Contador battles knee injury and the Schlecks

Posted: 11 Jul 2011 08:45 AM PDT

MURAT, July 11 – Alberto Contador, nursing a troublesome knee problem, has nevertheless piled the pressure on major rivals the Schleck brothers by declaring that the duo must attack soon if they are to have any chance.

The Spaniard (picture), a three-times Tour champion, has crashed twice since the race started on July 2 but today was enjoying the first rest day of the three-week race as the Tour prepares to head towards the fearsome Pyrenees climbs.

"Yesterday, I hurt the same knee as the first time I crashed. This time it was on the internal side, though. I am a bit worried," the 28-year-old told a news conference.

Contador lies 4:07 minutes behind leader Thomas Voeckler after nine stages.

"The rest day is welcome. The doctor put a lot of ice on his knee and he spent as much time as possible with his leg lifted," his Saxo Bank team sports director Bradley McGee told Reuters.

Saxo Bank manager Bjarne Riis added: "It's normal that he's worried, but it's not very serious."

Contador, who is racing the Tour while waiting for the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) to rule on last year's failed dope test, remained "optimistic".

"I must control the pressure and transform it into motivation," he said.

Lying over a minute behind Frank and Andy Schleck of Luxembourg as well as Australian contender Cadel Evans, Contador will not ride the Pyrenean stages with all guns blazing, however.

"Evans is the best placed rider and the Schleck brothers know that there is a time trial at the end of the Tour so they are the ones who have to attack," he said.

The Tour de France could be decided one day before the Champs Elysees parade in a 42.5km time trial that should favour the Spaniard and Evans as the Schlecks have always failed to shine in efforts against the clock.

"I will, depending on my knee, choose the right moment to attack," he said.

The 10th and 11th stages will be relatively flat and should not change much in the overall standings.

The battle between the overall contenders should start on Thursday in the 12th stage with a finish in Luz Ardiden at the end of a 13.3km climb at an average gradient of 7.4 per cent. – Reuters

Golf: Open champion Oosthuizen drawn with Mickelson, Kaymer

Posted: 11 Jul 2011 06:48 AM PDT

SANDWICH, July 11 – Holder Louis Oosthuizen has been drawn to play alongside world number six Phil Mickelson and US PGA champion Martin Kaymer in the first round of the British Open, organisers announced today.

Oosthuizen (picture), Mickelson and Kaymer will tee-off at 1421 local time on Thursday. Their three-ball is one of several eye-catching groupings set for the Royal St George's course in the south east corner of England.

Rory McIlroy, the runaway winner of last month's US Open, teams up with 2002 British Open champion Ernie Els and young American prospect Rickie Fowler.

World number one Luke Donald, winner of the Scottish Open on Sunday, was drawn with his former Ryder Cup partner Sergio Garcia and Japan's Ryo Ishikawa.

Lee Westwood, ranked two in the world, will play alongside Sunday's John Deere Classic winner Steve Stricker and US Masters champion Charl Schwartzel.

Oosthuizen, a rank outsider at last year's championship, romped to a shock seven-shot victory at St Andrews to claim his first major title.

The 28-year-old South African missed the cut at last week's John Deere Classic and at the US Masters in April but will take heart from a strong showing at the US Open, having finished tied ninth at Congressional.

The 140th British Open carries a record prize fund of £5 million (RM24.15 million), with £900,000 going to the winner. – Reuters

The Hobbit, Production Video No.2 [HD] by Peter Jackson on Facebook (video screenshot). – Copyright 2011 Facebook

LOS ANGELES, July 11 – A second production video was posted by Peter Jackson on Facebook July 8, with a behind-the-scenes look before and during a break in filming.

The video opens with directions from Peter Jackson, "The sky darkens...," to signal the end of shooting. A split screen simultaneously shows Jackson's main set as well as the second unit, directed by actor Andy Serkis.

This ten-minute behind-the-scenes peek at The Hobbit includes Jackson and Serkis discussing the production process and division of the lengthy 200+ day filming schedule into three blocks to give cast and crew time off before shooting resumes September 5.

With the first part wrapped, the cast and crew describe what they'll do on the break. It also allows the director to work on post-production visual effects and script revisions.

Next, the video finds Jackson in the south of New Zealand to scout settings that depict Middle Earth to include in the second section of the film. Landcapes include swamps, mountains, rivers and great expanses with panoramic views.

The story finds the hobbit Bilbo Baggins whisked off by the wizard Gandalf to a treasure hunt with rowdy dwarves, encountering ruthless trolls, beastly orcs, gigantic spiders, hungry wolves, and a confrontation with a dragon, Smaug.

The extensive cast includes Elijah Wood (Lord of the Rings) as Frodo, Ian McKellen as Gandolf and Serkis as Gollum reprising their roles from Lord of the Rings. Other co-stars include Hugo Weaving (Transformers: Dark of the Moon), Cate Blanchett (Robin Hood), and Luke Evans (Clash of the Titans).

High drama as monkeys wed in India

Posted: 10 Jul 2011 04:24 PM PDT

TALWAS, India, July 11— The tale, set in the forests of northwestern India, had all the ingredients of a perfect Bollywood love story: emotion, celebration, star-crossed lovers and a nail-biting climax.

The only difference was that the lovers were monkeys, taking part in India's first simian wedding — with the whole unfolding drama a classic clash between age-old village belief and the demands of modern life sceptical of that way of thought.

Hindu belief includes worship of animals as avatars of the gods. Monkeys have an especially significant role in Hindu mythology, where they are worshipped as avatars of Hanuman, the mighty ape that aided Rama in his fight against evil.

So when plans for the wedding of "Raju" and "Chinki" were laid in the small village of Talwas, deep in the forests of Rajasthan, villagers responded with excitement.

Raju, the "groom", was famous in Banetha village, about 55km from Talwas, attracting crowds whenever he went outside. He was known for eating, sleeping and smoking cigarettes with his owner, Ramesh Saini, who treated him like a son.

"I want to enjoy the feelings of a son's marriage through Raju's wedding," said Ramesh, a 38-year-old married but childless motor rickshaw driver who nursed Raju back to health after finding him unconscious three years ago.

So he was overjoyed two months ago when he met Chinki's caretaker, a priest in a nearby village, who proposed that the two monkeys be married.

"She will welcome the bride in our house in Banetha after the wedding with all rituals," said an excited Ramesh, while offering tea to Raju at a roadside tea shop.

Hundreds of invitation cards were sent out to nearby villages for the wedding, planned according to Hindu customs that include seven rounds of the sacred fire as the wedding vows are recited by a priest. A huge pre-wedding feast was planned, along with a procession with Raju on a horse.

"It's an open invitation to all the villagers," Ramesh said as he stood with Raju near a huge cooking pot to supervise. "I am expecting more than 2000 people for the feast."

But no good love story is complete without a little hiccup.

As news of the marriage spread, the state forest department officials stepped in. Since monkeys are protected in India as government property, no one can pet them, train them or — as in this case — marry them, even to a fellow monkey.

"It's illegal to marry a monkey," said forest range officer Bhavar Singh Kaviya. "Anyone found doing that or attending the marriage ceremony will be arrested."

Tensions rose in both villages after officials issued their final warning. The monkeys and their owners went into hiding.

On the day of the planned wedding, more than 200 guards poured into Talwas, where they confronted hundreds of people from nearby villages who had arrived to watch the spectacle.

"I have come all the way just to watch God's marriage and now the police are telling me to go back and stay away from the temple," said Prem Jain, an angry 72-year-old villager, after arguing with a policeman.

"They told me the monkeys have been captured. They can't capture God!"

But then came the news — the monkey couple had been secretly married off in a ceremony somewhere deep in the forest. The villagers erupted in joy and began celebrating.

Forestry officials immediately set out to look for the pair and finally found Chinki tied to a tree. She sported the vermillion mark worn by married Hindu women on their foreheads.

The officials couldn't resist congratulating Chinki and posed for pictures with her.

"She is like my daughter and I am doing the duties of a good father," said a smiling Kaviya, carrying the monkey to a jeep.

Both monkeys were captured and officials said they hoped to release them soon in nearby forests, but Ramesh was confident of their eventual return.

"I know my son Raju, with his wife Chinki, will come back home," said an emotional Ramesh, mingling with the crowd to avoid being caught. "I will have a big reception for them." — Reuters

The debacle of mishandling

Posted: 10 Jul 2011 06:09 PM PDT

JULY 11 — The dust has settled from the Bersih 2.0 march and life is now back to normal.

The much-anticipated rally took place and despite the heavy clampdown,  shutting KL-bound roads and diverting traffic, an estimated 20,000 people walked in many parts of the city to express their wish for a cleaner and more transparent election process.

With all due respect, the authorities could have handled this rally in a much more civil and humane way, since this was as an initiative by civil society ( a coalition of 62 NGOs) to ask for something which should by right should be provided without even having to ask.

While the old methods of repression and suppression were used, they have not been as effective as before. This is understandable, since the world today is a much different one from that of one or even two decades ago.

Perhaps the lessons from 308 that should have been learned and corrected by now were never really understood by the powers that be, and mistakes that were made prior to the run-up to the last election were again so glaringly repeated this time. Arrogance and double standards were some of the lessons that should have been learned well.

The perception of our law enforcement personnel was that they are still living in the 60s and 70s. In this 21st century, communist threats are still being used to justify some of the arrests just because  a Che Guevera T-shirt — which can be bought in many places — was worn.

There is a big difference between socialism and communism. This is no more the era of USSR or Mao Tse Tung's China; the former has disintegrated into smaller states and the latter is now more capitalist than communist.

Who would want to revive communism, when these two giants communist states have tacitly admitted that their ideology is no longer workable, by opening their economies and adopting some capitalist practices.

Bersih's walk  would and could  have been just like the lawyers' walk some time back in Putrajaya, if the police as well as politicians adopted the same approach; let the walk proceed under watchful eyes.

Alas, an extremist NGO has to give advice to a certain ethnic group to stock up food or face the possibility of another May 13. The tension immediately rose 10 fold after this politician uttered his  advice, and when Umno Youth too announced that they would counter-march on that day, the collective temperature rose another few degrees.

It was not helped by the announcement by the Home Minister that the civil movemnt was illegal. With the announcement came the arrest of those  wearing yellow. This act was perhaps meant to put fear into the rakyat, but in reality, it had the opposite effect of angering many ordinary people who regard this as an infringement of basic human rights. And once again the same arrogance that drove many to voting the Opposition in 308 was on display.

Amidst the rise in temperature, one sane voice was heard. It was from  none other than the beloved King, who advised that both sides should find a solution amicably. The PM also made a sane decision by offering to allow the rally to be held in a stadium.

The King's advice actually presented an opportunity for all sides to back down without losing face which is ever so important in Malaysian society.

Instead,  the famed arrogance and flip-flopping emerged again. Instead of   finding a solution, the authorities were seen  trying to create more problems.

The prime minister gave the impression he was reneging on his promise, and that was not good coming from the top leader. Understandably, there might be strong objections by his associates and advisors to use force but  having made the promise, the PM should have used exerted strong leadership to realise his promise, instead of passing the buck to the police to decide.

As a neutral observer, I see that the government's action left the group no choice but lean towards the Opposition parties. If only BN parties too participated in the organisation of this rally, the whole exercise could have been turned round to BN's favour.

But the archaic thinking and tactic of must-use-force-to-suppress did not have its intended intimidating effect. So an even "cleverer" idea of shutting down city access roads and causing inconvenience to thousands of motorists was adopted, hoping that by denying access, the rally would fail to take place.

The idea  of shutting down the city does have one effect. Shops around the city centre were closed, and even a day before the rally, some big firms and corporations let their staff home early.

But an estimated 20,000 people turned out despite shutting down bus services and roads, and closing some LRT stations. This is an estimate from foreign observers, and this is a big figure considering that all access roads to the city centre were shut down.

Contrary to what the authorities tried to portray, those who took part in the rally were multiracial; not just Christian groups as would have been the case if the allegation of Christian funding was true. In this modern era, every citizen would have noticed this fact by just following  international news channels.

In hindsight, Bersih would have been just another civil walk, had it been allowed to happen peacefully and under watch. It would not have grown so big that even my cleaning lady knows about it.

Not many, except perhaps the younger ones and the Internet savvy, would have known of its intention. But because of the mishandling, the arrogance and  the flip-flopping  displayed by the authorities, it has grown into a household name.

Datuk Ambiga, the courageous chairman of Bersih 2.0, is now a champion in the minds of many.

This debacle of mishandling, using the ideas and tactics of the last generation — mind you, this is no more the era of Mahathirism — will likely push many fence-sitters into the arms of the Opposition, and BN has only itself to blame.

Whatever advantage they have gained in the last few hard fought by-elections is now lost.

An inconvenient focus

Posted: 10 Jul 2011 05:54 PM PDT

JULY 11 — The Bersih 2.0 rally on Saturday where tens of thousands of Malaysians demonstrated appeared to be more spontaneous than precision planned. Although we all knew that July 9th was the day for the rally, there was hope that it would be held in a stadium and that any disruptions would be minimised. It appears that even the intercession of the King was not enough for the police to provide a proper venue for Bersih to air their grouses.

The police warned us that they were in effect "locking down" Kuala Lumpur and that anyone suspected of being involved with Bersih would be arrested. As it happened, they arrested a total of more than 1,600 Malaysians.

Tear gas and water cannons were used on the crowd and there are claims that one man lost his life because the police delayed medical attention during the rally. Because of the "lock down", millions of Malaysians were not able to carry out their usual routine on Saturday.

Many were anxiously seeking news from the media, both alternative and mainstream, as to actually what was going on in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. The world's media too did not disappoint and news of the demonstration was carried by CNN, the BBC and Al-Jazeera.

The alternative media too were giving updates every few minutes and their coverage made you feel that you were actually there minus the tear gas, water cannons and arrests, of course.

The Malaysian mainstream media also did their propaganda job by interviewing those whose business were adversely affected by the rally. The slant, of course, was to blame Bersih 2.0 for this.

It is strange that the mainstream Malaysian media didn't blame the police instead. After all, it was the police roadblocks, shutting down and diverting of public transport, random stops and searches that basically "locked down" Kuala Lumpur.

Bersih's leader Datuk Ambiga Sreenevasan claimed the rally was a success as it had focussed many Malaysian minds on the issues that were brought up by the group. She may be right, to some extent, that many support Bersih's eight demands for reforms but to my mind the issues are far more fundamental.

It is a question of freedom of expression and our rights as enshrined in our Constitution as well as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 1946 to which our nation is a party to.

The government claims that Bersih 2.0 has been hijacked by the Opposition. I agree. But so what? Does that entitle the police to "lock down" our city? Does that allow the police to arrest fellow Malaysians for having a yellow T-shirt or for carrying salt? Does that allow the police to fire tear gas and water cannons at a peaceful crowd walking through the streets of Kuala Lumpur?

The police claim that the demonstration would have been much larger had they not instituted such a draconian shut down. Don't they realise that all that they did was subvert the fundamental rights of all Malaysians to express their views? All those people who would have come to the rally did not do so because of what the police did. Is that a victory for the police or a defeat for a more free and democratic Malaysia, or perhaps both?

The police have a hierarchical structure where the officers are supposed to follow orders. They are trained like that and to be fair, that applies to all the security forces throughout the world. Nevertheless as with most police forces throughout the world, they see themselves as the "good guys" and a force of good in society. The problem that arises is that when you have peaceful protestors who are also "good people" on the other side.

To some extent even the police recognised this and that is why they prepared food, drink and other facilities for those they arrested during the rally. In some places. they even shook hands with the protestors after the rally.

While the police had their orders, they bore no ill-will towards the protestors and to some extent the protestors also knew they were under orders. If there is blame to be laid on this protest, then it most likely resides with the people who gave the "orders."

While many of us were in a city under "lock down", we had pause to consider more deeply the events happening around us. Though it has tested our patience, some good did come out of it. The King had acted with great equanimity to try to calm things down. The Bersih 2.0 protestors were not afraid to express their feelings and did so peacefully. The police while they did act high-handedly tried to redeem themselves by treating most of those arrested reasonably and releasing them quickly. The likes of Perkasa were nowhere to be seen.

While the game continues, I can't help but think that through all the troubles that we faced on July 9th, we are more united as Malaysians today than whatever was envisaged under Prime Minister Najib Razak's 1 Malaysia. It would indeed be ironic if the slogan succeeds but the man does not.

Sarbaini nafi terima rasuah, kata pegawai SPRM

Posted: 11 Jul 2011 02:27 AM PDT

KUALA LUMPUR, 11 Julai — Allahyarham Ahmad Sarbaini Mohamed menafikan menerima rasuah daripada seorang ejen pengangkutan ketika disoal siasat pada 2 April lalu, kata seorang pegawai Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) dalam inkues kematian pegawai Kastam itu hari ini.

Bagaimanapun seorang saksi, Ketua Unit Penyiasatan SPRM Kuala Lumpur Mohd Fauzi Husin dalam keterangan sebelum ini berkata Sarbaini (gambar) mengakui menerima rasuah dua hari selepas itu.

Fauzi juga berkata, Sarbaini telah datang ke pejabat SPRM, Jalan Cochrane pada 6 April untuk menarik balik pengakuan itu.

Sarbaini ditemui mati beberapa jam kemudian di gelanggang badminton tingkat satu pejabat SPRM dipercayai terjatuh dari tingkap bilik pantri di tingkat tiga.

Penolong Penguasa SPRM Kuala Lumpur Mohd Rosly Mohd Saupi memberitahu mahkamah koroner bahawa Sarbaini menafikan menerima rasuah pada 2 April daripada seorang pegawai dari Top Mark Freight & Shipping Sdn Bhd.

"Dia berkata sepanjang bekerja dengan Firdaus, dia (Firdaus) tidak pernah memberi rasuah semasa menjalankan tugas sebagai pegawai Kastam," katanya.

Rosly, yang mengambil keterangan pertama Sarbaini pada 2 April tidak menyebut nama penuh Firdaus.

Pegawai SPRM berumur 28 tahun itu juga berkata, Sarbaini tidak boleh menjelaskan mengenai deposit RM22, 970 dan wang keluar RM21,994 dari akaun banknya pada 20 Februari 2010.

"Dia kata tidak pasti dan kata akan tanya kepada bank. Dia memberikan kerjasama, tiada masalah," kata Rosly.

Sebelum ini, Fauzi dalam keterangannya berkata, Sarbaini mengakui kepada SPRM pada 4 April lalu telah menerima rasuah antara RM50 dan RM100 sebulan daripada pegawai Schenker Logistist (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd Wan Zainal Wan Abidin, serta RM30 dan RM200 sebulan dari pegawai Top Mark yang dikenali sebagai Ah Seng.

Wan Zainal dalam keterangan Jumaat lalu bagaimanapun menafikan memberi rasuah kepada Sarbaini.

Ejen pengangkutan itu menambah, Sarbaini memberitahunya bahawa dia dimaklumkan SPRM telah menerima rasuah.

Ketika ditanya mengapa dia lakukan, Wan Zainal menarik balik keterangan itu dan memberitahu tidak ingat perkara itu.

Wan Zainal juga berkata, Sarbaini mungkin dipaksa mengaku berbuat demikian ekoran penangkapan beberapa pegawai Kastam yang terlibat dalam rasuah bernilai berbilion ringgit.

Bersih 2.0: Pemuda PAS buat laporan di Suhakam esok

Posted: 11 Jul 2011 02:18 AM PDT

KUALA LUMPUR, 11 Julai – Dewan Pemuda PAS pusat akan membuat satu laporan rasmi di Suhakam esok berhubung tindakan keras pihak berkuasa semasa menangani peserta Himpunan Bersih 2.0 kelmarin.

Ketuanya Nasrudin Hasan berkata, pihaknya mempunyai banyak bukti berhubung kekerasan yang digunakan pihak berkuasa semasa perhimpunan itu.

"Isunya sekarang adalah mengenai keganasan pihak polis atau pihak keselamatan yang bertindakn ganas ke atas peserta Himpunan Bersih 2.0.

"Dan, kita mempunyai banyak bukti sama ada melalui gambar atau rakaman video yang secara jelas memaparkan tindakan ganas polis ke atas peserta yang ketika itu dalam keadaan tidak bersenjata dan tidak mencetuskan provokasi tetapi mereka ditindas dengan begitu kasar dan kejam oleh polis," katanya kepada The Malaysian Insider.

Kata beliau, ekoran tindakan ganas pihak keselamatan itu ramai peserta perhimpunan mengalami kecedaraan fizikal akibat diserang.

"Ada yang cedera, ada juga yang terpaksa menerima jahitan dan ada yang ditangkap oleh polis tanpa sebarang rasa belas kasihan.

"Janganlah kerana mereka (polis) mempunyai meriam air, belantan dan gas pemedih mata mereka boleh bertindak dengan sesuka hati ke atas rakyat," katanya.

Menurut Nasrudin, tindakan pihak keselamatan itu bertentangan dengan amalan demokrasi negara yang membenarkan rakyat berhimpun secara aman.

"Dalam amalan demokrasi negara rakyat mempunyai hak untuk berhimpun secara aman dan kita tidak faham mengapa polis bertindak ke atas peserta.

"Ini merupakan satu pencabulan dalam sistem demokrasi negara dan kami sekarang masih mengumpul bukti keganasan polis... kita setakat ini telah mengumpul banyak bukti," katanya.

Justeru kata beliau, pihaknya berharap agar laporan yang akan dibuat kepada Suhakam esok akan dinilai dan tindakan selanjut harus diambil.

"Kita minta Suhakam siasat perkara ini dan bawa kepada pihak berkuasa dan kita juga mahu insiden keganasan ini disiasat segera dan anggota yang terlibat juga perlu disiasat," katanya.

Bagaimanapun Menteri Dalam Negeri Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein menafikan pihak keselamatan bertindak ganas sewaktu perhimpunan itu.
