End of an Era as Mahendra Singh Dhoni Announces Retirement

Mahendra Singh Dhoni retires: Look at record and stats of India's ...

Mahendra Singh Dhoni is not a name but a heartbeat of all Indians. His journey and life inspired various people to succeed in their goals. His captaincy has been very inspirational as he has become the only captain after Kapil Dev who won World Cup for India. 

Mahendra Singh Dhoni is a native of Jharkhand and came from a normal middle-class family where his father did not want him to become a cricketer but have a job and settle down in life. He didn't give up and kept on struggling to find his place in cricket. 

His helicopter shot would be worth remembering as he was someone who introduced it to cricket and aced it well. His teammates always trusted him and always said that Mahi sambhal lega. His attitude, nature and love for cricket was something that nobody could have. 

He rarely lost his temper on-field and always encouraged his mates to play well. He was famous as Captian Cool. He won T20 Cups and ICC Champions Trophy for the country. He was a captain who always lifted the spirit of all the players.

His field judgments were very sound and many foreign cricketers loved him when he played. He had an aura that motivated people to try something new. His retirement is an end to the cricketing era. He was a player who could make non-cricket lovers fall in love with the game.

His life inspired director Neeraj Pandey to make a movie on him starring Late Sushant Singh Rajput. I will always remember Dhoni as one of the best persons and cricketers an Indian team would ever have.

How online education is proving to be the biggest failure in India

As we all know that the schools have been closed due to COVID 19 pandemic and the students have been taking online classes from the last few months. Online classes are becoming the biggest failures in India. Some of the reasons for the failure of online classes are bad internet connectivity. Despite knowing that all the work around the world is being done online, the cellular networks are not increasing their network speed due to which the class gets hampered.  One of the other reasons can be that students do not have a habit to take classes online and that also on laptops and computers. They do not learn until they get scolded or shouted upon. That system has completely led to the failure of the classes as you do not know whether your concepts are clear to the students or not.  The teachers are also facing a lot of issues in taking online classes as all the matter needs to be written well before hand so that the explanation becomes easier. The setting up of the class like env...

National Pepper Pot Day: A dish that won the war

National Pepper Pot Day is celebrated to remember the dish that was nicknamed as the soup which won the war. The day is marked annually on December 29. There was a very terrible and ruthless cold in 1777-1778.  The Continental Army was fighting for the newly formed United States of America during the Revolutionary War. As the soldiers camped at Valley Forge in 1997 on December 29, George Washington asked the chef of the army to make a meal which would warm them and boost their spirits.  The chef took some tripe, pieces of meat, pepper and other ingredients and made Pepper Pot Soup, which was also known as Philadelphia Pepper Pot Soup. The soup was enjoyed by the troops and nicknamed as the soup which won the war. The day can be enjoyed by making Pepper Pot Soup and the recipe of the same is available online.
