Here is another news story of how the Left.. after messing up the public enterprises is now eyeing the successful IT sector! The sooner these commie SoBs are put in place the better. If these irresponsible politicians let this go on.. soon the businessmen would question the reason for funding such idiots! And that will be the time when economy will start dictating the politics. So the warning to the Politicians is .. put a cost to your failure YOURSELF and make amends.. or else.. you will be made IRRELEVANT!! The $5.8-billion Indian BPO industry is under threat. While the Left is pressing for unionisation of the sector, the West is demanding strict data protection laws after recent instances of client data theft. Read more
I think as is the wont of most western thinkers and scientists - "frameworking" becomes important for understanding. Aldous Huxley by giving "tenets" to Perennial Philosophy has done that. The Sanatan Dharma concept is a little different in that it says that the truth was when no one knew of it.. and it will be there when everyone would forget about it.. something like Gravity. So in that sense the truth .. is without beginning and without end! Perennial Philosophy (PP) implies a common denomination that is at the base of all religions. Details on PP from Wikipedia Read more

This was a big attack in the way it was undertaken.. daring. This was at a time when Taliban-ISI-Al Qaeda combine was still ruling the shots in the Indian territory when it came to terrorism. Then the 9-11 happened. And the Taliban went into a tail-spin. Now only the remnants of the Paki Terrorists are doing the damage. They can be tackled easily.. although they would want to make their attacks more daring in order to convey the perception that they are still around in large numbers! ====================== Following is the chronology of events in the Red Fort attack case.

DHONI strikes! Here is the Indian scorecard: V. Sehwag = 39 S Tendulkar = 2 M. Dhoni = 183 (15 fours and 10 sixes) R. Dravid = 28 Yuvraj Singh = 18 Venugopal Rao = 19 Total - 303/4 in 46.1 overs. Fairly obvious that M. DHONI was the real winner! The rest just bumped up and down in front of him. Sri-Lanka made 298/4 in 50 overs with K Sangakkara scoring 138 with 13 fours and 2 sixes. D Jayawardene scored a nice 71. Well, this makes a 3-0 sweep until now for India. Quite a performance for a side that was embattled with in-fighting and politics just a few months back!! Read more
