Pain of writing self-review
Every six months HR keeps sending reminders- "please remember to submit your self-review". May be it is their job to remind me that I am part of a company not just my team. No matter what and when, I always found it to be a painful experience to review myself.
I'm good at this, I'm not good at that, blah blah blah.... it means nothing in the end anyway. I know what I'm good at and I also know what I'm not so good at; everybody knows, my manager knows too... I'm not sure what to make out of other's comments, if there are any...
No matter what I write or what I babble I'm going to end up with what management wants... then why document all this? Why every six months?
I'm not sure if there will be a change in the system? ever? I wish there was somebody who can write my review as a service ;)
For noew, I guess I've to live with it... and go back to writing my review :(

China to control Olympics weather
Apparently China is planning to force rain ahead of Olympics so that they can bring sunshine to the opening ceremony. How I wish they make it easier to afford so we can use it in June here...
From a news article(Link): Chance of showers during the 2008 Beijing Olympics: 50 percent. But Chinese meteorologists have a plan to bring sunshine.
The meteorologists say they can force rain in the days before the Olympics, through a process known as cloud-seeding, to clean the air and ensure clear skies. China has been tinkering with artificial rainmaking for decades, but whether it works is a matter of debate among scientists.

Fun ideas for a rainy/gloomy day
So I was thinking what I can do on a gloomy weekend day...
There are couple things like hanging out with friends, doing sketching...
Wondering what else we can do with a group...
Any ideas???

Three little words :)
Funny quote for today's 70's show:
Fez to Kelso: Kelso, why don't you tell Jackie where you go. That way she can find you when she wants to do it.
Kelso to Fez: Fez, the foundation of a good relationship is three little words: I don't know.
What're you doing? I don't know.
What're you thinking about? I don't know.
Who's that under you? I don't know.
It's bulletproof man.

Corrupt state of Indian legal system...
An article forwarded by a friend...
Kulkarni, the only remaining witness in the infamous BMW case catches both prosecution and defense lawyers on camera colluding to buy off the witness.
We know it always happens, but when you actually see it, it's even more depressing. The accused, Sanjeev Nanda is the son of a rich arms dealer, who 8 years back, ran over 8 people and killed them driving his BMW.
The video of the expose is on NDTV.
