You can't rush art

There is a scene in Toy Story 2 when the old man repairing Woody tells the impatient toy collector Al, "You can't rush art."

I believe its very true.

Canon Powershot SX1 IS

We have like 18 pages of detailed review of Canon SX 1 IS
http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canonsx1is/
Compared with :
- Canon PowerShot SX10 IS
- Sony DSC-HX1
- Panasonic Lumix FZ28
This will be a good read if you are planning to buy a super zoom.
Things that are important:
- CMOS (new technology) vs CCD sensor (well surpisingly CCD noise is better)
- Video 1080p (HD)
- RAW vs JPEG

Bear Grylls overdone himself with the Kamikazi knot

If you have seen Grylls' Man Vs Wild series on Discovery Channel, you already know he has done some really krazy things. But, he really overdid himself in the Ireland Ipe trail, rappelling the cliff on a Kamikaze knot (knot also known as 'sheepshank'). People please don't try doing this, it is really dangerous.

Details of the knot:

Neem Ka Ped

If you watched Doordarshan, you will remember the serial "Neem ka Ped", and the soothing title track. (Please find links below that will take you back the memory lane)

Neem ka Ped Title track
"Mu ki baat sune har koi"
Sung by Jagjit Singh
Lyrics: Nida Fazli
Music: Jagjit Singh

"It's a story of a semi-bonded labourer, Budhai Ram - played(rather, lived) by Pankaj Kapoor, under a Muslim village zamindar. This Muslim landlord is under property dispute with his minister brother-in-law. As circumstances turn out to be, Budhai Ram gets caught between this fight of pride and property. The bone of contention is also the small piece of land on which he has planted a Neem tree as a kid.... now the story starts... "
Story: Rahi Masoom Reza (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rahi_Masoom_Reza)

Friends,
I am not getting the verse that went something like this... "kal meri neendon mein chip kar, jaag raha tha jaane kaun..."
