A few days back on Monday 21st December 2009, Sant Meera School in Angol (Belgaum) received a call at 2.25pm about a bomb being kept in the school and immediately the school was made empty and the dog squad searched for any bombs or explosives. But nothing of that sort was recovered. My niece is studying in 1st standard in the same school.
Though the school was emptied immediately and students were sent back to their homes, the school authorities didn't inform it to the parents. My niece goes to school daily by auto rickshaw. Her school time ends at 4.00 pm. Since this incident happened at 2.25pm her regular auto driver was not present in school at the moment, hence she started walking home alone. While coming back, once she forgot the way to home and after roaming for some time she found a familiar landmark and fortunately came home safely..
Surprisingly, school authorities let only 1st standard students to go where as many other students were in school and they went home at regular time. This is an example of poor administration in Sant Meera School. We are fortunate that my niece came home on her own. If something bad would have happened, who is going to take responsibility of the incidence. At least school autorities should have informed the parents to come and pickup their children.
I owned Bajaj Discover 125 which I purchased in Year 2004. When we purchase a new vehicle, we have to get it insured. I insured my vehicle from Bajaj Allianz General Insurance Company by paying approximately Rs. 1000/- as first year premium.
The premium payment process worked well for next two years and every year I paid some reduced premium amount (Insurance premium amount should decrease every year because the value of the asset reduces every year because of depreciation). But in 2007, Bajaj Allianz person told me that we have to pay a premium of Rs. 1000/- because company has increased the prices. I blindly agreed and paid. In 2008, again the same issue, and I paid 1000/-.
This year I went to pay the premium and surprisingly they asked me to pay 2000/-. As I knew the premium amount should decrease every year but in this case it was reverse in this case. Above all Bajaj Allianz has discontinued all the notification (like premium due date, premium amount etc.) being sent to customers. This means customer has to check when the insurance period is going to end, and before the period ends he has to go to Bajaj Allianz office and pay whatever amount say.
Later I visited websites of ICICI Lombard, Reliance Insurance companies to calculate premium amount for a 5 year old vehicle. The calculated amount came around Rs. 800/-. I found that whatever being said by Bajaj Allianz people was completely wrong and without any document, letter proof from company or government, they are charging huge premium amounts to their customers.
After getting a bad experience from Bajaj Allianz I went to National Insurance Company and purchased a new policy from them. The premium amount I paid was only Rs. 682/-.
Thus when you purchase any policy, do verify the policy details by comparing similar policies of at least two companies. Private companies may charge extra without any reason, just what happened in my case.
I love to use Firefox as a portable browser. It helps me carry my settings, forms, passwords etc stored in a pen drive and use it on any computer.
Almost every 15 days - 1 month a new version of Firefox is released (3.5.0, 3.5.1 --- 3.5.5). The latest version is 3.5.5. Yesterday I downloaded Portable Firefox 3.6 beta 4. Whenever a new Firefox beta is released it doesn't support many add-on extensions which we have been using in old Firefox. Thus when we install beta it in our system, we see all the extensions are disabled saying that it's incompatible with new version and we left no choice than reverting back to stable version.
But this time there is an extension which will test the compatibility of all extensions with new beta release. Here we can check whether the extension is working in Firefox beta or not. In either case we can report its functionality to Firefox team.
In portable Firefox we just have to copy the 'Data' folder from older installation directory to new one and we can start using new beta with all preferences, themes and extensions of old Firefox.
Except a few, almost all extensions are working fine in my 3.6 beta 4. I found that CoolPreviews extension is not compatible with Firefox 3.6 Beta 4, so i reported it to Firefox and disabled the extension.
DURGA MATA DAUD (DURGA MATA RUN) is a unique feature of Belgaum City. This event occurs every year during NAVARATRA FESTIVAL. The objective behind this run is to create awareness among people, expressing solidarity with and inspiring the youth to lead a healthy life free from intoxication and other evils of society. The run is also aimed at inculcating patriotic and brotherhood feelings and motivating the youth to work for building a strong nation, both economically and culturally. Children garbed in the colourful costumes of Shivaji and his mother, Jijabai, and soldiers lead the run in a chariot.
The run begins on the first day of NAVARATRA FESTIVAL and ends on VIJAYADASHAMI (Popularly known as DASARA). In 9 days more than 30000 people of all age groups, even women join this run. The run covers all parts of Belgaum with one part every day.
This year’s run was very special because of the presence of Dr. Amol Kolhe. Dr. Kolhe plays the character of “SHIVAJI’ in a Marathi serial ‘RAJA SHIVACHATRAPATI’ broadcasted on Star Pravah.
I took the opportunity to be the part of this run on last day. Because of Dr. Kolhe’s arrival, people gathered in huge numbers around 10000 to be a part of this run. The run was scheduled to begin from Maruti Temple (Maruti Galli) at 5.30 am and the end point was Jatti Math (Bogarves). This run was planned such as it will cover all the famous temples of Belgaum City. However Dr. Kolhe was present only to kick start the event and he didn't take part in actual run.

Recently we went for one day picnic to visit Siddhagiri Museum. The place is near from Kolhapur city towards Belgaum on Pune-Bangalore highway. Siddhagiri Museum is spread over 700 acres, includes more than 300 sculptures. The main objective of this museum is to refresh the history of self-sufficient village.
The journey begins with the sculptures of great ancient Indians in fields of Astronomy, Mathematics, Medicines, Ayurveda, Law, and Management. Aryabhatta (Mathematitian), Bhagirath (Engineer), Bharatmuni (Musicologist), Maharshi Kaanad (studies on biatomic & triatomic molecules), Kashyap (Gynecologist), Varahmihir (Astronomer), Vishnusharma (Politics – Panchatantra) are to name a few.
After this a typical farming is described in the form of sculptures. All the operations of farming (Perani, Malani, Nangarani etc.) are shown here. The village describes every possible work profession which are necessary for human living. There were 12 BALUTEDARS (12 main profession based casts i.e. Professions performed by generation by family members) and 18 ALUTEDARS, who provided equipment's to all villagers useful in their day-to-day necessities of domestic as well as Agricultural life. Raashi Garden is newly added feature in this museum. Raashi garden has sculptures of zodiac signs.
Great care and efforts have been taken to build this museum. The sculptures are 5 to 6 feet tall and made of cement. These sculptures looks very realistic and every minute detail of human body like nerves on forearm & forehead, abdominal muscles, eyes, expressions etc. is shown. Maintenance of the museum is not very good and road to reach the museum is also in bad condition but it makes you to forget these things after watching all the sculptures in museum. Taking photographs is banned at this place. I found some pictures on internet which i have attached as screenshots. More information about this museum can be found on http://www.siddhagirimuseum.org/

I believe and have interest in astrology, numerology and similar kind of sciences. This topic is related to the names of people. We meet so many people every day and see many celebrities & famous people on TV. Astrologers say that our name has some influence on our future. Any name also gives some vital information on behaviour.
I have found an interesting sequence. Every one of us is having our name starting with some or the other English alphabet from A to Z. E.g. Amit, Aakash ------ Zakir etc. I found that the people whose names begin with letters A are more successful in numbers than B and it goes on till Z. I don't want say that people like Zaheer Khan (Vs. Javagal Shrinath, Anil Kumble), Zakir Hussain (Alla Rakha Khan), Salman khan, Sachin Tendulkar (Vs Don Bradman) are unsuccessful but the ratio of people is more on prior side.
Just give a try and look for some people around you. You may find the similar sequence. In schools, colleges there are divisions like A, B, C. Have you ever noticed that students from 'A' divisions always ahead in rankings than other lower divisions?
I'm giving some more examples of famous people from different areas.
Amitabh Bacchan (off course Abhishek & Aishwarya are family members now)
Aamir Khan, Anil kapoor, Akshay Khanna, Asin, Akshay Kumar (His Real name is Rajiv Bhatia)
Atal bihari Vajpayi, Rajiv Gandhi, Babasaheb Ambedkar, Mahatma Gandhi (Popular as Gandhi), A P J Kalam, Javaharlal Nehru,
