Drawing on the work of, among many others, Susan Sontag, Rita Felski, and Peter Lamarque, I argue that P.G. Wodehouse, E.F. Benson, and Angela Thirkell wrote a type of pure comedy I call chaste camp. Chaste camp is a strange beast. On the one hand it is a sort of children’s literature written for and about adults; on the other hand it rises to a level of literary merit that children’s books, even the best of them, cannot hope to reach.

  • Rural Craft Hubsof West Bengal
    Rural Chau Mask Craft Charida Hub Purulia Chau Mukhosh Shilpi Sangha Supported by the Department of MSME&T, Government of West Bengal and West Bengal Khadi & Village Industries Board Rural Craft HubsOf West Bengal Handicrafts of Bengal embody our rich heritage of aesthetics, cr ea tivity and artistry. The craft sector provides low cost, green livelihood opportunities to more than 5.5 lakh men and women. Jalpaiguri Alipurduar The sector represents economic lifeline of the vulnerable sections of the society, with women accounting for around 50% of the crafts persons and a significant number belonging to the scheduled castes, tribes and religious minorities. In today's globalised world, the growing retail industry, fashion and luxury markets, demand for green production, potential for e-commerce have created new opportunities for developing a vibrant craft economy thereby providing increased income opportunities to the craft communities like the Patuas, potters, weavers, wood carvers, Dokra makers etc. Besides its high potential for employment, the craft sector is economically important from the point of low capital investment, high ratio of value addition, and high potential for export and foreign exchange earnings for the country. The Government of West Bengal thus aims to unleash the potential of the sector in terms of employment, enterprises, export and growth. The Department of MSME&T, Government of West Bengal in collaboration with UNESCO, New Delhi is developing 10 rural craft hubs in the state. The vision is to develop the villages with families traditionally skilled in craft traditions like Sitalpati, Madurkathi, Terracotta, Patachitra, Dokra, Wooden and Chau masks, Wooden and Clay doll making and Kantha as vibrant craft hubs connected to national and international market.

However, it seems that ‘Decided by Germany’ is becoming a painful reality for some UK franchised dealers. BMW has received a public thrashing during an inquest into a fatal car crash in the early hours of Christmas Day, 2016. Woking Coroner’s Court heard that the crash occurred after Narayan Gurung, a former Gurkha in his 60s, swerved to avoid an unlit BMW, which had broken down on a major road. T It emerged at the inquest that BMW had known about an electrical fault that caused some cars to stall and lose their lights since 2011. It had recalled vehicles in some other countries, but not in the UK. Shamefully, it did not recall them until after Gurung’s death. Even then, it recalled 36,410 cars, fewer than 10% of the number the DVSA asked for. BMW UK was unable to explain the delay at the inquest, except to say that recall “decisions are made in Germany” and the fault was not considered “critical”.

However, in recent years, while declining HIV trends are evident at the national level as well as in most of the States, some low prevalence and vulnerable States have shown rising trends, warranting focused prevention efforts in specific areas. The National AIDS Control Programme (NACP) is strongly evidence-based and evidence-driven. Based on evidence from ‘Triangulation of Data’ from multiple sources and giving due weightage to vulnerability, the organizational structure of NACP has been decentralized to identified districts for priority attention. The programme has been successful in creating a robust database on HIV/AIDS through the HIV Sentinel Surveillance system, monthly programme reporting data and various research studies.
