I saw her falling unconscious

2009-12-09T13:53:00.001+05:30

Trembling and gasping for breath she fell unconscious and this happened on the road in front of my house. She was too old a woman fragile and weak. Seeing this from the roof top of my house I rushed to her and so did a few passersby. She was given some water to drink and was able to partly regain her consciousness. Given some biscuits to eat she was somewhat normal. When asked as to where her house is with a view to escort her back to her place her answer was that she has no place to go back as she was driven out of her house by her family members only including her sons. What was her crime? Nothing but that she was treated as an obstruction in their private comforts. She was some how persuaded to be escorted back to her house and no body knows as to how she might have been treated by her family members after the her escorters returned. There is no parallel to a mother in taking care of her children but when children grow to their adulthood they hardly bother for her, they rather look at her with an amount of disdain to the extent of driving her out of her home. This is the society level in India, may be in different other places in the world too. My heart bleeds.

Obama is his role model

2009-12-06T20:37:00.001+05:30

Ask Aamir Khan, the actor, as to who is his favourite hero in politics, his prompt reply is Obama, the President of America. Although he is the one who claims that he has no interest in politics, he very much reserves a right to express himself whenever he so feels like doing. 'Politics is the refuge of the scoundrels' said a writer and without using any harsh words Aamir Khan too appears more or less of the same view. There should be good people in politics, he says, quoting American President as an ideal leader. Believing in a result oriented working, he feels Obama is radical in real terms and that he means business.

Pleasures emerging from greeneries

2009-09-06T14:05:00.001+05:30

There is hardly any thing more refreshing and inspiring than the rich greeneries. Owning a garden, grooming it with necessary fits and cuts, interacting with the plants with affirmative nods with every breeze touching them soothingly are fully capable of relaxing and energizing the human faculties. See them, watch them and caress them and you draw plenty of pleasure and satisfaction. It's a double pleasure if a person is able to groom plants and their leaves giving them a finish like ladies do in a beauty saloon. Getting encircled by fluttering leaves blossoming to assume much bigger a shape freshening the whole environment are nothing less than a full bloom divine satiation.

Injecting mammals for more milk

2009-09-05T17:24:00.001+05:30

Technorati Tags: animals,religion,message,callous

More, still more and much more is the lust which humans have been suffering from for ages. Rich or poor, business magnates or the hawkers in the streets all have been pursuing this practice flagrantly violating any ethical norms prescribed from time to time not only by sages and saints but others too spreading message of love both for humans as well as animals. Who cares? Practically none. A couple residing nearby my house is a popular bhajan singer visiting different places reciting religious verses drawing applause from the audience for the message of love they convey. The message they communicate is that of love for humans, animals and any creation of God on earth. Their preachings include that one should take cows milk only as it is pure and pious. They have taken the task of supplying cows milk to themselves and this they do with a sense of pride that theirs is a noble job. What they do? They give injections to their cows to fetch more milk and never lag behind in mixing the monetarily required amount of water. Injection cause havoc on health count and the animal, it is cow or a buffalo goes fully incapacitated in course of time. This infact is callous and much against what they themselves preach from door to door. Such people actually have no right to talk on love, religiously or otherwise, and the society has to recognize them as nothing but hypocrites.

Intricacies of Insulin intake

2009-08-30T16:03:00.001+05:30

Doctors advising patients of diabetes to go for certain amount of insulin normally once in the morning before breakfast and in the night before dinner. This they do in most casual a manner which patients follow

Technorati Tags: diabetics,insulin,fitness,precautions

faithfully without applying necessary precautions with the result that there are many a complications that emerge. First thing to be adhered to is that the insulin injected is measured correctly and that there are no gas bubbles in the container and syringe. If gas remains inside the syringe it is bound to either inflate the intake quantity or is much lower impact wise and this results into a big imbalance in sugar level. The patient should actually see to it that the gas bubbles disappear which is possible by pressing the syringe knob upward in the air and it removes the unwanted gas. Around half a unit goes when this process is applied but that is worth as against the wrong dosage. Similarly it is necessary from compatibility point of view that insulin container be regularly kept in refrigerator except the time when it has to be taken out for injecting.

Drummings in futility

No sooner the coalition government in India led by Congress took over they came out with a volley of promises for the people in the country fixing up a hundred days target to exhibit their worth. The first gift they showered on public was a bumper increase in fuel rates and, as if this was not enough, they hurriedly presented their current budget drastically smashing the total economic order in the market including share market which broke their record of eight months plus in going downward. Prices of food commodities and vegetables have gone up at double their earlier rates and no body is certain yet as to what is further in store to cause problems to the people.

Getting rid of chatting masters

2009-06-02T17:13:00.001+05:30

Go for a stroll or some walking exercise in a park, there are people who virtually gherao you for talks with them. Chatting masters as they are their talks are unending and their topics are endless starting from their house hold matters to politics at the national level. They refuse to realize that some one who is on a walk with the purpose of some exercise may not be in a mood to transgress from a peace mode of his mental status to unruly conversations. Most of them come from retired category of employees from different departments. I wonder how come the people, even if they are no more in active service, can't engage themselves in some activity or the other in a positive order instead of acting as intruders to the peace zone of others. Business talks or conversations on serious subjects are matters of a specific schedule to be organized appropriately and there is no reason for any one to act as free stylers disturbing others.

Plucking eyebrows

2009-06-01T17:41:00.001+05:30

Plucking eyebrows to keep a good look is not a new thing for women but the very religion of Sikkhism prohibits such a practice branding it as an anti religion activity. A girl was denied admission to MBBS course at Sri Guru Ramdas Institute of Medical Sciences and Research at Amritsar on the grounds that she was involved in anti Sikkhism activity as she used to do the plucking of her eye brows as a part of her routine facial makeup. Point of consolation is that the Sikh priests did not issue any fatwa like certain other religions do for every thing minor or major. The current generation of women is more conscious of their look and fitness and plucking eyebrows is done by them to suitably size it to a tidy frame without allowing them to go unshorn. What is wrong in it ?

Does lust have any relationship with age

2009-05-31T17:42:00.001+05:30

An 87 years old accused facing the charges of rape was granted bail by the Court as the media coverage speaks out. No wonder as granting bail to any accused on any count howsoever serious be the charges against him/ her is what happens very often in our country. The other side of this news that a man in his later eightees found himself lusty enough to go for a rape. Rape is supposed to be more aggressive an act of sexual involvement compared to normal sex as it is without any compromise where the man concerned is required to be not only more aggressive but more energetic too and application of the both by a man at 87 is some thing difficult to comprehensively analyze. Energy and stamina apart, the story in any case speaks volumes on amount of the lust the accused might have had.

No profile is big or small

2009-05-30T15:46:00.001+05:30

After the new government in India took over the charge of governance there has been a tough fighting on portfolios with every one trying hard get an important most ministerial assignment. Farooq Abdullah, ex Chief Minister of Jammu & Kashmir and a heavy weight in politics, was quite positive when he said while reacting to allocation of energy ministry to him that it is not the profile that is big or small but it is the performance that counts. Where ever one is he is to perform well and if he can't do it better it is always better for him to quit. Either work well or quit and there should be nothing else in between. Well said. Actually those who are to judge such performance also should not suffer from any prejudices and work alone has to be the basis for them to adjudge the merit of the performers.

Marriage bells for Sania Mirza

2009-05-29T17:44:00.001+05:30

Sania Mirza, the great tennis sensation, is now likely to tie her marriage knot with a Hyderabad boy and the chances are that she may quit sports after she is married. Why should she quit after marriage when she is in an enviable form of health and knows well as a sports woman as to how a required health wise fitness for the purpose is maintained. As a great sports woman she has given laurels to the country and her continuing as such is sure to add further image to herself and the nation. After all it is all a personal matter where her's has to be the final word. On our turn we wish her all the best on both the counts -her sports career, her marriage.

Calls from the dark

2009-05-28T17:29:00.001+05:30

Known as the boon of the modern era mobile phones are recognized as a tool for multifarious activities and utilities. No good is there without some element of bad in it in the background and so are mobile phones. Contacting, talking, chatting, setting alarms and enjoying music all is there in the tiny tool but occasions are not rare when it is annoying and irritating. You are on an important business schedule, as a gentle man you prefer not to switch off the instrument from the point of view that no important communication should remain unattended and then there is a ring from some where, the callers being mostly the girls, giving you the whisper of '..dear darling, how sweet you are..' and by the time you normalize yourself to mentally fit into such an unexpected message the call is cut. You take a sigh of relief. This relief is short lived as after a few seconds the call is there again with some more romantically silky words. You have no go but to switch off your mobile. Such a trespassing is a routine for many and I wonder how difficult it is to identify such callers from the dark.

Hoarding money

2009-05-27T17:06:00.001+05:30

Technorati Tags: hoarding,coins,cash,dig,hole

In olden days money was more hoarded than spent and the system used for the purpose was to dig a large hole somewhere in the house, keep the bag of money (those days only coins and no question of currency notes) inside and close it with a mud flooring. Money was considered safe there although there were many who used the spot as their bed with a mat stretched on the site. They used to sleep there themselves as a measure of additional security. Now there are banks in plenty every where to take care of peoples money offering some interest too which was out of question in the case of hoarded coins. No such hoarding now but tendency on that count is still reflected in banks applying delaying tactics in making payments to the customers for the reason that more the delay more the benefit to them in the form of money being used for lending on a high rate of interest averaging delays in transit durations. In modern language it is a strategic mode of operating money but the very origin of this tendency lies in what was called hoarding in old days.

The kinds of opinions

2009-05-26T17:34:00.001+05:30

What are the kinds of opinions was the question asked to some body who replied telling that there are two kinds of opinions -my opinion and the wrong opinion. Normally in routine behavior the very attitude of the people is as if whatever they say or do is right and what others do in the same context of work is wrong. Actually this is the type of approach that results into problems as conflict on opinion is the major causes of clashes in any thought process. Reconciliation on opinion clash could be the approach to resolve the relative behavior for which sides concerned are required to get rid of their prejudices in a logical order which act is capable of eliciting necessary harmony in mutual relationship.

From human to human

Technorati Tags: livingstyle,grumble,situation,task

Life differs from human to human and so does their style of living. Persons placed in comfortable positions hardly bother about the problems others might be facing. A friend of mine who was posted on an election duty last month is not tired of narrating her experience during her stay at a village polling booth. There were no basic amenities available there, no toilet, no eatables, even no water to drink. She was cursing the administration who posted her there claiming that she being a lady should have been spared from the task. Why sparing ladies when there is so much of a cry on their seeking right of equality with men was my question to her. I asked her as to why she is forgetting that the place which she was talking about was not the one without men, women, children living there for ages undergoing all sorts of hardships in the absence of basic amenities. How come, I asked her, that they are the people living there with their families with such a difficult mode of life for generations and you look to be the one who found spending even a few hours so tortuous. If those leading a comfortable life style start thinking even a bit about those who are living in difficult situations they may have no reasons to grumble for themselves.

Why special train for Railway Minister ?

2009-05-24T17:27:00.001+05:30

I am not aware of as to what is the practice on this count elsewhere in the world but as it is seen in India there is always a special train for Railway Minister to take him to his home town or wherever else he opts to go. Now that Mamta Banerjee, the fire brand leader of Trinmul Congress in Kolkata, is taking over charge as a Minister Incharge of the railways in India and if she too follows the pattern that obtained in her predecessor Lallu Yadava's time and even before that, she too may require not simply a berth or a coupe but a full train consisting of several bogies transporting bogey of her supporters alongwith her family members from one place to the other. Why such a wastage? Mamta Banerjee has otherwise an image of a down to earth person leading a moderately simple life style but there is no instance till now when any Rail Minister might have refused to enjoy such a wasteful arrangement. If Mamta Banerjee can afford to be an exception, this may set an ideal for many.

Bikes at cheaper rates

After Tata launched Nano which was a revolution in moderately rated four wheelers and it accelerated the competition element amongst auto dealers who started preparing themselves to bring out still much cheaper a vehicle. There is however nothing new in the market till now except ofcourse Nano which has yet to see the roads. New focus is generated on low cost two wheelers with Bajaj Auto coming out with a motorbike in the range of Rs. 20000/ to 24000/. This is a 125cc bike with its production starting in China whereafter it will start in India. The plan of Bajaj Auto is to come out with yet another version of the vehicle priced in the range of 17000/ to 20000/ making it possible for the people in lower income range to go for a two wheeler which presently they are not able to afford cost wise.

Hoax of an announcement

2009-05-22T17:38:00.001+05:30

News counts as it is supposed to carry with it some thing in substance and it takes no time for the news to turn into a hoax when nothing material comes out of it. A welcome announcement was made by the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Mayawati that there has to be no power cut for longer hours and that timings for the purpose are to be restricted to 7am to 10am and 5pm to 7pm. The announcement was hailed and highly welcomed by all and people in general were jubilant with the thought that they are no more to suffer so much because of there being nothing like any schedule for the power cut and such cuts were till now to run for several hours at a stretch with numerous rounds in a day. The jubilation didn't last long as immediately after the instructions were issued to improve the power supply, the supply was rigorously reduced in a worst possible measure. Barren statements could appease some for a short while and soon they are received by the consumers as nothing but just a hoax.

On cool drinks

2009-05-21T17:27:00.001+05:30

Technorati Tags: colddrinks,cocacola,sharbat

Difficult to refrain from some kind of a cool drink or the other, more so in hot summer but one has to keep in mind that all such drinks may not be health friendly. Sharbat with lemon is fine but the general choice particularly that of children does not end there as they always have a temptation for brands like Coca Cola, Pepsi and several others like that. Coca Cola, as the medical opinion goes, not only weakens the muscles but may even paralyze them at a stage. May be there is no problem for the moderates who consume this liquor in a limited quantity but those who get addicted to a heavy dosage of it for a longer time are likely to incur problems including a disorder to kidney and heart. Parents have to see to it that their children don't consume much of any cold drink that may cause them lot many problems. Small quantity is alright but heavy intake as a continuous feature has to be avoided for health sake.

The new government in India is in the offing with the new Prime Minister and his ministers to be sworn in within a day or so. Lobbying at a large scale is already going on and the candidates aspiring to get some berth as a minister or so are leaving no stone unturned to see that they are in. There is a cry that youths are to be given a top priority in joining the cabinet. Why youths? Those who join the government are supposed to be competent, honest and above board in all respects, they are young or old is not that material. Infact this stunt is again with the hidden agenda that a person or a group of persons be accommodated on this pretext. This looks like some one pleading his/ her case on the basis of some caste or some creed. The functionaries must be physical fit to discharge their responsibilities and this is not correct to conclude that only youths can be efficient. Suppose there is a mafia interested in a ministerial berth and he is quite young, is it prudent to take him in simply because he is a youth. Capability, competence and efficiency are not exclusively related to young ones only, they are very much there in the case of others too.

Not an expert nor am I so very conversant with the market conditions but feel like having my own observations even as a lay man on the subject. Market looks stabilized in the sense that it is now not found behaving erratic. Usual features which are quite natural for any market are there, and they have to be there, but they look set in a methodical order. Volatility, over buying, over selling, profit booking are all the essential ingredients of a share market and it just can't work without them but the system getting badly stagnated to them for considerably a long time is too cumbersome an experience for the traders but this stage comes only when the market lacks stability. May be, and so let us wish, the market is to work well with the new government in the country.

Unprecedented but not a hey day

A sky jump as it has happened in the Indian Share Market is by all means most unprecedented in its history but it is refusing to prove a hey day for the traders in the absence of any activity on account of circuits. Need of circuit(s) can not be ruled out as the share market is most likely to go haywire in the absence of it causing a large scale disorder in the total market scenario in turn disrupting the over all economy factor in the country. No doubt it is causing an enormous amount of delusion to the traders it is good in the larger interest of the people. Circuit(s) are after all a casual feature only not to last for long and, if the trend of the market remains as it obtains now, this is sure to prove a hey day for the traders subject ofcourse to the other factors that dominate the transactions. This change is undoubtedly indicative of the tremendous faith the people of the country so courageously reposed in the new government poised to take charge within next few days.
