My City Links April 2023 Issue by My City Links Pdf

Many first-time visitors to Bhubaneswar can be forgiven for believing that the Odisha capital is only about modern infrastructure and urban living. But ask old-time residents and they will scratch beneath the surface to come up with some sharp insights about a city that is a confusing amalgamation of the ancient and the modern. Our Cover Story is thus both a celebration of Bhubaneswar's glorious past as well as a look at the challenges that stare the city's planners in the face. As we celebrate the 88th Odisha Foundation Day on April 1, we turn the spotlight on Odisha's rich cultural heritage and examine how the legacy is being carried forward in spheres like literature, classical dance, music, and cinema. The concept of tuition classes has been transformed by the emergence of start-ups in the EdTech sector. This has also thrown up several uncomfortable and disturbing questions. We look at the big picture in City Tech. We also gaze to Skyhawk, India’s first 5G drone. One of the founders of the start-up which developed the drone shares interesting insights into the making of the drone that is capable of vertical take-off and landing. With April 2 being observed as World Autism Day, the City Health section brings you an informative news feature on a condition that comes with more than a fair share of misconceptions. This edition also features IT professional-cum-mountaineer Sidharth Routray, who talks about a readiness to face extreme challenges and what the future may hold for him. The City Affairs section looks at cases of acid attacks in Odisha, some common causes behind them, and the legal framework to deal with such incidents. Over the past few years, Kalinga Stadium has become synonymous with big-ticket sporting events in India. A series of successful events held at the venue has reinforced Bhubaneswar’s image as the sports capital of India and put it on the world map. Read all about it in City Sports. Getting noticed by music maestro AR Rahman is really a big deal, and nobody knows this better than Samir Rishu Mohanty, aka Big Deal. The rapper from Odisha recently made it to the cover of the reputed Rolling Stone India magazine, posing with Rahman. Read more about his journey in Screen Shots. The section also features Gaurav Anand, the music sensation who has composed for several Odia projects in recent times. In a free-wheeling chat, the popular musician talks about his journey so far and his plans for the future.

How gender orientation is getting a clearer expression through Sex Reassignment Surgery A notable event across the world in June every year is the Pride Month which is meant to honor and recognize the LGBTQ+ community. Our Cover Story for this edition delves into a specific aspect that is crucial to the transgender community, Sex Reassignment Surgery. We speak to some prominent faces from the community to understand more about this life-changing medical procedure. The in-depth feature also analyses the way ahead for the entire community. Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore’s connection with Odisha has been talked about since his visit in 1919. A special feature brings you more on this. In City Sports, we highlight how some extremely tough and fiercely competitive disciplines, particularly in athletics, fail to get the kind of recognition that they deserve. We also bring you an informative news feature on the motorsport Formula 1 and what goes on behind the scenes to make it popular. Not so long ago, everybody’s favourite sweet, the ‘Rasagola’, was at the centre of an unlikely ‘war’ between people from Odisha and West Bengal over its origins. The matter was finally settled with the authorities granting the prestigious Geographical Index (GI) tag to both the ‘Odisha Rasagola’ and the ‘Bangalar Rasagola’ for Odisha and West Bengal respectively. This time it is the turn of Odisha’s ‘Chenna Poda’ to seek a GI tag for this unique dish. Read all about it in City Lights. The unique cuisine of Odisha has always been something to relish and a young chef from Bhubaneswar recently made sure that it grabbed eyeballs across the nation. Participating in Master Chef India 2023, Avinash Patnaik left a lasting impression on judges and viewers alike, with his fusion of art and traditional flavors. We bring you more about him in this edition.

When was the last time you walked down a beach, or a street, or even your neighborhood park without coming across plastic wrappers and bags strewn around carelessly? And, what are the chances that you don’t remember? As we observe Earth Day on April 22, our Cover Story takes a deep dive into the seemingly disparate but inexorably intertwined aspects around the theme for this year, ‘Plastic vs Planet’. We also bring you the silver lining - while the alarm bells are ringing louder than ever, there are many whose passion is driving them to make a difference. As electioneering picks up for the Lok Sabha and Odisha Vidhan Sabha elections, there is one person whose presence will be deeply missed. 2024 will be the first time in many decades that veteran politician Dr Damodar Rout’s personality will not loom large on the state’s political scene. In CityZen, we explore the life and times of the veteran Biju Janata Dal (BJD) leader who passed away recently. We also bring you the inspirational journey of Amiyabala Parida and her transformation from a professor to a social activist. In a candid conversation, she opens up about how losing two of the closest members of her family to road accidents changed her outlook towards life in general and society in particular. Mention Teletubbies to anyone who grew up in the 90s and, more often than not, it will bring a smile to their face as fond memories come alive. No reference to the iconic British TV show can be complete without a mention of the Sun Baby whose character looms large over the Teletubbies universe. In a Q&A session, we catch up with Jessica Smith, who played the baby-faced sun, as she talks about how the show happened, her own baby, and the legacy of Teletubbies. In Screen Shots, we zoom in on two Odias who are aspiring to make a mark in Tollywood. Having been cast in a Telugu film boasting of some big names from the industry, Dr Devika Priyadarshini and Abhi Nag talk about how it feels to land a film starring superstar Anushka Shetty. The section also features emerging Odia actor Prasanjeet Mahapatra who has left a mark in the handful of films he has been a part of so far. The 30-year-old talks to us about the success of his latest film and the projects lined up in future.

Another year has come to an end, leaving behind a kaleidoscope of memories. For Odisha, 2023 was an eventful year when it came to governance, development, sports, and business. Our Cover Story for this edition brings you snapshots of the year’s significant policy decisions, major achievements in sports, landmarks from the corporate & business world, and important happenings in the Odia entertainment industry. Located in close proximity to buildings that seat the ‘who’s-who’ of Odisha’s power establishment, the Bhubaneswar Club has over the years evolved as an enduring symbol of socializing and celebration. With a history of 74 years, the club not only boasts of a rich legacy but also stands tall as a symbol of contemporary urban life. In City Tales, we walk you through all that the club stands for. Bhubaneswar was recently witness to a memorable congregation of vintage motor vehicles that reflected the glory, beauty, and craftsmanship of an era gone by. The inaugural Odisha Concours D’Elegance saw the participation of 50 eye-catching vintage cars from all over the country. Read all about this one-of-a-kind event in City Lights. A New Year brings with it new beginnings as well as new resolutions that are meant to set the tone for the next 12 months. City Lights brings to you a special feature tracing the origins of New Year resolutions and speaking to people from different walks of life to figure out the practice means to them. December 1, 2023 will be remembered for a film that not only created a storm at the box office but also sparked off an intense debate that shows no signs of dying down soon. ‘Animal’, the multi-lingual blockbuster, has received flak for normalizing misogyny and its controversial portrayal of gender dynamics. In Screen Shots, we talk to some prominent names from the Odia entertainment industry on the ongoing debate that has brought with it its own share of polarization and toxicity. Another issue that has become a matter of debate in recent days is that of paid menstrual leave for women. The issue has taken centre stage once again after Union Minister for Women and Child Development Smriti Irani expressed her opposition to the concept on the grounds that it could lead to discrimination against women in the workforce. In City Beat, we reach out to people for their views on the subject

Ask anyone who they look up to and give credit to for being the person that they have become, chances are that a teacher will be on their list along with parents, family members, and close friends. To mark Teacher’s Day, our Cover Story for this edition pays tribute to the role that teachers play in our lives. Anybody who was around in the 80s would remember the pulsating beats and the psychedelic lights that were synonymous with a new form of music that held the world in thrall. A special feature in City Tales revisits the birth of Disco music, its impact on the Bollywood film industry, and its eventual decline of sorts. With the growing realisation that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is here to stay, discussions these days often veer around to the influence this latest revolution in technology can have on different human endeavours. In City Tech, we take a look at some of the latest AI tools that can be used for a variety of functions. As it happens, advances in technology invariably come with their own unique challenges. Preventing cybercrime and identifying the perpetrators is one such challenge for law enforcement agencies these days and official data on the nature and number of such incidents presents a grim picture. Twin City police chief Soumendra Priyadarshi discusses the challenges in City Beat. The section also looks at diseases like dengue that make an appearance during the monsoon season. We speak with health and municipal officials to bring you a ground report. In Screen Shots, we catch up with the newest star on the block who is creating quite the buzz on the OTT circuit these days.

The cheers have faded and the fans have long returned home but the memories linger on, such was the scale of the sporting extravaganza that unfolded through January. With Odisha hosting back-to-back FIH Men's Hockey World Cups in 2018 and 2023, the state has firmly established itself on the sports map of the world. The 2023 Men's Hockey World Cup was not limited to the stadiums in Bhubaneswar and Rourkela where all the matches were played. The excitement and the celebrations spilled over onto the streets of cities and villages all over Odisha. Our Cover Story brings you a recap of all the action and excitement. Our City Zen for this edition is Sarthak Pradhan, who was awarded a gold medal during Utkal University's recent convocation ceremony. While he works in the private sector, he is also an author and columnist. He opens up about his journey so far. The recent outbreak of flu across the state sparked fears due to similarities with the symptoms of a Covid-19 infection. While the flu has become a common enough occurrence during the winters, this time, the fever lasted longer. We look for some explanations in the City Health section. This edition salutes women who have broken the glass ceiling and made a mark in a field which has traditionally been considered to be a stronghold of men. These are scientists who are excelling in research, innovation, and exploration. Read all about them in City Beat. The City Lights section brings you highlights from a five-day fashion and lifestyle extravaganza that was headlined by top names from the world of fashion, entertainment, and sports. Our City Biz section focuses on what is fast emerging as the latest obsession around the world. We are talking about Web 3.0, and its use of components of Metaverse technology like Blockchain and Non-fungible Tokens (NFTs). The past year can be considered a watershed year for Odia cinema. Several Ollywood films enjoyed theatrical success - a rarity in recent times - while a few offbeat films also managed to draw the audience to the theatres. In Screen Shots, we explore if this marks the beginning of a new era for Odia cinema.

As the world observes International Women’s Day on March 8, we zero in on a motley group of women who have emerged as beacons of hope for thousands of others, acting as a formidable force to catalyse some much-needed change. Through their efforts, they have inspired thousands of women around them. Our Cover Story for this edition looks at the work being done by these four women to further female empowerment at the grass-roots community level. India heads to the next general elections for the Lok Sabha soon and there is an unmissable air of anticipation about what has often been described as the biggest festival of democracy in the world. A recent Supreme Court judgement striking down the electoral bonds scheme has, however, turned the spotlight firmly on the issue of funding for political parties. In City Affairs, we take a close look at the scheme and what the Supreme Court verdict means. Amidst all the talk of what it takes to be fit and healthy, we often ignore the importance of getting a good night’s sleep. One only has to look at science to understand the benefits that this brings to a person. Our City Health section brings you a sharp insight into the role sleep plays in our mental as well as physical well- being. As the state tableau rolled down the Kartavya Path during this year’s Republic Day parade in New Delhi, the hearts of Odias across the world swelled with pride as it depicted Odisha’s rich heritage. It went on to win the first prize among tableaus from states and union territories. In CityZen, we feature Kirti Kumar Moharana, the man whose vision shaped this year’s tableau; he talks about what went on behind the scenes and the high points of this endeavour. This Women’s Day, get ready for a film that seeks to decipher the complex expectations from life through the experiences of three individuals navigating difficult, and different, circumstances. ‘Trikanya’ seeks to delve deep into the psyche of these three as they go about realising their unfulfilled dreams and aspirations. Read all about the film in Screen Shots. We also review ‘Mast Mein Rehne Ka’, a film that is as light-hearted as it is meaningful. City Flix brings you all the high points from this offbeat take on life that encapsulates a roller coaster of emotions.

My City Links Magazine: March 2023 by MCL Author Pdf

Over the past century or so, theatre has undergone a sea change, both in terms of its presentation and the manner in which it is consumed by the audience. The art form itself has evolved and transformed to be in sync with contemporary expectations. With March 27 set to be observed as World Theatre Day, our Cover Story chronicles the history and evolution of theatre in Odisha and comes up with some fascinating insights. Eco-friendly has become quite the buzzword over the past decade or so. Odisha has been doing its bit through the Eco Retreat initiative to promote sustainable tourism while showcasing the state’s rich cultural heritage and impressive natural beauty. Read all about it in City Lights. We also feature One M Crew, an acrobatic dance group from the slums of Mancheswar in Bhubaneswar that recently won a national competition. Their rise and rise is an inspiring story of grit and determination. Humans have evolved; so has technology, particularly when it comes to leveraging it for communication. ChatGPT is the latest example, having taken the Internet by storm. City Tech breaks down the phenomenon and explains what it is all about and what this development portends for the future. The Padma awards are India’s highest civilian honour. The past few years have seen a conscious attempt to make it a ‘People’s Padma’, with a clear emphasis on the work done by individuals at the grass-roots level. The list of 106 Padma awardees announced for 2023 includes four from Odisha. In CityZen, we salute the spirit and the accomplishments of these Padma Shri awardees. While Bhubaneswar has seen a lot of development in recent years, it has continued to grapple with one of urbanisation’s toughest challenges – cleanliness and waste management. Things are, however, set to change with the Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation deciding to take this challenge head-on. In City Beat, we take a look at how BMC is trying to make the state capital the cleanest city in India. The law and the legal institutions not only need to keep pace with the changing world, they also have to be accessible to all. This is particularly true when it comes to women, including those who find themselves on the wrong side of the digital divide in an era where information is essential for empowerment. A special feature in City Affairs digs deep into the subject of law and gender and tries to figure out the way ahead.

Rethinking the Work Ethic in Premodern Europe by Gábor Almási,Giorgio Lizzul Pdf

This book investigates how work ethics in Europe were conceptualised from the Middle Ages to the nineteenth century. Through analysis of a range of discourses, it focuses on the roles played by intellectuals in formulating, communicating, and contesting ideas about work and its ethical value. The book moves away from the idea of a singular Weberian work ethic as fundamental to modern notions of work and instead emphasises how different languages of work were harnessed for a variety of social, intellectual, religious, economic, political, and ideological objectives. Rather than a singular work ethic that left a decisive mark on the development of Western culture and economy, the volume stresses plurality. The essays draw on approaches from intellectual, social, and cultural history. They explore how, why, and in what contexts labour became an important and openly promoted value; who promoted or opposed hard work and for what reasons; and whether there was an early modern break with ancient and medieval discourses on work. These historicized visions of work ethics help enrich our understanding of present-day changing attitudes to work.

The Sexual Philanthropist by John Langley Pdf

Imagine. You are 8 years old and overhearing your mother remonstrate to your father that you are the "Unwanted, bastard child." How does that feel inside your head right now? Picture this scenario and how it would have affected your life from that moment forward. What would the outcome have been for you - suicide attempts, drugs, alcohol, and what would have been your coping mechanism? What would have numbed your pain through the years ahead? Would you be mentally stable, or even be alive right now to tell your story? One of the things you'll love about The Sexual Philanthropist is that it has only a little to do with sex, that little word that draws you in immediately, because this is a bigger, in fact much bigger story of a journey through homelessness, crime, the underworld and more. In many ways, you'll find out for yourself as you read how similar we are, albeit your background may be in no way comparable to mine. You and I are the same. You know, the less you invest in yourself the less you are worth to yourself. This is a fact I learned along the way, and this book will do the same for you. Picture it as an investment. Now, remember when I said I was the "Unwanted, bastard child?" Well, that wasn't quite the whole story. I was also told that apart from being "worthless" I would never do anything with my life because I was and always would be a "failure." Well, here begins the story of how failure became a success. Enjoy the read.
