Cricket, Stripping and a Publicity Interested Litigation (PIL)

Judges are complaining about PILs? Yes, our judiciary is overburdened by PIL. Going through some of the PILs, I wondered many times, what is the public interest in this? If I had some academic interest, would have tried to find the percentage of PILs that has got some public interest. Some people really misinterpret PILs are Publicity Interested Ligation or Politics Influenced Litigation. The recent one being unknown(atleast to me) model promising to strip for the Indian cricket team, if they win world cup. Helloo.. did someone take it seriously. If some news papers have some unfilled columns and if some masala new channels have some free airtime, they can advertise it. Let us analyze the public interest in this. General public opinion 1 - Who is this girl? Publicity stunt. Not interested. 2 - Good for cricketers. Not interested as I can see it live 3 -Cricketers opinion - We have better options ;) But, what about the self-proclaimed moral police of our society. Yes definitely t...

Time : A Public Interest Litigation

Your Honour, This is Time and the litigation is against 80% of human beings in this world. This litigation is not to punish anybody, but to gentle reminder for people who falsely accuse me for their mistakes. I am probably the only perfect but most accused person in this entire world.

Hmm.. what they dont know is that these small things they miss out decides their life. I have heard may people say that I am running fast. My Lord, this is false allegation. I ...

Entropy and Blogging?

Why Entropy for my blog title?? It is one of the few words I remember from my Physics classes. This one especially is from thermodynamics, which I was not a big fan then. But I liked this word as I remember vaguely that it is a degree of disorder. And me being a person who likes a bit of disorder, I guess it is a default (thanks to my software experience) attribute, I thought this would suit. Also the literal meaning of entropy is the uncertainty of an outcome. And for sure in my blogging the only thing I am sure is that I am not sure what is going to come out. The word ‘default’ reminds me of a friend in the days of our computer classes. We went to a hotel for breakfast and he asked the waiter to get us the 'default'. The waiter (obiviously not a s/w programmer, not sure.. it was during one of the recession period) requested him check the menu again. Btw, this friend of mine is definitely a blogging topic. For sure,   sometime later. Interestingly, when I ‘google’d about entro...
