Drakula,'The Vampire' There are so many characters in our lives that our curiosity doesn't end there. Most of the characters don't match reality but they have a special place in our minds. One such character is Bram Stoker's bone-chilling 'Dracula' which is a fear in our minds. He awakens a shiver. To all the readers, he is a very bloodthirsty person who drinks blood with his sharp teeth whenever he gets a chance. So far we all know more or less, and we also know that the character is entirely fictionalized by the author.But very few of us know that Dracula was a fictional character, but coincidentally there was a real man by this name whose real name was Vlad the Impeller, whose other name was Dracula. Let's take a brief look at him.  In fact, he belong to the members of the Order of Dragons for generations, and probably got the name Dracula from there.However, history has shown that this prince, the third Vlad, was very cruel, and loved to crucify his ...

Casu Martzu ,'A dreadfull Cheese' We all know and believe that there is no end to the diversity of this world and the people living in it. Whether it is the natural diversity of different parts of the world or the diversity of human food makes us curious enough to say each community has its own food habit that may be strange to others. Even we get to know a lot of such food which is never justifiable or healthy in general but its demand is quite enviable somewhere. Let us know the identity of such a food today. Yes ,its the real picture of a cheese or better called cheese filled with insect that is our topic today and its a  favorite among the people of sardinia  ,Italy. This cheese is made primarily from sheep's milk, but it is not usually made in the process of fermentation , but this pecarino cheese is made in the process of decaying, so it is left open so that a fly called the "cheese fly" can sit over it and help in decaying. It is often believed that if you ...

Political Manifesto It would not be wrong to say that all of us in West Bengal are focusing on one thing now. Yes, I am talking about the upcoming assembly elections in our state. The tagline of this election is again 'Play and Win'. Many may think that under the democratic structure it is better if the game is a little fair and clean. Let's try to get a little deeper into the matter. In any competition, the other party wins by defeating the opponent. But in that, everyone has to abide by the rules of the competition. But in our Bengali political context, we do not see any party abiding by this trend. What we all see is a list of lies in the name of the opposition, as if they have successfully fulfilled all the promises they made before the election, so they can give time to catch the faults and mistakes of the opposition. Our polite question to the political leaders is that if you all have done lots of jobs for the common people, then why is there so much poverty in our st...

Palwankar Balu,the spin founder Today we all know that cricket is the most popular sport in our country. We can easily guess the level of passion and support of Indians in this game. In this country, some cricketers have also been born who, despite showing enough skills in their time, did not get the respect they deserved, but received  only  humiliation and mental anguish. Palayankar Balu was one of the few Indian cricketers to receive such discriminatory treatment from co-players just for being of the lower caste class determined by the upper class.  In India, Jr. Gregg, a famous English cricketer of that time, was the first to find his talent. He used to get bold many times by the spin bowling of Balu but he couldn't solve the secret even after trying a lot.  Palayankar Balu was only 16 years old then and incidentally the bowling of that teenager took him by surprise. However, the popularity of Palayankar Balu continued to grow. Many provincial cricket team of tha...

Cryptocurrency   Many of us have learned from a reputed bengali newspaper today that India may be the first country in the world where 'cryptocurrency' is going to be banned. Let's find out what this 'cryptocurrency' is all about. In fact, it is a highly secure digital currency exchange method or technology where anyone can use this technology to send or receive money to any end in no time with the help of a third party. Satoshi Nakamoto from Japan first invented this technology in 2009. Bitcoin is the first digital virtual currency to be controlled with this technology. Let's take a look at the features of this technology. Features 1) It is a very secure technology, because the code with which it is created, every user gets a 'Private Key' which is very large and complex, so it is almost impossible to steal or break the code. 2) This technology does not require any third party, so no application or permission is required for this method of transaction. ...

We all know that people are mortal, yet the death of someone makes us mourn. But there are some deaths around us that leave us with many questions. A similar tragedy happened a couple of days ago in front of all of us. I would like to share with you a few words about the tragic death of 9 people in a devastating fire at the Eastern Railway headquarters on Strand Road a couple of days ago. Well, tell me, how many more lives will have to end prematurely? Imagine a firefighting system in an important central government institution where hundreds of railway workers work and hundreds of other people are constantly on the move was not adequate to fight against such a disaster. There was no need to lose so many lives if the building map was received at the right time, the risk of life could be reduced by going through the right position to move very quickly and the water supply could be decided quickly. Another question that strikes us is whether all the firefighters who were present that day...

Some strange facts on Earth Let's take a look at some of the different things that are happening in this world today. Maybe we are familiar with some of the events ,or some not at all. 1) The heat is coming, and to get relief from this intense heat, we often take a variety of cold drinks. Did you know that there are two countries in the world (Cuba and North Korea) where this drink is not available. These two countries are included in the US trade agreement ban. So don't forget to visit these two countries in summer. 2) You would be surprised to know that the current population of the world (about 600 billion, 1 billion = 100 million) is about 800 million, there is no doubt that it will increase in the coming days. If everyone in this population stands shoulder to shoulder then all will be fit within 500 square miles of the famous city of Los Angeles in the United States, which means that all the people of the world can stand together.It's quite surprising, isn't it? 3)...

Bitter Bus Journey Every one of us has to go through various strange events in the course of our daily life. some of those events that happen in the course of our life gives us joy, and some makes our minds bitter.I would like to share with you today such a bitter event. However, I think it happens to all of us at some point. The event took place a couple of days ago.I got on the bus back home like every day. There were several passengers in the bus.There was no more seat vaccant at our side(No seats are now indicated as Gents side for unknown reason) though some seats were still vaccant at ladies side.We were surprised to see a woman sitting at our side seat instead of ladies seat that was lying vaccant. Some of us politely asked her to leave the seat and go to ladies seat so that a male passenger could come and sit in that seat.Those who commute in crowded buses daily can realize the value of an empty seat. Even few female passengers agreed with us and made the same request to he...

One Extinct Custom Everyone will agree that the different pieces of childhood memories will never be forgotten. Whether it is a childhood game of 'lukochuri' or something else. The fun of finding someone in that game of hide and seek is really different. So if we want to play that hide and seek game in adulthood, it is fun, but we have to be a little surprised. But if this game is a tradition of an endangered population, then it makes us more curious. Let us know today an interesting custom which used to be practiced by one of our peoples in India even though it is no longer observed with the passage of time. Mathuvan is one of the indigenous communities of Kerala. At the time of this group's marriage, a strange rule was followed. When the marriage of the boy and the girl was finalised ,his acquaintances would hide the girl in the deep forest at some hidden place with her wedding dress. The boy would have to find his future bride from the forest to prove his bravery and for...
