I guess many of lucky you have already watched the mega fashion event. But if you were unluckly then don't forget to watch HD show on STAR WORLD 31st December, 9:30 PM India.
I watched it on FTV world that my cable guys are hooking us with. FTV world is banned in India and they have FTV India version which actually sucks bigtime.. even the midnight hot is so fuzzy that it shouldn't even be marked PG... So in a way it is good to have FTV world.
Victoria's Secret is major Lingerie brand. Victoria's Secret was started in San Francisco, California, in 1977 by Stanford Graduate School of Business alumnus Roy Raymond, who felt embarrassed trying to purchase lingerie for his wife in a department store environment. He opened the first store at Stanford Shopping Center in Palo Alto, and quickly followed it with a mail-order catalog and three other stores.
Their fashion show has the trademark Angel wings, that's why their model who are selected few are always called as Angels... just like Playmates of Playboy magazine. Although it now refers to the brand's most visible spokeswomen (while the fashion show models are referred to as "Runway Angels"), the Angels started out as Victoria's Secret's lingerie line. The models featured in the original advertising campaign in 1997 were Helena Christensen, Karen Mulder, Daniela Pestova, Stephanie Seymour and Tyra Banks.
The ramp show had its beauty and with each girl walking being a supermodel makes it spectator's delight...this year the show was rocked with live performances of Katy Peryy and Akon... and the Akon's new single 'Angel' was just awesome..it seemed that it was written to be performed on that show only...
If you just see the Angel's walk the ramp in the video I am sharing, you will be just mesmerized.. These girls know they are world's most desired girls but then also the sincerity, confidence and the humbleness is just awesome.... and with the song on the background ..it made it truly spectacular....Lucky Akon :P
I hope you will like this video...and believe me you will love this song and needless to say you will love the Angels...

Rape and Capital punishment in India
For the last few days.. every channel in TV is fixed on one factor.. Rape and Molestation.. I just don't get it why in the name of heaven, these TV channels have to show an enactment of the scene..that is just gross and insulting....but the matter of molestation and Rape is needed to be addressed..
I don't know much about the psychology behind rape... but most of the time they victim and the rapist have a common connection..... The obsessive psychology of the person takes over and then he commits the social crime.. it normally occurs when they have a grudge on them or someone near them...
Most of the time it is family or frnds... I was made known of an instance that a girl was raped by her cousins and when she tried to speak against ..she was sold away... there are many instances of child abuse that occurs inside family with uncles and aunties touching young girls and boys inappropriately taking advantage of their innocence...and some time it moves up to sexual intercourse..as the kids don't know the things happening to them are not acceptable and thus they are form of rape even when they have a consent.. but most of the time it goes unreported or blocked off by the parents or solved within the family...
Another form is psychopathic.. where guy/guys pick up a girl for pleasure and then exploit her and then leave her..as she don't know their identity..no one is ever caught.. or the guys even when identified has some one sitting up on political ladder..that is the story behing most cases in India...and most of the time POLICE won't let you lodge the report as it will demolish their no crime record...
Obsession is the main cause.. followed by violent psychology both of them are mental problems.. women activists are fighting long for capital punishment.. that is the death sentence for rape..as many countries have this.. sometimes I feel India needs to have a capital punishment for this and a separate trial court where at least male lawyers don't ask the victim whether they enjoyed the session while they were being raped and which part they have been touch first so as to make the victim more traumatised and lesser witness worthy..
But the fact still remains..if India has capital punishment then most of the rape will result in murder of the girl.. as the girl who has been raped if gonna complain and they get a capital punishment why not remove the witness altogether.. and since there is no DNA database in India..so there is no chance to find a rapist among billion people...and then there is the false cases....where the girl plays victim to a consensual sex and convict someone whom they have grudge against...and this is not very unusual...just for info ... there is a clock of bruises which occurs during sex.. the if the bruises are in the women vagina in the region of 3 to 9 that is bottom half of the vagina if imagined as a clock then it is consensual sex and when it is in the upper half then it is a rape... and this is the main thing medical analysts determine...but what about statuary rape.. that is rape of girls who haven't turned 18... if it is a consensual ..one can't convict sumone and give a capital punishment..
So we need to have a system ready so that women in India stay safe and secured... I hope people do pay hid to this issue sooner before it becomes too late

Varanasi Blast : The facts and truth
Last tuesday 7/12, 2010, Sheetala ghat near Dasashwemadh ghat was rocked by an explosion that was heard as far as 5 kms from the blast site..The blast occured at 6: 30 PM when the famous Ganga aarti was going on..the time when at least 1000 devotees and tourist flock there to watch the ceremony. The bomb was hidden in a gap between the stairs..and the blast killed a 2 year old girl and made another one parentless. The police is saying the bomb was of medium intensity because they were on strict vigil due to recent alerts...though it is questionable how the medium intensity IED was planted there...and another one found in dustbin...
The prelimininary report says the mastermind was Imtiyaz Bhatkal , planned in Pakistan, executed via Dubai via Nepal in Varanasi by Sleeper cells...Indian Mujahiddin claimed responsibility via a mail using unsecured wifi connection in Mumbai...
Now I know many of you have questions about the IEDs and Sleeper cells ...
IED: Improvised explosive device...
They are not ready made explosives..rather they are made from local ingredients with timer or mobile activated devices... they are kind of makeshift bomb..Many of you know Ammonium nitrate is being used as fertilizers...so its availability is cheap.. Each of you know burning needs oxygen and fuel and need ignition... Oxygen is provided by Ammonium nitrate..., Fuel.. is either diesel or kerosene which is mixed with the oxidizer for rapid burning..and mobile phone or alarm clock acts as the ignition device... they are sometime kept in pressure cookers because more you build the pressure, more is aggressiveness of the bomb...and they are the cheapest pressure device as wells as there steel body when exploded acts as shrapnel or they are packed with to cause maximum injury ..and they cause the most harm....I am not going to give you any details on how to make the IED...but that is common know how and details can be found just by google search... so see you don't have to be a chemist or explosive guy to know that....
Sleeper Cells:
This is a fancy term used by intelligence guys.... and nowadays by news agencies... Sleeper cells are nothing but locals recruited by the terrorist organization..either by favors given,threats, and/or religious motivation...Since most of the time terrorists are on watchlist...so they come with money.. help local people ..like someone need money for a job or paying back loan for the daughter's marriage..o by religious motivation ...and they are in debt after that.. they don't tell them what they are being recruited for and are made scapegoats for the operation and are activated just moments ago with all the plans and the money required. ready at their disposal. So these terrorist pay a meager amount to locals and they carry out the crime and the conspirators reap up the profit and funding...
Reki:
It is common term for reconnaissance or recon... it means survey of the area before executing any plan... the conspirators often survey the area to make the plan.. or where to plant bomb ..where is the entry points,what should be the exit strategy..what are the security of the area.. and lay out of the area...
1) Since it is big market.. Ammonium nitrate, diesel and mobiles are easily available..so making the bomb is easy...
2) As it is a big market.. the rush makes the people to hide in plain sight
3) The place is full of religious Muslims who live there in peace but it is hard to identify any terrorists doing the recon as they look like Indian and even if have muslim attire can be mistaken as locals.. and it is tourist place, so camera is not a matter of suspicion here...
4) The rush here makes the entry and exits easy as there are dozens of entry points and exit points.. whcih can't be guarded all the time....
5) Place is full of religious guys and poor guys.. so recruitment of sleeper cells is not hard...
6) The vehicles are parked on roads as there is lack of parking space and these are not often checked and suspected by anybody...
7) And you know the efficiency of Indian police....and Indian intelligence...they took hours to trace a single IP address.
On 26/11 there was a question asked by Times now on their facebook page about the assesment of security scenario.. and I told them there how Varanasi can be a soft target for the extremists and lack of secuirty there.. but they paid no hid and there is no place where I could drop my suggestions or warnings to Indian inteliigence agencies...the cameras are not working.. the metal door frame installed are broken ...and the roads are filled with street side vendors.. so rush is bound to happen and the danger is immenent...
Now this attack, killed a kid and injured about 20 with 9 foreigners ...and governments are busy in blaming state and center..and there is a clean up going on... but I still see Varanasi is a soft target and another strike is coming.. until people become conscious and government awakens from their sleep...and start working in making the city more secured so that everyone can breath free...
Stay safe...
Regards,
Sourish...
PS: No question will be entertained about how to make a bomb or IED.. I simple don't know and don't wanna know too and the facts shared here are not classified...

Wikileaks - A terrorist organisation and Indian millitary strategies
Yeah!!! This is what morning news at BBC told... Senior Leaders and Senator New York Rep. Peter King, rating Republican on the home Homeland Safety Committee are trying to declare WIKILEAKS as a foreign terrorist organisation ..
In his interview in a BBC talk show, he mentioned clearly that he and other senators are trying to declare wikileaks as a Foreign Terrorist Organizaton. So that US can seize their assets world wide and put a stop to the embarassment and security threat they are causing...
In the meanwhile, Ecquador offered asylum to Assange, as US govt are pressuring and routing for his arrest and prosecution. Funny thing is when Peter King was asked that if they are planning to assassinate the Mr. Assange for his role as head of a terrorist organization, he was not in denial rather he told that they are just trying to freeze their assets.
Now My question is , US is saying that we defend democracy and whole of their diplomats throughout have their own idea of ruling the world, Is Wikileaks doing wrong??
Now my answer is NO they are not, as you can't say something and mean another thing when it comes to international policy as we Indian were very hopeful to have a strong relationship with world's most powerful democracy...but I guess it is a long way....
But declaring wikileaks as terrorist organization will be worse for freedom of speech but surely they are walking on a thinedge.. coz what I feel is they are actually anti US rather than pro people, making US a tyrant ruler like what other terrorist organization of middle east call them to be.. but they are exposing the truth too.. so I guess it is a borderline thing.. and I just hope we get to see what they talk about India..
In a very recent update... Guardian reported that
Now you know with reference to India's nuclear arsenal be a deterrent and no first use policy, they are afraid that we will blow ourselves in Nuclear war.... and thank you US for letting people know that we are slow on reinforcements and spying our milliatary strategies..
I am still waiting for the cables from Indian embassy of US...but I do have a strong hope that it won't be worse as few of the leaks also told India as a powerful democracy in relation to its policy with middle east.
Ps: Now you know US spies are deep set in us...and Indian startegies now you should learn where not to hide ur millitary plans...

In a very recent update... Guardian reported that
"It is the collective judgment of the mission that India would likely encounter very mixed results. Indian forces could have significant problems consolidating initial gains due to logistical difficulties and slow reinforcement," read an American cable.Now what is Cold Start ????
It could trigger the world's first use of nuclear weapons since Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
"Indian leaders no doubt realise that, although 'Cold Start' is designed to punish Pakistan in a limited manner without triggering a nuclear response, they cannot be sure whether Pakistani leaders will in fact refrain from such a response."
"The Indian Army's 'Cold Start' doctrine is a mixture of myth and reality. It has never been and may never be put to use on a battlefield because of substantial and serious resource constraints, but it is a developed operational attack plan announced in 2004 and intended to be taken off the shelf and implemented within a 72-hour period during a crisis. Cold Start is not a plan for a comprehensive invasion and occupation of Pakistan. Instead, it calls for a rapid, time and distance-limited penetration into Pakistani territory with the goal of quickly punishing Pakistan, possibly in response to a Pakistan-linked terrorist attack in India, without threatening the survival of the Pakistani state or provoking a nuclear response"," said the US cable, dated February 16 and signed off by Roemer
Now you know with reference to India's nuclear arsenal be a deterrent and no first use policy, they are afraid that we will blow ourselves in Nuclear war.... and thank you US for letting people know that we are slow on reinforcements and spying our milliatary strategies..
