back to the old number!
[info]dilip
About an year ago, I had posted that my waist has increased from 32 to 34 and that soon I will try to get it back to the old number.

Well, as expected, I didn't do anything physical to get it back down. But then, it's now back to 32 all by itself!!!

Book review

Review of Wanderings with Poetry in The Tribune.

(no subject)

I have 3 rolemodels -> Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Jaisingh Chohan and Benjamin Franklin.



And Jaisingh is getting married and very sadly I will not be able to make it because of certain reasons... Sometime I will make up for this.


Wanderings with Poetry - Preface
[info]dilip

All of us discover time and again that we do breath an occasional faint thought that somehow has crossed our minds, captivating us. And when we decipher that experience into words, we realise we have written poetry.


Many a time I chance upon little events, trivial realisations and vague imaginations that I feel to give a form by enunciating them. All the while, I end up roaming where I never been. I have learnt to respect whatever that can be thought, never to reject the basis for any viewpoint and never to denounce what cannot be personally embraced. Meanwhile, as I still continue to hear what can be written, here is some verse for you...


Wanderings with poetry is my second book and I see myself evolving with it. I have tried that the ideas that are splashed around here have a collective vibrant charm. Individually each of these verses may sometimes appear inane and simple but they together can turn out to be carelessly beautiful like a long refreshing saunter across the familiar and the unknown. Few are pure play with words, few others are mere experimentations and the rest are those hard truths that happen to hit anyone in the face who ventures out to seek his meaning. Hope you enjoy this collection, set in vast colourful Indian playfield.

Save Nanda Road - Lakshman Rau Boulevard
[info]dilip

The most beautiful boulevard of Bangalore. This road is right next to my Bangalore house in Jayanagar. The road is few kilometers long and there are wide parks (more than 20 I think) on either side of the road and residential layouts next to the long parks. The most beautiful place to live in South Bangalore (excluding certain scenic places in outer fringes of South Bangalore and suburbs).


The aesthetic value is immense. Many Bangaloreans drive down here during the weekends just to walk in the greenery here.


And there is now a danger threatening this place. A overhead metro rail is planned to come up here. There sure are other alternative routes over lesser beautiful areas. But these routes are not being pursued because it is cheaper to cut down trees across a vast stretch of greenery than to plan the route through roads where commercial shops are on either side.


Please voice your concern. And hope that it will be heard. This road was the vision of Lakshman Rau and this place is rightly called Lakshman Rau Boulevard. This stretch Bangalore is a social heritage site.

Our lighting innovation is covered in yesterday's (25th June) Indian Express newspaper. You can find the article in frontpage of Pune Newsline. Here is the screenshot of the e-paper.

Update: Herez the link to the article in Indian Express National Edition.

New logo for our NGO

World Bank Development Marketplace Award 2007
[info]dilip
Elaborating on previous post, we (Harshad Kamdar, Yogesh Kulkarni and myself) won $20,000 for our innovation to provide lighting solution to those who do not benefit from grid power and for whom solar and wind power is not feasible.

One of the highlights was the visit of President of India, Abdul Kalam. In the few minutes he spent checking different innovations personally, one can easily figure out the immense knowledge he has. Also heartening is the growing involvement of likes of FICCI in India which organized the Knowledge Forum where the quality of discussions were considerably practical and good.

You can check our initial proposal here which survived to end up in the final 20 out of more than 2500 others. But now there are many modifications are making to it as we are learning on the go. Currently we are doing more research in finetuning our product and have implemented it on trail basis in couple of places. Later, we will start fabricating. Already we are getting few enquiries and even calls from one TV channel to take footage of the unit. But we need to further work more on it before our NGO can start to sell the units.

We will put all the design details in public domain, as we do not want to derive any monetary profit. I will be more than happy if anyone can use the design to serve better than us.
