Meanwhile....: India's answer to Oprah?
http://vanisays.blogspot.com/2008/04/rose-is-rose-is.html
Truth, lies and everything in between. Thursday, April 10, 2008. India's answer to Oprah? History, at times, is made in the most unpretentious ways. Looks like, in its own way, Vijay TV, is setting new benchmarks and breaking barriers with the launch of Ippadikku Rose, a talk show to be hosted by Rose, billed as India's first transgender celebrity host. Would have us believe. Watch her in action. And you would not be able to hold back your hurrahs. Posted by Vani Doraisamy. 9:18 AM, July 26, 2008. My Vis...

Truth, lies and everything in between. Tuesday, July 15, 2008. And now, the fish massage has become upmarket, commercialised and salon-ified. Imagine having to pay Rs 500 upwards for half an hour of fish pedicure in a posh boutique. I remember rolling my eyes in mock surprise when I heard of something similar being offered in Sentosa Island, Singapore. And now, the fish have come closer home to nibble. Some fishy affair, this!

Truth, lies and everything in between. Monday, June 18, 2007. Look at what Wikipedia has done to our very own gilli-danda dance. Don't miss the section on Outfits and.

Truth, lies and everything in between. Sunday, July 27, 2008. A New York love story. For those of us weaned on endless reels of filmy rail-gaadi romances, here is. A New York version. A train, a girl, a boy. Love at first sight. Girl disappears after train journey. Love-sick boy searches all over the city for her. Inspires everyone around to play Cupid. Finds girl. Starry romance. Everyone lives happily ever after. Ends. Right? When 21-year-old web designer, Patrick Moberg, hosted this site. Distilled in...

Truth, lies and everything in between. Monday, December 24, 2007. Slice of the Big Apple. Now the rovin' gambler he was very bored. He was tryin' to create a next world war. He found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor. He said I never engaged in this kind of thing before. But yes I think it can be very easily done. We'll just put some bleachers out in the sun. And have it on Highway 61. Much has changed, much hasn't. Cogito, ergo sum. Whatever. Doesnt matter, maa'm. British security is not the ...

Truth, lies and everything in between. Saturday, September 15, 2007. Is there any other delicacy in the world that even remotely compares with those little, perfectly shaped widgets? The lusciousness of the sweet ones (their bellies bursting with the exciting promise of jaggery and coconut scrapings and the intangible whiff of cardamom), the wafery spiceness of the savoury variant, the near-perfection of the white wrap.nothing even comes near. They are a different story, altogether. It all comes, I guess...

Truth, lies and everything in between. Sunday, June 29, 2008. If, as they say, those that the gods love die young, then Vinay Chakravarthy. Must surely be amongst the ones that have an abundance of celestial grace. In the few months that I have been living in NY, very few lives have touched me as deeply as that of this 29-year-old, who died in Boston earlier this week, after having looked death smilingly in the eye for nearly two years and never blinked. Though Sameer had died only a few weeks before I a...

http://vanisays.blogspot.com/2008/07/journey-within.html
Truth, lies and everything in between. Tuesday, July 22, 2008. Ever since last week, I have stopped wondering how Alice must have felt like when she fell down the rabbit் hole. I was on a journey unlike any other, exploring a destination where no one had ever landed before: my own mind, the unbearable lightness of my own being. The 26-acre Vipassana meditation retreat, near Thiruneermalai. Two years back, I had been to the place to have. An interview with S.N. Goenka. Himself would have had no trouble ac...

RANJITHA'S BLOG: Dark shadows on the mind
http://ranjithagunasekaran.blogspot.com/2010/05/dark-shadows-on-mind.html
We live in a beautiful world. Monday, May 10, 2010. Dark shadows on the mind. Dark shadows on the mind. How Punitha survives a daily battle with an illness she now understands. Three months later, she attempted suicide and died days later in a hospital the age of 46. “We deeply regret it now, our lack of understanding and support for her. We had heard she was seeing a psychiatrist, but at that time we did not know she had an illness,” Punitha says. As she spent more and more sleepless nights and her beha...
