always tell ur wife the truth ...

2009-12-23T09:15:00.000-08:00

A lady tells her husband to go to the store to buy some cigarettes.

He walks down to the store only to find it closed. So he goes into a nearby bar to use the vending machine.

At the bar he sees a beautiful woman and starts talking to her.

They have a couple of beers and one thing leads to another and they end up in her apartment.

After they've had their fun, he realizes its 3AM and says, "Oh no, its so late, my wife's going to kill me. Have you got any talcum powder?"

She gives him some talcum powder, which he proceeds to rub on his hands and then he goes home.

His wife is waiting for him in the doorway and she is pretty angry. "Where the hell have you been?"

"Well, honey, it's like this. I went to the store like you asked, but they were closed. So I went to the bar to use the vending machine. I saw this great looking girl there and we had a few drinks and one thing led to another and I ended up in bed with her."

"Oh yeah? Let me see your hands!" She sees his hands are covered with powder and... "You God damn liar!!! You were playing pool again!!!"

*********

Moral of the story : Always tell your wife the truth. She won't believe you anyway.

CAMPUS STARTUP :The magic touch

2009-12-20T03:34:00.000-08:00

Increasing numbers of start up are emerging from third-level incubation centres.

The halls of academia may once have been associated with dusty books and tweed-suited lecturers, but the third-level sector is building a new image for itself as a springboard for start-up companies.

In recent years, the majority of institutions have established campus ‘incubation’ centres.

These facilities are designed to foster entrepreneurship and provide a commercialisation route for research carried out at the educational institutions.

Start-up companies are typically provided with office space at a reduced rent, access to a wide range of support services and business mentoring.

Because they are located on campus, the companies can also have access to the next generation of skilled workers.

business idea or business plan

2009-12-15T13:49:00.000-08:00

Which one is more valuable - the business idea or the business plan?

Many of us can relate somehow - it's like the question we ask about "what came first, the egg or the chicken?" And which one is more important in the process?
In today's modern world of business & entrepreneurship, a creative mind and innovation is crucial to developing a business idea and pursuing a plan of action to make it happen. I thought to myself.... would my business idea work even if I have a weak business plan? OR, would a good business plan make a business idea <> work?
Then what comes to my rescue is the centuries old saying learning by doing. I decided to study few recent start up and tried judging them on my gut feeling and knowledge in the process i found a very interesting example of http://www.meracareerguide.com/
they started with what seems to be a common problem in India" educational conselling" and advice.
And in due process the content they developed is something to look out for as in
1.career assesment test
2.course planner
3.musings
4.career options
5.job hunt
and many more
it's definitely avery promising startup and something to learn from . It can rightly be called "ONE STOP DESTINATION FOR ALL YOUR CAREER NEED"
hats off to meracareer for creating such a promosing and effective tool to ease out the career decision maikng of students and guardian

A priest offered a Nun a lift.

She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg.

The priest nearly had an accident.

After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.

The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'

The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again.
The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'

The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.'

Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way.

On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.'

Moral of the story:
If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.

Made me ask if we know competition is what pushes us on, why do we love to get out of it. I mean most of us have been through two gruelling years (doesn't matter how much you actually studied, those were years of uncertainty and competition) to get into the colleges we are in now. And then we started discovering life for all it could be.

What developed slowly was a hard feeling towards tests and then towards people who fared well, the former seemed to stop us from having fun and the latter just proved to us that we weren't as good we thought at the only things we knew, hence the introduction of sarcasm. With time we found others who shared this opinion and we all gave each other the confidence that success in exams isn't everything.

I agree, it is not. But the reason we dropped out of the race was because we decided not to compete and get mauled. I know it is near-impossible to quantify every single activity that you do in terms of worthiness and generate a cumulative score for comparison between a me and my branch topper. No university I know does that. But even if we could do that, are we sure we have done a lot to risk putting ourselves in for comparison.

The question is why do we hide from the fact that we dropped out of the race using these mysterious other activities as an excuse with the real reason being the unwillingness to fight. I'd love to quote examples from people I know to validate my points, those who left everythign to follow their passion, those who didn't find a passion just to continue studying, as well as those who have aced both. You could bring them to prove yours. That doesn't solve the problem, which is the attitude shift from fighting it out on the pitch to settling in the audience.

How did we become losers, worse quitters? Of course, decrying the system is and shall always be cool. Should we recreate competition and performance benchmarks?

son for the millions in India who have just risen into the middle class. Successes of capitalism produce over time enervating influences when a generation committed to saving is replaced by one devoted to spending. Ferocious competition is a feature of the free market and it can be corrosive. But competition is also an economic stimulant that promotes human welfare. The choice is not between the free market and central planning but in getting the right mix of regulation. No one wants state ownership of production where the absence of competition corrodes the character even more. The answer is not to seek moral perfection which inevitably leads to theocracy and dictatorship. Since it is in man's nature to want more, let's learn to live with human imperfection, and seek regulation that not only tames crooks in the market but also rewards dharma-like behaviour.

A person who lost her job because of troubles on Wall Street, insistently asks, "Why me? What did I do to deserve this?" Draupadi asked the same question in the Mahabharata. "When everything was going well for us, why was our kingdom stolen in a rigged game of dice?" She wants her husband to raise an army, and win it back. But Yudhishthira says that he has given his word. "But what is the point of being good?" she asks. To which he replies, "I act because I must". It is the uncompromising, compelling voice of dharma. This is an answer that the investment bankers might ponder.

Entrepreneurship in the world's 2 most populous nations, China and India, has through modern times been somewhat asleep. But now, says HBS professor Tarun Khanna in a new book, both societies "have woken up," and the results could reshape business, politics, and society worldwide.

"In some sense people in these societies are running faster than their rules and laws can keep up. So they are creating the rules as they go along. And entrepreneurship is, after all, doing things in new ways, ahead of social norms and customs, and establishing the rules and laws. In both countries, these processes are unfolding not just in the mainstream business sector but in society writ large and even in politics and civil society.

I AM BEING ROWED THROUGH PARADISE ON A RIVER OF HELL: Exquisite ghost, it is night. The paddle is a heart, it breaks the porcelain waves: It is still night.The paddle is a lotus: I am rowed-as it withers-toward the breeze which is soft as if it had pity on me...... The hope is dat someday the war they were fighting & the reasons for its existence wud disappear like footsteps on winter snow in my childhood.

hey its rumi( urdu poet)Confused and Distraught

Again I am raging,
I am in such a state by your soul that every
bond you bind, I break, by your soul.
I am like heaven, like the moon, like a candle by your glow;
I am all reason, all love, all soul, by your soul.

My joy is of your doing, my hangover of your thorn;
whatever side you turn your face,
I turn mine, by your soul.
I spoke in error;
it is not surprising to speak in error in this state,
for this moment I cannot tell cup from wine, by your soul.
I am that madman in bonds who binds the
"divs"; I, the madman,am a Solomon with the "divs",
by your soul.

Whatever form other than love raises up its head from my
heart, forthwith I drive it out of the court of my heart,
by your soul.
Come, you who have departed, for the thing that departs
comes back; neither you are that,
by my soul, nor I am that, by your soul.

Disbeliever, do not conceal disbelief in your soul, for I will recite
the secret of your destiny, by your soul.
Out of love of Sham-e Tabrizi,
through wakefulness or nightrising,
like a spinning mote I am distraught, by your soul.
