Take my breath away....it's just fabulous !

One of my favorites of Sarah Brightman. I have always admired her & Andrea Boccelli for their amazing fusion music saga & has always been stunned with their distinctive composition... The song is just the right kind of music one want to listen to get myself relaxed ! A complete stress buster for me.

Diwali Feast

Diwali Feast Originally uploaded by Biplab Narendra What an amazing Diwali Feast this year.. As usual i was away from my Parents due the fact of we being working away shores but it was delight with few of the dear friends to join us for dinner with little firecracker celebration. No doubt it was a different celebration all together as compared to last year. For us, Diwali is all about celebrating together with great food and company & in fact we had it all that needs to be there to make it a memorable one. Thanks to all for getting together and wishing all the world a peaceful & joyous new year ahead.

Tricolor touch to INR

Image
Finally a symbol for Indian rupee to the world ! An Indian Character with an international flavor. Thanks to Udaya K from Mumbai to formalize a symbol for the Indian rupee which reflects and captures Indian spirit, ethos and culture. It's design is an amalgam of the Devanagari letter "र" (ra) and the Latin capital letter "R" without its vertical bar which gives an allusion to the tricolor Indian flag. That day is not long when we will be tendering the payment in Indian rupee abroad and that will be accepted with open hands. All fingers crossed !

Though it was a long drive from Atlanta to Boone - Heart of High Country via Greensboro to pick up one of my friends...the man in the middle of the picture :-) Everything was just exciting about this trip from the dangling car in the middle of the road while moving @ 80 miles/hr, the graveyard next to the cottage, the total secluded place deep in the mountains, Desi tandoori chicken , the hot jacuzzi @ 40 F, last but not the least "Glenfiddich" - We all jut love the scotch :-) Thanks to Manas for planning this trip, Sunil for Logistic, Ashok for his valuable comments, Sushil for his Perseverance & of course me for everything else :-) Bet we all definitely had a good times.....Kingfisher style !

China - Galloping ahead. Leaving rest behind...

Image
It always rings a bell in my mind when i hear, see or read something on China these days. As in just today, i opened up telegraph.co.uk news and saw the electrifing pic of 2010 Shanghai world expo. Just yesterday only at the same time, we were in the Stark Expo (in Regal cinema) and now we are actually talking something more realistic and feasibly practical on Chinese Expo. Well at the first glance itself, the pavillions in Shanghai expo mesmerized me with the electrifying beauty. Need to take some time out and read whats going on in the expo. To learn more on the ongoing Expo please visit - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/shanghai-2010-expo/

Saved from Deadly Mishap !

Well the Year 2010 has just started and i could have almost meet a disaster on the end of the Jan the 7 while driving back home. No doubt the community i have been leaving for past 10 months does hold a record breaking instances every time the weather changes it's course putting the residents in grave danger; And this time its was the Snow. Well something similar did happen on this 7Th Jan..which i would say a fortunate day (because i came out of it scratch less) Though it sounds such an unlucky number 7 which sometime is written as "SE7EN" but fortunately i was somehow saved from a great disaster from happening. Thanks to the KIA Spectra's untrustworthy brakes (now after this i wont say that anymore) and the tough concrete shoulder pavement that made my car stop right before a car which was stuck in between the road. I had never thought that driving in snow would be that tough until i did test myself driving on them once. It was no doubt a good learning to take extra...

Andre Agaasiii ! Originally uploaded by Biplab Narendra This September long weekend went completely different as one could have imagined it to be. Though we never had any concrete plans to go out but probably it was the destiny which restricted us to stay back in atlanta and made us to work with testing timeline getting more and more squessed with lot of devices being speculated to be coming into the market in the first launch. Well all the lntinfoknights had a good time at the tennis court and back to back movies on the latest accusation of mine - Dell M109 S.

Survival of Fittest !

Well we would have heard of it in the line of Duty which doesn't even matter in which field you are into. If you miss something in the 100m run, someone else is gonna eat the whole pie ! With the current trends in the recession hit market which is trying its very best to rise up, one gotta be the best horse in the long run or else you will be hit bad enough to shut your business behind and take a life-long retirement. We do keep seeing some trends like the one we have heard is on the alliance of Microsoft & Nokia to bring business software to smart phones and counter the dominance of Research in Motion Ltd's BlackBerry. This alliance comes at such a moment when Google is hitting on the nerves of Microsoft with its Android fever; RIM doing exceptionally well in the field for mobile e-mail and its dominance in the corporate sector which restricted Nokia's attempts to crack the market in recent years. One thing that's for sure is the people of the technological world w...

Bid Adieu to Kansas City

So finally our 4 weeks of stupendous work at STIC Labs has finally come to an end with we all delivering our best to the client expectations. We are still kind of unsure how these 4 weeks passed by like a click on fingertips; but definitely got a good experience in return which in fact will overshadow my resume :-) There were a moments of bad and good time; of course some were the moments to cherish. Got to meet a few new faces here, had some unforgettable moments captured on my flickr , the serene beauty of this place and not to miss the nature's touch to this place. Hope to visit this place once again if we can. Here are the moments we shared at city of fountains Goodbye KC. Hope to see you soon !

Back to Basics

Its been really long since i have posted any article on my blog. Well infact the last 4 weeks have been so hectic not only for me but for the whole team up here in Kansas City that we hardly get a sound sleep for 8 hours a day except weekends when we had the time to dispense whatever and however way possible. But by the time the weekends knock our doorsteps we are already run out of the juice in our body to enjoy. What we would do is to lay in the bed for the whole day just the same way a alligator lay open in the sun. It's just a part of life. And i do remember that we say most of the time that i don't have much of work but when it actually come then people start thinking that i got lot of work. No matter whether we have work or no there is no way a human can make a balanced mind. That's a reality very few people can see and feel. Well i am not saying that i felt it but that everyone would have felt it in a way or other but just they are not ready to accept it.
