Why All the Fuss (About the New Secretary of Education)
2008-12-15 02:38:00 As the last article that we posted around the selection of the new secretary of education, Barack Obama's choice in a chief of America's educational system will be hotly scrutinized. Obama is playing his true intentions close to the vest largely to see how the media may play out the possible choices.You can probably rule out all of the front runners, including Linda Darling-Hammond, the Stanford University Professor, Arne Duncan, the City of Chicago's school chief, and Joel I. Klein, who is the Chancellor of New York City public schools. Why would these folks not be considered in the running for this much contested role? Since Barack Obama does not like being second guessed or figured out when it comes to education, he and his team of rivals will pick a relative unknown for the seat. Picking an unknown for the Secretary of Education would indicate that President-elect Obama wants to break away from the expectations that come with this crucial hire. While Senator Ted Kennedy ...
Caroline Spelman - A fuss about nothing?
2008-06-07 20:05:00 You can tell that it's been a quiet news week when the media go into a frenzy over a Tory MPs expenses from ten years ago. Caroline Spelman has been accused of paying her nanny, Tina Haynes, from her expenses for the period 1997-98. Sounds bad doesn't it? But, how does this sound: Caroline Spelman had a live in nanny at the time who was paid to carryout secretarial work for Caroline while the kids were at school. The nanny was paid six hours a day five days a week.There was a question over how much secretarial work Tina actually did for her publicly funded wages. This came about after Tina told BBC's Newsnight that she only posted letters and "took the odd phone call" and passed on messages "once or twice a week". I think it is entirely possible that Tina modestly played down her roll. After all, Caroline was using her home as her constituency office at the time, and it is highly unlikely that the office received only one or two phone calls a week.To clear the matter up, Tina iss...

More Needless Fuss Over Celebrities Smoking On Screen
2008-05-18 20:56:00 After Amitabh Bachchan, NOTE-India (National Organization For Tobaco Erradication) & the health Minister Anbumani Ramdoss are to now sue Shahrukh Khan over smoking in public. Well, SRK forgot that since he is such a big celebrity, he has to devote his entire life to setting good examples for the public. During the match between his Knights and the Mumbai Indians in which his knights were R.A.P.E.D, he [SRK] was snapped chain smoking cigarettes openly as his Multi Million $ cricketing team got out for a meagre 67 runs. Now NOTE is crying foul once again over this. Their argument: SRK should instead have behaved like a true sportsman by trying to raise the morale of his team, instead he himself got bogged down himself and smoked in full public view.Personally, I feel that stars like Shahrukh khan are humans themselves and have their own private lives in which they can do what they like, they did not come on this planet with a single purpose of living for the public. Last time, NOT...

There was nothing else on News channels other than the face of the dhoti clad man , who with just a suitcase was able to make the entire nation speak about him. ( which even SRK can't manage). & to add to that .. There are dicussions on his budget (before & after).. Good budget ,Bad budget , Rate the Budget ,axe the tax campaign ( the most absurd programme which claims that the FM slashed tax rates coz they recommended it.) , if i were FM , aam aadmi , farmers budget , election budget etc etc.. ( too tiring & irritating !!)The most irritating part of those discussions are the fact that they talk about the issues which they dont have any personal relevance too.. for eg:- There was the MD of a software company speaking highly about farmer loans waiver.. My advice to them.. Dont speak ! & if u r given a chance by some TV channel , speak relevant. If someone says that "The day the Union Budget is presented is considered by many observers to be ...

Why all the Fuss Over OOXML?
2008-02-05 07:16:00 Subtitle: Huh? OOXML is a Microsoft proposed standard for office documents. Microsoft over the last 2 years have been campaigning very hard for this piece of specification. The rub is, many feel it is inferior to other proposals — Microsoft fired the latest salvo in the increasingly antagonistic document standards debate last week when the company accused IBM of orchestrating efforts to block ISO fast-track approval of Office Open XML (OOXML), a document format devised by Microsoft for its office software suite. IBM isn’t taking the accusations sitting down, however, telling Ars that Microsoft is leading a fight against truly open standards. Related Stories * Open standards legislation shot down in five states * OOXML gains ground even as US remains apathetic on new document formats As governments around the world begin to establish IT procurement policies that favor open standards, the stakes in the document format dispute are rising.

The Killers :: Hot Fuss
2007-12-29 01:12:00 El 7 de junio de 2004, junto a la disquera Lizard King Records grabaron en Reino Unido su primer album "Hot Fuss". El 15 de junio entrante lo hicieron en los Estados Unidos bajo el sello Island Records. A fines del año lanzaron también copias en Francia y Japón."Somebody Told Me", su primer single, alcanzó los primeros lugares en los ránkings británicos. Su siguiente tema, "Mr. Brightside", entró inmediatamente en los Top 10 del Reino Unido, al igual que "All These Things That I've Done". En el relanzamiernto de "Somebody Told Me", obtuvieron el tercer puesto en los ránkings. La gran aceptación de The Killers en Gran Bretaña se debe a la importante influencia de música de ese paÃs de la década de los 80s, particularmente new wave; es más, Brandon Flowers canta, ocasionalmente, con acento británico.Tracklist:1.

First face transplant worth the fuss

Isabelle Dinoire, then 38, had her nose, cheeks, mouth, lips and chin replaced by donor tissue on November 27, 2005, after they were torn off by her own dog six months earlier. The doctors, led by Jean-Michel Dubernard of Lyon University in France, report in Thursday's edition of the New England Journal of Medicine that Dinoire recovered slowly and steadily, overcoming two episodes of rejection.

A baby's fuss
2007-11-04 18:34:00 There is something in a baby's soft fuss. Not the inconsolable cries, but the gentle fusses...the ones I know will stop the moment I pick her up. In fact, I am often rewarded with one of her famous, full-body smiles while a tear yet stains her cheek.I am often inspired by the simplicity of a baby's view of the world. They are acutely aware of their needs. And who satisfies those needs.As we get older, we add to that such a lengthy list of wants, we begin to confuse them with needs. We set ourselves up for a life of frustration because we pursue these desires with all our energy and forget to seek rest in Him who supplies all things.
