My mind raced back to my school days when I learnt a hindi poem by Pt. Makhanlal Chaturvedi called "PUSHP KI ABHILASHA".In those days we just mugged it up because it was part of our course, but somehow these lines have got etched in my mind.
 
This is, no doubt, best peice of poetry from Makhanlal. It accurately represent the pride and passion for the nation.I find these lines very close to my heart.Since the time i read this poem first time in 8th standard, i use to recite this poem once in a week till now.
This poem tells us dedication and patriotism towards our country. The stanza of the poems are really soul stirring. Salute to him who wrote these lines and salute to them who shed their blood for our great motherland
Pushp Ki Abhilasha

Chah Nahin Mai SurBala Ke
Gehnon Mein Guntha Jaaon
Chah Nahin Premi Mala Mein
Bindh, Pyari Ko Lalchaon
Chah Nahin Samraton Ke
Shav Par, He Hari Dala Jaaon
Chah Nahin Devon Ke Sar Par
Chadhon, Bhagya Par Itraoon
Mujhey Tod Lena Banmali,
Us Path Par Tum Dena Phaink
Matra Bhoomi Per Sheesh Chadhaney,
Jis Path Jaayen Veer Anek

Translation:
The Yearning (DESIRE) of a Flower

I don't want to be a part of the necklace of the beautiful girl,I don't want to woo the lady love,I don't want to be spread over dead bodies,I don't want to act snob, after someone offers me to the Gods.

Just pluck me Gardner and throw me on the road,which is taken by the brave soldiers to give away their lives for the Motherland !

 
I pray for the flower's wish to be granted.*Peace*
 
In the Blessed memory of those courageous Indians
Who died in the struggle for deadliest terror attack,
Thousands of men and women have given their lives
Some one they never knew nor will ever meet
So today we say a little prayer of thanks to those
Countless persons who paid the price of their life
Let those who came after see to it that these names not be forgotten.
 
In memory of our soldiers, who laid down their
Lives in defence of our nation
For they who at the call of the duty
Left all that was dear to them
Endured hardships, faced dangers and
Finally passed out of sight of men.
 

LETS BOW OUR HEAD AND SAY A LITTLE PRAYER OF THANKS TO THOSE COUNTLESS BRAVE SOLDIERS WHO PAID AND SACRIFICED THEIR LIFE FOR DEFENCE OF OUR NATION.

[www.keralites.net] A TRIBUTE TO ALL SOLDIERS OF 26/11 TERRORIST ATTACK

 

DEAR ALL, 

A TRIBUTE TO ALL SOLDIERS OF 26/11 TERRORIST ATTACK




Dedicating Hindi poem penned by Makhanlal chaturvedi "Pushp Ki Abhilasha" to all the soldiers. The soul stirring poem accurately represents the pride, passion, dedication and patriotism towards our country. This is one of the best poems I still remember from my schoolbook, not because of its contents but because of its feel.



 

Chah Nahin Mai SurBala Ke Gehnon Mein Guntha Jaaon
Chah Nahin Premi Mala Mein Bindh, Pyari Ko Lalchaon
Chah Nahin Samraton Ke Shav Par, He Hari Dala Jaaon
Chah Nahin Devon Ke Sar Par Chadhon, Bhagya Par Itraoon
Mujhey Tod Lena Banmali, Us Path Par Tum Dena Phaink
Matru Bhoomi Per Sheesh Chadhaney,Jis Path Jaayen Veer Anek




When Translated in English:

I do not wish to be a part of the ornaments of the daughter of Gods.

I do not wish to lure sweet love being a part of lover's garland for her.

I do not wish O God, to be offered on the dead-bodies of great kings

I do not wish to adorn the foreheads of Gods and be proud of my luck.

O Gardener! Please pluck me and throw me on the street
where the brave men offering their head for the motherland tread!



 

An all time childhood favourite poem, and I am sharing as a tribute to all the soldiers who lost their lives in one of the most atocious terrorist attack in our nation, that on of 26/11 in Mumbai.An attack so brazen that left the country reeling in shock for days afterward.


 

They do everything for country, yet time and again we forget they too are normal people just like you and me.People who have shed their luxuries for their country and lead a tough life that is beyond our Imaginations.They are our soldiers. The protection and warmth we feel, the securityof living in our country is noticed but not the sacrifices that it cost.Unlike the politicians bureaucrats or any other common people, the solidiers cannot get away with the excuse, we try our best.They just win or they lose.




If you worship cricket idol or bollywood star think for a moment there are thousands of people who sacrificied their lifes for our country who deserve much more than them.We must salute them for their sacrifice and let their deaths not to go waste unacknowledged and unnoticed.

[www.keralites.net] MONEY Q&A: A Billionaire Shares His Financial Tips

 

Warren Buffet is often ranked among the top 5 richest men in the world. His fortune is estimated at around $50 billion, 99% of which he intends to give to charity after his death. This self-made billionaire often gives advice to the top leaders of the world. Let's take a look at some of his wise words:

 

Warren Buffet, money, advice, Q&A

Warren Buffet, money, advice, Q&A

On honesty
Honesty is a very expensive thing, don't expect it from cheap people.

On inheritance
A rich man must leave his children enough to do anything, but not enough to do nothing.

On ideas
You do things when the opportunities come along. I've had periods in my life when I've had a bundle of ideas come along, and I've had long dry spells. If I get an idea next week, I'll do something. If not, I won't do a damn thing.

On the trickle theory
The rich are always going to say that, you know, just give us more money and we'll go out and spend more and then it will all trickle down to the rest of you. But that has not worked the last 10 years, and I hope the American public is catching on. 

On investing in the future
Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago. 

On habits
Chains of habit are too light to be felt until they are too heavy to be broken. 
 

On becoming rich
I always knew I was going to be rich. I don't think I ever doubted it for a minute. 

Warren Buffet, money, advice, Q&A

On learning from betters
It's better to hang out with people better than you. Pick out associates whose behavior is better than yours and you'll drift in that direction.  

On price and value
Price is what you pay. Value is what you get. 

On taxes for the rich
If anything, taxes for the lower and middle class and maybe even the upper middle class should even probably be cut further. But I think that people at the high end - people like myself - should be paying a lot more in taxes. We have it better than we've ever had it. 

On challenges
I don't look to jump over 7-foot bars: I look around for 1-foot bars that I can step over. 

On being rich
Of the billionaires I have known, money just brings out the basic traits in them. If they were jerks before they had money, they are simply jerks with a billion dollars. 

On risk
Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing.

Warren Buffet, money, advice, Q&A

On Wall Street

Wall Street is the only place that people ride to work in a Rolls-Royce to get advice from those who take the subway. 

On how he invests
I never attempt to make money on the stock market. I buy on the assumption that they could close the market the next day and not reopen it for five years. 

On hindsight
In the business world, the rear-view mirror is always clearer than the windshield. 

On Ponzi schemes
Only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked. 

On learning from history
If past history was all there was to the game, the richest people would be librarians. 

On healing the economy
Economic medicine that was previously meted out by the cupful has recently been dispensed by the barrel. These once unthinkable dosages will almost certainly bring on unwelcome after-effects. Their precise nature is anyone's guess, though one likely consequence is an onslaught of inflation.

[www.keralites.net] The Internet of Things Isn't Science Fiction - It's Here

 

Imagine being stuck in traffic after a long day at work and just wanting to get home, have a hot shower, and lie on the sofa in front of the TV. Now imagine being able to set everything up so it's ready to go as soon as you arrive. How would you do so? By means of your smartphone, of course!

With a few taps on your device's screen, you'll be able to instruct your home to prepare the hot water for your bath, set the air conditioning to just the right temperature, put the TV on your favorite channel. At the last minute, you also decide that you want a coffee when you arrive. No problem –you'll find the kettle boiled and ready to go when you get in.

How would all this be possible?

 

That's where the so-called 'Internet of Things' comes in. It works on the basic premise that everything linked in to it is "smart" or, in other words, has an internet connection and thus allows for the possibility for them to be manipulated remotely.

Although it may sound like something out of a science fiction novel, the Internet of Things is already here. Think of homes with smart lighting and security systems, or refrigerators that can tell you specifically what you need to stock up on when you're at the grocery store.

Some smart homes also have the ability to prepare themselves for the arrival of any guests you may be having over in your absence. For instance, you'll be able to unlock your front door remotely or adjust lighting and heating settings in anticipation of their arrival. Similarly, if you forget to lock your front door on your way out, or forget to turn off the lights, you'll be able to do this at the touch of a button.

So how much of a reality is this already?

 

The Internet of Things has become a possibility due to the advancement of computer chips, which are nowadays no thicker than a few strands of hair. As a result, they can be embedded into appliances or devices without disrupting their core functions, thus allowing them to receive instructions and execute them accordingly.

Experts predict that Internet of Things market will be worth some $14 trillion globally by the year 2020, and there will be no less than 50 billion smart devices making it up. These smart devices will range anywhere from medical chips implanted into people to monitor vital signs, to smart appliances in the home, to more complex commercial and industrial applications.

This new industry will purportedly create millions of new jobs that will be required for the development, installation and maintenance of the new systems. Experts also predict that most modern homes will be equipped with such systems within the next decade.

Where else is the Internet of Things applicable?

 

The applications that smart technology, or the Internet of Things, has are almost limitless. For example, farmers will be able to irrigate their plantations and check toxicity and nutrient levels in the soil remotely, which will save them a lot of trial and error. It will also allow them to look for signs of animals doing their plantations harm, or plant diseases that may have a detrimental impact on their crops.

Commerce and industry also has the possibility to better keep track of inventory, machine health, and even be alerted to any of the wares that they've sold to consumers malfunctioning and being in need of repair.

Probably the most significant field that the new technology is having an impact on is the medical field. For instance, it's now a possibility for a tiny chip to be implanted into your body during an operation. This will allow medical practitioners to be alerted to anything that may be going wrong with your health as soon as it begins to occur. Theoretically, such a device can even be programmed to call an ambulance for you in the event that you can't get to a phone quickly enough.


What are the risks of this new technology?

 

The scary reality of the modern world is that anything with a chip in it, or that has been programmed, can be hacked into by individuals that have malevolent intent. So, for instance, if you're the owner of a smart home that gets hacked, you could end up being the victim of a burglar that walks right through your front door.

Similarly, if you own a smart car or have a medical chip implanted into your body, there's a possibility that they can be interfered with. Imagine if your car gets shut down in the middle of a busy interstate, or someone wants to find out where you are for nefarious purposes such as kidnapping or robbery.

With regard to an implanted chip, there's a possibility that the way in which it takes readings and gives out alerts becomes tampered with, and thus you won't get the medical care you need, when you need it, as a result. While alarming, these are most definitely things that need to be considered.

Industry, commerce and infrastructure at large must also never allow themselves get to the point where they get too reliant on these systems for their operations. This is because although machines, automation, and computers can make everything faster, more efficient and less taxing, the stark reality is that these things can and will go wrong, not to mention that people who have bad intentions can interfere with them. 

Conclusion
The world is at a point where the metaphorical door is ajar for the Internet of Things. It's now up to us to consider whether we open it fully and allow the technology to follow the path to ubiquity in our lives. The biggest consideration we all need to make is how far we need to go to ensure that smart systems are as minimally exposed to the possibility of tampering or viruses as possible.
