    Margaretha Geertruida MacLeod (née Zelle, Dutch:[mɑrɣaːˈreːtaːɣeːrˈtrœydaːˈzɛlə]; 7 August 1876 – 15 October 1917), better known by the stage name Mata Hari (MAH-tə HAR-ee, Dutch:[ˈmaːtaːˈɦaːri]; Indonesian for 'sun', lit. 'eye of the day'), was a Dutch exotic dancer and courtesan who was convicted of being a spy for Germany during World War I. She was executed by firing squad in France.[1] The idea of a beautiful exotic dancer using her powers of seduction as a spy made her name synonymous with the femme fatale. Her story has inspired books, films, and other works.

    Mahatma Gandhi: A saint obsessed with temptation & bowel movement

    Gandhi led what some would consider a remarkably sybaritic existence, surrounded by doting female servants and secretaries
    For a man whose whole ideological thrust was anti-materialist, Gandhi was extraordinarily obsessed by what he ate and its physical consequences. A favorite book (one is impressed by the intellectual poverty of his reading) was called Constipation and Our Civilisation. During his interwar period at the Sevagram hermitage, the first question he asked his female attendants each day was: “Did you have a good bowel-movement this morning, sister?” He himself spent 20 minutes on a close-stool twice a day and took an enema every evening.
    In pursuit of the perfect bowel-movement Gandhi constantly changed his diet.But some of his notions strike the reader as curious. Thus, his chief drink was a mixture of honey, lemon and bicarbonate of soda; and at meals he had a bowl of crushed garlic by his plate, from which he ate copiously, encouraging others to do the same. (Gandhi had practically no sense of smell, by no means a misfortune in India.)
