My highs and lows in 2009

Today is the last day of year...2009.After some hours we are going to enter into a new day of course with the beginning of new year 2010.

This year in 2009,I have seen many high and lows of my life.

Currently at this time I am unable to take any type of decision what to write or what not to write? In 2009, I had gained lots of experience from the world.(World included my personal experience,professional experience,social experience)

From Personal Experience:- After completion of my 2 month Summer Internship in Anandrathi Financial Services Ltd, I gained how to learn from the others and got the ability to understand psychological behavior of people.

From Professional Experience:- In the last week of August, I received a call from Maersk Global Service Center India Pvt Ltd, Pune, on the designation of Finance Trainee.....a good enough post to start up my career. Here I am able to use all the management skills upto my fullest. Here I started to acquire knowledge from my colleagues & I heartly think that this will continue in the forthcoming year 2010. Have started expecting more responsibility than now.

From Social Experience:- Cant say anything much about my social experience...almost it was adventurous.

Here I would like to state a saying which I have started utilizing in my life.....

“An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves.”:-Bill Vaughn

I hope that the year 2010 would be great for me.

History of Santa Clause

Santa As a champion of children and the needy, he was legendary for his kindness and generosity.The most influential figure in the shaping of today's generous as loving Santa Claus was a real man {St. Nicholas of Myra (Now Turkey)}.Santa was a 4th century Bishop.
Because of his wisdom and sensitivity, many People groups claimed St. Nicholas as their patron saint. Children, orphans, sailors, and even thieves often prayed to the compassionate saint for guidance and protection. Entire countries, including Russia and Greece, also adopted him as their patron saint, as well as students and pawnbrokers.
St. Nicholas tried to help others while inspiring the to imitate his virtues.The image of the stately saint was transformed onto an almost mystical being, one known for rewarding the good and punishing the bad.
St. Nicholas' Day is still observed in many countries, and gifts are exchanged in honor of the spirit of brotherhood and charity that he embodied.
In some countries, the festivities of St. Nicholas' Day were merged with Christmas celebrations, and although the gift-bearer took on new, non-religious forms, he still reflected the saints generous spirit.
In Germany, he appeared as Weihnachtsmann, in England as Father Christmas, and in France, as Pèrè Noël, who left small gifts in the children shoes.
AMERICA:- In the 1600's, the Dutch presented Sinterklaas (meaning St. Nicholas) to the colonies. In their excitement, many English-speaking children uttered the name so quickly that Sinterklaas sounded like Santy Claus. After years of mispronunciation, the name evolved into Santa Claus.
Because of his goodness Santa is very essence, in every kindness we do, Santa will always be remembered.

Merry Christmas

No One Wants to Die

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Sachin & SENSEX

Some Days before i find a mail in my mail box,Its related to Sachin Tendulkar and SENSEX. It was a worth while reading mail.In this mail there are positive Co-Relation between A world Famous Indian Cricketer Sachin Tendulker and also a reputed Financial institution Index SENSEX (Bombay Stock Exchange).This is a case study for Financial Market Research Analyst.

When Sachin Makes a century or making a good score,the BSE Index Sensex goes Up,thats means market has gone up. Some of The statistics are taken from 2000 to 2009.
U. W. M. B. C. A. Welegedara (yes, those initials are right!) is the new hero of Sri Lankan cricket. As a late replacement in just his second Test match, yesterday he cleaned bowled the great Indian batsman Sachin Tendulkar - for just four runs.

And that's not good news for the Indian stock market.

Sachin Tendulkar is, arguably, the best batsman ever. He's certainly scored more runs in international cricket than anyone else – nearly 30,000 of them. When he hammers a century on home soil, the whole country cheers right up. Including the Bombay Stock Exchange's Sensitive Index (Sensex).


This Bloomberg chart below indicates that on 75% of trading days after a domestic Tendulkar ton – the blue bars show the daily percentage move - the Sensex rose. Indeed, the index ticked up following each of the last seven centuries by the 'Little Master'. So any more swing bowling successes from Mr Welegedara won't go down too well with the local stockbrokers.

But there's a much bigger picture here. The Sensex has more than doubled from its early-March lows. And despite last year's massive sell-off, the index has risen almost three times in five years to within 18% of the all-time high in January 2008.

Now the Sensex is looking ripe for a pullback. Firstly, the Indian Reserve Bank has started tightening monetary policy and "higher policy interest rates are only a matter of time", says Kevin Grice at Capital Economics. Interest rate hikes are generally bad for share prices as they increase the returns investors can get elsewhere.

Second, as Grice also points out, "valuations are now expensive, and the risk that the near-term outlook surprises on the downside appears far greater than the possibility that India's economy can continue to beat expectations". In other words, the market is pricing in plenty of good news that may well not materialise.

Before writing this Article i had make an post on Facebook and Twitter.I got some vry interesting answer,Some of the answer are :-
Both belongs from Mumbai ETC

Whats In a Name!!????

Somebody rightly said whats in a name?But Now a Days Name is Everything.For the sake of small publicity a big and powerful group of people change anyone's name.Some days before i heard a news orrisa government has changed Orissa to Odisha.And their local language oriya is now Odia.
A few year back Banglore were getting used to Bengaluru, they've decided to add another tongue-twister to your vocabulary.And Another recent controversy of Name recent released film "Wake Up Sid" In this Film the actor used word Bombay Instead Of Mumbai.And for this director-producer Karan Johar who was forced to not just issue a public apology on the use of `Bombay' but also add a disclaimer to his film `Wake Up Sid'.

In times where being politically correct means not asking uncomfortable questions, the change in nomenclature was approved by the Union Cabinet without discussion. It will get Parliament's nod soon enough.

While Shiv Sena turned Bombay to Mumbai and similar political compulsions dictated changing Calcutta to Kolkata, our history is replete with examples of regional demands for name changing -- whether it is state, language, street or chowk. Erasing fancy sounding British names to earthy Indian ones is a favoured political pastime though it is unclear what dividend it pays.

After Independence,there are many cities they have lost their historical name,They are renamed by influence of some other earlier renamed cities are Kanpur (formerly Cawnpore), Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), Mumbai (Bombay), Chennai (Madras), Kolkata (Calcutta), Pune (Poona) and Kochi (Cochin).And there are many name to come in future.

I am very scared of renaming.Thanks to politician INDIA is Still India,Bharat or Hindustan.

MY Professional Experience(MAERSK LINE)

Just one month back i have joined MAERSK LINE GLOBAL SERVICE CENTER,Pune. About MAERSK LINE,its world no 1 shipping corporation.It has around 125 countries presence.

हिन्दी दिवस : हिन्दी नहीं अंग्रेजी को बोलबाला

एक ओर जहां तमाम सरकारी और गैर सरकारी सगठनों द्वारा हिन्दी दिवस के अवसर पर मातृभाषा हिन्दी को सर्वश्रेष्ठ भाषा बताकर तमाम काम काज हिन्दी में ही निबटाने का लोगों से आह्वान किया जा रहा है। वहीं दूसरी ओर प्रखंड के विभिन्न सरकारी गैर सरकारी शिक्षण संस्थानों सहित अधिकारियों द्वारा हिन्दी की उपेक्षा की जा रही है। ऐसे लोग अंग्रेजी भाषा का प्रयोग करने में अपना बड़प्पन समझते हैं। यही कारण है कि एक दूसरे से मिलने पर नमस्कार प्रणाम, सुप्रभात, शुभरात्रि की जगह लोग गुड मार्निग, गुड इवनिंग एवं गुड नाइट का ही प्रयोग करते हैं। इतना ही नहीं विभिन्न सरकारी गैर सरकारी विद्यालयों के शिक्षकों द्वारा अब मां पिताजी भैया बहना आदि का संबोधन करने की बच्चों को प्रेरणा नहीं दी जाती है। इसकी जगह मम्मी डैडी, ब्रदर, सिस्टर कहने की बच्चों को शिक्षा दी जाती है जिससे कि बुनियादी तौर पर ही हिन्दी पर कुठाराघात कर अंग्रेजियन थोपा जाने लगा है। राज्य सरकार ने भी विगत दिनों से हिन्दी की उपेक्षा कर अंग्रेजी को बढ़ावा देना शुरू कर दिया है। यही कारण है कि पुलिस विभाग में हिन्दी शब्द 'आरक्षी' के बदले 'पुलिस' का प्रचलन कर दिया गया है। कुछ माह पूर्व तक आरक्षी, आरक्षी अवर निरीक्षक, आरक्षी निरीक्षक, अनुमंडल आरक्षी पदाधिकारी, आरक्षी अधीक्षक आदि का प्रयोग होता था, जो हिन्दी में था। परंतु अब इसकी जगह पुलिस, पुलिस अवर निरीक्षक, पुलिस निरीक्षक, पुलिस उपाधीक्षक, पुलिस अधीक्षक का प्रयोग किया जाने लगा। राष्ट्रीय स्तर पर हिन्दी को बढ़ावा देने के लिए विभिन्न रेलवे स्टेशन, बैंक सहित विभिन्न जगहों पर हिन्दी में काम करने संबंधी स्लोगन लिखे रहते हैं। परंतु व्यवहारिक तौर पर हिन्दी को नजर अंदाज कर अंग्रेजी में ही काम काज किया जा रहा है।

Reality Show or Skin Show

One Day i am watching TV at my home,M not a frequent user of watching TV.I tune to sony channel where one of the reality show was in the air.This is the very popular reality show of the sony entertainment channel.I was shocked.....Is this the reality show......what a vulgur type of content they are showing....That was not a reality show that was skin show....and the celebrities those who are participating in the show they are fearlessly doing all the crap things....

Are they are doing everything for the money......?????
Is money is everything for them.....??????

These are the big question we have to thing........And one more thing Broadcasting ministries knows everything,,than how can the department gives the permission to show these types of reality show...........Had any one ever think....what type of message they are delevering to the society..specially for the newer generation.

Indian television has boomed with reality shows. The much famous 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' (KBC) started a new trend that resulted into the sure-shot way of entertainment for the viewers and oodles of moolah for the makers.
Soon, one after another every popular channel was boasting about its own reality show.

The list of shows is long, but the latest addition to it is Iss Jungle Se Mujhe Bachao on Sony entertainment television.Apart from an interesting concept, the show is doing well due to excessive skin show and frequent use of abusive language.
Tuesday's episode of the show blew everyone's mind with the new entry- Negar Khan in a towel and then enjoying the sprays of water in her extremely revealing two-piece bikini.
Before Negar's skin show, this role of adding the glam quotient to the show was played by the bahu of Indian television, Shweta Tiwari.
She too flaunted her curves in the tiniest bikinis and became a hot item.


The other much spoken about show in the recent times is Sach Ka Samna. The bold concept of the show is a rip-off (oops! remake) of the famous English reality show- The Moment of Truth. The show is already making headlines for its bold, controversial questions mostly to do with notorious topics like sex and extra marital affairs.
Talking about bold reality shows how one can forget MTV Roadies. The baap of all reality shows, the infamous 'Raghu' and 'Rajiv' have befriended *beeps* on television. Abusive content is like a style statement that they flaunt with attitude.
Needless to say, MTV Splitsvilla too follows the footsteps of the former but, with curvilicious women flaunting their assets in addition.

As far as skin show is concerned, the recent reality show- MTV Fast and the Gorgeous too is not far behind. Sexed-up women raised the bar of success of the show, making it one of the most watched show on television.
Bigg Boss, the Indian adaptation of the infamous Big Brother too has bagged in extra brownie points by planting contestants like Rakhi Sawant, Kashmera Shah, Sambhavna Seth, Payal Rohatgi, to name a few, to their advantage. Brewing love tales and hot stories too work in their favour.
And, let's not forget the 'meanest game show on television', Dadagiri. Just like many other shows, this too has managed to bag several controversies in its kitty. The renowned 'slap video' of the show is still making rounds on the internet. As the name suggests, the show is known for the violence, abusive language and cleavage show too.
If you might have noticed, most of the shows are a total rip-off from their original shows in English. And when we say 'total' it has to mean literally with the similar situations and comparable publicity stunts. Big Brother (Brazil) could be a perfect example to it!
After witnessing all this, we zero down with a BIG QUESTION. Is it ethical to air such content on television? Especially after knowing that Indian families prefer watching TV together. Is the content appropriate for family viewing?

Today, the dominant content of the shows telecast are violence, vulgarity and sex.

Are reality shows crossing the line? Are reality shows toying with Indian sensibilities? Do you think such shows are apt for family viewing?

SLOW DANCE

SLOW DANCE

Have you ever watched kids

On a merry-go-round?

Or listened to the rain

Slapping on the ground?

Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?

Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

You better slow down.

Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.

The music won't last.

Do you run through each day
On the fly?

When you ask How are you?

Do you hear the reply?

When the day is done

Do you lie in your bed

With the next hundred chores

Running through your head?

You'd better slow down

Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.

The music won't last.

Ever told your child,

We'll do it tomorrow?

And in your haste,

Not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch,

Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time

To call and say,'Hi'
You'd better slow down.

Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.
The music won't last.

When you run, so fast to get somewhere

You , miss half the fun of getting there.

When you worry and hurry through your day,

It is like an unopened gift....

Thrown away.

Life is not a race.

Do take it slower

Hear the music

Before the song is over.

Capitation Fee:-Captivating The Indian Education

Yes, indeed education is bought or rather sold like a commodity in this country, where it is also worshipped like a venerable Goddess by all. What a paradox! And this sale-purchase is happening in almost every other educational institution and is not confined to any particular state or stream.
Though, everyone including the agencies that are supposed to be regulatory bodies are aware of this racket but none has ever initiated any move to weed out the menace of capitation fees. The reason behind this is very simple, education is a lucrative trade, controlled by politicians and their cohorts.
Even as lakhs of Indians rush abroad to get foreign degrees, the government continues to patronise the politician-businessmen nexus, controlling this sector, thus undermining the future of a billion plus people.
An artificial shortage created by the license-permit raj regime has ensured that education in India remains choked forever. Both the quality and quantity of education in the country remains below par, barring few institutions.
Higher education has been milched in states like Karnataka, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Kerala. The country has around 400 medical colleges, out of which more than 200 plus are in these five states, owned, controlled and run by politician-cum-businessmen.
This art has almost been perfected, which is evident from the fact that a place like Puducherry (Pondicherry) has seven medical colleges. Such is the clout of these men with the policymakers that they manage to dictate policy and when required, escape the clutches of law.
All these issues come to fore every year during the admission season and are forgotten after that. But it's a matter of our future and we need to take a stand. Let not the smoke die down this time. Come share your thoughts on the mess in the educational system and how to cleanse it.
