Indian Ruling Congress Party Nominates Sachin Tendulkar as Member of Parliament (Rajya Sabha)

Sachin Tendulkar the Rajya Sabha MP...!

© Harish Jharia

The breaking news about Sachin Tendulkar having been nominated by Congress party for the coveted post of Member of Parliament (Rajya Sabha) has sent high voltage shock waves across the country. The ruling party’s proposal has been reportedly accepted and approved by the President of India in a few hours on the same day.

The news flashed with the incident of a half an hour meeting between Congress President Sonia Gandhi and Sachin Tendulkar along with his wife Anjali at the former’s residence in New Delhi. It was reported that Sonia Gandhi called the legendry cricketer for a thanks giving meeting for Sachin’s 100^th international cricket century. Nevertheless, this simple and routine meeting turned-out to be a historic event when the 39 year young cricketer was offered a coveted seat in the upper house of Indian parliament, commonly called house of elders.

I have received this news with extreme confusion that has left me speechless and embarrassed. I have been reduced to such a subdued situation for the simple reason that I am an ardent fan of Sachin Tendulkar and at the same time I just do not like the ways the Congress party has governed India for the last 60 plus years.

I am not able to digest the fact that a living legend like Sachin Tendulkar has become the part of a political party that has been reportedly stained with allegation of corruption, harboring of black money and political conspiracies.

In fact Sachin Tendulkar has a larger than life persona and his image cannot be squeezed to the narrow slot of any political party that is looked at with a different angle of view. It would be better if Sachin Tendulkar refuses the offer of the nomination as the Rajya Sabha MP at-least as long as he is actively playing cricket.

Why tsunami tides were not formed in spite of the massive underwater earthquake of 8.6 magnitude in Indonesia on 11 April 2012?

Why tsunami tides were not formed?

- Harish Jharia

Question: Why tsunami tides were not formed in spite of the massive underwater earthquake of 8.6 magnitude in Indonesia on 11 April 2012?

Answer: I think when the tectonic / seismic plates generate a VERTICAL knock, after the earthquake; massive tides will be generated out of the same. If the knock acts in OTHER-THAN-VERTICAL directions, the resultant tsunami tides would be shorter and weaker.

Devastating Tsunami Tides in Japan... Indonesia and other countries
in Indian ocean were spared from this deadly havoc on 11 April 2012

Comparison between Indonesian and Japanese earthquakes / Tsunamis:

April 2012: Indonesian: 8.6-magnitude: Distance 269 miles / 434 kilometers
March 2011: Japanese: 8.9 magnitude: Distance 80 miles / 130 kilometers

In addition to the assumed difference in the direction of the knocks generated at the tectonic plates, there is a difference of 0.3 between the magnitudes of the two earthquakes. The Epicenter location, 434 km, in case of the Indonesian earthquake is 304km farther than that occurred in Japan at a distance of 130 km. As a result of the above a weaker tsunami has occurred in Indonesia in April 2012.

8.6-magnitude earthquake in Indonesian seas on 11 April 2012: Indonesian President Says… “There Is No Threat of Tsunami after Earthquake”

- Harish Jharia

"So far, there is no tsunami threat"… the Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono said on national television.

Indonesian president said today that “there was no immediate threat of a tsunami from an 8.6-magnitude earthquake that struck off Sumatra Island”.

Indonesia has issued its own tsunami warning and an Indian Ocean-wide alert was also issued earlier, after the quake. But President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono said there was no immediate threat to the island country.

8.6-magnitude earthquake hits waters off Indonesian seas on 11 April 2012

Yahoo News: Live: 8.6 magnitude quake rocks Indonesia

- Harish Jharia

Banda Aceh, Indonesia

A massive earthquake of 8.6-magnitude hit waters off Indonesian seas on Wednesday, triggering widespread panic as residents along coastlines fled to high ground in cars and on motorcycles. A tsunami watch was issued for countries across the Indian Ocean after the tremor.

The U.S. Geological Survey said the 8.6-magnitude quake was centered at 20 miles (33 kilometers) beneath the ocean surface around 269 miles (434 kilometers) away from Aceh's provincial capital shores.

The tremor was also felt in Singapore, Thailand, Bangladesh, Malaysia and India. High-rise apartments and offices on Malaysia's west coast shook for at least a minute.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii said a tsunami watch was in effect for Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka, Australia, Myanmar, Thailand, the Maldives and other Indian Ocean islands, Malaysia, Pakistan, Somalia, Oman, Iran, Bangladesh, Kenya, South Africa and Singapore.

Crazy ideas: How to wipe body after bath without slipping our palms over towel

Towel wipes the body with ease in the beginning

© Harish Jharia

Wiping body with towel is a daily routine; yet, there a couple of effective ways of using the towel, that we do not know or miss to follow. We just manage to wipe our body with a towel as fast as possible and come out of the bathroom in fresh air.

I always wonder about the behavior of my towel whenever I wipe my body after bath. The towel wipes the body with ease in the beginning. But, thereafter it starts sticking to the skin, my palms slip over it and I have to clutch the towel with my fingers to move it over the surface of my body.

In fact in the beginning of the wiping process our skin and palms both are equally moist after the bath. But the palms get dry by the time we finish wiping our head, hands and torso. And when we wipe our lower half of our body, especially legs… the palms get completely dried by then; whereas the skin of our legs remains profusely wet. Resultantly, the towel sticks to the skin and we need to clutch the towel and rub it on the legs.

Solution:

Before starting wiping our legs… we should move our palms on the wet surface of our remaining body and drench our palms. We may even drench your palms with tap water available in the bathroom.

Eventually, we would be able to wipe the wet body with towel without slipping our palms or clutching the towel with fingers.

Mothers might have faced the same problems while wiping their children’s wet bodies with dry hands. They may also drench their hands before this.

Film Review: Paan Singh Tomar (A Movie Based On the Life of an Army soldier... turned national athlete... turned Dacoit from Chambal)

The real Paan Singh Tomar

© Harish Jharia

There have been many Indian movies made with bandits as their main characters. Nevertheless, the film ‘Paan Singh Tomar’ directed by Tigmanshu Dhulia and produced by Ronnie Screwvala is quite different from all of them. The film is being distributed by UTV Motion Pictures and UTV Spotboy Motion Pictures and has been released on 2 Mar 2012.

This movie is quite different and outstanding because of the realistic presentation of the story and the characters, without any makeup and loud and imaginary outfits. While Irrfan (Khan has since been removed from his name) plays the lead role of paan Singh Tomar, Mahie Gill plays the character of his rustic villager wife. Vipin Sharma of ‘Taare Zameen Par’ fame plays a pivotal role of an army officer in the movie. Rajendra Gupta has portrayed an important character of Paan Singh Tomar’s sports coach in the Army.

Irrfan as Paan Singh Tomar

Story Line in the Movie:

Paan Singh Tomar is strong and lanky young man, fond of eating food and long distance running. He belongs to a joint family of village farmers in a village ‘Bhidausa’ near Morena situated in the Chambal ravines of Madhya Pradesh state of India. His adventurist nature eventually leads him to join the Indian Army.

Paan Singh Tomar has been portrayed as a jolly and carefree primary school dropout in the beginning of the movie. He uses to go out of the way to eat food far more than his friends colleagues and family members. This aspect of Paan Singh Tomar has been categorically projected by the director just to let the film-viewers feel the enormous energy he possessed and the fuel required to run the powerful machine he had in the form of his body.

Mahie Gill as Paan Singh Tomar's wife

The stamina, speed and power possessed by Paan Singh were noticed by his commanding officer Major Masand (played by Vipin Sharma) who in turn recommended him to be enrolled in the Army Sports and Games Coaching Centre. The Army sports coach (played by Rajendra Gupta) felt proud to have Paan Singh as his trainee and left no stone unturned while making efforts to make him a great steeplechase champion.

Paan Singh Tomar created the national steeplechase record in the 1958 National Games in Cuttack with a timing of 9min 12.4sec and broke his own record in the 1964 Open Meet in Delhi with a timing of 9min 4sec. Paan Singh Tomar carries the honor of being seven-time national steeplechase champion during the period from 1950s to 1960s in India.

He represented India in the 1958 Asian Games in Tokyo, Japan and as depicted in the film he could not win that event because he was asked to run on the tracks with spikes on, for the first time; whereas he was imparted training with canvas sports shoes in the Coaching Centre.

In spite of all these honors Paan Singh Tomar is not recognized by the Authorities and goes unnoticed all through the rest of his life. As shown in the film, one day he finds his agricultural fields unlawfully captured by his cousins while he was away on job in the Indian Army. His family is rendered landless and is beaten-up by the rogue relatives. He runs around to the police and other authorities for seeking justice but is rebuked and shoed off by them out of their offices.

The first complex of the film reaches just before ‘Intermission’, when Paan Singh and his brothers went out to the adjoining city for approaching the police, leaving behind his mother, wife and sons alone at home. Taking advantage of this situation, Paan Singh’s cousins lead by Bhanvar Singh, harvested the entire yields of his sugarcane crop, stole the same and torched the remaining twigs in the fields to a ravaging inferno. Thereafter Bhanvar Singh invaded his house and started devastating the household items. Alarmed with the first sight of the invaders, his family members ran away from their house. But his old mother was left behind. Bhanvar Singh caught hold of her and beat her ruthlessly.

Paan Singh got the information about this cruel devastation of his family, house and crops when he was on his way back to home. His supporters gathered around him and the innocent loyal army-man, turned international athlete, donned a new incarnation of a dreaded bandit. After intermission the film is full of dacoity, murders, abductions and encounters.

Paan Singh Tomer fondly addressed as ‘Subedar ji’ by his gang and the rural people of the entire border areas including parts of Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan, emerged as the strongest authority after the Police and local administration.
He was regarded the friend of poor and oppressed and the deadly threat for the wealthy oppressors.

The second and final climax in the story came at the end of the movie when a huge armed police force of about a couple of hundred soldiers, attacked Paan Singh Tomer and his gang of about twenty bandits, with automatic guns and killed him in an encounter. The police planned the encounter with the help of an informer who drugged Paan Singh and his gang at night. A member of Paan Singh’s gang ‘Gopi’ also ditched him by absconding along with the entire stock of ammunition.

Men’s Health and Cosmetic Look: Excess Growth of Hair on Eyebrows, Ear and nostrils Especially on Senior Citizens

Nasal hair

© Harish Jharia

Men grow hair in their nostrils and on their external ears, in addition to their facial hair. Their mustaches and beard start growing at their puberty; whereas their ear and nostrils grow hairs in their late thirties. Nasal and external ear hairs result in ugly facial look in man rather than serving any practical utility.

These hairs grow more in the case of senior citizens. I have seen many elderly people, including some celebrities, sporting outwardly shooting ear-hair with pride. Many elderly people move around carelessly with nasal hair protruding out of their nostrils. But in general these hairs are not considered good for facial looks of men and most of the people get rid of them by one way or the other.

Hair on external ear

There are following three type of ugly facial hair found in men especially in their later age:

Excess growth of hair on eyebrows: Additional thicker, harder and longer hair use to sprout out on the eyebrows of men in their late thirties. These hairs grow more in their post fifty ages when men reach their senior citizen stage. These hairs give scary look and should be trimmed regularly.
Excess growth of hair in nostrils: Additional thicker, harder and longer hair use to sprout out of the nostrils of men in their late thirties. These hairs grow more in their post fifty ages when men reach their senior citizen stage. These hairs give filthy and scary look and should be trimmed regularly. Nasal hair also affect the day-to-day life of men as the sufferers feel itching sensation when the thick bunches of hair touch the inner sensitive surface of nostrils. They also sneeze when the pointed ends of thick and hard hairs pinch the walls of nostrils. Such people usually develop habits of touching their noses frequently and sometimes insert fingers in nostrils.
Excess growth of hair on external ears: Additional use to grow out on the external ears of men in their late thirties. These hairs grow more in their post fifty ages when men reach their senior citizen stage. These hairs give ugly look and should be trimmed regularly.

1.5 volt AA battery operated Hair Trimmer

These hairs can be trimmed with the help of small scissors or you can rather go for electric trimmers available in the market. Almost all of these trimmers work on 1.5 volt AA batteries. They are handy and can be operated singlehandedly, easily and safely. With the help of these trimmers, you can completely cutoff hair from your nostrils and from the external ears. The hair sprouted out from your eyebrows will have to be trimmed and brought to the length of the normal hair of the eyebrows.

This grooming exercise will have to be performed at least twice a month regularly.

Mukesh Ambani celebrates Sachin Tendulkar’s 100th 100 and honors the cricketing legend with a grand party on 26 March 2012

© Harish Jharia

I never thought of writing an article with Mukesh Ambani as a central character because of his larger than life persona and the rarest of the rare tag of ‘the richest Indian’ attached to him. Nevertheless, I am writing this article with his name even in the title of this article simply because I found him one of the best human beings I have ever observed (of course via the media) and at the same time a down to earth person in his public life.

The other day I watched TV footages of a lavish party hosted by the India business tycoon Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani on 26 March 2012, to honor the IPL franchise Mumbai Indians' captain Sachin Tendulkar and to celebrate his 100th 100 in international cricket.

I watched Mukesh Ambani in video clippings for the first time in my life. I just could not believe my eyes when I watched the richest Indian with down to earth simple body language and a humane face expression without the corporate mask.

It was quite a splendid affair with top-notch faces of Bollywood as well as other celebrities attending the most talked about party of the year.

Amongst the notable cricketing fraternity Sachin Tendulkar with his wife Anjali, Harbhajan Singh, Anil Kumble, Sunil Gavaskar and Srikanth, there were many other Bollywood celebrities turned up at the bash to honor the legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar.

Among the Bollywood stars there were Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra, Abhishek Bachchan, Rani Mukerji, Riteish Deshmukh, Genelia D'Souza, Ashutosh Gowariker, Subhash Ghai, Kiran Rao and others who attended the grand party.
