New Found Spine or Mass Wake Up Call?

Banks, bonuses and bailouts – busted? Is this a new found spine for the President? Or, is it a reaction to the wake-up call he got from Massachusetts? Whatever it is, I don’t see the bank executives shivering in their boots.

Bing Adds Impressive, Advanced Recipe Search
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWAYdY5qYgI

Microsoft’s strong reply to Google search is BING (But It’s Not Google). Like the name, Bing is unique. One other new feature just added to Bing is ‘Recipe Search’. Visit www.bing.com and start typing any ingredient that you like. I searched for ‘Chicken’. Watch the left section named ‘ALL RESULTS’ and select recipe link. Hope, [...]

My Telangana

నేను తెలంగాణావాదినే. నా తెలంగాణ కోసం నేను ఏం చేయడానికైనా సిద్దమే. కానీ ప్రత్యేక, వేర్పాటువాదిని కాదు. నాకు ధమ్ముంది. ఆంద్ర పెత్తనం నా ముందు పనిచేయదు. ఆంధ్రవాడి మీద నేనే ఎదురు పెత్తనం చేయగల చేవ ఉంది. నేను మీసం మెలేసి.. తొడగొట్టి మరీ చెబుతా… తెలంగాణ మీల్స్ అని ఆంద్రలో హోటల్ పెట్టి మరీ అమ్మగలను.నా తెలంగాణను ఈ లుచ్చాల చేతిలో పెట్టడం నాకు ఇష్టం లేదు. మరో.. నిజాం పాలన నాకొద్దు. నా తెలుగు జాతి ఉమ్మడి సొత్తుతో ఇద్దరేసి ముఖ్య మంత్రులను.. పదుల సంఖ్యలో మంత్రులను మేపడం.. నా జాతి సొత్తు ఎక్కువమంది నాయకులకు దోచిపెట్టడం నాకు ఏమాత్రం ఇష్టం లేదు.

Palm Pre Plus (and Pixi Plus) review

As a Palm lover, I can’t wait to post this excerpt for Pre Plus/Pixi Plus. I have been using Palm Pre from Sprint for last 4 months and I have been enjoying every moment of it. I still think IPhone is cool but it is a rip-off from AT&T. I can do pretty much every thing that IPhone can and still save $1500 over 2 yr.

Why Telugu Land is Called Andhra Pradesh? (Restored)

There is no conspiracy behind calling ourselves Andhras. We all are Andhras, we all are Telingis, and we all are Telugus. The new definition of Andhra to represent Kosta and the new definition of Telangana to represent nine districts of Nizam Telangana is a fabrication of politicians intending to create a wedge between the Telugu tribe.

Indira Gandhi: The Insecure

By sheer stroke of luck, in 1983 — during the AP Assembly election campaign at the dawn of NTR’s Telugu Desam — I happened to see Smt. Indira Gandhi from less than 50 yards away. While her motorcade passed us, she was waving at the crowds from inside her car. Despite my personal dislike for [...]

This news is at least 10 days old. But it is important enough to share with you. [This story is a bit of an extension on the post that was lost earlier: "Is Geithner Goner?"]
This guy’s name is Stephen Friedman. While he was the Chairman of NY Fed, he oversaw the bailout of Goldman Sachs [...]

Seth Myers on SNL: NBC Kills its Second Wife

When you put right analogies to a story, we all say, “Hmmm. Isn’t that right?” This particular is like that of many daytime soap operas in US. Even better analogy is that it is like a Telugu flick where the hero gets entangled with two wives. How does this drama unfold and how it ends?

Discussion: Is a Degree from an On-Line College Worth?

I did not start this site to discuss the pros- and cons- of Telangana state. It is just one of the issues, which is divisive, and beyond any one of our control. Hopefully, separate Telangana state issue will not be the issue that defines the content of this site.
One of the reasons I started this [...]

Dr. C. Narayana Reedy has recently weighed in on the Telangana issue. He stated that progress is only possible through small states. The statesman that he is, he urged people not to indulge in using harsh rhetoric against people belonging to another region.
