Indians behind Force F1
Motor Racing: Force India F1 season gets even worse
The car of Giancarlo Fisichella of team Force India is taken away after a crash during the final practice session.
SINGAPORE - Force India has had a sobering introduction to Formula One in its inaugural season and once again nothing went right for Vijay Mallya's team Saturday.
Giancarlo Fisichella will start last on the grid for the Singapore Grand Prix on Sunday and Adrian Sutil will join him at the back.
"I think this is probably our worst qualifying performances so far this year," said Sutil.
"We really don't know where the problem is, but it just seemed the grip was not there and the balance wasn't right. We just have to try our best and find the problems."
The sport's newest outfit are still without a point in either the drivers' or constructors' championship with just four races of the 18-race campaign left.
The experienced Fisichella crashed into the barriers in practice Saturday and although the crew fixed the car's damaged right corner, he got a puncture in qualifying.
"I'm really disappointed -- not for myself, as I think it would have been a tough qualifying anyway -- but for the team as they worked so hard," he said.
Billionaire owner Mallya, who had high hopes at the beginning of the season, said he was confident their luck would change.
"Both drivers had their problems but the team did a tremendous job to get Giancarlo's car out in time for qualifying, something I think we can be proud of," he said.
"As a small team such knock-backs can be tough but everyone has dealt with it admirably. Hopefully, we've had all our bad luck this weekend and can look forward to picking up positions on Sunday." - AFP

Singapore have F1, India also want
Formula One supremo Bernie Ecclestone said Friday he plans to hold a Grand Prix in India in 2011, a year later than first thought.
Indian Olympic Association (IOA) president Suresh Kalmadi announced last year that he had sealed a deal to host a Grand Prix in New Delhi from 2010.
But Ecclestone told AFP it would likely happen later than that, without giving a reason.
Asked if 2010 was still in the pipeline, he said: "It's all going on as usual, but these things take time.
"Probably 2011 is what I want."
India's ambitious F1 plans were first unveiled in June last year when the IOA said it had received a letter from Ecclestone allowing the country to host a race subject to meeting certain conditions, like building a track.
Millions of Indians watch F1 on television, often with the same passion they reserve for the country's most popular sport -- cricket.
Pls stick to what you guys are good at!

India, sisters of Mother Teresa assaulted by Hindu radicals and arrested by police
The fundamentalists attacked the religious, accusing them of the "kidnapping and forced conversion" of four children between one and two years old. Although their identification documents were in order, the children were taken away from the sisters and put in a government hospital. Tough condemnation by the Indian Church.
New Delhi (AsiaNews) - The Missionaries of Charity are again in the crosshairs of the fundamentalists: yesterday, September 5 - the anniversary of the death of Mother Teresa of Calcutta - four sisters of Mother Teresa were attacked by about 20 Bajrang Dal activists at the Durgh train station in Chhattisgarh, a state in central India. The Hindu radicals forced them off the train, and then handed them over to police officers while chanting anti-Christian slogans.
The Hindu fundamentalists accused the sisters - Sr Mamta, the mother superior, Sr Ignacio, Sr Josephina, and Sr Laborius - of the "kidnapping and forced conversion" of four children between one and two years old, whom the religious were taking from their home in Raipur to the Shishu Bhava charity center in Bhopal. The activists followed the women to the police station, "insulting them and chanting slogans against the Christians".
The sisters presented all of the identification documents for the children and their travel permit, in addition to other documentation brought later by the religious from the house in Bilaspur. In spite of this documentation, the children were taken to be housed temporarily at the government hospital in Durg, while the documents and identity papers presented by the sisters are verified by the judicial authorities.
"The mob threatened to beat us up, but I was not afraid", Sr Mamta tells AsiaNews. Her only concern is for the children, who require care and assistance, "but most of all our love. We love these darlings like our own, that is our pain".
The sister says that she "prayed to Mother Teresa" (yesterday was the anniversary of her death, and her liturgical feast day), entrusting the "well-being of the children" to her. She emphasizes that this new episode of "persecution" is an integral part of the missionary task of "witnessing to Christ" entrusted to them by the founder of the order. Although she got no sleep during the night spent at the police station, the following morning - today, September 6 - she took part in Mass, "thanking God and our beloved Mother Teresa".
The Indian Catholic Church has taken a tough stance, through the head of the bishops' conference, who denounces the climate of hostility and terror toward Christians. "I am absolutely shocked", says Cardinal Osvaldo Gracias, "at the baseless and fabricated allegations of conversion levied against the Missionary of Charity". The prelate stresses that he knew "Mother Teresa personally, and I was also involved with her mission, and I can vouch for the fact that never has any baby or anyone been converted by the Missionaries of Charity, either in the remotest rural area or in any part of the world".
In condemning this new attack against the Christians, Cardinal Gracias accuses those who "are instrumental in poisoning minds" and foster interconfessional confrontation: "This is a climate of intolerance [against Christians] that is growing in the country, and it will have serious drastic long-term effects on Indian society".
This new episode of violence against the sisters confirms the growing climate of hostility toward Christians, in the crosshairs of the Hindu fundamentalists who are seeking by every means to eliminate their mission and their charitable works in the country.
The tribals, the Dalits - untouchables - and the many orphaned children find in Christianity and in the activity of the religious a way to improve their condition and bring dignity to their lives. By attacking the Christians, the Hindu fundamentalists are above all harming India and its people, anchoring it in a feudal and backward past, based on the hierarchy determined by caste and by slavery.

Mudland's Dirty Dozen
A Ranking of the 12 Most Evil Persons in Malaysia
Who are the most evil and corrupt men and women in Malaysia ?
Here is a listing of the Dirty Dozen. Besides the top dog, the list includes his dark knights, from the Attorney-General to the Chief Justice, judges, the ACA, the Election Commission and the police force.
1. Mahathir Mohamed
The Father of Corruption
He has practically destroyed all the institutions of democracy in Malaysia . Corruption and cronyism flourish under his rule to an extent never before seen. Like a leader who corrupts all those under him, most of the people holding high office in the country are corrupt and beholden to him. Slowly but surely Mahathir's rule of corruption, cronyism and public-milking privatization is lowering the standard of living in Malaysia and making life harder for the ordinary citizens who must pay the ever increasing corruption tax.
2. Daim Zainuddin
A rapacious robber baron whose greed is boundless
His low profile belies the immense power he wields in his hands and he has used his power to amass fabulous wealth. A brazen attempt to force merge the country's banks to increase his share of banking assets to dangerous levels was aborted only because Umno needed Chinese votes to win the elections. However billions of ringgit in frozen Clob shares fell prey to his greed when badly treated foreign investors had to pay him a cut to get their shares released. His economic plunder helps to keep the Mahathir regime in power and fuel the money politics that the party machinery runs on.
3. Mohtar Abdullah
A legal thug best describes this totally repulsive man
For sheer gusto in carrying out Mahathir's nefarious designs, Mohtar Abdullah has no equal. He turned the office of the A-G into a dictator's tool of oppression to drag to court perceived political critics and enemies. With the Chief Justice to select the proper judge to hear the case, he just can't lose. Lim Guan Eng felt brunt of his legal thuggery for merely criticizing his non-action over the statutory rape of a schoolgirl by powerful politician Rahim Thamby Chik. This evil man is not above fabricating evidence to secure convictions when real evidence is hard to come by in cases where innocent people are dragged to court.
4. Eusoff Chin
He sat on the bench to ensure its subservience to Mahathir
When the country's Chief Justice is corrupt what can you expect of the judicial system? Eusoff Chin has been photographed holidaying in New Zealand with highly successful lawyer V.K. Lingam who has never lost a case in Eusoff Chin's court. Eusoff' is used by Mahathir to select suitable judges to hear important cases and to lean on judges to deliver the "correct" judgement. Any judge whose judgement displease Eusoff is bound to find himself packing for a posting in a backwater place and his career immediately stunted. Under this shady perverter of justice the judiciary has won a smelly reputation locally and abroad as being thoroughly compliant to the executive.
5. Kadir Jasin
His newspapers were the propaganda machine of the ruling party
As Group Managing Director of the New Straits Times Press, his role in corrupting minds is far-reaching indeed. This sycophantic editor who once called for foreign journalists to be arrested under ISA for reporting the truth tried to mould public opinion by hiding the excesses of the ruling party and heaping undeserved praise on corrupt leaders to keep them in power. The strategies used include biased opinion pieces, omission of all negative reporting of the establishment, public airing of unsubstantiated allegations against political opponents without right of reply, sycophantic adulation of the prime minister, reporting only the negative points of the opposition and playing them up, outright lying and filtering foreign viewpoints for the favourable comments only.
6. Augustine Paul
A monster judge rode roughshod over all principles of jurisprudence to convict Anwar
Augustine Paul was handpicked to do a specific dirty job, that is to find Anwar Ibrahim guilty of some fanciful trumped-up charges. Anxious not to disappoint his political masters on his first important assignment, he proceeds to trample truth and justice in his courtroom in the crudest possible manner. He ran a banal kangaroo court which was so blatantly biased that it will forever shame the nation in the eyes of the world. The way that Paul bulldozed the flimsy prosecution's case through while suppressing material evidence from being aired speaks of a pure unadulterated evil . He held the future of the nation in his hands but he chose to sell his soul to the devil for a pittance.
7. Omar Mohammad
With a corrupt man at the helm, the last bastion of democracy fell to Mahathir
He is the Chairman of the Election Commission which comes to the fore to conduct the general elections every 5 years. When all checks and balances have been removed in the administration of government, the general election is the last bastion of democracy and the final check and balance to a power hungry dictator. This is in theory but the sad reality is that even the Election Commission has been corrupted by Mahathir. The 1999 elections was anything but free and fair. A massive 650,000 newly registered voters who were generally perceived as critical of the government were not allowed to vote on the shaky premise that it took the EC a mind boggling nine months to register them. The EC also failed to correct the stirring of racial and religious fears by Barisan Nasional politicians to garner votes.
8. Ahmad Zaki Husin
An agency to flush out corruption or to clean the corrupt?
Ahmad Zaki is the Director-General of the Anti-Corruption Agency. Under Mahathir this body has become severely degraded in the eyes of the public as a blindfolded toothless tiger when it comes to going after the big fish. The ACA has frequently been abused as a weapon to investigate and pull down political opponents. The ACA's most celebrated failure is its inability to conclude investigations into the Perwaja Steel case and bring charges against Tan Sri Eric Chia who lost frightening billions for the steel giant under suspicious circumstances. This is despite a devastating auditor's report which detailed fraudulent financial transactions with dummy companies. It also sank into a listless stupor over Anwar's four police reports with documented evidence against political bigwigs. On the other hand the ACA suddenly sprang to life over Datuk Murad's unsubstantiated allegations of billions in Anwar's "master accounts" although it has managed to dig up nothing. The ordinary citizen pays the price of big time corruption in higher prices of utilities and goods and the wastage of public funds.
9. Ling Liong Sik
He is the epitome of village headman bought over with money and whisky to keep the natives in line
This political hack is only interested in maintaining the status quo while he goes about the serious business of gathering wealth. And what an embarrassment of riches it has been with his son coming from nowhere to be an instant billionaire at the age of 27. On issues affecting the Chinese, you will not find this timorous leader speaking out whether it is the Nipah virus devastating the pig industry, non-acceptance of Chinese High School Certificates or criticism of too many Chinese movies in Astro. In fact he is ready and willing to accept erosion in Chinese rights to maintain his personal position, a fine example being his declaration that TAR college will not be upgraded to university status. It must be a bitter irony to the Chinese that this bogus leader who claims to represent them is elected from a Malay dominated electorate.
10. Samy Vellu
Architect of the MAIKA Telecom shares scandal, Samy Vellu proves that corruption pays in Malaysia
After 21 years of Samy Vellu at the helm of the MIC, Indians remain economically backward and left behind in Malaysia 's economic growth. Trapped in a vicious cycle of poverty, they have no financial, commercial or industrialized structure, marginalised in every economic field and in danger of becoming an underclass. His shinning achievement is the extension of Kamunting Berhad's concession to collect toll at Jalan Kuching despite the concession period having expired and company having recouped many times its original investment. An let's not forget Samy Vellu's role in hijacking MAIKA's Telecom shares to three unknown companies controlled by his proxy in 1990 thus depriving the agency entrusted with uplifting Indians of an estimated RM70 million in profits.
11. Rahim Noor
The Chief of Police turned out to be a lawless thug but he beat one prisoner too many
Rahim Noor was the Inspector-General of Police serving Mahathir faithfully by misusing the police force until he was forced to resign after beating up a deputy prime minister in prison. After shaming the police force and the nation he did not resign until his repulsive action was about to be exposed by a Royal Commission of Inquiry. Under him the police were cruel and oppressive, sometimes summarily executing criminals and beating up people in detention to the point of death.. The Special Branch was in charge of fabricating evidence from the dungeon of their confession factory with Muslim intellectual Munawar Anees as their most famous guest. Through Munawar's affidavit we are given a horrifying glimpse of torture Malaysian style.
12. Ummi Hafilda Ali
She plays a virgin in the light but needs no urging in the night
Disowned by her family and revealed as a scheming, manipulative, evil woman, she was the ideal person to be used by corrupt politicians in their conspiracy to destroy Anwar. Totally without conscience, she was a cesspool of immorality which made her the darling of like-minded Umno politicians. So here we have a rogue's gallery of the worse that Malaysia can produce. Working in co-operation with each other under the tyrant, they ensure that Mahathir, his family and his croonies continue the feast of corruption, cronyism and nepotism at the expense of ordinary Malaysians.
Who are the most evil and corrupt men and women in Malaysia ?
Here is a listing of the Dirty Dozen. Besides the top dog, the list includes his dark knights, from the Attorney-General to the Chief Justice, judges, the ACA, the Election Commission and the police force.

Totally without conscience, she was a cesspool of immorality which made her the darling of like-minded Umno politicians. So here we have a rogue's gallery of the worse that Malaysia can produce. Working in co-operation with each other under the tyrant, they ensure that Mahathir, his family and his croonies continue the feast of corruption, cronyism and nepotism at the expense of ordinary Malaysians.

Shamus and Musa fancied a pint or two but didn't have a lot of money between them, they could only raise the staggering sum of one Euro.
Musa said "Hang on, I have an idea."
He went next door to the butcher's shop and came out with one large sausage.
Shamus said "Are you crazy? Now we don't have any money left at all!"
Musa replied, "Don't worry - just follow me."
He went into the pub where he immediately ordered two pints of Guinness and two glasses of Jamieson Whisky.
Shamus said "Now you've lost it. Do you know how much trouble we will be in? We haven't got any money!!"
Musa replied, with a smile. "Don't worry, I have a plan, Cheers!"
They downed their Drinks. Musa said, "OK, I'll stick the sausage through my zipper and you go on your knees and put it in your mouth."
The barman noticed them, went berserk, and threw them out.
They continued this, pub after pub, getting more and more drunk, all for free.
At the tenth pub Shamus said "Musa - I don't think I can do any more ofthis. I'm drunk and me knees are killin'me!"
Musa said, "How do you think I feel? I lost the sausage in the third pub.

Five surgeons are discussing who has the best patients to operate on.
The first surgeon says, "I like to see accountants on my operating table because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered."
The second responds, "Yeah, but you should try electricians! Everything inside them is colour-coded."
The third surgeon says, "No, I really think librarians are the best; everything inside them is in alphabetical order."
The fourth surgeon chimes in, "You know, I like construction workers. Those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end, and when the job takes longer than you said it would."
But the fifth surgeon shut them all up when he observed, "You're all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on. There's no guts, no heart, noballs, no brains and no spine, and there are only two moving parts, the mouth and the asshole - and they are interchangeable.

A man bumps into a woman in a hotel lobby and as he does, his elbow goes into her breast.
They are both quite startled.
The man turns to her and says, "Ma'am, if your heart is as soft as your breast, I know you'll forgive me."
She replies, "If your penis is as hard as your elbow, I'm in room 221."

Sick Indian Man
A 27-year old indian allegedly raped his four-year-old daughter repeatedly at their home in Kangkar Pulai.
The contract worker's heinous act was uncovered when the victim complained of pain in her private parts.
When the mother, in her 20s, inspected her, she found blood in her daughter's private parts.
The girl then told her that her father had done things to her, which prompted the mother to lodge a police report.
Nusajaya OCPD Supt Abd Aziz Ahmad said police picked up the suspect on Tuesday.
'Initial investigations revealed that the suspect committed the offence repeatedly at their home while the wife was busy taking care of their two other children.
'The victim has been sent to the Sultanah Aminah Hospital for treatment and a medical check-up,' he said.
Supt Abd Aziz said the suspect might have committed the offence since early this month.
He added that the suspect also has a six-year-old son and a three-month-old baby. - The Star

Prataman's Salary Justifiable?
I found this discussion interesting, its on our very Honorable Prataman.
How do you justify President's pay?
From: hotdogpork 01:31
To: ALL 1 of 10
181217.1
From what I understand, his pay is $3,187,100 a year.
That's $265,591 a month.
Or $8,853 a day.
A don't see how anyone can justify taking close to $9,000 of public funds a DAY for a purely ceremonial role.
I don't even see how anyone can spend or need $9,000 a DAY no matter how ostentatious your lifestyle. If you made it yourself through your corporation that you own, nobody (except shareholders) will have anything to say.
But we're talking about public funds here. Funds that can be used to air-condition schools so students can concentrate better, funds for education programs for the poor to get them out of their situation, funds for medical subsidies, funds for R&D that will make S'pore a better place to live in, etc.
With this amount you can even start a trust fund that can pay $10,000 a month perpetually (and this amount will keep growing) that can be used to fund other worthy causes.
But as it stands, all this money is going to one man. How do you justify $9,000 of economic value a DAY as a ceremonial President? What do you do to justify this?
And then there's the problem of conflict of interest. One of the President's roles is to safeguard the country's reserves. When you're getting paid this kind of salary by the very people you're supposed to watch over, and you risk being removed for asking too many questions, isn't there an obvious conflict of interest?
I can't help thinking that this amount of money is given to silence him, instead of encouraging him to play an active role in safeguarding the country's money. Or am i wrong?
No matter how good a spindoctor you are, I don't see how anyone can think of a way to spin this. So the answer is to just keep silent and not say anything about it?

Kerala's unholy men
On tourist brochures, the southern Indian state of Kerala markets itself as 'God's Own Country'. But now, some godmen in the state are finding that they can't really have the run of the place.
The state government is on a hunt for men who have been accused of a host of crimes, including rape, molest and fraud.
It started with the arrest last month of Santhosh Madhavan, 35, who is also known as Swami Athmachaitanya.
Madhavan, 35, has been charged with the rape of a teenage girl, possession of marijuana and cheating a businesswoman.
During raids on his premises, a tiger skin and a large number of pornographic films and a police officer's uniform were found.
He is accused of cheating a Dubai-based Kerala businesswoman, MrsSerafin Edwin, of 4.5 million rupees ($145,000) in 2002.
She alleged in her complaint that she met the godman in Dubai and agreed to start a business with him. But after she gave him the money, he disappeared. She filed a case against him in Dubai and Interpol issued an arrest warrant.
His arrest on 13May came after a week-long drama that included his surrender to the police earlier and then release for 'lack of evidence'.
FROM PRIEST TO BUSINESS
Born to a poor family, Madhavan started as a temple priest, but soon switched to astrology and real estate business.
Police who raided his guest house found documents regarding several land deals, some of them suspected to be illegal.
Some of the obscene CDs, reports say, are hidden camera recordings of his 'VIP guests in action on the bed'.
Many politicians and police officials who appear on Madhavan's photo albums have quickly distanced themselves from him. A deputy superintendent of police has been suspended for being too close to him.
This officer is said to have helped Madhavan oversee his wedding arrangements last year.
The state government has ordered a detailed inquiry into his wealth.
Meanwhile, the Kerala High Court has ordered him placed in police custody till 17Jun.
Three complaints of rape have since been filed against the godman by three underaged girls.
They alleged that they were forced into sexual relations with him and appeared in a pornographic video.
Recounting how she met him, MrsEdwin told the Khaleej Times: 'A friend of mine had introduced Santosh Madhavan to me saying that he was an astrologer and had supernatural powers.
'When I visited him, he gave me a ring studded with stones. He convinced me later that he will help me buy a hotel in Deira (Dubai).'
The godman was then running a high-profile ashram in Kochi, Kerala, that was allegedly frequented by top politicians, police officials and film stars.
Even after India's Central Bureau of Investigation issued a warrant many months ago, he was not immediately arrested by the state police.
Why did Mrs Edwin remain silent all these years?
She claimed that she had received threatening calls from Kerala to withdraw the complaint.
But things changed when a local magazine article appeared.
The magazine named Madhavan as an alleged gun-runner who is wanted by the Indian federal police in connection with the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts. It alleged that Madhavan was living under a new identity as a godman in Kerala.
When the police, under pressure from the media and certain political parties, launched an enquiry, they found that Madhavan, who had turned himself into Swami Amritachaitanya, was not the gun-runner but the man wanted by the Dubai Police for the 2002 cheating case.
After the article appeared, MrsEdwin flew to Kerala and told the police that Madhavan even tried to kill her in Dubai after she demanded that he return her money.
He is alleged to have also visited Bahrain and Qatar and collected money from unsuspecting Indians working there.
'Madhavan came to Bahrain at least three times in the last five years,' one victim in Bahrain, who did not want to be identified, told the Gulf Daily News.
'He held talks and seminars on spirituality and told people to invest in a hill resort he was building in Kerala. He also made us believe that he was a social worker and was planning to start a charity institution in Kerala.'
The man alleged that Madhavan asked those who attended his talks to invest in a charity project. He is alleged to have raised at least 60,000 Bahraini dinars ($220,000) from Bahrain residents.
The Peninsula newspaper reported that Madhavan allegedly collected four million Qatari riyals ($1.5m) from Indian professionals, who were offered shares in hotels, resort projects and other profit-making ventures in Kerala. - AP
