The Unforgettable Crocodile Hunter

Yesterday night I was watching Nat Geo and they were telecasting old videos of Crocodile Hunter.... Steve Irwin. Most people do remember him as Crocodile Hunter only. Mostly because of his heroic action in front of dangerous reptiles and his enthusiasm made him popular in a very short duration.

The reason behind me writing about him is yesterday's show only. He died almost two and a half years ago and I don't know about others, but at least for me when ever i watch his show in the TV, I feel very sad that he is no longer with us. In yday's show, he was as usual daring and full of energy and the way he was handling those reptiles were as if like they are all his babies...
In the middle of the Australian jungle, he found a snake and as per his words, it is one of the most poisonous snake and it can lift its head to certain height and move as quick as possible to hit its prey. When I saw the way he took that snake in his hand really made my hair stand.

After seeing this only one thought came in my mind, How can he get killed by a fish ??
Stingray which is the culprit for his death doesn't attack on human beings and death caused by its sting is very rare. For anyone who heard about his death and the cause behind it, for sure felt amazed by this freakish incident. He has done many controversial stunts and the whole world knows he is famous for handling dangerous creatures.
But his death was so sudden and shocking... even he himself wouldn't have imagined. His death at the age of 44 is not the age to die and I also feel he didn't deserve this death.
He is a great personality, most loved, admired animal lover and care taker, I would like to dedicate this post for 'Crocodile Hunter' and for all his great work he did during his life time.

FINDING AND KEEPING A LIFE PARTNER

Hi, Found this good article….. It is worth spending some time and reading this…….. When it comes to making the decision about choosing a life partner, noone wants to make a mistake. Yet, with a divorce rate of close to 50%, it appears that many are making serious mistakes in their approach tofinding Mr./Miss. Right!If you ask most couples who are engaged why they're getting married,they'll say: "We're in love"; I believe this is the ..1 mistake people make when they date. Choosing a life partner should never be based onlove. Though this may sound "not politically correct", there's aprofound truth here.Love is not the basis for getting married. Rather, love is the result of a good marriage . When the other ingredients are right, then thelove will come. Let me say it again: "You can't build a lifetimerelationship on love alone"; You need a lot more!!!Here are five questions you must ask yourself if you're serious aboutfinding and keep

Unity In Diversity

I chose this name to my post because most of us do remember reading this in our text books during school days. This is what our teachers used to preach everyday in school and we did believe that and felt good about our nation. As we grew up and started to understand what is happening around us, its natural to ask ourselves do we really have unity in diversity. Ok friends, by now you might have hinted what am i trying to write here... yes you guessed it right. Its all about the controversy we are hearing in news "Marathi Vs Hindi" ... Is language dividing Indians, instead of uniting us ??? Do we really need this kind of controversies ?? I personally feel what ever statement Mrs.Bachchans made in public might have hurt Marathi people but then she didn't speak in some language which they don't understand like Latin, Arabic or Malayalam. She spoke in 'Hindi' which is considered as our national language. I feel there was no need for Mr.Raj Thackeray to make a big i

Life Updates -2

Last weekend i thought of going to a movie in forum. It was 2:30 in the afternoon and didnt get a single ticket for either 4'o clock show or 7'o clock. In the ticket kiosk i see only 'Sold Out' for most of the movies. Cant help as malls are the only entertainment in a city like Bengaluroo. What next ??? i decided to peep inside Landmark!!! which was crowded as though some discount sale is on. I just walked around the 2nd floor and didnt find anything interesting then went to book sections in 1st floor. Was just looking here and there and found this book just behind the counter/help desk. The book is called "Project Management-A Comedy of Errors" by Prasanna Kumar. Just went through the prologue and Publisher's note. the book seemed to be interesting. I just turned few pages and read few lines. It was interesting. So just decided to go for it. This book is not a serious guide for project management. Author talks about the most curious thing "What happe
