They shared their family and  educational backgrounds. As they were talking sam realized that there was some  kind of waves flowing between them. They shared many things in common and they  sync very well. When the cab reached her house, sam wanted to ask for her mobile  number but was afraid of her reaction so waved his hand and wished her good  night.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;There was a slim breeze at that hour of night, very gentle one, moving her  silky hair like a Mexican wave. He was mesmerized with her beauty and was  looking at her intently; all of a sudden she turned back, completely taking sam,  off the guard. She smiled at him and went inside her home. That night sam was  not able to sleep. He was thinking about her only.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Next day sam went to office hoping to have a conversation with her. When he  entered his floor he saw her, but found there was something wrong with her.  There was no liveliness in her face. He said hi but she responded meekly. He was  disturbed because of her gloomy mood.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Sam and his team were having coffee that time Ananya came there with her  friend, sam initiated the conversation with some courage&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“How are you Ananya? Looks like not feeling well”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“I m fine, nothing like that. So how are you?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Ya I m good, so how is the work going on for you”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“It is fine, but I have to learn many things”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Then with more courage sam said “if you need any help ping me” and gave her  his employee id. Sam was hoping for a message from her. But he didn’t get  any.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Next day came the most awaiting message in the OCS. It was Ananya. Sam  stopped doing all his work and started replying her queries. Then he asked her  why she was sad the day before. She told her that she did some mistakes in some  queries so got her manager’s piece of mind. Then sam volunteered to help her  professionally.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;They started to converse very often and exchanged their mobile numbers too.  Their professional relationship turned into a good friendship and it was in turn  blossoming into a beautiful relationship. Both started to feel comfortable with  each other’s company and started to spend more time together. Days went, weeks  went, their binding grew stronger, and though both liked each other they never  really proposed.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;One fine day sam decided to propose Ananya. He was very worried and was  rehearsing hard on how to propose her. He met her in the cafeteria. She was  talking about her team, suddenly he asked her,&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Will you marry me?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;For a split second Ananya was speechless, though she wanted to hear it from  him, she never expected the proposal to be that way. She didn’t say  anything.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Again sam asked her the same question. Ananya started to blush but at the  same time there was some kind of concern on her face. She said, “I don’t know  whether my parents will accept it or not?” but sam was interested only in her  answer. From her smiles and tears he knew the answer.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;From that day onwards their relationship changed completely. They bonded more  and started to spend more time and space together. There was no difference  between day and night for they spent most of their time either texting or  chatting. Life was very blissful for him.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Everything went on smoothly until that day. It was that fateful day that  shattered all his dreams. It had been six months from that April day when he met  Ananya for the first time. The day started like a normal one except there was no  message from Ananya. Sam was little worried about that. He called her but could  not able to reach her. He was very disturbed. Finally she called up and asked  him to come to yummy ice cream parlor, where they used to spend most of their  time together. Her voice was not normal, that worried him a lot. He left office  early and went to the ice cream parlor.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;She was waiting for him. He went near her and asked&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Are you okay? Why you did not come to office? Any problem in your  house?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;She said, “Everything is fine”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Then why you did not come to office”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Then she told him the most unexpected words, “sorry sam, I m very sorry. But  I don’t have any other choice”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“I can’t get you. Why you telling me sorry?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Ananya said, “I m getting married soon”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;It struck like a thunder bolt to him. He was jolted and don’t know how to  react.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;She continued, “It is the end of us, we have to part. There is nothing that  can be done now. Everything is over”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“I can’t let it end this way…..I just can’t…….”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“No we have to…… we have to move on….”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“No I can’t……”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“But we have to sam… we have to move on…..”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Sam was able to hear the words in distance. Someone telling him,&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Move on man…. We have reached the office …. Come on start moving…”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Suddenly sam woke up and saw he was in bus inside the office campus. His  friend is asking him to get down from the bus. Sam was confused; he didn’t know  what was happening.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Vinod said, “Still thinking about the white salwar girl in the stop?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Only then sam realized that all this time he was dreaming about the girl,  whom he saw for a moment when he entered the bus. Sam regained his conscious and  then put iPod back in his pocket and started to get down from the bus. When he  got down he was searching for the pink salwar, but it was in vain. Sam was  thinking about his dream, then vinod said “dei athu epadi da stop nu sonna udane  unkitta than solarange nu nenaiche……”(how come u thought that she asked u to  stop the bus?). The same dialog, which he heard in his dream. He was shocked a  little and thought whether he has seen his future or Final Destination movie  kinda thing happening to him.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Then he reached his floor and got into the lift. When the door was about to  close he heard the voice again, “stop… stop…. Stop…”. He saw vinod sporting the  same mischievous smile which he envisioned in his dream. There came the pink  salwar girl with her friend. Sam was totally shocked.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Not because that Ananya(the pink salwar girl) entered the lift and everything  has been happening as he saw it in dream, but the girl next to Ananya, her  friend was more beautiful than her. She was wearing black salwar and looked  gorgeous in that.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Sam cursed himself, “How come I missed her in the dream?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Then vinod asked him “ennada machi inniki kalaile unnoda fifteenth love story  comedy ah mudinchiduchi?”(Hey dude what happened? Your fifteenth love story  ended hilariously today morning).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Aama machi but eppo seventeenth love story start ayiduchi”(yes dude, but now  seventeenth love story has started)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Enna da volarure fifteen ku apram sixteen thane da, epadi seventeen”(hey  what you are saying? Sixteen only comes after fifteen right? Then how come  seventeen?)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Sam smiled to himself, morning it was fifteen, in dreams he saw his sixteenth  love story. Now his seventeenth love story begins………….&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Disclaimer &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;All the characters in this story are fictional.

The bus was nearing the office so Sam opened  his eyes and saw people either immersed in music or having the power sleep as he  would call. Suddenly the pretty faces which looked at him in the morning popped  up in his mind, and he remembered one girl in particular, she was wearing pink  color chudi which was perfectly going with her fair complexion. He didn’t see  her properly because of the humiliation he encountered in the morning, but for a  split second they made eye contact. And that was enough for him to capture her  beauty in his mind.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;He started looking for the girl from his seat. All he was able to see was the  pink lining of her dupata. He adjusted his position to see her but it was in  vain. The bus entered the office and everyone started getting down, Sam tried to  have a look at the girl but since she was sitting in the first row she got down  early. Sam was little disappointed. Vinod was still in the hangover of the  morning happenings; he was teasing Sam and made him very angry. “dei athu epadi  da stop nu sonna udane unkitta than solarange nu nenaiche……”(how come u thought  that she asked u to stop the bus?). he was irritating him all the time till  reached the office.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;He reached his block and entered the lift to go to his floor. The lift was  about to close when he again heard the voice “stop… stop…. Stop…” vinod too  heard it and he had a mischievous smile at Sam. The lift door, which was about  to close, opened like a screen to reveal the lady in pink. Yes it was the same  girl, whom Sam was trying to see in the bus. For a moment his heart beat  stopped. But it was only for a short moment because the girl recognized him and  giggled something to her friend. He felt disappointed a little. But he was not  able to control his feelings for her. She was really good and beautiful but not  as mind blowing as the girl he saw in the morning. But she was looking  pretty.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The floor bell ringed and Sam could hear “fourth floor…” and he has to leave  the lift. But surprisingly she too got down from the lift and was wondering  where to go? Sam thought of helping her but vinod was also there. So he was not  ready for further embarrassment, if in case she ignores, so he went to his bay.  Sam started checking his mails and was seeing whether there are any mails from  onsite. Priya came near to him and said “stop stop stop..” and laughed hard. Sam  understood at once that his stunt in the morning has been broadcasted  successfully to the entire team by vinod.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;He started to work as usual. Around 11.30 Vinod pinged him in OCS,” hey  coffee?” he replied yes and they started towards the pantry. Priya too joined  them for coffee. Sam got the coffee and he was quietly sipping it, while vinod  was enacting every bit of what happened in the bus that morning to Priya and to  other team mates. Sam’s mind was engulfed with the thoughts of the pink  girl.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;They reached their bay after finishing their coffee. When Sam was about to  sit he saw pink chudi again. She was standing two bays away from him. Sam was  wondering what she was doing there. The manager of another project came there  and was talking with them.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Faintly Sam was able to hear what they were talking. The manager was  introducing them to his team.&lt;br /&gt;“She is Ananya, new folk from academy. She will  be joining our team”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Sam started to chant her name like mantra in his mind and heart. At that time  his manager called him and gave him some tasks to complete. After that, sam got  immerged into his work. Two days passed by and sam never made any advances to  her. That day the work extended till 8.30 in the evening. Almost everyone has  left in the floor. Sam got up and saw Ananya still sitting and doing something  in her system. He wanted to talk with her but was hesitant to do that so he  refrained himself from approaching her. He had some more tasks to complete so  after a quick break he started working again.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Excuse me”, sam looked up and saw Ananya near him. He was totally baffled by  her presence.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Can u please tell me how to book cab, its already late and buses have left”,  sam, though was speechless he composed himself and told her the procedure. She  said thanks and introduced herself, “I m Ananya”. Sam said to himself “yeah I  know, that is the only word that has been echoing in my mind for the past two  days”. She said thanks and retired to her place. Sam was excited because he  spoke with her for the first time. He finished his work and went to get his  cab.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;A big surprise was awaiting him, when he got into the cab, he saw Ananya.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;She said, “Hi”.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;To be continued….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Disclaimer&lt;br /&gt;All the characters in this story  are fictional.

It was April but the sun is  scorching and sucking all the water out of the body. The mobile started  screaming “who let the dogs out bow bow….” Involuntarily Sam’s hand went to  press the snooze button and went for a power sleep; this has been the routine  for almost two years.&lt;br /&gt;Sam is the protagonist of this story. He has been  working in Cognizant for the past two years. He is smart and attractive. He has  been living alone after getting transferred to the Chennai office a year before.  He has all the gadgets from iPod to Thunderbird and enjoys his bachelorhood like  a bachelor should do. He is from southern district of TamilNadu but did his  college in Chennai. After finishing the college he joined cognizant and became  citizen of the world. He travelled to USA twice and UK once for his onsite  projects. Like all parents, his parents wanted him to get married soon but he  had a dream girl in his mind and was never ready to compromise on that.&lt;br /&gt;Now  coming back to the April morning, five minutes have gone by and again the alarm  screamed “who let……….”, but this time Sam was awake. He was feeling very tired  and reluctant to go to office. He hated Monday mornings….. he took his pillow  and tried to cover his face so that the penetrating morning rays don’t disturb  him. But it was of no use; he sat on his bed and stretched his hands and legs.  He then stood up kicked his pillow and went inside the restroom to complete his  morning duties. By the time he got dressed up it was 7.40. He was supposed to  board his bus by 7.40, but it’s already time. But he was cool as usual; he knows  the bus won’t reach the stop before 7.45 so he geared up and locked his room. He  reached the bus stop at the right time and boarded the bus.&lt;br /&gt;When he entered  the bus, he felt something was different, something exciting was happening to  him. He was able to feel the cool breeze in the scorching sun, a sweet exotic  scent amongst the polluted air; he was able to hear an enchanting voice from  distance ……. “Stop, stop, stop……” , he just looked out through the door and he  was awe struck.&lt;br /&gt;He saw an angel dressed all in white and came running towards  the bus. Suddenly he remembered his friend telling him the other day, that there  are some new people gonna join the office. They are new recruits trained in  academy and are released from there to join their respective offices. That time  he showed no interest but now after seeing the angel in front of him he felt  like flying in air. There were thousand butterflies flying inside him, but  suddenly everything started moving away from him.&lt;br /&gt;He got confused, he turned  back and saw the driver pressing his leg hard on the accelerator…. He got angry  and was not ready to let the driver spoil his dream of getting near to the girl  of his dreams.&lt;br /&gt; He said “anna konjam bus niruthunga …… orunthanga era  varanga”(plz stop the bus, theres someone wanted to board it)… “illa sir signal  pottan , signal le thandi niruthuren illana late ayidum, intha signal le  thandrathu rumba kashtam”(sir let me cross the signal and stop the bus otherwise  it wil get late).. but Sam was in no mood to let his dream girl suffer in this  hot sun so he turned back to the driver and said in loud voice “ vandiye  niruthunga avanga erinathuku aparam polam”(stop the bus , let her board it then  we shall move)… driver reluctantly stopped the bus.&lt;br /&gt;His lady love was moving  towards him. His heart started to beat fast and he can hear its Lub-Dub sound.  As she came nearer he was able to see her beautiful face. She had a long hair  which was left open and it was moving like a wave, she had the best pair of lips  – rosy one, her figure was perfect and she was his dream girl. She came running  towards him and he had no idea what to do. He was still standing on the foot  board to welcome his lady into the bus. She came near and slowed down her pace.  Sam started to count the feet as she came near to him. He started to say  himself, “ ten…. Nine… eight… seven… six…. Five… four…. Three… two…. One….  Zero……” his heart stopped.&lt;br /&gt; She saw him and he got lost into her eyes. It was  the best feeling he ever had in his whole life. Suddenly he can hear a voice, it  was strong and hard… no it was not hers… it was his mind voice, he can hear it  saying, “minus one…. Minus two…. Minus three… minus four….. minus five…..” he  was puzzled, she was not boarding the bus , but she was moving past the bus. He  had no idea what was happening there. She went straight ahead and boarded a bus  which was waiting for her… yes she was not from cognizant. She belonged to  another company. She came running to board her bus. Our hero Sam was  disappointed, but suddenly he realized what happened a minute before. He was  actually having an argument with the bus driver to stop the bus. He turned back  and saw driver from the corner of his eyes…. He was looking like a villain of  old age cinema with a gruesome look. Sam saw his lips moving but can’t hear what  he was saying, but from his reaction he understood what those words were  “%%*&amp;amp;*)(&amp;amp;*%^#$!@#$@#^%$&amp;amp;*^(*&amp;amp;^&amp;amp;%^%#$%$#^$%&amp;amp;^&amp;amp;*(*&amp;amp;)(&amp;amp;*%$#$#@$#^%%*&amp;amp;^*…….”  he went calmly and sat there in the seat reserved by his friend vinoth.&lt;br /&gt;His  friend was laughing like anything that made him angrier. Suddenly the bus  stopped, he craned his neck to see what has happened, it was the traffic  signal…..RED color…..the driver tried hard to get past that signal before it  turns red, but thanks to Sam’s heroics he had to halt it before the stop line  and the timer in the signal clocked 180. Everyone in the bus looked at him in an  awful way. He saw many new faces and some pretty faces too. But he was in no  mood to think about the pretty faces. To avoid the glares, he plugged his iPod  and closed his eyes.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt;To be continued….&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Disclaimer &lt;/em&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;All the characters in this story are fictional.

As a chennaite I support chennai super  kings. I want hayden , dhoni , raina to fire and beat the rivals. I cheered when  haydos hit the balls. I was happy to see harbajan getting hit for runs. When  sachin tendulkar came to bat I was praying that he should get out as early as  possible. I was disappointed when bollinger’s bouncer missed sachin’s bat. I was  hoping he would edge the ball. When sachin was going well I was very sad but  when he retired I was happy. But again he came back to take the charge and I got  so much frustrated to see him bat fearing he might take the game away from  csk.&lt;br /&gt;After the match got over with super kings emerging as winners I went to  bed and was thinking about the match. Only then I realised that I actually  wanted haydos to hit bajji for six. I wanted bolinger to take sachin’s wicket. I  was wondering what I was actually wishing for. Sachin has been a player whom I  always wanted to hit no matter who ever bowls at him. I always wanted hayden to  get out of bajji’s ball whenever he bowls against him. But today I was actually  wanted the things to happen in reverse order. When india plays I support india ,  I support sachin, I support harbajhan, I want hayden to get out, but now my  thinking has changed. I was questioning myself have I become insane? Am I  becoming hypocrat?&lt;br /&gt;Then I realised with changing times and situations the  thinking process of men also changes. Most people say that they stand for their  principles and ready to die for the same. But how much of those promises are  true. Though there are many sachin fans in chennai how many of them supported  sachin in yesterday’s match. Though mumbai cheers dhoni whenever he leads indian  team how many mumbaikars actually cheered dhoni when he lead csk against MI. the  answer is not many.&lt;br /&gt;Mind of men fluctuate at higher rate. Men always cheer  and want only those things that are favourable to them. Most of them don’t care  for the principles they talk of. Men are more self centered except a few. I make  exception because there are few men who had lived and are living in the present,  trying to make a difference by standing hard on their principles they follow.  But most of the times those people are branded as lunatics. Only a few  percentile in that creamy layer are recognised for the their  contributions.&lt;br /&gt;With the fast changing world and rising demands life has  become more cynical. Darwin postulated survival of the fittest theory for  animals in the evolution of world, but now humans are following that theory.  With the competition around, people think mostly about their welfare rather than  thinking about the welfare of the world around us.&lt;br /&gt;On my to way office I saw  a man met with an accident and was bleeding. There were many people passing by  and most them are like me going fast to reach the office on time. No one  bothered to call the ambulance or ready to provide first to that man(including  me…..). a fellow is in distress and yet we think about ourselves first. I was  ashamed of myself when I reached office. Though we talk so much about welfare of  the world, we put our work first instead of standing by our principles.&lt;br /&gt;We  speak of helping people, but when we are given an opportunity to do so we are  not ready to dirty our hands. People must know what they really want to do and  what they can do. They must not oscillate between principles and possibilities.  As gandhi said deed and creed must be the same. Even if there are many  oppositions for our thought we must be brave enough to put forth our views and  face them without any hesitation. We must not take refuge with the situation and  excuse ourselves from deviating away from our principles. Our focus must not  change no matter whatever the difficulty we have to face.&lt;br /&gt;Only those who have  stood by their principles have attained greater heights even after they leave  this world. they have left great legacy behind them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;“Not all successful  men are remembered today, but all men who are remembered today were the ones who  had an unwavering will to stand by their principles.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-7891707762514710888?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/7891707762514710888/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=7891707762514710888' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7891707762514710888'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7891707762514710888'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2010/05/unwavering-will.html' title='Unwavering Will'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-4652258058391614054</id><published>2010-05-09T14:24:00.001+05:30</published><updated>2010-05-09T14:24:55.505+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Whatever happens life has to go on……..</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt;Whatever happens life has to go on……..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt;This has become one of the most used phrases now days when  facing a tough situation. People take advantage of this phrase to shield their  cowardice in facing the situations. One has to atleast give a try to break the  shackles and change the situation and make it desirable. Life offers us  everything but most of us are afraid to take risk and try beyond the safe zone.  Nothing is impossible if we are ready to give our best to get what we want.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt;It is true that we have to adapt ourselves to face tough  situations and get along with that, but that does not give us the liberty to  surrender our wishes and desires. If we need something and there are many  challenges before us, then we have to learn to face those difficulties and find  a way to overcome the difficulties.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt;Most times in relationships people tend to use this phrase  to hide their inability. They find it as the safest answer to escape from  complexity of the issue. If we lead a life of unfulfilled desires then it means  we have not tried enough to get the wish fulfilled. We always used to think only  about the present or the near future so we tend to be happy with what we have  got. But as life goes on and we don’t get what we want then life becomes misery.  Life is about enjoying the moment we live and making most out of it. This can be  achieved only if we have the will to fight for what we want. There are many  people in the world who have struggled hard and faced many tough situations and  have come out with flying colors. If they would have thought ‘ whatever happens  life has to go on ‘ and if they have remained the way they were living then they  would not have seen their dreams come true.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt;Life is all about individuals. Every individual is the  architect of his own life. We must not allow others to influence our life even  if it were our close relations. Because at the end of the day it is we, who have  the aspirations and longing for things. We can’t let others to decide on our  life. We have every right to be happy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt;We should develop the tendency to fight for our rights. We  should not let things go just like that without giving a fight. Especially in  relationships we must not lose the person who is special to us, even if we have  to take the toughest decision of our life. Because we can regain most things in  our lives if we lose it once but it’s not possible to regain a person once if we  lose them. We can’t sit back in a relaxed manner and say “Whatever happens life  has to go on……..” without battling out to hold on to that special person in our  life. Times spend with special person makes that moment very special and a  lifetime means a very special life. So never let relationships fall out by  saying &lt;em&gt;whatever happens life has to go on………&lt;/em&gt;Fight hard to retain the  relationships and live happily.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-4652258058391614054?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/4652258058391614054/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=4652258058391614054' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/4652258058391614054'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/4652258058391614054'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2010/05/whatever-happens-life-has-to-go-on.html' title='Whatever happens life has to go on……..'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-7846901208721448282</id><published>2009-07-15T00:16:00.002+05:30</published><updated>2009-07-15T00:21:43.511+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Sarkozy vs BURQA</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;French President Nicholas Sarkozy's description of Burqa as "a sign of subservience" has created a wave of shock around the world. Because a remark like this has come directly from the Statesman of one of the multicultural countries in the world. Earlier the French government had banned people from using religious symbol from government school and offices. This was targeted directly against the Muslims. But unfortunately many other religions like Judaism, Sikhism also has a culture of wearing scalp cap. Since the jews were involved the issue got serious and there were intense debates regarding this. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Before getting into the actual debate lets see why Sarkozy is so obsessed against Burqa. See the picture below you can clearly see Sarkozy intensions. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.bild.de/BILD/news/bild-english/world-news/2009/07/10/barack-obama-nicolas-sarkozy/kopfgrafik-barack-obama-looks-at-bottom-of-g8-gir__12798411-kg-170.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 465px; height: 170px;" src="http://www.bild.de/BILD/news/bild-english/world-news/2009/07/10/barack-obama-nicolas-sarkozy/kopfgrafik-barack-obama-looks-at-bottom-of-g8-gir__12798411-kg-170.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Since Burqa gives a modest look to the woman, Sarkozy can’t get involved in activities like this. He may not be able to see curves and bumps as he is seeing now (sorry for the language but I am forced to use these words). This is the main reason why Sarkozy wants to abolish Burqa. He doesn’t want to see woman in modest look. He said that the Burqa is a symbol of oppression against the women but the reality is it gives more confidence and makes woman more humble in the look. Many women who wear Burqa never complaint that they are oppressed but instead many take up hijab on their own and say that it is more comfortable for them. &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Many Muslims around the world have reacted strongly to this Sarkozy’s remark. In fact many women have come out strongly against this comment and have protested against this. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-7846901208721448282?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/7846901208721448282/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=7846901208721448282' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7846901208721448282'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7846901208721448282'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2009/07/sarkozy-vs-burqa.html' title='Sarkozy vs BURQA'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-3328569054084699548</id><published>2009-07-11T12:50:00.001+05:30</published><updated>2009-07-11T12:51:40.674+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Is Alcohol Ban Justified?</title><content type='html'>There have been many deaths in Gujarat due to illegal liquor trafficking. This is because the Gujarat government has banned liquor sale in any form. This is actually a welcome step but there are many people who have got addicted to this ill fated habit. What the government has to do is to first introduce programmes about the problem faced due to drinking. Though there are many programmed in the government papers there is not much action is being taken in order to execute those words in the papers.&lt;br /&gt;My opinion is that Modi government has done something good in this regard. Though his government is meant to be a more biased kind of government, this is one of the best steps taken for the betterment of the society. Modi has to take more stringent steps to punish the illegal trafficking of these liquor products. New rules should be formed and introduced in order to eliminate this liquor consumption.&lt;br /&gt;But to hinder these kinds of good policies of the government there are some big shots who take this as an opportunity to introduce these ill practices into the society legally. Mr. Mallaya , owner of the Kingfisher, is taking a dig at the government and also trying to make the alcohol distribution legal. This must be strongly condemned by all section of the society irrespective of whether they like the Gujarat government or not. We must not encourage a society where alcohol is distributed freely. This must be dealt seriously and steps like alcohol banning should be supported with full heart.&lt;br /&gt;Only strong steps like this can make our society a better one in the future where the elements of the society are free from alcohol consumption.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-3328569054084699548?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/3328569054084699548/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=3328569054084699548' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3328569054084699548'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3328569054084699548'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2009/07/is-alcohol-ban-justified.html' title='Is Alcohol Ban Justified?'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-3139737541735467784</id><published>2009-07-11T12:36:00.002+05:30</published><updated>2009-07-11T12:36:58.455+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Blogging After A  Long Time</title><content type='html'>After a long time I have decided to blog again. This time I m not going to do it for commercial purpose. I started blogging for making money but now I m not going concentrate on money since this is one of the most powerful media for expressing our thoughts and views on particular issues. After seeing many recent events around the globe where this blogging media created a great impact and invited many people to know about the happenings in those places. This is turning out to be the most sought way for expressing one’s views. So I have decided to voice out my opinions through this blogging and have decided to make most of this media. Though there are many ways to earn, there are only few ways to express our opinions without any interference and bias.&lt;br /&gt;I have decided to raise issues that are bothering the common people and will use this forum in order to create awareness among people about the problems the modern world facing now.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-3139737541735467784?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/3139737541735467784/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=3139737541735467784' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3139737541735467784'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3139737541735467784'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2009/07/blogging-after-long-time.html' title='Blogging After A  Long Time'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-4676387788481561432</id><published>2008-10-18T15:12:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2008-10-18T15:13:07.079+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Markets Sliding</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;The markets are facing a tough time through out the world.

In the letter it states that if &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;India&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; conducts Nuclear tests than the nuclear deal will be stop it. This letter was revealed to the press by a Congressman and this has lead to many controversies. After this shocking news many doubt the integrity of the &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;US&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; over this deal. Now many people are waiting for response from the Government on this issue. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-7240934540203034871?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/7240934540203034871/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=7240934540203034871' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7240934540203034871'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7240934540203034871'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/09/shocking-letter.html' title='Shocking Letter'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-3709595573019463859</id><published>2008-09-05T14:55:00.001+05:30</published><updated>2008-09-05T14:57:30.898+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Portugal Car Hire</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Portugal&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; is one of the finest countries in the European continent with rich culture and history.

All I have to do was to enter the pick up location with date and timing and the type of car I need. When I landed in the airport I was welcomed in very friendly manner by the car service employee. I was then taken to a good hotel. I stayed there for three days, all those three days I enjoyed a lot riding in a luxurious car provided by the www.carhiredirect.co.uk. The service was great. If you want to hire car then don’t think just click on to the www.carhiredirect.co.uk and register yourself.

Fire in such place in the city caused a sense of shock to the city people. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-7017521245771029528?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/7017521245771029528/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=7017521245771029528' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7017521245771029528'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7017521245771029528'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/09/fire-in-chennais-busiest-street.html' title='Fire in Chennai&apos;s Busiest Street'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-8521165847733718284</id><published>2008-08-30T15:08:00.003+05:30</published><updated>2008-09-01T20:08:12.311+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Great American Seafood Recipes</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;I like to have nice food items for my meals. Sea foods are my favorite. But the problem with sea foods is that mostly the same kind of recipe will be used to prepare the sea foods. I was very bored with the same dishes so I browsed in the internet to see new recipes and I came across the Great American Seafood &lt;a href="http://socialspark.com/metrics/click/post?slot_id=19072&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.greatamericanseafoodcookoff.com%2F" rel="nofollow"&gt;cook off&lt;/a&gt; in the website www.GreatAmericanSeafoodCookOff.com. It is a great website where many great chefs have posted their recipes on the sea foods. In fact all the recipes are mouth watering and are very compelling to eat. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;This website runs a voting to pick up the best recipe. Top chefs around the country are fighting to win this competition. You can be a judge for this competition. All you have to do is go to the www.GreatAmericanSeafoodCookOff.com and click “Vote and Enter to Win a Trip to &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;New Orleans&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;: RECIPE CONTEST” and cast your vote for your favorite recipe out of the five recipes present there. If you click “Enter to Win” you can actually get a chance to win a free trip to &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;New   Orleans&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt; as a prize. This is a great opportunity for you to win a grand prize. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;Personally my favorite recipe is Texas Gulf Shrimp by Chef Mark Holley of &lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Texas&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:state&gt;. It is so spicy and looks good too. All these recipes are domestic sea food so they are fresh and healthy. So they can be had without any fear. So now is the time for you to select the best sea food recipe and win a grand trip to &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;New Orleans&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;. So cast your vote soon and enjoy the trip. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://socialspark.com/metrics/click/disclosure?slot_id=19072&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.louisianaseafood.com%2F" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;img alt="Sponsored by Lousiana Seafood" src="http://socialspark.com/metrics/view/post?slot_id=19072&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fsocialspark.com%2Fuploads%2Fsocialspark%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdisclosure_badges%2F15659%2Fgray_disclosure_badge.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-8521165847733718284?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/8521165847733718284/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=8521165847733718284' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/8521165847733718284'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/8521165847733718284'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/08/great-american-seafood-recipes.html' title='Great American Seafood Recipes'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-4579821666036394452</id><published>2008-08-30T11:49:00.001+05:30</published><updated>2008-08-30T11:51:40.156+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Mahi Magic</title><content type='html'>&lt;p style="font-family: arial;font-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Mahendra Singh Dhoni once again proved that he is the best cricketer of our country by claiming the man of the series award in the recently concluded one day series between &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;India&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; and Srilanka.

Most of the outsourcing companies in India have clients from America. This field is at its pinnacle now. But in a recent campaign Barrack Obama, the Presidential candidate of the Democratic Party expressed his view on this outsourcing business. He said that America should not depend on the other countries instead they should concentrate on their own development. This means that he is against the outsourcing business in India. This is indeed a very bad news for the Indian Outsourcing industry. Many young people are employed in this industry. So if the US based companies stop providing contracts to the Indian companies then it will greatly affect our Indian economy.

But the farmers living there are protesting against the government and TATA’s because they don’t want to give up their land for the TATA Company. But this project comes up in that place then it will lead to economic prosperity of that place and moreover many job opportunities will be created in that state. But many politicians want to gain mileage out of this issue and are against this project. Because of this ongoing tussle between the villagers and the company there is a speculation that TATA might go for another place for this project.

It is a proud moment for all of us because this is the first time &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;India&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; is getting three medals in a single Olympics. A nation which has a population of 1000 million is capable of getting only three medals in Olympics. It’s very disheartening to hear this. And adding more fuel to the fire every one of us is celebrating this moment. I am not trying to take away the glory from the medal winners they deserve more than a normal applause. But at the same time we have to think about our failure in many sports. Even though we have talent pool in our country we cannot get more medals in international events. Countries which have less population and poor economy have got more gold medals than &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;India&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;. If those countries can do it why cant us? It’s the time for citizens like us to think. If we are happy with three medals then &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;India&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; will have to fight for the bottom places in the medal tally but if we take the correct steps now then in future games we may top the medals tally.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;Where you want our &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;India&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; to be in the bottom or in the top?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-795376823320737700?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/795376823320737700/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=795376823320737700' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/795376823320737700'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/795376823320737700'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/08/where-you-want-our-india-to-be-in.html' title='Where you want our India to be in the bottom or in the top?'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-2856656461014825109</id><published>2008-08-21T23:30:00.003+05:30</published><updated>2008-08-21T23:42:32.421+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Are you Normal?</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;Have you ever felt embarrassed because of your behavior in public?

There ground had some pot holes I didn’t see that unknowingly I landed in one of them and got injured. Then I retired from the game.

The couple wants to abort their foetus because it has got congenital heart disease.But the problem here is that the foetus is 26 weeks old. According to Indian law the abortion can be performed only if the foetus is under 20 weeks. Here comes the problem for Mehta’s, since it is 26 weeks old the court denied permission to go ahead with abortion. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;My personal opinion is that the child should be aborted because even if it is born it has to undergo so many complications in life and moreover Mehta’s have to spend a lot of money to keep their child healthy. According to me this should come under euthanasia not as abortion. Because it also creates problem for that unborn child. Last but not the least; we must also consider how painful it must be for Mehta’s to abort their child, parents holds more love to their child than any other person in the world, when they feel that their child must be aborted we must respect their decision.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-3799420306697414651?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/3799420306697414651/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=3799420306697414651' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3799420306697414651'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3799420306697414651'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/08/abortion-or-euthansia.html' title='Abortion or Euthansia?'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-8237930945446736870</id><published>2008-07-30T19:31:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-30T19:32:02.990+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Bomb Scare Rumors</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;People are panic al over &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;India&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; because of bomb scare.

I started blogging last year and at first I found it difficult to select topics for writing the posts. And even after selecting the topic I had difficulties in deciding what to write in the posts in order to make others read my blog. But after sometime it became easy for me. It is true that experience maketh a man perfect. After six months of blogging I am finding it easy to select topics and write about them in a good manner. I started blogging because I wanted to express my views about varied issues to the world. But now it has become my hobby. I can’t go without blogging even a single day now. At first I used to write one or posts every week. But now I write two or more posts a day. Blogging has helped me to improve my language and vocabulary. Moreover I feel confident of writing about any issues. This has been truly a great experience for me. I hope that I will complete 100 blogs in coming days and I wish to continue my blogging forever. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Finally I would like to thank all who supported me in this venture.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-7200692006366546324?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/7200692006366546324/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=7200692006366546324' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7200692006366546324'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7200692006366546324'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/my-50th-post.html' title='My 50th Post'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-2888946794905106570</id><published>2008-07-28T11:00:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-28T11:10:30.495+05:30</updated><title type='text'>My Gym</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I always wanted to go to the gym to have healthy body.

I was totally shocked after seeing the film because of the way the film ended. It made me to wonder whether it was the same person who gave us the famous Sixth Sense. Sixth Sense was a master piece and even many critics around the world still hail that film as one of the finest works of world cinema. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Coming back to the Happening it starts in the city of &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;New York&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;. People dying there in a mysterious way. They start to kill themselves all of sudden without any reason. This spreads to near area also. Many dying in an unusual manner. The film starts with a sense of horror and mystery. It goes well for some period making the viewers think about the different possibilities of the source of events. The director is successful in that sense and holds this mystery till the end.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But the worst part came in the end. The climax was very much unexpected. I will rate it as one of the worst climaxes of all time. The director must have considered a different end to the story which would have reasoned with the mystery it creates for most part of the story. But the director fails to deliver it in a perfect manner.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I will rate Happening 4 out of 10 scale because of the way it induces the sense of thrill in the viewers mind in the first half of the film but for otherwise it is bad. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-3058113157170779963?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/3058113157170779963/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=3058113157170779963' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3058113157170779963'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3058113157170779963'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/happening-review.html' title='Happening - A Review'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-6100286666680536221</id><published>2008-07-28T10:23:00.001+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-28T10:48:37.770+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Unwanted publicity</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Nuclear deal and trust vote were the words that were reverberating throughout the country for the past few days until it was completed in the Parliament. After that a fresh controversy gained significance because of the trust vote. It is nothing but our beloved MP’s taking bribes either to abstain or vote for the nuclear deal and it remains the talk of the country even today. I think this issue was given so much importance when the country is facing tough times because of the inflation rate and price hike of petroleum products. There was so much media coverage for the nuclear deal and the trust vote when the country is going through difficult period. Was this kind of hype needed for this issue? Was it blown out of proportion? Was it worth so much? If we ask these questions then the definite answer will be no.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Since the media was gaining from this issue it was been taken as the topic of discussion when there were so many problems which needed urgent attention. The inflation rate has gone down by a very small percent and how many citizens knew this? Though it was a small drop it is very significant at this time. Because &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;India&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; is a country of middle class people so even a small drop in price of necessary commodities will have a significant impact in their lives. But this was totally ignored and attention was given to a dirty political drama. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-6100286666680536221?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/6100286666680536221/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=6100286666680536221' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/6100286666680536221'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/6100286666680536221'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/unwanted-publicity.html' title='Unwanted publicity'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-7611437877386648942</id><published>2008-07-28T10:10:00.002+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-28T10:52:25.824+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Pride and Prejudice</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.audiostores.co.uk/pride.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://www.audiostores.co.uk/pride.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Now I have decided to write about my favorite book. It’s none other than Jane Austen’s PRIDE AND PREJUDICE. The best book I have ever read. I came to know about this book in my 8&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; standard. It was there in my syllabus as a part of English subject. At first I read this book from examination point of view. So at that time I didn’t realize how good that book was? Then I finished my 10&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; standard and I had long holidays. I was getting bored doing nothing at home so I just took this book and read for time pass. At that time I realized that the book was awesome. I started to understand its text very well. Every character in that book is carved in such manner that no flaws can be found in it. The best thing of this book is it can be related even to this modern world. Usually I don’t like romantic and light novels, but this book is a complete exception. I was so much involved in this book that I have read more than 100 times now. Whenever I feel happy or sad I will read this book. I like the scenes between Lizzy and Darcy.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;It will be so romantic and so much real. If I start writing about this book then I would have to write a separate book in praise of it. So I am concluding here by saying that this is one of the finest works in English Literature.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-7611437877386648942?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/7611437877386648942/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=7611437877386648942' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7611437877386648942'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7611437877386648942'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/pride-and-prejudice.html' title='Pride and Prejudice'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-5540629363414413982</id><published>2008-07-28T10:08:00.001+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-28T10:08:59.854+05:30</updated><title type='text'>India defeated yet again</title><content type='html'>India’s defeat against the SriLankan’s was one of the worst defeats for them in the cricketing history. There was a sense of over confidence within the Indian camp. And everyone seemed to underestimate the Lankan ability. Hats off for the SriLanka for they struck to the basics of the game and really played with great composure. A special mention has to given to Ajantha Mendis. He lived up to the expectation it was no that for a youngster like him to perform so well in his debut test match. There was great reception for him when he came to bowl his firs river. He continued his job of dominating the Indians. I think he is still having the Asia Cup hangover. And Murali, I have no words to describe him. He really proved that he is a spin wizard. Great sense of commitment coupled with excellent bowling. He really did a great job against the strong Indian batting line up. Nonetheless is the contribution of the SriLankan batsmen.

This is a good news for Indian people especially the middle class Indians. But the inflation rate should come down more. In March it was around 5% but now it is close to 12%. This massive increase in the inflation is due to price hike of the crude oil in the global market. But experts say that poor economic policies of government are also responsible for the price hike. So now the inflation rate has started to see the down slope and many are hoping that this must continue in the future also.

So Information Technology (IT) field is fast developing. Many IT companies have come up in recent years. So there is a great opportunity for individuals who are interested in building up their career in this field. Networking forms the major part of the IT field and the companies look for the individuals who have good knowledge and skill in handling the network infrastructure of the company. Many institutions offer network courses but CISCO is the best among them. &lt;a href="http://socialspark.com/metrics/click/post?slot_id=13303&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cisco.com%2Fgo%2Flearnnetspace%3Futm_source%3Dblog%26utm_medium%3Dmedia%26utm_content%3DGeneralTech%26utm_campaign%3DInc" rel="nofollow"&gt;Cisco certification&lt;/a&gt; is acknowledged by many giants in IT field. CISCO provides certifications in &lt;span style=""&gt;Routing &amp;amp; Switching&lt;b&gt;, &lt;/b&gt;Security, Storage Networking and many more. These certifications are very valued in many IT companies. They offer these courses in four levels: Entry, Associate, Professional, and Expert. In addition to these four levels of certification, individuals can further improve their knowledge in fields like &lt;/span&gt;security, IP telephony, and wireless through Specialist Certifications. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Few months back my friend enrolled himself in CISCO and got CCNA certification. Immediately after getting his certificate he got into one of the leading IT companies of the world. He said that CISCO not only gives theoretical knowledge but also a practical guidance in the networking field which is helping him in his work. After seeing his achievement I enrolled myself in CISCO and I am currently doing CCNA certification. I have learnt many things about networking in few days of classes. This is really good. And now I am confident of getting into a good IT company like my friend.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If you want have to build a good career in IT field just join CISCO. Many people say that there are no shortcuts to success but according to me CISCO is the shortcut to succeed in IT field.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://socialspark.com/metrics/click/disclosure?slot_id=13303&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cisco.com%2Fgo%2Flearnnetspace%3Futm_source%3Dblog%26utm_medium%3Dmedia%26utm_content%3DGeneralTech%26utm_campaign%3DInc" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;img alt="Sponsored by Cisco" src="http://socialspark.com/metrics/view/post?slot_id=13303&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fsocialspark.com%2Fuploads%2Fsocialspark%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fdisclosure_badges%2F12832%2Fgray_disclosure_badge.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-7025557638246573683?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/7025557638246573683/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=7025557638246573683' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7025557638246573683'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7025557638246573683'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/open-cisco-certification.html' title='Open Cisco Certification'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-1290033895952544901</id><published>2008-07-24T11:30:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-24T11:31:35.280+05:30</updated><title type='text'>The Holy Quran teaches Brotherhood and Peace</title><content type='html'>There is a misconception about Islam that, it encourages terrorism. But it is wrong in all aspects. To be more honest it spreads peace and develops brotherhood among all human beings. Islam believes that none is above the creator Allah and everyone is equal before Allah. A simple example to demonstrate is the way Muslims pray five times a day. All are made stand in rows with shoulders touching. At this time even poor man can stand beside a king. Such is the equality practiced in Islam. Prophet Mohammed (pbuh), when talking about wars said that children, women, old age and sick people should be spared; a believer should fight only those who have the equal power as him and is ready to fight against him. Such is the policy of Islam on fight. It teaches peace and brotherhood but there is a false prejudice against Islam in recent years and this must change. Before saying any allegations against Islam one should know what Islam says, the Holy Quran is guidance for all Muslims, in fact it is meant for all the human beings, which says elaborately about peace and brotherhood. If anyone reads it and understands it fully then that person will not say anything wrong about Islam.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-1290033895952544901?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/1290033895952544901/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=1290033895952544901' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/1290033895952544901'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/1290033895952544901'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/holy-quran-teaches-brotherhood-and.html' title='The Holy Quran teaches Brotherhood and Peace'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-159581130189529746</id><published>2008-07-24T01:32:00.003+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-24T01:38:06.694+05:30</updated><title type='text'>How do you get their attention?</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Flirting is the art of attracting the other person’s attention by your skills. Usually it involves lots of observation. You look your partner, admire their beauty and demand the same to be reciprocated. This is the basics of flirting. So looking is of greater value in this art. Your look has to be so intense that your eyes should start communicating with your partner. It must radiate your thoughts to your partners. In school days I used to flirt with my class mates. I used to have a long gaze at them. Whenever they see me I will wish them with a smile. And most of the time my smile will be returned.

This includes the Lok Sabha Speaker Somnath Chatterji. He was formally removed from CPM because he refused to step down as the Speaker of the House. The left parties were the ones who were responsible for this trust vote by withdrawing its support for Manmohan Singh’s government because of the nuclear deal issue. The left were opposing the Prime Minister right from the beginning against the nuclear deal. But the government was adamant in its views of going ahead with deal. Because of this conflict the left withdrew its support for the government. CPM asked Somnath Chatterji to resign from the Speaker post before the trust vote. But he refused to do so and remain as the Speaker of the House.

But when confronted with an Indian student he/she will tell that this country has got a bad education system. Why there are such conflicting opinions about Indian education system? If we analyze deeply we will get only one answer. Indian educational system emphasizes more on memorizing. Because of this reason the memory retaining capacity of the student increases and Indian student takes in more data than other students. But there is a problem in this system, since more emphasize is given on memorizing he student loses his thinking capacity thereby his creative power goes down. Because of this reason many Indian students feel that our education system is not up to the mark. Only marks are given more weight age than the thinking capacity of the students. This must change both the memorizing and thinking capacity should be improved in order to get the right balance.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-5410989468511694933?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/5410989468511694933/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=5410989468511694933' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/5410989468511694933'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/5410989468511694933'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/indian-education-system.html' title='Indian Education System'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-5742040527327214828</id><published>2008-07-23T17:49:00.001+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-23T18:33:01.308+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Alzheimer’s Memory Walk</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I went to my sister’s house last Sunday. Usually when I go to her house my sister’s mother-in-law used to welcome me with a broad smile. She is a very kind and jovial person. But when I reached her home this Sunday there was a gloomy mood in the house. My sister told that her mother-in-law has got Alzheimer disease. I was shocked to hear that. I went near to console her but she didn’t recognize me. Then my sister told me that it’s a brain disease which takes away the memory from a person. I felt heart broken to hear that there is no complete cure for this disease. I searched the internet to find a solution and came across Alzheimer association. This association conducts &lt;a href="http://socialspark.com/metrics/click/post?slot_id=12849&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fclk.atdmt.com%2FTGA%2Fgo%2F108708473%2Fdirect%2F01%2F" rel="nofollow"&gt;Alzheimer's Memory Walk&lt;/a&gt; every year to create awareness about the disease and raises funds for research and support.

So Manmohan Singh government can complete its full tenure even after the withdrawal of support from the left. But new controversy has begun because of this trust vote. Opposition claims that the MP’s were bribed either to abstain from voting or to vote in favor of the government. It is said that Amar Singh is in charge of this work. With the support of some corporate he bribed some MP’s to vote in favor of the government. Now this issue is taking a ugly turn. As said by experts this trust vote turned to be an open market where MP’s are at sale.

He won the Nobel Prize for photoelectric effect. He went on world tour to explain people about his research and answered their questions. He shared his knowledge with many scientists of his time. Each time he went around he used to take his car driver along with him so that he can drive Einstein safely where ever he goes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One day, the car diver told Albert Einstein, that he wanted to get some applause, for the discovery that Albert Einstein has made, because he was desperate to become famous like him. Einstein agreed and asked him to face the audience for a question/answer session for a particular theory and Einstein wore the dress of the car driver and stood beside him. The car driver read the written material in front of the audience. Then he had to face the question and answer session. When one person asked the difficult question, the car driver could not answer it but immediately quipped,oh!,it is so simple!, even my car driver could answer it. He fetched Einstein for the answer, who explained easily.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-2500712897837948440?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/2500712897837948440/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=2500712897837948440' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/2500712897837948440'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/2500712897837948440'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/albert-einstein-and-his-driver.html' title='Albert Einstein and his Driver'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-2684213976590976574</id><published>2008-07-19T22:21:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-22T00:46:34.996+05:30</updated><title type='text'>My college</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_48kjzz5-WP8/SITAw2dTdFI/AAAAAAAAAHY/o93xDqg5G7g/s1600-h/P1010129.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_48kjzz5-WP8/SITAw2dTdFI/AAAAAAAAAHY/o93xDqg5G7g/s400/P1010129.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5225513413141296210" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;This is my college.

I joined this college in 2004. At first I thought why I have joined this college? But as time went on I started to enjoy my college life a lot. Many of my friends from other college used to describe it as jail, but they didn’t know that we enjoyed more than them. I had many good and bad memories.

Ricky Ponting, Mathew Hayden, Andrew Symonds, Andrew Flintoff are some of the players who are concerned about the security. They have even asked to reconsider the location of the venues. Many experts say that if the venue has to be changed then &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;South Africa&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; or &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;India&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; might be selected as the alternate venue for the Champions Trophy. Whatever it be the cricket fans expect a good competition and great entertainment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-3876865305499199105?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/3876865305499199105/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=3876865305499199105' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3876865305499199105'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3876865305499199105'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/champions-trophy.html' title='Champions Trophy'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-1542279972566343668</id><published>2008-07-09T14:15:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-22T00:45:09.251+05:30</updated><title type='text'>I Need You To Live</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Wandering through thick woods&lt;br /&gt;In a hollow mind&lt;br /&gt;Nature captivated my imagination&lt;br /&gt;In its own kind&lt;br /&gt;Birds chirping, Winds whistling&lt;br /&gt;Creating a sacred music&lt;br /&gt;To which the trees dancing&lt;/p&gt;

The team was totally different in their approach and they also felt the pressure chasing in the final. Srilankan skipper Mahela Jayawardene's idea of bringing a new bowler Mendis in the final worked out. Indians were unable to read his unique grip and were totally deceived by his flight and release. This same Mendis is going to bowl india in the test series which is scheduled to be held in Srilanka in a few days. Lets see how India play in the test series against the same opponent.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="meta"&gt;&lt;a href="http://parishilton-club.com/?p=66#respond" title="Comment on worst performance by indians"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-3351977426853658071?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/3351977426853658071/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=3351977426853658071' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3351977426853658071'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/3351977426853658071'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/indias-final-woes.html' title='India&apos;s Final Woes'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-7755481287208425780</id><published>2008-07-01T00:31:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-22T00:44:42.364+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Sensex calculation</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Sensex is calculated using the "Free-float Market Capitalization" methodology. As per this methodology, the level of index at any point of time reflects the Free-float market value of 30 component stocks relative to a base period. The market capitalization of a company is determined by multiplying the price of its stock by the number of shares issued by the company. This market capitalization is further multiplied by the free-float factor to determine the free-float market capitalization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The base period of Sensex is 1978-79 and the base value is 100 index points. This is often indicated by the notation 1978-79=100. The calculation of Sensex involves dividing the Free-float market capitalization of 30 companies in the Index by a number called the Index Divisor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Divisor is the only link to the original base period value of the Sensex. It keeps the Index comparable over time and is the adjustment point for all Index adjustments arising out of corporate actions, replacement of scrips etc. During market hours, prices of the index scrips, at which latest trades are executed, are used by the trading system to calculate Sensex every 15 seconds and disseminated in real time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/690479274718434817-7755481287208425780?l=arafathblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/feeds/7755481287208425780/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=690479274718434817&amp;postID=7755481287208425780' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7755481287208425780'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/690479274718434817/posts/default/7755481287208425780'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://arafathblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/sensex-calculation.html' title='Sensex calculation'/><author><name>ARFI</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15536797464832775904</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690479274718434817.post-6223561663133832156</id><published>2008-06-28T11:18:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2008-07-22T00:47:04.144+05:30</updated><title type='text'>My Prayers.....</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;In the midst of teen,&lt;br /&gt;I came across a cool breeze,&lt;br /&gt;Never thought at that moment&lt;br /&gt;My life will depend on it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I didn’t believe in the fairy tales&lt;br /&gt;Till she came through my way&lt;br /&gt;She captivated me&lt;br /&gt;Through her enchanting eyes.&lt;br /&gt;Nor it was her intend&lt;br /&gt;Or my mistake&lt;br /&gt;It’s the fate which&lt;br /&gt;Brought us together;&lt;br /&gt;But the bliss of joy&lt;br /&gt;Remained only for a while.&lt;br /&gt;She went&lt;br /&gt;Away from me&lt;/p&gt;

A good coordination earned them the first goal and a penalty corner gave them the second.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though India had penalty corners awarded to them they did not convert it into goals, the same old problem for Indian hockey team. There was no commitment by the players. They didnt show any longing to play well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If this continues then India will be no longer in the world hockey map.Chakde India ,a film based on Indian hockey was made and the inspirational song from that movie is now a days used in the cricket field for their celebrating  their success.Many hockey fans in India want to hear it in the hockey field but its not happening.

He is the son of Prince Charles and late Princess Dianna. He is the third to the British Throne.Prince Harry is currently a officer in the British Army and a Second Lieutenant, or ‘Cornet’, in the Blues and Royals, which, together with the Life Guards, forms The Household Cavalry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though he is in military he was not allowed to go to Iraq while his mates went in to fight there.
