On Women and Work 2008-01-08 09:40:00 The position of women in our society is characterized by multiple roles. A woman is a mother, wife, sister, and daughter; may be all at the same time. In some cases women are working persons as well. What do men – fathers, brothers, husband or other male family members -- think about women working away from home? In our society, women's options to pursue a career or stay home largely rest with the male members who generally decide about it under the influences like particular family situations, family and social background and the financial needs.Women are seen working in corporate Pakistan largely doing jobs which have traditionally been labelled as women's work like clerical, secretarial, catering, teaching, public relations and front desk, medical practitioners and other health related jobs, labourers in production units and to some extent in human resources and marketing fields, notwithstanding exception that can be found in almost any discipline; far and few.In many cases wome ...

"The Korean interpreter was lost, but did not show it. He uttered a few sentences and the audience laughed and applauded," writes Woolcott .Later the interpreter confessed to the real reason for the laughter. "Frankly, minister, I did not understand your joke so I said in Korean that the minister has told his obligatory joke, would you all please laugh heartily and applaud." {Via)Thanks Axinia ...

Avatars 2008-01-03 01:39:00 There is a statue in a square of Rotterdam. This effigy has been carved out of stone. It is a human looking up into the sky, as if trying to stop what is coming down with his hands raised.There is a hole where his heart should be. Disproportionate, parts of the figure are not at the right places nor are seemingly fitting in the scheme of sculpture – neck is not exactly in the centre of the shoulders and is sticking out, elbows are at a little distance from arms. Similarly, legs, ankles, feet, stomach and chest all seem out of place. Seeing the sculpture from a distance gives an impression that it will wither away with the wind.This Artwork was put on display in Rotterdam in 1951. Reflection of thoughts of sculptor Ossip Zadkine, thinkers of the city as well as the municipality, this statue was erected here after the World War II to commemorate bombing and burning down of the city.This is my new avatar. What does it reveal? I think the statue reveals human inner conflict; Disorder in ...

Windows Multipoint 2008-01-01 12:00:00 CubanoLast weekend I wrote a post called ‘One Laptop Per Child’ that discussed the issue of providing cheap computers for children in developing countries. Though the OLPC project is a good idea it is marred with various problems. I discussed some of the issues in that post and also mentioned some alternatives. Recently I came across a press release by Microsoft that highlighted a new technology called Windows Multipoint. Though not necessarily an alternative to OLPC, Windows Multipoint sounds like an exciting and simple solution to the problem of insufficient computers in the classrooms of developing countries. Developed by Microsoft Research India Windows Multipoint allows multiple students to interactively access a personal computer at the same time using various peripheral devices. For example, multiple mice are plugged in and cursors are colored differently for each student.At first I was skeptical about this technology. How can multiple students effectively use a single compu ...
