Elections & Dry Days
Haanji even i drink but not a regular drinker, so i am not bothered about these dry days which are implemented by our government because of gandhiji's death aniversary like every year & this time even due to elections. I am talking about mumbai since i am from mumbai not sure about rest of the india. I know it is not very simple for these bar owners and hotel owners since they will face a huge loss due to this five D-Days that starts from 26th Jan.(Republic Day, India), others includes Gandhiji's Death Aniversary, rest three days are one day prior to elections, second day on the election day itself & post election day.
In mumbai janta knows from where to get what they want even on the "DRY DAYS" so many people are just calm even though five days (120 Hours) are not short time but they are ready and totally relaxed because there are many parts across mumbai where booze is available no matter what is the situtaion. But the price is subject to change because it is black markeing after all. People who are really hard core drinker do not mind paying extra. Why are they slogging their assz throughout days and nights for what???
We here in mumbai never give damn about the restriction but we don't cross the bountries also most of the time people know how to have good time no matter what or what is the company or surrounding.
This is mumbai is blessed by god knows who becuase it has got this habbit of bouncing back no matter how bad they suffer.
God Bless Mumbai

waiting for the world to change!!
The Times Of India mumbai edition which i am reading from past some months. As i work nights and nights and just nights i do get time to read some articles and some more sports news but most of the times am too sleepy. The reading is my passion i read newspaper everyday and the day i do not read i am not done with my day. I have tried many newspaper infact not many, such as DNA, Hindustan Times, Mid-day and others i do not remember at the moment. I found hindustan times much better than DNA becasue i think DNA "Daily News & Analyse" has much more complicated vocabulary which is not at all suitable for my english language. The most articles are with words which are very difficult to digest atleast for me, offcourse and most of them goes above just like bouncers, so after reading for about 4 months i finally switched to Hindustan Times, for a change and also i wanted to read like i said as my passion and love towards newspaper and magazines.
This time i was not disappointed for sure. This newspaper is so informative and also with so many news which covers the range from daily news politics,bollywood, international news, hollywood, tv guide, medicines, school and college camps buzz movie revies, books and many more..OMG(ohh my god) i was so happy with all this. I directly booked a subscription for one year. I was totally flattered and my money was worth.
The one year eneded and still i was stuck with the hindustan times. After almost getting addicted my hindustan times i thought why i have not tried the most sellin newspaper in mumbai so far after switching to all this new publishing newspaper. I told my paperwalla madrasi anna he told me,"joa log time padte hai, wo sirf times padte hai", i told him boss you please get this newspaer for me also, he started from november 2006. Boy o' Boy i was totally stumped after reading some articles, their is on guy named kenneth lobo, he covers so much in this newspaper, i like the way he comes up with so many of innovative ideas almost every week.The times mumbai edition has section such as Bombay times which is covering page 3 gossips and happenings of party circuit from across the india as well as world. Education times which is really wonderful supplement from times. This section is my most favorite in the whole newspaper, it does not come everyday for sur e but whenever it comes i just love to read those write ups. Times property which comesonce in a week includes real estate scenario of mumbai and poona most of the times, so we can keep tab on our real estate if at all we have invested in it.In the year 2006 times came up with this new idea.
A series by TOI reporters on an unforgettable experience during their assingments in the year that has just ended. This is the really treat man, i juts love this special edition. There was an article on that series , it was about a bar dancers story. How she got into that profession & what happended when it was banned in mumbai? & other part of the country officially. The story was one of the most stunning story i have ever read in my life so far. It was heartwarming saga of a lady who was from mira road, later on she started as sex worker because she had her son and her husband was in very bad shape. He was suffering from some sort of illness which was almost out of control. She had to do all this just to keep her family intact. She did this work till her son got into college and she always had this fear in her mind, that her son should not know about her work. The story was with amazing climax, it was just like a very small article in the paper but was really touching story.
THE FACTFILE:
Playboy was the first and my only inspiratin when i just really started to look out for magazines and collecting those articles which i liked and still have some of those with me.

Most Powerful Women 2006
1. Indra Nooyi
CEO, PepsiCo (PEP) 2005 rank: 11Age: 50
Pepsi's brand-new chief (as of Oct. 1) is a powerful force behind the consumer giant's strong profit pipeline and $108 billion stock market valuation. Formerly CFO and president, the Indian-born strategist reached the top even though she never ran a line operation at Pepsi. Nooyi believes in constant reinvention: "The minute you've developed a new business model, it's extinct, because somebody is going to copy it."

2. Anne Mulcahy
Chairman and CEO, Xerox (XRX) 2005 rank: 2Age: 53
An emphasis on color copiers, digital presses, and systems that can copy, fax, print, and scan has helped the turnaround magician (aided by No. 27 Ursula Burns) continue to drive steady growth at the $15.7 billion company. Thanks to the iGen printer, which cost more than $1 billion to develop, Xerox is also a market leader in color commercial printing. In 2005 the company launched 49 new products.

3. Meg Whitman CEO and President , eBay (EBAY) 2005 rank: 1Age: 50
Whitman's task is to figure out how to put the shine back in one of the brightest stars of the Internet age (see story, page 158). Last year's acquisitions have failed to bring in big revenue, and U.S. traffic growth has slowed. That has translated into a slumping stock, down about 40% in the past year; market cap is now $37 billion. The Internet phone provider Skype won't bring in profits anytime soon—the service remains free until the end of the year. In July the company announced a $2 billion stock buyback, eBay's first.
4. Pat WoertzCEO and President, Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM) 2005 rank: 6Age: 53 Talk about a brief retirement. In March the 29-year Chevron veteran stepped down from running the $194 billion company's downstream division. By May she had stepped into the corner office at the $37 billion agribusiness giant. Woertz's energy expertise is expected to guide ADM's push in renewable fuels (see story, page 166). Her timing was impeccable: Riding a commodities boom, ADM stock has had a good run.
5. Irene Rosenfeld CEO, Kraft Foods (MO) 2005 rank: 27Age: 52 Taking the top job at Kraft was a homecoming for Rosenfeld, who spent 22 years at the company, then took a detour to PepsiCo to head the Frito-Lay unit. Now back at Kraft, the world's second-largest food company (2005 revenues: $34 billion), she is facing major challenges. Several years into its restructuring plan, Kraft's sales are sluggish. Rosenfeld's next move: preparing for the widely expected spinoff from parent company Altria.
6. Brenda Barnes Chairman and CEO, Sara Lee (SLE) 2005 rank: 3Age: 53 Barnes inherited a mish-mash of companies when she became CEO last year. So she began selling noncore businesses like Hanes apparel to focus on food. The divested units made up 40% of Sara Lee's revenues, which were $19.3 billion when Barnes took over and are expected to shrink to about $11.6 billion this year. The stock is still lagging, as Barnes has been forced to lower the company's long-term targets.
7. Andrea Jung Chairman and CEO, AVON Worldwide 2005 rank: 5Age: 48 Jung's turnaround plan for the $8 billion beauty company is on track to reach $200 million in annual savings. Key markets like the U.S., Canada, and Mexico are struggling. Russia is doing well, though, and so is China, where Avon has shifted from department stores to direct sales.
8. Oprah Winfrey Chairman, Harpo Inc. 2005 rank: 4Age: 52 Move over, Howard Stern. Oprah took to the radio waves in September with the launch of Oprah & Friends, an XM Satellite Radio network. In January her $40 million Leadership Academy for Girls will open in South Africa.
9. Sallie Krawcheck CFO, Head of Strategy, Citigroup (C) 2005 rank: 7Age: 41 Krawcheck and CEO Chuck Prince have spearheaded major changes at the financial services giant (market cap: $247 billion), including the sale of the asset-management and life insurance and annuity businesses. But with rising interest rates and a weaker housing market, Citigroup has been missing its earnings targets.
10. Susan Arnold Vice Chair, Beauty and Health, Procter & Gamble (PG) 2005 rank: 17Age: 52 In April the P&G lifer added the personal health, oral care, and pharmaceutical businesses to her beauty portfolio. At $29 billion in sales, her divisions bring in 42% of P&G's revenues. Down the line, she's a contender for an even bigger job: CEO.

Last Night at office..Goodbye 2006
This is the last day of this year 2006 at our office here in Aircheck. Was just chatting with simone on IM AND NOW just chillin with comfortably numb by pink floyd. Mom has promise to give me 50k when i go abroad but i think i should not take it, coz i feel mom needs it, but i can do onething i can take those money along when i go and use as per my requirement and spend it very miserly. Becasue am going their to earn and to look for a better job for me. I least now i have clinton out there so this place is not very new to me and as we all know how babuji aka clinton likes to visit places no matter what are the restrictions on that region. I miss em at times but am happy he is doing well and shall get married next year with niki, probably last week of the december 2007. Maybe he is not that old to get married but he is not too young as well so i think it is ok.
Even i shall get married after 4 years from now, depends on my career and financial posseion. i AM not in a huyyy to get married so far. Freddie got married and tomorrow robbin is getting married. Even savio and dianna are getting engagaed on Jan 2007. So i think all are finnaly almost settled in life.
This is the time to say fianl goodbye to 2006, was really fantastic with mix experience.
(Checkout Elvis,kow and me.)

I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus - Jimmy Boyd
This is one of the best song i have come across this christmas. I have ever heard a lot of song in my life so far. but
When heard this for the first time on the internet i was really shocked. This is a very old song about christmas. The information which i came across say it is sung by Jimmy Boyd form the album Ultimate Christmas 1953. Which was UK's Number 3 during those days.
Jackson 5 did a version of this.; i love this song! its my all-time favorite christmas song! CD titled The Best of Jimmy Boyd and it has all of his major hits on it. The liner notes state that I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Clause was recorded on 7/15/52. I'd just like to know what happened to Jimmy Boyd??????????
The Lyrics goes like this.....
Wow! mommys kissing santa claus!
I saw mommy kissing santa claus
Underneath the mistletoe last night
She didnt see me creep
Down the stairs to have a peep
She thought that I was tucked up
In my bedroom, fast asleep
Then I saw mommy tickle santa claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing santa claus last night
He saw mommy kissing santa claus
I did! I really did see mommy kissing santa claus
And Im gonna tell my dad
Then I saw mommy tickle santa claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing santa claus last night
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If daddy had only seen
Mommy kissing santa claus last night
I did! I did! I really did see mommy kissing santa claus
You gotta believe me! you just gotta believe me!
Come on, fellas, believe me! you just gotta believe me!
This song is very cute( :

New launch the high-def YouTube
Flush with cash from a $12 million second round of funding from Redpoint Ventures and BV Capital, Azureus launched a video sharing service named Zudeo in Beta today. The new service will allow users to upload videos of any size and quality, there will be no limit on file size.
Azureus is an open-source, file-sharing client based on BitTorrent technology, and it appears to be going head-to-head with BitTorrent, to an extent, in the video-on-demand sector. Last week, BitTorrent announced several new deals with studios, a $20 million round of funding and the rumor mill began swirling around the imminent exodus of its creator Bram Cohen (Cohen denies the rumors in an interview with Wired today.)
Azureus appears to be positioning Zudeo to be more of a YouTube service than an iTunes, with revenue coming from promotional videos from mainstream content providers, and high-def videos from users. The company is planning on rolling out an embedded player, to make the service viral. This was a key to YouTube's success.
If it's the community that makes Web 2.0 sites successful, Azureus is off to a good start. According to the company its client has been downloaded 130 million times and it claims 15 million unique users. There's always the issue of the type of files Azureus is currently used to share, namely, copyrighted software, movies, television shows and music. But the 20 deals the company is claiming to have in the works with content providers could provide it with some if the RIAA and/or MPAA come knocking. BitTorrent should take note of the fact that Azureus actually has a Beta of its new service up and running while the company bearing the technology's name as its moniker has yet to fulfill any of the promise even though it's raised almost $30 million in funding and announced several deals with content providers. — Brian Ward

‘Jaddu ki jhappi’ to be part of school syllabus
New Delhi: The jaddu ki jhappi made famous by Sanjay ‘Munnabhai’ Dutt in the movie Munnabhai MBBS will soon be part of Delhi students’ school curriculum. The board will introduce a daily hug to the curriculum to counter the rising youth suicide rate.
The Delhi state education board has made it mandatory for students attending 600 government schools to begin their day with a “jaadu ki jhappi”, an embrace, to ward off stress.
School children aged between 9 and 18 will soon have to give each other and their teacher an affectionate hug at the morning assembly, but of course only to the same gender.
An estimated 4,000 students commit suicide in India each year because of exam failure or fear of failure in a society where there is intense pressure to succeed academically. The idea has already been given successful trials in some schools in the capital and will now be introduced to the rest of the state.

Munnabhai Praying For What?
I was watching news on monday on ndtv, where they were showing mr. sanjay sunil dutt was praying at one of the temple in mumbai. The day before the final call from high court on the 1993 blast case and on the cases where he was accused because he had some machine guns, rods in his house. Now my concern is why would someone who thinks has not done anything wrong, and still goes to the god and asks for the mighty god's blessing & help in the misery created by himself only(sanjay himself). I guess maybe he knows the court & justice secnario in india as well across the world. Sanjay Dutt was convicted of arms possession but cleared of charges of terrorism in relation to the blasts. Dutt's offense could result in a three-year sentence but the popular action hero has already spent nearly 18 months in prison during the investigation. The verdict comes at a time when the actor is riding a wave of success after a recent film turned out to be a huge hit.
If you are in middle of bad times so one has to suffer no matter how truthful or sinful your act is. Many people was supporting sanju on his act. See i and you do not know what was the actual picture of the blames which are on sanjay dutt but one can always understand you have to suffer or face the consequences on long term or short term becasue of your act throughout your life & till the end of your life.
