Mischa Glenny's McMafia gives a chilling account of the Israel hub of human trafficking - though on the flesh trade. The illegal organ trade is strong in Israel - even harvested organs from dead Hezbollah types. Anyway, till the 1985 ban, India was a source of skeletons and "human materials&quo...

I remember the in-movie ad from Mel "Burn the Jews" Gibson's chick flick "What Women Want". You don’t stand in front of a mirror before a run…and wonder what the road will think of your outfit. You don’t have to listen to its jokes and pretend they’re funny. It would not be easie...

Arab Sheikhs used to "import" kids and lightly built teens from TSP as jockeys for their camel races. The lives of these young ones are living hell. Certain countries such as the UAE banned these officially but there are many who flout the law. Wonder if some of the Indian kids ended up in...

That Kala-Yavana guy had intrigued me since I was a kid. Perhaps the only really exotic foreign actor in the Itihasa-Puranas. A huge host from the west (cryptically "West of the Indus") IIRC marching right across other kingdoms towards Mathura to join Jarasandha's and Sisupala's forces. So...

Stuck at 80 bpm after a Half Marathon? That's not an un-TFTA heart rate - whats your resting heart rate then? I have RHR at around 50-60 and I get a nice decline from 140 (avg) to 60-70 after resting nearly hour after a 30-minute HIIT. I look forward to the day when I can meter 80-100 bpm after such...

The US under LBJ had fiddled with the Sentinel and Safeguard "Thin-Line Defense" system that were "solely" to protect their own silos and not the cities during a less-than-massive attack. Then thre was a move in the early 70s to have BMDs for protecting only NCAs! Now all these c...

Shekhar Gupta was the one that sneaked out that controversial photo of the ruined Akal Takht (despite the media clampdown) when he entered the complex the day after Op. Blue Star?

It has screwed up the country’s deterrence posture. Does it now? While there is a bit of information from US BMD-waalahs on why they should pursue BMD w.r.t to Deterrence Posture we haven't seen that level of (public domain) information of BMD in Indo-Pak (forget Indo-China for now) context. A lot ...

There was the sneaking in of Corn Syrup as "Corn Sugar" - which was thankfully shot down by the US Courts. The Big Food guys from Archer-Midland and Monsanto tried to ram in this thin edge of the wedge after the public image of corn syrup took a great hit. BTW, SDREs had been refining suga...

There is indeed a HUGE Social Media/Mainstream outburst (ML and even SDPI/YF types )against HM Ramesh Chennithala and CM Oomen Chandy - for "turning a blind eye on the Bordello that is Amritanandamayi Mutt" (Gayle Treadwell's apparent memoirs) and now this. Lotsa PS-ed images and tweets an...

Continuing of Rudradev's and Agnimitra's points, in Pakistan's case I am not so sure if we could make a distinction on where the ideological touchstone ends and where "immediate reality" (which is again perception based) begins. First of all we are not entirely sure if it's Army or Allah w...

Some people have Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease..... might have liver symptoms of an alcoholic even if they haven't taken a drop of the spirits. Them folks, if they start drinking on top of this NAFLD, are looking at a high chance of Cirrhosis before they hit 60.

In WB the BD infested Murshidabad and Raiganj have been taken by CPM apparently. In Kerala the CPM won two seats by around 6000 seats only and another seat was won only due to the Kasturirangan Report which set the Churches against the UDF. It means it is a clear rout of the CPM!

Just 43,000 more votes to be counted in Tvm.
