See India2006 with me..!!!

India faced lot of important events in 2006. Here i have given some important events in my view

Indo-US Nuclear deal

The Indo-US civilian nuclear deal is the one of the controversial steps faced by India this year. Some people in india supporting the treaty while others are opposing it. The supporters argued that India needs uranium for its energy needs and this treaty is the must for the Indian energy needs. Yeah I accept all these things,but India is the second largest nation in Thorium productions. We can very well use this thorium for the next hundred years and even beyond that for our energy needs. All we need to do is work on our fast breader reactors. In current technology we can meet our energy needs in 3 step process using thorium reactors and it needs uranium in the second step in the process. According to this treaty, we are supplied by US the large amount of uranium for the next 10-15 years. This will affect our investments and serious work in the thorium plants. We will become the permanent customers of Uranium to US. This treaty makes our civil nuclear plants under international study which is not a good sign for India’s security as we are doing research works for our defence in some of these plants.
The India-US deal will bring few benefits but impose high costs, including an inappropriate energy path, which cannot be measured within a purely nationalist matrix. It deserves to be scrapped. However, even more costs lie in what the deal does to the cause of global nuclear disarmament and peace. With what face can
India now advocate global disarmament after being admitted to the “Atomic Apartheid” order by the US?
The Americans can dominate the world only by creating unequal alliances and thus eliminating the emergence of the rival. For the past more than half a century,
India is one of the major states that is away from the US alliances. Now we too joined the alliance and we now become the US junior ally by this treaty. US treaty with India in another view is to oppose the growth of China as nuclear power in Asia by imposing their ideas in our policies. It is good for Washington but for New Delhi??? –become slaves to the masters.
India would be better off signing the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), rather than this deal!!! At least the NPT allows a signatory to exit, but the deal will bind India forever to the US, all for a certain quantity of uranium:)

Reservations In Elite Institutions

The another important issue faced by India this year is the strikes and oppose against the OBC reservations. I always support the reservations for the welfare of the nation. For the development of the nation it is essential to develop people of every levels. If we started supporting the creamy layer alone, it will make a wide partition among the people based on the economy which is not good for any of us.
The strikes against this were due to their seniors who had created the wrong assumption among the students. They made them to think that they had lost their oppurtunitues to the lower value students by the reservations. In this issue we should think in a broader sense rather than thinking selfishly.

Industrial Developments

This year showed a good progress in IT industries. Many multinational countries increased their investments in India. Tata started its new car manufacuring plant in west bengal. Many developments were faced in this field other than this.

State Elections

This year, state assembly elections were conducted in Tamilnadu, Assam, Kerala, WestBengal. In Tamilnadu, a dravidian party alliance got the majority to rule the state. In kerala and Wbengal communist parties got the power and in assam,the rule was to congress.

Sports

Indian sports faced different phases in this year. Indians secured nineth place in Asian games medals tally. India dominated in Tennis in the Asian games. Indian hockey showed a bad performance this year. Our national game needs an immediate treatment now to regain our past dominance in this game.meet you with my next "Drop!!"..bye

me and 2006..!!!

2006 leaves with lot of memorable moments. This year’s diary becomes one of the sources of sweet memories.I faced some ups and downs with good experience every time. This year introduced me the OpenSolaris through my senior Mr.AnanthShrinivas. Now I am working in opensolaris environment. I have to learn more in this and working for it. I got an oppurtunity to work with content management systems for my college. In this year we went kodaikkanal for industrial visits. Enjoyed with my friends there. Then I have to say about our symposium Cyber06. Our friends made this a grand success by their dedicated work in all committees. I worked in the paper presentation committee and our team did a good job. Though this year introduced me some technical things, I slipped a bit in my exams compared to my previous years. This may be due to my laziness in the exam halls to write the answers completely:). But I am happy with my results. Though this year bags many sweet memories ,I faced some bitter things towards the end of this year through an unknown friend. He used to mail me frequently without his name and saying some unwanted informations about me and my friend. I did a mistake by replying his mail and he started disturbing my peace in all means. Hello friend,don’t trouble me atleast in the coming year. Come with ur original face. Waiting for u:)

Lee-Hesh,The Great Pair!!!

From Grand Slam glory to Olympic dominance, Leander-Mahesh pair have done it all for India.This pair showed the aggressive side of Indian tennis...they were the best and most charismatic sports persons from India. Anyone can accept this if they have seen the finals at the center court,Doha.After losing the first set to the Thailand twins Ratiwatana,the Indian tigers came back strongly to defend their gold medal. They saved 7 gold medal points against the Thai brothers. Ratiwatana brothers even dont want to forget the way the Indian masters make the gold medals to their packets. Excellent lesson by the two greats. Great commitment by the 'IndianExpress'. But again they expressed their differences in the public.Their relationship has seen many ups and lows. But still, they manage the results. This latest flare-up too, can be resolved..All it will take is two men to sit down and talk. If they don't then it won't be the best ending for a pair who once had the world at their feet.meet u with my next "Drop"!!..bye

Black Hat..!!!

Yesterday my friend's password was cracked and the cracker deleted all the accounts. The password used by friend was very easy to guess as she used a person's name and very weak. The black hats enjoy unethical hacking and they use different techniques to crack the passwords. The Shoulder surfing, Dumpster diving are the common techniques used by the black hats. To avoid the password steal, the passwords should be chosen in such a way that they should be as long as possible, include mixed-case letters if possible, should not be based on any personal information and not be based on dictionary word. Make sure that your passwords are strong and keep your accounts safe. meet you with my next "Drop"!!..bye..

RSVP Friendships and BBB..!!!

I always like to have more friends. Enjoyed a lot with them. Recently i heard from a friend that his friend wanted to talk with him for several hours even during the exams through the cell phone. I am having a doubt whether these persons know what a friendship means!! Do they want to refresh their friendship periodically( once in two seconds so that other can use the other second:) ) by saying "I am your friend" for several hours similar to the RSVP refreshing the soft states:). Yeah i accept that these friends are more possessive towards their friends and I praise them. But they should know that they are spoiling their times unnecessarily during their exams, project times. Dont you believe your friends. Dont you know that your friend is also preparing for the exams. Even the Indo-Pak problems are not discussed more than an hour :). Also using the cell phones continuously will affect the Blood Brain Barrier(BBB), a physiological mechanism that alters the permeability of blood capillaries so that some substances, such as certain drugs are prevented from entering the brain tissue while other substances are entered freely. There are some other physical disorders are also possible. Friends think atleast now and make your presence a valuable one to your friend and dont make them feel bad about you to others..meet you with my next "Drop"!!..bye

Day of Advice...

First day of the last month, my sister celebrated her 22nd birthday today. I thought of wishing her at 12.00 am..got up only at 8.then enrolled my belated wishes through phone.she expected my call from the early morning..In the afternoon, while i was driving my two-wheeler to hotel , I met with a minor road accident. That guy drove his vehicle assuming that he was driving in air. I too didnt notice him as i was busy with my cell messaging my friend in the Theatre. It was fortunate as i landed my foot in a correct place instead of going into their wheels..escaped with only small scratches in my left leg ..but it itself caused pain,loss of blood..again a good experience..as a consequence heard advice from my dad and mom..they used the chance very well :) ..went hospital, again advice from my doctor also..thus today was really a day of advice..:)..meet u with my next "Drop"..bye

Parliament to Duban..!!!

Yeah the defeat at Durban was a debacle. It made all Indians feel sad. But the way the opposition party MPs behaved in the Parliament on this issue was really a painful. They questioned BCCI President Mr.Sarath Powar in the question hour about India's failure in Durban. Is it necessary to discuss this in the question hour??. I am having a sudden doubt whether these members know the Nation's demands and the needs or just simply filling the seats of the Parliament. Dont they remember that Mr.Powar is also our union Agricultural Minister. In most part of the country, farmers are suffering a lot and suicides are becoming common in their families. Why dont they ask questions about their welfare. They should try to understand their responsibilities. Do they really worrying about India's pride or just thinking about the BCCI's wealth and richness. They should atleast remember that they are wasting the moneys of the tax payers (I dont know whether these MPs are paying their tax properly :) ..). If they dont know anything about the Nation other than Cricket, its high time for them to leave their chairs to others thinking about the Nation.meet u with my next "Drop"!!..bye

My next journey..!!!

I have got an oppurtunity to do a project in OpenSolaris through our alumni Mr.AnanthShrinivas. The project is on BusyBox. BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable. BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and limited resources in mind both to produce small binaries and to reduce run-time memory usage. We are a group of six members working on this. I like this team very much. All are good team workers. I hope we will complete our work with a grand success. meet u with my next "Drop"!!..bye..
