Last updated on: December 19, 2012 at 9:04 am By Desh Kapoor

If soccer is going to be the next craze, then it will really improve the Indian sports scene. And with such schools entering India to mentor and prepare Indian player, such a possibility could be there in future.

Times Internet acquires share in Fab.com

Last updated on: December 19, 2012 at 8:47 am By Desh Kapoor

Times of India group has made a major investment in the fast growing e-commerce start-up Fab.com through the group company Times Internet. The investment is supposed to be in 7 figures. Personally, I think it is a very smart move by Satyan Ganjwani and probably the first serious attempt by an Indian web company to get a global footprint. Fab founder and CEO Jason Goldberg announced on his blog that Times Internet has made a seven-figure investment in the company,... Read more

Instagram wanted to sell your photos?!

Last updated on: December 19, 2012 at 8:30 am By Desh Kapoor

First Instagram – which is anyways in a mess due to its Twitter disengagement decision – made another blunder – saying that it can sell your images. Instagram said today that it has the perpetual right to sell users’ photographs without payment or notification, a dramatic policy shift that quickly sparked a public outcry. The new intellectual property policy, which takes effect on January 16, comes three months after Facebook completed its acquisition of the popular photo-sharing site. Unless Instagram... Read more

Women can close the Salary Gap if they don’t compete with men

Last updated on: December 19, 2012 at 7:52 am By Desh Kapoor

The salary inequality between men and women is well known in the corporate world today. And there has been a lot of effort to reduce that gap, but it hasn’t really come down. Now, one research suggests that only when women work in sectors different from men, they are able to earn equally or even more than men in that sector. So, majority and specialization counts. Women earn less money than men the more the sexes share the same occupations,... Read more

Why is a society of Sunny Leones, Power-Money, Ramdev/Hazare-bashing so clueless about the Rape Epidemic?

Last updated on: December 18, 2012 at 2:54 pm By Desh Kapoor

When Gautam Buddha was setting up his Sangha, he admitted only male monks. He is supposed to have said that if he admits women as well, his spiritual path that he was offering, will remain spiritually active for about 700-800 years. With male only students, it will remain active for over 2500 years. Even Buddha didn’t trust his own monks beyond a certain limit. And that was in isolation, with hard spiritual sadhanas and austerities. India of today has porn... Read more

Ironically, Adam Lanza lived on “Yogananda Street”!

Last updated on: December 18, 2012 at 1:49 pm By Desh Kapoor

Paramahansa Yogananda once said: “Anger gives birth to jealousy, hatred, spite, revengefulness, destructive instinct, wild ideas, brain paralysis, and temporary insanity – any of which may lead to terrible crimes.” Ironically, Adam Lanza, the infamous shooter of the kids at Sandy Hook Elementary School, lived at 36, Yogananda Street. I am not from the area, but it seems that there at least was – at some point, if not today – a Vedanta and Yoga retreat on Berkshire road, just a... Read more

Is Modi getting a Landslide in Gujarat?

Last updated on: December 17, 2012 at 5:01 pm By Desh Kapoor

It seems Narendra Modi is all set to win the Gujarat poll by a landslide. Apparently, the higher voter turnout was to push Modi’s margin up as opposed to pull him down. ABP-Nielsen Exit Poll is suggesting. Although News 24 suggests that Modi can get closer to 140 seats while Congress will be closer to 40 and others – including Keshubhai Patel – will get measly 2! ABP News-Nielsen Exit Poll has found that BJP will bag a landslide majority... Read more
