Nepse sheds 3.11 points

REPUBLICA
KATHMANDU, May 25: The domestic stock market index, which scaled to two-week high of 500.23 points on Tuesday, ended the week at six-day low led by fall in prices of banking stocks.

Nepal Stock Exchange (Nepse) index, which opened at 499.99 points on Sunday, fell 3.11 points, or 0.62 percent, over the week to close at 496.88 points on Thursday -- the last trading day of the week -- with banking sector underpinning the slide. [More]

  REFLECTION The newspeak of neocons & republican high  
  BY CK LAL  
 
Development is attainment of a more stable, which inter alia implies egalitarian, stage. The newspeak defines
development as expansion and growth.

In Hindu mythologies, there is no record of language of Asuras, Danavs and Daityas. Collectively referred to as Rakshasas in post-Vedic literature, they probably spoke the language of the place where they lived. Rooted to the soil, Rakshasas had little need to invent too many symbolic Shabdas (words) that often conceal more than what they reveal. The power of Vak (combination of gesture, facial expression and intonations of sound) was sufficient for them to express, inform or exchange ideas. Devas were itinerant and needed to be daring and devious to survive in different surrounding. They invented a language where words are all that matter. In Sanskrit, the Shabda is Brahma (the Supreme) and the order of subject, verb and object doesn’t matter at all: There is no difference between Home go I, I go home, go home I, go I home, or whatever sequence one can think of.
