Good Read - Speech by Thomas Friedman

Speech by Thomas Friedman in the New York Times....

"When we were young kids growing up in America , we were
told to eat our vegetables at dinner and not leave them.
Mothers said, think of the starving children in India
And finish the dinner."


And now I tell my children:

"Finish your homework. Think of the children in India
Who would make you starve, if you don't?"

Logic Always Works

This is a real story that happened between the customer of General Motors and its Customer-Care Executive. A complaint was received by the Pontiac Division of General Motors:

"This is the second time I have written to you, and I don't blame you for not answering me, because I sounded crazy, but it Is a fact that we have a tradition in our family we have Ice-Cream for dessert after
dinner each night. But the kind of ice cream varies so, every night, after we've eaten, the whole family votes on which kind of ice cream we should have and I drive down to the store to get it. It's also a fact
that I recently purchased a new Pontiac and since then my trips to the store have created a problem.


You see,every time I buy a vanilla ice-cream, when I start back from the store my car won't start. If I get any other kind of ice cream, the car starts just fine. I want you to know I'm serious about this question, no matter how silly it sounds"

"What is there about a Pontiac that makes it not start when I get vanilla ice cream, and easy to start whenever I get any other kind?"

The Pontiac President was understandably skeptical about the letter, but sent an Engineer to check it out anyway. The latter was surprised to be greeted by a successful, obviously well educated man in a fine
neighborhood. He had arranged to meet the man just after dinnertime, so the two hopped into the car and drove to the ice cream store. It was vanilla icecream that night and, sure enough, after they came back to the car, it wouldn't start.

The Engineer returned for three more nights.

The first night, they got chocolate. The car started. The second night, he got strawberry. The car started. The third night he ordered vanilla. The car failed to start. Now the Engineer, being a logical man, refused to believe that this man's car was allergic to vanilla ice cream. He arranged, therefore, to continue his visits for as long as it took to solve the problem. And toward this end he began to take notes: he jotted down all sorts of data: time of day, type of gas uses, time to drive back and forth etc.

In a short time, he had a clue: the man took less time to buy vanilla than any other flavor.

Why?


The answer was in the layout of the store. Vanilla, being the most popular flavor, was in a separate case at the front of the store for quick pickup. All the other flavors were kept in the back of the store
at a different counter where it took considerably longer to check out the flavor.

Now, the question for the Engineer was why the car wouldn't start when it took less time. Eureka - Time was now the problem - not the vanilla ice cream!

The engineer quickly came up with the answer: "vapour lock". It was happening every night; but the extra time taken to get the other flavors allowed the engine to cool down sufficiently to start. When the man got vanilla, the engine was still too hot for the vapour lock to dissipate.


Remember : Even crazy looking problems are sometimes real and all problems seem to be simple only when we find the solution with cool thinking. What really matters is your attitude and your perception.

Grandfather - Story

Grandfather

A hat-seller who was passing by a forest decided to take a nap under one of the trees, so he left his whole basket of hats by the side.
A few hours later, he woke up and realized that all his hats were gone.
He looked up and to his surprise, the tree was full of monkeys and they hat taken all his hats.
The hat seller sits down and thinks of how he can get the hats down.
While thinking he started to scratch his head.
The next moment, the monkeys were doing the same.
Next, he took down his own hat, the monkeys did exactly the same.
An idea came to his mind.
He took his hat and threw it on the floor and the monkeys did that too.
So he finally managed to get all his hats back.
Fifty years later, his grandson became a hat-seller and had heard this monkey story from his grandfather.
One day, just like his grandfather, he passed by the same forest.
It was very hot, and he took a nap under the same tree and left the hats on the floor.
He woke up and realized that all his hats were taken by the monkeys on the tree.
He remembered his grandfather' s words, started scratching his head and the monkeys followed.
He took down his hat and fanned himself and again the monkeys followed.
Now, very convinced of his grandfather' s idea, he threw his hat on the floor but to his surprise, the monkeys still held on to all the hats.
Then one monkey climbed down the tree, grabbed the hat on the floor, gave him a slap and said.
"You think only you have a grandfather"

Socialism

A very nice way to put it...
The late Adrian Rogers said, "you cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."
This man is truly a genius!

An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had once failed an entire class.
That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.
The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan".
All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A.
After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B.
The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy.
As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.
The second test average was a D! No one was happy.
When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.
The scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.
All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.

Could not be any simpler than that.

Carbon Foot Print

India, Nov. 7 -- Diya Kalati has made a Rs 80 investment towards the climate change cause.
The 14-year-old has bought a bucket and given up on the fancy two-way shower in her bathroom. Her aim is to bathe with a bucket of water and not use the shower anymore.

This, she says, will help her reduce her carbon footprint on the planet. Several people are waking up to their carbon footprint and looking at it more and more as an individual quest rather than a global issue that ought to be fought on international platforms.

"They told me about my carbon footprint and ways to reduce it in school and I thought it would be cool to at least try it for a bit. Also, reading about the summit at Copenhagen and India's role in it has helped me realise how immediate climate change is," said the Versova resident.

no2co2.in, the only Indian carbon footprint calculator website, allows you to calculate your footprint based on parameters like electricity consumption, cooking fuel, meat and dairy consumption, local and national travel.

It then provides you with solutions to reduce your footprint. The global average carbon footprint is four tonnes per captia, while the India average is one tonne.

Already the website has got 8000 hits and 600 people have completed their carbon profiles. "There is increasing curiosity among people to calculate their carbon footprint," said Vivek Gilani, co-founder of no2co2.
"Like you have a currency converter specific to India, you need a carbon calculator unique to India." But this curious group is not very large, said Akshim Ghate a research scientist who works on mapping carbon footprints from Tata Energy Research Institute (TERI).
"The awareness has increased, more so among the youth, but numbers actually doing something about it are very small. But the impact of all the awareness will be seen in the next generation as climate change is part of their curriculum now," said Ghate.

I visited the website http://www.no2co2.in/ . Its a very good one. Must visit site. Please do visit and pass on the word for a good cause.

Intelligent thinking

A jobless man applied for the position of "office boy" at Microsoft.

The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the floor as a test.

"You are employed." He said." Give me your e-mail address and I'll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start."

The man replied "But I don't have a computer, neither an email."

I'm sorry", said the HR manager, "If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have the job."

The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only $10 in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10Kg tomato crate. He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital.

He repeated the Operation three times, and returned home with $60.

The man realized that he can survive by this Way, and started to go everyday earlier, and return late Thus, his money doubled or tripled every day. Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles.

5 years later , the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the US .

He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance.

He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan. When the conversation was concluded, the broker asked him his email. The man replied, "I don't have an email". The broker answered curiously, "You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an email?!!"

The man thought for a while and replied, "Yes, I'd be an office boy at Microsoft!"

Moral of the story:

M1 - Internet is not the solution to your life.
M2 - If you don't have Internet, and work hard, you can be a millionaire.
M3 - If you received this message by email, you are closer to being an office boy, than a millionaire. .........

The Apple - Story

The Apple!!


Once there was a small kid on earth. One fine day it came to know that god is distributing apples to humans in his place at heaven. The kid was so happy to receive that news and it went with lot of enjoyment to heaven to get the apple from god. There was a big queue standing to get apple from god and this kid also joined in that queue. While it was standing, it was fully excited and thrilled for the fact that it is going to receive in person from god's hands. Its turn too came and the kid showed its both the hands to receive apple. God gave the apple but unfortunately the tiny hands couldn't hold that big apple. Apple fell down and got wasted in mud. The kid got so disappointed. The ministers near the god informed that if the kid likes to have an apple from god again then it has to again follow the queue. Having waited for so long the kid didn't want to return back to earth with empty hands so it decided to wait again in the queue.

This time the queue has become even longer than the previous one. While waiting in queue, the kid could see lot of people who returns back with apple in hands and utmost satisfaction on their faces. The kid was so much disappointed and thought why me alone didn't get the apple in hand when all others were easily able to get it. What is the sin I did that I alone should suffer like this. Now the kid was so scared that it should not miss the apple again. Again its turn came and god gave the apple to the kid's hands and after giving the apple god spoke to the kid.

"My dear child, last time after giving you the apple only I noticed the apple I gave to you was a rotten apple and that's why I made that to fell down from your hands. Having given you a rotten apple, I felt bad for you and I wanted to give you the best apple in the farm and that time the best apple in the farm was growing and that's why I made you to wait such a long time in the queue. Here it is. Now the apple that you have in hand is 'The Best' apple in the farm till to date. Enjoy."

Moral : Friends, sometimes it so happens, as even after we put our 100% dedication and commitment things may get delayed or things may go wrong.
Believe that god has something great for us and that's why this has happened. Always say, 'Gratitude & patience is absolutely the best way to bring more in one's life'.

Governance System - FUNNY

As a daily habit Pintu was reading newspaper.

Suddenly he asked his father, " Dad! What does it mean by 'Governance System' ? "

"It's like..." father said while thinking, "See! I earn and bring money to home, mean's I am a 'Money Holder'. Your mother decides where and how to spend that money and that means she is 'Government'. That maid in our home is doing all the household works, so she will be 'Labour Class'. You are a 'Common man' or 'Public'. Your kid brother is 'Future' or the 'Next Generation', understand?".

That day Pintu slept with all those thoughts. In the middle of the night he woke-up because his kid brother was crying. He wetted the matrices so he was crying. Pintu went to woke-up his mother. She was in deep sleep so Pintu went to the Maiden's room to wake her up. But there his father was sleeping with the maid. So he came back with frustration.

Next morning father asked Pintu, " Hey Pintu Darling! You understood the 'Governance System'? ".

Pintu replied, "Yeah Dad, I understood! When Money Holder is exploiting Labour Class, our Government is sleeping. Future of our nation is crying for not getting their basic needs fulfilled and in all this Common Man is suffering!"

If Columbus had been married

If Columbus had been married,
he might never have discovered
America, because he would have had to answer all the following questions:

· Where are you going?
· With whom?
· Why?
· How are you going?
· To discover what?
· Why only you?
· What do I do when you are not here?
· Can I come with you?
· When will you be back?
· Would you have dinner at home?
· What would you bring for me?
· You deliberately made this plan without me, didnt you?
· You seem to be making a lot of these programs lately...
· Answer me why?
· I want to go to my mothers house.
· I want you to drop me there.
· I dont want to come back ever!
· What do you mean, OK?
· Why arent you stopping me?
· I dont understand what this whole discovery thing is about.
· You always do things like this.
· Last time you also did the same thing!
· Nowadays you always seem to do this kind of stuff.
· I still dont understand what else is left to be discovered!

Google Search - TIPS

This is an old one, but very important: Put quotes around phrases that must be searched together. If you put quotes around "electric curtains," Google won't waste your time finding one set of Web pages containing the word "electric" and another set containing the word "curtains."

Similarly, put a hyphen right before any word you want screened out. If you're looking up dolphins, for example, you'll have to wade through a million Miami Dolphins pages unless you search for "dolphins - Miami."

Google is a global White Pages and Yellow Pages. Search for "phonebook:home depot norwalk, ct," Google instantly produces the address and phone number of the Norwalk Home Depot. This works with names ("phonebook: robert jones las vegas , NV") as well as businesses.

Don't put any space after "phonebook." And in all of the following examples, don't type the quotes I'm showing you here.

Google is a package tracker. Type a FedEx or UPS package number (just the digits); when you click Search, Google offers a link to its tracking information.

Google is a calculator. Type in an equation ("32+2345*3- 234=").

Google is a units-of-measuremen t converter. Type "teaspoons in a gallon," for example, or "centimeters in a foot."

Google is a stock ticker. Type in AAPL or MSFT, for example, to see a link to the current Apple or Microsoft stock price, graphs, financial news and so on.


Google is an atlas. Type in an area code, like 212, to see a Mapquest map of the area.

Google is Wal-Mart's computer. Type in a UPC bar code number, such as "036000250015, " to see the description of the product you've just "scanned in." (Thanks to the Google Blog,
http://google. blogspace. com , for this tip and the next couple.)

Google is an aviation buff. Type in a flight number like "United 22" for a link to a map of that flight's progress in the air. Or type in the tail number you see on an airplane for the full registration form for that plane.

Google is the Department of Motor Vehicles. Type in a VIN (vehicle identification number, which is etched onto a plate, usually on the door frame, of every car), like "JH4NA1157MT001832, " to find out the car's year, make and model.

For hours of rainy-day entertainment, visit
http://labs. google.com . Here, you'll find links to new, half-finished Google experiments- like Google Voice, in which you call (650) 623-6706, speak the words you want to search for and then open your browser to view the results.

Working On A Project

A new vacuum cleaner salesman knocked on the door on the first house of
the street. A tall lady answered the door.

Before she could speak, the enthusiastic salesman barged into the living
room and opened a big black plastic bag and poured all the cow droppings
onto the carpet.

"Madam, if I could not clean this up with the use of this new powerful
Vacuum cleaner, I will EAT all this s**t!" exclaimed the eager salesman.

"Do you need chilly sauce or ketchup with that" asked the lady.

The bewildered salesman asked, "Why, madam?"

"There's no electricity in the house..." said the lady

Funny Story

It was a hot meeting at the office conference hall. All the people from the department had been called. The VP was looking much tensed.

The mood was so bad. My friend asked me -"Hey, what is this meeting all about? I told - May be they will decide on when to have the next meeting. People around smiled at each other. Then the VP started talking. It was about the recent attrition rate that was so high. Around 10 people had put in their papers. All experienced guys. It was quarter end and so work was huge. If we do not complete the work on time, we need to be paying heavy penalty said the VP. The VP turned to the manager and told "Hey - take how much ever resources you want. Recruit or take them from other departments. But complete the work in another 25 days. Take people and complete it man.

To this the sweet manager replied "Sir! Give me one wife and nine months and I shall show you results. Don't give me nine wives and one month. I cannot do anything . " Everyone looked at him blank. The VP was not prepared for this answer. We looked at the manager and thought
"What an Awesome Reply man!"

I had a passion for agriculture even when I was young. I don't know how my love for agriculture started. I only know that I have always been a nature lover.
I used to have a garden even when I was a teenager. So, from a home garden, a kitchen garden, I gradually became a farmer! My mother used to be very happy with the vegetables I grew.

Studying at IIT-Madras

My family was against my ambition of becoming an agriculturist. So, I had to find a livelihood for myself.
I wrote IIT-JEE and got selected to study at the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras. I enjoyed studying mechanical engineering.
My intention was to transform what I study into what I love; mechanisation of farming. I felt the drudgery in farming is much more than in any other industry, and no one had looked into it.

Working for ONGC after IIT

I started my career at the Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC). My father refused to give me any money to start farming. So I asked the officials to let me work at the offshore sites, on the rigs.
The advantage was that I could work on rigs for 14 days and then take 14 days off. I chose to work on the rigs for nine years, uninterrupted.

After 4 years, I saved enough money to buy six acres of land. I bought land at Chengelpet near Chennai.
I chose that land because the plot had access to road and water. Back in 1989, a man in a pair of trousers aroused curiosity among the farming community. That was not the image of a farmer!

Tough beginning as a farmer

I became a full fledged farmer in 1993. It was tough in the beginning. Nobody taught me how to farm. There was no guidance from the gram sevaks or the University of Agriculture.
I ran from pillar to post but couldn't find a single scientist who could help me. I burnt my fingers. My first crop was paddy and I produced 2 tonnes from the six acres of land, it was pathetic.
When I lost all my money, my father said I was stupid. I told him, it didn't matter as I was learning. It was trial and error for me for three years. Until 1997, I was only experimenting by mingling various systems.

In 1996, I visited Israel because I had heard that they are the best in water technology. Take the case of corn: they harvest 7 tonnes per acre whereas we produce less than a tonne.
They harvest up to 200 tonnes of tomatoes, whereas here it is 6 tonnes, in similar area of land. I stayed in one of the kibbutz, which is a co-operative farm for 15 days.
I understood what we do is quite primitive. It was an eye opener for me. They treat each plant as an industry. A plant producing one kilo of capsicum is an industry that has 1 kilo output.
I learnt from them that we abuse water. Drip irrigation is not only for saving water but it enhances your plant productivity. We commonly practice flood irrigation where they just pump water. As per the 2005 statistics, instead of 1 litre, we use 750 litres of water.

I met Dr Lakshmanan, a California-based NRI, who has been farming for the last 35 years on 50-60,000 acres of land.
He taught me farming over the last one decade. Whatever little I have learnt, it is thanks to him.
I knew a farm would give me much better returns in terms of money as well as happiness. Working for money and working for happiness are different. I work and get happiness. What more do you need?
No guidance in India
I said at one platform that we have to change the curriculum of the agricultural universities. What they teach the students is not how to farm, but how to draw loans from a bank!
What they learn cannot be transformed to reality or to the villages. The problem in the villages is not mentioned in the university. There is a wide gap and it is getting worse.

After burning my fingers for four years, from 1997 onwards, I started making profits.
Even though it took me four years, I did not lose hope. I knew this was my path ven though I didn't have any guidance from anyone.
In those days, communication was slow. Today, I can get guidance from Dr Lakshmanan on Skype or Google Talk, or through e-mail.
I send him the picture of my problem and ask his guidance. In those days, it took time to communicate. There was no Internet or connectivity.
That was why it took me four years to learn farming. Today, I would not have taken more than six months or even less to learn the trick!

I started crop rotation after 1997. In August, I start with paddy and it is harvested in December.
I plant vegetables in December itself and get the crops in February. After that, it is oil seeds like sesame and groundnut, which are drought-resistant, till May.
During May, I go on trips to learn more about the craft. I come back in June-July and start preparations on the land to get ready for August. In 1999, I bought another four acres. My target is a net income of Rs 100,000 per annum per acre. I have achieved up to Rs 50,000.

Selling the products

I sell my produce on my own. I have a jeep and bring what I produce to my house and sell from there. People know that I sell at home. I don't go through any middle man.
I take paddy to the mill, hull it and sell it on my own. In the future, I have plans to have a mill too. These days, people tell me in advance that they need rice from me. I have no problem selling my produce.

Engineering helps in farming

More than any other education, engineering helps in farming because toiling in the soil is only 20 per cent of the work. About 80 per cent of farming needs engineering skills.
Science is a must for any farming. I have developed a number of simple, farmer-friendly tools for farming areas like seeding, weeding, etc. as we don't have any tools for small farmers.
If I have 200 acres of land, I can go for food processing, etc. My next project is to lease land from the small farmers for agriculture. The village will prosper with food processing industries coming there. My yield will also be more with more land.

Abdul Kalam visits the farm

Dr Abdul Kalam visited my farm when he was the President, after hearing about what I was doing. He spent around two hours on my farm.
During his visit, he said: "We need not one, but one million Madhavans!"
If I am able to inspire or create even one entrepreneur, I will be very happy, because that is what Dr Kalam wished me to do.

Experimental farming

Every acre of my land has ten cents of experimental farming. I have done this for the last 15 years.
This is a part of my research and development. Some of it may fail, but even if I succeed at one thing, that is enough for me.

Entrepreneurship in the village

I feel that the number of people engaged only in farming should come down. Instead of ten people, there should only be two people. I am not saying the eight should go jobless.
What we should do is, create employment in the villages based on other agro activities like value addition, processing, etc.
We can go for mechanisation in large areas so that the cost per acre goes down. In India, the cost per every meal is very high. So, my next concern is, how do you make it cheap.
In America, the unskilled working for one hour can earn three meals a day. Here, in the rural areas, even if they work for one day, they can't get one meal a day. How do you bring down the cost? By producing more food. So, my intention is to make more food.

Food insecurity in India

The United Nations says 65 per cent of the world population suffers from food deficiency, and India ranks first in the list.
About 49 per cent of our children are undernourished. This means our future generation will be affected.
If we are not going to give attention to this area, we are in for real trouble. Food insecurity is more threatening than an atom bomb!

Small Story

Here is a short story with a beautiful message…

Little girl and her father were crossing a bridge. The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter, "Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don't fall into the river." The little girl said, "No, Dad. You hold my hand." "What's the difference?" Asked the puzzled father. "There's a big difference," replied the little girl. "If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go. But if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go."

In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in its bond.

So hold the hand of the person who loves you rather than expecting them to hold yours...
This message is too short......but carries a lot of Feelings.

Funny Story

On walking into the factory, the Managing Director of the company
noticed a young guy leaning against the wall, doing nothing.
He approached the young man and calmly said to him,
"How much do you earn?"
The young man was quite amazed
that he was asked such a personal question,
he replied, none the less, "I earn $ 2000.00 a month,
Sir. Why?"
Without answering, the MD took out his wallet
and removed $6000.00 cash and gave it to the young man and said,
"Around here I pay people for working,
not for standing around looking pretty!
Here is your 3 months salary, now GET OUT and don't come back".

The young man turned around and was quickly out of sight.
Noticing a few onlookers, the MD said in a very upset manner,
"And that applies to everybody in this company".
He approached one of the onlookers and asked him,"Who's the young man
I just fired?"
To which an amazing reply came - "He was the pizza delivery guy , Sir!"

The Strange Sequence

Here is a sequence of numbers

Wooden Bowl - Story

A frail old man went to live with his son, daughter-in- law, and a four-year old grandson.

The old man's hands trembled, his eyesight was blurred, and his step faltered.

The family ate together nightly at the dinner table. But the elderly grandfather' s shaky hands and failing sight made eating rather difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor.

When he grasped the glass often milk spilled on the tablecloth. The son and daughter-in- law became irritated with the mess. "We must do something about grandfather, " said the son.

I've had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating, and food on the floor. So the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. There, grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner at the dinner table.

Since grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl.

Sometimes when the family glanced in grandfather' s direction, he had a tear in his eye as he ate alone. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp admonitions when he dropped a fork or spilled food. The four-year-old watched it all in silence.

One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood scraps on the floor.

He asked the child sweetly, "What are you making?" Just as sweetly, the boy responded, "Oh, I am making a little bowl for you and mama to eat your food from when I grow up." The four-year-old smiled and went back to work.

The words so struck the parents that they were speechless.

Then tears started to stream down their cheeks. Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done.

That evening the husband took grandfather' s hand and gently led him back to the family table.

For the remainder of his days he ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, neither husband nor wife seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled, or the tablecloth soiled.

Children are remarkably perceptive. Their eyes ever observe, their ears ever listen, and their minds ever process the messages they absorb.

If they see us patiently provide a happy home atmosphere for family members, they will imitate that attitude for the rest of their lives. The wise parent realizes that every day that building blocks are being laid for the child's future.

God Works Slowly - A Story

An elephant came to the edge of a stream of clear rushing water.

Being thirsty, the elephant leaned over, dropped its trunk into the

cool water and... plunk!

"What? What happened?" the elephant cried. "I can't see! My eye...

it fell in the water! Oh nooooooh," the elephant wailed in a panic,

"I lost my eye!"

And, in fact, the elephant's right eye had popped out of its

socket and fallen into the stream. The elephant searched frantically

for the eye, groping with its trunk along the bottom of the stream.

The more he groped, the cloudier the water became. That made him

panic even more, and he started churning up great piles of sand, until

he couldn't see anything.

Then the elephant heard the sound of laughing. Furious, he

looked around to see who it was, and saw a little green frog sitting

on a log, laughing and laughing.

"You think this is funny?" the elephant shouted. "I lose an eye

and that makes you laugh?"

"What's funny is to see how upset you are. Calm down and everything

will be fine," the frog replied.

The elephant felt a little ashamed and took the frog's advice.

He stopped moving his trunk around, and soon the water became clearer

as the sand sank to the bottom. And there in the stream lay his eye.

He reached for it with his trunk and popped it back into its socket.

And then he thanked the frog.

This simple parable contains great wisdom. There's nothing funny

about losing an eye... the sudden panic, thrashing around in murky

water, desperation... that's exactly what happens to us when we lose control and panic. Our haste makes us blind.

We become temporarily incapable of seeing the world around us

objectively and rationally. But there is an antidote to panic: wait.

Wait until the situation becomes clear and the black clouds disperse.

"Haste is the devil's work;

God works slowly."

Gandhiji's Shoes - A Story

As Mahatma Gandhi stepped aboard a train one day,

One of his shoes slipped Off and landed on the track.

He was unable to retrieve it as the train was Moving.

To the amazement of his companions, Gandhi calmly took off his other shoe And threw it back along the track to land close to the first.

Asked by a fellow passenger why he did so,

Gandhi smiled. "The poor man who Finds the shoes lying on the track,"

He replied, " will now have a pair he Can use."

Learn and Grow - Sir Edmund Hillary

Sir Edmund Hillary was the first man to climb Mount Everest.

On May 29, 1953 he scaled the highest mountain then known to man-29,000 feet straight up. He was knighted for his efforts.


He even made American Express card commercials because of it!

However, until we read his book, High Adventure,

We don't understand that Hillary had to grow into this success.


You see, in 1952 he attempted to climb Mount Everest, but failed. A few weeks later a group in England asked him to address its members.

Hillary walked on stage to a thunderous applause. The audience was recognizing an attempt at greatness, but Edmund Hillary saw himself as a failure. He moved away from the microphone and walked to the edge of the platform. He made a fist and pointed at a picture of the mountain.

He said in a loud voice, “Mount Everest, you beat me the first time, but I'll beat you the next time because you've grown all you are going to grow... but I'm still growing!"


This is the attitude that has made most of the world renowned achievers to reach their goal in life!

The attitude of “learning & growing” every moment in life!

Hearing Problem - A Small Story

A man feared his wife wasn't hearing as well as she used to and he
thought she might need a hearing aid. Not quite sure how to approach
her, he called the family doctor to discuss the problem. The Doctor told
him there is a simple informal test the husband could perform to give
the Doctor a better idea about her hearing loss.

Here's what you do," said the Doctor, "stand about 40 feet away from
her, and in a normal conversational speaking tone see if she hears you.
If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and s o on until you get a
response.

"That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he was in
the den. He says to himself, "I'm about 40 feet away, let's see what
happens." then in a normal tone he asks, 'Honey, what's for dinner?" No
response. So the husband moves to closer to the kitchen, about 30 feet
from his wife and repeats, "Honey, what's for dinner?" Still no
response.

Next he moves into the dining room where he is about 20 feet
from his wife and asks, Honey, what's for dinner?" Again he gets no
response, so he walks up to the kitchen door, about 10 feet away.

"Honey, what's for dinner?" Again there is no response. So he walks
right up behind her.
"Honey, what's for dinner?"
James, for the FIFTH time I've said,
CHICKEN!"


Moral of the story:

The problem may not be with the other one as we always think, could be
very much within us ..!

When Opportunity Knocks

A young man wished to marry the farmer's beautiful daughter. He went to the
farmer to ask his permission. The farmer looked at him and said, "Son, go
stand out in that field. I'm going to release three bulls, one at a time. If
you can catch the tail of any one of the three bulls, you can marry my
daughter."

The young man stood in the field awaiting the first bull. The barn door opened
and out came the biggest, meanest looking bull he had ever seen.. He decided
that one of the next bulls had to be a better choice than this one, so he ran
over to the side and let the bull pass through.

The barn door opened again. Unbelievable. He had never seen anything so big
and fierce in his life. It stood pawing the ground, it eyed him. Whatever the
next bull was like, it had to be a better choice than this one he thought. He
ran to the fence and let the bull pass through.

The door opened a third time. A smile came across his face. This was the
weakest bull he had ever seen. This one was his bull, he said to himself. As
the bull came running by, he positioned himself just right and jumped at just
the exact moment. He threw his hands to grab..... But alas..... The bull had no
tail.



Moral: Life is full of opportunities. Always grab the first one.

Wife Vs Husband

A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word.


An earlier discussion had led to an argument and

neither of them wanted to concede their position.

As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats, and pigs,

the husband asked sarcastically, "Relatives of yours?"

"Yep," the wife replied, "in-laws."






CREATION

A man said to his wife one day, "I don't know how you can be

so stupid and so beautiful all at the same time.

" The wife responded, "Allow me to explain.

God made me beautiful so you would be attracted to me;

God made me stupid so I would be attracted to you!



WHO DOES WHAT

A man and his wife were having an argument about who

should brew the coffee each morning.

The wife said, "You should do it, because you get up first,

and then we don't have to wait as long to get our coffee."

The husband said, " You are in charge of cooking around here and

you should do it, because that is your job, and I can just wait for my
coffee."

Wife replies, "No, you should do it, and besides, it is in the Bible

that the man should do the coffee."

Husband replies, "I can't believe that, show me."

So she fetched the Bible, and opened the New Testament

and showed him at the top of several pages, that it indeed
says.........."HEBREWS"



The Silent Treatment

A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving
each

other the silent treatment. Suddenly, the man realized that the next
day,

he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning
business flight.

Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on
a piece of paper,

"Please wake me at 5:00 AM." He left it where he knew she would find it.


The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM

and he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and

see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by


the bed. The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up."

Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.

Don't Change the world!!!

Once upon a time, there was a king who ruled a prosperous country. One day,
he went for a trip to some distant areas of his country. When he was back to
his palace, he complained that his feet were very painful, because it was
the first time that he went for such a long trip, and the road that he went
through was very rough and stony. He then ordered his people to cover every
road of the entire country with leather. Definitely, this would need
thousands of cows' skin, and would cost a huge amount of money.

Then one of his wise servant dared himself to tell the king, "Why do you
have to spend that unnecessary amount of money ? Why don't you just cut a
little piece of leather to cover your feet ?"

The king was surprised, but he later agreed to his suggestion, to make a
"shoe" for himself.

There is actually a valuable lesson of life in this story : to make this
world a happy place to live, you better change yourself - your heart; and
not the world . . .

Time pass / Pastime

Currently, listening to the following songs:

Su Che - What's Your Rashee - It's an awesome song sung by Madhushree AKA Sujata Bhattacharya.

I am also trying to read the book FREEDOM at MIDNIGHT, by Dominic Lappiere and Larry Collins. You get an unbiased truth of India during the partition era from point of view of 2 foreign authors after extensive and trustworthy research. I have read about 250 pages of this 700 Page book and at this stage only, one can clearly understand how our History that is quoted in textbooks in forged to appease the Ruling Class.

Apart from this, I am doing a part time study and research on Advaita, Dvaita and Vishitadvaita and esp. works of Sri Adishankaracharya's BHAJA GOVINDAM.

The vacuum that was kindling me for a long time finally has got an outlet to satisfy it's humongous hunger for this voracious SOUL. Thank you CHINMAYA MISSION for sheer coincidence of relating and networking me with the Divinity transgressed already with other fellow humans with mine too...

Da Weekend

It was a contented and satisfying weekend. After office on Saturday, came home and watched KANDASAMY. It was a nice entertainer.

Then, visited the DENTIST. As usual ,had lots of fun there that ma'm thought me the proper way of brushing! I met a cute kid there and had lots of fun playing with it. I also helped an old grandma cross the busy Sampige Street and that gave me immense satisfaction.

Sunday morning, I cleaned the house and washed my clothes. Then had a hearty meal at IYER mess. Thought of going to Kanden Kaadhalai, but plans did not materialize. Came home and watched EERAM. It was a very different movie, an enjoyable one too.
Evening, I had been to Shankara Mutt and Ayyappa Temple. Came home and watched Al Pacino's CARLITO'S WAY.

Well, that's it my weekend!!!

BACHELOR'S BEWARE!!!

Embarrasing Incident

This happened on 25 October. Me and my friend went to a small restaurant to have some snacks after a movie. It was inhabited only by us and an old couple. As my friend was very hungry, he was munching on his menu, but I was having a cup of coffee.

We were doing some small talk about the movie and the producer and politics of South India, etc... We were talking in the lingua franca of our own: Sanskritized Tamil. In the middle, the old gentleman interuppted and started rambling about the political system and the flaws of perpetrators in Tamil Nadu and quoted the harrowing experiences he himself had undergone. Then, he asked about our caste, community and place of work,etc... We, both innocent guys :-), gave the details with utmost sincerity to the old gentleman and his wife proudly.

Like a bolt from the blue, the old man told that he is looking for a boy for his relation and that the girl is working in TCS Bangalore and blah blah. He even went on to ask our addresses. Man! Both of us felt very shy and pathetic at that point of time. We felt embarassed to the core. He sensing our shyness, asked us to atleast give our parents' address. My friend, a little fickle-minded, told me that let's give the address.

I thought I've had enough of this and bluntly told the old man that we have parents who will take care of our marriage proposals and moreover we were only 23. Then the old man duly apologized saying that the girl was already 26. I heaved a sigh of relief.

So, (Eligible) BACHELORS BEWARE!!!

DON'T QUIT

Don’t Quit
-----------

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow --
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor's cup,
And he learned too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out--
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

AADHAVAN

This Sunday I had gone to Aadhavan for a matinee show in one of the local theatres. Thank God that I did not shell out more money for a pathetic movie like this in some over-priced multiplex in Namma Bengaluru.

Cast: Surya, Nayanthara, Murali(Character Artist), Rahul Dev,Sayyaji Shinde, Riaz Khan, Anand Babu(Nagesh's Son),FEFSI Vijayan, Saroja Devi and VADIVELU
Direction: KS RAVIKUMAR aka MASALA KUMAR
Production: RED GIANT FILMS - Udhayanidhi Stalin
Music: Harris Jayaraj
and other crew

The movie does not live up to the expectations and hype created by Kalaignar TV and the media. Surya's role is very much similar to the one he did in AYAN, so he needs to do something seriously to break the stereotype. Much of the action sequences are a modified version of AYAN.

Unlike AYAN, logic is defied blatantly and amuses many at critical and serious times during the climax. Nayanthara is wasted and portrays a very old misplaced look, she honestly does not fit in this movie. Murali has acted aptly as always, but it's a pity that he expired before the movie could release. Saroja Devi is an addition and man, she does look beautiful even at this age, better than Nayanthara obviously. But, one prime question? Will she sport make up even in HEAVEN???

The other villains are stereotypes that we have seen time and again in many tamil flicks. But all this happens in KOLKATA, that's the only difference. VADIVELU is the real sheet anchor to this movie. Without him, even with Surya, they would not be able to pull off even a decent run in theatres.

The first half is more interesting relatively. Surya's stunts are always enjoyable, but in this case, a little exagerrated even by Surya's standards, like jumping from building to building, leaping 10-12 feet, cliches as in AYAN, and then a timed rocket launcher that will explode after 2 minutes, which Surya after a gun shot to his right shoulder, clings on to the bottom of a helicopter and re inserts that missile inside the villains copter and jumps into water and the next scene, returns normal. This is heights of desperation from KS Ravikumar. Ramesh Khanna is a total waste of time, Pathetic portrayal and his makeup!

Music by Harris Jayaraj does not live up to his name. Hasile Fissile is the only number I enjoyed. Others are cut copy mix and paste stuff from his previous hits. Music which was a great boost in AYAN is a tragedy in AADHAVAN.
The other technical aspects like choreography, cinematography and the likes are good, and I don't know the technical side of it and thus am not commenting.

Overall, go watch it for Surya and Vadivelu. Please don't go with any expectations or hype from media and never compare it with even a cinch of AYAN!!!

OLD CARTOONS

Something made me to think about and relive those old memories of cartoon network in mid-90's when it was first introduced in INDIA.
Man! It was awesome. I remember when I was in high school, I used to rush home in cycle to watch those shows in the noon. My favourites were Scooby Doo, Popeye, Tom and Jerry, Fantastic Max, Centurions, Mask, Captain Planet, Ed, Edd N Eddy, Top Cat, Jetsons, Flintstones, Galtar and the Golden Lance, Perils of Penelope Pitstop, Speed Racer, Dexter's Laboratory,Powerpuff Girls, Bugs and Daffy show, Real Adventures of Johny Quest, Toonami, Looney Tunes, Crocadoo, Yogi Bear, etc...

Those days were awesome. I wish I was a kid and I never grew!!!

My Emotions


My Emotions
-----------------


There's something missing in my life,
My senses striving for a strife.
My soul thriving somehow alive,
Maybe I'm so naive.
There's none to save,
Expecting things to be rave.
Emotions are getting lame,
A sense of imperfection and blame game,
Unless my weakness is tamed,
I shall be framed and rammed.
Marooned and Stranded,
Why my life's so bland,
What should I do to make it grand.
My friends getting fiendish,
My words getting brandished.
I wish I have answers!
I will always be a fighting soldier!

Economics 101(LOL)

It is the month of August, on the shores of the
Black Sea. It is raining, and the
little town looks totally deserted. It is tough
times,everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on
credit.
 
Suddenly, a rich tourist comes to town. He
enters the only hotel, lays a 100 Euro note on the reception
counter, and goes to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to
choose one. The hotel proprietor takes the 100 Euro note and
runs to pay his debt to the butcher.

The butcher takes the 100 Euro note, and runs
to pay his debt to the pig grower.
The pig grower takes the 100 Euro note, and runs to pay his
debt to the supplier of his feed and fuel. The supplier of
feed and fuel takes the 100 Euro note and runs to pay his
debt to the town's prostitute that in these hard times,
gave her "services" on credit. The hooker runs to
the hotel, and pays off her debt with the 100 Euro note to
the hotel proprietor to pay for the rooms that
she rented when she brought her clients there.

The hotel proprietor then lays the 100 Euro
note back on the counter so that the rich tourist will not
suspect anything. At that moment, the tourist comes down
after inspecting the rooms, and takes his 100 Euro note,
after saying that he did not like any of the rooms, and
leaves town. No one earned anything.

However, the whole town is now without
debt, and looks to the future with a lot of
optimism.....
 
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how the
United States is doing business today.

The value of 2005 one rupee coins = Rs. 2005

The value of 2004 one rupee coins = Rs. 2004

As 2005>2004, thus 2005 one rupee coins are worth more than 2004 one rupee coins

The clue lies in the word "TRY"

In the picture, we can see a black "triangle".
So, the other 5 letters are ANGLE from TRIANGLE.

2. 9+7+5 = 21 equals U
3. 2+6+5 = 13 equals M
4. 9+8+X = 19 equals S

Thus, X equals 2

SWISS BANK REVELATIONS

Swiss bank revealed India has more money than rest of the world

This is so shocking…. ….If black money deposits was an Olympics event…. India would have won a gold medal hands down. The second best Russia has 4 times lesser deposit. U.S. is not even there in the counting in top five! India has more money in Swiss banks than all the other countries combined!

Recently, due to international pressure, the Swiss government agreed to disclose the names of the account holders only if the respective governments formally asked for it.. Indian government is not asking for the details….. ..no marks for guessing why?

We need to start a movement to pressurize the government to do so! This is perhaps the only way, and a golden opportunity, to expose the high and mighty and weed out corruption!

Please read on……and forward to all the honest Indians to…..like somebody is forwarding to you…….and build a ground-swell of support for action !
Is India poor, who says? Ask the Swiss banks. With personal account deposit bank of $1,500 billion in foreign reserve which have been misappropriated, an amount 13 times larger than the country’s foreign debt, one needs to rethink if India is a poor country?

DISHONEST INDUSTRIALISTS, scandalous politicians and corrupt IAS, IRS, IPS officers have deposited in foreign banks in their illegal personal accounts a sum of about $1500 billion, which have been misappropriated by them. This amount is about 13 times larger than the country’s foreign debt. With this amount 45 crore poor people can get Rs 1,00,000 each.

This huge amount has been appropriated from the people of India by exploiting and betraying them. Once this huge amount of black money and property comes back to India , the entire foreign debt can be repaid in 24 hours. After paying the entire foreign debt, we will have surplus amount, almost 12 times larger than the foreign debt. If this surplus amount is invested in earning interest, the amount of interest will be more than the annual budget of the Central government. So even if all the taxes are abolished, then also the Central government will be able to maintain the country very comfortably.

Some 80,000 people travel to Switzerland every year, of whom 25,000 travel very frequently. ‘Obviously, these people won’t be tourists.. They must be travelling there for some other reason,’ believes an official involved in tracking illegal money.. And, clearly, he isn’t referring to the commerce ministry bureaucrats who’ve been flitting in and out of Geneva ever since the World Trade Organisation (WTO) negotiations went into a tailspin!

Just read the following details and note how these dishonest industrialists, scandalous politicians, corrupt officers, cricketers, film actors, illegal sex trade and protected wildlife operators, to name just a few, sucked this country’s wealth and prosperity. This may be the picture of deposits in Swiss banks only. What about other international banks ?

Black money in Swiss banks — Swiss Banking Association report, 2006 details bank deposits in the territory of Switzerland by nationals of following countries :
TOP FIVE

INDIA $1,456 BILLION
RUSSIA $470 BILLION
U.K. $390 BILLION
UKRAINE $100 BILLION
CHINA $96 BILLION


Now do the math’s - India with $1,456 billion or $1.4 trillion has more money in Swiss banks than rest of the world combined. Public loot since 1947:

Can we bring back our money ? It is one of the biggest loots witnessed by mankind — the loot of the Aam Aadmi (common man) since 1947, by his brethren occupying public office. It has been orchestrated by politicians, bureaucrats and some businessmen.

The list is almost all-encompassing. No wonder, everyone in India loots with impunity and without any fear. What is even more depressing in that this ill-gotten wealth of ours has been stashed away abroad into secret bank accounts located in some of the world’s best known tax havens. And to that extent the Indian economy has been stripped of its wealth. Ordinary Indians may not be exactly aware of how such secret accounts operate and what are the rules and regulations that go on to govern such tax havens. However, one may well be aware of ‘Swiss bank accounts,’ the shorthand for murky dealings, secrecy and of course pilferage from developing countries into rich developed ones.

In fact, some finance experts and economists believe tax havens to be a conspiracy of the western world against the poor countries. By allowing the proliferation of tax havens in the twentieth century, the western world explicitly encourages the movement of scarce capital from the developing countries to the rich. In March 2005, the Tax Justice Network (TJN) published a research finding demonstrating that $11.5 trillion of personal wealth was held offshore by rich individuals across the globe.
The findings estimated that a large proportion of this wealth was managed from some 70 tax havens. Further, augmenting these studies of TJN, Raymond Baker — in his widely celebrated book titled ‘Capitalism’ s Achilles Heel: Dirty Money and How to Renew the Free Market System’ — estimates that at least $5 trillion have been shifted out of poorer countries to the West since the mid-1970.

It is further estimated by experts that one per cent of the world’s population holds more than 57 per cent of total global wealth, routing it invariably through these tax havens.

How much of this is from India is anybody’s guess.
