THE JUGGERNAUT OF VIOLENCE
The beautiful valley of Kashmir has not been free of terror for decades now. The tragedy is in the apparent helplessness of the Central Government in meeting with the crisis. The death toll and the casualties simply keep rising, like the swell of a tsunami, sparing not even the children. Truly a pity that even the innocent are not spared. Disruption is the order of the day. Again, the complete irresponsibility of the Central government is brought into the foray, for not meeting with the needs of the people. But then again, the Capitol is busy meeting up with the "pressing" demands of the Commonwealth Games to look into other matters. If half the administration is looking into unnecessary items, the rest is trying to wriggle out of scandals of some sort or the other, political, sexual, social. And then buying their fifteen minutes of fame on national television, which channels are waiting to pounce on like jackals.

I was reading about National Income which is nothing but the sum total of value added in all the enterprises of a country. By 'value added' i mean the money value all the final goods and services produced in a country during a period of one year.
Following factors are not included in calculating National Income:
1.Leisure activities such as hobbies
2.Illegal income or gift taxes
3.Sale of second machines
4.Transfer payments on unproductive activities
and last but not the least.. Self Consumption services such as "HOUSEWIVES".
Well,instead of memorising all of them,only last one would do.
Because.....

“Last night a video tape mailed to our head office playing a message from Osama bin Laden confirmed that he’s still alive and active...it included Osama in an AK-47 background claiming that England’s performance was frustrating and appalling last night ....although the tape seems fresh and recent...but British Intelligence has dismissed the claim, stating that the message could have been recorded anytime in last 44 years..!!”
This is one of the thousand bullets that was fired against England by the British media after being thrashed by Germany last Sunday, but it was Frank Lampard’s disallowed goal which dominated the news channels (instead of devastating German counter attack) renouncing the age old soccer Vs Technology battle which has become the central feature of pub discussions and television sensation.

The existence of God, or Divinity; has been affirmed, denied, debated over and indoctrinated for almost as long as civilization itself. Although the finer details have undergone manifold changes over the millennia, the basic essentials remain the same:
“There exists a human-like force or being, which/who created this entire Universe, governs it, and if need so arises, can change it.”

Rohan sat on the patio of his parental cottage in rural Kerala watching the rain beat down on the brownish sand. Thin strands of the water hit him mildly adding to the solemn comfort while the steaming cup of coffee that he held with both hands helped regulate his body temperature.
The house was bounded by thick vegetation composed of coconut, betel nut, banana and jackfruit trees and they waved in unison following the dictates of the strong breeze which is traditionally the rain’s constant companion in this part of the world.
