Govt says Noida CEO death a warning, India Inc in shock

Govt says Noida CEO death a warning, India Inc in shock

CEO death a warning? Is the f***ing Labour Minister Oscar Fernandes out of his mind? Is it ok to go and kill? Shouldn't the f***ing minister try and ensure that the culprits are convicted, shunned from society for ever?

We should start killing ministers as we sure have been frustrated by them. May be only then their lot will be warned!

Pastor: GOP may be downplaying Palin's religious beliefs - CNN.com

Pastor: GOP may be downplaying Palin's religious beliefs - CNN.com

What a quote!
"When the spirit comes on you, you utter things that nobody else can understand ... only God can understand what is coming out of our mouths."

"Sarah wasn't taught to look for one particular sign -- a cataclysmic sign. She knew as every Christian does ... that God is sovereign and he is in control."

Palin's former pastor says he has no doubt her religious beliefs will influence her decision making when it comes to government policy. Regarding her desire to build an Alaskan pipeline and explore for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, McGraw told CNN, "Sarah knows that in Genesis, God creates the world and it's very good and that we're supposed to be caretakers in terms of not destroying the environment, so there's no way that Sarah is going to exploit or damage the Alaska tundra in the name of getting gas if she doesn't have to."

Maybe GOD should be the next President or at least McCain's VP!

Jihadi Engineers

IEEE Spectrum: Extremist Engineers

It would be interesting to know from where these engineers came. It seems most were from the developing world. It would also be interesting to know what is the most sought after degree in such parts of the world. In India at least, engineering is highly sought after a degree as the job market has a demand for engineers. Maybe it is because most investment has gone into colleges that teach engineering and/or medicine.

I am not sure about the claim that people who take to engineering have more radical values. I think it is people who live in societies where radicalism is largely prevalent, and it may be a coincidence that engineering, due to other reasons, is the most sought after profession in those societies. At least from my own experience, engineering must make one less radical and fanatic and more accepting of others.

Mobs rule over campuses!

Mobs rule over campuses - Columns - livemint.com [via IndiaUncut]

It seems the only way you can get people to agree with you is disallowing them to listen to others! An act of cowardice to say the least.
