eXTReMe Tracker
"Where the Mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action;
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake."

Move over Mulder & Scully.. A UFO has been sighted.

An interesting news came in Chicago Tribune where we hear about a UFO visiting O'Hare international airort. This was initially dismissed (nothing new) even though some of the observers were pilots.

But now it seems to have become hot again! The Chicgao Tribune followed up with a more philosophical article where they have hoped/believed that they were not alone.

You can google on this and find many articles on this where the ET hovers around O'Hare airport above. What has happened was that this was pushed down the priority list and no "sane" person decided to pursue it. After all, discretion is the better part of valor!

Indian workers in UK demand neo-liberal treatment...

This is an interesting battle of globalization.

On one hand the rich countries are prying open the markets of third-world countries for their products or making them a station for low cost cheap labor intensive factories.

On the other hand the invisible hand has struck. Indian migrants in UK and demanding (rightly) a "neoliberal treatment". How this will play out we are yet to see. But on thing is clear.

The concept of UK or India or the USA are mere geographical expressions...
