 After buying my first car I have hardly traveled or used my car which has the 3rd free service due on March this year(2010), so I decided to visit tourist spots near Kolkata where road conditions are good for driving and safe as well. Kolkata and surrounding places are slowly getting connected with good wide roads as National Highway Authority constantly making an effort to provide better road connectivity. Criteria of selection was minimum traffic, roads having divider which enables a smooth and safe drive and reaching and coming back from that place hardly takes five hours as I planned to travel at after-noon time and coming back by sunsets at evening.

 Obesity is something almost all of us experience after we reach wrong side of forty. An average Indian boasts (?) of a healthy pot belly. In fact it is rare to find a man who does not have a weight problem.
In scientific terms obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it may have an adverse effect on health, leading to reduced life expectancy and/or increased health problems.
Obesity increases the likelihood of various diseases, particularly heart disease, type-2 diabetes, breathing difficulties during sleep, certain types of cancer, and osteoarthritis. Obesity is most commonly caused by a combination of excessive dietary calories, lack of physical activity, and genetic susceptibility, although a few cases are caused solely by genes, endocrine disorders, medications or psychiatric illness.

 Yesterday I have visited CC2 after the opening on last saturday. Thought this
is the right time to visit and capture images of the mall before it
becomes crowdy on coming days. Took the other route from Saltlake side
and reached the place. The entrance and the basement parking facility are spacious
and huge. May be its because of the early days and crowd is very less.
Still I comfortably able to park the car with my very
in-experienced driving and parking skills. For your information the parking charge is free. Don't know how long this facility will be available.

 When I was young I got hold of a book called
‘Children's Encyclopedia'. One of the chapters , which dealt with cosmos,
deeply interested me. I decided I will know more about this when I grow up.
In 1986 there
was some excitement because Halley's comet returned after 76 years. A friend
called me up and asked me to come to Rajabajar science college saying a
telescope was being set up to view the comet. I was excited. When I arrived
there I saw a pipe like object standing .I later knew it was a 3˝ refractor
telescope. Although we tried a lot to locate Halley's comet that night we did
not find it because nobody had a clue where to look at the sky.

 I had a LIC Money Back policy which was done by my parents to save
income-tax 12 years back. As the agent was not known to me and lives far away
from my home, we were never in contact with that person after my father's
demise. But I kept paying the premium online in time . When I received the
letter from LIC on policy maturity, I found the main document required for the
whole procedure is the policy bond itself is missing.

 Car is something I was always passionate for from my very childhood. So when I finally got enough encouragement from my mother I started figuring out which car will fit my budget with maximum power under its hood. I was looking for a small but a powerful car to have the provision of speed on the highway when required with good mileage.
