New7Wonders of Nature: Bangladesh is in Top

When I am writing this post (January3, 2008; 11:37 am) the top two places of New 7 Wonders of Nature Nominees are held by Bangladesh. Cox’s Bazaar is in 1st place and Sundarban is in 2nd place. [source] Thanks to all of you, who made this possible.

All my readers are familiar with the page Vote Cox’s Bazaar and ShundorBon of my blog from October 2007. Before creating that page I prepared a poster for supporting Cox’s Bazaar and Sundarban for New7Wonders of Nature Nominees and placed that on my personal website. When I first involved myself with this campaign, I had never imagine that Bangladesh will be the top listed after several months. Of course it is our credit to show the world that what we can do. Thanks to all the Bangladeshi and people from other countries who made this possible.

Now onward, the task is more difficult. We’ve to make sure that Bangladesh will held her position in the top list. So people keep casting your vote for Cox’s Bazaar and Sundarban. It is our duty to keep Bangladesh in the top of the list of the nominees.

Happy New Year 2008!

Wishing all my readers a Happy New Year! This bright New Year is given to us to exist each day with zest, to day by day development and try to be the highest and the best with the extension of faith and the best wishes! As the new year blossoms, may the journey of your life be fragrant with new opportunities, your days be bright with new hopes and your heart be happy with newer dreams come true! Happy New Year!

A Father-n'-Son Eid

Today we celebrated Eid in Bangladesh. Unlike the other year’s Eid, this Eid is special to me. It has been years since my father celebrated Eid with us. The reason of his unavailability was his job for which he has to be stay aboard. And he used to not getting his vacation during Eid. This year all four members of our family enjoyed the Eid. Thanks to Almighty Allah for this great oppertunity.

To day me and my father went to Dhanmondi Eidgah at morning to participate in Eid-ul-Adha saalat. After that whole day we were busy to process the sacrificed animals and distributed the meat among the relatives and the poor people. Our home was packed with our relatives after the noon. And who were not able to come, conveyed their greetings by phone. Two of my cousins were with us from just after the Eid Saalat. But above all, it was a special father n’ son Eid to me. I can’t express the feelings of having my father among us in this Eid. It’s just GREAT!! Thanks to the Almighty again.

Though after half a day work I am tired now, I have managed some gap to write a post in my blog. Hope all Muslims will enjoy this Eid pleasantly. Eid Mubarak!!

Some "Men-Women" facts

SUCCESS:
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

HANDWRITING:
To their credit, men do not decorate their penmanship. They just write.
Women use scented, colored stationery and they dot their “i’s” with circles and hearts. Women use ridiculously large loops in their “p’s” and “g’s.” It is a royal pain to read a note from a woman. Even when she’s dumping you, she’ll put a smiley face at the end of the note.

BATHROOMS:
A man has at most six items in his bathroom – a toothbrush,toothpaste, shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap, and a towel.
The average number of items in a typical woman’s bathroom is 437. A man would not be able to identify most of these items. Continue reading Some "Men-Women" facts

Annoying SMSs from Mobile Operators

Let’s start with a story of an alien. The alien was very much excited about his new findings on a trip to Earth. “The people on Earth no longer talk to each other using their mouths,” it reports; “They now communicate with their fingers by typing into a tiny toy.” Like the other countries, SMS (Short Message Service) became more popular than the voice call in Bangladesh when the mobile operators first lunched the SMS concept.

Sometimes SMS from a friend will make you laugh or SMS from family can give you a warm comfort. SMS can lighten your moments or can give you a sudden relief. SMS from a dear one is always welcome. But what about SMS from the mobile operators themselves? Several months ago, mobile operators used the SMS service for promoting their new services. Number of SMSs sent by the operators at that time were about 5-or-6 sms/month. This number has been tremendously increased within last few months. In our home, we are using mobile services from two operators: GrameenPhone and AKTEL. In my GrameenPhone contact number, I receive almost 4 sms/day whereas AKTEL sends about 2-3 sms/day on an average. So if I receive say 7 sms/day, about 50% of that is sent by the operators themselves!

These things (to receiving operator’s SMSs) were boring before, now it becomes disturbing. And the operators are not bother this disturbances. Every time my cell gives me a SMS alert and after opening the SMS, I find that it is another promotion or advertisement of one of their new services. Now it seems torture to me. You like it or not, you have to read their SMS, at least you’ve to open it! Can’t they stop this type of rubbish activity? If they want to advertise their services they can use the media. I am pretty sure about their solvency of doing that. Why are they tormenting us? By the way I am not sure, whether only I am suffering from this disturbance or everybody like me is also suffering?
