The Dangers in Blogging

Cyberstalking is a new phenomenon that allows anonymous online stalkers to prowl for victims. Online bloggers traditionally provide personal details about their lives. As a result, many women that blog are becoming victims. Most people are concerned about children on the Internet and set up rigorous posting guidelines for children, adolescents, and teenagers, but few adults heed the warnings and often do not consider that they too can be targeted.

Females, in particular, should be cautious when circumnavigating the blogosphere. If you are a blogger or contemplating an online journal, consider these tips to protecting your identity:

Maruti Dzire new vs old: price, engine, features comparison

With prices for the new Maruti Suzuki Dzire revealed – they start at Rs 6.79 lakh and go up to Rs 10.14 lakh – it’s time to see exactly what the new model offers over its predecessor. The generation change brings more than a few design changes outside and inside, far more equipment and an even more frugal engine. Let’s dive in.

Maruti Dzire new vs old design

Maruti Dzire new vs old dimensions
New DzireOld Dzire
Length (mm)39953995
Width (mm)17351735
Height (mm)15251515
Wheelbase (mm)24502450
Ground clearance (mm)163163
Wheels & tyres185/65 R15185/65 R15
Boot space (litres)382378
Kerb weight (kg)920-1025880-995

While the overall silhouette is more or less the same, with the sloping roofline and almost typical three-box design, the new Dzire sports a much more mature-looking face. Unlike its predecessor, there’s almost nothing that links the new Dzire to its hatchback counterpart.

Slim, angular LED headlights have replaced the projector units (that came with LED daytime running lamps). The new black grille hexagonal grille is bigger than before; it has six horizontal slats, with the highest one featuring a piano black and chrome finish and a prominent Suzuki logo in the centre. There is a bit of space between the headlights and the fog lamps, which, on higher-spec variants, will be LED units.

Maruti Dzire new vs old exterior

New 15-inch alloy wheels, along with reshaped front and rear fenders, help the Dzire look fresh, and at the rear, there are new squarish tail-lights with horizontal, tri-arrow-shaped LED light signatures. There’s an almost prominent boot spoiler, and the lower part of the rear bumper has a sporty-looking diffuser-like design.

Compared to the outgoing model, the new Dzire has nearly identical dimensions, though it is 10mm taller at 1,525mm, has a slightly larger boot and is also about 30-40kg heavier, depending on the variant. Additionally, the new Dzire is available in seven exterior finishes, of which Alluring Blue, Gallant Red and Nutmeg Brown colours were not available with the older car.

Maruti Dzire new vs old interior

While the fourth-gen Dzire shares quite a lot with the Swift on the inside, it’s quite a change compared to the outgoing compact sedan. The dashboard has a more sophisticated, textured and layered look, with a floating touchscreen taking centre stage. The instrument cluster also gets new dials and a new MID. There are vastly different controls for the auto AC and redesigned AC vents.

The biggest changes inside the cabin are to the Dzire’s features list, which is quite a bit longer than its predecessor’s. There’s the larger 9-inch touchscreen, a segment-first powered sunroof and a 360-degree camera, along with cruise control, a wireless charger and the Suzuki Connect in-car connectivity suite.

Maruti Dzire new vs old interior

As for safety, the new Dzire has the distinction of being the first Maruti to get a 5-star Global NCAP crash test rating. Unlike its predecessor, which managed a 2-star GNCAP rating, all variants of the newer model get six airbags as standard. The other bits, such as ABS, ESP, ISOFIX anchors and hill-hold assist continue.

Fuel efficiency^24.79/25.71kpl22.41/22.61kpl33.73km/kg31.12km/kg

^ARAI-rated fuel-efficiency figure

Under the new Dzire’s bonnet is the new Z12E petrol engine that debuted in the Swift. The older model had the K-Series DualJet engine, which was a four-cylinder 1.2-litre unit producing 90hp and 113Nm of torque. When seen in the light of the new engine’s outputs – 82hp and 112Nm – the older model was more powerful. The 5-speed manual and 5-speed AMT gearbox options are still available.

On the other hand, the new three-cylinder 1.2-litre Z Series engine is far more frugal than its predecessor. The new Dzire is rated at 24.79kpl in manual form and 25.71kpl in AMT guise, which is an increase of 2.38kpl and 3.1kpl over the outgoing model.

Maruti Dzire new vs old engine

As is usually the case with Maruti’s line-up, the new Dzire also gets CNG-powered variants. The same 1.2-litre engine makes 69.75hp and 101.8Nm in the CNG version and delivers 33.73km/kg, which is an increase of 2.61km/kg over the third-gen Dzire.

Maruti Dzire new vs old price

Maruti Dzire new vs old prices (in Rs, lakh)
New Dzire*Old Dzire
Petrol-MT6.79-9.696.57-8.89
Petrol-AMT8.24-10.147.99-9.39
CNG-MT8.74-9.848.44-9.12

*Introductory prices valid until December 31

Considering the number of changes, the Rs 22,000 more you pay for the new entry-level Dzire over its predecessor seems justified. Similarly, the Rs 75,000 extra for the top-spec version would also make sense, given the number of premium features now available in the compact sedan. Do note that the new Dzire’s prices are introductory and will increase from January 2025 onwards.

The time has come to reimagine college textbooks for the modern digital era

Vinay K. Chaudhri, The Hechinger Report, Nov 13, 2024

This is an idea straight from the 50s but expect to see more of the same as companies wrestle with how to make their publications relevant in the age of AI. Vinay K. Chaudhri beghins with a reaffirmation of the importance of textbooks (as "a carefully curated body of knowledge... nearly 100 percent accurate... (and) the view of an expert educator"). Needed now, though, is "authoring textbooks so that their concepts can be read as computer code." How? Back to the 50s - a controlled vocabulary. "Textbooks, using the discipline of knowledge engineering, can support the curation, preservation and learning of all forms of human knowledge." Next up? I guess it would have to be the unification of the sciences.

Are you Chief Blogging Officer Material?

Government is already rife with chiefs, why not one more? HighBeam Research, Inc. has set the pace by announcing today the appointment of Christopher Locke as Chief Blogging Officer (CBO). Looks like the role of CBO is a pace setter who creates a buzz about the company products and enlists others to blog the cause. Ironically, the announcement came in the form of a (oh, so 20th century) press release.

HighBeam is looking for bloggers interested in exclusive use of its new "blog this document" tools and free access to the company's premium archives of over 3,000 print publications for adding depth and historical background to virtually any subject. HighBeam, under the direction of Chairman and CEO Patrick Spain, is the recent amalgamation two paid content sites (eLibrary and Encyclopedia.com) and a meta-search site, Researchville.com.

Locke says, "The HighBeam database of 33 million articles going back almost 25 years is the best resource I've found for adding historical depth of focus to the sort of stuff I write about. Any blogger who wants to get at the trends and issues underlying today's headlines will immediately see the same benefit I did. And their readers will too. I'm turned on at the prospect of making the HighBeam Research content and tools more accessible to the blogging world."

I don't think Highbeam will need to look too far for volunteers. Chris' own Chief Blogging Officer blog, offers a preview of how you can turn your own ordinary blog musings into a Blogipedia.

According to ClickZ News, HighBeam plans to begin offering its new blog content tool in late January or early February for $19.95 a month or $99 a year.
