I just had to put it down. While searching for a decent lens store online, I came across LensKart. The store says that the product will reach us in 72 hrs. In my case, it came in just 36hrs.
There might be a plethora of online options for all. But this one’s for India. Free delivery within the country. Discounts for the common man.
But beware, who are going for a lens first time, always try a trial lens at any lens store at your place; or you can come across questions like base curve… dia…. etc for your lens. Other than the usual “power”, every eye has it’s own BC & dia. It can be judged by the ophthalmologist. Make sure you get the right one. Try on a lens. If comfortable, buy one online after the trial.
The store is definitely worth it once you get your right details as the lens are offered at discounts, where as the lens centre at your city will charge you the full rate and also will have limited models. He will take the same time, if not more, to give you your lens pack after order.
Last time I bought CibaVision’s Air Optix Aqua from a local lens store (Udani, Bangalore), it costed me 1500/- and took about 3-4 days to get the order. LensKart charges only 1200/- and took only a day & half to deliver!!!
Full points to the online store.
I’ve been on the biweekly Acuvue Oasys earlier. It was a great option for long usage. The monthly Air Optix is almost as good as Acuvue Oasys. The 1 day Acuvue is not to my taste as the lens are extremely thin and tough to put in the eye. The Air Optix & Oasys retain their shape when on your finger, unlike the delicate 1-day Acuvue. This time, from LensKart I bought the monthly CooperVision’s Proclear to try out new models. Let’s see how it works.
Most of us must have heard of this bizzare murder-suicide. For those who don’t have an idea, the story goes like this… View full article »
The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility.
As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as “Euro-English”.
In the first year, “s” will replace the soft “c”. Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard “c” will be dropped in favour of “k”. This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter. There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome “ph” will be replaced with “f”. This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.
In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.
Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling.
Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent “e” in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.
By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing “th” with “z” and “w” with “v”.
During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary “o” kan be dropd from vords kontaining “ou” and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensi bl riten styl.
Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.
Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas
If zis mad you smil, pleas pas on to oza pepl

Letter from wife :
Dear Hubby,
I’m writing you this letter to tell you that I’m leaving you forever. I’ve been a good woman to you for 7 years & I have nothing to show for it. But, these last 2 weeks have been hell.
Your boss called to tell me that you quit your job today & that was the last straw. Last week, you came home & didn’t even notice that I had a new haircut, had cooked your favorite meal, & even wore a brand new pair of silk dress. You ate in 2 minutes & went straight to sleep after watching all of your games. You don’t tell me you love me anymore; you don’t want anything that connects us as husband & wife. Either you are cheating on me or you don’t love me anymore; whatever the case, I’m gone!!
Your Ex-Wife
P.S.: Don’t try to find me. Your BROTHER & I are moving away to West Virginia together! Have a great life!

Letter from wife :
Dear Ex-Wife,
Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter.
It’s true that you & I have been married for 7 years, although a good woman is a far cry from what you’ve been. I watch my games so much because they drown-out your constant whining & griping (too bad that doesn’t work). I DID notice when you got a hair cut last week, but the 1st thing that came to mind was ‘You look just like a boy!’ Since my mother raised me not to say anything, if you can’t say something nice, I didn’t comment. And when you cooked my favorite meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY BROTHER, because I stopped eating pork 7 years ago. About those new silk dress: I turned away from you because the $49.99 price tag was still on them, & I prayed it was a coincidence that my brother had just borrowed $50 from me that morning. After all of this, I still loved you & felt we could work it out. So when I hit the lotto for $10 million, I quit my job & bought us 2 tickets to Jamaica. But when I got home you were gone. Everything happens for a reason, I guess.
I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer said that the letter you wrote ensures you won’t get a dime from me.
So take care.
Signed,
Your Ex-Husband, Rich As Hell & Free!!
P.S.: I don’t know if I ever told you this, but my brother Carl was born as Carla (woman)………I hope that’s not a problem!!

A secure, memorable password is easy for you to remember, and hard for others to guess.
Everywhere you turn you’ve got to come up with a password to register for something or another. Whether it’s the dozens of web sites that require you log in to use them, or your ATM card PIN, or your wireless network login, how do you decide on a new password? More importantly, how do you remember it? View full article »

This site is a near-perfect replica of MS Paint (and works like that too) on the net. Right now, it’s supported by Firefox 1.5 , Opera 9 and Safari 1.
You can even save ur drawings.
Of course there are other online painting sites like Creating Online, PXN8, Fauxto(it even supports layers!!!) but Canvas Paint is an MS Paint duplicate!!!
If you can solve the world’s most daunting mathematical challenges, fame awaits. Fortune, too, if you want it. There are still maths mysteries waiting to be discovered.
Now, that’s krazy!!!
