English?!??!!
At the end of the day, you've given 110 per cent via Telegraph UK
Eager to preserve the English language against a rising tide of nonsense, we asked readers to compose a piece of prose crammed with as many infuriating phrases as possible. Christopher Howse is amazed and amused by the torrent of replies...

I hear what you're saying but, with all due respect, it's not exactly rocket science. Basically, at the end of the day, the fact of the matter is you have got to be able to tick all the boxes. It's not the end of the world, but, to be perfectly honest with you, when push comes to shove, you don't want to be literally stuck between a rock and a hard place. Going forward we need to be singing from the same songsheet but you can't see the wood from the trees. Naturally hindsight is 20/20 vision and you have to take the rough with the smooth before proceeding onwards and upwards. The bottom line is you wear your heart on your sleeve and, when all is said and done, this is all part and parcel of the ongoing bigger picture. C'est la vie (if you know what I mean).

This is the reality... and it is pathetic
Female foeticide instigates rage via NDTV
This it the reality about situation of women not Prathiba Patil. This will change not by mass revolution or within a day. This can only change if all of us each and every individual - man and woman - perceive each other as equal.
Believe that solution is
not to cover them form head to toe but to teach men not to look at them as sex objects.
not to ban them from going to work at odd hours but to make it safer for them to work at any hour
not to train them that subordination is good but to give them the right to choose
Not all the problems come form men often it is women who cause problems for other women...
More on this some other time.

Isn't the answer obvious
India 360: Are sex determination tests misused? via IBMLive
Doesn't this seem to be a really stupid question? In a country where the male to female ratio is constantly dropping isn't it obvious that this is being misused. Why do people ask questions that have such obvious answers? I guess just to put some doubt in the mind of other that the answer can be otherwise.

What are we doing to stop this?
Haryana panchayat murders couple over caste via IBNLive
Look at the never of this guy... I wonder what goes on in these idiots heads that they can succumb to killing others. Is it just me or there are others who simply do not see the logic. Maybe on second thoughts these are mad people who do not know logic or reasoning. But still how can they?
But one things always come to my mind "what arrogant creeps" these people are to think that they have the right to take lives. If they want to do this society any good take your own lives...
Less than 200 kilometers from the Capital of India, a scene of barbaric brutality, a mindless medieval mandate that has cost the lives of a young newly-wed couple.
Manoj and Babli got married on the May 18, not realising that their village panchayat would take strong objection to this.
The panchayat's logic was that both Manoj and Babli were of the same gotra and that, in the eyes of the panchayat, makes them brother and sister.
...
Their bodies thrown into a canal, hands and legs tied up and were cremated by the police who declared them destitutes.
Finally, under pressure, they acted, arresting three people on charges of killing the couple but even then, the alleged killers show no remorse.
“Those who do wrong have to die. Law does not recognize this but society punishes such people,” said one of the accused.

What the hell were they thinking????
15-yr-old surgeon's parents detained, face probe via CNNIBN
Dr Murugesan and his wife Dr Gandhimathy were taken into custody and detained at the Valanadu police station, police sources said. Police questioned Dr Murugesan and his wife, the parents of the 15-year-old boy who allegedly performed a caesarian on a woman at Mannaparai in Trichy, Tamil Nadu.
The Caesarian was done three-months ago allegedly by 15-year-old Dhileepan who is a class ten student to create a world record. Murugesan now denies that he allowed his son perform the C-section operation. Reportedly, the CD of the surgery was shown at an Indian Medical Association meeting.
...
On Thursday, the team interrogated the boy, Dhileepan, and his doctor parents for nearly eight hours. However, the case remained on a shaky ground with the crucial video evidence having reportedly been destroyed.

Be fair with others, but then keep after them until they're fair with you.

Begin challenging your own assumptions. Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in awhile, or the light won't come in.

Thought
Some things you never thought would happen with you... but they do
Some feelings you never thought would develop in you... but they do
Some decisions you never thought would shake you... but they do
How your ideals get shaken when reality hits?
Where you find the way to continue when your strength is taken from you?
After all life was never fair for us and it will never be...
but we still have to fight it out and be what we want to be.

This is my wish for you:
Comfort on difficult days,
smiles when sadness intrudes,
rainbows to follow the clouds,
laughter to kiss your lips,
sunsets to warm your heart,
hugs when spirits sag,
beauty for your eyes to see,
friendships to brighten your being,
faith so that you can believe,
confidence for when you doubt,
courage to know yourself,
patience to accept the truth,
Love to complete your life.

This is the state of the gov. in UP. I think along with the two accused mulayam should be hung. I can't imagine why the hell is it taking so long to get justice in this case. For once I wish kill these people without any trial... they don't deserver to live.
