Types of Love

Love, the word has got so many meaning,understanding and thoughts. But what love is can be judged by a few. What is true love is even more hard to understand and infer.
Mostly Love is always taken as between two person either ur girlfriend or ur wife and most funny of all The Love at first sight. But Love is still more diverse, Complicated and unbounding. True love is really a mixture of Sympathy,care, belief,forgiveness and power to bear the pain.
Its really tough to find a true love, but still life goes on, whether we loves some on or just showing an impression that we love.
The true love is something which in unending and passionate. The love of a mother for her baby, love for ur family and moreover love towards yourself are some unending love existing in the world. But still many say everyday "I Love You".
In the same comic sense of everyday love, check out these pic:

Bandra Worli Sea bridge:8 lane, "Mumbai's Landmark"


Mumbai will get a new landmark with the completion of the work on the 5.8 km long Bandra-Worli Sea Link project.

The project is a 8-lane, cable-stayed bridge with pre-stressed concrete viaduct approaches, which will link Bandra and the western suburbs of Mumbai with Worli and central Mumbai. The Rs 1306 crore project of Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) is being executed by Hindustan Construction Company (HCC) and is likely to be completed by January 2009. The Maharashtra government has announced the extension of the sea link by another 3.6 km up to Haji Ali at an additional cost of Rs 1,200 crore.


Far-reaching impact

Bandra-Worli Sea Link Project has the potential to bring about permanent and far-reaching changes in the travel patterns of the area. The link will provide a fast moving outlet from South Mumbai to the suburbs in the west. This link will also help in reducing the present congestion on the Mahim Causeway (which is the only link available at present between western suburbs and south Mumbai) and Western Express Highway .

Better connectivity

Better connectivity

The sealink is the first phase of the Western FreeWay Sealink proposed to be built to improve the connectivity between the island city of Mumbai and its western suburbs. This link will be followed by a link from Worli to Nariman Point with dispersal to Cuffe Parade. The Sealink will also be supported by a series of flyovers, rail link, roadways and other public facilities.

Challenging task


Challenging task

The project envisages construction of 8 lane Sea link freeway from the interchange of Mahim intersection at the Bandra end to Worli Sea face on Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan Road . The Construction of the sea link project is divided into four packages namely Package I,Package II, Package III and Package IV. The Package IV executed by HCC forms the main and the most technically challenging construction package of this project.

Salient features


Salient features

Bandra-Worli Sea Link project has 9 approach bridge modules and two cable stayed bridges. Each approach bridge module comprises two independent carriageways. The deck of the carriageways consists of triple cell precast box girders supported on piers founded on independent substructure. The cable stayed main bridge has two similar precast triple cell boxes.

New-age building technology


New-age building technology

The Bandra Worli Sealink is the first of its kind in a number of ways. A number of unique equipment are being used in this project. The unique distinguishing feature of this project is deployment of Asian Hercules, one of the biggest floating sheerleg cranes in the world, for shifting of 1200 MT Launching Girders in sea and specially manufactured equipment for erection of cable stay bridge segments.

1.40 lakh cars a day


1.40 lakh cars a day

The eight-lane flyover will have capacity of carrying about 1.40 lakh cars per day. Large multi-axel vehicles and two-wheelers would not be allowed on the sea link. Speed limit would have to be maintained at 100 km/hr. As the project is being implemented on BOT basis, there would be a minimum toll of Rs 30 per vehicle.

Did You Know?

Length of the steel wires used is equal to the circumference of the earth.Weight of the Sealink Bridge is equivalent to the weight of 50,000 African elephantsHeight of the cable-stay towers equals that of a 43 storied building and the length of the Sealink Bridge is 63 times the height of the Qutub Minar.

Many `firsts' to its credit

Many `firsts' to its credit

The Bandra Worly sea link project has certain unique features. These include:--An 8-lane bridge with 2 lanes dedicated for buses.--Unique bridge design for the Link Bridge to emerge as a land mark structure in the city.--Single tower supported 500 metre long cable-stayed bridge at Bandra Channel and twin tower supported 350 m cable-stayed bridge at Worli Channel for each carriageway.--Modern toll plaza of 16 lanes with automated toll collection system.--An intelligent bridge with state-of-art systems for traffic monitoring, surveillance, information and guidance, instrumentation, emergency support, etc.--Development of promenade and landscaping to enhance the environment.

Stress-free driving

Stress-free driving

Several benefits will accrue from the project. They include:--Estimated savings in Vehicle Operating Costs (VOC): Rs. 100 Crores per annum.--Considerable savings in travel time (20 to 30 minutes) due to increased speed and reduced delays (23 signals avoided)--Stress-free driving.--Reduced accidents.--Reduction in traffic on existing roads because of traffic diversion to the Sea Link. --Reduction in Carbon Monoxide and Nitrogen Oxide Levels in Mahim, Dadar, Prabhadevi and Worli along existing roads.--Reduced noise pollution in Mahim, Dadar, Prabhadevi and Worli along existing roads.--No adverse effect on fisheries, marine life and livelihood of fisherman.--Landscaping along the approaches and waterfront promenade will enhance the environment and add green spots to the city.

Another feather on HCC cap

HCC has been executing some of the most exciting and challenging projectsin Indian history. The major engineering landmarks include the world’s longest barrage at Farakka in West Bengal, India’s first underground metro at Kolkata and the second one in New Delhi, the Mumbai-Pune Expressway–India’s first six-lane expressway-the unique double curvature arch dam at Idukki in Kerala and one of Asia’s largest breakwaters at Ennore Port in Tamil Nadu. One ambitious project under way is the Nimoo Bazgo Hydroelectric Project in Leh Ladakh at an altitude of 11,000 feet in Jammu and Kashmir .

Symbol of democracy: Parliament Defiled.

What happened today in the LOK SABHA is something which demystify the
real face of our white collared MP. This was a true political gimmick
which maligned the history of parliament. Whosoever responsible for
this open nude dance of money really showed our MP's status and their
respect for the decorum and honour of parliament. I'm really horrified
by this act.

Tips to Improve Fuel Economy

Here are some very good tips on improving your vehicle's Fuel Economy/ Increase Fuel Efficiency / Mileage. With increasing fuel prices it is becoming more and more prudent to use them.

Use your gears wisely.
Driving in the highest gear possible without laboring the engine is a fuel-efficient way of driving. A vehicle traveling at 60kmph in third gear uses 25 percent more fuel than at the same speed in fifth gear

Drive smoothly
Think ahead! By applying light throttle and avoiding heavy braking, you can reduce both fuel consumption and wear and tear. Try to predict traffic at junctions and when in queuing to avoid accelerating and then braking. Research suggests driving techniques can influence car fuel efficiency by as much as 30 percent.

Switch off your engine
There are two schools of thought on this one. Switching your engine off for short periods of time can actually increase fuel consumption, as it requires more fuel to get the engine started. Also your catalytic converter will no longer be running at full temperature and so your car will be less efficient, increasing the amount of pollution you cause. However if you are stopped for more than a few minutes then your car will simply burn less fuel with the engine stopped.

Drive off promptly to prevent wasting fuel
Don't leave your engine running when you first start up. Drive off straight rive gently until the engine has reached its normal operating temperature. This doesn't increase fuel efficiency as such, but it does mean your engine is switched on for less time.

Lighten your load
Think carefully about what you need on a journey. if you do not need something, do not pack it. Remove roof racks if not needed. The lighter the load, the lower the fuel consumption, and emissions, and the higher the fuel efficiency.

Tyres effect fuel efficiency
It is estimated that about 50% of tyres on the road are under inflated. Aside from increasing the rate of wear, this wastes fuel and decreased your fuel efficiency. Check your tyre pressures every fortnight. Worn tyres will also decrease fuel efficiency (and your safety!), so check the tread regularly. If you are replacing tyres then consider some of the newer 'Eco' tyres that are designed specifically to increase fuel efficiency.

Car Windows
Driving with your windows open drastically reduces your fuel efficiency, far more so than putting the air conditioning on when motorway driving. So in those hot summers(?) preferably keep the windows shut, and the air conditioning on if you want to keep cool. Of course the air conditioning decreases fuel efficiency too, so try not to over use it.

Invest in a new fuel efficient car
New cars come in all shapes and sizes, but it is possible to pick a new car that can greatly reduce your fuel bill, and your fuel emissions.

Size matters. Choose an economical car - small cars use far more fuel efficient and produce lower emissions than large cars.

Drive the most fuel-efficient car that meets your needs. Compare models and classes. Even similarly sized cars can vary in fuel efficiency by up to 45%.

Consider diesel engines (with a particulate trap), and LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) and CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) fuelled cars - all have lower CO2 emissions than standard petrol cars.

Consider 'hybrid' vehicles - they combine a conventional engine with an electric motor and battery. These offer reduced fuel consumption and CO2 with potentially lower emissions of all pollutants.

Diesel Engines
If your going to buy a diesel, ensure it is a new 'common rail' type, as these are approximately 10% more efficient than older diesels. also replace (or clean if applicable) air cleaner elements as often as is required by your vehicles servicing schedule.

Regluar Maintenance maintains fuel efficiency

Air Filter:
One of the most common reasons for a drop in fuel efficiency is a dirty intake filter. This will decrease the amount of air entering the cylinders of the engine resulting in incomplete combustion. Check the filter regularly to ensure that it is clean.

Spark Plugs
Ensure your spark plugs are in good condition. Renew the plugs and wires at intervals specified by the owners manual. This will keep all cylinders firing properly resulting in higher efficiency.

Lube Oil:
Change the lube oil at intervals specified by the owners manual. Use the recommended oil only especially in newer cars. Use of an engine flush before changing the oil will help to get rid of a lot of the dirt that collects in the engine that a normal oil change will not remove. On older engines it is advisable to use an oil treatment agent. This basically thickens the oil which creates a better seal between the piston and the liner, preventing blow past and consequent loss of combustion pressure, resulting in higher fuel efficiency.

Exhausts alter fuel efficiency
Most cars have special sizes for the exhaust. When cars are reasonably old the silences has to be changed. The garage people always try to fit a size that they have in the garage it self. Which might not be the exact size recommended for the car. The wrong size a bigger or smaller silencer size effects on the MPG of the car and the HP of the car. It may be cheaper to put another size than your recommended size for your car but on the long run it will cost you in many ways, especially on fuel consumption. Always put the recommended size of the exhaust that is indicated in your car manual because the car company knows how to optimize the performance of your car.


Here are a few more tips:
1. Drive When You Crank Up
2. Don't Ride the Break
3. Turn Off Your Car If you are going to be stopping for more than 10 minutes
4. Don't Turn Off Your Car If you are only stopping for a brief moment
or less than 5 minutes
5. Inflate Tires Properly

From an audio release, about the Life and Works of Swami Vivekananda. Though it is not the actual voice of Vivekananda, we can feel the power of his thoughts on Hinduism, and his respect for other religions.



When I Asked God for Happiness


He Showed Me Some Unhappy People



When I Asked God for Wealth


He Showed Me How to Work Hard



When I Asked God for Favors


He Showed Me opportunities to Work Hard



When I Asked God for Peace


He Showed Me How to Help Others



God Gave Me Nothing I Wanted

He Gave Me Everything I Needed

- Swami Vivekananda

Soon, India to London by rail

A 23-Day Trans-Asia Train Trip From Dhaka To UK Via India

In what would be perhaps the world's greatest railway journey, a new rail link, to be opened later this year, will enable one to undertake a 23-day journey by train from London to Dhaka via New Delhi .

The Trans-Asia railway network stretching over 11,265 km will follow one of the old Silk Roads through Istanbul, Tehran, Lahore and Delhi. The journey, already being described as the greatest by train enthusiasts, will be longer than the Trans-Siberian railway, which spans 9,289 km, reported The Sunday Times.

India has earmarked £90 million to extend its vast rail network towards its border with Myanmar . From there just over 350 km of missing track stands in the way of an overland rail journey from London to Singapore .

Under a UN-sponsored scheme, Pakistan and Iran will link their lines in the coming months to join the sub-continent' s track to that of Europe for the first time. The UN said the link would open up new trade routes within Asia and give the former Soviet republics of Central Asia rail access to Iran 's strategic seaport at Bandar Abbas on the Gulf.

The route was extended when the Kolkata to Dhaka line reopened earlier this month, more than 40 years after it was blocked during the Indo-Pakistan war of 1965.

Last week, senior Indian officials met their Iranian counterparts in Tehran to discuss the progress so far made in the rail network. The prospect has caused excitement among Britain 's rail enthusiasts. Mark Smith, whose website Seat61.com promotes rail adventures around the world, was planning his first London to Dhaka itinerary.. His trip incorporates the Eurostar to Brussels , breakfast in Vienna and onward trains to Istanbul , where travellers must take the ferry across the Bosporus linking Europe with Asia . The ferry will eventually be replaced by an underground tunnel, but for now passengers will be able to enjoy views of the Aya Sofya and Topkapi Palace .

China, a big supporter of the project, is spending billions on extending rail lines to its Myanmar border.
Trans-Asia railway sources said the only barrier to connecting London to Yunnan province and Singapore was Myanmar's military regime, whose poor human rights record means no foreign funding is available.

Bandh or Hartal: Is this the only way?

I do not write about politics or anything related to it. Even i never give a damn to all the political gimmicks our ministers play and make mockery of our Constitution and our beliefs and faith. But when due to their selfishness and to preserve their vote bank, hit the normal life and routine of Indian citizens then i can not stop myself from writing this.

The general peace loving people never demand of any thing other than peace and comfort of life.

But when Bandh or Hartal and sometimes riots are called then it severely disrupts the normal life. Many people who don't even know the cause of the bandh called and even not interested were troubled a lot by these bandh.

After every one week we came to hear this party is called an all India bandh or that party is calling the same, not for the matters of making India proud or for the right causes such as against reservation , lack of electricity, water and necessary amenities of life, but they will call for those matters which we really do not need at all.

How much India got affected can be judged by the following news links:

Even govt also keep mum to preserve their own vote bank, and we the common people are on stake.
Everyone think that all this will continue and cannot be checked, but yes this can be checked if we common people came into the play and take the charge of governing India by pride, self-respect and honour.

The day is not far when we will be at the apex, bu our own deeds and not depending upon these money and power hounding ministers.

This i've written b'coz of an article written by Mr. Dhananjay Mahapatra in today's Times Of India, named ‘Anyone can hold this country to ransom today’ at page 8, it really moved me. Thanks Dhananjay to write such an interesting and eye-opening article.

It goes like this:
Anyone can hold this country to ransom today

New Delhi: As violence and protests brought normal life to a standstill in different parts of the country due to the VHP’s bandh call, the Supreme Court on Thursday slammed the state governments for their inaction.
It said the governments were holding back in the fear of antagonising potential vote banks in an election year even if these groups breached law and order, putting lakhs of common people to inconvenience. And when the courts step in to give people relief, the executive cries “judicial overreach”, the judges said.
What started as a critical comment on a local issue — frequent blockades of National Highway 31A, the sole link between Sikkim and the rest of India, by pro- and anti-Gorkhaland agitationists — soon developed into a torrent of criticism from the apex court.

While directing the governments of West Bengal and Sikkim, the Centre and the Gorkhaland agitationists to keep NH-31A open to traffic round the year, the court counted the incidents — regional jingoism in Maharashtra, uprooting of rail tracks and blockade of highways during the Gujjar agitation, blockade of NH-31A and the recent Hyderabad bandh — and said governments have not acted sternly against those who throw normal life out of gear.

Anyone can hold this country to ransom today. Somewhere the roads are blocked, at other places rail tracks are uprooted and in some other place there is a bandh because of which even supply of medicines are stopped. And the governments do not act because somebody tells them it is election year,” a bench comprising Justices Altamas Kabir and G.S. Singhvi said.

“The entire country is going to be ruined,” the court lamented while continuing its sniping at the governments’ unexplained reluctance to act sternly against those who disrupt normal life.
Those who were required to act in accordance with the mandate of the Constitution were parties to all these disruptions, the court said, adding: Rajasthan faced the music for 45 days.Those who have muscle power can hold everyone to ransom. Whether lakhs of commoners suffer is of least concern to the authorities. It takes just 15 students in a university to bring the entire institution to a stand still. During the Hyderabad bandh, seven persons lost their lives because all supplies, including food and medicines, were hit,” it said.

The executive does not do anything. Everyone waits for the courts to pass an order. The administration is shoving everything to the court. When the court passes some order, they wriggle out saying they did not do anything, it was the courts. And a little later, they cry wolf saying the orders were examples of judicial overreach... the courts were stepping on their toes. This is not fair,” the bench said.

Take for example the Maharashtra incidents. Somebody says something and the entire state burns. The government declares that ‘we will take stern action’. These statements are made to fool the people of this country,” it said.

On the issue of the blockade of NH-31A, Sikkim government counsel A. Mariarputham demanded that the Centre and West Bengal should ensure free flow of traffic and goods on the national highway as the blockade has severely affected normal life in the state.


The bench directed the states, the Centre and the five groups connected with Gorkhaland agitation — Gorkha Janmukti Morcha, Sikkim-Darjeeling Joint Action Forum, Amra Bangali, Jan Jagran Manch and Jan Chetna Manch — to ensure that NH-31A is not blocked at any cost.
