`People think I'm crazy, but throne is my birthright'

RAJA Noor Jan Shah Raja Tuah Shah is not the least disturbed to hear that questions have been raised about his sanity.
“I know many people think I am crazy but it doesn’t matter.
“I am fighting for my birthright and there is no shame in that,” he told the New Sunday Times recently.
After he first made his claim in 2005 by producing what he claimed to be the Taming Sari kris, he disappeared for about two years and everyone thought they had seen the last of him.
However, in September 2008, he resurfaced with the same claim and produced two more supposed royal heirlooms as “proof”.
Then, he dropped off the news radar again, only to re-emerge at the launch of a real-estate company’s online shopping website in Bandar Puteri, Puchong, here on July 15.
He was probed by patrolling policemen when he arrived at the function in a black Rolls Royce bearing the registration plate “D.Y.M.M. Tuanku Raja Noor Jan Shah… Raja Kesultanan Melaka Darul Islam”.
The policemen suspected something was amiss.
It was later found out that the RM2.75 million car was actually rented from a used-car dealer.
The driver was arrested on suspicion of drug abuse.
The police described Raja Noor Jan Shah’s antics as “syok sendiri”.
A local tabloid then alleged that he awarded a datukship to the company’s director during the function, which he vehemently denied a few days later.
“I did not give any awards at the function. It would be a humiliation for a sultan like me.
“Such awards are only given at the palace during special occasions, such as my birthday and not at any random place and time,” he reportedly said, adding that he was just an invited guest to the launch and nothing more.
He further said he had referred his claim on Malacca’s throne to the Council of Rulers, but it had been turned down.
He vowed to persevere.
“It is my birthright and I will do my best to claim it. I’m not giving up

Sitting back and hoping you
Posted on July 28th, 2010 by adminSitting back and hoping you don?t become a target will spell disaster.
Canada is lucky that they were able to foil the would be attackers. Officials say more arrests are possible.
What makes this case particularly disturbing is that many of the people who were arrested were born in Canada and were raised with Canada?s ideals.
Something went wrong and these young people rejected those wonderful ideologies. By all accounts, their community embraced those Canadian values.
This is a truly unfortunate episode for Canadians and once again their innocence is being lost to horrific incidents like these.
This is also an opportunity for Canadians to react positively, decisively and strongly against terrorism.

Prices stabilise as total of homes for sale rises further
Posted on July 28th, 2010 by adminPrices stabilise as total of homes for sale rises further
0 Comments | Tamworth Herald, The, Jul 15, 2010
AVERAGE UK asking prices were stable in July as a surge of property onto the market stalled prices, according to FindaProperty.com’s house price index.
The number of properties for sales across the UK grew by six per cent in July, and there is now 43 per cent more property for sale than in January. Despite this, the average asking price remained flat at Pounds 220, 231, although first-time buyer house prices dipped by Pounds 4,000.
The number of mortgages approved by lenders increased for the eleventh consecutive month in May 2010, according to the Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML).
There were 42,000 loans granted for house purchase, two per cent higher than in April and 15 per cent higher than in May 2009. The total value amounted to Pounds 6 billion.
But CML director general, Micheal Coogan, warned: “Activity picked up in the second half of 2009 due to the stamp duty holiday but with the government’s austerity drive picking up momentum we are unlikely to see a repeat of those buoyant numbers this year.”
There has been a 393 per cent increase in the number of ‘property millionaires’ in the last decade, according to research by Santander Mortgages.
The figures reveal that there are 131,996 homes worth over Pounds 1 million in Britain, a five-fold increase on the 26,776 a decade ago.
Around 78 per cent of these million pound homes are in Greater London, with the capital’s SW post code claiming nearly three in ten (29 per cent) of the nation’s millionaire properties. Edinburgh is the first non-South East area in the league, coming in at 11th place with 1,665 millionpound-plus dwellings

Clean sweep; THE BIRMINGHAM POST
Posted on July 28th, 2010 by adminClean sweep; THE BIRMINGHAM POST
0 Comments | Birmingham Post (England), The, March 14, 2007
To anyone stepping in a pile of dog poop on their way to work today, or finding the front garden carpeted in crisp bags – take heart.
Yesterday Birmingham was crowned Britain’s Cleanest City.
Judges from the cleaning industry used Government-approved standards to judge each destination as well as viewing the streets through the eyes of a tourist.
It fought off competition from, among others, Coventry, Edinburgh and Truro to scoop the prize.
It is not known just how extensive the tourists’ excursion around Birmingham was but no doubt cynics will jest that the guidebook was a rather slim one. And they will be treated with the disdain they deserve.
When planning to penetrate to the market
Posted on July 28th, 2010 by adminWhen planning to penetrate to the market place in Brazil, such lucrative urban areas as S?o Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Curitiba, Salvador, Belo Horizonte or simply open manufacturing facility in the industrial areas, corporate ERP selection and implementation question is one of the first questions to raise.

Now that it is known that there are at least 8 or more essential saccharides and 75 critical components; the standerdized glyconutrient complex makes other aloe products obsolete. Who would ever want to buy and use any aloe product or other plant with only one of the saccharides in adequate levels when you can have them all? Now scientists have found proprietary methods to optimally blend and deliver the components of GPs in high enough concentrations in a way that they can be utilized in the body. And still maintain the natural live food form.
New radioactive tracking studies show that individual saccharides are digested directly, absorbed and formed into GPs.
A whole new level has been reached with this product. One & only one company has a proprietary blend with all the needed precursors. They have the complete vehicle containing all the essential parts, not just one part like other products.
