OUR INDIA
After 73 Years I learned this .. How about you
*Did you know?*
On 15th August, on India's Independence Day, the *tricolour*, our national flag is "hoisted", whereas on the 26th January, that is, on our Republic Day, it is "unfurled".
What is the difference between hoisting the flag and unfurling the same?
Well, on 15th August, the flag is kept folded, down at the middle of the flag pole, and is pulled up at the tip of the pole before it is spread out. This is hoisting of a flag. It signifies the country was freed after a span of colonial domination. On the other hand, on 26th January (since 1950) the tricolour is unfurled, that is, the flag stays high up at the tip of the flag pole, (not at the middle or lower height of the pole) folded, and is spread out with the pull of the rope. This is unfurling of the tricolour. It signifies that as a flag of an already free country, it cannot stay hung at a lower height, but is held high above.
This is a small but very significant aspect of how our tricolour is honoured with the country's history. Let us remember it's glory today and realize our true duty as an Indian: it's not of narrow nationalism, but inclusion and unity in diversity.
Jai Bharat.

SRI LANKAN
FOOD - Sri Lanka is known As the pearl of the Indian Ocean, and that's because
it really is a gem of an island. Today we had the privilege to visit an
Indigenous Vedda Sri Lankan Village, where they prepared for us some
traditional Sri Lankan food.
We first
arrived to the lake, where we then had to take a boat across the lake, and then
walk for about 30 minutes to get the village. The lush greenery, and an actual
beauty was pristine. It started raining, so we just stopped cup of tea.
We arrived
at the village, and we were greeted with open hands and an extremely warm
welcom. The Aunty started cooking, a number of different dishes using millet,
and the main dish with fresh deer meat. The food was unlike other Sri Lankan
food I had before, and relied mainly on crops and ingredients they grew
themselves locally.
It was an
honor to experience Vedda culture and tradition, and food. Even though Uncle
and I could not speak the same language or communicate verbally, it was hugely
rewarding to just sit next to Uncle, smile, and share thoughts and positivity.
This was one
of the most memorable meals and experiences I had in Sri Lanka.

PHOTO OF THE DAY
This award-winning 1967 photo, taken by Rocco Morabito, was titled "The Kiss of Life." It shows two electrical operators, Champion Randall and JD Thompson, on top of an electricity pole.
They had been performing routine maintenance when Champion brushed one of the low voltage lines at the top of the power pole. More than 4,000 volts entered Champion's body and his heart was instantly stopped (an electric chair uses about 2,000 volts). His safety harness prevented a fall, and Thompson, who had been ascending below him, quickly reached him and took a mouth-to-mouth breath. He was not able to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation, given the circumstances, but continued mouth-to-mouth breathing, keeping Champion's lungs active until he felt a slight pulse, then unfastened the harness and descended with it on his shoulder. Thompson and other workers performed CPR on the floor at Champion, whose breathing and heart rate were gradually restored. Then the paramedics arrived and Champion's recovery was complete. His partner had saved his life with what the picture looks like a kiss. Champion survived and lived until 2002, when he died of heart failure at the age of 64. Thompson is still living. The photograph was published in newspapers around the world and won the Pulitzer Prize in 1968.
