Saad Khan – Participant who died in Unilever’s Reality Show

In their quest to produce a western kind of thrilling and adventurous reality show, Poor and substandard arrangements have become the reason of the killing of a boy Saad Khan.

Saad Khan lost his life in the recording of the show when the host Amina Sheikh (the model of Clear Shampoo) gave an under water challenge to him. The boy lost his control and shouted for help but the lame safety and lifeline measures failed to rescue him up and the young man, the father of four had to suffer.

The blame straight goes to the producers of the show which are Unilever and Mindshare for hiring such a sub standard team and the cheap arrangements that became the cause of death of the boy. For now, the mainstream media has rejected to air any such news as they get a fair amount of advertising business from Unilever. And spokespersons of these two companies have been shamelessly calling the incident a mere accident.

Mansoor Khan, the cousin of the victim demands that “ALL CONCERNED PEOPLE OF UNILEVER & MINDSHARE MUST BE PUT BEHIND BARS.”

Mansoor doesn’t want you people to boycott Unilever Products, all he wants is that the culprits who gambled with the life of the participant must be brought to the court of justice.

Saad has left a widow and 4 kids:

Oldest one is 7 years old, then twins of age 5.5 and then the youngest who is only 1.5 years of age. (by Teeth Blog)

Beware of the side effects of artificially lowering blood pressure

For most people, high blood pressure is a sign that the circulatory system (blood pipes) are partially obstructed and inelastic, and that the heart must pump blood at a higher pressure to reach the far corners of the body.

Reducing high blood pressure with drugs or treatments without correcting the underlying problem means that the circulatory system does not have enough pressure to send blood to the far corners of the body. Over time, portions of the brain, kidneys, toes, and parts far away from the main arteries begin to die because they lack food and oxygen.

Usually, drugs treat something wrong. For example, AIDS drugs attempt to suppress the AIDS virus. For insulin dependent diabetics (Type I), insulin drugs replace the insulin that the pancreas is supposed to make. Cancers are diseased cells that must be killed ASAP using drugs or radiation or surgery or other therapy. In contrast to these and many other conditions that respond well to drug therapy, high blood pressure is usually not a disease but a sign of something wrong with the circulation. High blood pressure increases the risk of a vessel breaking and causing a stroke or other trouble

When the vessels are under high blood pressure all the time, they are likely to break. A broken vessel in the brain causes a stroke that damages the brain. An artery under high pressure may break inside the body (causing internal bleeding), and can damage the heart, the kidney, and other organs.

When the pressure is very high, it must be reduced as soon as possible to prevent breaking an artery. Thus, drugs can be an appropriate treatment until other approaches (weight loss, diet) take effect. Otherwise, in most cases, blood pressure can be reduced slowly with appropriate diet and exercise. Treatments that lower blood pressure without correcting the circulation problem may have undesirable side effects

There are many treatments for high blood pressure. It is fairly easy to identify those that seek to correct the reason why the body is pumping blood at high pressure, and those that merely seek to stop the body from pumping blood at high pressure.

Weight loss and special diets seek to reduce the stress of the circulatory system, and clean up the arteries. When the body is smaller (slimmer) and/or the arteries are more elastic and clean, and the blood is more fluid (does not stick too much), then the blood flows better and the heart does not need to increase its pressure for the blood to reach everywhere. These treatments are effective because they correct the reason for high blood pressure and make it easier for the body to feed itself. They have practically no side effects, and are likely to improve brain and heart function.

Treatments such as acupuncture or drugs usually lower blood pressure by either changing the way the heart works, or by changing how the blood vessels respond (for example, dilating the vessels). Dilating the vessels is no substitute for cleaning the vessels, although it may be a temporary solution. Dilating the vessels can be risky if a vessel breaks.

There are some people that have a disease that causes high blood pressure, such as a tumor or unusual genetic factors. In those individuals, blood pressure may need to be treated with drugs.

We do have an effective treatment for high blood pressure: be slim (eat less, exercise more) and eat a mixture of lean protein and essential fats.

“India” the worlds most terror-prone country in the world: Report

India is one of the world’s most terror-prone countries, with a death toll second only to Iraq, said a report by the National Counter-terrorism Center in Washington, published in one of the renowned US magazine on Sunday.

In the report it is said that India is at constant war with separatists and Maoists rebels. But when it comes to Islamic extremism, New Delhi has always blamed foreign influence-usually Pakistan’s. With reason: the militants fighting for Kashmir’s independence have extensive links to Pakistan or Bangladesh, where they have set up camps and been nurtured by local intelligence services.

It is said that there are 317 terrorists camps operating in India and it is feared that India will divide into many states by 2025 due to separatists’ movements.

The message claimed the attacks were the work of the Indian Mujahedin (IM): a terrorists group unheard of before November 2007, when it took credit for coordinated bombings in three northern cities.

The group also claimed responsibility for lethal attacks in Jaipur in May and Ahmadabad in July, and it’s suspected of a similar attacks in Bangalore. When the IM first appeared, experts thought it was just a front for one of India’s known, foreign-sponsored terrorists outfits. But that view has since shifted, and many Indians now fear their country is developing its own hometown Islamic terror problem and that Jihadists are finding more and more recruits.

Report said that the IM’s command-and-control seems to be totally local. “ says Bahukutumi Raman, a former top official with India’s Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), New Delhi’s foreign-intelligence branch. So are its grievances, he argues. In e-mails to the Indian media, the IM has denounced the country’s discrimination against its Muslim minority and expressed its desire to avenge the 2002 anti-Muslim pogroms in Gujarat and the destruction of a 16th-Century mosque by Hindu fanatics in 1992.

It is added that after the July Ahmadabad attack, the IM insisted that the operation was planned and executed by Indians only and it urged Pakistan linked groups not to claim responsibility for it. The IM never even mentioned Kashmir-the central concern of most foreign-linked terrorists.

It is further disclosed in the report that more ominous, perhaps, is the fact that several people arrested after the Ahmadabad blasts reportedly told authorities they’d attended paramilitary camps in India-not in Pakistan or Bangladesh.

Authorities now fear these camps, in the remote forests of Kerala (In India’s southwest), and in Madhya Pradesh (In India’s heartland), have trained hundreds of radicalized Indians in the past few years.

The exact nature of the IM remains an enigma, however. Most of those arrested are members of the students’ Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), a radical group formed in the late 1970s that advocates turning the country into an Islamic state. The government banned SIMI in 2001 for alleged links to terrorism. But in August a Delhi court ruled the government had failed to prove its case.

Michael Jackson death ruled as homicide

The Los Angeles County Coroner Friday ruled the June 25 death of Michael Jackson a homicide and said that the pop star died of “acute intoxication” by the anaesthetic propofol.

“The manner of death has been ruled homicide,” the coroner said in a statement. “Cause of death was established as acute propofol intoxication. Other conditions contributing to death: benzodiazepine.

The drugs propofol and Lorazepam were found to be the primary drugs responsible for Mr. Jackson’s death. Other drugs detected were midazolam, diazepam, lidocaine, and ephedrine.”

However Jackson’s physician Dr Conrad Murray, who administered the drugs to help Jackson battle insomnia, has already been identified in police documents as the target of a manslaughter investigation

Irrfan Khan stuns Dia by kissing her on lips

When it comes to thorough professionalism, you can always bet on Irrfan Khan, the versatile actor who has earned a place in Hollywood with ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ and ‘A Mighty Heart.’

Even when the script doesn’t demand it, he goes extra mile to make a scene more realistic. And this exactly happened while Irrfan was shooting with Dia Mirza for the film ‘Acid factory.’ Irrfan Khan planted a kiss on Dia Mirza’s lips even though the scene required him only to give a peck on her cheek.

The incident took place in a scene where Irrfan has to kiss Dia on her cheek to give a cue to Fardeen that he’s her man, when she introduces Irrfan to Fardeen Khan.

However, a shocked Dia didn’t create any uproar on the sets and instead called up the producer Sanjay Gupta after the shoot. When Sanjay actually showed the rushes, he quite liked it and believed it only made the scene more real.

‘She used me for sex’

Katie Price a.k.a. Jordan’s Latino lover has revealed that the glamour model likes to get intimate in the dark.

Brazilian banker Andre Pinto, who had a passionate fling with the 31-year-old star after they met on the Spanish party island Ibiza, also revealed that Jordan doesn’t like lovers touching her breasts.

Pinto has also claimed that Jordan only used him as a ‘sex toy’ to help her get over her split from husband Peter Andre earlier in 2009.

“She used me for sex. She always said she didn’t want a proper relationship. She treated me as a sex toy when it suited her and then dumped me,
