ब्लूज़ के गाने, लोक गीतों की तरह, एक निरंतर बहती धारा की तरह हैं, और उन निरंतरताओं तथा चोरियों (प्रेरणाओं) को पकड़ना ही इस कला में अर्थ और जटिलता भरता है - और यही इस सबका मज़ा भी है।

Blues songs, like folk songs, are a continuous stream, and catching the continuities and thefts is part of what puts meaning and complexity into it - also part of the fun of it all.

आर्किमिडीज़ ने 'यूरिका' कहा, क्योंकि अंग्रेज़ी से उनका ज़्यादा वास्ता नहीं था, जब उन्होंने पाया कि स्नान में शरीर का आयतन, उसके द्वारा हटाए गए पानी के बराबर होता है, यही विस्थापन का नियम है, यही वजह है कि जहाज़ डूबते नहीं, काश वह 1912 में यहाँ होते, टाइटैनिक ने उन्हें सोचने पर मजबूर कर दिया होता।

Archimedes said Eureka, Cos in English he weren't too aversed in, when he discovered that the volume of a body in the bath, is equal to the stuff it is immersed in, That is the law of displacement, Thats why ships don't sink, Its a shame he weren't around in 1912, The Titanic would have made him think.

आज, लांग लांग मेरे पसंदीदा क्लासिकल पियानोवादकों में से एक हैं.... सालो पहले मैं आर्थर रुबिनस्टीन का बहुत बड़े प्रशंसक हुआ करता था, लेकिन इसमें कोई शक नहीं कि फ्रांज लिस्ट और फ्रेडरिक चोपिन भी शानदार पियानो वादक थे - हालाँकि उनके प्रदर्शन को सुनने का आज कोई जरिया नहीं है।

Today, Lan Lan is one of my favourite classical pianists.... Years ago I had a great admiration for Arthur Rubinstein but I have no doubt that Franz Liszt and Frederic Chopin were also fantastic piano players - though there is no way to listen to them when they were performing.

शुरुआती पाठकों का यह मानना था कि बुक ऑफ़ मॉर्मन के लोग उत्तर और दक्षिण अमेरिका में न्यू यॉर्क के उत्तरी हिस्से से लेकर चिली तक फैले हुए थे। लेकिन पाठ का बारीकी से अध्ययन करने पर पता चलता है कि इतने बड़े भौगोलिक विस्तार को सही नहीं ठहराया जा सकता।

Early readers assumed the Book of Mormon people ranged up and down North and South America from upstate New York to Chili. A close reading of the text reveals it cannot sustain such an expansive geography.

क्या समय-समय पर इराक और अल-क़ायदा के बीच संपर्क थे? हाँ, बातचीत करने की कोशिशें की गई थीं। हमें संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिका के हितों के खिलाफ किसी भी तरह के अभियान को अंजाम देने के किसी भी प्रयास में आपसी मिलीभगत का कोई सबूत नहीं मिला।

Were there contacts over time between Iraq and al-Qaeda? Yes, there were efforts made to communicate. We found no evidence of collaboration in any effort to mount any kind of operation against the United States' interests.

शायद साइकिल की त्रासदी यह है कि इसका आविष्कार कार के बहुत करीब के समय में हुआ था। इतिहास के क्रम में, पैडल की ताकत ठीक से शुरू भी नहीं हो पाई थी कि दहन इंजन आ गया और न केवल सड़कों पर कब्जा कर लिया, बल्कि मशीनों के प्रति हमारा दृष्टिकोण भी बदल दिया। हम भूल चुके हैं कि पैडल की ताकत ऊर्जा का एक शक्तिशाली रूप है।

Possibly the tragedy of the bicycle is that it was invented too close in time to the car. In the historical scheme, pedal power hardly got under way before the combustion engine appeared and, not only took over the roads, but changed our view of machines. We've forgotten that pedal power is a potent form of energy.

मैं हमेशा से येती का बहुत बड़ा फैन रहा हूँ, सिर्फ़ इसलिए क्योंकि एवरेस्ट और उसे फ़तेह करने वाले न्यूज़ीलैंड के सर एडमंड हिलेरी से मेरा एक अलग ही जुड़ाव रहा है। एवरेस्ट पर चढ़ाई के बाद उन्होंने वास्तव में येती की तलाश में एक अभियान चलाया था, हालांकि उन्हें येती तो नहीं मिला, लेकिन उन्हें एक पैरों का निशान और बालों के कुछ नमूने मिले जो बाद में किसी बकरी या वैसे ही किसी जानवर के निकले।

I've always been a big fan of the Yeti, simply because I have an affiliation to Everest - who was the New Zealander, Sir Edmund Hillary, the guy that conquered it. He actually went on an expedition after the Everest climb to look for the Yeti, and they didn't find it, but they found a footprint and some hair samples that turned out to be a goat or something.

बीसवीं शताब्दी से पहले का सिद्धांत यह था कि दुनिया की सारी नौकरियाँ हक के तौर पर पुरुषों की हैं, और केवल पुरुष ही स्वभाव से मजदूरी के अधिकारी हैं। यदि कोई महिला घरेलू कामकाज के अलावा पैसे कमाती थी, तो इसका कारण यह था कि किसी दुर्भाग्य ने उसे पुरुषों के संरक्षण से वंचित कर दिया था।

The theory [before the twentieth century] ... was that all the jobs in the world belonged by right to men, and that only men were by nature entitled to wages. If a woman earned money, outside domestic service, it was because some misfortune had deprived her of masculine protection.

मरीन कॉर्प्स का अनुमान है कि लगभग एक से दो सौ महिलाएँ इन कामों में जाने की इच्छा रखती हैं—जो कि इन पदों का लगभग 2 प्रतिशत है। फिर भी, यह एक ऐतिहासिक कदम है। सेना के इतिहास में यह शायद अब तक का सबसे बड़ा सांस्कृतिक बदलाव है, जो शायद 1948 में सेना में नस्लीय भेदभाव खत्म करके अश्वेत सैनिकों को अलग इकाइयों में रखने की प्रथा समाप्त करने से भी बड़ा बदलाव है।

The Marines estimate that roughly a hundred or 200 women will be interested in going into these jobs - roughly 2 percent of those jobs. Still, this is historic. It's a biggest cultural change in the military maybe ever, probably bigger than integrating the force back in 1948 when African-Americans were no longer segregated in separate units.

शरीर को एक दावत के रूप में देखने का यह विचार, ग्यूसेप आर्किम्बोल्दो से शुरू होता है, फिर गुंटर ब्रस जैसे वियना के कलाकारों तक पहुँचता है, और फिर निश्चित रूप से साल्वाडोर डाली आते हैं, और फिर बहुत बाद में, मरीना एब्रामović और उले (Ulay), इटली में अपनी नग्न चित्रों की श्रृंखला के साथ आते हैं। यह एक निरंतर चलने वाली वैचारिक बातचीत है। मेरेट ओपेनहाइम की कला में कुछ भी क्रूर नहीं था।

This idea of the body as a feast, it stems from Giuseppe Arcimboldo, moves to Viennese artists like Günter Brus, and then you have Salvador Dalí of course, then much later, Marina Abramović and Ulay, with their nude series in Italy. It's an ongoing conversation. There was nothing cruel about Méret's Oppenheim piece.

इसे दो अलग-अलग पहुलूओं के रूप में समझना सबसे अच्छा होगा - वे आपस में जुड़े तो हैं, लेकिन हर एक के अपने अलग हालात और गतिशीलता है। एक मुख्य अंतर यह है कि अब्येई एक विवादित क्षेत्र है। हम अभी भी नहीं जानते कि अब्येई दक्षिण सूडान के नए देश का हिस्सा बनेगा या फिर प्रभावी रूप से उत्तर सूडान का हिस्सा रहेगा। इसका फैसला जनवरी में एक जनमत संग्रह द्वारा किया जाना था; वह जनमत संग्रह कभी हुआ ही नहीं, इसलिए अब इसे राजनीतिक वार्ताओं के ज़रिए सुलझाया जा रहा है।

It's best to think of these as two things - they're related, but there's different dynamics going on with each of them. A key difference is Abyei is contested territory. We still do not know whether Abyei is going to belong to the new country of South Sudan or effectively the new country of Sudan, the northern part. That was supposed to be decided by a referendum in January; that referendum never happened, so it was being dealt with through political negotiations.

दक्षिण कोर्डोफ़ान कोई विवादित क्षेत्र नहीं है। यह उत्तर में है और उत्तर में ही रहेगा, जहाँ नूबा पहाड़ियाँ स्थित हैं। लोगों का मानना है कि 1990 के दशक में वहाँ जनसंहार हुआ था। नूबा लोग, जो कि उत्तर के ही निवासी हैं, उत्तर-दक्षिण युद्ध के दौरान दक्षिण के साथ लड़े थे। लेकिन उनके अपने व्यक्तिगत हित हैं, और दक्षिण के अलग होने के बाद भी वे उत्तर में ही रहेंगे।

Southern Kordofan is not a disputed territory. It is, and will remain, in the north, where the Nuba Mountains are. People believe there was a genocide there in 1990s. The Nuba, who are northerners, fought with the south in the north-south war. But they have their own individual interests, and they will remain in the north after the south splits.

दक्षिण सूडान वास्तव में अब्येई को पाना चाहता है; क्षेत्र में उनका एक मुख्य समर्थक वर्ग रहता है जिसका मानना है कि अब्येई दक्षिण का ही हिस्सा है। दक्षिण सूडान की सरकार में उच्च पदों पर ऐसे कई लोग हैं जो अब्येई से ताल्लुक रखते हैं, इसलिए दक्षिण सूडान के लिए इस मामले से बस पीछे हट जाना काफी कठिन है।

The south really wants Abyei; they have a core constituency who reside in the area who believe that Abyei belongs to the south. There are a number of those sons of Abyei in high positions of government in South Sudan, so it's pretty hard for South Sudan to just walk away.
