raped !!

Monday, September 25, 2006 |

i was googling today and came across this piece of news. and i am shocked to the core. male dominated society is one thing, but this time the limits have been crossed.

this news is about a 11 yr old girl in pakistan who is frequently being used by her father and her frnds, to have some "fun" with a young girl.her mom knows about it but she prefer to keep it to herself. frustated and wrecked, that girl runs away. police get hold of her, so poor girl tells them about those horrible incidents and her mom testifies it. but wat followed next, can only be happen in a land where morality is unheard of.

the law states, unless a girl can produce "4 male muslim witness" as a proof of being raped, she will be convicted for adultery. and harsh hudood laws make sure that extra marital affiars are dealt strictly. and ofcourse a woman's testimony carries no weightage, even if she is muslim.i dont know wat hurts me more : producing "4 male muslim witness" or idea of producing witness and not relying on DNA tests and all.

rape is a mental trauma that cant be described in words. but in pakistan trauma does not end after getting physically and mentally molested. you try to seek for justice and this time law makes a mockery of your appeal. you will be charged of getting indulged in a sexual extravagenza and raising a finger towards rapist, finally you end up in jail.

bravo !!

is thr anyone out thr to listen to all those poor gurls who are being used merely as sex toys, for which one dont even have to buy a ticket to get a ride. they talk about human rights. why the hell are they are not speaking on this matter. and this is just one case that came into highlight, but wat about million other girls. rape by father !!! no punishment will be enough for such a crime. cha !!

i rememebr seeing a video involving penectomy for a rapist in iraq. i guess anything less than that is not justice. for a crime as hideous as this one, capitol punishment is not enough. just chop of his source of so-called "manhood". may be it is strict and extremly inhuman, but i will stand for it. the punishment should be so hard that even thought should send shivers in the spines of every man trying to have some "fun".

fuck these laws and fuck you prez.

was just going thru this news.

so now they are making JEE a objective type paper. cool !! ministry of HRD is all set to degrade one of the best exam all over the world. and the reason they give it for this brainless move is that it will help reducing stress. roflmao !! JEE is all about the few guys who can take that stress. i dont want to sound like a bragget, but i have had it and i jhelofied it. and so did a lot of my frnds. if they can, i can, why cant anyone else.

wat is troubling me even more is the fact that every year they are virtually screwing up the level of the paper. the peak was achieved in 90's when the each paper just had 6-10 ques and all of them were directly summoned from geeky hell. that time they were looking more for the approach rather than the exact answer. but now attention is shifting from intelligence to speed. but then CAT is there for that. why compromising on JEE. let it be wat it is known for. let it be one of the toughest paper around.

and with quota system just about to be implimented, no wonder level will fall even more. with objective ques they will miss out the most important thing, that all guys at iit seem to have i.e. approach to solve a particular problem. its about that lateral thinking. its about rugged schedules, never ending nightouts, and conceptual brilliance. JEE was never tough for the one who is thorough with the concepts. ofcourse hardwork is the key for that. and after that, a lil bit of confidence and traces of luck will land u into iit.

but now, i dont know wat they are looking for.i just hope that this day never arrives when a company recruiting ppl ask one to put in the resume which year he/she cleared JEE. its already getting tougher to get schols in US univs these days. and thes stupid policies will be final nail in the coffin.

and all i can do is curse them and write this blog !! :(

being thin !!

|

recently in madrid fashion week, a russian model fainted on ramp and collapsed later. they say she was living on green leaves and diet coke for past few months. all in attempt to be a skinny, HOT model. and she paid for it dearly. models have to undergo enourmopus stress both mentally and physically before every ramp performance.and with event like MFW which is considered to be one of the most profilic one(comes only after paris, milan, ny ), schedules are obviously hectic, deadlines are stringent and expectations are higher. its not easy to cope up with all this pressure along with working for like 15 hrs a day on a meager diet.

so wat is it that a lot of girls compromise on diet to get a pencil slim body ?? is being fit is not in anymore ?? and who says being skinny is being sexy ??

i guess a fat ass like me will never understand.

return of the god !!

Thursday, September 14, 2006 |

title says it all. the god is back, and back with a bang. 142* on a pitch like that. not easy !!


that pitch was a bitch. (oh it rhymes !!, i'm genius). it has the most uneven bounce ever. reason being a few very rough pathces here and there, and a lot of grass stubbles. one can never predict where the ball will go, once it lands in those pathetic regions.while most of them kept low, a few of them were unpredictably bouncy. but besides those pathces, it was a decent pitch to play on. ball was coming nicely on bat, and it gives more chances to execute shots.


he was dropped a catch on 11. a terrible misunderstanding between keepr and 1st slip, and it cost them dearly. its not very often to see master playing a noticable knock againt windies, but last one was exceptional. we saw it all. that maturity that he has developed in recent times, that aggression that we thought he has lost, and the best of all those 6s. oh i know how much i missed them. its been eons since he has hit more than four 6s in a match. last time it was in '00, and before that in '98(the year which confirmed his GOD status, remember those sharjah miracles). even he could not have asked for a better comeback.


he played fast and furious for first 7-8 over, and ripped the balls apart of taylor and edwards. but somehow gayle and bradshaw were able to put a chk on him. but then in last slog overs, no one was able to withstand the whirlwind. he played all over the ground. played those lofted shots that he refrained after tht shoulder injury. he was looking calm, fit and deadly !! more lethal than ever. timing of shots, as usual was perfect. but shot selection was indeed entertaining. its always more fun to watch ball fly past boundary, than see it rolling.


lets talk about those fliers. first one came of a slower one, shortpitched delivery. he anticipated it and then came that amazing pull. Boom !! then for the next one i have to wait almost for 40 overs. but then he said, start rolling the counter. second one was absolutely amazing shot. overpitched ball, pitched outside off stump, which gave him enough room. he just swung his bat, had that amazing contact sound, and BOOM !! over the covers, the followthrough was the key. third one was the exact ^c ^v of the second one. same over.fourth one was more of a traditional shot. slower one, and full swing of bat, threw the ball out of mid-wicket boundary. then came the shot of the day. similar to 2nd and 3rd, just this time, the ball was not pitched up ahead and didnt give him much of a room either. but he charged in, came down the wicket, made some room for himself, trasferred full bodyweight. BOOM !!!! again over covers, it went miles.classic !!


oh wat an inning !! certainly one of the best innings ever. his 40th ODI century, gave him 51st man of the match. is someone still saying he shud retire ??

The Dilbert Contest

Thursday, September 07, 2006 |

A magazine recently ran a Dilbert Quotes contest. They were looking for people to submit quotes from their real-life Dilbert-comic-strip-type managers. These were voted the top quotes from the managers we work for in corporate America. Interesting read!!




"We know that communication is a problem, but the company is not going to discuss it with the employees."
(Switching supervisor, AT&T Long Lines Division)








My sister passed away and her funeral was scheduled for Monday. When I told my Boss, he said she died on purpose so that I would have to miss work on the busiest day of the year. He then asked if we could change her burial to Friday. He said, "That would be better for me."
(Shipping executive, FTD Florists)








Quote from the Boss: "Teamwork is a lot of people doing what I say."
(Marketing executive, Citrix Corporation)






"No one will believe you solved this problem in one day! We've been working on it for months. Now go act busy for a few weeks and I'll let you know when it's time to tell them."
(R&D supervisor, Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing/3M Corp.)





"Doing it right is no excuse for not meeting the schedule ."
(Plant Manager, Delco Corporation)











"This project is so important we can't let things that are more important interfere with it."
(Advertising/Marketing manager, United Parcel Service)










"E-mail is not to be used to pass on information or data. It should be used only for company business."
(Accounting manager, Electric Boat Company)








"What I need is an exact list of specific unknown problems we might encounter."
(Lykes Lines Shipping)





And the winner is :



"As of tomorrow, employees will only be able to access the building using individual security cards. Pictures will be taken next Wednesday, and employees will receive their cards in two weeks."
( Fred Dales,Microsoft Corp. in Redmond WA)

oh SHIT !!

|

this is how the word SHIT was invented. interesting read.

In the 16th and 17th centuries, before commercial fertilizer was invented,large shipments of manure were transported by ship. It was shipped in dry bundles because in dry form it weighed a lot less than when wet. But once water hit it at sea, it not only became heavier, but the process of fermentation began, a by- product of which is methane gas.

It didn't take long for methane to build up below decks and the first time someone came below at night with a lantern, BOOM! Several ships were destroyed in this manner before somebody figured out what was happening.

Once they determined the role that manure played in the explosions, everybody began stamping the bundles with the term "Ship High In Transit", so that the sailors would know to stow it high enough off the lower decks so that any water that came into the hold would not touch this volatile cargo and start the production of methane.

Thus evolved the term "S.H.I.T," which has come down through the centuries and is in use to this very day.

Purple Haze

Sunday, September 03, 2006 |

wodden floor, saffron lit ceiling, comfortable sofas, dark yet gloomy ambience, hiccup inducing cocktails, draught beer, mushy mocktails, 10000 W bose sound system and rock and roll. ladies and gentlemen, may i proudly present, the pub of the bangalore, Purple Haze.

a place 'to be' on weekends. had a treat thr yesterday. so even better. drink and eat all u want and it will be billed on someone else's plastic. its more fun that way. B was giving me treat and G was along with him.

i was suppose to reach thr by 7:30. but then life arnd me can never be normal. my roomies P and S had to go out somewhere for half an hour around 4 o'clock. i was taking a nap in afti so i asked them to lock the door from outside and warned them not to disturb me.

it was 7 o'clock and i was thrilled. was going to purple haze after a long long time.awesome !! i was all ready. mast tees, jeans aur a lot of deo :D. was going out to get an auto,just to find out that these two arses were still not home.they were somewhere 15 kms away from home. it cundnt have been a better spoiler. i was bugged, so called them and shouted my ass off.

but then i realized i had the keys. so 'another' brilliant idea flashed in my mind. i called up the water guy and asked him to get water can for us. though can at home was not even half empty, but then i cant think of any better thing. poor guy came and i asked him to unlock the door for me. and amazing i didnt even have cash to pay him. so i asked him to take money later, and didnt even gave him the old can. he sure wud be cursing me. aah but watever !! free as a bird.

then i got an auto and reached purple haze. *ok sherlock holmes, i had money enough to pay the auto guy* and then at gate, there was a big huge, even by my standards, bouncer to greet me. you never carry money on a treat. but cell was still there. called up B and ask him to deal with bouncer and his cover charges. and then he escorted me in.

fundoo ambience. and i was welcomed by 'tears in heaven'. ok this may be irrelevant, but this song was written by clapton in memory of his four and a half year son who fell down from his apartment on 53rd floor. now pay attenion to the lyrics, it will make whole lot more sense.

playlist was amazing..dont remember all the songs but here are the few i know and remember

Eric clapton : tears in heaven
U2 : where the streets have no name
Nirvana : come as you are
Alice in chains : man in the box
Godsmack : i stand alone
Whitesnake : still of the night
Pantera : primal concrete sledge
Rammstien : ich will
Nirvana : smells like teen spirit
Iron Maiden : bring your daughter to the slaughter
Dio : holy diver \m/
Metallica : one
Peral Jam : jeremy
Pink Floyd : echoes
AC/DC : highway to hell
Ozzy : shot in the dark
Judas Priest : a touch of evil
...and a lot more

3 hrs thr were awesome. and best was when dj turned the super bass on while playing 'one'. brilliant. the floor waas shaking..and every where one cud see people just banging thr head insanely. junta was bizzy gulping beer..and i was bizzy reducing the count of roosters on this planet :P

and B was going berserk. anyone will after 3 pitchers. and bastard spilled the whole lot of beer on my jeans..its still stinking :(..and i have no intensions to give it for laundry for quite some time.

now insanity. he came on the floor and started banging his head. body was going wild in tht freelance desi bhangra. it was beyond my understanding how can anyone dance like tht on some decently hard tracks. but those who know him, knows B is capable of doing it, and much more.

somehow managed to get him out of the pub. my god. it felt aweful. my ears were pratically numb and i can lit feel hammer banging on my head.a frndly adv, sudden change of ambience can invoke crazy suicidal thoughts in ur head. something similar happened to G then and he promised to give me a treat next week. for no reason. lucky me !! :D
