Here is ...Shobhaa, Thanks for continuing your blog. Here is an interesting article / news today of Hollwood stars saving lives through this new medium of communication with their fans...Inspiring - facebook, blogs, twitter, all these new instant communication technologies are breaking huge barriers, and ending the anarchy of tabloid journalism.<BR/><BR/>Demi Moore used her Twitter account to save the life of a suicidal woman.<BR/><BR/>A woman sent the actress a message on the social networking site Friday that said: "Getting a knife, a big one that is sharp. Going to cut my arm down the whole arm so it doesn't waste time."<BR/><BR/>In response, Demi re-posted her message on her own Twitter page, adding, "Hope you are joking."<BR/><BR/>She told her followers in the post that she just couldn't let the message go unnoticed.<BR/><BR/>"Everyone I was very torn about responding or retweeting that woman's post but felt uncomfortable just letting it go," Moore tweeted.<BR/><BR/>See photos of today's top celeb news stories.<BR/><BR/>Some of the 380,000 followers of Moore (her Twitter name is mrskutcher, after her husband Ashton Kutcher) responded to her post, saying that they had reached out to police. <BR/><BR/>"The twitterverse is on the case just called silicon valley pd to report this woman many others had called. fingers crossed," one user wrote in a post.<BR/><BR/>A rep for the San Jose Police Department said they "received several phone calls" about the woman starting at 3 a.m. on Friday, Access Hollywood reports. Police were able to locate the woman, who had not yet hurt herself.<BR/><BR/>Moore and Kutcher were both thankful when they found out the woman was safe.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Kutcher tweeted: "Wifey reported a suicide attempt based on a at reply tweet she got and saved someones life. The woman is in the hospital now."<BR/><BR/>Moore also thanked her followers for their help.<BR/><BR/>"Thanks everyone for reaching out to the San Jose PD i am told they are aware and no need to call anymore. I do not know this woman," she wrote. "I am inspired by the enormous response of humanity here and thank you..."<BR/><BR/>She added most recently: "Today was a prime example of the power of collective consciousness and our incredible ability to create change when we come together!"<BR/><BR/>You should Amitji's recent blog post. Its a huge dissertation on how he is being wronged by the press and his response to TOI. Where does he find time and energy to prepare such a response?<BR/><BR/>I say he should start twittering and forget the A*holes who keep attacking him, he is bring them on by responding. This new medium of communication is the future without intermediaries and direct to your readers and fans!<BR/><BR/>What do you think?Theyoginmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04994599670878778861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-47161439893962615772009-04-04T10:27:00.000+05:302009-04-04T10:27:00.000+05:30Macho man in mucho trouble...thats alliteration!! ...Macho man in mucho trouble...thats alliteration!!

If this indeed is true then the indian society is becoming slave of western ills due to the WESTERN MONEY flowing to these TV news channels....I don't know if it's correct but whatever little I know, it does seems to be creditable piece of details. <BR/><BR/>Read yourself and pass it on to others so that we all can know who is actually behind the scenes and BEAMING THIS FILTH on TV every single day.<BR/><BR/>NDTV, Star News, CNN-IBN and others ....I dare you not to cross the limit of descency and forget your responsibility...otherwise some of you will be lynched in public one day and your wives and kids will be at the mercy of monster/indescent society which you are building so shamelessley for last 10 years.<BR/><BR/>Message for Barkha Dutt---Dont ever dare to show those kind of video footage which you shamelessly decided to show on Aklshay Kumar. And just remember I am watching you when I see how soft your voice becomes when you talk to a muslim leader and let him go without asking tough questions. It gives the impression that he knows some dirty secrets about you... <BR/><BR/>See the post which I have cut and pasted for readers here...<BR/>==============================<BR/><BR/>Who owns the media in India ?There are several major publishing groups in India, the most prominent among them being the Times of India Group, the Indian Express Group, the Hindustan Times Group, The Hindu group, the Anandabazar Patrika Group, the Eenadu Group, the Malayalam Manorama Group, the Mathrubhumi group, the Sahara group, the Bhaskar group, and the Dainik Jagran group. <BR/><BR/>NDTV: Funded by the Gospels of Charity in Spain. Recently it has developed a soft corner towards Pakistan because the Ex-President Musharraf had allowed only this channel to be aired in Pakistan. Indian Division CEO Prannoy Roy is the co-brother of Prakash Karat, General Secretary of Communist Party of India. His wife and Brinda Karat are sisters.<BR/><BR/>India Today which used to be the only national weekly, now bought by NDTV and since then the tone has changed drastically and turned into Hindu bashing. <BR/><BR/>CNN-IBN: Totally funded by Southern Baptist Church with its branches in all over the world with HQ in US. The Church annually allocates $800 million for promotion of its channel. Its Indian heads are Rajdeep Sardesai and his wife Sagarika Ghosh.<BR/><BR/>Times group list: Times Of India, Mid-Day, Nav-Bharth Times, Stardust , Femina, Vijaya Times, Vijaya Karnataka, Times now (24- hour news channel) and many more. Times Group is owned by Bennet & Coleman. ‘World Christian Council‘ does 80 percent of the Funding, and an Englishman and an Italian equally share balance 20 percent. The Italian Robertio Mindo is a close relative of Sonia Gandhi (real name Antonia Maino).<BR/><BR/>Star TV: Rupert Murdoch, who is supported by St. Peters Pontificial Church, Melbourne.<BR/><BR/>Hindustan Times: Owned by Birla Group, Presently it is working in Collobration with Times Group<BR/>The Hindu: (not a Hindu religious paper at all , but cruises on the perception - taken over by Joshua Society, Berne, Switzerland. N.Ram’s wife is a Swiss national.<BR/><BR/>Indian Express: Divided into two groups:The Indian Express and The New Indian Express (southern edition): ACTS Christian Ministries have major stake in the Indian Express and later is still with the Indian counterpart.<BR/><BR/>Eeenadu: Still to date controlled by an Indian named Ramoji Rao. Ramoji Rao is connected with film industry and owns a huge studio in Andhra Pradesh .<BR/><BR/>Andhra Jyothi: The Muslim Party of Hyderabad known as MIM along with a Congress Minister has purchased this Telugu daily.<BR/><BR/>The Statesman: It is controlled by the Communist Party of India.<BR/><BR/>Kairali TV: It is controlled by the Communist Party of India (Marxist)<BR/><BR/>Mathrubhoomi: Leaders of Muslim League and Communist Leaders have major investment.<BR/><BR/>Asian Age and Deccan Chronicle: Is owned by a Saudi Arabian Company with its chief Editor M.J.

We see much raunchy/erotic/steamy scenes, stories in our latest bollywood films,soaps and books (which are meant for bedroom only types). so why only punish akshay. why can't we give notice to everyone involved who either does these things, writes such things or caters to such things. I don't think we are any "doodh ka dhula hua", so let's not judge Akshay. I think it's very subjective what's appropriate and what's not.<BR/><BR/>I always loved Thai food but I am not sure the kind of thai food we get in US is close to real thai food. I never had any thai food when I was in India (heck, I didn't even know that we get thai food in India.)<BR/><BR/>Good to see that your shoulder is treating you well. Wish you speedy recovery. Hopefully the marathi mulagi will get the verdict soon and will not have to come to aamachi mumbai frequently. But then, that can be her excuse for easting good shrikhand and pooranachi poli :) Zeez, I am getting hungry I guessSameerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12541729573242294872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-40350281045471433312009-04-03T23:34:00.000+05:302009-04-03T23:34:00.000+05:30Hey Shobha, lovely-dovely:)))With my hectic work s...Hey Shobha, <BR/>lovely-dovely:)))<BR/>With my hectic work schedule and away from home, your blod is soo refreshing for me!!!!

Can't wait for Sundays coloumn. <BR/><BR/>AK's act was a cheap publicity stunt sooo wannabe! Has he no credibility as an actor that he needs to resort to such stunts? Guess something similar could be said for Madhu Sapre but puhleease for crying out loud its been simply eons since the ad in question happened why can't it be allowed to rest in the archives & not be brought back over & over again ad nauseam!<BR/><BR/>So glad you signed off saying till tomorrow.

These guys whine about the press but do not really know what they are speaking in public. The other day there was some TV show and all these stars were present and the host was cracking jokes about gays etc and everyone was laughing including Mrs Jaya B.
