Guilty Pleasures

I was wondering if I shd write this or not but I am sure all of you have been thro' a similar situations and may be this will inspire you all to write something too.

Ravi Shastri :-)

I was very proud of him. After we won the Benson and Hedges trophy and I was not even 10, I was already liking a cool dude with a hot car! Pretty soon, my pleasure turned to gulit and all my cousins, friends started making fun of me. I was still not ready to change my loyalties to more reliable Vengsarkar or Gavaskar or even Shrikant and shastri's performance was getting worse by the day. I would then, publically make fun of him and really feel guilty abt it later on! Sachin's entry into the team made way for a new cricket idol but I pretty much never stopped liking shastri. Even today, I listen to every word he says. :-)

Govinda, Will Ferrell, Austin Powers

I couldn't believe that I was watcing 'aankhe' and actually liking it. Was I supposed to laugh at the silly jokes? or the double meaning one liners? But it was pretty much love at first sight. I then watched all of Govind's movies. Simply loved the music. Where do u see such gr8 works like, "mai saayakal se jaa rahaa tha, une moTar se aa rahii thii".. now I am much better off ignoring his movies but I have replaced him with Will Ferrell. Simply loved him in 'Anchorman'... can hardly wait for the sequal. There was a 'best of Will Ferrell' on E! where they showed some of his best SNL works and I even watched the reruns!!!

Liking Austin Powers was not that easy. He was funny and creative (?) alright, but he often crossed the limits for me. I have to thank for Grad school room mate far making me find the 'art'(!) in austin powers. By the time 'Goldmember' was released, I was in line for the first show along with my room mate!!!

Beyoance, Black eyed peas, outkast, speakerboxx, etc....

These ppl don't make gr8 music by any standard (my own standard really... as they have won Grammys), but I just love the 'naughty girl' or 'the way you more' or 'redneck woman' ... I simply love 50 cent's 'we gonaa party like its ur birthday' and I thank god that I have the 'clean' version.

I can really go on on abt things I like but feel bad about it, but there is this one last thing... :-)

ihtgauja

The day this becomes more of a guilt and less of a pleasure, I will be out of here. :-) I know that some of u are already waiting for that day!! ~D ;-)

Sizzle, Yes, but Beef, Too
By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN

Published: April 22, 2005

ew York Times columnists are not allowed to endorse U.S. presidential candidates. Only the editorial page does that. But in checking the columnist rule book, I couldn't find any ban on endorsing a candidate for prime minister of Britain. So I'm officially rooting for Tony Blair.

I've never met Mr. Blair. But reading the British press, it strikes me that he's not much loved by Fleet Street. He's not much loved by the left wing of his own Labor Party either, and he certainly doesn't have any supporters on the Conservative benches. Yet he seems to be heading for re-election to a third term on May 5.

Indeed, I believe that history will rank Mr. Blair as one of the most important British prime ministers ever - both for what he has accomplished at home and for what he has dared to do abroad. There is much the U.S. Democratic Party could learn from Mr. Blair.

First, you don't have to be a conservative to be a conviction politician. For years Mr. Blair was derided by the press as "Tony Blur" - a man of no fixed principles, all sizzle and no beef, who dressed up the Labor Party as "New Labor," like putting lipstick on a pig, but never really made the hard choices or changes. The reality is quite different.

In deciding to throw in Britain's lot with President Bush on the Iraq war, Mr. Blair not only defied the overwhelming antiwar sentiment of his own party, but public opinion in Britain generally. "Blair risked complete self-immolation on a principle," noted Will Marshall, president of the Progressive Policy Institute, a pro-Democratic U.S. think tank.

Remember, in the darkest hours of the Iraq drama, when things were looking disastrous (and there have been many such hours), Mr. Bush could always count on the embrace of his own party and the U.S. conservative media machine and think tanks.

Tony Blair, by contrast, dined alone. He had no real support group to fall back on. I'm not even sure his wife supported him on the Iraq war. (I know the feeling!) Nevertheless, Mr. Blair took a principled position to depose Saddam and keep Britain tightly aligned with America. He did so, among other reasons, because he believed that the advance of freedom and the defeat of fascism - whether Islamo-fascism or Nazi fascism - were quintessential and indispensable "liberal" foreign policy goals.

The other very real thing Mr. Blair has done is to get the Labor Party in Britain to firmly embrace the free market and globalization - sometimes kicking and screaming. He has reconfigured Labor politics around a set of policies designed to get the most out of globalization and privatization for British workers, while cushioning the harshest side effects, rather than trying to hold onto bankrupt Socialist ideas or wallowing in the knee-jerk antiglobalism of the reactionary left.

The strong British economy that Mr. Blair and his deft finance minister, Gordon Brown, have engineered has led to spending on health and education - as well as on transportation and law and order - that has increased "much faster than under the Conservatives," The Financial Times noted on Wednesday. "The result has been numerous new and refurbished schools, dozens of new hospitals, tens of thousands of extra staff and much new equipment."

And these improvements, which still have a way to go, have all been accomplished so far with few tax increases. The vibrant British economy and welfare-to-work programs have, in turn, resulted in the lowest unemployment in Britain in 30 years. This has led to higher tax receipts and helped the government pay down its national debt. This, in turn, has saved money on both interest and welfare benefits - money that has been plowed back into services, The Financial Times explained.

In sum, Tony Blair has redefined British liberalism. He has made liberalism about embracing, managing and cushioning globalization, about embracing and expanding freedom - through muscular diplomacy where possible and force where necessary - and about embracing fiscal discipline.

Along the way, he has deftly eviscerated the Conservatives, leaving them with only their most fringe policies - another reason American Democrats could learn a lot from him. Their own ambivalence toward globalization and the new New Deal our country needs to make more Americans educated and employable in a world without walls, and their own ambivalence toward muscular diplomacy, cost Democrats just enough votes in the American center to allow a mistake-prone Bush team to squeak by in 2004. So if Mr. Blair does win in the U.K., I sure hope that Democrats in the U.S. are taking notes.

I must thank lalu for giving me some brain food early monday morning. The blues, pretty much make thinking impossible. :-). If I were to think about the first article she gave, in terms of India, I have to say that most of it is not valid there. Ofcourse, depends, where you are standing and which way you are looking. Just talking in terms of % and ignoring all the class distinctions, We indians, still believe in the system of marriage. We don't have childern outside of wedlock, the division of labour is still the same as it was centuries ago (may be harder for woman now) and we still regulate sexual activites within marriage. Looks like nothing has changed. The only dynamic society in our country, I believe would be the urban upper middle class where educated woman (and men) are waiting longer to get married and have kids and are not afraid to get out of marriage if its not 'fulfilling'.

So why is it that the system is still working in India and not in the countries the writer has mentioned? The answer, again in my own openion, is in the article itself. The writer talks about how marraige is 'now' expected to give love, fulfillment, intimacy and fadility, etc. In India, we never based our marraiges on these things. It is more like a well oiled machine that works for everybody's benefit. Marriage in India is not 'designed' to provide love but security. Its about mutual co-existance. No doubt that the system has given undue advantage to men at times but we need not forget that the woman are protected in any event. The strong family structure always comes to the her rescue if anything goes wrong. Families, again generated and tied together due to 'marriage'.

The writer writes about how the marraiage will never be 're-establised' again the way it was and if this ever happes in India, there would be a cry for reestablishing it there also, just like its happening now for women's dressing. To this, I would say, go with the flow coz, due to fast paced and challenging life, many peoples lives will simly not include 'marriage' as a choice.

Tony Blair has won his longed-for third election victory and secured his place in history.

But the prime minister must know that, for the first time, it was despite, rather than because of him.

I can not help but listen to what Thomas Friedman has to say every once in a while. In his
latest article published on May 6, he talks about how teachers are not interested in teaching and students are not challenged enough. He is amazed by the number of people getting their news from Jon Stewart (and I am a fan) of comedy central. Tom talks about taking courses from a good teacher... he says its important to 'learn to learn'.

I, now get nightmeres about my children (who are not even born yet :-)) going to the american public school some day and not have the passion for learning that I had one day. I would hate summer vacations as there was no school. patte and ambe were not exciting enough. ofcourse, there was enough time to catch up on reading, but the excitement of solving a new math problem everyday was gone. I wonder if our kids will really feel the same. In grad school, the professors were always interested in their own research than the subject they were teaching. It was just like going thro' the motions and get over it. Students, too were more interested in grades not really understanding what they are missing by 'not learning'. I was once talking to Bala, a friend and co-worker about his achievements and how proud he must be .. he said that other than my father, he was never excited by anybody about learning. So it is really upto us, to inspire our kids about learning. We have to teach them to 'learn to learn'... as its futile to expect it from the schools.

Who wants to talk to Ann Coulter anyways?

I consider myself a liberal flag barer on HG along with lalu and I invite her to write something about this Coulter gal.

She is, what my beloved Bridget Jones would call her, an American stick insect and I was glad that I was ignorant of her existence... she appears on CNN but obviously a regular on Fox, a channel banned in my household. Just like I can flood this BB with my posts about liking Thomas Friedman, I can now, flood it with disliking Ann Coulter. Her appearance on the Tonight show on Tuesday triggered my curiosity about her and decided to visit her website. It can surely be the most popular anti-liberal propaganda web-site. It only showed me how insecure she is about the republican philosophy.

Her new book, ‘How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must): The World According to Ann Coulter’ is the latest addition to a ton of anti-liberal material already on her website. I was wondering if I should go and get it from the library but read the review on amazon and decided against it. I hear enough one-liners against liberals anyways. I will, thus ignore her forever and go on with my life like she doesn’t exist.

City of Lights

I love New York. The culture, the crowd, the food, the air, the rivers... you name it, I love it. This time, as I took my father along, we decided to take the Grey Line tour (I would highly recommend) and we could visit a lot of places in a short time. As I was clicking away to glory, I had no idea what I was clicking and why. Sitting at home, I was looking at the pictures and made a great discovery (ya, right!) that New York (and I only mean Manhatten by that) has very beautiful and different street lights on most of its streets. To support my claim, here are a few cropped images...



Now I wonder, why the different designs? who designed them? whats the inspiration? when were they installed? Must find out more. All in all, another excuse to visit NY, NY.

Chalo Wimbledon!!

Before I write anything further, let me got into DJ mode and tell you all how gorgeous Federer's hair is. It has a natural wave and highlight.. OMG, I don't know why he was hiding them into a ponytail!!

So ok, Nadal out played him in the semis. I can see how frustrating playing Nadal can be. I heard myself saying 'how can he get there? how can he do that? I can not believe he was there..' over and over like a million times. Federer did improvise his game for the clay and was really on top of things in the second set but he couldn’t keep the rhythm going and made too many unforced (I am not sure if they were unforced) errors to loose.

The final was a delight to watch. The first set lasted for 1 hr and 10 mins (almost) and every point was hard fought. I almost felt guilty for not supporting a new, young champion. I almost had tears in my eyes when Pureta didn't win the 10th game in the 4th set. I knew that was it for him.

I don't know how much Nadal can do outside of clay. There is much more to tennis than returning every ball and hey, you can not slide on grass. But he did play very well and I salute the energy and enthusiasm in him.

A stepwise guide to get away with crimes :

1. Become famous (or infamous).
2. Make sure that you have papparazzi following you for some time to confirm your celebrity status.
3. move to california.
4. You may even consider changing your skin color at this point.
5. Attach yourself to some sort of charity or cause so people have a good image of you in mind.
6. make celebrity friends by throwing parties or buying a ranch.
7. Now, you are ready to commit any crime you like.
8. if you get caught, or sued, hire a famous lawer.
9. Make sure there is plenty of media coverage.
10. Nobody will ever find you guilty for anything.

so whats more exciting than a intelligent, good looking man trapped in a dangerous situation and working his way out of it? The Man played by Redford :-) .

I watched 'Three days of the Condor' yesterday. I had gone to picke up 'All the presidents men' that a dear friend reminded me to watch after the 'Deep Throat' revealing but alas, there is suddenly a long wait for it.

The movie starts casually on a rainy day in NY where our (more like my) dear Redford works for CIA as a reader and everybody in his office gets killed when he is 'out to lunch'. The plot unfolds into a complex turn of events where there is betryal and passion. The movie has an open ended ending which i just loved.

The plot is universal and timeless. It can be applied to any organization.
³kÜNa mhNatya roÊ [qao pNa kaÆ´ Its about double standards and greed and fear. There are powerful performances in the movie but screenplay and direction take the cake in my openion. The movie is full of gr8 mesmerizing dialogues. Redford simply looks... well, amazing. There is one perticular dialogue in the movie where Faye Dunaway says to him,'I would like to have those eyes around'. :-) Superb.

A MUST SEE.

Houston, we have a problem.
Love means never having to say you're sorry.
The stuff that dreams are made of.
They call me Mister Tibbs!
Made it, Ma! Top of the world!
There's no place like home.
Show me the money!
You can't handle the truth!
After all, tomorrow is another day!
Today, I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth.
I see dead people.
Well, nobody's perfect.
You've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya, punk?
You had me at "hello."

Thanks so much for supporting the group and voting on both the polls. I see that 9 ppl have not voted on the hindi dialogue poll. The voting is anonymous now so don't be shy. :-) Today is the last day for Wimbledon poll.

चोखंदळ ग्राहक
महाराष्ट्र धर्म वाढवावा
व्यक्तिपासून वल्लीपर्यंत
पांढर्‍यावरचे काळे
गावातल्या गावात
तंत्रलेल्या मंत्रबनात
आरोह अवरोह
शुभंकरोती कल्याणम्
विखुरलेले मोती
