Mary Hopkin - Those Were The Days Lyrics And Video Watch the Original Video Those Were the Days below lyrics. Put away your troubles and blast back to your younger days with Mary Hopkins Song those were the days. Lyrics of the song - Once upon a time there was a tavern Where we used to raise a glass or two Remember how we laughed away the hours And think of all the great things we would do
Chorus:
Those were the days, my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way La la la la la la La la la la la la
Then the busy years went rushing by us We lost our starry notions on the way If by chance I'd see you in the tavern We'd smile at one another and we'd say
Those were the days, my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose Those were the days Oh, yes, those were the days La la la la la la La la la la la la
Just tonight I stood before the tavern Nothing seemed the way it used to be In the glass I saw a strange reflection Was that lonely woman really me?
Those were the days, my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose Those were the days Oh, yes, those were the days La la la la la la La la la la la la
Through the door there came familiar laughter I saw your face and heard you call my name Oh, my friend, we're older but no wiser For in our hearts the dreams are still the same...
Those were the days, my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose Those were the days Oh, yes, those were the days La la la la la la La la la la la la

The Sukhoi Su-30MKI Fighter Aircraft The Pride Of India - India -Know about the Su-30 MKI fighter aircraft – On September 2, 2009 a Bell 430 crashed into a forest in Andhra Pradesh. It was carrying YSR Reddy, Andhra Pradesh's Chief Minister. Su-30MKI's were deployed from a nearby airbase to locate the crash site. After a few hours into the operation, Su-30MKI's were able to locate the crash site using their Infrared Sensors. This news just made me curious about this Sukhoi and came to know about this world class fighter aircraft which will be fully made in India by Indians in future.

The Sukhoi Su-30MKI Nato Reporting name is “Flanker-C" Operational Since 1996 Su-30MK fighter is a twin engine military aircraft. This fighter is a development of the Su-27 (Flanker) family, designed by the Sukhoi Design Bureau of Moscow and is manufactured by the Irkut Corporation. This fighter is Capable of carrying nuclear weapons. The Su-30MKI was jointly designed by Russia's Sukhoi and India's Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL). It is expected that by the year 2010 the first totally India-built Su-30MKI will roll out from HAL Nasik. In the year 1996, first time India ordered these fighters, and signed a US$1.462 billion deal equivalent to Rs 5122 crore with the Sukhoi Corporation on 30 November 1996 for the delivery of 50 Su-30 aircraft. In 2000, another agreement was signed allowing the license production of 140 Su-30MKIs in India. The deal combined license production with full technology transfer and hence was called a 'Deep License'. The Indian Air Force has received 98 Su-30MKIs as of July 2009 and it plans to have an operational fleet of 230 MKIs by 2015 A standard Su-30K is estimated at US$34 million. A Su-30MKK variant is estimated at US$53 million. A Sukhoi 30 MKI aircraft crashed on 30 April 2009 in the Pokhran region of Rajasthan after it took off from Pune during its routine sortie, killing one of its two pilots. This has been the only crash of the MKI since its induction. The Su-30MKI is a highly integrated twin-finned aircraft. The airframe is constructed of titanium and high-strength aluminium alloys. Indian Su-30MKI fighters are to be fitted with the Brahmos cruise missile, jointly developed by India and Russia. Brahmos has a range of 290km and a warhead of up to 350kg. The aircraft's integrated electronic warfare system includes a Tarang radar warning system, indigenously produced by the Indian Defence R&D Organisation (DRDO), and systems supplied by Israeli manufacturers. It is a two-seat, dual-role strike fighter for all-weather, air-to-air and air-to-surface deep interdiction missions; closely comparable to F-15E Strike Eagle. Su-30MK, where "MK" stood for "Modernizirovannyi Kommercheskiy" (Modernized Commercial) The Su-30MK is able to perform some very advanced maneuvers. They include the well-known Pugachev’s Cobra and the Bell. The aircraft enjoys all the benefits of two member crew. Because of two members the work load is divided, between two members, The first pilot flies the aircraft, controls weapons and performs manoeuvring dog fight, while 2nd pilot employs BVR air-to-air and air-to-ground guided weapons in long-range engagements, monitors tactical environment to ensure situational awareness, and performs command-and-control tasks in group missions. In practice, the front seater is the pilot and the back seater is the "Wizzo", the WSO (Weapons Systems Operator). The pilot flies the aircraft and handles air-to-air and some ATG weapons, as well as countermeasures. The WSO takes care of the detailed aspects of navigation, ground radar mapping & target designation, setting up delivery solution for ATG weapons, designating for guided bombs/missiles, ECM, and so on. There are many tasks which overlap; either pilot or WSO can do the job depending on circumstances. The aircraft can be flown from either seat, however only the front cockpit driver can operate the helmet mounted sight (Sura) as sensors are only in the front. The rear cockpit has a HUD repeater. Su 30 is capable of detecting and tracking up to 15 air targets while doing this it can attack four of them. Su 30 also has autopilot ability at all fight stages including individual and group combat employment against air, ground and sea surface targets. Automatic control system is interconnected with the navigation system which ensures Route flight, target approach, recovery to airfield and landing approach in automatic mode. The aircraft is fitted with a satellite navigation system (A-737 GPS compatible), which permits it to make flights in all weather, day and night. The navigation complex comprises high accuracy SAGEM integrated global positioning system and ring laser gyroscope inertial navigation system. The Su-30MKI has a range of 5,000 km with internal fuel which ensures a 4.5 hour combat mission. Also, it has an in-flight refueling (IFR) probe that retracts beside the cockpit during normal operation. The air refueling system increases the flight duration up to 10 hours with a range of 8,000 km at a cruise height of 11 to 13 km. Su-30 MKIs can also use the Cobham 754 buddy refueling pods

BJP – August 2009 Analysis- Jaswant VS Advani Judgment by RSS- After defeat in the election, everyone in India is watching the drama, what is happening in the BJP party. Reality Views by sm- The biggest problem Today BJP is facing that who will oppose and fight elections
opposite Prince Rahul Gandhi and Congress in the year 2014. Congress has successfully in there traditional way created the young leaders. There formula is simple if your father is Chief Minister make his son also chief minister in the future. Now what happens with BJP is that BJP leadership has no authority, Remote control is with the RSS If RSS leaders are happy with you, there are chances you will get good post in the BJP party. Last month everyone saw that how BJP leaders L.K. Advani and every one went to the RSS Chief Bhagwat to save there chair and discuss the future of BJP. The time has come BJP should openly accept that, Yes RSS is the God of BJP, Like everyone knows that, Sonia Gandhi is the Goddess of Congress Party. Once BJP accepts this truth, it will become easy for RSS as well as BJP to have discussions openly. As Jaswant Singh was never related with RSS in the past, so when he wrote the book, Spreading the views which were opposite to the RSS leadership he was immediately Disowned by the RSS and BJP. On the other hand same thing happened with L.K. Advani, but Advani is former member of RSS, so he was not punished. Just think there are 2 boys both boys have committed same crime , and mother of one boy is the Judge, what she will do , she will see that more punishment is given to the other boy and not her boy, and majority mothers will do this, on paper it sounds good to say we love justice, but when in reality one faces this problem , the mother and family everyone forgets about justice , and everyone tries to see that kid is saved from the punishment .He should be given one chance. Now the chapter of Jaswant is finish, but this is India, we will not be surprised if in future Jaswant Singh may join BJP again. Once the money is made from the book, just say sorry and everyone will forget everything and he will get pardon from RSS.
