Question; Think that you lead a public organization that serves orphans, poor peoples, physically challenged ones etc…In that peak moment of helping the world, if ur beloved one (like best friend, spouse, lover, life partner etc) ask you to choose either him/her or the organization, which one would you leave? Org or ur beloved one? Why? (Sent on 29/5/2011)

Top Answers:

“To say the truth, I’ll choose ma organization only…My frnd or my life partner may ask that qustn tats their wish… but tis is my whole life ambition. My org is the thing which gave reason to my life for a single person’s heart, leaving many of my love expecting heart is not the right thing. Will make him or her to understand my heart… and hearty thanks to Chax for asking such a qstn tat made my heart n mind to know abt my thoughts. And for sure my frnd will not say like that and to ma life partner I’ll explain everything before marriage itself. ”- Sindujaa SIET

“I enjoyed analyzing myself for this qtn… If I give up the org, then it wud be an end of something that I really thrive to do as long as I can.. It’s a crazy thing to be restricted from doing good to the wayworn hearts… I cud agree if the restriction is on going pub, parties or whatever the bull shit it is but.. but to leave an org for my beloved one never sound good.. And I cant define such a one as my beloved.. Being a girl, being restricted really matters… I respect his wishes and as the same he should respect mine as well. Helping the poor is not a sin and it wud be sinful if I give up for other’s selfishness ”- Jishi IIT

“Org may be my world but if I’m the only world for my beloved one, I can only think of respecting his or her emotions. This world may have many people but being our beloved is our luck.. Whom else he or she can restrict other than me? I’ll stick to it… But I’ll try my level best to like what I like to do”- Sherie Brezina SRM

Think that you show great dedication, dependency and love towards some person (May be your best friend, lover, mom, dad, bro, sis, wife etc). You cant imagine a life without them. In half way, if you tend to lose such person but in a compulsion to live. How would you lead your life from that pain of losing your best companion? How wise should we move then?

TOP ANSWERS:

  • Loss is an inevitable thing in our life.. A loss by getting cheated or a natural loss has immense difference. But the outcome from the affected person should be positive. Your loved ones would be happy when you succeed inspite of pain. Such success mean a lot than any kind of victory.. Can pen down a lot of such recovering tips but really its hard.. – Jishi IIT


  • I love my Kavitha Mam.. She too like me as a student $ love me as a daughter. Once she told “I felt proud when you are rewarded in stage”.. She is no more in my college. Now she is working in SRM. I miss her badly. Now whenever I’m rewarded feel her presence so I’m working for rewards am happy tat I’m making her Happy.- Dayani Christo LITES


  • It is very difficult to live without the person whom we loved and cared a lot. It is really like losing something in our life. But we are intended to live without them as the situation needs us to survive. So we can always do things which they would have done if they were alive. And we can make them happy by doing good things that they want us to do always. As it is always believed even if a person dies his soul lives as its immortal. Death is not in our hands so we must always learn to cope up. Live in the memory of them and do good…. Shruthi SIET


  • 1) Engaging ourselves in work that we love
  • 2) Must not spend time lonely
  • 3) Look for another good person who can understand us and try to transform that love to that person
  • 4) Should be confident and believe in yourself 
  • 5) Should not be carried away by temporary happiness – Vyshu SIET


  • If that person is the best then I don’t think we should lead a life without that person – Sindhureha SIET


  • Concentration matters. Every one of us know very well that its very hard to live without our loved ones. Try to concentrate on other activities which relaxes youy. It should be so powerful that you will tend to forget that person who left you. This helps us to move our life forward . But whatever we do, the trace of the person whom we loved more than our life will remain forever in our heart. – Jula Rashmi ACCENTURE

Cryonics

CRYONICS

What is Cryonics?
Cryonics is the practice of preserving human bodies in extremely cold temperatures with the hope of reviving them sometime in the future. The idea is that, if some one has "died" from a disease that is incurable today, he or she can be "frozen" and then revived in the future when a cure has been discovered. A person preserved this way is said to be in cryonic suspension.

To understand the technology behind cryonics, think about the news stories you've heard of people who have fallen into an icy lake and have been submerged for up to an hour in the frigid water before being rescued. The ones who survived did so because the icy water put their body into a sort of suspended animation, slowing down their metabolism and brain function to the point where they needed almost no oxygen.
Cryonics is a bit different from being resuscitated after falling into an icy lake, though. First of all, it's illegal to perform cryonic suspension on someone who is still alive. People who undergo this procedure must first be pronounced legally dead -- that is, their heart must have stopped beating. But if they're dead, how can they ever be revived? According to scientists who perform cryonics, "legally dead" is not the same as "totally dead." Total death, they say, is the point at which all brain function ceases. Legal death occurs when the heart has stopped beating, but some cellular brain function remains. Cryonics preserves the little cell function that remains so that, theoretically, the person can be resuscitated in the future.


The year is 1967. A British secret agent has been "frozen," awaiting the day when his arch nemesis will return from his own deep freeze to once again threaten the world. That day finally arrives in 1997. The agent is revived after 30 years on ice, and he saves the world from imminent destruction.
You'll probably recognize this scenario from the hit movie, "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery" (1997). Cryonics also shows up in films like "Vanilla Sky" (2001), "Sleeper" (1973) and "2001: A Space Odyssey" (1968). But is it pure Hollywood fiction, or can people r eally be fr ozen and then thawed to live on years later?




The science behind the idea does exist. It's calledcryogenics -- the study of what happens to materials at really low temperatures. Cryonics -- the technique used to stor e human bodies at extremely low temperatures with the hope of one day reviving them -- is being performed today, but the technology is still in its infancy.

In this article, we'll look at the practice of cryonics, learn how it's done and find out whether humans really can be brought back from the deep freeze.

How is Cryonics Performed?
If you decide to have yourself placed in cryonic suspension, what happens to you? Well, first, you have to join a cryonics facility and pay an annual membership fee (in the area of $400 a year). Then, when your heart stops beating and you are pronounced "legally dead," an emergency response team from the facility springs into action. The team stabilizes your body, supplying your brain with enough oxygen and blood to preserve minimal function until you can be transported to the suspension facility. Your body is packed in ice and injected with heparin (an anticoagulant) to prevent your blood from clotting during the trip. A medical team awaits the arrival of your body at the cryonics facility.

Once you are transported to the cryonics facility, the actual "freezing" begins. Cryonics facilities can't simply put their patients into a vat of liquid nitrogen, because the water inside their cells would freeze. When water freezes, it expands -- this would cause the cells to simply shatter. The cryonics team must first remove the water from your cells and replace it with a glycerol-based chemical mixture called acryoprotectant -- a sort of human antifreeze. The goal is to protect the organs and tissues from forming ice crystals at extremely low temperatures. This process, called vitrification (deep cooling without freezing), puts the cells into a state of suspended animation.

Once the water in your body is replaced with the cryoprotectant, your body is cooled on a bed of dry iceuntil it reaches -130 C (-202 F), completing the vitrification process. The next step is to insert your body into an individual container that is then placed into a large metal tank filled with liquid nitrogen at a temperature of around -196 degrees Celsius (-320 degrees Fahrenheit). Your body is stored head down, so if there were ever a leak in the tank, your brain would stay immersed in the freezing liquid.
Cryonics isn't cheap -- it can cost up to $150,000 to have your whole body preserved. But for the more frugal futurists, a mere $50,000 will preserve your brain for perpetuity -- an option known asneurosuspension. Hopefully for those who have been preserved this way, technology will come up with a way to clone or regenerate the rest of the body.

If you opt for cryonic suspension, expect to have some company. Several bodies and/or heads are often stored together in the same liquid-nitrogen-filled tank.

Has Anyone Been Preserved Using Cryonics?

Doz ens of people are being stored in cryonic facilities. Probably the most famous of them is baseball legend Ted Williams (see below). But no one has actually been revived, because the technology to do so still does not exist.
Critics say companies that perform cryonics are simply bilking people out of their money with the promise of an immortality they cannot deliver. Even scientists who perform cryonics say they haven't successfully revived anyone -- and don't expect to be able to do so in the near future. One of the problems is that, if the warming process isn't done at exactly the right speed, the cells could turn to ice and shatter.
Even though people in cryonic suspension haven't yet been revived, living organisms can be -- and have been -- brought back from a dead or near-dead state. Defibrillators and CPR bring accident and heart attack victims back from the dead on an almost daily basis. Neurosurgeons often cool patients' bodies so they can operate on aneurysms -- enlarged blood vessels in the brain -- without damaging or rupturing them. Human embryos that are frozen in fertility clinics, defrosted and implanted in a mother's uterus grow into perfectly normal human beings.
Cryobiologists are hopeful that a new technology called nanotechnology will make revival a reality someday. Nanotechnology uses microscopic machines to manipulate single atoms -- the tiniest units of an organism -- to build or repair virtually anything, including human cells and tissues. The hope is that, one day, nanotechnology will repair not only the cellular damage caused by the freezing process, but also the damage caused by aging and disease. Some cryobiologists predict that the first cryonic revival might occur somewhere around the year 2040.

A Famous Hitter is Frozen in Time
Since his death in 2002, baseball legend Ted Williams has been stored in a 10-foot-tall, stainless steel container at Alcor Life Extension Foundation in Arizona, the world's largest cryonics facility. His head is reportedly being stored in a separate container.
But the story doesn't end there. After his death, the famous slugger became embroiled in a rather bizarre custody battle. His daughter, Bobby-Jo Williams Ferrell, fought in court to get her father's body back so that she could have him cremated and his ashes sprinkled over the Florida Keys, which she claims was his wish. She accused her half-brother John-Henry Williams of wanting to preserve their father's body so that he could cash in on his famous DNA. But John Henry and his sister Claudia said they had signed a pact with their father in 2000 promising to have all of their remains frozen. The three siblings finally reached a settlement: Ted Williams was allowed to stay where he was, and John-Henry promised not to sell any of his father's DNA.


The History of Cryonics
The first person to be cryogenically frozen was a 73-year-old psychologist, Dr. James Bedford, wh o was suspended in 1967. His body is reportedly still in good condition at Alcor Life Extension Foundation.
The idea that a person could be frozen and then brought back to life when the technology had evolved far enough originated with the book "The Prospect of Immortality," written by physics teacher Robert Ettinger in 1964. The word "cryonics" is derived from the Greek term for "cold."
By the late 1970s, there were about six cryonics companies in the United States. But to preserve and then maintain each body indefinitely was so expensive, many of these companies wound up closing shop by the following decade.
Today, only a handful of companies offer full cryosuspension services, including Alcor Life Extension Foundation in Arizona and the Cryonics Institute in Michigan. In early 2004, Alcor had more than 650 members and 59 patients in cryopreservation.

Shame On Jealous People... Stay Away From Them

| | Posted On


"Jealousy is a symptom of a severe case of low self-esteem, 
and it’s a disease that can eat us alive." -- Rene Godefroy

Mitshuca is a dazzling teenager with a sparkling smile that any toothpaste company would envy.  She has an earthy and effervescent personality.  She is the essence of femininity.  Simply put, she is a masterpiece!  But there is one problem. Many of her
schoolmates are jealous of her beauty. How sad! Is Mitshuca better than they are? No!!!!
History is replete with people who were short, tall, ugly, and even disabled, who shattered the ceiling of doubts and limitations to change the world for the better. You see, it’s not what’s on you that is important, it’s what’s in you! Being attractive is not a rite of passage.
It doesn't guarantee us anything in life. Jealousy is a symptom of a severe case of low self-esteem, and it’s a disease that can eat us alive. That's why jealous people are often angry.
We all, at some point, suffer from low self-esteem. However, disliking another because of what he or she hasis almost like living life at the level of the beast.
Perhaps you wonder why I feel so strongly about this issue. I promise you, I am not a victim. I just feel sorry for those who are dealing with jealous people such as friends or family members. Mitshuca can’t change a thing about her beauty.
She can only keep in mind that her good looks don’t mean that she is better than anybody else and strive to be humble instead of pompous or arrogant. That’s all she can do. Besides, the real beauty is that which is inside.
There are unattractive people who radiate and glow in the presence of others because of their positive and upbeat attitude. On the other hand, there are some very attractive people whom we can't stand being around because of their attitude.
My friend, jealous people are distractive by nature. You can't let them distract you. No person can take away what God has in store for you. Keep knocking on doors in spite of what others may say about you.
As you strive to reach your maximum potential, you are bound to meet many jealous people. Please be compassionate to them. They are sick and they need help. Try instead to boost their self-esteem by stroking their egos.  
I wish you incredible success!

The Secret to Surviving Change And Stress in The Workplace

| | Posted On


By Rene Godefroy
A year ago, I made a trip to the village of my birth, a small community in the

Haitian countryside. I had been away in America for many years, working hard to make my way in the world. At the time, I have heard the term dealing with stressful changes.
I returned now to my island, filled with strange stories to tell...Stories of markets piled with food flown in from around the world, stories of doctors who gave out pills to stop people from eating, and stories of cars so abundant that they clogged the roads and slowed the traffic to the pace of a bicycle. Basically, I was telling them about the stresses, changes and the lack of gratitude.
I told my fellow villagers,  “You know, American problems come from having too much, rather than too little. And because of these problems, they have what they call stress. And they take trainings called stress management. They also takes classes on how to cope with changes.” 

They couldn’t believe me! They had never heard of stress before let alone stress management in the workplace. To them changes are just as normal as the sunset. You know what? I had not heard of those terms myself until I came to this country.
Shortly after returning from my trip, while eating in an expensive restaurant, I watched a woman send a Porterhouse steak back to the chef because it had been cooked medium instead of medium-rare. Later, I watched a man who was dining with her struggle to decide whether to have orange sherbet for dessert and stick to his diet or splurge on an ice cream sundae dripping with caramel and piled with pecans. Does any of this sound familiar?
You are not alone. Many times I am faced with such dilemmas. But I see it as an opportunity to have an attitude of gratitude. How do I do that? Well, I imagine a mountain of breadfruit! Do you know what a breadfruit is?
You don't often see them in American grocery stores. Breadfruits on the outside look a little like a pineapple. But they taste like a tough, extra-starchy potato. As a child, I ate almost nothing but breadfruit.
The folks in my village learned to cook it creatively. We boiled it, we fried it, and we beat it to a pulp and dipped it in sauce. But every day it was breadfruit. My tongue grew so accustomed to breadfruit that I ceased to taste it at all. I ate it only for survival.
Have you seen those children on CNN or the Sally Struthers commercials? How did you feel watching the naked children with skeletal arms, ignoring the flies crawling on their faces? Well, that's what I looked like in my village in Haiti. Most people assumed I would die before I reached adulthood. They even told me so.
So when my steak arrives a little too well cooked, or I have to choose between ice cream and sherbet, I don't sweat it. I give thanks to God for the great fortune I've had in America. When was the last time you took a moment out of your busy schedule to really have an attitude of gratitude for all that you have?
My friend, take it from a once malnourished child in a Haitian village. The best solution for stressful changes in the workplace or your personal life is to simply be GRATEFUL. Gratitude is the gateway to happiness. After all, it's good to have a job.
Those on the umployment line can testity to that. Yes, you should always strive for more. But more only comes when we are grateful for what we have. Does that make sense to you?
Did you know that it is totally impossible to be grateful and be stressed out at the same time? Ah! Now grab a pen and write everything you should be grateful. I mean write everything down even if it's ridiculous. Don't let your intellect slow you down. WRITE EVERYTHING DOWN!
I bet you enjoy helping out a grateful child—one who is always thanking you and praising you for your generosity. Well, that’s the way God feels, too. No matter how bad things are, you still have plenty in your life to the grateful for.
Besides, if you think you are having it bad in this abundant land, I have some folks in my village who want to trade places with you. And remember to create your gratitude list. Trust me, don't dismiss this idea of creating a list. It is the best solution to take care of your stressesful changes.
So, there you have it. Whether it is stress management in the workplace or in your personal life, that will take care of it. Make a gratitude list and count your
blessings!
I wish you incredible success!

Unlock your Self Improvement Power

| Labels: , , , | Posted On

When we look at a certain object, a painting for example – we won’t be able to appreciate what’s in it, what is painted and what else goes with it  if the painting is just an inch away from our face. But if we try to take it a little further, we’ll have a clearer vision of the whole art work.

We reach a point in our life when we are ready for change and a whole bunch of information that will help us unlock our self improvement power. Until then, something can be staring us right under our nose but we don’t see it.  The only time we think of unlocking our self improvement power is when everything got worst. Take the frog principle for example –

Try placing Frog A in a pot of boiling water. What happens? He twerps! He jumps off! Why? Because he is not able to tolerate sudden change in his environment – the water’s temperature. Then try Frog B: place him in a luke warm water, then turn the gas stove on. Wait til the water reaches a certain boiling point. Frog B then thinks “Ooh… it’s a bit warm in here”.

People are like Frog B in general. Today, Anna thinks Carl hates her. Tomorrow, Patrick walks up to her and told her he hates her. Anna stays the same and doesn’t mind her what her friends says. The next day, she learned that Kim and John also abhors her. Anna doesn’t realize at once the importance and the need for self improvement until the entire community hates her.

We learn our lessons when we experience pain. We finally see the warning signs and signals when things get rough and tough. When do we realize that we need to change diets? When none of our jeans and shirts would fit us. When do we stop eating candies and chocolates? When all of our teeth has fallen off. When do we realize that we need to stop smoking? When our lungs have gone bad. When do we pray and ask for help? When we realize that we’re gonna die tomorrow.

The only time most of us ever learn about unlocking our self improvement power is when the whole world is crashing and falling apart. We think and feel this way because it is not easy to change. But change becomes more painful when we ignore it.

Change will happen, like it or hate it. At one point or another, we are all going to experience different turning points in our life – and we are all going to eventually unlock our self improvement power not because the world says so, not because our friends are nagging us, but because we realized its for our own good.


Happy people don’t just accept change, they embrace it. Now, you don’t have to feel a tremendous heat before realizing the need for self improvement.  Unlocking your self improvement power means unlocking yourself up in the cage of thought that “its just the way I am”. It is such a poor excuse for people who fear and resist change. Most of us program our minds like computers.

Jen repeatedly tells everyone that she doesn’t have the guts to be around groups of people. She heard her mom, her dad, her sister, her teacher tell the same things about her to other people. Over the years, that is what Jen believes. She believes its her story. And what happens? Every time a great crowd would troop over their house, in school, and in the community – she tends to step back, shy away and lock herself up in a room. Jen didn’t only believed in her story, she lived it.

Jen has to realize that she is not what she is in her story. Instead of having her story post around her face for everyone to remember, she has to have the spirit and show people “I am an important person and I should be treated accordingly!”

Self improvement may not be everybody’s favorite word, but if we look at things in a different point of view, we might have greater chances of enjoying the whole process instead of counting the days until we are fully improved. Three sessions in a week at the gym would result to a healthier life, reading books instead of looking at porns will shape up a more profound knowledge, going out with friends and peers will help you take a step back from work and unwind.  And just when you are enjoying the whole process of unlocking your self improvement power, you’ll realize that you’re beginning to take things light and become happy.

 Our Member and popular writer Rafeena's Book release held on 27.12.2010




and her poem!




SCATTERED DREAMS

Seven coloured dreams
Scattered in my heart!
Violet flowers burnt
In my heart and
Red blood came
Out of  my eyes.
Light never falls
In  my heart, and
No rainbows are
Formed in my heart.
Dreams are like a rainbow
Which may disappear soon!
The eighth colour of
Rainbow is black.
Black is the sign of death.
Death is the beginning
Of new life.
Death caught the rainbow
Before it’s born,
So, the rainbow never
Blooms in my heart.
                -Rafeena

Top 10 Hardest Interview Questions !

| Labels: | Posted On

A job interview is no easy task. In fact many job seekers have trouble with the same set of questions. To ease the process of interviewing, we've listed the Top 10 Hardest Job Interview Questions. Focus on these job interview questions, study them, learn them, research them, and ace your next job interview!

1. Why did you get fired/ terminated? 
This question is tricky yet needs to be answered with full honesty. The interviewer would want to hear your honesty and your side of the story. Support your answer with a very good explanation. In case you get fired due to legal issues, explain that you were currently working on it and that it does not have anything to do with your performance. Your explanation in your answer is very important; it should be direct and should not contain intersections. 

2. Tell me about problems you encountered with Supervisors.
 Another tricky question that will test how you worked with your superiors. I suggest not to be too honest in answering this question. For example, common observations such as being bossy, opinionated, authoritarian, or being a keen observer are the common traits of a Supervisor that are incorrectly used. Instead, cite a personal experience that you had encounter with a supervisor so that the interviewer would understand why it became your problem. 

3. What Qualities do you look for in a boss?
 Do not answer with the most common traits that a boss should possess like "being nice to employees" or a good leader. You should relate your answer with your work. For example “My ideal boss is someone who can make time to hear employees' opinions or ideas, and a boss who cares to listen and give fair his/her opinion with my work.” 

4. As a professional, do you have any disappointments?
 Cite the experience that really disappoints you, as you relay the story behind it make sure that you state something that you have learned after.

5. What is your edge among other jobseekers who already have professional experience?
 This question is one of the most tricky questions for fresh graduates. You need to answer this question with full confidence and strut. Most answer “because of my age and fresh ideas." You should further explain your answer, and make surethat it has something to do with the company’s growth. 

6. What do you know about this company?
 Considered to be one of the hardest questions since most jobseekers failed to research the company (its management, products, etc.). 

7. How would you be an asset to this company?
 Another tough question. Confidence is the key to surpass this one. Give a clear two-liner explanation on how you can become an asset to the company 

8. Why do you think you will do well on this position that you are applying for?
 Cite an experience where you often got praise on the things that you did and relate that to how qualified you are in the position that you are applying for. 

9. What is your observation about this company?
This question may be a trap. The interviewer expects you to be a keen observer since you want to work in their company.Make sure that you observed the company’s environment, workers, and the office. Your impression matters to the interviewer. 

10. Are you open for criticisms?
How do you take them? - Your attitude will be tested in this question. The interviewer wants to know if you are open for suggestions and how strong you are in handling pressure.

Two Indian students develop Apple's top paid Application

| Labels: , | Posted On


Two Indian born Stanford graduate students have created a $3.99 application in the iPad. It is the top paid app in the entire iPad section of the App Store.The Pulse Reader app in the iPad was developed by Akshay Kothari (23) and Ankit Gupta (22) at the Institute of Design of Stanford University.Kothari said the project was inspired by 'a personal frustration at the whole news reading experience' on mobile devices. The stylish and easy to use news aggregator service was developed in the Launch Pad class, where the budding entrepreneurs are given an opportunity to develop and introduce a product in just ten weeks.Pulse is a clean and visual news aggregator and the reader takes up to 20 news sources that can be followed and a visual mosaic of the news can be created. The article can be tapped and a clean rendered view of the news story can be presented. The app allows users to see text-only versions of articles, which are basically cleaned-up versions of a news site's RSS feeds, or to see the full articles as they are presented on the Web. It also lets sharing articles through Twitter and Facebook by passing the individual sharing tools presented by each news site. News organizations are yet to get accustomed to iPad strategies but are quite hopeful about the success of pulse. "You absolutely do not have to give away something great for free," said Michael Dearing, a former eBay executive who is a teacher of the Launch Pad class. "If you build something great, people will pay you for it," added Dearing.

| Labels: , | Posted On

At the age of 25, Lance Armstrong was one of the world's best cyclists. Lance Armstrong seemed invincible and his future was bright. But Suddenly he was suffering with serious of illness.The Doctor told him that he got a serious problem and it was “CANCER”. If detected early, its cure rate is a promising 90 percent. But Like most young healthy men, Lance ignored the warning signs, and he never imagined the seriousness of his condition. Going untreated, the cancer had spread to Lance's abdomen, lungs and brain. His chances dimmed.Wherever he turned he heard the same words “Everything over for Him” But he did not cared about what others said & loose his confidence, he told everyone that
“A boo is a lot louder than a cheer. If you have 10 people cheering and one person booing, all you hear is the booing.” So after a combination of physical conditioning, a strong support system and competitive spirit took over. He declared himself Not a cancer victim but a cancer survivor. He took an active role in educating himself about his disease and the treatment. Armed with knowledge and confidence in medicine, he underwent aggressive treatment and beat the disease.
After his Survival 7 consecutive times he was the Champion of TOUR-De France.

"Pain is temporary
It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year,
eventually it will subside and something else will take its place.
But If I quit, Pain lasts forever."
***LANCE ARMSTRONG***
