Strategist,
It looks like you have analysed our Resource Management Consultant well. But don't be too hard. Yes, bitterness of failure must be pushing her to write all these.
There is no bitterness in failure for the successful. We own the system to the extent we accept failures. Hence the saying 'failures are the pillars of success'.
But those who pretend to be successful - through bogus wins, have no room to improve and grow.
love

'If that principle is abandoned or even modified for political expediency we risk the whole foundation of our criminal justice system,' Justice Bongiorno said in granting bail yesterday to two men alleged to be members of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, otherwise known as the Tamil Tigers.
The judge highlighted problems in the Crown case, particularly that the LTTE was not a proscribed terrorist organisation in Australia, and it was no longer classified as such even in Sri Lanka after a truce was brokered in 2002 between the Tamil Tigers and the Government.
Though the Crown had indicated it would call two political scientists to testify at the trial that the LTTE was a terrorist organisation, the judge said such evidence might not be admitted to go before a jury.
It also emerged yesterday that one of three alleged LTTE members awaiting a committal hearing in Melbourne had openly admitted his membership of the separatist group to immigration authorities when applying for a protection visa in 1996.
Aruran Vinayagamoorthy, 33, 'frankly declared that he was a member of the LTTE and that was why he had a legitimate fear of his return to Sri Lanka', the court heard.
No objection was raised by authorities on the grounds of character and Mr Vinayagamoorthy was granted bail, Justice Bongiorno said.
Sivarajah Yathavan, 36, was also granted bail by Justice Bongiorno. Later in the Melbourne Magistrates Court, Chief Magistrate Ian Gray granted bail to a third co-accused, Sydney financial planner Arumugam Rajeevan. |
