[ MY BANGALORE, AN URBAN DEMOGRAPHIC NIGHTMARE ]
How Bangalore went from cosy town to an urban nightmare, thanks to a gladiatorial IT boom.
Unlike Silicon Valley, why did modernity and enterprise make Bangalore unbearable.
Before anyone knew what was happening, Bangalore became the global leader
in Business Process Outsourcing. The world quickly realized that skilled staff
at salaries of one-quarter to one-tenth of standard rates in the West was not
Bangalore’s principal attraction—wunderkinds abounded in the region capable
of handling any challenge from any quarter. Companies like Intel, Microsoft
and Cisco Systems picked the city for their advanced R&D projects. An army of whizz-kids soon emerged to turn Bangalore into India’s start-up
capital as well. Bangalore acquired a newly prosperous, even bohemian, aura.
The speed at which information technology altered the sociology as well as the
economy produced an inevitable backlash. While intellectuals such as
U. R. Ananthamurthy cautioned about newly created problems of identity,
local activists questioned what was Bangalore and who was a Bangalorean.
There were campaigns for jobs for Kannadigas. There were protests against
Hindi signboards. The problem was that IT transformed Bangalore in ways earlier
bouts of industrialization and immigration had not. The old agreeable Bangalore was now replaced by an aggressive Bangalore where
no one had time for his neighbours. Everyone was chasing success as measured by
a new consumerist value system. A gladiator culture took over with the spirit of
combat as its perennial feature. If the pre-IT immigrants made an effort to merge
into Bangalore, the new combatants were too disparate to try. They remained
Punjabis, Rajasthanis, Gujaratis and UP-Biharis, Americans, Canadians, Europeans
and Latin Americans, Africans, Middle Easterners, Japanese, Koreans and Thais.
What overwhelmed Whitefield and Sarjapur were only the high points of what plagued
Bangalore as a whole. Cosy Town turned international melting pot, Bangalore’s
face turned ugly. California’s Bay Area did not lose its charm when Silicon Valley became a land
of miracles. Neither did Boston. Why did modernity and enterprise make Bangalore
unbearable? The answer was that Bangalore’s elected leaders, administrators and
builders disobeyed Kempe Gowda’s mother. When the fabled founder of Bangalore
set out to build his dream capital in the 1530s, his mother gave him two
instructions: ‘Keregalam kattu, marangalam nedu (Build lakes, plant trees)’. Gowda made a hundred lakes and lined the pathways with wide, leafy trees.
Politicians and land dealers of modern times were born to different kinds of
mothers. In about three decades they filled up 2,000 hectares of lakes, and,
in the late 2000s alone, felled 50,000 trees. Under their earth movers and
power saws, the urban sprawl expanded until the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara
Palike (BBMP) became the largest municipal corporation in the country.
The population density rose to 12,000 persons per square kilometre.
The Bangalore Development Authority’s Revised Master Plan estimated that
the population count would cross 20 million. Small wonder then that in Electronic City land prices rose by 300 per cent in
about ten years. According to popular statistics, Bangalore had more potholes
and dangerous medians per kilometre than any other city. Two of them were patched
up by the authorities. In June 2015, artist Baadal Nanjundaswamy noticed a water-
filled pothole, unusually large even by Bangalore standards, in the crowded
Sultanpalya area. He painted its edges in greens and blues, planted a few blades
of grass in strategic spots and then brought in a life-size rubber crocodile to
frolic in the water. A year earlier Nanjundaswamy was appalled by the sight of a
road median the detached granite blocks of which had become a danger to motorists.
He turned that too into an art installation, the granite blocks shining in bright
colours with flower stalks and green leaves growing out of them. Locals gathered
to admire the street art on both occasions. Municipal authorities moved in fast,
filled the pothole and straightened the median. Citizens who criticized them for
being anti-art were pacified by those who pointed to the reassuring sense of shame
displayed by the authorities. Through it all Bangalore acquired more than a hundred slums accommodating 2
million people. New-Age gladiators appeared from nowhere and from everywhere
to take care of slum management and allied businesses. In 2014, Bangalore
ranked second in the number of murders (Delhi was first), third in robberies
(after Delhi and Bombay) and third in dacoity cases (after Pune and Delhi).
In this urban demographic nightmare, it was inevitable that group rivalries,
linguistic antagonisms and cultural confrontations would become a part of life.
Local voices often rose against outsiders, especially outsiders who stood out
as outsiders. The IT boom and other forces of rapid change had altered Bangalore from within,
as though unseen hands had reconstituted its DNA. It used to be a city in peace
with itself. It was now a bundle of contradictions, a battleground of competing
constituencies, where going forward resembles going backward. Knocked off balance
by the weight of its own growth, Bangalore was askew. The hand of the potter did
shake when the IT chip hit him.Excerpted with the permission of Aleph Book Company from the book Askew: A Short
Biography of Bangalore by T. J. S. George.

Making Limoncello Liqueur From Scratch.
What is Limoncello?
Limoncello (pronounced lee-muhn-CHELL-oh) is a liqueur from southern Italy made with lemons, vodka, water, and sugar. It's served ice cold in tiny, thin glasses as an after dinner aperitif, or digestivo. Only the zest is used to make this delicious drink. It has no bitterness at all, in fact, it is most refreshing!
Lemon Peels in Vodka.
10 lemons, just peels, no pith (I've seen anywhere from 8-17 in various recipes)
3 cups water
3 cups vodka
1.) Don't worry about getting too picky about your lemon zest, the syrup that you'll be mixing in later will disguise any minor bitterness brought by a little pith.
2.) Pour the vodka over your peels. This part isn't precise, your basically marinating here. Every recipe is different with regards to this. Lemons are strong, they won't let you down.
3.) Let this sit for at least a week. They won't turn bad in the high-alcohol environs of the vodka.
4.) When the vodka smells refreshing and citrus-y and you're ready to make the syrup, boil the water and sugar (stirring to prevent any sugar scorching on the bottom of the pan.). Reduce this to a simmer, dissolving to a thin syrup. Set this aside to cool.
5.) Strain the vodka from the peels. Dry or compost your peels. Julienned and dried, you may yet use them in myriad recipes.
6.) Stir together the lemon-flavored vodka with the cooled syrup. Bottle and age for a few more weeks.
Cocktail Recipes With Limoncello
1 1/2 oz. Limoncello
3 oz. Orange Juice
Serve over ice with a dash of grenadine syrup.
Limoncello Ice Cream
3 Cups Good Vanilla Ice Cream
1/2 cup Limoncello
Blend and serve. Garnish with lemon zest.
Cherry Lemonade
1 1/2 oz. Limoncello
1 1/2 oz. Cherry Vodka
2 oz. Lemon Sour
Shake and serve over ice.
Lady Cello
1 oz. Limoncello
1 oz. Rum
1/2 oz. Lemon Juice
Sugar
1 tsp. Grenadine
Shake with ice. Serve with sugar-rimmed glass. Garnish with cherry.
Limoncello Baba
8 cups Flour
4 cups Butter
12 Eggs
1/2 cup Honey
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 cup Corn Syrup
1 cup Limoncello
Preheat oven to 400°F. Mix all the ingredients, (except for the syrup and the limoncello) into a smooth batter. Pour this mix into 12 cupcake papers. Bake for 25 minutes. Mix the syrup and the limoncello together. Soak the cupcakes. Serve these chilled. Serves twelve.
Trying Other Options
I had some vodka left after pouring it over my lemon peels. I had a small yield this year with my plum tree, (after two amazing years of fruit!) so I opted to pit a few into a jar and pour the vodka that was left over these. These took a bit longer to steep than did the lemon peels, but in time they emited a lovely, rich, fruity smell. Next time I may add a clove or ginger root and a slice of apple, or a vanilla bean and a lemon peel. I may be onto a great gift idea.
Experiment with fruits, herbs, and spices. Fill your jars or bottles with fruit, but take it slow, perhaps, with your spices. Keep notes and refer to these as you may or may not wish to keep, or tweak a recipe.
This recipe would be delicious with orange peels or lime peels. Think of an orange-vanilla combination, or lime-mango-mint. The possibilites are fun and refeshing to think about, and people will be asking for more of your delightful liqueurs year after year!

[ Vastu for your Home.][ Vastu and Building Formulae by Niranjan Babu Bangalore ]
Ayadi is a group of six formulae Aya, Vyaya, Yoni, Rksha, Vara and Tithi that are used to determine the dimensional conformance of a building. The six formulae are divided in to three sets and each set consists of two formulae. A specific set of formulae is used to work out the length, breadth and height of the building or the structure. The length and breadth are the outer measurements of the foundation (bhumilamba) or its base (adhistana). The height of the building is considered to be from the bottom of the foundation or the bottom of the base to the topmost point of the building. The remainder obtained by using these formulae determines the gain or loss accruing, the constellation compatibility and the lunar and solar days that conduce to one's well being.
Vastu Shastra clearly emphasizes the importance of orienting the constructions to the cardinal directional. Therefore, the orientation of the building to be one of the four cardinal directions (north, east, south or west). As far as possible, buildings facing angular directions are to be avoided. But in rare situations, if the site is oriented in the angular directions, the orientation (or Yoni) formulae can be worked out in such a way so that the remainder is 1. The ancient masters were aware of the power of monsoon winds and other energies (physical and metaphysical). These energies were also considered in the orientation and construction of the buildings.
The unit of measurement used is generally the Kisku Hasta that equals 24 angulas. The hasta conversion is done diversely in different regions. One school of thought equates a hasta to two feet and nine inches and an angula to 1 3/8th inch. Another school of thought equates a hasta to 72 cm (28.3 inches) and an angula to 3 cm (1.2 inches). Here, the hasta is measured from the shoulder to the tip of the middle finger.
A third school of thought, which this writer follows, equates a hasta to 18 inches (and an angula to 0.75 inches) Here, hasta is the length of the arm from the bottom of the elbow to the tip of the middle finger. The Ayadi Shadvarga is calculating by taking any of the standardized hasta measurements or using the actual hasta length of either the master, his/her spouse, eldest son or the architect (or contractor) designing the house.
Further research on the definition or usage of the Hasta measurement is needed to specifically determine whether 18 inches, 2.75 feet, 72 cm or the actual arm length from the elbow (or the shoulder) to the tip of the middle finger is appropriate. This scribe generally uses the 18-inch Hasta, based on measuring the distance from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger.
Manasara recommends working out nine different lengths and breadths and five heights for a building. The Yoni formula defining the breadth measurement very clearly reinforces the importance of proper orientation. Most religious buildings, palaces, cities, villages and roads of ancient India and many other parts of the world faced the cardinal directions. In fact, the Giza and Great pyramids of Egypt are oriented to the north
The table below summarizes the six formulae.
Aya = Remainder of Length x 8 / 12 Vyaya = Remainder of Breadth x 9 / 10 Rksha (Nakshatra)= Remainder of Length x 8/27 Yoni = Remainder of Breadth x 3 / 8 Vara = Remainder of Height x 9 / 7 Tithi = Remainder of Height x 9/ 30Table 1
Vastu regulates the primary elements in an enclosure with reference to its length, breadth and height. By having the dimensions worked out using the Ayadi formulae, the residents can, to a certain extent, experience material and spiritual awareness. Living in such spaces can contribute harmony with the gross (sthoola) and subtle (sookshma) energies leading to both physical and metaphysical well being of the individual(s).
Aya, also known as aadhayam, means income and Vyaya means loss or expenditure. When these formulae are applied Aya should be greater than Vyaya (Ayam Adhikyam, Vyayam Hinam) in order that the dimensions worked out positively energizes the structure or building.
The Yoni and Rksha (Nakshatra) formulae are applied for finding the breadth of the building. The Yoni formula should be worked out to always get an odd remainder.
Angular Orientation Relative Cardinal Direction Yoni Number Northeast East Dhwaja 1 Southeast South Simha 3 Southwest West Vrshaba 5 Northwest North Gaja 7The 1, 3, 5 and 7 remainders are referred to as Dhwaja, Simha, Vrshabha and Gaja indicating the directions East, South, West and North, respectively. Generally orientation to any direction can have the Dhwaja Yoni worked out. The Yoni can be calculated, for sites not oriented to the cardinal directions, based on the above table.
The Rksha (or Nakshatra) formula should be worked out such that the remainder indicates a constellation that is compatible to the master's (or spouse's) constellation.
The height of the building can be fixed based on the Vara and Tithi formulae. After calculating the negative or paisacha zones of the site, the proposed length of the available space is converted into hasta and then the formulae applied. An example, utilizing the various formulae, is given below:
Consider a site measuring 45 feet by 63 feet. We first find the paisacha or non-habitable area by dividing each side into nine parts. On the 63 feet side, the paisacha works out to 7 feet each on either side giving us 49 feet of Vastu approved land for construction. On the other side of 45 feet, the non-habitable area works out to 5 feet on either side and we have 35 feet of Vastu compatible land for construction.
The Ayadi table given in the end of the article is worked out equating a hasta to 1.5 feet or 18'. The formulae can be applied to both rooms (inner) and buildings (outer).
Let us now look at the Aya and Rksha (E and F) columns to arrive at the proper length. Aya for 49 feet works out to 9 and Rksha works out to 18 (Jyeshta). If we need a smaller measurement we can accordingly trace a dimension that gives higher figure of Aya and a compatible figure of Rksha.
Divide the 27 constellations into three sets of nine each and count the nakshatra obtained from your nakshatra. The count as per following table indicates the compatibility or otherwise.
Count from your Nakshatra - Referred to as - Indicates 1 Janma Danger 2 Sampath Wealth and Prosperity 3 Vipath Danger, Loss, Accidents 4 Kshema Prosperity 5 Pratyak Obstacles 6 Sadhana Realization of Ambitions 7 Naidhana Danger 8 Mitra Favorable 9 Parama Mitra Very Favorable
Let us now arrive at the proper breadth dimension by referring to columns G and H. Locate the nearest measurement to 35 and check on its compatible Vyaya and Yoni. The table indicates dimensions 32.5 and 32.25 showing the Yoni as 1 and Vyaya as 5 & 4 respectively.
On similar lines the height of the building can also be identified from the table. Where normal foundation is used, the height from its base can be considered and for pillar foundation, the height from the bottom of its base over which the building is constructed can be considered. The height is with reference to the highest point of the building be it the overhead tank or the skylight of the building. The columns to be referred to are I and J.
The dimensions of length, breadth and height can be worked out for residential and business buildings, layouts, religious buildings, swimming pools and underground and overhead water tanks too.
It would be indeed be a contribution to the people if city developers and builders allot sites to the public with the dimensions worked out on at least three formulae, viz., Aya, Vyaya and Yoni.

My Dreams & My Home.
My Dream my home and my dream life,how it went till now and where it will take me is interesting indeed.
First Home,it was a room shared by 3 other colleagues and I was admitted as the 4th,these 3 were living in a house which had a small veranda and a kitchen.This kitchen was used by a senior college and other 3 of us had no admission in to this place.Even water was given by the senior and we 3 had to keep it in a mug in a shelf shared by all the 4 of us.The open toilet where the shit would drop in a basket and the bath room was out side with no roof this was behind the house which had a Rent of Rs.10/- per person.We all worked as Govt of India trainees in a local textile mill in Madurai a state in Tamil Nadu.Our Stipend of Rs.100/- per month was sent by the Govt of India,Ministry of Scientific Research and Training.As textile diploma graduates we had to under go a 6 months compulsory training in a textile mill selected by the govt.This was my home first after leaving my dear parents.This place was far away from my home in Bangalore and my dad was trying to fix me in a local textile mill but the person who was to fix me in that local textile mill advised my dad to send me to Madurai and he had no option with my mom forcing me to go to Madurai and not work in a local textile mill.I left home with Rs.100/- in my pocket and a 3rd class ticket by train to Madurai.I stayed here in my First home for 6 months.
