Saturday, February 11, 2012. Interesting facts and analysis of Facebook's imminent foray into the Market by The Economist: Here. Alert readers must have noticed that I chose to share it only on my blog page and not on Facebook! With that, I have made a note for myself to reduce time spent on Facebook and invest it into something more creative somewhere else (like, here on blogger or reading a physical book! I wish I could get to that 2% material without spending 7 minutes on FB :). I agree, its about the...

In Tale: Check, mate!

http://ajitoke.blogspot.com/2012/05/check-mate.html

Wednesday, May 30, 2012. It was an interesting experience to follow the chess world championship match that got over today at Moscow, with Vishy Anand of India being crowned the World Champion for the fifth time. Here, at work, there was a large interest (because an Israeli was the challenger). At one of our weekly volleyball games, my friend teased me (Gelfand had just won a game to take lead in the 12-match series) about Israeli superiority. I simply had to offer a (Slav? I also followed that match and...

In Tale: Out of this world

http://ajitoke.blogspot.com/2012/10/out-of-this-world.html

Tuesday, October 02, 2012. Out of this world. There was an accusation that the congress president spent INR1800 crores = $320 million over three years on foreign trips. Let's try to see what $320M can buy for you:. Foreign air-travel (assuming 200 round-trip first class tickets) over three years: $2M;. Assuming $10k/day stay at a hospital for 12 months: $3.65M;. Medicines: $0.5M per year (World's costliest drug)=$1.5M for three years;. Surgery: $1.2M (world's costliest procedure). Followers of the Tale.

In Tale: Let Me Check

http://ajitoke.blogspot.com/2013/08/let-me-check.html

Wednesday, August 28, 2013. American Express is, simply put, an overrated brand to own a credit card from. I have had enough experiences in the "America" when the shops proudly exclaimed "We don't accept that card! So much for having the "Corporate Card" from American Express. Perhaps, it was yet another example of typical Israeli risk taking :). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). E-mail: ajitoke @ gmail.com. Followers of the Tale. I also write at. 2405;उगाच उवाच॥.

In Tale: Paths of Glory

http://ajitoke.blogspot.com/2012/12/paths-of-glory.html

Monday, December 31, 2012. Watched "Paths of Glory" a couple of weeks back. Once you have watched it, it's not easy to forget it. Although the background is that of war, one may find many parallels and situations to relate it to. I read somewhere that there was a serious discussion to convert the film's end into a happy one. However, it was not done that way, and I think that's the high point of the film. Don't miss it - if you can't find it, borrow from me :). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

In Tale: Perspective

http://ajitoke.blogspot.com/2011/09/perspective.html

Wednesday, September 14, 2011. The tame bird was in a cage, the free bird was in the forest,. They met when the time came, it was a decree of fate. The free bird cries, "O my love, let us fly to wood.". The cage bird whispers, "Come hither, let us both live in the cage.". Says the free bird, "Among bars, where is there room to spread one's wings? Alas," cries the cage bird, "I should not know where to sit perched in the sky.". Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

MAD ANT: January 2006

VERITAS VOS LIBERABIT - The Truth Shall Set You Free. Saturday, January 28, 2006. A friend of mine in this. Gregory David Roberts states in ‘Shantaram’: Gradually, I realized that the wiggle of the head was a signal to others that carried an amiable and disarming message: I am a peaceful man. I don’t mean any harm. (Pg, 107). Ditto for the ‘Hi, how are you’ and 'salaam alai kum'. Posted by Vedant Patwardhan @ 4:49 PM. Friday, January 27, 2006. More thoughts on Cricket.
