TV Times

In present Indian society TV has became the main driving factor in people lives.. Gone were the days when families went on picnics and strolling through gardens .. it has become increasingly tough to accomodate these activities into hectic schedule of TV..The schedule is so hectic that it is difficult for all the members of the family to live harmoniously without fighting for the remote atleast once in a day..
I am so sad so say that this runs in my family also..me once upon a time ,victim of this diesease.

Especially the "star pariwar" i feel present a disgraceful picture of indian society and the indian women...
Many will say that these serial show women more powerful and dominating so it is good.But between the illicit affairs,the plans of sabotage,the mind games and "ekta kapoor" knows what not ,these good qualities of women becomes second fiddle..
Almost all the serials involves a huge tycoon family with their many millions, they will have equal number of secrets and problems. Big Bungalows as big as stadium ,women in expensive sarees(they are supposed to be at home for Gods sake) with huge amount of makeup plastered onto them , conspiring to bring down a rival family ...
Tell me how many people can identify with such setting ,it is most ridiculos in a country with most of the people stuggling to make both ends meet..
Then after the prime time is over the endless discussions about with whom the female protoganist will go and what is going to happen next ....is just so hopeless.....

Houte Route - Summary Post

It's a pretty popular walk from Chamonix (France) to Zermatt (Switzerland). In winters, it becomes a cross country ski route, but in summer, it transforms to a hiking route, which traverses through pretty high elevation, hence its called Houte Route (High Route). Unlike backpacking in the US, this backpacking was supposed to be much easier, as we were basically staying in hotels/dorms, and we didn't have to carry tents, sleeping bags, and food.    But, we were surprised how hard some of the hiking days were.  We were a group of 6 friends.  My wife (Mona) and I were the most "untrained hikers"; others in our group were more committed and better prepared than us. We expected to walk through Swiss meadows, mountain villages, hi-fi ing cows along the ways. Even though some days were exactly like that, around 1/3 of the trails were very tough and tested us physically and mentally.  Here is a very brief summary of our daily adventures on the trail. Day 1 : Chamonix ...

Walk in a Temperate Rain Forest

We marched along exhausted, wet, and worried, on a lonely trail in a densely wooded rainforest. It was getting dark; we were hungry. We have been walking in the rain for more than 3 hours and we expected to arrive at our campsite any second for the last 40 mins. My socks were wet, my backpack was weighing heavy on my shoulders, and I was ready to just crash on the trail.  Why torture ourselves by backpacking miles in unpredictable weather and challenging landscapes, rational people often ask hikers and backpackers. There is not one definite answer; there are so many reasons, and everyone has different personal ones. For me, I derive energy from the natural world whenever I am in a forest. Additionally, I truly experience living in the moment, all that matters is the next milestone, which path to take, how much water is left, do we have enough food and where is that damn campsite.  Out of mist of rain and dwindling dusk light, the sign board of Lewis Meadows campsite greeted ...
