,/br> Hundreds of thousands of mourners paid last respects to former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto Friday (Dec. 28, 2007) as she was buried at her family's mausoleum in Garhi Khuda Bakhsh, the southern province of Sindh.







Bhutto was killed when an assassin fired shots and then blew himself up after an election campaign rally in Rawalpindi on Dec. 27. The attack also killed 28 others and wounded at least another 100. Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf announced three days of mourning.







Hundreds of thousands of mourners were shown on television weeping and struggling to touch her simple wooden coffin covered with the Pakistani flag. Bhutto's husband, Asif Ali Zardari, her three children and her sister Sanam attended the burial. Bhutto was buried alongside her father Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, Pakistan's first popularly elected prime minister who was later on executed by hanging.







The shooting and bombing attack on the charismatic former prime minister plunged Pakistan into turmoil. Pakistan is armed with nuclear weapons and is a key U.S. ally in the war on terrorism. Furious supporters rampaged through several cities, torching cars, trains and stores in violence that left at least 23 dead. Pakistan’s election commission announced Jan. 2 that parliamentary elections would be postponed until Feb. 18, a delay of six weeks.





Bhutto reportedly had been planning to give two visiting American lawmakers a 160-page report accusing the Musharraf government of taking steps to rig the Jan. 8 vote. The meeting was scheduled for a few hours after she was killed.







"The United States strongly condemns this cowardly act by murderous extremists who are trying to undermine Pakistan's democracy," President Bush said from his ranch near Crawford, Texas. "Those who committed this crime must be brought to justice." The attacker struck just minutes after Bhutto addressed a rally of thousands of supporters in the garrison city of Rawalpindi, 8 miles south of Islamabad. She died after hitting her head on part of her vehicle's sunroof -- not as a result of bullets or shrapnel, a spokesman for Pakistan's Interior Ministry said.





President Musharraf said Jan. 2 he had asked a team of investigators from Britain's Scotland Yard to assist in the investigation into Bhutto’s killing. Meantime, Pakistan's Interior Ministry also revealed that it had ''irrefutable evidence'' showing that al Qaeda was behind Bhutto's assassination.







Brigadier Javed Iqbal Cheema said the government had recorded an "intelligence intercept" in which “al Qaeda leader” Baitullah Mehsud "congratulated his people for carrying out this cowardly act." Mehsud is regarded as the commander of pro-Taliban forces in the lawless Pakistani tribal region South Waziristan, where al-Qaida fighters are also active. Mehsud has denied involvement.

Bidis (pronounced bee-dees) are thin unfiltered cigarettes hand-wrapped in brown
leaves and tied with short pieces of thread. School kids under 18 buy them because they are
cheaper than the cost of regular cigarettes and come in a variety of flavors including
root beer, orange, lemon-lime and strawberry. Teens might ask, "If they come in all
these cool flavors then how could they be harmful?" Well, Bidis have two to three times
more nicotine than regular cigarettes! And 44 percent of teens that smoke Bidis smoke
them because they think it isn't addictive or dangerous to their health. Because Bidis
deliver greater doses of nicotine to the bloodstream, they are far more addictive than
cigarettes. Also, Bidis, like cigarettes cause health issues such as cancer, heart disease,
high blood pressure, and many other serious health problems.






1. Drugs mess with your mind
Drug use can cause you to lose your ability to remember things, to think clearly and to
study properly. Drug use gives you the impression that you are more alert and
aware, but under the influence of drugs you are actually less aware, and less alert.
Drug use can also cause people to act in strange unpredictable ways. A person can
undergo a complete personality change when under the influence of drugs. Since
drug residues can remain in the body for many years after they were taken, the
effect on the mind can last a long time. Don't lose your mind! Avoid drugs.
2. Drugs mess with your body
Drug use can make you ill and an overdose can kill. Drugs are poisons after all. The list
of diseases you can catch as a result of using drugs is very long and includes
Hepatitis C, HIV and AIDS. Since drugs also use up your body's supply of vitamins
and minerals, you become more prone to diseases. Many drug users suffer
from malnutrition as a result of their habit. Why be a loser? Stay healthy!
3. Drugs mess with your wallet
Drug use interferes with your ability, which can make it harder to earn money. In the long
run, the more competent a person is in a job, the more likely that such a person
will earn a higher salary. However a person under the influence of drugs is quite
likely to make expensive mistakes and be incompetent. That is unemployment
waiting to happen.
Also, a drug habit can be REALLY expensive (up to hundreds of pounds per day!) and
this is why many addicts are forced into crime. Don't waste your money. Drugs are
the ultimate betrayer - you pay big money to destroy yourself.
4. Drugs mess with your travel plans
Anyone convicted of drugs offences will not be allowed entrance into some countries
such as Japan, Canada and USA.
Why lose exciting opportunities to travel?
Why limit your options as to where you want to work & live?
Many people like to work abroad, particularly in the USA, for a time during their career.
This would be impossible with a criminal record.
5. Drugs mess with your life
Drug use that seems a "cool" idea in the beginning can turn into a living nightmare that
includes accidents, hospitalisation, a life of crime, a criminal record, hurting those
you love, destroyed relationships, a prison sentence and death. Drug users often lose
their enthusiasm for life, give up sports and hobbies etc, in their fixation on the
next score for their habit. Taking drugs definitely gives you a new lifestyle, but it is
the lifestyle of a sad loser with no prospects.
6. Drugs mess with the planet
Many drugs are grown in Third World countries. The drug barons involved cut down
forests for space to grow the drugs, thus destroying the natural habitat for thousands
of creatures and upsetting the ecological balance.
It is true that natural forests are cut down for constructive reasons by legitimate
companies, but there are laws in place which compel those companies to plant new
forest as replacements. Drug criminals, needless to say, ignore these and all other
laws. Buying and taking drugs encourages more natural forest to be destroyed.
7. Drugs mess with society
Criminals manufacture and sell drugs. They do not care what effects the drugs have on
their victims; they are only interested in the money. These criminals terrorise
ordinary people and society, using violence against anyone who tries to stop them.
These criminals establish a social environment where there is no respect for law &
order, only respect for violence. This generates fear, suspicion and misery in our
communities. This destabilises society and could lead to its disintegration.
Buying and taking drugs supports this criminal infrastructure.
8. Drugs mess with your love life and fertility.
There is evidence that abuse of drugs can lead to impotence in males. Certainly, abuse of
drugs in females can affect unborn children, with the babies of drug addicts far
more likely to be underweight and to suffer from birth complications.
The damage that drug use can do to one's physical appearance is very obvious.
9. Drugs mess with your hopes and dreams.
Drug addicts, when craving their next fix, often do not care about anything other than the
immediate high demanded. All other considerations, every aspect of normal
human behaviour are ignored in this compulsion. Everyone has hopes and dreams
for the future, but for addicts those hopes and dreams only focus down to where the
next score is coming from. Hopes and dreams for the future? Only despair and
nightmare for addicts.



It can be difficult to say no to alcohol for anyone, but it is especially difficult for those who are quitting or cutting down on alcohol. You can avoid places where drinks are served, but eventually, you will be offered a drink by someone you don't want to explain your alcohol problem to. The best ways to say no are casual, polite responses to an offer, which provide an excuse that can't be argued with. Here are my five top phrases for refusing alcohol.
1. I'm Driving
This is the ultimate excuse. Some people who are quitting alcohol volunteer to be the
designated driver for precisely this reason -- they want to spend time with friends,
but don't want to drink. This response is also great role modelling for others, and
adds to the climate of acceptability of staying sober behind the wheel. Anyone who
pressurizes you to drink after you giving this response isn't worth listening to.
2. No Thanks, I've Just Finished One
What I like about this response is that is so lacking in value judgements about drinking
that no-one can accuse you of being uptight or preachy. How you feel after a drink
is an individual matter, and if you don't want another drink instantly, all it implies is
good personal boundaries around your own comfort. It also shows you are not a
compulsive drinker, and sets the tone for others to pace their drinking too. Yet the
implication is that you might have had a drink if you felt like one, so this works
well for the type of people who tease and berate those in recovery -- the kind of
companions you may not want as friends, but are sometimes unavoidable in a
social situation.
3. I've Had My Limit For Tonight
This is the best response if you regularly drink with the same people, want to control your
drinking, and have set a limit based on your blood alcohol concentration. Others
will learn over time that you will drink only a certain number of drinks within a
certain amount of time, so they can enjoy sharing a drink with you within those
limits. Controlled drinking is a goal for many people with alcohol problems.
4. I Want to Keep a Clear Head
Variations on this response are, "No thanks, I've got work tomorrow," "No thanks, I've
got an early start in the morning," or "No thanks, I don't want a hangover." This is a
great way of letting people know that alcohol does not rule your life, nor will you
let it interfere with your day to day functioning. Keeping a clear head may not be
important to all drinkers, but it should be to you.
5. I Don't Drink
This response take the most courage, and is the most subject to demands for an
explanation. You may have to put up with being asked if you have a drink problem,
you may have your masculinity or sense of fun challenged, or you may be informed
that, "You can have one drink." But it is the all-round best response for anyone who
is serious about recovery from alcoholism, or who wants to put an end to the
nonsense of peer pressure to drink alcohol.
