  • Digital Life Is As Fatal As Barmuda Triangle!
    Scientific temper is nothing but questioning. Science is just finding and looking for ways to prove what is being read or heard.
    We are exposed to tons of facts on a daily basis. What we need to do is pause, think and analyse.
    The people we hold on a high ground manage to endorse pseudo-science, and we believe it in the blink of an eye. We need to inculcate the habit of critical thinking.

  • God's Short Letter To A Bet: Mukesh D Sharma
    God's Short Letter To A Bet: Mukesh D Sharma
    Dear Bet
    Do you know the world is hiding her face under a mask. Was that necessary or just to make fun of so-called genius humans?
    I'm sure you are challenging human beings. All businesses are gasping for some respite.
    The situation in almost all countries is same.
    The weaponised-countries are the first in death line. The poor, rich, middle class, and all categories are in the same boat looking at me for mercy.
    Dear, you have taken the right step in causing this humiliation to the man. This was utmost necessary. No doubt about this. I have witnessed the people scrambling for their basic necessities in this pandemic.
    A country, China, has been blamed. So you are not guilty. Let the humans fight and argue themselves.
    This situation is tragic for the migrants and the jobless. The rich are becoming super-rich. The world is watching at an uncertain time.
    I'm not surprised that humans were out of control before this pandemic.
    So this scenario was inevitable to teach them a lesson of fragility of human survival on this planet.
    Dear Bet, your community will be remembered for upcoming generations for this befitting lesson to the humans.
    Man knows the nature fury. These creatures are mostly brute and unkind to the nature.
    Now, you can see, the nature is living freely with much more happiness in absence of the humans.
    This planet was created to dwell all creatures. But the humans have become like Almighty over there.
    You have really taught a lesson to them.
    Dear animals, lastly don't forget this Earth belongs to you first. Time has cure for all. Enjoy your dwellings and nature.
    From
    God

  • Alexa Is A Comfortable Companion In This Cruel Media-Savvy World!
    Voice technologies including Alexa and Siri from Apple will morph from digital butlers into diviners that use the sound of our voices to work out intimate details like our moods, desires and medical conditions. In theory they could one day be used by the police to determine who should be arrested or by banks to say who’s worthy of a mortgage.

  • JUDE BANKS, SUPERHERO: Ann Hood
    In “Jude Banks, Superhero,” we meet 12-year-old Jude, whose heart has been broken by the sudden death of his younger sister. Irrepressible Katie was brave and impulsive, theatrical and smart. Jude, not quite a year older, was content to live in her shadow, even when people looked right past him to say things about Katie like, “She’s going to take over the world someday, isn’t she?” Jude wasn’t jealous of his sister, he was proud. And then, in one terrible moment, Katie was gone.

  • LETTERS TO CAMONDO: Edmund de Waal
    Edmund de Waal’s “Letters to Camondo” will fascinate anyone who has projected complicated emotions onto objects. In his award-winning 2010 book, “The Hare With Amber Eyes,” de Waal traced a set of the Japanese miniature carvings known as netsuke as they got passed from one generation of his family to the next, and ingeniously tied the history of European Jews under Hitler to the fate of these precious curios.

  • Sushi Aunty, The Informer: Mukesh D Sharma
    Evening was peaceful in C-block.
    Street dogs were out of sight. Lockdown curfew had started two days ago. All shops were closed.
    The environment seemed like a desert, spread over thousands of kilometres. Such was the emptyness of those days.
    Sushi aunty was ambling on her first floor. She was her 60s. Her husband was on an evening-walk in the parking lot at the ground-floor.
    She was famous for all local information like a village barber in Indian context. She was talking with her pet-turtle, Tim.
    She was calling him her sweetheart, loving, son etc, etc.
    I was standing in opposite flat in my balcony observing the street hustle and bustle.
    I was smiling at the fortune of Tim who was freely moving with Sushi aunty without any curfew scare.
    Sushi aunty noticed me and... Full story will be updated soon.

  • The Rise and Fall of the Secret Service: Carol Leonnig
    In the 1960s came the slayings of John F. Kennedy, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy; in the 1970s and ’80s, the near-fatal shootings of George Wallace and Ronald Reagan. And yet, since Reagan’s close brush with a deranged gunman in 1981, no American president has been caught in the cross hairs of an assassin. One might think that this owes something to the competence and professionalism of the Secret Service.

  • FREEDOM: Sebastian Junger
    “Freedom,” Junger’s latest book, begins in the middle of a mysterious pilgrimage: “The country opened up west of Harrisburg and suddenly we could drink from streams and build fires without getting caught and sleep pretty much anywhere we wanted. We’d walked the railroad tracks from Washington to Baltimore to Philly and then turned west at the Main Line and made Amish country by winter.” These lines have a lovely roll, the tone is heroic — they made Amish country by winter.
