Why the 'pacific' protest will be a flop
The media hype concerning the 9/11 - now moved to 9/10 - protest is unjustified. The ultimate outcome of all this nonsense will be a resounding failure, with a maximum of 3,000 youths expected - and I am in a generous mood today - and no opportunity for a concrete political movement in its aftermath. There are various signs pointing towards the failure of their endeavour:
The movement itself...

The Mauritian Rumour Mill
Not much is required to set the Mauritian rumour mill into action. An enigmatic half-statement from a semi-personality is more than enough to spark wild speculations on the market place and private conversations. Facts are distorted, fallacious spicy details added to give credibility to the story and the rumour becomes a living story. For example, the latest rumour has been sparked by a sideline...

Beyond reasonable doubt
Has justice been served in the Casey Anthony case? Probably not. But the rule of law prevaled. The jury did their job and did not sent her to the death row since it could not be established beyond any reasonable doubt that she killed her daughter. Yes Casey looks like a cold bitch (pretty hot though) for a mother who ‘suffered’ the loss of her child. Yes she is a liar. But not a first...

Google Hangouts vs Facebook-Skype
The match of the week. Where would you put the Facebook and G+ icons in this fight? I would personally put Facebook on Haye’s face. Google is punching hard while Facebook is not really bothered with the fight. A partnership of losers with M$ -who recently acquired Skype and- (indirectly) Nokia! Is this Facebook’s response to the coolness of Apple and Twitter on one side and the...
What the Mauritian press can learn from the Milly...
Nothing! The Mauritian press operates in a harsh legal environment, just like the French press. It is unthinkable that any publication, including Le Defi Plus, would dare to hack into the voicemail of a 13 year-old, murder victim. Instead of wishing for even tighter legislation, Ramgoolam II should be thankful that Mauritius is blessed by such a responsible press. The British tabloids have much to...

Do not blog when you don't have anything...
Ever had this burning (or even itchy) desire to shout anything to the world? Yet, armed with your pen in front of a blank sheet of paper, or the keyboard and an eery blank screen, you feel this emptyness in your brain and nothing comes up. This is when you realise that you have nothing interesting to say and you’d be better off doing something useful, like sleeping! So, good night everyone!

During the 1993/1994 season, one lousy scouser infamously put the following words on a banner: ‘Au revoir Cantona and Man United, come back when you’ve won 18’. He was refering to the scousers’ 18 league titles compared with MUFC’s then tally of 8. Little had that arrogant brat known how history would unfold in the following 17 years!
