Gender Imbalance in India:causes and Consequences - (USA)
GENDER IMBALANCE IN INDIA: CAUSES & CONSEQUENCES Madan Mohan .L* India is one of the countries across the world which has the lowest and the declining gender ratio. It is in general 933 females against 1,000 males as per 2001 census.

2009's Best Biotech Stocks - (USA)
On November 30, 2007, I presented my thesis on why I thought biotechnology was the next big bull market . My thesis was simple: a month-and-a-half earlier, a woman named Kathleen Casey-Kirschling was the first baby boomer to file for Social Security benefits. Little did anybody know this marked the day that the 21 st Century's biggest bull market began. The numbers are staggering. . . An average of 10,000 baby boomers is set to file for Social Security every single day for the ne

Chinese experts debate nature of internet addiction - (USA)
The Xinhua News Agency website has a headline news story reporting that Chinese experts are now hotly debating the topic of who should bear responsibility for curing internet addiction, and whether or not internet addiction should be considered a form of illness. These arguments follow the death of a teenager in Nanning, the capital of Guangxi, who was killed while receiving treatment for internet addiction. “Is internet addiction an illness? If so, how should it be cured, and who should

Son of Humanities Researcher - (USA)
... hath a blog! Here's the link to Love, Society, Videogames and Life, full of wonderfully obscure cartoons, many at the expense of the social sciences. Goodness! where did that come from? This is the child who was commenting the other day, too, that most of our friends were academics.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau - Discourse on Inequality - (USA)
About a third of the way through Rousseau’s Discourse on Inequality*, I nearly threw my pages across the room. Not only because I disagree with his romanticized version of the “savage man” but because I happened to read this: Now it is easy to perceive that the moral part of love is a factitious sentiment, engendered by society, and cried up by the women with great care and address in order to establish their empire, and secure command to that sex which ought to obey. It’s very difficult to

Gates of Vienna News Feed 11/29/2008 - (USA)
Besides the latest from Mumbai, the most interesting news tonight concerns the BNP. The Labour government’s policy of overt persecution towards the BNP and other dissenters has backfired, and the BNP is gaining in strength. There are a couple of reports below about yesterday’s BNP demonstration in Liverpool, which was mounted as a response to the arrest of three party members for handing out leaflets.Thanks to C.

UK to crack down on tantriks, babas - (USA)
“A fool and his money are soon parted.” Thomas Tusser (English Farmer and Writer 1524-1580) Authorities in the desi-centric town of Leicester, England, are cracking down on tantriks, babas and their likes. [ TOI ] (Sidhu via email) Authorities in the east Midlands town of Leicester, better known as ‘Little India’, have announced a campaign against such ‘babas’ and ‘tantriks’, most of whom have origins in the Indian sub-continent.

INTERMEX FINANCIAL (2009-08-06 11:14) - (USA)
How to rebuild a shamed subject By Robert Skidelsky It was to be expected that our present economic traumas would call into question the state of economics. “Why did no one see the crisis coming?”, Queen Elizabeth reportedly asked one practitioner. A seminar at the British Academy tried to answer and the FT has taken up the discussion. The Queen’s question is understandable, given the subject’s claims on its own behalf. Ever since modern economics started in the 18th century it h

Literature Against Itself - (USA)
As English professors all over the country head back to their classrooms in a few weeks to encourage another young cohort of students to “experience” literary texts in light of the most recent progressive thought, it might be well to recall Literature Against Itself , Gerald Graff’s pioneering attack on literary theory, which was published by the University of Chicago Press exactly thirty years ago. The book was particularly “meaningful” to me. Five years after its appearance, I enrolled at

We are the robots - (USA)
Some authors spend their careers skipping from one theme to another. Others, like Richard Evans, concentrate on one. His first novel, called Machine Nation, was published in 2002, and imagined a near future in which the philosophical questions surrounding robotic life are beginning to press. In subsequent robot books - Robophobia and Exilium - he has continued to investigate these issues within a thriller framework. Richard is unusual in that he is particularly dedicated to realism in his bo

Need of Community Policing in India - (USA)
Man is a social animal and lives in the society. In India the constitution has set up many things in the society. Different laws are imposed on the public for different works. For the enforcement of the law, the police play an important role. In India, except some states, others are facing the problem of increasing crime rate day by day. The main reason for that is the public-police ratio. Due to the increasing population the number of police persons is insufficient. In such situation the police

Ok, I am back from a very successful E-Learn 2008 Conference in Las Vegas. I actually got home a few days ago, but it has taken a little while to catch my breath. We set attendance records with more than 1,000 attendees. We had a highly engaging and rewarding preconference symposium on e-learning in Asia with 12 participants from 12 countries. We will turn that into a special journal issue on e-learning in Asia during the next few months and perhaps a print on demand book. We also had many excel
