Did you know that there is a system in our constitution, as
per the 1969 act, in section "49-O" that a person can go to the polling
booth,confirm his identity, get his finger marked and convey the presiding
election officer that he doesn't want to vote anyone!
Yes such a feature is available, but obviously these seemingly
notorious leaders have never disclosed it. This is called "49-O".
Why should you go and say "I VOTE NOBODY"... because, in a ward, if a
candidate wins, say by 123 votes, and that particular ward has
received "49-O" votes more than 123, then that polling will be
cancelled and will have to be re-polled. Not only that, but the
candidature of the contestants will be removed and they cannot contest
the re-polling, since people had already expressed their decision on
them.
This would bring fear into parties and hence look for genuine
candidates for their parties for election. This would change the way,
of our whole political system... it is seemingly surprising why the
election commission has not revealed such a feature to the public....
Please spread this news to as many as you know... Seems to be a
wonderful weapon against corrupt parties in India... show your power,
expressing your desire not to vote for anybody, is even more powerful
than voting... so don't miss your chance.
So either vote, or vote not to vote (vote 49-O) and pass this info
on....
LETS BE AWARE YOUNGISTAN !!!!

Waste Of Time on CRAP ( By Floyd)
Hey !!! ... hws life?
TV !!! ... the very name of the idiot box used to make me excited a year ago. TV was synonymous to entertainment and education called as 'edutainment' and Im not talking about Discovery or NatGeo. I mean to say things used to be quite sensible and creative even on the channels watched by the common man.
What pisses me off the most are the 'bakvaas' news channels that air crappy stories with no truth and of no consequence to anyone. Now, there is really no way one can keep a count of the number of such channels being aired.I also realize that this is just the beginning of the end of sensible television.
WHY WOULD I BE BOTHERED ABOUT THE DIET OF 8-FEET MONSTER GREAT KHALI????
IPL,ICL and what not......
The coming of the Indian Premier League will mean more cricket ,more entertainment and more waste of time . I find it absurd that people who will never play the game,sit for hours together and watch 11 men scratching their crotches on field.
It is understandable that youngsters who play cricket watch it to learn new tricks which they can put to practice when they play,but how does a pot-bellied 40 yr old who cant walk 5mins justify such waste of time? and their silly daughters fantasize cricketers rather then watching the game . I feel that creativity and health take a backseat because of this .It is indeed very sad . The same 40 yr old gentleman could have gone to the park for a walk instead of lying on the couch. He could have shared some of his experiences in life with his silly daughter or taught her some creative art or craft which he knows.
But he rather choses to invest his time to gurantee himself a bypass surgery at the age of 45 so that his poor wife has to cry rivers and be worried about the future of his children.By the way , he also invests his time to make sure that business people like Vijay Mallya ,SRK and Preity Zinta get richer.
Sorry all ya cricket fans .. but this is the TRUTH and it is BITTER ... bye for now!!!

Hi Friend !!!
Greetings for Eid , Holi and Easter.
Well , I must say that this month of March is really a happening one.
Dhoni and Sacrificial lambs
Today is Maundy Thursday which is also the traditional Passover festival for Jews.As I was perusing the papers i saw this article about our Indian captain MS Dhoni sacrificing a goat in a Ranchi temple to celebrate India's victory. There was a time when I used to idolise Dhoni as a winner and as style icon to the extent of even growing my hair like him , but his recent acts have made me think otherwise.
So,is animal sacrifice justifiable ?
Gurudev Sri Sri RaviShankarji answered this same question beautifully , "Animal sacrifice doesn't imply sacrificing Innocent animals but sacrificing the animal within us"
That says it all and is what celebrities like Dhoni and the Nepali king should realise and stop such cruelty in the name of religious sacrifice.
( To Dhoni: "Annihilate the animal within you that makes you look like a fool chasing immature starlets like Deepika Padukone")
Bulls and bears and bearing the
recession
I recently came across this term called "Bear Market". From what I
understood , a market under recession and not doing well like the
current one is called a bear market and a more flourishing market is
called a Bull market.Bulls and bears are indeed very dreaded animals.
Leaving you with these thoughts about money , animals and animal instincts I bid adieu , but promise that I'll be back soon .
See You .. take care!!!!

Thats Some +ve attitude eh ?!?
There are days in each one of our lives where we feel its the end of the world.. it seems as though your floatin to the dark side of the world .. nothing really matters.. you try the futile attempt of easing the troubled mind..
Then the unnamed feeling
It comes alive
Then the unnamed feeling
Takes me away
I'm frantic in your soothing arms
I can not sleep in this down filled world
I've found safety in this loneliness
But I cannot stand it anymore
The song was playing in my head for quite sometime.. i was perusing the day's paper but hardly doing so.. cz my thoughts were elsewhere..when suddenly an article caught my attention..Well, to be honest, the title wasnt very captivating.. "Positive attitude a Self reward " i thought it was just another attempt to stop the innumerable suicide attempts that our generation was indulging themselves in..Yet again there was something in that article that made me focus on what i was reading..
here goes... (do read it)
"An old man was walkin along the seashore when he came upon a part of beach where there were plenty o starfish was ashore. Little further.. he saw a young woman frantically picking up the starfish one at a time & throwing them in the water again.the man surised by this exclaimed "you silly girl, u cant possibly save them all. there are too many of them. It wont make a difference."she paused for a second then picked another one tossed it in the sea &said "there.. i made a difference to this one !"the old man could only jus shake his head in awe."
well, not only was he awestruck, so was I. i guess at the end of the day all that really matters is how u take things in life. No matter how insurmountable things may be, its just your attitude that makes all the difference.We should learn to believe that we are masters of our own fate..we just need to start believing that the task set to us aint above our strength.. I definitely wish to run my own race..after all oppurtunity is jus so god damn rare.. n i surely want to " soak it up like a sponge "
On that POSITIVE NOTE , buhbye ;-)
