Year 2007....

As all do, its time to look back at the passing year to analyze the positives and negatives that happened to you. Well, there were a lot of negatives that happened to me but every time I kept on learning a positive thing out of it and now I am strong believer of

"We must be the change we want to see in the world"

Thanks 2007..

Nicknames

"Have you ever heard of person nicknamed "Bob" whose actual name is "Robert"??" or

"Polly, Patsy, Peggy, and Nancy are actually nicknames for Mary, Martha, Margaret, and Ann, respectively."

Its kinda confusing but interesting as well. In English the nicknames may not always tell you the real name of the person. After doing some googling I got this interesting info. Some excerpt

Yuvraj Singh.. A Ton in Last Session.. Fabulous

I still remember when I was a kid, my father bought a cricket book for me. It had a little story of the cricket match between Australia and England at Headingley in 1930. Sir Don Bradman hit a triple ton in a single day of a test match. He scored 105 in first session, 115 in second and scored 89 in by the time the day finished.

Yuvraj Singh repeated the feat yesterday when he scored a ton in the last session of the play on the first day of the third test match between India and Pakistan at Bangalooru (Yes, its no more Bangalore its bangalooru). He was at 67 when India went in for tea. He got out in the third last over of the day with 169 in his pocket. 102 in just one session.

It was an innings of great class, awesome timing, high back lift, perfect placement, a touch of arrogance and loads of confidence. Watch the highlights here

Madhuri is as stunning as she was in her twenties.

Konkana Sen has run away with a little cameo.
