Hi Reader,
How about having a home in a ISLAND called ICELAND and which is immensly HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amazed ????? Its possible now, as one of engineering wonders have been in built in DUBAI.
We all have heard a lot about palm islands in dubai, which is home to many of BIG names in the world now.
On similar lines, there are World ISLANDS made in dubai, which is a even bigger project. This project that big that, builders were out of sand(present in sea bed).
"Questions are never stupid"
One might be wondering how can a country like dubai be out of sand stock, so for there knowledge, we cannot use desert sand to build islands, as its properties are lot different than coastal sand, and even if try using, it would spoil the natural environment.For more info, read your 7th class book :P
Like PALM islands, WORLD ISLANDS can also be seen from space.. waoooooooooo...

Difference between HP and PS
Hi Reader, I have seen people getting confused over PS and HP, and i was no exception ;)
HP stands for "HORSE POWER" and PS (German: Pferdestrke = horse strength).
1 PS = 0.73549875 kW = 0.9863201652997627 hp (SRC:- SAE-American Society of Automotive Engineers).
So, both are nearly same.
Have Fun.

VMAX launched in india
So finally all the craze and excitement is over as yamaha came out with VMAX as their surprise package for india. For last month and so their were talks about yamaha launching something really cool in india. So people like me were expecting them to get a 250cc doing some 20-30Ps. But this launch is not 20Ps but 20Lk :( :( .
Anyways, VMAX is a monster, as i read somewhere today "Porsche for Bikers :P".
But how many they are going to sell, how big is indian superbikes market? Both R1 and MT01's combined sale is nearly 150 till now, which costs some 12lk. And this one is some 20LKh. I suspect hardly 30-50 bikes is a big number.
Tech-Specs:-
So for every 1 HP u need to spend 10,000 Rs. But the bad thing is that, a US citizen has to spend only 18,000K($) some 9LK(nearly half of what it costs in india) for owning the beast . Anyhow, the future of bigger bikes seems to be better in india. Till then wait and watch(john riding the big machines) :) :)

h2O Sucks.
Hi, Reader
H2O and O2H is common routine for the most of people of this world. Something simile has been started in mine life also, H2O(HOME TO OFFICE) and then Office to home. This continues for long 5 days, followed by relief of two days.
But all our teenAge we wait for this time to come, when we can earn of our own and spend accordingly. This sounds very interesting at 16, but now more of annoying. Have i said some thing wrong?, probably yes! .There is no problem with H20. This is we only who are making our H2O filthy.
I believe we can always add some sweetenr's to it and more importantly as per our taste :P. Some other activities such as dance classes, music lessons, travelling, reading the unread, writing something( we always wanted to), cooking, social working, future plannings(i do a lot of it :D), painting, shooting, swimming or some other games or anything else u always wanted to try.
People!, come out and this is the right time to do it, make the most of it, untill u get married and get trapped again :P. Best of luck, friends.
Your valuable comments are always welcome.
Thanks.

Ninja and India
Bajaj, once known for ideal family Scooters, jumped into bike market and were able to grab a good market share also, with their hotshot pulsar series. They are constantly improving and trying to provide something fresh in market. Then came the biggest surprise of Ninja getting launched in india, with Auto-Expo 2008.
Then internet was filled with lots of news about ninja, predicitons about prices and lots of other stuff reagarding KTM also.But, its been more than a year, when the news of "kid ninja's"(Ninja 250)launch came into the market. Every month or so some news is published saying, we are expecting its launch very early :P. Anyways, fingers are still crossed, i expect its launch to be prior to feb, 2010, before the next AutoExpo.
And importantly, Unlike what Bajaj had planned earlier the baby Ninja will not be assembled in India.So the cost will increase upto 2.5 lakh, i know its a setback for people like me, who were not buying anything else, just waiting for ninja and were well mentally prepared to spend 1.5-1.8lkh.
But anyways, lets see what happens next and when i get to drive my dream bike since childhood(the time at which i did not even know, what "cc" means :P, and i was not aware of any other bikes, lolzz)
