Soul of a citizen: living with conviction in a cynical time

Article Abstract:

Activism requires commitment on the part on those who agitate for causes they believe in. However, activists need not be absolutely virtuous. They need not be natural leaders either. All they need is conviction since this will allow them to keep their faith in their ideals at a time where cynicism prevails.

Are we alone in the universe?

Article Abstract:

The recent discovery of two new planets has intensified the debate over the possibility of life on other planets. It has tripled the number of worlds known to exist outside the solar system in which the earth belongs, and also suggests that the earth may not be as unique as widely believed.
