THIS JULY!

BYE BYE THIS WEEK

It's posthumous fame for the humble chavanni. The 25 paise coin may not have 

been worth much in the market till last week, but since it was laid to rest by the govt, it has become an overnight hero.On Thursday, the coin, which came into being in 1950, was declared 'dead' by the Reserve Bank of India. The RBI issued a statement saying the coin will now "cease to be legal tender" in light of inflation. Since then, nostalgic stories and jokes about the coin have become a hot topic on social networking sites.

UNUSUAL THIS WEEK

This July will be a little different.  In fact, it is going to be a July that comes once in 823 years and bring cheer to those who look forward to weekends. July 2011 will have five Fridays, five Saturdays and five Sundays and numerologists and astrologers say such a July is rare,  as rare as once in 823 years. But, despite being rare, it may not have too much of a numerological significance for people, says numerologist Sanjay Jumani. He said, "It will just be fun to have more weekends as the month will have five Saturdays, five Sundays and five Fridays."
