Slumdog Millionaire
Story: Movie based on a General Knowledge(GK) based reality show that happens in india. Contestant is Jameel Ahmed, a tea serving guy in a famous call center in Bombay, this guy reaches the show and wins 2 million indian rupees. This guy is originated from Bombay slum area and the movie shows how the each and every question in the show is related to his life. Movie also shows the struggles he faced to reach to that level. Ofcourse its difficult to put the emotions in blogs :) but every thing is screened very nicely. Director showed lot of originality about bombay and the people who live in that area also showed how Bombay changed from time to time. Its a excellant movie to watch. Imdb rating in 8.6.

Site Map
The Sitemap Protocol allows you to inform search engines about URLs on your websites that are available for crawling. In its simplest form, a Sitemap that uses the Sitemap Protocol is an XML file that lists URLs for a site. The protocol was written to be highly scalable so it can accommodate sites of any size. It also enables webmasters to include additional information about each URL (when it was last updated; how often it changes; how important it is in relation to other URLs in the site) so that search engines can more intelligently crawl the site.
Sitemaps are particularly beneficial when users can't reach all areas of a website through a browseable interface. (Generally, this is when users are unable to reach certain pages or regions of a site by following links). For example, any site where certain pages are only accessible via a search form would benefit from creating a Sitemap and submitting it to search engines.
This document describes the formats for Sitemap files and also explains where you should post your Sitemap files so that search engines can retrieve them.
Please note that the Sitemap Protocol supplements, but does not replace, the crawl-based mechanisms that search engines already use to discover URLs. By submitting a Sitemap (or Sitemaps) to a search engine, you will help that engine's crawlers to do a better job of crawling your site.
Using this protocol does not guarantee that your webpages will be included in search indexes. (Note that using this protocol will not influence the way your pages are ranked by Google.)
Google adheres to Sitemap Protocol 0.9 as dictated by sitemaps.org. Sitemaps created for Google using Sitemap Protocol 0.9 are therefore compatible with other search engines that adopt the standards of sitemaps.org

WIll the Nuclear Deal with US help Inida?
For the countries like india, which are so called "developing" countries, power is the main problem, if anybody wants to invest in india by constructing big company, power is needed, which is currently a big problem. Many industries are struggling now becuase they are not able use their man/machine power to its full capacity because of the non availability of power. I have seen even many software companies are strugging because of inadequate power supply. Main reason for chinas development is manufacturing revolution. It has lot of industries. India also has lot of man power and minerals. Main reason is we dont have power to use these resources.
Second reason being a responsible world citizen, india has to start producing power from clean and renewable sources. In many indian states, still coal is the main source to generate electric power, which indeed emits lot of co2 and causes global warming. As the world moving towards acting strong on global warming, its good initiative from indian side.
We need more power for farming, farmers are not getting enough power to produce more output. Many indian states gives 5-9 hours of fully utilizable power a day, and that too half of the time during day and rest half during night time. This is very bad news to the country, we have to remember that in india, still large number of people depending on farming.
We need energy for many reasons, so I would say nuclear power is the only solution for all these problems. We cannot depend on the hydral power becuase it cannot produce energy to 100% capacity during summer becuase many rivers are dried up during that time. We should not depend on coal generated energey it's not good for global environment.
Obviously there will be lot of controversies about this agreement. Main reason is in india if a party does a proposal, opposition blindly opposes it (except reservation bills). In this case communist parties worries are useless. We have to remember that scientists like Abdul Kalam supported this agreement. There will be obviously some restrictions imposed, no one gives anything for free.
One particular point in the agreement says, "if india does a nuclear test, then this agreement will be cancelled". We already made enough nuclear weapons and we dont need to do no more tests. Moreover india herself is inching towards aquiring the plutonium cleaning technology. In 10 years we will be nuclear independent. So we dont need agreement anymore. So I support Manmohan Singh as an educated indian citizen.
