An unusal buildings in the worlds

Submitted by Jayesh on
If you saw this picture for the first time, you'd probably thought that it was hit by a massive earthquake. But it wasn't. In true fashion of the Ripley Legacy, it was built to reflect the odd 1812 earthquake that measured 8.0 on the rick. The building has now become one of the most photographed in the world because of it.

Meerut Fier : Inadequate measures .The fire is believed to have been sparked off by a short circuit at one of the stalls, and was fueled by the plastic matting on the floor. .The inflammable covering in the air-conditioned hall also helped the flames spread to the other two halls. .The tent in which the fair was being held had a common entry and exit point, making it difficult to escape when the fire spread. .The situation worsened when the gas cylinders inside the pandals burst. This shows the lack of precaution and preparation for fire accident.

Abraham Lincoln's letter to his son's teacher

He will have to learn, I know, that all men are not just, all men are not true, but teach him also that for every scoundrel there is a hero, that for every selfish politician there is a dedicated leader. Teach him that for every enemy there is a friend.

Baisakhi, also called Vaisakhi, is a harvest festival celebrated on 13th of April according to the solar calendar. Baisakhi is a time of abundance signifying both material and spiritual prosperity. Farmers thank God for His benevolence for ensuring a good harvest and pray for an encore next year. It also commemorates the establishment of the order of Khalsa for Sikhs.

To day after we sung National Anthem I turned back to see a person standing in attension. Interesting thing here is his respect for the national anthem. So what is special about it? He was standing with the support of sticks. moral: Whoever be it ... The rich or the poor ... the basic thing that a person should have within him is feeling for his nation.

Our school had its science block on top of a hillock. We used to walk up to the computer labs with our wonderful inspiring teacher Mr. Tindale. One afternoon, Mr. Tindale was talking about his work as a headmaster. We were talking about the ways to get the work done by people. In that conversation he cited this quote:

You can do anything in the world
If you dont look for credit

All of us know that reservation in educational institutions is wrong. Dont we? I am not exactly looking for people ho want to talk about that by means of this blog post. All I am looking for is this: People to come up and say -'This is what I want to do to oppose this move.' I am looking for people who want to take it on themselves to take up a protest. I am talking about direct action. Pl contact me if you are interested in this. If you have a rush of blood which is waiting to be converted into focal work.

I received a call today. It was from a very special person. A person who I has met 6 years back in the same month of April. A person who was so very important for me(and is). I have been bad at relationships. I can never really figure out what the others take for obvious. That is possibly one reason why people around me are usually frustrated with me. Whether they claim so or not is a different matter. Dust was slowly gathering on the relationship that we had.

Learning from Sachin

Submitted by sunny on

Hi I am a cricket buff but i really like it when I can appreciate the beauty of the cricketer as well as his art . of all the cricketers I have watched SACHIN TENDULKAR remains my favorite not just for his cricket but also for his persona now this is what I like about him :
1. CONQUERED MT EVEREST NOW AIMING FOR STARS - a person who has rewritten all the records in the cricket book still has the hunger to go n give 100% on the field . How many of us have the same dedication towards our profession or families.
