Live world cup match: Australia vs England

The arch rivals battle out for the 2nd one day international match of world cup 2015. As the tone set by New Zealand batters, the Aussie batters hammered England bowlers and piled up a massive score of 342 runs in front of 90K crowd in MCG. Although a  at-trick for Finn on the last three bowls of the match. But this will be a reality. This world-cup will be ruled by the batsman.

Story of an auto rikshaw driver

We have most often had trouble with auto drivers, but this story is a bit different. Shows the respect some auto drivers earn themselves. Here's our salute. I was for sure lucky today..  took an auto from koramangala to yemlur(my house), in between it started raining heavy. somehow i reached home safely and the driver u see in photo dropped me till the door  step so that i don't get drenched. I was so excited to see baby that i made the payment and left my iPhone 4 (Gifted by my hubby on my birthday) in the auto.. after almost 35 mins I thought of making a call to my parents and here i don't find my phone. my hubby Senthil Selvaraj called from his cell to trace the phone n luckily the auto driver had kept the phone safe with him which he received.. he was dropping someone to whitefield but he promised that he will return the phone after the drop.. imagine heavy rain and the driver was so kind and honest that he dint think of his comfort.. he was not carrying any phone

Don’t Be Anti-Social During Meals With Friends.

Introducing a new game called: “Don’t Be Anti-Social During Meals With Friends.” Everyone puts their phones in the middle of the table. Whoever cracks first by touching their phone, pays for the entire meal. The purpose of the game was to get everyone off their phones, away from twitter, facebook, texting, etc and to encourage conversations. Rules: 1) The game starts after everyone sits down. 2) Everybody places their phone in the middle of the table. 3) The first person to touch their phone loses the game. 4) Loser of the game pays the bill for everyone’s meal. 5) If the bill comes before anyone has touched their phone, everybody is declared a winner and pays for their own meal. We had a blast. Conversation rocked. Everyone loved it. Are You Game? Are you willing to turn the tide of anti-social behavior? What do you think?!?

Importance of marriage: live your life a big way

Your marriage is important because society thinks so. I’m a girl. I’m Indian. Hi. So, where do you think this blog post is heading towards? [Pssst.. quick hint: Doom.] If you’re an Indian girl above 21 with female body parts; I’m sure by now you have already heard this ‘cute’ question a million times, “When are you getting married?”. Aww. So seriously, when are you getting married, woman? Wear a saree, cook a tasty meal, and quickly answer to the society about an extremely personal decision of your life, because it is important to them. Even more important than it is to you. My Facebook page is no longer a place where you chat/interact with people, post witty status messages or share pictures of your cat. It is now a matrimonial site where Mark Zuckerberg unknowingly has become a ‘pundit’ who chants mantras in the form of relationship status updates. Now, in my Facebook friend list I obviously fall in the meager 20% bracket who is an unmarried 25-year-old girl *shudder* and who i

A Letter from a Working Mother to a Stay-At-Home Mother, and vice versa

Dear Stay-At-Home Mum Some people have been questioning what you do at home all day. I know what you do. I know because I’m a mum and for a while I did it too.  I know you do unpaid work, often thankless work, which starts the moment you wake up, and doesn’t even end when you go to sleep. I know you work weekends and nights, with no discernible end to your day or working week. I know the rewards are joyous but few. I know that you seldom have a hot cup of coffee or tea. I know that your attention is always divided, often diverted from a moment to moment basis, and you cannot ever count on completing a task in the one go. I know that you probably don’t get any down time when you’re on your own at home, unless you have a single child who still naps in the daytime. I know the challenges you deal with daily, usually with no peer support or backup. The toddler tantrums, the toilet training accidents, the food battles, the food on the floor, the crayons on the wall, the sibling rivalry,

One story of layoff's:

IBM's massive layoffs in India / Employees are breaking down inconsolably with the "inhuman" and "insensitive" treatment. IBM, International Business Machines, noted American computer manufacturer and software services firm, has started its massive layoffs in India by sacking its employees. The Big Blue (sobriquet of IBM) is apparently resorting to "Resource Action" (RA) and it is said to be deep  and numbers are vast. The U.S software company has already lay offed considerable number of its employees from Bangalore, Gurgaon, Hyderabad, Mumbai and Pune branches. It is learnt that the sacked employees are breaking down inconsolably with the "inhuman" and "insensitive" treatment of their management. Laptops are being confiscated from the axed employees. So, several employees are being spotted with tears filled eyes and leaving the company building along with their personal belongings. We hear that the IBM STG (System and Techno
