I couldn't watch past the first 7 mins of it, soporific sociology dining room chatter made interesting cuz a French girl is studying. btw when I was in Chicago a girl from minn was studying tyagaraja kritis.

How many minutes of it did you tolerate?

I am interested in history so I watched all of it. it gives a fresh, welcome perspective that narratives coming out of AP dont provide, which are always partisan.

it didnt hurt that she has the prettiest eyes

you COULD ask propa but knowing his personality he will not oblige.
you have several advantages: you have an ex you can fool around with whenever you want, you control the button. you have children you can have fun with and you can be secure knowing that you are loved. you have a job which gives you some knowledge of the world as well as financial independence. you should get to know some nice men and do what you want with them, go out, plan trips, play tennis, have fun, make friends and move on. and tracy, please go shopping and tell us all about it.

yes you are right about this part. i was mostly talking about the advantage of gult men liking non-gults women. i don't have that advantage mostly coz i don't care for it.

no that's not what i meant Sad i didn't 'settle back for XH'. We are not 'back together'. We are good friends, roomies and co-parents. I simply gave up the idea of having a boyfriend. Not gonna go looking for anyone. Have lost all interest. Besides, will be too much to explain to kids. Will screw them up, and even if not them, will definitely screw their dad up. Also, I became such a homebody in last one year, tough to go out by myself too.

ben-bab-a'ali sounds like an algerian name, and she looks like the algerian woman she probably is. and she probably knows much more about andhra pradesh and your caste than you do.

Could be. There are many Hyderabadi moslems married to Turkish, Iranian, and Arab gals/guys.

i wonder if those hyderabadi muslims have as many connections to france, the french language, and french universities as algerians do, and if they speak english with a french accent.

no actually she's not that algerian-looking. until she opened her mouth i thought she was telugu. and i trust you'll agree with me that learning about andhra pradesh or my caste is of no use to me. i'm not going back to a country if i cannot walk on its streets at 7pm without fear of losing my treasured chastity.

a lot of people in france are of german origin and have german last names, they speak both french and german and if you're educated you end up speaking english too. for her the algerian french german english part is easily explained. now learning hindi and telugu commendable.

She does sound like an Arab speaking English, not a French person speaking English. I had an Egyptian Copt and a Syrian Christian (i.e., really from Syria) colleagues in the past, and this woman sounds like them.

someone kept a dead parrot on my usual seat in college first year. But someone else informed me of it before we were to go back to the classroom after practicals. Ran upstairs with him and my only girl classmate/friend, saw the dead parrot, got all hot faced and went out of the class until the two of them removed the parrot and cleaned up. Then I went in and sat there before others came in. Escaped public humiliation and drama, but boy was that the moment i wondered why people hated me so much.

Looks like most of you have watched the video and have lot of.opinions about the presentation. when you come around to those comments i promise to read all of them.

the impression i got was she did some real leg work and some reading. information quoted by her seems to be factual. it is commendable that she did so much background work.

having said that i must say that she did not uncover or provide any new facts that were already not known to most people.
i have to disagree with many conclusions she drew from the known facts.
telangana agricultural land grab is not a credible argument. facts do not support such claims. migration, i thought, was a sign of progressive thinking. she makes that into an argument for economic exploitation.

she be a major league communisto leftie (as most academics are, particularly euro academics) fighting the system, whatver the system maybe, in the mold of arundhati roy, so not surprising she views anything and everything as exploitative.

Janice, how did you come to this conclusion?

you ask that question as if she has a history of having well thought out opinions based on fact.
No. But I expect her answer to be most amusing.

Agree on both points. More about her conclusions later.

yes you are right about this part. i was mostly talking about the advantage of gult men liking non-gults women. i don't have that advantage mostly coz i don't care for it.

i'd rather you surprise me.

why wimmens always wanting to be surprised? you know what would be surprising? you come home to discover that someone left a big steaming pile of dump on your coffee table. that would probably make your day
and you know this cuz ...you have a glow-in-the-dark piglet that leaves you this gift every morning?

There is evidence that selfish interests limit good movies in tollywood. It is true of most Indian language movie industries.
an argument can be made on why certain irrigation projects were taken up earlier than others.

As I said earlier, agricultural land grab in telangana is an illogical argument based on barrowed ideas.
similar lazy analysis is also found in the claim that tdp was more harsh on extreme left movement. Any one who studied 60s and 70s across India and 70s in ap and ysr govt after 2004 can easily see that ruthless suppression of extreme left was a govt policy with varying degrees of effectiveness based govt efficiency.
real estate land grab in hyd is another false allegation. One it is not limited to any one group. Also the story is the same in all major metropolis.

Biggest nonsense is the media control statement. Every media industry is subjected to intense competetion and survived only as long as they have consumer support.
