BEARTOWN
Everyone has a thousand wishes before a tragedy, but just one afterward. ...
The #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Man Called Ove returns with a dazzling, profound novel about a small town with a big dream—and the price required to make it come true.
People say Beartown is finished. A tiny community nestled deep in the forest, it is slowly losing ground to the ever encroaching trees. But down by the lake stands an old ice rink, built generations ago by the working men who founded this town. And in that ice rink is the reason people in Beartown believe tomorrow will be better than today
Being responsible for the hopes of an entire town is a heavy burden, and the semi-final match is the catalyst for a violent act that will leave a young girl traumatized and a town in turmoil. Accusations are made and, like ripples on a pond, they travel through all of Beartown, leaving no resident unaffected.
Bear Town by Fredrik Backman explores the complex relationships, gender roles, politics, voices and whispers that go hand in hand with life in a small town.
Much like the people of Bear Town, when you finish the story, you will laugh, you will cry, and in the end you will be left needing to know more
Taliban storms Kabul
The Taliban stormed Kabul’s abandoned Norwegian embassy complex to destroy bottles of wine and rip apart now banned children’s DVDs by hand.
This photo shows a Taliban fighter trying to tear apart a DVD with the Norwegian children’s film “Kurt Blir Grusom” (“Kurt becomes cruel”), which is about a forklift driver who turns evil.
The Taliban have quietly announced the return of an infamous government ministry that in the 1990s deployed patrols of men with whips to ensure women adhered to rules on not working outside the home or the mandatory wearing of burkas.
Despite promises they would not enforce the same draconian social rules the return of the Ministry for Propagation of Virtue and Prevention of Vice has done little to dispel concerns of a return to those days.
After Tuesday’s announcement of the new cabinet, the English translation released by Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid differed in a significant way from the Dari language release: the Vice ministry was the only ministry not translated into English, apparently because of its negative reputation from the 1990s.
“They’re bringing back the guys with the whips to make sure women wear burkas and don’t leave the house,” said a Western aid worker, who remains in Kabul and asked not be named for security reasons, of the notorious patrols which would enforce dress codes for men and women, enforce participation in public prayers and patrol for inappropriate contact between men and women.

Paul Alexander AKA The Man In The Iron Lung
The year 1952 is marked as a dreadful year in the U.S as it was terrified by the infamous life-threatening disease Polio (poliomyelitis) caused by the poliovirus. Paul Alexander( aged 6 yrs old) was playing in the backyard in a normal rainy day in the month of July when he got suddenly ill and ran inside his home to get his mum. She turned to him and looked at him thoroughly and said “Oh my God!!!Not my son”. Within a week he lost his ability to walk, breathe and swallow. When he was presented to the E.R, the doctor pronounced him dead but that is when his life changed. Another doctor rushed to the E.R and picked him up and took him to the O.R. He performed a tracheotomy (it’s a procedure in which a tube is surgically inserted through an incision in the lower part of the neck for mechanical respiration) and put him in the Iron Lung. An iron lung is a type of negative pressure ventilator which encloses most of a person’s body and varies the air pressure in the enclosed space to stimulate breathing.
He fought hard to beat the virus and never gave up due to which he came home after 18 months but nothing remained the same. He was paralyzed from the neck down and he couldn’t breathe without the iron lung. Paul did nearly all the normal things that a kid of his age does such as reading, watching TV, painting, writing. He even graduated with honours from high school but couldn’t make his way to the college as they rejected him saying he was way too crippled. After constantly nagging them for 2 years they finally agreed to admit him in the college but with two conditions. One was to get polio vaccine and the other was that a fraternity would be responsible for him. His dream was to become a lawyer and after working very hard he became one more accurate a very good one. To inspire people he also wrote his biography on his own. He is now 74 and is still fighting the virus, moreover he’s in high danger of contracting the Corona virus. Paul Alexander AKA The Man In The Iron Lung’s story inspires everyone that a disability cannot stop you from doing anything, it doesn’t get to decide your future nor you should be held back by it. Keep moving and never give up.
