After a little break from new releases , finally Sony announced about new DSLR with DSC-H50 . It’s 9.0 megapixel Cyber-Shot & with powerful Carl Zeiss® 15x optical zoom lens.

There is one impressive feature about it’s LCD Screen which is 3-inch tilting with scratch-resistant, UV hard-coat finish. Generally we get to see 2 /2.5 inch LCD but this one is little more , but that means it will consume more battery also .

Other noticeable feature are Noise reduction is now a user-selectable option, with high, low and standard settings,D-Range Optimizer & HD component output for viewing photos on a compatible HDTV set.

It’s scheduled for May-2008 from SonyStyle with cost range starting at 400 $ , adding accessories with cost more like HD cable etc.

Getting your paypal fund was little hassle & there were some sub channel ways which bloggers tried to cash their paypal fund in India like getting US bound Credit card & etc , but no 1 was safe & some got freeze pay pal a/c due to legal issues .

Now ,paypal fund can be withdrawn from your Indian bank a/c legally .

Login to your PayPal account.
Click the ‘Profile’ subtab on the Account Overview page.
Click the ‘Bank Accounts’ link in the Financial Information column.
Click Add.
Fill out the Add Bank Account form.
Click ‘Add Bank Account’.
You are now able to withdraw funds from your PayPal account to this bank account.

“State Bank of India , Bank of India, Canara Bank, Union Bank of India, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, ING VYSYA Bank, UTI Bank, Standard Chartered Bank, HSBC, Citibank are the participating banks.

It takes 5-7 business days, but may take more time, depending on your bank’s policies.

No, there are no minimum withdrawal amounts or maximum withdrawal amounts. However, a non-verified PayPal members can only withdraw US$500 per month.

For withdrawal amounts of more than 7,000 Rupees are free. For withdrawal amounts of less then 7,000 Rupees, there will be a fee of 50 Rupees.”

So finally a good relief to get money from your own personal Indian bank a/c. Although, there is already visa credit card withdraw facility is there but I hope this 1 is little fast & transaction charges are low.

Janmastami Celebration by kids

Rahul — Tue, 04 Sep 2007 09:00:30 +0000

Today is Lord Krishan’s birthday & celebrated as Janmastami.

I was in my neighborhood where some kids & their parents organized Janmastami celebration with some arrangements. They put one “handy” filled with curd ,honey & chocolates & tied on string . Two men holded from opposite side.

Now ,kids have to stand on each other’s shoulder & climb & hit the handy & break it. but as you can see they are liitle one & can’t bear injury if they fall while doing this formation,so parents do hold them up & help to break it away. It was fun to cheer up them & try luck who can bring it down ,LoL.

here are some photos of them enjoying the fun.

The African Queen(1951)

Rahul — Sat, 04 Aug 2007 09:47:24 +0000

The African Queen’s story is woven around a village located in German east africa in wayback 1914 . Opening scene with Samuel with her sister Rose doing prayer song with locales. They do missionary work & live happily .

Village having sideby river on which Captain Charlie (Humphrey Bogart) sails his boat named “african queen” & provide mails & other supply to live to them. One day Germans attack village & vanish it with fire . Poor heart Sam dies in shock . Charlie & Rose bury him & left village in boat.

During travel while chatting Charlie talks about German gunboat named “Empress Louisa” which patrol around lake & block british support. Hearing this Rose advice him to make torpedo & attack to gunboat to help their british counterpart. But, hard part is reach towards gunboat , they have to pass German security point. To make it more hurdle , journey also involve huge & dangerous rapids in their river way, so Charlie hesitate to follow the plan, but then agrees later.

Then their thunder journey follow the tracks with bullets from germans , crocodiles , rapids . Meanwhile it also shows how hard to handle Charlie’s african queen with releasing steem from boiler & other problems. Rose helps him & their rommance starts. After long time they reach lake’s nearby channel. But , due to mud their boat stops , for which they both tow by themselves to african queen to pull out of mud. Those scenes were really good.

And finally ,god also help them by rain & their boat comes out of mud ,pushing it towards their target. Rose & Charlie prepare torpedos,fits into boat & start moving towards gunboat in night.But, due to thunderstrom their boat sinks & they captured by gunship crew. Gunship crew ask them how they reach here , what is there motive , when Charlie & Rose tells them about their mission , crew laughs & order to hang them. When crew start hanging them , Charlie ask them to marry , they agrees. During this , gunship moves over sunken african queen which hits it with torpedos & whole gunship sinks.

Rose & Charlie escape luckily .

Movie is really good particularly their journey in lake , their rommance ,survival & good acting both lead actors.

I will rate it 8/10.
