READ| Martyr's Day (Shaheed Diwas) 2023: Date, History, Significance and Why is it Celebrated in India On 30 January Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated by Nathuram Godse and so, this day is observed as Martyr's Day or Shaheed Diwas.

The abundance of food in the United States-enough calories to meet the needs of every man, woman, and child twice over-has a downside. In this engrossing exposé, Marion Nestle goes behind the scenes to reveal how the competition really works and how it affects our health.

For two decades those lectures served as the basis for Nabokov’s teaching, first at Wellesley and then at Cornell, as he introduced undergraduates to the delights of great fiction. In the 1940s, when Vladimir Nabokov first embarked on his academic career in the United States, he brought with him hundreds of original lectures on the authors he most admired.
