Back to reality for young Slumdog star
February 28, 2009 on 5:33 pm | In Culture | No CommentsPoor little Azharuddin Ismail. The ten year old star of the hit film Slumdog Millionaire spent a couple of weeks just recently tasting the life of glamour and five star luxury in the run up to the Oscar’s.
The child has been celebrated around the world, particularly in his home of Mumbai in India, however when the partying stopped he had to return to his less-than luxurious shack of a home in Mumbai. It has no heating, furniture or even wood flooring.
The child refused to parade for some tourists so his father gave him a savage beating – obviously the boy will be expected to become the family meal ticket now he is famous. That’s the sadness of life for children from these cultures – they seem to exist just to support their elders. It is so damn wrong.

The earth is ever evolving and we have to just accept it
February 28, 2009 on 5:25 pm | In Science Fiction Technology | No CommentsScientists predict a rise in the earths temperature of just 4C will change it drastically and possibly threaten the future of mankind. Do you not think that scientists rarely look for positive statements to make…?
The thing is in my opinion the earth is constantly changing and always will continue to do so and there is very little we can do about it.
Perhaps man believes that ice ages and the like were confined to history; I believe that this planet is ever evolving and we have as much control over its future as we did over its past. The earth will not stay forever in its present form, as convenient to humans as it would obviously be. In my opinion we are a mere dot in the evolution of earth – who knows what life form will one day replace us…?
