- How ISIL's attacks on Saudi Arabia aimed at Undermining the Monarchy's Legitimacy
Prof. Cole, You write that, "The charge sometimes made that Daesh or ISIL is just a form of Wahhabism is incorrect..." However, according to William McCants, "When [ISIS] needed textbooks to distribute to schoolchildren in Raqqa, it printed out copies of Saudi textbooks found online. Unsurprisingly then, most of the Islamic State's hudud penalties are identical to penalties for the same crimes in Saudi Arabia: death for blasphemy, homosexual acts, treason, and murder; death by stoning for adultery; one hundred lashes for sex out of wedlock; amputation of a hand for stealing; amputation of a hand and foot for bandits who steal…But there are two ways the Islamic State distinguishes itself from Saudi Arabia, which it believes is ruled by apostates. Firstly, the State carries out its penalties in public whereas Saudi Arabia hides them because of international censure….Secondly, The Islamic State goes the extra mile in its penalties. It opts for eighty lashes for drinking and slander rather than leaving it to the judge's discretion, as in Saudi Arabia. Whereas Saudi Arabia prefers to execute people by beheading, the Islamic State does that and more, [such as] throwing people off buildings…When Muslims raise a hue and cry that [ISIS's] actions aren't Islamic, the Islamic State's jurists cite chapter and verse."
- In Fascist Turn, Thousands Demonstrate for Israeli Soldier who shot Dazed Palestinian in Head
Large elements of the Jewish Israeli society likewise celebrated Baruch Goldstein and Yigal Amir. The racism is so deep it can only be seen by fewer and fewer. Where are the voices like Yeshayahu Leibowitz's? This prophet predicted that Occupation would lead to a culture of racism that would consume Jewish society. He recognized that "Jewish-Israeli" values were becoming like those of fascist states. In 2009 two rabbis..., Yitzhak Shapira and Yosef Elitzur, published a book called "The Law of the King." "The book's repeated themes are that a Jew's life is worth more than a gentile's, and that for a Jew to kill a gentile is a lesser sin than killing another Jew….Indeed, they claim, there is even a basis in religious law to argue that [gentile] children may be intentionally targeted, 'if it is clear that they will grow up to harm us [Jews].'" link to detailedpoliticalquizzes.wordpress.com
- Israeli security agency exposes 'Jewish terror ring'
The "Israeli government does not support or condone settler violence, but it has failed to adequately combat it. Soldiers have been known to look on as violence occurs, and they sometimes do not aggressively seek the perpetrators after the fact." In contrast, "when Palestinians attack Jews, the Israeli army often puts entire villages under curfew, and perpetrators sometimes have their homes bulldozed."
In recent years, "the extreme right wing has made inroads even into Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's own party, the Likud, making any opposition to settlement activity a risk for more mainstream Likud politicians." Settler terrorism "is undoubtedly working. It has made it more difficult for the IDF to govern the West Bank and fractured the settler movement, weakening the influence of the more moderate elements that would accept the legitimacy of the Israeli state even if it committed to another withdrawal." (Note: The article refers to "settlements" and "illegal settlements". All the settlements are illegal in international law; some of the settlements are illegal even according to Israel's laws.) link to detailedpoliticalquizzes.wordpress.com
- Dear GOP: Top Myths about Syrian Refugees, refuted by Actual Facts
Unfortunately, when deceitful politicians have an agenda, fear normally trumps statistics. If statistics truly mattered, then the facts from this informative Terrorism Quiz would be influential: Question 20: What are the Annual Risks for an American to die from: Heart disease? Criminal homicide? Lightning strike? Terrorism?
Answer: Heart disease: 1 in 300 people in America typically die of heart disease in a given year; Criminal homicide: 1 in 18,000; Lightning strike: 1 in 3,000,000; Terrorism: 1 in 5,293,000. link to detailedpoliticalquizzes.wordpress.com
- Rubio's 7 Fallacies on the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
Ryan Lister 02/27/2016 at 9:20 am
Worth noting that many Israeli security professionals share several of your observations. The following is from Prof. Rudolph's Detailed Political Quizzes site: In fall 2014, "In what appears to be the largest-ever joint protest by senior Israeli security personnel, a group of 106 retired generals, Mossad directors and national police commissioners has signed a letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urging him to 'initiate a diplomatic process' based on a regional framework for peace with the Palestinians. Several of the signers [stated] in interviews that Israel had the strength and the means to reach a two-state solution that 'doesn't entail a security risk,' but hadn't managed to reach an agreement because of 'weak leadership.' 'We're on a steep slope toward an increasingly polarized society and moral decline, due to the need to keep millions of people under occupation on claims that are presented as security-related,' reserve Major General Eyal Ben-Reuven [said]. 'I have no doubt that the prime minister seeks Israel's welfare, but I think he suffers from some sort of political blindness that drives him to scare himself and us.'" link to detailedpoliticalquizzes.wordpress.com
- Israel's Netanyahu & Iran: Even former Intel Officials think he's Unhinged
Convincing! Thanks prof.
Final proof Netanyahu knows Iran is not an existential threat: If he genuinely believed Iran was an existential threat to Israel (and the world, no less), he would have employed serious bombing of Iran.
When Begin "genuinely" feared the existential threat of Iraq, he had the Israeli Air Force completely destroy the Osirak nuclear reactor in 1981. Begin was a serious man who deserved to be taken seriously. (He was wrong about Iraq, and a violent terrorist in the pre-state period, but he did not mess around with existential threats.)
Netanyahu is the culmination of a grossly distorted political system. He, not Iranian leaders, requires the stick, not the carrot, to behave humanely.
- Enter the Dragon: China offers Iraq Aerial Strikes on ISIL/ Daesh
Fascinating fact from the detailedpoliticalquizzes link: "When China had to evacuate 35,000 civilians from Libya in 2011, it had to rely completely on leased ships, ferries, and civilian aircraft from neighboring countries – as it did not have the air or naval capacity to deploy that far and did not possess military base arrangements in the Mediterranean region."
- In Rebuke to Israel, French Parliament votes Resolution to Recognize Palestine
Juan, is there any meaningful push in France for serious sanctions on Israel? Does France sanction Hamas? Does France leave such decisions to the EU?
- Israel and Mississippi: Racist Plans for 2nd Class Citizens and Religious Legislation
Question 20 of the Ultra-Orthodox Quiz:
As part of the 1993 Oslo Accords, were the Palestinians required to recognize Israel as a Jewish State?
No. "[T]he Palestinians have…repeatedly recognised the State of Israel…in the 1993 Oslo Accords (which were based on an Israeli promise to establish a Palestinian state within five years — a promise now shattered) and many times since. [However, beginning in 2011,] Israeli leaders have dramatically and unilaterally moved the goal-posts [by insisting] that Palestinians must recognise Israel as a 'Jewish State'."

- Americans 64 times more likely to be Murdered than die in Terrorism
Question 20 of the "Terrorism Quiz": What are the Annual Risks for an American to die from: Heart disease? Criminal homicide? Lightning strike? Terrorism?
Answer: Heart disease: 1 in 300 people in America typically die of heart disease in a given year; Criminal homicide: 1 in 18,000; Lightning strike: 1 in 3,000,000; Terrorism: 1 in 5,293,000. (In 2012, according to the U.S. Department of State, 10 US citizens were killed as a result of terrorism; all of them were killed in Afghanistan.) link to detailedpoliticalquizzes.wordpress.com
Perhaps if Americans better understood the risk they face from terrorism — and better understood the relationship of US foreign policy and terrorism — they would fear it less and thus be less susceptible to manipulation by, for example, neoconservative chicken-hawks.
- Gaza: Why a 'Cease-Fire' is Not enough
Michael, much of what you have written is plainly wrong. Your ideas reflect limited reading. For example:
1. Israel's illegal settlements in the occupied territories have made the occupation illegal. This is not disputed.
2. Occupied Palestinians can legally resist occupation. This is not disputed. No one but you tried to interpret this to mean that terrorism is legal resistance, it isn't.
Please provide a scholarly source that justifies Israel's settlements.
Have you read "Scars of War, Wounds of Peace" by Shlomo Ben Ami or "Lords of the Land" by Zertal and Eldar or "Knowing Too Much" by Norman Finkelstein? It's time to read serious history.
Don't just read the Jerusalem Post and Dershowitz.
- Life In Gaza Explained (Video)
With respect to rockets from Gaza, we should remember the following information from before Israel broke the June 2008 ceasefire: In a "document entitled 'The Hamas terror war against Israel,' The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs provides striking visual evidence of Hamas's good faith during the lull. It reproduces two graphs drawn up by the Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center at the Israel Intelligence Heritage & Commemoration Center: [Graphs provided] The graphs show that the total number of rocket and mortar attacks shrank from 245 in June to 26 total for July through October, a reduction of 97 percent."

- The Map: A Palestinian Nation Thwarted & Speaking Truth to Power
Great post Juan! I'm glad I make an annual donation.
Just to add: Removing Arabs in some manner (land purchases, etc.) was at the heart of the Zionist project. Beginning in the 1930s Zionist leaders made preparations for a population transfer, setting up a special committee for the task. They addressed the question of whether the transfer would be forced or voluntary. In the words of Dr. Ruppin (head of the Zionists' Land Settlement Department and the foremost land expert of the Jewish Agency), "I do not believe in the transfer of an individual. I believe in the transfer of entire villages." link to detailedpoliticalquizzes.wordpress.com
- Gaza by the Numbers: Who the People are, how They got There
A fact I use to help explain the grotesque Occupation: When Israel "withdrew" from Gaza in August 2005, Jews constituted 0.6 per cent of the population (as approximately 8,000 Jewish settlers and 1.5 million Palestinians lived in Gaza); and, Israel and Jewish settlers controlled 25% of the territory, 40% of the arable land and a disproportionate share of the scarce water resources.

-For an example of the significance of norms and institutions to inequality, consider that Denmark's Gini Index was 24.7 in 1992 and 24.8 in 2011(est.) while the US's respective numbers were 43 and 47. (And, it is important to note, Denmark ranks highly on the Index of Economic Freedom.)
-In 2010, the Walton family (of Walmart fame) own more wealth ($89.5 billion) than the bottom 40 percent of America (49 million families).

- Why the US needs Electric Cars: Saudi Arabia threatens Pivot away from US
Ryan List 10/23/2013 at 9:41 am
You may want to add the following to your understanding (which I have taken from an informative quiz on Saudi Arabia that Juan posted in the past):
"The ayatollahs' [1979] revolution in Iran had been a dazzling assertion of Shia power and identity" that challenged the Saud family's legitimacy. The Saudi royals did not want to suffer the fate of the Shah. The lesson they took away was: the solution to religious upheaval was more religion.
The Saudi rulers were naturally threatened by Khomeini's doctrine of rule by the clerics (i.e. rule by Kings was unIslamic). Saudi rulers (along with most Muslims) disagree with Khomeini's radical doctrine that the ulema (religious scholars) are qualified not simply to advise the ruler, but to exercise government in their own right. The executive power held by Iran's clerics sets Iran apart from the Muslim world. Saudi leaders argue that from the first caliphs, the secular rulers have always been the executive rulers, while the job of the sheikhs and the mufti has been to give them advice.
The Iran-Iraq War of 1980-88 "was a…bloody business.…When Iran launched a successful counterassault in…[1983] against Saddam Hussein's unprovoked invasion of September 1980, the Saudis financed the Iraqi leader as a Sunni Arab 'brother.' Saddam was the best available barrier to the scary prospect of the ayatollahs taking power in Baghdad, while the United States backed the Iraqi tyrant as part of Washington's enduring attempt to gain some redress for the humiliation of the Iranian hostage crisis of 1979-81."

I'm trying to use .ant to rebuild LotusXSL in an OS390 environment. I've had several problems that probably relate to the fact that, although the .jar code is Unicode, the implementation is written in EBCDIC. My first problem is that, when I try to use the EBCDIC codepage cp1047 in the encoding attribute on the first line of build XML ant tells me that it doesn't recognize that encoding. I've tried EBCDIC (which my reading of the XML spec says should work) and it gives me the same error. What EBCDIC encoding attributes will work with ant? Regards ...

What is the best Anti-virus and firewall apps for a Win 7 PC in 2011?
What is the best Anti-virus and firewall apps for a Win 7 PC in 2011? I just purchased a new Dell PC, and I'd like to set it up with a good anti-virus and firewall program. The general consensus seems to be that McAfee and Norton are bloated, resource-hoggy, and ineffective. Google turns up plenty of free programs, but credible, CURRENT reviews are hard to find. Many of the big programs offer "security centers" - huge programs that combine anti-virus, firewall, malware removers, and phishing protection. Some of this seems necessary, others not-so-much. Also, Win 7 has a firewall built-in; since I'm not remotely a security expert - I have no idea if this is sufficient, or I need a 3rd party app on top (or instead of it). So, what's a conscientious but non-expert Windows user to do? (I know, I know - get a Mac. Which I've done - I LOVE my iMac. But I ALSO need a PC for work...)
PC death

In both cases, they seem to boot up, show the first stage of loading their respective OS, then cycle straight into a non-responsive screen with only a tiny square of light (ala the Matrix). Both machines have surge protectors and the PC had a profusion of anti-whatnot software. Any ideas?

Skip to comments.Report: NASCAR To Change Name Of Premier Racing Series Next Year
Posted on 06/20/2007 12:39:11 PM PDT by stainlessbanner
Sprint will replace Nextel as title sponsor of NASCAR's premier racing series starting in 2008, according to an ESPN.com report citing sources.
The series will be known as the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, the report said.
NASCAR declined to comment.
The move would mark the third time in four seasons that NASCAR's Cup Series changed names.
From 1972-2003, the Cup Series was sponsored by R.J. Reynolds tobacco through its Winston cigarette brand. Nextel assumed the naming rights in 2004.
"Piston Cup"?????
It's ALL about money. Racing sure isn't what it used to be!
I suppose that makes sense since Sprint bought Nextel. "Sprint" seems more fitting anyway. To me at least.
Change it back to Winston Cup. When the health-nazis and statists bitch, tell them the name refers to Churchill, not the cigarettes. It would be worth it to see them in a frothing rage.
You do realize that Sprint bought Nextel. This makes perfect sense.
You and I need to have a beer or twelve. I despise that little $#it for destroying a perfectly good sport. I can't wait till it all crashes down. This is a major pillar buckling.
Crap, I was just getting use to not saying Winston Cup after 30 years and they go and change it again....
Not to be confused with Sprint Car Racing
I'm praying for USAC to sue their a$$e$ off!
The John Edwards Flowing Locks Cup
Don't forget Junior going over to Hendrick.
There is already a sprint car series. /s
I think there is a market for stock car racing in the Southeast. I'm surprised that someone hasn't started a series, since Nascar has abandoned stock cars.
I can't wait until it becomes the NASCAR Hooter's Cup Series. Woo Hoo!
Why not go to work for the people that rules don't apply to
They really do seem to be working on getting rid of us more traditional fans.
This is the first time in years I haven't watched The Winston (yes I still call it the Winston) because they decided to show it on SPEED which my cable company doesn't carry. However I was encouraged to "call my cable company now" and tell them to charge me another $10 a month for one channel.
I'll drink to that as well! NASCAR is not racing anymore!
How about the Redneck Cup?
I cant wait until it becomes the NASCAR Hooters Cup Series. Woo Hoo!
Then, the femi-nazis would come along and complain.
How about the Preparation H-Pepto Bismol series?
Ever wonder if he and Tony George have some kind of contest going to see who can screw up a racing league the worst?
The only thing that might really make NASCAR better would be to change all their races to a series of heat races.
I propose a joint sponsorship between Hooter's and Square D.
They could call it The Car of Tomorrow Racing League.
Not sure about the rest of you, but 10-15 years ago, I would gladly buy anything with NASCAR's logo on it or anything produced by a company who sponsored some portion of the sport. Now, I will not buy anything directly tied to NASCAR. If there are two brands of something I am considering and one is the official whatever of NASCAR, I'm buying the other one. I am so sick of the COT, and the Chase, and green-white-checker, and the favoritism, and the tire rule, and the testing rule. Bring back the good old late 80's and early 90's with bias-ply tires and drivers who were all old enough to shave.
I know that I'm in the minority, but I like what Tony George did. Open-wheel racing had major, major problems under the surface and Tony George made some hard, but necessary, decisions instead of passing the buck.
I think that George was a little heavy-handed in his approach, but I think he ultimately did what he needed to do. Part of the problem, unfortunately, is people like Penske who refused to play along until it was obvious that CART (now Champ Car) didn't have a future without the 500. Folks like Penske (and now Paul Newman) who try and duke it out with the IMS are hurting open-wheel racing and further encouraging young drivers to bolt to NASCAR instead of open-wheel.
What about calling it the D-Cup then?
Why not? NASCAR has always been the Mecca of Rednecka.
Little France is running the business into the ground. The difference was Grandaddy was a working man and knew his fans.
I saw some NASCAR sponsored strawberries at the market a few months back. No lie.
THIS, my FRiends, is getting waaaaaaaaaaaay out of control . I personally think that the "Official Cheese-Filled Snack of NASCAR" is my favorite.

I am speed...
Man, don't get me started with that little punk. He knows who his sponsor is and their relationship with NASCAR. That's why he does and says whatever he wants, knowing he will have to kill someone to get suspended. It's a shame because I was a big TS fan his first few years in Cup. Since then, he has become no different than Harvick, or the Busch's. A collection of ill-mannered, belligerent twerps.
The sport was so much better back when owners generally stayed away from anyone younger than their late 20's. With the invasion of "kids", there has been an erosion of respect. Contrary to popular belief, dumping someone on the last lap just because you were close enough to ram their bumper, was once taboo. Sure Earnhardt built a reputation on it, but he was smart enough to spread it out over a career. Now, not only is it accepted, it's expected. #ell, any jacka$$ can ram the car in front of them. Real drivers pass another car without touching it.
I was never a fan of Earnhardt (when he was alive), but now I understand how important he was to the sport. He was old school and had the star power to keep NASCAR in line with its roots. It wasnt much of a problem when Bill Jr. was running things, but Brian France had to be held in check. With the loss of Dale Sr. and no leadership from Dale Jr., Brian has been able to convert the sport to what he and his California buddies think it should be. An advertising company.
Ewww. Did it come with some 90W gear oil for dippin???
Nascar is suing AT&T for $100 million. Losers
They are suing AT&T for $100 million for REBRANDING the 31 car after AT&T bought out Cingular. Then they turn around and REBRAND the series after Sprint bought out Nextel.
No way NASCAR wins the lawsuit after that.
Here's another NASCAR question. If they ever get a gay driver, could he sue for discrimination if they didn't let him sit on the pole?
Not much you and agree on but I'm with you on this one.
No problem. The COT (to me) is just a ridiculous-looking joke of a racecar. I'll admit that the wing makes up about 75% of the obnoxious value, but it's still butt-ugly overall. Not to mention the enormous amount of money teams have had to spend on the COT.
The GWC is like playing extra innings or going into overtime when there isn't even a tie in the first place. Answer this. If the GWC is such a good idea, why do they only give it one attempt before they call the race? The racing I was brought up on was based on a fixed distance and no "guarantee" of excitement. Imagine if in football, they outlawed taking a knee to run out the clock because it wasn't exciting for the fans. Hey, that's sports. Sometimes there is drama, other times not. But what Brian France is doing is more like Hollywood or pro wrestling.
The testing and tire rules are another attempt to reduce the cost of racing and increase competition. But the net result is that the teams with the most money will always be able to overcome these obstacles. (Just look at the Hendrick cars this year) The teams with less money will just fall further behind.
Thats just my take.
Okay. Thanks.
I like the look of the COT, but that is a taste issue. I thought it was supposed to SAVE the teams money? No more expensive wind tunnel time. Was that not one of the selling points?
You have a good point on the GWC and I think you've sold me...I think they're too many cautions anyway.
Can you explain the tire and testing issues to me a little more? I am not sure I even know what they are.
Sure, I'll do my best and hope they don't change again before I'm done.
The tire issue is simply the difference between buying tires and leasing tires. The current rule is based on a lease, meaning you don't leave the track on race day with any tires. You turn them back into Goodyear. The idea being you can't test if you don't have tires to test with.
The testing rule is a bit more complex and has been tweaked a little here and there over the years. This is best explained by giving you a link to a page at jayski.com, a hub of NASCAR info. See here: http://www.jayski.com/stats/testing/testing2007.htm
My point with these issues is that NASCAR creates three problems for every one they "fix". Much like government bureaucrats.
I could go on and on about the death of NASCAR but I don't want to spoil your day.

An Indian passport is a passport issued by the President of India to citizens of the Republic of India for travelling abroad. It enables the bearer to travel internationally and serves as proof of Indian citizenship as per the Passports Act (1967).
The Consular Passport & Visa (CPV) Division of the Ministry of External Affairs, functioning as the central passport organisation, is responsible for issuing Indian passports on demand to all eligible Indian citizens. Passports are issued at 37 locations across India and at 162 Indian diplomatic missions (High Commissions, embassies and consulates) abroad.[5]
In 2014, India issued more than 10 million passports, a number exceeded only by China and the US.[6] Approximately 60 million Indians hold valid passports as of November 2014[update].[7]

Types of passports[edit]
|This section needs additional citations for verification. (July 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
- Regular passport (navy blue/black cover) is issued to ordinary citizens for ordinary travel, such as for vacation, study and business trips (36 or 60 pages). It is a "Type P" passport, where P stands for personal.
- Official passport (white cover) is issued to individuals representing the Indian government on official business. It is a "Type S" passport, S standing for service.
- Diplomatic passport (maroon cover) is issued to Indian diplomats, top ranking government officials and diplomatic couriers. It is a "Type D" passport with D standing for diplomatic.
In addition, selected passport offices in India as well as overseas missions are authorised to issue regular Indo-Bangladesh passports and Indo-Sri Lankan passports to Indian nationals resident in West Bengal, the North-Eastern States, Tamil Nadu and Puducherry. These two passports respectively permit travel to Bangladesh and Sri Lanka only and are not valid for travel to other foreign countries.
Physical appearance[edit]
Contemporary ordinary Indian passports have a dark blue or deep bluish-black cover with golden coloured printing. The Emblem of India is emblazoned in the centre of the front cover. The words 'पासपोर्ट' (Hindi) and 'Passport' (English) are inscribed above the Emblem whereas 'भारत गणराज्य' (Hindi) and 'Republic of India' (English) are inscribed below the emblem. The standard passport contains 36 pages, but frequent travellers can opt for a passport containing 60 pages.
Identity Information Page[edit]
- The opening cover end contains the following information:
- Type ('P'- Stands for "Personal", 'D'- Stands for "Diplomatic", 'S'- Stands for "Service")
- Country code
- Passport number
- Surname
- Given name(s)
- Nationality
- Gender
- Date of birth
- Place of birth
- Place of issue
- Date of issue
- Date of expiry
- Photo of passport holder
- Signature of the passport holder
- The information page ends with the Machine Readable Passport Zone (MRZ).
- The closing end contains the following information:
- Name of father or legal guardian
- Name of mother
- Name of spouse
- Address
- Old passport number
- File number
Passport note[edit]
The passports contain a note from the President of India addressing the authorities of all territories:
|These are to request and require in the Name of the President of the Republic of India all those whom it may concern to allow the bearer to pass freely without let or hindrance, and to afford him or her, every assistance and protection of which he or she may stand in need.
|इसके द्वारा, भारत गणराज्य के राष्ट्रपति के नाम पर, उन सब से जिनका इस बात से सरोकार हो, यह प्रार्थना एवं अपेक्षा की जाती है कि वे वाहक को बिना रोक-टोक, आज़ादी से आने-जाने दें, और उसे हर तरह की ऐसी सहायता और सुरक्षा प्रदान करें जिसकी उसे आवश्यकता हो ।
The note bearing page is typically stamped and signed by the issuing authority in the name of the President of the Republic of India.
The text of Indian passports is printed in both Hindi and English, two of the 18 official languages of India.
Emigration check[edit]
Holders of ECR passports need a clearance called an Emigration Check from the Government of India's Protector of Emigrants when going to selected countries on a work visa. This is to prevent the exploitation of Indian workers (especially the unskilled and less-educated) when going abroad, particularly to Middle Eastern countries. ECR passport holders travelling on a tourist visa do not need a clearance; this is known as an Emigration Check Suspension.
ECNR status passports are granted to:
- Indian nationals born abroad;
- Indian nationals holding at least a matriculation certificate;
- all holders of diplomatic or official passports.
- all gazetted government servants;
- all income-tax payers (including agricultural income-tax payers) in their individual capacity;
- all graduate and professional degree holders (such as doctors, engineers, chartered accountants, scientists, lawyers, etc.);
- spouses and dependent children of category of certain holders of ECNR passports;
- seamen in possession of a CDC;
- Sea Cadets and Deck Cadets who have:
- passed their final examination on a three-year B.Sc. Nautical Sciences Course at T.S. Chanakya, Mumbai; and
- undergone three months' pre-sea training at any of the government-approved training institutes such as T.S. Chanakya, T.S. Rehman, T.S. Jawahar, MTI (SCI), or NIPM, Chennai, after production of identity cards issued by the Shipping Master at Mumbai, Kolkata, or Chennai;
- persons holding a Permanent Immigration Visa, such as visas issued by the UK, USA, or Australia;
- persons possessing a two years' diploma from any institute recognized by the National Council for Vocational Training (NCVT) or the State Council of Vocational Training (SCVT), or persons holding a three years' diploma or equivalent degree from an institution such as a polytechnic recognized by the central or a state government;
- nurses possessing qualifications recognised under the Indian Nursing Council Act, 1947;
- all persons above the age of 50 years;
- all persons who have been staying abroad for more than three years (whether in one continuous period or in aggregate), as well as their spouses;
- all children up to the age of 18 years.
In accordance with a ruling by the Ministry of External Affairs, passports issued from 2007 onwards do not have the ECNR stamp affixed; instead, a blank page 2 of the passport is deemed to have been ECNR endorsed. As a result, only ECR stamps are now affixed to Indian passports. For passports issued before January 2007, no notation in the passport means ECR. For passports issued in or after January 2007, no notation in the passport means ECNR. If Emigration Check is Required, there will be an endorsement in the passport regarding ECR.
Since 25 November 2015, Indian passports that are handwritten or with an original date of expiry extending to 20 years have not been valid under ICAO rules.[8]
With more recent Indian passports the personal particulars of the passport holder, that were hitherto printed on the inner cover page, are printed on the second page of the document.
Another added security feature in the newer non-handwritten passports is a ghost picture of the holder found on the right side of the second page.
Apart from stymieing criminals from printing fake passports, recent changes also help prevent smudging of the document because of inkjet printers.[9][10]
The price of a standard passport in India:[11]
- ₹1500- Fresh or Renew passport (36 pages, standard size) with 10 year validity.
- ₹2000 - Fresh or Renew passport (60 pages, 'jumbo' size) with 10 year validity.

New passport issuance system[edit]
In September 2007, the Indian Union cabinet approved a new passport issuance system under the Passport Seva Project. As per the project, front-end activities of passport issuance, dispatch of passports, online linking with police, and Central Printing Unit for centralised printing of passports will be put in place. The new system is trying to be 'timely, transparent, more accessible and reliable manner' for passport issuance. The applicant has to apply for fresh/reissue of passport through the Passport Seva system at one of the 77 Passport Seva Kendras operating throughout the country.
Biometric passport[edit]
India has recently initiated the first phase of biometric e-passport for Diplomatic passport holders in India and abroad. The new passports have been designed locally by the Central Passport Organisation, the India Security Press and IIT Kanpur. It contains a security chip with all personal data and digital images. In the first phase new passports will have a 64KB chip carrying a photograph of the passport holder and in subsequent phases it will have a fingerprint. The new passport has already been tested with passport readers in the United States and has 4-second response time, while the US Passport has 12-second response time. It need not be carried in a metal jacket for security reasons. It will first need to be skimmed through a readers, after which it would generate an access code which then unlocks the chip for reader access.[12]
In India the e-passport is under its first phase of deployment and is restricted to Diplomatic passport holders. On 25 June 2008 the Indian Passport Authority issued the e-passport to the then President of India, Pratibha Patil.[13] As of 2016, the Government has plans to issue e-passports to all of its citizens. Also the Government has authorized Indian Security Press to float a global three-stage tender for procurement of ICAO-compliant electronic contactless inlays along with its operating system, which is required for the manufacture of Bio metric Passports.[14] The necessary procurement have been initiated by India Security Press, Nasik by calling for Global tender for the supply of electronic contactless inlays.[15] The actual transition to the new age passport is expected to commence on the successful completion of the tendering and procurement process.[16]
Visa requirements[edit]
Visa requirements for Indian citizens are administrative entry restrictions by the authorities of other states placed on citizens of India. According to the 2016 Visa Restrictions Index, holders of an Indian passport can visit 52 countries and territories visa-free or with visa on arrival, and India is currently ranked 85th (tied with Mali and Uzbekistan) globally in terms of travel freedom.[17]
Foreign travel statistics[edit]
According to the statistics these are the numbers of Indian visitors to various countries per annum in 2015 (unless otherwise noted):

Citation: (2003) Large-Scale Association Study Confirms Genetic Complexity Underlying Type 2 Diabetes. PLoS Biol 1(1): e30. doi:10.1371/journal.pbio.0000030
Published: October 13, 2003
Copyright: © 2003 Public Library of Science. This is an open-access article distributed under the terms of the Public Library of Science Open-Access License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
A leading cause of death and disability, diabetes affects some 16 million Americans and up to 135 million people worldwide. While environmental factors such as diet and lifestyle are known to influence an individual's risk of getting adult-onset, or Type 2, diabetes, there is also a substantial inherited component, though many of the genetic pathways involved remain unidentified.
The challenge of defining these genetic pathways lies in the fact that diabetes is what is known as a "complex trait": not only is it likely that variations in many different genes or some combination of genes contribute to an increased risk, but there are probably different genes associated with diabetes in different populations. Tackling the monumental task of deciphering this genetic puzzle in the largest known study of its kind, Inês Barroso and colleagues confirm the genetic complexity of the disease and clearly demonstrate that untangling the genetics will require even larger studies.
In diabetes, defects in both the secretion and function of insulin—which is produced by the pancreas—impair the body's ability to metabolize glucose. Based on what is known about the biology of pancreatic function and diabetes, the researchers chose 71 potential suspect genes that could reasonably be expected to contribute to the disease if they malfunctioned. Some of these genes are involved in the function of pancreatic beta-cells, which secrete insulin; a second group influences the function of insulin and glucose metabolism; and a third plays a broader role in energy metabolism. The results show that none of the genes on their own had a large effect, though a number of gene variations increased risk slightly. They also suggest the existence of variations in several genes that influence the risk of Type 2 diabetes.
The dataset will be valuable for future studies of diabetes and supports the view that variation in genes affecting insulin production as well as insulin action can influence the risk of Type 2 diabetes. However, the genetic complexity of the disease—with a number of genes conveying a slightly increased risk— demands additional studies of larger populations to reliably identify the genes involved and the genetic variations that, alone or in combination, increase or lower an individual's risk of developing the disease.

Turf Melody, Maximus Ruler, Cool Bullet Vie in Saturday's Lecomte
NEW ORLEANS (Monday, January 18, 2010) – Fair Grounds' "Road to the Derby" series gets underway this weekend in New Orleans when Sugar Bowl Stakes winner Cool Bullet and local buzz horse Maximus Ruler get their stiffest tests to date – facing two stakes winners based on the East Coast as well as seven others in the Saturday's Grade III Lecomte Stakes.
As the first local Grade II Louisiana Derby prep, the $100,000 Lecomte is the centerpiece event among six stakes races Saturday. However, also highlighted is the Grade III Col. E. R. Bradley for older horses on the Stall-Wilson turf course, the $75,000 Louisiana Handicap for older horses on the main track, and the $75,000 Tiffany Lass Stakes for 3-year-old fillies as the initial leg of the series that leads to the Grade II Fair Grounds Oaks. Two $75,000 sprint stakes, the Gaudin Memorial on the main track and the Dr. Leggio Memorial on the grass, complete the stakes portion of the 13-race program.

The writer Rod Liddle has much to be happily unhappy about; he is after all a man whose anger is in tune with the distemper of the times. He believes — as do many of our countrymen and women — that this is a bad moment in our nation's history, and that things are getting worse. His book should sell.
Liddle's demonology, however, deviates — or seems to — in one key respect from that of many of those who, say, voted for Ukip in recent elections and who write critical appraisals under my columns in The Times. Where they tend to place the

Community colleges will become "community career centers" working with employers to train 2 million Americans for skilled jobs, said President Obama in the State of the Union speech, which also promised to make college affordable for middle-class families.
States cut funding for colleges and universities by 7.6 percent in 2011-12, a new study finds. The federal stimulus money ran out and state budgets couldn't make up the difference.
Also: More on free and cheap online college courses' challenge to traditional higher education. It's all about the credentials.
