Anna Nicole Smith dies

Anna Nicole Smith died Thursday at a South Florida hospital after being discovered unconscious in her hotel room.

The reality TV star, Playboy Playmate and former Guess model was 39.
She checked into the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida, on Monday with her lawyer and boyfriend, Howard K. Stern. Smith's private nurse called hotel workers at 1:38 p.m. and security officials went to the room to find her dead.

Smith was known as much for her sometimes-turbulent life off-camera as she was for her tabloid celebrity. The former topless dancer in Houston made her first appearance in Playboy in 1992, was named Playmate of the Year in 1993, and appeared in Guess jeans ads and movies.
In 2002, Smith launched a reality television program, "The Anna Nicole Show," on the E! Entertainment network. At one point, it was the network's highest-rated program.
She shocked people by marrying 89-year-old Texas oil magnate Howard Marshall II, who had an estate valued at $1.6 billion. He died the next year, and Smith waged a 12-year feud with Marshall's son, E. Pierce Marshall, over the inheritance

its said that death of Smith's son, Daniel, last year left her deeply saddened, a sadness she hid from everyone. Her daughter, Dannielynn Hope, who Smith gave birth to a few days before Daniel, 20, died,is now without a mother.

Matty died for no reason except for two American pilots cowboying in the sky

L/Cpl Matty Hull, 25, was killed and four other British soldiers were injured in the incident, near Basra in southern Iraq on March 28 2003

It appears that the American pilots had no real idea where they were, and even though their controllers told them there were 'friendlies' in the vicinity, they still mistook the orange recognition flashes on the vehicles as rocket launchers. They also seemed to think that Scimitar armoured vehicles looked like flat-bed trucks.What I also heard was the shock and grief from the pilots when they realised what they had done. Sobbing could clearly be heard.

I know that in the heat of battle, things can get very confused and accidents will always happen - it is, after all, part of being human, but that being said, it was daylight and visibility was reasonable, - and at the end of the day, taking time to check once more could have meant the Corporal Matty Hull might still be alive today.Time spent in reconnaissance is seldom wasted, and in this case, can save lives

when exactly American president will understand that he has no rite to invade a country and cause so many deaths. his stubbornness has killed so many.

after the British soldier Hull Matty was killed in a so called friendly fire, the true facts were hidden for good 4 years and one of the two pilots involved in it even got promotions. it really makes me sick to know that they are refusing to let a tape be used in the inquest when its already all over the Internet.It is a simple matter and I simply fail to understand why it is proving so difficult to resolve.

At the heart of this matter is a grieving family who have already had to wait far too long for this inquest

Karamchand is back

When ‘Karamchand’ first came onto television back in the ‘80’s it made waves. Being one of India’s very first detective series it gathered a massive fan following, and went on to receive cult status. Same old Karamchand, with an all new look is back on Sony.

Some of the things that contribute to the success of the serial are brilliant performances, plots that connect with the masses and the stunning characterization chalked out by the director that make detective Karamchand and his side kick Kitty both vivid and irreplaceable. Detective Karamchand is a delightful mix of humour and logic. Unlike most other detectives, he doesn’t rely on high tech gadgets or forsenics to solve his cases.

He instead looks into his cases from a different perspective and uses methods of deduction and logic. He is aided by Kitty, a glamorous but ditsy assistant. They solve the cases based on Karamchand’s quirky deductions, and sometimes a stroke of luck as well.

An interesting facet to Karamchand’s characterization is the fact that he keeps chewing carrots all the time, especially when he’s thinking… and somewhere subtly through the plots his genius is linked with the carrots, just the way Pop –eye’s strength comes from his spinach! The talented Bollywood actor Panakj Kapur plays Karamchand and the series is directed by the veteran filmmaker Pankuj Parashar who is director of the original series too.
