We had been planning to do "The Green Route trek" - that's what it is called, from last few months and then finally the day has come and we started for our journey to Sakleshpur - also referred as "Poor Man's Ooty".</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #4c4c4c; line-height: 34.6667px; text-align: justify; word-spacing: 4px;">We read some news about the ban on trekking in western ghats. But we were not sure if it is really banned. Before the conversion of the railway line from meter gauge to broad gauge along the Sakleshpur railway line in Karnataka’s Hassan district, it was one of the most sought-after trek routes.</span></span><br />

Next morning, We talked to some local people and We came to know "The Green Route" Trek is banned for sure. But, still we went to the donigal Railway station, 8 kms from Sakleshpur, and tried asking for permission from the station master. We didn't get the permission but found out a hack to fulfill our quest for this trek.</span></div>

In the middle of the nowhere - enchanted with the beauty of Western ghats we were caught by RPF patrol team. When we saw them coming towards us in their track inspection Vehicle, we were like dumbstruck. There is a saying in Hindi "Marta kya na karta" (When in deep crisis, one resorts to all means---fair and unfair). We gathered our courage and started performing "The Great Indian Drama" Live in front of the RPF personnels, to rescue ourselves. Somehow we managed to save our ourselves from landing up in Jail. They left us with a warning and we returned back from that point. One thing to remember is - trekking is banned in this route and you might land up in jail if you go for trekking here.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; line-height: 34.6667px;">Bisle ghat has one more interesting place - The Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal Ridge. The ridge is the point in the mountains that determines which way rivers or streams are likely to flow. It is said that this stone was laid by the British. British officers on their topographical survey of the Western Ghats found that it was the point where rain water splits and reaches two different seas. The rainwater from the series of hills and mountains to the left of this point flows towards the west drainage basins that feed into the Arabian Sea while water from the eastern side drains into the Bay of Bengal.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The rail trek is full of stones from the start till the end, So my suggestion would be to wear a good trekking shoe if you are going for this trek. We reached Dudhsagar Waterfalls at around 4:00 PM. It's about 14 KM from Castle Rock to Dudhsagar, but you will never feel tired if the weather is good and It was good for us. After reaching to the waterfall you have to trek around a kilometre to reach the view-point.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Last year we went to pondicherry for a weekend trip, just after Christmas (26th -28th of December 2014).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
It all started with "Yaar ! Is weekend toh kahin ghumne jaana hai ? Kuch plan kar bhai !".(Yaar ! Let's plan for a weekend trip.) We were planning for a trip on 25th December for the coming weekend. Friends put forward few suggestions and ultimately we decided to go to pondicherry and the main reason for this decision was the availability of tatkal tickets in the only train from Bangalore to Pondicherry (16573/Yesvantpur-Puducherry Weekly Express). Thanks to IRCTC and everyone else who didn't book a ticket in this train otherwise tatkal tickets vanish in few seconds.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After we zeroed-in on a destination, we started asking friends and colleagues to join for the trip and finally 4 of us were in for the trip and sadly, the numbers were the same as it was at start.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It was peak season for tourists in Pondicherry and It was very difficult to get a hotel room booking done a day before your trip, after calling so many hotels and guest houses, we were able to get a place for our stay in Pondicherry.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Our train was from Yesvantpur, but instead of going there, we boarded a bus from Silk Board Junction to Hosur and then boarded the train from Hosur Railway Station and I guess it was the same time when Super Star Rajini's movie Lingaa was released and we saw a big multi storey size poster of the Super Star:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We boarded the train from Hosur on 26th December at around 10 PM, played cards for 1-2 hours and then slept. We reached Pondicherry next morning at 9 AM, as usual train was a bit late. (Thank god we reached !)</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We had our breakfast at <a href="http://www.tripadvisor.in/Restaurant_Review-g659792-d2647563-Reviews-A2B_Adyar_Ananda_Bhavan-Pondicherry_Union_Territory_of_Pondicherry.html" target="_blank">Adyar Ananda Bhavana</a>, had good and tasty South Indian cuisines.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Then, we headed to our hotel and it was <a href="http://goldensuninn.com/" target="_blank">Golden Sun Inn</a>. It's a nice hotel conveniently located in the city not very far from the popular tourist spots.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Next two days we were going to roam in and around pondicherry and so, we rented out two bikes. It's easily available in normal season, but Pondicherry was buzzed with tourists, all the two wheelers were booked and it took us half an hour to get the bikes. There are so many shops renting out bikes in Mission Street. Two documents are required to rent out a bike - one, ID proof and other, Driving License.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Weather was awesome and so, our trip was. We visited almost all the popular locations - Gandhi beach, Auroville beach, Auroville, Matrimandir, Aurobindo Ashram and Paradise beach.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It was good to see the churches and shops decorated and lighted so well in Evening as if they were all set to welcome the new year. While walking in the streets of Pondicherry we saw a group of local artists performing on folk songs from Ramayana.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Food was good as well in Pondicherry. We had pizza at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/cafextasi" target="_blank">Cafe Xtasi</a> and pizza was good. The big oven where they baked the Pizza was in front of the restaurant. We had dinner at one restaurant at Bussy Street (don't remember the name as I am writing this post after around two months). Streets of Pondicherry have many options, go and try out the food at any restaurant. We had a glass of masala milk and ice-creams at one of shops near Gandhi Statue.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Paradise beach was main attraction for our trip and it much more beautiful than we expected. Tourism Department of Pondicherry run motor boats in the backwaters to ferry the tourists to and fro the Paradise Beach. To and fro charges were Rs. 150 per person.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They offer other water sports activities like kayaking, water sailing, camping at beach side and etc. , but due to the heavy rush all these were not running. On that day they were just ferrying the tourists to and fro from the beach.</span></div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We thought of getting tatkal tickets for our return journey, But, we were not able to succeed in that and then we booked tickets in KSRTC. Finally the two day trip was over and we returned the bikes, checked out from hotel and boarded a KSRTC bus from Pondicherry to Bangalore.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
P.S. Pondicherry had been renamed to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puducherry" target="_blank">Puducherry</a> 20th September 2006.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">In HTML, images are defined with the <i><img></i> tag.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="code_snippet">
<img src="url" alt="some_text"></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The src attribute defines the url (web address) of the image.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The alt attribute specifies an alternate text for the image, if it cannot be displayed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you want to show an image, you write something similar to this in your HTML :</span><br />
<br />
<div class="code_snippet">
<img src="html5_sticker.png" alt="HTML5 Sticker"></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">But, sometimes you may want to show an image on your webpage but you don't want to link an external image file. In that case, you can directly embed your image into the HTML without having to link to an external file.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The idea behind it is that the browser interprets the image file in encoded format. So why not we directly put the encoded data in the src attribute of <img> tag. One of the advantages of embedding the image directly into the HTML is Portability.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">There are so many online Base64 Image encoder available on the web. Just google it and you can get a list of online converters.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><a href="http://www.base64-image.de/" target="_blank">Base64 Image</a> is one such tool which I have used sometimes.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Following is the image tag with src attribute as base64 encoded stream instead of external url/location.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Eden Gardens’ 150<sup> </sup>years celebration could not be
better than this. No one would have thought that this day will be written in golden
letters in the history of ODI cricket. Cricket fans, who were watching this
match from the stands, will cherish this day for their lifetime. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Returning from injury, Rohit Sharma played a fabulous inning
of 264 in 173 balls in 4<sup>th</sup> ODI against Sri Lanka on 13<sup>th</sup>
November, 2014. He was not out until the last ball of India’ inning was bowled.
He falls off the last ball of the innings trying to play a big shot. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

such a big total, Guests could garner a meagre 251 and lost by 153 runs. India
leads 4-0 (undefeatable) in the 5 match ODI series.</span></div>

<strong><span style="color: #1b2426; font-weight: normal; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">XSS is the hacking technique that leverages

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background: white; color: #252525; line-height: 115%;">An attacker can use XSS to
send a malicious script to an unsuspecting user. The end user’s browser has no
way to know that the script should not be trusted, and will execute the script.
Because it thinks the script came from a trusted source, the malicious script
can access any cookies, session tokens, or other sensitive information retained
by the browser and used with that site. These scripts can even rewrite the
content of the HTML page.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

occurs when user input is stored on the target server, such as in a database,

to retrieve the stored data from the web application without that data being
made safe to render in the browser.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

हे प्रिये चलो मैं आज तुम्हे कुछ और ही बात बताता हूँ<br />
जिस दुनियाँ में सपने बस्ते हैं उस दुनिया की सैर कराता हूँ<br />
ना बंदिश है ना पाबंदी ना तीखी नज़रें हैं दुनियाँ वालों की<br />
बस एक मैं हूँ और एक तुम और सपने हैं दिलवालों की<br />
<br />
उन बागों की शैर करें जहाँ फूल प्यार के खिलतें हैं<br />
उस क्षितिज के पास चलें जहाँ ज़मीन आसमान से मिलतें हैं<br />
उन झरनों के पास चलें जो संगीत प्यार का सुनाती है<br />
उन तारों के पार चलें जो रोज़ हमें बुलाती है<br />
<br />
कितनी प्यारी है ये दुनियाँ जो की सपनो मे रहती है<br />
किसी और की नही यहाँ बस अपनी मर्ज़ी इसमे चलती है<br />
<br />
प्यारे सचमुच हैं ये सपने क्यूंकी यहीं हम तुमसे मिलते है<br />
ये सपना ना जाने कब सच हो बस इंतज़ार इसी का करते हैं<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">About 45 minutes after the launch, Mars Orbitor Mission (MOM) Satelite, <i>Mangalyaan</i>, separated from its launch rocket and launch rocket has placed the Orbiter very precisely in an elliptical orbit around Earth, which makes the <i>First Stage</i> successful.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Now, Mangalyaan, is expected to go around the Earth for about a month, to attain the escape velocity. So that it can break free from Earth's gravitational pull. Only then Mangalyaan will begin it's <i>Second Stage</i> of nine-month long journey and is expected to enter in the Mars Orbit in September, 2014.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Some quick facts on Mars Orbital Mission :</span><br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The launch vehicle used is PSLV C-25.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">This is 25th mission of PSLV and fifth in XL configuration.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The weight of Mars Orbiter Satellite is 1,337 kg.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The satellite will be placed into a 250 km X 23,500 km elliptical orbit.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Time from launch to injection of Orbiter into its trajectory was about 40 minutes.</span></li>

I had heard about blogs few years back. Since then I wanted to write my blog. But, for some reasons like, what to write, how to write etc, always stopped me.<br>
<br>Finalizing an address for the blog is most depressing thing. Address of your choice will be unavailable and to think of a name, which would be available will take a lot of time.</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">"<span class="GEE3RVNDBY">Sorry, this blog address is not available</span>" will vanish your enthusiasm/excitement for blogging, unless you come up with a really unique and out-of-box kind of word/words. BTW, my blog name is not so out-of-box, but it's in Hindi (my mother-toung).</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">This blog-name thing is one of the significant reason, I am coming up with my blog a bit late.</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Logged in to blogger so many times earlier, but I was not getting a name which I like. <br>
<br>
But, this time I was determined to start my blog and So friends, this is the start of "meri-jigyasa.blogspot.com".</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Edit: Now, I have a custom domain "www.merijigyasa.com" for my blog.<br><br>
Thanks</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br>
