Tectonic Shifts: October 2015
http://tectonicshifts.blogspot.com/2015_10_01_archive.html
Of life changing events. And events changing life. Of life. And all that's in between. Thursday, October 22, 2015. Why is it the Internet of a Festival? If you’ve been with me the past few days as I went round the blog floor in nine nights of dancing and corresponding colours, thanks for making it to the final culminating day. The nine nights end with Dassehra – the final 10. Day – again celebrated differently in different parts of India. Here are the examples:. And this one is simple! I know this festiv...

Tectonic Shifts: How do I write, when and... why!
http://tectonicshifts.blogspot.com/2015/10/how-do-i-write-when-and-why.html
Of life changing events. And events changing life. Of life. And all that's in between. Tuesday, October 13, 2015. How do I write, when and. why! I've been asked how I get the time to blog fairly regularly. And I have an answer that does not make sense (at least initially). And by traffic I don't mean the social media traffic of readers that beat their way to my blog. I mean genuine horrendous crawly mind-numbing traffic! Once that is done, it's a few revisions, few arrangements of the line, sending one e...

Rules of the Universe: March 2012
http://rulesoftheuniverse.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Rules of the Universe. Sunday, March 11, 2012. RULE NUMBER SEVENTY TWO. Rule #72: You don't have to be right to write. So what's stopping you? This "filterlessness" (as I like to call it) results in two things:. 1 People who have great talent gone unnoticed are finally allowed to showcase their work or at least create an online portfolio of it. This can be shared amongst readers who like the genre in which they write, or for professional purposes. Beneficial? Form of human communication. They have season...

sunstruck: Indian consumers voice concerns over GM food
http://runawaysun.blogspot.com/2011/03/indian-consumers-voice-concerns-over-gm.html
A worldview with a view of the world. Indian consumers voice concerns over GM food. What with cricket, scams and forthcoming state elections ruling the headlines, the debate over introducing genetically-modified (GM) food/crops in India is almost forgotten. Is that a good thing? Depends on which side you’re on. BRAI is expected to act as the sole agency responsible for the regulatory system, including research, transport, import, manufacture and the use of GM crops in India.]. The meeting was organised b...

sunstruck: What's new
http://runawaysun.blogspot.com/2010/04/whats-new.html
A worldview with a view of the world. I hear people declare these days, “consumers trust products and brand recommendations from people they know” (or words to this effect), as if it’s some kind of revelation. But, hasn’t this always been the case? Haven’t people always consulted their family, friends, neighbours and colleagues for advice and recommendations on products and services they intended to buy and use? What’s new about that? I'm reading: What's new. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

sunstruck: November 2009
http://runawaysun.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
A worldview with a view of the world. The use of fear as a weapon is nothing new. Not just in war or by totalitarian governments upon their people or by the mafia or by landlords over farmers and peasants in agrarian societies like India, but even in cases as simple as parents disciplining their children or children bullying other children. In short, the belief that the use of fear and violence is for good. This is where I see the greatest evil. Evil in their blood. Although we tend to single out Adolf H...

sunstruck: September 2009
http://runawaysun.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
A worldview with a view of the world. District 9 busts the myth of good and evil. This year, from an unexpected quarter of the world, comes a film that takes head-on, and then shatters, the myth of good and evil. That film is District 9. And it comes from South Africa. What’s more surprising is that District 9. Although disturbing to watch and, in places, heart-wrenchingly emotional, this is where District 9. End up believing that being human is, perhaps, not such a good thing after all. In war, if there...

sunstruck: Surviving the 21st century
http://runawaysun.blogspot.com/2011/02/surviving-21st-century.html
A worldview with a view of the world. Surviving the 21st century. The impact of the internet, the mobilephone and air travel is beyond doubt. Technology has indeed changed our lives: helping us to connect with our family and friends, to conduct business speedily, to have access to education and healthcare which were beyond our reach earlier. What this means is that technology has liberated us to an unimaginable degree. Now we can hear what’s going on, and be heard, in all corners of the world. This is no...
