집권 여당인 한나라당의 새 당명이 ‘새누리당’으로 결정됐다고 발표 됬다.

한나라당이 위기를 타개하기 위해 박근혜님이 이끄는 비상대책위원회가 가동되고 2012년 들어서면서 당명자체를 바꾸어 쇄신한다는 내용이 거론 되드니 비교적 빠른 수순으로 진행되어 당명이 바뀌는군요.

2월2일 한나라당은 비상대책위원회 전체회의에서 ‘새누리당’을 새 당명으로 하는 내용의 당명 개정안을 확정 함으로서 우리 헌정사에서 공화당 이후 최장수 정당이던 ‘한나라당’ 간판이 창당 1997.11.21이후 약15년 만에 내려진다.
끈질긴 내각제를 주장하던 장수 정당 자민련이 사라지고 한나라당 역시 역사속으로 사라진다.

이제 이름만 바뀌는 정당이 아니고 새로 태어나는 정당으로서 국민이 환호하는 정당이 되기를 기대 한다.

UFO Moviez eyes 100 more cinemas in Gujarat by next fiscal - Business Standard

UFO Moviez eyes 100 more cinemas in Gujarat by next fiscalVinay Umarji / Mumbai/ Ahmedabad?December 21, 2011, 0:32 IST

Having already ramped up its digital cinema network to 195 theatres in Gujarat by December 2011, UFO Moviez India Ltd, is planning to add another 100 cinemas to its kitty in the state by next fiscal.

One of the world's largest satellite delivered digital cinema network founded by the Valuable Group, UFO Moviez India Ltd. is eyeing a 50 per cent share in the Gujarat market, with the current share being 40 per cent. "Three years ago, Gujarati films used to open in 25 to 30 centers with 25 to 30 analogue prints. Now, due to UFO’s satellite-based solutions, they open in the same number of centers with 5-7 prints resulting in substantial cost savings to the distributor/producer. Such has been the penetration in the state, that out of total 500 cinemas, we have already covered 195 cinemas. By next fiscal, we plan to add another 100 cinemas to our digital network in Gujarat," said Pankaj Jaysinh, CEO, UFO Moviez India Ltd.

Apart from digital network, a back-end software and infrastructure for IMPACT ? UFO's online computerised ticketing platform for better management and transparency, has been developed and deployed in more than 200 screens across Maharashtra and Gujarat.

The number of Gujarati films released on the UFO digital network currently stands at 60 plus while the number of UFO digital theatres playing Gujarati films is approximately 100 as of December 2011. What's more, due to the UFO digital theatre network, Gujarati films are now being exhibited outside Gujarat in a limited fashion at places like the Eastern circuit (Roxy Talkies) and Mysore (Movie Land ? Bangalore). According to Jaysinh, multiple language films (in Tamil, Malayalam, Bhojpuri, Sindhi, Marathi and Telugu, for example) are also releasing in Gujarat, providing entertainment to the diaspora in the state. Currently, UFO has a base of 2,783 digital screens (147 3D Screens), spread in 1300 cities in 28 states of India. Out of these, around 350 screens are in multiplexes (which constitutes over 30 per cent of the multiplex population in the country) and the balance are single screen theatres. So far, UFO has released more than 4600 films in 29 languages and has conducted over 8.9 million shows till date.

UFO has committed an investment of Rs 200 crore to fuel the growth and expansion plans in India of associate company Scrabble Entertainment (Pvt) Limited (in which UFO Moviez has recently acquired a controlling stake), which offers high end technology for screening Hollywood films in multiplexes. The international roll out plans of Scrabble Entertainment will entail a capex of US$ 150 million (Rs 800 crore approx.) to be funded by way of international debt and further equity infusion by UFO Moviez.

Glastonbury 'UFO calls hotspot' - The Press Association

Glastonbury 'UFO calls hotspot'(UKPA) ? 6 days ago?

It is not only the celebrities that visit Glastonbury who have been described as out of this world as it emerged the town is believed to be a UFO hotspot.

Official figures show that in the last five years 27 calls were made to police detailing alien events in Somerset, including sightings near Glastonbury and Street.

Avon and Somerset Police released the figures to the Central Somerset Gazette following a request under the Freedom of Information Act.

The calls include general sightings of UFOs, aliens and "alien possession", while one caller reported a UFO in their front room which had inspired their dog to draw pictures on the window.

Others claimed there were saints looking in through their windows, or wanted to pass messages on from our intergalactic neighbours, including that the world needs to stop using nuclear weapons on humans.

In February 2007 one caller rang police to say aliens had taken over their body. This was followed up in July when another caller believed they saw an alien across the road.

In 2008 two callers reported being taken over by aliens and a possible alien assault. In the same year a UFO was seen circling the Tor and the the town.

Avon and Somerset Police said their communications department deals with around 180,000 emergency calls and 375,000 non-emergency calls. They also suggested some of these calls were likely to be a hoax but added they do highlight the work their call handlers are faced with.

Chief Inspector Kevan Rowlands told the paper: "Our call-handlers never know what the next call will involve and are trained to deal with a wide variety of incidents in a calm and professional manner. Sadly, there are a number of people who think it is amusing to ring the emergency services and make a hoax call.

"We are also very aware that some of the calls that may seem bizarre mask an underlying need from the caller. Our staff are trained to deal with this sensitively and to provide any necessary support."

Was UFO towed down Kansas street? The truth is out there - msnbc.com

A few days ago, a "UFO" was spotted cruising down a main street in Cowley County, Kansas. It wasn't in the skies, but instead being hauled on a flatbed truck driving down the middle of US Highway 77.

From at least one angle, the strange-shape aircraft resembled a saucer, and was covered by what appeared to be an industrial-strength tarp (or perhaps a badly malfunctioning cloaking device).

The vehicle, at about 30 feet across, was so big that local law enforcement had to remove roadside signs to allow safe passage ? as well as some measure of security. Many locals suspected (or at least joked) that that it might have been a UFO or some top-secret aircraft. Local sheriff Don Read said he was not allowed to divulge much about the mysterious craft, though he did let slip the detail that it was not recovered at a crash site, but rather had been manufactured by the aerospace company Northrop Grumman.

Yet many people wondered why, if it was a known craft (even a secretive one), wouldn't the company simply fly the craft to its destination. Perhaps it needed repair or maintenance; but if so, wouldn't it be easier to bring the mechanics and parts to the aircraft, instead of taking it to the nation's highways? Speculation ran rampant, fueled by YouTube videos and news reports about the strange sight. [ Hunter Captures UFO in Nevada ]

Finally, a man named Brooks McKinney stepped forward to pierce the veil of mystery and conspiracy. McKinney, senior manager of public relations at Northrop Grumman, told Life's Little Mysteries that the suspected UFO was in fact an X-47B, an unmanned combat drone designed to operate from aircraft carriers.

The X-47B has an impressive wingspan of 62 feet (just over 30 feet with wings folded); a length of nearly 40 feet; and stands about 10 feet high on three wheels. The X-47B in the video was headed to a Naval air station in Maryland.

"We built two for the Navy, they were being tested at Edwards Air Force Base [in California] since March," McKinney said. "One is on its way to Maryland, and the other will remain in California." He took the UFO speculation in good humor, though, and understood the curiosity: "Clearly people are interested in what's going through town. It's unusual to see a shrink-wrapped aircraft, especially one with that shape."

The reason it wasn't simply flown across the country is deceptively simple: "It's difficult to fly an unmanned drone through commercial airspace," McKinney explained. Piloted aircraft are one thing, but long trips for large aircraft without a human pilot on board are frowned upon for both aviation security reasons and practical concerns.

On the other hand, perhaps the X-47B is just a convenient cover story, and it really is a captured flying saucer. We'll leave it to you to decide.
