A tunnel of friendship!

Prologue : Is there another Kargil conspiracy on cards? Is Kiyani following suit (The suit hanged off by his mentor Musharraf ?). See the news piece below:  

"The two alleged Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terrorists arrested last week in J&K claimed that a tunnel is being dug under the Indo-Pak border from Sialkot in Pakistan to Jammu. One of the terrorists, Mohammad Shafakat Kasav who is about 20 , claimed to have worked for 45 days, along with 50 others, on the tunnel that is approximately 8 ft in height and 4 ft in width."

Epilogue : After 'Train to Pakistan' [the novel], 'Samjhauta Express' and 'Lahore Bus', this is new connecting link (of friendship! enmity?) in making, eh? My God!

Want to win the race, go to bed

Prologue : Early to bed and early to rise formula is out dated now. The new research reveals, at least:

“It's the late risers who have the advantage, and can outperform the early birds,” said Philippe Peigneux, a professor of clinical neuropsychology at the Free University of Brussels in Belgium, who along with co-author Christina Schmidt published the counterintuitive findings in the latest issue of the journal Science."

Epilogue :So, don't wait go to bed, if there is a long run ahead. So now you can recite the traditional motivational verses in new style, "Jo sowat hai wo pavat hai, jo jaagat hai wo gavanvat hai."

Mind this kidding

Prologue :I, not only me say, most of us used to play a lot with toy trains. Remote control train is all time favourite. Imagine the situation, when a boy finds remote control of operation network of the city train:

"A Polish teenager allegedly turned the tram system in the city of Lodz into his own personal train set, triggering chaos and derailing four vehicles in the process. Twelve people were injured in one of the incidents. 

+++

He studied the trams and the tracks for a long time and then built a device that looked like a TV remote control and used it to manoeuvre the trams and the tracks," said Miroslaw Micor, a spokesman for Lodz police.

Epilogue :Should we depend so much on machines? A major tragedy averted as some people pulled the chain of emergency breaks. Perhaps, the suspision of a similar situation has inspired former Railway Minister, Laloo Prasad Yaday, just after BJP leaders LK Advani and subsequently Rajnath Singh, to dump EVMs-Electronic Voting Machines. Now, Laloo Yadav is going to launch an agitation in favour of mannual age old process of voting.

Babies make us honest

Prologue : Infant theft is a threat mounting any-(every)-where. Swapping of infants is more prevalent. But, new research reveals something else. 

"Hundreds of wallets were planted on the streets of Edinburgh by psychologists last year. Perhaps surprisingly, nearly half of the 240 wallets were posted back. But there was a twist.

+++ 

The baby photograph wallets had the highest return rate, with 88 per cent of the 40 being sent back. Next came the puppy, the family and the elderly couple, with 53 per cent, 48 and 28 respectively. At 20 per cent and 15, the charity card and control wallets had the lowest return rates."

Epilogue : Scientists say pics of cute babies made people more honest. Would they respond similarly if there were not be the pics, but babies? Yes, conditions apply. Honest is honest and dis... vice-versa.

Mind your biz, not mine

Prologue : May be, several ideas, several thousand business ideas, and several million different ideas moving in your mind. You try some of them, and succeed in some of them in your life. Many of these ideas belong to some good cause. To make some fund raise for worthy cause. A brothel can be speedy fund raiser. Ever, think of it? 

A New Zealand taekwondo athlete has opened a brothel to help fund his bid to compete at the 2012 London Olympics 

Epilogue : It's not the way, it's the target to be focused on. May this guy's idea working, at least hope for the best, always.
