Save Our Tigers. How?

I've seen the ads supported by Aircel for the Save Our Tigers campaign.

I'd like to do something and support the initiative, and they say blogging is one of the ways to do it, so here goes, but what happens after that?

I doubt that anyone blogging or reading a blog will have any objection to saving tigers--they're probably already really sensitized to the issue. The campaign isn't quite clear about what the actual problem is, and how it plans to solve the livelihood issues of those villagers who poach and hunt tigers.

The Save the Tiger campaign plans to raise funds, but doesn't the government have enough funds already? This article says the government has Rs. One Lakh Crore funds unspent each year.

So I certainly don't want to send more money to Project Tiger. What can I do?

Unhealthy Obsession

start rant

What is this obsession with height, colour, etc.?

The TV is full of ads with claims of their "nutritional drink" being the best health drink to "increase the height of kids"! WTF?

What's wrong with being short? One ad says, "Kids always like to be tall.. so, use blah blah." Umm... kids also like playing in the dirt, and eating chocolate as their sole means of survival, lady!

How tall is the greatest cricketer ever? Or the Father of the Nation? Or Picasso? C'mon people--it is more repulsive than the fairness cream ads, honestly.

And parents better beware--if something increases your growth inordinately, doesn't it stand to reason that it probably has growth hormones in it?
