The Good and the Bad at the moment!

Colours of love fuel Guinness dream

From G Manjusainath DH News Service Raipur:

Their love blossoms in myriad colours. Basant Jain and Anita Jain are living up
to their wedding vows with all sincerity but in a distinct fashion. On
recognising their distinctiveness of being a rare couple, they have now decided
to enter the Guinness Book of World Records. Basant and Anita have become the
identity of Rajnandgaon town. Around 19 years ago, the couple decided to dress
up in similar material, and they continue to do so even now. They have also seen
wide media coverage and criticism for their actions. For being the ‘couple with
a difference’, they found a place in the Limca Book of Records. “We are the only
couple in the world who have been wearing common dress material for the last 19
years. So we can claim an entry into the Guinness Book,” said Basant Jain.
Around
24 years ago, Basant Jain married Anita against his parents’ wishes. The couple
saw financial hardships in the first years, but it did not deter them. They
opened stationery stores in Rajnandgaon to tide over the crisis. It was during
this period that the idea to wear same coloured outfits struck the Jains . It
clicked and helped them prosper in their business. Majority of their customers
came to their shop to see the odd couple in common colours. Their three sons and
two daughters had to face caustic comments by friends about their parents. Jain
recalls being called ‘band party’ by his sons’ friends. Basant Jain informs that
they have more than 1,000 clothes tailored with common dress material. “People
invest in real, estate, banks, post offices, mutual funds and shares. But we
invested in dress materials. This is the property we have built in 19 years,” he
says

BAD: The bad is that how to get an image of the colorful couple which I could get to see in Deccan Herald print edition but can't get in the internet edition.

SEARCH: How to search for a colorful photo of the couple.

PICTURE: The picture posting gets on top though I want it here. Mallika is the crush of the day.

Relevant skill The one skill that will probably never go out of fashion is the skill to be able to acquire new skills BY VARALOTTI RENGASAMY "Ma, why do we have such long legs?" a baby camel once asked his mother. "So that we can keep our legs firmly in the desert sand and walk with ease," the mother replied. "And why the big hump at the back?" "We walk in deserts and may go days on end without water. We store our water there in that hump, dear." "And what are these thick, long eye-lashes for?" "To prevent the desert sand from hurting our eyes especially when there are sand storms." Another dozen questions in the same vein were rationally answered by the mother camel. And then came the unanswerable last question: "Then what the hell are we doing in the Mysore Zoo?" Most of our students, especially those coming out of engineering colleges, are like these camels — imprisoned in the wrong place with irrelevant skill-set...

Just want to enclose a sound, where I was reading something about shyness in Tamil to my son (recorded on 25-12-2010 ) questions.amr

Reading quotations for motivation. Good or Bad?

Image
after all these mad scribblings are about good bad and searches! Reading too many quotations sometimes is like over eating. The mind becomes unclear and wanders restless...(sometimes becoming very blank) It is the stage when I feel: 'reading quotations is useless' Some time ago I made an attempt to have just four quotations ready - just like some instant energy giver - to motivate me any time. Searching quotations, with the aim to short list for instant energy giving - the mind was blocked - making myself to quote: "reading quotations is of no benefit" At this stage I thought, let me have one quotation - just one - to motivate me any time....... I got this one: Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
