Saturday, March 14, 2009. Eons since I blogged, I know. What can I say, any guilt I may have felt about letting this space rot has usually been compensated for by the full, full. Time I've been having here. New city, new life, new people, new lifestyle. let's say I've been too busy savouring all the newness to record the feeling here :P. Post (proper one, I mean, not an excuse of a post, an excuse for no posts) coming up real soon, though, so hold your guns, oink, and watch this space :P.

Boys will be boys | Learning to be Terse
https://croor.wordpress.com/2014/04/12/boys-will-be-boys
Skip to search - Accesskey = s. Learning to be Terse. Boys will be boys. By Croor Singh on April 12, 2014. Mulayam Singh Yadav, once a possible candidate for the Prime Minister’s post, has basically said of rape. It was standard procedure until about a month ago. I have no doubt that there are doctors who haven’t got the memo. Is it surprising that men who’ve grown up in such a culture treat women like crap? Or talk flippantly about rape in political speeches? Fn1: I am not saying here that “he pro...

I’ve got one finger for the two-finger test | Learning to be Terse
https://croor.wordpress.com/2014/10/08/one-finger-for-the-two-finger-test
Skip to search - Accesskey = s. Learning to be Terse. I’ve got one finger for the two-finger test. By Croor Singh on October 8, 2014. In the wake of Mulayam Yadav’s ‘Boys will be Boys’ comments at an election rally in mid-April, about the two-finger test having been ruled illegal. This was in early-March. I feared that women would continue to get harassed by the medical establishment. It was standard procedure until about a month ago. I have no doubt that there are doctors who haven’t got the memo. The i...

Some thoughts on living in India and Sri Lanka | Learning to be Terse
https://croor.wordpress.com/2014/05/02/some-thoughts-on-living-in-india-and-sri-lanka
Skip to search - Accesskey = s. Learning to be Terse. Some thoughts on living in India and Sri Lanka. By Croor Singh on May 2, 2014. I started writing again on the blog about a month ago. Some thoughts on living in India and Sri Lanka. There is a Sri Lankan law (like 377 a relic from the colonial age) that prohibits “grossly indecent” behaviour, something that’s conveniently left undefined (again, just like 377’s language of “against nature”). Section of the IPC),. The mention of Sri Lanka comes from thi...

What language does a deaf person think in? | Learning to be Terse
https://croor.wordpress.com/2010/07/18/what-language-does-a-deaf-person-think-in
Skip to search - Accesskey = s. Learning to be Terse. What language does a deaf person think in? By Croor Singh on July 18, 2010. I’ve seen this cartoon posing a clever question from a bunch of people. It isn’t clever just because it’s funny. It is that too, but it should also make one think about language and thought in general. This would be a nice point to say something about Steven Pinker’s book,. In a chapter titled. A language developed by a totalitarian state that has no words for. Which, it turns...

Nair's Tea Stall: Moving out
http://oralmathram.blogspot.com/2010/08/moving-out.html
Sunday, August 29, 2010 by Vineeth Nair. I've packed my bags and moved my stall to Wordpress. It's a more user friendly (read dumbed down) site for poor souls like me to manage posts and comments. There's a button for practically everything. The text looks nice as well. You can find me here. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Net neutrality in India, or what Airtel will do next | Learning to be Terse
https://croor.wordpress.com/2014/12/30/net-neutrality
Skip to search - Accesskey = s. Learning to be Terse. Net neutrality in India, or what Airtel will do next. By Croor Singh on December 30, 2014. A fifth of the country now has regular access to the internet. Internet access is, therefore, no longer a vanity; it is what might be called a public utility (like electricity or water) and should be to be regulated as such. Would you be OK with having to pay more for using electricity to power your computer rather than a TV? Activists for net neutrality. Enter ...

Skewed Universe: February 2012
http://hegdevinayi.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 11, 2012. Don't you think we are soulmates? Swimming in the fish bowl. Year after year like Floyd said? Made to live our solitary lives. Apart, craving each other's warmth. Like single reptiles writhing in winter, cold? Fully knowing we'll kill the other together. Tidings behind the veil. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Evanston, Illinois, United States. View my complete profile. Fancies, theories, et cetera. Is in my head. Veni, Vidi, Vetti. The blessed valley of Sight.

READ MY MIND: I'm sick and tired of you!
http://read--my--mind.blogspot.com/2008/04/im-sick-and-tired-of-you.html
Wednesday, 23 April 2008. I'm sick and tired of you! Okay Flu, so you caught me, or rather, I caught you, though I had no intention of doing so. Now that you've stayed with me the past three days, giving me sleepless nights and sleepy days, when do you plan on taking your leave? Would get the point and take a hike. Let me say it loud and clear now so you understand me this time. GET LOST! I had a bout of the flu in Feb/March, and it lasted for ever and ever. Ugh. I hates it. 29 April 2008 at 18:04.

READ MY MIND: May 2008
http://read--my--mind.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, 15 May 2008. I'm done with my exams at last. I'm done with graduation. It'll be months before my results are out and more months before my convocation, but I'm pretty much done with graduation. And while there's a sense of accomplishment. And happiness that I've gotten through 15 years of education unscathed, there's this feeling of dread too. Until. Now it's been easy for me, I always loved science and maths so when I finished my tenth I knew which way to go,and by the end of pre.
