Dasavathaaram - 3.5/5

Nice movie, Kamal Haasan rocks!!

I think its one of the first Indian Movies to have a subject around the chaos theory and the butterfly effect

Also the first movie to have George Bush, Manmohan Singh, Jayalalitha, Karunanidhi.

Kamal's efforts are definitely laudable and deserves a salute

and yes at 140 crore its India's most expensive movie

**3.5 - 5 points

Crazy Govt taxes on Housing

After the 5 per cent Value Added Tax (VAT) the state government is levying a 4.5 per cent service tax on all new flats.

The whole logic is funny coz already VAT is being paid on the entire component that goes into constructing a building.

The new taxes so that makes it Rs 4.5 lakh for a flat worth Rs 50 lakh, plus another 2-3 lakhs for registrations & brokerages.

Surprisingly this news has come only in Mumbai Mirror; no other publication or TV channel has picked it up.

I don’t know if this is true or not, if it’s true then am surprised that no one has come out and opposed it.

Does anyone have any answers or leads?

The story in Mumbai Mirror

http://www.mumbaimirror.com/net/mmpaper.aspx?page=article&sectid=15&contentid=200806112008061102124783531770627&pageno=1

Reminds me of stuff being done in Gulf to drive out immigrants by raising the cost of living, but then they guys who come to Bombay anyways will continue to live in Slums & Zhoppadpattis while the Middle Class will be automatically bhagaoed.

"Wall Street Meets 70mm"

CNBC-TV18 & Enlighten Film Society is showcasing four movies on the Stock Markets on 5th and 6^th June 2008.

 

5th June

7 pm - Wallstreet.

9.30 pm - Barbarians at the gate.

6th June

7 pm - Boiler Room.

9.20 pm - Rogue Trader.

 

The fuckall part is they are only being shown in Metro Adlabs, I’d suggest call up Seventymm or Clickflix or your local DVD wala and watch it at home in case you can’t make it to town.

 

Nevertheless it’s a nice attempt by these guys.

Here Comes Another Bubble v1.1 - The Richter Scales

Winner of the Webby Award for Viral Video!

Vijay Tendulkar - R.I.P

Vijay Tendulkar  one of India's best writer, playwright & overall very brave social activist died today.

I would say more than his writing it was his courage to stand up for justice without fear whether supporting  people against Bhai Thakur in Virar or standing in support of Mahanagar when attacked by Shiv Sena or  Standing with the displaced people of Narmada and many more such things... Something that his daughter Priya Tendulkar did in Rajni.

After PuLa Deshpande, this is one of greatest loss to Maharashtra.

Snapshots from National Park

Inspite of living in Borivli I went to National Park today after more than 10 Years, for Deepthi it was her first visit to the all Famous Sanjay Gandhi National Park.
There weren't too many animals just saw a few Deers, One leopard and many Monkeys... The Lion Safari was bit vague and the official jeep were missing, and our Rickshaw wasnt allowed to enter the Kanheri Caves Region : ( .

But the coolest thing was the Mini Train, the 15 min ride is fun, reminds you of your school picnics and the Peddle Boating, real paisa vasool stuff.
Both @ 15 bucks per person.

The park was clean, but many of the animals were missing so were the food stalls .. the only food available were the Kulfiwalas and the Cucumber vendors.

Maybe next time we can do a group picnic and carry all our food and housie tickets and some booze :)

Things I've not been doing...

My realisation that holidays just fly so fast and the things that we plan during weekdays but never implement on holidays...

Some of the things I've not been doing :-

• Scanning retro family pics
• Crossing over to Gorai beach over the ferry ride and eating Tadgolas.
• Swimming in my building pool.
• Playing cricket (seal) matches of 55 Bucks and MRI tennis balls
• Reading the books I've bought.
• Watching the movies I downloaded on my LAN
• Sending a 'hello' scrap to my Freinds on Orkut.

Hopefully I can Tick mark some of the them this weekend, till then its back to the usual grind.

I think we should have a collbrative weekend list on the lines of 43things and make the best of the holidays.

Another reason not to vote for BJP

Protests against IPL cheerleaders

These guys have just lost it, seeing opportunity and publicity they have decided to do ungli where its least required.

What happened to all the favorite issues Temple, Toyota Rath, Licking Jinnah. 123 nuclear bum.

Its politicians that need to be banned, specially during cricket and exams.

IPL rocks, Cheer Girls Rock, Cricket prevails over starved lusty politicians, specially ones who wear half pants and promote celibacy.

In 2009 elections its gonna be a choice between jurassic 82 year old vs 37 year old, I know where my vote is gonna go.

Microsoft Corp's Memo to it's Indian staff

Sorry for the language but this is how the exact memo was.....

Microsoft's Memo to its Indian Staff

This is a REAL MEMO from Microsoft HR Director in Redmond, WA to its
staff of Indian Origin. Every word here is kept intact without
alteration.

MEMO TO INDIAN STAFF

In view of the large number of Indians working in the USA, UK and many
other countries with White People, it has become important for Human
Resources Department to issue directives to their Indian staff.

TO ALL HINDI-SPEAKING STAFF

It has been brought to our attention by several officials visiting our
corporate headquarters that offensive language is commonly used by our
Hindi-speaking staff. Such behavior, in addition to violating our
policy, is highly unprofessional and offensive to both visitors and
colleagues.

Staff will IMMEDIATELY adhere to the following rules:

1. Words like CHUTIYA, GANDU and other such expressions will not be used
for emphasis, no matter how heated the discussion. You will not say
CHUTIYE, AKKAL NAHI HAI KYA TEREKO when someone makes a mistake, or
MADAR CHOD, BHENCHOD when a major mistake has been made. All forms
derived from the verb CHOD are inappropriate in our environment.

2. No project manager, section head or administrator, under any
circumstances, will be referred to as GADHA or CHUTIYA. Lack of
determination will not be referred to as KAAMCHOR SAALA and neither will
persons who lack initiative be referred to as BHOSADIKAA or MADARCHOD.

3. Unusual or creative ideas from your superiors are not to be referred
to as GAND FAADU, if a person is persistent, or if a task is heavy to
accomplish. In a similar way, do not use GAND FATI, if a colleague is
going through a difficult situation.

4. Furthermore, you must not say BHOSADE MEIN GAYA when matters become
complicated. When asking someone to leave you alone, you must not say

DIMAG KI MAA BHEN MAT KAR. Do not ever substitute 'May I help you?' with
BOL TERI GAND KAISE MARU?

5. When things get tough, an acceptable _expression such as 'We are
going through a difficult time' should be used, rather than MAA CHUDI
PADI HAI or GOTI MUH MEIN HAI..

6. No salary increase shall be ever referred to as KHAIRAAT BAATI JAA
RAHI HAI KYA. Under no circumstances should you call our elderly
corporate partners as BUDDHA KHOOSAT.

7. Last, but not least, after reading this memo, please do not say: YE
KAGAJ GAND PONCHNE KE LAAYAK BHI NAHI HAI.We hope you will keep these
directions in mind.

Sincerely,

Steve Rider

Human Resources, Director Microsoft Corporation

Liquid prices - Fuel for Thought : )

Got this deadly fwd from Sandy.

Over the weekend, I filled up my car's fuel tank, and I thought fuel
has become really expensive after the recent price hike. But then I
compared it with other common liquids and did some quick calculations,
and I felt a little better.

To know why, see the results below - you'll be surprised at how
outrageous some other prices
are !

Diesel (regular): Rs.! 36.08 pe r litre

Petrol (speed): Rs.52 per litre

Coca Cola 330 ml can : Rs.20 = Rs.61 per litre

Dettol antiseptic 100 ml Rs.20 = Rs.200 per litre

Radiator coolant 500 ml Rs.160 = Rs.320 per litre

Pantene conditioner 400 ml Rs.165 = Rs.413 per litre

Medicinal mouthwash like Listerine 100 ml Rs.45 = Rs. 450 per litre

Red Bull 150 ml can : Rs.75 = Rs.500 per litre

Corex cough syrup 100 ml Rs.57 = Rs. 570 per litre

Evian water 500 ml Rs. 330 = Rs. 660 per litre Rs. 660 for a litre of
WATER???!!! And the buyers don't even know the source (Evian spelled
backwards is naive.)

Kores whiteout 15 ml Rs. 15 = Rs. 1000 per litre

Cup of coffee at any decent business hotel 150 ml Rs. 175 = Rs. 1167 per litre

Old Spice after shave lotion 100 ml Rs. 175 = Rs. 1750 per litre

Pure almond oil 25 ml Rs. 68 = Rs. 2720 per litre

And this is the REAL KICKER... HP deskjet colour ink cartridge 21 ml
Rs.1900 = Rs. 90476 per litre!!!

Now you know why computer printers are so cheap ? So they have you
hooked for the ink !

So, the next time you're at the pump, don't curse our honorable
Petroleum minister - just be glad your car doesn't run on cough syrup,
after shave, coffee, or God forbid, printer ink !

Carpool Carpool.... What abt Rickpool?

For the last 10 days there have been infinites articles and placed articles Mumbai Mirror, Hindustan Times, DNA, Mid-Day etc on Car Pool, how much fun Carpooling is, Car Poolers are a happy lot etc etc .

Some paid stories : )
http://www.mid-day.com/web/guest/lifeatwork/lifeatwork/article?_EXT_5_articleId=1059487&_EXT_5_groupId=14

http://www.mid-day.com/web/guest/opinion/columns/article?_EXT_5_articleId=1032065&_EXT_5_groupId=14

Well, am not against Mykoolpool.com or carpool.com or the Promotion of these services but what bugs me is that these guys forgot one of the cheapest ideas of pooling… i.e Share-e-Rickshaw…. Not to be confused with Share-e-Punjab.

Rickshaws beat Cars hands down when it comes to VFM and convenience.
• Rickshaws run on CNG which is cheaper and cleaner than Petrol which most cards guzzle.
• Rickshaw have the latest jhankaar music, no car even with the best Kenwood or Bose speakers can beat.
• Rickshaws can go thru Shankar Gully but cars cant.
• You can park Rickshaw anywhere, You might go mad finding a parking place for your car.
• Rickshaws don’t get towed away.
• Cars have A/c… Rickshaws are Aircool.
• You can update yourself on the MNS v/s Bihari/UP war in the Rickshaw and ask questions like Rajdeep Sardesai.
• You are saving India’s FoRex Reserves.

On the flip side :
• Hijras can feel you at every signals
• BEST Buses & Trucks fart emissions in your face
• Every other Rickshaw passengers tries to ogle or try to catch a glimpse of every rickshaw passenger hoping it’s a maal female…
• Bad roads can hurt your balls and abs near Sakinaka, Chincoli Bandar, Powai
Having said that there still remains the cheapest way to travel in Bombay , Take the Railway pass or BEST Bus which promises unlimited travel for less than 500 per month. : )
Btw I travel by Bus, Shared- Rick, Local Train and occasional Car : )
