Every culture has a unique food philosophy. The way we cook our food tells a lot about who we are. Put together a group of Bengalis and the conversation will invariably veer towards food accompanied by spirited repartee involving the subtleties of Bangal (East Bengal) and Ghost cuisines. Factor in the cultural diversity of India and we could have similar debates played out a million times over. Palates may be formed by socio-cultural influences, but the act of cooking itself is a spiritual pursuit. [more]

In a world, where everyone fights to the death, it’s rare to have a weakling. But every once in a while, it happens. And they usually die before they turn 10. There aren’t any parents around to save you. It’s every person for themselves. The parents’ abandon you after you’re born. If you’re lucky enough, a child may take you into your care. Sometimes the animals take pity on you. But sooner or later, whether an animal or human takes you in, the Fighters come. And they tell you who you really are. And then whisk you away but not before trying to kill the adopted family you have. They die unless they try to fight back. This is a world where society has broken down so much; it’s almost barbaric. The Fighters are the last of the army. The Center is the last of the Government. But, is the world really broken down that much? Or, are they just saying that, for their own entertainment…? [more]

It Was A Rainy November Afternoon. Dinner Was Over, The Great Wood Fire Had Been Made Up, And Mistress Talbot Was Presiding over The Womenfolk Of Her Household And Their Tasks With Needle And Distaff. She Had Laid Hands On Her Unwilling son Edward To Show His Father How Well He Could Read The Piece De Resistance Of The Family, Fabyan'S Chronicle; And The Boy, With An Elbow Firmly Planted on Either Side Of The Great Folio, Was Floundering through The Miseries Of King stephen'S Time; While Mr. Talbot, After Smoothing the Head Of His Largest Hound For Some Minutes, Had Leant Back In his Chair And Dropped asleep. Cicely'S Hand Tardily Drew Out Her Thread, Her Spindle Scarcely Balanced itself On The Floor, And Her Maiden Meditation Was In an Inactive Sort Of Way Occupied with The Sense Of Dulness After The Summer Excitements, And Wonder Whether Her Greatness Were All A Dream, And Anything would Happen To Recall Her Once More To Be A Princess. The Kitten At Her Feet Took The Spindle For A Lazily Moving creature, And Thought Herself Fascinating it, So She Stared hard, With Only An Occasional Whisk Of The End Of Her Striped tail; And Mistress Susan Was Only Kept Awake By Her Anxiety To Adapt Diccon'S Last Year'S Jerkin To Ned'S Use.

Like A Sudden Cloudburst The Dormitory Had Gone Into A Frenzy Of Sound. Doors Slammed, Feet Trampled, Hoarse Voices Reverberated, Heavy Bodies Flung Themselves Along The Corridor, The Very Electrics Trembled With The Cataclysm. One Moment All Was Quiet With A Contented After-Dinner-Peace-Before-Study Hours; The Next It Was As If All The Forces Of The Earth Had Broken Forth. Paul Courtland Stepped To His Door And Threw It Back. "Come On, Court, See The Fun!" Called The Football Half-Back, Who Was Slopping Along With Two Dripping Fire-Buckets Of Water. "What's Doing?" "Swearing-Match! Going To Make Little Stevie Cuss! Better Get In On It. Some Fight! Tennelly Sent 'Whisk' For A Whole Basket Of Superannuated Cackle-Berries"--He Motioned Back To A Freshman Bearing A Basket Of Ancient Eggs--"We're Going To Blindfold Steve And Put Oysters Down His Back, And Then Finish Up With The Fire-Hose. Oh, The Seven Plagues Of Egypt Aren't In It With What We're Going To Do; And When We Get Done If Little Stevie Don't Let Out A String Of Good, Honest Cuss-Words Like A Man Then I'll Eat My Hat. Little Stevie's Got Good Stuff In Him If It Can Only Be Brought Out. We're A-Going To Bring It Out. Then We're Going To Celebrate By Taking Him Over To The Theater And Making Him See 'The Scarlet Woman.' It'll Be A Little Old Miracle, All Right, If He Has Any Of His Whining Puritanical Ideas Left In Him After We Get Through With Him. Come On! Get On The Job!" [more]
