Postnoon E-Paper Dec 10, 2011

ONLY `530CR COLLECTED OUT OF `1,300CR The GHMC may be scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to funding, but they seem to like scrounging. According to sources, the Corporation has failed to collect even 50 per cent of taxes due to it. The Commissioner has found that Property Tax, the lifeline of GHMC’s war chest, is not being collected due to the numerous properties in legal dispute.

GHMC coffers half empty If GHMC promptly collects property tax, it could meet its expenses, but collection is lax owing to corruption

The race gets costlier Postnoon news

Inkeshaf Ahmed

HYDERABAD: Tax collection is the lifeline of any governance.

For the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC), property tax is the bread and other taxes its butter.

But, in a shocking observation, the GHMC seems to have failed miserably to collect even 50 percent of the taxes due.

The corporation a total of 12.5 lakh properties in its limits.

Among these, 11.6 lakh are residential properties and the remaining are commercial ones. If taxes are collected duley and completely, the corporation need not go begging to the state or banks.

ers. Incidentally, one of the defaulters is none other than the titular prince of Hyderabad, Mukaram Jha Bahadur.

Postnoon, in its columns, exposed this issue,and the AP Lokayukta took up the case suo motu and issued notices to GHMC commissioner.

The Corporaiton officials, later slapped demand notices on all the defaulters and asked them to pay the property tax.

Speaking to Postnoon, GHMC Additional Commissioner Shiva Parvathi has said that they had issued notices to all the top1000 property defaulters for collection of the tax and added that if the defaulters did not pay the required amount within the stipulated time they would take other steps including seizure of their properties.

The commissioner found out later that property tax, the arterial blood vessel of GHMC, is not collected fully because numerous properties are in legal dispute. Many structures are unlawfully constructed or violat building norms. And, he knows this could not happen without the involvement of Corporation officials concerned.

But, understandably, the commissioner can’t publicly state it. “We are taking all steps to increase revenue from property tax. I have instructed the officials concerned regarding this,” he said. Recently, the commissioner has felicitated an official of the corporation for being instrumental in collecting over `1 crore of property tax from one of the top defaulters.

HYDERABAD: As the race for mayoral position has heated up, the candidates vying for the seat have resorted to all kinds of tricks.

The buzz going around GHMC corridors is how the affluent probables are eager to grab the coveted position at any cost.

All India Majlis-Itehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) president and Hyderabad Member of Parliament, Asaduddin Owaisi is shocked to hear of such talks. He condemned the news reports that said the mayor aspirants are ready to buy the seat for `5 crore. Owaisi was particularly aggrieved with a newscast in one of the leading Telugu TV channels recently. “It’s atrocious, strongly condemnable and far from the truth. I think it is not reprehensive talks. I am sure the TV channel has done it to achieve cheap publicity.” “How can you (media) allow this kind of talk to be aired in public?” He enquired.

He said his party never sold seats and will not in the future.

Commenting on the election of mayor, Owaisi said that his party is yet to decide on the mayor candidate. “ We have not yet started the process of selecting the mayor candidate. There is a lot of time to complete the election process. We will take up the issue after the approval of the present mayor’s resignation,” he said. He has also expressed surprise on media reports on prospective party candidates for the mayor’s post. “Media have the freedom to write anything. But I can’t comment”, he signs off.

A virtual ‘coup’ against Kiran A Saye Sekhar

W

hat would Ghulam Nabi Azad tell Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy? He would explain the amplified dissidence against the latter’s leadership. The growing displeasure over the Kiran’s regime would come in to sharp focus, what with the ‘miscalculation’ of number of legislators sailing with YS Jagan.

What drove a wedge between the ministers and the Chief Minister? As a senior colleague of Kiran Kumar Reddy’s Cabinet indicated, the Chief Minister was not amenable to any advise. To say the least, he would brush aside the suggestions and recommendation of his colleagues.

Though allocation of portfolios indeed created a chasm between the ministers and

Kiran, it subsided at the instance of the high command. But the rejection of a recommendation to list a neurosurgeon for a ‘Padma’ award was the seed for the differences between the team and the leader. Ever since, the list of woes the ministers had against their boss accrued. The neurosurgeon had the credentials of operating upon an ace tennis player.

At least five ministers were gunning for the head of Chief Minister, a few days before the no-confidence. It is a common knowledge as to who egged Chieranjeevi and his group on the Congress leadership to threaten that they could turn the tables against the ruling party.

The ministers who have been nursing a grievance against the Chief Minister include Botsa Satyanarayana, D L Ravindra

Reddy, Vatti Vasantha Kumar, Anam Ramanarayana Reddy and Dharmana Prasada Rao. They

‘I Support Kapil Sibal’

Campaign for Internet Freedom Osama Salman Salman.o@postnoon.com

I

nternet is a powerful tool and we understand the implications that a derogatory comment can make — this is the soft but powerful voice that has to be strained to be heard over the otherwise loud criticism of Kapil Sibal. While the protesters and critics are clearly visible, the supports of the moderated use of internet are outnumbered.

They are, however, just as important in the fiery debate.

“I support Kapil Sibal, even though I might be one of the few people outside the government. India is a melting pot of cultures, religions and regions and is set in perfect harmony.

However, once in a while, it gets disturbed and this is when we realize that things as petty as a

‘status update’ can actually do damage,” said Binit Kaur, a homemaker.

The supports of the ‘prescreening of comments and statuses on social networking sites’ are more than estimated, insist this elite group. “Believe it or not, I know at least 25 people out of 104 who support Kabil Sibal’s remarks. We might be overpowered by the majority, but we are large and significant enough,” pointed out Fauzan Khan, an employee of a marketing firm.

The man of the hour, Sibal is being attacked verbally through every medium, especially cyberspace. But he finds his supporters in the most unlikely of places- Students.

While students are who you least expect to support the moderation of internet, they are

there, few perhaps, but they exist. “I support Kapil Sibal. He is right in what he said,” Yousuf Mouhsen, a class VII student said. Ask him further questions into why he thinks so and he immediately retaliates and says, “Because unmonitored internet use is bad.”

Many may think that he is too young to understand what he is saying, which might be largely true, but he adds to the number of supporters to Sibal.

“People argue that we are becoming increasing like an Islamist state or like communist state of China. While in a sense that might be true, it is alright to keep a tab to maintain peace and balance in a country like India. There have been famous instances where a single ‘status update’ has created uproars and done terrible damage. Don’t you think that it is important to screen what you put up on the internet?” questioned Ashok Chellam, an IT professional.

“Very recently in Hyderabad, there was a video that was downloaded from Facebook and spread through MMS in a junior college that had a communal tinge to it.

There were protests later and the police had to interfere to disperse the crowd away. Now had the video been ‘prescreened’, do you think such an incident would happen? Not everyone on the social networking sites come to socialize.

Some come just to create a flutter and some do it unconsciously,” added Binit.

are now saying that ‘anybody is ok’ for them, other than Kiran.

They successfully injected into

the thought process of the Congress high command that precipice on which the party’s fate is hanging was because Kiran never tried to rope in the Jagan group. On the other hand, he ignored the brewing threat which forced the party to the lean on to the support of Chiranjeevi’s group.

The message that they (the ministers) were very much sore with the Chief Minister was aired across to Azad when the latter was in Dubai. When they failed to gain access, the mantra they used to get him on line was that the Kiran Kumar Reddy-led Congress Government was on the ‘death bed’ in the State.

Sources told Postnoon that Azad indicated to them to ‘be patient’, as Sonia Gandhi was never inclined to change leaders at the drop of the hat.

Protest against the protest NEW DELHI: Some of Hazare's detractors are also planning to stage protest at the same site and raise questions to him but have not received the permission for any demonstration.

Hazare has raised the decibel on the issue, bringing Rahul Gandhi under the line of fire and repeating that it was the Congress scion who was behind the watered-down proposals of Parliamentary Standing Committee on Lokpal.

He has also warned the government that if a strong Lokpal Bill is not passed in the ongoing Winter Session of Parliament, he will sit on an indefinite fast from December 27 at Ramlila Maidan here and campaign against it in the upcoming Assembly elections in five states, including UP. The 74-year-old activist, who had gone on his second fast in Ramlila Maidan in August for the same issue, has been demanding inclusion of lower bureaucracy under the ambit of Lokpal besides provisions for Citizen's Charter.

Beyond Borders

Virginia Tech shooter was a student WASHINGTON: Police on Friday identified the gunman who killed a police officer at Virginia Tech and then killed himself as a 22-year-old Ross Truett Ashley, a parttime student at Radford University.

The crime at the 31,000-student Virginia Tech revived memories of the April 2007 bloodbath in which 32 people were shot dead by a student who then killed himself — the deadliest shooting incident by a single gunman in US history.

State police said there was “no prior connection” between Ashley and campus police officer Deriek Crouse, who was slain when the gunman walked up to his

Putin faces waves of protest

V

ladimir Putin is set to face the biggest show of opposition yet to his strongman rule with tens of thousands of Russians promising to take to the streets on Saturday in a popular wave of discontent unseen since he came to power 12 years ago.

The opposition coalesced around a set of concrete demands, including the annulment of a parliamentary vote marred by fraud and the holding of new elections.

“We expect the biggest political demonstration of the last 10 years,” said Ilya Ponomaryov, a Duma deputy with the Just Russia party and a protest organiser.

“What will happen tomorrow is an important step in the development of our democracy.”

More than 35,000 people indicated via Facebook that they planned to join the protest in Moscow.

After a day of intense negotiations, protest organisers agreed to demands by the city government to move from Revolution Square to Bolotnaya (Swamp) Square, away from the Kremlin.

The Kremlin has stepped up security around Moscow since the vote on Sunday.

More than 50,000 police and 2,000 interior troops, backed by water cannon, helicopters and reinforced arrest lorries, have been deployed to the capital.

The wave of protests has exposed discontent among Russia's middle class, who have begun to decry the lack of democracy and freedom of expression under Putin and the runaway corruption that has flourished under his rule.

unmarked patrol car during a “routine traffic stop” involving a third person.

The 39-year-old Crouse “was not able

to return fire or fire his weapon,” state police spokeswoman Corrine Geller earlier told reporters.

Ashley has been connected to the theft at gunpoint of a white 2011 Mercedes SUV on Wednesday, the state police statement said. That vehicle was found Thursday on the Virginia Tech campus.

The police has stated that an autopsy will be conducted and the investigation was ongoing.

Virginia Tech associate vice president Larry Hincker said the university had, once again, been the scene of “a wanton random act of violence.”

Cameron’s veto plunges Britain into uncertainity D avid Cameron plunged Britain’s position in Europe into the greatest uncertainty in a generation as he used his veto to block a new EU-wide treaty and left at least 23 other countries to forge a pact to salvage the single currency.

With the apparent blessing of the pro-European deputy prime minister, Nick Clegg – and the subsequent delight of Tory backbenchers – Cameron deployed the ultimate weapon in European summitry at about 2.30am yesterday.

EU leaders promptly agreed to bypass Britain and establish a new accord on the euro among themselves by March. The EU appeared poised to line up 26-1 against Cameron in support of the Franco-German blueprint, leaving Britain utterly isolated.

The veto was unexpected and was being seen as a watershed in Britain’s fractious relationship with the rest of

Europe. Cameron insisted on securing concessions on, and exemptions from, EU financial markets regulation as the price of his assent to the German-led euro salvation blueprint.

The others balked, France most vocally, accusing Cameron of putting Britain’s perceived interests ahead of

resolving the EU’s worst crisis.

While Cameron has failed to secure the concessions for Britain’s strong financial services sector, Britain has also forfeited its place at the table where Europe’s future and the new euro regime will be determined. For the first time since Britain joined the European Community in 1973, a treaty that goes to the heart of how the EU works will be struck without a British signature.

Arguing he had to protect the City of London, Cameron demanded that any transfer of power from national regulators to an EU regulator on financial services be subject to a veto; the UK be free to place higher capital requirements on banks; that the European Banking Authority remain in London; and the European Central Bank be rebuffed in its attempts to rule that eurodenominated transactions take place within the eurozone.

Matters of saving and spending

Interest hike affected housing loans: LICHFL

Postnoon News

HYDERABAD: Increase in interest rates by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has amplified the borrowing costs of the housing finance companies. In turn, Net Interest Margin (NIM) and spread has decreased in the sector.

Only minimum costs are being passed on to the customer, but a lot of it is burdened by the housing financing companies.

This brought them under pressure. The other major challenges

are economic volatility and inflation, said V.K. Sharma, Director and Chief Executive, LIC Housing Finance Ltd (LICHFL) The increase in interest rates or the separate state issue did not show any effect on the end users.

There is a lot of demand for loans.

The separate state issue, in away, affected the price of the properties and upcoming projects. The property prices in Hyderabad are low compared to Mumbai.

The property values are going to rise in the city, said Sharma He

further added that there is only 10 per cent price growth in the Tier 1 cities. It is right to buy and invest in properties of tier 2 and tier 3 cities. There is a high demand and the price growth is about 30 per cent in cities like Vijayawada, Visakhapatnam and Warangal.

The LICHFL has targeted to distribute Rs. 3,500 crore towards housing loans in the current financial year, as against Rs. 2,500 crore of last year. Inaugurating a threeday property show, ‘Sonta Inti Sambaraalu’ at Satyasai Nigamagamam here on Friday, Director and Chief Executive of LICHFL V K Sharma said that 39 builders and developers from various parts of the twin cities are showcasing their properties to the customers.

The customers would get their loans sanctioned on the spot with new discount interest rate of 10.4 per cent (floating rate).The processing fee is reduced from Rs. 30,000 to Rs 5,000 and service tax for a property worth Rs. 35 lakh.

Builders may also provide some discounts.

Students must focus on fundamentals Raghav Avvari Postnoon News

HYDERABAD: Students are urged to get their fundamentals right while appearing for interviews. Raghav Avvari, Deputy General Manager of HR in IBM, said here on Friday that most of those failing to clear the technical round in interviews for recruitments conducted by software and hardware companies were unable to field basic questions. He said lack of preparation and proper understanding would cost them dearly.

Raghav was speaking at a seminar on ‘scope of management graduates in various sectors’ organised by Kohinoor Business School, Khandala, at National Institute of Micro, Small

and Medium Enterprises here.

Replying to a query from a participant, he said that experience came through a learning process and freshers could not grudge their senior for ‘knocking away’ their opportunity.

“Be patient, your turn will come. Hone your skills sets and work on your strengths,” he said.

Milind, professor of management in Kohinoor Business School, explained how the stock markets worked. He actually demystified the stock markets by explaining the nuances of the bourses.

B. Ratna Rao, CEO of Sabera Consulting, discussed how management education would mold students into good citizens and tomorrow’s managers by citing interesting examples. The final session had a quiz show.

Students pursuing their graduation from Govt. College for Women, Begumpet and boys from Pragati College, Koti participated in the seminar conducted

by Sewta Balasubramanian and B Maheswaran, students of Kohinoor B school.

Redknapp slams FA Rooney appeal Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has accused the Football Association of double standards over their campaign to get Wayne Rooney’s Euro 2012 ban reduced

R

ooney’s ban for next summer’s tournament was cut from three matches to two after he was sent off for kicking out at Montenegro’s Miodrag Dzudovic during England’s final qualifier in October. The FA had appealed against the UEFA punishment at a hearing in Nyon, Switzerland.

Redknapp thinks the FA’s stance is hypocritical as he is sure that had the Manchester United player lashed out in a similar manner in a domestic game, he would be suspended for at least three games. Redknapp, the bookmakers’ favourite to succeed Fabio Capello as England boss, said, “In all honesty it was a threematch ban for violent conduct.”

Khan eyeing the big leagues Amir Khan plans to bid farewell to the light-welterweight division on Saturday night before pursuing mega-fights and superstardom in 2012

T

he Bolton fighter hopes to successfully defend his WBA and IBF titles against Lamont Peterson in Washington before leaving the 10-stone ranks as the division’s recognised number one.

From there, 25-year-old Khan plans to move up to the welterweight division where riches and pound-for-pound kingpin Floyd Mayweather await, and he said, “I’ll probably move up to welterweight in my next fight because there’s nobody out there I can face at light-welter.”

He added, “There are big names in the welterweight division and I can work my way towards those big super-fights against the likes of Floyd Mayweather and also Shane Mosley, who is in that division and someone I could probably face.

“There are some real superfights for me in that division that people will want to see.” Khan (26-1, 18KO wins) claims the ball is already rolling as they work towards a contest with undefeated veteran Mayweather.

“We’ve offered the fight to Mayweather’s team and they are interested in the fight,” he said. “I think that fight could happen in the next six to nine months,

maybe even sooner. It depends how we come through this fight against Peterson.

“When I fight Mayweather I’m not going to be fighting for a big payday because I can make that fighting anybody, really. I want to fight Mayweather because I want to beat him. I want to be the first to beat him and I think I’ve got the style to do that.

“I want to take away that pound-for-pound world title from him and be known as the best fighter in the world. When the time is right, within the next six to nine months, we’ll jump on that and take the fight against him.”

Khan, who weighed in one pound lighter than Peterson at 139lbs, is the heavy favourite for the bout on Saturday night.

U

nited’s 2-1 defeat to Basle on Wednesday meant they failed to emerge from the group stage for the first time since 2005 and the champions suffered another blow today with the news that Nemanja Vidic will miss the rest of the season after rupturing his knee ligament in Switzerland.

In contrast, Chelsea went through on Tuesday with a 3-0 win over Valencia, joining Arsenal, who topped their group despite losing 3-1 to Olympiacos.

Chelsea were also group winners meaning that the two London clubs will avoid defending champions Barcelona plus Real Madrid, Inter Milan and Bayern Munich in next Friday’s draw. Arsenal and Chelsea have both been runners-up but with three-time winners United out, Wenger senses England’s capital could finally be home to the champions of Europe.

The Arsenal manager said, “We were close [to winning the trophy], Chelsea were close too

He added, “You can look at it and say it wasn’t that violent, but it doesn’t matter. If you cuff someone, you get a three-match ban. Those are the rules. If you appealed it (domestically), it would be a frivolous appeal and you would probably get four games if you went to the FA.” Redknapp now expects the FA to be besieged with appeals for domestic red cards.

“For them to get it from three to two, it opens up a can of worms,” he said. “There will be clubs appealing against bans and they will want to know why they aren’t getting it cut from three to two for similar situations.

“People will look at it and think: ‘hang on, the FA have gone

and appealed against his (Rooney’s) red, why can’t we?’

“From England’s point of view, I’m pleased to see him get two because he’s that important to England, but in all honesty, the rules are supposed to be the rules and they have not been adhered to in this situation.”

Redknapp is the second Premier League manager to question the FA’s appeal against Rooney’s ban after Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish did so on Thursday. Dalglish said, “I find it a bit strange. The FA are supposed to be setting an example for things yet they appeal against Wayne Rooney’s three-match ban. I don’t think that’s a good example to set.”

Live on ESPN/Star Sports Barclays Premier League Arsenal v Everton, 8.30pm (Saturday Dec10) Liverpool v QPR, 8.30pm (Saturday Dec10) Man Utd v Wolverhampton, 8.30pm (Saturday Dec10)

Arsene Wenger: Man United’s exit helps us — the two teams were very, very close. “You face competition from all over Europe with some massive clubs but maybe this is London’s season, you never know. “When you go out of the Champions League it is, of course, a big disappointment but every team responds in a different way.

“You want to play in the Champions League but the risk is that you have to go out

at some stage. You have to deal with the disappointment, that’s part of being a big club. Let’s not forget that Manch es ter United have played in three finals out of the last four, so for them we have to consider it [their exit] as an accident.”

United’s focus will now be on trying to close the five-point gap on Premier League leaders Manchester City although they will have to do that without Vidic. The centre-half went down following a tangle of legs with Marco Streller. Manager Sir Alex Ferguson said, “I thought it was a bad injury when I saw it. It’s a bit of a blow.”

Ferguson’s side face Wolves tomorrow and the Scot is convinced his side will put their disappointment behind them.

He said, “Our young players got a nasty experience on Wednesday but they know they have the trust of myself and their coaches. They will not be hounded because of one bad performance.”

New Zealand strike back, gain slim lead

Chris Martin

N

ew Zealand’s openers built a lead of 43 over Australia by tea after the visiting seam attack had slid the hosts to 136 all out in reply to 150 on day two of the second Test.

Led by Chris Martin’s unstinting bounce, movement and accuracy, all the visitors’ bowlers had

moments to enjoy as Australia briefly stared at the possibility of being bowled out for less than 100 for the fourth time in 18 months and the third in the space of a year, reports cricinfo. Peter Siddle and James Pattinson produced the most substantial partnership of the innings from the depths of 7 for 75, but could not

prevent New Zealand from gaining an unexpected first innings lead of 14.

Batting a second time, Brendon McCullum and Martin Guptill took advantage of an indifferent start by Pattinson and Siddle to take New Zealand to 0 for 29 and their most promising position to win a Test match over Australia for some years. They did so in conditions that seemed to ease a little for batting, but the bowlers did not put the ball consistently where they needed to.

Australia had no such respite in the morning. Usman Khawaja and Michael Clarke fought hardest among the batsmen, but all were found woefully deficient against the moving ball.

Following Martin’s example, Tim Southee, Trent Boult and Doug Bracewell all found a hint of deviation either way to exploit Australian vulnerability. Boult pouched three wickets on debut and impressed with his subtle swing and sustained line.

Resuming at 1 for 12, Khawaja and David Warner played and missed often amid pushing a few runs, and New Zealand were given the early impression they were well and truly in the contest.

This notion was confirmed when Warner walked into a drive at Martin and edged to first slip.

Ricky Ponting walked to the middle in a Hobart Test for the first time since his double century against Pakistan in 2010, intent on another score of heft. One or two crisp connections suggested he was in good touch, but he was soon made to look as foolish by Southee as Graham Gooch used to be at the hands of Alderman.

WSH may decide today to postpone the league NEW DELHI: Organisers of the World Series Hockey (WSH) are in a quandary over postponing the league to after the Olympic qualifiers in view of its dates clashing with the national camp. A decision is expected today (Saturday).

The Indian Hockey Federation (IHF) and Nimbus Sports, the organisers of the league scheduled to kick off on Dec 17, are conscious of the fact that the Indian players have already expressed their desire to take part in the camp for the Olympic qualifiers in Bangalore starting on Sunday.

The top players have in two signed letters communicated to Hockey India (HI) that they would be at the camp.

India captain Bharat Chettri told on Tuesday that the players prefer the league to be held after the Olympic qualifiers.

The IHF after a meeting with the sports ministry decided to firm up its mind on Saturday.

“We will decide on the future course of action by tomorrow,” a top official of the organising committee, not wanting to be named, told.

“The international players and the coaches have started

arriving and will go a h e a d with the camp. But we want our players to play in the league as well. We have spoken to some of the players. We care for them and do not want to create a problem for them. We know how HI made them to sign letters,” he said.

The national camp will run from Dec 11–Jan 15. The London Olympics qualifying event is from Feb 15–26.

“Nowhere a national camp is run for so many days,” he said.

Anand draws with Kramnik in Classics LONDON: World champion Viswanathan Anand played out a draw with former challenger Vladimir Kramnik of Russia in the seventh round of London Chess Classics here.

After a hard earned victory over Nigel Short of England in the previous round, the Indian ace could not do much with his white pieces and decided to split the point on the first all-drawn day in the Classic this year.

World number one Magnus Carlsen of Norway had an off day and that paved the way for Hikaru Nakamura of United States to strengthen his position at the top of the table with another easy draw as black against Luke McShane of England.

Michael Adams of England had it safe right from the word go against Levon Aronian of Armenia while in the other game of the day, English David Howell signed peace with compatriot Nigel Short.

The lead positions changed only a little following a peaceful day as Nakamura stretched himself to be two points ahead of Carlsen, Kramnik and McShane who all have to play

an extra game compared to the American. Aronian and Anand share the fifth spot on six points, two points clear of short who, in turn, is one point ahead of backrankers Howell and Adams.

Anand got little with the favourable colour against Kramnik after the latter went for a queens gambit declined.

After initial skirmish, Anand had to part with a rook for minor peace even as the position never left the boundaries of a draw.

Aronian was quite happy as Adams went for a harmless setup in the Berlin defence.

Regulation exchanges led to a level rook and pawns endgame where only Adams, with his listless play, had anything to complain about.

Nakamura looks set to cap the year with another big triumph as he now has two white games remaining. Playing black in a closed Sicilian, the American had little trouble in maintaining the balance with his black pieces.

Short could not secure his second victory in the tournament as Howell played safe. PTI

India too good for Maldives; face Afghanistan in final NEW DELHI: Five times champions India in a vastly improved performance on Friday defeated their bugbear Maldives 3-1 to enter their third successive SAFF Cup football final here at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium and set up a title clash with surprise package Afghanistan.

Afghanistan qualified for their maiden final with a hard-fought 10 win over Nepal in the other semifinal through an extra-time goal by their Norway-based striker Belal Arezou. A back-heel by Sanjar Ahmadi set up Arezou, who made an excellent sprint from the centre-half, muscled past the Nepalese defence and slotted it in.

Both the teams came agonisingly close to scoring during the

regulation time. Tempers flayed during the dying minutes of the game and Nepal’s Biraj Maharjan was red carded for a nasty tackle.

In the first semi-final, India were impressive and pressed hard right from the start. They should have scored much earlier than their live-wire wing-back Syed Rahim Nabi did in the 23rd minute.

The Maldives equaliser in the 60th minute was spectacular, a booming long-ranger by Shamweel Qasim giving no chance to the Indian goalkeeper. Eight minutes later, India struck a second time through Sunil Chettri from a penalty and he scored again in the injury time. He is now the leading scorer with six goals.

ust like a coin has two sides, so do relationships.

It takes a lot of care to maintain one's relations.

Being in love is supposed to be one of the most beautiful feelings, as you always have someone you can fall back on. But as the companionship grows steadier, one thing we tend to forget is to let our beloved know of our love. Soon the little gestures which had the couple enamoured like the date night or that thank you note goes into the background. We begin to take our partners for granted.

Anchor Mini Mathur who is married to director Kabir Khan for more than a decade now feels it’s the obvious factor that

allows the 'take-for-granted' attitude to seep into the relationship. "More often that not, it's the assigned domestic duties and pre-conceived gender roles that make you take each other for granted. You start feeling it is his job to get the car washed while the guy might feel it’s the wife who will be doing the cooking. One does not recognise that it is these small and routine acts which set in the boredom," she explains.

The actor goes on to add, "I've been married to Kabir for so many years now and the initial heady excitement of falling in love obviously does not keep on forever. One needs to do things together some times out of the normal routine life, like go for adventure sports, or a holiday and

spend some time with each other and not worry about your usual daily schedules and do things that your spouse likes. Sharing each other interests makes you think beyond the obvious and you find new ways to do things you have not done before. It is about growing together," she says and goes onto add, "Also I feel communication is a very cosmopolitan word to use which only outlines the issues. According to me it’s the actions that matter more than the words,” she shares.

With time the auto pilot mode of thinking seeps in and the things that used to be special get neglected or forgotten.

The most common problem faced in relationships today is that each partner is thought to be taking the other for granted. Postnoon speaks to a few couples who share their insights on how to avoid falling into this trap

Thakur, feels this attitude is not restricted only to a couples, it persists in other relations as well. “It is something that comes eventually as you start getting comfortable and even if you think of doing those special things, you tend to take it lightly. One needs to reinvent and work towards keeping a relationship from getting bogged down," he shares.

What are the reasons that lead to such behaviour? "I feel it’s mainly because of the hectic lifestyles that we lead. It tends to take a toll on the our personal life. There is so much travelling and such erratic schedules that spending time together is what starts creating misunderstandings.

relationship"says Chang.

Actor Pooja Bedi feels doing things out of the ordinary is what keeps the relationship away from the ‘for granted’ attitude. "There is always that initial excitement to woo your partner and cement your relationship. But after one is into a relationship, the security factor sets in and one stops making the effort to keep it going which sets the boredom and casual approach," she shares.

So be it the young love or a matured couple, a celebrity or a corporate professional, today’s lifestyle makes it difficult for a couple to enjoy that special evening or that surprise dinner served by your spouse. But as they say, love conquers all, and an extra dime of effort can make the bond even stronger.

Take good care of your hands and feet especially.

Moisturising your hands and feet at least twice a day is very important. Also use gloves while you are doing daily house chores.

Avoid using harsh soaps, shampoos and shower gels as they dry the skin tone.

Do away with drying products and use mild ones which allow moisture to retain in the skin.

Your skin does not depend only on the external applications but also on the intake of food; it is important to have nutritious food and keep yourself well hydrated by having lots of water and fruits to maintain your moisture balance.

Use sunscreen too as it is not just for summer; winter sun along with its slow glare can equally damage your skin.

Use a home-made mask for skin during this winter such as - Mix yogurt with ground almonds and coconut milk, then apply the mixture on your face.

Wash it off with lukewarm water, after 20 minutes.

Blend avocado with a few drops of coconut oil and apply the mixture all over your body. Wash it off after 20 minutes and then take a bath.

A good natural oil based lip balm or even applying a few drops of coconut oil will be an effective cover over your lips against the cold weather.

A unique ‘type’ of painting!

I

t might look like just an old typewriter, but Washington-based artist Tyree Callahan has actually converted this antique 1937 Underwood Standard typewriter into an art instrument that makes beautiful paintings.

Callahan replaced the ink pads of the typewriter with coloured paint pads and the letters with colour markers, to create a painting machine he calls a Chromatic Typewriter.

So instead of creating paintings with brushes, he types them with his unique typewriter.

While it would take a while getting used to, and although it will probably never yield the detailed After all, artists like Keira Rathbone use conventional typewriters to create exceptional works of art using just letters and symbols.

Artists have used stranger things to unleash their painting talent (remote-controlled cars or sometimes even their lips!). Tyree Callahan submitted his original creation to the 2012 West Prize competition, an annual art prize which is determined by a popular vote.

TO HELP GIVE MUSIC THAT EXTRA ‘PUNCH’!

T

he students of the Eastman School of Music, Rochester, New York , learn more than just music. In groups, they are asked to attend classes of a highly different nature. Classes that test and train them physically, and teach them the basic skills of boxing.

While it’s perfectly understandable that a musician may enjoy a little physical exercise, the students have taken up boxing not for exercise but to improve their music skills.

It all started when their professor, James VanDenmark, took up the sport himself. The world renowned double bass soloist says the classes had a remarkable difference upon his skills on the instrument.

He reports better bow control,

more confidence, stamina and energy. Intrigued, VanDenmark began to send a few of his female students to learn boxing, along with some conditioning and strength building. When they displayed the same results, he made this a regular feature.

He now sends them in groups to Rochester gym ROC Boxing & Fitness to learn boxing basics and practice strength training. The students, he says, are now able to produce a bigger and more focused sound from the big instrument. According to VanDenmark, Boxing is the most rhythmic of sports, and many of the basic gestures of boxing have an immediate relationship to string playing.

Since punching involves a very rhythmic use of the hands and

arms, the effect is immediate.

The speed bag used in boxing improves internal rhythm and hand-eye coordination. He says that since boxing provides upper body strength, leg strength and also a cardiovascular workout, there is a huge improvement in playing a large upright brass.

The students seem happy too.

Danny Ziemann, a 21-year-old senior, says, “I love having this one hour where I don’t have to worry about anything except punching stuff.”

Who would have thought that playing a violent sport and a music instrument could be linked? Looks like professional boxers have a new hobby awaiting them post retirement!

Molly started wondering as to what happens when an artist leaves their studio, moves out of their cliches, and their comfort zone and draws beyond the limits of their endurance.

She also stated that she wanted “to see what tarts and squidbeasts look like frollicking on a massive scale”.

She decided to spend her 28th birthday locked in an East Village room, covering the walls with art.

She began by launching

a Kickstarter fundraising campaign to help cover the cost of her daring project, including the photographic talents of Steve Prue.

In September 2011 she did just what she promised, and spent five days locked in a room making art.

Luckily, she wasn’t alone, as she brought along Keith Jenson from Brainwomb to document the experience.

She also carried along a “cast of muses, musicians and miscreants” to keep her company.

She managed to create 270 feet of art while locked in the room, all of which was presold to her Kickstarter backers.

Brave New World

From the world of science & research

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 10, 2011

New paper calls for strong steps to tackle antibiotic resistance S hahriar Mobashery, a University of Notre Dame researcher, is one of the co-authors of a new paper by a group of the world’s leading scientists in academia and industry that calls for strong steps to be taken to control the global crisis of antibiotic resistance in bacteria. The group issued a priority list of steps that need to be taken on a global scale to resolve the crisis.

The paper is an outgrowth of a meeting the group held at the Banbury Conference Centre in Cold Spring Harbor, NY, to discuss the crisis and it appears in the journal Nature Reviews Microbiology.

The group notes that in Europe in 2007, the number of infections by multidrugresistant bacteria was 400,000 and there were 25,000 attributable deaths.

In the United States alone, antibiotic-resistant infections are responsible for $20 billion per year in excess health care costs, $35 billion per year in societal costs and 8 million additional hospital stays per year.

The problem of resistance is compounded by the fact that we live in a global economy, resulting in a worldwide spread of antibiotic-resistant genes.

The Banbury group recommends that research priorities be established to control resistance.

They point out that additional basic information about resistance is required to address the crisis.

“Increasing lines of evidence identify the principal reservoirs of resistance genes to be bacteria that live in and on humans and animals, as well as those found in the environment (in soil, water and so on),” the paper notes.

“However, there is insufficient information about the condi-

tions and factors that lead to the mobilisation, selection and movement of these bacteria into and between animal and human populations.”

The report also calls for increased international funding to enable scientists to track new antibiotic-resistance threats worldwide, in a manner similar to how the World Health Organisation and other agencies track influenza out breaks.

The paper points out that antibiotic resistance is lifethreatening in the same sense as cancer, both in the number of cases and the likely outcome. It therefore calls for a public education campaign about bacteria and antibiotic resistance similar to those that have been mounted for cancer awareness.

The study also notes that in some parts of the world, population density, the uncontrolled

use of antibiotics, a lack of both a clean water supply and proper treatment for sewage and industrial effluent create the conditions that disseminate and select resistant bacteria.

“Local governments must be encouraged and supported to invest in better sanitation infrastructure and tighter prescription regulations to control the rapid evolution of resistance,” the scientists said. “This is a worldwide, multinational problem and must be treated as such.”

The group also notes that it is essential to develop a continuous supply of new antibiotics that are not affected by known or existing mechanisms of resistance. The economics of pharmaceutical drug development offer little incentive for companies to develop new antibiotics, since the drugs are used on an episodic, rather than continual, basis. New public-private partnerships must develop to overcome the economics barriers facing the development o new antibiotics.

The Banbury participants also call for better control of antibiotic use, repurposing of old antibiotics to battle resistance and new alternatives to antibiotics.

The group’s paper concludes, “The cost of the undertaking that we propose will be infinitesimally small in comparison to the economic and human cost of doing nothing.”

Humble leaders are more effective and better liked

“L

eaders of all ranks view admitting mistakes, spotlighting follower strengths and modelling teachability as being at the core of humble leadership,” says Bradley Owens, assistant professor of organisation and human resources at the University at Buffalo School of Management.

“And they view these three behaviours as being powerful predictors of their own as well as the organisation’s growth.”

Owens and co-author David Hekman, assistant professor of management at the Lubar School of Business, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, asked 16 CEOs, 20 mid-level leaders and 19 front-line leaders to describe in detail how humble leaders operate in the workplace and how a humble leader behaves different-

ly than a non-humble leader.

Although the leaders were from vastly different organisations — military, manufacturing, health care, financial services, retailing and religious — they all agreed that the essence of leader humility involves modelling to followers how to grow.

“Growing and learning often involves failure and can be embarrassing,” says Owens. “But leaders who can overcome their fears and broadcast their feelings as they work through the messy internal growth process will be viewed more favourably by their followers. They also will legitimise their followers’ own growth journeys and will have higherperforming organisations.”

The researchers found that such leaders model how to be effectively human rather than super-

human and legitimise “becoming” rather than “pretending.”

But some humble leaders were more effective than others, according to the study.

Humble leaders who were young, non-white or female

were reported as having to constantly prove their competence to followers, making their humble behaviours both more expected and less valued.

However, humble leaders who were experienced white males were reported as reaping large benefits from humbly admitting mistakes, praising followers and trying to learn.

In contrast, female leaders often feel they are expected to show more humility than their male counterparts, but then they have their competence called into question when they do show humility.

“Our results suggest that female leaders often experience a ‘double bind,’” Owens says.

“They are expected to be strong leaders and humble females at the same time.”

Owens and Hekman offer straightforward advice to leaders.

You can’t fake humility. You either genuinely want to grow and develop, or you don’t, and followers pick up on this.

Leaders who want to grow signal to followers that learning, growth, mistakes, uncertainty and false starts are normal and expected in the workplace, and this produces followers and entire organisations that constantly keep growing and improving.

A follow-up study that is forthcoming in Organisation Science using data from more than 700 employees and 218 leaders confirmed that leader humility is associated with more learning-oriented teams, more engaged employees and lower voluntary employee turnover.

Top 5 ways to prevent diabetes

Ranjani Rajendra ranjani.r@postnoon.com

I

ndia has been declared the diabetes capital of the world. A title that we definitely can’t be proud of. What is alarming is that the age of incidence of diabetes has come down by nearly a decade. So we have younger people falling prey to this chronic ailment. So what could be the possible implications of this for a country like ours? The young population that is grappling with the diabetes menace is unwittingly compromising on its most productive years and probably facing a reduced life expectancy.

However, while diabetes might seem threatening as there is no known cure for it (it can only be managed through medication, diet and exercise) what most people don’t realise is that it is very much preventable. Given that people with a family history of diabetes are more prone to developing it themselves means that it is all the more important for them to watch out for it and do whatever they can to prevent it.

Experts have for long been crying themselves hoarse about the need to prevent the disease and the effective ways by which it can be kept at bay. So here are some ways that you can consider trying to stay diabetes free. =Healthy diet and exercise can help prevent diabetes. “A healthy snack, by definition, is low in fat, especially trans fat, low in calories, low – cholesterol, baked rather than fried. For instance, a multi-grain snack made from oats, corn, ragi, rice, wheat and flax seeds are rich in fibre and provide wholesome nutrition,” says Dr Ritika Samaddar, chief dietician at Max Healthcare. =Burn more calories than you consume. “In addition to a good diet, a good fitness regime is also important when it comes to preventing diabetes. Since obesity and diabetes are interlinked and it can turn into a vicsious cycle it might be a good idea to try and maintain an ideal body weight,” says Hemalatha Rathi, clinical nutritionist at Soul Beauty and Wellness Centre, LLP.

=Size does matter. Sure size zero may not be in or recommended any more. But staying fit also means staying healthier. “A slim waist is not just a cosmetic vanity, it is also a sign of better health. As Indians, we have a tendency to gain weight around our midriffs and thus it’s very important to make an effort to keep the inches off. Experts suggest that women should keep their waist measurement below 80 cm (31.5 inches), and

men below 90 cm (35.5 inches),” says Dr Ritika. =Don’t starve your body, eat small frequent meals. In most Indian households people end up eating three meals a day.

And ironically breakfast is usually light, while dinner ends up being the heaviest meal of the day, when it should actually be the other way round. However, eating small and frequent meals is a good way to keep the body metabolism rate going.

Detox diets aren’t great Dr Suneetha Sapur

My friend suggested that I go on a detox diet for weight reduction but I feel weak.

Are they healthy?

There are various types of detox diets available, but to my knowledge they were never recommended by health care professionals. There are many types of detox diets like having only fruits

18

or fruit juices, or raw food items, few commercially marketed products with high fiber content, laxatives etc. But they are not recommended as they do not provide the required nutrients.

Detox diets are supposed to clean the system and remove all the toxins.

Detoxification is a normal process. The body has a defense mechanism, antioxidants, to remove these toxins. Every organ works to clean and clear itself from toxins. Detox diets may cause headaches, weakness, muscle cramps, body aches and diarrhoea. Instead eat healthy. Avoid eating too much, reduce processed food and choose fresh food instead. Wash vegetables and fruits with lukewarm, salt water to remove pesticide.

Movie-making has gone through a massive shift with vast changes in technology. But is this a good thing?

that we’ve seen tough and rugged phones in the past, but none of them are definitely as attractive as this Android-powered offering from Sony Ericsson – the Xperia active. The name alone does give some of the game away, as those who indulge in a particularly active lifestyle will definitely have moments where they might fall or stumble, or make mistakes, dropping their precious smartphone to the ground. And yes, this phone is able to remain under three feet of water for upto half an hour!

or more than 80 years, filmmakers explored every possibility of shooting a movie on film and then there was a paradigm shift with the advent of digital era.

Now, some filmmakers in the west have pushed the bar. Who would have imagined that one day a feature film will be shot using a smartphone? Yes, a smartphone. Hooman Khalili has an entire film titled Olive using a Nokia N8 and the film is getting a theatrical release later this month. It wasn’t a piece of cake as he had to hack the phone to turn off its auto-zoom and auto-focus features in order to get the technology to behave as he wanted.

Hooman is not the only filmmaker who made headlines for the use of latest gadgets for making a film.

Earlier this year, Korean filmmaker Park Chan-Wook shot a 30 minute

App of the week

short film, Paranmanjang (Night Fishing) using the iPhone 4.

In Telugu film industry, RGV holds the credit of using Steady cam for the first time in Telugu cinema for Shiva, back in 1989. Twenty two years later, he used five Canon 5D cameras to shoot an entire film Dongala Muta and it became the talk of the town.

Although the film sank without a trace at box office, RGV’s experiment proved that there is a way to keep the production costs down. “Shooting on film has already reached a saturation point. The advent of digital cameras has opened up a lot more possibilities and we are still trying to figure out how to use them efficiently.

Currently, we are learning on a trial and error basis,” says filmmaker Anand Ranga.

Technology has not just the way films are shot it has had its impact in several other crafts of film production. The advent of Avid Suit and Final cut pro (FCP) has changed the

way films are edited. “Digital technology just minimized the process to get the output, but you still have to stick to the basics of film making.

It did make film making more reachable but it has its pros and cons. Now anyone can make a film, but what people should understand is that the basics of film making will remain the same,” says Dharmendra, an editor.

In Hollywood, analysts are already predicting that shooting on film will become a passé in near future. It’s the age of digital cameras like Red One, Red Epic and HD cameras like Phantom camera. “Whether you like it or not, you can't stand against the advent of technology in any field. I feel sad that digital technology in cinema is being welcomed because it’s cheap and not for its excellence in most of the cases. One has to understand the technique before he or she applies it,” says Vijay K Chakravarthi, a cinematographer.

In this case, the Drift HD is designed to travel on the side of the head of a biker, skier, or the extreme sportsman (or woman) for action shots. It comes with a lot of straps and mounts to make this easy to happen,too. Must buy?

anka is an emotional journey of man torn between the loyalty for his mentor and the empathy he feels for a girl; a journey of a modern-day Asur (Devil) who chose to be a man.

Modern day folklore, Lanka is about love, loyalty, betrayal and justice. The film steers clear from other cinematic adaptations of Ramayana and intentionally avoids incorporating Ram as the ideal protagonist and substitutes it with Vibhishan who might not be perfect yet opposes evil. With Manoj Bajpai as Raavan, Arjan Bajwa as Vibhishan along with Tia Bajpai, the film is produced

by ASA Production and Directed by Maqbool Khan.

‘Con’ banega crorepati A charismatic fraudster, the leading man in Ladies vs Ricky Bahl has conned and scorned three beautiful ladies who are ready to settle scores

W

hoever said ‘Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned,’ knew exactly what he was talking about. In the movie, you are introduced to three such women – Dimple Chaddha, Raina Parulekar and Saira Rashid — who have been manipulated and conned by a man, who is known by different names and who has the ability to swipe women off their feet and their credit cards with his charming ways. His caller tune, a dialogue from the movie Baazigar, defines what he does best. A chance encounter is what brings these three ladies together who plan to take down the bloody Kameena as he is not so fondly called, by playing him at his own game. In order to carry out their wicked plan, they hire a young, ambitious sales girl, Ishika Desai, whose smart ways and smooth talking, is guaranteed to have Ricky coughing up every single penny.

The Band, Baaja, Baarat jodi comes together again onscreen right from the directors, the lead pair, to the music directors. What lacks in Ladies vs Ricky Bahl, is the entire plot. The screenplay is weak

with some not-so major cons bracing the story line. Habib Faisal's dialogues are interestingly funny and picky. Hats off to Parineeti Chopra whose brash tongue and endearing dialogues gets the whistles from the audience. The soundtrack by musicduo Salim-Suleiman fails to leave a lasting impression with the songs lacking in pulp and energy.

Anushka Sharma and Ranveer Singh chemistry onscreen misses the mark. Ranveer Singh's character as Ricky Bahl a.ka. the con-man is enjoyable. Parineeti Chopra however, steals the show with her energetic character and Dilli hindi. Both Dipannita Sharma as a strong and independent woman and Aditi Sharma, as the shy widow, who runs a cloth store in Lucknow, are believable but are shadowed by Parineeti's loud character. All in all it’s a good, fun weekend watch.

upermodel Kate Moss has stripped off for a shoot for the latest Pirelli calendar. She was photographed by ex-boyfriend Mario Sorrenti.

The 37year-old had dated Sorrenti in the early 1990s, and he was the man behind the famous Calvin Klein campaign that shot her to fame.

In the pair's latest snaps, Moss looks healthy as she soaks up the sun on a rock with her eyes shut. The shots for the 2012 version were taken on the French island of Corsica, reports a website.

"I met Kate when we were both at the very beginning of our careers.

Somehow we both kind of exploded into the fashion scene at a very young age. She exploded as a supermodel, and things just took off," said Sorrenti.IANS

hen he is not in prison for dealing and other criminal charges, Sam Childers (Gerard Butler) is drowning himself in drugs and alcohol. Tormented by this lifestyle but unable to change, he keeps going through this self-destructive cycle. That is until he ends up in the house of God, where finds his spiritual calling takes which him to Sudan, Africa.

In a bid to find redemption, Sam takes it upon himself to join the Liberation Army and build an orphanage in an area brutalised by a renegade militia known as the LRA. Determined to save as many as possible, he turns into a messiah who lives by the gun, in a bid to retrieve kidnapped children, restoring peace to their lives-and eventually his own. The realistic depictions of warzone brutality is not for the faint-hearted. But all in all, Machine Gun Preacher, a biopic on Sam Childers does fair justice to him.

inger Jennifer Lopez practiced a bit of “capoeira” — a type of Brazilian martial arts dancing with African roots — Thursday on the Montevideo beach along with a group of dancers who are participating in her television talent search programme.

Lopez, who in recent days was in Peru and Chile to tape other segments of the TV show, came to the Ingleses beach at midday where a stage had been set up using wooden planks laid out on the sand.

The artist, who sported sunglasses and wore her hair up, jeans and a red sleeveless T-shirt, took her shoes off as soon as she got out of her van to watch the dancers perform.

Later, after directing a few words to a television camera, she approached the group and tried her luck at doing a bit of capoeira herself. Dozens of curious onlookers and photographers followed the action from a short distance away, kept back by the security cordon set up by the singer’s team.

Lopez is on a tour through the region seeking new talent — singers, dancers, musicians and artists—with an eye toward putting them on ¡Q’Viva!

The Chosen.

JLo is producing the programme with her exhusband, salsa star Marc Anthony.

KAKURO

How to Play Kakuro Kakuro is a popular game similar to sudoku in some ways. But is also suitably different. The key question: “How do you play Kakuro?”, well here are the rules of kakuro. The answer: The kakuro grid, unlike in sudoku, can be of any size. It has rows and columns, and dark cells like in a crossword. And, just like in a crossword, some of the dark cells will contain numbers. Some cells will contain two numbers.

However, in a crossword the numbers reference clues. In a kakuro, the numbers are all you get! They denote the total of the digits in the row or column referenced by the number.

Within each collection of cells - called a run - any of the numbers 1 to 9 may be used but, like sudoku, each number may only be used once.

Let’s have an example to explain this concept more clearly: In the image above, which shows a section of a kakuro puzzle, you will see the numbers ‘26’ and ‘14’ in the top row. Look at the 14. This means that the total of the three cells underneath must sum to 14.

Therefore 9, 4, 1 could be the answer, or perhaps 7, 4, 3 and so on...

So, how do you work out the actual combination? Well, this is done through elimination and cross-referencing. For instance, as you work out the answers for other kakuro clues, this will naturally limit the valid combinations, and hence the answer for this particular run.

Note the second cell in row two - it contains two numbers, 30 and 11. The 30 refers to the vertical run underneath the number 30 and the 11 refers to the two cells to the right, horizontally, of the number 11.
