Ease it man!
Commonwealth games have certainly inflated advertising budgets for the civil agencies like MCD. After numerous assertions on the need of Delhiites getting a mannerism makeover, the Delhi administration is concentrating on issues such as public urination and others.
Driving down to office, ‘Susu kumar’ caught my attention on the radio. A nice campaign from MCD to humiliate ( may be exaggerated) those who urinate publically. I liked the idea as it christened every one of those offenders with the funny yet punitive name of ‘Susu Kumar’.
My drive was far more interesting as I couldn’t help but laugh at those who were easing their bladders on the roadside. I found at least 3 of them on a 30 Km drive to Gurgaon. All was fine and the amusement lasted well till I reached office. I was in for a nasty realization though….read on
Bladder Burster
It was raining when I left office and the excitement of going to CP after so long escalated in the charming weather. However on Delhi streets, rains bring delight and sorrow together. The delight of the weather quickly gets converted into traffic frustration. Spending 40 min on a 600 m stretch is something not so pleasant for sure. Apart from the usual backache and mental agony, something else was also calling for attention.
The bladder was under severe pressure and in such a situation the facial expressions can hardly communicate the charm of the weather. 20 minutes more into finding a public utility or my destination, Susu Kumar comes back on the damn radio. WTF… where is the public suppose to go, they should bloody spend this money that they advertise with on building some toilets, I shouted only to hold on tight as shouting doesn’t really help under “pressure situations”.
It was not before reaching the MC Donalds at Connaught place that the bladder got a sigh of relief and the realization of civilization got its due again. Coming out (after a wash 
) I thought is it fair to expect citizens to be civilized when you don’t have enough infrastructure?(to urinate)
I know it might come across as repulsive to some but hey this can become a question of life and death. I must ask the MCD, “Aakhir Main Susu Kahan Karun?” or may be I should request “Mujhe Susu Kumar ban ne se bachao”. Because I don’t want my country/city to be recognized as one that can’t even provide for enough toilets.
Do put your feelings in the comments…experiences would be even better.
Ciao!!!
China has closed what it claims to be the largest hacker training website in the country and arrested three of its members. The “Black Hawk Safety Net” website ta
ught hacking techniques and provided malicious software downloads for its 12,000 members in exchange for a fee, the Wuhan Evening News newspaper reported this weekend, citing police in Huanggang, just east of Wuhan.
Three people were arrested and the equivalent of a quarter of a million dollars in assets frozen. The accused, are suspected of offering online attacking programs, disseminating viruses and recruiting almost 200,000 members. Police have confiscated nine servers and five computers and completely closed all associated websites.
Over the past 5 years, the site owners had collected more than the equivalent of $1 million in membership fees. Reportedly, paying members were able to download trojans and were coached on writing programs designed to steal accounts for profit.
According to China Daily’s police sources, Black Hawk Safety Net was the subject of research and scrutiny from a team of around 50 police officers ever since 2007, when suspected hackers in another attack were found to be members of the site. There is no word yet as to whether this site or its members of owners were affiliated with the recent attacks on Google accounts and other international entities.

An amazing piece of news! The Internet, which has virtually revolutionised the world, has been nominated for the ‘2010 Nobel Peace Prize’.
The Internet was proposed by the Italian edition of the popular ‘Wired’ magazine for promoting “dialogue, debate and consensus through communication” as well as democracy, the media reported.
Premier endorsers of Internet for Nobel Peace Prize nomination include 2003 Nobel laureate Shirin Ebadi and famous Italian surgeon, known for his contributions to breast cancer treatments, Umberto Veronesi.
‘Wired Italy’ has also launched a dedicated campaign, ‘Internet for Peace’, which will carry on till September 2010, featuring different stories and experiences of those who with the web have tried to do something concrete to promote peace and harmony in the world.
“We have to look at the Internet as a huge community where men and women from all over the world and with very different religious views can communicate and sympathise, spreading a new culture centred on collaboration and sharing of knowledge that breaks all barriers. “For this reason, the Internet can be considered the first weapon of mass construction, which we can deploy to destroy hate and conflict and propagate peace and democracy. “What happened in Iran after the latest election and the role the web played in spreading information that would otherwise have been censored, are only the newest examples of how the Internet can become a weapon of global hope,” Riccardo Luna, Editor of ‘Wired Italy’, said at the launch.
Get ready for some ‘masaledaar stuff’. ISHQIYA isn’t your regular romantic comedy or a sweet love story. Yes, Ishqiya is romantic but with a whole lot of twists n turns that keep you guessing!
Two thieves, Khalujaan [Naseeruddin Shah] and Babban [Arshad Warsi], are on the run from a don, Mushtaq. They seek refuge at a friend’s (Verma) house, but instead meet his widow, Krishna [Vidya Balan]. The time spent together draws the duo to her, Khalu dreams about her in a traditional style while Babban plays the typical hindi film ’hawas ka pujaari’. But soon…things take a different turn with regular shockers!
The good part of the story is that it never goes over the top and the romance tracks are taotally believable. Right from the beginning its clear that Vidya Balan is making a ‘Ch….am sulphate’ of Naseer and Arshad. And despite that the plot doesn’t get predictable and holds you through an intriguing climax.
Director Abhishek Chaubey comes from the ‘Vishal Bhardwaj’ school and does a commendable job of executing a watertight script. Even the songs, unlike in other movies, 
take the story forward. GulzarSaab and Vishal create magic in the music department. Every song is special…period!
Every actor delivers ‘magical’ performances in the movie. Naseeruddin Shah is his brilliant self while Arshad Warsi shows why he should be given a variety of roles rather than just being a comic actor and finally, Vidya Balan delivers her best performance till date…grey, white, black; the character gives her scope to play every shade it she does it to perfection.
There is one thing about all The performances are magical Vishal Bhardwaj movie, he brings in brilliant character artists- every actor is his movies seems like pro – from a kid like Nandu to the don Mushtaq or Kakkar…well done Mr Bhardwaj.
Final Word – Must watch…4/5
