I've been using up a lot of my bandwidth on youtube and this post is also inspired by one of the youtube videos. Asif Ali Zardari managed to embarrass the whole of Pakistan by his flirting the vice presidential republican candidate , Sarah Palin.Hey whats wrong in appreciating a pretty girl. She a woman first and then a leader. If he acknowledged it, whats wrong. You might say he was flirting, and yes he was. Have you never flirted or is it that leaders should not flirt. Never mind but the Americans, Pakisatnis and people all over theworld have managed to make him a laughing stock. He deserves it, since its been just a few months since his wife was killed in the bomb and now the playboy from Pakistan is on the prowl. But Maulavis issuing fatwa in his name is stupid. Lets be free to express ourselves. If they are not ashamed of spreading terror in India, this is also nothing to be ashamed of. But this CNN video beautifully captured Sarah and Zardari, both on the sharp ends of the me...

Since few days the song " Kabhi Kabhi mere dil mein khayal aata hai " ( कभी कभी मेरे दिल में ख्याल आता है...) was playing in my head and finally I got some time to log on to youtube and listen to the song. what an awesome song, one of my favourites. And when I searched for Kabhi Kabhi I found out the recent Kabh Kabhi Aditi Zindagi mein... (Jaane Tu Ya jaane Na) and what a contrasting difference. Both are good but nothing as compared to the original one. Another shocker was Nelly Furtardo singing Kabhi Kabhi, but a fabulous effort.I would've loved had she sung the whole song. The Bally Sagoo remix was also good, but messed up. I've embedded a few of them below. कभी कभी मेरे दिल मैं ख्याल आता हैं की ज़िन्दगी तेरी जुल्फों की नर्म छाओं मैं गुजरने पति तो शादाब हो भी सकती थी. यह रंज-ओ-ग़म की सियाही जो दिल पे छाई हैं तेरी नज़र की शुओं मैं खो भी सकती थी. मगर यह हो न सका और अब ये आलम हैं की तू नहीं, तेरा ग़म तेरी जुस्तजू भी नहीं. गुज़र रही हैं कुछ इस तरह ज़िन्दगी जैसे, इसस...

Sex Education course material says it all. After the furore over the course material last year the National Aids Control Organization(NACO) is up with a tamed course material this year. The course material shows that sex education is mere formality in India. The explicit pictures in the teachers handbooks are out, and so are the words like intercourse, condoms, and masturbation. So cagey is the text about offending sensibilities that the chapter on conception doesn't even mention intercourse, this when 15 per cent of all pregnancies in the country are teenage pregnancies. Source : IBN Live The big question is that why are money and resources being spent on a thing that is not taken seriously. The issue is serious and sensitive and over cautious and conservative approach will lead to an even more repressive society. I would like to question the authorities by asking, whats wrong in this ?

Anatomy of the financial crisis - Views - livemint.com This is a very well written article that shows how some key policy decisions taken around 3 decades ago in the US have lead to the current financial crisis. The first was to deregulate the fixed commissions for stock trading in the 1970s and the second was of eliminating Glass-Steagall restrictions on mixig commercial and investment banking. A fixed commission meant that the investment banks made a comfortable living. deregulating of commission meant greater competition and thinner margins. The latter led to eating up of investment bank's share by commercial banks. Another key factor was the policies that gave rise to global imbalance. The federal reserve cut interest rase in response to the 2001 recession.

I was inspired to write this post after I found out that there are many people like me who didn't want to lead a normal life. This revelation came after I told my friends and relatives that I had a software, Kundli, and it gave very accurate results on personality and future. To my amazement, I was shocked at the same time happy that almost all, asked me the same question; Fame Hai ? (Will I be famous). After watching the first episode of Indian Idol 4 , I realized that probably getting fame now is easy. So I have come with a five point theory that will lead you to fame. (Caution : Fame could be injurious) I cannot guarantee the results, but these are tried and tested methods by few Indians who became famous. I'll start with the easiest. 5. Do something crazy/ weird/different Crazy stuff could attract a lot of media attention. I can say that because once when I was on my way to college, at the bus stop I saw a man running naked (Actually naked) with a couple of other people, in...

The giant investment bank succumbed to the sub-prime mortgage crisis that has rocked the United States and the global economy. Lehman was strangled by a massive credit crisis and fast plummeting real estate prices. The gargantuan $60 billion loss in bad real estate loans forced the bank to file for bankruptcy. However, the fall of the 158-year-year institution that started cotton trade in US before the American Civil War and financed the railroad that built a nation, got hit by a large dose of bad luck, pride, arrogance and greed. Primarily, the pride of its chief executive office Richard Fuld .

I hate to say this, but there is a significant part of the Muslim population in the Jamia Nagar area of South Delhi who are anti police, pro terrorists. They don't believe in the encounter carried out at Jamia Nagar. This was quite evident as the Shahi Imam came at the funeral of Atif, a suspect who was killed in the encounter.I totally agree that the encounter till now has been a jigsaw puzzle, where the pieces don't fit. But do you still think that two cops killed in an encounter could be fake ? Will innocents fire bullets at cops ? (If at all they are innocent) I might have an element of doubt (a very small rather negligible) , but these home grown terrorists are proving to be tougher than the Al qaeda operatives. Firstly, they are like us, secondly they are young and educated. They have left us Indians divided. One thing that is frustrating is that the people they are supporting today could be linked to killing their own tommorow. Maybe in the form of a suicide bomber, or m...
