Kaafila: a unique tale

Ammtoge Mann's film Kaafila or caravan of people is a touching, heart-rending story of the lunatic rush of not-so-wealthy Third World people opting to leave their motherland in search of utopian dreams of a better life abroad in developed countries. These people put their jobs, families and even lives at stake to reach their desired destination even when they can be better off in their own country without all the hardship and suffering. The movie strives to create a mass awareness of the "dark side of illegal immigration. The film explores uncharted waters for the first time ever," says Mann.

There aint no big difference between legal immigration and illegal immigration. The white man harasses them both equally well.

It takes even more cowardice to shun homeland, when it has treated you so well from the time you are born, in the assumption that there aint no future at home.

Pluto Demoted...Planet no more

The planet Pluto has been demoted to "small solar system bodies" like other comets by the International Astronomical Union as it doesn't satisfy the defination of a planet. This announcement came after a week when two more planets were discovered taking the total number of planets to 12. The tenth was discovered more than three years ago. However yesterday's declaration left the solar system with only eight planets. For now, membership will be restricted to the eight “classical” planets in the solar system: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Pluto has been disqualified under the new rules for a planet which says, “a celestial body that is in orbit around the sun, has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a ... nearly round shape, and has cleared the neighborhood around its orbit.” Pluto's orbit overlaps the orbit of Neptune.
