Swami Vivekananda &Bangalore!

Never knew till I attended the Talk by Mr.Sriram,Former Member Technical KEB that Swami Vivekananda suggested to JRD TATA while sailing in a ship along with him  towards Chicago for his famous lecture,    that opening a Science Institute is a must for Bangalore.Thus was born the world famous TATA INSTITUTE(now the  INDIAN INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE)

Not only that .Swami Vivekananda had also urged Walchand Hirachand while travelling with him in a train  during his Chicago trip  to bring in  Aircraft technology  in Bangalore which resulted in the birth of Hindutan Aircrafts(now HAL)!

Both  JRD and Walchand Hirachand  had asked it seems "OK.But how to go about it?"

Swami Vivekanand  had directed them to Maharaja Krishna Rajendra Odeyar.

Rest is history.

The Herbal Product that our President bought.

"Festival of Fragrance"  organised today  by Prakruti  Ads in Bangalore at  INST ITUITION OF ENGINEERS Hall was a big disappointmentThere was such a good coverage in the Press that  we went eagerly there only to find  just  two stalls!One was that  of the KARNATAKA SOAPS &DETERGENTS  and the other that of GLO HERBALS from Hyderabad,the Distributors of the  famous  Stevia,a genus of about 240 species of herbs and shrubs in the sunflower family (Asteraceae), native to subtropical and tropical regions from western North America  to South America and several other exciting herbal  products.

Mr.K.S.N.Murthy,Chief Mentor Glo Herbals  with his frank and excellent descriptions of the Herbal products enlightened us .They really have an amazing range of Products for the health -conscious.

When he proudly informed that President Pratibha Patil evinced keen interest in the Herbal Products and bought  73 packets of Stevia for her  staff at Rashtrapati Bhavan who are diabetic,we were really impressed..

Dhoni's cool hasn't worked in Australia!

Going down the memory lane ,some aggression like that displayed by Sunil Gavaskar,Ganguly need of the hour.

Can Sehwag show that aggressive leadership at Adelaide?(Having a word with Harbajan may help!)

Indian cricket fans are losing patience.

They will lose interest in cricket if  Indian team keeps losing so badly!
