Mark has just posted about an incident that occurred a few days ago at one of Oula’s Gas Stations. According to the story and the pictures provided, an Indian worker suffering from 2nd to 3rd degree burns to his hand was forced to work, despite needing the time to rest in order to heal properly. I do not see how a company like Oula would have suffered any financial loses if they just allowed this poor man to rest for one week until his hands get better!

Please check out the story and witness just one example of acts of inhumane treatments occurring in our country.

This plug-in hybrid concept combines the three cars into a collective one!

A 500hp V8 mid-mounted motor is paired with two electric motors — one for each axle — giving the open two-seat 918 a total of 718hp, good for a 0-62 time of 3.2 seconds, a top-end speed of 198 mph. A seven-speed PDK transmission, a carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic body, powerful brakes, a bevy of driving modes. (Source: Uncrate)

I came across these photographs that were taken in India during the Festival of Color!

Holi 1 

The Festival of Color which is called Holi, is a popular Hindu spring festival that takes place in India, Nepal, Srilanka  and countries with large Hindu diaspora populations, such as Suriname, Guyana, South Africa, Trinidad, UK, USA, Mauritius, and Fiji. In West Bengal of India andBangladesh it is known as Dolyatra (Doul Jatra) or Basanta-Utsav (”spring festival”). The most celebrated Holi is that of the Braj region, in locations connected to the god Krishna: Mathura, Vrindavan, Nandagaon, and Barsana. These places have become tourist destinations during the festive season of Holi, which lasts here to up to sixteen days. (Source: Wikipedia)
