In our Cover Story, we take a close look at celebrations at the ‘Shakti Pithas’ revered in Odia tradition and try to get a better under standing of the divine traditions that come alive during Dussehra and Durga Puja. Food has a close association with festivals across the country and Durga Puja is no ex ception. Our Food and Wine section captures the essence of the festive season by zeroing on recipes of some Odia delicacies that come with a slice of culture as well tradition. From fish preparations to traditional pancakes, Durga Puja is known for these special offerings to the Goddess. In City Sports, we look at 10 athletes from the state who are all set to participate in the Indian Open U23 Athletics meet. The section also fea tures the junior women’s and sub-junior men’s hockey championships, where the teams from Sundargarh stamped their authority by winning both the titles. Our City Fashion section takes a look at a trend that is fast becoming the norm for much of today’s younger generation - thrift shopping. Once looked down upon, second-hand clothes now seem to have lost the stigma they were long associated with. Our special feature brings you the low-down on thrift shopping as we ex plore how the trend is being seen as a welcome shift towards eco-friendly and sustainable fashion. We also speak to some youngsters to understand what draws them to thrift shop ping. Odisha has a rich heritage of folk and tribal songs and singer Susmita Das has been on a mission to promote them on the global stage. We catch up with her in Screen Shots as she talks about what inspired her to embark on this praiseworthy journey and her plans for the fu ture. The festive season is here and so are some much-anticipated Ollywood releases! Screen Shots takes a quick look at the latest Odia films lined up for the big screen, ranging from thrill ers and a social drama to a moving tribute to a legend of music. If you were impressed by the rich tapestry of emotions that Pixar’s 2015 release ‘Inside Out’ wove around its central character, there is something you can look forward to. Its sequel, ‘Inside Out 2’ is now streaming on OTT plat forms and City Flix brings you a review of what to expect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Union Budget 2024-25 presented in Parliament on July 24, 2024 has a sharp focus on employment, skilling, and manufacturing. The comprehensive strategy outlined in the Union Budget by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman lays a clear emphasis on driving economic growth while ensuring social welfare and bringing about inclusive development at the same time. Our Cover Story for this edition breaks down the budget document to explain what it holds for the future of the country. When it comes to safeguarding the rich cultural heritage and legacy of western Odisha, there is one person whose efforts over the years have the potential to inspire many others. In City Lights, we turn the spotlight on Rajat Kumar Panigrahi of Nuapada district and his stellar contribution towards preservation of the region's indigenous art forms. July 14, 2024 will go down as a day of considerable significance in the contemporary history of Lord Jagannath's Sri Mandir in Puri. The temple's sacred treasury, the Ratna Bhandar, was opened after 46 years. City Lights brings you all the information about the entire process as well as the history of the Ratna Bhandar. Eco-friendly substitutes to plastic are all the buzz in an era where sustainability is becoming a dire necessity. Not surprisingly, there are several examples of individuals as well as organisations coming forward with their own contribution to a circular economy. City Biz catches up with an entrepreneur whose start-up produces a wide range of sustainable items. Attending the 26th session of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP 26) in November, 2021, India announced its target to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2070. In line with this commitment, India set up the National Green Hydrogen Mission in January 2023. A special feature sheds more light on this initiative and its critical role. The rainy season is a challenging phase when it comes to skincare, with humidity, wet spells, and fluctuating temperatures all acting as negative contributing factors. In Fashion & Beauty, we bring you some useful tips to keep the monsoon blues at bay. Odisha is renowned for its heritage and culture as well as its natural beauty. There is, however, another aspect about the state that is not talked about as often as it deserves to be - its cuisine. We bring you some not -to-be-missed monsoon recipes so that you can sit back and enjoy the rains with your favourite dish!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The simple wedding ceremonies of yore have given way to ‘events’ that are as mind-boggling in their choice of themes as they are extravagant when it comes to the costs involved. And this begs the question… is it really necessary to go so over the top, often at the expense of traditions and at the risk of incurring wastage? Our Cover Story for this edition takes a long, hard look at this trend and tries to come up with some answers. For long decades, football struggled to find a place in the minds of India’s sports lovers, overshadowed as it was by the more glamorous and mass-appeal-generating game of cricket. This has changed, albeit slowly, in recent years with a new breed of footballers led by the iconic Sunil Chhetri trying to power Indian football to new heights. In City Sports, we take a look at some key factors responsible for this transformation, including the institutional support that is being provided by the government of Odisha. Winters in Odisha may not be as extreme as in some of India’s northern states but the season still brings with it its share of skin problems. In a special feature in City Health, we talk to experts to bring you some practical skincare tips to deal with this weather. Amid a long list of negatives and controversies, it is refreshing to see winds of positive change weep through the Odia entertainment industry, guided by some immensely talented artists from different disciplines. One such individual is Lipika Singh Darai, who was among the 10 chosen for the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Breakthrough India. Read more about Lipika and the BAFTA initiative in Screen Shots. A recent musical collaboration between Odia and Assamese artists not only set foottapping but also turned the spotlight firmly on singer Achurjya Borpatra. In Screen Shots, he tells us how the project took shape; he also shares his joy at how the song has touched so many hearts in both states. The section also features the latest series of Savdhaan India, a TV show based on real-life crime stories, which is being shot in Odisha with cast and crew from the state. Arjya Patnaik, who is spearheading this initiative, talks to us about what inspired her to bring the shoot to Odisha.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Another year has come to an end, leaving behind a kaleidoscope of memories. For Odisha, 2023 was an eventful year when it came to governance, development, sports, and business. Our Cover Story for this edition brings you snapshots of the year’s significant policy decisions, major achievements in sports, landmarks from the corporate & business world, and important happenings in the Odia entertainment industry. Located in close proximity to buildings that seat the ‘who’s-who’ of Odisha’s power establishment, the Bhubaneswar Club has over the years evolved as an enduring symbol of socializing and celebration. With a history of 74 years, the club not only boasts of a rich legacy but also stands tall as a symbol of contemporary urban life. In City Tales, we walk you through all that the club stands for. Bhubaneswar was recently witness to a memorable congregation of vintage motor vehicles that reflected the glory, beauty, and craftsmanship of an era gone by. The inaugural Odisha Concours D’Elegance saw the participation of 50 eye-catching vintage cars from all over the country. Read all about this one-of-a-kind event in City Lights. A New Year brings with it new beginnings as well as new resolutions that are meant to set the tone for the next 12 months. City Lights brings to you a special feature tracing the origins of New Year resolutions and speaking to people from different walks of life to figure out the practice means to them. December 1, 2023 will be remembered for a film that not only created a storm at the box office but also sparked off an intense debate that shows no signs of dying down soon. ‘Animal’, the multi-lingual blockbuster, has received flak for normalizing misogyny and its controversial portrayal of gender dynamics. In Screen Shots, we talk to some prominent names from the Odia entertainment industry on the ongoing debate that has brought with it its own share of polarization and toxicity. Another issue that has become a matter of debate in recent days is that of paid menstrual leave for women. The issue has taken centre stage once again after Union Minister for Women and Child Development Smriti Irani expressed her opposition to the concept on the grounds that it could lead to discrimination against women in the workforce. In City Beat, we reach out to people for their views on the subject

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The incidence of cancer has seen a surge in recent years as more and more people come under its vice-like grip, particularly in the urban areas. Never has there been a greater need for concerted action to combat this deadly disease than now. With February 4 being observed as World Cancer Day, our Cover Story for this edition highlights some critical facets of the fight against the disease that is one of the leading causes of deaths globally. We speak with senior medical professionals with domain knowledge and expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer as well as the care of patients to bring you the big picture. The current month will also see the celebration of a technology and a medium that was identified as an important means of information and entertainment much before television and the internet changed the landscape completely. Yes, we are talking about the humble yet ubiquitous radio. On World Radio Day (February 13), we explore the relevance as well as the utility of radio in today’s digital era. He has seen action from close quarters in his days as a doctor with the Indian Army and would have doubtless saved many lives during his career. Recently, however, it was the turn of a Good Samaritan to come to the rescue of this Army veteran when he met with an accident while returning from Puri to Bhubaneswar during a cycling expedition. Read all about it in City Tales. This edition also brings to you the moving story of a dancer who is keeping the memory of her late husband alive. Maya Das, wife of renowned actor Ajit Das, who has continued the theatre festival started by her husband, talks to us about how she is taking a rich legacy forward. In Screen Shots, we feature an Odia film that has tried to look at the issue of gender equality through a different lens in order to provoke a discussion on what men go through. In a free-wheeling chat, director Jiit Chakraborty talks to us about what inspired him to make ‘Dear Purusha’. We also speak to some other experts and activists for their take on the subject. In CityFlix, a new section dedicated to reviewing global cinema, brings you a preview of an interesting Tamil film that deals with a problem that has become part and parcel of urban living – parking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faith, practice, devotion, and celebration. These are some of the abiding realities that have kept societies glued together since time immemorial. In Odisha, nothing illustrates this better than the holy month of Kartika. From Deepawali, Gajalaxmi Puja, and Kartika Purnima to the popular Balijatra festivities, this month has something to cherish for all. Our Cover Story for this edition is a comprehensive walk-through of everything that this month is associated with. When it comes to evolving fashion trends, nothing perhaps comes close to the passion people have had for hair colour as a means of expressing themselves. From the plants, herbs, and metals used in ancient times to the chemical-based dyes that are in vogue these days, the world has seen them all. Over the past decades, the trend of celebrities using hair dyes has gradually caught on with other people as well. City Fashion brings you a special feature on hair dyes, including some useful dos and don’ts. The success of Chandrayaan-3, India’s mission to the Moon, has again turned the spotlight on the technological advances which have helped put the country on the global space map. In recent years, the private sector has played the crucial role of an enabler by turning the Indian Space Research Organisation’s ambitious plans into reality. City Tech takes a close look at the evolution of the space technology industry and the role of startups, including those from Odisha, in India’s impressive space forays. On October 17, 2023, the Supreme Court of India delivered a much-anticipated judgement while addressing the issue of same-sex marriage and highlighted the need for the legislature to bring in necessary laws on this. We break down the judgement, and what it means for the LGBTQ+ community, in City Beat. It takes a very special talent to not only stride across decades but also successfully straddle diverse domains like acting, writing lyrics, and composing music. Swaroop Naik, who passed away last month, did just that as he graduated from acting in films from the early 1960s on[1]wards to establishing himself as a renowned lyricist and music composer in the coming years. In Screen Shots, we talk to those who worked with him as we pay tribute to the legend. Elsewhere in this edition, City Sports discusses why the 2023 Men’s Cricket World Cup does not feel the same as earlier; City Green takes up the issue of veganism.

Book excerpt: Author, activist, and TED speaker Ashton Applewhite has written a rousing manifesto calling for an end to discrimination and prejudice on the basis of age. In our youth obsessed culture, we’re bombarded by media images and messages about the despairs and declines of our later years. Beauty and pharmaceutical companies work overtime to convince people to purchase products that will retain their youthful appearance and vitality. Wrinkles are embarrassing. Gray hair should be colored and bald heads covered with implants. Older minds and bodies are too frail to keep up with the pace of the modern working world and olders should just step aside for the new generation. Ashton Applewhite once held these beliefs too until she realized where this prejudice comes from and the damage it does. Lively, funny, and deeply researched, This Chair Rocks traces her journey from apprehensive boomer to pro-aging radical, and in the process debunks myth after myth about late life. Explaining the roots of ageism in history and how it divides and debases, Applewhite examines how ageist stereotypes cripple the way our brains and bodies function, looks at ageism in the workplace and the bedroom, exposes the cost of the all-American myth of independence, critiques the portrayal of elders as burdens to society, describes what an all-age-friendly world would look like, and offers a rousing call to action. It’s time to create a world of age equality by making discrimination on the basis of age as unacceptable as any other kind of bias. Whether you’re older or hoping to get there, this book will shake you by the shoulders, cheer you up, make you mad, and change the way you see the rest of your life. Age pride! “Wow. This book totally rocks. It arrived on a day when I was in deep confusion and sadness about my age. Everything about it, from my invisibility to my neck. Within four or five wise, passionate pages, I had found insight, illumination, and inspiration. I never use the word empower, but this book has empowered me.” —Anne Lamott, New York Times bestselling author

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ode to systems engineers—whose invisible work undergirds our life—and an exploration of the wicked problems they tackle. Our world is filled with pernicious problems. How, for example, did novice pilots learn to fly without taking to the air and risking their lives? How should cities process mountains of waste without polluting the environment? Challenges that tangle personal, public, and planetary aspects—often occurring in health care, infrastructure, business, and policy—are known as wicked problems, and they are not going away anytime soon. In linked chapters focusing on key facets of systems engineering—efficiency, vagueness, vulnerability, safety, maintenance, and resilience—engineer Guru Madhavan illuminates how wicked problems have emerged throughout history and how best to address them in the future. He examines best-known tragedies and lesser-known tales, from the efficient design of battleships to a volcano eruption that curtailed global commerce, and how maintenance of our sanitation systems constitutes tikkun olam, or repair of our world. Braided throughout is the uplifting tale of Edwin Link, an unsung hero who revolutionized aviation with his flight trainer. In Link’s story, Madhavan uncovers a model mindset to engage with wickedness. An homage to society’s innovators and maintainers, Wicked Problems offers a refreshing vision for readers of all backgrounds to build a better future and demonstrates how engineering is a cultural choice—one that requires us to restlessly find ways to transform society, but perhaps more critically, to care for the creations that already exist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth look at Boston's Prudential Center and what its story reveals about the evolution of the modern American city The Prudential Center anchors the Boston skyline with its tall, gray tower. It is also a historical beacon, representing a midcentury moment when insurance companies such as Prudential were particularly aware of how their physical presence and civic engagement reflected upon their intangible product: financial security. Looking to New York's Rockefeller Center, the creators of the Prudential Center aspired to use real estate development as a tool toward civic achievement, reinvigorating central Boston and integrating a large complex of buildings with new infrastructure for the automobile. Now available in paperback, this award-winning book tells the full story of “The Pru,” placing it in the political, economic, and architectural contexts of the period, and providing new insights into urban renewal in postwar America.
