Our Rise is How We Fall ...

If we're one of the living, we got to walk a thousand miles ... but if we keep on exploiting, we shall not survive more than a while ...

Sustainable development is the only way forward, but India seems to be the last to even coming closer to realizing that. All it realizes is commonwealth games and cutting more trees!!! Sadly so, the economy too failed to collapse just as all other failures, be it tiger preservation, rain forest preservation, Delhi Ridge preservation, sunderbans preservation, coral reef and coastal preservation, river eco-system preservation, and the list goes on ... We do however preserve poverty, unemployment, corrupt systems, inflation, diesel car sales, and the like ...

Choice is ours, to rise towards and leap out to our doom!!!

Enemy's Enemy, My Friend!!!

So it is hereby revealed that the scattered Jedi unite to fight the good fight, a common cause that is sacrosanct by itself, the freedom of software, its applications and related avenues. So does this mean cheaper final products? If its Dell and Acer probably yes, if its Toshiba or Lenovo or even Sony its probably a big no. (HP-Compaq fits just right nowhere!!!)

Ubuntu has already dented the MS bandwagon, probably the Chrome OS would do the same. Not to forget the Android OS on Acer Aspire One D250.

Bond like the best ...

James Bond, the epitome of the debonair, dashing, suave, philanderer, womanizer, decadent, indulgent, macho, technologically geeky and all that associated jazz. He has inspired a host of Rado Wearing, Aston Martin driving, Bollinger drinking and caviar eating hedonistic generation.

What our culture has failed to adopt from that very character described above is his honesty, loyalty, strong sense of honor, sincerity and integrity, despite his meager salary, and being surrounded by red tape and pompous politicians. He signifies the ultimate weapon of justice, wielded by the MI6, yet his license to kill does not corrupt him into making arbitrary, false or biased decisions.

We humans are very easily blown away by superficialism and most often than usual choose the easy path to glory and success, that hurts no only the weak and un-empowered, but also the deserving and honorable.

The recent Commonwealth Games 2010 at Delhi is a perfect example of how our environment is being sacrificed for the sake of conforming to the superficial, while ignoring the actual need for green cover in Delhi.

Medical Profession NOT Medical Business ...

Synonyms? ... nope ... then what's the confusion about?!!

Our nation fails to understand the difference between Medical Profession and Medical Business and the emergence of the latter concept owing to Patent Protection and weak Drug Price Control Order, 1995.

It is sad to see that the world's largest democracy can not become "by the people and for the people"!!!
