    A finance startup in Bengaluru had a regulatory problem when new RBI rules put its business at risk. The board asked Mr. Sharma, a retired Indian government officer who had been an IAS officer for 35 years, for help. He brought together a team from several departments, made compliance processes more efficient, and talked to the authorities. But how was Mr. Sharma the only viable solution? He could do all of this because he knew a lot about regulations and was a calm leader. The startup not only followed the rules, but it also got ahead of the competition in just a few months.

    A New Chapter: The Superannuated Officer's Startup Journey Former IAS official with 30 years of government service, 64-year-old Mr. Sharma sips coffee in a busy co-working environment in Bengaluru while looking over the regulatory compliance strategy of a startup.

    [Completed] Ailis was expecting a simple night out for her last night on land. She'd go to a bar, do a little flirting, and go home to get some sleep before shipping off on a two-year ship deployment around the world with the Navy. She'd never planned to meet the love of her life, but from the first moment Mia smiled at her across the room, Ailis was sunk on her. A night of passion and falling in love was all they got before she had to sail away, not returning for years. Life moved on, but Ailis never forgot the woman who stole her heart. Six years and a career change later, Ailis finds herself face to face with Mia again, this time with a little boy with Ailis' ears and eyes. Will true love conquer all of the trials this life will throw at them? Or will it be a sinking ship?
