An year ago I said that I will be around more often. I realised today that I have not kept my promise. 1 year 2 posts is probably not enough.. but then again, an year without post would be worse. Ironical that when we have so many things going on in our lives, we have a lot to express but no time to write. And on the flip side, we have little to write when there is time on hand.I will make no

The CowIndia is known for allowing animals to live harmoniously along with the humans in its cities and towns. Dogs, cats and the cows hold a significant position among these animals as they are found in abundance on roads, highways, parks and are often termed as 'stray animals'. This particular post involves a cow that 'strays' in the city of Dehradun and likes to visit our house every afternoon

Here is one for debate....If you believe in something, stand strong by it... does not matter if that belief is wrong.

If you can think of thousand different problems you will face in pursuit of an objective, but also think of one reason to justify that pursuit, would you go ahead?

I decided to give this city a chance and here is how it goes.City generates more garbage than any other place I have known.This place always has life.You will only get good customer service at places that *expect* a large tip(30%).In services where tipping cannot be provided, such as telecom, personal banking,

Some play it by the mind, while others by the heart. As individuals we have always been taught to think and decide. The thinking process itself involves the mind where we reason out the implications, advantages, disadvantages etc of taking one decision over another. This process makes much sense to those of us who think analytically. However, there comes a time when these analytical minds are

As I sat at my desk looking at some 10 packets of fire sauce, some unpaid bills, a letter from IRAS asking me to pay my tax and a letter from Ministry of Community, Youth and Sports asking me for an interview, I started wondering if it was my desk or was I sitting at someone else's desk.The bills and letters are addressed to me.... good, but the fire sauce. Now that’s a mystery.

2005 was not the best year for this world. With the large number of deaths all over the world owed to natural disasters, there would be few who would disagree. 2006 has not showed the best start either.For starters, Bird flu has been catching up in various parts of the world. With deaths in Turkey, China and Indonesia, the situation does not look too bright.If that were not enough, the weather

Many years ago there started a series on the television by the name "Friends". Most of you reading this post would have seen it. It was a comedy, meant for entertainment and fun.Did it manage to depict what friends are like in reality? Have a look at the relationship you share with your friends and then compare it with what you saw on Friends. I am sure Friends did manage to depict many finer

So the major developed nations of this world develop nuclear weapons. They create a large stockpile of these weapons and sit on it.50 years later the developing nations start acquiring/developing the same weapons in a much smaller quantities. And what do the developed nations have to say about it? Its not good. They are treated like kids who have done something wrong.Some of these developing

Delhi was blasted today... thrice.In a matter of few minutes... some 50 were left dead and 200 injured. The busy crowd of Diwali markets was aimed for. Quite a perfect timing indeed to bring terror to our lives. I was on my way to the market myself when this happened. Will it make any difference in our lives.? Probably not.... The casualities were of the same scale as that of the London blasts.

I was in Shanghai for a week on work.Observations:-Infrastructure is awesome.... from 5 lane roads to the speed with which construction and reconstruction takes place is just maddening. They do not build structures, they raise them(Those of you who have played strategy games would know what I mean).Buildings are creatively done, though the style changes largely between buildings. This gives

I was sitting and musing over the events of the past one week when the above thought struck me. I was so fascinated with the idea that I gave myself some time to think about it and crystallize this idea over time. The objective of this post is to bring attention to t the fact how importants parts to life can be described using four letter words.May be it the various stages of life that human goes

This post has been on the wait list for a very long time. I have realized that at this pace of blogging it would be a very long time before I can catch up with the present. Hence this post will be summary of events till date. I am sure there are people waiting to know abt what happened in Scotland, Sorry folks but a summary is absolutely necessary else catching up will take a long time. I had to

1 week in Houston things did not look that bad. The next 5 weekdays were spent mainly on work. Early evenings (by Singapore work standards) was not much of help considering there was not much to do after work. One great discovery was that Main Street had many great bars that were good places to visit. Most of them served good food and good drinks. Given that there were not many (read “none”)

It has been 2 months since my last post. Those who meet me often know what have I been up to but those who don't must be wondering that where have I been. So here is the inside story.6th March was a day that started a series of events that would leave a lifelong impression.I would start from were I left, The LA airport. One act that I forgot to mention in my last post was almost losing Anshul's

Its 06 March 2005... 05:20 PM and I am at the LA airport. 1 more hour before my next flight takes off. I am writing this post on my lotus notes... as I am offline.. This effectively means that by the time this goes online, this would be a historical post... Many of my posts in the next one month would follow the same pattern...So how has the journey been so far?...Quite eventful actually....(

Have you ever wondered what life is all about? What is the purpose of one's existence? What should one do in life? Some may say that pursuit of happiness is the path to follow. Others may suggest that a life of sacrifice is an ideal one, Social Service may be high in one's opinion. While others may suggest connecting with God is the right path A lot of them suggest working towards the greater

It is rather interesting how the sequence of events take place. No later that I had written my previous article on Mergers and Acquisitions on January 13, P&G decided to buy out Gillete making one of the world's bigest consumer products manufacturers. The deal was struck at an whopping price of 55B. Talk about brand value!!A couple of other meger/takeover announcements also followed in the month

Who's blog should you link from your Blog? That is the question I was faced with when I logged on to Blogspot today. I am not sure what my answer to this question would be. But I would nevertheless provide you this link to the blog of this person I have got to know over the past month. Sherene Enjoy till you can!!!

I believe in change... I live on change.. I have realised that its change that drives me... Change has always brought me more good than keeping things same. It is applicable to all walks of life. May it be career, personal, social, you name it and I'll give you an example out of my book of life where change has done me good. But there are more important aspects to change than change itself.

Has anyone noticed the large number of companies worldwide that have been merging? Take the following facts for example:- Oracle bought over Peoplesoft. The former was the 3rd largest producer of applications software in the world, while the latter was the 2nd largest application vendor. Symantec and Veritas merged. That is a merger of the security company and a data warehousing/backup company.

It's been a long and busy week and after having clocked in 65 hrs this week you want to treat yourself to some good food. You hope that it comes with good service which is hard to find in Singapore unless you are paying through the nose. Now I am not a champ at trying out every new place that opens up in Singapore, but I do my due. Though being a vegetarian and being a big fan of the north indian

I read this interesting article from a Technology newsletter distributed at my office. Kudos to Linux. Quoting the article below :- A four-year Stanford University study found that the Linux kernel programming code is better and more secure than the programming code of most proprietary software, Wired News reported yesterday. The researchers found that the 2.6 Linux production kernel -- shipped

The header sounds as cheesy right!!! But its true. After 2 months of not having logged on to Blogspot, this is where I stand. Went back home for 2 weeks for sister's wedding.

Its been quite some time since the last post. Work has been taking the entire week and part of weekends. Whatever is left of the week is spent in in catching up on sleep. But inspite of all this life has been exciting and things have been happening. Lost 2 digital camera's in a month. What's happening to the crime rate in this world?Got a new digital camera today. This one is still with me.My

11:10 PM on a Friday night and you are still in office. You decide you have had enough. If you work anymore you may end up not getting any dinner and public transport back home. 11:28 PM at Orchard. BK is still open, Lucky me!! Grab a whopper meal without patty. 11:45 PM at Orchard. Dinner is done. Heard that Harold and Robin has a sneak preview tonight. Should I give it a try after 14 hours of

Every day we hear each other talk about how corrupt India is. We express our opinions about it.. We spoof on it and make jokes on the Indian politics and politicians. Most of us hate this corruption. Most of us wish it were not here. But ask yourself this. What have you done in the past 2 years of your life that could improve the situation? Let me focus on some core aspects of this article.....

Yes, The template has been changed and has been customized as well. It turned out to be quite a revision of my HTML skills. The last time I tried my hand at HTML was during my Internship.

This is definitely not been the best way to start a blog... It all started with the username. Who the hell took the username Avyakt. That was just the start, guess the same guy took up the blog http://avyakt.blogspot.com. C'mon, there are not many Avyakt's in this world.Then I look for astitva.blogspot.com, and guess what.... that's gone too. I calm myself and look at the next best option i.e.
