"Holi"but"Bholi"??????

I think I will have a great time tommorrow that I have a holiday.You may be in question that why there is a holiday tommorrow ?But infact there is a leave for us that it is a day before "Holi"a Colors celebration in Nepal.So there is holi on Bholi(tommorrow).

Actually I am not rude for holiday before a Holi. I really enjoy the holidays but the leave before Holi is not so worthful one.According to my previous year experience that the Ballon attack with a dirty water is so terrible.Not only on the day of Holi But the celebration starts here before a week of holi specially here in Kathmandu.So What do you think is it a right way of celebrating before a week with a ballon of dirty water.And the last thing "HAPPY HOLI" but only bholi.

How many weapons do maoists have?

After finishing the counting of maoist weapon and combatants.The United nation Mission In Nepal's Chief Ian Martin had declared the numbers of weapons and Combatans of Maoist today.

According to the registration in seven different camp the numbers of weapon is 3428 and the number of combatants is 30,852.

According to him all of the wepaons and combatants for the first stage are registerd, photographed and issued with an identity card with a UN bar code.This may be positive point for the peace process but do the maoists has this much weapon only????

Lovers Days Out

What a day??Every where basically on the work there is a talk on the lovers day.Every body are planning for tommorrow that what to give and where to date with their lovers.But still i am alone here coz not have an intrest on it anyway Wish You all my visitors HAPPY VALENTINE both for couple and for the alone heart also.Here i have shared you something about Valentine day :
From WikiPedia
Saint Valentine's Day or Valentine's Day is on February 14. It is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other; sending Valentine's cards, candy, or donations to charities, often anonymously. It is very common to present flowers on Valentine's Day. The holiday is named after two men, both Christian martyrs named Valentine. The day became associated with romantic love in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.

The day is most closely associated with the mutual exchange of love notes in the form of "valentines". Modern Valentine symbols include the heart-shaped outline and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten notes have largely given way to mass-produced greeting cards. The Greeting Card Association estimates that approximately one billion valentines are sent each year worldwide, making the day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year behind Christmas. The association estimates that women purchase approximately 85 percent of all valentines.
In the United States, the marketing of Valentine's Day has tagged it as a "Hallmark holiday". A recent trend has been to refer to February 14 as Singles Awareness Day.

There is a friend in my Office who is from Madhes and he belongs to Tharu Cast.I used to ask him about the Madhes Violence some days ago .He told me that it is non of their business and he added that the violence was from the next party.But today when i am browsing i get a photo from the nepalnews that the Tharu community are on the floor with a Khukuri in their hand .I am bit confused that they named it as "Khukuri Rally".I am not writing against Tharu or anyother parties but this rally and Dharna have became a regular trend in Nepal.

Does GPK Hit the Nails on the Head ?

It's been more than Two weeks that the Terai is at Fire. To resolve this problem the eight parties are at talk from last two days. The talk is not at the end for some how but yesterday at the late night they declared it and there was a speech from the Prime minister Girija Prasad Koirala.He speaks on the behalf of terai people that the constitution will edit for Terai and the citizen of Terai.He also told that opportunities for the terai’s dalits ,women and children will preferred high.At last he told all the parties who are at strike to stop it.

US RoadSide Architecture

Saturday…..one day on a week. As previous Saturdays I tried to make this Saturday a wonderful one.
Around 12 noon at day I headed toward to Srijana fine Art college at Kamaladi where an exhibition is running.
A photographic exhibition by John Margoules from United States. He named the exhibition as AMERICAN ROADSIDE ARCHITECTURE.
If you are interested toward American culture probably the 20th century how it runs hot at that moment. Then you may take the flavors from photo at College of fine arts .There you may see the Fooding, Lodging and Gas’s stations photos of 20th century at the US. So If you are interested then you may visit and enjoy the photographs.

Motels
Photographer John Speaks:

As a photographer and writer I have spent nearly 30 years crisscrossing the continental United States in search of unique and typical examples of roadside and Main Street architecture and design. In traveling over 100,000 miles in a long series of marathon automobile trips, I have taken some 100,000 photographs of about 15,000 older buildings, signs, storefronts, and other commercial and civic structures. My 2003 Alicia Patterson Foundation Fellowship is allowing me to hit the road again in a series of four research trips in several regions of the USA to revisit many places I have not seen for decades. My objectives in these journeys are threefold: to see how places have changed; to record what remains of this individualistic "mom-and-pop" tradition in American commerce and how places I have previously photographed have evolved; and to make a record of the new omnipresent business chains which have homogenized the environment of America. This first report shows some of what I found in my first trip through the Southwest in over 3000 miles in 17 days. The Lone Ranger rides again.

Around from a week the most happening part of terai are at violence.Up to yet the the strike are not at control.Just from nepalnews i heard to listen that there is still curfew on those areas.
So,worried how long it goes ..........
from nepal news:The unrest in eastern Terai district due to the protests of Madhesi Janadhikar Forum (MJF) continued on Thursday as well.
The local administrations in Lahan and Janakpur imposed day time curfew in the districts on Thursday.
The local administration clamped curfew in Lahan bazaar from 7.00 am to 6.00 pm today. The local administration imposed 8 hour long curfew on Wednesday, but the curfew hour was extended on Thursday as demonstrations were held after the curfew was lifted on Wednesday.
The Forum has demanded that the interim constitution must be changed to include provisions such as ethnic and regional autonomy with the right to self-determination as well as elections to Constituent Assembly (CA) based on proportional representation system based on ethnic population.
The Forum also ruled out talks with the government saying the government called them for talks without doing proper homework to resolve their demands.
Similarly, the local administration imposed curfew from 10.00 am to 5.00 pm in Janakpur district on Thursday.
However, reports from these districts said protestors are continuing demonstrations in the districts defying the curfew orders.
Similarly, terai districts of Udaypur, Saptari and Biratnagar remained shut on Thursday due to the bandh called by the Forum.
So far, five people have been killed and dozens injured in the Terai unrest.

Winter's Evenings with Hotel Rwanda

Its already 6.15 pm when we reached Gopi Krishna Movies.We are there for a british film festival which was started from Jan 15,2007.It was launched by the british council,Kathmandu.
The first Show was the "Hotel Rwanda".We are bit late for the show thats why we didnot get the balconi's seat but anyway we managed it on the ground floor.But after the show the neck got terrible with pain.
With a strech neck i enjoyed the movie for 1 and half hour.It is a movie on war of ruwanda between Hutus and the Tutsi .A wonderful movie i ever had.I am so much flourished with the actor Paul who is the main hero of the show.But anyway I enjoy it much and suggest you to watch it once ..Here i want to share you some brief about it from hotelrwanda's official site.

The Rwandan conflict of the 1990s marked one of the bloodiest chapters in recent African history. The genocide was made all the more tragic by the fact that most of the world chose to ignore the conflict and the plight of the Rwandan people. While occasional reports about "tribal warfare" in Rwanda were carried by international news agencies, the horror of the conflict, instead of causing international outrage, seemed to be written off as another "third world incident" and not worthy of attention.
Over the course of 100 days, almost one million people were killed in Rwanda. The streets of the capital city of Kigali ran red with rivers of blood, but no one came to help. There was no international intervention in Rwanda, no expeditionary forces, no coalition of the willing. There was no international aid for Rwanda. Rwanda's Hutu extremists slaughtered their Tutsi neighbors and any moderate Hutus who stood in their way, and the world left them to it.
"Ten years on, politicians from around the world have made the pilgrimage to Rwanda to ask for forgiveness from the survivors, and once more the same politicians promise `never again,'" says director Terry George. "But it's happening yet again in Sudan, or the Congo, or some Godforsaken place where life is worth less than dirt. Places where men and women like Paul and Tatiana shame us all by their decency and bravery."
Wars have always provided fertile ground for the emergence of heroes and supreme acts of heroism by ordinary people. Rwanda was no exception. Amidst the horrendous violence and chaos that swept the country, one of the many heroes to emerge was Paul Rusesabagina, an ordinary man who, out of love and compassion, managed to save the lives of 1268 people.
Terry George had long been interested in doing a film set in Africa, but it was Paul Rusesabagina's story that finally brought him to the continent. "When my co-writer Keir Peirson introduced me to the story, I immediately knew I wanted to do it," says George. "I flew to Belgium and met Paul and learned of his life: how he became a hotelier, how he rose through the ranks of employees in the various Sabena hotels he worked in, and how he ended up at the Hotel Mille Collines in Kigali."

It was the remarkable human element of the story that struck a chord with Hotel Rwanda producer Alex Ho. "This story is very close to my heart, and it's the kind of story I really appreciate," he says. "It's about a normal man who, when prompted by his wife, is able to use his position to help others. In the course of doing that, he sets out on a journey that makes him a better man."

Craze of ekantipur.com

I am chatting with a friend from USA ,when he told me that ekantipur.com was not working.

After a while i used to chat with other friend from US. All these fellows were asking me about the website. I am confused thats why i check my self once .But it doesnt work.

Then i tried to collect some information about it with my media's friend .But they are also unknown about it.I think that there is some problem in the server and may be the technical team are looking for it. Really the kantipur has gained such a craze that in a while the demand got so.

Any way best of luck for ekantipur team that they may run their website properly soon.
