| VJTI lecturer beaten over Shivaji poem
MUMBAI: It was meant to be a fun occasion for the teaching and non-teaching staff of the Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI). Instead, Friday evening's get-together turned into a shocking affair, with activists of Shiv Sena's labour wing thrashing a lecturer.
Activists of Bharatiya Kamgar Sena assaulted lecturer Sanjay M G for reciting a poem with "objectionable content" against Shivaji during the annual get-together. The lecturer is also an office-bearer of the National Alliance for People's Movements (NAPM). No police case has been registered.
The institute had organised a get-together of all teaching and non-teaching staff members to promote team spirit. Several faculty members and non-teaching staff share light moments during this annual get-together.

How to make authentic Texas chicken-fried steak
Texas writer Frank X. Tolbert may forever be linked with chili, but he was a connoisseur of chicken-fried steak, too. He would not be happy with the state of the steak today. Thirty years ago, his Dallas Morning News column foreshadowed the pitiful shape of things to come: "Those occasional incompetents in cafe kitchens who fry steaks in a thick armor of batter despoil the ancient fame of chicken-fried steak." Today, that's how virtually all restaurant chicken-fried steak is made: Drag it through a thick batter, and throw it into a deep-fat fryer. There are two problems with this. First, that's not how authentic chicken-fried steak is prepared, and second, deep-fat frying leaves no drippings with which to make cream gravy. .
McClaren axed by FA
The whole attitude needs to change and that comes from the fans aswell. However they have a right to boo, because the moral injustice of what these players recieve but dont produce is rediculous. It all comes from grass roots with the juniors we restrict kids enjoymnet and freedom to express themselves and thats why we get good players, but not great players. We have a very basic and cinical attitude ruled by the brainless british bulldogs that surround football in all areas at all levels in this country. .

Keeping ‘Hope’ alive
Frank) went into the regular hospital, but understaffed nurses can't sit and play Scrabble," Zamora says. "He went to Omega, and it was such a loving place. It's an eight bed Montrose mansion, and it feels like a home. The decor was donated by interior designers, and Frank's room had clouds in the ceiling." Fiona Dawson, director of Resource Development at Bering Omega, has been helping with the logistics for "Sing for Hope" for three years. It is now the organization’s signature event. But despite the swanky setup, she says it’s not "your traditional gala." "There's no silent auction," Dawson says. The evening begins with a prelude for those who purchase VIP tickets, hosted by the honorary chairs—Mayor Bill White and his wife, Andrea.
Obama's Hispanderama
The Plano Con is back. Once again a leftish movie is claiming "red-state" embrace simply because it's doing good business at a metroplex in what one kf reader calls a "ritzy, upscale, SUV-choked, conspicuous-consumption-driven Dallas exurb populated by more east-coast 'expatriates' than native Texans." Last year it was Brokeback Mountain's producers, via Frank Rich [$], successfully using the bogus Plano example. This year it's the promoters of Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth. S.F. Chronicle's gullible Joe Garofoli reports (in an article headlined "Gore movie is reaching the red states too") that Truth is getting "off-the-chart audience recommendations in conservative bastions like Plano." The film's pleasing of Plano allegedly shows it's is reaching what its director Davis Guggenheim calls "that guy driving a pickup who is a little bit skeptical of what global warming is about." Don't believe it.
Tight "Money"
There is a whole big issue...which has not fully played out in regard to providing credit and liquidity to institutions, so I think it is a dangerous period for the world. I think we are going to go through next year, certainly the first half of next year, with considerable traumas.'" November 28 - Financial Times (Michael Mackenzie and Saskia Scholtes): "Investor flight from anything bearing the taint of the US subprime mortgage crisis has pushed financial companies debt to its weakest versus US Treasuries in more than five years. Energy, utilities and telecommunications companies, conversely, have seen their lower-rated BBB bonds attract haven buying. This divergence is a stark indicator of one root cause of the current credit crunch: the unwinding of leverage on the part of investors.
