Sachin Tendulkar -“good things do come in small packages”

“Good things do some in small packages”
When a 16 year old kid 5″5 ft walked in to the crease in 89″ who would have thought he would have a journey of 24 years with excitement ,fun ,drama ,action all that a masala movie would have in 3 hr this guy had it all he was none other than Sachin Tendulkar .
Sachin Tendulkar ,is not going to be seen again on the field from now onwards ,but he has was one of the players ,who has given us so much moments to remember through out our childhood .And a career spanning 24 years just tells us “he was 16 years old with 24 years of experience “.He was also one player ,who just did what he knew – that was to play cricket .
He Sachin Tendulkar is a brand for the country who has changed our national sport from hockey to cricket ,you would hardly see people watching hockey ,but cricket everybody did .He has been an inspiration for so many that the current Indian team have all been inspired by him to be part of the game .
Sachin Tendulkar has created so many milestone and records that there isn’t any point in watching the game because they won’t be broken.
He had the passion,dedication that showed by he played ,even during his comeback from injury he was written off ,but it did not matter .
There will be no one like Sachin,nor would there be another Sachin .
Because Sach people are rare!!!

Happy Diwali!!!

Diwali -festive season

 

this is Diwali !!! a week before

Diwali !!! its just a week away and it doesn’t really feel like the festive season is here ,you can hardly see any lights, and decoration ,also the firecracker have all gone silent ,in a way its surely is good to see that the pollution level and noise pollution falling ,but some noise should be there to feel its Diwali,also at a recent Diwali party I noticed people clicking more of there photography rather than playing cards like we normally would do with token(coins) from the past few years .Also I guess ,Diwali has not being given that much of importance ,since we have internet,so many apps and so many events all over the year its just become like any-other festival ,And since in India the dollar ,the economy downturn has made people more careful this Diwali,its become such a peaceful festival from the nosiest good for the environment .

Also the importance of Diwali will soon Dissappear at this rate ,I remember reading somewhere about kids asking there parents can we celebrate Diwali on our tablets ,this to me was like a joke when I first read ,but now its a serious thought to think about .

Technology is ruling us ,not we ruling the technology .

Anyways .

Happy Diwali !!!

Bitcoins!!!

the bitcoins

 

The concept was introduced in a 2008 paper by a pseudonymous   Developer   known only as “Satoshi Nakamoto”, who called it a Peer-to-peer  , electronic cash system and There are people who are very excited about the idea behind Bitcoin. As Bitcoins can be transferred through a computer   or Smartphone  without an intermediate financial institution. The processing of Bitcoin transaction   is secured by servers   called bitcoin miners.

These servers communicate over an internet-based network and confirm transactions by adding them to a ledger  which is updated and archived periodically using Peer-to-peer file sharing   technology. In addition to archiving transactions, each new ledger update creates some newly minted bitcoins. The number of new bitcoins created in each update is halved every 4 years until the year 2140 when this number will round down to zero. At that time no more bitcoins will be added into circulation and the total number of bit coins will have reached a maximum of 21 million bitcoins. To accommodate this limit, each bitcoin is subdivided down to eight decimal places; forming 100 million smaller units called satoshis.
The Bitcoin protocol for the bitcoin cryptocurrency is an open source cryptographic protocol that operates on a peer-to-peer network. It uses a chain or “blockchain” of transactions to achieve consensus and to solve the double-spending problem. …

London Trip!!!

The London was the most awaited Trip ,there Is surely something about London that drives you crazy ,but the transport connectivity of the buses,trains and the tube drove me crazy since It Is  planned so well that you can just find your way back home ,the only city that came to my mind after seeing there transport facilities was Mumbai since the Mumbai Local “Lifeline of  Mumbai where millions travel by every day .Only If the population could be controlled a bit the railways services could be enjoyed a bit more and if the roads could be better the buses could be enjoyed too .

And the second thing the weather its humidity just kills .

back to London ,the places in London too reminded me about one of my favourite games  during my childhood days and is still my favourite the monopoly that had mayfair ,park lane ,piccadilly circus to name just a few ,every time I  went to any place I would well remember the colour of  the cards .

London are known for the “Gora”whites but you could hardly see any there were mostly blacks for a moment I got confused whether I am in the UK or in a caribbean Island , no I am not being racist here but I am just speaking about an interesting observation .

Also There were hardly any places for the fish & Chips , only Pizza the Italian cuisine has taken over with so many Italian Restaurants.

Overall the Trip was amazing !!! Hope to visit Again soon .

 

Flight journey

emirates There have been many airlines that I have traveled by including Cathay pacific ,Lufthansa ,jet airways ,Turkish airlines and now by Emirates and I was dissapointed by there services the first flight to dubai was just perfect but when we left for London the flight ice the entertainment system was troubling a lot in the seven hours journey i had to change a few seats and jut complete a 2hour movie in seven hours ,I also read a few magazines but people who are restless what do they do?
Some people were happy to get sleep ,while other running to get a seat where the system is working ,for a airlines who have won quite a few awards this was least expected and I also wonder are these awards just for there magazines only because there services were slow ,we were done with our meal 2 hours ago and after 2hours they took away our tray .
This was my worst flight journey and also because it was the longest journey on a stretch .
