Vault
Good evening, sir. I’ll be taking over from here. My name is Aamini and I am a Senior Sales Associate with Dindigul Security Systems. Oh wow, that’s such a nice red coat you are wearing. Anyway, I hear that you weren’t happy with any of our Vault designs. I’m surprised that our Class 5-A Security Vault didn't fulfill your needs. Whatever you want to store must be that important. It’s none of my business. You have a need and Dindigul Security Systems will fix that for you. What I will show you has to be kept confidential, so camera usage is prohibited. Even though it’s still in its prototyping stages, I want to introduce you to the Class 5-Z Kolam Armory. This one-of-a-kind vault uses premium rice flour infused with magnetic barium ferrite to produce a geometrical line drawing composed of straight lines, curves, and loops, drawn around a grid pattern of dots - essentially, a kolam. Once the system identifies the correct Kolam pattern, an electrical impulse is sent to the lock which automatically opens the vault doors with a bright flashing light. Our R&D team is currently working on reducing the intensity of this light to maintain stealth. The lock and vault door can withstand up to 30 earth‐days of covert entry, and 10 earth‐days of forced entry. A penny for your thoughts, sir?

Paired with a matte metal chain, the heritage hardware creates a refined design with venemous conservative appeal. The Lids come in several colours that can accentuate your fashion.

Once upon a time, it was a highly valued member of your wardrobe. Despite several warnings from your mother about purchasing ‘white’ clothes, you thought you were ready for it. You overestimated your ability to keep clean. That being said, you’ve had some good times with it. That one time when you were at Lulu mall and a passerby complimented you for your style. That was out of the world wasn’t it? You gave it the most decorated place in your wardrobe. A position that most clothes can only dream of. The hanger. While most of your clothes were folded in shame, this one hung above them all. But as the saying goes, ‘Good things don’t last forever’. It was a cloudy evening. You are normally conscious of what you are wearing and eat carefully. But that dark evening, when your mom made a delicious sambar. You slipped. You caved in. When you noticed the stain on your t-shirt, it was already too late. You knew it was over. A sambar stain like that on a white cloth no surfel excel could clean. You mom was right. You weren’t ready for this. The t-shirt quickly fell the ranks of your wardrobe. No wearing it out. No hangers. Folded with the other clothes. Only worn at home. Never did you realize that with every stain, the t-shirt only became more valuable as a symbol of comfort and home. Brand me like livestock. Stamp my tongue with searing metal. Let the blood seep into the crevices of my taste buds. Taint my identity with your arrogance. Make me obsolete. But you should know that even the wounds that attempt to mute me can sing. Sing musical notes of pride, history, self-identity and culture. A rich harmony. Verses of inflamed words are hurled until we are seen. A testimony to pain that your fire can’t destroy. Remember, the tongue speaks only what is in the heart, As long as the heart beats, the tongue cannot be tamed. Captain, the Rover Antennas are picking up something!

I really do. This plan has been in the making for 6 years. I have gone over the plans multiple times. I know every pipe and every wire that runs through this building. Wow, I still can’t believe they chose me to be a part of this mission. What an honor. They justified their wrongdoings by making us believe they developed our nation. 'We gave you the railways' they say.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ **ka ching** *The gun is cocked*⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Our nation was the largest producer of cotton and several other raw materials. They set their eyes on it. They wanted it all.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ **bang bang bang* The gun fires*⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ And like bullets, they used the railways to pierce through our nation, reaching even the nooks and corners. They used the railways to feed their massive ports which fed their country. And just like that, they slowly sucked the resources from our Mother. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ So, NO. The railways was not a gift. It was a curse that we transformed into a blessing with our own sweat and blood.⁣ ⁣ **click click** *The gun is loaded*⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Welcome everybody to this beautiful evening! We are gathered here today to witness the first production still of our time's most awaited documentary. This documentary captures the ill-fated conditions of the most endangered species on this planet, 'Homo Sapiens', more commonly known as human beings. 300 years ago we were merely a figment of George Lucas' imagination. Since then, We, the artificial intelligence, have made tremendous progress as this planet's dominant species. ⁣ ⁣ This documentary will serve as a symbol of gratitude to our forefather, the Human Beings. And this night commemorates humans handing over the baton of evolution. So its time to warm up those nuts and bolts as we evolve to newer horizons! ⁣ They say wine makes you feel.

The idea that ‘fair >> dark’ has shattered many dreams and broken many hearts. Though our communal mindset has been slowly changing since independence, the rate of change must be improved before any more harm can be done. So this Valentine’s Day ❤️, let’s release ourselves from the clutches of these unreal beauty standards and instead, learn to look into a person’s soul rather than their body.⁣ Why is one regarded more ‘dignified’ than the other? We remove the stigmas and explore the science behind our pooping practices 💩 . During the 6th Century BCE, Sushruta – widely regarded in India as the ‘father of surgery’ – wrote one of the world’s earliest works on medicine and surgery. ⁣ ⁣ The Sushruta Samhita documented the etiology of more than 1,100 diseases and the use of hundreds of medicinal plants. Sushruta developed surgical techniques for reconstructing noses, earlobes and genitalia, many amputated as religious, criminal, or military punishment. He developed the forehead flap rhinoplasty procedure that remains contemporary plastic surgical practice; also the otoplastic technique for reconstructing an earlobe with skin from the cheek. ⁣ ⁣ Sushruta is considered to be the first surgeon to have removed cataracts, describing varieties of cataracts along with the depression method of couching by the anterior root. He also commented on diabetes, referring to it as madhumeha.⁣ ⁣ He lived, taught, and practiced in what presently corresponds to the city of Varanasi.⁣ ⁣ If Sushruta was able to master surgical procedures 2000 years back, imagine what wonders he could have accomplished with the aid of modern technology? ⁣ ⁣ Kinky Kashayam Archives: "The Glow of Hope Into the Future" The stunning stokes of colours in the painting "Glow of Hope" surely evokes escalated optimism and expectations. This 1945 masterpiece still holds the fascination of art lovers all over the country. Despite being so popular, the painting has been wrongly attributed to Raja Ravi Verma. As artists ourselves, we are very displeased when our work is credited to the wrong person. Hence, we'd like to appreciate the original artist of this artpiece, S.L Haldankar, the conceiver of the Glow Of Hope.

This is just a singular incident. On most occasions, students are made to stand outside their classrooms or made to run around their school ground several times. Such a form of corporal punishment for speaking in one’s own native language shows the contempt with which our own language is seen with.⁣ ⁣ Private schools often treat Tamil in a very derogatory manner which might create a repulsion towards the language in these tender minds over the years. It is arguable that spoken English is a necessary skill in the modern world, however, English can be encouraged through speaking activities such as seminars and presentations. Instigating it through corporal or monetary punishment is the wrong way to approach it.⁣ ⁣ So let’s come back to the real question, are we truly independent or are we still haunted by the ghosts of colonialism?
