Collection of my thots. Friday, January 30, 2004. Me a strong proponet of vegetarianism. Not just in food, but also in lifestyle, I prefer leading a life as non-intrusive as possible towards animals. Just happened to notice a list. But I have seen Dalai Lama. For a person who calls himself the living Buddha, the incarnation of the Bodhisattva of Compassion, been a non-vegetarian is a disgrace.

Collection of my thots. Tuesday, March 20, 2007. Iqbal Saab - a very active person in various online music communities - died this morning of an heart attack. Since the time I have heard the news through the SKS/SJ music groups, I'm not able to reconcile myself to this news :-(. This is the tribute Naresh Khattar. Paid to Iqbal Saab while doing the hard job of breaking the news to the SKS community. If you are interested to know more about how active Iqbal-Saab was, check out his profile on multiply.

Collection of my thots. Saturday, March 24, 2007. Let Team India be. I guess the intensity of reactions after India's exit from the World Cup is quite easily predictable. However, I feel that we need not really create such a ruckus over what is finally just a sport. Okay, have passion for the game.even I do. I watched the complete match yesterday (okay, almost the complete match.I slept after the 8th wicket fell! And I do watch most of the matches, but then you still need to realize that itz just a sport.

Collection of my thots. Monday, March 19, 2007. Rein in the sport broadcasters! Anybody watching the cricket World Cup on SetMax will agree on the unnecessary hurry consistently shown by the Sony folks in cutting out the game to show the ads. I agree that Sony has paid ICC a huge amount. I guess itz time the Govt modifies the Sports Broadcasting Bill 2007. A rising tide lifts all boats. Posted by Karthik @ 10:51 PM.

Collection of my thots. Thursday, May 31, 2007. The Hindu and itz anti-Hindu bias. The Narendra Modi Govt. This week I noticed two more instances of The Hindu's biased reporting. In itz editorial on May-29. Hindu asks for a political president this time. The reason:. What a contrived way of mentioning that the next President should be from Congress! And of course, no criticizing the Left for not supporting Abdul Kalam the last time.after all, for The Hindu, the left is above criticisms! Yesterday's Hindu...

Collection of my thots. Wednesday, October 21, 2009. KSCA's explosive "detection device" exposed. Last week, while a Champions League match was about to begin, an explosive device detection equipment went-off. Triggering an alarm, and subsequently a controversy. Over the perceived targetting of Kashmiris. Some of the online forums that have called the bluff of ATSC are:. Http:/ www.skeptics.org.uk/. Http:/ www.randi.org/site/. Take the company's web-site. ATSC has a silly video of the equipment "used" in...

Collection of my thots. Wednesday, March 12, 2008. Is it ethical to make make your child deaf? A very thought-provoking article in today's Independent. On the right of a deaf couple to have a deaf child throgh IVF treatment. I'm astounded by this question: Can a deaf couple decide that they want the child to be deaf? Have we not been told since ages that deafness is a disability? Is it really as simple, and as equivalent, as been Jewish or black? The jury, in my mind, is still out on that.

Collection of my thots. Sunday, December 21, 2003. Ppl consider that subsidies r very uncommon in a capitalistic economy like US. This is a very wrong perception. In fact, the American Govt doles out a subsidy of abt $18 billion a yr on just agriculture, and this compared to the $10 billion per yr that the US provides as aid to poor countries! Http:/ www.commondreams.org/headlines02/0509-04.htm has some more facts on this. Shows the hyppocrisy of the rich countries. Posted by Karthik @ 12:47 AM 0 comments.

Collection of my thots. Sunday, January 24, 2010. Allegations on ATSC vindicated. About possible skeletons in KSCA's cupboard earlier. Now, UK govt has finally arrested. The Managing Director of ATSC. The charges against him? Simple, that his instrument cannot detect bombs! What is surprising is that he could avoid arrest for so long and keep selling his fraud instruments. Posted by Karthik @ 1:57 AM. Data Entry Job Paid Per Form Filled.
