Sometimes a woman’s pleasure is the pleasure the man feels.
- Monica Bellucci’s character Alex in the French film Irreversible

Tired as we are of Indian movie junk like Vettaikaran, Action Replayy, Enthiran et al, this evening we poured ourselves a large gin and plonked down to watch the French film Irreversible via Netflix streaming.

Be warned now all ye schmucks.

Irreversible is not for the squeamish and certainly not for the desi chutias who come only at the sight of our worthless Indian starlets flaunting their titties, thighs and other parts of their anatomy. There’s plenty of violence and lots of nudity here.

A French film that debuted in 2002, Irreversible is directed by Gaspar Noé and features strong performances by its three main characters Vince Cassel, Monica Bellucci and Albert Dupontel.

Besides the intense violence, full nudity, a graphic rape scene and racially charged dialogs, Irreversible is also different in its non-linear narrative structure that has the movie moving along in reverse chronological sequence. Continue reading »

Just like some humans monsters (think Hitler, think Stalin, think Narendar Modi and think all Republicans) should never have been born, some New Jersey Indian restaurants dumpsters like Sankalp Edison should never have seen the light of the day.

Folks, if you think Sankalp in South Plainfield is bad then Sankalp Green South Indian vegetarian on Oak Tree Road in Edison is a million times worse.

Sankalp Edison - Awful South Indian FoodTrashy South Indian Food – Not for Humans

Sankalp Edison – Taste of Garbage

Simply put, the Sankalp bozos at the Edison outpost can’t cook. Not if their life depended on it.

Must be our bad Karma that dragged us to this fake South Indian restaurant the other day.

We were born and grew up in South India and if we know anything at all in life it’s South Indian food.

And what Sankalp Edison serves is not South Indian food. Not by a long mile.

Stones or Bullets

In several decades of eating South Indian food not once have we come across such a hard Medhu Vada. A complete textural catastrophe.

Sankalp’s Medhu Vadas were so hard they could easily be substituted for stones in New Jersey construction sites or cut into small pieces and used as bullets against the Taliban in Afghanistan. Seriously. Continue reading »

You folks remember Tim Berners-Lee?

Hey, the guy is the inventor of the World Wide Web, the greatest thing of the 20th century and it’s fair to presume he knows a thing or two about the Web.

In a recent article in Scientific American, Sir Tim Berners-Lee warns of the threats to the Web from different corners and how like Democracy the Web needs defending to prevent it from being ‘broken into fragmented islands.’

Among the threats Berners-Lee identifies are cable television, social networking sites, snooping and attempts to strike at the idea of net neutrality:

The Web as we know it, however, is being threatened in different ways. Some of its most successful inhabitants have begun to chip away at its principles. Large social-networking sites are walling off information posted by their users from the rest of the Web. Wireless Internet providers are being tempted to slow traffic to sites with which they have not made deals. Governments—totalitarian and democratic alike—are monitoring people’s online habits, endangering important human rights.

On social networking sites like Facebook, LinkedIn and Friendster, Berners-Lee writes: Continue reading »
