Diana Sizzles; Cosmetics on Roll

It is almost 10 years since princess Diana died in a car accident in France. But the queen of hearts continues to live in all romantic minds. She exudes more charm in death and sizzles in eternity. That a middle aged woman, despite a pretty long marital bliss of 15 years and controversial divorce with Prince Charles, had infulential men dying to court her is a story of amazing women power. Or can it be that these suitors believed that acceptance of Diana can be the right certificate of their virility?

To the jealous, the scenes of millionaire film producer Dodi Fayed sashaying with Diana and finally accompanying her to death is history unbelievable. Every body had their share of surprise; why Diana settled for the then 40-year-old Fayed, whose main claim to fame was that he was the son of Mohammed, one of the richest men in the world.

For me, Diana’s attraction were; that mesmerizing smile and wide, radiant eyes and a lovely bottom.

The puzzles on Diana’s untimely death still remains; wrapped in suspense and mystery they resurrect as doubts time and again. But let’s face it-she continues be a heart throb and a death-defying lady in many dreams.

For all those not as charismatic as Diana, the staggering growth of Natural Personal Care Products consisting of natural/organic skincare, haircare and cosmetics market touching $6 billion is the lasting imprint of Diana’s legacy of charming the life.

There is a an increasing number of skincare, beauty and household cleaning products organic in nature now riding the organic wave, just as the organic food boom. Fruits are increasingly becoming the most popular organic ingredient choices for many personal care and cosmetic products. Iserafini, an oral hygiene maker in Italy made one of its products Collutorio Aqua Tangerina, a mouthwash from mandarin juice and floral extracts. Tri-son's Mena brand even launched organic papaya soap with vitamin E, to provide sun protection for making skin smoother and whiter.

It seems, the strong-beauty conscious generation will throw up more Dianas who may be not be exactly using these to elicit passions but to feel themselves assured. After all these days no kiss is sans the fragrance of cosmetics.

KERALA--Land of Rejuvenation

Man is always inquisitive and in incessant search of new knowledge, experience and sights. Perhaps this stimulus is fuelling leisure travel, which is the backbone of tourism across the world. But choosing the right location and getting the right returns for the money spent, is a daunting task. In that respect, Kerala, the Indian state in the southern tip separated by sea from Sri Lanka is scoring high over all other places.

For tourists-the high spenders as well as budget travelers, Kerala is a heaven. Over the years, Kerala has climbed the popularity charts and is now the top 5 exotic locations in the world, according to a survey by National Geographic Channel.

Travelling to Kerala during August-May is perfect. Its USP is REJUVENATION to the soul and body. A big number of travellers concede that what they experienced in Kerala had been more than sight seeing. It was an experience in over haul; in self discovery and of self healing.

The tourists enjoy the Ayurvedic (herbal) massages and the salubrious climate where temperatures never cross 35 degree Celsius. The rejuvenation of the body through ayurvedic massaging through traditional methods; excellent spicy food and exotic pleasures of travel in house boats through its backwaters devouring its serenity, greenery and calm has no parallel.

One tourist even confided to me that he had the best ever sex in a houseboat and its fond memory.

Kerala's famed hill stations Thekkady, Munnar, Ponmudi and beaches of Kovalam, Varkala and Beypore will chill your senses. It is at Kumarokom, the mother of all opportunities to unwind-the famed house boats for less than 100 dollars. Kerala's three international airports are in capital Trivandrum, harbour city Cochin and Calicut, who offer excellent connectivity to all the major tourism destinations.

Though the planners in Kerala are trying to ape and recreate a Dubai or Singapore in its port city of Cochin, it is the charm of rural kerala-its hills, lakes, greenery and life-renewing ayurveda that is beckoning the world to it.

In Kerala, the Nature is always in ecstasy.

Clinton, Blow Job and AIDS

The deadly sexual disease AIDS is becoming a political tool. Aids Eradication is fast becoming a money spinning NGO business. The population of HIV-infected is growing in numbers; there is misery, trauma and all round anxiety in society.

Histrically backward societies as Africa and parts of Asia are grappling with this menace and do not have the resources to combat it and safeguard its manpower from this epidemic.

Many big companies are using AIDS as an opportunity in brand building too. Microsoft, promised some 1 billion US dollars to India to fight AIDS.

But the larger issue of driving up awareness is not happening very much. The myth is unlimited sex, unsafe sex and homosex all causing AIDS.

But then sex is a natural instinct like hunger; how long one can suppress it?.
In marriages, do we ensure medical checks so that the partners are ensure as not HIV infected. Will a man bother to use condom, when a fair woman offers an one night stand or a quickie? Will a jigolo (men getting paid for sex with woman) refuse a client fearing AIDs?

Even Bill Clinton did not dither when his lady asssiatnt was willing for a blow job, without ever bothering about her HIV status. Passion is hot; AIDS is CRUEL.

Murky Mornings

Oh, It's early morning; two sips of cup of hot coffee haven't kicked up my energy levels for the day. I wonder what Osama bin Laden would be doing to keep himself in a high state of energy? How is the world's biggest living terrorist (as designated by the US of A) still giving sleepless nights to USA and CIA despite its military? Why is Al Jazeera doting Laden ?

Can he actually abstain from his sexual pleasures, family yearnings and sentiments and live for jihad ever?

A young journo like me, in late thirties, still feeling drowsy from a late night party's hangover! So Osama crept to mind as a wonder man who is painted as the most alert man in the world and braving all surveillance and hunting. Cool.

It's just a matter to be pondered loud ; why the combined might of military, CIA, Mr Bush's brainy planning are turning turtle at Osama. Who is funding Osama? Is he a facade or just a pawn of someone more powerful? Or Osama a myth created to perpetuate military domination in select areas?

I believe human beings are emotional and there are limits beyond which they can't go. But Osama defies logic and is a mystery.

These were morning thoughts in random. Vow,, the newspaper boy is coming. May I read the hot news....
