Miss K started her career in 1998 as a receptionist in AT&T Bell Labs, which had its offices next to Texas Instruments on Wind Tunnel Road in Bangalore. She was good-looking, well-dressed, friendly and spoke good English. She won many admirers in a mostly male-dominated technology company.

There was just one person in her office who seemed to remain immune to her charm. That person happened to be one of the men discussing her exploits on the train (we’ll simply call him Mr A for the remainder of this story).

Mr A had become suspicious of Miss K early on in their interactions. Miss K would consistently compliment Mr A on his intelligence, wit and good looks, even though Mr A was sure he had none of those traits.

Mr A then became actively hostile towards Miss K, even though he was forced to maintain the outward courtesy required of him in a professional set-up. Maintaining the decorum required, he didn’t mention his suspicions about Miss K to anyone else in the company.

In one year, the number of employees in the company grew to over 100 and Miss K became even more popular. She nevertheless had to leave soon, as her contract was about...

Amnesty International on Monday asked the Bangladesh authorities to end its crackdown on the right to free expression online and urgently repeal the draconian Digital Security Act, unless it can be amended in compliance with international human rights law and standards.

In its new briefing titled “No space for dissent”, the global rights body examines cases under the country’s Digital Security Act, a law that contains overly broad and vague provisions granting the authorities extensive powers to police the online space.

The cases it scrutinises involve 10 individuals who have been subjected to a wide range of human rights violations, including enforced disappearances, arbitrary detentions and torture, simply for criticising powerful people on social media.

Bangladesh has at least 433 people imprisoned under the Digital Security Act as of July, most of whom are held on allegations of publishing false and offensive information online.

Allegations of torture

Those targeted include journalists, cartoonists, musicians, activists, entrepreneurs, students and even a farmer who cannot read or write, among others. In one case, writer Mushtaq Ahmed died in prison after languishing there for 10 months without trial on accusations under the Act. One detained person alleged that he was subjected to torture.

“The actions taken by the authorities under the purview of the DSA demonstrate just how dangerous it...

Judicial independence is a necessary condition for democracy since it acts as a check to authoritarian power. However, a hallmark of the Narendra Modi years has been the inability of the courts to review even egregious acts of the Union government, such as Kashmir’s long communications blockade.

Now alarming new revelations show that the situation could be much worse than suspected.

Since July 18, hundreds of names from a leaked database of phone numbers have been published by a consortium of journalists across the world. The names reflect potential targets of illegal cyber surveillance using Pegasus, an Israel-made spying software so uniquely powerful that some experts have called it a “weapon”.

Alarmingly for India, this contains names related to the Supreme Court. The Wire reported that “among the numbers in the Pegasus Project database is one that was registered in the name of a sitting Supreme Court judge”.

While The Wire decided to withhold the name of the judge, given that it was unable to confirm with them if they were using the number at the time, the fact that weapons-grade spyware was used in this case is a troubling development that requires urgent attention.

Equally troubling was the fact that a Supreme Court staffer and her family were selected as potential targets days after...

Mirabai Chanu has made India proud with the aid of profitable the silver medal at the Tokyo Olympics and it might not be long before a biopic is announced on the life of the young Manipuri weightlifter who proved her mettle in the women's forty nine kg class at the games.

It goes devoid of asserting that a film on Mirabai's journey will make an interesting watch, despite the fact, enthusiasts have made it clear that they are looking to see an actress from the Northeast portraying the role of the promising athlete.

As per the poll performed through ZEE news on Twitter, 46.5% of americans want an actress from the Northeast to play the position of Mirabai Chanu if a biopic is made on her. additionally, 31.7% of people want that the actress should still belong from Manipur, while 15.eight% of the people need the actress to be a newcomer. peculiarly, simplest 5.9% of lovers desire a longtime actress to play the position of the Olympic silver medallist.

Wanna see something basically horrifying? according to Hollywood, it's a woman growing older. That's some of the unspoken topics of M. evening Shyamalan's new summer time thriller, whose ads function a pair of female legs enjoyable on the seashore. One leg is young and comely; the other withered and skeletal. The title succinctly names the horror unfolding: "historic."

We get the image.

a woman getting older, principally a stunning one, remains regarded uncanny and unnatural. This source of horror should be gone its expiration date, but continues to hang-out Hollywood because it reflects our society's misogyny and concern of mature female vigor.

In Shyamalan's movie, company to a tropical island resort are invited to get pleasure from a secluded beach, where whatever mysterious makes individuals rapidly age: each half an hour, they grow three hundred and sixty five days older. The alteration (spoilers to follow) becomes obvious first within the youngsters, but quickly the adults start to believe and appear older, too. The guys acquire wrinkles and grey hair, but their essence isn't basically modified. They simply look like mature, even more exotic versions of themselves.

but for the females, accelerated growing old is denaturing. they're subjected to terrifying actual alterations, from a melon-sized tumor to warp-pace pregnancy to a fatal heart assault. The worst is saved for Chrystal (Abbey Lee), the young mother who appears like a swimsuit mannequin.

For the women, accelerated aging is denaturing. they are subjected to terrifying actual adjustments.

We first meet Chrystal imperiously ordering a fitness beverage, without doubt obsessed with protecting her scantily-clad bod in suitable kind. When she ignores her husband on the beach to take selfies, the message is apparent: things will no longer go smartly for her.

Chrystal is the "conceitedness, thy identify is woman" personality, and whatever thing occurs, it's not going to be fairly. How do we comprehend? because videos have long been the location the place male filmmakers get to benefit from the delusion of torturing the hot girls who rejected them in excessive college. (For greater on how utterly male Hollywood continues to be, even within the wake of #MeToo, see "This changes every little thing," a fresh documentary that actor Geena Davis executive produced.)

stunning blondes don't do neatly in "ancient." the primary one who seems is stripping nude for a swim and saucily fluffing her hair. Her subsequent scene indicates her as a waterlogged corpse.

Chrystal's destiny is more protracted and ugly. Her painful dying is the film's visible piece-de-resistance. Her delectable physique's repulsive transformation echoes a pivotal second in H. Rider Haggard's famous Victorian event novel, "She." Filmed dissimilar instances, most famously starring Ursula Andress in 1965, the story considerations a stunning 2,000-yr-historical queen who retains no longer most effective her appears, but power over guys so amazing she is nicknamed "She-who-need to-be-obeyed." That's a large no-no. Her punishment is insta-ageing in a pillar of fireplace, shriveling down to pathetic monkey-like creature.

For Shyamalan's Chrystal, struggling through the deaths of her daughter and mother-in-law, plus the psychotic breakdown her husband, isn't enough retribution for the sin of attempting to soothe the male gaze. She should be damaged — in this case, actually. pride in her attractiveness is laid waste.

Tellingly, Shyamalan makes lots of woke-ish references to racism in his film, however misogyny goes unnoticed. It flows as naturally because the tide.

The filmmaker is tapping into a whole cinematic tradition called "hagsploitation" that centers on fascinating female characters who refuse to accept getting old.

The filmmaker is tapping into a whole cinematic culture referred to as "hagsploitation" that facilities on attractive feminine characters who refuse to accept getting old and are searching for to cling the highlight. Some classic examples consist of "sunset Boulevard" (1950), "anything happened to baby Jane?" (1962) and "dying turns into Her" (1992). In Hollywood's brutal good judgment, ladies are dispensed a short length of desirability and then inspired to vanish, a convention satirized in Amy Schumer's useless-on sketch "ultimate F**kable Day," featuring Tina Fey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Patricia Arquette as mid-lifestyles actors celebrating their freedom from patriarchal calls for of splendor.

it is a common thought that age confers vigor and delivered dignity on men. The silver reveal can be hospitable to the silver fox — but mature girls who refuse to fade away are monsters: evil witches, demonic nuns, horrible bosses, and grannies-gone-mad, all bent on sucking vitality from the young and usually wreaking havoc.

Hollywood's accelerated getting older trope highlights no longer best the fleetingness of socially prescribed hotness, but the reception that awaits girls on the other aspect. fanatics of "The Shining" (1980) will keep in mind the terror Jack Nicholson experiences within the fail to notice resort when the young elegance he caresses transforms right into a decrepit crone.

rapid getting older is additionally the most appropriate torture gadget for feminine characters deemed unacceptable. In "bad women from Valley high" (2005), a trio of beautiful high faculty mean ladies receive justice in the type of swift getting old that has them sagging, farting and peeing themselves. The film's original title, "A fate completely Worse than death," says it all.

In Hollywood, as in lifestyles, society ensnares girls in a trap-22 where they're anticipated now not best to continue to be preternaturally young and attractive, however punished for making an attempt to fulfill those expectations. At eighty one, actor Kim Novak found this out when she dared to seem on the 2014 Oscars ceremony with a surgically-altered face a ways diverse from the flawless fable in films like Alfred Hitchcock's "Vertigo."

The maddening irony of the outrage over her failure to "age gracefully" is that, early in her career, male film moguls had pressured Novak to significantly alter her look so she would healthy the mold of the quintessential cool blonde. As an older lady, she become vilified for following this common sense to the conclusion.

Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn were just forty three and 47, respectively, when they played growing older beauties gone mad in "death becomes Her."

horrifying videos are supposed to conjure up what's threatening whereas retaining it at a secure distance. but for ladies, the horror of getting old hits peculiarly close to domestic. in the social media period, there's infrequently a woman over 30 who hasn't experienced the creeping dread of seeing an image of her face that doesn't look quite correct — "reasonably right" that means acting to be roughly age 27.

As women strategy menopause — a time when adventure, wisdom and freedom from being pregnant ought by rights to propel them into their most productive stage of lifestyles — they begin to panic that they are being deleted. Gloria Swanson was only 50 when she portrayed the hag Norma Desmond in "sunset Boulevard," and Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn had been simply 43 and forty seven, respectively, after they played growing older beauties long gone mad in "dying becomes Her." in accordance with the upside-down guidelines of patriarchy, women should be annihilated early on because older ladies pose a danger: they are unruly and poised to function beyond the bounds of male power.

here is a dropping video game no longer simplest for girls, but for society, which desperately needs their mature powers. This element turned into made in a rare movie to depict older adult females positively: "Mad Max: Fury street (2015). ladies are the savior of civilization in that George Miller movie, which now not handiest starred Charlize Theron as fearless hero Imperator Furiosa however featured a motorbike-using band of fierce older ladies who guard the seeds that may re-green a submit-apocalyptic world.

Let's hope it doesn't take a real dystopian future to carry this factor domestic.

For now, it appears, movie-goers will continue to flock to observe women punished for growing older, converted from titillating to terrifying. And right here's a plot twist for you: they'll definitely be replicating the horror of the movie as a result of a study suggests that staring at horrifying movies can definitely accelerate facial growing older. grab the popcorn and luxuriate in!

Long before the current political divide over climate change, and even before the United States Civil War (1861-1865), an American scientist named Eunice Foote documented the underlying cause of today’s climate change crisis.

The year was 1856. Foote’s brief scientific paper was the first to describe the extraordinary power of carbon dioxide gas to absorb heat – the driving force of global warming.

Carbon dioxide is an odourless, tasteless, transparent gas that forms when people burn fuels, including coal, oil, gasoline and wood.

As Earth’s surface heats, one might think that the heat would just radiate back into space. But, it is not that simple. The atmosphere stays hotter than expected mainly due to greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and atmospheric water vapour, which all absorb outgoing heat.

They are called “greenhouse gases” because, not unlike the glass of a greenhouse, they trap heat in Earth’s atmosphere and radiate it back to the planet’s surface. The idea that the atmosphere trapped heat was known, but not the cause.

Foote conducted a simple experiment. She put a thermometer in each of two glass cylinders, pumped carbon dioxide gas into one and air into the other and set the cylinders in the Sun. The cylinder containing carbon dioxide got much hotter than the one...
