1. Do not worry about those who have come thru boats…
Our forces can easily defeat them.
WORRY about those who have come thru votes….
Those are our REAL ENEMIES….
2. What a shame and disgrace to every citizen of India that the elite NSG Force was transported into ordinary BEST buses, whereas our cricketers are transported into state of the art luxury buses, these
Jawans lay down their lives to protect every Indian and these cricketers get paid even if they lose a match, we worship these cricketers and forget the martyrdom of these brave Jawans.

An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
An old friend who once saved your life.
The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.
Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing very well that there could only be one passenger in your car?
This is a dilemma that was once used as part of a job application. Read more...(262 words, 0 images, estimated 1:03 mins reading time)
You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first;
The devastation by Kosi river in Bihar (one of the eastern states of India) has left many dead and many more homeless. Every one is trying to contribute in this situation, goverment & NGOs are running relief camps and trying to reach out to people stuck in the flood. Organizations are donating big amount, old clothes, food & medicines. At this, juncture Google is contributing through its one of the applications, google map.

Excellent article by Krishna Prasad Titled ” The truth is security in India is a joke” in www.rediff.com
dated July 25, 2008. It was posted after Bangalore Blast but after Ahemdabad blasts it gained more relevance.

“Thirty-two months after an Indian Institute of Technology professor was killed on the campus of the Indian Institute of Science, ‘terror’ returned to the pensioners’ paradise that no longer is, shortly after lunch on Friday afternoon.
The question is not why Bangalore, but why did it take so bloody long?
