10月14日 What a Peace of Luck!The winner of the nobel peace prize for the year 2009 is ... Yes. We all know now. Barrack Obaamaa. The joke of the year - Nobel Peace Prize 2009. Nobel Peace Prize for a man heading a country which is fighting wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and Iran! It makes the award itself insignificant and mocks the institution. There are some questions. What is the criteria for the award? Is it possible that certain Noble Prizes are awarded for political reasons? What is the point of awarding the prize to Obama? What are his achievements? Obama may have been a good choice for being nominated for the TIMES Man-of-the-Year Award in December 2009. But Nobel Peace Prize! There must be something to this error in judgement, or else how could it happen so many times over in the awarding of a prize relating to work for PEACE. Al Gore - was it as a compensation to having lost the Presidential election? Otherwise what has Climate Change got to do with peace. Al Gore should have been given the BBC World Challenge Award 2007 not the Nobel Peace Prize. Nelson Mandela - for having spent 27 years in prison? How was he instrumental in ending apartheid in SA, sitting in a prison? Yes he was peaceful all the 27 years. It was not the personal initiatives of Mr. Mandela and Mr. de Klerk that ended apartheid in SA. It were the circumstances that compelled them to. It was not an individual here who was responsible for founding democracy in SA. The democratic movement had that strength. I am sure, there are many more examples. And I am sure there is a better explanation to this announcement in the category of Peace. 1月15日 skated !It was after twenty odd years that I donned a skating shoe (in fact a pair of them). It was, though, with a difference that now, I was on blades, on ice and surprisingly balanced. This was on the new year's eve on Nevsky Prospect. For an hour I glided along with my princess. By the end my ankles ached a bit, but it was fun. 11月20日 his palette or minethe
last of the auburn leaves 11月14日 क्यों लब्जों में मेरे है कवियों सी बानी गर्मियों की तुम ठंडी पवन हो सर्दियों की नर्म धूप तुम हो बारिश की बूंदों सी तुम्हारी सदायें रात घनी है या जुल्फें खुलीं हैं चाँद खिला है या है चेहरा तुम्हारा हवा में तुम्हारे बदन की है खुशबू फ़िज़ा में तुम्हारे आँचल की छाया यह श्याम सुनहरी है या तुम्हारे पलकों का साया बता दो कोई यह हुआ क्या मुझे है क्या इसी को लोग दीवानगी हैं कहते ? 9月29日 divo ostrovan amusement park on kristovsky island. worth a weekend. some rides were not for the week knee-d.

9月23日 Weekend News
9月18日 Treasure in a Backpackfrom my little one's library came home a fantastical book. The pages took me into an enchanted, magical world - a world of faeries, elves, goblins, trolls, griffins and the likes. The book was one of the Spiderwick Chronicles series - The Seeing Stone. It is like the Rowling's and Tolkien's or the Philip Pullman's trilogy - about the magical world. Another book of the same genre that I read sometime back is, Samit Basu's Simoqin Prophecies. Basu's book was a nice read sprinkled with Indian touch here and there, along with a somewhat western influence too. We must find a way to make our own Vikram aur Vetaal and other mythological tales - as interesting. 9月15日 over the weekendwe went towards novocherkaskaya metro station and walked till lagoskaya metro station on the zanevskiy prospect (?) had french fries and grub at the Mac. the visit to the yusopov palace was nice too, although we missed the rasputin exhibition. 9月11日 House of WineI am reading 'madhushala' by Harivanshrai Bachchan. I stumbled upon this while browsing the net. The words are sweet and beautiful ... it's a treat to read them. Like to read it too? (in devanagari)? please click here 9月10日 some yet to doslearn swimming learn urdu study english play a guitar &/or a violin write beautiful poems get a six-packs ab travel more ... 9月2日 After two decades ... ... by sheer chance, old mates from school meet over the internet. The zeal however subsides quickly. Everyone busy with their own lives and work. Or ...? However, here is the sheer magic of internet ... real time touch base. How did the good old ancestors manage at all? And other thoughts. And then I bought the 7th book of JKRowling. Yeah, maybe soo late, but I bought it now - completing the journey from Hongkong airport to the city of St. Petersburg. But am busy reading somethings else - lying all around me. One day I have to collect all the leaves. |
