B Bhutto Assassination III

The evil that is Benazir Bhutto's husband, Asif Ali Zardari has taken over as the chief of the PPP. He has also posted his son, another Zardari now turned Bhutto, as the token chief.
I had no doubt in my mind that Zardari would take over the party. For him it has like fallen into his lap like a ripe apple from the heavens. This hurts me more than the death of his wife.
Another most troubling thing is the fact that Pakistan's largest party has no structure whatsoever. IT is yet another dynasty where the leadership is decided not based on the capabilities and the right turn but blood relations to the leaders. The shortsightedness of the leaders is very evident. Similarly the selfishness of these people can also not be ignored. Benazir Bhutto new that there was danger to her life but even then she didn't choose to think or devise any democratic method to ascertain her successor.
Actually none of the parties has the right to call themselves democratic parties as there is no democracy in their very core. If Nawaz were to suffer a similar fate i am pretty sure that another idiot from his family will claim to be the successor of his party.
The people of Pakistan who still vote for such parties should rethink and change their mind. How can a party that does not obey the rules and regulations of a democratic system bring in true democracy to this country if it were to win the next elections. So my hopes for the next elections are as hopeless as they could ever be.
In the end nothing has really changed for the people of Pakistan. If anything matters have gotten worse with evil Zardari at the helm of affairs.
I will also like to remember one sane voice in PPP that has been shut down by the dictator and his supporters, Aitizaz Ahsan. He is still under house arrest and not able to communicate with the media. Or is it that the media has been forced to ignore him to take him out of the public limelight. Benazir's assassination has hurt the only true democratic movement in the country - lawyers' struggle movement- very badly. It has taken this struggle out of the public notice and this to the joy of our dictator and his supporters, both domestic and foreign.
I would really like to see Aitizaz Ahsan freed and lead the nation to a true democratic system and out of this dynasty rule.

Learning Arduino 1

This holiday season I decided to gift myself some basic electrical components in the form of a Arduino UNO set from Elegoo. I have always had a desire to tinker with electronics and in gifting myself this basic set I am now starting on a journey to quench my inner electrical workman's thirst. I hope to develop this hobby as I move forward and will, from time to time, post about it here on the blog. As the journey moves forward I am sure to run into trouble and issues. But as they say you can not master anything without first being a fool at it, so I have decided to remain a fool at it until I am a little good at it. To start with, I do possess some elementary knowledge in electronics and electronic circuits. I intend to further my knowledge using the world wide web and following some very useful video channels on youtube. I will first start with some very basic projects to familiarize myself with Arduino and basic electronic circuits and techniques such as soldering. Then graduall...

iPad 2

The new iPad is worth it's money. Sleek slender design is a plus and so is the light weight. I am not really impressed by the camera as the pictures with both front and back cameras are pixelated and very amateurish looking. It's handy in the sense that I can carry it around while making rounds and access patient information on the go. This makes life easier and for someone like myself this means much less paper waste. I think one added advantage is that I will waste less time on writing down all the information on a piece of paper every morning and will be able to pull it up anytime I want to do so or need to do so. This gives me more time to think and reflect on the patient and spend more time with the patient rather than time in front of a bulky computer. There are new apps I am discovering every day. However there is still dearth of good medical apps that have been modeled for iPad. This makes the productivity of the iPad a little less but still the benefits of having a w...

Tax skirting by hospital systems?

The issue of avoiding federal taxes is in the news these days with Apple being in the spotlight.  Most of the times big companies avoid paying US taxes by skirting their profits to tax havens.  Healthcare giants can do the same theoretically.  Imagine if there were a health care giant that opens up shop in tax haven islands and then uses the same technique that commercial entities use to skirt their profits out of the country, thereby avoiding taxes.  This is very much possible.  The of shore clinics can be potentially used to complicate the tax return filing system here in US.  I could never understand why a completely US hospital system would like to open up a clinic in Bahamas.  These clinics are portrayed as the global reach of the entity but who do they actually serve.  We never hear about them in press or public.  These clinics are apparently manned by some doctors we never hear about.  How does this system work?  I really do...
