It’s not just a place where you get to learn Einstein’s Theory of
Relativity. It’s also a place where you can think beyond the
classroom. Hence we say, SCHOOL IS COOL!
SCHOOL IS COOL 03
W
e must have read through
newspapers published as
the written documentary
of news reports on a daily basis.
Those working in a press industry
like journalists or media persons
have this huge undertaking for serv-
ing the entire society
.
A society is famous for its lofty
gossip on “unactual truth” thus, the
disintegration of harmonious liv-
ing. “To break the news is to break
the ethics of spreading knowledge”
sounds beyond the limits of com-
mon social messages. I’ve often
come across channels that have a
pivotal role in attention to extreme
details of a mishap or social issue.
But it is believed, that these
channels are bound to break rules
inconspicuous of actual truth or de-
fecting lie. Every profession has its
own code of ethics to follow even
during an emergency
.
Similar is the press industry,
where media workers are
trained to interpret
the happenings in
an unbiased, preju-
diced manner. I
would like to start
with my disagree-
ment towards
breaking the basic
morale ahead of boundaries. It is
alright when it comes to the task of
spreading positivity among the au-
dience through interviews or dedi-
cated services meant for the uplift-
ing cause.
But they often tend to break
their “integral” value by indulging
in unwanted questions oblivious of
the sensitivity in serious
matters. That, therefore, vio-
lates the right to privacy
over individual mat-
ters reserved only for
them. Likewise, col-
lectivistic orienta-
tion is to be given
prior impor-
tance.
Certain
communal and religious sen-
timents have been offended
by “extravertive men” acting
as the influential superpow-
ers. Superpower, in this con-
text, means the exertion of
one’s dominant views on contro-
versial issues related to subjects of
major interest.
News channels also tend to
favour the majority rule say over
minorities in a democratic nation
that tends to serve the best interests
of its citizens. With our enlighten-
ment and verge towards the actual
truth, amidst ethics violations, can
we identify the right or wrong of
what is printed in papers.
Therefore, it is unforgiving
to “break the rules to break
the news”. News channels
must also ensure their ac-
countability for their ac-
tions.

Most gripping and
unforgettable story
F
irekeeper’s Daughter by Angelina Bouley is one of the most gripping and unforget-
table stories that I have read in recent times. Eighteen-year-old Daunis’s mixed her-
itage had made her feel like an outsider. Being a Fontaine (mother’s side) and a fire
keeper (father’s side) is hard as Daunis can’t balance her family life. When a new tragedy
strikes, Daunis becomes enveloped in an FBI investigation of a dangerous drug, called
meth that may be coming from Sugar Island which results in
murders.
Once she joins the operation to find out about the mur-
ders which are connected to the hallucinogenic drug meth,
she realizes that the corruption runs deeper and much clos-
er to home than she ever could have imagined. The story
revolves around the fact whether she can handle all this
and overcome the hardships with her strength and sanity
intact.
My favourite part is the conclusion which I cannot
reveal. It made me bawl my eyes out. I loved this book
because of the vivid details the author had added causing
the reader to imagine the scene to the T. This was probably
my favorite summer read. Firekeeper’s daughter is so much
more than a thriller. It shows how far the author’s love for
her culture is engraved into the books. After I picked the
book, I couldn’t stop reading it. I found myself
breathless and hard-pressed to believe that the
book was already over and my journey in the fic-
tional world as well. This book is for adults/ teens as it contains
some parts about drug use, racism, murder, and sexual assault.
However, this is one exhilarating read that can help you over-
come a reading slump any day and take you on a powerful ride.

A
s we head into Day 4 at the
Asian Track Cycling Champi-
onships, it is Japan that leads
the medal tally with 11 golds.
The Japanese have won 11
golds, 6 silver and 2 bronze, with a total of
19 medals. Three of their golds have come
from Para-Cycling. The Koreans are in the
second position with 10G, 9S, and 2B ahead
of Kazakhstan (4G, 3S, 1B). India is at fifth
place with 2G, 5S and 13B.
HOPING FOR MEDAL
On Tuesday
, there were six finals but India’s
search for a medal on the fourth day of the
championship continues to draw a blank.
The growing event ‘Cycling’ in India could-
n’t give any medal to India at the end of 4th
day of the Championship but Indian Cy-
clists won the hearts by giving their best
ever performances. Ronaldo Singh won his
quarter-finaleventof theMen’sSprintevent
and advanced to the semi-final on Tuesday
where he will challenge to Andrey Chugay
of Kazakhstan. Ronaldo clocked 10.394s
(69.27km/h) and 10.234s (70.353 km/h) re-
spectively to defeat Jee One Park of Korea
in continuous two sprints. “Tomorrow is a
big day for me as I will perform in one of
my favourite events, I’m ready to give my
personal best to earn the medal for India.
This will also show me my preparedness
for the upcoming Commonwealth Games”
said Ronaldo in a statement.
HIMANSHI DISQUALIFIED
Harashveer Singh Sekhon gave a good fight
to the Korean (Euro KIM) and Japanese

Points race. In this power event, peddlers
have to show their endurance and sprint

A
nation dealing
with its worst
economic cri-
sis and high
inflation for
months had
something to
celebrate wh-
en Sri Lanka
sealed a limited-overs cricket series
victory with a game to spare against
Australia with a last-ball thriller in
Game 4. Having been sent in and re-
stricted to 258 in 49 overs, Dasun
Shanaka’s Sri Lanka lineup held its
nerve to bowl out Australia for 254 to
secure the five-match ODI series 3-1.
The last game Friday will be more
like preparation for the test series.
SLOWER DELIVERY
Australia needed 19 off the last over
bowled by skipper Shanaka, and No.
10 batter Matthew Kuhnemann (15)
hit three boundaries to get the visi-
tors’ equation down to five runs re-
quired off the last ball to keep the se-
ries alive. But he was deceived by a
slower delivery, hitting it straight up
in the air for Charith Asalanka to
catch in the covers. In the end, David
Warner’s 99 wasn’t quite enough to
get the Australians over the line af-
ter Asalanka hit a 106-ball 110 and
Dhananjaya de Silva scored 60 from
61 deliveries for Sri Lanka. Sri Lan-
ka had not beaten Australia in an ODI
series since 2010 and hadn’t won a bi-
lateral series at home against the
Australians since 1992. Australia won
the toss and made a bold call to bowl
first, a gamble which almost paid off.
SMARTLY STUMPED
Australia was on course for the tar-
get as Warner and Travis Head (27)
added 58 runs for the fifth wicket but
lost three wickets for the addition of
three runs in the space of eight de-
liveries. Part-timer de Silva removed
Head and Warner in his successive
overs, starting when he bowled Head
with the penultimate ball of the 36th.
Maheesh Theekshana (1-40) trapped
Glenn Maxwell (1) in the next over
from the other end before de Silva re-
turned and had Warner smartly
stumped by wicketkeeper Niroshan
Dickwella on the first ball of the 38th
over. Warner was unlucky to be dis-
missed one run short of his 19th ODI
hundred. The opener has not scored
an international hundred for more
than two years across all formats. De
Silva finished with 2-39 in his 10 overs
to back up his half-century during
the Sri Lankan innings. The middle-
order batter hit seven fours before
he was spectacularly caught by
Maxwell, and he combined with
Asalanka in an innings-reviving 101-
run stand.
Asalanka was the hero for
Sri Lanka with his first ODI
hundred, joining de Silva with
the total at 34-3. The tour is all
square heading into the two-match
test series, with Australia winning
the Twenty20 format 2-1 and Sri Lan-
ka taking the ODI portion. AP
