Let’s take the example of Bhagmati and the Kohinoor.
Supposedly, separated in time by over three quarters of a century, among the many enigmatic nuggets of medieval India’s history of the Deccan, both Bhagmati and the Kohinoor diamond still remain inconclusive.
Primarily, it is the travelogues of Jean Baptiste Tavernier that report about both the enigmas creating a fertile ground for fact, fiction and imagination to gallop. Tavernier, therefore, in a way becomes the pilot that sets sail both Bhagmati and Kohinoor in a single boat.
The more these issues appear to have been resolved in worthy writings of eager writers working on the subject, the more they open up a plethora of questions on the additional information that comes up which nowadays goes by the jargon TMI (too much information).

Flooding that burst through levees, swamped farms and inundated homes and businesses in cities and towns across Iowa, Nebraska and other Midwestern states two years ago is part of a climate change-driven weather phenomenon that scientist say is happening more frequently.
A new University of Iowa study says rising greenhouse gas concentrations caused by human activity are producing an increased frequency of a weather phenomenon that researchers call the Midwest water hose.
The Midwest water hose pulls moisture from the Gulf of Mexico that is then lifted above cold dry air from the North, leading to heavy rainfall in the Midwest. The weather event has been occurring more frequently over the last 40 years, researchers Wei Zhang and Gabriele Villarini wrote in a recently published study.
Ebola: The New Fake Outbreak
We’re being warned that a new Ebola outbreak is spreading.
Yahoo News (February 26, 2021): “On Feb. 17, the World Health Organization reported a cluster of Ebola cases in Guinea…The Biden administration is moving forward with plans to screen airline passengers from two African countries arriving in the U.S. for Ebola…”
Before yet another lunatic pandemic story takes off, people need to understand the multiple hoaxes behind Ebola.
I covered the story in 2017 and 2014. Here are the essential quotes from my pieces. Buckle up:
There is one predictable outcome: at Congo clinics and hospitals, frightened people who arrive with what are labeled “early signs” of Ebola will be diagnosed as probable cases. What are those symptoms? Fever, chill, sore throat, cough, headache, joint pain. Sound familiar? Normally, this would just be called the flu.

Climate experts have revealed that rising temperatures will intensify future rainfall extremes at a much greater rate than average rainfall, with largest increases to short thunderstorms.
New research by Newcastle University has shown that warming temperatures in some regions of the UK are the main drivers of increases in extreme short-duration rainfall intensities, which tend to occur in summer and cause dangerous flash flooding.
These intensities are increasing at significantly higher rates than for winter storms. A study, led by Professor Hayley Fowler, of Newcastle University s School of Engineering, highlights the urgent need for climate change adaptation measures as heavier short-term rainfall increases the risk of flash flooding and extreme rainfall globally.
