Harinath Paul (Hari) and Sam Krishna Roy (Sam) are two friends who joined Indian Railways at Kharagpur as a 5-years apprentice mechanical in January 1964.They became very closed and best friend each other. During this training period, Hari loved Maria (Anjali) an anglo-Indian girl whose father was Goerge Gomes, General Foreman of boiler shop in Kharagpur railway workshops,an original Britisher and mother(Agatha) an Indian Hindu Bengali woman.Agatha was residing in his outhouse as a full time domestic help before her marriage with George. After a long ups and down Hari and Anjali became a married couple where Sam played a leading role (both negetive and positive).
Sam became alone after demise of her wife at the age of about 40. Within a few years of his loneliness a terrorist couple took shelter in Sam's house as a tenant showing him the fake Government identity proof of Indian citizenship. Later both were arrested by the Kashmiri police with the help of Calcutta police. Actually, the young man, Md. Ibrahim introduced himself as Mohan Kumar (26-27) who was a Pakistani terrorist and married a Hindu Bengali girl introduced as Bina Kumar(23-24). They found no other alternate but to leave their only child of six months old under custody of Sam, the land lord who brought up her as his grand-daughter. Later she became a most efficient police offcer of Indian Police Service who also became terror to the terrorists of Jammu and Kashmir. She was awarded by Prsident of India for her gallantary service. But she was not happy and her eyes were searching her father and mother amongst the terrorist, live or dead in jail or out side the jail. Ultimately she found both her parents, but she accepted only her mother and left Jammu nd Kashmir on transfer with her grandpa and mother to Calcutta.How she got her parents was a story of thrill and wonderful with tears of emotion.
Anjali's history teacher of her school at Kharagpur railway township, Moinuddin proposed to marry her when she was in class twelve(10+2) as his second wife though he was having a wife live with a daughter. This could not materialise through a series of drama and climax. She became fade up with the jobs in various British and Indian private companies where she had to serve as confidential assistant to Managing Director or Director. Everything was good, but that was with sexual abuses in different forms. Otherwise there was no chance to continue the job. Finally she left the job and joined as a lecturer in a reputed college and started to stay at Calcutta 116 km away from her house at Kharagpur. Being a christian girl, she found easily accomodation in Young Women Christian Association(YWCA) in Calcutta where she came in contact with social service, particularly for the destitutes and older women who were left by their British husbands after British rules ended in 15th August 1947 in India.
Hasina, wife of Moinuddin started a school in their quarter at Kharagpur for the poor girls and illiterate women, particularly of Muslim community overcoming a huge obstacles posed by the Maulovis and Immams. Hasina initially, did not get support from her husband Moinuddin due to the life threatening from those Maulovis and Imamas. Fortunately, a Muslim police officer of Kharagpur police station helped Hasina in all respects to open her primary school. She believed that due to illiteracy and poverty, women of Muslim community become the prey of the patriarchal torture and deprivation socially and economically by them if those women do not obey the fatawah of Imam or Maulovi.
During the Indo-Pak war in 1965, a few maulovis were arrested and punished for the anti-Indian activities. These people were also against Hasina and they once kidnapped and assaulted physically her and her daughter when her husband Moinuddin went to his native village for her younger sister's marriage for a few days. There he found another set-back from his elder sister who was forcibly given Talak(divorce) by her husband on flimsy ground and came back with her two kids. Moinuddin then realised the bad result of poligamy which he himself once wanted to marry Anjai as second wife. He condemned this system of poligamy in Muslim community.
Hasina took initiative to make a non-violent movement with the help of Anjali, Hari and Sam and organised in a district, state and countrwide non-violent movement against all fundamentalists and orthodox Muslims who were doing all anti-Islamic activities, particularly torture on women of Muslim community. Later this fundamentalists and orthodox Muslims were known as Taliban, LeT and other terrorists groups indulging in killing innocent people in the name of Islam.
Hsina and her associates established All India Depressed and Deprived Women Organisation(AIDDWO) and Bilkis, an opressed and tortured Muslim woman became President of AIDDWO. Non-violent movement was spreding like fire throughout world, particularly terror-stricken countries like USA, India, UK, Afghanistan, Pakistan and others.
Military offensive started by Pakistan government against terrorists in Pakistan with the cvilian's support like APDDWO(All Pakistan Dipressed and Deprived Women Organisation), a sistern organisation of AIDDWO. This contued upto 2013 when terrorists were defeated and they surrendered under the two tongue operation by military offensive and civil non-violent movement enmass through out the terror stricken countries including USA, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, UK and others. Huge terrorists were killed with lesser number of army. Terrorists groups had to accept the Treaty of Peace forever. Thus Peace was regained in the world. [mehr]

Crittenden as he appears at the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C.
John Jordan Crittenden (September 10, 1787 – July 26, 1863) was a politician from the U.S. state of Kentucky. He represented the state in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate and twice served as United States Attorney General in the administrations of William Henry Harrison, John Tyler and Millard Fillmore. He was also the 17th governor of Kentucky and served in the state legislature. Although frequently mentioned as a potential candidate for the U.S. presidency, he never consented to run for the office.
During his early political career, Crittenden served in the Kentucky House of Representatives and was chosen as speaker on several occasions. With the advent of the Second Party System, he allied with the National Republican (later Whig) Party and was a fervent supporter of Henry Clay and opponent of Democrats Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren.

Early life
Henry R.H. Hall was the son of Sir Sydney Hall, MVO, MA, a portrait painter and illustrator for The Graphic newspaper, and his wife Hannah Holland. He went to Merchant Taylors' School, London and showed an interest in history and ancient Egypt from an early age. By the age of 11 he wrote a history of Persia, and by 16 he had gained some knowledge of the ancient Egyptian language.[1]
Hall studied classics at St John's College, Oxford, as well as Egyptian history and language under the tutelage of Egyptologist Francis Llewellyn Griffith, gaining a BA in 1895, his MA in 1897 and later his D.Litt in 1920.[1]
Career
In 1896 he started work at the British Museum as an assistant to E. A. Wallis Budge, becoming Assistant Keeper, Department of Egyptian and Assyrian Antiquities in 1919. On Budge's retirement in 1924, Hall became Keeper of the Department of Egyptian and Assyrian Antiquities, a post he held until his death in 1930.[1]
He worked with Édouard Naville and Edward R. Ayrton in the excavations at Deir el-Bahri, Egypt, from 1903–07, and also dug at Abydos with the Egypt Exploration Society expeditions of 1910 and 1925.[1]
During the First World War he was attached to the military section of the press bureau, and in 1916 moved into Intelligence and was later attached to the Political Service in Mesopotamia with the rank of captain. He was twice mentioned in dispatches, and was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire.[1]
Combining in an unusual manner a knowledge of Egyptology and Assyriology in almost equal degrees, he was indefatigable in the service of the joint departments in the British Museum. While in his later years he had not the opportunity to take part in excavating expeditions sent out by the Museum, he was of great assistance in organising the expeditions of Dr. Campbell Thompson at Nineveh and Mr. Guy Brunton in Upper Egypt. He was, despite an initial and boyish brusqueness of manner, a charming colleague and tactful in the division of the spoils of excavation when these had been acquired jointly with other bodies.

One of His Pupils:Professor A. K. John, alias al-Dayrani is the best known and most distinguished among the pupils of Scholar Sheikho. He received a certificate of General Education (a Syrian certificate which included the study of nine different sciences). Prof. al-Dayrani collected and verified more than fifty books which were dictated by Scholar Sheikho and written on his behalf. Therefore his name is always mentioned in association with the name of Mohammad Amin Sheikho.
A Glimpse of his distinguished thoughts and views: He disclosed the true meaning of the letters (acronyms) that are reported at the beginning of the Fortresses of the Holy Qur’an, which was not understood by previous Muslim scholars and said that, “Al’lah knows best His Purpose behind them.” He disproved the stories which are ascribed wrongly to the noble Envoy Mohammad (cpth), such as the story of his being affected by the action of magic, the story of cutting his noble chest (cpth), and all that would put him (cpth) in the wrong. He elucidated that the noble Prophets are impeccable in all of their words, actions and deeds.
He was the first in the world to reveal the source of fresh spring and river water, which is the ice of the North and South Poles.
He gave an exact definition of the ‘human spirit’ and clarified the difference between that and the ‘soul’.
He differentiated between the ‘mind’ and ‘thought’
He talked about al-Azal world, the very beginning of creation in the world of immaterial spirits, and demonstrated the Godly Justice in that world and the reason for the coming of mankind to this world.
He elucidated the wisdom in turning towards al-ka’ba when communicating with God (praying); he explained the reason for fasting and the meaning of the Night of al-Qadr (Evaluation) and how to attain it.
He interpreted from the noble Qur’an how to derive the proportion of Zakat (almsgiving). [mehr]

The Fat Decimator System is a brand-new weight loss program that cleanses the body and sheds unwanted fat quickly and safely. It allows almost anyone to lose 21 lbs in just 21 days – or more than a pound a day!
Based on more than a decade of research spanning over 500 medical studies as well as almost three years of real-world testing, this program has the results – and the science – to back it up.
Kyle Cooper, creator of The Fat Decimator System, is a former marine and a certified trainer who has been training soldiers in the military and civilians to get in their best shape possible for the past 10 years.
This program is based on a chance meeting with a Korean medical student while serving in Afghanistan. This man introduced Gunny Cooper to a whole new way of looking at weight loss and health and it’s revolutionized the way that he trains his clients and how he’s been able to help tens of thousands of people regain the bodies they’ve desperately missed.
This system peels back the veil on weight loss by dispelling the myths and showing you the science behind how the body works and how to work in harmony with your body’s natural fat burning abilities to rapidly, safely and permanently shed unsightly and unhealthy pounds.
This comprehensive book is broken down into three different sections:
Diet: This portion of The Fat Decimator System outlines the importance of detoxifying the body before weight loss efforts, why toxins can hold your metabolism back, and the overall benefits of a cleansed system for both the body and mind. What’s more, it outlines in detail which energy-rich foods previously considered ‘bad for you’ can help your burn fat faster than ever before.
Exercise: The exercise section is designed to complement the diet portion of The Fat Decimator System. It consists of a variety of supercharged exercises that will help melt body fat even faster. Coupled with the metabolism-boosting diet, these quick and effective routines have the potential to almost double the weight loss results.
Willpower, Motivation, and Mindset: This third section delves into some of the most common myths about willpower and how truly understanding the underlying realities of motivation can revolutionize your weight loss – and your life. It’s a vital part of this program and, for many, has helped them lose weight fast and keep it off for good.
These three elements combined create one of the most comprehensive and easy-to-use fat loss programs to date. People all over the world are already using it to lose weight quickly and easily while living a healthier and happier life along the way. [mehr]

Diplomacy and International Business

International business and globalization requires governments to operate in a context different than before, which is to integrate other participants of diplomacy in its own decision-making processes. Governments have been focusing on new strategies, such as involving ministries and non-state actors and institutions, providing greater transparency, and acting collectively. Facing the challenges of an increasingly complex world Diplomats are not the only actors involved in the diplomatic process because due to globalization, many actors such as NGOs, international organizations and individuals can be seen practicing diplomacy. Diplomacy is a course of actions, based on the exchange of ideas, values and traditions to reinforce the business relationships, improve the social cooperation and stimulate the national interests, with respects to globalization.
Diplomacy, due to globalization the mass communication technology help access between people to promote peace & stability all over the world because it influences the opinion globally of businesses, trade, individuals, communities, cultures and countries (Kamsaris, 2020). The tactics to form international relations can be described either hard or soft power and according to Nye soft power is the ability to persuade and get what you want through culture, values and ideas through attraction rather than coercion or payments, while hard power involves activating forces. Through soft power, the use of cultural diplomacy becomes significant (Kamsaris, 2020).
Regarding the international business world, the will and ability to appreciate and embrace the diverse values and needs of dissimilar cultures is important for the strategic decisions and adopt diplomacy models tactics by increasing social awareness of international companies engaged in the development of culturally sensitive marketing plans and campaigns in order to build positive public opinion, form a good image, free of local problems, conduct research regarding the cultural differences of the new country and international companies with local focus (Kamsaris, 2020).
Bound states that the internet has created a world where cultures meet and mix and reform easily and constantly and countries are increasingly finding that they need to reaffirm their sovereignty to stop their cultures being swamped or changed by access to other cultural outputs. As Mark says, a state’s international cultural mission now involves a more active role in protecting and developing country culture. A country’s cultural identity needs to be strong and constantly reinforced and revitalised, or it will be flooded and lost. A culture is the set of values which underpins a country and the way that other countries use to understand you. Culture for Ribeiro is a non-threatening, inclusive way of communicating with people. It is powerful because it is universal and is shared as it is a manifestation of human genius and achievement and is charged with symbolic meaning.
International relations referred to the study of foreign affairs and political interaction between countries and cover the complex of cultural, economic, legal, military, and political relations of all countries and their populations, actors and international organizations. The goal of this book is to introduce some of the main issues of international politics, such as war and peace, development, regional integration and security, and to familiarize with different ways to conceptualise and analyse these issues. This should allow to make a more confident decision about your own attitude towards particular issues and to analyse these issues more thoroughly, but it should also make you question both your own as well as others’ representations of the world.
