Why there is so much hype around Obama

I just fail to understand why it means so much to everyone. Yes human beings are emotional and there is no question about it but it seems people are considering swearing in ceremony as a moment of their life. I asked this question to many of my friends and everyone had their own reasons. Finally the only thing I can understand is simple “People are fed up with Bush”. See its that simple.

No one knows Obama and not many people have seen his work. He needs to substantiate his words with results which is not an easy task. “Yes we Can” needs to be translated and he should spell success for people. Can he do this, only time will tell.

Way is not easy and the opportunity to become a hero does not comes everyday …………especially when you are The President of The United States of America.


                                                             

Stay Active with SOGOActive

Teenagers these days are so much involved with tv and video games that it has started to affect their health. This is a major concern not only for parents but also for society as a whole in years to come. The direct consequence of such behavior is the number of diseases that teenagers are contracting at such an early stage of their lives. Physical activity of any sort is too important for kids and this is something which is as important as studies. Not only it is the duty of parents and teachers but the society should also contribute to it by providing ways and means to achieve this goal.

SOGO Active through their website is involved in national youth engagement initiative which is targeted at youth aged 13 to 19 years. Coca Cola Canada has partnered with ParticipACTION, Canada’s National Voice of Physical Activity and Sport Participation, to deliver the message of being healthy and active through each Province and Territory in Canada. The website has got innovative designs which helps one to design, manage, control, and change their own individual get active plan. The site helps not only to pick your favorite sports but also has tools that encourage you to achieve next level. SogoActive has an option to join various like minded groups to arrange active games and activities in your area. A section of website is devoted to stories of inspiration from star performers.

There would be more than 100 days of activities and celebration when the Olympic flame would pass through every province of Canada in 2010. This would be the time when celebration would be at its peak and no one would want to miss even a single bit of it. The best way to contribute is by being one of the torchbearers. SOGO Active is promoting an amazing offer in their website which will award over 1,000 torchbearer spots in the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Torch Relay. There are monthly selections of Coca-Cola Torchbearers beginning January 2009. The entries would only be awarded to those teenagers, who would join this program and would demonstrate a commitment to adopt an active lifestyle. Community Hosts who register in SOGOActive would have an opportunity to provide 20 of their SOGO youth the Olympic Flame through the merit based selection process. It’s definitely an opportunity not only to be active but also a silent way to contribute your bit to Vancouver 2010 Olympics.





                                                             

Is Infosys the next one ?????

Wipro has been banned by World Bank days after Satyam met the same fate. Even though the amount is small in Wipro case but it does raise some questions about the way contracts are being sourced by the IT firms. Infosys can be the next one to be named pending the enquiries which are going at the World Bank end.

These are definitely not the good times and new of such nature does shatter the confidence of the market as a whole. This is definitely not the first time contract are being sourced in this manner and it would definitely be not the last. Not only Indian but companies across the world are involved in such practices at varying levels. However this is a good step by World Bank atleast to raise such issues and give it back to the companies concerned. You cannot expect it at places of high value and World Bank is one of those for sure.

Satyam is a clear example on how the promoters can go to any extent to maintain their control. This has direct baring on the targets assigned to sales which then uses every means to secure the contract. This is a vicious cycle and I don’t think any company is insulated from it. I am not sure which company would be the next one to ban such companies but at same time no justification can be made for those which are involved.

While Infosys Numbers did provided the support to market today but I am not sure how the world bank news will span out. Also I sincerely hope the Infosys rumors is just a rumour and it maintains the position of high dignity.


                                                             

Greater Noida - Another Scandal in the making

Gone are the days when Greater Noida Authority (GNIDA) cash registers were ringing by selling far away pieces of land for commercial and residential use. Commercial properties were sold at high prices through a bid system and even sectors were cut out and sold for residential user. There was no respite in prices and months after months they were coming out with new schemes at exorbitant prices. A large deal of BPTP for Rs. 5000 Cr and sale of land to residential users with lump sum payment was norm of the day.

While expectation is that Government bodies should come out with easy payment mechanism to make it easy for end user to own a house, Greater Noida was opposite and was very strict with payments and deadlines. HUDA, Haryana Govt Authority, sold land in Faridabad couple of years back through a draw system and the payment was so flexible that some people are even now paying Rs. 1.5 lakhs after every 6 months with their payment staggered over 5 years or so. The case of Greater Noida authority was clearly opposite. Take example of BHS- 06 or BHS-08, a residential scheme, where built up houses was allotted through a draw. Right after draw one has to deposit a lumpsum amount of Rs. 40 lakhs into the authority account. One cannot opt for staggered payment because then one would have no chance to qualify in draw (they had a clause wherein application with staggered payments would be considered second in draw and only leftovers would be allotted to them). On top of it no one from BHS-06 and BHS-08 could take loan to make this heavy payment because authority did not let you mortgage the house. End result was that only NBFC's namely HDFC and LICHF thorough their contacts managed to fund about 5000+ house. The loophole is that no one can still blame Greater Noida authority because they are no where in picture. This is clearly a monopolistic case wherein in order to source funding of 5000+ house the Banks would have gone extra mile to offer discounts and freebies. But clearly the opportunity was lost and only authority made gains out of it.

So the money flow with slowdown is drying up but their hunger has no limits. A new scandal is propping up where the authority is now asking BHS-06 250 sqm allottees to pay lease rent of 90 years and register the house. Confirmed reports has proven the fact beyond doubt that the built up houses are no where near the possession stage and still needs to be worked upon. In order to get cash at this stage they are asking for money without even talking about the possession. This is clearly beyond logic because after extracting all money from residents they would be having no incentive to work on remaining part of the houses. They are offering baits like reduction in duty from 8% to 5% without realizing that duty rate is 5% only in UP. The project is delayed by many months and now sensing major goofups in plan, Greater Noida Authority is planning to take everything before it becomes to late.

Clearly small number of residents does not constitute a vote bank hence they cannot exercise their muscles. The laws in India are so bad that monopolistic and anti- consumer practices are very common even at recognized places. Things easily noticeable are clearly ignored while unimportant things are made huge issues. No one would come and protect the residents because they have money to pay (hard earned and years of toil). Clearly if you are a responsible citizen, honest taxpayer, and a person who earns salary to make comfortable living- such exploitation should is a way of life in India.

My wishes to people of BHS-06 who are now accumulating above Rs. 8 lakhs for a piece of crap from Greater Noida Authority (GNIDA)


                                                             

Ramalinga Raju has fled to Pakistan

Ramalinga Raju the former chairman of Satyam has fled to Pakistan. Unconfirmed reports has validated that Pakistan government was too keen to invite him and has helped him to flee without any trouble. This is a complete failure of Indian Intelligence agency at time when India is yet to come out of memories of Mumbai saga.

Ramalinga Raju, a genius, who has duped lakhs of investors, could not be traced after his resignation on 7th January. However he has become an instant hit in Pakistan because of his sheer genius. Inner circle of Pakistan is of opinion that Ramalinga Raju has done the damage which no one from Pakistan or its outfits like ISI could have planned or executed in all these years. While the damage done to Mumbai has left many scars, the episode of satyam has potential to affect 53000 employees and inflict monetary loss of minimum Rs. 5000 Cr to company and its shareholder. Praises are coming from all quarters and there is a demand to confer him with highest honors in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

India on other side is doing everything to get Raju back. They are now preparing a proof of scandal in CD's which they plan to handover to each country including Pakistan to help them extradite Raju back. Pakistan meanwhile is in denial mode and authorities have refused to give any statement.

Disclaimer- This is a work of humor and a complete joke. The author salutes Mr. Raju genius who has the ability to fool everyone for almost a decade. Additionally author wants himself to be the first one to buy a book if Mr. Raju ever decides to write it.
On Pakistan front author mocks at India which for almost 2 months has failed to give justice to people who suffered in Mumbai attacks and terrorism. Pakistan will always deny and India will keep sending them the proofs.



                                                             

Office Hours Traffic Jam in Old Delhi Road - Palam Vihar, Sector 22, Sector 23 Gurgaon Crossing

Its Office Hours and there is a huge Jam in front of me while approaching the Old Delhi Road from Palam Vihar. To me initially it looked like some kind of blockage due to VIP, accident, confrontation etc and hence I decided to acknowledge my fate and stay on. Traffic was moving slowly and it was not easy to shut down my car too. 15 mins and I hardly moved few meters while the T- point was still 400m – 500m away.

Traffic Lights were recently installed in this T-Point and I was getting curious that why such thing will happen after that. Also someone from Traffic Police is there to manage the traffic even if light does not function but still it was now more than 30 mins. that anything was not moving at all. My meetings now have to be postponed and I had started to make important calls from my car itself. I know the average of my car will go down if this thing repeats in coming days though I wished it should be an isolated case.

Finally as I approached the T-point I was very much disturbed to find out that Big Trucks used for transporting Maruti Cars had choked the traffic from all way. While one truck was trying to take a U-turn back towards the factory, there was other two approaching it from different sides. Inspite of traffic lights counting their normal seconds and 2 traffic police personnel manning the traffic there was a complete chaos. While the truck was using every little space to make the turn on other side there was every other car trying to make sure to be the first one to cross the truck. Patience at its worst and you had to manage it too.

Now it’s the 5th straight day I am just wondering what the hell is happening. It takes double the time for me not to reach office then to reach at usual hours. While work of everyone is important, I think it makes sense to adjust the timings.

I know things are not easy to change, But through this post I would like to appeal to Maruti and Traffic Police to change the timings of heavy vehicles away from normal office hours. Not only it would save time of people but also lot of resources in terms of fuel, breakage etc. would be saved. Maybe anything of this sort is already there but then it is not functioning at all. We need a discipline …..and that too to be imposed strictly.

Disappointing but true

Google dropped the page rank of my blog. The only reason for it is that i did some paid posting (with a badge on it saying its a paid one) which somehow is being punished by google.

I don't know the reason for it but I left blogging for more than 2 months after feeling bad about it. I didn't made much nor I intend do but such a harsh step is totally uncalled for. At times I don't realize why only small players gets punished. I know for a reason that big amount of money is paid to big bloggers to write positively about companies. Even the authenticated sources is marred by excess of PR activities which again is paid. Too much of web is related to promotion and its on end user how to consume the information.

Google is having a monoply on web and it wants to control everything because of its sheer size. People writing on web and reading are knowledgeable enough to make a decision based on their knowledge. Google is more of a pain with it stupid logic.

Dengue Menace in Gurgaon- Important steps for you

Dengue is taking its toll in Gurgaon. Hospitals here are full of such cases and people are finding difficult to find a solution. In this situation I hope the below points would help you in case you are stuck and dont have information about anything at this moment. The experience will help you to plan in better way
1) It starts with high fever and the other symptoms are rashes, headache, backache, joint pains, vomiting, nausea, pain in stomach etc.
2) At start people mistook it as normal fever but you have to be cautious if you hear a single case in your locality.
3) You need to have CBC test in order to confirm the platelets in your blood. The count is between 1.5 to 4 lacs for normal human being.
4) You need at least two tests to confirm if the platelets are going down. Generally the rate can be a drop of above 500 platelets per hour.
5) If platelets is below 1.5 lacs then your doctor would advise you to drink lot of fluids like water, lemon water, strong coffee etc.
6) Situation is not good below 80 thousand and needs hospitalization below 50 thousand.
7) I saw cases of platelets below 20 thousand and even 15thousand but their situation was much worse. They were vomiting all the time and had pain too.
8) Below 50 you need to get hospitalized. It vary from individual to individual and hence you need to get in touch with your doctor.
9) Since hospitals is full I would suggest that you get in touch with some hospital when count is around 1 lakh. The drop is fast and gives little time to react.
10) once your platelet count is below 50 thousand then the doctor would advise you to load units of platelets. Two units are sufficient and would help you to recover.
11) The units of platelets is not same as that of blood. One unit at Paras Hospital cost Rs. 12,000 and they have 2 machines only. Another hospital is Artemis which has 1 machine. You can also check with Gurgaon civil hospital as they also have option. I am not sure about other hospitals in Gurgaon.
12) One unit of platelets has around 30 thousand platelets count. This will be given to patient so that by the time antibodies gets killed you have enough platelets. I will describe more about later in post.
13) Once the patient is given 2 units the doctors wait for recovery. Generally the whole process gets over in 3 to 7 days depending upon your body. Once platelet production starts it can even jump to about 1 lakh in single night.
14) This is not communicable and cannot spread from person to person.

Why you need platelets- The antibodies in your body mistook platelet as the dengue and attach to them and kill them. So till the time antibodies gets exhausted you need to keep supplying platelets. Two units are generally sufficient. (as told by someone is hospital)

Why units are very expensive- It is more than 1 hour process to extract platelets from blood through a machine and hence it is expensive. The machine takes blood and extract platelets . The whole unit is replaced for each patient which makes it an expensive process. Paras two machine is running 24 hours a day for last 2 weeks and still there is a waiting of 8 hours.

Do you get platelets from Blood Bank- You get concentrate from blood bank which is generally contains 2 to 3 thousand platelets. Hence it is advised to get live donor. When all blood bank refused one blood bank came to help which was White Cross, A-60, East of Kailash, Delhi . This blood bank gave 2 units. They need 1 unit of blood for each unit of platelet along with Rs. 1000. The cost is high if you cannot give blood. My advise is to be prepared from start and keep live donors ready.

Be alert and do things in time to avoid problems for patient. Dengue has no cure, only prevention and platelets can help. It is caused by mosquito which bites you at day time and generally in lower part of body. You can drink lot of fluid like water to ensure your platelets production is high.

Dont believe this - People who died but got alive again

Don't believe this. There is no scientific explanation for this. I have tried not to believe this but reason I am writing this is because somewhere I believe this can happen and can be true. There are many myth circulating in world but I cannot help thinking more when I heard it from people close to me who have experienced this in real life.

There are four incidents I am going to narrate which relates to people I know and they keep coming up as and when I discuss about life and death. It may seem to be a fairy tale but truth is that this has happened. Yes this has happened- People have died and has got alive again to tell what happened in those hours when others thought they were dead.

1960's
My grandfather (yes my grandfather and according to my mother this is true) was in comma for a 2 days. Suddenly he regained his consciousness the third day and was fit the very next day. Everyone and even the doctors was amazed how this happened but my grandfather had a different story to tell. According to my grandfather he was taken to a big palace and there was all good people along with Gods sitting in manner that some session was going on. When he was taken towards a corner someone told that this is wrong person which has been brought to heaven. According to him my grandfather still needs to get his two daughters married and its not his time to be brought to heaven. There was some who believed and some who did not but eventually my grandfather died 12 days before the marriage of the second daughter (not after though).
Dont believe this- It can be something in his subconscious but I believe this somehow.

1970's
This happened in Jaipur in India with Lady living next to my wife house. My wife was kid at this moment but this was something which was talk of the street. A lady died and after 4 hours suddenly she regained consciousness. She was scared like hell and was very terrified. When asked what has happened she told everyone that someone picked her up with force and she was made to walk on hot iron rods. It was so hot that she could not bear it. Suddenly someone told that this was wrong person and it is not her turn and immediately someone threw her down. When people looked at her feet it was all blue with impression of iron rods. The lady was so scared that she starting donating lot of things to needy and poor.
Dont believe this- My wife does and somehow I think she is right

1970's
This happened in a hilly region where a lady after being dead for 4 hours regained her consciousness. According to her she was deprived of all good things which she would like to eat but she was forced to remain hungry throughout ( I know 4 hours is not long time but I am telling what I have heard here). Again someone told that she was the wrong person and then she was thrown again to earth. The lady was so scared that she started donating everything she would like to eat after her death.

1980's
This happened to my close friend aunt. She died but got alive again after 6 to 8 hours. According to her she was on queue where someone was assigning them heaven and hell. When she reached there it was told that she is wrong person whose time has not come. she has a long life and her time has not come yet. According to my friend its been more than 20 years and she is alive even today.


Yes there are no scientific reasons for this but all of above people have started doing good work and donating a lot to poor and needy. I think there are many such incident which you would hear from people in India......... from people who have experienced this. The belief of people is very strong in India......obviously it is backed by great culture and past.

I believe in God and his power. though I haven't started to donate or doing something to help poor and needy but I believe The faith I have in God is so strong that at right age I would do good things to come closer to God. It may not be by donating things probably but maybe by reading and believing more in God.

If you have any experience share it here. The idea is not to ask people to do or act in some way. The idea is to know that these things happen and exist in this world which somehow we can ignore safely by talking about famous word "science".                                                              

The habit of gossiping

The habit of gossiping is bad if it affects you, your job or your performance. In most of our professional career we make friends, share our thoughts and feelings and also rely on them for advice. No one knows and probably no one cares when the talks change from concerns to gossiping.

Gossiping is harmless if you dont keep anything in your mind. The problem occurs when people start taking these things in their heads and get so immersed that their thinking and perception changes for worse. I have examples of people who have been good performers but gossiping spoiled their performance. Even in many forum I can easily judge how small issues is taking its toll on the people who are involved in it. It is disheartening that so much time goes into it that companies losses its productivity just because of this single factor. The intensity is too high when this stuff changes to bickering and politics within the organisation.

You may not know but this thing is deep percolated and is spoiling the roots of your company. Yes you cannot do things which will keep everyone happy but then solution is essentially somewhere near and not far off. Even though I think individual is to blame for most part of it but then company or an organisation should also share the blame for it. There are some decision which when taken with care stops the whole thing from root.

On individual front all I say to my people is that performance is like pregnancy which cannot remain hidden. Everything around it is all stupid. You align yourself with vision and work hard, other things will fall in its place on its own.                                                              

Job Hopping or Growth in the same Job

If this question is coming in your mind then it need a serious thought. Dont let it go just because the new opportunity will get you out of this job and would take care your monetary and other needs. It is not easy to decide and your decision will reflect in years to come.

I have many cases in front of me where the ultimate reason to leave the job is money. People talk of profile and other related stuff which seems a bit stupid to me because many times they dont even what they have to do. To me they could have grown better by staying in the same company with reasonable profile than to look for something which can hurt them in future. It is true everyone has its own aspirations but a biased decision can be futile for career.

I have been reading a lot about it and have seen different ways in which people support their decision. I have always felt pity on job hoppers because they dont stay in any company for long and is always looking for a change. This scenario is however not true for people who have grown in the organization because if they are changing the job after getting growth then one should admire it because they have taken into account the decision that is involved by weighing all risks.

I have seen job hopping as more of habit. You cannot meet your target because at back of your mind you are relaxed about it and you know you can change job at any moment. One put blame of things on other without realizing that an ultimate effort could have saved the situation. It is always advisable to fight out the best and grow rather than loose and leave.                                                              

Dont marry in India

All are advised to not to marry in India and also with Indian girl. India who boasts of being the largest democracy has laws which are truly biased. More than making homes it is breaking families and spoiling the generations from roots.

The laws are so much in favor of women that men and his family is always at receiving end. Laws are in favor of a girl and at same time it oppress the women on boy's side like hell. There are sleuth of draconian laws that you are always at mercy of the girl and her family.

Yesterday I heard an interesting case. The girl has left the family of the boy and is now demanding heavy ransom. In case the boy and his family dont pay up they would charge them with dowry laws. These laws would then put boy and whole of his family in jail without any question asked. It would be a while before the boy would come out of the jail and then the whole case would run for years in court.

The laws in India is so bad that the boy and family gets rebellious and any hope of future negotiation is completely ruled out. End result is seperation and agony which both families face. In a moment of anger things happen and repurcussions remains for years.

More than that I also see that there are girls which threat from day one and then boy family work to get rid of her. Once done they are too scared to get the girl back just because they dont want the laws to put them behind the bars forever just because the girl will do some stupid thing.

In another case which I have heard recently, the boy family is not taking the girl back in any condition. The girl intitally thretened them with false implications and now she is having it in full. She has tried everything in last 2 years but the boy and family is not willing to take her back............the reason is simple...who will help us if she does something stuping tomorrow.

Dont marry in India and to an Indian girl.......you would suffer not only yourself but would make your family suffer too. The suffering is worse and not just bad..mind it. Laws are biased for whatever reason they might be but dont do that.                                                              

Who to blame in your job

I am not sure if this is stupid no matter what it might seem from the headline above but then the truth is we dont see the fault that lie in our own approach or essentially and categorically in us as human being. We are hungry for praise but when there is a goof up hardly do we accpet that its our own fault rather than we start to blame on things which did not worked our way.


This attitude is everywhere and reason behind this is fear. The fear to loose our positin or being seen as a loser. we need a scapegoat for things which we should have owned and then it take a second for us to find that and blame it on others. People dont even think about it for a second and they have their answers ready. The other day in my discussion, the realzation i had was that people who think a lot about others definately make others as their scapegoat but indirectly take care of them after the situation improves. This is still a benign solution considering no harm is being done and you have the resolution done.

But the question abve can be asked from differnt angle, who should not be the scapegoat. i think answer to this is dont blame it on your boss becuase that wont help you. In these situations blame yourself for it only if you feel that boss would reliaze internally and would help you in future. Is boss is mean and does not care then its always better to shut your mouth.

Lets face it that this does happen and you cannot avoid it. Blunt people done care but people who do care need to think about it again.                                                              

Increase in Home Loan Interest rate- Another shot in the arm

I don’t know if this is my luck but suddenly this questions keep popping my mind “why me only”. Indian story was good and everything was in place. We saw people making money from everything and a huge burst in job market. Real estate for something where thousands was worth lakhs and lakhs was worth crores. Seemingly everyone is into everything and coming out with flying colors. Even if you not actively buying or selling, the worth of properties in hand was good enough to make you feel better.

I don’t know if I am victim but in sheer euphoria I took out decision to invest in two places. Banks like HDFC, Axis, ICICI, LIC etc. was giving you loans like anything for anything on which you put your hands on. Almost every analyst was of view that interest rate would go down and inspite correction you should go and buy. So I did and for some month the rates did got lowered but now it has crossed my rate and tenure of both my loans has been increased.

You need to be optimistic and yes I am. There is a hope that low rate would counter against the high ones in near future. The markets runs in cycle and probably I made the wrong decision. You need to sustain this phase in since property is something which have a habit of giving you something, I am hopeful that my short term investment….which now is long term would benefit me somehow.

To be straight forward, there is no option left in front of you. You need to be positive about it and wait for low interest rate to happen so that your high effect gets compensated. This is market and everyone say that best time to invest is now. I agree if you thinking of long term, go ahead for now I think these things are behind me and I am again thinking to cash in the latest bust. You need to e optimistic somehow.



                                                             

LinkedIn is worth how many dollars

LinkedIn entered the market when it was crowded but has created a niche for itself in small amount of time. It has become an instant hit at face of other sites which did not hold their ground for ling time. The concept was ideally the same but at the same time unique too. While people are now not only considering to create login but also to update them from time to time.

Given all what would be the worth of this site and who would be interested in it. It has potentially huge data base and with time it is growing rapidly with all trendy feature. The are enmarked in the journey of constant innovation and can be a force to be reckon with in future. According to me its worth will be in billions. What you guys think?
