| | Chinese Government Expands Censorship to America | | 2008-04-17 20:00:00 | | China has been in the news a lot lately. As she prepares to host the summer 2008 Olympics many are decrying the government's infringements on human rights and their involvement in Darfur, Sudan, Africa. Today the Chinese government is angry with CNN for calling its government as a "bunch of goons and thugs." China refused to accept this apology. Ummm, freedom of speech and freedom of the press?? It's obvious those are big no-nos in China if their government is trying to stop CNN from its thoughts on China. Citizens in China are censored from CNN anyway.Nice. In the mean time, freedoms of speech and press are going to live on in America, thank you.Sign A Petition!Reporters Without Borders has been outspoken about China's repressiveness in media (and otherwise).

| | Box temple expands itself to encroach public land | | 2008-04-08 09:25:00 | | There was a small projection to a compound wall in front of one of the houses wherein a Ganesha Idol was kept and few local people worshipping it. Quite a harmless thing.But I happened to notice recently that a small makeshift fence has been set up around this box temple, occupying public land.No wonder, if this box temple will expand itself to occupy 50% of the road in next 6-12 months. Building places of religious worship is an easy way to make money and occupy precious real estate. Due to sensitive nature of the issue politicians and administration often hesitate to take stern action. Just keeping on record current scenario here, we’ll revisit this post after an year or so to see if the temple has occupied more space by expanding itself. Probably a bigger temple will be built around it with stories cooked up to highlight the historical significance of this place or how powerful this particular god is.Related post: Omkareshwara Temple, Madikeri * Ganesha Festival AftermathBrought | | By: eNidhi - A professional amateur | | |

| | JET EXPANDS | | 2007-06-06 23:09:24 | | VANCOUVER:
Unveiling its plans for the newly created hub at Brussels, Jet Airways on
Wednesday said it would operate five flights a day from India to the Belgian
capital and provide seamless connections for onward journey to the US and
Canada.
The hub would give the
airline access to the entire Europe, besides allowing services to North
America.
It would focus not
only on connecting Indian passengers, but also carry traffic fed by Brussels
Airlines from Europe and Africa for onward journey to the US and
Canada.
Jet Airways has got ten
pairs of slots at the Brussels airport, which is handling only about half of its
capacity of over 30 million passengers
annually.
"It has got a lot of
space and capacity, which we will be using. Since (Belgian carrier) Sabena
closed down, the airport was being operated only by the Brussels Airlines and
some American carriers. We are the only Indian carrier to be creating such a hub
on foreign soil," Jet Airways Chief Naresh Goyal said | | By: IBIBO | | |

| | Flybe expands | | 2007-05-18 18:58:17 | | Alex Robertson Textor of EuroCheapo.com looks at the options for Flybe.
Will UK budget airline Flybe soon be challenging Ryanair and easyJet in
Europe’s top-tier of low-cost carriers?
Exhibit A: BA Connect Purchase. Flybe purchased BA Connect last November,
and most of the BA subsidiary’s 63 routes were transferred to Flybe in
March.
Exhibit B: New Planes. This week, Victoria Moores noted on Flightglobal.com
that just last week Flybe placed an order for 15 Bombardier Q400 planes. The
airline has now committed to a full 60 Q400 planes-no trifling commitment by
any measure. Moore reports that the airline is set to continue their
rapid-fire expansion with new routes into France, Scandinavia, and Spain.
If Flybe wants to join the top leagues, they’ll need to distinguish
themselves from the pack. We suggest that they update their livery, or make
a big deal about the routes they fly that other carriers don’t touch, or
begin to provide a few perks here and there-or | | By: Europe a la Carte Blog | | |
| | Law Of Attraction: What You Think About Expands | | 2007-05-03 23:11:29 | | I have been having a lot of positive correlations lately with the energy I put out into the universe and what the universe serves back to me. I used to be somewhat more skeptical about the law of attraction, but now as I put it into use and examine it, I find more and more truth to it.
I began to notice things when I drastically shifted my paradigm of the universe, people and relationships. The out look that I chose to have towards people is that I love all of them. All people are wonderful, and their differences make them really special. By completely eliminating the use of judgmental comments, and gossip, I have been able to shift my mind away from even thinking these things.
It’s one thing when you want to change, but then there are people around you, with their own different view points and their own realities. I didn’t let that stop me from standing my ground, even when people around me were speaking in such ways about other people, or even if I knew that someone out | | By: Alex Shalman . com - Practical Personal Developmen | | |
