Pakistan's failing bid at democracy exemplified by wheeling & dealing
By Zahid Hussain, Dawn/Asia News Network Thursday, January 31, 2013, 11:05 am TWN
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan -- It is a season of defections and of new alliances as the political parties gear up for the coming elections in Pakistan. Horse-trading is the game political parties are engaged in, partaking in intense wheeling and dealing, vying to win over the influential and powerful "electables."
For these power elites it is also all about managing and strengthening family and clan interests. They will obviously go with the highest bidder and where the opportunities lie. There is no political ideology involved when it comes to the power game.
Hence it did not come as a surprise when Makhdoom Ahmed Mehmood ditched his long affiliation with the Pakistan Muslim League (PML)-Functional faction led by Pir Pagara, who also happens to be his cousin, to accept the offer by President Zardari to become governor of Punjab.
The move by the crafty president was not only aimed at pulling out the rug from under Pir Pagara who had joined hands with Nawaz Sharif to undermine the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) in Sindh, but also to strengthen his party's electoral support base in south Punjab.
Weeks later the new governor announced at a public rally — in the presence of another cousin and former prime minister Yousuf Raza Gilani — that his three sons, one of them a member of the National Assembly and another a member of the Punjab Assembly, had joined the PPP. The decision was said to have been taken in the best interest of the country and democracy.
Another interesting defection to the PPP which made media headlines last week was that of Saifuddin Khosa, a PML-Nawaz (PML-N) member of the National Assembly. The son of Zulfikar Khosa, a senior adviser to the chief minister of Punjab, Saifuddin switched sides accusing his party of betraying its supporters. It is interesting that it took him so long and close to the elections to realize that. It is certainly more to do with local political dynamics than any principled position.
Such defections have not only benefited the PPP. The PML-N and some other political parties, abandoning their so-called principled positions, have also welcomed turncoats in their ranks.
It is not that party-hopping is something new in Pakistani politics. There was one instance where almost the entire treasury bench of the Punjab Assembly switched sides in 1993 and then returned to the ranks a week later when political fortunes turned around. Similarly, the majority of PML-N members joined the military-sponsored Quaid faction after the coup that ousted the Nawaz Sharif government in 1999.

text: ARLINGTON, Texas, June 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Six Flags Hurricane Harbor, the largest water park in North Texas, prepares to offer bigger, better and wetter thrills for guests this summer heat with the opening of two phenomenal water slides. Typhoon Twister and Tsunami Surge were previewed today by media and VIP guests. The slides open to the public on Saturday, June 22, 2013. To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click: http://www.multivu.com/mnr/62174-six-flags-hurricane-harbor-new-water-slides-typhoon-twister-tsunami-surge (Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130620/MM33658) Typhoon Twister allows guests to board slides built for two for an entertaining ride down a 68-foot enclosed tunnel and into a bowl-shaped slide. After spinning around multiple times in the belly of the slide, riders are thrust through a corkscrew exit into a splash pool. Guests looking to take their thrill-seeking up a level will enjoy Tsunami Surge. Riders are sent twisting and turning down an enclosed tunnel while they build up speed to take on a 40-foot wave slide on the other side. Guests experience zero-gravity as they surge to the top of the slide before gliding down to the landing pool. "This is a very exciting time for our park and our guests. These new slides, along with the overall enhancements that have been made to the park this season, should make for a more enjoyable, thrilling and overall fun-filled experience for our guests during their visit," said Steve Martindale, Six Flags Hurricane Harbor park president. Each slide is decked out with a colorful design beckoning guests to take a ride: Typhoon Twister is wrapped in vibrant orange and green and Tsunami Surge is black, white and green. The new slide complex is in the southwest corner of the park. Six Flags Gold Pass Holders get an exclusive sneak peek of the new slides on June 20 and all Season Pass Holders will get advanced exclusive ride time on June 21. Six Flags Hurricane Harbor guests can get the best benefits and enjoy two great parks for one price when they purchase four or more Six Flags Hurricane Harbor/Six Flags Over Texas Combo Gold Passes.

The Hype Men, recent liberators of some of Kanye West's earliest production circa 2001, have dropped off the second and final batch of 'Ye's lost beat CDs for public consumption.
A new set of beats featuring 19 rare tracks find Mr. West in a more quirky creative space. Whereas the first CD featured 25 original tracks of Kanye's more familiar sped-up soul sampled sound, the second set skews more toward electronic and percussive instruments.
The whole collection, a must have for Kanye stans and production nerds, can now be found at DJBooth.net.

New Delhi, Jan 24 (UNI) The Supreme Court today adjourned till February 12 the hearing of the appeal filed by Siddharth Vashisht alias Manu Sharma undergoing life imprisonment in the Jessica Lall murder case.
Sharma, son of former Haryana Minister Vinod Sharma, had challenged his conviction and sentence in the murder case.
The acquittal of Sharma and other accused by the trial court had led to huge public outcry and subsequently the Delhi High Court reversed the order of acquittal and sentenced Sharma to life imprisonment holding him guilty of killing Jessica Lall for refusing liquor to him and his friends, in odd hours in night in 1999 at a restuarant, run by socialite Bina Ramani in Mehrauli.
Vikas Yadav, son of former Rajya Sabha member D P Yadav, is also serving four years imprisonment for the destruction of evidence.
The present Commissioner of Delhi Police Y S Dhadwal was transferred out of Delhi on the allegations that he was present on the spot along with other senior police officers of the state at the time of the commission of crime.
A bench comprising Chief Justice K G Balakrishnan and Justices R V Raveendran and J M Panchal adjourned the hearing. Senior counsel Ram Jethmalani is appearing for Sharma who is also seeking suspension of sentence and his release on bail till the final disposal of his appeal by the apex court.

Terrible things may be happening in the Middle East and parts of Africa, but August is usually regarded as the silly season for press and public in Britain, and this month is proving to be no exception.
One need look no further for an example of this than the inordinate degree of attention devoted last week to the admission by Alexander "Boris" Johnson that he is indeed planning to stand for parliament, in time, he hopes, for the May 2015 general election.
It turns out that your correspondent had a sixth sense about this. I had been invited by my old friend Dr Gerard Lyons to attend the launch of his new report on Europe at the headquarters of Bloomberg, the financial news agency, in Finsbury Square, London.
However, when I arrived there the cameras and massed band of groupies soon made me realise that this was a media event, and that, with due respect to Dr Lyons, they were all waiting for the star attraction: none other than the Mayor of London himself.
How shall I put it ? Well, let us just say that I made an excuse and scarpered – off to my local coffee bar, still in Islington, but north of Finsbury.
Now, I have known Boris for years as an acquaintance, and, like most people, I find him very entertaining. He is not, however, in the same league as my new acquaintance, the comedian Paul Whitehouse, whom I happened to bump into at the coffee bar, and with whom I was having an interesting chat about the relevance of Karl Marx to modern capitalism when Steve, the co-proprietor, told us the news from Bloomberg about Boris.
I am no more of a conspiracy theorist than the next man or woman, but the thought immediately occurred that this was a wonderful way for the No 10 spin machine – whose members would, of course, profess total ignorance – of diverting attention from the huge and potentially lasting, damage to the government caused by Baroness Warsi's honourable resignation over David Cameron's Pontius Pilate approach to Gaza.
The link between the mayor and Gerard Lyons is that the latter, after a long career as an economist with Standard Chartered and other financial institutions, has been serving as Boris's economic adviser.
His report, which the mayor has endorsed, concludes that the UK is better off within a "reformed" European Union. Lyons emphasises that his "main case is to stay and reform and position the EU in a changing world economy," adding "but the key thing is that it depends on the policies pursued".
I have seldom disagreed with Lyons over the years, but it seems to me that he and Johnson are far too relaxed about the prospect of leaving the EU if others do not do what they want. They are in danger of constructing men of straw here, because anyone who ventures beyond these shores will know that there is plenty of support for "reform" within the EU anyway.
But the idea that, after decades of trying to join in the old days, we should blithely depart and then try to negotiate special terms for UK plc strikes me as unrealistic, not to say a waste of time and resources.
We already have the perfect deal: we are members of the single market for goods – which will eventually be extended to services – and membership of the EU is important for trade negotiations, defence, environmental policy and many other areas. Moreover, we are the holders of a "get out of jail free" card with regard to the eurozone – a concession that would not be available to an independent Scotland.
It has been noted that Johnson's "coming out" on both his electoral intentions and his increasing Euroscepticism took place at the same venue – Bloomberg's London office – as David Cameron chose when he committed the Conservatives to a referendum on our EU membership, should he be re-elected.
It is not just Johnson's apparent move further in the direction of Euroscepticism that concerns me: it is also the fact that behind that jovial carapace lurks a deeply rightwing ideologue, whose Thatcher lecture last year called for further shrinking of the state come what may. In this, his thinking is akin to that of the man he is thought to rival for the succession to David Cameron, namely one George Osborne.
Which brings us to the third prominent politician to have made a major pronouncement chez Bloomberg in recent years. I refer to the shadow chancellor, Ed Balls, who, in August 2010, made a remarkably prescient speech about the likely consequences of George Osborne's austerity policy. When I heard a rightwing commentator on Newsnight refer to "the discredited Ed Balls", I was reminded that, beneath the banter and the teasing, many Conservatives actually respect and fear Balls. So it suits them fine when dissident members of Labour's ranks call for the dismissal of this formidable shadow chancellor.
As the party conference season approaches, we shall return to this subject. For now, let us be content with remembering that Balls played a major role in thwarting Tony Blair's plan to take us into the eurozone, with its heavily deflationary bias. And – unlike Messrs Cameron and Johnson – Balls is well aware that it is in our national interest not to take risks with our membership of the EU.

Preface: Just this past week, in a training seminar, I heard the leader say: "I'd like to be the one to steer the ship." The context was regarding being in charge of things in a business.
It grates on my nerves, knowing it has its place to connect the analogy with business, but as part of the day's instruction, the discussion of moving from the "one person band level" to being the one who conducts was an important message. "Steering the Ship" is about being in total control, ergo, my view is it puts you mentally right back into the "one person band arena."
For readers who have upper level management experience, this won't be a good read, unless you're trying to help someone that works with you get on board, and you haven't found the way to get the light bulb turned on in their head.
For those without the life experience, and are intent on not being their business (you're it!) forever, yet creating a structure that operates well under all circumstances, I hope this will gives you some understanding, ideas, or just plain coping skills to be the one not "steering the ship," but being in charge of that process effectively.
I got involved in teaching in 1972, and have done it extensively in one-on-one environments, and also with up to 200 people in the room. Along the way, I found the understanding of training psychology (I'm no degreed expert, but I've been taught some and self-studied more, as well as practiced it) accelerates the process of a student reaching understanding, and in most all cases, finding a connecting, effective analogy turbo-charges the situation. Caveat: You need to have a comprehension of both ends of that analogy you put into play, where they come from and the one you are using to connect the dots.
Having also sat on the other side of the instruction/training equation, and finding how it helps me quickly grasp the topic makes it one of my "go to" techniques in most cases.
I can document 9 years of professional experience as assigned to sea duty on vessels where there is a person steering the ship. Across 20 years, I worked for, or evaluated Captains, or trained Captains and their crews. This is my hands on, in the trenches view of "steering the ship." Hint: It's not the Captain.
This will be presented in a series of posts, connecting the dots on the players involved, so you can see how it applies.
On to the main message:
If you delve into looking to comprehend the story of a ship as a valid the analogy of building a business where more than one person is involved in the running of it, there are plenty of lessons there in how that process runs. Make sure you get the best understanding by understanding things you can know about life aboard ship, so you may properly apply them to your personal plans and methods.
At a top level, a vessel at sea has some great applications to a business. It gets there, but it is way slower than a jet and has circumstances that change along the way, over days, if not months. It relies on internal and external equipment, communications and collaboration. That involves relationships with people, more importantly the "command climate" that is the over-arching philosophy which determines the decision making and attitudes of those involved.
Of course, it all begins with the Captain directing that a voyage occurs, but I'll begin with by discussing a vital position that makes this all occur.
On the way to the destination, you need to plan the route. That route will almost never be a straight line, and it has to be carefully constructed, with deliberate effort to ensure you avoid the shoal water and other hazards that lay between you and your destination and which "aids to navigation" that will be used to tell you where you are, so you can get where you plan to go.
Who is assigned to do this? Your Navigator (I did that for a three and a half years, directly, as well as it being a professional skill necessary across the time in the career). Think of this as human in the analogy your set of plans: Your business and marketing ones specifically.
The Navigator is responsible to the Captain to gather the most current charts, port data (departing and arriving ports), tide and current data for the days when you will be leaving and arriving. In addition, the Navigator is the one who gets the weather forecasts together for the anticipated days of the journey.
While the port data is, for all practical purposes, a fixed value, and the charts, if they are in fact, updated with the most current information, are solid facts to make plans on, the tides and currents inject some uncertainty, but are generally accurate, having been analyzed by harbor pilots over the ages. The largest uncertainty, will be the weather.
The type of weather, and importantly, the size and type of your "vessel," will determine the parameters of "acceptable" when discussing the weather you will face. Consider this determination much like the size of your business within your market place, what you must do to get to your destination, and the ability to forecast the actions and operations of the competitors, as well as supporting businesses (they are there now, but will they be tomorrow or next week?). What's that "climate" on any given day, let alone what can you count on for tomorrow to be like? So, in this commentary, it is much like the weather, which you can make some reasonable determinations on to help improve the chances for success.
The Navigator then plots out the course on the chart, creates a voyage plan, which has some specific times to make turns, change speed and courses to get you where you want to go.
If you consider the proper construction of your business plan (and marketing as a separate one, if it's not an embedded part of the business plan) there you have the concept: Plan it out in advance. This is your virtual Navigator.
I know you know this, but, have you ever just rushed out, thinking your mentally constructed, not written down plan was all you needed? Yes, some mariners have done that, too, and you can google up many, many stories on maritime disasters and investigations that tell the grim story of the unfortunate outcome, complete with the quotes of regret "I know I should have spent more time studying and planning this!' being very common. It's not to say it can't happen and everything will be from "fine" to "AWESOME!" but you can't count on it. A plan for your voyage give you a better idea by beginning with a destination (worthy of going to!), the milestones along the path that get you there safely, and a far more likely outcome of repeated success.
As in business, a voyage plan never ends like it was laid out to be. How much differently it will look like at your destination is somewhat under your control but some of it is not. If you are armed with this understanding, then you can have "pre-planned responses" for two things:
- How to keep a measurement system in place so you see you're leaving the planned voyage route right away;
- A structured method to update the plan and implement the corrective measures.
What can change your plan? The open ocean currents and weather shift and are not affecting you as you planned. Might be a head wind, and strong current when crossing the Gulf Stream you maybe didn't make a detailed enough plan for in the computations (or you did and it's not what the forecasts predicted). You may get an S.O.S. message, or see another vessel you pass which needs assistance, and all of this either slows you down, or pushes you off track, to a small of large extent. How do you react?
If you realize you are off track early (because you have a cracker jack bridge watch team (to be discussed later in the series), using the required "best practices" to help you know this quickly, then you have a small correction to make. It may be as simple as speeding up (maybe even slowing down…) a bit to compensate for the next time frame (in your real life, that may be you stay up and write the catch up words for your KPI Million Word Challenge commitment). It may be a full blown re-evaluation of the plan you began with.
Like in all endeavors, the subtleties and nuances of what really happens is in the details. Navigating across large expanses of an environment require thoughtful effort to reduce the chances for mistakes, or failure to the minimal amount. Your plan causes you to lay out what you want to do and know where your strengths and weaknesses are, so you can plan accordingly, be in in resourcing, or measuring, or employing more help, internally or externally, for the support necessary to get to the destination.
And, to wrap it all up: The Navigator, as told by the Captain, has to know where the end point is that needs to be reached, and, if there are port visits along the voyage, or special considerations (VIP guests will embark for the trip, you won't get paid unless a certain cargo is delivered be a certain date, etc), This is my entreaty to make you think of the end destination, before you plan to sail beyond the mouth of the harbor, and actually, not even leaving the pier without a plan and what's necessary arranged is in place, and understood by those who will accompany you, or be supporting the journey.
And neither the Captain nor the Navigator "steer the ship." Stay tuned!

LEAKS: US starting to resemble Stasi culture
I read with increasing horror the article on President Obama's plans for plugging security leaks (TNT, 7-10). All federal employees are to spy on each other for possible suspicious behaviors and to practice profiling techniques as part of a new Insider Threat Program. Those who do not report their co-workers for suspicious behavior may themselves face criminal charges.
I am very familiar with the Stasi culture that flourished in communist East Germany. I've visited the museums and documentation centers several times. I've watched the award-winning film, "The Lives of Others," many times. I know about Lutheran congregations in which …

Problems to be aware of
Some of the more common problems which may occur when designing roofs containing trussed rafters are listed below.
1.Trussed rafter or frame?
Trussed rafters are fully triangulated frameworks and there is often confusion when raised tie or Attic frames are required. Such frames are not fully triangulated trusses rafters, although they are of similar appearance, and their design calls for a completely difference approach than that for true trussed rafters.
4.Changes in adjoining roof pitch
If two adjoining areas of roof are required to be at different pitches, care should be taken to ensure that the outside top edges of the rafter overhangs are of common height to provide continuity of fixing for fascia boards.
5.Variations in support conditions
It is increasingly common for the support conditions for trusses to be varied from the standard type of heel support, to create cantilevered and bobtailed (stub) trusses, where the cantilever or bobtail distance is short (in the order of 100 to 400mm). Such support conditions must be specially designed for, (See section 2.8).
6.Depth limits for trussed rafters
The general limit for the manufacture of roof trusses is in the order of 600mm overall depth minimum. Further, it is recommended that the span-to-depth
ratio (span of truss divided by its overall depth) is not greater than 10. (See section 1.4).
2.Trusses to match existing construction
Where trusses are required to align with existing roof constructions, great care must be taken to obtain the critical dimensions to which the new trusses should be made. The most common problems in this area are the misalignment of the outside rafter line and the mis-match of overall roof height.
7.Check that everything fits
Ensure that all water tanks, air-handling plant, services etc will fit within the outside profile and will clear the internal webs. Afurther point here, is to check that any deep hangers used to carry special loads will fit within the depth available to them, as such items tend to be relatively deep.
3.Changes in wall thickness
Trussed rafters are commonly supported on the inner leaf of a cavity wall construction. Where both inner and outer leaves of the masonry are required to support trusses (common when a garage abuts directly onto a bungalow for example), great care should be taken to ensure continuity of the outside rafter line.
8.Fixings to support trusses
Timber to timber connections are best made at 90 degrees wherever possible, as angled connections increase costs. (See section 2.9).
9.Fixing of hangers
Where hangers are used on the bottom chords of girder trusses to support trusses and/or infill members, it is often more practical to provide a deeper bottom chord, usually 125mm or greater, in the girder truss to avoid the need for blocking-out on site. Where hangers are used in masonry walls to carry
trusses, a sufficient depth of masonry above the hanger should be provided to ensure a secure fixing. (See section 3.9).
10.Alignment of webs
In some cases, it is important to align webs on adjacent trusses within the roof to enable bracing members to continue in a straight line or for connections to be made from purlins. (See section 2.7).

Philadelphia sports writer Donald Hunt has a goal to cut Hall of Famer Wilt Chamberlain down to size.
Small enough to be put on millions of envelopes across the country.
Two years ago Hunt wrote a column advocating that the postal service put the big man on a commemorative postage stamp.
That has expanded to a Wilt Chamberlain Stamp Committee at the Philadelphia Tribune, Hunt's newspaper.
" We meet once a month to talk about the effort to get him a postage stamp," Hunt e-mailed. "We've asked a lot of fans and callers to write to the Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee. This committee makes the selections for the commemorative stamps. So far, we've sent nearly 30,000 names on petitions to the committee."
Here is the petition if fans are interested in adding their names. Hunt says those sending letters of support include Jerry West, Pat Riley, David Stern, a governor, two senators and a mayor. Hunt is hoping to bring President Obama on board.
Fans can send the letters to: Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee, Stamp Development, U.S. Postal Service, 1735 North Lynn Street, Suite 5013, Arlington, VA 22209-6432.
Chamberlain is currently under consideration for a postage stamp in 2011 according to the committee," Hunt said. "He had to wait at least three years before he could be considered for a stamp. We propose that the Chamberlain stamp be issued during Black History Month or March 2nd, the anniversary of his 100-point game. We also asked the committee to use that famous photo of him holding the 100-point sign for the stamp."

Description: Bethel House, located in a small fishing village in northern Japan, was founded in 1984 as an intentional community for people with schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders. Using a unique, community approach to psychosocial recovery, Bethel House focuses as much on social integration as on therapeutic work. As a centerpiece of this approach, Bethel House started its own businesses in order to create employment and socialization opportunities for its residents and to change public attitudes toward the mentally ill, but also quite unintentionally provided a significant boost to the distressed local economy. Through its work programs, communal living, and close relationship between hospital and town, Bethel has been remarkably successful in carefully reintegrating its members into Japanese society. It has become known as a model alternative to long-term institutionalization.In A Disability of the Soul, Karen Nakamura explores how the members of this unique community struggle with their lives, their illnesses, and the meaning of community. Told through engaging historical narrative, insightful ethnographic vignettes, and compelling life stories, her account of Bethel House depicts its achievements and setbacks, its promises and limitations. The book is accompanied by a DVD containing two fascinating documentaries about Bethel made by the author-Bethel: Community and Schizophrenia in Northern Japan and A Japanese Funeral (winner of the Society for Visual Anthropology Short Film Award and the Society for East Asian Anthropology David Plath Media Award). A Disability of the Soul is a sensitive and multidimensional portrait of what it means to live with mental illness in contemporary Japan.

Leaders from Telangana has been hell bent on their stand that union territory status for Hyderabad is unacceptable.
According to sources, GoM has authorised the Home Ministry to present the draft bill before the next Cabinet meet.
GOM held a four-hour meeting on Wednesday to decide on Telangana issue. Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde, who heads the GoM, said they have discussed various issues concerning the bifurcation and distribution of assets between the residuary state of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
"Some discussions are still left. I cannot say when the GoM will submit the report to Cabinet," he told reporters.
Gom has already held meetings with eight main parties in the region.
The GoM has held a series of meetings with leaders of eight political parties, Union ministers from Andhra Pradesh and Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy and officials in the past one month. Distribution of assets between the two states and several other issues have already been discussed, said sources.
GoM has speeded up the procedure according to instructions of Congress high command, said sources.
Once the Cabinet clears the bills, it will go to the President who in turn will refer it to Andhra Pradesh Assembly for approval. However, the Assembly resolution is not binding under the Constitution.
The Union Cabinet then can consider the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Bill and with Union Cabinet's approval, it will send it to the President before being tabled in Parliament.

Review on Eipic
Ireland's premier Chef Michael Dean, who held a Michelin star for thirteen years has transformed his eponymous restaurant on the corner of Howard Street in Belfast into three restaurants, Eipic, Love Fish and Meat Locker. Eipic is the fine dining restaurant of the three and is an overtly swish and sleek place, decked out in a sophisticated palette of grey and cream with black accents. Smart, comfortable upholstered chairs are set against candlelit tables laid with crisp white napery and silverware.
Dean has appointed Danni Barry to lead the kitchen, a talented Irish chef with impeccable credentials having previously worked for Simon Rogan at his acclaimed restaurant L'Enclume in Cumbria, before joining Rogan & Co in Cartmel where she was Head Chef. Danni offers a concise tasting menu which draws inspiration from top-quality raw materials sourced from hand picked suppliers. The menu encompasses artistically displayed dishes in the shape of duck yolk, swede and mushroom ketchup; cured salmon beetroot and dill; halibut, broccoli, roasted bone; pigeon, carrot and treacle, venison, baked celeriac and pear. To close the show there's chocolate, Clementine and praline or cheese.
The wine list is a broad slate of vintage French classics tempered with youthful stuff from the rest of Europe and the New World. The restaurant was awarded a Michelin star in the 2016 edition of the Guide and is also the recipient of three rosettes in the AA Restaurant Guide.

"English cricket has a long, ignoble tradition of ignoring suffering in southern Africa. But if England so much as set foot in Mugabe's Zimbabwe, they will have plumbed new depths of slug-like appeasement that neither I, nor many other cricket-lovers will ever be able to forgive."
The following day, David Graveney, England's chairman of selectors, assured me that, while England were scheduled to play a match in Zimbabwe, they had no plans to train there. Suitably chastened, I printed a retraction in my following column.
Now I'd like to retract my retraction. I have no beef against Graveney. He has said that if he was still playing he would not want to go to Zimbabwe. Of course he made a huge mistake in leading one of England's apartheid-era "rebel" tours to South Africa, and he doesn't want to make the same mistake twice.
Which puts him in a minority of one. Nasser Hussain, England's skipper, has claimed that he and his team are far too busy losing to Australia to worry their pretty little heads with thinking about Zimbabwe.
Do me a favour, Nas. Only one Test has even entered the fifth day. You've had plenty of spare time. How long does it take a grown man with a university degree to figure that Zimbabwe is a hell-hole and Robert Mugabe is a murderous tyrant?
Still, Hussain has got one thing absolutely spot on. Yesterday he insisted that Zimbabwe was a moral issue, which should take precedence over sporting or financial considerations. So he's way, way ahead of the International Cricket Council and the Blair Government.
The ICC have come out of this looking lower than snakes in a coal mine. They claim their sole consideration is player safety. Politics, apparently, are not their concern.
It was men like that who sent athletes to the 1936 Berlin Olympics and instructed the 1938 England football team to give the Nazi salute, while Jews were having their synagogues destroyed, their businesses looted and their human rights trampled into the dirt. Have we learned nothing since then?
As for the Government - with the honourable exception of Clare Short - their sudden leap on to the anti-Zimbabwean bandwagon is, even by their dismal standards, an act of despicable cynicism.
Tony Blair's mob have spent the entire year trying to wash their hands of Zimbabwe. They let Mugabe send a team to the Commonwealth Games. They've done nothing to help dispossessed white farmers, or their black workers. And they've made no serious bid to impose economic or cultural sanctions against Zimbabwe.
Meanwhile, as the buck gets passed from hand to hand, the situation in Zimbabwe remains the same. The economy is collapsing. Mugabe's opponents are oppressed. Millions face starvation. It's hideously wrong to take part in any sporting tournament in the midst of that nightmare.
You don't have to be a politician to understand that. You don't have to be an administrator. You don't have to be a cricketer.
You just have to be a human being.
Houllier has the Wilkinson touch
So Gerard Houllier reckons Francis Jeffers dived to win that Arsenal penalty. Talk about pots and kettles.
Has Houllier never watched what happens when a defender breathes on Michael Owen in the box? Our Michael goes down faster than a shot pheasant.
Still, I'd better be careful discussing Houllier. Over the weekend, the entire football-writing establishment fell in behind the Frenchman. Despite a two-month run in which Liverpool managed the staggering feat of doing even worse than West Ham, everyone agreed that it was ridiculous to suggest that Houllier should go. In fact, it was irresponsible and immature even to criticise him.
Yeah, right. Because Houllier has done a brilliant job. And he's only spent around, oh, £100m. I'd say Houllier has made just four good-value purchases: Sami Hyypia, Stephane Henchoz, John Arne Riise and Didi Hamann.
Note that all four are defensive players. Because if Houllier has the slightest grasp of flair, imagination or width, he's keeping it well hidden.
Liverpool's most creative player, Jari Litmanen, was consistently ignored before being sold to Ajax. Their most dazzling young talent, Richie Partridge, is currently scoring fantastic goals, from the wing, on-loan for Coventry City.
The only way Partridge will get back to Anfield is if he starts speaking French and calls himself El-Rich Diouf. Then Houllier might just be interested.
If you ask me, Houllier is a dour, defensive coach, who did his best work within France's national coaching system.
Or, to put it another way, 'Gerard Houllier' is French for 'Howard Wilkinson'.
The Power packs new attraction for Kylie
The darts world has been rocked by the astonishing transformation in Phil Taylor. As he sets out in search of his 11th world title, 'The Power' is sporting a new, Beckham-esque blond hairstyle.
The barnet is only the beginning. Looking into my crystal ball for 2003, I see the following in prospect:
January: "Because I'm worth it!" pouts top male model Taylor in his £5 million L'Oreal campaign.
February: Taylor signs a £20m deal with adidas to promote a new range of 'adi-darts'. "We see pub sports as a major growth area in the fat, drunk, male demographic," says an adidas spokesman.
March: Taylor models a new mohican cut as he squires Kylie Minogue to a Hollywood movie premiere. "We're just good friends," insists married-man Taylor. But Kylie giggles: "Now I know why they call him 'The Power'!"
April: Tabloids go crazy as Geri Halliwell claims: "Phil's hit a double-top in my heart!" Taylor, meanwhile, is seen out with wife Yvonne, sporting a shaven head, pink nail-varnish and a silky sarong. "I'm a gay icon!" he claims, in an interview with style magazine The Face.
May: As Trinny and Susannah put all their make-over victims into short-sleeved nylon darts-shirts, Ralph Lauren signs up Taylor as the face of his new after-shave 'Oche'.
June: Jennifer Lopez claims to be carrying Phil's baby. "If it's a boy, we're going to call him Boddington," she gushes. "And Watney, if it's a girl."

A preliminary design for Guercino's print, Saint Anthony of Padua (Turner, op. cit., fig. 79). The present drawing reflects an earlier stage of composition than another preparatory drawing now in a private collection in the United States (Turner, op. cit., fig. 81). It differs from both the later drawing and the etching in showing Saint Anthony accompanied by the Christ Child, and in its inclusion of the short text on the pedestal, recording Saint Anthony's miraculous cure of a woman possessed by a demon. This pedestal, without the text, is retained in the drawing in America, but removed in the etching. Turner suggests that, in considering a very different compositional arrangement alongside the simpler format which he eventually chose for the print, Guercino was undertaking the same kind of preparatory work for his etching as he did for his paintings. The print is datable to the mid-1630s, and the present drawing can be dated to approximately the same period.

Strive for a better clinical outcome with the precision of the da Vinci® surgical system.
It is natural for all parents-to-be to worry about the health of their unborn baby. Prenatal diagnostics are a form of health screening that allows our specialists to perform detailed tests on the foetus to determine whether there are any existing congenital defects and problems. As with all diseases and medical conditions, early diagnosis can help doctors determine the best course of action and also allow parents to be prepared for their unborn children's medical condition.
Mount Elizabeth Novena Prenatal Diagnostic Centre
Prenatal diagnostics at Mount Elizabeth is supported by the Prenatal Diagnostic Centre at Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital. Staffed with a large team of senior foetal medicine specialists and paediatric cardiologists, the centre provides premium prenatal diagnostic evaluation and treatment.
Make an EnquiryBook an Appointment
The prenatal diagnostics available at Mount Elizabeth Hospital range from early trimester screening to mid-trimester serum screening for Down syndrome. When the foetus is suspected of having a birth defect, growth restriction, or when the pregnancy is high risk due to the mother's physical condition and age, we are fully equipped to diagnose and monitor the situation. We use high quality 2D foetal imaging, growth surveillance and biophysical foetal assessment, as well as foetal blood sampling or amniotic fluid aspiration to detect any infection or inherited disorders.
Our prenatal diagnostics services include:
Foetal anomaly scan
An ultrasound scan at around 18 - 20 weeks to check for foetal congenital anomalies, this is sometimes called the mid-pregnancy scan. At this stage, the foetus is large enough and the major organ systems are also adequately formed to be inspected. During the scan, the baby will be checked on the following:
In addition, the position of the placenta and the sufficiency of amniotic fluid are also checked. This thorough examination of the foetal structures pick up major abnormal feature so that early action can be taken.
Also known as Amniotic Fluid Test (AFT), this is mainly performed to diagnose chromosomal abnormality. Common abnormalities include Down syndrome, Edwards syndrome and Turner syndrome. AFT is also performed to detect sex of the foetus, foetal lung maturity and foetal infection.
When doing AFT a small amount of local anaesthetic is first administered to relieve the pain felt during the insertion of the needle. Using the guidance of ultrasound, the needle is inserted through the mother's abdomen, through the uterus wall and into the amniotic sac away. The needle will be placed safely away from the foetus and about 20ml of amniotic fluid is extracted.
For prenatal genetic diagnosis, the foetal cells in amniotic fluid sample will be cultured, fixed and stained, and the chromosomal make-up will be examined under the microscope. For diagnosing in-utero foetal infection, the amniotic fluid will be cultured for any growth of micro-organism.
Chorionic villus sampling
Chorionic villus sampling is a prenatal test usually done between 10 - 12 weeks of pregnancy, when a small sample of placental tissue (chorionic villus) is removed for analysis. The test can be performed in two ways, either through the cervix or through the abdomen. The advantage of chorionic villus sampling is that the result may be obtained earlier and further action, if necessary, can be taken quickly.
Foetal blood sampling
Foetal blood samply (FBS) is usually done between 20 - 23 weeks of pregnancy. During the procedure blood is drawn from the umbilical cord of the foetus. Similar to the AFT and CVS, a small hollow needle is inserted through the abdomen and uterus into the umbilical cord. FBS is generally conducted to detect for chromosomal disorders, genetic diseases and viral infections.
Foetal congenital heart defects, which affect 1% of pregnancy, can be a single defect of the heart partition or valve, or complex multiple defects that involve the heart and the major heart vessels. Our specialists perform foetal echocardiography with 3D reconstruction and real-time 4D imaging to interrogate the foetal heart structures and functions. Their personalized counselling on subsequent care is founded on many years of clinical experience in managing children with cardiac malformations through to adulthood.
Foetal Echocardiogram
A foetal echocardiogram is similar to an ultrasound, it uses sound waves to map out the structures of the heart. This test is usually done around 18 - 24 weeks into the pregnancy. It provides the doctor information on the heart's interior and whether the heart has formed properly. The echocardiogram can also detect if there is any abnormal blood flow through the heart or abnormal heartbeat pattern.
Your goal of getting swift, accurate and effective treatment is our strength. Our skilled team of specialists and staff operate at Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital – an award-winning hospital with advanced technology and modern facilities. Take your first step towards better pregnancy care today, and experience the high-quality, customised healthcare that has made us one of the leading medical institutions in Asia-Pacific.

Petitions seek to restore North Dakota's Sioux nickname
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Is it the return of the Fighting Sioux? Supporters of the University of North Dakota's nickname turned in more than 17,000 signatures Tuesday night to cap a petition drive to force a statewide vote on a moniker the NCAA says is insulting to American Indians.
Campaign organizers said they had gathered far more than the 13,452 signatures needed to put a question before voters in June.
Reed Soderstrom, chairman of the referendum campaign, said organizers counted 17,213 names. The petitions were delivered to Secretary of State Al Jaeger's office about 10:15 p.m. CT Tuesday.
Jaeger planned to check the count Wednesday. He has 35 days to review the petition and decide whether it is sufficient to qualify for the ballot.
Archie Fool Bear, a member of the Standing Rock Sioux tribe, and Eunice Davidson, a member of the Spirit Lake Sioux, said the work of gathering names was exhausting.
"We worked in the cold weather. We froze. But even though we went through all that, it was really an experience, learning how to do this," Davidson said.
Residents of the Spirit Lake Sioux reservation in northeastern North Dakota endorsed the nickname's continued use in a reservation referendum. The Standing Rock tribe had no referendum, and its tribal council has long opposed the name.
"Members on our reservation are going to have a chance to vote on this," Fool Bear said.
Jaeger said the petitions alone are enough to temporarily revive a law that requires the uvniersity's teams to be known as the Fighting Sioux.
The name and an American Indian head logo have already been scrubbed from university websites and removed from some school team uniforms to head off NCAA sanctions, which include a ban on hosting postseason games or fielding teams in postseason play with the logo or nickname on uniforms.
Faced with the probable signature-gathering success by Fighting Sioux supporters, university officials and members of the state Board of Higher Education said Tuesday that they had no plans to immediately restore the nickname.
The measure does not include any penalty if the school or board ignores its directive, and Rep. Al Carlson, R-Fargo, the Republican majority leader in the North Dakota House and chief sponsor of the legislation, said he did not support one.
"I love the Fighting Sioux but I don't see that as an issue worth fighting over," Carlson said. "I don't see that we should be running penalties up."
Duaine Espegard, the board's vice president, said Tuesday that board members needed to consult first with Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem about the implications of the petition filing.
"There really isn't a plan right now, and we'll have to wait a day or so," Espegard said.
Stenehjem declined comment Tuesday. The board's president, Grant Shaft, did not respond immediately to telephone and email requests for comment.
The law Carlson sponsored says UND's athletics teams must be known as the Fighting Sioux and bars the university and Board of Higher Education from discontinuing the use of the nickname or logo.
The law won final legislative approval in March and took effect Aug. 1. After the NCAA declined to back away from sanctions it planned for continued use of the nickname, the Legislature repealed the law during a special session last November.
Once Jaeger has given his OK, the petition filing would temporarily reverse the repeal and make Carlson's original measure the law again until the June vote is held.
Peter Johnson, a UND spokesman, said the university has already taken a number of steps to retire the logo and nickname. The logo and Fighting Sioux references have been removed from university websites, and Internet addresses have been changed to delete mention of them.
The Fighting Sioux Sports Network, Fighting Sioux Club and Sioux Crew have had their names changed to the UND Sports Network, North Dakota Champions Club and Nodak Nation.
In place of the American Indian warrior profile, a new logo, with an interlocking ND, is featured. The ND logo is on the front of new jerseys for the women's hockey team, Johnson said.
The women's basketball uniforms had a small American Indian head logo, which "has been removed as part of the transition," Johnson said. Men's basketball uniforms have had neither the logo nor the nickname.
The men's hockey team will continue to wear jerseys with the logo and the word "SIOUX" emblazoned across the chest, Johnson said. New jerseys aren't scheduled for delivery until the end of the month, he said.
Backers of the nickname referendum are also circulating a separate petition that would amend the North Dakota Constitution to require UND to keep the Fighting Sioux nickname. That petition does not need to be turned in until August to qualify for the November general election.

My hair is depressing
I just signed up for this site because I have spent most of my day off annoyed and sad about my disgusting hair. My curly hair feels like just another curse adding to my array of unattractive qualities. To be honest, I'm too lazy/busy to straighten it. I do it rarely but when I do I am adorned with compliments about how beautiful I look etc... I am completely aware that I look thinner(not sure why) and much more attractive with straight hair. I basically wear it in a ponytail or bun 99% of the time. Even when my curls are flawless (rare) I think they are ugly. I am frustrated by how unpredictable it is. Sometimes it look fine, sometimes its disgusting, frizzy, big and unattractive. I hate curly hair!!!! In my opinion (I know you guys don't agree) most people look better with straight hair. Only fake curls made by curling irons look good. I am just pissed off that nobody has figured out how to straighten hair permanently. I have chemically straightened it, done the keratin straightening thing etc... I haven't tried anything like it in the last few years though because it doesn't work and costs a fortune.
I just blew money on sulfate free shampoo and conditioner as suggested on this site. We will see if it works. But my main problem is, no matter how great my curls look I still HATE the way they look on me. I blew $65 on a hair cut from a "curly hair specialist" a couple of months ago. So I guess it should be cut properly.
By the way I am between 3A/3B. It's long nipple length curly and almost belly button length straight.
I need some advice on how to like curly hair.
What's your regimen like now? Knowing what products you're using will be helpful to us. Also, figuring out your hair properties (porosity, texture, etc) will be useful in choosing the right products: Live Curly Live Free - Curly Hair Basics These properties are a better predictor of what your hair will respond to than curl type.
You say you don't like investing much time in your hair. If spending less time on your hair would make you happy, then try to establish the simplest routine you can. Also, since your hair is long, you may want to consider plopping or diffusing to shorten drying time, or getting it cut shorter. (Plus if you spend less time worrying about your hair, then hopefully you'll spend less time beating yourself up about whether it's perfect or not!) Ask us questions – we're happy to help!
Side note: When I was growing up, I would've given anything to have straight hair. Now that I'm 22 and know how to take good care of it, it's a defining part of my look (in a good way!) and I can't imagine myself any other way. I love my curls. ;-)
Ssa79, I love your glossy 3a curls! Very soft and feminine. :) I've been thinking of trying "long and extra-wide" curlformers to get a similar look without heat, just to mix things up every once in awhile. I think your hair looks great. (Also, lovely lipcolor in the curly pic! :love2: I also love a strong brow, so I like how you've shaped them in the curly pic more. Brows are so expressive!)
Sounds like your mind is already made up about curly hair why do u want us to change it? This issue lies beyond your hair as u state even when its nice u still hate it on you. Your rite it sucks that there are no procedures that can permanently straighten your hair bc it seems like u are miserable with it. Its something u just have to live with, wether you have to pony up and dedicate the efforts in straightening your hair daily to feel better about your 'curse'. It wont be fixed without work on your end.
Good luck
This sounds like a self esteem issue not a curly hair issue. I think most people on this website used to dislike their hair and wish it was straight. But now we all love our hair because we know how to take care of it. I hope I'm not sounding too preachy but I hope you do find a way to feel better about yourself because it sucks to have low self esteem. I've been there. I think the best way to get out of it is to do things you enjoy and try to better yourself as a person inside and out. What helped me with my hair was, The Curly Girl Handbook and the curly girl method in general. My hair loves it. And I think going on youtube and actually seeing other people's curly hair looking fabulous helped "retrain" my brain to see that straight wasn't better.
But anyway, I hope you can see that you are just as beautiful as anyone else and nothing, especially HAIR makes you any less.
curly hair is for sexy, intelligent and creative people. Be thankful, be proud, be happy! You have our support!
saa79, in all honesty I think you look much nicer with curly hair!
It is very true the thing you spoke about the racial "arrogance"... Our ideas of beauty are programmed into us since out childhood. Beauty is equal to "white, western" qualities = straight (blond) hair, light skin, certain type of figure and facial features etc. These qualities are seen to go hand in hand with some inner qualities as well (goodness, innocence, honesty...). I've seen too many, extremely beautiful people struggle with their self esteem when they don't fulfill these ideas of beauty. That is pure madness and needs to stop!!!

read this, it may change your mind?
i sometimes, actually quite often long for looser longer curls, but i know i cant change them. think about it. think about how straightening is damaging, so much effort and all the other negative things about it. sure it may look nice but have you ever actually tried to embrace your curls, or tried the curly girl method.
i am a teenager, and i find it hard to embrace my hair, and most girls straighten their hair, so i understand you may think straight is better...i've gone through many stages with my hair, from scraping it back when i was younger, which looked AWFUL, from it being big and poofy, being straightened, and now i'm e,bracing it. sure i get tired of it, and it's not perfect, and i get frustrated with it frequently, but it's mine, and it's not going to change anytime soon, so accept the fact- you have curly hair.
i think before you start making judgements such as people look better with straight hair, and saying your hair is ugly or whatever you said, try making it look the possibly best it could be, and if the result is still bad, sure, go back to straightening it. this would be a looong process of going through the curly girl method, which can be hard to get into, as it involves finding suitable products through your hair and at first your curls may be dry and frizzy. however, if you stick to this curly girl routine, and make your hair extremely moisturised (sounds like it must be damaged considering all the treatments, and heat you've used) you may grow to like it, and you will notice your hair improve in health and also how it looks naturally. since doing the curly girl method it is now softer, it's growing faster, and it's shinier. on this website it has sooo much info on how to deep treat your hair, the products to use, how to sleep on it and still get good hair the day after, talks about issues you may have, tips, tricks and more.
remember, straightening may give you with a couple days of nice, silky hair, but the curly girl method could give you nice curls for life....
Okay, let's be honest. I'm not going to just tell you nice things and to keep your chin up for one, I find it a obnoxious that you come on a curly support site and tell everyone here that they would look better with curly hair. You're not just putting yourself down, you're putting everyone else down and you need to stop. Like yesterday. Two, I have no basis for that information, as I've never seen you, and I guess your problems run deeper than the superficial.
To some extent you are right. Not all curly hair is beautiful and not everyone looks best with curly hair, but you can say the same thing about straight hair. Curly hair is not inherently bad (nor are brown eyes compared to blue, pale/dark skin compared to tan, etc.). There is a lot of blah, thin, dry, limp, stringy hair out there that doesn't look good, whether it be the cause of hair care or genetics. No person has every ideal body part...not even people who are idiolized. The point is your curly hair is the way you were born and no one would every suggest to a woman with straight hair that she spend hours in the mirror every morning to achieve her curly wedding hair they loved so much. It would be ridiculous.
You have to like you. You don't have any choice. The more you like and accept yourself, the better you'll get at dressing yourself up and working with what you have. Nothing makes a self esteem problem worse than trying to be something you're not everyday and wishing for what you'll never be at night. Acceptance is the first step, everything else will follow. You just have to build a bridge and get over it...unless you really think not looking the way you want to is a good enough reason to be unhappy.

So, one week later and I finally decided to come back on and look at replies. I read what I imagined would be there. I switched products and stuff and it looks a little better. I need to learn to tolerate it if I can't like it. I have been doing that OK the last week or so. I find it really annoying that I keep reading how so many girl's boyfriends/hubbys like their hair straight. Every man I have ever been with and any friend or family member I have likes me better with straight hair. I think that's what gets me down too. (IN GENERAL): People just don't like it. Men don't like it. Read this: Curly vs. Straight: Which Do Men Prefer? - DivineCaroline
A lot of interesting stuff.
Here is a pic of my hair. Its not the worst curly hair in the world but it just doesn't fit my face. It makes it look fatter. That annoys me a lot.
The hubby straight hair threads are annoying but nowhere near as irritating as an "I hate how curly hair looks" thread on a forum to help people learn to care for their curly hair. If you think curls are unattractive then to that I have 3 words for you GET A RELAXER!!
I mean really??? What is the point of this thread? It is obviously to me she didn't come here for a pep talk.
You ladies and gents have the patience of Job because to me this is just blah blah blah.
I've learned to honestly not care about what other people like cause why do they get a say in how I look? Especially when none of these people look like supermodels either. My boyfriend likes ME and it has nothing to do with whether my hair is straight or curly. Your hair is gorgeous btw and I have no idea why you dont like it *shrug*
Ugh, girl, you've got to be trolling. I mean, seriously. Who are these "people" you're so concerned about??
And "I read what I imagined would be there"? Pfft—You know everything to the point of being clairvoyant!
Do yourself a favor and grow a personality. Stop caring about what other people think of your hair.
I'm out.

your blood reports are not as bad as you are thinking. increased RBC low MCH and MCV suggest iron and vitamin B12 or Folic acid deficiency. it is not a alarming situation, do a further test of IRON PROFILE, FOLIC ACID, VITAMIN B12 LEVELS YOUR LIVER FUNCTION IS FINE AS MILD BILIRUBIN RISE MAY ALSO BE SECONDARY TO VITAMIN DEFICIENCY. i cannot suggest a nearby specialist as i am not having any good friends or colleagues there whom i can trust enough to refer to you. it would be prudent to go to MAX or Fortis shalimar bhagh and get a consultaion with internal medicine specialist.
