Deodar or Himalayan Cedar (Cedarus Deodara) is a sacred tree from higher Himalayas. The name is derived from Dev (divine) and daru (wood) or "wood of the Gods". Deodar grows at altitudes between 1500 metres to 3200 metres. Deodar forests can be seen at Mussorie but this picture was taken at Dhanaulti, a small sleepy place 25 kms. from Mussorie.

lovely! each pic is a healer.
ReplyDeleteOh yea, there's some great jokes on cheema's blog:
(I'm pasting here for you)
1. The US has made a new weapon that destroys people but keeps the building standing,. Its called the stock market
2. Do you have any idea how cheap stocks are ?? Wall Street is now being called Wal Mart Street
3. The difference between a pigeon and a London investment banker . The pigeon can still make a deposit on a BMW
4. What's the difference between a guy who lost everything in Las Vegas and an investment banker ? A tie
5. The problem with investment bank balance sheet is that on the left side nothing's right and on the right side nothing's left.
6. I want to warn people from Nigeria who might be watching our show, if you get any e mails from Washington asking for money, it's a scam. Don't fall for it
7. Bush was asked about the credit crunch. He said it was his favourite candy bar
8. The rescue bill was about 450 pages. President Bush's copy is even thicker. They had to include pictures
9. President Bush's response was to meet some small business owners in San Antonio last week. The small business owners are General Motors, General Electric and Century 21.
10. What worries me most about the credit crunch, is that if one of my cheques is returned stamped 'insufficient funds'. I won't know whether that refers to mine or the bank's.

Thanx Uma! And the jokes were too good. I watch the Jay Leno show sometimes - a couple of the times in the year mebbe. :)
ReplyDeleteHi rm! On Monday I have a deadline so will probably just catch the last hour or so of trading. It's the best time to get a sense of direction I think.
ReplyDeleteHi Uma! Take care of your deadline meanwhile we'll try to keep the market orderly :)
