| IHRO: cops used excessive force
We also strongly condemn the district police administration that registered a criminal case (FIR) against the agitators, including girl students." IHRO chairperson D. S. Gill told the media here today that this was the findings of its investigation team comprising M. S. Grewal (general secretary), Inderjit Kaur (secretary- women's affairs) and advocate Sukhdev Singh Ramgarh Sibian. The three-member team, he said, met the agitating students, especially the girl students who were victims of the ferocious attack by the police to appease Capt Amarinder Singh, who later realising that the police was wrong had ordered a magisterial inquiry into the incident. According to preliminary investigation by the IHRO, the main culprit seemed to be the SHO, Sarabha Nagar police station, Mr Sandeep Kumar Wadhera, said Mr Gill, adding that there were, however, no case of molestation as had been reported in a section of the media.
London Fashion Week: Armand Basi / Nicole Farhi / House of Holland
You have heard about the bicycle built for two. But how about the dress built for two, or even three? There was not a hint of size zero as the Armand Basi collection took to the catwalk in the Banqueting Rooms at Whitehall, during London Fashion Week yesterday. .
Canada urged to double troop strength
More to the point, this war is bringing big money to a few. There can certainly be support at an abstract level for that kind of goal. The people's support at this level is helpful.
Why not try to find some concrete reasons to support this neo-colonial war? Good luck.
What I find quite funny is that powerful people don't care much for thinking at the concrete level. Money is abstract. England was a world power for a few centuries. England went and messed up entire continents. What's worse: letting the 'natives' sort out their problems among themselves or going in and manipulating things to our benefit, then leaving at the appropriate time and of course leaving them to sort out their problems among themselves?

Self-healing rubber bounces back
Snap this stretchy piece of rubber in two, and it will heal itself back into a stretchy piece of rubber again. The material's eerie ability to 'heal' itself means that it can broken, stuck and stretched time and time again. To read this story in full you will need to login or make a payment (see right).

Hip-Hop Rumors: Lil' Wayne Engaged? Ashanti Talks Nelly/Irv! Ghostface ...
I hope somebody started this gaudy rumor just to get to me. After being seen at a basketball game, bossip is suggesting strongly that Wayne and Lauren London are engaged! No way do I believe this! There is also talk of a huge rock on her ring finger. That may be factual, since she is a star, but that doesn't mean Lil Wayne copped it. I'm gonna keep the faith like Biggie!
I ain't gonna lie…my heart is hurting a lil' bit here. I'm going to throw this stuff up and get back to the rumors in a few. Lauren, why? Why!
