Jammu Kashmir Ladakh - Roads to better Tourism
Jammu - Kashmir – Ladakh
Roads to better Tourism
Travelling down the city centre, Bob wondered if he could self drive; the smooth, macadamised roads of Srinagar city cajoled him to get feel of the silky tarmac. Roads over ages have been inspiring avid travellers to take long drives alone and with the loved ones. Moving out on weekends to country sides or rushing over to the office without a bump throughout the week is another charm of city life.
Road based tourism is one of the fastest growing and most important niches across the globe; for tourism industry it has proved to be like veins for the human body. Road based tourism has brought economic fortunes to remote and eco-friendly areas in entire India particularly in south and south east. Government and private bodies of such tourist destination where tourism is a major source of revenue to a large portion people, meet every infrastructural challenge to make it marvellous for the visitors. Some of the man made marvels have now become a major attraction for the travellers in such places. Mughal gardens in our state are benchmarks set for development of the manmade marvels perfectly blend with the serenity of the nature. Present time recreation places such as Royal Springs Golf Course, Tulip garden, Zabarwan Park and Badam waer in the heart of Srinagar city have become a mark of niche tourism.
It's proved, that tourism flourishes at places with better air and road connectivity; in recent years quality tourism in Kashmir has boomed by frequent daily domestic flights from Delhi, few from Mumbai and weekly flight from Dubai has raised hopes for revival of international tourism. Black topped roads, long bridges; flyovers through the cities, roadside parks and way side trees with fragrant flowers are few of the ways of making cities look well planned and attractive for the visitors. Beautification of the tourist places must be a regular practice , primarily when daily arrival of tourists is increasing compared to previous seasons; in-spite of the political upheavals in the state.
Cycling in Kashmir used to be a favourite sport of foreigners, viewing pair of cyclist on the boulevard is now just an image of yesteryears. Cycle repair shops in Dalgate had regular visitors to hire cycles during summers. Now such visitors prefer to do mountain biking in Ladakh where tour operators have special bikes for this sport. Upgraded roads of Srinagar city have brightened the chances of operating cycle tours for the tourists in summer time .
According to a report it is expected that the tourism industry will lead the world out of the current economic recession at least by next year. The Madrid-based U.N. World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) has projected that the number of tourists worldwide will increase from the current 900 million to over one billion in 2010 and possibly 1.56 billion by the year 2020. The ‘PATA Tourism Forecasts 2009-2011', says that international tourist arrivals to India this year will exceed 5.5 million. International arrivals to India will grow to over 5.9 million in 2010 and cross 6.3 million by 2011, the report adds.
The share of J&K from the international arrivals to India is certainly minimal compared to Rajasthan, Delhi, UP,MP, Kerala, Bihar, Orissa - other states and UT‘s of India; infact today J&K does not even list in the top 10 highest tourist receiving states of India; predominantly due to the ongoing Kashmir crises that has branded "Paradise on earth" into "destination of unexpected". A miniscule share of international tourist to Kashmir is yet encouraging since the visitors arrive here despite the advisories and frequent clashes in the valley with its live telecast worldwide.
As far as the domestic tourism is concerned, it has become a saviour for the tourism in the state. In India majority of the people want to be on a tour during summer holidays, when entire sub-continent simmers in torrid heat, Kashmir sets to be on top of the choice list of every young and old. People may curtail their lavish lifestyle yet touring is a habit which is hard to resist for avid travellers; with a slight compromise on standard of luxury or seeking short haul holiday destination in present economic scenario.
In our state 20 km off the national highway mostly brings you on to the zigzag roads of hilly areas where the roads are in pathetic condition. Roads leading to some tourist destinations of the state like Yousmarg , Doodh-Pather, Mansar ,Sanasar, Suru and Zanskar have a large portion either un-metalled or full of ditches and troughs. The snooty visitors usually curse the local bodies and the tour organiser; they also spread a word to other visitors about discomforts of the road.
Of late the transport sector in the valley has remained scarce; with hardly any state owned international standard coaches on the roads, some tourists usually find it amazing to observe no service of conducted tours for the famous tourist destinations. Private transporters mostly have the vehicles on bank loan that makes their situation precarious in badly hit tourist season. In such conditions role of state transport authorities for upgrading road transport on tourist sectors gets equally essential like other infrastructural development.
Tourism may not be the prime factor in state GDP ; it certainly is a linchpin for the state economy and its image making . All other sectors must put a cohesive effort to strengthen the tourism industry of the state which will result in development of their respective sectors immensely.
Kashmir has a beautiful face and elegant body, of course immortal; that's what Almighty has bestowed us with; this charm and eternity would radiate with add-on of manmade marvels. Tourists today look for more than the natural beauty; it's the time of theme parks and high-tech facilities. Tourism receiving markets have to deliver better facilities for a memorable experience of visitors; that even projects smart marketing, sharp branding and a sweet goodwill.

Action figure villain?
Hey everyone
so my son likes action figures, especially minimates. if you don't know what minimates are, they can be summed up marvel characters that are pose able that stand 2 inches tall.
does anyone know a good brand of action figures that have some villains he could make them "battle?" like monsters or bad guys that are similar in size (2 inches) or a little bigger that are pose able.
thanks
There are some great 2" robot villain minimates from the upcoming Iron Man 2 movie coming out in March. You can pre-order them here: http://lukestoystore.com/irman2simi.html

Tennis Racquets. A present day marvel
As we all know, tennis racquets are essential to a tennis game. Second only to the ball.
Earth shattering revelation I realize, but an crucial point to make!
In the older times, where tennis used to be much more about the finesse of the individual than the engineering associated with the gear the person wielded, tennis racquets had been made out of wood.
Nowadays they are created nearly completely out of composite materials such as Carbon Fibre, Fiberglass or Graphite. Various organizations have gone a step further, but more about that later.
Head size is the single most critical attribute to contemplate in a racquet, and is basically how large the hitting region.
All the tennis racquets possess a sweet spot in which the strings deliver the most power for the minimum degree of effort. This is really a tennis player's favored region of a racquet, and it is larger on racquets with bigger heads. Thus, larger racquet heads generally have larger sweet spots, giving you much more power - but at the expense of control.
The power racquets are ideal for novices because they typically play with shorter and lighter strokes, allowing the racquet to do all of the challenging work. Poor things!
Even so, if you are an amateur with a lot of energy and power (otherwise referred to as "Ripped!"), you might prefer to consider giving the larger head racquets a miss, and start using a medium sized head targeted far more toward controlling your shot.
The GT frame, exclusive to the Babolat tennis racquets like the Babolat Aeropro Drive Plus, is a braided graphite/tungsten hybrid material that reinforces the framework at key points to minimize torque and boost accuracy. This reinforcement material firms the racquet whilst not adding weight to the framework. It's a unique system that can help to eradicate one of the most significant problems discussed - the loss of precision that goes with the greater power.
Heck! This is what Nadal has!
With all that said however, the string pattern of your racquet also plays a very big factor in the power vs control argument.
The string pattern of your racquet is calculated by way of the amount of vertical and horizontal strings. Open string patterns have less strings, with 16 x 19 being a widespread pattern. This gives you much more control because the tennis ball embeds itself within the strings.
Closed patterns have far more strings and provide greater power by driving the ball away from the racquet.
It's sufficient to give you a headache thinking about it all!
Fortunately though, the main tennis racquet businesses have already been working very hard to try and make things less complicated for everybody.
The Babolat Aeropro Drive Plus for example, employs something called...wait for it.. WOOFER Technology!
Now just before you start barking up the wrong tree (hey, MY article, MY poor humour!), let me describe what this means.
Actually no. Their particular marketing blurb details it far better than I possibly could;
"Woofer is the first dynamic technology which makes the frame as well as the strings interact when striking the ball. Woofer delivers 10% extra power than conventional racquets, and ensures that the strings retain their energy longer. It enlarges the sweetspot area for every racquet size. This technology enables 25% more contact between the ball and the strings for optimal control, feel and increased spin."
So there you have it. Modern technology at its very best. In a tennis racquet. Makes you want to get one just to hang it on your wall!
Click here for an in depth review of the Babolat Aeropro Drive GT Plus.
