News Round up

Mike Huckabee says quite proudly, He didnt major in mathematics , he majored in miracles in the college. The few absolute truths in our universe are all related to mathematics or physics. In two dimensional space dividing the circumference of a circle by its diameter gives PI. An unbelievable even miraculous number. There is a beauty and elegance to maths. There is an undiscriminating nature in maths (It doesnt matter if the measurement was done by a Hindu or a Muslim). I'd say that the fact that Mike Huckabee is quite happy that he majored in miracles instead of mathematics should automatically disqualify him , not only from politics but also from religion , he can't even see truth when its in front of his nose. Its quite nice to see that he wont be the nominee.
Speaking of which I wonder which excuse Ms Coulter will use to support McCain once the nominations are done(after she said she'd campaign for Hillary if McCain is chosen). "I was joking. Can't you recognise satire. I was misquoted. I have footnotes"?
Reading The Colorado Catholic Herald. it seems the church in colorado is concerned with a bill. Said bill would "create an unlimited statute of limitations for civil claims of sexual abuse on a child"it seems public organisations are less liable than private). Now pay attention carefully. The reason the church is concerned is because they feel this bill is "targetting churches particularly the catholic church". Draw your own conclusions.
And what is it about countries that people forget common sense? Look at
http://blogs.cricinfo.com/pakspin/archives/2008/02/a_letter_to_australians.php and specifically "Benazir Bhutto's death was a tragedy but a political assassination has no significance for Australians." Of course it does.
India's team looks good. The best bit about Ishant sharma is not that he bowls fast, but that he bowls with the same courage even after he has been hit. Something a lot of our bowlers like Harbhajan and Sreesanth arent able to do. And we lose to Sri Lanka after beating Australia, but atleast while we batted we fought and a reduced over game is always a lottery. Lets hope we qualify for the finals.
Dwain Chambers. Should he be given a second chance? One commenter did comment The problem with giving a second chance is that there will always be a first. I'm not so sure.
