SARCASM

                            There are a lot of things that cannot be expressed directly, indirect way of expressing those things is called as sarcasm. The sarcastic things should convey the meaning to the person whom we are addressing and at the same time, we can escape from being blamed. There are hell lot of people in this world who are never ready to accept their mistakes, the best way of dealing with them is sarcasm. It is mainly dealing with the problem related to preserving the relationship with people.

                              But the people in psychology and related fields says that sarcasm has a negative impact on people. Sarcasm can be termed as maladpative mechanism for that unresolved anger or frustration. When a person is being pointed out sarcastically, once in a while then that may be considered as a humor and enjoyed as well as the chance of committing mistakes reduces. But, when it is being done often, that might have negative impact. Sarcasm majorly requires a good level of understanding. There is a necessary co-ordination needed between the muscles of brain to understand sarcasm.

                               In certain cases, sarcasm can be implemented as tools to test the politeness and truth of conversation. There is a lot to deal with the cultural perspective of this sarcasm. Sarcasm can be avoided in business conversations and written communications. But the process of constructing sarcasm activates creative thinking. The sarcasm can be identified even with change in voice tone to a frequency of higher level. In my opinion, sarcasm must be present in order to improve the existing system rather than leading to its downfall.

LAST FEW MINUTES BEFORE EXAM

                                            This post is to just  recall  the memory of all the students who finished their college life and the same is dedicated to all the college students. In school life, we used to study most of the time. But, college education is made in such a way that, we search for portions and collect the notes the day before the exam. We might somehow manage to cover the syllabus, so that we can mould ourselves to get the pass mark.We might have studied something in home and some while coming to college, but that all doesn't help much as the friend's help during the last few minutes before the exam.

                                          This is the methodology obtained by most of the college students in their life especially engineering students, who want to get pass marks. We will eliminate those toppers who aim of getting the high scores.  Let us just focus on the average and below average students. We had one guy in our gang, he knows the working principle of almost all the electrical and electronic equipment as he has completed diploma with work experience. We just memorize the circuit diagram for each and every model or equipment. This circuit diagram's working principle will be explained in detail by that friend in 5 mins. That would be easier to understand the concept rather than studying whole night.

                                         We would have a maximum of 2 hours left before the exam and we would be worried when we fail to find that guy who would explain us the whole concepts. Understanding the concept itself a great thing to do, more than that, they have the capability to make their friends understand the concepts with such an ease. This was a never ending process, we can count the number of exams that we studied or wrote without the help of some guy who explains the concepts prior to exams, that is very few in number. Such is our dependence on our friends. Not only a single guy, certain guy might be good in explaining the numerical and derivations etc.

                                        There are certain people who are good in certain aspect. If a person is good in all the aspect that person won't involve in this last few minutes and their focus will be mainly on scoring the maximum possible mark. The gang consists of individual talents which groups into themselves and then make all the others clear that exam, but one difficult factor to overcome in this methodology, one who explains most of the concepts will score the least marks. During those days, i felt is the way we studied engineering, but now i realise that there is no better way than this.

CHINAMAN

                                  This is not my own post. just shared from wikipedia.  Chinaman does not have to deal anything with a chinese guy. this is just about a term used in cricket. Left-arm unorthodox spin also known as slow left arm chinaman, is a type of left arm wrist off spin bowling in the sport of cricket. Left-arm unorthodox spin bowlers use wrist spin to spin the ball, and make it deviate, or "turn" from left to right after pitching.The direction of turn is the same as that of a traditional right-handed off spin bowler; however, the ball will usually turn more sharply due to the spin being imparted predominantly by the wrist. Leg spinners are usually wrist spinners... right handed bowlers turning from leg to off for a right handed batsman. With the similar action, if the bowler occasionally can make the ball turn as off spin; this is called a Googly;

                                 When the left handed leg spinner bowl an off spin with a leg spin action; it called a Chinaman. The difference between Googly & Chinaman is the the former is bowled by a right hand bowler whilst latter is bowled left handed bowler with similar action. Obviously the ball deviations of say any spin (including leg spin) our opposite in case right and left handed bowlers respectively.. regular or the wrong one`' Some left-arm unorthodox bowlers also bowl the equivalent of a "googly", (or "wrong'un"), which turns from right to left on the pitch. The ball turns away from the right-handed batsman, as if the bowler were an orthodox left-arm spinner

                                   In cricketing parlance, the word "chinaman" is used to describe the stock delivery of a left-arm "unorthodox" spin bowler (though some reserve it for the googly delivery. The origin of the term is uncertain. One version relates to a Test match played between England and the West Indies at Old Trafford in 1933. Ellis "Puss" Achong, a player of Chinese origin, was a left-arm orthodox spinner, playing for the West Indies. He had Walter Robins stumped off a surprise delivery that spun into the right-hander from outside the off stump. As he walked back to the pavilion, Robins reportedly said to the umpire, "fancy being done by a bloody Chinaman!",^[2] leading to the popularity of the term in England, and subsequently, in the rest of the world.

                                   Among noted players who have bowled the chinaman is Denis Compton, who specialized in the delivery when bowling. Although better known for fast bowling and orthodox slow left arm, Garfield Sobers could also use the chinaman to good effect. In cricket's modern era, Brad Hogg is a natural spinner of the ball who popularized the chinaman delivery and has one of the most well-disguised wrong-un's. He was a member of Australia's victorious 2003 and 2007 Cricket World Cup teams, picking up 13 wickets in 2003 and 21 wickets in 2007. Kuldeep Yadav is a Chinaman bowler from India who made a successful debut in the 4th test against Australia in Dharamsala on 25th March, 2017 by picking up 4 wickets in the first innings. He is the first indian left arm chinaman bowler to debut in tests.

CHATTERBOXES

                                   This post is about the disease that is being possessed by our country. We all know that we people are very good in speaking. That is a good quality being possessed by the citizens of our country. But, there need to be some rest in between the speeches, which we forget to provide often. Speaking in private and not disturbing others is very fine and I am not concerned with those who follow the same. But, there are a few who often pretends to be busy on phone calls, even when they have come to spend time with others or did not bother about the presence of others.

                                   As mentioned in one of my earlier posts, the place, time and the launch are very important to be considered when we go on with the speeches. we must be concern about the other people who are present in the place that we are residing at present. We need not bother about the presence of others, there should be a courtesy for other human being, that we should not disturb them in any manner. These concern happens mostly during the travels when we are made to be in the same place with some unknown people.

                                 They don't even consider the presence of others, you might have the liberty to speak whatever you want and we are from such a country. But, we must also maintain the decorum when there is a presence of others. We must not hurt the feelings of others or disturb others. The volume might be reduced, usage of foul languages may be stopped and these kind of small adjustments can be made in order to ensure that we are cultured enough. These are mainly due to the cellphone network companies that provide call packages at a cheaper rate.

                                  I am not blaming the people who are speaking useful things for the development of fellow people and the nation. I am angry on those who speak unnecessary things, these unwanted gossips and useless things. They may find it interesting from their perspective, but nothing productive is going to happen. These useless speeches are done by those people whom we term here as chatterboxes.

WONDERLA TRIP - BANGALORE

                                  This is one of the important and most enjoyable incidents that happened in my life. It was a hectic week in office and everyone needed a bad break. There was a sudden plan to go to wonder la. There were a few known people, and few got introduced few days before, it was a wonderful opportunity to mingle with them. the plan was to get ready early in the morning and reach to that place which is near by Bangalore. From their a taxi or auto-rickshaw needed to reach the spot of wonder la. Though it was tiresome, i felt restless on my part, may be excitement or sleeplessness can't be defined properly.

                                  I got good sleep early in the morning, but my friends somehow managed to wake me up. I was having a doubt whether everyone would assemble getting up early in the morning was very difficult for most of them. From our place we reached Mysore railway station. We were 12 people in total and somehow managed to occupy same seater in which we were able to accommodate 12 people in 12 seats, we were interchanging within ourselves in between time. We were taking a lot of pics in different get ups.

                              A small intro about the gang.There was one more guy who is interested in photography and had DSLR camera, PC sriram of our gang. There was a guy who had a collection of hats, caps and various costumes, which made us take different pics on various poses. There was a guy who used to imitate others. A craft specialist our minion, most innocent guy in our gang who had done maximum number of loves that i had seen so far, We also had tom cruise and flexible guy does everything for the gang. The girl whom our gang imitated the most,miss.peter of our gang. then our mummy, most affectionate sister miss.fish and at last the one because of whom i got introduced to this wonderful gang.

                              We got down at motorway hotel and had some tiffen and reached wonder la, then we bought tickets and entered. There were a lot of adventurous rides, which we used to have in all the theme parks. But, the unusual experience arises, when we went to the water rides in the afternoon. There were some smart people who were able to cover the same ride many number of times, I just wanted to go for each ride at least once. Then that 5D theater, which was usual experience, still it was different due to the fun made by our gang. There was one ride which was like a disco hall. There were two columns for couple and for single boys.

                              As usual i got into the single boys, as i did not have my couples. But my friends ensured that we all were together in the couples section. It was wonderful to get drenched in water and dance for some famous numbers. Then we planned to have a train in the rain. Usually kids used to join together in the formation of train and run. They same thing we followed, suddenly a gang full of girls joined on the back of us. I was the last man standing in the gang and there were these girls who joined after me. It was the first time experience for this dance in couples section.

                              The next one was the american wave pool, this was again separated as men as well as couples, we again went to the couples section. this time, we were targeted. we carried some people in our gang and dropped in the water. Initially, I was evading but the sketch was so strong that, I got caught once. After finishing with this ride, we had something for eating, then we went for the last ride, tall giant wheel. There are lot more things that happened, which am not able to recall, anyhow these are some the incidents that I had as sweet memories in that wonderla trip.

IMPORTANCE OF TAGLINES

                                        There are many products in this world. Each product comes under one brand at the most. The brand has some catchy words which attracts the customers to purchase the product and services. These catchy words are known as taglines. We can do business without taglines, but these taglines gets the immediate attention from the customer. The taglines must be attractive as well as explain about the product in few words. The length of tagline should not be more than 10 words, as it might be too lengthy. People does not like to spend so much time on them.

                                        There is a chance of getting replacement of taglines after some decades and there are certain products and services whose taglines remain the same after number of years. We can take Adidas, the tagline states that "Impossible is nothing", it states that we can do anything while wearing a product of Adidas, though there is no possibility of doing everything, this positive tagline gives hope for the purchaser of this product. There are certain brands which have very small taglines that are worth it. Apple has a tagline of "Think Different" which means they are great innovators.

                                        There are taglines that contributed to success as well as failure of a product, certain taglines have been misleading and have resulted in failure of the products. Taglines should be made understanding the current mindset of people, certain taglines are not being changed since they are suitable for all the generations. There are certain brands that use jingles instead of these taglines, that are even more catchy when compared to these taglines. It needs some field work and understanding to frame a tagline. There would be a lot of rejection from the team that is working on it and a final taglines might take a lot of effort in it.

SOFTWARE TRINITY

                                       This is just an imaginary post and not written in the intention to hurt the feelings of individuals or hurt the religious sentiments of people. According to Hindu mythology, there are 3 gods The creator(Brahma), The protector(Vishnu) and The Destroyer(Shiva). And there are human beings who are subjected to them and monitored by all these gods. In the similar scenario, we can consider the software as the human being. There are three major departments in Software industry which are development,support and maintenance, testing.

                                        Now it is just a fiction to compare the role of these gods with those who are working in the software field. The main work done by Brahma is creation of the human being, which is similar to that of  the development team of the software. The process involves the activities for the beginning of child and till the child reaching the earth. This is similar to that of the activity of developer from the stratch code till the deployment of the code, it is their responsibility, so we can term those developers as creators.

                                      The next role that we are going to see is the protector, Lord Vishnu will protect people during their tough times and never let people down. He protects those who are created by others also. Similarly, we have the production support and maintenance people, who ensures that software is protected, up and running. They never let the software down, works hard to make sure that the software works in a proper manner. The time-span for this support is generally more, sometimes they need to create as well as test the code.

                                       The last but not the least, the destroyer known as Lord Shiva. He is the person whom we can reach by doing small mistakes. He destroys us as it is the duty assigned to him. The similar kind of role would be undertaken by the testing people. These people, would find the small mistakes present in the software and destroy them and sends them back, they don't bother about that outcomes as they never want any bugs to arise. So, this is just an imaginary post for a weird comparison, nothing should be taken in person.

PARROT ASTROLOGY

                                    Astrology is done as a prediction that may or may not work. There is an ancient tradition from people of Tamil Nadu, who used to see their astrology and thinks that parrot has a power to predict the future of a person. There would be a trainer who used to train parrot and make it act according to their wish. Usually, the parrot would be inside the cage and there would be a lot of placards outside the cage. Each placard will have a image of some god or animal or personality etc. The trainer would ask the name of the person whose astrology is to be predicted. After getting the name, the trainer would ask parrot to take a placard for the name.

                                    Following the trainer's instruction, the parrot picks up a placard and gives it to trainer. after picking the placard he sends it inside the cage again. Based on the card, the trainer or so called astrologer predicts the future of a person. I already heard that those people are not true and mostly does it for earning money. They will have a quick look at a person and based on their wealth, they will decide whether that they can loot money or not. they have some code word with the parrot, based on their instruction the parrot acts and takes a placard.

                                   Initially, I did not believe that those peoples are frauds and cheating people until I had my own personal experience. Once I went to beach, usually we should have fish and certain more eatables when we go to beach. We can play balloon shooting and play with the waves present there, nothing more than that. That day, I decided to go for astrology from parrot. I did not have much belief in astrology, but still wanted to know, whether parrot astrology is true or fake as my friends suggested.

                                  There was a guy, who was having a parrot in his hand. He told that only 10 rupees for predicting the astrology. I decided to spend the money. After hearing my name he told the parrot to pick a placard, it showed the picture of snake. He told various stories, nothing was related to me, but still I was listening. Then he told that I have committed some sin, so i need to do some rituals, then only my sins will get out from me. He told that he needs to get some statue of a snake and needs 2000 rupees for performing that rituals, that is the moment I got clear about his intention.

                                I told him that, I did not have further money and vacated that place. We wanted all people to live happily and we wanted all people to have some earnings. that is the reason we try to help these kind of people, but they don't realise our heart and think us as fools and wanted to cheat us. Parrot astrology in the ancient era, might have been good and the astrologer did not any harm to any people. But, when people started to reduce their belief in these, the astrologers started to cheat people and earn their living. This is not only in this field, there are many in others fields doing the same, I would like to conclude by saying that please don't cheat the people who are willing to help.

WHICH IS BETTER - PAST OR FUTURE

                                  It is always difficult to choose between the two, if they are many choices at least we can somehow eliminate one by one and get the result. If there are only two choices, it will be very difficult, both may be very close to right. Similar situation is to decide between the past period of our life and future period of our life. We can say an easy word that people should be worried about the present and should not mind about the past or future. But, we must understand something that past is like a investment, if there is a good investment in the past, there would be good returns in the present which can be reserved for future as well.

                                 But, there may be conditions to be applied on each and every other case. The future calculations can be made with the help of probability studies. But, there are cases in which past might have been good and present might have gone wrong and future still worse. There are a number of probabilities for each. Now, let us get into this topic. This is like let us take a child's career. A child will be happy at the maximum till 12 or 13 years. After that, it is pressurized to get more marks and they are treated like horses in races. If the horses,don't win the race, they are ill-treated, the same is with the students.

                                In certain scenario they are being told that, if we struggle and put effort in schooling, we can enjoy in college. So, student changes his mind and works hard to get good scores in school final exams. The student would be longing to go to college to enjoy, but the enjoyment of college mostly happens in arts college, not in a professional one. There would be a lot of restrictions imposed. He would feel that school was better. The same situation occurs when the student is in college, student would be asked to work hard to get god job, again losing enjoyment. After reaching a certain stage, the person might realise that previous stage was better.

                              Though a person might be financially satisfied with the position they get from society, do they have real happiness. They would have an inner feeling that previous part of their life is happy. As the person moves on they would feel that past was better in terms of peace of mind which is more important than the financial position they are at present. So, in the world of confusion, I would like my friends to decide whether past or future is better, the conclusion is on your hands as am unable to decide.

MILESTONES

                               In the general terminology, the distance to reach from one place to another would be mentioned on the roadside that can be termed as a milestone. It would be mentioning the miles left to reach a particular place. But, we are not going to see about that milestones. The achievements of persons that countable number of people in this world can be termed as milestones. Yes, we are going to see about that milestone. It is not easy to achieve certain milestone, there needs to be a lot of qualities and character to achieve the same.

                              There should be a huge determination, sacrifice,hard work,focus,target and courage to achieve. There is one man who made me realise the importance of milestone. It is none other than the great Indian Legend and maestro Sachin Tendulkar. He was the hero for most of the kids in 1990's. Most of the batting records in cricket belonged to him. The sports column in the newspaper magazines will have at-least one line about him. Such was the impact he created by achieving his milestones. He always made Indians proud.

                              There is a huge list, that needs to be published if we need to share his overall record. The milestones should be in a manner that makes us remember generation by generation. While travelling through the milestones each and every step must be kept in a careful manner, even one wrong route might result in a lag and reaching the milestone gets delayed or even stops at a moment. We must be pretty much sure about the field that we have chosen to achieve this milestone. We must love the things that we do in order to achieve the milestone.

                             We can take anyone in any field that they have chosen, no one can claim that they have achieved milestone in the field that they have chosen without loving that field.  milestones should give people pride but not the head weight. Most of the people who have achieved milestone remained humble which led them reaching more and more. I would like to conclude by saying a last line of poem " AND MILES TO GO BEFORE I SLEEP", this is thought that needs to be cultivated in a person to reach more and more milestones.

TERRFIC TRAFFIC

                                           Traffic can be anything that causes accumulation and does not allow anything to happen. Mostly everyone knows about the road traffic. But, here I would like to share about the experiences that i had in network traffic. The justification for the title can be given stating that, the network is a terrific thing that we need all day along. Mostly we depend on the telephone networks or wireless networks, broad bands and so on. The traffic in the network arises when a lot of people try to access, same URL. This mainly occurs during the reservation of tickets or release of certain trailers or announcement of results and so on.

                                          The access of that particular website would be difficult and the response would be pretty slow. There are certain times in which we lose patience and stop accessing those sites. We will look for some other time where the traffic will be less. These are the reasons why certain university results are being released overnight to reduce the traffic. According to the business, traffic might be considered as a good deed, but when it comes to the overall experience, it might not sound good. Remote backup tools, updates in the virus scanner, outbreaks of the malware, server problems in the mailer.

                                         One of the methods to reduce the network traffic can be an alternate path or url that can prevent the too much of trafficking. We can releive the operation level of the bandwith, There may be a lot of bottlenecks in the networks that can be removed or avoided. Reduce the data and information throughput. There may be a lot of costs involved in transferring large files that can be reduced. bandwidth can be increased. The reason for stating this traffic being called as terrific traffic because, it might look as small thing when we look it from outside, but when we have a deep look into this there are lot more than we expect, so it is called as terrific traffic.

AN UNFORGETTABLE MARATHON

                                Sports always refreshes us and brings some energy to us. There is nothing about winning or losing in a sport. It is just about participating and mental strength to prepare ourselves for the challenges to face. I am neither an athlete nor a sportsperson but still I like to participate in sports to know my individual competence and the team spirit I have in me. Here, I am going to share another real life Incident that happened last year. I don't remember the date, usually it is pretty hard to remember the good things than the bad incidents that happened. Anyhow, I would like to share that incident in the way that I remember.

                                The company that I worked organised the marathon event for a good cause and it is just between those worked in that company. There were four events organised based on the marathon. 2.5Km men, 5 km men, 2.5 Km Women and 5 Km women. I nominated myself for 2.5 Km event, As i did not have the confidence that I can run for 5 km. But, most of my friends suggested me that 5 km is challenging. So, I decided to take up that challenge. I asked the organizers to change my name to 5 Km. My target was just to complete the race,many of my friends wanted to win it. I just wanted to prove my capability of completing it.

                              One of my friend joined me and told that, he too just needs to complete it. So, we decided to run together and never give up at any cost. Around 100 people participated in the 5km event. But, we never bothered about those. There were a lot of ups and downs. He instructed me not to run fast which may result in tiredness and end me stopping the race. I blindly followed his instructions as I was not much aware about it. He also told me to release breath through nose and not through mouth. There were many a times, I decided to quit but he advised me not to do it. Whenever I slowed down he too did it.

                            He never wanted me to lose in the challenge i took. I had a nice partnership with him. I felt him as an energy booster, whenever I felt down he stood by me and lifted me with his motivation. He never said something special, just said some jokes which gave me energy. After a lot of struggle, I reached the finishing line. I felt really happy and thanked him. There are certain situations in which friends never let us down. This is one of the relishing incidents that happened in my life as many people might have got bored of my sad posts.


                              

LIFE - A SNAKE AND LADDER GAME

                             Anything might happen at any time in any one's life. Especially this statement is true with regards to status of a person. The events or happenings of life cannot be controlled by us. We all know about the snake ladder game. There would be a destination to reach, may be 100 if we suppose. There will be a lot of ups and downs in that game. We can't predict that who will win at anytime. You might be at the top. but there might be some snake which might make you fall down and come to the bottom position. In certain times, you might be in the bottom-most position, but the ladders can help you to reach higher levels.

                              There might be certain stages where you might not be left with any snakes or ladders. During those times, We need to make moves such that it is helpful for others. Those stages might be the last stages of our life. As the dice decides the progress of the game. It is our fate, that decides the life. Fate cannot be changed completely. it might be controlled to a certain extent possibly. There are a lot of people who have reached heights from nowhere because of their luck and good time. There are people who have been on top and found nowhere now.

                              We cannot say that the people from unknown position reached heights only because of their luck alone. They would have faced hardships, but it is not necessary that only hard work contributed, certain things might have been contributed by their smartness also. But, when the fate decided us to take to the top, not even the strongest of forces may pull us down. If the fate is against us, even the weakest of all the forces will pull us down. This is the reality, we need to accept. I am signing off waiting for a ladder.

LEARNING FROM THE PAST

                                  There are always three phases in everyone's life. Past, Present and Future. Future depends on present and past is gone, so it is better to concentrate on present, which we have right now. But, we must understand one thing. We cannot forget the past. We have to consider the past, if we had done something great in the past, We can try implementing them again. Suppose, if we have done something very bad, it is great to analyse the area in which we made the mistake and try to rectify it. This process can be termed as learning from the past.

                                   There are three aspects of past, which might be a total failure, total success and partial success. If we consider the total failure portion, we must try to change the overall implementation strategy, in the case the chance of identifying the problem and rectifying might be a bit easier. Partial success is a phase where we might have to undergo a little more analysis and get into a steps for improvement. Whereas, in the full success phase, we need to consider in improving the overall process and its efficiency.

                                   The learning not only means to learn, it has an implied meaning of earning or gaining knowledge. We can take a lot of examples from a lot of  inspirational people, who had succeeded and become renown people in the world. Thomas Alva Edison is a famous scientist and businessman. He did a lot of experiment for a single invention of electric bulb. He made use of a thousands of filaments to find the right material which makes the light to glow well and long lasting. He might have stopped with just one filament.

                                   But, in each attempt, he learned something and made a note of it, so that he need not repeat the mistake, he has committed previously. He did not give up and the learning from the past, made him to move further. There may be a lot more examples to be considered. It is not practically possible for all of them to perform like Einstein, we can at-least try few things that might help us to overcome the difficulties in the past. There will be one point of time in which we will succeed, if we learn from the past and doesn't repeat the mistakes again.

LOOK ALIKE

                                        The look alike may be either twins or the immediate parents or siblings to a certain extent. But, is there a chance of getting to see a look alike of us in real world. According to mythology, there are seven people who look similar to each other in the world. But, it is nearly impossible to look each other in the short span of life that we are living. twins can be made an exception in this case. The birth of twins is majorly due to the biological reaction happening in the parents, which involves chromosomes and all.

                                        I was lucky enough to see a look alike of me in an unknown city, but the shocking or surprising factor was, it was a girl and looked younger to me. If I were a girl and few years behind the line, I would definitely looked like that. She was also surprised to see me. But, that was the only once I saw her. I don't remember the place or time that I had seen her. There are certain incidents that never recur again. may be this incident is one among them. It might sound funny or an imagination, but i still remember that innocent smile and surprise on her face.

                                       yes, of course there were some differences in between us, but the look of similarities were also, the percentage match would definitely be more than 50%. There are a few people who are renown to this world, the people those who look like them are lucky enough. They might be called like them and treated with that name. The physical appearance majorly would be similar to that of a celebrity or a politician. I came across a lot of pictures and articles about them across the web, which made me recall that incident which happened in my life, long ago. It is a study that states that look alike are prominent since the 19th century.

                                     It is not necessary that both the look alike must belong to the same generation, there might be your look alike, who might have lived in previous century or may be previous millennium also. But, we don't have any records or proof for that. As, we all know that the people in the ancient time believed that their lifetime gets reduced, if they take photos. Even they have reduced the lifetime of earth by saying that earthquake occurred because of the picturisation of earth by satellites. these false beliefs are reduced, but still are being believed in certain parts. I was lucky enough to see my look alike once, is there anyone who had similar experience can share.

DILEMMA

                                           It is very difficult to be in a position to decide something. There will be a lot of fluctuations in our thoughts. We would be in a dilemma to take a decision. This is mainly, the wish for people to have alternatives. There are a lot of choices that would be present for us and the state of dilemma is mainly due to the confusion that we have in selecting something. This confusion can be overcome. There are few people who have clear idea about a single path and concentrate on them alone.This state of dilemma comes mostly when we are not ready to accept failures.

                                        There is nothing wrong in having a dilemma, but a final decision has to be taken. Till a particular stage, there can be a dilemma but after crossing that stage it is not at all worthy enough to continue with that dilemma. The inability of people to do something they desire and the past mistakes are the factors that contribute to this dilemma. There are some other factors like previous experiences, word of mouth from friends which may also add to this dilemma. we would like to do something, but end up in doing something else.

                                      We might get notes from a lot of people based on their previous experiences. But, we need to analyse the situations and the environment present in that situation. We should understand one thing, we need to sacrifice one thing for getting, it might be possible to get both, but we must ensure that one doesn't affect the other. There might a lot of similarities between two decisions or systems, but a slight change will be there which cannot be replicated. so, it is better to identify them and overcome this dilemma. The risks must be taken considering the impact, if the impact is less, the risk can be easily taken and vice versa.

KLEPTOMANIAC

                                        Kleptomania is a kind of disorder which creates the urge to steel without the need or profit. The persons who are having this disorder are termed as Kleptomaniacs. They cannot control their urge to steal the things as they have a great urge to do so. Mainly caused due to Increased tension, anxiety or arousal. There may be certain people who might feel Pleasured, relieved or gratified after doing this. After doing this act, they might feel themselves very guilt, shame and even fears of getting arrested also.

                                       They are not like the normal thieves, their theft occurs due to uncontrollable urge. These events occur spontaneously and the Kleptomaniacs does not have a control over the happenings. These people mostly steal from shops or supermarkets or offices or friend's places, mostly from the known places. These persons who are stealing those items, can easily afford to buy them but unfortunately out of control they perform it. The intensity of the urge to steal cannot be same all the time. It might be controlled when the intensity is low, but sometimes, it might be too high, without realizing that others are seeing, the kleptomaniacs steal those items.

                                     It is always better to consult a doctor and seek medical advice if the problem persists. They should stop the fear of getting arrested and admit the disease. This disease is curable. There is a mental health provider who does not report the thefts to authorities. The main thing they needed is support from the friends and close ones. They should not be accused of this disorder.  They should not be blamed. Their mental health condition must be taken into account and this should not be considered as a character flaw. It is a crime to blame these people.





                                         

MASKING OURSELVES

                                 Most of the things in these world are not as it look like. The appearances vary from the reality. We can take examples of advertisements as a case. We might have seen advertisement banner's which vary from the real thing we get. For example, In the Burger ad or Chicken, the size shown in advertisement is so huge, that it tempts customers to buy them, but it is not so. Definitely their is some variation, which decides the profit factor. Even this is the case with the items that doesn't have much life.

                                There will be a huge system of masking that happens when we consider the human being. Very few people will remain the same ignoring the time,place and launch. People usually changes according to the circumstances. They cannot be same to everyone and there is nothing wrong in doing so. This process of changing oneself according to the situational demands is called as Masking. The Person who is a big manager in a office, might need to remain as a simple wife or husband in home. If they are going for a party, they might show themselves in a grand manner.

                                 There are a lot of people, who are doing the jobs that they are never comfortable with and never liked to do. But, they are masking themselves as being happy and then smiling to their home. They does this job to support their family and not because of liking. Again here the probability is higher. Certain people are able to overcome these difficulties and surviving. But, there are a few who are stressed too much and find it very hard to manage professional life as well as family life.It is a very difficult task at the beginning of our career. But, as the days progress there is a definite chance of getting accustomed to the situations.

                                  In certain cases, the masking might lead to a negative result in which, there are few people who might act and cheat money from people. That also might happen, but it mainly happens through contacts from social media and other contacts. We must learn the art of negotiating them, otherwise the end result might be worse. Let us set aside the bad aspects and concentrate only on the good part of it. Whatever may be the case, it is great that a lot of people are masking themselves for survival of them as well as their family. A big salute for those who mask themselves for a good cause.

A DAY UNABLE TO FORGET

                                  This is an episode from my personal life. Not sure whether people would like it. But,still I would share it. Six years ago, on the same date 19-03-2011, I was in love with a girl, but she was not. It was just a one sided love. I faced rejection from a girl for the first time in my life, a few days ago. Actually, I did not know about her. Fell in love with her believing her to be innocent and nice character and not because of the so called external appearance or fairness. But, that was her personal decision to reject me. I can never influence her decision.

                                  I have never had any proposal to girls previously. So, I was unable to bear the pain. I decided to show my true love to her. But, before that I asked her, is she already committed. I was ready to leave her, if she had said that she is committed. But, I got a big no as response. That made my inner heart to feel that I still have a chance and did not want to leave her at any cost. I was afraid to get her phone number to make a call to her. That time, I was the representative of my class. So, I just had the mail id's of classmates and that girl too. If whats-app was present that time, I would have got her number may be.

                                  Unfortunately, she was not even in Facebook during that time, which was an easy platform for youth to get in relationship with others socially. But, I did not have that prevail-age  too. Gmail was the one who created a sufficient medium for me to chat. Since, she was a hostler, she doesn't often check the mails or messages due to the strict rules imposed on hostel may be. In that gmail chat I had, I used to ask her the reason for rejecting me. She did not respond properly and I should have concluded the chat. But, few days before 19th march, there were a lot of bad things happening around me which kept me frustrated.

                                 So, this rejection added to that, In utter frustration, I did not recognize what was happening, out of my control, I wanted her to get me poison, so that I would die. Instead of saying poison, I told the word quarter. I even felt alcohol is poisonous during that time. The next day, I realized that how bad that message was. I sent her many sorry messages. But, those sorry messages  did not even create a little impact as that of that suicide message. There was a mystery involved in it. When we move on to that date 19th March 2011. It was our 2nd semester and some cycle test was scheduled. HOD met me before the exam.

                               He asked me about the lovers present in my class, I told that I did not know and I will investigate and let him know. I told this to my close friends, they asked me about what HOD told, that guy replied that you were the one who had lovers. But, HOD's question was lovers, not about single side love. I wrote the exam and HOD came to class and told about the message he received. The girl whom i loved her name was mentioned and an indirect sarcasm was given to me as EEE don. I still did not know who was the person who sent that message.

                              HOD began to investigate that girl and she openly forwarded him the messages I sent to her. I did not know that whether she received those sorry messages and she admitted that I was the cuplrit and she was innocent. I accepted the blame and admitted that there was no mistake from her side. He began to beat me severly, I accepted it as the mistake was completely on my side. He took me to Principal room and told that this needs to be informed to my parents. I never want my parents to stand in front of that HOD feeling shame for the mistake committed by me and previously also I have never let them down in any case.

                             I begged HOD not to enclose this to my parents and I told that I would never disturb that girl in future. The overall support from the staffs were for me and most of the staffs had good impression on me Especially from Vice Principal sir. He told HOD not to make this a big issue, he looks like a good boy and give him a chance. But, I should thank the person who sent that message,  in the later part i realised that she is never suitable for me and I also got new friends because of that incident almost all the boys in my department become my friends.They might have made fun of me initially, but they were the one who stood besides me during my tough times. The day has crossed six years so far, but still not able to forget it. After that I had many crushes in my life but never had intentions to get committed to any of them.

BEAUTY PAGEANT'S IMPACT ON INDIAN WOMEN

                              We will start with the quote that "beauty does not lie in one's looks and it lies in one's heart. But, Everyone likes about the external appearances and consider them as real beauty and the inner real beauty is not being considered. There is a world level competitions that are being conducted for the real beauties. The competitions for miss India, Miss Universe etc. These competitions are being conducted to promote the foreign brands in India. That is the reason that they gave the title to Indian Women. They might be beautiful but still the award was given just for their business.

                              India being the second largest populated country in the world, They targeted Indian market and gave awards to these women. After reaching the market, they stopped doing so because of the fact that, they have reached their target. Did Indian women win after that year, not at all. Did India fail to produce any other beautiful women? The answer would be a certain no. Still, this Created Impact that fairness creams and other cosmetic items create beauty to them. These products are no substitute for the Indian products, which were from herbal plants and had medicinal values also, But they did not believe in that and started to use imported products, which became a setback later.

                                I would like to say that these beauty pigeons had a bad impact on the Indian women. They misunderstood the term and the women started to use these creams and related items to become fair. They started to realise the truth that these creams are giving just temporary fairness and the real beauty never comes with these. This is for majority and am not mentioning about all the women. There are some women who never used these and promoted those products but still maintained their beauty. There are some more who were real beauties by heart and did not bother about the color of the skin or so.

                               The color, fairness and the related items are temporary things in the world and the real beauty lies in the heart. There are many who know this truth and are happy in this world and those who failed to realise them always worry about not having the so called fairness beauty. The natural methods of beauty products did not have any side effects and they life expectancy was long but due to the influence of the chemical and artificial flavors for adding beauty has increased, the life expectancy reduced. So, I would like to say, that it would be wonderful if women be pure in heart and men should look for that heart rather then external appearance.



                                

INVESTMENT DECISION

                             It is always a wise decision to invest in either gold or land or stocks, shares, bonds debenture etc. The sole aim of this investment is to earn profit and utilize it for future purpose. But, we must understand one thing before investing. That important thing is the return we get back. The return is basically high when compared to the investment in terms of the value in most of the cases. but, when we consider the Net present value, the returns might not be greater than investment. So, we must be very careful in that decision.

                             Net present value is nothing but the amount we receive in future divided by the interest rate. Suppose we are investing 10,000 in a bank and get back 15,000 in the next year, it has more value than getting 3,200 for the next 5 years. Since, the value of 3200 gets reduces each year and would not sum up to the the value of 15000, we get next year. There are certain constraints which are usually involved in determining this investment decision. They are mainly price, quantity,tax, exchange rate and so on. We must have a clear idea of the risk involved before taking the decisions. There may be a minimal risk, higher risk or medium risk.

                            If we consider two stocks having same variance, then the stock with maximum return will be selected. Suppose, if there are two stocks or bonds with same return, then the stock with the least amount of variance will be selected, since the risk involved will be lesser in that case. Mostly, the stock with the highest net present value and the least variance would be selected. Suppose if there are 3 different types of stocks one with lower return and low variance, medium return and medium variance, high return and high variance, then the decision might depend on the investor, It mainly depends on their utility.

                          In certain cases there is a co-relation between two decisions we make. If there is an average return of Ice cream shop is $100 and there is a deviation of $10, the risk involved is low. If we again invest on another shop, where there is a deviation of $20 and the average return of $100, if one goes on well, there will be a direct implication on other and it will do well and vice versa. This shows a positive co-relation. Suppose if a hot drink shop is introduced and involved after the first icecream shop, there is a negative co-relation with icecream shop. The ice creams would be preferred in summer where hot drink won't do good business and vice versa.

                          If the relationship is inverse either one of the business would do good. The risk involved in positive co-relation is high which just enhances the total risk involved, whereas in the other case, the negative co-relation is low which reduces the total risk but the returns may not be as high. Here comes the confusion of choosing between the two. It is again based on the investor's perspective. Low risk involved means returns will be less and vice versa. In rare cases, returns will be high with less risks.

LEFT HAND HABIT

                                     The usage of hands for every people varies. There are two hands,so the people may be either a left hand user or a right hand user. Either of the hand would be more dominant while using. A study was found out that there are only 10% of people who are using left hand as dominant hand. but, most of the people have the habit of mixed handedness, certain tasks will be performed by one and certain tasks would be performed by other hand. Ambidexterity is the art of using both left and right hand equally at the same time. This study states that only 1% of people possess this ambidexterity.

                                      This usage of hands is mostly revealed while writing, playing and performing some other activities. There are more left handers that are found in men when compared to women. Ultrasound is one of the factors which may affect child's brain and might cause them to become left handed. Another study states that if the weight of the child during birth is low, the probability of being left hander in that case is high. If we consider sports, the left hander is considered as southpaw. It was surprising for me to know that, the International left handers day is celebrated during 13th of August every year.

                                      Now, let me come to the Indian context, there are very less left handers in India when compared to other country. In most of the homes, they consider the usage of left hand is not good for them, according to their tradition or custom. Usually, most of the child have the usage of left hand during their childhood. But, it is a custom for them to change that habit and make their child to use right hand. They must understand one thing, it is never so. In fact left hand people may be less in number but the ratio of achievements done by left handers are more when compared to right handers.

                                      The process of changing left handers to right handers is like a sin being committed, it is scientifically proven that there is nothing wrong if a child uses left hand. It is an unique feature that they can be proud about it. But, many people fail to understand and get into the habit of changing them. This process changing this habit is like expropriating the freedom from the child at their early ages. I request people never to do this to a child and let them grow as a left hander, if they have that natural habit.

                                       Some of the famous Indian left handers are our Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Amitabh Bachan, Ratan Tata, Sourav Ganguly etc.

CAREER PLANNING

                                         Each and everyone in this world needs a career path that needs to be followed. usually everyone wants to move from a lower position in their career and reach the higher levels. But the preference of each and every one's career path varies. The five major factors which a person might consider before choosing their career path are Job Security, Good salary, Good working environment, Job satisfaction and Company's image. The one who feels that all these are fulfilled for them, is the most happiest employee in this world. It is rare occasions in which at least 3 or 4 of these needs are fulfilled. Some of them have 2 of the five satisfied and rest would any one among them. Some don't even have one.

                                        The first most important thing in that is Job Security which mainly occurs in government jobs, where people feel that their job is secured and have unions if any kind of threat or issue with jobs to resolved their issue. When we take the salary into considerations, the corporate are the place where there is a huge salary being provided but the change of remaining in that job is very less. Working environment is better in those companies compared to government jobs. There are lot of people who are not satisfied with the jobs they perform but doing it for the sake of running their family. Mostly, the image of the corporate companies are always high till they get stuck in any kind of legal issues and the reputation of the company is not getting damaged.

                                        A working person mainly depends on the salary earned, with the help of which their needs are satisfied. The next importance would be for the security of the job, the person might be happy with the job they have and salary they might get, but if there is any fear of losing job, then he might commit a lot of mistakes. The last important thing is job satisfaction, the liking towards the job one does. Even it can be compromised as far as he is getting salary and job is being secured. The remaining two are not given much of an importance and they both are interdependent. I would consider that we must plan a career that ensures job satisfaction and security, which automatically helps us perform better which further results in increment in salary. There must be a very less botheration for remaining two.

PARTY CULTURE

                                 Enjoyment is needed for each and every person in their life. A people living without enjoyment is a waste. The enjoyment varies according to the people. A kid likes to play in water, a teenager guy might like to ride a bike and so on. There may be many enjoyments for each person and it may also be common for few people. After starting a corporate culture, the new joiners would have exposure to party. They might have attended parties after schools or colleges, but that would not have been organised in such a big level. It is totally a different environment. The parties are organised to get well along with all the teammates.

                               At the initial stages of party, he might be new to it and enjoy a lot. But, after certain period of time, it becomes a routine and might feel disinterested in it. The parties are not only organised for the big level events. Even small achievements need to be given party. It may be the occasion of birthday,wedding day, promotion, service anniversary, completion of certificate and so on the list extends. But the level of parties vary according to the achievements. Some people have got the mindset that just to attend them during the time of dining. There are some more parties which might bring on the club culture encouraging drinking and smoking.

                             Drinking and smoking is never bad until it disturbs others. If you drink and smoke and enjoy yourselves, without causing trouble to others, no one would consider it as bad. But, this happens very rarely. We might have heard many cases of harassment and so one that mostly happened due to this party culture. Every person have an animal nature inside them, when something generates it, it comes out and makes crime happen. I am not saying party is the only reason for occurrence of crime. Party might also be one of the driving forces of it.

                             I understand that many parties have been held without causing any danger to any of them. But there are certain parties which have also created trouble and survey has stated that these crimes have been increased from the beginning of this party era. I would like to say people to take it as an opportunity to interact with people and avoid misbehaving even if we get chance with them. So, on positive note I would like to conclude by saying that parties are needed as a refreshment without causing trouble to others and enjoyment to all.

LOVE FOR BEARDS AND MUSTACHE

                              A difficult phase in a person's life is the teen age, where the person to undergo transition from a child to an adult. If a girl has attained that age, there will be a function held and announcements would be made that, there is a girl who is eligible for marriage. This custom mainly happens in villages and some parts in the city. But, here we are going to have a look at the life cycle of a boy turning into a man and not to that of a girl. The time a boy becomes man, he might be given the freedom and need to be guard for the women in his family. He might have to bring sister from tuition or mom from the bus stop and so on.

                             The initial indication of this phase is given by the break in his voice, the boyish voice gets converted into male voice. The initial phase of their mustache are visible in the mirror. It mostly occurs from the age of 12, for some person it might get delayed also. That small mustache gives him immense pleasure that, he has developed into a man. At the initial stages, there would be very little amount of mustache. He would love to grow a large amount of it, in the mean time. Once, the mustache grows, he might get bored of it and look for the beard. He would like have the stylish beards as that of his favorite actors or sportsmen or so.

                              At the initial phase of his life, he would love to grow beards and mustache and showcase them to all his friends and family. He would never forget the feeling of shaving his beard or mustache to grow it longer. He might have approached a barber shop or sometimes may use his one equipment like shaving razor or trimmer. But, there would be a restriction in the schools or colleges that he should not grow beards and all. After having a good growth rate of it, he might get bored of shaving them often. You all might think, it as a waste of time to spend for shaving and trimming, but real men will know the greatness of growing them.

                               The person who grow long beards are often compared to saint or called as love failure guys sometimes. It is not so, it is their liking for beards.But, there are also some scientific reason behind it, beards prevent skin cancer, reduces symptoms of asthma and allergy. It reduces infections and act as natural moisture for us. It also prevents the exposure of sun and prevents wrinkles on face.  In the olden days, the growth of beard happened on a regular basis, which also prevented these diseases. But, now a days we think the person growing beard as uncultured and uncivilized and the clean shaven men are gentleman. It is not so.

                               Growing  the beard is their personal intent and please don't disgrace the men who are growing beards. There are various styles which men would intent to have but due to their gene or so, they won't develop the style they liked. But, they are even spending money to grow these kind of beards. Many men have the habit of growing the beard and mustache. It may be grown to impress others, but it would definitely give immense pleasure and confidence level to a person. Dedicated to all men.
