How to make friends in a new city?





Having Friends is great.

But to have a good and true friend is what matters.

It does not matter where you live every place is the same and the people are same.

The matter may become worst if that friend could become cause of chaos in your family and your privacy.

People will be always ready to become friends, two people become friends when they think the same thing and have same views. Be careful - while making friends.

Nowadays, most people just enjoy to watch more of T.V. rather than to gossip with others and to make friends. Friends for them are disturb mongers in their privacy. But they do not know that good friends sometimes are very helpful in our needy hour or day.

By interacting with friends sometimes good information is collected which could be best utilized. But it is other matter that commonly people gossip and enjoy discussing other people's activities.

The invention and introduction of mobile contributes greatly in expanding friends circle. Everyone has a mobile these days, if you want to keep your friends and expand your friendship just use this. Of course overindulgence will give you problems in many ways.


Rain Water Harvesting - Solution










My heart sinks when I see people going around everywhere in search of drinking water and water for their daily use.

Then after meditating I visualized a solution which is the one that could bring in total relief to the needs of people.

By nature God has given abundant water for man's needs but men are just wasting it making it flow through storm water drains. It is thus so simple to just click on to the water God gives and live happily.

One of my friend has in his house rain-water harvesting installed and he is totally free from water needs. He does not go begging for water from outer sources. You too can be free if you harvest the rain. But I know not all people will be able to do since they do not have place to do it. Here is what the Government should step in to help people.

Though I have discussed the solution for Bangalore people in India, this can be followed by government all over the world.

Water scarcity will hit all over the world unless some drastic steps and solutions are not found out to combat it.

Below I plan out a method to combat it.

We know that there is abundant source of rain-water which flows over to the drains and out of the city.

Our aim will be to collect and store this rain-water for our scarce days.

We know that owners of site measuring 2400 Sq.ft. are asked to compulsorily do rain-water harvesting in Bangalore, but these do not apply to 1200 Sq.ft. site owners i.e., single site owners.

Presently only some 25,000 households in Bangalore have installed it and some more houses will install it. But majority of households will not and they will not be able to. It is water from these people we have to collect in and store.

Most of these people are from middle-income group and hence the Government has to step in and invest in rain-water harvesting. The rain water passing through the roofs of these single site owners has to be made to flow through pipes which are laid for this purpose and made to flow to under-ground and to the pit constructed right in the middle of the road.   We see the roads are laid in such a way that it never allows rain-water to sip through.   And there are cement roads!





Yes, right in the middle of the road sump/pits are to be constructed for collection of rain-waters. These sumps/pits are to be closed with concrete slabs to withstand the weight of the vehicles passing above it. The clean rain water has to fill up these pits during rainy days.   The sumps can measure according to the roads size etc.   It is advisable to have a rectangle sized sumps.    When we are able to cover man-holes and the vehicles pass over it,  it is not difficult to cover these sumps and allow the vehicles to pass over it.

For every 10 to 15 or even 20 row houses one sump maybe built and the water can be collected in this sump to increase the ground water level.

These sumps strictly need to be used for collecting rain-water and for nothing else. The sumps should have a small hole so that periodic inspection is done to see if public have been letting only clean rain-water.

Some places may also be earmarked (not playgrounds) for construction of big sumps. A water tank need be constructed by the side of it and the water pumped above during abundant rains. Immediately next day onwards the water has to be released from these tanks to the very sump where the water was collected from.

Once these plans gets way there can be improvisations as when it becomes necessary with new ideas.

The funds as said should come out of Government treasury. Big companies and I.T. Industries can also donate for this noble cause.


Even small water tanks can be constructed at many places by the side of the road for the very purpose of storing water drawn from the sump/pit. The water has to be released as soon as the sump/pit has the place to receive it. Never should the water be stored in over-head water tanks just like it is stored in dams for hay-days.

We see the roads are tarred and asphalted giving no way for the water to sip in to the ground when it rains. These tarred and asphalted roads need to be dug up and sumps/pits are to be constructed in a strong way so that vehicles above can pass through without any problem.

The over-head water tank should not be used for storing water for hay days. It should be released immediately when the sump/pit has place to receive it.

The importance of playground has not been given importance by the law makers and the civic body. These playgrounds not only serve as a playground for children to play but during rainy days these can become the catchment areas for collection of rain water and storing.

Right under very deep into the playground big water tanks may be built but care should be taken that the above ground is always fit for playing by children in a natural way.

The playground should be well covered with mud and sand or even grass for the children to play freely.

It is thus important that every layout formed has sufficient large grounds earmarked for playgrounds which serve both the purpose as a playground and as a rain-harvester.




Traffic Chaos




If you are in Bangalore, India, you would have noticed the number of new vehicles that are running on the roads is increasing each day. It finally culminates in heavy traffic and traffic jams.

Not much difference we would find in other states of India, and in other parts of world.

Earlier in ancient days people used to walk or ride horses, later came the bullock cart with wheels. No doubt people in those days used to move in horses, a wishful thinking comes to us - ah.. if only those days return and there are no vehicles on the road polluting atmosphere. But will those days return?

What's the best solution to remove the traffic jams.

Government should put in more buses on the roads and give them free accessibility to roads. They should have their own tracks. Other vehicles should be barred using these roads.





Strictly no broadening of roads should be undertaken, because people will start buying more vehicles and become a cause for polluting the atmosphere and contribute to Global Warming.

People should be encouraged to use bus and bus alone.

BUS BUS BUS is the only answer to come out of all this trouble. All other vehicles should be given so less a place to maneuver that they should go automatically off the roads.

When buses moves it should be given V.I.P. treatment on the roads. There should be no one way roads. Two way roads will minimise the time of traveling and distance. Every road should be only broadened that much that it could hold three buses on its width. Travelling by bus should be made cheap and other modes of travelling very costly. Thus indirectly penalise the perpetrators of Global warming.

Tax the car and two wheeler owners more.

Other idea could be that number plates with odd numbers should ply on one day and number plates of even numbers should ply on the other day. It should be made applicable to all cars, bikes and scooters. By this way half of the vehicles (Cars, scooters and bikes) will be off the roads.


Stop giving new permits to autos. Remember the lesser the vehicles on the road, lesser will be pollution and lesser consumption of fuels for future use. More importantly it reduces pollution and increases the health of people living in the vicinity.

The only solution is to run quality buses on the roads both big size buses and mini buses to connect to remote areas and small roads.



chemotherapy




13th Nov 2010

Nearly one in four cancer patients in England is diagnosed only when
they arrive at hospital in an emergency, a national study suggests.

In the cases of acute leukaemia and brain cancer, half of cases were
only discovered at a critical stage.

Cancer Research UK said more education was needed to
recognise symptoms.

The survey suggested those on low incomes, elderly people and the
under-25s were the most likely to be diagnosed at a late stage.

Only 3% of skin cancers went undetected until the emergency
stage, compared with 58% of brain cancers.


Chemotherapy.

Chemotherapy is a treatment option for many cancer patients. Many times, chemotherapy is a combination of drugs referred as "anti-cancer" medications.

Chemotherapy stops the multiplication of Cancerous cells.

Cancer is caused by the out of control multiplication of cells. When these cells break free from the original site, the cancer spreads. Chemotherapy stops this multiplication of cancerous cells. In order to have it completely wiped out of your body you will need many sittings.. Approximately Rs.6,000/- is charged per sitting. ( Appollo Hospital, In Chennai, India)

Administration of Chemotherapy.

Chemotherapy is administered intravenously, in a pill form, by injection, or even applied to the skin. The frequency or duration of chemotherapy all depends on the type of cancer you have. It varies from patient to patient and often the treatment schedule is according to successes in trial studies.

Chemotherapy results in loss of hair. But it grows later hence it is no problem.




Shivaji The Boss - Rajnikanth






The Story of the Film

Sivaji (Rajnikant) returns from US who is a software engineer and wants to use his earned money for social good and upliftment of poor. He decides to start a free medical college, and a free hospital, and faces a number of obstacles en route by way of corrupt officials and a political kingpin who sabotages his work. Beaten down by politicians, he decides to take matters into his own hands by overhauling the entire system using his own private army of supporters. Meanwhile, he romances Tamilselvi (Shriya), who unfortunately has been told by an astrologer that her future husband is doomed to die soon.

Styles

Loaded with Rajni-style antics such as flicking coins, acrobatically bouncing chewing gum around, and swapping guns from hand to hand whilst flying through the air, the film has a lot to offer for Rajni fans, and also has the usual social development message featuring Rajni as the Messiah. The song picturizations are good and very entertaining. But the film is very long overall flawed by a weak plot, too many repetitive action sequences, and a extremely poor editing.

Criticism

Though the actors have performed their parts well but we can see that it is one of the worst kind of direction. The director has miserably failed to bring out the talents in each and every actor especially Rajinikanth and Vivek.





Both Rajinikanth and Vivek are expert comedians but they have been underutilised by the director and comedies are not that good to enjoy laughing.

The title "THE BOSS" is only on paper but in actual the hero never could exhibit himself has a BOSS just like he did in `Badshah film'.

The villain has not been shown to his mark. Suman who is a good actor once again has not been utilised properly. The villain never exhibits the terror that he should exhibit.

All in all if any other director instead of Shankar had directed the film probably he would have shown a better interest in the plot and characters and had given lives and thrills into all characters.

It is Director Shankar who is the blacksheep of the otherwise that was supposed to be a good film.



Chennai Super Kings Vs Kolkata Knight Riders




Chennai Super Kings looked to lose their first encounter but in the end it was not to be. Dhoni lead his team to a nail-biting two-run victory.

The Knight Riders needed just four runs of the last ball to register their first victory with SRK in the stands watching, but Southee the Kiwi seamer delivered a brilliant yorker that Rajat Bhatia hit for one run and it was all over.

Recalling the last over, Dhoni said: "For the last ball, I was confused between the two options - yorker outside off, or yorker at the batsman's feet.

"First, we compromised and went for outside-off yorkers, but later I thought with the field we had, it was good to go with the batsman, towards the batsman.

"Because, then, even if he hits the ball, there are two fielders to field it, and he will have to hit a brilliant shot through midwicket to get to the boundary."

Anirudha Srikkanth scored a brilliant 64 that eventually won him the Man of the Match award. He was always looking for runs, but for Balaji's superb spell the score would have been some 20 runs more for CSK and Srikkanth.
