Kerala Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan Tuesday renewed his charges against Tata Tea, saying he saw the plot of land that the company had allegedly encroached near here. “I saw a five-acre plot of land encroached by the Tatas. Tomorrow I will visit other parts of Munnar. State Forest Minister Binoy Viswom and Backward Classes Minister A.K. Balan will accompany me. If you give a list of encroachments, I will also look into those cases,” Achuthanandan told reporters here after his field visit
Permalink – Comments (View) As Jon Carson explained earlier, in eight states, this election is already underway. The resources we have on hand for October will directly impact where, and how, we’re able to compete. From the beginning, this campaign has been fueled by ordinary people giving when and how they can. The reporting deadline for September is tonight at midnight. But more importantly, there are only 35 days left before polls close. There is no better time to make a donation, to buy a
After spending the week discussing how you can “re-fashion” your wardrobe at home and make your clothing as eco-friendly as possible, it seemed fitting to pull out some of our past ideas for greening up your closet. For one thing, you can make a pretty nifty-looking leather cuff bracelet from an old belt that’s seen better days. Around your waist it may look worn and tired, but on your wrist, it will turn into one cool shabby-chic accessory. This week also served as a reminder of celebritie
Before I go onto the main topic of this post, I want to mention that I encountered the most odd technical glitch on this blog which basically shot this afternoon. It started when I realized that my Internet wouldn’t connect to my website. Indeed, any website hosted by Hostgator was offline to me.

Another temple issue Published by Mahendran on 1 October, 2008 in Tamil, indian, religion and rights. 0 Comments A temple was brought down in Ampang, Selangor. Put the debate whether it is a temple or a shrine, because a place of worship is a place of worship. I don’t want to be dragged into that technicalities issue. So the MPAJ went by its own ignoring the state government’s order not to demolish any temples built before March 8, so they went against their bossses and did actions on th
Alaska Gov. and Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is going through three days of debate prep in rural Arizona. On Thursday she’ll face the Democratic VP nominee, Sen. Joe Biden, who’s no doubt doing his own prep for prime time. But Palin took a little time off today to practice some of her speaking points in a surprise phone radio interview with the popular Hugh Hewitt that gives us an advance glimpse into Palin’s parlance. Hewitt was an ardent supporter of former Massachuset
Nobody’s in charge of John McCain’s campaign message right now, let alone the Republican Party. http://enough2008.blogspot.com/2008/09/is-anybody-in-charge-of-republican.html They’re floundering.
Ryan: Can you be anymore partial…seriously? Everytime Kay Hagan opens her mouth or sends out a press release…it is run, yet in looking the Dole website, countless press releases are ignored. Unless the Dole campaign just mistakenly not sending them to you guys; I am left wondering, when you will give equal time. Dole warned against the financial meltdown three times and the need for regulation and oversight on Fannie and Freddie. These warnings were quickly negated by the Democrats and ev

You know your campaign’s in trouble when you’re reduced to barring Maureen Dowd from the campaign plane. That’s what the McCain camp did last week. It’s a little hard to grasp, since she’s at least as hard on “O Bambi” as she is on McCain. Maybe it’s the tenor and tone of that caustic wit of h…
