German Unity Day: A Pride for those living in Germany


Everyone in this world wants to be independent and free without any kind of interference from outside. Similarly, German Unity Day is celebrated to commemorate the reunification different German republics to form a single state. 

The day is a national holiday in the country and it is celebrated by fireworks, festivals and ceremonies. It is a big day for people and gives them immense pleasure and satisfaction as they feel free and liberated. 

Thus, on German Unity Day I would like to wish each and every citizen of Germany a very happy Unity Day and hoping that the country prosperes each day.

  1. I have a long experience of travelling into both parts of divided Germany.
    The German Democratic Republic (East German)
    The Federal Republic of Germany ( West Germany)
    They were two different worlds for a traveller like me.
    The living conditions of FRG were much better than GDR.
    But I may tell with my experience that the Germans in the GDR were feeling much secure if not affluent. However, they wanted to come and live in FRG.
    The change in life within the divided city of Berlin could very much be felt when you crossed over to Eastern part through the gate of Berlin wall. They had very healthy food and secure life at the cost of Government but not the luxuries of west. For a fee of just DM 100 per day, a very charming guide who was also a student was very happy to travel around and live with me in and around the industrial city of Dresden.
    However, their desire to be one Germany was so strong that they demolished the Berlin wall with their hammers and shovels.
    In India International Trade Fair in New Delhi, the German Democratic Republic had booked Hall No. 8 for themselves but due to unification of Germany, they cancelled the Hall and merged their exhibition with the Hall of Federal Republic of Germany.
    I extend my greetings to my German Friends, who are still my business associates as well.

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

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.

National Blonde Brownie Day: A day to indulge in the much loved dessert

Brownies are very popular dessert items of today and are made by mixing butter, eggs, flour, sugar, baking powder and most importantly, cocoa. Blonde brownies have a unique flavour and through they are not well known but are very delicious.  There are many stories regarding the origin of blonde brownies. One of the stories is that it appeared in a Boston Cookbook which was published by Fannie Farmer in 1896. Another story is that it was made by chefs at Chicago's Palmer House Hotel in 1893 for World's Colombian Exposition.  The brownies rapidly became a dessert in 1906 when Boston Cookbook by Fanny was updated with a blonde brownie recipe.
