Cheer the new underdogs

By S.Mitra Kalita

There’s nothing like a good game to make you root for a nation. You could be the least patriotic person, but the sight of country brethren sweating and grunting and paining their way to victory has to tug even at your taut heartstrings.

And so I found myself swelling with pride at being Indian for the first time in a while as I watched Chak De!India, the film about a female field hockey team’s journey to the World Cup. It was a much-needed moment, coming after nine months to the day of my arrival from the US and at a time I’m awash with doubt over whether this nation will really envelope all in this tide of prosperity.

For a change, escapist Bollywood offers an answer, albeit a slim-chanced one, a place where such a playing field can be level and accessible—and that is the field itself. For women in India, especially, who might have been born into households where their arrivals were not cheered, athletics represents more than a pastime but a way out and up. That has been the case for the last three decades or so, but the regions from which these women hail are becoming increasingly far-flung —with a notably high number coming from the North-East.

Grateful for this point’s subtle inclusion in Chak De!India, my favourite scene begins with two males whistling at two young women, one from Manipur, the other from Mizoram, at a McDonald’s. Common enough, especially in New Delhi. But what ensues is rare: a rough-and-tumble battle of the sexes ending with the allegedly weaker side victorious. A team is built, not just united against injustices from men, but also in sticking up for each other.

This legitimacy and recognition is craved by young athletes from the so-called backward areas, perhaps as much as fame and fortune. Consider another scene where the north-eastern duo arrives at the training camp only to be greeted by a registration official as “guests”. The athletes sarcastically thank him for welcoming them to their own country.

To make sure real life imitated the reel, I turned to Manipur native and award-winning boxer Mangte Chungneijang Merykom, now known as Mary Kom, to understand the desperation and determination that defines athletes in the region.

In 2002, she won the gold medal for India at the Women’s World Boxing Championship and went on to receive the Arjuna Award in 2004. I got a sense of her before we even began speaking; her mobile’s ring tone is Billy Joel’s She’s Always a Woman to Me, with lyrics like “She can take you or leave you …she takes care of herself… she’s ahead of her time … She can do as she pleases, she’s nobody’s fool.”

Speaking from Imphal in halting English, she told me her father had been a rice farmer, her mother a housewife. “Many players in the North-East, we come from poor families. That’s why we can do hard work,” she says. “Now it’s really different. I’ve gotten many awards.”
Her success is remarkable in spite of her background, yet also because of it. She says she used to save up money to buy gloves and looked up to boxing great Muhammad Ali. “From different part of India, states like UP and Delhi, when we come out of the North-East, some people think we are like foreigners,” she says. “Representing India is a big success for me.”

Her husband, a footballer himself, notes the irony of women from the North-East excelling in areas such as judo, weightlifting, boxing, even as lawlessness marks their home villages. He said many hope to land jobs by playing sports for corporate or public sector teams. “Young generations don’t have a chance to get employment in our own states,” said K. Onler.

In the 1960s and 1970s, Punjabi women took up sports as a way of uplifting themselves, says Kamaljit Sandhu Kooner, the first Indian woman to win gold in the 1970 Asian Games. Then, after 1975, South Indian women began making a mark. Now, it is the North-East’s turn.

“Competitive sports today is all about pain,” said Sandhu Kooner, who serves as the director at the National Institute of Sports in Patiala. “They are naturally suited because of the lives they have led. The greatest motivations are monetary effects and social acceptance. Suddenly, overnight, you become a great hero.”

Indeed, the recent heroes in patriotic films have fought enemies outside India, from Britain to Pakistan. Chak De!India cleverly suggests the real dividing force lurks within—and luckily can be conquered. Its appeal and message matters more than ever, especially as the fabric of this nation frays and rips into the countless Indias of cliché: rich and poor, urban and rural, Hindu and Muslim, on and on.

So it has come to be that young women from the new areas that make not even a mention in our national anthem—Jharkand, Manipur, Mizoram and many more—are the ones who embody its meaning strongest as they take to the field.

Cultural shift

- Why people look at me? -

By: Joy Shaikhom *


“The first human who hurled an insult instead of a stone was the founder of civilization."

-- Sigmund Freud

A beautiful lady with full of fabric, mehendi in hand, payal in ankle wrist, with a yellow saree, looks so gorgeous. The facial expression shows that she is near to us, near to you and near to me. I talk to her, we chat then I come to know that she is in the city for the last two years.

Throughout her ages she is brought up in a beautiful state, my Manipur. Its just two years that she stay out of state. Her lovely tongue curl while speaking our own langauge.

I asked “Do you wear fanek sometime”, she replied “I haven’t worn since my childhood”. My goodness, I was surprised. Really! You don’t wear, then my stupidity annoyed her.

Our conversation goes as we move...sometime people says I put question mark on my forehead as I usually asked too many question. I am talkative like a girl, she told me, but I suddenly reply, “Karigino nasa nathanta hanthana yengjaridi, nupi malligana hairidubo, nupi oiba tallbaro, nangdi angang oirina khongjeega si”

Our next conversation is about thabal and jagoi which I love so much, here I got a sudden shock, a Manipuri lady don’t know thabal and jagoi. She even said she haven’t seen any thabal or jagoi.

I was surprised and suddenly clear my doubt by asking are you meitei, where is your birth place?. After hearing and knowing her profile, it hurts ny heart. My lady is born in Manipur and she did her graduation from Manipur University and she belongs to Meitei community.

Within the span of 4 to 5 years I have seen 4 -5 articles talking about NE people mostly girls in leading news paper. What does this mean? There must be something wrong with what we do.

A simple example, while I was doing management studies, my colleague said people have wrong perception against the "chinky look" mostly NE girl. They put themselves in a cheap status. Its not only about girl, even many of us are not put ourselves in proper manner, it seems to other mentality that we don’t dress and eat in proper manner.

I know its one’s life but we must also think that we are all social being and have to exist in societies within the environment. Change is the only constant, change will be there.

There is saying for every culture, female play a leading role, they are the mirror of our culture, the darkness or brightness of our culture depends on them. If people talks about them so much or if leading news paper wrote about them, there must be something wrong with what we do.

One more incident I would like to narrate, I could not remember the exact date and time of that particular incident. I was going to theatre for "Don", with my juinior, all from Manipur.

We were standing in front of the theatre before the film starts, suddenly I show a young lady of 24-25 ages with blue T-shirt and tight jean, getting down from a white maruti, with 4 other non Manipuri guys. She is the only lady in that troop. Every one in the gate turns eyes on her. Do you think people look because of her beauty .

This is a big “?”. As we are standing nearby to gate, after sometime everyone started looking on us again, I don’t know why people look on us, but very soon I know why other people look on us, its because that young lady is similar to our looks, I know she is from Manipur and she is Manipuri lady.

I feel sorry not because she is with 4 non Manipuri guys, it’s because how other people look on us. We are in the theatre gate before she came, but no body look us with any wrong perception, only after her arrival, people started their big eyes on us.

There will be lots of happening if we really observed. Sometime you will surprise to hear that..”Eikhoi class ta eikhoi meitei nupi manga khak yaowe, eikhoi masen amata kounede”. Good to hear such a wonderful dialogue.

It’s very useful for my simple article. They usually go to temple, for what reason I don’t know but one thing is for sure that they wear saree, lots of bangles, beautiful mehendi and payal. But many of them if you see in Manipur, they hardly go for prayer, forget this you wont see even this girl doing morning prayer which we can be proud of.

If you talk so much about this they will say you are narrow minded, they will asked us to know the world, people are changing. They will even said " don't be in Stone Age". Let us change in better ways, let our behaviors may not contaminate our beautiful culture. Lets not make people look on us because of you.

Sometimes people say boys are boys, girls are girls, men are man, but this is also wrong perception. Many men in the societies are in the mindset that females should do households work.

Forget this perception, they are equally competitive with us (men), they are already overtaking in every field and we must respect them. Why only female to take care of house work? Is the caring of child is just her responsibility; no we are equally part of this.

If I am not wrong, many of us acts with so much freedom as we move out of the home. Take the ratio of student going out of the state for studies and take the return on investment on this product. We will see that less then 10% of the students come back with proper return, other are just wasting their way of living, the new culture they adopted.

My article is not meant to hurt anyone; it’s just the situations that I would like to narrate which I came across. If it hurts someone, I would apologize in advance, but lets face the reality also.

"We are born princes and the civilizing process makes us frogs" - Syrus

"We should distrust any enterprise that requires new clothes" - Henry David Thoreau, Walden.

Image of Manipur

By : B. A. Sharma

Though, by look Manipur is the land where no one can detect the real confluence of the internal turmoil. Perplexity of the atmosphere in Imphal Valley shall nowhere prevailed. Everyone is behind money. Everyone is behind the cause of survival. As if, competition is always imbibed in the blood of Meiteis community, since inception. Either in sports, in the schooling, in the colleged, in theatres, in cinema making, and even on living status also; every one is on run with competition.

Unaccountable social formalities, Social affinities and lots of social obligations wrapped the Meiteis Community. The highest expenditure scale of a personal effect in the world Meitei would be No. one. Money is so frequently rotated in Manipur. Therefore, the Meitei Sanatanas are very famous for the social looks, for their rites and the formalities into divine dispositions. This would also be the reason that Meitheis are so sensitive, soft hearted but very robust physique ordained. Meiteis are normally individualist; atherefore, in sports Meiteis are very successful, especially in athaletics and individual events. This would also perhaps the reason for fragmenting the organization into small segments. As a result the rebellions have been broken into pieces, and therefore, the cause of the rebellions and ideology of the commands have been bifurcated; besides divide and rule policy seeded in the state, so that ignorants are facing their theory of rebellion is in dilemma. In the middle the policy of the central Government is playing the role of breaking the nerves of the people of Manipur. In spite of pacifying the dispute by rejecting the baseless projects for greater Nagaland Govt. of India has brought NSCN (IM) for negotiation. Recognition has given to NSCN (IM) neglecting the Manipuri rebellions like UNLF, PLA. KYKL etc. as oarganizations against the mainstream of the administration. Govt. of India is always guarding the antinationalist; Govt. of India is guiding to break the territorial integrity of Manipur, Assam and Aruncachal Pradesh under a negotiation talk with NSCN (IM).

In is also astonished that a north East-Forum has been formed under the supreme command of Sri P.A. Sangma, the then speaker of the Parliament. But the body has not stated against the will to negotiate with NSCN (IM) and Govt. of India till today. When the Kangla episode was a burning issue for the nation; neither the leader have given expressed their dissatisfactions, for the entry of the negotiation and nor against the AFSPA.

Neither of the ruling nor the oppositions leaders were ready to initiate against the illfortunate act of the Govt. of India. There in also the Chief Minister and the Council of Minister of Manipur were shown their inactive design of the administration. They could not make any decision in favoaur of the mass movements. All the legislators were behind the chairs which were found tossing. At that time they were worshipping unto O. Ibobi (the Goat of sacrifice). Shri Ibobi again was in perplexed upon the situation. He has no idea to trace to solve the problem. He flat away to Delhi to seek help from the Centre. In like manner, Manipur is suffering for long back without proper administration in the state.

The image of Manipur is so awkwardly from out of the state. As a person in a car could see the limited volume of the inside car; indeed, the person get down from the car and see from a far distance could viewed the full volume of the car. The same thing is happening in Manipur. We could not see, could not feeled the atmosphere of Manipur. Because, we have been adopted in the society, we have been acclimatized in the society.

Other wise, every act of Manipur and her administration could have been noticed. But how to make the situation cozy is the problem. However, it very easy if the administration is ready to handle it. Say, if an intelligent person has been engaged to observe something, which upon the object is very thickly ordained by corruption. First of all the observer will feel the object is dirty, the atmosphere is very dirty. Again, the person tried to feel the surrounding of the object. He/she tried to establish a clear observation for the object engaged for. In search of clear tuning up of the job dealth for he himself later compelled to submerge into the dirty atmosphere. He acclimatized into the atmosphere wherein he tried to see an object. Thus, he could not differentiate himself from the object as he was travelling in the dirt. At the last stage he could not make out what is his real objective. Because, he himself was taking the same adulterated food. His blood also circulated with the polluted intras. His mind could not divert from the atmosphere. At the last stage he was found a fast swimmer into the dirty pond of corruption.

In like manner, Manipuri could not make out the mistakes committing by themselves Manipuris who traveled away from the state they saw the clear picture of Manipur. But when he returned at home he curse the atmosphere of Manipur, in turn he could not do anything but to merge into the filthy air, polluted water and polluted thoughts of the state administration. This is reality.

If we honestly wanted to have a change the impure bloods we should change the lot, the lot of administration, also should mix the open viewed intelligentia and make evolution of thinking to escape the climax of the situation. That would be a revolution . But, the theory and practices of revolutionary scenarios prevailing in Manipur today is nothing but the lack of administration. Due to insecure educational expectations and fair of insecure life lines the youths of the state have choosen to fight against the state administration; misconceived, misled themselves due to bad administrations.

If the administration is fair, sincere, clear and deserve there is no question of jangling with the lives of the people of the state.

The Bravehearts of IGAR(s)

By Donn Morgan Kipgen

When a person who serves the interest of national security with blood, guts and honour, such soldier’s achievement has to be portrayed in full colours. Not to show them brave hearts of the nation’s armed forces in honourable manner is a cardinal sin. It’s like robbing the glorious names of gallant and meritorious officers and ranks.

Whereas the Army’s PRO, PIB/DW, flatly refused to give even a photo-copy of the Indian Army’s List of Honour, on national security ground, which was given to all national daily newspapers and news magazine and, of course, printed to the fullest in army’s journal recently, the IGAR(S) HQ and MPHQ distributed the names, ranks and units of all meritorious and gallantry awards winners on 14th August, 2007.

A military research scholar has official security clearance and can evoke the Right to Information Act. The abstract lesson being: ‘Don’t say anything which is not fully correct to a person without knowing who he/she really is, apart from what you think who he/she is. Reality bites, with real metal teeth having deadly venom in Manipur.

Since there are no room for ethnic, caste and class system in the Army/AR ranks and files nor any socio-political discrimination, the IGAR(S) once again netted as many as 61 awards, commendation cards, medals etc in exulted List of Honour on Independence Day, 2007. This astounding record of highest number of awards, citations and medals received by officers and ranks of a single unit in Indian armed forces, Maj Gen BK Chengappa’s IGAR(s) must be the proudest military formation in the length and breath of India. Though, like his young State police counterpart, i.e Shri Paotinmang Doungel IPS, IG (Home), Gen Chengappa did not receive the coveted PP Meritorious Award as expected but good actions speak louder than words.

Whereas Pu P Doungel IPS is one of the youngest IGPs in India with clean service records, Gen Chengappa (14th Garhwal Rifles Regt) got himself into the Indian Army through CDS Exams, not NDA, in 1970 and tasted battle-glory in the 1971 Indo-Pak war. His professional career is quite remarkable since CDS boys usually served as Short Service Commission, some retired at the rank of Major or Lt. Colonel and very few rose upto the rank of full Colonel and fewer still retired as Brigadiers. Hence, an excellent achievement to have reached a General officer’s rank. He and his (previous) hard charging diplomatical GSO, i.e Col. Thimayya (5th Mechanised Inf, formerly the 13th Kumaon) and Col. Adappa, CO, 34th AR, Thoubal area, are all from Coorg, Karnataka, and all of them studied in the same school at one time or other, under the Headmastership of one Mr Chengappa the senior. A proud guardian he would be.

The Army/AR authorities have absolutely no problem to find out genuine bravehearts, irrespective of caste or creed. The much coveted President’s Police Medal for Gallantry went to: (1) Hav Hyamlal (Hiemlal Kuki?) of 34th AR, 9th Sector and (2) Sub BS Lushei of the 3rd AR 27th Sector. The President’s Police Medal for Meritorious Service were awarded to four JCOs, 9th sector HQ: Subs RM Gurung, 11th AR; BB Khati, 16th AR; TD Barman, 16th AR and BB Rana, 34th AR. The army’s 2nd highest peacetime gallantry award, the Sena Medal, was bagged by Maj Sanjoy Kapoor, 18th AR and Maj Amit Rana, 3rd AR.

The Chief of Army Staff Commendation Card (COAS-CC) went to: Lt Col. Paramjot Singh, IGAR(S) HQ; Capt. D Bhan, 19th AR; Capt M Gautam, 13th AR; Rn RJ Sharma; 19th AR; Col. Rajiv Kanwar, Majs J Kumar and A. Kumar, all from 7th AR. The Army’s 10th J&K Light Inf operating under 26th Sector HQ, received 3 COAS-CC, viz, Maj AK Narayanan, Maj S Kumar and Corp Md Razaq. With Maj V Gurung, 7th AR bagging the GOC-in-C, Eastern Command Commodation Card (GOC-in-C, ECCC), the 7th AR would have made a remarkable clean-sweep, had not a senior Minister and a petulant company commander made a highly controversial Politico-Military ‘interaction’ at Sagang, Bishenpur Dist, recently. That’s the standard example of military Code of Honour and Discipline, if indeed an ‘action’ had been taken as it seemed. A young captain of 7th AR’s Kumbi post also missed out a golden chance for refusing to meet a retired Army commander, a Lt Col H Bhubon, despite clear instruction from his CO, 7th AR.

The GOC-in-C, EC commendation card was received by the IGAR(S) HQ’s Maj Atul Watts (Gorkha Rifles?). Perhaps, the jolly good Maj Watts has quick answers to the ESPN’s ‘US Spelling Bees’ competition! Whereas Maj N Sibla and two other ranks of the 19th AR received the GOC-in-C, ECC, Capt JS Yadav and 6 other rank of the Army’s 10th J&K LI, Maj AK Sharma and Rfn Y Okendro Singh of the 18th AR are other recipients.

The prestigious Governor of Meghalaya (DGAR HQ) Gold Medal was given to 8 JCO/NCOs, 3 Rfn, 1 officer and a Sr Acct of IGAR(S), Shri JC Bhattacharjee.

The GOM Silver Medals were awarded to 2 Asst Comdts ARMO, Dr S Ranjan Chongtham, 44th AR, and Dr Mrs Moichi Saka, 1st AR, an MS Sister Annama Alex, 1st AR, 2 officers, 5 JCO/NCOs and 7 Jawans (3 of which are from IGAR(S) HQ).

The adventurous 32nd AR, whose A-Coy worked along with the IE police commandos and the army’s 22nd Maratha Light Inf (MLI) whose company post at Tulihal under ‘the arrogant’ Maj Javed Ali Khan, working with IW Police commandos, understandably did not receive even a single award or medal despite their prolific records.

The controversial 14th AR and much-feared 21st AR also missed out but no citizen, especially in the Sadar Hills, needs an answer for this poetic justice.

All those who missed the braveheart-party should take comfort in inspirational poem written in a 30 minutes - period by yours sincerely. Let’s call it: ‘The Song of Zion Kibbutz’. (The rhyme being 2 ABBA, 1 AABB of 10 and 12 syllables respectively)


Song of Zion Kibbutz

“ Where’er noble deeds or honours are Wrought,
When’er glorious battles and wars are won
And the highest degree of courage shown
Ribbons must be pinned for bloody battles Fought.
“When combat strikes and sights are near full done,
Inscript a well-measured pages of exploits
Earned with bloods and wits by truest patriots
Ev’n after a year’s time period is run”.
Though bounded tasks portrayed them as sinners,
Their sacrifice honoured them as winners.
Ye, be a part of nation’s pride, hearts and valour.
That’s what we could do for our country a favour”

— DM Kipgen.

Can Unhappy Parents Raise Happy Children?

Varsha Pathak


Happiness is a habit that should be cultivated. But if you are a deeply unhappy parent can you cultivate this habit in your child?

A while ago the Mumbai police rescued a twelve-year boy who had run away from his home in Gujarat and was wandering on the Dadar railway station. In most runaway cases poverty, abusive parents and dreams of stardom play a role.

But this was a boy from an educated, upper middle class family. Being the only child of his parents, he was given more than any average child. A good school, swimming lessons, a room with a computer, lots of clothes and shoes. And apparently he was not star struck.

So why did he run away from home?

What the boy told the police was not something they were used to hearing - but perhaps something that we are all familiar with in some little way or the other.

According to the boy, his parents fought all the time. The common strain that ran through the fighting was that the father was in the marriage only for his son. The mother too frequently wished he had never been born so she could be free.

Fed up of hearing this, the boy one day decided to run away from the house and set his parents free. But he was an innocent child from a sheltered home life who didn't know what to do after getting down at a railway station in Mumbai. Fortunately the police caught hold of him, before some unsavoury elements did.

We don't know how the boy told his story but this is the gist let out by the cops. They called the parents, gave them the usual tongue thrashing and sent the child back home.

We are also unaware about what happened later in that family. Did they live happily ever after - together or separate?

Opinion on hearing this story was divided.

Some people said that parents even if they are not happy with each other should not expose the child to unpleasant scenes.

Others said that a child would be better off if his continuously warring parents separate and then stay single or remarry.

And then there are some grown up children who say that they should not be used as an excuse for their parent's decisions.

What do the children say?

Innumerable surveys and studies are conducted amongst the children of broken homes. Most people believe that innocent children are the victims in divorce cases. Parental separation leaves lifelong scars on the child's psyche. Moral of these studies is: Stay together for the children's sake.

But what about the family where the couple stays married but leads separate, mutually unsatisfactory lives? Is there any study showing the effect of such surroundings on the child's mind? Can unhappy parents give a normal, happy life to their children? Some people claim that they don't fight in front of their children, but in such cases, do they really believe that the children are unaware of the truth?

And in case the parents think that they are doing the right, rather noble thing by sacrificing their own happiness for the sake of their children. Hear these words from a middle-aged woman of two grown up children, "when I tell my children how many sacrifices I made for them including putting up with their father's infidelity, they call me a fool. My son has already left the house to work abroad and my daughter will be joining him soon. My husband's behaviour is going from bad to worse. I don't know what I will do after my daughter leaves the house.

Sometimes I wonder whether life would have been better if we had separated. My children openly say that I should have left my philandering husband long back, and can still do it. I feel worse when my daughter says that after seeing my life, she would think twice before entering into matrimony..."

There is another man echoing almost the same sentiments. "We pull on with bad marriages thinking that the children shouldn't suffer. But then one day they go away and we are left wondering why we did, what we did. By leading a sad life ourselves, did we really give a good life to the child? And at what cost?"

Children are expected to appreciate such parental efforts. Fine. Any child would like to see his/her parents together. But when they grow up a little and start understanding the situation, don't they feel guilty hearing that they were the sole reason for their parent's unhappy but long lasting partnership? After all they didn't force them together, in the same way they didn't ask to be born either.

It is also widely believed, truly or falsely that children of divorced parents are more likely to divorce their own spouses. If this is true, then we should also believe that children of silently suffering parents too would have the same fate. They too would compromise and accept unhappy marriages and blame their children and so on. How do you like this scenario?

And then there are children whose parents divorced and remarried. Are they all unhappy?

What is your opinion?

Should parents stay together only for their children's sake? Are all children coming from divorced home doomed to have unhappy lives? Is it better to give your child two divorced but happy parents or a set of married, unhappy parents?

50 Reasons Why Young Women Should Date Older Men

By Ed Attanasio

Some call it the “Sugar Daddy Syndrome.” Others call it the “Father was never around” complex. A lot of people have no problem with it, while many find it sick and perverted. Regardless of your own personal views, young women dating older men is a worldwide phenomenon that is gaining popularity and acceptance at an alarming rate.

Why do young women like older men? What attracts 20-something females to 40, 50, even 60-something males? You could spend several hundred hours with a series of shrinks in an attempt to sort through the plethora of possible answers. The only problem with that is that most psychiatrists are expensive and love the term “billable hours.” It would cost thousands of dollars to find out the truth.

After talking with both sexes at great length, I have come to the conclusion that young women like older men because the relationship comes with benefits - lots of them. Face it — we are a very simple race. We look at dating the same way we look at a financial balance sheet.

What will I get out of it? Is it a good deal for me? How can I leverage this? These are just some of the questions we constantly ask ourselves when we’re in any relationship, whether we’re aware of it or not.

Here is a list that we’re calling the Top 50 Reasons Why Young Women Should Date Older Men. If you’re a young attractive lady considering a guy twice your age, this list might give you the 50 reasons you need to persuade yourself into making a move to the geriatric side. Here it goes:

1. He knows a lot of useless stuff and makes a great partner in games like Scrabble, Trivial Pursuit and Balderdash.

2. He’s well-read. He can explain a book’s plot and storyline to you quickly and succinctly, thereby saving you the time it would take to actually read the book. It’s like having your own personal set of Cliff Notes.

3. This gives you more free time to spend his money at malls, outlet stores, and online.

4. He knows a lot about music. He can name the band that Paul McCartney played with prior to Wings.

5. You can borrow his Grecian Formula to patch any bleached sun spots in your hair.

6. The big bedroom and/or guest rooms in his house means no rent for you and eventually your friends/relatives can move in too.

7. He’ll provide better, more intelligent and engrossing conversations. (How long can you talk about trucks, extreme sports and partying anyway?)

8. If you sprain your ankle, you can use his cane.

9. He qualifies for early bird senior discounts at restaurants.

10. He’ll actually dance with you at night clubs. He’ll be the hit of the party when he pulls out his “Funky Chicken.”

11. He’ll open doors and pull out chairs for you.

12. If he gets too chatty, you can hide his teeth.

13. Qualifies for AARP membership privileges.

14. You can throw away all of your coupons for McDonalds, Der Wienerschnitzel and Panda Express since you have no use for them. Start to brush up on your dining etiquettes and prepare yourself for eating at restaurants such as Houston’s, P.F. Chang, and Morton’s.

15. He’ll give you flowers, candy and best of all - cold, hard cash!

16. He’s into holding hands and other Public Displays of Affection (PDA’s) as opposed to today’s “no contact” rules associated with dating in 2007.

17. You won’t need to pay for AAA roadside service because he’ll pick you up whenever your car breaks down.

18. He’ll effectively replace your dad for when pops isn’t around. (Celebrate Father’s Day twice!)

19. Will treat 100% of the time. (Young guys don’t have cash, credit cards, or in many cases, wallets.)

20. No random late-night booty calls, because he goes to bed at 9 pm every night.

21. He won’t try to change you.

22. He can help you with your homework.

23. He’s very experienced in bed. If you like it or want to try it, he’s been there, done that! (And more than once.)

24. He won’t pretend to listen to you just so he can get in your pants.

25. Kiss goodbyes to Motel 6, Budget Inn, and Super 8 when you travel. Say hello to the Hyatt, the Hilton, and the Westin.

26. He has a future, even though it might be a limited one.

27. You’ll never have to pay for car maintenance. A lifetime of free tune-ups, oil changes, tire rotations and windshield wiper replacements awaits you.

28. Dating him will shock your folks. They may even throw lots of money at you to stop dating him.

29. He has some serious pension/social security money coming to him down the line.

30. He’s not sleeping on mommy’s couch or living with his parents.

31. You don’t have to worry about him looking at other women. (His vision is probably so shot he can’t see them).

32. He’s articulate and knows multi-syllabic words. (Improve your vocabulary).

33. Sex with caring.

34. He dresses better. Won’t show up in his one pair of ratty jeans all the time. Means you can get into nice restaurants/clubs.

35. He doesn’t have any drug baggage. He may have smoked pot in the ’60’s and ’70’s; or did coke in the ’80’s and ’90’s, but chances are he’s clean now. (Otherwise he’d probably be dead.)

36. He’s entitled to all kind of discounts including senior bus fares and matinee discounts. This means more cash left over for you.

37. He’ll wait at least one month before he expects it.

38. You won’t have to worry about getting pregnant. His sperm cells are so old, they’re swimming backstroke (Warning: Always wear protection.)

39. He’s an attentive lover and won’t forget your name or order pizza immediately after he has an orgasm.

40. He won’t argue with you over little, meaningless things. (He’s basically numb.)

41. He won’t ask you a bunch of personal, prying questions, like “What’s your name?”

42. He won’t run away. At least not very far. Or very fast.

43. You can talk politics with him, something you can’t do with younger men. (He knows that Colin Powell isn’t a medical condition.)

44. He’ll memorize your phone number, which comes in handy if you get too drunk and forget it.

45. He’ll turn you on to old-school chick flicks like The Graduate, Love Story and Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

46. He has a nice car. Park your Hyundai and start driving his Infiniti, Porsche, Lexus, Mercedes or BMW.

47. He’ll take you on incredible vacations, unlike young guys. No more Vegas, Palm Springs and Tijuana during Spring Break. Say hello to cruises to Europe and Australia, ski trips to Aspen and Telluride and African safaris.

48. He won’t be jealous of your vibrator. He’s realistic!

49. He won’t be text messaging you all the time. He doesn’t know how!

50. When he dies, you can date his cute son(s)!

Blogs @10

Do you dig link love, hate blogasms, tag memes and can't stand to ignore a ping? If you don't know what on earth this is all about, it's probably time to take your first tentative steps into the blogosphere. As blogs turn 10 this year — typically of the medium, no one can agree on the exact date — the tribe of those who put fingers to the keyboard and their thoughts to the "homepages of the 21st century" is growing every day. Blog-tracker Technorati counted 93.8 million bloggers worldwide in July 2007 as compared to 100,000 in March 2003. In India, blogging is the most popular internet activity after emailing and the number of bloggers runs into lakhs though no exact count is available.

Call it narcissistic drivel churned out by those who think the minutiae of their lives is worthy of a global audience or the pretentious rantings of wannabe authors looking for that elusive book deal, but there's no denying the fact that blogs are changing the way we date, work, teach and live. A majority of blogs are online diaries — for the kind of stuff not good enough for print, but too good to waste on after-dinner conversation or, worse, mere thinking.

Sometimes, the thoughts run out and sometimes, the time. But amid the army of irregulars, the diehard blogophiles can't stop posting.

Meet Madmomma, a Delhi-based mother of two who started her parenting blog a year ago. "Partly out of boredom," she says. "I started writing on a blog because I thought these are the kind of thoughts no one would pay me for." Now, she posts daily — on everything from potty training to playschools. "It's amazing to see how complete strangers get involved, asking about my husband's job hunt and my daughter's skin problems," says the 28-year-old, who is just one of the many moms in the country who's taken to blogging. Even her daughter's haircut turned into an online poll, with the majority vetoing the idea. "They thought she looked cute as she was, so I dropped the haircut," says the anonymous MM, whose MOMoblogue has received over two lakh visitors.

It's the comments that give blogs a life of their own — pouring in from smart, dumb, creative, sadistic strangers who show up on the blog to be rude, flirt, veer off topic or simply to connect. The latter's probably the reason why everyone from Indian CEOs to Bollywood celebs is blogging. From making the first public announcement of a new film to private confessions of kicking the butt, Aamir Khan makes sure he keeps fans posted. "I read ALL posts personally.

And I personally write all my posts. NO ONE is allowed to write in my place," he declares on lagaandvd.com/blog.

Aamir even invited suggestions for the title of his latest film which got him over a thousand responses. Another regular is filmmaker Anurag Kashyap who discusses shot breakdowns with strangers and vents his frustrations at working within the star and money-driven movie industry.

Be it Bollywood or business, sex or spirituality, there is little that Indian bloggers don't tackle. But how did a trend that was slow to pick up initially in India become a phenomenon that has embraced so many? The opinion's almost unanimous on this one: a government directive that led to the blocking of blogs in July last year proved to be the turning point for the Indian blogosphere. "Till then, awareness was very low. The ban sparked such a furore that many people who didn't have a clue what a blog is found out about it," says Amit Agarwal, a techie who gave up an MNC job in 2004 to become the country's first professional blogger.

Today, the blogging bug has bitten so many that Agarwal, who brings out a directory of the best Indian blogs, gets over five review requests a day. "Though readership of most Indian blogs isn't very high, some of them have extremely good content." But readership is what cyber success is all about and that's where most blogs flounder. "Making money through blogs isn't easy. It takes vision, creativity, commitment and a lot of hard work — more than you would give to a job." Agarwal should know — he makes a living from his technology blog Digital Inspiration, which averages a whopping 1.2 million hits a month. Most of the revenue generated is via online advertising. "I work more than 12 to 14 hours a day, answering queries and reading hundreds of RSS feeds to track what's hot and what might interest people," says this IITian-turned-blogger.

Blogging isn't just about big bucks, it can bring other kinds of success, too. Arun, a 32-year-old who works with a software company in the US, is hoping his blog Trak.in will be a launch vehicle for the entrepreneurial venture he wants to start back home. "A blog gives you exposure, helps you build a reputation and is a great networking tool," says Arun, whose three-month-old blog has already made it to The Times, London's picks for best business blogs in India.

But success didn't come easy. "A lot of thought and research goes into it," he says. From getting tips from other bloggers, optimising keywords so that the blog comes up in search engines to finding thought-provoking topics of discussion that increase "the pop" (number of hits), Arun's at it almost every spare minute he gets. At the end of the day, the traffic makes it all worth it. "It's such a fabulous way to communicate...like you're talking to a friend yet you have thousands of people listening in."

Blogging's become the 21st century soliloquy — heartfelt, candid, self-absorbed. It's meant for no one in particular yet the reader hopes the world will read it. And so what if you're writing about what you had for breakfast. If you have a voice, there's a blog for you.

Thangboi in Manipur sekul system pen "crisis" tung a, "reform" poimo ahi, achi pen nial guallou a dih in ka thei hi:

"Genthei um sun ahi leh education toh kisai a structural change and revolution (reform) khat centre govt. apat poimo mong2 ta hi".

Tua i buaina ahileh a "solution" bang ahiai? chi lam ahi. India a education pen "State list" (state thuneina) ahia, Central Govt. in direct in sai thei lou dan ahi. Education reform i bawl ding leh, Manipur state level a bawl ding dan hileh a kilawm zaw hi. Etsahna din, CCpur a LP leh JB sekul tam zaw District Council te nuai a um ahia, khen khat ZEO (Manipur state) nuai ah um uhi. Tuaziah in sekul system toh kisai a Cental Govt. hing kitahlah dia i lamet leh, Jesu hing kum chiang in zong bangma piang doh lou ding hi.

First we have to identify the problem or "mess" we have created over the decades under the License Raj and then look for "actionable solutions". At present, Education Voucher system is the best model available for Public Private Partnership in school reform. Tami model ahileh idea tha hilou a, tumlam gam khenkhat ah sawtpi na kizang ta hi. Adiah in Sweden ah municipal school te tami Education Voucher model loching tah in kizui hi. Gamdang Chille, Ireland, USA, etc. ah zong tami model kizatna mun tampi um hi.

Ei India ah Karthik Muralidharan in Education Voucher toh kisai study hoitah in ana bawl zou ta hi. A report title ahileh "Public Private Partnership for Quality Education in India" ahi, http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/%7Emuralidh/papers.html

One of the most lucrative Govt. dept. ahi na lai seet hi. But we can at least dicuss the idea of Education Voucher? Unless we tell others, who will know about it; if no one knows, how can the idea be experimented?

Americate' Naupang Thunun Dan

A. Classroom Discipline Poimohna

Naupangte’n laizil a utna ding ua amau lunglutna lam zonpihlou a khauhtak a thunun a gawtna piak in naupangte bawlhoih sang in a hinkhua uh sesak zaw ahi chi in Glenn, Lott & Nelsen (1997) te’n gen uhi.

Ka research paper a sentence khenkhat ka hon telsak ding aw: To make the disruptive students think and reflect upon their activities, it is good to create a safe environment in which they would be given the opportunity to tell what they did, what they could do not to repeat the same offense, and what they are committed to do in the future. While external motivators like punishment or reward give solution to discipline problem for a short period of time, internal motivators like ownership of behavior, self-discipline, and self-developed plans could change one’s life. Using external motivators, we can control the behavior of people but we cannot change them. Change that comes from internal motivators last much longer than change that comes from external motivators (Marshall, 2001).

D. Naupang Gawtna (Punishment) Piak Ki-en Thak Le

Naupang gawt khenkhatte’n amau hehna sunkhiatna ding a naupang gawt uh a de aw chih theih pawl om a, naupang gawtna piak in hinna kikhekna taktak tunlou ahi chih tulai a brain research bawlte ngaihdan ahi. Ka research paper a ka gelh- The ultimate aim of discipline is civility which is to come from self-discipline. Since classroom activities cannot take place without some degree of discipline, it is important for teachers to broaden their understanding of discipline and enforce it wisely to motivate students to learn. Clark states discipline to be more than how to let students behave but how to “support them as they learn to channel and direct their positive energy in ways that accomplish their goals and those of their community.” Unless self-discipline or self-control is taught and the students are motivated internally to take part in the discipline process, external methods of control does not work when the teachers or parents are not around.

Half the blame-game in a mess-up Democracy

By : Thangkholun Haokip

Democracy the legacy of Abraham Lincoln is the government of the people, for the people, and by the people. However, this beautiful quotation is wrongly interpreted and regulated as if ... Democracy means “might is right” ... and not the government for the people, and by the people. But the government of the politicians, for the people by the politicians who could only gain the blessings of those armed-groups (who reign supreme).

The theory of Mao-Tse-Tung is always in force in this insurgent regime state of our society. Where many politicians of today are really misguided by his (Mao’s) theory of ...”Power comes out only from the barrel of the gun”. As a result every Jack and Jill becomes a Patriot in a forthnight if he has got a gun under his belt. Because of that gun with power he becomes to reign supreme as a saviour of the society and started indulging with manipulative roles in Election Politics with the aim solely of their chosen candidates to get elected.

Of course not! People dare say anything against their dare-devil act ... and their chosen candidates (not on People’s mandate) naturally get elected. Who then becomes the king makers (the makers, may be of MLAs and Ministers etc). Obviously those MLAs with the blessings... neither Heavenly (of God’s) nor of People’s mandate, but of those who reign supreme, in the sublime of their “Parvenu” in a forthnight hardly cares for none other than bringing damnation to the people. Nothing but to rob Peter to Pay Paul, and to seal one’s fate ... where many Potential and Promising leaders are sealed and fated is a common phenomenon in this insurgent regime State of our society.

I do not mean to say that all the MLAs are running with the hare and huntubf with the hounds for these scenes of much hateful game for getting into power. But only on any Tom-Dick and Harry who jockeyed for a position to strike the arrow home. Of course, there are many honest and noble-hearted Ministers and MLAs elected on people’s mandate really taking up the people’s cause with the charismatic spirit of sacrifice not even sparing the MLA-LAD fund..., “which is meant for the people and not to be misappropriated for the MLAs own selfish gains”.

It’s a true visualization as I have mentioned that politicians of today are misguided by Mao’s theory. What Mao had said was to use the gun properly with a true sense of Patriotism to achieve freedom from the oppressors with the help of the power that comes out from the barrel of the gun, but not to direct that barrel to the oppressed for whom they are fighting.

Let the Legacy of Mao’s theory of gun barrel be well crusaded with analytical thought to fine tune the vision of all and sundry. Lest, we’d be the Captain of our destiny to put the cart before the horse. “It is in Democracy that puts the horse before the cart, and it is the Dictatorship that puts the cart before the horse.”

Election the most vital factor in Democracy as I understand:

Election being the most vital factor in Democracy without which nothing could be initiated, sustained nor reformed would be a system in which all the people of the country can vote to elect their representatives with a fair and equal treatment of everyone, and their rights to take part in making decisions. And it should be purely on the fundamental basis of what Abraham Lincoln had said, “Democracy is the government of the people, for the people, and by the people”. But not by the system of Power that flows from the barrel of the gun, nor by means of Proxy voting, Impersonation, booth capturing, use of money power, muscle power and ballot paper snatching, or looting of EVM etc. Nor it would be of any method by fair means or foul to get into power and get elected. Election in Democracy would be rather a politics for improvement of people’s lives and not about big money on power games. What George Bernard Shaw had famously said is worth retrospection ... “In a Democracy which is more a social-life than a form of government cannot be survived without criticism. It’s a strong opposition, a much needed for the good governance in the democratic set up of government. Above all, it’s the educated people who really indebted to educate the uneducated masses (the voters) to meet the prevailing challenges for the deserving leaders to get elected in the “Election” which is the crux of democracy.

Who is to bell the Cat for the Cleansing campaign of mass awareness:

The focus of attention here is “Democracy” (for & by People’s rights) which is more a way of life than a form of government. The way of life concerns the involvement of People’s outlook, thinking and behaviour etc. However, what has made matter worse and unsuitable in the democratic set up of our insurgent regime Society is the presence of numerous armed groups who have taken up a cause in the name of the people, but will care a damn whether their action will put the people into any sort of suffering or not.

For long, the public under this insurgent regime have been forced to follow whatever had been imposed would have been because of the inability of the people to articulate their voice and argue their points sincerely with moral conviction and courage. A convincing criticism to the armed groups too, is very much important for their moral conviction in taking up the people’s cause, because they cannot be survived all alone without the existence of the people and its environment.

We cannot afford to let this to reign supreme go on forever. Those gun wielding with powers too are human beings and not animals... but taking up a cause in the name of the people, whose powers in their fiefdoms are all people’s own creation. “The fish cannot live without water, but the water can remain as it is without the fish living in it”. And its we (the people) who are to be well organised first for the proper working of Democracy... to let them know that they who are in power with guns are also to live amidst certain environment.

Besides much foam and froth, let election (the crux of democracy) be the focus of attention which had miserably failed in our insurgent regime society since its inception. It happens not because of the electorates being immaturity, nor by the common masses of being illiterate. But by the powers that flows from the barrel of the gun, which never ever allows the people to vote freely for their own choice of candidates. This is the phenomenally undesirable Dictatorship realms of election taking place in our insurgent regime society here and there.

Why not leave the people alone to decide in the election (it’s the people’s right) let any Jack and Jill who comes out to serve the people with all eligibilities as enshrined in the constitution, and whoever gains the people’s mandate be elected! Under this circumstances of Election climax, the voters and the masses needs to be well educated in scrutinizing the “who’s who” of the aspiring candidates, and tracing down the history of each family background be made inevitable to get the deserving leader. Those in power with guns should rather protect the people’s rights than to deprive them off... it, in fact they are really taking up the cause of the people. “May be, Election is the climax for those in powers with guns to reign supreme, but that turns an anti climax for the people with a wounded feeling of being oppressed”.

It’s high time, let’s wake up. It’s none, but we (the people) who is to bell the cat for the cleansing campaign of mass-awareness. Looking the other way will not help anyway. But to be bold enough to articulate the People’s rights to make those “God-like final authority mentality” (as if having the licence to kill) realised the importance of citizens can never ever be underestimated or be played with, nor could they be kept out in the democratic process of election which is the government by the “People” and not by the “Dictators”. “The sooner the electoral system be reformed and cleansed by leaving it solely to the people’s mandate, the better the formation for a healthy Democracy”.

People needs revival for social survival and justice: The great issue is at stake, and the call of the day is Vox Populi... Vox Dei, or the People’s rights, for it is said: “the voice of the people is the voice of God”. In this pursuit of the best ends by the best means the history clearly shows that no change for the better has been possible without the use of force either violence or non-violence. No doubt, America could have not become Independence if its people had not revolted against the “rulers” and if the people of the respective countries had not resorted to violence. Likewise, the Indians could have not achieved freedom if its people had not revolted against the British imperialism in its different forms of movements, violence and non-violence at different stages under the aegis of myriads leadership. “It was none other than Gandhiji who won India’s freedom with his non-violent movement that makes the British Empire met its Waterloo”.

The manipulative roles of the armed groups in this insurgent hegemony state of our society reminds us of the British Imperialism who control over India only to promote their own interest, or the English East India Company which was interested only in making money. To yield the desired fruit of Sovereignty, Independence and what not... by the armed groups in this insurgent regime state is well and good, but doubtful because of frequent coup d’tat within themselves have proved without contradiction that the Paradox of being a great crusaders of people’s cause without a true sense of humanity and patriotism.

The question now arise... what profit is it to them if they gains a big money on powers games with the politicians and loses the people’s confidence? OR what will they give to the people in return for they (the armed groups with their elected politicians) are well paid at the cause (cost) of people’s the rights. It is written in the Bible for you and for me... “what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? OR what will a man give in exchange for his soul”. (Mathew 16:26)

In the pursuit of the best ends by the best means for Social Survival and Justice, people needs to be revived, if not the best means for the best ends will remain a Utopia. The literal meaning here, for Social Survival and Social Justice is Social change which in short means Peace and Integrity. For attaining Peace and Integrity “You and I” must change first for a change... for, those who are in power with guns to reign supreme are non, but our sons, brothers, friends and relatives. No one is foreign to us. The open secret is because of the presence of numerous Public Sympathizers, Civil Organisations and Social workers aiding the armed groups indirectly. Not all, but half the blame game is to be borne by the public. “Because it’s the charity that always begins at home.” Let us all look up to Heaven and pray, for the Lord Says... “If my people who are called by name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face, and turned from their wicked ways, than I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sins and heal their Land”. (II Chronicles 7:14)

Unless we are convinced to choose this only option as the Lord said, our tainted “Democracy” which is more a way of life than a form of government is surely to tailspin. And we’d only be... “the straw that breaks the camels back”.
