  Eye on the media - 2
Some news items and issues that caught my eye and made me interested:


  1. George Bush and the Republican Party are the best friends of India.
  2. Why I hate the Democrats? Who does not know that NPT has been an abysmal failure? China has repeatedly violated NPT in spite of being a signatory by supplying nuclear technology to North Korea and Pakistan. Of course, nobody has the balls to say anything to China. I christen the Democrats as the morally superior (in their own opinion) pricks who love nothing but a spot in the media to preach from the pulpit.
  3. The cartoon controversy in Denmark.
  4. M.F.Hussain and the lunatic right of India - our own version of the controversy over the freedom of speech.
  5. The travesty of justice in India - The Jessica Lal case.
  6. Some hope for the riot victims of Gujarat.

I have become very busy with two jobs to make my ends meet and finish my PhD. I am literally working days and nights. My new boss is a remarkable man. Hopefully, once I settle down into this schedule, I will be able to blog more frequently.

"Saptarishi" in Sanskrit means the Seven Sages or rishis who are extolled at many places in the Vedas and other Hindu literature. They are regarded in the Vedas as the patriarchs of the Vedic religion. The constellation of Ursa Major is also named as Saptarshi. (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saptarishi)
