With number of changes taking place in the country in recent times, one of a major change is taken place in the union cabinet. The Modi government had introduced new members in the council giving rise to a whole new cabinet of ministers for different departments on July,7th 2021. The total members counted as 43 among which 36 are new faces and 12 had been dropped out from the cabinet which includes, Health Minister Harsh Vardhan, IT and Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad and I&B Minister Prakash Javadekar, and brought Sarbananda Sonowal, Narayan Rane, Jyotiraditya Scindia and others. Many prime ministers all over the world have been known to have sacrificed this or that ministerial pawn in order to cover up their own leadership failure. Harsh Vardhan’s departure is as close an admission of governmental floundering as prime ministerial hubris would allow.
The new department of cooperation is granted to our home minister Amit Shah. New list is as follows-
Rajnath Singh: Defence Minister, Nitin Gadkari: Road Transport and Highways Minister, Nirmala Sitharaman: Finance Minister, Corporate Affairs Minister, Narendra Singh Tomar: Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare Minister, S Jaishankar: External Affairs Minister, Arjun Munda: Tribal Affairs Minister, Smriti Irani: Women and Child Welfare Minister, Piyush Goyal: Commerce & Industry Minister, Consumer Affairs Minister, Food & Public Distribution Minister, Textiles Minister, Dharmendra Pradhan: Education Minister, Skill Development and Entrepreneurship Minister, Pralhad Joshi: Parliamentary Affairs Minister, Coal Minister, Mines Minister, Narayan Rane: Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Minister, Sarbananda Sonowal: Ports, Shipping and Waterways Minister, AYUSH Minister, Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi: Minority Affairs Minister, Dr Virendra Kumar: Social Justice and Empowerment Minister, Giriraj Singh: Rural Development Minister, Panchayati Raj Minister, Jyotiraditya Scindia: Civil Aviation Minister, Ramchandra Prasad Singh: Steel Minister, Ashwini Vaishnaw: Railways Minister, Communication Minister, Electronics & IT Minister, Pashu Pati Kumar Paras: Food Processing Industries Minister, Gajendra Singh Shekhawat: Jal Shakti Minister, Kiren Rijiju: Law & Justice Minister, Raj Kumar Singh: Power Minister, New & Renewable Energy Minister, Hardeep Singh Puri: Petroleum & Natural Gas Minister, Housing & Urban Affairs Minister, Mansukh Mandaviya: Health and Family Welfare Minister, Chemicals & Fertilisers Minister, Bhupender Yadav: Environment, Forest & Climate Change Minister, Labour & Employment Minister, Mahendra Nath Pandey: Heavy Industries Minister, Parshottam Rupala: Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying Minister, G Kishan Reddy: Culture Minister, Tourism Minister, Minister for Development of Northeast, Anurag Thakur: Information & Broadcasting Minister, Sports & Youth Affairs Minister. Other 28 will hold the charge as Ministers of State.
This new cabinet marked a starting of new journey not only in terms of development but also along with growth with social equality as the members itself are chosen from different social backgrounds including, 12 ministers from Scheduled Caste communities from states such as Tamil Nadu, Rajasthan, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal. Two of them are likely to be Cabinet ministers. From the Scheduled Tribe communities, eight representatives from Arunachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Odisha, Assam, and Madhya Pradesh are inducted. Three of these are Cabinet ministers. Also, 19 members from Other Backward Class (OBC) communities. 11 women members had aslo been accomodated giving rise to women empowerment.
According to people aware of the details, the selection of ministers has also been done with the intent of bringing on-board people with administrative experience as the government has faced criticism including over the state of the economy, job crisis, rising prices, and the response to the second Covid-19 wave.
This kind of disorder arises when we are affected by situations that cannot be accepted so easily associated or experienced or witnessing of events in life. Those unforgettable moments always haunt us as nightmares and memories making us to regret for a lifelong period.
It is not an easy task to make them vanish from our life but feeling to overcome from it is a worse kind struggle between heart and soul.
It reflects that one-fourth of the people gets affected by this kind of deep emotion and as life goes by sacrifice those hinderances and move on. The more affected gender falls on mostly women as they are more emotional and trust worthy then men.
“IT’S NOT THE PERSON REFUSING TO LET GO OF THE PAST, BUT THE PAST REFUSING TO GO OF THE PERSON”
It is clear that people at several ages have experienced this disorder being in a state to console themselves, to come out of it and to forget the certain thing happened.
This disorder is affected if the affected one unable to move out of that trauma. About 10 percent have experienced this kind of situation out of 100. But the worse part is the trauma became advanced for 2 percent which they were out of control without treatment.
There are different levels for this disorder where each level will affect our mental ability badly and make us weaker. The stages of this effect will last till six months until for life period of one person.
Reducing the pressure and engaging on with multiple tasks at the same time makes us concentrate on the work to relieve us for some time. “Unexpected things happen but humans are a part of it to accept the fact of life”.
“Thing can’t be undone unless or until you come out of it”.
The early Vedic age is historically dated to the second half of the second millennium BCE. Historically, after the collapse of the Indus Valley Civilisation, which occurred around 1900 BCE, groups of Indo-Aryan peoplesmigrated into north-western India and started to inhabit the northern Indus Valley. The Indo-Aryans represented a sub-group that diverged from other Indo-Iranian tribes at the Andronovo horizon before the middle of the 2nd millennium BCE, The Indo-Iranians originated in the Sintashta culture, from which arose the subsequent Andronovo horizon. The Indo-Aryans migrated through the adjacent Bactria-Margiana area (present-day northern Afghanistan) to northwest India, , followed by the rise of the Iranian Yaz culture at c. 1500 BCE, and the Iranian migrations into Iran at c. 800 BCE.
The Indian Civilization an Unbroken Tradition
Indian writers and archaeologists have opposed the notion of a migration of Indo-Aryans into India, and argued for an indigenous origin of the Indo-Aryans. In this view, “the Indian civilization must be viewed as an unbroken tradition that goes back to the earliest period of the Sindhu-Sarasvati (or Indus) tradition (7000 or 8000 BCE).” Though popular in India, and reflecting Indian views on Indian history and religion,the idea of a purely indigenous origin of the Indo-Aryans is outside the academic mainstream.
The Aryans
The knowledge about the Aryans comes mostly from the Rigveda-samhita,i.e. the oldest layer of the Vedas, which was composed c. 1200–1000 BCE. They brought with them their distinctive religious traditions and practices. The Vedic beliefs and practices of the pre-classical era were closely related to the hypothesised Proto-Indo-European religion,and the Indo-Iranian religion. Funeral sacrifices from the Sintashta-culture show close parallels to the sacrificial funeral rites of the Rigveda, while, according to Anthony, the Old Indic religion probably emerged among Indo-European immigrants in the contact zone between the Zeravshan River (present-day Uzbekistan) and (present-day) Tajikistan.It was “a syncretic mixture of old Central Asian and new Indo-European elements”, which borrowed “distinctive religious beliefs and practices” from the Bactria–Margiana culture, including the god Indra and the ritual drink Soma.
The Red Market: On the Trail of the World’s Organ Brokers, Bone Thieves, Blood Farmers, and Child Traffickers is a non fiction book about organ trade. The author of this book, Scott Carney, an American investigative journalist and anthropologist, was born on the 9th of July, 1978. He has authored four books – The Red Market, The Enlightenment Trap, What Doesn’t Kill Us and The Wedge. Scott Carney has also worked as a contributing editor at Wired magazine and contributes stories on various issues to Mother Jones, Men’s Journal, Playboy, Foreign Policy, Discover, Outside and Fast Company. Several radio and television programmes including National Geographic TV have covered his works.
This book is an account of various organ trade practices prevalent in the world. The title of the book ‘The Red Market’ – a term coined by the author – refers to a black market place for trafficked human body parts.
“I weigh just a little under two hundred pounds have brown hair blue eyes and a full set of teeth. As far as I know my thyroid gland pumps the right hormones into the twelve pints of blood that circulate in my arteries and veins. At six feet and two inches I have long femurs and tibias with solid connective tissue. Both my kidneys function properly and my heart runs at a steady clip of eighty-seven beats per minute. All in I figure I’m worth about 250 000.”
It contains accounts of an Indian village – nicknamed ‘Kidneyvakkam’ – notorious for its citizens selling their kidney to meet ends, grave robbers in remote villages, a temple that sells the hair of its devotees, child kidnappers who sell kids to adoption centres, and the practice of surrogacy and surrogate mothers. His book provides a detailed and informative account on numerous ways by which the trade of organs is carried out. His information is backed by a thorough research that spanned for years.
“our appetite for human flesh is higher now than at any other time in history.”
This author manages to capture the plight of people forced by their fate to sell their organs to sustain their livelihood, how the anonymity of the buyers is maintained, how the trade is carried out through agents, the economics of the red market and how it is affected by various laws in different countries. The writing style is clear and makes one feel like an observer of the events being narrated making the book an insightful one.
“People don’t go to a transplant center to buy medical services: They go to buy organs.”
The book manages to paint a sufficiently clear enough picture of things that benefits even a person not acquainted with the subject. The book benefits from the background research and the experiences of the author. The interviews of various people involved in the practice helps in better understanding of the events and supplying contextual facts. Despite all this, some parts and arguments advanced by the author tend to feel vague.
Porn addiction refers to a person becoming emotionally dependent on pornography to the point that it interferes with their daily life, relationships, and ability to function. This type of addiction may be quite common. Some doctors consider porn addiction to be a hypersexual disorder — an umbrella term that includes behaviors such as excessive masturbation.
It’s important to note that “porn addiction” isn’t an official diagnosis recognized by the American Psychiatric Association (APA). But experiencing an uncontrollable compulsion to view porn can be as problematic for some people as other behavioral addictions. Since the existence of “porn addiction” is not recognized by the APA, no definitive diagnostic criteria guide mental health professionals in its diagnosis.
SIGNS OF PORN ADDICTION
1. You Can’t Stop
You are unable to stop using or viewing pornography, despite trying to do so. If your partner can’t stop, you may notice that they are spending more and more time on the internet despite your attempts to communicate with them.
2. You Want More
People addicted to porn report that they do experience cravings to view more. Similar to how someone can be addicted to heroin, people who suffer from porn addiction will feel cravings if they have gone without it for any amount of time. If your partner is craving porn, you may notice them sneaking away from you to another room. It’s possible that they’ll make an excuse or get defensive when you question them about it.
3. You’ve Lost Time
People suffering from porn addiction can lose large periods of time to viewing porn, wasting most of the day without accomplishing anything. You could notice that someone addicted to porn is lethargic and not accomplishing much as of late. They might seem like they don’t care or are very uninterested in anything else.
4. You’ve Lost Interest in Sex
When someone becomes addicted to porn, they actually lose interest in real sex. Not only that, but they actually find their partner less attractive when compared to the people seen in porn. People who suffer from porn addiction may lose interest in the advances of their partner. This makes them seem distant or even uninterested when you try to engage with them sexually. They may require more stimulation than they needed before to become aroused.
5. You’re More Demanding
People suffering from porn addiction develop unrealistic ideas about sex. This can make them more demanding in the bedroom, easily frustrated, and alienate their partner. When this happens, their partner can feel physically and emotionally uncomfortable.
6. You’ve Lost Attraction
Porn addiction can give the afflicted unrealistic expectations of beauty for their partner. This can make their partner feel hurt about their appearance and create a greater problem for their self-esteem.
7. You’re in Physical Pain
Someone suffering from porn addiction can actually begin to experience physical pain. Be it from the physical movements involved when viewing porn, or the strain that comes with excessive computer use, people addicted to porn frequently complain about wrist, back, and neck pain and headaches.
8. You’re Losing Money
Some people who suffer from porn addiction start spending money for what they consider higher-quality content. When this happens, they can quickly begin falling into some kind of financial hardship. This appears as them complaining more about money problems, but unwilling to disclose the exact nature of these problems.
9. You’re Distracted
When people are addicted to porn, they can become distracted from different aspects of life. Their mind drifts to porn when they are with friends, family, or at work. It could actually impact their work and relationships. This makes them distant from their partner and their attempts to connect with them.
10. You’re Angry
Like any addiction, someone suffering from porn addiction will become easily irritable if they go without porn. They may have less patience in certain acts if they see them as delaying watching porn. This can also make it easier to lash out at their partner. They’ll be more irritable, agitated, or even erratic. Their partner could notice major changes in their personality and don’t feel that they are the same person they loved before.
CAUSES OF PORN ADDICTION
Lots of different things can be reinforcing, and thus influence our behavior, but porn can be especially reinforcing because the reward taps into a very basic instinctual drive–sex. Therefore, it is very easy to become addicted to porn–it is accessing a fundamental (and very enjoyable) natural drive. It is also much easier to obtain than going out and finding a “mate” to fulfill this drive. The problem occurs when seeking sexual pleasure becomes excessive, impulsive, or comes at the expense of other valued behaviors. Then we might say that one has a porn addiction.
BIOLOGICAL FACTORS
You may have a genetic predisposition to impulsivity, emotion dysregulation, or sensation-seeking behavior.
You may have a predisposition to other characteristics that are associated with sexual addiction, like anxiety or depression.
As you might expect, higher levels of sex hormones like testosterone or estrogen can affect libido.
If you are inclined towards impulsive behavior and have high levels of sex-related hormones, you may be more likely to engage in excessive or compulsive porn watching
2. PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS
Early-life environmental factors, including adverse events like abuse or exposure to sexual content, can contribute to some of the underlying traits involved in porn addiction behaviors.
Mental health:
Anxiety.
Depression.
Personality disorders.
Poor impulse control.
Performance anxiety.
Other mental health issues might contribute to porn addiction behaviors.
3. SOCIAL FACTORS
Rejection in relationships and social circles can lead to other, less healthy ways to find sexual gratification.
Social isolation:
Not only does social isolation increase one’s likelihood of seeking inappropriate ways of being sexually gratified, it also leads to a host of other problems–like depression and physical maladies–that can contribute to porn addictions or unhealthy sex behaviors.
Peer influence:
If others around you are doing something, you are more likely to do it, too. Having a friend, or a group of friends, for example, who engage in excessive porn viewing can influence your behavior.
WHAT HAPPENS IN THE BRAIN WHILE WATCHING PORN?
One of the clearest indicators of psychological addiction is an emotional response in the brain. Brain activity can be detected via electroencephalography (EEG) which involves placing electrodes on the scalp and measuring the activity. It tells us, from the surface measurements, how active the brain is. We see increased activity whenever people with addiction are presented with images of that addiction—like cigarettes for smokers, or gaming for gamblers. But EEG tests from a pivotal study by UCLA neuroscientists in 2015showed that people who struggle with porn consumption don’t have this characteristic spike in brain activity while watching porn.
In fact, the researchers noted that they showed decreased brain reactions while viewing the sexual images—the exact opposite of what you’d expect to see going on in the brain of someone with an addiction. The findings suggest that self-proclaimed “porn addicts” don’t quite have the same relationship with porn as someone with a substance addiction has to their drug of choice.
It should be noted that porn addiction is not the same as sex addiction. Porn addiction, if it exists, is likely part of a larger problem of sex addiction but the jury is still out on whether either problem constitutes addictive behavior.
Pornography addiction leads to same brain activity as alcoholism or drug abuse, study shows.
Effects of Addiction to Pornography
Physical
Sexual dysfunction.
Impotence (inability to form or maintain an erection).
Premature ejaculation.
2. Psychological
Preoccupation with sexual thoughts throughout the day.
Guilt, shame, confusion.
Ambivalence about stopping, or cycles of stopping/restarting.
Tendency towards other impulsive behaviors.
Depression, anxiety, or other co-occurring psychological disorders.
3. Social
Not wanting to seek person-to-person (real life) sexual contact, or diminished patience for sexual contact (e.g., wanting to have sex right away, or fantasizing or obsessing about sexual contact with random strangers).
Decline in romantic or sexual interactions with partner, such as:
Inability to become aroused.
Increasing need for more aggression or dominance.
Emotional detachment.
How Is a Porn Problem Treated?
If you’re struggling in this area or want to change your relationship with porn, the good news is that it’s totally possible. If your goal is to reduce your porn consumption, studies have shown that mindfulness and acceptance-based psychotherapy can usually be more effective than a pharmacological approach. (Although, if you do have a co-existing mental health condition such as depression or OCD, your doctor may recommend medication.)
Keep in mind that addiction-based models for recovery aim to eliminate the behavior completely (and rehab programs for watching porn do exist). It should be noted that much of the problem with porn has to do with social stigma, judgments, and disapproval of partners of people using porn. So it has a social circumstance component that drives conflict and shame.
More realistic for pornography issues, according to psychotherapists, are talk therapy approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which have been shown to be effective in managing and reducing these types of behaviors. ACT strategies can help an individual find ways to be comfortable with their negative feelings around viewing porn, making it easier for them to actually enjoy lower consumption rates.
The word liberty is derived from the Latin word ‘liber’(free from all restraints). There are two views of liberty – positive and negative. Positive approach views liberty as the freedom to do anything. Negative approach views liberty as the freedom to be not forced to do anything.
Some definitions of liberty are:
Seeley:
“Liberty is the opposite of over-government”.
McKechnie:
“Freedom is not the absence of all restraints but rather the substitution of irrational ones for the rational”.
According to this definition, absolute freedom cannot exist in practice and liberty can exist only with certain restrictions on freedom. This is a practical perspective of liberty.
Burns:
“Liberty means the liberty to grow to one’s natural height to develop one’s abilities.”
According to this definition, the end of liberty is an opportunity for the individual to develop himself personally and become better.
Gettell:
“Liberty is the positive power of enjoying and doing those things which are worthy of enjoyment and work”.
There are certain types of liberty. One type is natural liberty which is the absolute, unrestricted freedom to do anything at all. People enjoyed this kind of liberty in a “state of nature”(life of people before societies came into existence without any social or political institutions and laws). According to the social contract theory, people enjoyed natural liberty in the state of nature. It is to be noted that, natural liberty is inapplicable in a civil society. Practically speaking, natural liberty does not exist. Therefore, it is necessary to restrict absolute liberty with certain reasonable restrictions to ensure an orderly and harmonious existence. Civil liberty answers this need and grants a reasonable degree of freedom to every person forming the society without any discrimination. The obvious problem here is the determination of how much liberty to allow without any arbitrariness and selfishness. According to jurist Dicey, Rule of Law, referring to the restriction of the arbitrary exercise of power by subjecting it to established, well-defined rules applicable to everyone or laws, is the solution .
The third type of liberty is political liberty. Scholars soon realised that mere recognition of civil rights alone was not sufficient as it did not guarantee protection against tyrannical and despotic authority. Even the Rule of Law, seemingly a proper guarantee against arbitrariness of rulers, was not a complete guarantee against rulers imposing unpopular measures against the citizens. This led to the perspective that people must also possess the power to convince the government to recognize their views and problems and replace the plans. This was the origin of politcal liberty. Political liberty, in its core, refers to the freedom of an individual to play an active part in the politics and governance of the State. According to Laski, political liberty is “the power to be active in the affairs of the State”. Practically, political liberty includes freedoms and rights like the right ot vote, free and fair elections, right to dissent etc. Civil liberty and political liberty combined was a severe blow to the arbitrariness and despotism of rulers, a major problem in the past. Another type of liberty is economic liberty. It refers to the freedom of individual to be involved in economic action and make economic choices.
The next type of liberty is personal liberty. Personal liberty refers to the freedom of the individual to make personal choices. For example, decisions regarding clothing, food, religion etc. Just like an individual even the State yearns for liberty. National liberty refers to a position where the State has external sovereignty which means freedom from external control from other states and external pressure.
Apart from this, there are certain safeguards to protect liberty from denigration and ensure it is practised properly. One such safeguard is the Rule of Law developed by the English jurist Dicey. It refers to imposing check on the arbitrary usage of power by subjecting it laws. At its core, lie the ideas of society ruled by law, equality before law and obligations. It acts as a check against arbitrary restrictions on liberty by those in power. Next important safeguard is the Independence of the Judiciary. All the states in the modern era are built on the idea of separation of powers amongst the Legislature, Executive, and Judiciary. Independence of the judiciary is necessary for it act without being influenced by fear from the executive. This acts as a check on the executive and prevents arbitrary usage of power. The next safeguard is democracy. Liberty is possible only in a democratic set up. It is unimaginable in a monarchic or authoritative state. Democracy is sine qua non for liberty to exist. Liberty is also safeguarded by the Constitution. The Constitution forms the supreme law to which everyone in the State is subject. It reigns supreme even over everyone and even the most powerful in the State. This makes it an effective check on despotism and arbitrariness in the exercise of power, thus protecting liberty. Then, liberty is safeguarded by rights sanctioned, guarded and enforced by law form the basis for liberty in practice. Another important safeguard in economic security. When people’s basic needs are unfulfilled they can think about higher causes like liberty. This makes it an important condition to exercise liberty.
In India Caste System consists of two different concepts that are Varna and Jati, the real concept of Varna has almost disappeared in the present context and has changed into Jati. Caste is such a deep-rooted and pervasive concept, it is a rigid form of stratification system, in which mobility of rank and status is not allowed. The members of backward classes are not a part of Hindu society even then, they had started observing untouchability towards Dalits- who themselves have a caste hierarchy. During his lifetime Dr. Ambedkar had played three roles: caste leader, untouchable spokesman, and that of a national statesman. He was a guide, guru, and decision-maker for his caste, the Mahars of Maharashtra.
According to him, no civilized society other than Indian one practices rituals of the remote past even today. Its religion is essentially primitive, and its tribal code, despite the advancement of time and civilization, operates with all its pristine vigor even today. The prevalence of exogamy was well-known in the primitive world. The caste system has made Hindu society stagnant which creates hurdles in integration with outsiders. Even internally, Hindu society fails to satisfy the test of a homogeneous society, as it is just a conglomeration of different castes. The caste system does not allow lower castes to prosper which led to moral degradation. The battle for the removal of untouchability becomes the battle for human rights and justice. Dr. Ambedkar criticized old Law books like Manusmriti and Arthshastras who showed the inferiority and bitterness towards the suppressed class. He also criticized the higher standard of Brahmans who are category above of all. The Brahmans are somehow responsible for social exploitation and the backwardness of untouchables.
For many of us, atleast for me, body hair is an insecurity. Lacking confidence, diffidence when your body hair is exposed is common. It’s believed that cavewomen & cavemen where the first to remove body hair, but they shaved for safety reasons, not vanity. They shaved their heads & faces so their opponents wouldn’t grab onto it in battle. Guess Anil Kapoor was trying to be a caveman all these years.
What is body hair?
Body hair, or androgenic hair, is the terminal hair that develops on the human body during and after puberty. It is differentiated from the head hair and less visible vellus hair, which is much finer and lighter in color. The growth of androgenic hair is related to the level of androgens (often referred to as male hormones) and the density of androgen receptors in the dermal papillae. Both must reach a threshold for the proliferation of hair follicle cells.
From the beginning, from our childhood itself these vellas hair cover the human body regardless of the sex. Exceptions are granted to certain parts of the body where vellas hair is not present; lips, the backs of the ears; the palms of hands; the soles of the feet; certain external genital areas; the navel; and scar tissue.
Why is it considered a insecurity
Markus J. Rantala of the Department of Biological and Environmental Science, University of Jyväskylä, Finland, said humans evolved by “natural selection” to be hairless when the trade off of “having fewer parasites” became more important than having a “warming, furry coat.
The evolution of humanity led to the creation of insecurity called “body hair”. Body hair is supposed to keep us warm and is a very good thermal conductor and aids heat transfer both in and out of the body. The cavemen and cave women started shaving their body hair despite their loss of warmth, to protect themselves at times of battles.
In the 21st century indeed, body hair remains much more than an indication we’re mammals; it’s loaded with meaning. We equate body hair with power and masculinity, and many are intimidated when women showcase those traits, explains Merran Toerien, Ph.D., professor of sociology at the University of York in England. This ideology has indeed made body hair, the very same hair that you get during puberty, they very same hair that has been on your body since your existence an insecurity. Women are criticised for showing off their body hair, because the world “thinks” and “believes” that it is a sign of “musculinity”. What is forgotten here is that body hair is NATURAL, that means it is not a choice.
Reforms
Since the obscenity of body hair came into existence with evolution, the removal of obscenity is also taking place with evolution. Many body hair activists like; Harman Kaur, Morgan Mikenas, Angelo tesso have put in their inputs to normalise body hair. These strong standing women are a pride,and an inspiration to many. The body hair scene is being normalised.
more #bodyhair pics have probably popped up in your Instagram feed lately. Sift through the hashtag and among guys showing off Hasselhoff-ian chests, you’ll see women proudly displaying their leg, pit, and arm fuzz. Related hashtags #dyedpits, #bodyhairdontcare, and #girlswithhairyarms boldly caption thousands upon thousands of hair-proud posts.
It is now being understood by men and women that, the concept of body hair being obscene is a mere speculation and a “opinion” of someone. It is being understood that opinions of other’s should’nt change the way you embrace yourself.
Money Heist (Spanish: La casa de papel, “The House of Paper”) is a Spanish heist crime drama television series created by Álex Pina. The series traces two long-prepared heists led by the Professor (Álvaro Morte) and one on the Royal Mint of Spain. The narrative is told in a real-time-like fashion and relies on flashbacks, time-jumps, hidden character motivations, and an unreliable narrator. The series was initially intended as a limited series to be told in two parts. It had its original run of 15 episodes on Spanish network Antena 3 from 2 May 2017 through 23 November 2017. Netflix re-cut the series into 22 shorter episodes and released them worldwide, beginning with the first part on 20 December 2017. Part 3, with eight episodes, was released on 19 July 2019. In July 2020, Netflix renewed the show for a fifth and final part, which will be released in two five-episode volumes on 3 September and 3 December 2021. By 2018, the series has become Netflix’s most-watched non-English-language series. The anti-fascist Italian song “Bella ciao,” which appears several times in the series, was a summer success across Europe in 2018. At the 46th International Emmy Honors, the series won many awards, including Best Drama Series.
Season 1
Part 1 opens with the aftermath of a failed bank robbery by a lady named “Tokyo,” as a man dubbed “Professor” saves her from the cops and offers a heist of epic proportions. The tale leaps to the commencement of a multi-day assault on the Royal Mint of Spain in Madrid after a brief explanation of the intended theft. Tokyo, Moscow, Berlin, Nairobi, Rio de Janeiro, Denver, Helsinki, and Oslo are the code names for the eight thieves. The robbers, dressed in red jumpsuits and wearing a Salvador Dal mask, grab 67 hostages as part of their plot to print and flee with €2.4 billion down a self-built escape tunnel. The thieves within the Mint struggle to follow the pre-determined regulations in parts 1 and 2, and are confronted with recalcitrant captives, brutality, isolation, and mutiny. The events are narrated by Tokyo through voice-overs. In the first part of the second instalment of The Professor, Raquel finds a series of postcards left by the Professor, who wrote the coordinates for a location in the Philippines, where she reunites with him. Raquel realises his true identity, but is emotionally unable and unwilling to hand him over to the police. At the end of part 2, after 128 hours, the robbers escape successfully from the Mint with €984 million, but at the cost of the lives of three people.
Season 2
Part 3 of the series follows the Professor and Berlin’s plans to rob the Royal Mint of Spain three years after the last heist. The Professor is captured by Europol, but escapes with a new gang led by Mónica. Part 3 concludes by showing Lisbon alive and in custody, and Tokyo narrating that the Professor had fallen for his own trap and that “the war had begun”. The Professor and Marseille deduce that Lisbon must still be alive and being interrogated by Sierra in a tent outside of the bank. They persuade Tamayo’s assistant, Antoñanzas, to help them, and the Professor can establish a 48-hour truce with the police. Part 4 concludes with Lisbon rejoining the gang within the bank, and with Sierra finding the Professor’s hideout, holding him at gunpoint, and exposing the torture of Rio and the holding of Lisbon to the public.
The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) is a intergovernmental organization comprising of oil-producing countries that work together on forming petroleum policies. They want to stabilize the oil prices while eliminating any fluctuations and provide a regular supply to all oil consuming countries. They also ensure a fair return to all those who invest in the petroleum industry.
OPEC was founded in September 1960 in Baghdad and the founding members were Iraq, Kuwait, Venezuela, Saudi Arabia and Iran. It was later registered with the United Nations in 1962. Today, the member nations also include the United Arab Emirates, Libya, Nigeria, Congo, Algeria and Angola. OPEC was first headquartered in Geneva but was later moved to Vienna, Austria in 1965 even though Austria is not a member nation. When OPEC was first formed their goal was to prevent large oil producers and refineries from lowering the price of oil. They wanted more control over the oil prices through coordinated production and export policies.
OPEC controls approximately 4/5th of the world’s petroleum reserves and produce 2/5th of the world’s oil. The member countries differ considerably in terms of size of reserves, economy and political interests. Countries like Saudi Arabia and Kuwait have very large per capita oil reserves and are relatively strong financially and thus have considerable flexibility in adjusting their production. Saudi Arabia has always played a dominant role in determining overall production and prices. However, Venezuela has the largest oil reserves and and only produces a small fraction of what Saudi Arabia produces.
Experts have said that OPEC is not a cartel and has very little influence over oil prices and its production. In fact, there has been an ongoing debate on whether OPEC can be a called a cartel or not. The influence of individual OPEC members on the organization and on the oil market usually depends on their production and the size of their reserves. Saudi Arabia, which controls a third of OPEC’s total oil reserves, has a leading role in the organization. Other important members are Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, and the UAE, whose combined reserves are much greater than that of Saudi Arabia. Iran and Iraq, both with growing and large populations, have generally produced at a higher level relative to reserves. Kuwait, which has a very small population, has shown a willingness to cut production relative to the size of its reserves. However, with all the wars and revolutions over time, some OPEC members cannot maintain their high production levels.

How can you describe a great leader? Great leaders aren’t always found with title CEO or manager on their business card.
Anyone can demonstrate leadership qualities.
It’s not about winning a popularity contest. You don’t have to be liked to be respected. It’s about serving and influencing others regardless of their job title in the effort to achieve a certain goal. More than anything, it’s about creating harmony in an environment where people want to work together.
In one study, leadership qualities such as assertiveness, adaptability, intelligence, and conscientiousness were cited as the most important. Transformational leaders are positive, empowering, and inspiring. They value followers and inspire them to perform better. So what can you do to embrace these valued leadership qualities and become a stronger and more effective leader?
Transformational leadership are usually described as enthusiastic, passionate, genuine and energetic. These leaders are not just concerned about helping the group achieve its goals; they also care about helping each member of the group reach his or her full potential.
Leadership can be a struggle to develop, as there are intrinsic qualities that are tough to cultivate.
But if you’re willing to face the challenge, and follow these guidelines, then you’ll be on the right path to becoming the leader your business needs to succeed.
Encourage Creativity
Intellectual stimulation is one of the leadership qualities that define transformational leadership. Followers need to be encouraged to express their creativity. Effective leaders should offer new challenges with ample support to achieve these goals.
Serve as a Role Model
Idealized influence is another of the four key components of transformational leadership. Transformational leaders exemplify the behaviors and characteristics that they encourage in their followers. They walk the walk and talk the talk. As a result, group members admire these leaders and work to emulate these behaviors.
Be Passionate
You can develop this leadership quality by thinking of different ways that you can express your zeal. Let people know that you care about their progress. When one person shares something with the rest of the group, be sure to tell them how much you appreciate such contributions.
Listen and Communicate Effectively
By keeping the lines of communication open, these leaders can ensure that group members feel able to make contributions and receive recognition for their achievements.
Have a Positive Attitude
Even when things look bleak and your followers start to feel disheartened, try to stay positive. This does not mean viewing things through rose-colored glasses. It simply means maintaining a sense of optimism and hope in the face of challenges.
Head-to-Head England have won just two of the recent 14 matches against Italy. Overall, the two have met 27 times with Italy winning on 11 occassions, England eight and the remaining eight ending in stalemate. In EUROS also, Italy have the edge winning 1-0 in 1980, and drawing 0-0 before winning on penalties in the 2012 edition.
The is Azzuri’s 10th final while the Three Lions are appearing in the title clash of a major tournament for the first time since 1966 FIFA World Cup. Italy are unbeaten in their last 33 matches across all competitions, while England have not lost in their last 12 outings.
It is Mancini’s team who have a better best chance of lifting the trophy — currently rated at 60.1 per cent. Only three teams have ever won the EUROs on home soil — Spain (1964), Italy (1968) and France (1984). England, who have won 15 of their last 17 matches at Wembley Stadium in all competitions, will be hoping to join that list. But their task is easier said than done against an Italian side, who are eyeing their first EURO since 1968.
There were many hashtags trending, regarding the Lakshadweep issue on twitter and #Save Lakshadweep has been spotted on several social platforms for the past days. Some were wondering what was happening in Lakshadweep and what has triggered the ongoing hassle to protect the island from social and political turmoil and imminent ecological demolition. In brief let us see what has pushed Lakshadweep into such a devastating state.
Lakshadweep is the India’s smallest Union Territory consisting a chain of 36 individual islands located in the Arabian Sea about 400 km from the city of Kochi with an area of 32 sq km. It comprises of 12 atolls, three reefs, five submerged banks and ten inhabited islands. The inhabited islands have a population of nearly 64,473 people according to the 2011 census. Culturally and socially the inlands’ are close to Kerala and the people over there speak a dialect of Malayalam with the influence of Arabic similar to Arabi Malayalam, in the Minicoy island which is close to the Maldives the language spoken is Mahl. Lakshadweep is known for its exotic and alluring beaches and the exuberant green landscape. In Malayalam and Sanskrit the word Lakshadweep means ‘a hundred thousand islands.’ When some of the beaches in the country are swamped with air pollution, plastics and wastes, it is pertinent to mention that the natural landscapes, the heavenly atmosphere, the glittering sea, the peace living people, the sandy shores, abundance of flora and fauna and the deprivation of a rushed and hasty lifestyle enhances the charisma of Lakshadweep. It certainly holds the the least position in crime rate of the country and one of the lowest, globally as well. As per the national crime records bureau (2019) report the island had zero cases of major crimes such as rape, murder, kidnapping and dacoity. The inhabitants take pride in their traditional culture while maintaining prominent environmental measure to safeguard the island. We can describe it as a small heaven on earth for its resources and wealth. It is a restricted territory and one requires an entry permit issued by the Lakshadweep Administration to visit the islands because 94% of the population are scheduled tribes.
The islands are protected under special provisions where alcohol and liquor sales are not permitted, and the non residents cannot buy any land. As Lakshadweep is a union Territory it doesn’t have a formal Chief Minister as other states do but for the administration and monitorization an administrator like an IAS or IPS officer would be appointed by the President. The trouble began after the death of Dineshwar Sharma, the former Administrator of Lakshadweep and once Praful Khoda Patel took over charge as the new administrator. He was a former BJP leader and the former Home Minister of Gujarat. After Praful Khoda Patel took charge, he came up with many drafts of several reforms such as the Lakshadweep Animal preservation regulation that bans slaughter of cows,bulls and bullocks( This proposal was fiercely opposed alleging that Patel is implementing the RSS’s agenda of beef ban) Lakshadweep prevention of Anti-Social Activities Regulation, Lakshadweep Development Authority Regulation( The draft bill is been widely resented with protestors alleging this law is aimed at serving ”Real estate interests” and usurping the small land holdings of the people) and amendment to the Lakshadweep Panchayat Staff rules(The draft proposed that if a resident has more than two children he/she cannot contest a panchayat election). The draft regulation defines development as the carrying out of building, mining, quarrying or other operations so it becomes apparent that the regulations make it very easy for the government to take over land of any person in the garb of development. When the nurses and health care workers protested for the salary hike everybody were refrained form their jobs and arrested. The Muslim majority island territory has remained a non alcoholic zone for decades but there was another draft framed that allowed sale of liquor at hotels and resorts in the name of tourist promotion.
The development authority regulation appears to be quite a controversial reform and hundreds of the islands’ residents have written to the administration opposing it. They expressed their intimidation that Patel’s motive was to destroy traditional and the cultural diversity of the people of Lakshadweep. Praful Patel was involved in many controversial circumstances. To everyone’s astonishment, when the whole world was inflicted by corona, Lakshadweep had no cases of Corona till last December. But after Patel took charge he pronounced that the people who tested negative for Corona within 48 hours can arrive to Lakshadweep and opened the gate for outsiders. But today Lakshadweep has over 7000 cases of covid-19 and corona is been spreading. Services of hundreds of contract laborers working under various departments of the Union Territory have been terminated and workers of various government offices have been dismissed. These are some of the woeful situations that the Lakshadweep is into and has got trapped in a contentious and autocratic administration. Development of a territory is most welcomed by the people but it should not ruin the resources and the wealth of the space.
