You’re seated in an exam, and the examiner just announces that the time allocated for completion has been shortened by 1 hour. Sweat sweat, your exam just became more difficult to pass. 5 minutes later, the ruthless examiner again announces that time allocated has been shortened by another hour. Now, making passing grade seems impossible to you. Instead of passing, you pass out.
Shorten the time-frame for almost anything in life, and doing that particular activity properly and well becomes more and more difficult. What if time was taken out of the equation for the above examination? Well, chances of making passing grade just got a huge fillip, because over infinite time, everyone would eventually clear the exam!
Now substitute “examination” with “investment”. Hmmmm, what do we have here? Is it easier to make money from an investment, if time were taken out of the equation?
After the great depression, those businesses that actually recovered, took 20 years or more to do so. Many never recovered. In investing, a 20 year time-frame is definitely taking time out of the equation. So here we have an example where the answer to the question asked is a most definite no. But, that was then. I mean, pre computer-age, pre internet, pre everything. What’s the world like now? Information flows at the speed of thought. Business cycles are much, much shorter. The Fed creates bubbles, and after they pop, crises happen. So, now we rephrase the question, pertaining to today’s scenario. Today, is a 20 year investment horizon going to give you better odds of making money?
One thing is clear, if your horizon is long enough, today you are going to see the underlying going through at least a few cycles. A buy low – sell high strategy has the best chances today of rewarding you very much within your lifetime.
But, what is low, and what is high? Is 1226 dollars an ounce too high a price to enter gold? Or, should one wait for Bharati Airtel to fall to Rs. 250 before making a contrarian purchase, or is the current Rs. 300 the bottom for Bharati? Nobody knows the answers to these questions.
With a long enough investment horizon where you’ve taken time out of the equation, you’ve simultaneously removed these questions from the equation too, or have you? Let’s say you go ahead with your contrarian purchase of Bharati at Rs. 300 and the scrip plunges to 150. Business cycle is short, remember? Today, realistically speaking, telecom could take maximum 5 years to hit a high in the cycle, so you could tank up on another load of Bharati at Rs. 150 and wait for the cycle to hit a high before offloading. Needless to say, before making any contrarian purchase, you should be convinced that the company won’t go bust in the current low of the business cycle. That’s one risk that looms while making contrarian purchases, but if you do your research properly, perhaps one in ten of your contrarian picks will be so unlucky, and those are perfectly acceptable odds.
What about the other end of the barrel? Gold is at an all-time high, and nobody knows where it is going from here. The whole world is confused. What if you take the plunge and enter gold at 1226 dollars an ounce? Now, two things can happen. If gold rises further you make money immediately. Let’s say gold peaks at 2000 dollars an ounce, and then the cycle in gold starts going towards the lower side. In this case, one could keep booking profit all the way up, and hopefully one could be out fully before or even at the peak. In the other scenario, gold peaks where it currently is, and starts going down. You start losing money on your investment. Let’s say it bottoms at 800 dollars an ounce in one year’s time. You’ve been sitting it out. What are the chances of you making money on your investment, and that too soon, let’s say within another year? Based on sheer gut feel, I’d say your chances are high. What’s my rationale for saying this?
Over the last 100 years, gold has given returns in spurts, only to fall back to lows again. It’s 100 year return has been pathetic, only just about in the black. It’s the time it begins to spurt that one needs to look out for. That occurs in times of uncertainty, which is now. If one allows gold leeway on the time-axis in uncertain times, one new high could be taken out after the other till stability and certainty return. So, if your entry into gold crashes on your face immediately, just keep sitting it out if uncertainty on the world currency of choice front keeps looming, and eventually, you’ll have recovered your principal and perhaps made a little money. The worst-case scenario for you here could be that the world suddenly discovers a currency of choice other than gold, gold crashes to god knows what level, and remains there for another 20 years. That would be a black swan event which looks unlikely currently, because the world is far away from finding a currency of choice, and till it does, one can keep stretching the time axis of a gold investment.
If your picks are solid, the market will reward you for patience more often than it will not. So couple patience with excellent research, and then sit back and relax!

The latest to catch our eye is the VeloMini, a light-weight folding electric bike featuring a 180 watt brushless hub motor that will transport a person from eight to ten miles at speeds of up to 12 mph (19 km/h). Up-to-date pricing and reviews for folding electric bikes on the market can be found at the folding bike models website.
The e-bike surprisingly doesn’t look like one, especially given that the rear-wheel motor is concealed from view, and the Flit’s cylindrical battery was designed to beautifully slide into a hollow space inside the bike’s frame, hiding it from view. Touted as a new generation of foldable e-bikes, and with enough awards to prove just how ground-breaking it is, the FLIT-16 is the good old electrically assisted bicycle in a brand new avatar.

If you want to go any faster than that – and I promise you won’t – you’ll need to put some physical effort in.

In 2013, Raptosh was named poet laureate of Boise, Idaho. In an interview with the Idaho Statesman, she noted Idaho’s influence on her work: “I like the leveling influence of living here. If you try to show people your importance, they don't buy it. That democratizing effect does influence my poetry. I find it affords me an expansiveness in terms of voice that might not be there if I were in a different landscape.”
Raptosh’s honors and awards include fellowships from the Idaho Commission on the Arts; she serves as Idaho Writer in Residence (2013-2016) and was named Boise’s first ever Poet Laureate in 2013. She teaches at the College of Idaho.

Friends. We’ve had a ton of interest in keto-friendly goodies, and we want everyone to know that we hear you + we’re super working on it.
The Ketogenic Diet is based on consuming the following foods on the regular:
· Good fats, sourced from organic, pasture-raised, grass-fed meats, as well as fish, free-range eggs, coconuts, avocado, butter, ghee and olives
· Protein, from the same clean sources as listed above
· Fresh, high-fibre veg, with an emphasis on leafy greens
· Nuts and seeds, especially from fattier sources, like macadamia and almonds
The idea is to eat a low-carb diet that avoids starchy veg, sugar and processed ingredients, and instead focuses on moderate protein and high fat. In short, this magic combo works to put your body into a state of “ketosis”, finding its main energy source from liver-producing ketones. This process all revolves around the consumption of good, healthy fats. (Bam. Science.)
(This site is a great starting point for basic information, if interested!)
The culinary challenge for Yours Truly is to create products that avoid these things, while also incorporating the ideal ingredients and ratios above.
A few things we want to offer y’all include keto-friendly brownies, sandwich bread and perhaps a carrot cake?
Where We’re At
Currently, the closest thing to a keto-friendly item we have on our menu is our Cashew Bar. While it isn’t sugar-free, it is grain-free, and crazy good.
Keep up to date with what we’re making and serving on the daily, by checking out our menu on our website, or follow us on Insta—we post often, and everything is up-to-date.
(A large ‘thank you’ for your patience while we fine tune our keto-friendly menu!)
ALSO: try our brand new small-batch, gluten-free granola! Our neighbours The Habit Project is using it to create their yummy smoothie bowls, so you know it’s good.

Bitcoin’s sentiment is not just a lagging indicator
Glassnode’s report points out that the bitcoin network’s health and liquidity have both reduced since last week, however, the sentiment remains the same. This is an interesting development that is one-sided, ie., only happens during price ascent.
Let’s address why this is the case with the sentiment in this article.
Sentiment is something that changes when there is a sudden movement or price crossing a certain psychological level(s). In the last week, bitcoin consistently surged higher during the 1st half, however, these surges are being undone in the latter half of the week.
Although the undoing of the surges is taking place slowly, the sentiment will not change with it. Hence, this is why we are seeing a constant sentiment level.
In fact, the FGI shows that people are still greedy  and it has increased from 61 during the last week.
While bitcoin’s price is slowly dropping, here’s how hodlers or people who invested are doing – they have already taken profits or are still taking, which explains the slow drop in prices. The same can be seen in the MPL indicator, which shows that the profit -line [green] has topped off and the loss-line [red] has bottomed off too.
Since February, the profit-line has constantly formed a higher high since Feb 2020. The last time this happened was from Feb 2019 to July 2019.
Moreover, the loss-line has reached levels last seen in December 2017. If the same takes place now, which it might, considering the Profit-line topping, we can expect bitcoin to drop lower. This scenario fits, perfectly into the larger picture of bitcoin, which has formed a bearish rising wedge.
Moreover, the daily SOPR shows a reduction, which falls in line with the reducing price and MPL. Overall, the sentiment indicator is a lagging indicator at times like these, however, during crashes, it adjusts very quickly due to a sudden movement. Either way, bitcoin has topped off at $14,000 and we might see some consolidation before it makes another move, bullish or bearish.

Continuing to rise for a fourth session in a row, gold prices moved higher on Tuesday as global equity markets re-assessed the severity of the coronavirus outbreak and its impact on world economy. MCX gold futures rose by as much as Rs 142 per 10 grams - or 0.34 per cent - from their previous close to touch Rs 42,098 per 10 grams before giving up some of those gains in late-morning deals. At 11:17 am, the gold futures contract (delivery on April 3) traded 0.26 per cent (Rs 111.00 per 10 grams) higher at Rs 42,067.00 per 10 grams, compared with its previous close of Rs 41,956 per 10 grams. Analysts said the fear of coronavirus outbreak spreading beyond China and hurting world economy increased the yellow metal's appeal as a safe haven.
According to Mumbai-based industry body IBJA or India Bullion and Jewellers Association, the indicative selling price of gold jewellery stood at Rs 42,140 per 10 grams (excluding GST) in the morning session.
Gold jewellery prices vary in different parts of India - the second largest consumer of the precious metal - due to factors such as excise duty, state taxes and making charges.
What Analysts Say On Current Gold Rate
Analysts say gold rates may witness some volatility in the near term as investors assess the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on consumer demand.
“COMEX gold traded moderately higher near $1600/oz as global central banks including Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of Japan and Bank of England expressed willingness to take measures to mitigate the impact of virus outbreak. Weakness in US dollar index due to Fed's rate cut expectations also lent support," said Ravindra Rao, VP-head commodity research at Kotak Securities.
"However, ETF outflows and concerns about consumer demand in India and China weighing on the gold price. Gold may witness choppy trade amid mixed factors however general bias may be on the upside unless virus risks abate,” Mr Rao added.

This quilt has been a long time coming. Back when my husband and I got married, my dearest friend from my high school days gifted us with a beautiful, bed-size quilt. So when she got married in New York City last summer, I knew it was my chance to return the favor and make her and her new husband a quilt.
My friend loves purple (this wall quilt was for her), so I looked around on Design Seeds for purple inspiration. I wound up using this color palette to inspire my fabric pull. My friend had mentioned her love of Anna Maria Horner's feathers, so I knew I wanted to use those in the quilt. When I discovered how long it took to make each feather, and knew that I needed to wind up with a queen-size quilt, I decided to revise my plan a bit. I made stacks of feathers, flying geese, and half-square triangles, and then began piecing improvisationally, adding blocks of fabric as I went along to fill space.
The results were admittedly chaotic---so much randomness!---but completely different than anything I've done before.
Since it was so large, and I'd already done so much piecing, I decided to use a purple sheet for a seamless backing. I was pleasantly surprised with how soft it was! Lindsay of Eileen Quilts quilted it for me and I bound it with one of Carolyn Friedlander's cross-hatch prints. I added a hand-embroidered label with the couple's wedding date, along with a new leather Salty Oat tag.
I gifted it to my friend the weekend before last (over a year after her wedding---oops!), while visiting my parents in New Hampshire. The timing worked out well, since the changing fall foliage provided the perfect backdrop for photos.
I'm so excited to share today's quilt with you! I started this quilt earlier this year, on a quest to clear out my scrap bins---at least enough to fit the lids back on top. While I didn't manage to do that---my scrap pile keeps growing!---I did fall in love with this scrappy quilt.
The quilt pattern is "Up, Up, and Away," by Amanda Jean Nyberg, and is found in the book Sunday Morning Quilts. I paired white, cream, and khaki squares with little triangles of color, ranging from vintage to modern fabrics. Piecing took forever---lots of trimming and experimenting with the layout---but I think it was well worth the effort.
I used a saturated and bold blue Marimekko print for the back and a coordinating cobalt-blue-and-white stripe for the binding. I stuck with my favorite cross-hatch quilting, which added a nice texture to the quilt.

Welcome to Mothership: Parenting stories you actually want to read, whether you're thinking kids or not, from egg-freezing to taking home baby and beyond. Because motherhood is a big if — not when — and it's time we talked about it that way.
The “you do you” ethos of Gen Z has officially won out. Just think about it — you can be a brand if you want, or embrace the feminism of being unlikable. Choose your pronoun. Get married. Or maybe don't. Practice radical self-love or body neutrality. And the same goes for motherhood: There are Tiger Moms and Montessori moms. Co-sleeping moms and cry-it-out moms. Adoptive, foster, and step moms, and of course dads.
While we could argue there are limitless choices of how to parent, the expectation of becoming a parent remains a societal sticking point — babies, as cute as they are, divide us into the haves and the have nots. And we at Refinery29’s newly debuted Mothership want to change that: Motherhood is a big IF, after all, not a when. It's time we talked about it that way.
Among us are women who have kids and who don’t; who are parenting accidentally or still puzzling over whether to try. Some have miscarried — literally between our walls — or struggled to conceive for a decade. So while some parents debate the minutiae of motherhood, seeking control over what is ultimately totally beyond it, we want to talk about what else is going on...like, really going on.
In 2016, Refinery29 polled over 3,000 women ages 18 to 49 in cities across the U.S. and U.K. to find out where having their first child landed on a list of important life goals. It was number 16 out of 20 — behind setting financial goals (No. 1), buying a home (No. 9), having fun (No. 14), and travel (No. 15). Does that mean these women are opting out of motherhood? Probably not. (Pew Center analysis of data from the National Center for Health Statistics says there are more than 16 million millennial moms in the U.S.) But it does reveal that while what it means to be a parent — or a self-possessed and successful woman — has evolved and expanded over the years, the stories portraying these milestones and expectations have been sluggish to keep up. So it’s hard to envision what being a mom will even look like before we’re faced with a first smear of meconium. (Baby’s first poop! And now you know.)
We know you. We know you have so many pursuits vying for your time and attention, and having kids is not just expected anymore. Your value isn’t entirely wrapped up in if, when, and how you parent. You’re putting money in the bank to finance the future you want and putting eggs in the bank to take the pressure out of dating. But still: Women who don’t want to have children are told they’ll change their minds someday. The stats bear out that these conversations will come up, and we want to keep having them — but without all the expecting.
Because when we prize one woman’s lifestyle as #goals, we are telling ourselves and others that anything less, that doing things differently, is to have failed. We’re sorting one another into these identity groups based on breast or bottle, C-section or “natural,” working or staying home, childless, childfree, child-averse, meanwhile forgetting we’re still just people continuing to be who we are, before, during, after, and to the left of having kids. And, importantly, that some of us are on a path going in a completely different direction.
If I may sound like a total mom for a moment: You stop that right now. That’s enough! And that’s why Refinery29 is joining this conversation: to change it; to make space for adoption, surrogacy, for leaning in and opting out; for single and LGBTQ parenting, for staying home, for pregnancy losses and terminations, and the ways this can all complicate partnerships rather than always sweetening them. To explore why there’s so much genetic testing; the prevalence and yet somehow, still, silence around fertility fears and struggles, postpartum depression, and abortion. In the hopes of really talking about our choices, and listening, too.
We want to move beyond the labels to the lives beneath, unearthing the true stories you deserve to have access to while charting your own course. Whether or not you want kids, you’re probably curious what sex after childbirth is really like. Or what egg-freezing is all about. And how much this is all going to cost you. (A lot.)
So take what you want and leave the rest. Like a buffet, only instead of weird Jell-o flavors and sad mixed lettuces, you can choose your own adventure through adulthood. It’s what you’ve been doing all along, only now with the same license to live once you have kids or don’t.
This is Mothership. Come aboard.

COVID-19 is exposing the dark underbelly of the web for all to see, and millions of people are suffering because of it. You have to be pretty twisted to try and scam people out of their savings during the worst economic crisis in the past 50 years, but that’s exactly what these cybercriminals are doing by leveraging the pandemic to their advantage.
Millions of jobs may have been lost in the past few months, but recovery efforts are already kicking into gear. Financial relief like stimulus checks have been put into motion, and new jobs like contact tracing are opening up. Unfortunately, scammers are paying attention to the news, too. Tap or click here to see how they’re stealing unemployment benefits.
And now, the vital work performed by contact tracers is being hijacked by enterprising scammers desperate for your cash. They’re impersonating contact tracers as they try to steal your info, and they’re pulling out all the stops to seem as convincing as possible. Will anybody trust a call from real contact tracers after dealing with these scammers?
The only contacts these scammers will trace are ones they can steal from
The FTC has issued a warning regarding the rise of a new kind of scam that’s just timely enough to damage American recovery efforts. By posing as contact tracers, these fraudsters are tricking people into ponying up personal information and breaking the trust in real contact tracers that can help keep the country safe and healthy.
Here’s how it works: Scammers will send you a text message with a generic boilerplate spiel about how you were exposed to someone who tested positive for COVID-19. The message will include a link where you can supposedly learn more or sign up for testing.
But clicking the link is extremely dangerous. These text messages contain malicious links that can install tracking software on your device capable of stealing personal information. Some may even include links to phishing websites where you’ll input the information yourself, which makes it even harder to catch the people responsible.
Ultimately, the FTC says it fears this new effort may make people wary to take real contact tracing efforts seriously as the pandemic drags on. It’s a shame because this vital job not only can help slow the spread of new cases, it’s high-paying and perfect for many Americans that may be out of work. Tap or click here to see how much contact tracers get paid.
How can I spot a scam contact tracer?
Thankfully, the FTC issued detailed guidelines on what to expect from legitimate contact tracing efforts. Messages from local health departments will not include links whatsoever, and will instead give you a heads up that a call is coming your way — complete with the phone number it will come from. As of now, scammers haven’t caught on to this yet.
When a real tracer calls you, they won’t ask you for any financial or identifying information like a Social Security Number. What they may ask you for is whether or not you want to enroll in text alerts going forward. Any caller who asks for personally identifying information aside from that is a scammer, and you should hang up immediately.
Here are some red flags to watch out for if you get a text claiming to be from a contact tracer:
- Poor English: Many scam operations are based outside the U.S. Even if they have an American area code, it’s possible to spoof it easily. Watch out for unusual spelling and grammar, especially when it claims to come from a government source.
- A link: Real contact tracing texts are notifications of an upcoming call. They will not include links for you to sign up or provide information. Ignore any texts that include a link.
- Requests for personal data: The only information you’ll be asked during a legitimate contact tracing session is who you’ve been in contact with, and potentially their phone numbers. Even then, this kind of information would be asked during the call, not upfront in a text. Ignore any texts that request personal information about you or others.
- Alarmist language: Some of these texts will use frightening or sensationalized language to get you to act urgently. If you get scared enough to click the link they include, you’re already in trouble. Real contact tracers will work with you professionally and refrain from alarming you. They have to do this all day, after all. They don’t need the stress.
- Requests for money: Anything asking you to submit a payment of some kind can be disregarded. Contact tracing programs shouldn’t cost you anything to be a part of. Any requests for payments in the form of Bitcoin or gift cards are also major red flags.
To protect yourself, the FTC also recommends enabling two-factor authentication for all your important accounts, as well as potentially activating “Do Not Disturb” on your device to block spam text messages. Tap or click here to see how to activate 2FA for your favorite online accounts.
In the end, these scams can’t hurt you so long as you avoid being tricked. Since fraudsters around the world are stepping up their tactics, this won’t be an easy task. Stay safe, stay vigilant and whatever you do, please don’t click on links you don’t recognize. It’s a recipe for disaster that no one can afford today.

Mumbai, May 26, 2014: Mobile phones, have made their users "available" 24x7 creating the opportunity to make marketing more targeted and personal. To encourage consumers to buy through their mobile devices and further amplify m-commerce, a new breed of Mobile Remarketing tools allow brands to attract and retain customers across all buying cycles both on the portal and through apps.
Leading Asia-Pacific player in remarketing, Komli Media, has announced a significant addition to its Remarketing Demand Side Platform (RDSP) with the launch of Mobile Remarketing capabilities. The new offering provides marketers and app developers an efficient and cost effective solution to re-engage with their users on mobile web and applications. With the launch of mobile remarketing, Komli’s RDSP, now enables marketers to power advanced remarketing scenarios across display, social and mobile from a single cohesive, transparent interface.
Marketers can reactivate their dormant app users or show highly personalized ads to re-engage with their existing app and web users to drive conversions from their mobile assets. Komli’s mobile remarketing models combine its proprietary audience segmentation techniques with deep understanding of mobile user behavior to ensure maximum ROI. Additionally, existing sophisticated features like audience segmentation, campaign management, dynamic creative and advanced reporting can be easily extended to mobile campaigns without any custom code or SDK integration.
Komli has released a whitepaper titled ‘Mobile Remarketing Challenges and Opportunities’ by surveying marketers across India and Southeast Asia. You can find a link to the paper here.
The whitepaper reveals some interesting facts:
- Mobile is contributing to about 30% of the traffic but only 20% of the total transactions.
- Marketers prefer creating mobile optimized website before creating native apps.
- 60% of the marketers who don’t have an app plan to build one in the next 6-12 months.
- Small screen size and messaging to users that mobile transactions are safe and secure are thebiggest challenges marketers face while creating mobile specific experiences.
- While 22% of marketers have tried mobile remarketing, only half of those have deep link enabled apps. Deep linking enables mobile app to open to specific location (e.g. a product page) when user clicks on a mobile in-app ad.
Says Ashwin Puri, VP Remarketing & Mobile, Komli Media: “In the next 12 months, e see over 50% of e-commerce traffic and transactions coming from mobile and hence remarketing on mobile is going to be key to scaling the business. Komli’s mobile remarketing solution combines the highly engaging nature of mobile with the performance driven DSP approach to make the most of this growing user base across all mobile platforms including smartphones and tablets on Android and iOS.

HANOI, Vietnam — After coming under fire for seemingly questioning the assessment that Russia meddled in the 2016 election, President Donald Trump on Sunday said he trusts the current leadership of the United States’ intelligence agencies.
During a press conference here, Trump sought to clarify comments he made aboard Air Force One on Saturday, in which he said of Putin denying influencing the election, “Every time he sees me he says, ‘I didn’t do that,’ and I really believe, that when he tells me that, he means it.”
On Sunday, Trump said those comments were not meant to imply he personally believes that Russia didn’t seek to manipulate the election. Instead, Trump said he was simply stating that he believes Putin is being sincere when he says he wasn’t involved.
“What I said there is that I believe [Putin] believes that and that’s very important for somebody to believe. I believe that he feels he and Russia did not meddle in the election,” Trump said during a press conference with Vietnamese President Tran Dai Quang.

He continued, “As to whether I believe it or not, I’m with our agencies, especially as currently constituted with their leadership. I believe in our intelligence agencies. I’ve worked with them very strongly.”
Trump’s Saturday comments sparked outrage in the United States. Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) and others strongly criticized the president for seeming to side with Putin over U.S. intelligence agencies. Current and former U.S. officials have said they believe with high confidence that Russia sought to manipulate the election in Trump’s favor.
During his Air Force One comments, the president slammed past leadership of U.S. intelligence agencies, suggesting they were out to get him. “I mean, give me a break. They’re political hacks,” he said.
But on Sunday, he said he’s comfortable with the current crop of officials in charge of the agencies, who have continued to maintain Russia tried to influence the election.
“As currently led by fine people, I believe very much in our intelligence agencies,” Trump said in Hanoi.
The president reiterated his concerns that the focus on election meddling could harm U.S.-Russia relations, adding that Moscow could be powerful ally. And he appeared to sympathize with Russia for having been heavily sanctioned by the United States and other countries.
“Russia has been very, very heavily sanctioned and they were sanctioned at a very high level and that took place very recently. It’s now time to get back to healing a world that is shattered and broken,” he said.
Trump added, “And I feel that having Russia in a friendly posture, as opposed to always fighting with them, is an asset to the world and an asset to our country, not a liability.”
Trump also weighed in on his recent tweet asserting that he is trying to be friends with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.
“I think anything is a possibility,” he said. “Strange things happen in life.”

Rationalists in India are under fire from Hindu right wing organizations. A little over a month ago, noted litterateur and rationalist, Malleshappa M Kalburgi was shot dead at point-blank range at his house in the southern Indian state of Karnataka. Kalburgi had several run-ins with Hindu groups over his remarks on idol worship.]
A few days later, another rationalist in Karnataka, K S Bhagwan received a letter threatening him with death for his “derogatory” remarks on the Bhagawad Gita. In February this year, Govind Pansare, a progressive public intellectual, was shot dead in Kolhapur in Maharashtra. Two years ago, Narendra Dabholkar was gunned down in Pune. A doctor-turned-activist, Dabholkar campaigned in rural Maharashtra against religious superstitions and black magic.
Violence targeting rationalists, progressive artists and intellectuals who challenge the narrow conservatism of fundamentalists or criticize their bigotry has grown in India over the last couple of decades, especially in recent years. The rising influence of Hindutva (literally Hinduness), an ideology that believes that India should exclusively follow the laws and principles of the majority Hindu faith, since the early 1990s and the decisive victory of the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in general elections last year appear to have given a fillip to such violence.
Activists of the Vishva Hindu Parishad and the Bajrang Dal, which are constituents of the Sangh Parivar, a family of Hindu organizations of which the BJP is a part, have been brazen in their celebration of the killing of rationalists.
“Mock Hinduism and die a dog’s death,” Bhuvith Shetty, a Bajrang Dal leader tweeted following Kalburgi’s killing. The Sri Ram Sene, a right-wing goon squad, has threatened to “chop off” Bhagwan’s legs if he continues to criticize Hinduism and to “cut off the tongue” of writers who insult Hindu gods.
Such threats are issued with impunity with no action taken against the terror being unleashed. Indeed, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who otherwise never misses an opportunity to put out his views on twitter, has been silent on the killing of rationalists and the threats being issued by outfits that are ideological kin of his party.
It is not just Indians who are caught in the crosshairs of the Hindu right. Noted American Indologist Wendy Doniger incurred the wrath of Hindu groups for her book, The Hindus: An Alternative History, for its focus on “sex and eroticism.” Under pressure, the book’s publisher Penguin-India withdrew the book and destroyed all its remaining copies.
Clearly, the Hindutva outfits have little understanding of the essence of Hinduism, its liberal schools of philosophy that allowed for atheism/ agnosticism or its historical openness to multiple interpretations of its sacred texts. Hinduism is comfortable with artistic depictions of nudity and sexuality as evident in temple sculptures. Yet these outfits took umbrage with Maqbool Fida Husain’s depiction of Hindu goddesses in the nude.
Interestingly, Husain’s paintings were not controversial in the 1970s or 1980s when they were completed. It was only with the rise of Hindutva in the 1990s that his paintings were vandalized. Husain’s paintings, like Doniger’s research or Dabholkar’s activism, are useful for the Hindutva groups to stir anger among the masses and mobilize them.
The attacks on rationalists and progressive writers and artists reflect the expanding influence of Hindutva and also undermine India’s democracy. Freedom of expression is central to the health of a democracy and this is under severe threat in India today.
There are parallels between the killing of rationalists in India and of atheist/ secular bloggers in Bangladesh. In both countries, radical outfits that claim to be acting in defense of religious faiths and beliefs are unleashing violence and terror.
However, unlike in Bangladesh, where the Ansarullah Bangla Team, which masterminded the killing of several secular bloggers, was banned under the country’s anti-terrorism laws, in India, organizations that are behind the killing of rationalists run free.
Investigations into the murders of the rationalists have moved at a snail’s pace in India and it is only a fortnight ago that police arrested an activist of the Sanatan Sanstha, a Hindutva outfit, in connection with Pansare’s killing. They are probing a link between his murder and that of Dhabolkar and Kalburgi.
The Sanatan Sanstha claims on its website to be a spiritual organization. Its actions indicate that it is a terrorist organization; it was involved in bomb attacks a few years ago.
There are growing calls to ban this organization. Such calls were ignored by the Congress Party when it was in power. The BJP government is even less likely to ban the outfit.
After all, the Sanatan Sanstha is an ideological ally. Besides, declaring the Sanatan Sanstha a terrorist organization will require the BJP government to put its fraternal outfits as well as itself under the scanner.

He is frequent acts of selflessness, and to Huck, he is more like a father than a friend. When the time he was caught and sent to the jail, Huck decided to against the society to help Jim to escape. For helping him, Huck has to choose from what is right to do, and what is good for his friend. “Alright, then, I’ll go to hell” (193). Jim teaches Huck how to make right decisions, how to treat people equally no matter what race they are, and the love of friendship.
He felt abandoned because he also knew himself that he was only taken in by family for his work ethics but not for the caring and love of a child. The lack of love that he received at a young age for him influenced his decision of running away and living out into the dessert at the age of fourteen. This situation of having no one to depend on or depending on him has given him freedom and independence but has also betrayed his caring and loves towards others. Nat Swanson is ushered by a stray dog through his lonely journey. The impact of the dog accompanying him shows the lack of communication that Nat Swanson has.
Troy affects everyone's life with his choices, his mind set and past experiences in life which causes a negative affect on them while at the same time it matures them to grow up. Troy's life growing up was one to experience in order to understand his actions in his future. His father picked cotton and working was the only thing his father seemed cared about. All his father wanted was for you to learn how to walk then you were off to work. Troy tells his son about his father “...he was trapped and I think he knew it, but I'll say this for him...he felt responsibility toward us.
While reading Into The Wild, although I couldn’t particularly relate to Chris’ passion for secluded living, I was able to sympathize with the ultimate compulsion that lead him to live in the Magic Bus in Alaska. Chris McCandless' relationship with his father was strained at best. Chris was an opinionated, determined, and stubborn young man with high ideals and little room for compromise. His father was a hardworking man with high standards who shared his son's inability to compromise. Chris was always critical of his parents and their lifestyle, but that criticism turned to outright anger when Chris learned that his father had lived a double life with another family for a time.
Adam has finally has his father and son moment with one of his children that he is grateful to express himself to his son Cal. By saying he trusts Cal he has gain even more love and forgiveness for not being with his children for many years. Plus, Adam is able to not be like his father but instead be the opposite with just one of his children. Cal – “He though sardonically of telling him about his mother, to see how he would handle I, but he withdrew the though quickly. He didn’t think Aron could handle it at all,” (Steinbeck 586).
From this, both young boys learn about courage, the preciousness of life and about forgiveness. The Gran Torino and black coat are both symbols of the men themselves. The Gran Torino shows that Walt is a man who is well kept with charm whom though has been hiding away for many years. The black coat shows that Elijah is a man who is hiding something, a man who is different from the rest. In this instance it is seen that whilst neither Joe nor his father learned anything positive from his actions, Joe, Elijah, Walt and Thao all learn from each other as a result of the elders Post Traumatic Stress.
Even though the families were faced with all kinds of challenges they survived because they became united. The Joad family unites with themselves because they do not want to bear the grief of Grampa’s death individually. Other families unite with complete strangers when they get to the roadside camps and the Hoovervilles. Tom Joad unites himself with all mankind when he determines that his people are all people. When faced with hard times and challenges it is sometimes hard for a single person to overcome some things, which is why people
Black men were not men at all, but they were property. Huck struggled with this throughout the book as he felt guilt and condemnation for not returning Jim back to his rightful owner, Widow Douglas. But even in the peculiar relationship, it was confusing as to which would be the father figure, Huck or Jim. Jim definitely filled the role as protector, when he shielded Huck from seeing corpse of his godforsaken Pap. Jim also displayed the image of father that would give up his own life for his boy when stayed with Tom after he got shot.
Gilgamesh never thought about how hard his people had it, and he would have continued to think that they had it easier than they really did. He would have never figured it out unless he had the experience, which he did thanks to Enkidu. In the end, Enkidu really changed Gilgamesh’s perspective on the world and they way things are when you’re not being waited on all the time. Enkidu made Gilgamesh realize that he had to help others out and can’t just be helped. He made him know what it was like to have a loving friend, and the devastation of loosing one.

BMW 7 Series Upgraded With Some Gorgeous Vossen WheelsJune 10, 2017
Shorter after the all-new BMW 7 Series rolled off the factory floor, the aftermarket industry was already preparing a series of mods for the flagship BMW. One of them was Vossen Wheels who has already released a number of high-profile BMW 7 Series builds to date. Now, with the 2018 BMW 7 Series, the work continued in the direction of giving the stylish and classy luxury sedan a dose of aggressive looks.
For this particular BMW 750i, the choice had to coincide with its high-performance nature. The BMW 750 is powered by a 4.4-liter BMW TwinPower Turbo V8 engine, delivering 445 horsepower. This is enough to propel the vehicle from 0-62mph (0-100km/h) in just 4.3 seconds. With an electronically limited top speed of 155mph (250km/h) the 7 Series with this engine option will be a great, albeit comfortable, autobahn rocket by all means. For some, this is also the perfect foundation for an aftermarket build.
This 7 Series was taken to Eccentrical to get a set of custom wheels installed, which will not only enhance the sportiness of the 7er, while keeping it clean and classy. The owner of this BMW 7 Series went with a set of Vossen VFS-2 lightweight cast wheels. These come in sizes of 22×9 and 22×10.5 in the front and rear, respectively. The Polished Aluminum finish works perfectly with the Carbon Black Metallic 7 Series. You can take a look at the entire media gallery of this project right below.

With 2021 behind us it seems like a whirlwind, even though more homes were sold in Florida during 2021, than in the past couple of years’ worth. Many people decided to sell homes they own in other states for large profits, benefiting like many sellers on the nationwide housing boom, and move to sunny south Florida to enjoy the endless sunshine and laid-back lifestyle.
The fastest-growing sector within Florida buyers are retirees who are looking to buy them forever home. That means they want certain things that will support that, and the low tax situation Florida has is amongst the strongest reasons. Others include living within 55+ communities that offer a plethora of things to do in retirement.
To answer this call, many well-known, new construction home builders, have been purchasing huge plots of land, in desirable zip codes, to build magnificent 55+ neighborhoods. Some offer championship golf courses, others provide state-of-the-art fitness centers, with professional massage centers, saunas, hot tubs, and more.
Why don’t we take a closer look into what the 55+ housing market looks like for Florida in 2022…?
What are 55+ Neighborhoods, Exactly?
Basically, 55+ neighborhoods are those that only allow residents and homeowners, to be over the age of 55 and most residents tend to be near, or in retirement. Some places do allow a few people to live within their communities, that are under 55, but not many.
Some are simply for those of age and provide a serene environment to spend your days. Neighbors usually know each other and there is a sense of community you will feel if you move in.
Other 55+ neighborhoods provide over-the-top amenities and focus on luxury during retirement. They might have fitness centers, swimming pools, walking trails, fire pits, BBQ grills, and more.
Many focus on championship golf and the homes are set directly on the course, at great locations like keyholes throughout the course.
There are even waterfront retirement villages that provide boat dockage, ocean access, and full-service marinas. In Florida, these waterfront homes can cost millions of dollars depending on where they are located and the condition, they are in.
How to Find 55+ Homes for Sale?
Obviously, you can check the local Multiple Listing Service (MLS) where all the real estate gets listed for sale by realtors. Additionally, there are many new construction homebuilders in the sunshine state with gorgeous 55+ homes within newly built communities.
In 2022 there aren’t many real estate listings available anymore. The fast-paced housing market brought too many buyers to market last year. In fact, new homes can be delayed for up to 12 months or more.
The best way to ensure that you can find the perfect house is by being prepared before entering the market. This entails many things and will depend on your personal situation.
- If you are moving from another state contact a TOP, local, realtor beforehand, so that you can get your finger on the housing market pulse wherever you are interested in living.
- Make sure your finances are in order. If you are paying cash there isn’t much you need to do except, make sure that your funds are verifiable, and ready to send to the seller at closing.
- If you’re financing and need to obtain a mortgage, make sure that you are preapproved before you send any offers to a seller. Not pre-qualified, make sure you have gone deep into the process with your broker.
- They must check your income, credit, and other important things before you become preapproved, which is much stronger than sellers who don’t want problems once they accept an offer and go to contract.
When you follow these steps, then you are going to drastically increase the odds of getting the house you want.
Conclusion to This All
Hopefully, you can see that the housing market will continue to increase and grow with all the new buyers looking to move to the sunshine state, to live the Florida lifestyle. If you intend to do the same, make sure you are prepared so that you aren’t disappointed when you try to buy a house you adore.
Once you are done with this process you can kick back, and truly enjoy all the fun in the sun, that Florida is known for. It is no wonder people are moving here like never before, in history.
