I was passing the elephants, I suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg.No chains, no cages. It was obvious that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their bonds but for some reason, they did not. I saw a trainer near by and asked why these beautiful, magnificent animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away."Well," he said, "when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it's enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free."I was amazed. These animals could at any time break free from their bonds but because they believed they couldn't, they were stuck right where they were.Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging on to a belief that we cannot do something, s...

Healthy Steps to a Longer Life  One of the biggest factors that determines how well you age is not your genes but how well you live. Not convinced? A study published in 2009 in the British Medical Journal of 20,000 British folks shows that you can cut your risk of having a stroke in half by doing the following things: being active for 30 minutes a day, eating five daily servings of fruit and vegetables, and avoiding cigarettes and excess alcohol. While those are some of the obvious steps you can take to age well, researchers have discovered that centenarians tend to share certain traits in how they eat, move about, and deal with stress—the sorts of things we can emulate to improve our own aging process. Of course, getting to age 100 is enormously more likely if your parents did. Still, Thomas Perls, who studies the century-plus set at Boston University School of Medicine, believes that assuming you've sidestepped genes for truly fatal diseases like Huntington's, "...

Wednesday nights picture from Wankhede Stadium may not suggest the sharafat of Shah Rukh Khan,but he said he was protecting his daughter and her friends.And that sounds like a right thing to do  On Thursday I woke up to see two photographs online two very different faces of Indian cinema,31 years apart.The first,a black and white photograph was making the rounds on Facebook.It represented the innocence and simplicity of an era long gone.The second,a photograph from Wednesday night,showed a very angry face of Bollywood. The black and white picture is from the shoot of the 1982 comedy Chashme Baddoor and features Saeed Jaffrey and Farooq Shaikh as they lovingly stare at their director Sai Paranjape.The setting is a road side shop and Paranjape is showing Shaikh how to light a cigarette using a coir rope. Paranjape inhales the smoke,her eyes closed.Her face,her hands,her entire being in a trancelike state.Jaffrey,with his chin resting on his left wrist,leans against a metal ic...

Below is the interesting Article is written by GAUTAM PATEL published in Bangalore Mirror on 18th May 2012 GAUTAM PATEL  who according to "Bangalore Mirror" WHEN HE's NOT ON FACEBOOK,HE CLAIMS TO BE A LAWYER The uproar in Parliament over a 60-year-old cartoon lacks objectivity and a sense of proportion  The conceit of Indias Republic is founded on one major premise: equality.It is this premise that underlies the thinking of our Constituent Assembly,and it is this premise that,perhaps in the interest of retaining its collective sanity,led the Constituent Assembly to believe that the elected representatives of the people who were to form Parliament would be not materially different from themselves : men and women of understanding,some learning,stature,maturity,committed,with a sense of purpose and public service,and also with the ability to laugh at themselves. A look at the Constituent Assembly Debates (CAD) of over 60 years ago and the Parli...

Click here If it seems like you’re plugging in your smartphone to recharge everyday (or worse yet, more than once per day), it might be time to adjust a few of your settings to make that battery last just a little bit longer. Here are the top five settings to change : 1. Dim your screen:  You don’t need it to be at full brightness all the time. 2. Close apps when you’re not using them:  Many continue to run and continue draining your battery. 3. Turn off GPS, Bluetooth & WiFi:  When you’re not using them, turn them off. The constant scanning for networks and your location wastes power quickly. 4. Change your vibration settings:  Many touch screen phones respond every time you touch the screen, if you don’t need that to tell what you’re doing, turn it off. 5. Shorten your screen’s time-out time: The faster your phone goes to sleep the more battery power you’ll save.

  Sourav Ganguly, the under-performing Pune Warriors captain, sat out of the game; Steven Smith took over the leadership; and the hosts made as many as five changes to their XI in an attempt to avert a seventh consecutive defeat. None of it dowsed the powder keg that is the Royal Challengers Bangalore batting line-up, though. Chris Gayle launched half a dozen deliveries into the crowd; Tillakaratne Dilshan anchored the innings and then accelerated it; and even Saurabh Tiwary converted an iffy start into a useful performance. A total of 173 was much too large for Pune Warriors' misfiring batsmen The chase was severely damaged in the first over, when Zaheer Khan struck twice, and almost certainly done for in the fourth, when Michael Clarke was dismissed. Warriors were 22 for three. The Royal Challengers bowling has struggled this season - they are the most expensive unit - and tonight's performance, albeit against a weak opponent, would have lifted them. Nine is the most w...
