Karzai sets 2014 deadline for security takeover

Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai on Tuesday signalled that he would prefer a complete withdrawal of the foreign forces from the country by 2014, in tune with a gradual takeover of security in the provinces by Afghan forces from next year.

In his opening remarks at an international conference on Afghanistan in Kabul, he proposed that by October 2011, the Afghan National Army should have 1,70,000 troops, and the police force should be boosted with the induction of 1,34,000 officers. He said 36,000 former militants would be integrated into the regular forces.

Mr. Karzai said a board would be established to identify the provinces where the Afghan forces could be sent on their own from 2011.

Corroborating Mr. Karzai's perception in part, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Washington would step up the tempo of turning over security to the Afghan forces from July 2011. “The July 2011 date captures both our sense of urgency and the strength of our resolve.” “The transition process is too important to push off indefinitely... But this date is the start of a new phase, not the end of our involvement,” she said.

“Condition, not calendars”

As for the deadline for the withdrawal of the foreign forces, NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen emphasised that “conditions, not calendars” would govern the timetable for the takeover of security by the Afghan forces. In no way would the Taliban be allowed to topple the Afghan government, he said. “Our mission will end when — but only when — the Afghans are able to maintain security on their own.”

Mr. Karzai also called for routing half of the foreign aid for Afghanistan through governmental channels. So far, only 20 per cent of the aid has passed through the Afghan establishment. However, aid transfers are linked to the issue of corruption in the Afghan officialdom.

Ms. Clinton pointed out that there were “no shortcuts to fighting corruption and improving governance.” “On this front, both the Afghan people and the people of the international community expect results.”

United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who is co-hosting the conference in which 70 countries are participating, said aid programmes needed to be “well-coordinated and fully transparent.”

Mr. Karzai also called on the Taliban and other armed opposition groups to give up militancy and join the peace process initiated by the government. “I wish all those have taken up arms against the country to give up militancy.”

But Ms. Clinton warned that the Afghan government should not try to make peace with the Taliban, the Al-Qaeda and other militant groups that the U.S. strongly opposed.

UN rights council to debate Gaza flotilla incident

The United Nations Human Rights Council, in a special meeting on Tuesday, will focus on the Israeli raid of a flotilla of activists with humanitarian aid bound for the Gaza Strip which left at least nine people dead on Monday.

In what diplomats said would be an “urgent debate,” the 47—member council will consider a draft resolution, put forward by the Palestinians and the Organization of the Islamic Conference, which condemns the “outrageous attack” by Israel on the flotilla.

Also, the draft calls for an “independent international fact— finding mission” to investigate the incident, while demanding that Israel release any activists currently in detention.

The last fact—finding mission sent by the council to the Middle East, headed by Justice Richard Goldstone, was rejected by Israel, which said the team was biased against the Jewish state.

In the lead—up to the rights council debate, UN humanitarian agencies in Geneva spoke about a worsening situation in the Gaza Strip.

Gaza hospitals struggling without equipment

Paul Garwood, the World Health Organization spokesman for emergencies, said Gaza’s hospitals were struggling without equipment and Israel was not allowing other supplies into the enclave.

It was “impossible to maintain a safe and effective health care system under the siege,” Mr. Garwood told reporters, adding that “chronic malnutrition” was on the rise.

The UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) said it was not able to bring in cement for housing projects. Deliveries of shoes and clothes were also being blocked.

The UN’s humanitarian chief, John Holmes, said in a statement that the blockade “has been unacceptable, unnecessary and counterproductive” and “has helped only the extremists.” Israel says it allows aid agencies to bring in basic supplies and rejects allegations that there is a humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip.

Earlier in New York, the UN Security Council called for an impartial inquiry into the Israeli commando raid and also said the Israel should release the ships and all the civilians currently held.

The UN’s top body said Israel should allow the aid that was on board the intercepted flotilla to be sent to the coastal enclave, currently under a blockade. According to the Security Council, the situation in Gaza is “not sustainable.”

Putting New Dispatch Software in Place

Buying new courier software is one of the normal activities that will happen with a courier company regularly. Now that courier software has become such a critical part of a courier company, and because the courier software is improving at such a pace, upgrading that software regularly has simply become a part of doing business for a courier company. When the time comes to buy new courier delivery software, finding the proper way to implement that software can help your company to go through the transition of new software without any problems. Failing to do so properly can create problems for your company.

There are several parts of implementing new software into your business without any difficulties. It can be broken down into testing, training, and implementation. If you can plan properly for these three phases and put them into place one by one, it will make sure that your business will only get better when putting your new software into place, rather than experiencing the difficulties which could appear otherwise.

http://nerdfighters.ning.com/profile/EvaGrace

Testing the new software on your hardware is an important step to make before you put the software into full effect. Also, if you have to buy new hardware in order to utilize the new software, it is greatly going to increase the costs that your company has to pay for. Testing can help reveal that cost beforehand so that you don't have unexpected surprises down the road.

Training is probably the most important part of putting new software into place. By making sure that your employees understand completely how to run the new software you make sure that no mistakes will be made when the new software goes live. That helps ensure that your company doesn't lose packages, make mistakes that cost money, and most importantly of all don't have problems which cause customer dissatisfaction.

The final part of the puzzle is actually putting the software into play. There are several different ways that this can be done. One way that this can be done is by using the new features of the courier company to supplement your marketing material. Use your new features as points in your advertising to help attract new customers. Another thing that you can do is to make sure and educate your customers about the upgrades before they go into place. Customers can sometimes become dissatisfied with change, but making sure they know about any changes before they happen decreases the odds of that occurring.

People always tend to delete the files which they do not need any more or which they do not want others to see. However, people find that all the files can not be deleted completely. Even they clear the trash, the files can be recovered. Thus some privacy will be given away. I know many people are extremely worried about it, so I will illustrate an easy way to delete files completely.

You can free download Registry Winner and use the function of "File Shredder" to delete files permanently. Choose "File Shredder" in the column of "Scan and Clean", and click "File" or "Directory" to add any file or item you want to delete. If you find what you add is still useful, you can choose to put it back.

"I have not fudged any reports or records, I have written one confidential battle performance report about Brig Devinder Singh and as a Corps Commander, the report I wrote about him was totally unbiased and true," he said here.

The former 15 Corps GOC said he had no personal animosity with Brig Singh, who led 70 Infantry Brigade in the Batalik sector in the Kargil war, and wished him luck for the redressal the former Commander got from the Tribunal.

He alleged that the "real progress" in operations in the Batalik sector was made during the last 7-8 days of the war and Brig Singh was not present there at that point.

Asked if he would apologise to Brigadier Singh for showing bias against him as said by the Tribunal, Lt Gen Kishan Pal said, "No, not at all. I would not comment against the Tribunal as it is a court."

Registry Cleaner for Windows 7

Windows 7 is the latest entrant in the realm of operating systems and has become quite a success in a short span of time. It has been reported as the best selling operating system of all times. However it is not without its share of challenges. It is encountering a major problem in the form of "registry". Registry is primarily an integral part of Windows that stores and saves your personal settings and information on your computer. But this has been a source of much trouble for Windows 7.

The nature of the problem has to basically do with the function that registry has to perform. Since registry is storing up so much information, it is being used non-stop. This obviously makes your system prone to problems and triggers instability as it is saving up a lot of wrong files. This in turn causes many registry files to become corrupted. This adversely affects the speed of your computer and it runs very slow as it is trying to decode the files.

Having a corrupt registry is not an alien concept to Windows since it has been plagued with this problem since Windows 98. In lieu of this problem, registry cleaners have been specifically developed to correct this problem, and they function by going through the entire registry and then taking corrective steps to fix any corrupted files. The only problem is that since the registry is being used so much and is constantly working, it eventually saves new files in it. These dynamics make the old registry cleaners confused and they end up deleting a whole lot of new registry files that may be in the computer.

Choosing an inappropriate registry tool for you PC will cause you a great deal of trouble as the older cleaners try and remove a whole lot of new registry files that have been stored on your system. This would lead to a slower speed of you computer and thus aggravating the situation and complicating your problems. It could even render you computer unusable.

Thus to save yourself all this hassle, you need to get the best registry scan and you need to opt for a registry scan that can deal with all the latest registry files that this new version of Windows will have. After having carefully scrutinized the market for registry cleaners, the one we deem perfect is "ReginOut" that works extremely well. ReginOut is also known as Windows 7 Registry Cleaner.

Windows XP - Update to Service Pack 3 by July 13 2010 Or Lose Automatic Updates

Microsoft ends their support for Windows XP Service Pack 2 on July 13 2010. It is essential that your Windows XP computer is running Service Pack 3 by this date in order to keep the automatic updates coming to your computer.

Microsoft's Update System

Microsoft regularly pushes updates, patches and security updates to computers running various versions of Windows XP. As new software problems and vulnerabilities are discovered, Microsoft prepares new updates to address them.

Microsoft's regular scheduled monthly update is on the second Tuesday of each month. This is often referred to inside the computer industry as "Patch Tuesday". Occasionally, Microsoft determines a patch or security update is too important to wait and send these updates out before the regular update schedule. These unscheduled updates are known as "out of band" updates.

Why The Updates Are Needed

Some of the updates are to fix glitches or minor problems with the different versions of Windows. Sometimes new features are added by the updates. But most important of all, security updates are sent out by Microsoft's update system.

Malicious software writers are constantly examining software for vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities are problems or issues with the software code that allow them to access a computer. With this access, they can download and install viruses, trojans, spying software and other types of malicious software. Microsoft and other software vendors are always on the lookout for areas of their programs that could allow malicious access to a computer.

Its like a cat and mouse game. A software vendor releases a new program. The malicious software writers go to work looking for ways to exploit the software code to let them access your computer. As they find new ways to get inside your computer, the software companies find new ways to stop them with updates and patches. The malicious software writers go to work looking for ways to use the new updated code to let them in. The software vendor provides newer patches and updates. This game constantly swings back and forth.

Keeping your computer up to date is essential. And the way to keep your Windows software (Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7) up to date is by using Microsoft's free update system. After a while software code gets to be too old to keep updating and patching. That is what is happening with Microsoft's decision to drop support on Windows XP Service Pack 2. As of July 13 2010, Microsoft will no longer support Windows XP running with Service Pack 2. They will continue to support Windows XP running Service Pack 3.

What Is A Service Pack?

A service pack is a collection of the patches, updates and security fixes for a product. For example when Windows XP was first available, it was the original version. After preparing updates and patches for awhile, Microsoft combined them together, along with some product enhancements and improvements into Service Pack 1. This process continued and Microsoft combined all the security patches and updates into Service Pack 2. This was several years ago.

In April 2008, Microsoft combined all of the previous patches, updates, security fixes and product enhancements into the latest service pack, Service Pack 3.

All of Microsoft's updates and service packs are free.

How Can I Check The Service Pack Level On My Computer?

To see which service pack your version of Windows is running, you need to press 2 keys on the keyboard at the same time.

Press the Windows "Flag" key in the lower left corner of the keyboard. It is located between the "Ctrl" key and the "Alt" key.
While holding down the Windows "Flag" key, press the key labeled "Pause Break". This key is located in the upper right corner of the keyboard.
Once you press these 2 keys together you will see a "System Properties" screen. If this screen didn't pop up, try again. It can take a few tries to get the feel of using multiple key presses.

In the upper half of the "System Properties" screen there is information about the version of Windows you are running (Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7). Just below this you will find the Service Pack level. For Windows XP, you should already be running Service Pack 3.

What To Do If Your Computer Is Not Running Service Pack 3 for Windows XP

If you are running Windows XP and are not running Service Pack 3, check to be sure your computer is set up to receive Windows Automatic Updates.

To check this, bring up the "System Properties" screen again by pressing the "Windows Flag" and "Pause Break" keys at the same time again. When the "System Properties" screen appears, you will notice there are two rows of tabs at the top of the page.

Click the "Automatic Updates" tab at the top. Be sure the "Automatic" selection is marked. Press the "OK" button at the bottom.

When Automatic Updates is active, your computer will automatically check with Microsoft to see which updates your computer needs. Your computer will automatically download and install the updates. This is the easiest way to keep your Windows current and up to date. Its also the recommended way to keep your Windows current and up to date.

Some people prefer to use the second selection, "Download updates for me but let me decide when to install them". With this option, your computer downloads all the updates and then notifies you they are ready. From here you can review them and decide which updates to use and when to install them. This option is often used by more advanced computer users.

You Can Also Update Manually

If for some reason your computer will not update with the automatic downloads, you can go to Microsoft's web site and select and download Windows updates manually. The web site address for manual Windows updates is http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
