The royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton
-- CNN Reported --
Prince William, second in line to the British throne, elder son of heir to the throne, Prince Charles and the late Diana, Princess of Wales, will marry Kate Middleton, daughter of Michael and Carole Middleton.
The couple met while studying at St Andrews University in Scotland. Prince William proposed in October 2010 in Kenya, with his mother's diamond and sapphire engagement ring.
The ceremony
The ceremony will take place at 11 a.m. on April 29 2011 at Westminster Abbey in London, England.
It takes place at the following times around the world: 4 a.m. in Los Angeles 6 a.m. in New York 12 noon in Paris 2 p.m. in Abu Dhabi 6 p.m. in Hong Kong 8 p.m. in Sydney
The ceremony will probably last around an hour.
Getting to the church
The bride-to-be will travel to Westminster Abbey by car, rather than horse-drawn carriage as Diana, Princess of Wales did on her wedding day 30 years ago.
It's likely Kate will leave from one of the London palaces or possibly an exclusive London hotel, while Prince William will start off from Clarence House, Prince William's official residence, though these details are yet to be confirmed by the Prince's office.
The venue
Westminster Abbey is over 700 years old and holds 2,200 people. It's been the site of coronations since William I's in 1066.
Many royal weddings have taken place here, including current queen, Elizabeth II's to Prince Philip in 1947. The Abbey is considered a more modest, but fittingly grand, alternative to the larger St Paul's Cathedral.
Key players
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, will marry the couple. The Dean of Westminster will conduct the service.
The Bishop of London, Richard Chartres, will give the address. He is a family friend of the Windsors and spoke at Diana, Princess of Wales's memorial in 2007.
William has chosen his younger brother, Prince Harry, third in line to the throne, as best man. Kate's sister Philippa, often known as Pippa, will be her maid of honor.
There will be four younger bridesmaids and two younger page boys, including two of William's godchildren.
Royal procession
After the ceremony, the newlyweds will travel back to Buckingham Palace in a horse-drawn carriage procession, along a set route lined by fans and well-wishers. The route takes in some of London's most historic places: Parliament Square, Whitehall, Horse Guards Parade and The Mall.
The reception
William's grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, will host a reception at Buckingham Palace for the couple's friends and family.
It's traditional for the couple to make a public appearance on the balcony at Buckingham Palace before joining the reception. The whole world will be hoping for a romantic kiss from the newlyweds.
Later on, William's father, Prince Charles, will host a dinner for close friends and family at Buckingham Palace.
The honeymoon
Clarence House hasn't yet disclosed where the couple will honeymoon.
Once back, they will live on Anglesey, Wales, where Prince William works as a Royal Air Force search and rescue helicopter pilot.

Commentary: What to do about Salauddin Quader Chowdhury?
Awami League Government torturing citizens accused of colloboration
with Pak Army and International Tribunal is silently watching :
by David Bergman
ANYONE who attended the International Crimes Tribunal on April 19 must surely have come away with one image seared into their memory — that of Salauddin Quader Chowdhury, dressed in an all white Panjabi being carried prostrate by six police officers into the courtroom.
The Bangladesh Nationalist Party lawmaker, accused of committing international crimes during Bangladesh's war of independence in 1971, was then laid down on four chairs in the dock.
It was not a sight that one would expect to see in any court, let alone the International Crimes Tribunal.
It should simply never have been allowed to happen.
If Chowdhury was well enough to come to court but had difficulty walking or supporting himself, then the registrar should have organised a wheelchair, which it had used previously for another accused person, to bring him to the tribunal.
If he was unable to sit up or did not want to sit up he should simply never have been brought to the court.
It surely is as clear as that.
But the manner of Chowdhury's entrance is not the only issue of concern relating to the tribunal's dealings with this particular accused man.

Fate Might Not Be So Unpredictable After All - Science Daily
Good Day Brothers and Sisters, Its Thursday, 28th April 2011 Fate Might Not Be So Unpredictable After All, According To New Mathematical TheoryScienceDaily (Dec. 4, 2007) — Why does it take so long for soul mates to find each other? How does disease spread through a person's body? When will the next computer virus attack your hard-drive? Prof. Klafter and his colleagues from the University of Pierre & Marie Curie in Paris (where he has been visiting professor) are the first to have developed an analytical model that calculates the average arrival time -- the mean FPT -- of a randomly-moving object in a complex environment. Understanding how randomly-moving objects arrive at a certain destination is no secret to scientists today. But no theory, until now, could predict the time it would take for an object to move between given addresses in a complex environment, like through the human body or the World Wide Web. Previous models only explained the passage of time when the event occurred in a homogenous environment, like in a vacuum or in a glass of water. And in some instances, such as the movement of cancer cells in the human body, time is of the essence. The concept can best be understood by the question: How long will it take for a random walker to reach a certain destination? Scientists from different backgrounds have studied and researched the predictability of FPT for decades. "Our new theory is exciting because it can be applied to a wide range of concepts in nature and mathematics," explains Prof. Klafter, the Heinemann Chair of Physical Chemistry at Tel Aviv University. "It can be used by biologists, by ecologists, and even help computer scientists predict when the next big virus will hit their computer." |

Organize Your Time
"Organize your time."
Getting the most from every minute starts with better organization. This means you need to be in tune with your immediate priorities and willing to stick with them.
As you go through your day it's easy to get caught up in busy work and less important errands. Instead, draw the line. You need to stay focused on your priority tasks. If making a list helps, do it. If it means telling someone you don't have time, then don't be afraid to say it.
At the end of the day, you will have accomplished what is important to you. You won't feel rushed, worn-out or stressed. Instead you'll feel energized, productive and accomplished. Then, you can give yourself a mental pat on the back for a job well done!
Only after the last tree has been cut down, Only after the last river has been poisoned, Only after the last fish has been caught, Only then will you find money cannot be eaten.

BANGLADESH CAME INTO BEING WITH JEWISH CONNECTIONS
THE JERUSALEM POST
David Zetler.
Iwas interested in including Bangladesh in our tour to Asia, but there would be problems involved, the main one being that as Israelis, my wife and I were not allowed into the Muslim country. An Israeli diplomat in Asia told me about Mordecai Cohen, who grew up in what is today Bangladesh. I contacted him in Kolkata, where he now lives, and planned how to get our Bangladeshi visas using our foreign passports. An Asian Bangladeshi mission kindly granted us visas and even warned us about the traffic in Dhaka.
We arrived in Kolkata, where we were made very welcome by Mordy and Jo Cohen. Mordy's great-grandparents, Jews from Iran and Iraq, settled in East Bengal in the 1800s in what was then India. Very few Jews settled in East Bengal, as opposed to West Bengal, which had a thriving Jewish community of more than 5,000 at its peak in and around Kolkata (then Calcutta).
When the Indian subcontinent became independent from Britain in 1947, it was partitioned between India and the divided country of East and West Pakistan.

When the Indian subcontinent became independent from Britain in 1947, it was partitioned between India and the divided country of East and West Pakistan.
Altruism
    The perfect altruism of the earliest Muslim society, a unique example for later generations. By AbdurRahman Mahdi    Altruism, selfless acts done for another's benefit in spite of oneself, is a humanitarian endeavor praised by all societies. Practically every nation on earth has stories of great kings, brave warriors and noble men and women who sacrificed their material possessions, status or even themselves for some or other common good. Yet, it is without any reservation or hesitation whatsoever that we can point to the religion of Islam for the most perfect, sincere and comprehensive expression of altruism (eethaar in Islamic terminology). The Prophet Muhammad  , may the mercy and blessings of God be upon him, said in a narration, known to perhaps every devout Muslim: "None of you truly believes until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself." (Saheeh Al-Bukhari) And with that, altruism instantly becomes a condition of true faith in God, Most High. This act of faith was demonstrated so many times throughout the history of Islam, from Muhammad's( ) commission as a prophet up until our present times, that to recall even a fraction of the authentic narrations that have reached us would barely touch the surface. However, for the purpose of this discussion, we will do just that. During the great battle of Yarmuk between the fledgling Islamic state and the Roman Empire, a Companion of the Prophet, Ikrimah b. Abu Jahl, and two other noble warriors were mortally wounded. An able Muslim who was attending to the wounded offered one of the injured warriors some water, but the selfless soldier refused, insisting that one of the other fallen men be offered water first. When the water reached the second man, he too refused to drink before the thirst of the other wounded soldiers was quenched. Alas!, by the time the water had reached the third man, it was already too late: he and the other two soldiers had died. Truly these three paragons of self-sacrifice made manifest the words of their Prophet when he said: "The best charity is that given when one is in need and struggling." (Ibn Katheer) "…And they give others preference over themselves even though they were themselves in need…."(Quran 59:9) The above verse was actually revealed in connection to what was, perhaps, the single greatest act of communal altruism ever witnessed in the history of mankind: the establishment of brotherhood between the Muslim emigrants fleeing persecution in Mecca (the Muhajiroon), and their helpers who took them in Medina (the Ansaar). The Ansaar made previously untold sacrifices for their brothers in faith, despite the fact that they were themselves in great need. By their deeds, the bonds of brotherhood in the new Medinan society were strengthened and solidified in a manner not seen before or since. Arab was matched with non-Arab, freeman with former slave, Qurayshi (a member of Prophet's own tribe) with non-Qurayshi, and so on. "By no means shall you attain righteousness unless you spend of that which you love…." (Quran 3:92) As an amazing example of how this brotherhood manifested itself, we have the case of the two Companions of the Prophet: Abdur-Rahman b. Awf, who was a Muhajir, and Sa'd b. al-Rabee, an Ansari. Abdur-Rahman narrates in his own words: "When we came to Medina, the Messenger of God established bonds of brotherhood between me and Sa'd b. al-Rabee. Sa'd said: 'I am the wealthiest of the Ansar [1], so I will give you half of all my wealth. And see which of my wives you prefer, I will divorce her for you, and when she becomes lawful (as a divorcee), you can marry her.' I (Abdur-Rahman) said to him: 'I do not need that. (But tell me), is there a marketplace here where people trade?' Sa'ad said: 'There is the marketplace of Qaynuqa'… And so, the following day Abdur-Rahman went to the market to begin trading. Before long, he was once again wealthy, as he had been in Mecca, and able to marry of his own accord." (Saheeh Al-Bukhari) "And those who, before them, had homes (in Madina) and had adopted the Faith, love those who emigrate to them, and have no jealousy in their breasts for that which they have been given (from booty and the like), and they give (the emigrants) preference over themselves, even though they were themselves in need. And whomsoever are saved from the covetousness of their own souls, such are they who will be successful." (Quran 59:9) The altruism of the Medinan Muslims, praised by God in the Quran, was so great in its scope and impact that the Meccan recipients of their brothers' selflessness were worried there would be no grace left for them! The Companion, Anas b. Malik, said: "When the Prophet came to Madina, the Muhajiroon [2]came to him and said: 'O Messenger of God, we have never seen any people more generous when they have the means and more helpful when they have little, than the people among whom we have settled. They have looked after us and they have let us join them and share in all their happy occasions, to such an extent that we are afraid that they will take all the reward (from God in the Hereafter).' The Prophet said: 'Not so long as you pray for them and praise them.'" (Al-Tirmidhi) God Himself praised the Companions of Muhammad , both Muhajir and Ansar, for their great many selfless sacrifices and services in His Cause. He, the Almighty, also praised whoever would follow in their footsteps. Let us then follow them, perchance we may too be rewarded in heaven. "The foremost (in faith) from the Muhajiroon and the Ansar and those who follow them in righteousness; God is well-pleased with them and they are well-pleased with Him. He has prepared for them (the Companions and their followers in righteousness) gardens under which rivers flow to dwell therein forever - that is the supreme success." (Quran 9:100)  Footnotes: [1] The Ansar are those Muslim inhabitants of Medina who welcomed the Prophet and the Muslim Emigrants from Mecca to live amongst them. [2] The singular of which is Muhajir, or "emigrant". They are those who migrated from Mecca to Medina upon the command of Allah.

MONEY IS YOURS BUT RESOURCES BELONG TO THE SOCIETY
This is extremely touching incident that happened to a Pakistani.
MONEY IS YOURS BUT RESOURCES BELONG TO THE SOCIETY.**
*Germany is a highly industrialized country. It produces top brands like Benz, BMW, Siemens etc. The nuclear reactor pump is made in a small town in this country. In such a country, many will think its people lead a luxurious life. At least that was my impression before my study trip.
When I arrived at Hamburg , my colleagues who work in Hamburg arranged a welcome party for me in a restaurant. As we walked into the restaurant, we noticed that a lot of tables were empty. There was a table where a young couple was having their meal. There were only two dishes and two cans of beer on the table. I wondered if such simple meal could be romantic, and whether the girl will leave this stingy guy.
There were a few old ladies on another table. When a dish is served, the waiter would distribute the food for them, and they would finish every bit of the food on their plates.
We did not pay much attention to them, as we were looking forward to the dishes we ordered. As we were hungry, our local colleague ordered more food for us. As the restaurant was quiet, the food came quite fast. Since there were other activities arranged for us, we did not spend much time dining.. When we left, there was still about one third of unconsumed food on the table.
When we were leaving the restaurant, we heard someone calling us. We noticed the old ladies in the restaurant were talking about us to the restaurant owner. When they spoke to us in English, we understood that they were unhappy about us wasting so much food. We immediately felt that they were really being too busybody.
*"We paid for our food, it is none of your business how much food we left behind," my colleague Gui told the old ladies. The old ladies were furious. One of them immediately took her hand phone out and made a call to someone. After a while, a man in uniform claimed to be an officer from the Social Security organization arrived. Upon knowing what the dispute was, he issued us a 50 Euro fine. We all kept quiet. The local colleague took out a 50 Euro note and repeatedly apologized to the officer.
The officer told us in a stern voice, *
*"ORDER WHAT YOU CAN CONSUME, MONEY IS YOURS BUT RESOURCES BELONG TO THE SOCIETY. THERE ARE MANY OTHERS IN THE WORLD WHO ARE FACING SHORTAGE OF RESOURCES. YOU HAVE NO REASON TO WASTE RESOURCES.´"
Our face turned red. We all agreed with him in our hearts. The mindset of people of this rich country put all of us to shame. WE REALLY NEED TO REFLECT ON THIS. We are from country which is not very rich in resources..
To save face, we order large quantity and also waste food when we give others a treat. THIS LESSON TAUGHT US A LESSON TO THINK SERIOUSLY ABOUT CHANGING OUR BAD HABITS.
My colleague photostatted the fine ticket and gave a copy to each of us as a souvenir. All of us kept it and pasted on our wall to remind us that we shall never be wasteful.

MONEY IS YOURS BUT RESOURCES BELONG TO THE SOCIETY.**
*Germany is a highly industrialized country. It produces top brands like Benz, BMW, Siemens etc. The nuclear reactor pump is made in a small town in this country. In such a country, many will think its people lead a luxurious life. At least that was my impression before my study trip.
When I arrived at Hamburg , my colleagues who work in Hamburg arranged a welcome party for me in a restaurant. As we walked into the restaurant, we noticed that a lot of tables were empty. There was a table where a young couple was having their meal. There were only two dishes and two cans of beer on the table. I wondered if such simple meal could be romantic, and whether the girl will leave this stingy guy.
There were a few old ladies on another table. When a dish is served, the waiter would distribute the food for them, and they would finish every bit of the food on their plates.
We did not pay much attention to them, as we were looking forward to the dishes we ordered. As we were hungry, our local colleague ordered more food for us. As the restaurant was quiet, the food came quite fast. Since there were other activities arranged for us, we did not spend much time dining.. When we left, there was still about one third of unconsumed food on the table.
When we were leaving the restaurant, we heard someone calling us. We noticed the old ladies in the restaurant were talking about us to the restaurant owner. When they spoke to us in English, we understood that they were unhappy about us wasting so much food. We immediately felt that they were really being too busybody.
*"We paid for our food, it is none of your business how much food we left behind," my colleague Gui told the old ladies. The old ladies were furious. One of them immediately took her hand phone out and made a call to someone. After a while, a man in uniform claimed to be an officer from the Social Security organization arrived. Upon knowing what the dispute was, he issued us a 50 Euro fine. We all kept quiet. The local colleague took out a 50 Euro note and repeatedly apologized to the officer.
The officer told us in a stern voice, *
*"ORDER WHAT YOU CAN CONSUME, MONEY IS YOURS BUT RESOURCES BELONG TO THE SOCIETY. THERE ARE MANY OTHERS IN THE WORLD WHO ARE FACING SHORTAGE OF RESOURCES. YOU HAVE NO REASON TO WASTE RESOURCES.´"
Our face turned red. We all agreed with him in our hearts. The mindset of people of this rich country put all of us to shame. WE REALLY NEED TO REFLECT ON THIS. We are from country which is not very rich in resources..

At least we can do one thing. Take parcel for whatever we have after meal and search for a person who is in need of food. Trust me, you will find easily someone who can consume / utilize that food.
Warm personal regards

Israeli Car Ad Boasts Run Over of Kids
Israeli car ad boasts run over of kids

"We'll see who can stand against you," reads the Hebrew line to the right corner of the picture.
A new photo advertisement of a Japanese car in Israel has drawn considerable outrage for its implied promotion of running over Palestinian kids.
The commercial advertisement, published by a Subaru dealership in Israel, features the scene photographed last year, when an Israeli settler struck two Palestinian children with his car in the East al-Quds (Jerusalem) neighborhood of Silwan before speeding away, Xinhua reported on Thursday.
"We'll see who can stand against you," reads the Hebrew line to the right corner of the picture.
The October incident targeted two youngsters, aged 10 and 12, breaking the younger victim's leg.
Following the attack, the victims initially resisted to be hustled into a car, which apparently meant to take them to a hospital. Palestinian youngsters fear getting into strangers' vehicles because they have seen their friends taken away by Israeli troops posed as civilians on a regular basis.
The acting Palestinian Authority (PA) Chief Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party has said the promotion of the act of aggression "is a dirty advertisement and propaganda that reached to the status of calling for [the] killing Palestinian children by running them over."
The attacker, named David Be'eri, is the director general of Elad, a hard-line real estate development conglomerate.
