Cricket @ Toronto

With the end of summer season, ends another wonderful cricketing season also. Here are some snaps to celebrate the memories of some of the great times we spent together.

bomb blasts - an act of foolishness

why don't the terrorists understand that blasting around cities is never going to achieve anything for them. Attacking unarmed and innocent people by remaining hidden themselves, not only proves their cowardice but also utter foolishness. The message they send is that they themselves are a loser and can't achieve anything with their will power. Such blasts will bring the Indians together and understand that the demands of the terrorist is unjust and definitely wrong. India, is not a country, which can be stopped with such stupid acts. Instead, they make us stronger and also help in garnering world support.

However, what deserves condemnation is not such foolish acts, but the behavior of our politicians. Even after so many acts, they fail to come together and pass stronger bills. They are still too busy in vomiting useless speeches, talking about elections, and making fake CDs.

I pray to GOD, Allah, Ishwar to bless some sense to terrorists and also to these politicians, so that they can clear the bills pending by 5 states to counter such stupid attacks and also bring a bill like USA-PATRIOTIC act in the center.

Chinese Lantern Festival

Went to CNE (Canadian National Exhibition) and Ontario Place to witness the grand Chinese Lantern Festival and the screening of a dinosaur movie at the IMax, the screen of which was a huuuuuuuuuuge one (3 storey high and ten times the size of a normal movie screen). It was an experience in itself to feel the big dinos from so close. The Lantern festival was so well built with many of the world's renowned architectures and kingdoms.

TCS Picnic 2008

This time we went o Magic hill for picnic. The place was not as good as expected, but still we enjoyed being in a large group. And I hit the hole in golf :D

Canada Day celebrations

Canada Day celebrations at Mississauga. I was amazed to see Shiamak Davar's group dancing on desi numbers on Canada Day. Overall, it was good fun. There were special rhythmic fireworks at night, shooting on the beats of a song. To witness this, there was a large crowd gathered at the Civic Center.

Pride Parade - Censor Cleared ones

Pride Week is an event held in Toronto, Ontario during the last week of June each year. It is a celebration of the diversity of the LGBT community in the Greater Toronto Area. It is the one of the largest organized Gay Pride festivals in the world, featuring several stages with live performers and DJs, several licensed venues, a large Dyke March, and the Pride Parade.

In 2004 the Toronto Star reported that 1,200,000 people lined the parade route. The festival is often touted as being one of the largest cultural festivals in North America and the 12 city blocks that make up the festival site is closed to vehicular traffic.

Here are the photos, which have been cleared by the censor ;-) for the rest, mail me.

Volleyball match

Went to Centennial Park's Beach Volleyball courts for some action packed games of Volleyball. It was a thrilling way to end our tech-fest week "Prevoyance 08" unwinding all techy-talks with ungeeky acts including random b'day bumps to Muthu :)
