OTTAWA - As the
Conservative Party celebrates its fifth anniversary
in power, it is recognizing a major reason for the
success: a swing in the Catholic and the ethnic vote
away from the Liberals.
OTTAWA
- Two University of Ottawa professors,
vocal critics of the federal Conservative government,
say they have become targets of a new political
intimidation tactic, aimed at using their private,
personal information against them.
House prices across the country could be headed for
a big plunge. According to a new report from Capital
Economics, home prices could drop by a quarter of

After

philanthropist, met the challenge - then trumped it
by giving an additional $2 million.

Cipriano case:
A lesson to be learnt TNN, Feb 8, 2011, 01.21am
IST
We keep blaming politicians for the mess around us.
I hear people say there is no future in Goa and that
we are all doomed. A recent example is the tragic
case of the late Cypriano, a victim of alleged
police brutality. While most of us sympathize with
his family, sadly, we have no one but ourselves to
blame. The present generation of native Goenkars is
bearing the brunt of the mistakes made by a majority
of Goans who have been part and parcel of the game
to destroy Goa and its future generations and
identities, either directly or indirectly, by
electing the corrupt and supporting corruption.
Hence, we are now witnessing an alarming rise in
cases of drug-politician-police nexus, rapes,
murders, an increase in the number of migrants,
thefts, accidents, unnatural deaths, harassment,
unemployment and major land-grabbing scams.
Why does the US so often back the bad guys? http://bbc.in/hF5a1K

Why is it that the United States - forged as a nation

Goa can be the
happiest State in the world: Mashelkar http://bit.ly/e26F7j

Goa should be the “happiest State in the world” by

harmony, pristine nature, and development without
destruction, eminent scientist Dr R A Mashelkar said
in the inaugural lecture of the D D Kosmabi Festival
of Ideas at Kala Academy, Panjim, on Saturday.
David Cameron has criticised "state
multiculturalism" in his first speech as prime
minister on radicalisation and the causes of
terrorism.
At a security conference in Germany, he argued the UK
needed a stronger national identity to prevent people
turning to all kinds of extremism. He also signalled a
tougher stance on groups promoting Islamist extremism.

TORONTO
- Students across the country are being
provided with a primer on black history in Canada just
in time for Black History Month.
The Historica-Dominion Institute is behind the Black
History in Canada Education Guide, which has been
shipped to more than 3,000 high schools. The institute
is the country's largest charitable organization
dedicated to Canadian history, identity and
citizenship. Jeremy Diamond, the institute's director
of development and programs, said the idea stemmed
from the success they had creating a similar campaign
around Paul Gross's film "Passchendaele" a couple of
years ago.

“so called” confessional statement of the
“self-styled” Swami Aseemanand
I first realised how different Egypt was when I saw
the bread in the street in Cairo. It was piled on low
charpoy-like tables, thick rounds of freshly-baked
bread, slightly scorched from the oven, a bit like
tandoori rotis, but heavier. In Egypt it is known not
as khubz, the Arab word for bread, but eish, a word
that can also mean 'life' or 'living'. There are many
varieties of eish, but this very basic one is called
eish masri, the bread, or life, of Egypt.

Lance Ribeiro
Acclaimed Indian artist who pioneered the use of
acrylics in the 1960s, producing a brilliancy of colour
in his expressionistic works
Lancelot Ribeiro, painter, was born on November 28
1933. He died on December 25, 2010, aged 77
Lancelot
Ribeiro, invariably known as Lance, was, until the
advent of Anish Kapoor, practically the best-known
Indian artist resident in England. The only one better
known was F. N. Souza, who happened to be his older
brother. Not so many knew about the connection, which
Lance kept very much in the background, fearing above
all that he would be thought to be riding on the coat
tails of his - during Souza’s heyday in the Sixties -
more famous brother.
