Jindal to decide on race for presidency after Nov Decision would not hinge on polls or fundraizing, reveals the Indian-American Louisiana governor IANS, NEW YORK

L

ouisiana’s Indian-American Republican Governor Bobby Jindal has acknowledged that he’s considering a 2016 run for president, and will make his decision after the November Congressional elections.

His decision would not hinge on polls or fundraizing, he told reporters at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast on September 17.

Only three percent of Republican primary voters backed him in a new CNN/ORC poll of Republican presidential possibles in New Hampshire, which holds the first primary in the U.S. presidential election cycle.

The governor finished at the bottom of a field of 11 potential presidential candidates. But he says that would not be a factor, the Monitor reported.

“If I were to decide to run for 2016, it would have nothing to do with polls or fundraising,” said the governor.

“It would simply be based on the

same calculation that I made when I ran for... Congress or governor.”

The determining questions, he said, were, “Do I think I can make a difference, do I think I have something unique to offer?”

“I think at this point polls are measuring name ID,” Jindal was quoted as saying by CNN.

Bharara wants Obama critic jailed ARUN KUMAR, NEW YORK

“The first time I ran for office, I was... polling within the margin of error, which means I was at zero.”

“There’s no reason to be coy,” he said. “I am thinking, I am praying about whether I’ll run in 2016.”

Jindal called President Barack Obama the worst American president since Jimmy Carter.

NEW YORK: The public reception organized by the Indian community in the United States in honor of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New York on September 28 would be hosted by Miss America 2014 Nina Davuluri and a popular Indian-origin news anchor.

Davuluri is the first IndianAmerican to be crowned as Miss America 2014, and Hari Sreenivasan is a PBS NewsHour Weekend anchor.

“Citizens of the world’s greatest democracy are eager to hear from the leader of the world’s largest democracy,” Anand Shah, spokesperson of Indian American Community Foundation (IACF), was quoted to have said by a news website.

The foundation has the support of more than 400 IndianAmerican organizations from across the country. Shah added that there is a great enthusiasm among Indian Americans for the public reception of Narendra Modi.

“Tickets to the event are free. The program has been generously sponsored by thousands of individuals who are excited to participate in an unprecedented show of support to promote a stronger friendship between the U.S. and India,” Shah said in a IACF statement.

LONDON: After facing a lot of disappointment in Britain’s Coventry schools, members of the Indian-origin Sikh community have set up their own school for their new generation.

Opened in Coventry, a city and metropolitan borough in the county of West Midlands, the newly opened Seva School presently offers education to 130 pupils (aged four to seven) for free, the Coventry Telegraph reported.

Most of the students are of Sikh faith but a handful are from other faiths as well.

Like many primary schools in Coventry the school follows the International Primary Curriculum, and teachers are using Kagan strategies, a method where pupils work closely together in groups and help each other.

“The trustees are born and bred in Foleshill suburb in Coventry and want to give something back to the community,” said deputy head teacher at SEVA School, Suneta Bagri.

“The focus would be on textiles as a case study,” she said to a newspaper when contacted.

She studied in the same university for her law degree in 2006 and where in 2010 she got a doctorate in law.

“I am happy and also excited about being on the faculty ... It is a triumph and recognition for the work that I have done. There have been other Indians appointed to other faculties but never in the field of law,” added Haldar.

‘India-US

business to touch $1tn’

Technology is a key area where bilateral business may grow manifold, says a paper ARUN KUMAR, WASHINGTON

A

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be in US later this month.

head of In d i a n Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s landmark visit to the United States later this month, an Indian foreign policy think tank has raised the tantalizing prospect of IndiaU. S. partnership touching $1 trillion by 2030.

To elevate the bilateral trade from $120 billion in 2013 to $1 trillion in 2030, Mumbai-based Gateway House, in a research paper authored by a former Indian-American Obama administration official, advocates a different path for the India-U.S. bilateral from all others.

Nish Acharya, a senior adviser at Northeastern University, suggests a path “based on the hockey-stick curve more typical of tech start-ups, one that will bring India into the group of the three other countries outside of the G7 which have a deep economic relation-

ship with the U.S.: Israel, Mexico and South Korea”.

“Technology, then as now, presents the springboard for the future of a vigorous India-U.S. partnership,” writes Acharya who as the director of innovation and entrepreneurship led the Obama administration’s efforts to nurture economic growth through innovation, entrepreneurship and commercialization.

The paper identifies four positions that India must pursue, and four that the U.S. must pursue for the success of the engagement. Suggestions for India include creation of a ‘surge’ — “rapid and intense deployment of talented individuals and technical experts to address critical and immediate challenges in areas such as infrastructure, healthcare, energy and agriculture”.

Leading and innovating new technologies can create millions of new jobs and opportunities in India, he said. “Towards this, India needs to build a ‘Silicon Swadesh’ — a robust entrepreneurial ecosystem, modelled on Silicon Valley, to support home-grown innovation and entrepreneurship across several Indian cities,” Acharya suggested.

T

No stops for Modi in US ARUN KUMAR, WASHINGTON

N

ot long ago, Narendra Modi was not welcome in the United States. But the U.S. is now pulling out all stops to woo him when he comes calling at the White House as India’s prime minister at the end of this month.

President Barack Obama will host a dinner for him on September 29 before bilateral talks at the White House the next day and this will be followed by a lunch hosted

by Vice President Joe Biden at the State Department.

What a difference an election makes! Long forgotten is Modi’s alleged inaction or complicity in the 2002 Gujarat riots that led the State Department to revoke his visa in 2005.

Modi may not have forgotten, but he too is not letting his personal feelings come in the way of repairing India-U.S. ties which touched a low last December over the arrest and strip search of India’s

“one of the defining partnerships of the 21st century, one which will be vital to U.S. strategic interests in Asia-Pacific and across the globe”, India’s ties with Washington are its most important relationship.

Obama and his predecessors, Republican George Bush and fellow Democrat Bill Clinton all visited India, underscoring the increasing importance of the bilateral relationship.

But despite the optics, there is cautious optimism on the outcome of the Modi visit which is expected to be primarily focused on economic ties, defense, trade and technology exchanges.

Red carpet for Xi Chinese President Xi Jinping arrives on a three-day visit; trade investment top the agenda; several agreements to be inked IANS, Ahmedabad

C

hinese President Xi Jinping arrived in Gujarat on September 17 to a ceremonial welcome on the first leg of his three-day India visit that is aimed at ramping up trade and investment ties with India.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi received the Chinese president and his wife Peng Liyuan at Hotel Hyatt where the two leaders held talks, and agreements related to the region, including setting up of Chinese industrial parks, were inked.

A guard of honor was presented to the visiting Chinese president on the tarmac of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport of Ahmedabad and he was received

by Chief Minister Anandiben Patel.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi welcoming Chinese President Xi Jinping in Ahmedabad on September 17. The First Lady of China, Ms. Peng Liyuan is also seen.

After welcoming the Chinese president at the hotel, Modi took him around a pictorial gallery featuring Vadnagar, Modi's hometown, and its Buddhist links.

Seventh century Chinese traveler Hiuen Tsang had visited Vadnagar during his 15-year stay in the country.

Clad in his iconic half-sleeve kurta and a wood colored jacket, Modi interacted warmly with Xi. Xi flew down to Ahmedabad from Colombo, becoming the first world leader to begin an India visit from Gujarat.

Huge hoardings of the Chinese president, his wife, Modi and the Chief Minister Anandiben Patel adorned the commercial capital of Gujarat.

Xi spent six hours in Ahmedabad, where he visited Mahatma Gandhi's Sabarmati Ashram.

Later he attended a private dinner at the Sabarmati Riverfront park developed by Modi when he was the chief minister of Gujarat.

The Sabarmati riverfront is a pet project of Modi and was developed on the line of the Thames river of London.

In Vietnam, Prez extols Modi IANS, NEW DELHI

V

isiting Vietnam’s business capital on the penultimate day of his state visit, President Pranab Mukherjee on September 16 extolled the city’s transformation to a regional economic hub after a tumultuous past, and also praised the Narendra Modi government back home for improving India’s economy and its image aboard. Modi got a welcome boost from Mukherjee, who unex-

pectedly largely abandoned his prepared speech to a gathering of the Indian community in Vietnam and instead extolled the NDA government.

“After the new government (led

by Modi) came out with a massive mandate they also worked out... of course, it is too early to formulate cogent policies for the full five years but the first budget presented by the new government outlines some of the crucial policies,” Mukherjee said.

Bypoll shocker for BJP IANS, Jaipur/Lucknow/Ahmedabad/ Kolkata

T

he BJP on September 16 suffered major reverses in the assembly byelections in Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Gujarat that saw the Congress and the Samajwadi Party bounce back, even as the ruling party at the Centre won a significant victory by getting a lawmaker into the West Bengal assembly after a 15-year hiatus.

This is the third time that the Bharatiya Janata Party has suffered reverses in bypolls since the Narendra Modi government came to power riding on the back of a massive mandate in the April-May general election.

The election results, which have led the jubilant Congress to declare that the Modi wave is over, also come as the BJP-led government completed 100 days in power.

In Uttar Pradesh, the ruling Samajwadi Party made a stunning comeback as it won eight of the 11 assembly seats that went for byelections. It also retained the Mainpuri Lok Sabha seat which was vacated by

s historical records confirm that the recent floods in Kashmir have been worse than the worst ever — that in 1893 — the human suffering and devastation caused have few parallels in the Valley’s recent history.

Walter Lawrence, who documented the 1893 floods in his famous book, “The Vale of Kashmir”, says the water level in the Jhelum river in Srinagar reached 27 feet.

While Lawrence says the areas on the left bank of the Jhelum were part of the city’s flood basin in 1893, today it has densely-populated residential and commercial areas of Rajbagh, Jawahar Nagar, Gogjibagh, Wazirbagh, Natipora, Chanapora, Barzalla, Santnagar, Rawalpora, Peerbagh, Bemina, Qamarwari and a dozen others.

The flood waters that hit the Valley like a Tsunami during the intervening night of September 67, inundated all these areas.

In Gujarat, where Modi was chief minister for around 13 years till he came to the centre, the BJP won six assembly seats, while the Congress won three.

The BJP also won the Vadodara Lok Sabha seat by over 300,000 votes. Bypolls were held for nine assembly seats — Maninagar, Deesa, Tankara, Khambhalia, Mangrol, Talaja, Anand, Matar and Limkheda — and the Vadodara Lok Sabha seat on September 13.

The Congress won Deesa, Khambhalia and Mangrol assembly seats, while the remaining six went to the BJP. The Vadodara parliamentary seat was retained by the BJP after deputy mayor Ranjanben Bhatt won against Congress candidate Narendra Rawat by over 300,000 votes. For the BJP, the reversal in fortune was most stark in Rajasthan, where the Congress won three of the four assembly seats while the ruling BJP won only one seat.

More than 200,000 have been rescued from the inundated residential areas but officials say over 100,000 are still trapped.

CHENNAI: Superstar Rajinikanth on September 17 petitioned the Madras High Court seeking a stay on the release of Hindi film Main Hoon Rajinikanth. He said the film might defame him and upset his large fan base. In his petition, Rajinikanth said he has “never endorsed” any film or product using his name as it might “mislead his fans”. Justice S. Tamilvanan issued interim stay on the release of the film with the title and content.

The riverfront diplomacy: Nehru to Modi Unlike the nondescript ‘Glass House’ in Punjab, the 600-year-old city of Ahmedabad was spruced up to host the top leaders of the world’s two most populous countries who met and dined at the Riverfront Park JAIDEEP SARIN, NANGAL (PUNJAB)

A

s Prime Minister Narendra Modi sat down to host Chinese President Xi Jinping at Ahmedabad’s Sabarmati Riverfront on September 17, it will not be a first such riverfront interaction between two top leaders of both countries.

Almost 50 years ago, this small town in Punjab hosted Chinese premier Chou Enlai on the invitation of the country’s first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru.

The location was the Sutlej riverfront with magnificent hills in the backdrop.

The ‘Glass House’, where both Nehru and Enlai met and discussed the “Panchsheel Principles of Mutual Co-Existence”, today stands as a testimony of the historical meeting here. Some of the furniture used at that time, in the mid-1950s, is still there.

The small, single room glass house is located inside the complex of the ‘Sutlej Sadan’, a government guest house managed by the Bhakra Beas Management Board (BBMB). A small rock placed outside the glass house points out that the ‘Panchsheel Principles’ were discussed at this riverfront location. “It is another matter that despite the bonhomie displayed by both leaders here at that time, both

re-counting the visit of the Chinese premier.

Nangal town, located about 110 km from Chandigarh and a population of around 45,000, is more famous for the 225-metre high

Bhakra Dam near here. The Bhakra-Nangal project has been one of the pioneer hydro-electric projects in post-independent India with Prime Minister Nehru describing it as a “Temple of a resurgent India”.

Unlike the nondescript glass house in Nangal, the 600-year-old city of Ahmedabad has been spruced up to host the top leaders of the world’s two most populous countries who will meet and dine at the Riverfront Park, on the banks of the Sabarmati river in the upscale Shahi Baug area.

The park has got a new look with rustic rural Gujarati ambience especially created for the leaders to indulge in a sumptuous candlelight dinner and some “guppaguppi” (banter in Gujarati).

In the fore and backgrounds, there will be a cultural programme of tribal and folk dances and music, along with Garba and Dandiya — the state’s favorite, graceful yet robust dance form — which is what the upcoming nineday Navratri festival is all about.

Five huge air-conditioned domes have been created at the picturesque Riverfront Park on the river’s eastern bank, where the two dignitaries and a select 150 guests shall savor pure vegetarian and exquisite Gujarati cuisine prepared by top chefs.

Mamata’s decline: It’s now Ma, Mati, Mafia AMULYA GANGULI, NEW DELHI

M

amata Banerjee belongs to the dwindling tribe of regional politicians who look upon their profession through a partisan lens, which means that their focus is almost entirely on advancing the prospects of their parties. They have neither the ability nor the inclination to do anything for their states.

Some are also fixated on augmenting their own bank balances.

Fortunately, the West Bengal chief minister is not one of them. But she is with the others in the matter of having little idea of purposeful governance and economic progress.

In Mamata’s case, it isn’t caste which propelled her to the top of the popularity charts around 201011, but the promise of change or ‘poriborton’ from the three-decadeold Left rule.

The change was to be not only from economic stagnation, caused by the flight of capital because of militant trade union tactics and frequent strikes, but also from the

high-handedness of the Communist cadres who ruled the roost in virtually every locality.

It was Mamata’s courageous stance against these political goons, exemplified during the agitations in Singur and Nandigram against the acquisition of land, which laid the foundation of her electoral triumph in 2011. The slogan behind her victory was ‘Ma-Mati-Manush’, which underlined her proximity to ordinary people and the pursuit of a compassionate version of politics unlike the hauteur and aggression of the Marxists.

However, the ‘poriborton’ which she promised has turned out to be for the worse. The reasons are, first, her inability to make the transition from being a rabble-rouser to an administrator. Almost all her acts have been motivated by a desire to grab the headlines — from walking out of the Manmohan Singh government to opposing Pranab Mukherjee’s candidature for the president’s post. Secondly, her decision to oust the Tatas from Singur, where the first Nano factory was to

DEVON TEMPLE COMMITTEE & DEVON be built, has meant that she has COMMUNITY INVITES YOU burnt her boats so far as the indus-

trial community is concerned.

Where her predecessor in the chief minister’s chair, Buddhadev Bhattacharjee, realized in the twilight of his tenure the folly of the Marxists in driving out the industrialists, Mamata began her stint by making the same mistake in Singur and is now paying the price for it.

But economic stagnation is not her only Achilles heel. Under her, the cadres of the ruling Trinamool Congress have begun to emulate the Marxist goons of the earlier years in full measure — terrorizing ordinary people and members of rival parties and extorting money from builders and entrepreneurs.

Hence, the coinage of the term, Ma-Mati-Mafia, by the chief minister’s critics.

The e-cabinet meeting was held to mark 100 days of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) in power in the state.

According to officials, the cabinet agenda was sent to the ministers in advance through e-mail. Naidu asked all ministers to come to the meet with i-pads.

Naidu, popular as high-tech chief minister, reviewed performance of his government during last 100 days after making a power-point presentation.

Jayalalithaa takes a dig at national parties IANS, CHENNAI

Similarly, in the case of Mullaperiyar Dam issue, the communist parties in Tamil Nadu will take one stance and their Kerala unit will take another. The parties central unit will remain silent.

She said her government was implementing various programs to protect people from rising prices.

Jagan challenges scaling down of security HYDERABAD: YSR Congress Party president Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy has challenged in court the scaling down of his security by the Andhra Pradesh government.

In a petition filed in the Hyderabad High Court, Jagan complained that the government scaled down the ‘Z’ category security which was given to him three years ago.

He said the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) government scaled down the

security despite the fact that he was Leader of Opposition and enjoys cabinet rank.

The YSR Congress leader said he faced threat to his life from Maoists and factionists.

Terming the move “unjust”, he alleged that the government scaled down his security over narrow political interests.

HYDERABAD: The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) has retained Medak Lok Sabha seat in Telangana with its candidate K. Prabhakar Reddy winning the byelections. On the other hand, the ruling Telugu Desam Party (TDP) in Andhra Pradesh has retained Nandigama assembly seat.

Prabhakar Reddy defeated his nearest rival V. Sunitha Lakshma Reddy of Congress party by over 366,000.

Jagga Reddy of Bharatiya Janata Party-Telugu Desam Party combine finished third.

The byelections held on September 13 was caused by the resignation of Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, who had won the prestigious seat in the general elections by a margin of 3.97 lakh votes.

In Andhra by-polls, TDP candidate T. Soumya defeated Babu Rao of Congress party by over 70,000 votes. Soumya is daughter of T. Prabhakar Rao, whose death caused the byelection. In the bypoll held 70 percent of 1.84 lakh votes had cast votes in the constituency located in Krishna district in coastal Andhra.

T

amil Nadu Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa on September 15 said the focus of national parties will be centered around Delhi and will not be on Tamil Nadu and more so on the Coimbatore Municipal Corporation.

She said India is akin to a big joint family and could be led by a single party. But the states are like small sub-families. Only the heads of those sub-families are interested in the family welfare and not the heads of joint family.

Campaigning for her party AIADMK’s candidate Ganapathy P Rajkumar for the mayoral election in Coimbatore around 500 km from here, Jayalalithaa said: “The BJP may rule India. But it certainly does not have any interest in upholding the rights of Tamilians.”

Citing the Cauvery river water dispute with Karnataka, Jay-

its visit to three states to study their state capitals. The cabinet is also likely to take decisions on welfare measures and for implementation of farm loans waiver scheme. Measuring first 100 days of performance of a Chief Minister of a State that has no capital, no infrastructure and a

yawning revenue deficit may look a bit odd by any yardstick.

Yet it has become an inescapable barometer to reflect and look at approval rating, from political leaders to CEOs, notwithstanding the challenges they face.

Troubled by “unscientific and politically motivated bifurcation of a prosperous State” and loss of a capital that was a cash cow, N. Chandrababu Naidu in his third stint as Chief Minister looks a shade fatigued as he faces the 100-day test, struggling to fulfil his long list of election promises and focuses on rebuilding a State from the scratch.

In his new avatar as a leader tilting towards populism, quite a transformation from being a poster boy of reforms, Naidu makes no bones of the challenges he is facing and shares them at every available public platform.

TRS, TDP pull off wins in by-polls

he Supreme Court may soon have to adjudicate over the Goa government’s questionable efforts to restart the tainted multi-billion rupee iron ore mining sector, which has been plagued by a `350 billion scam involving a nexus of politicians and bureaucrats.

A recent order of the Bombay High Court’s Panaji bench sanctioning renewal of 27 iron ore mining leases, which triggered a controversy, will be placed before the Supreme Court for scrutiny,

according to petitioner and green NGO Goa Foundation.

The Goa-based Foundation’s Claude Alvares said he was forced to approach the apex court because of the Goa government’s decision not to appeal against the high court order in the apex court.

“The high court’s directions appear to be at variance with the directions issued by the Supreme Court,” Alvares said.

Last month’s high court order came a few months after the April 2014 order of the Supreme Court which, while lifting the ban on mining (imposed in September 2013), rendered all mining leases in Goa invalid from 2007 and all mining carried out in these leases illegal.

“Since the Goa government will not do so or does not appear willing to do so, the Goa Foundation will not hesitate to take that action instead,” Alvares said.

Goa politicians gripe over new airport terminal MAYABHUSHAN NAGVENKAR, PANAJI

O

nce vaunted and an object for appropriation of cheap brownie points for Goa’s political parties while it was being constructed, Goa’s 10-monthyoung new airport terminal, built at a cost of Rs.345 crore ($56.5 million), is suddenly “nobody’s child”.

The still shiny new airport building at the Dabolim International Airport, Goa’s only aviation facility that functions from a military base, has now become a political hot potato for the opposition Congress and the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for being badly

planned, tardy, smelly and of defective construction standards with several loose ends and even “unsafe”.

Inaugurated last December, Congress legislator Mauvin Godinho claims the airport is shocking-

ly unplanned and disaster prone.

“It is shocking that they have built the parking bay for planes near fuel dumps. There are so many planes parked there during peak hours and they are in danger in case of an accident,” Godinho told IANS.

Obama may send ground troops to Iraq

US for better India-China relations

A more combative approach is needed to eliminate IS: US ARUN KUMAR, WASHINGTON

M

artin Dempsey, chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff said on September 16 that US ground troops could be called into battle against the Islamic State (IS) in Iraq and Syria if circumstances require.

So far, US President Barack Obama has deployed about 1,600 military advisors to Iraq, but has stressed that “boots are not on the ground” in a combat role.

However, Dempsey said Obama has ordered him to come back on a “case-by-case basis” if the use of ground forces need to be reconsidered. “My view at this point is that this coalition is the appropriate way forward. I believe that will prove true. But if it fails to be true, and if there are threats to the US then I, of course, would go back to the president and make a recommendation that may include the use of US military ground forces,” Dempsey said during a hearing of the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Dempsey said one circumstance that could require the use of

Paris meet pledges military aid to Iraq PARIS: Representatives of 29 countries, including the five member of the UN Security Council, agreed to provide Iraqi authorities with “any means necessary including military assistance” to help in cracking down on the Islamic State (IS) terrorist group, France’s foreign ministry said. However, Western and Arab officials did not elaborate on what would be the envisaged military support.

ground troops would be if Iraqi or Kurdish forces were poised to retake Mosul, which IS forces captured in June.

“It could very well be part of that particular mission to provide close combat advising or accompanying for that mission,” Dempsey added. The general’s remarks opened the door to increased US military involvement in Iraq at a time when liberals in Congress are increasingly anxious about President Obama’s request to train rebel forces in Syria.

Dempsey emphasized that military actions would be “part of a whole of government effort that works to disrupt IS financing, interdict the movement of foreign fighters across borders, and undermine the IS message.”

“Within a coalition of capable, willing regional and international partners, I believe we can destroy IS in Iraq, restore the Iraqi-Syrian border, and disrupt IS in Syria,” he said. “ISIL will ultimately be defeated when their cloak of religious legitimacy is stripped away and the populations on which they have imposed themselves reject them.”

WASHINGTON: Ahead of Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit to India, the US says it has a very broad relationship with India and wants New Delhi to have good relationships with all the countries in the region, including China.

“We’re all looking forward to welcoming Prime Minister (Narendra) Modi to Washington,” State Department spokesperson Marie Harf told foreign media on September 15 when asked how the US viewed Xi’s India visit ahead of Modi’s upcoming US trip.

Modi will have summit meetings with

President Barack Obama Sep 29 and 30 and would have “a number of meetings, I’m sure, with my colleagues at the State Department as well”, she said.

“Our relationship with India really is a very broad one where we talk about a whole range of topics,” Harf said when asked by a Chinese correspondent about US expectations about the bilateral meeting between Obama and Modi.

“And I think that we want India to have good relationships with all the countries in the region, including China,” she said.

Ukraine grants ‘special status’ to region KIEV: The Ukrainian Parliament on September 16 approved two bills offering major concessions to independence-seeking insurgents and more autonomy to eastern regions where unrest has been raging since mid-April.

The bill to grant amnesty to detained insurgents, who participated in the violent confrontation with government troops, was backed by 287 of 342 lawmakers present at the assembly, Xinhua reported.

The new law would apply only to those insurgents, who have not committed “serious crimes” such as murder or torture. The other bill, submitted to the parliament by Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, which offers a “special status” to regions in eastern Ukraine for

three years, was approved with 277 votes in favor. The “special status” of the regions increases the authority of local communities by transferring more economic, financial and administrative powers to the regional governments.

The new law provides for the holding of local elections in the region Dec 7 and enables local communities to take part in the appointment of heads of regional prosecutor offices and courts.

In addition, the law introduces a special economic system aimed at rehabilitating the region’s industry, transport and social infrastructure as well as creating new jobs and attracting investment and loans. The law also guarantees the right to use Russian and other regional languages in public and private life.

SRK to shoot for one film at a time MUMBAI: In his over two-decade career, Shah Rukh Khan has maintained his on-screen charisma, his craze and an average of two and a half films per year and he wants to keep it that way. The Bollywood Badshah says he has no intention of doing multiple projects at a time because he doesn’t want to miss out on enjoying the filmmaking process and indulging in other activities.

The last time fans saw him on the screen was when he came riding on Chennai Express. Running at notch eight, the action-romantic comedy made the quickest `2 billion, thus multiplying manifold the megastar’s stake in filmdom.

After over 14 months, he is returning with a completely different genre — heist drama Happy New Year. Scheduled for Diwali release, the big budget multi-starrer is high on technology.

Asked why such a long gap and pat came the reply: “I like making one film at a time.”

“I can’t do more than one film at a time... I am through with that. Happy New Year is a big film. It had 170 days of shooting,” Shah Rukh told IANS in an interview.

Without a pause, he pointed out that he never took up multiple projects in his career and, on an average, did two to three films in a year.

“I have never done that actually. In 25 years, I have done 55 full-length feature films. So, I have never been able to do more than two to two and a half films in a year even in the times when people used to 12 films,” he said, adding the rest were guest appearances.

“I would like to keep it that way. I enjoy doing one film. I like finishing it, taking some time off, spending time with kids and then get on to the next one,” said Shah Rukh who became active in showbiz in the late 1980s.

Hopping from one project to another is not his cup of tea.

Salman booked for hurting religious sentiments NAGPUR: A case was filed against Bollywood superstar Salman Khan in Maharashtra for allegedly hurting religious sentiments of the Muslim community, a police official said here on September 12.

He was booked on a complaint by Vidarbha unit chief of All Indian Qaumi Tanzeem Mohammed A. Ali for deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs.

In his complaint, Ali said Salman Khan’s NGO ‘Being Human’ had organized a fashion show in Mumbai sometime ago in which a model walked the ramp with the word ‘Allah’ written on her dress in Arabic.

“We have received a complaint against the actor and booked him... Further investigations are underway,” a police official said.

Ali also submitted video clips of the fashion show to substantiate his claim.

Loved working with my father: Arjun Kapoor

MUMBAI: Actor Arjun Kapoor enjoyed the experience of working i Tevar, co-produced by his father Boney and uncle Sanjay, as the didn’t impose any pressure on him.

“Tevar is about a simple boy and his love story. It’s emotiona and overwhelming. I loved working with my father and uncle.

None of them put any pressure on me and gave me my space to perform as an actor,” Arjun told IANS. Directed by Amit Sharma, Tevar also features Sonakshi Sinh in the female lead.

Meanwhile, Arjun is excited about his English language Bollywood entertainer Finding Fanny, which was a new experience for him.

He says when a Hindi actor does an English film, he tries to stress on the words to get the lines across. But director Homi Adajania want ed all actors to be as free in their dialogue delivery as possible.

‘I have a cleavage! You got a problem?’

MUMBAI: The usually calm and composed Deepika Padukone has come up in arms against a leading daily which had apparently published a rather demeaning piece of news about her dressing at an event.

Deepika Padukone had worn a low cut dress designed by Anamika Khanna for the trailer launch of Chennai Express last year. This dress had come under the daily’s scanner for the design. The daily, on September 14 morning, reframed and retweeted the photo-story. When Deepika read the tweet followed by a picture gallery of similar dressing faux-pas by other actresses, she lost her calm and gave the news portal a befitting reply in a series of tweets. The fans of the actress have also come out in her support. At the time of filing this article, that’s within 60 minutes of Deepika’s tweet, there were almost 1550 retweets. Deepika attended the music launch of Happy New Year next day and when she was asked about the controversy, she said: “I think I have said whatever I had to and everything else will be taken care of.”

On September 14, The Times of India tweeted: “OMG: Deepika Padukone’s cleavage show”, along with a link to the related story. The story and tweet has since been removed, but not before Padukone shared an angry response on Twitter. Meanwhile, Shah Rukh praised her and said: “What she said was wonderful... we don’t have the guts to do what she has done, but we believe in it and we support it.”

Katrina Kaif shoots for ‘Phantom’ MUMBAI: Actor Katrina Kaif is busy shooting for her upcoming film, Phantom. The film, costarring Saif Ali Khan and directed by Kabir Khan, focuses on the geopolitical consequences of the 26/11 attacks that shook the city in 2008. The director was shooting the exteriors of the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, which was one of the places attacked by terrorists.

The scene shows Katrina arriving at the scene of the crime. It is an important moment in the movie and the unit was anxious for obvious reasons. Due to the sensitivity of the location, procuring permissions was a time consuming process. And that is why Kabir applied for and got approval months in advance. To avoid star-gazers, the crew arrived on location at 5.30 am and began filming at the crack of dawn. By 8.30 a.m., major portions had been wrapped up without hiccups.

Another scene in the film, required three Pakistani artistes. But the ongoing political crisis in Islamabad has delayed the visa process and the trio will be able to join the team only later in the year. For now, their Indian counterparts, including Katrina, are shooting in Lahore, recreated at Filmistan Studio, Goregaon.

“The portions which are shown as Lahore in the film have been extensively shot in Malerkotla, Punjab, which boasts architecture similar to that of the Pakistani city. And for the patchwork, instead of going all the way to Punjab, a set of Lahore was created in Filmistan,” revealed the source.

Nobody would dare to mess with me: Bips

MUMBAI: Actress Bipasha Basu, who describes herself as “fiery and forthright” has shot down “blind stories” of an unsensory happening related to her on the set of Sajid Khan’s Humshakals, saying no one can “mess around” with her.

Recently, there was a buzz that Sajid had made an “indecent proposal” to Bipasha during the shooting of Humshakals— a movie she had stepped back from promoting prior to its release as she was unhappy with the outcome. But the actress says the rumor about any indecency is just that — a rumor.

Setting the record straight, Bipasha said: “”A lot of unsavory stories are going around about what happened during the shooting. I’ve been reading ‘blind’ stories about some terrible situations that happened during Humshakals.

“Let me set the record straight. These are completely false stories. I’m not the kind of girl anyone can mess around with. I’m fiery and forthright and I don’t take bulls**t from anyone.

ersatile actress Vidya Balan is looking forward to shoot Mohit Suri’s Hamari Adhuri Kahani. She says it would be her second intense love story after her debut film Parineeta.

The film’s shoot starts in October.

“I try and give every character I play a particular look. So this (Hamari...) is definitely towards that...we are preparing for it,” the 35-year-old said here at an event to raise funds for the underprivileged. “All I can say is that it is an intense love story and I haven’t done (such) a love story after Parineeta, and so I am looking forward to it,” she added.

“Mohit Suri is a director whose work I have always enjoyed immensely. (Mahesh) Bhatt saab is writing the script, so it’s all come together beautifully,” she said.

MUMBAI: Prior work commitments will keep actress Sonam Kapoor away from the promotions of her forthcoming film Khoobsurat in Pakistan, the home country of her film’s co-star Fawad Khan. She says she would love to visit the country sometime in future.

Despite her absence from the film’s promotions, Sonam plans to make her presence felt.

“I was going to Pakistan (earlier). But (now) I am recording a message and I am doing as much (interviews with) Pakistani media as I can to promote the film,” she said.

However, Sonam is very eager to visit Pakistan. “I really, really want to go. My forefathers are from Peshawar and my mom’s side of the family comes from Karachi. So there is so much of a connection...I am just a second generation Indian,” Sonam said.

‘Madamji’ script, cast in final stage MUMBAI: Actor Priyanka Chopra, whose latest biopic on Olympic medal winner boxer Mary Kom was a runaway hit says the team of her debut film production Madamji is currently giving finishing touches to its script and finalizing its cast. She is glad Madhur Bhandarkar is on board to direct the project as she trusts him immensely.

We are working on final stage of scripting and casting of Madamji.

The casting is yet to be decided. So, we won’t start before November,” Priyanka said.

Priyanka will herself star in Madamji, but as one understands, the rest of the cast is yet to be locked.

“I’m really grateful Madhur agreed to be my first director in my first production venture. We tried to work in some other films as well, but unfortunately that didn’t happen. I completely trust Madhur,” she said.

ow here’s the thing. “Finding Fanny” has a dead cat in a traveling car that the cat’s owner know to be dead and towards the end, a dead painterartist whom nobody cares whether he’s dead or not.

Between these two points of mortality shared by the script lies a huge unshared joke about life and shows it screws you up when you aren’t watching. Watching this weirdly wonderful ode to a longforgotten anthem of love, I felt like a person who receives a really costly gift which is of no use to him.

“Really? This is for me? Wow! But what do I do with it???”.....

You know that feeling of holding a precious parcel which you can’t tell the right-side-up from the wrong-side-down? That’s “Finding Fanny”.

appear utterly adrift, couldn’t care less whether we like them or not.

That’s what make them so deliciously appealing. They are a gallery of weirdos content to be perceived as such, as long as they are allowed to lead their lives the way they want. There’s the very engaging Dimple Kapadia playing a prosthetic-ridden, bum-happy motherin-law to the widowed Angie (Deepika Padukone).

Every character in “Finding Fanny” is supremely selfish, although some like the incandescent Angie(Deepika) and the surly Savio (Arjun Kapoor) pretend to care for what happens to others.

Angie and Savio will make up and make out before the film is through. “It will get better, right?”

Angiel asks Savio - hopefully about the sex. Does Naseer’s character finally find Fanny? Frankly it doesn’t really matter at the end. And I am not sure if that’s good or bad.

GCI’s campaign leads to better health coverage

C

BY A STAFF WRITER

HICAGO (IL) -- Get Covered Illinois (GCI) has released its annual report to share with the public the full extent of progress under Illinois’s historic effort to implement the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

“Get Covered Illinois’s Year One success is just the start of a long-term effort to expand the culture of health coverage in Illinois and improve the health of individuals and families,” said GCI executive director Jennifer Koehler.

“We look forward to building upon this year’s success in Year Two, and extending the coverage to additional residents who need it.”

The GCI recently completed a highly successful initial enrollment period in which, according to US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) figures, more than 622,000 Illinois residents have enrolled in health care as a result of the state’s enrollment efforts.

About 217,000 people enrolled in a plan through the Illinois Health Insurance

Marketplace, coupled with enrollment of approximately 405,000 people to date in Medicaid under the ACA. The report provides an overview of the GCI’s key successes, including its grassroots campaign, community partnerships and the advertising and media strategy used to reach residents statewide.

Some highlights of the GCI Year One Annual Report include: --The GCI website hosted more than 2.1 million unique visits from October 1 through March 31, with nearly half of these visits occurring in March due to increased traffic as the Year One deadline approached.

--In the GCI Year One, six insurance carriers offered 165 qualified health plans to

Illinois residents, including 120 individual plans and 45 small group plans.

--The GCI paid media campaign delivered nearly 1.7 billion impressions statewide; the $13 million in advertising spending was supplemented by $7.5 million in value-added exposure provided by media partners at no additional cost.

--With the end of the Year One sixmonth initial open enrollment period, the GCI’s statewide network of 250 grantee organizations and hundreds of trained Navigators remains in place and is now focused on targeted outreach to help those who gained coverage to stay covered and use their benefits to stay healthy.

Navigators also are able to provide enrollment assistance to those who have a Qualifying Life Event (marriage, divorce, adoption, childbirth, job loss, etc.) or Medicaid, which has no fixed enrollment period.

The next open enrollment period for the GCI Marketplace will begin on November 15 and run through February 15, 2015.

Aga Khan Museum opens in Toronto

BY A STAFF WRITER

ORONTO -- Stephen Harper, Prime Minister of Canada, and His Highness the Aga Khan formally opened the Ismaili Centre and the Aga Khan Museum here on September 12.

The twin projects, which are initiatives of the Aga Khan, the 49th hereditary Imam of the Shia Ismaili Muslims and founder and chairman of the Aga Khan Development Network, are intended to foster knowledge and understanding both within Muslim societies and between these societies and other cultures.

These spaces “will be filled with sounds

of enrichment, dialogue and warm human rapport, as Ismailis and non-Ismailis share their lives in a healthy gregarious spirit,” remarked the Aga Khan during the ceremony.

He saluted all the leaders, volunteers and staff who have made possible the completion of these new institutions and also thanked the Prime Minister and many members of government at the federal, provincial and municipal levels.

Harper commented that the site would be “a source of inspiration, spiritual renewal and cultural awareness,” not only for Torontonians, but for all visitors. The Prime Minister paid a

special tribute to the Aga Khan’s vision of Islam, which “stresses its social traditions of peace, tolerance and pluralism.”

“The decision to establish this significant initiative in Canada reflects the deep and longstanding partnership between the Imamat and Canada,” he said.

Following the ceremony, Harper and the Aga Khan as well as Prince Amyn Aga Khan,

was evident all around. With thousands of devotees in attendance, the festival amply supported by Township of Edison, the police, fire and other departments, was an amazing event.

Zee TV brought in the two winners of their fantastic show “Sa Re Ga Ma Pa” in 2012, Jasraj Joshi as well as Arshpreet Kaur, to perform live for two hours each, on August 30 and 31. Along with them, there were a number of performances from local talents to keep the audience absorbed on a separate entertainment stage.

It was a moment frozen in time as thousands bade adieu to the revered Lord Ganesh until next year.

Indiana State varsity on alert after blog message

BY A STAFF WRITER

T

ERRE HAUTE (IN) -- Indiana State University (ISU) issued a crime alert on September 18 morning regarding a message

on a blog.

Access to university residence halls is being restricted to ‘students only’ as a result. According to the ISU police department, at 11:30 p.m. a student was on the ISU blog of the “Yik Yak” social media app.

The student saw an anonymous message that read “I wonder if this school shooting is going to go as planned tomorrow.” The student replied to the message saying “That’s not funny, man. I should report this!”

Within 90 seconds the post was removed. The police say it is possible that this message was a hoax, and there has been no corroborating information received to support this. The ISU police department routinely shares any information that may be a threat to the campus community.

vice-chair of the museum’s board of directors, and the Shelly Glover, Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages, officiated over the opening ceremony of the Aga Khan Museum.

The Ismaili Centre and the Aga Khan Museum are situated within the 6.8-hectare landscaped park designed by Vladimir Djurovic of Lebanon. This beautiful new green space for the public, which will be known as the Aga Khan Park, is expected to open next year.

ONG ISLAND (NY) -- Dr. Raj Shah, director at Koehler Instrument Company in Long island, NY, was last month conferred with the Award of Excellence by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) for the third time.

ASTM International, formerly known as ASTM, is a globally recognized specialist in the development and delivery of international voluntary consensus standards.

Some 12,000 ASTM standards are used around the world to improve product quality, enhance safety, facilitate market access and trade, and build consumer confidence. In its membership of over 32,000-plus members , the ASTM has never conferred the Award of Excellence to the same individual three times in the last decade--a rare honor.

His latest award of excellence is from the Environmental considerate Lubricants committee and was presented by ASTM chairman Randy Jennings to Dr. Shah in Indianapolis at this latest ASTM meeting.

Committee D02 on Petroleum Products, Liquid Fuels, and Lubricants, the group that awarded Dr. Shah, has been active for over the past 60-plus years.

It’s scope is the promotion of knowledge and the promulgation of standard specifications, classifications, test methods, practices, guides, and terminology for all petroleum products.

Dr. Shah is a distinguished alumni from the Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai and Penn State University, PA.

EW YORK: Magic Bus and Ireo joined forces on September 17 to introduce prominent members of New York society to Magic Bus, a very large and professional non-government organization in India focused on behavioral change and leadership development for children and youth living in the most marginalized communities in India.

Among those in attendance was Matthew Spacie, founder and executive chairman of Magic Bus, Anurag Bhargava, chairman of Ireo, Rahul Brahmbhatt, executive director of Magic Bus US, and recent graduate of the Magic Bus program, Parvati Pujari.

Spacie is a young and innovative entrepreneur who previously headed Cox & Kings in India and co-founded Cleartrip.com.

He founded Magic Bus with the goal of taking children out of poverty and giving them a purpose in life through sports.

“I can tell you how to get a girl of 14 into school,” says Spacie, “but I’m not going to build that school. The whole premise of Magic Bus is to leverage what’s already there. Our program costs Rs.1,200 ($25 USD) per child per year.

We don’t build assets because they should already be there by law. Getting people out of poverty isn’t easy.”

Over the past 15 years, Magic Bus has used

its unique “sport for development” approach to empower children and youth in making effective life choices in the areas of education, livelihood and leadership, health, and gender equality.

Magic Bus’ curriculum on sport for development has won national and international recognition, including the 2014 Laureus Sport for Good Award, recognizing the world’s most impactful sport for development program, and the 2014 National Sports Promotion Award from the President of India.

Magic Bus takes a holistic approach towards providing an end-to-end solution for underprivileged children and youth, working

with them from age 7 all the way through to adulthood.

Independent impact evaluations provide strong external validation of Magic Bus’ impact: across the program, 98% of adolescent girls are in school and 80% of all Magic Bus graduates enroll in vocational training or go on to further education. The cost of the program is $25 per child per year.

Parvati Pujari, 24, a graduate of the Magic Bus program, travelled from India to New York to speak to guests about her life changing experience, which began when she was nine years old. She grew up in a Mumbai slum area and saw her eldest sister get married at the age of 12.

JVB’s blood donation drive sets new world record

BY A STAFF WRITER

D

harma is formless. It acquires its form through the various methods of worship. Dharma is soul while the method of worship is body.”

-Acharya Tulsi This beautiful quote written by Acharya Tulsi truly depicts using body as a means of worship to do Dharma. Blood is that fragile blossoming tree all carry within them, which makes blood donation the highest service one can render to humanity.

On Acharya Tulsi’s birth centennial celebrations, JVB Preksha Meditation center on September 6 embarked on a ‘Mega Blood Donation Drive and Bone Marrow Registry’in cooperation with Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center from 10 am to 4 pm that saw many community members line up for the noble cause.

This campaign took place simultaneously in 700 camps in 300 cities worldwide. Total units collected worldwide were 100,000+, which was a new Guinness Book of World Record for maximum donation by an organization on a single day.

The campaign envisioned JVB’s pioneering

J

role in serving the local community and in meeting its needs. The entire effort was meant to encourage the Houston Community to meet their responsibilities as good citizens and to be active participants in the activities, especially those of humanitarian and social nature.

The program received immense support from local community what with over 65 people coming forward to donate. While 44 people were able to successfully donate blood, 20 registered for the bone marrow drive. Lunch,

fruits and juice were served for the entire time.

The JVB Preksha Meditation Center conducts regular Preksha meditation sessions which is the practice of purifying emotions and consciousness, and realizing one’s own self.

Mediation augurs attitudinal change, behavioral modification and integrated development of one’s personality. Started in 1970, Preksha Meditation is the result of the untiring efforts of Ganadhipati Tulsi and Acharya Mahapragya.

BY A STAFF WRITER

ERSEY CITY (NJ) -- Two Jersey City men and one from Newark whose online business of selling fake driver’s licenses was operated with two simple rules--no refunds, no snitching--came to a screeching halt when the three were arrested on September 9.

Ricardo Rosario, 32, and Abraham Corcino, 33, both of Jersey City, and Alexis Scott Carthens, 37, of Newark, have been charged by complaint with conspiracy to commit fraud and related activity in connection with authentication features.

All three men, who face 15 years in prison and hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines, later made their initial court appearances before US Magistrate StevenMannion in federal court in Newark.

Authorities said that from October 2012 through last month, Rosario, Corcino and Carthens sold fake driver’s licenses for $150 each on the websites fakeidstore.co and fakedlstore.com. Between Dec. 30 and June 23, they sold 1,514 fake licenses for $232,660.

The fakeidstore.co website appears to still be active, while the other one appears to have been shut down. Samples of fake licenses include a photo of President Obama.

The crime of selling fake licenses spawned more criminal activity, authorities said. A number of the fake licenses were used in connection with cash out schemes, where stolen credit card information was used to steal cash from victims’ accounts.

The websites sold fake driver’s licenses for New Jersey, Florida, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin, and boasted that the licenses had scannable barcodes and real holographic overlays.

Authorities said that Rosario created and ran the website while Corcino and Carthens allegedly assisted Rosario by creating and mailing the fake driver’s licenses. Corcino also maintained an Instagram website, which was used to promote the website.

Ex-BCCI chief hits out

at Srinivasan

Shashank Manohar accuses former Indian cricket board chief of taking advantage of new laws Serbian team celebrate after defeating India in the Davis Cup world group play-off in Bangalore on September 15. (Photo: IANS)

ABHISHEK ROY, NEW DELHI

F

ormer board president Shashank Manohar on September 13 ruled out contesting the impending elections against N. Srinivasan and accused his successor of taking advantage of the amendment of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) constitution for seeking a third term in office.

Manohar said the board’s constitution was amended in 2012 to remove the cap on the number of terms in office of key office-bearers.

He added that all big guns supported it in the hope that they, too, could stage a comeback or someone like senior BJP politician and Union Minister Arun Jaitley, a former BCCI vice-president and exDelhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) chief, need not wait for his turn for over a decade.

Manohar, 56, also rubbished rumors that he has joined hands with suspended Indian Premier League (IPL) chairman Lalit Modi in the campaign against Srinivasan and would also oppose his re-entry into BCCI. “When the constitution was amended in 2012 it was done specifically to facilitate Mr. Arun

Davis Cup: India go down to Serbia

Srinivasan was recently elected as the chairman of International Cricket Council.

Manohar rubbishes rumors that he has joined hands with suspended Indian Premier League (IPL) chairman Lalit Modi Jaitley (former BCCI vice-president) to become the BCCI president from East Zone. That time we had specifically done for Mr. Jaitley since he was the unanimous choice of the members. But now Srinivasan has used it to his own advantage,” Manohar told IANS

17th Asian Games torch arrives in Incheon INCHEON: The torch that will be used to light the main cauldron at the opening ceremony of the 2014 Asian Games arrived here on September 17.

After a 36-day torch relay throughout South Korea, the flame will travel around Incheon’s downtown and arrive at the main stadium in Incheon for the Friday’s opening ceremony, reports Xinhua.

The torch was first lit Aug 9 in New Delhi at the National Stadium, the first hosts of Asian Games in 1951, to show the torch’s history and legitimacy.

It was then combined with another flame that was set alight from Manisan, Ganghwa-do. It has travelled through 70 cities and towns across the host country and is about to complete its long journey. The torch, embodying the Asian continent’s hope for peace and harmony, was designed after a crane, the official bird of the hosting city of

Incheon. All 45 member NOCs of the Olympic Council of Asia will participate in the 16-day event, vying for 439 gold medals in 36 sports.

The torch relay started on August 9 with a colorful ceremony in Delhi.

The Incheon Asian Games organising committee flew the flame in a specially designed container to Weihei in China, which had hosted the 2010 Asian Games in the city of Guangzhou.

From Weihei it was ferried across to Incheon. In parallel, another torch was lit at Mount Mani at Ganghwa Island, off Incheon’s coast.

It was the first time that the torch relay started from the National Stadium. In the past the torch was generally lit at the host country but from now on the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) will be continuing with this tradition for all the Asian Games.

from Nagpur.

In 2012, the constitution was amended to facilitate an incumbent from a different zone to become the president if his name was proposed and seconded by the zone, whose turn it is to elect the Board president.

BANGALORE: A sleepless night following rain-induced suspension of play and overnight change of schedules seemed to have done little to dampen Filip Krajinovic who won the decisive fifth rubber to help Serbia beat India 32 in their Davis Cup World Group playoff here on September 15 afternoon.

The match was halted on September 14 following rains with Krajinovic leading 6-3, 4-4.

With the match scheduled to resume next day, it forced cancellation of air tickets and attendant alterations in the plans of teams and players besides support staff and match officials.

“I couldn’t sleep last night as I kept replaying the points. The pressure was very much there and it wasn’t easy, but my plan was to win the second set rather than it being 1-1. So, I did well to break him first thing today,” said the 22-year old Krajinovic after his 6-3, 64, 6-4, win against Yuki Bhambri in the

second reverse singles that helped Serbia win the tie 3-2.

“For the first time, I was playing a major match and I am proud that I won and also helped the team win the tie.

“I knew, it will be easier for me to break him early today, because if Yuki had won the second set, it would have been 1-1, and the match could have gone the other way. I started aggressive today and broke him in the very first game (the ninth of the set).

“It was tough to come out and play today. Different time, different environment and you never know what will happen,” said Krajinovic referring to the noon start and the near-empty stadium in which the match was played on September 15.

The Serb, ranked 107, dwelt on his off-court relationship with Bhambri, saying they have known each other since their junior days and training together at the Nick Bollitteri academy in Florida, U.S.

USA win Basketball World Cup IANS, MADRID

T

he USA retained their title as world basketball champions on September 14 with a crushing 129-92 win over Serbia in the final held in Madrid’s Palacio de Deportes, Xinhua reported.

The Americans may have ended eight points short of the world record score of 137 in the 1994 World Championship final and the Serbs can also be proud of a display which could possibly have given them the title against any other team in the world, but nobody can question the merit of the win.

Many have said this American side is not as good as other ‘Dream Teams’ of recent years and the USA came to Spain missing some star names such as Kevin Durant, but the fact is they have rarely looked in any trouble en-route to their title, winning all nine of the games they have played over the past fortnight and with almost insulting margins of victory in the knockout stages.

USA players lift the trophy after winning the World Cup. (Photo: IANS)

Before the final, the Americans had beaten Mexico 86-63 in the last 16, Slovenia 119-76 in the quarter finals and Lithuania 96-68 in the last four and some of those wins would have been bigger had they not been saving their strength for what lay ahead.

They held nothing back against the Serbs, however, although it must also be said that in no moment,

even with the game in the bag did U.S. team show anything less than the utmost respect to their rivals.

It’s hard to highlight one player among the Americans’ performance, but point guard Kyrie Irving’ s 26 points included six three point throws from six attempts to be named MVP of the final, while James Harding’ s 25 points were also decisive.

I

f you cannot resist overeating despite the obvious health risks, you may well be suffering from an eating addiction which, as a study shows, is a behavioral disorder and could be categorized alongside conditions such as gambling.

The psychological compulsion to eat is driven by the positive feelings that the brain associates with eating, but it is not as bad as drug addiction.

“The brain does not respond to nutrients in the same way as it does to addictive drugs such as heroin or cocaine,” the researchers said.

People can become addicted to eating for its own sake, not to consume specific foods such as those high in sugar or fat.

“So the focus on tackling the problem of obesity should be moved from food itself and towards the individual’s relation-

ing,” the researchers said.

“More avenues for treatment may open up if we think about this condition as a behavioral addiction rather than a substance-based addiction,” said John Menzies from the University of Edinburgh

For the study, the researchers examined the scientific evidence for food addiction as a substancebased addiction.

“There has been a major debate over whether sugar is addictive,” said professor Suzanne Dickson from the University of Gothen-

“There is currently very little evidence to support the idea that any ingredient, food item, additive or combination of ingredients has addictive properties,” Dickson added.

The study appeared in Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews.

Positive message Start early to curb violent children A taste of Italy up in Shimla hills to stop smoking IANS, NEW YORK

NEW YORK: To dissuade smokers in a better way, the message on cigarette packets should be changed from “Warning: cigarettes cause cancer” to “Warning: Quitting smoking reduces the risk of cancer”, researchers say.

According to them, “gain-framed” messages — those that stressed the benefits to quitting, such as “quitting smoking reduces the risk of death due to tobacco” — were more effective for smokers who thought they could quit when they wanted to.

On the other hand, “loss-framed”

f you have a kid that throws tantrums all the time, identify if he/she has aggressive tendencies. The next step is to begin early intervention to stop them from turning into violent criminals or psychologically-troubled adults.

“We can prevent serious violence and psycho-pathology among the group of children who are at the highest risk,” said Kenneth Dodge from the Duke University.

Beginning in 1991, researchers screened nearly 10,000 five-year-old children for aggressive behavior problems, identifying those who were at highest risk of growing up to become violent adults.

Nearly 900 children were deemed high risk.

App to track what makes you truly happy messages — the ones that emphasised the negative outcomes from smoking such as “smoking can kill you” — were more effective for smokers who believed quitting would be hard, they found. Most of the warnings used now on tobacco packages worldwide are “loss-framed” messages which may not be sufficiently convincing to many smokers.

“The study shows that leveraging both gain- and loss-framed messaging may prompt more smokers to quit,” said Darren Mays, a scientist from from Georgetown University.

he Himachal Pradesh capital is now offering a platter of authentic taste of Italy — an Italian thin crust, hand-rolled wood-fired pizzas laced with an assortment of organic herbs grown in its kitchen garden.

The pizza will also have Italian tomatoes or pomodoros imported from Italy. Even the cheese is being imported from Italy.

“We are different from others as our thin crust pizza base is one of its kind as it is smoked in the mango wood oven. Others have electrical ovens which don’t give it

a smoky flavor,” Meet Singh Mallorca, The Oberoi Group’s Clarkes Hotel’s kitchen executive, told IANS. “Even its base is hand rolled and for health conscious guests we offer organic whole-wheat pizzas too,” he said.

“We use only the finest ingredients, besides traditional recipe and methods, to give typical Italian flavor,” Clarkes’ general manager D.P. Bhatia told IANS. He said Clarkes has also introduced a new menu which includes Chinese, Mexican, Italian and homemade pastas, besides traditional Himachali cuisines.

Daily meditation may reduce migraine pain IANS, NEW YORK

The disease has been linked to dysfunction of the amygdala, a brain structure involved in processing emotions IANS, WASHINGTON

I

n a ray of hope for people suffering from autism, researchers have discovered neuron populations in a region of the mouse brain that controls whether the animal engages in social behavior or asocial repetitive self-grooming behavior.

Autism has also been linked to dysfunction of the amygdala, a brain structure involved in processing emotions. Humans with autism often show a reduced frequency of social interactions and an increased tendency to engage in repetitive solitary behavior.

Lead researcher David J. Anderson, a Biology professor at the California Institute of Technology and his colleagues discovered two intermingled but distinct pop-

In autism, there is a decrease in social interactions and there is often an increase in repetitive, sometimes asocial or self-oriented behavior — a phenomenon known as perseveration.

“By stimulating a particular set of neurons, we are both inhibiting social interactions and promoting these persistent behaviors,” Anderson said.

F

or those suffering from migraine attacks, daily meditation might be a good idea for instant relief.

During a small study, researchers assessed the safety, feasibility and effects of a standardized meditation and yoga intervention called mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) in adults with migraines.

Nineteen adults were assigned to two groups with 10 receiving the MBSR intervention and nine receiving standard medical care.

The participants attend-

ed eight weekly classes to learn MBSR techniques and were instructed to practice 45 minutes on their own at least five additional days per week.

“We found that MBSR participants had trends of fewer migraines that were less severe,” said Rebecca Erwin Wells, an assistant professor of neurology at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Centre in North Carolina. Secondary effects included headaches that were shorter in duration and less disabling.

Participants had increases in mindfulness and self-efficacy —- a sense of personal control over migraine pain.

“In addition, there were no adverse events and excellent adherence,” Wells said.

Eat chikoo to fight cancer KOLKATA: The sweet and succulent chikoo or Sapota fruit, a popular ingredient for desserts, could well be the answer to halt cancer from spreading, according to a study by Indian scientists.

Researchers have now shown methanolic (alcoholic) extracts of the whole fruit possess certain active phytochemicals (plant-derived compounds) that can trigger a sequence of orchestrated events in tumor cells leading to their death (a process called apoptosis).

“Our results indicate that inclusion of Sapota fruit in our daily diet may protect from genesis

and progression of cancer,” Sathees C. Raghavan, associate professor at the department of Biochemistry, IISc, told IANS in an email interaction.

The collaborative study was conducted by scientists at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore, and the Institute of Bioinformatics and Applied Biotechnology, Bangalore.

It was published in August in Nature Publishing Group’s journal Scientific Reports.

One million new cancer cases are reported in India every year and the figure is set to double in 20 years.

Your week ahead...

Aries Distractions abound! But, you also need to focus. What to do? Monday’s quarter moon in Gemini helps you find a new answer to productivity: partnership. Make a list of all those outstanding tasks on your to-do list.

Taurus Luxe-loving Taurus, you’re happy to “make it rain” when you have a little extra cash in your pocket. This week, opt for a light sprinkle instead of a full-on downpour. Monday brings some checks and balances to your spending plan.

Gemini To know you is to love you, Gemini — well, on most days, at least. But you also have your shadow side, the “twin” who comes peeking out when you’ve pushed yourself to the point of exhaustion.

Cancer It’s so hard to say goodbye to…well, everything if you’re a sentimental Cancer. But this week, you will get some support from the stars with releasing anything that no longer serves you.

Leo All hands on deck? Not if those mitts are attached to a slacker, lie about, or shortcut-taking hustler. Monday’s quarter moon in Gemini and your collaborative eleventh house sharpens your discernment.

Virgo Ambitious Virgo, the ceiling can’t hold you when you set your sights on a lofty goal. Monday’s balancing quarter moon in your career zone reminds you that “bigger,” isn’t always better.

(Sept 18-24) Libra You’re probably gunning your engines impatiently. You’ve got places to go! People to see! Monday’s balancing quarter moon in Gemini and your worldly ninth house helps you shift into park and take a minute to look at the map.

Scorpio Mysterious Scorpio your enigmatic allure is legendary. But, if you’re too hard to read, people might just stop trying with you. With Monday’s quarter moon in Gemini and your intimate house, strike balance between enchanting and esoteric.

Sagittarius Check the flow of give and take in your relationships.

Monday’s quarter moon in Gemini and your partnership house reveals lopsided dynamics. With some people, you may be giving more than is truly fair.

Capricorn Your staying power is the stuff success stories are made of.The trouble is, you can get stuck in a groove when you really should move on. Monday’s quarter moon in Capricorn could reveal where that martyr mode is operating in your life.

Aquarius If life has become a little ho-hum, you’ll happily spice it up.

Maybe it’s time to host one of your legendary parties or plan a weekend getaway to a lively metropolis where you can shop and museum-hop ‘til dusk and dance ‘til dawn.

Pisces You do best when surrounded by comfort, so make sure your workspaces have plenty such touches. Have you swung to the opposite extreme and overdone your decor a bit? Quarter moons are all about balance.
