ones holy guys want us to read.
Life's Little Instruction Book
. Have a firm handshake.
. Look people in the eye.
. Sing in the shower.
. Own a great stereo system.
. If in a fight, hit first and hit hard.
. Keep secrets.
. Never give up on anybody. Miracles happen everyday.
. Always accept an outstretched hand.
. Be brave. Even if you're not, pretend to be. No one can tell
the difference.
. Whistle.
. Avoid sarcastic remarks.
. Choose your life's mate carefully. From this one decision will
come 90 per cent of all your happiness or misery.
. Make it a habit to do nice things for people who will never
find out.
. Lend only those books you never care to see again.
. Never deprive someone of hope; it might be all that they have.
. When playing games with children, let them win.
. Give people a second chance, but not a third.
. Be romantic.
. Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know.
. Loosen up. Relax. Except for rare life-and-death matters,
nothing is as important as it first seems.
. Don't allow the phone to interrupt important moments. It's
there for your convenience, not the caller's.
. Be a good loser.
. Be a good winner.
. Think twice before burdening a friend with a secret.
. When someone hugs you, let them be the first to let go.

. Be bold and courageous. When you look back on life, you'll
regret the things you didn't do more than the one's you did.
. Never waste an opportunity to tell someone you love them.
. Remember no one makes it alone. Have a grateful heart and be
quick to acknowledge those who helped you.
. Take charge of your attitude. Don't let someone else choose it
for you.
. Visit friends and relatives when they are in hospital; you
need only stay a few minutes.
. Begin each day with some of your favourite music.
. Once in a while, take the scenic route.
. Send a lot of Valentine cards. Sign them, 'Someone who thinks
you're terrific.'

. Keep a note pad and pencil on your bed-side table.
Million-dollar ideas sometimes strike at 3 a.m.
. Show respect for everyone who works for a living, regardless
of how trivial their job.
. Send your loved ones flowers. Think of a reason later.
. Become someone's hero.
. Marry only for love.
. Count your blessings.
. Compliment the meal when you're a guest in someone's home.
. Wave at the children on a school bus.
. Remember that 80 per cent of the success in any job is based
on your ability to deal with people.
. Don't expect life to be fair.
Jk Lasser in the Book "How to pick stocks like Warren Buffet" writes on Benjamin Graham 10 signs of a bargain stock
A company would have to meet seven of the following ten criteria (as laid out
in Security Analysis) before Graham would consider it a cheap stock:
1. An earnings-to-price yield (the opposite of the price-earnings ratio) that
is twice the current yield of an AAA (top-rated) bond. If bonds are yielding
5 percent, the earnings yield of a stock should be 10 percent. In other
words, you could get 5 percent fairly safely; to take on the risk of a stock,
you want twice the possible reward.
2. A p-e ratio that is historically low for that stock. Specifically, it should be
two-fifths of the average p-e ratio the shares had over the past five years.
3. A dividend yield of two-thirds of the AAA bond yield. (Obviously, stocks
that don’t pay dividends wouldn’t qualify under this rule.)
4. A stock price that is two-thirds of the tangible book value per share.
5. A stock price that is two-thirds of the net current asset value or the net
quick-liquidation value.
6. Total debt lower than tangible book value.
7. A current ratio of two or more.
8. Total debt that’s not more than net quick-liquidation value.
9. Earnings that have doubled within the past ten years.
10. Earnings that have declined no more than 5 percent in two of the past ten
years.
The individual investor, Graham counseled, should adapt these rules to his
or her own situation.
• If an investor needs income, he or she should pay special attention to rules
1 through 7—especially, of course, to rule 3, the one requiring high
dividends.
• An investor who wants safety along with growth might pay special attention
to rules 1 through 5, along with 9 and 10.
• An investor emphasizing growth can ignore dividends, but should pay
special attention to rules 9 and 10, underweighting 4, 5, and 6.
Readers : If you need the book do let me know, its a must read for any investor or follower of the markets. .
I wish our politicians also had some below the belt Ad campaign instead of the usual Fights in the Parliament

Just saw Dor on DVD, one of the most colourful and Vibrant movie of the year. Amazing cinematography and contrasting locations, from the Dry Sand dunes of Rajasthan to green lush mountains to Himachal Pradesh.
Dor is the story about 2 different women from different places connected by a common incident in Saudi Arabia. Its about a women's quest and journey to seek pardon for the Husband who faces death penalty for the accidental death of his friend. The only way she can save her husband is if the victims wife signs the MAafinama(Pardon petition) as per Saudi Law.
The movie brings out the best in Ayesha Takia, Gul Panag also does a great job and ye Shreyas Talpade who plays a Bahuroopiya finally speaks and he surely does speak and mimic more than needed.
Like every Nagesh Kuknoor film it has good songs by Salim-Sulaiman.The best songs are Yeh Honsla, Imaan Ka Asar, Kesariya Balam
Worth a Dekko 3.5/5
G1. As usual Nagesh Kuknoor saved money by giving himself a role in the movie.
G2. Ayesha Takia has no hot scene so don't get the DVD if your expecting any hot scenes.
G3. During the shooting of the climax Train scene Ayesha Takia trips and falls while running parallel to the train.
G4. Ayesha considers Nagesh Kuknoor as her Brother :)), Poor Nagesh KLPD.
Just saw Don at the shady Doha Cinema.
Well made and well shot with total suspense... Must Dekko!!
I would give 4/5.
It was Eid Holiday out here in Doha, The cinema was jam pack like some desi theatre with people fighting and geesing in the lines. It was a rare full house show with people fighting inside the theatre with Cops arresting a few while movie was on.
It was very much worth the effort to see a well made remake.
May this Diwali and Eid bring all the Happiness & Prosperity in your lives.
best wishes

At the CGC Iftar Party at the Continental.
The problem with Buffet's is that I am always confused what to eat and what not to eat.
And yes Arabic food is my favorite :))
I was down with fever and cough but couldn't afford to miss this mega event, infact the food did pep me up.
Check out more Iftar pics on my Flickr Page http://www.flickr.com/photos/bombaylives/sets/72157594326604117/
Shiv sena(Udhav Thackeray) & MNS (Raj Thackeray) group doing waht they do the best.. Street Battles.
Shiv Sena has over 40 years doing this while MNS is on new turf.
For those who came in late Shiv Sena fought Street Battles with Gujaratis, Madrasis, Dalits, Communists, Muslims, Bhaiyas and now they fighting among themselves.
I'm sure there might be many non maharashtrians watching this comedy and saying " I"m Lovin It"
As for me personally I wish they did the wresting in the Sardar Patel Wresting Stadium in Worli ..
They guys who are having the last laugh Narayan Rane, Ganesh Naik and Chaggan Bhujbal ...
This is the place where I go for my daily dose of Shawarmas, Appetizers, umalis, Sheesh Kebabs and other Arabic food.

DNA has this story about IC Colony and St Francis School, Well there's nothing wrong with the story but the journalist has shamelessly flicked a photo of my school from my Photo Album on Flickr and hasn't even bothered to inform me leave aside giving credit.
