Looking into the horizon

Last vacation I went home to see my mom. She is a Postal Assistant in the head office (HO) of my hometown. As we discussed some issues, she start complaining about her work pressure. The total HO has been computerised and still she couldn't cope up with her assignments. Technology has become so intimidating that the senior generation couldn't learn the fundementals or atleast not prepared to learn. Its obvious that the number of VRS is nowadays in its raise. Its time for a change, age-wise, technology-wise, energy-wise and attitude-wise. It would be the wiser thing to do in modern world unless until the senior generation matches the juniors' content. But the change should be unanimous with every department willing to oblige. I couldn't understand why political administration still attenuates youngsters. Rahul Gandhi seems to be different. Already a lot is being dealt about him. Experience, tagname, youngster, the future..... everything is swiveling around him. Here is...

India went on with five bowlers, dropping one of its bastman and that has led to its downslope. Indians are five down at Faisalabad and are still 106 runs short to avoid a follow-on.

In Tamil Nadu, TV channels have a real thrust. With ruling and the opposition parties functioning channels for and of their own, we've already witnessed many petty issues being politicised. This move by the CM Jayalalitha is different. She wants to have a bite at the root.

Jack Schofield of Guardian points out how well our attention data can be used. He quotes We're entering an age where it can be extremely comprehensive, and very effectively exploited, not just by merchants but by governments. That really is scary. Absolutely true !! when seen in a holistic manner. I dunno how I could fight out these pugilists. Those who started living life also in bytes, remember you are being tracked and trapped !!! As pointed out by Jack, "In internet nobody knows you're a dog" . Contrary to that, you don't know how doggy you are.

I could remember everything you do, even if you switch me off ! says my PC !

Osama might have erased the record of appearing in most number of headlines. Here and here again he is there.

John C. Polanyi in his article says that "Science never gives up searching for truth, since it never claims to have achieved it". But the success of invention always depends on how well it is used. Here are more concerns .

How long we want to be happy? and how? This is what Lee Dye says about "It is better to be rich and healthy than to be sick and poor". He quotes about some of the reasons of happiness "success at work, a good marriage, a fit body, a fat bank account." I am contemplating it and I have two things exchanged a fat body and a fit bank account . I have to work on the first but I dont think I have to concentrate on the second
