Uparkhandadhar (Orissa), Nov.14 : In a revolting incident of superstition some villagers in Uparkhandadhar village of Sundergarh district in Orissa allegedly forced four women accused of being witches to eat human excreta under the disguise of witches. The police have arrested eight persons, including two women for this heinous action.
These four women were locked in a room for three days by six men and two women. They were allegedly forced to pay a fine of 500 rupees each and forced to consume human excreta.
âThey beat us with a bible and said we were lying and that we are practicing witchcraft. They also fined us for it and forced us to consume human excreta,â said Kapri, one of the victim.
According to police, the four women were tortured as they were accused of practicing sorcery and spreading disease in the village.
âOur police team rushed to the spot and rescued the four women. We also filed cases against the two women and eight men accused of branding four women as witches. We also filed a Court challan against them,â said Bibudhendu Ku Aich, Officer In Charge, Lahunipara.
The Government of Orissa has a law against aiding and abetting witchcraft.
In 1999, the Government also passed an act against witchcraft, âWitch Prohibition Act-1999â, according to which six months imprisonment and a fine of 2,000 rupees can be imposed on a person found guilty of torturing innocent women.
Surprisingly, in most cases the practitioners of witchcraft as well as their victims are women.
While cases of women practicing the occult is known, in most cases it is innocent women who are branded as witches and subjected to torture and even death.

Now quick - in 24 hours or less name any meaningful legislation put forth by the fine Democrat from California. This is an open net test. Good Luck!!!
Hawke's Bay grape grower Chris Howell wonders how he's going to handle pruning this season after learning it could be painful for his vines. The Tauranga-based Society for the Protection of Organism Feelings has written to Mr Howell and other Hawke's Bay growers calling for a ban on field trials, a newspaper reported. Spokesman Timothy Pickering said an agri-chemical company was carrying out field trials of its products on live crops, fungi and insects in New Zealand.
"We'll be taking action, and organising protests, to bring to the attention of horticulturists that plants, fungi and insects do in fact have feelings, and suggesting measures to increase feelings of peace, love and harmony within the fields and paddocks of New Zealand," he said.
The Hawke's Bay Grape Growers Association discussed the matter at a committee meeting earlier this year, and recently published a letter from the society in its newsletter, Vitis Informus. In his letter, Mr Pickering said recent research by overseas biologists had found evidence that plants sensed and reacted to the presence of leaf-chomping grubs.
"Their response was to emit an odour similar to lavender, thereby alerting other plants to the presence of a predator," he said.
"This process also served to attract wasps, which were drawn by the odour to the plant where they either devoured the grub or injected it with eggs that later killed it."
He claimed other experiments had shown electrical resistance changes in a plant when a researcher thought about burning leaves on the plant. The society was committed to protecting the rights of plants and insects so they wouldn't be exposed to any negative feelings - including fear. But Mr Howell said grapegrowers were bemused and wondered whether the letter was a university prank.
Not that he's ignoring his own vines' very definite feelings.
"They are sensitive wee souls," he said. "They like being looked after and pampered, which is what we do. They don't like it too cold or too hot."
Mr Howell, the chairman of the Grape Growers Association, said it had not responded to the society, which gave just a box number as its address. But he and other members had notices that its initials made up the word "spoof".

Things are going to get a whole lot better when vegans, Janeists and PETA as a whole finally realize that the miracle of life is that it relies utterly upon death.
If it weren't so bone-chilling, a grafitti I saw recently would have been absolutely hilarious. Scrawled upon a wall was:
Equal Rights For Animals
So, pesticide and warfarin manufacturers get their own little Nuremburg trials?
If human beings are going to live, something's got to die. The sooner this simple fact is recognized the better off all of us are going to be. Humane treatment of animals is a noble aim. Asserting that plants and animals must be accorded the same sympathies as our fellow humans is plainly ridiculous.
A company that used to call itself Pajamas Media now calls itself Open Source Media, which is â scroll down to our legal notice â kind of exactly what we call ourselves. Theyâve collected $3.5 million in venture capital, and, to celebrate their re-naming of our already-named name, theyâre holding an event at the Rainbow Room.

My crystal ball is sayin' that some attorney sharks are already sharpening their teeth... getting ready to bite large chunks of the venture capital nest egg.
Heh.

Despite what people at the link think, you can't trademark a descriptive term in common use. I assume the pajama media people have been give this legal advice, if not they can always send the check to me.

Actually it's about time they begin dealing with the effects of the prolific and accepted inbreeding in Soddie Arabia. At least they will be kept in Soddie and not become homicide bombers around the globe.
By Robert Marquand, Staff writer of The Christian Science MonitorThu Nov 17, 3:00 AM ET
Shi Jin wears a jean jacket, has razor-cropped hair, and seems gravely earnest. An officer in the People's Liberation Army, he was wooed from a Beijing vocational college three years ago by recruiters who talked up his technical aptitude - and his patriotism.
In the past decade, China has undergone two military high-tech reforms designed to give the country a modern fighting force. To sustain that progress, it must attract many more gung-ho young engineers like Shi, who spends most of his time working on an "informational" revolution that planners hope will one day allow them to "see" a battlefield with the same depth as the US military. "I will not do any direct fighting if there is a war, but I am contributing on the technical side," he says. "We are all needed in the new Army."
China's desire, often stated, is to be a great nation. Many in Beijing feel that the country's natural right is to be the major power in Asia. But China has rarely been given high marks in global military annals. It has a "brown water" Navy that doesn't navigate open seas. It can't project power by sending forces abroad. It has relied on states like Russia for jet fighters, cruise missiles, and other advanced weapons.
Yet it now appears China is methodically changing this equation. and painting a big red America please destroy us sign across their country
In a surprisingly short time, China has accomplished two feats. One, it has focused its energy and wealth on creating an army within an army. It has devoted huge amounts of capital to create a small high-tech army within its old 2.2 million-member rifle and shoe-leather force.
The specialty of this modern force, about 15 percent of the PLA, is to conduct lightning attacks on smaller foes, using an all-out missile attack designed to paralyze, and a modern sea and air attack coordinated by high-tech communications. In other words, this new modern force is designed to attack Taiwan. Who's taking bets on a timetable? Continued on Page 49

Won't make a bit of difference. The Americans do this so that they can support the guy on the end of the bayonet. They give the authority to act to the sergeant on the ground kicking in the door. The Chinese are doing this because they think it will allow them to micro-manage the battlefield. Its all cultural. Their sergeant will be just waiting to be ordered what to do next like a thousand other ones. That's when the system collapses. Too many decision points, too faster overwhelm the decision makers at the higher level trying to extend their personal control on the battlefield. Its the nature of the beast. You think the ComChi's are going to give thousands of sergeants authority? Heh.

Article: "We [the US] spend $400 billion on defense. We don't have the right to decide other nations' threats," commented a career defense official in Washington.
I guess this must be CSM's pet liberal in the Pentagon talking. Other countries routinely criticize us for having a presence in their region, despite the fact that we've never attacked a country that didn't threaten American interests. What Rumsfeld said about the Chinese is no different from what the Chinese are saying about the US.
#3
Article: Historically, in fact, China is not an aggressor. It rarely attacks.
CSM is peddling an academic shibboleth that happens to be patently untrue. You do not become the third largest country in the world by not being an aggressor. Besides, in the past 60 years alone, China has initiated border conflicts with India, the Soviet Union, Vietnam and the Philippines, not to mention attacked Korea right as UN forces were about to unify all of it.
If China is not an aggressor, the Ottoman and Spanish empires weren't aggressors either, since they spent most of the last 2 centuries falling apart. But how did those empires get built? China acquired Tibet in the 20th century - a territory that is fully 1/6 of total Chinese land holdings - but China is not an aggressor? Gimme a break.

China developed its A-bomb and ballistic missiles before the era of Chinese trade surpluses. China is a more or less self-sufficient continental-sized power like Russia. Even if a US embargo were still in place, China would be developing its military rapidly - it is essentially a political rather than an economic decision. The key to rapid Chinese growth in recent years has been the government's abandonment of communist economic principles, combined with relative Chinese backwardness compared to its East Asian neighbors. American imports of Chinese goods have been important, but not essential to Chinese economic growth.
Bright Chinese college graduates don't join the Chinese military - in China, they are considered dead end jobs that pay very little - unless they're connected, in which case the opportunities for graft are quite lucrative. But corrupt recruits who get in via nepotism don't exactly help China build a modern military, do they? As to US-educated Chinese college grads, the vast majority of them stay in the US. The minority who return to China certainly wouldn't do anything as gauche as join the military, where a lifetime's pay wouldn't earn back the cost of their expensive foreign educations.
Another Euro poll reveals 40% opposition to police use of arrest power against rioters. So the Euros want the jihadi rioters to be treated like free range sacred cows. No wonder the riots have not burned out yet.
Boston, 17 Nov. (AKI) - A member of the Saudi royal family found guilty in the US of killing a 37-year-old father - allegedly while drunk - will get just one year in prison under a plea agreement being presented to a Massachusetts court on Thursday. The sentence has angered relatives of victim, Orlando Ramos, particularly as 23-year-old Bader al-Saud will get to choose which prison he serves his sentence in, the Boston Herald reports.
"He killed someone and he gets to pick where he wants to go to jail?" the newspaper quoted Paula Caruso, the mother of Ramos' 16-year-old daughter, as saying. "Why? Because he has money he gets to choose?"
"It appears the defendant is being given special consideration that your typical Suffolk defendant isn't usually given," said attorney Richard A. Eustis.
Al-Saud is reported to have chosen to serve his sentence in the island prison of Dukes County Jail and House of Corrections in the exclusive Martha's Vineyard area. A local newspaper recently described the jail, saying: "If not for the trailers and barbed wire exercise yard in the back, visitors to Edgartown could easily mistake the century-old Dukes County Jail and House of Corrections for one of several inns lining Main Street."
The Saudi royal who previously studied philosophy at Suffolk University in Massachusettes, was driving down a road at almost 80 kilometres an hour in a luxury sports utility vehicle in October 2002 when he hit Ramos, whose body landed some 45 metres away, according to the authorities. Police said al-Saud's blood alcohol level was at .12. The legal limit is .08 in the United States. In Saudi Arabia, legal limit for blood alcohol level is .00. He was 19 or 20 at the time of the accident, but police said they found an international driver's licence in his leased BMW X5 giving a false date of birth which put him at 24.
After the accident al-Saud was held on a 200,000 dollar bail pending trial, and released after the money was given to him by the Saudi embassy in Washington.
Under a tough new drink driving law recently passed in the state of Massachusetts, the mandatory minimum sentence for a driver who kills someone while under the influence of alcohol is now five years rather than one. Suffolk County officials had originally planned to prosecute him for felony homocide, the Boston Herald reports, but their case weakened when al-Saud's lawyers pushed to get hold of Ramos' mental health records.

He's not connected enough to get a Diplo Passport, huh? To be honest, I'm amazed he will actually get a year. How much will he serve at the country club? 4 months, 6 months, maybe?
The only way there will be any justice in a case like this is if the relatives kill him when he gets out - and get away with it. The one thing that's certain: they won't have to wait long.
Unclear on the concept:
A 60-day, top-to-bottom review of the United Nations's renovation plans - meant to bring down the $1.2 billion cost of the project, described by many real estate experts as over-inflated - has instead sent the project's estimated price tag soaring to $1.9 billion.
Just throw these whores out. The moronic $600M "loan" offer is moronic. Indeed, Sen Sessions - it's OUR money, not yours OR theirs. Rent some shitty second-hand trailers and Porta-Potties and tell 'em to take it or leave.
Sony made an unpopular product decision and got its reputation incinerated by waves of flaming bloggers. That's a lesson for other companies. Sony's decision to withdraw its controversial copy-protected CDs followed weeks of flames by bloggers. Sony BMG Music Entertainment said Wednesday it will stop selling 50 CD titles with its XCP content protection software. Sony also said it will remove the discs from stores, and offer replacements without copy protection to customers.
Before Sony acted, the company suffered through weeks of angry posts by bloggers who stirred outrage against the company. It started when security researcher Mark Russinovich first posted to his blog that Sony's music CDs surreptitiously installed digital rights management software based on a "rootkit"--a hacking tool widely considered to be spyware. Following that, bloggers of all stripes, from seasoned security experts to aggrieved consumers, vented about the record company's unethical and possibly illegal behavior. "It seems crystal clear that but for the citizen journalists, Sony never would have done anything about this," says Fred von Lohmann, senior intellectual property attorney for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a cyber liberties advocacy group that has been vocal in its condemnation of Sony and may eventually file a a lawsuit against Sony, in addition to three that have already been filed. "It's plain to me that it was Sony's intent to brush the story under the rug and forget about it."
Alan Scott, chief marketing office at business information service Factiva, said, "I think that we're in an entirely new world from a marketing perspective. The rules of the game have changed dramatically. The old way of doing things by ignoring issues, or with giving the canned PR spin response within the blogosphere, it just doesn't work." Thomas Hesse, Sony BMG's Global Digital Business President, attempted to do just that by dismissing the online protests. "Most people, I think, don't even know what a rootkit is, so why should they care about it?" he said in a November 4 interview on National Public Radio's Morning Edition. He added, "The software is designed to protect our CDs from unauthorized copying and ripping."
Blog search site Technorati.com shows well over a hundred blog postings ridiculing this particular quote, each of which may have been linked to by other blogs. The day before the NPR interview, Sony attempted to mollify its critics by offering an update that "removes the cloaking technology component" of the XCP DRM software. The update notes claim, "This component is not malicious and does not compromise security." That's simply not true--the rootkit component allows attackers to take control of target computers. Moreover, another component, the uninstaller Sony provided to remove the XCP software, did compromise security. And once again, it was the blog community that brought this fact to light.
In their Freedom-to-Tinker.com blog, computer researchers J. Alex Halderman and Edward Felten confirmed the findings of a Finnish computer expert that the uninstaller utilizes a poorly coded ActiveX control that allows any Web page a user visits to install and run any code its like on the user's machine.

It appears Federal law my have been violated as well. Typical of "Big Corp" think Sony decided to ignore the furror and hope it would go away. Now someone my have to fall on their sword for the ham handedness and profits will be effected. I am considering a Xbox 360 over the PS3, something I would have never considered before this whole mess. Sony is now on my list of companies to not buy products from.

SONY really missed an opportunity to "go for the screw-up gold". Unlike other companies that have been caught out, SONY didn't try to press criminal charges against Mark Russinovich for violating the DMCA. Which is surprising, because SONY is no stranger to the DMCA.
Sony has invoked section 1201 to protect their monopoly on Playstation video game consoles, as well as their "regionalization" system limiting users in one country from playing games legitimately purchased in another.
Sony has also used the DMCA to threaten hobbyists who created competing software for Sonyâs Aibo robot dog, as well as to sue makers of software that permits the playing of Playstation games on PCs. In each of these two cases, the DMCA was used to deter a marketplace competitor, rather than to battle piracy.

My first wife (aka Jabba the Slutt) lives in Massachusetts. Her weight more than doubled after she left me. Massachusetts isn't really safe for her. There are beaches there, presenting a danger that she might be accidentally harpooned by a passing Japanese ship or rolled into the sea by well-meaning eco-activists.
At least now she won't have to worry so much about her current husband being arrested for boffing a marine mammal.
WASHINGTON - Iraq War protester Cindy Sheehan and 26 other peace activists were found guilty Thursday of protesting without a permit near the White House. They were each ordered to pay $75 in fines and court costs, but Sheehan's lawyer said he plans to appeal the verdict.
"We weren't demonstrating," Sheehan told reporters after the trial.
All the defendants contended they were trying to deliver petitions to the White House calling for an end to the war in Iraq on Sept. 26, but found no one willing to accept them.
"Our petitions were rejected like every request I have made of the president has been rejected," Sheehan said.
Sheehan, 48, of Berkeley, Calif., has tried repeatedly to meet with President Bush since her 24-year-old son, Casey, was killed in Iraq last year. She spent several weeks near the president's Crawford, Texas, ranch this summer, and plans to return there Thanksgiving week.
"I absolutely believe he has an obligation to meet with me," Sheehan said.
The defendants were among 300 people arrested by U.S. Park Police after they spent more than an hour on the Pennsylvania Avenue sidewalk north of the Executive Mansion. While some sat on the sidewalk, others chanted and sang songs. They were taken into custody after refusing police orders to leave.
"The actions they were taking were designed to attract attention," said U.S. District Magistrate Judge Alan Kay.
A federal regulation prohibits demonstrations without a required permit outside the White House by groups larger than 25 people.
"They were consciously violating the law for publicizing their case," Kay said.
Sheehan said she plans to take her peace activist message to Europe next month with stops in London and Madrid.

(CNSNews.com) - College students trust the United Nations more than they trust the federal government, according to survey results released Wednesday by the Harvard University Institute of Politics. The survey, the latest in a series of college surveys conducted by the IOP, found that 52 percent of college students "trust the United Nations to do the right thing all or most of the time." Forty-four percent felt the same way about the United States government. Even fewer, 39 percent, said they trust President Bush to do the right thing all or most of the time.
The U.S. military is the most trusted institution among college students, "despite the war in Iraq," according to the survey. Sixty-five percent of students said they trust the military, while 60 percent said they trust the Supreme Court to "do the right thing."
Very strange results, wonder what percentage of the students were stoned when polled
Students' trust in the U.N. eclipses the general public's faith in the organization, according to a January 2005 Harris Interactive poll, which found that only 30 percent of American adults "tend to trust" the United Nations, while 44 percent "tend not to trust" it.
IOP consultant John DellaVolte told Cybercast News Service that the group always finds a high level of support for the U.N. among college students. In April 2004, an IOP survey found that 74 percent of American college students believed the U.N. should "take the lead" in addressing international issues. "This generation thinks about politics much differently than the generation before, where it's not constrained to just North America," DellaVolte said. "They see how the entire world is interconnected."
DellaVolte said the biggest opinion gaps between students and older Americans involve issues relating to international relations. "When you look at issues related to the right track or wrong track of the country ... college students are in line with the general electorate," DellaVolte said. But on issues related to the war and the United Nations, "college students are much more likely to give the United Nations the benefit of the doubt as compared to older Americans."
DellaVolte said he thinks students view the U.N. differently because their studies and job opportunities make them "more optimistic about the process and the involvement of the United Nations and other nations in the world." Dr. Nile Gardiner, a fellow at the conservative Heritage Foundation, said the survey results should come "as no real surprise" because "college students tend to be overwhelmingly idealistic and tend to be more left-of-center than conservative as a whole."
Gardiner said that "often students do not pay sufficient attention to what is actually happening inside the United Nations and in terms of what the U.N. is doing on the international stage." "Their faith in the United Nations is hugely misguided," Gardiner said, "especially in light of not only the oil-for-food scandal, but a wave of recent scandals that have fundamentally harmed the image of the United Nations across the United States." Gardiner said he thinks students' opinions of the U.N. are shaped largely by "a biased interpretation of the work of the U.N. and other international institutions through liberal professors who tend to dominate the majority of American campuses."
That, and the fact you rarely see any reporting on UN failures by the MSM.
The IOP survey covered a wide variety of political issues. Ninety-one percent of students said that running for elected office is "an honorable thing to do," but 70 percent said politicians "seem to be motivated by selfish reasons."
I'd agree with that
It also found that fewer than 50 percent of college students consider themselves "politically active."
Three quarters of the student population believes that "signing an e-mail petition about a social or political issue," and "wearing a t-shirt to reflect your political or social opinion" constitute political activity.

mmurray brings up a good point. I'd like to see the breakdown of who they polled, not only major by major (liberal arts vs. engineering, etc.), but also which schools were polled. I'd be willing to bet somehow they didn't poll any SEC schools!

You must remember that each university is ground zero for liberal brainwashing. At some point the college students will realize that the lib professors are now "the man" and will revolt.
At some point. That will probably take a dem in office though since so many of them are blinded by the seething Bush hatred all around they get confused.

No only are many of these little pinheads brainwashed but they attack anyone that doesn't follow or believe the political crap that they are handed. I had a run in with one of these little experts last night. He knew "everything", but knew nothing of reality. The outright crap they except as "fact" and reality is mind boggling.
