such as FRCA (Fiji Revenue & Customs Authority) and Investment Fijis website to the embassy website by early 2012, Mr Tuima said. Having basic information on the investment processes and investment packages offered for different sectors of the economy on the web is critical in attracting potential Chinese investors to Fiji. Part of the plan is to have bilingual simultaneous interpretation (English/Chinese) of all the information on the website and to be as informative as possible not only for the Chinese people but to all users, including our students from Fiji who are studying in China, he added.

A Fiji born 18-year-old student who allegedly made threats in a YouTube video has pleaded not guilty to the charges. Ifraaz Joseph charged with threats of harm to people and property appeared in Manukau District Court where he also lost his bid for name suppression. The threats, posted online last month included claims that explosives had been hidden in New Zealand Government buildings. The video also said the Government and media websites would be hacked. His lawyer argued for continued name suppression on the grounds that the teenagers name was very similar to other male family members, including his brother. The alleged bomb threats made is in retaliation to a new internet copyright law which makes it a criminal offence to had been downloaded without payment. Joseph will appear in court next Wednesday.

DAwn prInCEss DOCks AT suvA
Suva City was bustling with tourists with the arrival of the cruise liner Dawn Princess to the Kings Wharf. The Dawn Princess is an Australia-based cruise liner and approximately 2000 passengers arrived. Despite the rain, the tourists took time out to take a look at what Suva had to offer and many locals took advantage of this opportunity to sell their products. A local handicraft seller and tourist guide Apakuki Tabua said the sales of his items, in particular souvenirs, varied. Not many tourists bought items possibly because of having bought souvenirs at previous ports before coming to a stop in Suva, Mr Tabua said. The cruise liner is expected to visit other local ports like Savusavu, Dravuni (Kadavu) and Port Denarau in Nadi. With the cruise liner in the port, this gives the tourists a chance to come out and experience the town and seeing what Fiji has to offer.

The primary role of disaster risk reduction and disaster management is a shared responsibility that requires effective partnership between all levels of Government and other stakeholders, says the Minister for Transport & Works, Colonel Timoci Natuva. Launching the National Disaster Awareness Week and the National Disaster Management website, the minister said the adoption of a holistic and integrated whole of Government and whole of country approach together with the integration of disaster risk reduction and disaster management considerations into national policies, planning processes and decision making at all levels were critical. To complement the regional coordinated approach to disaster management, Government introduced in late 2009 the integrated approach to rural and outer island development, which essentially encourages a whole of government approach in disaster risk reduction in development planning, Colonel Natuva said. Statistics show that the country has disasters. The minister added that Government was mindful and committed to its obligations under the six thematic areas of the Hyogo Framework for Action. In commending all stakeholders and in particular the Japan International Corporation Agency (JICA) that contributed to the National Disaster Management website, Colonel Natuva said information management was a vital element of disaster risk reduction and disaster management and it was through the joint efforts of the Fijian Government and JICA that enabled the successful completion of the project. The dedication of the Disaster Awareness Week is marked by the United Nations International Day for Disaster Reduction (IDDR), which is October 13. The week forms part of the global awareness campaign of the International Strategy for Disaster Reduction System to raise awareness of disaster risk reduction, spark public interest and ultimately help prevent, reduce and minimize loss and damage from disasters, Colonel Natuva said. For Fiji the National Disaster Awareness Week, with the theme Making Cities, Towns and Communities Resilient, will be held in Labasa since activities will be focused around the main centers of the Northern Division.

byStanderS have obligation to perform cpr on heart attack victimS, phySicianS Say
Bystanders have a moral obligation to help heart attack victims, performing chest compressions even if theyve never been trained in CPR, emergency physicians say. Too many Canadians are dying because bystanders dont know what to do or fear CPR skills learned long ago are rusty, they say. In a renewed push to save lives, doctors are calling for strong inducements to give Canadians the training and willingness to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation if they witness a collapse. It must become a moral obligation and a social expectation that bystanders will perform CPR when they witness a cardiac arrest, the Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians said in a position paper released Thursday. The victims of cardiac arrest will almost certainly die if lay witnesses do not intervene, the paper says. Each year, more than 20,000 people in Canada suffer a cardiac arrest and less than 2,000 survive. But while heart attack victims are three to four times more likely to survive if they receive prompt CPR, that association says. lives a year in Canada. It is not acceptable that vast numbers of witnessed cardiac arrest victims do not receive bystander CPR, the association said. Doctors say bystanders are reluctant to get involved because they either lack the training or they fear their CPR skills are rusty, leading to hesitation and inaction. But emergency doctors say CPR should a life skill known by every Canadian. To make that happen, the doctors are targeting young people, saying CPR training should be a pre-requisite to graduate from high school. Theyre urging tax breaks for companies that provide CPR training and individuals who take it. They want a focus on senior citizens, the population most likely to witness a cardiac arrest and be in a position to respond. And they say everyone has an obligation to act, even if theyve never been trained in CPR. All Canadians should respond and provide chest compressions (with or without mouth-to-mouth ventilation) whether they are trained or not, when an adult, child or infant suddenly collapses, the paper said.
Jay Kehoe, Jamies father, took to Facebook to announce the vigil. It follows one held Sunday night for the Delview Secondary student who died in hospital after being stabbed in the neck.

What to expect at airport Security checks The bag with liquids in it needs to be in the bin; its not a bad idea to put cameras,
cell phones and other electronic devices in the bin so they dont attract extra scrutiny. Keys and change from pockets go in a small bowl; these are usually found right at the entrance to the metal detector. Food can be brought through security, as long as its not liquid, but expect it to draw extra scrutiny. Dont walk through the metal detector until all items have gone into the x-ray scanner; have boarding pass in hand to show the TSA screener. Picture IDs are not required at this point. If the machine beeps, expect to be asked to empty pockets. Being pulled into a small area for additional screening is to be expected if the alarm keeps going off. People with metal devices from surgery can set off the machine, so be sure to let the agent know. People wearing casts or splints will be pulled for extra screening; the cast and skin around it will be tested for traces of explosives. What to do if pulled for extra airport Security Screening Dont panic! Additional screening is
very common. Do whatever the TSA screener says to do; cracking jokes or being a smart one could be a very costly mistake. Expect to be asked to stand with arms straight out; the TSA screener will wave the wand over the skin or clothing. Women can asked to be checked by a female if thats more comfortable. Remember that agents are just doing their job; theyre not trying to annoy people. being comfortable With airport Security Screening Airport security checks are now a Knowing what to expect and paying attention to the carry-on rules make getting through airport security screening a breeze.

that can be tacked on to bring the price to over $60,000. What is also included in every Evoque purchased is a 4-cylinder engine under the classic clamshell bonnet. Some members of the staff on hand for the launch noted heard that their baby Range Rover was to be powered by a 4-pot. Their concerns to drive the vehicle. I was optimistic, and am very pleased with the Ford-developed, Range-Rovertweaked turbocharged 2.0L mill. With new cams, 10:1 compression and direct injection, it delivers a healthy 240hp and a 6-speed automatic Aisin transmission, the Evoque will reach 100 km/h in just over 7 seconds. Rest assured that this is and displays but a hint of lag when the throttle is mashed, but itll pull nicely to To demonstrate the worth of the Evoques Terrain Response system, the Range Rover crew took us off-roading, climbing up the Whistler-Blackcomb ski resort mountains. The Evoque proved to be well suited to tackle this course thats not open to the public. Truthfully, those that plan or expect to pursue these types of activities will be best served by the Pure or Prestige models as the aforementioned bumpers on the Dynamic were a little low for some ruts. About the Terrain Response system: Its no gimmick. Its four settings (General/Grass, Gravel, Snow/Mud&Ruts/Sand) work in different ways, either modulating the throttle, the brakes and traction controls depending on the road conditions. And on the road, the Evoque also demonstrates depth of skill. The two Evoques I tested were saddled with the optional MagneRide continuously variable magneto-rheological dampers. Their ability to provide a balance between handling and comfort is impressive. Its electronic power steerings assistance is well judged and the brakes are served by good pedal feel. I enjoyed my time at the wheel of the Evoque far more than I expected. Its nimble body and tidy dimensions will looking for a multipurpose vehicle that is heavily stylish and a pleasure to drive. The Evoque will conquer many new hearts. Range Rover expects that as much as 80% to 90% of Evoque buyers will be new to the brand. It is clear that the Evoque, in the hands of its new owners, will rarely if ever see the back roads of the backcountry, but at least theyll know that nearly nothing will stop them when roving through the rough streets of downtown
The Range Rover was created in 1970 as an alternative or hybrid vehicle that was as capable on the road as it was off. The recipe was an instant success and has worked brilliantly for the last four decades. The ingredients have changed little in that time: big, powerful engines, sophisticated 4WD systems and straight angles meeting every surface. As Range Rover faces the second decade of the 21st Century, it has decided to mix it up somewhat make that a whole heck of a lot. With evermore demanding environmental requirements and a desire and demand for dynamic styling, the lads in Gaydon, Warwickshire chiseled a shape never before considered for a Range Rover. After tumultuous relationships with BMW and Ford, Land Rover has been saved by the giant that is Tata. This Indian company has opened its mind and wallet ($11 billion great Jaguar and Land Rover makes, and has invested a considerable amount into the Evoque. I can tell you with certainty that it shows.

Whether trimmed in Pure, Prestige or Dynamic, the Evoque serves up plenty of style and stance that keeps it from feeling cheap. From where I stand, the LR4 parked next to my Evoque is like a cousin from the same mother that seems rudimentary and plain by comparison. With 19 and 20 wheels on the menu, styles available, the Evoque has got lots going for it aesthetically. If the Coup is extra rear headroom, increased versatility slightly between trims. The Dynamic wins for emotional appeal with its deeper bumpers, enhanced rear spoiler and other add-ons. On the inside, other than the various colours of hide, nothing changes that is to say, its all good. The Evoques cabin is surprisingly roomy for front passengers, good for the rear. The materials used in these hip quarters are top-notch, not far from what youd expect in a $100,000+ Range Rover. The presentation and craftsmanship are a delight and enticing. The list of standard features is extensive and includes an 8 touchscreen, a 380Watt Meridian (same make as in the McLaren MP4-12C) audio system, heated steering wheel, front seats and windshield, keyless entry and push-button start, and much more.

Lakshmi Puja
The day of Lakshmi Puja falls on the dark night of Amavasya. Lakshmi Puja is celebrated in the evening when tiny diyas of clay are lighted to drive away the shadows of evil spirits, devotional songs in praise of Goddess Lakshmi are sung and traditional sweets is offered to the Goddess. The strains of the joyous sounds of bells and drums man is invoking Goddess Laxmi in a wondrous holy pouring-in of his heart. All of a sudden that impenetrable darkness is pierced by innumerable rays of light for just a moment and the next moment a blaze of light descends down to earth from heaven as goldenfooted Deep-Lakshmi alights on earth in all her celestial glory It is believed that on this day Lakshmi loiters through the bye-lanes and showers her blessings on man for plenty and prosperity. Steps of lakshmi puja Spread a new cloth on a raised platform: Place a handful of grains in the center and, on this, place a kalash (pitcher) made of gold, silver, copper, or terracotta. Fill three-quarter of the kalash with water and place a supari, mango leaves in the kalash. Place a rice grains. Draw a lotus with turmeric powder ( haldi ) over the rice grains and place the idol of goddess Lakshmi over it, along with coins.

Invoke the river goddesses to be part of this water. invoke goddess: addressed to her. One can also recite the mantras mentioned in the Puranas close your eyes, and think of goddess Lakshmi being showered with gold coins by two elephants standing on either side of Her and chant Her name. Then offer the Place the idol of Lakshmi: Place the idol of Lakshmi in a plate and bathe it with water, panchamrit (a mixture of milk, curd, ghee honey, and sugar) and then with water containing some gold ornament or a pearl. Wipe the idol clean and place it back on the kalash. Alternately, you can just sprinkle water offerings: Offer sandal paste, saffron paste, perfume, haldi, kumkum, abeer, and gulal to the goddess. Offer a garland of cotton beads (wood apple tree). Light an incense stick and dhoop. Make an offering of sweets, coconut and fruits. Make an offering of puffed rice. Pour some puffed rice, coriander seeds, and cumin seeds over the idol. Safe where you keep money and jewelry; Worship this safe as a symbol of Lord Kuber. Aarti: Finally, perform the aarti for goddess Lakshmi. Always remember that She abhors loud noise. So the aarti should be accompanied only by a small bell. Do not clap hands, as is the practice when performing aarti for other gods. A peaceful and sublime atmosphere should prevail during the pujan. Do not light crackers while the puja is on or immediately after it.

Sonnen wants rematch with anderson Silva on the ufcs Super bowl weekend card
Chael Sonnen swore the way he called out middleweight champion Anderson Silva after a UFC 136 victory over Brian Stann wasnt premeditated. second round and happened to see Silva, his Brazilian enemy, watching from the front row. As soon as Sonnen got a microphone in front of him, he challenged Silva to a rematch of their classic UFC 117 meeting. Silva stayed seated and smiled, which was not the response Sonnen had hoped for. He didnt even stand up to accept the challenge, Sonnen said. If the roles were reversed, I would have come up over the rail and shoved that microphone up his there and was like, boo-hoo. Sonnen is back. The tame demeanor he a rare opponent he liked and respected, went away seconds after the bout ended. Sonnen said he was happy with the performance, which saw him barely get hit and make use of his world-class wrestling skills with repeated takedowns. But it was destination. Im after 12 pounds of gold, and as far as Im concerned, that belt is not worth anything more than a piece of tin when its around (Silvas) waist, Sonnen said. I am the true middleweight champion. Sonnen even made a proposition to Silva. Sonnen said he would retire if Silva beat him again. Sonnen said if he won, Silva division forever. UFC President Dana White usually shakes his head and laughs off the outrageous rhetoric Sonnen spits at this point. But White challenged one of Sonnens points just as badly. I think some of the things hes said have it wouldnt be held at the 110,000-person capacity Cowboys Stadium in Dallas. One reason is because Sonnen proposed Super Bowl weekend 2012 as the date enough time to allow Silva to recover from a shoulder injury. The annual Super Bowl show is always wouldnt change next year. He wouldnt promise to deliver the bout on the card but made it sound like a distinct possibility. Were playing for keeps this time, Sonnen said. Ive had it with this guy. this thing out once and for all. from the crowd at the Toyota Center. Like he did against Silva for four rounds before kept Stann on the ground and pounded away on him. The 14-month layoff Sonnen went through after testing positive for high testosterone levels and going through a legal battle involving a money laundering conviction had no ill effects. I had the same problem with Chael that everyone has had with him and that his future opponents will have, Stann said. I thought I was strong enough to handle dont want Chael Sonnen on top of you. It was horrible. Sonnen didnt limit his threats to Silva.
Sonnen. messages for me, Sonnen said. First off, if my name comes out of his mouth again, I will bury him where he stands. And hotel at 7:30, because daddys got a plane to catch and I need someone to help me carry my luggage. Sonnen referred to himself as the middleweight champion multiple times
