Sex is no more a taboo subject in our society now. Especially the youngsters have been open towards it. Not just sex, but the way to express their love. We can see them showing it openly.
Few weeks ago there was news from City of Dharan that 7 couples were arrested by the police and they were suggested not to show their love openly in public. Most of these couples are doing their +2.
We can see many couples at Basantpur area sitting around the temples hugging and kissing. The local club started saying it indecent and threaten them saying they will capture those moments of couple and publish in news papers and noticed them not to perform indecent acts.
Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) has published the new load shedding timetable which will be effective from 29th December 2008. This has been the NEA gift to all the Nepali on the occasion of New year 2009. It is said that the time will increase in future. Nepal Government has already declared an Energy Crisis situation in Nepal.
View of Bagmati River from Google Earth. Kopundole – Thapathali
May be you guys are asking, why this is want to know where is the land of Bagmati River? Bagmati river is there and the water is flowing over it. Do you think what is seeing now is only the part of the river?
I live in Kopundole near the Bagmati river bridge. I have been seeing this river since childhood and I have an emotional attachment with this river. We used to go there to play swimming may be 20 years back. It was clean till that time, but look at the face of the river after 20 years. It is a holy river for all the Hindus as it flows by the Pashupati Nath Temple. If you show the condition of the river to some tourist, I am sure they will ask you, “Do you call this river a holy river”.
Any way the thing I want to talk today is not about how clean is river or why we call is Holy River or should we stop calling Holy River. This river has been attacked by ever one.
Being a fan of Rock music, I hate people who hate rock. Rock is not about long hairs, drugs and sex. Rock is that category of music which you need to feel. It is like fuel for life too. It gives you energy. Rock has been divided in many categories and sub categories and they have their own class and style of playing music.
Now-a-days we do not get the music that the rockers from 70’s, 80’s till mid 90’s created, but it is not dying. We may feel that hip hop and other kinds of music are taking the market. But they won’t make you feel what rock gives you. There are so many evergreen rock songs which I guess you will love till you get old. You will love to sing them.
When I heard this word “ROOM TO READ “, I thought it must be a library. I heard this word for the first time when it was going to donate two computers to “Pawan Madhayamic Vidhalaya”, Parasi which was established by my grandmother late Pawan Devi Shrestha. She has not just established this school, but she has also written a novel called “Pratigya” quite many years ago. We did not know that she is the first Nepalese woman to write a Nepali novel from mainland Nepal. Anyway, I will be writing about her soon in my blog.
Let’s talk about Room to Read. Well, we all must have to thank Mr. John Wood for his hard work, devotion and love toward educating the world to change the world. In his book “Leaving Microsoft to Change the World” he has written about all the hard times he had to faced, why he was inspired to leave Microsoft to change the world and how happy he was when he saw his dream in reality.
Initially, he wanted to help the school in remote areas of Nepal and established this organization. But now it has become a global organization which is working towards changing the world, to educate people, to change their life style and most importantly to make their life easier through good education. Many poor people from so called 3rd country like Nepal, Vietnam and African countries are benefited by this organization.
What is polymer note?
“Polymer banknotes were developed by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) and the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) and were first issued as currency in Australia in 1988. These banknotes are made from the polymer biaxially-oriented polypropylene (BOPP) which greatly enhances durability of the banknotes. Polymer banknotes also incorporate many security features not available to paper banknotes, making counterfeiting much more difficult.” – From wikipedia.org
A Rs. 10 Polymer Note
In February 2002, for the first time in Nepal’s history, Nepal Rastra Bank (Central Bank of Nepal) issued a 10 rupee polymer banknote. We were pretty much excited to see how a polymer note looks like. As the time passed by there were many issue regarding such kind of notes.
