Desmond Tutu e Jimmy Carter, premi Nobel per la Pace, contro Israele stato
2008-06-01 02:36:00 Il premio Nobel per la Pace Desmond Tutu, eroe per la sua lotta non violenta contro il regime dell’apartheid in Sudafrica, ha pianto davanti a Gaza in rovina. Ha pianto nel constatare di persona i patimenti inflitti a una popolazione allo stremo. Recentemente, un altro premio Nobel per la pace, l’ex presidente americano Jimmy Carter così ha definito l’assedio israeliano imposto alla Striscia di Gaza: “uno dei più gravi crimini attuali contro i diritti dell’uomo” Leggi l'articolo di Jimmy Carter Oltre a questo, Carter ha ricordato al mondo che Israele zitta zitta possiede un arsenale di 150 testate nucleari. Altro che le pistole ad acqua di Ahmadinejad. Alla fine del video sopraesposto Tutu saggiamente dichiara che «i conflitti si risolvono trattando con i nemici, non con gli amici», quindi invita Israele a negoziare con Hamas. Una intervista che Tut...

Muslim Nobel Prize Winner Ahmed Hassan Zewail
2008-05-05 10:46:00 Two years ago I noted that hundreds of blogs and websites mistakenly offer up the statistic that there are 10 or 11 Muslim Nobel Prize Laureates. Excluding the Nobel Peace Prize which does not reward intellectual achievement (after all, Yasser Arafat got one) I wrote that there were only three Muslims (out of 1.5 billion) who have won Nobel Prizes. Two in Science (Abdus Salam, and Ahmed Zewail) and one in Literature (Naguib Mahfouz). Seven months after I wrote that article I should have updated the total to 4. So please add Turkish novelist Orhan Pamuk, who won the 2006 Nobel Prize in Literature. Pamuk, it should be mentioned, is hardly a Muslim having been brought up in a secular, westernized family. He is what I call a MINO, a Muslim in Name only. Another MINO is Ahmed Zewail, a most busy scientist to whom many Muslim websites like to proudly point as an example that a Muslim can indeed achieve scientific success. However, Zewail himself has written that one of the barrier...

Advani deserves Nobel!
2008-04-01 16:21:00 Leader of the Opposition L K Advani deserves to be commended not just for writing one of the longest autobiographies ever. After dashing off 986 pages in just eight months, the 80-year-old Advani still had enough stamina left to break the ice between him and Sonia/Manmohan, neither of whom turned up for the release of the book on March 19. The BJP leader celebrated Holi by calling on the UPA chairman and the PM to present them with autographed copies of My Country, My Life. Not that there are flattering references to Sonia in the book, which dwells on her foreign origin. Manmohan had been earlier described by Advani as the weakest PM India has seen. But, then, any author worth his salt will tell you writing is all about telling it like it is! And Indian political commentators will add that Advani’s attempt to mend fences with Sonia/Manmohan deserves a Nobel, even it is for peace and not literature! That My Country, My life was also used to improve intraparty ties is i...

NOONGALLAS SCIENTIST WINS NOBEL PRIZE
2008-03-24 00:25:00 SCIENCE NEWSBy Science Correspondent Jan CarewRenowned Noongallas scientist, Professor Duke Ellington Trewavas, has been awarded the Nobel Prize for Philosophical Physics for his pioneering work on the daftness of brushes. Professor Trewavas, who holds the Chair of Experimental Physics and Natural Philosophy at University College, Relubbus, is credited with finally resolving the age-old question of whether two brushes are dafter than one brush.The classic view was expounded by Aristotle in 348 B.C., when he argued that, since a single brush was infinitely daft, the combined daftness of two or more brushes could not exceed that of one alone.This view remained unchallenged for over two millenia until, in the eighteenth century, David Hume proposed the idea of a rocket ship accelerating for ever through space. Over trillions of years (the concept of "light years" was then unknown), as the ship progresses deeper and deeper into space, gradually picking up speed all the while, it approac...

Gemma Atkinson Boobs are worthy for a Nobel Prize!
2007-12-15 00:11:00 Celebrity News: Gemma Atkinson got cleavage at the Ultimo store opening in Debenharns! Why on Earth would anyone give the Nobel Prize to Gemma Atkinson?

Gemma Atkinson however has a number of qualities witch you don’t get to see everywhere! She’s just so damn perfect! You can’t find anything bad at that super body of hers – face, legs, boobs you name it! Okay so that’s not a very plausible reason, as there are millions of super hot looking babes out there! Yeah but, how many of them are willing to share their goodies with us, for free I mean?

Maybe the Nobel Prize is too much for her, but at least the Hottest Boobs of the Year award should definitely b...

Racist Nobel Laureate Sports African Genes
2007-12-12 15:33:00 Here's the definition of irony- James Watson, co-discoverer of DNA and Nobel laureate, whose recent comments that black Africans aren't as smart as white people proved his racist nature, very likely had an African great-grandparent. From the NY Times; A new analysis of Dr. Watson?s genome shows that he has 16 times the number of genes considered to be of African origin than the average white European does ? about the same amount of African DNA that would show up if one great-grandparent were African, said Kari Stefansson, the chief executive of deCODE Genetics of Iceland, which did the analysis.?This came up as a bit of a surprise,? Dr. Stefansson said in an interview, ?especially as a sequel to his utterly inappropriate comments about Africans.?After the news of Dr. Watson?s genetic ancestry was published in The Times of London on Sunday, much of the British media played the news for a lark, with headlines like ?Revealed: Scientist Who Sparked Racism Row Has Black Genes? and ?DN...
