Chennai Vs Bangalore, this time not for Water but for Cricket!!!!


The Champions league has reached the business end of the tournament and the semifinalists were decided last night. The two IPL teams are going to clash against each other on Friday evening. Bangalore, which has strong mixture of youth and experience, is ready to take on the exuberant Chennai Super Kings.

  Earlier, it was not an easy game against warriors last night. The batting collapse left Chennai in the dark proving why cricket is considered to be the funniest game!! Chennai was not able to capitalize on the last few overs and eventually they finished at 136 for 6 in 20 overs. This was not a competitive score and Chennai must win this game to find a place in semi-finals. We all know Chennai always comes back strong when pushed to the wall and they did it again last night. They defended this score with some spectacular catches and sharp fielding and bowling efforts.

  Not very often we would see a cricket match where both teams are happy about the result unless it is a tie. Warriors had to score 109 runs to qualify for semifinals even if they don’t win the match. Chennai Super Kings must win the match to qualify. Both these happened last night and as a result Victoria Bushrangers were shown the way out!!! The bowling effort of Chennai, especially the spinners, was splendid last night. The last over by Murali showed the world the justification for wearing the 800 number t-shirt (The world knows it anyway and it does not need justification from the genius).

  One more interesting thing which happened last night was the frustration Murali showed when Badrinath was not passing the ball quickly to him for a run out chance. That was a difficult chance but there was an opportunity. Badri tried his best but was not up to the mark on that occasion. The reason I mentioned this incident is not often we can see frustration or anger in Murali’s face in the cricket field. This clearly indicates what that match meant for Chennai Super Kings.

  Dhoni once again impressed the world with his shrewd captaincy by including one more spinner in the line up for that pitch. He was frank enough to accept that there were some week links in batting and bowling department which need to be corrected.

Cannot wait to witness the IPL Clash in Champions League !!! 



Do all relationships come with the past? Soch Lo!


Soch Lo, the movie which is about to hit the screens soon, comes up with an interesting concept which is nothing but the title of this article. This title is more complex than it appears to be. The answer to the question posted can be YES or NO. But the best part is we will not be having an acceptable evidence to support any of those answers!! That is where the complexity of this topic builds upon. Making a film with this kind of concept where you will have to convince the multitude of audience, who will have their own opinion irrespective of the evidence, is like taking a bunch of people through the darkness without even a clue about the way. If a person can convince and take those people home even through that darkness, he is the leader. Such is the complexity involved in this topic and that is why I am very excited to see how the complexity is handled!!

Everybody has their own opinion and that is why the caption of the movie says "SOMETIMES relationship comes with the past ". I like that approach personally because the movie is not trying to establish a conclusion but trying to find a way to interpret. Believe me, that is how one can convince people. My opinion to this beautiful question would be that most of the times relationships do not come with the past. I basically believe in this because the actions which are happening in our lives are just coincidence. Meeting a person accidentally is categorized as a coincidence according to me rather than a past relationship. A person likes the other person when the latter is the incarnation of what former wanted to do but not able to. That is where the opposite's attraction comes into play and that might even be the why South Pole is attracted to North Pole!!

When I go to watch this movie, this is going to be my opinion!! Is this movie going to convince me?? Or does this movie have something other than this in the store?? .. Excitement began already!!

A Half-baked Media!!


  "Pen is mightier than sword" is the famous maxim which clearly explains the power of journalist and the divinity of that profession. I personally admire journalism as it is one of the top rated professions. Why is this profession so powerful??  What distinguishes journalists from engineers, doctors and many more ?? The only reason that makes them powerful is their ability to make or break the nation. This is because their profession is to inform people about everything under the sun. Information is more powerful than nuclear missiles. That is the reason I said that Journalists have the power to make or break the nation.

Is our Indian media performing this divine job at least with the least amount of divinity?? If you ask me to answer this question, I can give a straight forward "No". I am very confidant about this answer than the answers which I had given in the past years during my schooling !! The reason for blaming the media to be half-baked now days is because of the type of info the media is providing to the people. Daily, there are hundreds of flights taking off and landing successfully. Have any of us seen a headline reading "123 Flights landed successfully and all passengers enjoyed the ride " . I can bet all my wealth if you can show me a headline like this. 

Instead, what the flash news would be reading is "Plane crashed into the sea and more than 300 feared dead" with clear, high resolution pictures depicting exactly where they got hurt and which part of the body they lost and many more. If you want to see how best a photographic skill can be, then watch these Indian Media headlines. They should have provided this information without hurting the mindsets of other people. People should not think that air travel itself is dangerous but that is how they would think if headlines read like this. What should have been the least spotted is occupying the headlines!!

When twin towers were shattered by some ill-thinking gentlemen, one of the leading televisions showed exactly what happened by using caricatures. They won award for this creativity. They used toy air plane and exactly replicated what happened while others where taking high resolution photographs of the dead!! That would not terrify even a 3 year old child. Hats off to that kind of journalism!! 

While giving lecture to a group of students, a 14-year old girl asked Abdul Kalam for his autograph. He asked what her goal in life was. She replied, "I want to live in a DEVELOPED  INDIA ". Abdul kalam appealed to the nation, "For her, you and I will have to build that DEVELOPED INDIA". Great words from the greatest man!! We can never visualize our Developed India unless the pillar of the nation, Media, starts doing justice to what is called one of the most respected professions in the world.

Please don't  spoil my nation just for TRPs (Television Rating Points) .

Netherlands and Uruguay square the circle, as FIFA 2010 gets even more Unpredictable!!!


World's most watched sport got underway few weeks back and the exuberance kept on increasing day after day. Upsets have been the feature of world cup events whether it may be cricket or football and FIFA is no exception either. The clash of top 8 teams in the quarter finals was a treat to watch. The most demanding game in the world was at its very best. Netherlands played the game of their life to show the exit door to Brazil. Brazil looked ordinary or may be they were made to. The clash between Uruguay and Ghana was the match of the tournament. Who would not want a match to be decided in the penality shoot out ??

Apart from the sports that is played on the field, I personally loved the energy off the field. We feel as if we are involved in the match even though we watch it through television. I always wonder what is present in this game which makes the world crazy about it. Now I realized that it is not the game which is making people crazy about it, but the way it is played and the passion with which it is played makes people dance to its tune. Every one's face is filled with determination to do something for his country and they run continuously for 90 minutes in search of the minute which will make them find the ball in their goal post. Believe me, it is not easy to run continuously for 90 minutes keeping yourself ready to catch hold of the opportunity even at the 90th minute.

What a game!! What a passion!! Really a game to watch especially when upsets take over !! 

Ray of hope to prevent OXIdative Stress!!


Oxidative stress is the word I have been hearing quite a lot nowadays. First I thought it would be yet another kind of stress and left as it is. But later when I started to hear this word as a reason for most of the diseases, my curiosity did not leave to leave it alone again. When I started to dig it, I found that while breathing highly reactive molecules called free radicals will be produced and this could cause damage to the cells. Our body is capable of producing anti oxidants to tackle this activity but the production is not enough. If these anti oxidants are not limited it could lead to oxidative stress which inturn may lead to cancer, alzheimer's disease, parkinson's disease and many more.

Oxidative stress is a very serious deficiency considering the impact it can lead to. Although fruits contain anti oxidants, it is not sufficient enough to limit the free radicals. When searched web for a solution, I found that a company has come up with a concept of Ergotheoneine. This Ergotheoneine is an amino acid , naturally occurring anti-oxidant, found in microbes and mushrooms. The company has found a way to extract and supply this world wide. The ERGO can conserve and maitain levels of other anti-oxidants such as vitamin E, vitamin C and glutothione. The anti ageing consumer product attracted me the most and there are numerous natural consumer products available in that company. Investors can definitely target this company for penny stocks as it is growing very fast in the vital field of oxidative stress.



Raavan – The Perspective!!

What if you fall in love with a woman whom you tried to kill?

 

What if Sita comes to know the reason behind her kidnapping?

 

What if Sita’s mind oscillates towards Raavan after knowing the reason?

 

What if peace talks lead to a war?

 

What if Ram creates a decoy with Sita to kill Raavan ?

 

What if emotions and success correlate with each other with one man taking former and the other taking latter?

 

What if justice dies and injustice rules?

 

What if sides change bringing us to a place where the right becomes wrong and vice versa?

 

         Our understanding really changes when we look from opponent’s perspective even if the opponent is a criminal (according to police records). The above questions arouse in my mind after watching the movie. Especially when Aishwarya Rai pleads God, “Show me the bad people as bad people”, we come to a conclusion of who are bad people and who are not. And in the end, Raavan sees his own life in Sita but Ram uses Sita only to take Raavan’s life.

Bogus thoughts!!

 Getting an idea to write something is really tedious. Thoughts come to me when I never think anything. But in a compulsion if I squeeze my brain and activate every cell to think something, all I get are bogus thoughts. I call them bogus as I never know if they have any meaning in them and in the end my face gives ugly look thinking, “Why did I think like this?”  Most of these thoughts would be about relationships, human tendencies, and some of my funny behaviors.

  One such thought that I keep pondering is the mystery behind life. Life originated from a single cell, if that is the case, amoeba should be our forefathers. God created Adam and Eve and from them entire world and its human race took birth. If this is the case then how can the children of Adam and Eve marry each other (I think they should be called brothers and sisters)? If those siblings created further offspring then why should we have this much restrictions in relationships? If these things are true then every one of us should be related in some way and the entire world should be fraternal. Then why should we fight for caste, creed, language, community? In the end what I feel is, everything is meaningless if we really think of the things we consider meaningful! If you are confused by the above statement, please don’t think much as it is also meaningless.

 These thoughts make me feel abnormal. And according to many, abnormality is a disease! And my final question is, “Are these thoughts bogus?” 

Showcase dolls!!

Dolls are arrested behind the bars and spectators watch them from outside in a normal showcase. Dolls do not react and cannot too. But the spectators comment on those dumb dolls. This is the normal scene in any house or bungalow or exhibition. The topic that I am going to deal now is people inside A/C bus. They can see others and comment on them but others can never get a hint of the person sitting inside the bus. Labeled as high class these people prefer to travel in such a bus to add some more pride to their status.

                        When watching beggars from the bus they give an ugly look on them (Thank God! Those beggars cannot see that look!). They feel the country’s economy is at the bottom but they are also gratified that they are not one among the downtrodden. Most of the passengers read books or magazines just to avoid speaking to neighbors and maintain the status quo.  They can have visuals like an overloaded auto, overcrowded vestibule buses, trembling movement of motor bikes, old ladies striving to cross the road etc. The complete economy of the country comes in front of you when travelling in an A/C bus but again the passengers close their eyes and have a deep sleep for that one hour too.

                         What  a pity?? Instead of getting instigated to do something to uplift the nation, most of them show mere indifference. Even these showcase dolls are dumb!!!!

Parents or Pay-Rents??


If you ask me whether I have felt God anytime in my life, I would say that I am living with God who is there in my home in the name of Parents. Everyone who wishes good for you from the bottom of his/her heart is God. I can bet you that no one other than our parents can bless us from the bottom of their heart because only parents don't have jealousness over our growth even after we ditch them in old age homes. The last three words before the previous full stop is what this article is about. It is painful even to write about that but some people send their parents to old age homes and pay rents. The worst part is not paying rents but they have the sense of satisfaction that they have done their duty for the parents. What an inanimate person he should be?? Will we bear this if our children treat us like this?? They surely will because a goat's kid cannot be a lion. We can only reap what we sowed. That is the universal truth.

Statistics says old age homes are increasing day by day. Does that mean there is a decline of humane and humanity??Surely yes. He who cannot show respect and love to the one who suffered years to bring him up to the position he is in, can never qualify himself to be called as a person having sense at all, leave alone 6th sense. Your parents would rather be with you starving for a square meal rather than being aloof somewhere without you. That's why parents are the most precious people on earth and God resides in them.

Just take a moment off and recollect what and all they have done for us. They would have starved for a square meal those days but had they ever made us starve even on one occasion?? They would not have got proper education but hadn't they given us the richest education even though they earned pittance?? They encouraged us when we falter and they motivated us when we got defeated. They were the one who felt excited when we started walking. They were the one who were ecstatic when we started talking. They were there to give us their shoulders when we wanted a support. They cooked the delicious food for us but they starved. They sculptured this life of us. 

Any human who have the slightest amount of wetness present in his heart would not send those beautiful creatures of God to Old age homes. I would not say serving our parents is humanity. It is the foremost duty of every human. Failing this duty would never make you successful even though you get opportunity to get Nobel Prize.

If the above happens, then it must be the first time wherein Nobel Prize is given to an ignoble creature!!

When we are there to take care of our parents, who are these old age home guys??  

Inhuman beings please excuse!!

 

Guest Post :: Doesn’t True Love command Respect??

   Love is the best feeling that one can experience in this world. For those who are and who were in love, the period of time for which they felt this ‘true’ love and care would be the best period of their life. 

   Life would seem to be all new and exciting like never before when love blossoms. Life would be smooth and enjoyable when that love matures. Slow winds of friction leaves scratches on hearts as love passes few months. A ‘true’ love will heal these scratches and will proceed forward but other kinds fail pathetically.

   Are we notfeeling that there is a new trend that is slowly spreading everywhere? Is true love vanishing slowly? Yes. People have started losing their patience. They aretrying to ignore their problems instead of solving them. When a small misunderstanding arises with their loved ones, people have started to thinkabout a break up immediately. They just forget the good old days and they look forward for the future. The relationship break ups are on the increase everyday.If this continues there won’t be true relationships, for which we are known for, our culture is known for. 

   The reasons forthese relationship breaks are mainly due to poor planning and non-futuristic thinking.  In a rush of hormones, love starts and moves ahead. But when the future stands in front of their eyes -status, career, parents’ happiness and acceptance, character, frequency,wavelength, past and current relationships and what not – everything comes into consideration. If these things are taken care initially and when they makematured decisions, life and love will be hassle free without break ups. Do not love a person, if you think you will not be successful in the end. There are no complaints on a mutual break up but people often turn extremely selfish that they do not even think about the counterpart - when one wants to hold on with the relationship and the other wants to break, the former’s heart breaks intopieces. 

  Life would seemto be over for a true lover when his love comes to an end. Stop breakinghearts, respect true relationships – life in this world will be beautiful.
