Broadband Internet A Legal Right In Finland – When Will India Have On
2009-10-20 09:33:00
(With inputs by Abhishek Kapoor) In the era of stringent Tweeting bans compared to performance drug tests, this news will not come as a shock to many. An unshakable belief in something without need for a proof or evidence could be the importance of internet in each one’s life today. With India working up their internet penetration in the rural areas, it would achieve 20 million broadband users by 2010. Now we are at the end of 2009 and the TRAI latest numbers suggest that broadband penetration in India has just about managed to reach 6.8 million subscribers. Even countries of the European Union seem to be deeming high-speed internet as a vital human right. Recently in news, Finland legally mandated fast internet access to all it’s citizens and is the first to do so. Even the United Nations have okayed this particular move, where a universal service should be every citizen’s right. The minimum mandatory speed in Finland currently needs to be 1 megabit per second, b...

Etat Libre d?Orange Tom of Finland ~ fragrance review
2008-06-04 23:44:00
According to État Libre d?Orange and the Tom of Finland Foundation, Touko Laaksonen (a.k.a. Tom of Finland) ?was one of the most influential artists of the last century? and before he began creating his beefcake illustrations in the 1950s, gay men went around lisping and limp-wristed, dressed in chiffon or dandy garb or they huddled ? scared, bony and uptight ? in dark corners, nervously adjusting their ties, cardigans and horn-rimmed specs. In other words, gay life, pre-Tom of Finland, was full of flamers and nerds. Perhaps Tom of Finland?s aesthetic influenced the world of fashion (and ?gym culture?) for some gay men who hopped onto his brawny bandwagon and dressed in tight jeans and t-shirts, leather boots and jackets. État Libre d?Orange Tom of Finland was created by perfumer Antoine Lie and contains aldehydes, lemon, birch leaves, cypress, galbanum, pine, suede, musk, gray amber, pepper, saffron, tonka bean, iris, geranium, vanilla, vetiver, and styrax. Men, as you spray on To...
