 | Seven SUNRISE September 1998 This is how Seven's iconic "Sunrise" Breakfast News programme opened in 1998. Nearly Ten years ago, Monday September 21 to be exact. It didn't have it's own theme tune at that stage and used a soft variation of the NBC theme. "Kochie" must have been on a day off as Melissa Doyle is joined by Nick McCardle. The TOP story that day.. major political unrest in Malaysia as its leader, Dr Mahartir isolates his former ally Anwar Ibrahim sparking student protests during the Commonwealth Games. Matt Carden reports on the unrest. Other stories that day included the Federal Election campaign with John Howard appealing to voters for a second term and the Duchess of York's (Sarah Ferguson) Mother dies. Can't believe that's a decade ago.. Mel looks just as fine today !! |
 | Global Report - 23-September -2008 http://www.instablogs.com/ Ehud Olmert resigns It is all too late for Ehud Olmert, finally his past has pursued him like a shadow and caught up with him. We saw a caricature in one of the newspapers: Olmert is still at his desk, standing, and Tzipi Livni is at the door and he says to her: "I'll just collect the last envelopes and I'll be out of here." Who would want to be prime minister if that is the way it ends? Sad, very insulting and disgraceful! Olmert leaves behind a dejected national mood, lack of faith in leadership, unfinished and unraveling agreements, missed opportunities, revulsion at corruption, fear of violence, crumbling government institutions, a bruised army, an undermined court and great anxiety over the future. For the first time people are asking about tomorrow and they do not have a clear answer. The successors, we concede, do not inspire faith and confidence. They seem frantic, and self absorbed. What will come tomorrow for Israel? We may not know that answer... Violent clashes erupt in Philippines Muslim radical Islamists burned down 16 homes and buildings in Maguindanao in southern Philippines to punish residents believed to be supporting the military. Residents fled as several houses, a health clinic, daycare center, and a building of a government agency advocating peace and development were destroyed after the arson attacks late Sunday by the Moro Islamic Liberation Front or MILF. Fighting continues between the MILF and government forces after last month's suspension of Malaysian-brokered peace talks. There is now a deadlock between the Philippine government and the rebels over a proposed expansion of an existing Muslim autonomous region. Nearly 200 soldiers, rebels and civilians have been killed in sporadic clashes in Maguindanao and nearby provinces since last month. Pollution raises health risks in Brazil An estimated 12 people die daily due to pollution caused by cars in Sao Paulo. That surpasses the number of deaths caused by smoking and violence. Expenses relating to health, both public and private, are increasing to offset the pulmonary and respiratory diseases directly caused by pollution. During the winter, season of short rains, the hospitals are crowded with thousands of patients, especially children, mostly affected either from respiratory problems or from eye irritation. It is sad to see that economic growth only exacerbates this kind of problem, because this could be avoided especially if the residents of Sao Paulo seek alternatives, because what more can be seen in major avenues are cars with only one passenger. The public transport should be developed more as nobody likes to burn expensive fuel and wait in the traffic. And may be people will also realize that a day without car is also possible, and far more beautiful than their routine honking bumper to bumper traffic. Till there is individualistic mentality, the situation will only continue worsening. Illegal logging in Sunderbans Bangladesh is face to face with yet another serious problem that has put its environment at risk. Rampant corruption in Bangladeshs Forest department has proved too destructive for the Sunderban forests that are becoming prey to illegal logging worth millions of dollars a year. Corruption is everywhere in the Govt. machinery and Bribery is the most evident threatening the future of our forests. Its now put biodiversity at stake as the appointment process for top-level jobs and forest chiefs is even done through an auction system in which the person who paid the biggest bribe gets the job. With this widespread corruption, Bangladesh is losing huge area of its forest each year. Particularly, it has led to sever climatic conditions and Bangladeshs poor to pay heavy prices as they constantly face heavy floods and draughts at time when the food crises are tormenting Bangladesh and the world as a whole. http://www.instablogs.com/ |
 | ISLAM AND THE FUTURE OF MONEY Pt 1-7 THE GOLD DINĀR AND SILVER DIRHAM: ISLAM AND THE FUTURE OF MONEY. A very interesting and educational lecture by A Great Islamic Scholar Imran Nazar Hosein. As one of the problems faced by many Muslim communities in the area of education are the students and their lack of interest in the material or curriculum. The fact of the matter is that many of our children are bored at weekend Islamic schools and this prevents them from properly absorbing and understanding the information being conveyed to them. This is a reality and a major problem that must be dealt with in the most sensitive way. Abu Bakr ibn Abi Maryam reported that he heard the Messenger of Allah say: A time is certainly coming over mankind in which there will be nothing (left) that will be of use (or benefit) save a Dinar (i.e., a gold coin) and a Dirham (i.e., a silver coin). [This prophecy clearly anticipates the eventual collapse of the fraudulent monetary system now functioning around the world.] (Musnad, Ahmad) It is both starnge and embarrasing that even at this late hour when enemies are about to weld into place the final iron gate of a finanacial Guantanamo, so many Muslims remain ignorant about the devilish nature of European created money in the Modern World. About Imran N Hosein: Imran Nazar Hosein is a leading International Islamic Philosopher, Scholar and author, specialising in world politics, economy, eschatology , modern socio-economic/political issues and expert on international affairs. He is best-selling author of 'Jerusalem in the Qur'an.. Imran Nazar Hosein was born in the Caribbean island of Trinidad in 1942 to parents whose ancestors had migrated from India as indentured labourers. He studied Islam, Philosophy and International Relations at several universities and institutions of higher learning. Among them are al-Azhar University in Cairo, Egypt, the Institute of International Relations of the University of the West Indies in Trinidad, the University of Karachi in Pakistan, the Aleemiyah Institute of Islamic Studies in Karachi, Pakistan, and the Graduate Institute of International Studies in Geneva, Switzerland. He worked for several years as a Foreign Service Officer in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Government of Trinidad and Tobago. He lived in New York for ten years during which time he served as the Director of Islamic Studies for the Joint Committee of Muslim Organizations of Greater New York. He lectured on Islam in several American and Canadian universities, colleges, churches, synagogues, prisons, community halls, etc. He also participated in many inter-faith dialogues with Christian and Jewish scholars while representing Islam in USA. He was the Imam, for sometime, at Masjid Dar al-Qur'an in Long Island, New York. He also led the weekly Jumu'ah prayers and delivered the sermon at the headquarters of the United Nations Organization in Manhattan, New York, once monthly for ten years continuously. He is a former Principal of the Aleemiyah Institute of Islamic Studies in Karachi, Pakistan, Director of Research of the World Muslim Congress in Karachi, Pakistan, Director of the Islamic Institute for Education and Research in Miami, Florida, and Director of D'awah for Tanzeem-e-Islami of North America. He has traveled continuously and extensively around the world on Islamic lecture-tours since graduating from the Aleemiyah Institute of Islamic Studies in 1971 at age 29. And he has also written more than a dozen books on Islam that have invariably been received with public respect. Indeed, Jerusalem in the Qur'an - An Islamic View of the Destiny of Jerusalem has become a best seller and has been translated and published in several languages. Prof. Dr. Malik Badri, Dean of the International Institute for Islamic Thought and Civilization in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, wrote the Foreword to the book. Imran's first book, entitled Islam and Buddhism in the Modern World was written when he was just 29 and still remains the only book on the subject by a Muslim scholar. That book won high praise from such eminent scholars as Vice Chancellor of University of Karachi and renowned historian, Dr. Ishtiaq Husain Quraishi, eminent Pakistani jurist and philosopher, A. K. Brohi, and eminent Muslim sociologist, Dr. Basharat Ali. Maulana Dr. Fazlur Rahman Ansari, an outstanding scholar of Islam of the modern age, wrote the Foreword to that book. Imran Hosein's three new books, published in 2007, on 'Surah al-Kahf' of the Qur'an and on the subject of 'Signs of the Last Day in the Modern Age', offer rare insights into interpretation of the Qur'an and the Hadith of Prophet Muhammad insofar as they explain the modern age. |
