9 Drinks to Have Before Intimacy to Last Longer Naturally.

1. Watermelon Juice
This is often called nature’s secret weapon. Watermelon is rich in something called “citrulline.” When you drink it, your body turns it into arginine, which relaxes your blood vessels.
It works very similarly to some medicines, but it’s totally natural. It improves blood flow to intimate areas, helping with stamina and sensitivity.

2. Beetroot Juice
It might not be your favorite flavor, but it is powerful. Beets are famous for being high in nitrates. Your body turns these nitrates into a gas that opens up your blood vessels.
Athletes drink this to run faster, and you can drink it to keep your energy up in the bedroom. It’s one of the most effective drinks for circulation.

Today marks four years since Russia’s full-scale invasion of #Ukraine.
Four years of senseless bloodshed. We continue to unequivocally condemn the violence and aggression and stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine.

Four years ago, we joined over 100 organisations in solidarity with Ukrainians and particularly the journalists who found themselves on the frontline of the war: indexoncensorship.org/2022/02/statem…
British-Ukrainian poet and translator Steve Komarnyckyj looked back at the famine of 1932-33 and the eerie parallels with today's war:

How did India go from “Maoism is our biggest internal security threat” to “only a handful of districts remain”?
And here’s the real question: was it only about guns and operations—or about roads, rights, and the state finally showing up?
Left Wing Extremism (LWE) didn’t start in 2014.
Its roots go back to the Naxalbari uprising of 1967 and the later consolidation of CPI (Maoist) in 2004.
By 2010, violence had peaked: 1,936 incidents and 1,005 deaths (civilians + security forces).
So when people say “Modi eliminated Maoism,” the accurate claim is: the Modi years oversaw a steep, systematic roll-back of LWE’s geography, funding, and operational space, while pairing security pressure with development delivery.
But let’s unpack how that happened - step by step -because the method matters.
What changed on the ground?
What changed in incentives?
And what changed in state capacity?

First, the scale. Left-Wing Extremism (LWE) wasn’t merely an ideology; it was parallel control:
extortion,
“taxation,”
intimidation of tribals,
capture of forests and worksites,
disruption of schools,
roads, and elections.
The most revealing metric isn’t speeches; it’s the shrinking map.
In an official Parliament reply, the Government reported that LWE-affected districts fell from
126 → 90 (2018) → 70 (2021) → 38 (Apr 2024) → 18 (Apr 2025) → 11 (Oct 2025),
with only 3 categorised as “most affected.”
And the violence curve is even sharper:
from the 2010 peak to 374 incidents in 2024 (Govt summary) and deaths down to 150 in 2024.
Ask yourself: movements don’t lose territory like that unless something breaks - money, mobility, recruitment, or legitimacy.
So what exactly was targeted?
Not just cadres. The ecosystem.

The Modi-era approach can be summarised in one idea: stop treating LWE as a “single department problem.”
In 2015, the Centre approved a National Policy and Action Plan to address LWE; explicitly “multi-pronged”:
security measures + development + ensuring rights/entitlements + governance.
And operationally, in 2017, the Home Ministry articulated SAMADHAN:
Smart leadership,
Aggressive strategy,
Motivation/training,
Actionable intelligence,
Dashboard/KRAs,
Harness technology,
Action plan per theatre,
No access to financing.
Read that again. It’s not a slogan.
It’s a management model:
👉 intelligence-led ops (not random sweeps)
👉 measurable district targets (dashboard governance)
👉 tech + mobility (drones/comms/roads)
👉 finance choke (extortion networks disrupted)
Now the uncomfortable question: Why didn’t this happen earlier with the same intensity and coordination?
Because coordination, accountability, and last-mile delivery are everything in insurgency.
The graphics/results below are testimony to the success of this strategy!

Most gave generic results.
But 7 consistently produced agency-quality output.
Here’s the exact stack:
→ Claude for strategy, copy, logic & code
→ Figma for design, prototyping & handoff

PROMPT 1: The Brand Strategist
Start here, before touching any design.
Ask Claude:
“You are a Brand Strategist at Pentagram. I’m building a [TYPE] website for [BUSINESS]. My audience is [DEMOGRAPHIC]. Create:
1) Brand positioning statement
2) Three unique value propositions
3) Tone-of-voice guide
4) Messaging hierarchy for the homepage”
This gives Figma a foundation to design from.

I finally understand why "act as an expert" prompts are destroying your results.
After 200+ tests across Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini I found what actually works.
It's called "Context Stacking" and it doesn't ask the AI to pretend anything.

Here's the technique ↓
When you say "act as a senior developer" the model doesn't think like one.
It writes like one. Big difference.
It pattern-matches to how developers sound in training data.
Not how they actually solve problems.
You get confident-sounding output. Not expert-level thinking.

Real experts don't introduce themselves before solving problems.
They bring:
- Prior failures they've already ruled out
- Constraints they're working within
- The actual goal behind the task
So I stopped asking AI to "be" an expert.
I started giving it what an expert already has in their head.
