Moscow: Delegation from the Laos Buddhist-Socualist Republic Visits Russia! (23.5.2023)

Comrade Santisuk Simmaravong expressed his gratitude for the invitation and highly appreciated the attention and honour received from the Russian-Lao Friendship Association and the Russian Peace Fund! This gratitude especially recognises the important contribution of made by Mr. Alexander Lvov – a famous Russian Photographer who travelled to the important and famous places in Laos between February 4th and March 3rd 2023. During this time, he took the excellent photographs of the most beautiful Laotian places – which were then exhibited in Moscow for the Russian people to see how ‘beautiful’ Laos is! This Exhibition will surely encourage tourism to Laos – a country which welcomes ALL visitors!

1870: Britain’s First Victorian Bicycle Club! (22.5.2023)

If the ‘Playing Fields of Eton’ produced the victors at Waterloo – the slums of London, Manchester and Birmingham (which produced the working class Army of Wellington) certainly could NOT produce those who could ‘pedal’ a rather crude bicycle (by today’s standards) and safely navigate this device whilst travelling much slower than ten miles an hour! Still, once the ‘class’ parameters were firmly established – what was such a progressive organisation to be called?

Crooked Asana: When Far-Right “Yogis” Attack! (17.5.2023)

With the far-right (fascist) BJP Hindu Nationalists currently in charge of the government of India – all kinds of cultural and ideological perversions are taking place both within and outside of India! I suspect that normal Indians are just trying to “sit this out” – whilst they wait for normalcy to return to the public face of India’s ancient physical and spiritual culture! Of course, the iconology of the world religion cannot be copyrighted (as it is generally acknowledged that such material belongs to the cause of freely bettering humanity) – but this is not the case with Bikram Choudhury (born 1944) – who has instructed his lawyers to “copyright” the postures (“Asana”) of Yoga which he uses on a daily basis during his exercise classes! This approach would be similar to “copyrighting” the Christian “Cross” or the Chinese “Yin-Yang” (Taiji) Symbol! Normally, this cannot be done, but Bikram Choudhury certainly thinks that he now “owns” the ancient (and “common”) Yoga postures he routinely teaches. Of course, behind the scenes, Bikram Choudhury does not practice “Yoga” – but hires a team of Nutritionists, Physicians, Dieticians and Keep-Fit Experts (from all over the world) who are tasked with keeping him “in shape”! Bikram Choudhury then falsely presents the resulting “physique” (again – “not gay”) to the unsuspecting general public as being the product of the “inactivity” routinely associated with Yoga-practice! Bikram Choudhury teaches that breathing “deeply” whilst “sitting still” are the keys to acquiring an all-round, medically acknowledged level of psychological and physical fitness! His endless “criminality” has seen him flee back to the BJP India (in 2016)! Similar to his student Scott Paul Beierle – Bikram Choudhury has been accused of running a cult for purposes of committing sexual harassment, sexual assault and rape whilst perpetuating the ideology of racism (against non-White and non-Indian people – a typical BJP attitude), homophobia, fraud and immigration violations!

New Zealand: Victor Penny Experiments – Real or Imaginery? (15.5.2023)

The nature of the invention is known
to very few people in New Zealand, but it
is believed that like several inventors in
Europe, he hopes to be able to prove to
the satisfaction of tbe defence authorities
that he can project a powerful electric
current in the form of an invisible ray,
without wires, to stop men or aeroplanes
and paralyse transport. Experiments
with this object are said to have been
partly successful over a short distance.
Penny has now left the island, but is coninuing his work secretly.
