He published something in Jaimini that changes how you read every chart.
And it starts with one question..
Who is the Yogakaraka in YOUR chart?

One of India's most respected classical Jaimini scholars.
His article "Jaimini Sutras and Kalpalatha" was published in July 1994.
Not a YouTube reel.
Not a paid course.
A peer-reviewed journal. 30 years ago.
This is what real Jyotish research looked like.

1/ The fall of Victor Orbรกn is being mourned as a catastrophe by Russian warbloggers and commentators. They lament the loss of a man whom they openly call "a 'Trojan horse' in the EU" and blame the Russian government's ineffective attempts to interfere with the election. โฌ‡๏ธ
2/ Alex Kartavykh laments:

"The Reich has almost crystallised. There will be no one left to gum up the Euro-bureaucrats with blabber and prevent them from sending out budget aid. And, in general, the last bastion of common sense has fallen."
3/ "The only remaining neutrals in the West are the Serbs, and that's it. And then there's Lukashenko and the potato boys [Belarusians] as allies. Are we sure we have a plan?"

Alexey Zhivov calls for Russia to punish Hungary for voting out Orbรกn:

The USA ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ announced yesterday that it would impose a blockade on Iran ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท, thus reinforcing the closure of the Strait of Hormuz

The Strait's importance is global, and some key figures are often forgotten when considering the consequences on global economy :

25% of the oil exportations are going through Hormuz.

-80% of those are going to Asia (mainly China, India, South Korea and Japan)
-Saudi Arabia (1st), Iraq (3rd), UAE (5th), Kuwait (7th) are highly dependant on the strait Image
25% of the gas exportations are going through Hormuz

-Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia and Iran are exporting gas, which is going through Hormuz. Qatar is the 3rd world exporter. Image

#SupremeCourt to shortly hear a case concerning the rape and murder of a 4-year-old child, where it earlier flagged the failure of police to invoke sexual assault provisions and refusal of two private hospitals to treat the child when she was still alive.

Bench: CJI Surya Kant and J Joymalya Bagchi

On the last date, the Court directed the Commissioner of Police, Ghaziabad, to appear in personImage
The petition seeks transfer of investigation to CBI or a Special Investigation Team for a time-bound probe, along with action against police officials for alleged assault and intimidation, and against the hospitals for refusing treatment.
Prior to the bench rising for lunch break, ASG Aishwarya Bhati mentioned the matter, seeking permission for the Commissioner to leave as there was a law-and-order situation

The bench allowed the same

An ACP and the concerned SHO to remain present.

1/ U.S. VP JD Vance and former Canadian PM Stephen Harper are meddling in Hungary's elections. ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡บ

I don't know, Sam. I didn't go to Eton like you. All I know is, it's not the same place. Maybe you need to know what it's like to be hissed at - literally hissed at - by a North African on the Tube. This means 'get out of my way, now' and it happened to me last week.
I mean, who doesn't get locked up in M&S while mobs riot outside? Who hasn't been the parent of a stabbed teenager? Who hasn't watched their area Islamify? Who doesn't mind a bit of Jew hunting on the streets?
These fucking dingbats bleating about social media and bot farms, while normal people who've lived here for decades can see, all around them, what's happening. I'm so sick of them. Again, London is not Chicago. London should be compared with the better London of days gone by.

Isnโ€™t that London is now a hellhole, actually it is very nice in many parts - is more that it is undergoing a process of (avoidable) โ€˜enshittificationโ€™ where quality of life on certain metrics gets slowly worse over time. So easy to tolerate but things are still worse than before Image
London in the summer, wow. And maybe even you man clapping some naija or argentinian or punjabi ting you donโ€™t even mind the real big change youโ€™re having too much fun and who can blame you! But fact remains many QoL metrics degrading even if people often too hysterical about it!

I find it astonishing that we amplify bog standard hyper obvious attention seeking behaviour as something righteous just because the person has tried to make it political
It's just so boring
Oh wow you've made an incredibly jarring noise during a concert that's enough to put the performer off, thank God you've made it political so that it's seen as offensive to YOU and not the thousands of other people there

#SupremeCourt hears PIL related to #WestBengalSIR

Sr Adv for petitioners: We are before the appellate tribunal. Matter not being taken up. ECI says freezing date is 9th. If date is extended, I won't be here. I am a mapped voter with Aadhaar card, Passport

CJI: HC CJ has informed appellate tribunal hearing matters since today morning. tribunals can't be blackmailed like this. we are not to decide this. tribunal will decide

Sr Adv: ECI is not placing matters before J Sivagnanam

J Bagchi: We are taking a graded approach to ensure all rights, including fundamental duty of ECI, are balanced and a fair and balanced exercise is undertaken

Bench: CJI Surya Kant and J Joymalya BagchiImage
Sr Adv DS Naidu for ECI: Anybody who has been there in that (2002 roll), is automatically in, provided they can give their credentials, without any discrepancy

J Bagchi: 2002 roll is benchmark. In the logical discrepancy list...in your final list, you did not delete them

Naidu: Every person has to submit form

J Bagchi: When Bihar SIR was argued, submission was clear. Unequivocal! A person in 2002 roll need not give anything

Naidu: Such person only needs to prove he is the same person.

J Bagchi: Please examine written submissions in Bihar SIR. You are deviating from your original [stance].
J Bagchi to Naidu: When you go into suo motu enquiry, you are required to give hearing upon notice. That is why we wanted appellate tribunals...we have to protect due process rights

Naidu: When we have published LD lists and they are informed, they can submit objections. Please note - there are 47% rejections

J Bagchi: It's not a blame game (between state and ECI). Voter being sandwiched between constitutional entities.

Quaraisha Yeasmin vs Election commission of India: WEST BENGAL SIR APPEAL TRIBUNAL ISSUE

Adv: In some cases Election commission has not even placed the orders before Justice Sivanganam. ECI is not aware of what's happening... Appeals are not being taken up. Let freezing date be extended.

CJI: go before the appellate tribunal and say all this

Adv: If I am not allowed to argue then what's the use? But will appeal be decided within a time frame or keep extending?

CJI: so you want us to put the former chief Justices and judges.. under pressure .

Adv; Those who have addhar and passport.. will be allowed that's what this court has held

Justice Bagchi: Calcutta HC Chief has informed manner and mode of appeals have been formulated. It has started hearing from today. We cannot say hearing x appeals from today

Sr Adv Naidu for ECI: will have always placed all records. Now we are blamed for helping. There are 30 lakh appeals.

#westbengalsir #SupremeCourtImage
Justice Bagchi: Unless and until there is enormous amount of voters excluded or materially affect the election...the election cannot be cancelled. If 10 percent does not vote and winning margin is more than 10 percent then..

CJI: only academic excercise

Justice Bagchi: if it's less than 5 percent then we have to apply our mind. Earlier a candidate was given primacy before the appellate tribunal because a candidate cannot be denied the right to contest. Please don't think the question is not in our mind that what about those who are excluded !
Justice Bagchi: if an objector files an appeal against inclusion. Then again that person also has to be removed. So we had judicial officers and then appellate tribunals.

Sr Adv Naidu: the court was not even inclined to have the appellate tribunal firstly.

Justice Bagchi: we have permitted the constitutional authority to go into purity of electoral roll issue. Your original ECI notification on SIR did not touch 2002 list.. but your logical discrepancy list rejection reasons are 2002 list etc. your notification touched people who relates to people in the 2002 list. 2002 list is the benchmark. See in your final list you did not delete the 2002 list members. When Bihar SIR was argued, submissions of ECI was unequivocal that 2002 list members need not given any document. Please see your written submissions in Bihar case. You had said 2002 electorate need not give Documents..

Sr Adv Naidu: but they have to prove that they are the same person as in 2002 list. They are using alias etc.

Justice Bagchi: now you are improvising the submissions which you made earlier.

Reminds me that Tapp was getting bullied last week in parliament for defending the ILR reforms on the apparently ignoble grounds that it would save the government money. Image
Was full of some quite bizarre exchanges. Image
โ€˜What SPECIFIC data do you possess that shows that people in poverty will claim benefits, Mr Tapp?โ€™

โ€˜Donโ€™t be so alarmist! We MUST wait for the data. I am very smart.โ€™ Image

Kenya is one bad war away from mass starvation. Here's why...
A long ๐Ÿงต
1909, Fritz Haber cracks the code to feeding humanity. Haber-Bosch process, synthesizing nitrogen from the air, gave us fertilizer. Vaclav Smil calculated that without it, about half of today's 8-9 billion humans would not exist. Fertilizer isn't agri. Fertilizer IS civilization.
Kenya grows nothing, absolutely NOTHING, at scale without imported N, P & K. We have zero domestic production of N, P & K elements. Every bag of DAP, Urea, CAN & NPK on our farms arrived on a ship. We are 100% import-dependent for the chemical backbone of our food supply.
