Importance of copy paste

Every where copy paste is treated like a sin. In the journalism or writing profession it has been given a sinister name plagiarism. But come to think of it. How much of our actions have been original. Twenty years of school and college life we invest merely in learning outdated knowledge so we can replicate it. Along whole life we try to copy manners so we can replicate it in society. Most of the convictions and beliefs that we hold is not because we care for them or we believe them. But its because its being hold by someone we aspire. Copy paste is pervasive you cannot avoid it. Computer has only given formal meaning to it. But you surely don,t see people who are copies of each other. It's because there is an art of copying. If you copy from one source then only people are capable of realizing that you are copying. If you copy from multiple sources then it is a novelty. If you copy paste from multiple sources then it is simply impossible for brain to discern then you are copy p...

5 year integrated programme of managment of IIM Indore

There is buzz going around the place about IIM Indore 5 year integrated management program. It is the first time that a IIM is opening its doors to undergraduate. The program will start from this year with initial intake of 120 students. It will be split into two parts. Graduation will be 3 year course where fees for every year will be Rs 3 lakh. Post Graduation will be of 2 years with fees of Rs 5 lakh every year. Besides the tution fees the lodging expense for the whole program will be Rs 4 lakh. So the total cost of the program will be Rs 23 lakhs. But the question that arises is whether this programme is not for rich people. There was a time when average salary of IIM graduate was 10 to 15 more than his cost of education. True education should not be measured by rerurn on investment. But at the end of my pgp i am thinking that what education MBA is about. You get some knowledge about business and some good friend.  And from IIM Indore you will get a IIM brand but that is surel...

Maria Susairaj

In of the most shocking judgements in recent past, Bombay court found Maria Susairaj guilty of chopping his lover into 300 pieces only to set him free. She was convicted only of charge of destroying evidence for which maximum permissible sentence is 3 years. I wonder how assisting a murderer and chopping a person into 300 pieces can be simply classified as destruction of evidence. But what is equally shocking is the zeal of film makers and realty show owners to cast Maria. I will surely vomit if i see her on any reality show. But public memory is weak, and people of similar charge have appeared on reality shows, so i think that she is well qualified to appear on reality show.

El Dorado

We have been reading and watching fantasy stories of treasure event since childhood. But fantasy stories come true. I have always thought life can be more cruel than in the fiction or movies. But sometimes it can be more fantastic also. As it happened in temple of Thiruvananthapuram’s iconic Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple. The value of the treasure found could be around Rs 1 lakh crores. Wonder what will be done with so much money Source: http://www.business-standard.com/india/news/sc-ordered-treasure-hunt-puts-fairy-tales-in-shade/441265/
