Boycott Nirala Sweets

This late night email has arrived in my email inbox that tells me of a shameful incident. The people who own Nirala sweets are spreading sour taste in society.
The story goes that the filthy rich son of the owner of Nirala sweet house killed a two month old child in his Porsche rush. He was racing on the roads of DHA Lahore one late night when the victim's car came in the way and was ran over. This killed the child on the spot and sent his parents to the hospital in critical situation.
When the parents of the deceased tried to register a FIR against the rich car owner the police refused to comply as the accused is an influential man. The family members of the victim have been beaten up and threatened with grave consequences if they do not back down from pursuing the case against the owner of the car.
This does not sound shocking to me since i am used to hearing these news all so often. Most of the time i let go of these events knowing fully well that i can not do much to bring any change. But this one is different. I can do something and i will try and do my part. I will make pledge to never make any purchase from Nirala Sweet House till the case is resolved according to the law and victim is compensated.
I would urge my fellow bloggers and the readers of this blog to kindly consider similar action. I would urge fellow bloggers to at least post once about the event clearly mentioning the culprit in the post. this will not only serve to commit this heinous crime to cyber memory but also will help spread the word.
Join me in this boycott and help protect the voice of justice in this country. Let us all make one final push towards justice.

Learning Arduino 1

This holiday season I decided to gift myself some basic electrical components in the form of a Arduino UNO set from Elegoo. I have always had a desire to tinker with electronics and in gifting myself this basic set I am now starting on a journey to quench my inner electrical workman's thirst. I hope to develop this hobby as I move forward and will, from time to time, post about it here on the blog. As the journey moves forward I am sure to run into trouble and issues. But as they say you can not master anything without first being a fool at it, so I have decided to remain a fool at it until I am a little good at it. To start with, I do possess some elementary knowledge in electronics and electronic circuits. I intend to further my knowledge using the world wide web and following some very useful video channels on youtube. I will first start with some very basic projects to familiarize myself with Arduino and basic electronic circuits and techniques such as soldering. Then graduall...

Tax skirting by hospital systems?

The issue of avoiding federal taxes is in the news these days with Apple being in the spotlight.  Most of the times big companies avoid paying US taxes by skirting their profits to tax havens.  Healthcare giants can do the same theoretically.  Imagine if there were a health care giant that opens up shop in tax haven islands and then uses the same technique that commercial entities use to skirt their profits out of the country, thereby avoiding taxes.  This is very much possible.  The of shore clinics can be potentially used to complicate the tax return filing system here in US.  I could never understand why a completely US hospital system would like to open up a clinic in Bahamas.  These clinics are portrayed as the global reach of the entity but who do they actually serve.  We never hear about them in press or public.  These clinics are apparently manned by some doctors we never hear about.  How does this system work?  I really do...

Xbox ONE

I have recently purchased the newest version of Microsoft's gaming consoles, the Xbox One . This is a shift from my prior gaming system which was Sony's PS3 . I loved PS3 and preferred it over Xbox 360 for many reasons. It was smarter looking, faster, could play Blu rays, good games and all my friends had PS3s. However the most like able thing about it was the free online game play that Microsoft does not allow. Things I did not appreciate in Sony were its user interface. The move bundle was a waste of money for all intent and purposes as I used it once in the past two years. So this time around I decided to go with Microsoft's game console. The decision was not easy. Obviously PS4 has some good press out there and it is a step forward in technology. However now Xbox can play blu rays too. Also now both consoles require a subscription service for online game play. This sort of made me feel like Sony didn't care for us anymore. I guess paying money might mean better e...
