of the hostages has been shot in cold blood by the erstwhile Taliban militants.according to certain police sources,the hostage in question was sick and could not walk therefore he was shot by the militants and get this,right on his birthday.his aging mother who was in south Korea at that time was waiting for a phone call from her son so that she could wish him happy birthday.
that really takes the cake and et all.with the allied forces also present in Afghanistan,couldn't they track these militants down and eradicate them once and for all.what about the women hostages,could they not be released.as for the demands of the militants,well one of them wants Taliban prisoners to be released,the other wants money while the other militants are not sure about what they want and already there have been arguments and small skirmishes amongst themselves,according to certain well placed sources in the Taliban.shouldn't this be the time when the government forces should attack them,especially when the militants are disorganised and confused??

The 'C' codes-Best way to shop!!

THIS IS A PAID REVIEW!



The age of the Internet and when we speak of 'coupons',we are not talking of bits and pieces of paper but rather talking about online coupon codes.such online codes are a boon to every online shopper.most of the online shops often reward their customers with such codes and also one can buy such codes online as well.my recent shopping experience at EBay was an eye opener of sorts,i managed to get some online coupon codes which were at sale at EBay and i shopped there and got some fantastic prices for the items that i had bought there.
These codes not only get you a heavy discount on prices but they are also very useful in buying items that are much in demand.for example,one of the recent items that i had bought online was the recent harry potter book.we all know that there was a great demand for this book,not only did i get the book before everyone else but i got it at a fantastic price.one of the other places that you can go for coupon codes and use then there is KeepCash!
so go there and check it out!

The nuclear deal may get inked sooner than later!

With things going the way it has been for both the United States and India,getting the Nuclear deal through had transformed from being in mutual interest to quite essential for the relationship between the world's oldest and the largest democracies.the current political government in India,the Congress may seem gung-ho on the Nuclear deal but to the Hoi-polloi of India's literate,they would have been extremely happy had this deal fallen through.as far as the literate citizens are concerned they regard this deal as a loss of sovereignty.to be fair,this deal is indeed highly intrusive so this opinion on their part is not exactly surprising.
But now that the deal is almost sure to get inked through,the question especially in the minds of George bush and Manmohan singh is,what next?although this deal may indeed be a highly intrusive deal,India should now concentrate on acquiring additional sources of fuel supplies and not solely depend on nuclear power in the future.what is more India should find some way of converting the huge amounts of thorium that it has and utilise that as nuclear fuel so as to insulate itself against any breakdown in the supply of nuclear fuel to its reactors.politics is cheap and dirty.you never know if the deal signed by the last government will be honored by the current one.after all,"there is no honor amongst......"
