Winston Churchill

Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill is one of the most famous individuals of the 20th Century who successfully led Britain to victory during World War II. He was born on November 30th in the year 1874 and became a Member of Parliament in the year 1900. He was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1940 to 1945 and again from 1951 to 1955. He is a hero and is given credit for being one of the driving forces who inspired the United Kingdom to keep fighting against the Nazis.

Hitler went on to become the master of Europe in 1940 and had broken the Munich pact by invading Poland and further went on to defeat France. He was smart enough to realize the power and strength of Britain and proposed peace. Churchill knew that the intentions of Hitler were not good and he certainly was right not to judge Hitler and went on to continue the argument while others were willing to trust the latter. He provided strength to the country which was required to stand up to the most intense aerial bombing. His ability as a political orator came in handy and his speeches inspired the British people to keep fighting in spite of knowing that victory is far away. Taking right decisions such as destroying the French fleet at Mers-el-Kebir, Despite the threat of the German invasion, sending tanks to Egypt. He used every opportunity very wisely.

Churchill guided British military efforts abroad and his leadership on the home front was truly remarkable. His techniques presented him with powerful civilian support. German forces were busy invading Europe and Britain watched in horror as their ally France fell to Germany and so did the others leaving only Britain to challenge the latter 

At the time of the eight-month air attack, the British government devised techniques such as posters, videos to reassure civilians. The government monitored the opinions of the civilians though the crime rate rose, along with outcries of political dissenters, the firm resolution of the civilians shook Hilter’s hope of invading the country and the country breathed a sigh of relief through the war was far from being over. The Germans had underestimated a nation that was determined not to give up and stand strong under the stress of war.

After a rise to prominence in national politics before World War I, Churchill acquired a reputation for his judgment in the war and in the decade that followed. He was a lonely figure until his response to Adolf Hitler’s challenge brought him to the leadership of a national coalition in 1940. He then shaped Allied Strategy in World War II with Joseph Stalin and Franklin D. Roosevelt, and he alerted the west about the threat of the Soviet Union after the breakdown of the alliance.

Where Python language is used?

There is a vast variety of Python use cases across industries. Of course, the first thing that comes up when one thinks about the most common ways in which Python is employed is for building web, mobile, and desktop applications, as well as for testing them. But Python is a language that serves a multiplicity of purposes. Basically, these are the areas of use Python is perfect for:
Web app development


Data science

•Scripting

•Database programming

•Quick prototyping

Python is good for all forms of programming, which makes its user base grow rapidly. Cross-platform shell scripting, quick automation, simple web development, data analysis and visualization, AI and ML are some of the examples.

Often, specialists use Python to better perform a variety of tasks in different disciplines. Better performance, among others, may be achieved with the help of automation. Finance, insurance, and marketing are the primary fields, in which people face the necessity to do tasks that are repetitive and boring: viewing, copying, renaming, and uploading files to a server, downloading websites or parsing data. Instead, a programmer can write a script in Python and automate it all.

Moreover, you should not necessarily be a software developer to use Python. The language allows facilitating data analysis and visualization. It has a rich ecosystem comprising efficient libraries for data processing and therefore assisting data scientists in performing complex numeric computing operations.

Web Development

Web development is a method of providing site structure and maintenance and this is work done in the background, intending to keep the site look good, running quickly, and performing well with consistent customer interactions. Web developers use various programming dialects to do this. The dialect used depends on the type of errand. Performance and the stage of their work. Online promotion skills are popular all over the world, and they are well paid, making them an excellent career choice.

This is one of the areas that are easier to open up, and the rewards are more generous because you need not have to struggle with a formal university degree to obtain qualifications. The field of web development is mainly divided into front-end(client-side) and back-end(worker-side).

Comparing Front-End and Back-End Development

The Front-End web developer is responsible for layout, design, and interaction with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. He takes an idea from the drawing board and implements it. The content you see and use, such as the visual aspects of the website, drop-down menus, and text, is put together by a front-end developer who has written many programs to link and build elements, improve their appearance, and add interactivity. The program runs through the browser. It happened behind the scenes. This is where the data is stored. Without this data, there is no external interface.

The Back-End or the server side of the network consists of the server hosting the website, the application that starts the website, and the database where the website is located. Server-side developers use computer programs to ensure the smooth operation of servers, applications, and databases. Such developers need to analyze the company’s needs and propose effective software solutions. ng uses different server-side languages ​​such as PHP, Ruby, Python and Java.

The Industrial applications

In larger organizations and companies, a Web development team can consist of hundreds of people (Web developers) and follow standard practices such as agile Web development. Small organizations may only need a permanent or contract developer, or assist in the allocation of appropriate positions. As a graphic designer or IT expert. Web development can be collaborative work between departments, rather than the domain of a specific department. Web developer professions are divided into three types: front-end developers, back-end developers, and full-stack developers. Responsible for the actions and images that run in the user’s browser, while the internal developers are responsible for the server.

All of this may seem difficult to understand at first glance, but you don’t need to understand all of them immediately. You will gradually increase your awareness and things will start to click. The good news is that learning to be a developer is easy to get and access. This applies in particular to Open Classrooms.

Interview With An Inkpot!

“Writing permits me to be more than I am. Writing permits me to experience life as any number of strange creations.”

  • Alice Walker

Today’s article is an interview with Inky- The Inkpot. Yes! The same Inkpots that were used in ancient times for Fountain Pens! We thought of listening to all it had to say and yes, the interview with it was damn interesting!

The questions were as follows:

Our First Question For You Is, That What Do You Think Of The Writing Medium Used In This Era?

I feel extremely left out. By using me, people enjoyed writing all the more. Yes! Refilling the ink was necessary and may seem a hard task today, but writing with a fountain pen containing a cute feather perched on its top made the process, all the more merrier. The writing medium used in this era is mainly the laptop, if I am not wrong. This medium is easier, actually extremely easier as compared to me but that, I am afraid, doesn’t make writing a fun task anymore, is what I think!

Indeed! Since Length Of Write Ups Has Increased Nowadays, We Refrain From Using You Because That Would Make Writing A Tedious Task. Could You Suggest A Way Of Making Writing A Fun Task Through The Present Medium, That Is The Laptop?

Yes! I totally understand that writing has now intensified its nature. Earlier, write ups were a priceless art form, but today almost every individual is interested in getting into this area of creativity. Maybe that’s the reason, write ups have become meticulous and elaborate today and laptops make work easier. Well, in order to make work on the laptop interesting, I would suggest that you frame your write ups in a way that not only people but also you visualize them. Try to imagine the story yourself while framing it. This will automatically make your task interesting.

That Was Such An Important Point! What According To You Is The Worth Of Writing?

Writing is a precious art form and almost every person can write, if he has the will to. Writing has had its worth since the ancient times, when kings used me along with the fountain pen for sure, in order to state certain important messages and send them over to other kingdoms. Even today, write ups are used to send impactful messages across the globe. It is a great art form for introverts who fear to express their thoughts in public 😉

Indeed! I Am Eager To Use You At Least Once While Writing. Are You Available Now?

I am so glad to hear this, but I regret to say that I have entered the antique section and am no longer easily accessible. It is because of our decreasing demand today! Well, you can always visit museums in order to meet my relatives! However, I have seen certain people who are creatively shaping their pens by applying a feather at the top. Perhaps, you could try that but inkpots (we) won’t be of any use to you now!

Okay! I Will Definitely Try Doing That. What Do You Have To Say About Emails?

That makes me even more dejected. Letters were not only an effective medium of communication but also helped in enhancing cordial relations during the ancient period. Emails, no matter how formal they are, cannot ensure the happiness that letters provided when they popped into the nearest post! In short, all I have to say is that though the digital medium has made writing easier and convenient for man, it doesn’t meet the ‘buoyancy’ factor today. However, writing was, is, and shall always remain an important art form.

True! Lastly! Do You Wish To Address The Future Writers?

Indeed! Writing is an amazing art that requires utmost love and interest from your side. Don’t hesitate to get your words out in the world. Writing also, gives you an option to remain anonymous. So, if you are afraid to speak out, then write it down and get it published. Let the world know what you think. However, if you are interested in story writing then be that. Introduce the world to your creativity. Burying your head into your hands and adopting a demure approach won’t help!

Thank You So Much, Mr. Inkpot.

Covid massacre [ INDIA ]

Did you know INDIA was the first country in the world to beat coronavirus, in jan 2021?

At our peak in May, we had 400,000 cases per day and 4000 death per day. An experts say these figures are a gross underestimate. As we know many death hasn’t be registered in Government data.. Because in village, people were not aware about this. They think people die only with high fever, cough, etc.

Even now rest of the world reopens, We are still suffering. Our people are needlessly Dying. In hospital, there is neither oxygen cylinder nor necessary medicine. Our government has blood on its hand.

There in Feb 2021, Scientists began warning government about the new variants and the rise in cases. And of course, Government ignored.

In march, government refuse to cancel Kumbh Mela,And because of this there has been a significant increase in corona cases.

In April, Many parties leaders attended super spreader rallies in west bengal. So we can say that ” People vote matters, but people life doesn’t. “

Due to this Whole Scenario, Many people were dying everywhere,, Hundreds of death bodies were floating in the Ganga river. Death bodies found in the river of people who cannot afford funeral expenses.

In other hand, we produced more than 60 million vaccine doses for other counties. But we did not make enough vaccine for ourselves.

But nowadays the government is buying vaccines in large quantities from outside countries and is also producing it itself. And they Started large vaccine drive in India. India administered a record 82.7 lakh doses of Covid vaccine on 21 june 2021. i hope everything will be fine soon.

Peace Out.

The effect of climate change on Indian monsoon

Agriculture is the most popular occupation in India. The Indian farmers wait year long for monsoon to come and nurture their crops with some precipitation. The monsoon rainfall is highly beneficial for crops like rice, maize and pulses. However, the monsoon season in India has changed dramatically since the last decade. The 21st century monsoon is quite different from that of the 20th century. This new monsoon is characterized by volatile and erratic rainfall patterns.

North East gets less monsoon rainfall - Pratidin Time

The monsoon rainfall has become quite unpredictable. The rainfall is too heavy in some parts of the country which often leads to floods, landslides and water-logging. And the cause of such erratic rainfall pattern is climate change. The earth’s surface is getting heated up day by day as the amount of green house gases in the atmosphere is increasing.

The greenhouse gases like methane, carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide traps earth’s heat and do not let it escape the earth’s atmosphere. These greenhouse gases are emitted from industries. After the industrial revolution, the concentration of greenhouse gases in the earth’s atmosphere has increased leading to the heating up of the earth’s surface. Greenhouse gases are also produced due to burning of fossil fuels like coal, petroleum and natural gas. They are also increased by human activities like deforestation.

The more the earth’s atmosphere gets heated up, the more intense the rainfall becomes. Too heavy rainfall is not good for some crops like cereals. Also waterlogging can effect plant growth as it deprives the plants of oxygen and nitrogen.

The western countries are mostly responsible for the emission of greenhouse gases as the primary occupation in those developed countries is industrialization. And the developing countries like India are bearing the brunt of rapid industrialization as their primary occupation is agriculture. If crops are not grown, then it will have a serious effect on the country’s economy. Poor farmers would suffer whose livelihood depends on harvesting and selling crops. The farmers would have no income and their families would starve. It is high time that the government takes this case into consideration and cuts down the emission of greenhouse gases.

Ladakh – The link between India and Central Asia

Ladakh, situated in northernmost India bordered by the Tibet autonomous region to it’s east, the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh to it’s south, both Indian Jammu & Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan(PoK) to it’s west and the southwest corner of the Chinese Xinjiang autonomous region across the majestic karakoram pass in the far north, has always been a land of intrigue. The name ‘Ladakh’ means the land of high passes is full of great mountain passes like the Karakoram, Khardungla etc.

The largest town and capital of Ladakh is Leh, followed by Kargil. The Leh district contains the Indus, Shyok and Nubra river valleys while the Kargil district has the Suri, Dras and Zanskar river valleys. Being administrated as a union territory recently, it is the largest and second least populous union territory of India.

Since past, Ladakh has been important due it’s strategic location at the crossroads of important trade routes. Most notably the renowned Silk Road, which was and still is a network of trade routes connecting the East and West, and was key to the economic, cultural, political and religious interactions between these regions from the 2nd century BC to the 18th century. It primarily refers to the land but also sea routes connecting East Asia & Southeast Asia with South Asia, Persia(Iran), the Arabian Peninsula, East Adrian and Southern Europe.

Due to its contiguity with Xinjiang and Tibet and its close proximity to Central Asia, and enjoying a central position in the network of overland caravan routes that were linked to the Silk Route, Ladakh acted as an important gateway in the Indo-Central Asian exchange of men, materials and ideas through the ages. The great mountain barriers of the Hindu Kush, Karakoram, Kun Lun mountains and western Himalayas where not successful in stopping the trade from thriving.

The Central Asian Museum in Leh celebrates this rich cultural & trade history with Central Asia having many artifacts, photographs and art installations depicting trade through Ladakh. Notable exports to Central Asia were the famous Pashmina Shawls, Tea, Indigo, Coral, Salt etc. Imports from Central Asia were Bukharan and Kokandi gold coins(from the area which is now the country of Uzbekistan), Silk Cloth, Russian currency etc.

The trade and the caravan traders even helped in the urbanisation of Ladakh and giving it’s unique identity.

PIZZA MELTS


What do you get when a grilled cheese and a pepperoni pizza have a baby? A PIZZA MELT! (Sorry for yelling, I’m excited.) I used to eat these as an after-school snack when I was growing up because they’re super easy and who doesn’t want pizza? But now, decades later, I took this pizza-inspired sandwich to the next level by adding an herby-Parmesan butter to the bread which creates an extra crispy finish. It’s to die for and way better than the pizza melts of my teen years. You’ve got to try it!

A stack of pizza melts cut in half on a plate against a blue background.


WHAT KIND OF BREAD TO USE FOR PIZZA MELTS
You definitely want to use some sort of sturdy bread for your pizza melt. If you try to use a soft white sandwich bread it just won’t hold up to the moisture in the pizza sauce. I used a sourdough loaf, which gave my pizza melts even more flavor. Something like a rosemary olive oil bread or some homemade focaccia would also be amazing. Just make sure the bread is strong!




WHAT ELSE CAN YOU PUT ON A PIZZA MELT?
A pizza melt, even in its most basic form (pizza sauce, cheese, pepperoni), is awesome, but if you happen to have some leftover ingredients on hand and you want to throw them on there, go for it! Here are a few ideas:

Diced bell pepper
Olives
Red onion
Bacon bits
Ham
Spinach
Mushrooms
Feta cheese
Banana peppers
Sun dried tomatoes
I would caution against using any ingredient that is very wet, like fresh tomatoes or canned artichoke hearts, since this can make the bread soggy.

calorie

The calorie was first introduced by Nicolas Clément, as a unit of heat energy, in lectures during the years 1819–1824. This was the “large” calorie, viz. modern kilocalorie.[3][6] The term entered French and English dictionaries between 1841 and 1867. It comes from Latin calor ‘heat’.

The “small” calorie (modern calorie) was introduced by Pierre Antoine Favre (Chemist) and Johann T. Silbermann (Physicist) in 1852. In 1879, Marcellin Berthelot distinguished between gram-calorie (modern calorie) and kilogram-calorie (modern kilocalorie).[6] Berthelot also introduced the convention of capitalizing the kilogram-calorie, as Calorie.

The use of the kilogram-calorie (kcal) for nutrition was introduced to the American public by Wilbur Olin Atwater, a professor at Wesleyan University, in 1887.[3]

The modern calorie (cal) was first recognized as a unit of the cm-g-s system (cgs) in 1896,[6] alongside the already-existing cgs unit of energy, the erg (first suggested by Clausius in 1864, under the name ergon, and officially adopted in 1882).

Already in 1928 there were serious complaints about the possible confusion arising from the two main definitions of the calorie and whether the notion of using the capital letter to distinguish them was sound.[7] Use of the calorie was officially deprecated by the ninth General Conference on Weights and Measures, in 1948.[8]

The alternate spelling calory is archai

SUBSTANCE ABUSE

Substance abuse or addiction refers to the habitual use or dependency on dangerous substances such as liquor/alcoholic beverages, tobacco, bidis/cigarettes, and medications (for purposes other than prescribed medical treatment). As the variety of addictive substances grows, more and more people, particularly those in their twenties, get addicted. There are numerous elements that contribute to young people and adults falling into the trap of substance misuse. Peer pressure, an unfavourable familial environment, and stress are among these variables.

Substance abuse is a medical and psychological condition that requires treatment. Parents must be considerate to their children, especially during the transition from infancy to adolescence and maturity, when significant physical changes occur. Adolescents are naturally inquisitive; they are constantly discovering new worlds, ideas, behaviours, and relationships. Some people get exposed to medicines as a result of the practise. They are likely to be trapped unless their environment, relatives, schools, and friends teach them about the negative impacts of drug use. The most prevalent and dangerous addictive behaviours are drinking and smoking.

Drinking or consuming liquor/alcohol is a severe social concern. The simplest hobby is to drink and temporarily forget about troubles and tensions. Its addiction has major ramifications. Even with meagre incomes, drunkards purchase liquor while putting the necessities of their families at risk. If they cannot afford the more expensive standard variety, they opt for the less expensive variant. They drink even deadly drinks at times. They lose their wits after drinking. It can result in death or severe disability. Most of the time, after drinking, they abuse their wives and children, resulting in domestic violence.

Smoking is a behaviour that is far more detrimental to one’s health than drinking. It not only harms the smokers, but also the people around them who are affected by the smoke in the air. If we respect the rights of others, we should refrain from smoking in public venues such as buses, trains, marketplaces, and offices. Smoking is a major source of pollution and contributes to the development of dangerous diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and breathing problems, among others. Tobacco use, particularly smoking, is the leading cause of death worldwide, according to the World Health Organization. Smoking in public places has been prohibited by the Union Cabinet. It has prohibited the selling of tobacco products near schools and universities. Manufacturers of these products are required to provide a warning to consumers about the negative consequences of their products in the form of a caption on the product itself.

PREVENTION– Drug and alcohol abuse prevention might begin at home. Parents can communicate to their children about the dangers of drug and alcohol abuse. Talking to children when they are young, in particular, can lay a solid foundation for drug awareness. This allows parents to favourably impact their children while also teaching them about boundaries. When it comes to teaching boundaries, parents assist their children understand when to say no to something that could injure them while also controlling the dynamic of an inappropriate request. Prevention discussions also foster stronger ties and guidance between children and parents. Parents can build consistency in communication as well as long-term advice for their children. Preventative talks can help an adolescent build trust with their parent and make good judgments about their habits, friends, interests, and influences. There are governmental agencies, community leaders, and school personnel that attempt to teach children about living a drug-free life. Much of this is to prevent teen drug abuse before they reach adulthood or go into the real world. As a result of these educational tools, teen drug abuse has significantly decreased from previous decades.

MANAGE REFUGEE INFLUX

ISSUES

According to data collected by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR), India has close
to 2 lakh refugees living within its territory with the number constantly rising. However, unofficial reports
place the figure at above 4.5 lakh.Currently, the only law specifically governing refugees in India is through
judicial decisions regulating specific situations. There are also ad hoc administrative advisories by the
Ministry of Home Affairs, regulating specific situations concerning refugees, such as the Advisory on preventing and combating human
trafficking in India, dated 1 May 2012

In the absence of specific legislation pertaining to refugees, the general law applicable to foreigners, the
Foreigners Act, 1946, applies to refugees as well. The status of refugees is determined by UNHCR,
but it has limited reach and resources.These ad hoc, case-specific measures lead to a two-fold problem.

First, India’s national security interest
are hamere by the absence of a content legal structure to ensure that all non-citizens resident in India are properly documented and have a legitimate reason for their presence in India. Second, the lack of a law
providing certain basic rights to refugees violates India’s obligations under customary international law,which it is subject to, notwithstanding
its non-ratification of the 1951 Refugee Convention.

SOLUTION

The foremost requirement in the Indian legal framework is a definition of the term ‘refugee’. This is essential for
any legislation making any provision for refugees, since the term is not easily defined. Second, the single most important principle relating to refugees in international law needs to be recognised in Indian law – that of non-refoulement, or non-return to country of origin. The Foreigners Act penalises those who enter the country
without valid identity documents, or may prohibit entry of such persons
into India. This implies that refugee-seekers are liable to be returned to the country they are fleeing from. A legal
solution needs to be worked out to prevent this.

As a consequence of accepting refugee-seekers at the border, a structured system must be put in
place for refugee status-determination.Moreover, a procedure with such
critical security implications should be controlled and carried out entirely by the government. As a result of this procedure, once a person is admitted into the country as a refugee, he needs to be issued a permit, either in
form of a long-term visa or a refugee permit. This will serve as an identity document, and assist the government in maintaining records.

IMPLEMENTATION AND IMPACT

The following amendments are required in the Foreigners Act, 1946,to implement the above:
1.The term ‘refugee’ needs to be defined as a person who, owing to well-founded fear of persecution based on race, religion, nationality,
membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside his country of nationality, or if having no nationality, is outside his country of habitual residence and i unable or, owing to such fear, unwilling to avail
himself of that country’s protection.
2. Exceptions must be carved out for refugees, codifying the principle of non-refoulement, wherever the Act prohibits or imposes penalties for being present in India without valid
documents.
3. A new section should be inserted in the Act, requiring status determination of refugees at the border, along with providing an identification document;
provision for rules outlining criteria for status determination as well as
officials responsible for the same.

CONCLUSION

These changes in the Foreigners Act will be the first key steps towards legal
recognition of refugees in India.

Is there really a new variant of COVID-19 out there?

From the past couple of days, reports have been surfacing that a new variant of corona virus i.e. a delta variant can be found in a few patients. So how is this variant different and what we need to do to be cautious?

Just when we thought we were going back to normal now, Indian scientists detected a new delta plus variant in 22 samples from all over the country. First found in Jammu and Kashmir, this variant is now also seen in patients of Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Kerala. 6 of those 22 sample are from Maharashtra and the remaining are divided between Kerala and Madhya Pradesh. 2 patients of this variant were reported in Ujjain district of Madhya Pradesh and death on one of them, a woman was reported on wednesday.

We are still not very clear about how and in what ways is this variant different from the others and does the vaccine we are provided with is effective on this virus. But yes this variant is yet not classifed as ‘variant of concern’ but we need to be concerned and take all the necessary precautions.

According to Dr. Mike Ryan who is the executive director of WHO, delta variant has a possibility “to be more fatal because it’s more efficient in the way it transmits between humans”. This variant is likely to affect the vulnerable people i.e. people with less immunity according to World Health Organization officials.

So, it is not over yet. Even if we are fully vaccinated let’s not be reckless and wear a mask and maintaing social distancing whenever we are out. Things will get better.

Ecommerce in India!

So let’s have a look that what does ecommerce mean~ E-commerce is the activity of electronically buying or selling of products on online services or over the Internet.

And if we talk about “Ecommerce in India” then, India has an Internet user base of about 696.77million as of May 2020, about 40% of the population. In 2017, the largest e-commerce companies in India were Flipkart, Snapdeal and Amazon. In 2018, Amazon beat Flipkart and was recorded the biggest ecommerce in India in terms of revenue. And it’s rapidly growing up day by day.

In India, cash on delivery is the most preferred payment method, accumulating 75% of the e-retail activities. Demand for international consumer products (including long-tail items) is growing faster than in-country supply from authorised distributors and e-commerce offerings. Long tail business strategy allows companies to realize significant profits by selling low volumes of hard-to-find items to many customers, instead of only selling large volumes of a reduced number of popular items. The term was first coined in 2004 by Chris Anderson.

In 2017, the largest e-commerce companies in India were Flipkart, Snapdeal and Amazon. In 2018, Amazon beat Flipkart and was recorded the biggest ecommerce in India in terms of revenue.

And some of the ecommerce sites are:

1. Amazon.in

2. Flipkart

3. Snapdeal

4. ebay India

5. IndiaMART

6. Shopclue

And so on…

But one should properly check the product and should take a clear look in the mind that this product is the only one which I want to purchase and they’ve can go on but inspection of the product must be the first priority of the customer.
