Happy New Year
To start our lives anew;
This time we'll leap old barriers
To have a real breakthrough.
And then we'll take one more,
Our unlimited potential
We'll totally explore.
Everyone will be inspired;
(Hmm…while I'm writing this,
I'm getting very tired.)
We'll read and learn a lot,
All our goals will be accomplished,
Sigh...or maybe not.

My letter to Santa......
Dear Santa,
This is my first ever letter to you. I know I could do that using Indian Post Service, but I think I am late. So I thought that it would be easier and faster to blog it. Well, I want to tell you that this year I already got my Christmas gift I wished for. The love of my life, my wife Hemangi.
Dear Santa, if you already bought a gift for me, please give away to those who need it more. Dear Santa, hope you are doing well. I know the economy is slowing down, but I have full trust in you and your helpers. I am sure that you will make all the children around the world very happy.

After a lot of to & fro on the design, finally my client gave a go ahead on the design we presented to them for 2009 Calender.
The Calender has Katrina Kaif at its best & looks simply superb.

Tips for buying Aquarium Fishes
Throughout my life of 30 years till now we had a freshwater aquarium in our home. I have grown up seeing aquarium at my place. Taking that into consideration now I can let guide people atleast in the basics of aquarium. Listed below are some very very important tips when a person goes out to buy fish to add beauty to his aquarium.
1. Fish appearance.
Observe the particular fish you are interested in carefully to make sure he is active and swimming around properly. Make sure his fins are not chewed and he doesn’t have any growths or white fuzzy patches.
2. Tank condition.
Dealer’s tanks can have parasites and disease that might not be apparent in your fish right away so you need to observe the other fish in the tank and take a good look at the tank conditions. Is the tank clean? If not that is an indication that the dealer probably doesn’t care for the tanks well. Make sure the other fish in the tank are alert and swimming around actively. Avoid buying a fish from a tank that has dead fish floating in it. Even if your fish appears to be healthy, he could already be infected with something that might not show up until days after you get him home. By then it might be too late and you could risk infecting your other fish.
3. Water Conditions.
The condition of your water is important as well as the number of fish you already have in the tank. If your water condition is poor then adding more fish will just make things worse and endanger the health of all the fish in the tank. Also, you should be careful not to overload your tank with too many fish as this will cause stress on all the fish as well as cause your water quality to degrade. The general rule of thumb for freshwater tropical fish tanks is 1 inch of fish per gallon of water. If you add too many, you will have to spend more time changing the water and will need really good filtration in order to keep your tank healthy.
4. Water Temperature.
Not all tropical fish like the same temperature water. While most will do well with temps in the mid 70’s some do better in cooler waters while others like it on the warm side.
5. Fish size.
Before you buy a new fish you might want to find out how big he can be expected to eventually grow. Since your tank can support about 1 inch of fish per gallon, you wouldn’t want to put a fish that might grow to 5 inches in your 5 gallon tank or he might be the only one you can have!
6. The type of fish.
Is your new fish aggressive or does he play well with others? Is he OK being the only one of his kind in the tank or will he do better in a school. Make sure you only put fish that will get along in the tank or the more aggressive fish will pick on the others. Also, some fish are territorial and you should only keep one per tank.
7. The food.
Find out what type of food your new fish likes to eat. Most eat flakes, but some like freeze dried worms or other types of food. When you bring home your new fish be sure to also take home some of his favorite dinner.
A Woman's Worth
IT bridegrooms, it seems, are no longer the preferred choice of parents hunting for the right matrimonial catch for their daughters in parts of
The same fixers of alliances point out that this recent trend, which is not limited to Andhra, has also affected the position of IT professionals on the dowry ladder. They no longer command the stratospheric price that they did before. In the new pecking order, they are outdone by IAS officers who reportedly are worth about Rs 5 crore. If it weren't an indicator of a serious social malaise, we could perhaps be amused by such reports. They only confirm what we have always known. Dowry is a deep-rooted reality in this country, and it has social sanction. All instances of dowry may not be coercive which have devastating consequences for the bride and her family but the voluntary giving of money and expensive gifts is common practice. The social obligation to gift voluntarily puts no less pressure on women and their families than when the gifts are a precondition of marriage.
As more women enter the workforce in our country and become economically independent, practices such as dowry which perpetuate gender inequality should be on the wane. Unfortunately, that is not the case. And it's not just dowry. Disturbing sex ratio imbalances reflect serious gender disparities in our society. A recent study by the Harvard School of Public Health reports that the sex ratio is most skewed among those sections of our population that is much better off than the rest. The Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (PNDT) Act, which makes sex-determination tests illegal, has had little effect. However, there are differences reported across the country;
It is fairly clear that the economic empowerment of women alone is not going to further the cause of gender parity. It requires a revision in our collective social mindset, which can be brought about only through better education. Above all, there must be strict enforcement of laws, such as the Dowry Act and the PNDT Act. Without determined enforcement, laws are effectively toothless.

Three cheers to India
Three cheers to India for winning a superb Test. All that it took place was only a surprise. That Sachin Tendulkar hit the winning runs, bringing up his hundred in the process. It was a perfect and classic manner in which to end a Test whose preparations were blighted not by rain, or poor form, or injuries, but by terror.

Marathi Baana
Got a chance to watch Marathi Baana, a cultural orchestra by Mr. Ashok Hande of Chaurang Group on 13th December 2008 at Savitribai Phule Kalamandir, Dombivli. It is one of the best live performances I have ever seen. Every thing seems to be perfect in terms of production, lights, execution. A team of around 125 people perform with sheer perfection and coordination. It’s a fast track show and always keeps you interested in the show.
But what show! Superb! The costumes, props, attention to detail are excellent. The stage has over 30 men and women dancing in perfect sync with not a step out of place. Looking from a physical point of view, these young boys and girls are extremely fit and flexible. Energy levels remain high through each performance and the artists seem to enjoy every moment of it. The 'bharud' and dance depicting the 'Ambabai' is par excellence. The tribal dance and the 'lavani' got a loud call for a 'ONCE MORE'. Lighting is used imaginatively and the musicians (about 15 of them) stayed on stage all throughout.
The whole show is written, conceived and directed and anchored by Mr Ashok Hande. Full marks to the concept, execution and direction. But at times Mr Hande does get to you. He does have a team of awesome singers, yet it is he who takes over most of the time. And the only other thing that put me off was the barb directed at outsiders who come into
The play was all about our Maharashtian culture. It is not the story about the history of
It is overall a great show, and myself and my wife Hemangi, left the theatre with only one resolution, that we will see Marathi Baana as many times as possible.
