To put it in a crude way, friend-zone is the experience of liking someone and later finding out that they would rather just be friends. This term was first popularized by the 90s TV show “Friends”. Assuming that the ‘friend zone' is a refuge for those with whom the opposite gender wants to maintain a platonic relation rather than a romantic one. The question arises: Is there an escape?
For this, we have to back-track to the root cause of being friendzoned-that being romantic attraction or sudden attachment toward the opposite sex. Such emotions, nervousness and excitement are scientifically termed as ‘Limerence’. The sudden heart-throb, decreased appetite and other symptoms of being lovesick are all effects of the adrenaline pumping away from the stomach and toward the muscles where it may be better used. Another pathway to the friend zone is better described by the Bateman’s Principle,named after Angus Bateman, the principle states that whenever a species consist of two different sexes with dissimilar sex cells, one sex will have to commit more resources to the production of offspring than the other. This means one sex will be more selective whereas the other one more competitive. Selective, in a sense that, one sex will chose only a few potential mates and reject/“friend zone” a large fraction of pursuers. This approach of choosing the ideal mate can be backed up by defining Homogamy, which is the act of selecting mates on the basis of how similar they are to our own personalities, interests and views for the future. This concept gives rise to hope and possibility that someone wasn’t friendzoned because of their over-friendly or extra-cordial nature but rather due to borderline incompatibility.
However, if western pop-culture has taught us anything it is that individuals are more attracted to people who act cool, are rude or hard to get. Robert Cialdini calls this strange phenomenon ‘The Scarcity Principle’, which basically means we desire things that are difficult to obtain and prefer our freedom to not be limited. Employing this principle in real life, we can perhaps find a route to escape the friend zone itself. To conclude it all, being friend-zoned may be albeit disappointing but in a way, it might be the best place where you’re certain someone needs you the most.

आमाप्रति कुदृष्टि लगाउने शत्रुलाई फाल्ने मान्छे खोज्दै छु ।
मातृभूमिलाई बेचेर रमाउन खोज्नेलाई के नाम दिऊँ म ?
छियाछिया मेरी आमाको मन टाल्ने मान्छे खोज्दै छु,
शत्रुलाई जरैदेखि फाल्ने मान्छे खोज्दै छु ।।
अन्धकारको भ्रम फिँजाएर आमाका गहना चोर्दै छ रे पराई,
त्यस्ता भाइरसलाई चितामा बाल्ने मान्छे खोज्दै छु ।
छिमेकी पनि स्वार्थबिना सहयोग गर्न तम्सिँदैन,
तिम्राे कसम तिमीलाई सधैँ सुखी राखी पाल्ने मान्छे खोज्दै छु,

Will Donald Trump beat his rival Joe Biden and make his way to the White House this year? Well, the voters will decide between Republican candidate President Donald Trump and Democrat former Vice President Joe Biden on November 3, 2020. It is going to be one of the most historic elections the USA will ever see.Trump or Biden will be the oldest candidate to be elected as the President of the United States. At the same time their running mates are Kamala Harris from the Democrat and Mike Pence from the Republican parties.
From election campaigns to the most “insulting” debate, the two are very keen on winning the White
House ticket. The two clashed at each other back to back on their first Presidential debate which was seen by millions of viewers all around the world. Both of them gave their own views on why they should be the President of the USA and why one of them is capable of holding the power of the President. There were many personal comments given to each other which made a total buzz on the news media. The election is not just about who will be the next President, but also about electing the new members of the Congress.
Donald Trump has been among the most controversial presidents in US history. His handling of the coronavirus pandemic has been heavily criticized by not just the US citizens but people all around the world. Not only this, being the president of a powerful nation, he didn’t take heed to health advisory for wearing a mask seriously which resulted in him testing positive for COVID. From the very beginning of the pandemic, instead of taking precautions and saving the lives of US citizens, he has blamed China for it. He has always made a statement saying that the virus will go away which in reality hasn’t. During his four years serving as the president of the United States, he was only making headlines for controversies. He has even made a lot of racist comments which sparked international debate about his image. There is a saying; “Action speaks louder than words”. But in Trump’s case, words have spoken in a louder voice than his work which has always led him to be in headlines of many news channels;whereas his opponent democrat candidate Joe Biden seems to have a lot of positive aspects if he wins the election. According to the BBC, he has said to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour and also invest in green energy. Along with this, he has promised to reverse the immigration policies made by Trump in which he would resolve US-Mexico border issues. He even said he would introduce criminal justice reform in which he mentioned that all the minority communities will not face any kind of discrimination related to race, gender and so on.
The US election has always been a hot topic for everyone around the world and this year is no
exception. Nevertheless, it will be fascinating to see who will win the ‘big ticket’ this year. It will be
exciting to see who will take the limelight, will Trump have his second victory or his rival Biden will
outshine him?

Joe Biden: Where does Joe Biden stand on key issues? /28 September 2020/BBC News
Language is the source of the communication that one's speaks to express their views or ideas on something or about somebody. It is the main historical treasure that a country can have. There are many countries in the world, so, in that way, the languages spoken in them also vary. Each language reflects its country, it is a symbol that speaks about the country's identity. Even in a country, language varies from region to region. Their accent is different. Even so, there is one main language that shows their true identity which is also called the " Mother Tongue".
If we go around the world, there are languages that we may find difficult to speak or difficult to understand. This is because we are unaware of the historical treasure of other countries. This will create a barrier to communication. Like how we find it difficult, similarly in that way they will also find our language difficult. Because there are several languages and we are aware of one or two. Language variation also causes crises or conflicts in the country or between the countries. For example, Wars are caused due to a lack of communication between the countries, so there should be only one global language. Having only one language as global is easy for everyone living in the world. If there is one language, then everyone will be learning the same, everyone can communicate without having trouble understanding. A businessman can do their business job with any country or anyone all around the world, we can easily get to know about other countries, we can travel without feeling uneasy, we can easily understand what is happening or what is the native saying. We can talk to everyone in a comfortable way. So, having a single global language will be peaceful for the world. There will be a limit in war and crime because nations can easily sit down and try to talk about their problems and can also look for a way to solve them. The cultural discrimination in a country will also settle down and therefore, there can be peace and harmony in the people living there.
According to worldwide research, the most spoken language by the native is Mandarin Chinese, and the most spoken language by both native and non-native is English. Some of the data of the languages spoken all around the world is Mandarin Chinese (1.3 B), Spanish (460 M), English (379M), Hindi (341M), Arabic (315M). Who knows the world might just end on having one of these.
The world might be benefitted by having a single language at one evident but, on the other hand, having a single language has some disadvantages. If there is just a single language then all the other languages will disappear, their origin, culture, history everything will go down. Each language shows the culture of one and that culture will be forgotten. This will also ruin tourism as well as foreign studies and hence there would be no reason for traveling for pleasure and interest. In an instant, many countries will be devastated. There might be a plus point on having a single language but the world will lose much of its identity
नेपालमा कोरोना भाइरसबाट सङ्क्रमितकाे बढ्दो सङ्ख्या चरम सीमामा पुगेको छ । नेपाल सरकारले अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय नाकामा गर्नुपर्ने कडाइ सही ढङ्गले गर्न सकेको छैन जसका कारण अहिले हाम्रो देशमा सङ्क्रमितहरूकाे सङ्ख्या बढ्दै गएको छ र यसले विकराल रूप लिएकाे छ । भारतमा बढ्दै गएको कोरोना सङ्क्रमितको सङ्ख्यालाई नेपाल सरकारले वास्ता नगरी नेपाल र भारतबिचको सिमाना खोलेकाे छ । नेपाल र भारतबिच खुला सिमानाका कारण भारतबाट नेपाल प्रवेश गर्ने नेपाली वा भारतीय नागरिक तथा विदेशी नागरिकको परीक्षण नगरिएकाले आज हाम्रो देशमा सङ्क्रमण बढ्दै गएको छ । नेपाल र भारतबिचको खुला सिमानाका कारण जाे कोही पनि नेपालमा प्रवेश गर्न सक्षम भएका छन् । सरकारले गर्नुपर्ने न्यूनतम काम पनि गरिएको देखिँदैन । हरेक क्षेत्रबाट परीक्षणको दायरा बढाउन आग्रह गरिँदा पनि सरकारले परीक्षणको दायरा बढाउन सकेकाे छैन ।
हाम्रो देश अहिले काेराेना सङ्क्रमणकाे चरम सीमामा पुगेको छ । भाइरसको कारणले महिनाैँ चलेको लकडाउनकाे कारणले गर्दा हाम्रो देशको अर्थ व्यवस्था कमजोर भएकाे छ र धेरै मानिस रोजगारीबाट निकालिएका छन् । धेरै मानिसले खान नपाएर आत्महत्या पनि गरेका छन् । विद्यार्थीहरूको भविष्य पनि अन्धकारमा गएकाे छ ।
व्यक्ति व्यक्तिबाट कोरोना समुदायमा फैलिसकेको छ । समुदायमा फैलिएको कोरोना सङ्क्रमण नियन्त्रणका लागि चाल्नुपर्ने कदमका बारेमा सरकारले खासै ध्यान दिएकाे छैन । सरकारले अन्य क्षेत्रमा खर्च हुन नसकेको बजेटलाई कोरोना सङ्क्रमणकाे क्षेत्रमा लगाएर परीक्षणकाे दायरालाई बढाएर समुदायमा फैलिरहेको सङ्रक्रमणलाई नियन्त्रण गर्न सकिन्छ । सरकारले स्थानीय स्तरमा कडाइ गर्न नसकेका कारण अहिले पनि मानिसको जथाभावी आवतजावतलाई नियन्त्रण गर्न स्थानीय प्रशासन असफल भएकाे छ र यसैका कारण कोरोना सङ्क्रमण फैलिएको हामी देख्न सक्छौँ ।
सरकारले काेराेना नियन्त्रणका लागि अब केही ठोस निर्णय लिनु अत्यावश्यक छ । यदि सरकारले यस्ताे निर्णय लिन नसके काेराेनाले हाम्रो देशमा इटाली, अमेरिका, भारतलगायतका देशमा जस्तो रूप लिन समय लाग्दैन ।
Born in Springfield, Massachusetts on October 9, 1942, Michael Palmer was an American physician and author. He is mostly known for writing medical thrillers. He is the creator of novels like Extreme Measures (1991), Natural Causes (1994), Silent Treatment (1995), Critical judgment (1996), and Miracle Cure (1998), and so on. Many of his novels have made it to The New York Times Best Seller list and have been translated into several languages.
Critical judgment is one of the best creations of Palmer. This book revolves around a highly skilled female doctor, Abby Dolan who is portrayed as a part detective, part scientist, and part physician. Abby moves to the town of Patience, California with her fiancé. Her fiancé, Josh Wyler has a new job with the manufacturing giant of the town, Colstar. Colstar is portrayed as an economic entity on which the survival and development of the whole town depends. Abby is employed in the emergency room and comes across patients that she has no idea of what is happening to them. She is seeing an alarming number of NIWWC- No idea what’s wrong’ cases. Meanwhile, Josh is also showing similar symptoms and that’s when she suspects Patience to be subjected to cadmium exposure by something at Colstar. Her suspicions are shared by one of her colleagues, Dr. Lew Alvarez, who has made a secret investigating committee regarding the same issue. Dr. Alvarez warns Abby that this is a dangerous game of cat and mouse with Colstar's head of security and her predecessor in the ER might have been killed for the same reason the committee is for. However, Abby does not back off when she loses patients in the ER due to the same ‘cadmium poisoning’ as she suspected. She then goes off to get to the root of the problem not knowing her true enemies.
Critical judgment is a medical thriller with lots of cliff-hangers, excitement, suspense, and ending twist. This book leaves the reader thinking. Since it is a Michael Palmer creation, Critical judgment focuses on plenty of details regarding medical terms and processes. Palmer gives a lot of attention to the emergency room showing several absolutely electric emergency crises and the decision-making power of the medical staff that works in the Emergency Room. Palmer’s description of the professional politics and atmosphere of a small-town regional hospital is interesting and informative including the challenges and opportunities that set it apart from its bigger city counterparts.
While reading the book you will find yourself following Abby throughout the story, fearing for her and cheering for her. I think this book is a roller coaster ride of a read. Therefore, I can say that the book does not disappoint. Critical judgment is an excellent book full of non-stop action. It is wonderfully written with turns and twists and the ending is not what you expect it to be. I would highly recommend this book to readers who like the combination of mystery, thriller, and medical drama in a single book.

हरेक देशको आ-आफ्नै संस्कृति, परम्परा साथै मौलिकता हुन्छ । त्यस्तै गरी विकास पनि हरेक देशको आफ्नै मौलिकतामा आधारित रहेर बनेको हुन्छ । त्यस्तो विकास नै वास्तवमा कुनै पनि देशको लागि हितकारी हुन्छ किनकि आफ्नो परिवेशअनुसारको विकासले नै समृद्धि हासिल गर्न सक्छ तर अहिलेको अवस्था हेर्ने हो भने विकासको नाममा अरू देशको नक्कल गर्ने प्रवृत्ति बढ्दै गएको पाइन्छ । नेपालको सन्दर्भमा कुरा गर्दा विकासको नाममा विदेशी मुलुकको सिको गर्ने प्रणाली बढ्दै गएको पाइन्छ । आफ्नो मौलिकतालाई मासेर अरूको नक्कल गर्ने यस्तो प्रवृत्तिलाई अक्कलबिनाको नक्कल भनिन्छ । नक्कल गर्दा पनि अक्कलको प्रयोग गरेर गरियो भने त त्यसले केही हदसम्म राम्रो गर्छ तर अक्कलबिनाको नक्कलले सदैव विनाशको मुखमा धकेल्छ । त्यस्तै विकासमा पनि कुनै देशले गरेको विकासलाई जस्ताको त्यस्तै आफ्नो देशमा उतार्न खोज्नु पनि एक मुर्खाता नै हो किनकि सबै देशको वातावरण तथा परिवेश बेग्लाबेग्लै हुन्छ ।
भारतवर्षीय देशहरूको कुरा गर्ने हो भने तिनको आफ्नै एउटा संस्कृति छ, इतिहास छ, जसलाई पूर्वीय दर्शन भन्ने गरिन्छ र त्योभन्दा बाहेक युराेपकाे दर्शनलाई पश्चिमा दर्शन भनिन्छ । पूर्वीय र पश्चिमा दर्शनहरूमा आनको तान फरक छ । संस्कृति, रहनसहनलगायत भेषभूषा सबै फरक छन् जसले गर्दा हामीले हाम्रो मौलिकतामा रहेर विकास गर्नु नै हाम्रा लागि उत्तम बन्न पुग्छ । अहिलेको परिप्रेक्ष्यमा मानिसलाई विकास भनेको ठुला-ठुला भवनहरू, चिल्ला र चौडा पारेका सडकहरू भन्ने लाग्छ तर के यही हो त विकासको स्वरूप ? यस्ता संरचनाहरू देख्दा अवश्य हाम्राे मन लोभिन्छ । आहा ! कति राम्रो विकास गरेको भन्ने लाग्छ तर वास्तवमा यस्ता चिज विकास नभइकन कङ्क्रिटहरूको एउटा संरचनाले तयार गरिएको कार्य हो जुन कुनै पनि बेला विनाशमा परिणत हुन बेर लाग्दैन । मानौँ केही गरी ठुलो भूकम्प गएर ती संरचना भत्किए भने तिनलाई व्यवस्थापन गर्न निकै गाह्रो हुन्छ र मैले यस्तो विकास गरेँ भनेर मक्ख परेका राष्ट्रहरूलाई नै त्यो विकास भोलि गएर टाउको दुखाइको विषय बन्न पुग्छ।
तर यसो भन्दैमा के अब बाटो नै नबाउने हो त ? विकास नै नगर्ने हो त ? त्यसो भन्न पनि खोजेको हैन । विकास गर्नुपर्छ तर अहिले जुन हामीले विश्वलाई नै कङ्क्रिटयुक्त बनाएर हिँडिरहेका छौँ, त्यसलाई रोकथाम चाहिँ गर्नुपर्छ । अति आवश्यक ठाउँमा मात्र त्यसको प्रयोग गर्न सक्नुपर्छ । नेपालको इतिहासमा हाम्रो मौलिक विकास कस्तो रहेछ भनेर हेर्दाखेरि त हाम्रा पूर्वजहरूको पालामा आफू बस्ने घर कच्ची माटोको बनाइँदो रहेछ जुन केही गरी भत्किहाल्यो भने पनि त्यही माटामा सजिलै मिसिने र पछि फेरि प्रयोग गर्न मिल्ने खालको हुँदो रहेछ । त्यो भनेको चाहिँ बस्न पनि हुने, प्रकृतिविरुद्ध पनि नहुने र भोलि व्यवस्थापन गर्न पनि सजिलो हुने किसिमको भयो । अर्को भनेको मूलको पानी प्रयाेग गरिँदाे रहेछ जुन गर्मी महिनामा चिसो र जाडो महिनामा तातो हुन्छ । हामी भने प्रकृतिले नै बनाइदिएको कुरालाई मासेर विकास गर्नतिर लागेका छौँ, यही हो त विकासको परिभाषा ? आधुनिक बन्ने निहुँमा जुन कङ्क्रिट प्रयोग गरेर हामी घर बनाउँछौँ, त्यो पनि जाडोमा चिसो न चिसो र गर्मीमा तातो न तातो हुन्छ जबकि कच्ची घरमा जाडोमा न्यानो र गर्मीमा चिसो हुन्छ । त्यसैले हामी विकासको निहुँमा विनासतिर धकेलिँदै छौँ भन्ने यही उदाहरणबाट प्रमाणित हुन्छ ।
प्रकृतिविरुद्ध काम पनि नहुने र आफ्नो काम पनि सजिलै हुने प्रकृतिमैत्री विकासलाई पो सही ढङ्गमा विकास भन्न सकिँदो रहेछ । आफ्नो आवश्यकता पनि पुरा हुने र प्रकृतिविरुद्ध काम पनि नहुने त्यस्तो खालको संरचनालाई पो विकास भनिँदो रहेछ । तसर्थ हामीले विकास गर्नुपर्छ तर विकास गर्ने निहुँमा प्रकृतिलाई अनावश्यक दोहन भने गर्नुहुँदैन र विकासका नाममा विनाशतिर लाग्नुहुँदैन । हाम्रो जस्तो देशले त अझ आफ्नो परिवेशअनुसार गर्न सक्ने, गर्न हुने र आफ्नो मौलिकता पनि कायम रहने गरी विकास गर्नुपर्छ । यसरी विकास गर्ने हो भने मात्र देश सही बाटामा लाग्छ अन्यथा अरूको लहलहैमा लगेर "अर्काको लिन खोज्दा आफ्नै पोल्टाको खस्यो" भनेझैँ अरूको सिको गर्न खोज्दा आफ्नै कुरा सत्यानाश पार्छौं । त्यसैले गर्दा कुनै पनि देशले आफ्नो मौलिकतामा रहेर विकास गर्नु नै बुद्धिमानी हुन्छ ।
Well, the question that I am going to put forward and ask you is very disturbing. But, let's bear with it and stay that you are in a place of a boy/girl that has been raped.
How would you feel when the rapist that lives next door to yours is roaming around freely even after you have appealed for justice and he was found guilty. Yes, that is what happens in the real world especially in a country like Nepal. Then how can we expect punishment as serious as the Death sentence to be applied when we don't even have proper justice?
Well, in my opinion, Rapists deserve to be hanged but what I would like to take into consideration is, in this modern era of false accusation and injustice what if an innocent person is hanged in someone else's place? As power and wealth come way handier to these ill-minded people and even justice goes blind and craves for money, How can we expect the real culprit to be caught and punished? We have the examples in Nepal as well. Why hasn't Nirmala Panta's case been solved despite all people demanding justice?. I feel like these people who were involved in this brutal, shameful act are indeed the sons of a wealthy known family and are freely roaming around without any consequences. Whereas people like farmers are dying in jail or on the street after everything being taken away from him/her for not being able to pay back their loan. Well, you might be thinking, Why I am connecting a farmer and a rape victim right?
Yes, this is what is happening right now, “Rich are getting richer and poor are getting poorer ” All this is happening is because of filthy politics and blind justice being directed by ill mindsets who choose money instead of duty. I would like to go with
“Rapist should be hanged to death If and only If he/she is the real rapist and understands that rape is an Immoral act ”
What I mean to say is, there is no chance for a rapist to be a person who doesn't understand what rape is and what can be its consequences to the victim. I go with
“REAL RAPIST MUST BE HANGED TO DEATH”.
As I am not that kind of person who takes the word rape easily and it being put into jokes and the saying “It's a joke”. What I feel like is even the people who make bad jokes about rape by using it as a Meme Troll, or Dark Humour should be rightly punished as well.
Because rape is not a thing that you can laugh on and show how much you get sarcasm. It is a very serious thing and if that doesn't make sense imagine your sister/mother/brother or even yourself in that place where you had been a victim, who is trying to put your life together and trying to live again.
You would not want to be the person who is going to crash that person's life once again, would you?
कीर्ति राख पछिसम्म बाँच्न सक्ने गरी
जनताको मनभित्र पस्न सक्ने गरी ।
पूर्वजले राखे कीर्ति जनताकै लागि
आफ्नै श्रम र पसिनाले धान्न सक्ने गरी ।।
हामीभन्दा अगाडिका कति बिती गए
जानुपर्छ हामी पनि धनजन छाडी ।
हामी जाँदा सबै मान्छे दुःख मान्ने बनून्
काँडा बनी जीवनमा नघाेचाैँ न खालि ।।
गरौँ असल कर्महरू जनताका लागि
भिक्षा मागी खाऊँ बरु धनमान त्यागी ।
जीवन त्यो नै सुखी होला सारा सुख त्यागी
सुख कतै मिल्ने छैन दुःखबाट भागी ।
त्यागमा जति सुख मिल्छ भोगमा मिल्ने छैन
पटक पटक मानव जीवन फेरि पाइने छैन ।
राम्रो काम गर्नलाई भोली नभन न
समाजमा बाँचनलाई नमुना नै बन ।।
I recalled things that happened,
In these past few years.
It hurts to remember how I tried,
To make relations with those
Who would bring me tears.
What a fool I was to not know
That had I talked to you,
I would never have to bow
In front of those, who used
To put on fake shows.
It’s the end of a journey
And I want to forget,
All the filthy words if I have ever said.
Because for you,
Thanking wouldn’t be enough,
As getting paid.
घरघर आउँछन्, माग्ने मलाई केही देऊ भनेर
तर, हामी निष्ठुरी मानिस भन्छौँ, ‘तँ यहाँबाट गइहाल्’ भनेर ।
लुगा छ फाटेको, टाटे पाङ्ग्रे चारैतिर टालटुल पारेको
विश्व जान्दछु भन्ने मानिस ! खै माग्नेको कुरा बुझेको ??
धर्मकर्म जान्दछु भन्ने मानिस ! माग्नेको चाहिँ कस्तो कर्म हो ?
कहिलेकाहीँ मनभरको गाली र एक दुईको सिक्का दिनु नै धर्म हो ?
लाखौँ रुपैयाँ धर्मकर्मको नाममा दान दिन सक्छौँ हामी
तर, माग्नेलाई दुई गाँस खान दिन दाँतबाट पसिना झार्छौं हामी ।।
यो प्रश्न हो सारा मासिनहरूका लागि जो देखाउनका लागि धर्म गर्दछन्,
माग्ने घरमा आउँदा एक जोर पुराना कपडा दिनसमेत पछि हट्दछन् ।
ईश्वरसमेत मानिस कसरी यति बैगुनी भयो भनेर सोच्दछन् होला
यसरी मानव चोलाको सिर्जना गरेकोमा आफूलाई धिकार्दछन् होला ।।
मानिस धेरै जान्ने बुझ्ने भएकाले माग्नुलाई विकृति ठान्दछन्,
त्यही भएर होला उनीहरू माग्नेलाई हेला गर्दछन् ।
दुईचार जना ठग भए भन्दैमा सारा माग्नेहरूलाई दोस्नु हुँदैन,
जान्ने बुझ्ने मानिसले अरूको बारेमा नराम्रो सोच्नु हुँदैन ।।
यो कविता हो ती तमाम मानिसहरूका लागि
जो माग्नेलाई हेला गर्दछन् जानी नजानी ।
ती माग्नेहरूको परिस्थिति नबुझ्ने हामी
धिक्कार छ हाम्रो देखावटी मानवताका लागि ।।
