Another glass paininting by my sis!

Great article by Keshi. She yearns for fairy tale endings. What she does not acklowledge, though, is that the dreams and needs of people have exceeded the boundaries of ‘wonderland’! All aladin wanted was to feed his hungry mother, and snow white really loved her seven friends (and she really was beautifull!!). Cindrella was happy serving her step mom and her step-sisters. Fairy tales happen to the pure of heart, and not to the vile that the world has now turned to.

A full mid-summer day, full of floral aromas, woody surroundings, green lawns, a shed for shelter, and a promise of fun and entertainment – with cornucopious food!! That was our Saturday 17th June Mathur picnic! Read the rest of this entry »  

Hello friends,

 But, I am back!

Lots of news to share. I will dedicate a post each, but here is a list -

1. nyphpcon 2006 was great! Learnt a lot, met some great ppl, got some great leads!

2. The Mathur Holi picnic was fun! I was the official photographer, so keep tuned in for some great photographs

3. A freind of my wife came in from Goa, India. Took her around the City. Keep tuned in for some photographs

I forgot to mention that I happened to read The Da-Vinci Code! Man this book has some glue in it or what? I just could not put it down!

A brief review – It was a fast paced book till the last 50 pages, after which it grined to a complete halt! Great the girl met her brother and grand mother! And without going into the inherent controversies, it was a great read! Maybe, just maybe, I may watch the movie too!

It was 3-2 India, going by the number of days that they were ahead compared to the West Indies!

 Day 1 and Day 2 belonged to the West Indians. First to get India out at under 250 runs, and then piling up a pretty promising lead by the end of Day 2.

Then came the Indian bounce back! First to restrict the lead to just 131 runs on Day3, and then to follow up with some great batting performance, on Day 3 and 4.

The Indian second inning scorecard says it all

W Jaffer 212  / V. Sehwag 41 / V.V.S Laxman 31 / R. Dravid 62 / Y. Singh 39/ M. Kaif 46 / M. Dhoni 69

Jaffer was the pick of the lot, but what was heartening to see was how the rest of the batsmen contributed to the score. 2 in the 60s, 2 in the 40s and 2 in the 30s. They are not paper tigers after all! Dhoni’s 51 ball cameo was just another feather in a now heavily feathered Indian Cap!

And that brought us to Day5! It is days like this that cricketing history is made up of! Both the teams stiving hard to steal the day, and finally it was cricket that had the final say!

E@zyVG’s Vichar » India and its Role in Future World Economy

An article, placing India as the third largest economy by the year 2050. To me that is not good enough! I would rather see India there and beyond in the next 15 years!

But hey, its good going in a way. So , Go Go India!
