Looks more like stage managed by media as well.
Reality shows have gone to ridiculous lengths in making people crazy for publicity and money and rating by TV producers.
In India, a Programme was ( is is still?) on, where for a few pieces of silver ,individuals were being asked in front of their spouses who they have slept with with out the spouse’s knowledge and other highly sensitive personal details.
Another programme in Tamil, a regional language, women are made to do dangerous acts like walkiing on a very high platform where wind is howling,lying with snakesetc. with very crude safety precautions.
Though abhorrent , these types of shows make one wish for censorship.
Better media regulates itself.

Pakistan ‘push into Taliban area’
Couple of points.
1.What exactly is the stand of the Army?
Barring some non descript spokesman,no senior Army officer, including Gen.Kayani does not seem to have uttered a word.
2.Where does ISI stand on this issue?
3.Why no statement from the highly visible PM or Zardari,Nawaz Sharief on this issue?
4.Where does Saudi Arabia stand on this issue.?
5.The civilian people,especially lawyers who made a hue and cry about the sacking of Chudhury are abnormally quiet.Why?
In my view answers to these questions shall decide who will run Pakistan.
Story.
‘The Pakistani army has said it has pushed deeper into South Waziristan as it battles to wrestle control of the region from the Taliban and al-Qaeda.’

At the moment, the situation is a stalemate as the army tries to use ground troops backed by heavy weapons and air power to push back the Taliban.
The militants have entrenched themselves in fortified positions in the areas where the military is marching in. But they are likely to resort to traditional guerrilla tactics once the army is firmly inside territory controlled by the Mehsud tribe.This is the heartland of the resistance, and it is here that the fate of the campaign will be decided.

Leave the Child Be.
‘Children should not start formal learning until they are six, a review of primary education in England says.
Instead they should continue the kind of play-based learning that features in nursery schools and reception classes, the Cambridge Primary Review says.
There is no evidence that an early introduction to formal learning has any benefit, the review says, but there are suggestions it can do some harm.’BBC 15 Oct 2009

Comment:
True.Children , who are placed in scholl,when thwy should be enjoying themselves and exploring what they like arenot best served by admitting themto school early.
Much of this has to do is parents’ unwillingness to shoulder responsibility while they they chase money for their comforts.
Let the child be.
