VALENTINE'S DAY-CELEBRATION OF LOVE

LOVE is in the air during this period of the month as every lover is looking forward to express his/her love to his/her valentine.Rather this year fear is in the air,as many "moral police" brigade's of the society have threatened to wipe out the valentine's across the country as Valentine's Day is tarnishing the Indian culture.

Sri Ram Sene one of the moral police brigade in Bangalore has vowed that no V-day celebrations would take place and any couple displaying their love or affection in public would be seriously thrashed.Another cadre of moral police named Bajrang Dal has even to said it would marry off couples who display their love in public.Surprisingly our very own Raj Thackeray of MNS has said that no men from his party would attack or stop the celebrations of V-day.The NCP has even decided to open shops where valentine greeting cards and flowers would be sold.

Well,now the question is why these elements of society are so miffed with the V-day? They claim that V-day has never been part of Indian culture and it has been adopted from the West.Well,India has always had a history where lovers have been beaten to death(eg:- laila majnu).But we are in the 21st century and every citizen has his/her own right to live life and choice to select his/her partner.Who are these moral police to tell me what is right for me?

Some people question do we really need a particular day to celebrate love? Well in today's world where every man is just so busy with his/her work that he forgets to express his/her love to their loved ones.Hence why not have a particular as V-day.

To all those moral police brigade who are trying to save the Indian culture,V-day is not just for lovers but even for brothers/sisters,child/parent and every other personal relationship.Why is it necessary that only a girl can love a boy? Why doesn't a mother love her son? Let's hope for the best this V-day and wishing everyone a HAPPY VALENTINE DAY!!

JAYAWARDENE STEPS DOWN AS CAPTAIN

After losing the series to India 4-1,the Srilankan captain Mahela Jayawardene has decided to step down as captain after the Pakistan series later this month.This news has come as a shock to the Srilankan team members.

Jayawardene has completely ruled out that the loss to india has urged him to take such a step.Instead he has citied his poor batting form as reason to quit his captaincy.Over the past one year Mahela's batting form has certainly taken a dip.

Mahela expects Sangakara as his successor but the decision is left to the selector and management.Mahela wanted to give his successor atleast 18 months to build the team before world cup 2011.Mahela has promised he would give 100% to the game and improve his batting performance in the coming games.

Mahela Jayawardene was quite a successful captain as he had led his team to the final of 2007 world cup in westindies which they had lost to australia but his batting had certainly taken a dip during his captaincy.

FACEBOOK-A NEW WAY OF COMMUNICATION

FACEBOOK--the latest sensational social networking site is surely changing the way people used to communicate.Earlier such sites had been used to just connect with ur friends and share with them ur photos,experiences and even ur daily activities.FACEBOOK ofcourse offers all these perks but it has been used by many people for some matters that attract national interest.

Consider the case where some members of the FACEBOOK had formed a community which was used to collect funds for the families who had lost their loved ones in 26/11 attacks in Mumbai.It even launched a community where u can have ur view over the recent attacks in Mumbai.

The most recent case of girls being assaulted in a pub in mangalore has attracted wide critcism from all parts of India.To protest against this incident,a 400 member community in FACEBOOK has decided to send pink panties to the Sri Ram Sene leader Muthalik on the VALENTINE DAY.Quite a diiferent way of protesting against a cause using FACEBOOK as a medium.Now Mr.Muthalik has decided to send a saree to each female member of that community as a response.

Putting everyone in disarray was a incident when a man had announced that he has decided to divorce his wife on FACEBOOK.It was the poor woman's friend who let her know about her husband's decision(poor woman was not so net savy).

Hence FACEBOOK has been now widely used for a variety of purposes.In a few years from now u will here some people announcing their marriages on FACEBOOK.And why not propose ur girl friend or boy friend on FACEBOOK this VALENTINE'S DAY...... seems to be a good idea!!!!!!!!!!

MY FIRST ENCOUNTER WITH CON-MEN-part2

Then he asked both of us to put all the money and valuables we had in his handkerchief and said he would perform some magic.The moment he said this i understood that he his to con me and i said,"It's getting late,i have to go to the bank".I even said,"I have no money".So he said,"Why don't u put your gold chain".I thought this is getting too much.The other man besides me had put all the money he had in the handkerchief and urged me to do the same.But then i remained adamant and left the place immediately.They tried their level best to convince me but i didn't budge.

Now while coming back from the bank,i found neither of the two men who were talking with me.Then i understood that both of them were trying to cheat me,the man from UP as well as the man who ws just walking down the street.Then i realised that both of them were partners.I rushed home to tell this incident to my mom.As i entered my house,my mother gave me a hug and said,"You have got admission in kit college of engg,kolhapur(a grade)".My joy knew no bounds and then i told my mother about the incident.She was just shocked to hear this and warned me never to talk with stangers.


As they say -- STRANGERS ARE DANGER

MY FIRST ENCOUNTER WITH CON-MEN-part 1

This incident happened way back in 2005 when i had appeared for many engineering entrance exams like iit,aieee,bits and mh-cet.And to my fortune i had scored less in all these exams and was unsure about getting an engineering seat.So everyday i used to get scoldings from my mom for not performing well in my exams.Due all these reasons i was very sad during that phase of my life.

During that time one day my father gave me a cheque which i had to deposit in a bank which was quite far from my house.So i left for the bank on my cycle.On my way to the bank a man aged aroung 25-30 stopped me and enquired about an address.I said to him,"I don't the address".But he started to tell me that he has lost his purse and has no money.I said "sorry",but he continued saying that he has come from UP where he was a sadhu(priest) and had come to Mumbai to meet his brother.

Slowly he started to enquire about me,asking "Are u studying?".I said "Yes".He said looking at me,"You must be through a lean patch in ur carrier,you must have got less marks in ur exam and so on".So i started thinking,was he an astrologer or doing some guessing work.Suddenly he stopped another man who was walking down the street and told the same story he sid to me.

SO WHAT NEXT ?
