Protests hit Kashmir after killing of students by police
Protests hit Kashmir after killing of students by police :-
A protest has taken place in Indian-administered Kashmir after police said they killed two alleged rebels and two civilians in the disputed Himalayan territory.
The unrest came as authorities maintained tight security for a Bavarian music concert being staged amid separatist objections.
Police said two of the men were armed rebels, but residents of the area described all four as civilians and said troops shot them as they rode past a security camp on a motorcycle.
Police Inspector-General Nalin Prabhat said on Saturday that police were retaliating against alleged rebels who had opened fire on a police camp in the area, which is about 50km south of Srinagar, the main city in the Indian portion of Kashmir.
Police said they recovered weapons and were working to identify the rebels. They confirmed that two civilians were also killed and one person was injured in the shootout.
According to Associated Press news agency, hundreds of residents, disputing the police account, swarmed the streets of the main town in Shopian district after the shooting. Police fired tear gas and used batons to disperse the crowds.
Adil Ahmed, a 26-year-old student who was shot twice in the stomach, said from a hospital bed that there were no alleged rebels at the site of the incident, and that police gunfire was unprovoked. He said the two men accused of being rebels by police were actually students riding a motorcycle to a local exam centre.
Internet addiction rehabilitation center opened in US
Internet addiction rehabilitation center opened in US :- Not all psychiatrists
are ready to call it an addiction, but for people who feel they can’t
live offline, Pennsylvania now has help: the country’s first hospital-based rehab center for Internet addiction.
Psychologist Kimberly Young runs the new program at the Bradford Regional Medical Center, where Internet addiction is treated as a physical and mental problem and treated similarly to substance abuse addictions.
Young says that the patients who will be admitted for a 10-day detox truly need it, and that Internet addiction may be more pervasive than alcoholism.
“It’s like if you were to think of a heroin addict,” she told Salon. “They are gaunt and sick almost.”
Others disagree. The authority of the American Psychiatric Association, the DSM 5, doesn’t include Internet addiction as a disorder.

Do you want a healthy salary and become a popular personality of your work place ?. If yes then the answer lies in your choice between coffee and tea in the morning.
This interesting statement was made
in Britain after a survey.
According to the research before selecting
your morning sip you should give it some careful thinking because it will most probably
decide your role in the workplace.
According to the research people who
take coffee in the morning are a bit hot headed and are always ready to jump in
any discussion, they are also winners. The
fans of Coffee also take better payroll than the tea drinkers.
In comparison to that the people who
drink tea are left behind in promotions but they are more honest and they like
to work silently.
According to the research people
holding the higher offices are most likely to be fond of coffee but the tea drinkers
are considered as the life and soul of any work place.

Alia,

"There's some random image doing around from 'Highway' that isn't authentic at all! That is not me or Randeep in that picture," Alia posted on Twitter.
"Stills from the film will be out closer to the release probably. So please don't fall for these fake images," she added.

In an earlier interview, Imtiaz Ali, the director of the film stated,
"Highway has been a story that has stayed with me for 15 years. There was
something in it that didn't die. Usually you lose interest in a story beyond a
certain point. But with Highway, there was something very subtle, yet something
very influential. I intended Highway to be the first film that I ever
made."
Lakme Fashion Week Winter Festive 2013
Lakme Fashion Week Winter Festive 2013
After five days of relentless collections by as many as 89
Indian designers made up of both novice talents and veterans, Lakme Fashion Week
Winter Festive 2013 came to an end with a finale showcase by the great Sabyasachi Mukherjee.
While
there were dozens of noticeable micro trends in the mix, by and large there was
a slightly more androgynous feel to many of the creations. This could be a
result of the penetration of the next generation of designers as part of the
process to self discovery. However, even the greats, such as Ritu Kumar,
Manish Malhotra and Sabyasachi, had slightly toughened up their collections
with military accents and collared-shirts over ghagras.
Cholis,
usually centre stage, took a back seat to a twist on the style with modern
midriff crop tops seen at Payal Singhal, Shehla Khan and Global Desi, among
others. At times, they were layered with diaphanous gossamer fabrics and paired
with both full skirts and pants. The sporty trend that first came out in the
‘90s has had a style moment globally for more than a year now and hit the Lakme
Fashion Week runway in a big way.
Jackets
over lehengas, saris, and shararas have been a running trend we picked up on at
India Bridal Week and Delhi Couture Week. However, Ritu Kumar took it one step
further by presenting flowing ‘red riding hood’ capes tied around the neck with
prints inspired by Bhutanese culture. Another prominent mini trend in the same
family was the kotis or vests, both long and short, seen at Anita Dongre.
Finally,
rural village art was best performed at Gaurang Shah with gorgeous tukri and
ajrak patterns in primal colours set against white to make them jump out even
more in celebration. It was a festive, timeless collection that, although
presented on traditional ghagras and chaadar dupattas, could easily be
replicated on any silhouette with equal charm.
Gold
statement pants in brocade and metallic fabrics were spotted at Vikram Phadnis
and were used mostly with whites. They were complimented by matching gold tailored
jackets and blazers for the runway. However, we liked the idea of a pair of
gold pants, especially in brocade, assembled with simple neutrals.
Boat necks
went missing a while back with the onset of Nehru and shirt collars, but
fortunately Manish Malhotra reminded us of their elegance with his repetitive
use of the neckline throughout his beautifully understated pastel shararas and
mirror work saris. The use of sheer tulle and back buttons was particularly
lovely.
Dupattas
and pallus were wrapped interestingly around the neck in twisted crushed
scarves at Nikhil Thampi, Krishna Mehta, and Global Desi to create a stronger
statement than the feminine shoulder drop. An equally effective styling
technique to convey a tougher fashion image was the use of belts enveloping
military sash like dupattas around the waist and adding on shoulder lapels.
These were principally observed at Sabyasachi. Known for his passion of
honouring and celebrating the femininity of women through his creations,
Sabyasachi balanced this by infusing delicate wide net lace on the bottom half
of his saris.
Lashkar-e-Jhangvi to be rooted out in karachi
Lashkar-e-Jhangvi to be rooted out in karachi
According
to the proposed plan prepared by Sindh home department, the operation will most
probably be launched in Lyari Town and Sohrab Goth – the most sensitive areas
declared by the agencies, said the official. Then it will be expanded to
Manghopir, Orangi Town, Korangi, Manghopir, Landhi, Ranchore Lines and Ittehad
Town.
Targeting
the hideouts of banned outfits will be the priority, while the Rangers and
police will be given special powers to conduct search operations in any house,
mosque or madrassah.
The home
department will ask the local people to cooperate with the law-enforcement
agencies.
The
government will constitute a powerful committee to monitor the operation whose
members include Sindh Governor Dr Ishratul Ebad, Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah,
Chief Secretary Muhammad Ijaz Chaudhry, journalists and civil society.
The
National Crisis Management Cell, a subsidiary department of the interior
ministry, highly recommended both the federal as well as the provincial
government to cleanse the city. “The federal government, by using all forces,
should launch an operation in Karachi,” is the gist of a report sent to the
prime minister earlier this week.
The report
further revealed that several Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan factions and al-Qaeda
elements have moved to Karachi. Such factions are penetrating deeper into the
city every passing day, it claims. Therefore, a targeted operation is
inevitable whether the military is engaged or not, NCMC Director-General Wing
Commander (retd) Tariq Lodhi advised the government in the report.
The
militant group Lashkar-e-Jhangvi is responsible for much of the violence in the
city and it needs to be rooted out, stated the report.

Obama: Syria is not Iraq or Iran :
“The key point that I want to emphasize to the American people: The military plan that has been developed by the joint chiefs and that I believe is appropriate is proportional. It is limited. It does not involve boots on the ground,” Obama said as he hosted top lawmakers at the White House. “This is not Iraq and this is not Afghanistan.”

Obama also pushed Congress
for a “prompt vote” of support for attacking Syria and signaled he would be OK
with lawmakers imposing some limits on the mission.
“So long as we are accomplishing what needs to be accomplished, which is
to send a clear message to Assad degrading his capabilities to use chemical
weapons, not just now but also in the future as long as the authorization
allows us to do that, I’m confident that we’re going to be able to come up with
something that hits that mark,” he said.
