be careful....

 this is a funny and tragedy news......    be careful man.....    no  mistake.....An Air India Express 737, similar to this one, was saved from crashing when co-pilot used emergency code to get back into the cockpit. An Air India Express 737, similar to this one, was saved from crashing when co-pilot used emergency code to get back into the cockpit.
The co-pilot of an Air India Express 737 sent the jetliner into a terrifying 7,000-foot plunge in May when he accidentally hit the control column while adjusting his seat, investigators report.
According to the report from India’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation, the co-pilot panicked and was unable to execute the proper procedures as the jetliner dropped from 37,000 feet at a 26-degree angle. The plane and its 113 passengers were saved when the pilot, who’d gone on a bathroom break, used an emergency code to get into the locked cockpit, jumped back into his seat and grabbed the controls to bring the plummeting plane out of its dive.
The aircraft would have broken apart if the descent had continued, the aviation agency report said. The aircraft was not damaged and no one was injured, the report said.
After the pilot, 39, regained control of the plane, he told passengers, who were in the middle of a meal when the jet plunged, that the plane had “went through an air pocket and that is why there was a rapid descent,” according to the report.
The aviation agency report concluded that the 25-year-old co-pilot had not been trained in the specific scenario the jet encountered and “probably had no clue to tackle this kind of emergency.”
Neither the pilot nor co-pilot were named in the report.
The Air India Express flight was en route from Dubai to Pune, India, on May 25 when the incident occurred.

Germany's immigration revolution

   Studies about immigration into Germany explain a lot of things about its impacts on German economy. However, there is an important point about immigration which is education  level of the immigrants. Numbers of the non native people can be a big causation to economy but ignorance in immigrants has more effect on economy then its numbers. Economy is an very important element of a country and there are a lot of influences on Economy. Immigration is a very important effect on German economy. For example, 3 million people immigrated in 40 years from Turkey to Germany and these people helped the Germany’s economic miracle but after 1990, immigrants started to became problem to Germans as indicated before in this article. Researchers talking about numbers of immigration and its influence on economy in Germany, but they are missing one important point; education level of people who are immigrants. Number of the immigrants may affect the economy but main affection caused by quality of the immigrants. Education level of the immigrants effect the economy.
  Main affection of the immigration on economy is education level of the people who immigrated to Germany. Turkish immigrants were the big portion of the immigrants and their education level help to understand main effect of the economy in positive way and negative way.  People who are educated usually look for office jobs and leadership positions. If a person doesn’t have a college education, companies can use that person in every difficult works and pay cheaper labor wages because that person doesn’t have a lot of option in work places. Labor force which came into Germany in 1950s and 1960s hadn’t good education level and it was easy to use them where ever the Germans want in cheaper wages.  If a person working too much with less money, economic miracle occurs in every country like in Germany.  For example; Turkish immigrants who came into Germany in 1950s and 1960s were uneducated people. According to statistics Turkish proportion of the literacy was quarter of the population in 1950s.
This result only for people who can write and read, and the people who had their college education was less than people who can write and read.  On the other hand, German signed agreements with countries which are Greece, Turkey, Portugal, and Yugoslavia. Why Germany didn’t go Britain or America to sign immigration agreements? They went only poor countries and they found people who had uneducated people and used in their work places. This is very obvious that low education level of the immigrants causes economic boom in Germany.

Germany's immigration revolution
Indian IT experts
Germany will rely on foreigners to fill skills shortages
By Rob Broomby in Berlin At the moment, Infopark - a youthful German internet firm employing 130 people - is turning away highly qualified job applicants. But that could soon change.
In a decade or so Germany will start to experience severe skilled labour shortages.



"It's a good idea to bring special people to us and highly qualified people. I think we will need this. Already at the moment we have here some people which are not originally from Germany - 10% or so - this percentage will become higher," says Bjorn Kunze, the firm's human resources manager. With a declining birth rate and an ageing population Germany has been forced into a radical re-think.
Recommendations
A nation which has never seen itself as an immigration country has been forced to admit that immigration may not only be good for the nation, it may even be necessary.
"An ageing and shrinking population needs goods and services and somebody has to produce the goods and has to provide the services," says Professor Rainer Muenz of the Immigration Commission, who published a recommendations on the future of immigration in Germany.

"We need immigrants, and not only as an exceptional deviation from normality but as the new normality." "This means Germany should come to terms with its demographic future and this would be to recruit attractive immigrants for permanent settlement," he says.
The commission's report recommends targeted economic migration. Would-be settlers would qualify using a points system with bonuses for their skills qualifications and their language ability.
But numbers will be modest to start with - just 40,000 to 50,000 people per year.
The chair of the commission, Professor Rita Suessmuth, says she wants a flexible system.
"Every year we are looking (at) how many have come and which are the needs. What we know already, starting with the year 2010 we need much more and when I said we recommend 50,000 we didn't count the family. Usually we count at least three persons per average," she says.
Pros and cons
The demographic time-bomb means Germany's lavish welfare state and high pensions could soon be unsustainable.


For the first time since 40 years migration is being discussed in a positive manner
Safter Cinar
It is surprising nonetheless that no one is suggesting cutting back social protection. Instead immigration is now seen as the answer.
But for Dr Achim Dercks of the association of German Chambers of Commerce, immigration has to be carefully targeted.
"If there is a problem with the labour market that we cannot find people that the companies need then that is a negative fact on the gross national product," he says.
A new wave of immigration could also change things for Germany's large Turkish community.


The unions and the entrepreneurs, they all claim that we need immigration so I think the Christian Democratic Party has to be careful that they don't isolate themselves
Marie-Louise Beck
Government Commissioner for Minority Rights
Forty years since the first guest workers arrived and many of the country's Turks still endure second class status. "For the first time since 40 years migration is being discussed in a positive manner. This will help also the people who are now living here because I think they will have some measures who will help to integrate the people to give them maybe a more equal rights," says Safter Cinar, vice-president of Germany's Turkish community.
Changing Germans
The government will publish its own proposals in September and legislation will follow soon after.
The German Government's main objective has been to keep immigration out of the next election.

Angela Merkel
Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats have yet to support the proposals
Marie-Louise Beck, the government's Commissioner for Minority Rights, says the opposition, right-wing Christian Democrats (CDU) will have to tread a careful line. "The situation really has changed. The unions and the entrepreneurs, they all claim that we need immigration so I think the Christian Democratic Party has to be careful that they don't isolate themselves."
Germany has never seen itself as a multi-cultural society and talk of integration has at times taken on an intolerant tone.
Then the message was that foreigners had to behave like Germans. But Germans themselves are now embarking on a journey which could change their society forever.


Terror Arrests in Spain and Thailand


Terrorism is a tactic. You have to show willingness to use arms to try and defeat them while showing those who are thinking of using terrorism that were not that bad and we want to help them. I personally believe it is beter to go and fight the problem sooner, rather then later (I.E: Look what hitler did, in 1933,34,35,36 and even up to 38 [a year before WWII started] France could of easily defeated Germany by itself.) There were many terrorist attacks before 9/11 (First WTC attack, Embassy bombings, the Cole bombings) were al-qaeda wasn't as mainstream as it is now and could be beaten more easily. Now they (and splinter cells) are everywhere and will be harder to beat. IMO, we should take out the Iranian leaders somehow or get them to stop supplying al-Qaeda some how. During the british hostage negotiations, i was thinking we should of just taken Ahmajid and the Ayatollah and trade them for the hostages. In the words of Roossevelt, we should speak softly and carry a big stick.

How about quran??  What this holy book says about the terrosrism. 
Most Islamic fundamentalists see west culture as a threat to the Muslim
culture. TV, the internet, movies, McDonalds, and games carry
western culture to the Islamic world ). Islamic fundamentalist called people to fight against this cultural invasion
and scared people if they follow western culture, they will lose their
religion. This fight called jihad against the west by terrorists. Jihad
became an international problem to solve because this idea influenced
most Muslims. Jihad became a common word to state terrorist violence against
civilians. Unfortunately, the real meaning of the jihad is confused
today. If a Muslim calls, he is a great supporter of the jihad; people will
assume he is a terrorist. Confused meaning of jihad became a international
icon of Muslims all around the world. If someone is looking for real solution
to the Islamic terrorism, teaching of real understanding of jihad is very
important. There are two kinds of jihad. First is called a Greater
Jihah which encourages people to fight wrong convictions, carnal desires, and
evil inclination. The other jihad is Lesser Jihad which brings others
to path of Islam. The second type of jihad is misinterpreted as using
weapons to non Muslims to convert them . Prophet Muhammad was
praying all nights, fasting mostly and helping the poor people. This was his
Greater Jihad which was educating his soul. His second Lesser Jihad was
teaching people Islam. He never used force to convert people into
Islam.
The Prophet Muhammad had wars, but these were for self defense because
nonbelievers attacked Muslim cities to kill Mohammed. He fought against
enemies but he had to follow Islamic war rules. The Koran says that a
Muslim cannot kill women, children, or elderly, destruct land and corps
in
a war . If the real meaning of the jihad is examined
correctly, it is easy to spread real the idea of the jihad. After
Muslims all around the world learn real meaning of the jihad, it will be easy
tofinish international terrorism.

MADRID — The police in Spain and Thailand arrested 10 people suspected of operating a counterfeiting network that provided fake European passports to Qaeda-linked terrorist groups in order to smooth their entry into Western countries, the Spanish Interior Ministry said Wednesday.
Seven people — six Pakistanis and one Nigerian — were arrested in Barcelona in raids late Tuesday and early Wednesday, and three more — two Pakistanis and one Thai — were arrested in Bangkok in the same period, the ministry said in a statement.
One of the Pakistanis arrested in Bangkok, a 42-year-old named Muhammad Athar Butt, known as Tony, directed the forging operation from Thailand, according to a Spanish security official. Mr. Butt was also in charge of cells in Brussels and London, the security official said, speaking on condition of anonymity about a current investigation.
The arrests struck at “an important passport operation for Al Qaeda, weakening its international counterfeiting apparatus, and therefore, its capacity to operate,” the ministry statement said, adding that the raids came after a year-and-a-half-long international investigation, which is continuing.
The police said the network was linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, the Pakistan-based terror group behind attacks in Mumbai, India, in November 2008 that killed at least 163 people. The network also provided counterfeit passports and other documents to the Tamil Tigers, the Sri Lankan separatist group defeated last year by the government after decades of war, the police said.
The terror organizations would request forged passports from the network according to nationality and age, the authorities said. Members of the network would then steal passports from tourists, mainly in Barcelona, and send them to Thailand where they were forwarded to the terror groups, they said.
The ministry statement hinted at how the plot was discovered, saying that officials had “detected the transport to Thailand of numerous passports stolen from Spain.”
The raids come at a time of heightened concern among American and European officials over a possible terrorist strike in Europe. In October, the State Department in Washington issued an alert for American travelers to Europe to be vigilant about possible attacks.
In uncovering a suspected document forging ring, the arrests in Spain and Thailand offer a window into the shadowy nexus between terrorist organizations and loose criminal networks in Europe and Asia that facilitate terrorist activities by helping provide militants with transportation, weapons or logistical support. Some terrorist groups use in-house facilitators — to raise money, for instance — while they outsource other needs for their illicit operations.
Counterterrorism specialists say that disrupting facilitators who provide militants valuable services can sharply disrupt terrorist groups, at least until they find replacements.
The police seized nine passports awaiting shipment to Thailand and another that had already been forged, along with a computer and 50 cellphones in raids on the suspects’ homes in Raval, a downtown neighborhood that is home to a large immigrant community. Spanish television showed footage of one of the arrests, with a man taken away in handcuffs at dawn by police. The man was heard repeatedly saying, “I’m not a terrorist, that is a lie.” An interior ministry official familiar with the case said further arrests could not be ruled out.
In January 2008, Spain’s military police arrested 14 men in the Raval neighborhood, part of a vast, coordinated suicide plot that officials said demonstrated the growing threat of terrorist activities migrating from Pakistan to Continental Europe.
