Hey, did I click on hot-male.com?

Cyber squatters are opening ‘spoof’ travel sites mimicking real ones

It should come as no surprise that the online travel market has become the buzzword among cyber squatters. Cyber squatters have developed phantom travel sites (similar to genuine ones) to reap benefit out of this $2 billion worth segment. Cyber squatters are developing sites that are similar to generic sites (like indiatimestravel.com for travel.indiatimes.com and mytripyatra.com for makemytrip.com and yatra.com) in order to bluff the users. They further charge an exorbitant price and also provide sub-standard packages.

The story of clones, one guesses, has just started. A spoof site, ‘webcameron.info’ was developed within two days of the launch of ‘Webcameron.org.uk’, that featured the speeches and vision statements of United Kingdom’s Conservative leaders. Even Liberal Democrat MP Mark Oaten was a victim of cyber squatting as his rival hacked his site ‘markoaten.co.uk’ and directed users to his own site, thus stealing potential voters.....continue

Government effort to tackle communalism lacks credibility

The major bone of contention in the proposed bill is section 55, which will grant the Centre a right to deploy central paramilitary forces and the army to ‘communally Government effort to tackle communalism lacks credibilitydisturbed areas’.

The government needs to realise that the need of the hour is that our laws begin to cater to domestic as well as international demands. The International Criminal Court or ICCt (India is not a member) is empowered to deal directly against the individuals found guilty of the crimes against humanity. If our government fails to devise adequate legislation to punish the guilty indulging in sectarian violence, sooner or later the ICCt will pose a challenge to our sovereignty. That would be a moment of acute and shameful embarrassment for our nation.

Indian gravy?


Compared to the IAF and the Army, Indian Navy is a little more poised. With an array of frigates, destroyers, aircraft carriers and submarines to be inducted in the next one decade, the Indian Navy would truly have a formidable blue water capability in some years to come. With three Talwar class frigates already inducted, three more on order with Russia, the production of Scorpene submarines having already started and INS Ghorshkov slated to join in 2009, and even with the purchase of amphibious ship USS Trenton, the navy truly is now getting the right kind of attention that it deserved for long.

Yet, it has is own set of problems. Its Sea King helicopters and reconnaissance fleet of Tu-142 is fast depleting. What is badly needed are the P-3C Orion type planes. INS Virat is barely surviving and the navy’s submarine capability is next to nothing when compared to that of China’s. And though its ships are being inducted with Brahmos cruise missiles, its submarine ballistic missile launch capability is severely restricted.

For a country surrounded significantly by water and ‘loving’ neighbours, India’s navy cannot remain a mish-mash bonsai. Unfortunately, the powers that may be still seem to be in a daze about these issues that could well one day have the power to destroy India...

The Gladiator’s Curse

He was considered the Sam Walton of India, and undeniably, Kishore Biyani had set the organised retail pulse racing across the nation. Pantaloon’s expansion spree had continued unabated and its financials only got better over time. But has Pantaloon miscalculated by investing more than required in an industry where previous sales forecasts are coming to naught?

The feeling is chilling... to be a gladiator, standing there all alone, under the glaring eyes of innumerable vicarious spectators, for whom the excitement is not when you kill the lions, but morbidly, when the lions devour you and feed on you after a thorough mauling. And what if you succeed in surviving? They’ll get in more lions, change the rules, and even take away your sword and armour just to be sure. That is the gladiator’s curse, and that seems to be precisely the situation that Kishore Biyani, the CEO of Future group finds himself in. An industry that was supposed to be protected till time immemorial by the government, a customer base that was supposed to grow exponentially, consumer’s purchasing power that was expected to simply rise and rise...and many more such previously taken-for-granted factors have simply fallen fl at on their faces.
