very interesting read.
funny about the dog bites.
not funny...AIDS.
from what i understand India has the highest rate of AIDS per capita in the world. Denser somehow than Africa.
If Bangalore is known for pubs and girls im sure its also known for any kind of exotic crotch rot you could ever hope to shop for.

edit:
after a long interesting chat with you we discovered that it is not the worlds highest rate per capita of HIV/AIDS infection but apparently the nation as a whole has more AIDS cases than anywhere else. You pointed out this is not reflective of Bangalore itself.
Still I wonder what then are the needs and why it goes unaddressed or what effort is being made.
Just yesterday before reposting to answer you here I read an article that was highlighted on msn stating that AIDS will soon be the world's #3 killer. Aside from what the WHO organization had predicted in the past by assuming people had been informed.
I say nay to that because if there is a problem that goes undealt with and if a system of constant education is not set before the people then a society will be quick to forget. I am not claiming anyone is ignorant, but in general ALL societies are no matter where you are from. Ignorance itself is pandemic. Such is the case with AIDS in India where the rate allegedly quadrupled around the 2001 - 2003 time frame. Right after it had been reported as we saw on the CIA factbook the rate of aids cases there. So assuming all our sources of information are accurate
we see AIDS went from 0.9% to about 3.8% in a matter of 2 or 3 years tops.
I think that AIDS is on the rise is a testament to the phenomenon in society that allows us to move on easily and forget the past simply maybe because of how short a time human life actually is.
In virtually no time before real progress can be set in stone there is a new generation to carry the flag that does not know intimately what that change means. In the span of a short human life is what it would take 100% dedication to pushing the issue. A generation of sacrifice to cause a real lasting change. Or people that live long enough while intimately afflicted to see change carried out. People with HIV/AIDS are considered emblems of embarassment to their cultures and are not given a voice, is it not so?
The reality is anyone can contract these virus. Even though i have no personal interest in India or business relation I can tell you I find the thought of beating off stray animals almost irresistably something i would like to see first person, but to think what would happen if i were bitten so requiring a blood transfusion while visiting there? You should excuse me here for recoiling to worry if such blood might be infected with HIV for transfusion.

Bangalore is, probably, the only city in the world having 9 Municipal Corporation Bodies i.e. Bangalore Mahanagar Palike (BMP), Yelahanka, Byatarayanapura, K. R. Puram, Mahadevpura, Bommanahalli, Rajarajeshwari Nagar, Kengeri and Dasarahalli municipal corporations.

However, talks are going on now to merge these Municipal Corporations, as there is no coordination between them, and infrastructure, especially in other than BMP is pathetic (not that BMP is world class either, but its better). When, if at all, will this become a reality is to be seen.

This is not a question, but answer.
Even then, here are some aspects not covered by you, but noticed by me during my posting there for 5 years.--
1. It is possible to spend the entire lifetime in Bangalore on Tamil knowledge only.No need of kannada.
2. The OOTA AVAKASHA ( Lunch time ) here is more than anywhere in India --1200 to 1600 hrs.
3. Workmen like electrician / plumber/ dhobi will never come back if you have paid any advance to them.

no, there is not any reason to decrease your son back. His hazard of something would be very nearly comparable to an intact guy, that's very nearly Nil. Remeber that Urologists purely see "ill" penises, they have not any understanding of the conventional state of an intact guy, because of the fact each and all the intact men that come to work out them are there for a difficulty. fairly, maximum human beings of intact men stay long, problem-loose lives. maximum men in europe, working example, are intact, and that they've not any overwhelming pronblems with infections etc. they only achieveable problem would be if the unique decrease healed in this way of way that it particularly is now adhered to the top of the penis- that's person-friendly even in "finished" circumcisions. because of the fact the foreskin could for sure be adhered to the top at this point, there is not any thank you to tell if it particularly is, or isn't, the case until eventually he nears puberty. (until eventually you have been retracting all alongside). i'd wait until eventually he's older, hazard is powerful which you will discover that he has truthfully no issues. If it appears that evidently the floor DID heal decrease back, the medical doctors could have the potential to loose the floor bridges with no circumcision. -Neb
