Yelchin presided over the chaos and confusion and transferred power to Putin, who, with iron hand, brought the country under control.&lt;br /&gt;
But why he and now his protege, Medvedev are not taking part in the international conflicts, is a mystery.&lt;br /&gt;
Do they not want to be a super power again?&lt;br /&gt;

That the UPA goverment chose not only to appoint such a man to the post of CVC but also defend the appointment in the highest court of the land, telling the stinking argument that 153 members of parliament are facing charges in the court-and still they are continueing as MPs - so why not another scam tainted man be appointed as the authority to stop scams-&lt;br /&gt;

It cannot continue for ever. After the revolution, a system of governance and constitution has to be put in place, which shall be generally acceptable to all the sections of the society. That is the daunting task. During protests and revolution, the fervour of defiance of authority carries the mass movment. But after the dictator is thrown out, confusion, chaos may result in the absence of authority. How quickly the leaders of the revolution put together a governing council and&amp;nbsp;establish law and order to allow normal life to go on is very important. There will be power struggles, may be violent to gain control of the governance.&lt;br /&gt;
Failure&amp;nbsp;to return to normal life with establishment of law and order will result in attrition of violence which will lead to disappointment of the valiant people who struggled for independance.&lt;br /&gt;
So now&amp;nbsp;how&amp;nbsp;Egypt is going to form a government smoothly, fastly, effectively will encourage other nations revolting for freedom.&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to do it, will demoralise the people revolting for freedom.&lt;br /&gt;
The revolt in Lybia has turned violent with 8000 people killed by Qaddafi's forces with air strikes et all.&lt;br /&gt;
One must eulogise the bravery of the common people fighting the armed forces.&lt;br /&gt;
What Egypt does after throwing out the dictator is important motivation to people of Lybia revolting to throw out the dictator.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
As per Hindu Philosophy (See the meaning in the link) &amp;nbsp;marriage is the union based on the the sense of unity, intimacy and love between husband and wife. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unity, intimacy and love need not be restricted to one person alone.&lt;br /&gt;
That is against natural instincts and feelings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lord Krishna, a Hindu God&amp;nbsp;has16000 female companions and all Christians nuns are supposed to have been married to Jesus Christ as per the oath of nuns. Islam allows a man to marry upto 4 women subject to some conditions. The first two categories are for the sense of unity, love but not for physical intimacy. The third, of course, is for all the three purposes. What is good for Gods should be good for humans as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, going by the defenition found above, marriage need not be between people of opposite sex alone.&lt;br /&gt;
After all, sense of unity, intimacy and love can be developed between the same sex.&lt;br /&gt;
So does it mean that Hindu Dharma has foreseen the Gay and Lesbian marriages, now legalised in some countries?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A man can love many women - mother, daughter, sister, aunt, grandma, grand daughter&amp;nbsp;etc., for the sake of unity and love. The same is the case for women. Is this a basis for approving polygamy and polyandry?&lt;br /&gt;
After all polygamy was prevalent in India, even now it is practiced though forbidden by law. Draupadi had five husbands, of course all of them brothers, May be because of that there was no conflict. Draupadi bore children to all the husbands. Polyandry is also seen in some tribal communities. I have seen in Nigeria that many wives live in separate huts around the husbands hut and take turns in sleeping with him and feeding him.&lt;br /&gt;
There is no conflict between the wives. There is more fight and conflicts between one man - one wife union&lt;br /&gt;
than in polygamy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Clearly it is time to revalue the institution of marriage in the raditional meaning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The institutions of marriage, one man&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The US has now a better reason to invade Libya, that is to save the lives of people protesting for freedom of democracy. Not only the US will be seen as acting as the champion of Democracy but The US will get the bonus Libya's oil, that is&amp;nbsp;2% of world oil production.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14pt;"&gt;Thoughts on Naraka Chaturthi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-align: center; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;Today is Naraka Chathurthi – the day the terrible demon, Narakasura, who persecuted the people and killed them with impunity was, killed by GOD and relieved the people of the evil demon’s atrocities.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;This is a Puranic story – undated – unlike Ramayan and Mahabharat which are supposed to have been enacted by real human beings, some 4000 to 6000 years back.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;We celebrate this day as Deepavali – some say as per the wish of the demon – with lighting of diyas, lamps, firing crackers – may be to imitate the sound of weapons during the war between God and the Demon.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;I was wondering at the the psychology of people which made them to celebrate an un-proven incident of victory, which can be read only in imaginative Puranas, with so much gaiety, colour, spending and joy, when the proven incident of Independence from the mean, looting English Demon, is to be observed – not celebrated&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;- only in Government institutions, schools, almost by official&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;force, and not by common citizens, who simply treat the Independance Day, as one of the paid holiday, &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;For all that matters, it is only 62 years back we got the &lt;city w:st="on"&gt;&lt;place w:st="on"&gt;Independence&lt;/place&gt;&lt;/city&gt; from the Demon of English rule, whereas it is – 5000 years back when we got the independance from the Demon of Narakasura.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;That is an intriguing question bothering my mind for years.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;This is also the case with Krihna Jayanthi, Ramnavami as compared to Ambedkar’s, Gandhi’s Jayanthi.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;The simple answer is the former is Religious whereas the latter is historical, not associated with religion. The former is divine – associated with Gods – and the latter is just practical – associated with mortal humans. God’s acts are superior than humans’ acts.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"&gt;But I am not satisfied by this simple answer.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;Now the question is – why is it that we believe anything religious blindly and follow them, even though we know very well that these incidents are purely imaginative story telling and there is no compulsion to follow and practice them; but we show great apathy towards celebrating proven historical incidents which have given us concrete benefits, reliefs, which directly have affected our lives.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"&gt;That, now, is the real question.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt -9pt; text-indent: 9pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="border-left: #1010ff 2px solid; font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt; margin: 5px 0px 5px 5px; padding-left: 5px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div id="ygrp-mlmsg"&gt;&lt;div id="ygrp-msg"&gt;&lt;div id="ygrp-text"&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 14pt;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Very well put. The only solution lies in reducing consumption of petrol and in fact all fossil fuels. much more use of solar energy is inevitable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: comic sans ms; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Anil kumar Singh&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 14pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="border-left: #1010ff 2px solid; font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div id="ygrp-text"&gt;&lt;div style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;Hi all,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the effort is laudable, the truth is different.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is not the oil companies that are looting the public by the sky high petrol prices.&lt;br /&gt;
We all know that 54% of the bunk price of petrol and diesel is made up of various central and state taxes.&lt;br /&gt;
Customs duty and CVD on imported crude (12%) &amp;nbsp;Excise duty on produced petrol (13%), Educational Cess on ED (2%)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;sales tax by the state government (30%)&lt;br /&gt;
Actually the oil companies are loosing Rs.3 for every liter of petrol produced and sold.&lt;br /&gt;
The avowed reason given by the govts for keeping the taxes high is to curtail consumption so that our import bill for crude,&lt;br /&gt;
which at present is touching Rs.one Lakh crore, comes down.&lt;br /&gt;
But even with this high price, the consumption of POL is increasing by 15% per year.&lt;br /&gt;
Just look at the number of cars, SUVs , bikes sold per year.&lt;br /&gt;
The sales figures are mind boggling at 30% year-on-year increase.&lt;br /&gt;
(No wonder all the major automobile manufacturers are setting up manufacturing units in India.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, coming to point, what will happen if we do not buy petrol for one day?&lt;br /&gt;
The sales will drop by say 50% on 14th Feb.&lt;br /&gt;
But the most probable thing we would have done is, we would have purchased&amp;nbsp;more petrol on the previous day,&lt;br /&gt;
or we will buy extra petrol on the next day, because, we are NOT curtailing our travel distance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instead what we should do is pledge to take public transport like bus or train for 4 days in a month.&lt;br /&gt;
Try car pooling for going in the same direction.&lt;br /&gt;
Share taxis and share autos are great Indian ideas to save money and &lt;var id="yui-ie-cursor"&gt;&lt;/var&gt;thereby to save petrol and diesel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, all the best for any effort to reduce consumption.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Petrol in Pakistan Rs 17 per liter, Malaysia Rs 18 per liter, In India it's Rs.65per liter. Why is there a difference within India itself? World Market CRUDE Oil is not the reason for this. It's all Gain for private owners? As we are the general public, or Common Man as R.K.Laxman wud have said, we have to raise our voice, let's raise thru Emails. &amp;nbsp; Forward this to all Indians who care. IT HAS BEEN CALCULATED THAT IF EVERYONE DID NOT PURCHASE A DROP OF PETROL FOR ONE DAY AND ALL AT THE SAME TIME, THE OIL COMPANIES WOULD CHOKE ON THEIR STOCKPILES. &amp;nbsp; AT THE SAME TIME IT WOULD HIT THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY WITH A NET LOSS OVER 4.6 BILLION DOLLARS WHICH AFFECTS THE BOTTOM LINES OF THE OIL COMPANIES. THEREFORE "Feb.14 th" HAS BEEN FORMALLY DECLARED. "STICK IT UP THEIR BEHIND" DAY AND THE PEOPLE OF THIS NATION SHOULD NOT BUY A SINGLE DROP OF PETROL THAT DAY. THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE DONE IS IF YOU FORWARD THIS E-MAIL TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN AND AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN TO GET THE WORD OUT. WAITING ON THE GOVERNMENT TO STEP IN AND CONTROL THE PRICES IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE REDUCTION AND CONTROL IN PRICES THAT THE ARAB NATIONS PROMISED TWO WEEKS AGO? &amp;nbsp; REMEMBER ONE THING, NOT ONLY IS THE PRICE OF PETROL GOING UP BUT AT THE SAME TIME AIRLINES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES,TRUCKING COMPANIES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES WHICH AFFECTS PRICES ON EVERYTHING THAT IS SHIPPED. THINGS LIKE FOOD, CLOTHING, BUILDING SUPPLIES MEDICAL SUPPLIES ETC. WHO PAYS IN THE END? WE DO! &amp;nbsp; WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.IF THEY DON'T GET THE MESSAGE AFTER ONE DAY, WE WILL DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN. SO DO YOUR PART AND SPREAD THE awareness WORD. FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW. MARK YOUR CALENDARS AND MAKE* **Feb.* 14 th. A DAY THAT THE CITIZENS SAY "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH" We forward so many junk email to many of our friends, now let us do it for some useful cause to cut down the price of the petrol .. .... &amp;nbsp; REMEMBER : *Feb * 14 th &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

In Bahrain, clashes between Shia protestors and Sunni supporters resulted in deaths.&lt;br /&gt;
In China, there is an early crackdown on the "JASMINE" revolt; there is a black out of internet news.&lt;br /&gt;
Everywhere, there is turmoil.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But I am not reading anything done by the UN to stop the killings and attacks on peaceful marchers.&lt;br /&gt;
Is it because&amp;nbsp;the UN has a mandate only in International Conflicts and not on internal violence?&lt;br /&gt;
Or has the role of UN has been usurped by the USA?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The UN has only called for end of crackdown in Lybia, but no action taken.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think that what is happening across countries in the Middle East is too serious and cannot be left only to these contries, but the International community has a responsibility to pressurose the regimes in stoppng the un-armed protesters.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Think originally, rationally, scientifically.

So also the Bill gates.&lt;br /&gt;
I do not know how and where these billions are used. That is a different thing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But What I used to wonder is why our Indian super rich Industrialists, the Ambanis, The Goenkas, the Birlas, the Tatas, the Jindals and Chettiars are not inclined to spend for the people of India, at least a part of their great wealth, accumulated by doing business in India.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I read about Mukesh Ambanis fabulous mansion, yacht, cars etc, which reeks of super rich owning thousands of crores of rupees. &lt;br /&gt;
What is their mentality? Dont they think about the poverty of their country? Dont they feel that they have to do some help to the poor of the nation? &lt;br /&gt;
After all he has become rich using the nations Oil &amp;amp; Gas, Cotton, land, labour and other raw materials.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I know only of Azim Premzi of WIPRO and Sudha Narayanamurthy of INFOSYS doing some social work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What about the rest ?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Are they so selfish that they do not want to spend even 1% of their wealth for the poor?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

No, in the long run. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The totalitarian regime can temporarily end the demonstrations for democracy, but the fire will only ignite more minds with anger of the violent reprisals. &lt;br /&gt;
Refer the news item in New York Times, 18th Feb 2011, which cries out that - Lybian crackdown ends with many dead and also the crackdown in Bahrain has only aggravated the situation. &lt;br /&gt;
The worst thing to happen is to pit the regime's loyalists to combat the protesters on the streets violently, thus escaping the responsibility of killings. &lt;br /&gt;
Tianenmensquare was different, a single isolated incident which was quelled with violence by closed &amp;nbsp;Communist Totalitarian Chinese regime on which the International pressure does not have any influence.&lt;br /&gt;
The mental paradigm has changed now. &lt;br /&gt;
It is not a single fire; it is a wild fire spreading fast through International borders.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only way is to engage the revolters in purposeful and sincere peace talks and assuage their feelings, &lt;br /&gt;
buy time and find an amicable solution acceptable to all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, that is not an easy task.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

He concedes that he is not able to do what he wants to do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That is the worst to come from the PM of the Greatest Democracy in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
It is too bad that we have such government which cannot govern.&lt;br /&gt;
Instead, I would rathar, not have such popular government.&lt;br /&gt;
I wish the country goes to Presidents Rule, pending another election.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dr.Singh is a top class&amp;nbsp; economist, But he is a poor administrator-politician. Instead of pleading helplessness and being a party to his own ministers robbing the nation, he should prevent and expose such&amp;nbsp;ministers, sack them or atleast threaten them to mend their ways; telling that he will otherwise call for dissolution of the government and call for fresh elections which every MP, MLA, minister is dead scared of.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
AB&amp;nbsp; Vajpayee also headed a coalition government of 26 parties. &lt;br /&gt;
He effectively used this threat of dissolution to control and contain and discipline the&amp;nbsp;ministers belonging to various parties. Vajpayee is a top class politician.&lt;br /&gt;
Coalition Dharma does not mean that the Government should allow the coalition partners to armtwist the Prime Minister to keep silent while robbing and stealing and stashing billions into Swiss Bank accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the other hand, he should find ways of controlling the erring ministers, companies.&lt;br /&gt;
Afterall he is the one fully and finally responsible for the country.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Think originally, rationally, scientifically.

The Russian revolution was taken over by the communists. The mighty USSR has been reduced to petty states ruled by criminals. Iran is in a state in misery as far as the Aam Admi is concerned. Common man's lot has only worsened with coming of democracy. In China, the party has given over to military black marketers. The only bright spot in this changing scenario is unification of the two Germanys and a stable political system. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Mankind's future is bleak. Some light seems to be emerging in India but the Pak-China-Taliban axis will not let democracy take firm roots in India. Scams increase when the bogey of Pak/China-Taliban is raised. It seems that the third law of thermodynamics prevails. Just as the universe is degenerating by conversion of matter into energy (entropy increase), similarly the Aam Admi is being ground into slavery. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The more things change, the more they remain the same!!!! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Justice, Equality and Fraternity is giving way to Might is Right, Honesty only amongst and for thieves and rule by the crooked!&amp;nbsp; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

That is true and we have seen the power of people through a peaceful revolution.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The army has taken over the country and sacked the upper and lower houses.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It will be most unfortunate if Egypt is transferred from one type of dictatorship (Hosni Mubarak) to another type (The Army). History has shown that whwnever the army takes power, it does not transfer power to the elected government as a matter of continuation.&lt;br /&gt;
Even if it does, it is only in the name but the real control is kept with the Army.&lt;br /&gt;
The classic example of this is the case of Pakistan, changing power form Army to Zulficar Ali Bhutto, Nawaz Sharieff. The army generals again took back the control keepin the PM and the President as stooges of the army. General Musharraf outlawed Nawaz Sharief. Benazir Bhutto was assasinated. Her husband Zardhari became the President but the Army and the ISI calls the shots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So the jubilation of the downfall of Hosni Mubarak does not automatically mean that Egypt will get wan it wants - A true free and just democracy like that of India.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That possibility cannot be taken for granted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
May be one more revolution is required to get rid of the Army rule.&lt;br /&gt;
If that happens, it will be a violent one, not like the peaceful one that is happening now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I hope it does not happen.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I hope Barack Obama, Medvedev, Hu Jintao are reading this.&lt;br /&gt;

Excise duty on  produced petrol (13%), Educational Cess on ED (2%)&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt; &lt;DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: inherit; FONT-SIZE: 12pt"&gt;sales tax by the state  government (30%)&lt;BR&gt;Actually the oil companies are loosing Rs.3 for every liter  of petrol produced and sold.&lt;BR&gt;The avowed reason given by the govts for keeping  the taxes high is to curtail consumption so that our import bill for  crude,&lt;BR&gt;which at present is touching Rs.one Lakh crore, comes down.&lt;BR&gt;But  even with this high price, the consumption of POL is increasing by 15% per  year.&lt;BR&gt;Just look at the number of cars, SUVs , bikes sold per year.&lt;BR&gt;The  sales figures are mind boggling at 30% year-on-year increase.&lt;BR&gt;(No wonder all  the major automobile manufacturers are setting up manufacturing units in  India.)&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;So, coming to point, what will happen if we do not buy petrol for  one day?&lt;BR&gt;The sales will drop by say 50% on 14th Feb.&lt;BR&gt;But the most probable  thing we would have done is, we would have purchased more petrol on the previous  day,&lt;BR&gt;or we will buy extra petrol on the next day, because, we are NOT  curtailing our travel distance.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Instead what we should do is pledge to  take public transport like bus or train for 4 days in a month.&lt;BR&gt;Try car  pooling for going in the same direction.&lt;BR&gt;Share taxis and share autos are  great Indian ideas to save money and &lt;VAR id=yui-ie-cursor&gt;&lt;/VAR&gt;thereby to save  petrol and diesel.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Well, all the best for any effort to reduce  consumption.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Love&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Thangavelu&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;

Petrol in Pakistan Rs 17 per                  liter, Malaysia Rs 18 per liter, In India it's Rs.65per liter.                  Why is there a difference within India itself? World Market                  CRUDE Oil is not the reason for this. It's all Gain for private                  owners? As we are the general public, or Common Man as                  R.K.Laxman wud have said, we have to raise our voice, let's                  raise thru Emails.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Forward this to all Indians who                  care. IT HAS BEEN CALCULATED THAT IF EVERYONE DID NOT PURCHASE A                  DROP OF PETROL FOR ONE DAY AND ALL AT THE SAME TIME, THE OIL                  COMPANIES WOULD CHOKE ON THEIR STOCKPILES.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; AT THE                  SAME TIME IT WOULD HIT THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY WITH A NET LOSS OVER                  4.6 BILLION DOLLARS WHICH AFFECTS THE BOTTOM LINES OF THE OIL                  COMPANIES. THEREFORE "Feb.14 th" HAS BEEN FORMALLY DECLARED.                  "STICK IT UP THEIR BEHIND" DAY AND THE PEOPLE OF THIS NATION                  SHOULD NOT BUY A SINGLE DROP OF PETROL THAT DAY. THE ONLY WAY                  THIS CAN BE DONE IS IF YOU FORWARD THIS E-MAIL TO AS MANY PEOPLE                  AS YOU CAN AND AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN TO GET THE WORD OUT.                  WAITING ON THE GOVERNMENT TO STEP IN AND CONTROL THE PRICES IS                  NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE REDUCTION AND CONTROL                  IN PRICES THAT THE ARAB NATIONS PROMISED TWO WEEKS                  AGO?&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; REMEMBER ONE THING, NOT ONLY IS THE PRICE OF                  PETROL GOING UP BUT AT THE SAME TIME AIRLINES ARE FORCED TO                  RAISE THEIR PRICES,TRUCKING COMPANIES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR                  PRICES WHICH AFFECTS PRICES ON EVERYTHING THAT IS SHIPPED.                  THINGS LIKE FOOD, CLOTHING, BUILDING SUPPLIES MEDICAL SUPPLIES                  ETC. WHO PAYS IN THE END? WE DO!&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; WE CAN MAKE A                  DIFFERENCE.IF THEY DON'T GET THE MESSAGE AFTER ONE DAY, WE WILL                  DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN. SO DO YOUR PART AND SPREAD THE awareness                  WORD. FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW. MARK YOUR                  CALENDARS AND MAKE* **Feb.* 14 th. A DAY THAT THE CITIZENS SAY                  "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH" We forward so many junk email to many of our                  friends, now let us do it for some useful cause to cut down the                  price of the petrol .. ....&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; REMEMBER : *Feb * 14                  th&amp;nbsp; &lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;/TD&gt;&lt;/TR&gt;&lt;/TBODY&gt;&lt;/TABLE&gt;-- Pravir Chitre          Assistant Professor (Computer Application), Bhai Parmanand Institute of          Business Studies, (Under, Department of Training &amp;amp; Technical          Education, Government of Delhi.)

&lt;br /&gt;
It is the violent methods adopted by a group of people for their cause.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We have Islamic terrorism (Taliban) Maoist terrorism (CPML) &amp;nbsp;Religious Terrorism (Hanuman Sena)&amp;nbsp;Racist terrorism (Zionism)&amp;nbsp;Linguistic terrorim (LTTE) regional terrorism (AASU) Sovereign terrorism (Somalia), Separatist terrorism (Kashmir, Palestine,Chhechhnia), &amp;nbsp;and so on...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What is terrorism to&amp;nbsp;one group&amp;nbsp;is struggle, revolution for&amp;nbsp;the other group&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;Terrorism is the violent expression of impotant anger triggered by injustice.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color: red;"&gt;It is&amp;nbsp;generated by aggression, suppression, cruelty, usurping of land, country.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is a reason for each&amp;nbsp;case of terrorism.&lt;br /&gt;
Palestine, Kashmir for Islamic terrorism.&lt;br /&gt;
Poverty and hunger for Maoist terrorism.&lt;br /&gt;
Linguistic injustice for Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam and so on..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Terrorism cannot be ended permanantly by violent reaction.&lt;br /&gt;
It can be ended only by sincerely addressing and removing the root cause for the terrorism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to do this will, one day or other, result in mass uprising like that in Egypt in a tsunami of peoples' anger.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I hope the powers that be will come to their senses to understand this historic truth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: inherit; FONT-SIZE: 12pt"&gt;sales tax by the state government (30%)&lt;BR&gt;Actually the oil companies are loosing Rs.3 for every liter of petrol produced and sold.&lt;BR&gt;The avowed reason given by the govts for keeping the taxes high is to curtail consumption so that our import bill for crude,&lt;BR&gt;which at present is touching Rs.one Lakh crore, comes down.&lt;BR&gt;But even with this high price, the consumption of POL is increasing by 15% per year.&lt;BR&gt;Just look at the number of cars, SUVs , bikes sold per year.&lt;BR&gt;The sales figures are mind boggling at 30% year-on-year increase.&lt;BR&gt;(No wonder all the major automobile manufacturers are setting up manufacturing units in India.)&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;So, coming to point, what will happen if we do not buy petrol for one day?&lt;BR&gt;The sales will drop by say 50% on 14th Feb.&lt;BR&gt;But the most probable thing we would have done is, we would have purchased&amp;nbsp;more petrol on the previous day,&lt;BR&gt;or we will buy extra  petrol on the next day, because, we are NOT curtailing our travel distance.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Instead what we should do is pledge to take public transport like bus or train for 4 days in a month.&lt;BR&gt;Try car pooling for going in the same direction.&lt;BR&gt;Share taxis and share autos are great Indian ideas to save money and &lt;VAR id=yui-ie-cursor&gt;&lt;/VAR&gt;thereby to save petrol and diesel.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Well, all the best for any effort to reduce consumption.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Love&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Thangavelu&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;

Petrol in Pakistan Rs 17 per liter, Malaysia Rs 18 per liter, In India it's Rs.65per liter. Why is there a difference within India itself? World Market CRUDE Oil is not the reason for this. It's all Gain for private owners? As we are the general public, or Common Man as R.K.Laxman wud have said, we have to raise our voice, let's raise thru Emails. &amp;nbsp; Forward this to all Indians who care. IT HAS BEEN CALCULATED THAT IF EVERYONE DID NOT PURCHASE A DROP OF PETROL FOR ONE DAY AND ALL AT THE SAME TIME, THE OIL COMPANIES WOULD CHOKE ON THEIR STOCKPILES. &amp;nbsp; AT THE SAME TIME IT WOULD HIT THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY WITH A NET LOSS OVER 4.6 BILLION DOLLARS WHICH AFFECTS THE BOTTOM LINES OF THE OIL COMPANIES. THEREFORE "Feb.14 th" HAS BEEN FORMALLY DECLARED. "STICK IT UP THEIR BEHIND" DAY AND THE PEOPLE OF THIS NATION SHOULD NOT BUY A SINGLE DROP OF PETROL THAT DAY. THE ONLY  WAY THIS CAN BE DONE IS IF YOU FORWARD THIS E-MAIL TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN AND AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN TO GET THE WORD OUT. WAITING ON THE GOVERNMENT TO STEP IN AND CONTROL THE PRICES IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE REDUCTION AND CONTROL IN PRICES THAT THE ARAB NATIONS PROMISED TWO WEEKS AGO? &amp;nbsp; REMEMBER ONE THING, NOT ONLY IS THE PRICE OF PETROL GOING UP BUT AT THE SAME TIME AIRLINES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES,TRUCKING COMPANIES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES WHICH AFFECTS PRICES ON EVERYTHING THAT IS SHIPPED. THINGS LIKE FOOD, CLOTHING, BUILDING SUPPLIES MEDICAL SUPPLIES ETC. WHO PAYS IN THE END? WE DO! &amp;nbsp; WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.IF THEY DON'T GET THE MESSAGE AFTER ONE DAY, WE WILL DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN. SO DO YOUR PART AND SPREAD THE awareness WORD. FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW. MARK YOUR CALENDARS AND MAKE* **Feb.* 14 th. A DAY THAT THE CITIZENS SAY "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH" We forward so many junk email to many  of our friends, now let us do it for some useful cause to cut down the price of the petrol .. .... &amp;nbsp; REMEMBER : *Feb * 14 th &amp;nbsp;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;/TD&gt;&lt;/TR&gt;&lt;/TBODY&gt;&lt;/TABLE&gt;-- Pravir Chitre Assistant Professor (Computer Application), Bhai Parmanand Institute of Business Studies, (Under, Department of Training &amp;amp; Technical Education, Government of Delhi.)

&lt;DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: inherit; FONT-SIZE: 12pt"&gt;sales tax by the state government (30%)&lt;BR&gt;Actually the oil companies are loosing Rs.3 for every liter of petrol produced and sold.&lt;BR&gt;The avowed reason given by the govts for keeping the taxes high is to curtail consumption so that our import bill for crude,&lt;BR&gt;which at present is touching Rs.one Lakh crore, comes down.&lt;BR&gt;But even with this high price, the consumption of POL is increasing by 15% per year.&lt;BR&gt;Just look at the number of cars, SUVs , bikes sold per year.&lt;BR&gt;The sales figures are mind boggling at 30% year-on-year increase.&lt;BR&gt;(No wonder all the major automobile manufacturers are setting up manufacturing units in India.)&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;So, coming to point, what will happen if we do not buy petrol for one day?&lt;BR&gt;The sales will drop by say 50% on 14th Feb.&lt;BR&gt;But the most probable thing we would have done is, we would have purchased&amp;nbsp;more petrol on the previous day,&lt;BR&gt;or we will buy extra  petrol on the next day, because, we are NOT curtailing our travel distance.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Instead what we should do is pledge to take public transport like bus or train for 4 days in a month.&lt;BR&gt;Try car pooling for going in the same direction.&lt;BR&gt;Share taxis and share autos are great Indian ideas to save money and &lt;VAR id=yui-ie-cursor&gt;&lt;/VAR&gt;thereby to save petrol and diesel.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Well, all the best for any effort to reduce consumption.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Love&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Thangavelu&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR style="RIGHT: auto"&gt;

Why is there a difference within India itself? World Market CRUDE Oil is not the reason for this. It's all Gain for private owners? As we are the general public, or Common Man as R.K.Laxman wud have said, we have to raise our voice, let's raise thru Emails.&lt;WBR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;WBR&gt;Forward this to all Indians who care. IT HAS BEEN CALCULATED THAT IF EVERYONE DID NOT PURCHASE A DROP OF PETROL FOR ONE DAY AND ALL AT THE SAME TIME, THE OIL COMPANIES WOULD CHOKE ON THEIR STOCKPILES.&lt;WBR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;WBR&gt;AT THE SAME TIME IT WOULD HIT THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY WITH A NET LOSS OVER 4.6 BILLION DOLLARS WHICH AFFECTS THE BOTTOM LINES OF THE OIL COMPANIES. THEREFORE "Feb.14 th" HAS BEEN FORMALLY DECLARED. "STICK IT UP THEIR BEHIND" DAY AND THE PEOPLE OF THIS NATION SHOULD NOT BUY A SINGLE DROP  OF PETROL THAT DAY.&lt;WBR&gt;THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE DONE IS IF YOU FORWARD THIS E-MAIL TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN AND AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN TO GET THE WORD OUT. WAITING ON THE GOVERNMENT TO STEP IN AND CONTROL THE PRICES IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE REDUCTION AND CONTROL IN PRICES THAT THE ARAB NATIONS PROMISED TWO WEEKS AGO?&lt;WBR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;WBR&gt;REMEMBER ONE THING, NOT ONLY IS THE PRICE OF PETROL GOING UP BUT AT THE SAME TIME AIRLINES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES,TRUCKING COMPANIES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES WHICH AFFECTS PRICES ON EVERYTHING THAT IS SHIPPED. THINGS LIKE FOOD, CLOTHING, BUILDING SUPPLIES MEDICAL SUPPLIES ETC. WHO PAYS IN THE END? WE DO!&lt;WBR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;WBR&gt;WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.IF THEY DON'T GET THE MESSAGE AFTER ONE DAY, WE WILL DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN. SO DO YOUR PART AND SPREAD THE awareness WORD. FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW. MARK YOUR CALENDARS AND MAKE* **Feb.* 14 th. A DAY THAT THE CITIZENS SAY "ENOUGH  IS ENOUGH" We forward so many junk email to many of our friends, now let us do it for some useful cause to cut down the price of the petrol .. ....&lt;WBR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;WBR&gt;REMEMBER : *Feb * 14 th&lt;WBR&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;WBR&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;/TD&gt;&lt;/TR&gt;&lt;/TBODY&gt;&lt;/TABLE&gt;&lt;WBR&gt;&lt;WBR&gt;&lt;WBR&gt;&lt;WBR&gt;&lt;WBR&gt;-- &lt;WBR&gt;Pravir Chitre&lt;WBR&gt;Assistant Professor (Computer Application),&lt;WBR&gt;Bhai Parmanand Institute of Business Studies,&lt;WBR&gt;(Under, Department of Training &amp;amp; Technical Education,&lt;WBR&gt;Government of Delhi.)&lt;WBR&gt;Email: &lt;A href="http://in.mc948.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=pravir.chitre@gmail.com" rel=nofollow target=_blank&gt;pravir.chitre@gmail.com&lt;/A&gt;&lt;WBR&gt;&lt;A href="http://in.mc948.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=p_chitre@hotmail.com" rel=nofollow target=_blank&gt;p_chitre@hotmail.com&lt;/A&gt;&lt;WBR&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;WBR&gt;&lt;WBR&gt;&lt;WBR&gt;-- &lt;WBR&gt;&lt;FONT color=#888888&gt;-- &lt;BR&gt;Regards,&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Vidya&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;"Print this mail only if absolutely necessary.

that it IS a man made light, shattering the belief which existed for 100s of years, thus bringing the question of credibility of claims of not only this temple but also the entire gamut of religious believes, faith of not only contemporary origin but also the proclamations of priests, oracles, scripts, missionaries, fakirs, swamies about divine phenomena taking place as evidence of the existance and power of the supernatural beings such as God.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This raises the question whether the concept of God as a super natural being, Omniscient, Omnipresent and Omnipotent, capable of controlling your life, bringing good or bad things for the devoties, is mearely a concept formulated by vested interests to deceive, cheat, hoodwink, brainwash the masses to follow the ministrations of the Priests, Brahmins, Oracles.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is not a small matter which is to be brushed aside by superstitious, stupid, sheepish minds, but a matter which profoundly affects the rationality of the rituals and beliefs of religion by millions of masses.&lt;br /&gt;
