Miss Universe Goes Topless
The universal truth – controversy sells. So does sex. Club them together and they are likely to breathe life into a dead beauty pageant. Once upon a time the ticket to easy fame and money, beauty pageants are now struggling to remain afloat. Even the Grand Slam or Big Four of the pageant world – The Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss Earth and Miss International – are encountering tough times. TV viewers have plummeted and sponsors are hard to come by. In an age of women’s emancipation, women have so many means to achieve the life of their dreams. Look at self-made hi-achievers among women around the world. They haven’t taken the pageant route-far from it. This year the contestants are grabbing eyeballs without the twirl of a single gorgeous gown. In a new form of pre-event hype, some of the contestants are posing topless and/or covered in body paint. Of the 83 contestants, Miss USA, Miss Japan and Miss Trinidad and Tobago faced the camera with body paint on. Miss USA 2010 has already stirred up controversy in this year’s Miss USA competition when she wore lingerie and fishnets. When she won the Miss USA crown, “TMZ” reported that she was the winner of a stripping contest in 2007.
Rima Fakih has said that she was well aware that there would be controversy when she decided to pose topless for her publicity shots. “Well, there were options and we were all asked what we would feel comfortable [doing],” she told “Access Hollywood.” “I told them I feel comfortable with beauty and with being unique. I’m known to stand out and always wanting to do something different.” Miss USA Discusses Topless Miss Universe Photos Controversy At the end of the day, the Miss Universe pageant judges a contestant on beauty attributes. Each one may interpret beauty and what makes them beautiful in their unique way. Posing topless cannot be a great or unique idea. If anything, it is likely to bring down the already flimsy image of the pageant where contestants pledge to spread peace, tolerance and mutual understanding. After this, who will take them seriously? Update: Uh oh. India’s contestant, Ushoshi Sengupta isn’t lagging behind in grabbing eyeballs. For completely wrong reasons though. Take a look at the image alongside. It’s not a gown borrowed from Barbie as the Island Princess. That could be the inspiration though. This is the gown Ushoshi Sengupta wore for the National Costume round of the Ms Universe pageant, in Las Vegas, US, on Monday. Designed by Kolkata-based designer duo Dev R Nil, the dress, which seemed to lack structured tailoring, looked like a gown gone horribly wrong, say Indian designers. What the designers were aiming for is anybody’s guess. I am wondering why Ritu Kumar, who has been designing for the national costume round at the pageant for years, was overlooked. This appears to be a pageant India forfeits before it begins.

Meet the Brit entrepreneur who has become a millionaire at 16!
A school going entrepreneur in Britain has turned a millionaire at the age of just 16. Computer whizz Christian Owens set up his first firm with his pocket money at 14 and another a year later. Start-up venture Mac Box Bundle, which sells cut-price packages of Apple Mac computer applications, has earned 700,000 pounds since 2008. Christian, who has used computers since he was seven, then launched advertising website Branchr in 2009, working after school and on weekends. It made 500,000 pound in its first year and counts bookies William Hill and social networking site MySpace as clients. Christian, of Corby, Northants, employs eight adult workers around the UK and America as sales and technical assistants. Christian said he is inspired by Apple supremo Steve Jobs and plans to turn Branchr into a 100million pound business. "I really wanted to create something simple that would revolutionise the way advertising works. I don''t know where I will be in ten years but I won''t leave Branchr until it has reached 100million pound," the Sun quoted him as saying. "There is no magical formula to business - it takes hard work, determination and drive," he added.

Independence Day in India
What do people do?
Independence Day is a day when people in India pay homage to their leaders and those who fought for India's freedom in the past. The period leading up to Independence Day is a time when major government buildings are illuminated with strings of lights and the tricolor flutters from homes and other buildings. Broadcast, print and online media may have special contests, programs, and articles to promote the day. Movies about India's freedom fighters are also shown on television.
The president delivers the '"Address to the Nation" on the eve of Independence Day. India's prime minister unfurls India's flag and holds a speech at the Red Fort in Old Dehli. Flag hoisting ceremonies and cultural programs are held in the state capitals and often involve many schools and organizations.
Many people spend the day with family members or close friends. They may eat a picnic in a park or private garden, go to a film or eat lunch or dinner at home or in a restaurant. Other people go kite flying or sing or listen to patriotic songs.
Public life
Independence Day is a gazetted holiday in India on August 15 each year. National, state and local government offices, post offices and banks are closed on this day. Stores and other businesses and organizations may be closed or have reduced opening hours.
Public transport is usually unaffected as many locals travel for celebrations but there may be heavy traffic and increased security in areas where there are celebrations. Independence Day flag raising ceremonies may cause some disruption to traffic, particularly in Dehli and capital cities in India's states.
Background
The struggle for India's Independence began in 1857 with the Sepoy Mutiny in Meerut. Later, in the 20th century, the Indian National Congress and other political organizations, under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi, launched a countrywide independence movement. Colonial powers were transferred to India on August 15, 1947.
The Constituent Assembly, to who power was to be transferred, met to celebrate India's independence at 11pm on August 14, 1947. India gained its liberty and became a free country at midnight between August 14 and August 15, 1947. It was then that the free India's first prime minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru gave his famous "Tryst with Destiny" speech. People across India are reminded of the meaning of this event - that it marked the start of a new era of deliverance from the British colonialism that took place in India for more than 200 years.
Symbols
The sport of kite flying symbolizes Independence Day. The skies are dotted with countless kites flown from rooftops and fields to symbolize India's free spirit of India. Kites of various styles, sizes and shades, including the tricolor are available in the marketplaces. The Red Fort in Dehli is also an important Independence Day symbol in India as it is where Indian Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru unveiled India's flag on August 15, 1947.
India's national flag is a horizontal tricolor of deep saffron (kesaria) at the top, white in the middle and dark green at the bottom in equal proportion. The ratio of the flag's width to its length is two to three. A navy-blue wheel in the center of the white band represents the chakra. Its design is that of the wheel which appears on the abacus of the Sarnath Lion Capital of Ashoka. Its diameter approximates to the white band's width and it has 24 spokes.
Independence Day Observances
Note: During a gazetted holiday, government offices and most businesses are closed so people have a day off work.
