Crew of plane carrying North Korean arms may face death sentence

The Kazakh and Belarusian crew of a plane caught transporting arms from North Korea may face the death penalty, a Thai paper said on Wednesday, citing police.

The Il-76 cargo plane, carrying about 40 tons of weaponry, was seized after landing for refueling at Bangkok's Don Muang airport on December 12. Officials said the weapons included missiles and rocket-propelled grenades.

The paper quoted a senior police official as saying that the crew would be charged with the illegal possession of explosives, punishable by "from two years to death."

The plane's five crew members, one Belarus national and four Kazakhs, were taken to Bangkok's Klong Prem Central Prison after their arrest.

The Bangkok Post quoted investigators as saying the crew were planning to offload part of their cargo in Sri Lanka and the Middle East. However, the suspects reportedly refused to name the buyers or locations.

The plane's Belarusian commander earlier said that the plane had flown from Ukraine, and claimed that neither he nor the other crewmembers knew of the military nature of the cargo.

Mikhail Petukhov was earlier quoted by the Thai news agency TNA as saying the aircraft refueled in Azerbaijan, then in the United Arab Emirates, and then in Thailand while en route to Pyongyang. The plane's commander said the aircraft was scheduled to refuel in Thailand and Sri Lanka on its way back, after which the cargo was expected to be delivered to Ukraine.

Australia introduces web filters

Australia intends to introduce filters which will ban access to websites containing criminal content.

The banned sites will be selected by an independent classification body guided by complaints from the public, said Communications Minister Stephen Conroy.

A seven month trial in conjunction with internet service providers found the technology behind the filter to be 100% effective.

However, there has been opposition from some internet users.

Twitter users have been voicing their disapproval by adding the search tag "nocleanfeed" to their comments about the plans.

"Successful technology isn't necessarily successful policy," said Colin Jacobs, a spokesperson for Electronic Frontiers Australia, a non-profit organisation that campaigns for online freedom.

"We're yet to hear a sensible explanation of what this policy is for, who it will help, and why it is worth spending so much taxpayers' money on."

Mr Conroy said the filters included optional extras such as a ban on gambling sites which ISPs could choose to implement in exchange for a grant.

"Through a combination of additional resources for education and awareness, mandatory internet filtering of RC (refused classification)-rated content, and optional ISP-level filtering, we have a package that balances safety for families and the benefits of the digital revolution," he said.

The filter laws will be introduced in parliament in August 2010 and will take a year to implement.

'noble aims'

"Historical attempts to put filters in place have been effective up to a point," Dr Windsor Holden, principal analyst at Juniper Research, told BBC News.

The "noble aims" of the filter could be lost in its implementation, he warned.

"Clearly there is a need to protect younger and more vulnerable users of the net, but one concern is that it won't just be illegal websites that will be blocked," he added.

"You have to take extreme caution in how these things are rolled out and the uses to which they're put."

India's bizarre sex surveys

It's that time of the year when Indian magazines publish sex surveys mapping the carnal capabilities of a billion people. It has become an annual ritual of sorts: the magazines presume that since India is changing rapidly, the sexual habits of its people must be following suit.
I love the way the surveys are packaged. One, this year, calls itself the Beta Male Special. Others have been called The Naked Truth, Sex and the Single Woman and the more prosaic What Men Want.
I also love the questions and the answer options. "What was your first time like?" asked a survey last year. "Mind blowing, terrible or don't remember?" We were relieved to learn that, for the overwhelming majority, it was "mind blowing". Who says Indians are prudish about sex?
The certitudes on sexual behaviour in these surveys would put Gay Talese to shame. One showed a "more sexually carnivorous urban Indian willing to break taboos and batter boundaries". But, it moaned: "The appetite is clearly greater than the menu". Phew.

A recent one says that in 2009, Indian males have suddenly become more gender sensitive and turned into Beta Males, whatever that means. "Not the dominating, growling, impatient bedroom partner but a clever young man, quickly aroused and usually satiated. He now understands that sex, like anger, politics or the handling of a TV remote control needs some strategy, some fair play," says the survey. Sounds like Neanderthal man has finally grown up into a sexual savant of sorts.
I still don't know how the Indian male is "strategising" through the minefield of amour and sex because the magazine never told me. I look forward to clues in next year's survey, unless Indian man slips back into Neanderthal mode again.

But what I love most is the heart of the survey: the cold statistics.
Some 47% of respondents in the Punjabi city of Ludhiana, famous for its hosiery and cycle-making, say they have committed adultery. In Nagpur 25% of men apparently prefer one-night stands. In historic Lucknow, 32% of men are sexually attracted to Westernised women "with an independent attitude". Some 37% of men belonging to Le Corbusier's noveau riche Chandigarh and 26% from crummy Patna say they masturbate because it helps to relieve stress.
My favourite: one survey rated Hyderabad the kinkiest Indian city - 45% of respondents approved of kinky ways to woo their spouses and partners. The last I heard about the city, a battle-weary politician demanding a separate state had ended a hunger strike, and there was a political crisis going on. Anything kinky about that?

Of course, sex surveys have a mystery about them, so there is no explanation for these bizarre 'findings'. Don't ask frivolous questions about why Nagpur men prefer one-night stands, while Mumbai men love long-term relationships. And before I leave, did you know that 72% of women in Mumbai and 83% of women in Chennai say they are more likely to kiss a shaved man? Don't ask me why. But if you live in either city, you might want to get rid of that moustache and stubble. Fast.

"We have to ensure safe movement, navigation, landing and takeoff of the VIPs and the accompanying delegates," Pandey said at a press conference here on Sunday.
Pandey informed that a doctors' team fully equipped with regulators and oxygen cylinders will be placed there to ensure health safety and to take care of emergency cases.
He added weather monitoring for the event is on in coordination with the weather bureau. "We can safely say that the weather is going to be clear for at least another 10 days. But constant monitoring is on," Pandey said, adding, "The situation is quite safe and we have enough medical back-up."
The cabinet meeting of the Nepali government to be presided by Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal on the laps of the majestic Himalayas is a step further to express its commitments to safeguard the environmental sanctity of the Himalayas for the common interest of local to global communities.
The meeting, which will be held at the sand ground at Gorakshepat the height of approximately 5,164 meters, where table and chairs will be placed, is said to last for 20 minutes. Everest Base Camp is two hours' trek from Gorakshep.

Nepal is going to Celebrate Nepal Tourism Year 2011

'Nepal Tourism Year 2011' is geared to become the biggest thing to happen for the tourism industry in Nepal after 'Visit Nepal 98', however unlike the previous campaign the upcoming one has a strong aim to achieve. That is to bring in 1 Million tourists in the selected year. The Government is upbeat in making this campaign successful and has already launched press-meets, introduction nights in various countries abroad. The ever-changing governments of Nepal seem to have good ideas yet they never manage to actually implement their ideas and carry their duties out.

To make Nepal Tourism Year 2011 a success, the government needs to start from Nepal itself instead of advertising abroad. The government needs to upgrade the facilities provided in Nepal since maintenance does not seem like its in their to-do list at all. Tribuvan International Airport should be a good starting off point, to handle 1 Million passengers it would be appropriate to upgrade the airport by converting the current system to a western approach by introducing computers. Better signage at the airport is a must, also the current staff ranging from the high officials to the cleaners should all be re-trained since theyre customer service skills lack in every department. This not only goes for the airport staff but for most workers in Nepal. There's hardly any 'Thank You' and 'Welcome'.

15. Thats the number of months left till 2011. It is almost certain that there will probably be atleast 2-3 Prime Minister changes in Nepal during that time. Whatever happens, the government must realise they must act accordingly since a political fiasco or another Jana-Andolan will be a major disadvantage to tourism and economy in Nepal. On the other hand the government must work hard to minimise the effect of small minority groups such as Limbuwan, Tamuwan etc since they have quickly captured the power of their states. The minister of tourism and civil aviation should make it a priority to increase and update the infrastructure in Nepal, this maybe by redoing the old bridges or repairing old roads again. Road access to far-flung areas are a must since these may open up new trekking routes.

Information Centre's should be set up in various hotspots around Kathmandu and Pokhara. They should work in a timely manner and provide reliable information to the tourists, however leaving this to the governments hand would probably never work out since most of the actions they undertake fail to finalize. Private companies should take up these approach since theyll be able to carry this out and also maintain it for the long haul. Speaking of long haul, Kathmandu needs to be a more accessible destination. This can be done by linking the only airport to more European and Asian hubs.

These are a few from a list of many things to be done in Nepal.

Bingo Tactics

Date: Sat, 5 Sep 2009 Time: 11:37 PM

Bingo is a simple game which is easy to learn. However, the thrill it offers is just as real as any major gambling games. As far as tactics are concerned, there aren't too many. All we need to know before the game is what the patterns mean when they are called.

The numbers come out randomly and each of them have an equal chance of completing your pattern. The only option that we get, to make a plan is to choose the number of bingo cards we buy. Even if this may not make sense, the experienced players could tell you how many cards you should buy after a glance at the players and the prize amount. If the people who turned up is low and the amount to be won depends on the ticket sale, buying lots of cards would not be recommended. If the amount to be won is big enough, buying a decent number of cards is a good idea. One might think that looking at the numbers while buying them could help. The game is about pure chance and you cannot predict which number has a better probability to come up.

Having lots of cards to keep track in a bingo hall can be tough as well. Online bingo offers us a lot of help in that case. There are game softwares which come equipped with auto dabbers which keep all your cards updated with the numbers being called. There are restrictions to number of cards one can buy. It is important to think logically and not buy the maximum allowed number each time. That way you save some money even if you don't win.

How to Interview Potential Employees

Date: Sun, 6 Sep 2009 Time: 4:09 AM

When you have to go to an interview for a potential job, you're probably nervous. But have you ever considered the idea that the interviewer might be nervous, as well? It's not always easy to interview a person, and you might not know just what kind of questions to ask. If you find yourself needing to interview potential employees and worried about whether you can find the right one, there are some things that you can do.

First, one of the best things you can do is be clear about your job description. If you don't really know what you need, how are you supposed to find the right person? Having a vague job advertisement won't get you as many qualified candidates. Once you find good candidates and you get them in for interviews, ask questions related not only to the job but to the talents and skills of the people you're interviewing. You need to know if what they can do and what they want from a job matches up with what your company is looking for and what it needs out of its employees. If those things aren't a match, the person might not be someone you would want to hire, even if he or she is very nice, intelligent, and has a lot of skills.

Another thing that you want to do is ask questions that are a little bit unique and different. Don't just ask the same boring questions about why the person wants to work there. Get to know the person a little bit, but be careful about asking certain types of questions. You can't ask about things like religion, for example, and if you're unsure about what you can and can't ask, there are resources out there to help you. The requirements vary from country to country, so be sure to pay attention to what's acceptable and legal for your area. If you don't, you could find yourself in trouble after asking a question that you thought was completely innocent. In addition to these tips, you should also allow the potential employee to ask questions about the company and the job. If you don't allow the person to get the information that he or she needs, it's possible that the person won't want the job even if it's offered. Don't let the perfect candidate get away because he or she thought that the job wasn't right. Be open and communicative, instead.
