FROM THE EDITOR

The summer 2013 has been punishing. Critics say we are destroying the planet and we arunable to marshal arguments to counter their convictions. Efforts for sustainable growth anprotection of environment proved to be mere empty rhetoric. Sleaze, lies and corruption areating the entrails of the Society and the Nation.My gratitude to Er Suhair and Er KNC cannot be expressed in words. Without their contributiothe June issue would not have materialized.The one day family picnic at Kannur was a good effort to salvage one of the noble objectives forming our Forum i.e. PROVIDING COMPANIONSHIP.

SMILE AND LAUGHTER

The information superhighway of the human brain is a tangled mass of millions of nerve cells connecteby a complex system of network, governed by an array of powerful chemicals called neuro-transmitter

During periods of acute stress one class of such hormone catecholamine boosts up our blood pressuand heart beat, making us ready to fight or run away. This system was intended for use only as aemergency measure, like confronting an attacking predator.

But todays modern man is under acute stress 24x7. The predator too has changed its profile. Parentare threatened over the scholastic levels of their children: children, in turn are stressed out by the daigrind of round the clock tuition. The master of the house is worried about his job and his wife, about th

outlaws on the street corner, and the in laws at home. Chronic stress results in persistent elevation ostress hormones, damaging the system. What was supposed to be a fire engine, to be used only in a

emergency, is now put into service as an every day commuter bus! High blood pressure, loss of sleefatigue, palpitation..the effects are endless.The brain has a neuro- transmitter called serotonin, the happy hormone. The higher its level, th

happier you are. Most anti-depressant drugs used for pathologically depressed patients act by boostinthe blood levels of serotonin by altering their metabolism.

Smile and laughter are expressions of happiness. Smile is soft, docile and quiet. Laughter is energeticaudible and extrovert. The quiet charm of smile is to be noticed; the vocal behavior of laughter wou

turn heads.

Laughter is infectious. Comedians exploit this by starting off laughing after their humor and in time, th

entire audience breaks down laughing.

Laughing has been shown to relieve stress because, during and immediately after a hearty laugh, th

human system can not feel sad or morose. A good laugh alters favorably the brain neuro-transmitterReduction of catecholamine, increase in serotonin and increase in endorphin follow. Endolphins are group of hormones that modulate response to pain, similar in structure to morphine, -the most powerf

analgesic known to man. Improvement of social bonding, reduction of blood pressure and increase immunity to infections are some of the broad-spectrum benefits credited to a hearty laugh.

Let us start celebrating with a smile and break into a laughter-every day of every month for one yeaand then every year the rest of our lives. A family that laughs together stays together. While smiopens the door, laughter would hug you. -Dr Tiny Nair (Hindu

World Environment Day aims to reduce food waste

Think. Eat. Save. Reduce your foodprint.

Think. Eat. Save. Reduce your foodprint. That's the theme of World Environment Day 2013, to bcelebrated on the 5th of June in Mongolia.

The new food-inspired global campaign focuses on the fact that over one billion tons of food are lost owasted each year, according to UNEP.The campaign, supported by the Food and Agricultu

Organization (FAO) and others, aims to reduce food loss along the entire chain of food production an

consumption and specifically targets food wasted by consumers, retailers and the hospitality industry."In a world of seven billion people, set to grow to nine billion by 2050, wasting food makes no sense

economically, environmentally and ethically," said UN Under-Secretary-General and UNEP Executiv

Director Achim Steiner.

Appreciate and improve relationships

One wife waited patiently, then impatiently, for her husband to repair the lawn mower as he ha

promised. One day, not wanting to confront him in anger, she tried another trick. That was the day h

came home and found her seated on the ground snipping grass with sewing scissors, one blade at time. He watched in absolute amazement. Then he went into the house and returned with a toothbrush

"Honey," he said, "when you finish cutting the grass would you mind sweeping the sidewalks?"They bo

laughed. And, more importantly, he turned his attention to the mower.

We've all been there. We want to encourage a child to do her homework, or a spouse to complete

project, or a colleague to follow through. How can we encourage without criticizing, nagging, berating o

pushing? Even if motivating is not your purpose, respect and appreciation, topped off with a little humo

is bound to improve any relationship

Where there is a will..As the alarm goes off at 4am, N Shiva Kumar is up on his feet, stacking his bicycle with newspapers. He has

deliver them before the sun appears on the horizon. A habit since Class 6, Shiva's life is set to change now. Com

June 16, this newspaper-boy-turned-vendor will walk down the corridors of the Indian Institute of Managemen

Calcutta as a PGP student.

It sounds like a fairy tale, but the TOI vendor who cracked CAT 2012 has indeed grabbed a seat in the premi

business school. Shiva, 23, an engineering student from Banaswadi, is the son of an illiterate mother and a fath

who was a truck driver. He started working as a newspaper delivery boy and for his debt-ridden family of four th

Rs 150 he would bring home was a huge relief."Every morning people would come home asking my father to return the money he had borrowed. My father had

truck. But there were more liabilities than what he could earn with it. When I was in Class 3 or 4, I sold flowers th

my mother strung into garlands by the roadside. It was only later that I found the job of newspaper boy," said th

8th semester computer science student of Bangalore Institute of Technology.

Shiva managed the part-time job along with school. "I was studying in an ICSE school. In Class 9, I was asked n

to come to school till I paid the fees. The next day, I approached the first customer I was delivering the paper t

Krishna Veda Vyasa, and requested him to fund me. He hesitated, and said he didn't even know me. I asked h

to do a background check, and he found I was the topper there. I requested him to pay one term's fee, but he pa

for the entire year. He continued funding me ever since. I owe it all to him," he said.

He soon found an opportunity to be a vendor and started his own agency when in Class 10. "I'd learnt the tricks othe trade by then. My vendor had some 50 extra copies to sell and I took them from him. That's how I started," h

said. The 50 copies have now grown to 500.

"After school, I would take my cycle and identify new buildings and residents. I would approach them f

business and ensured the papers reached before 6am. I had my own targets for a month," he explained h

marketing tactics. He still delivers the paper along with four of his delivery boys.

"It was hard work. I had to get up at 4am every day, deliver the papers and head to school. I had to skip breakfa

to be on time, but would still be late. In college, I opted to sit in the last bench during the first hour so I could catc

up on some sleep."

IIM could not have rejected a seat for an aspirant like him. "After my family stabilizes, I want to start a charitab

institution, Educate India, by which I can help the underprivileged gain some education. I could achieve th

because someone helped me. In turn, I want to help at least 10 people," he said. Shiva is taking an educatio

loan to fund his IIM course.

At IIM-C, he plans to "work extremely hard" while he specializes in finance. It's an attitude that has already mad

a mark on teachers and faculty members at his new school. "We are really impressed with the boy. He w

certainly serve as an example to others and we will look forward to teaching him," said Subir Bhattachary

chairman of IIM-C's post graduate programmes. (Times of India May 5, 2013) suha

Kindness Always PaysMany years ago, one stormy night, an elderly man and his wife entered the lobby of a small hotel in Philadelph

USA. Trying to get out of the rain, the couple approached the front desk hoping to get some shelter for the night.

Could you possibly give us a room here? the husband asked. The clerk, a friendly man with a winning smil

looked at the couple and explained that there were three conventions in town. All of our rooms are taken, th

clerk said. But I cant send a nice couple like you out into the rain at one oclock in the morning. Would yo

perhaps be willing to sleep in my room? Its not exactly a suite, but it will be good enough to make you folk

comfortable for the night.

When the couple declined, the young man pressed on. Dont worry about me, Ill make out just fine, the clerk to

them. So the couple agreed. As he paid his bill the next morning, the elderly man said to the clerk, You are th

kind of manager who should be the boss of the best hotel. Maybe someday Ill build one for you.

The clerk looked at them and smiled. The three of them had a good laugh. As they drove away, the elderly coup

agreed that the helpful clerk was indeed exceptional, as finding people who are both friendly and helpful isn

easy.

Two years passed. The clerk had almost forgotten the incident when he received a letter from the old man.

recalled that stormy night and enclosed a round-trip ticket to New York, asking the young man to pay them a visit

The old man met him in New York, and led him to the corner of Fifth Avenue and 34th Street. He then pointed to

great new building there, a pale reddish stone, with turrets and watchtowers thrusting up to the sky.

That, said the older man, is the hotel I have just built for you to manage.

You must be joking. the young man said.

I can assure you I am not. said the older man, a sly smile playing around his mouth.

The older mans name was William Waldorf-Aster, and that magnificent structure was the original Waldorf-Asto

Hotel. The young clerk who became its first manager was George C. Boldt. This young clerk never foresaw th

turn of events that would lead him to become the manager of one of the worlds most glamorous hotels.

WIDENING THE NET

Our homes are packed with electrical and electronic appliances and all of them do exactly wh

they are designed for. The AC cools the air temperature and lowers the humidity; the washing machin

starts when we press the start button; the fridge works quietly 24X7 to keep our food fresh. To do a

these things India has installed 211GW of electricity. India is the fifth largest producer of electricity. 40

million Indians have still no access to electricity. The supply is poor quality and erratic for those wh

have access. Demand is more in daytime; it ebbs at night. Producers overbuild capacity to meet pea

demand. The shortage in October 2012 was 9.1%. The demand is increasing steadily. Experts predi

that Indias demand for power will double by 2035. We incur more cost to make peak power available;

will not be long before our consumption overshoot what the planet can support / sustain.

Everything must get smarter. Smarter appliances, smarter homes and smarter cars, and yesmarter cities! Everything will be networked; there will be sharing of information with service provider

At home the washing machine, fridge and AC will communicate among themselves, as well as th

supplier and operate as per the priorities decided by the owner and comply with the restrictions impose

by the supplier. Optimising energy use and reducing the peak demand can be inbuilt in suitab

programmes. The washing cycle can wait till the AC and the fridge have ceased drawing power o

attaining preset temperature and humidity. Utility will benefit from optimization and lower maximu

demand; the consumer will achieve lower energy costs.

Utility can allot different time slots for various appliances and equipments to match with th

availability of Power. Bills will shrink and further rise in CO2 emissions arrested.

This is not science fiction; it is not yet a commercial reality. But the essential key technologies dexist.

PRACTICAL LESSONS

All the forty six travelers except four had crossed the midlife mark. The Senior Engineers Foruand the tenure in KSEB bonded them together. 15 th May: at 11 am the sun was scorching above. Thpeople operating passenger boat were all smiles probably imagining;These fellows are crazy. Thewere 31 members; eleven spouses who came along; the four adolescents completed the tally. Thedestination was a much-hyped tourist attraction - the Dharmadam Island near Thalassery. They call k\ fOqOV,an appellation justifying its looks. The 5 acre island covered with coconut palms and densthorny bushes is largely inaccessible.

During low tide travelers can walk to the island wading in knee-deep water; that option hapassed a few hours ago. A boat owner volunteered to ferry us across and back. Our spirits were lowhen we found that there was no wharf and getting in the boat, without any moorings, swayed bpowerful wind and was going to be tricky. We were literally lifted and hauled over the sill to inside thboat by friendly hands pushing and pulling. Words of encouragement and assurance by the boat owneand operators hardly dispelled our fears when the ominous tides and strong wind caused the boat wobble precariously. Yet the adventure was thrilling. There were plenty of occasions when mutual heand succor were demonstrated. The strong bonds of companionship were clearly in evidence.

Thalassery is famous for many reasons. It is often called the city of "three C's" in the state

Cricket, Cake and Circus. It is the place were the British first played cricket, the first cakes introduced b

the British were baked here in the Mambally's Royal Biscuit Factory and Indian Circus had its origins

this town as well. Dharmadom Island isone km away from the mainland at Dharmadom beach with clif

falling out to the Arabian Sea.

After lunch at Dharmadam we proceeded to visit Mahe and Muzhappilangad.

The picturesque little town with a French flavour, originally called Mayyazhi, was renamed Mah

after the Frenchman who captured it. The St. Teresa's Church is famed for the efficacy of prayers an

offerings. People of all religions converge here from all over Kerala during the festival (October 5 - 22).

Malayalakalagramam, arenowned Centre for Arts and Culture at New Mahe conduct courses

Painting, Sculpture, Music, Dance and Pottery. It is looked after by M.V.Devan, the celebrated doyen o

Fine Arts, who hails from Chokli the adjacent village.

Dr. Herman Gundert, the revered German missionary, scholar and lexicographer prepared th

first Malayalam dictionary. He lived here from 1839-1859. He also published the first Malayala

newspaper Paschimodayam. A majestic sculpture overlooks the Stadium.

The drive-in beach and shallow waters of Muzhappilangad is a paradise for swimmers. The 4

km long beach is sheltered by black boulders. Festivals are always crowd pullers here. Adventure spor

like sailing, gliding, by experts from Defence services and Aquatic sports are frequently arranged

When quizzed by Sasi for feedback, the travel-weary seniors unanimously acknowledged thimpeccable efforts of Ers Mohanan Nambiar, Divakaran and Gangadharan in making the one day picn

unforgettable.

JOKE

How to Ruin an Interview

When youre interviewing for a job, you want to make an impression. Hiring managers report that thes

people made onejust not the right kind:

Applicant hugged hiring manager at the end of the interview.

Applicant ate all the candy from the candy bowl while trying to answer questions.

Applicant blew her nose and lined up the used tissues on the table in front of her.

Applicant wore a hat that said "Take this job and shove it."

Applicant talked about how an affair cost him a previous job.

Applicant threw his beer can in the outside trash can before coming into the reception area.

Applicants friend came in and asked, "How much longer?"

Meeting Time

Meetingboy.com invites viewers to gripe about their jobs. Some of the best responses: "No, I wasn

playing devils advocate. I really think your idea is stupid."

"Getting an excellent performance review but then no raise is like being told you get dessert, the

learning the dessert is celery."

"Of course it wasnt convincing. That 60-slide PowerPoint presentation wasnt to convince people. It wa

to break their will."

"You had me at meeting canceled."

FOOD SECURITY

The Green revolution we witnessed in the 1960s helped India to achieve self-sufficiency an

avoid food shortage. Yet the issue of food security continues to pose uncomfortable questions eve

today. Weather pattern is transforming; production levels are low; population is growing, land unde

cultivation is decreasing. Requirement of food grains by 2030 could well be over 300 MT.

The main resources - land, water and manpower- are limited. What holds promise is adoptio

of Precision Farming. The objectives are: a) Reduce cost of cultivation, b) use inputs best suited

production and c) optimize outputs for stable and safe supply of food. It also has to maximiz

financial return, reduce waste and be environment-friendly.

This is possible with the help of new technology. Deployment of IT tools like micro-computers

GIS, GPS, decision support system and automatic control of farm machinery can very well be th

agricultural system of the 21st century. It involves a synergistic approach using traditional knowledg

and information along with management-intensive technologies. In this holistic farm manageme

farmers can adjust input use and cultivation methods pertaining to seed, fertilizer, pesticide, wate

management, choice of tillage, planting and harvesting matching with soil, crop and other lan

characteristics. There will be mapping and analysis of variables, spatial relationships omanagement actions.

Precision farming provides a framework of information with which the farmer can participate

both production and management decisions. Potential benefits include profitability, sustainabilit

crop quality, environmental protection, online quality of life, food safety and most importantly rur

economic development.

Ethernet turns 40 years oldFrom local area to worldwide deployment

By Lawrence Latif

FOUR DECADES AGO the Ethernet protoc

made its debut as a way to connect machines

close proximity, today it is the networking laye

two protocol of choice for local area network

(LANs), wide area networks (WANs) aneverything in between.

For many people Ethernet is merely the RJ4

jack on the back of a laptop, but its relativ

ubiquity and simplicity belie what Ethernet has done for the networking industry and i

turn for consumers and enterprises. Ethernet has in the space of 40 years gone from

technology that many in the industry viewed as something not fit for high bandwidth

dependable communications to the default data link protocol.

Ethernet for the first two decades was deployed widely in LANs, competing and winnin

against Token Ring networks and various other more exotic and costly technologiesTOP


10/12

What Ethernet had going for it was the relatively low cost of network interface card

(NICs) and switching equipment, as well as the fact that its adaptive data link protoc

that tolerated ad hoc LAN segment configuration and device connections an

disconnections made it far easier and less expensive to implement and maintain.

While IBM's Token Ring technology had both the brand name and the bandwidth t

match Ethernet, a standard that had been ratified by the Institute of Electrical an

Electronics Engineers (IEEE) as 802.3, its switch gear equipment, physical wire an

network engineering overhead were significantly more expensive, making Etherne

based LANs more attractive.Now Ethernet sockets and network interface circuitry can be found on most laptops an

desktop motherboards, but back in the 1990s hardware vendors would sell separat

network interface cards (NICs) that supported 10BASE-T, a standard that provide

10Mbit/s over twisted copper pairs. Eventually the IEEE ratified what would b

commonly known as 100BASE-T, resulting in 100Mbit/s bandwidth over copper an

today it is common to find 1000BASE-T, or gigabit Ethernet, supported by most NICs.

Ethernet's deployment over copper is arguably what made it as successful as it

today. Even when the IEEE ratified the 802.3 standard, by which time Ethernet was 1

years old, it still used coaxial cable as the physical cable, but copper twisted pair wire

- effectively the same cabling used in the telephone system - were found to work jusas well, offering simplicity and once again lower cost.

Now Ethernet is deployed not just over copper wires, usually labeled as unshielde

twisted pair (UTP), but fibre optic cables. Ethernet over fibre optic cables is usually firs

to see bandwidth increases and offers greater range, especially when deployed in singl

mode.

But Ethernet's biggest accomplishment is away from the LAN and in the telecom

industry that in the past used protocols such as synchronous data hierarchy (SDH) an

asynchronous transfer mode (ATM). Ethernet was initially viewed as an unreliab

technology but has now matured into one to which transit providers can attach servic

level agreements (SLAs).

People associated it with a being a LAN technology so they weren't confident it wa

robust in the WAN. But now it has gained a lot more acceptance and people are seein

you have same types of SLA in terms of guarantees of availability, uptime, time t

repair just like you have with traditional technologies so there is no difference. Peop

now have a level of confidence that [Ethernet] has been engineered as a WA

technology."

As enterprises already had knowledge of deploying and managing Ethernet within LA

environments, deploying Ethernet over WANs such as point-to-point links betwee

offices or over the internet was a logical step. While firms can still pick up SDH or ATlinks, it is unlikely that telecoms operators such as BT are seeing very much deman

from enterprises, especially given the choice of providers in the market for interne

protocol (IP) transit over Ethernet.

Ethernet might be a 40 year old technology, but thanks to the IEEE's relentless push t

increase bandwidth and transit providers' ability to attach reliability guarantees,

means there is a good chance that Ethernet will not only reach its half century wit

ease but continue to be widely deployed even 20 years or more from now. There ar

very few technologies in use today that can lay claim to being 40 years old and still o

the cutting edge, but Ethernet can.

The market rally that commenced in April 2013 continued with more vigor in May. Thsensex rose from 19736 on 1st May to a 30 month high of 20286 on 17 th. The rally is due tvarious positive factors affecting the markets. A three year low inflation rate of 4.89 achieved foApril is the major factor. The low inflation rate enhances the hope of the market players that thRBI will reduce interest rates during its policy announcement in June. Lower interest rates wcause the manufacturing units to get cheaper loans for their day to day activities. Another factowas the strong performance of almost all global indices such as Nikkei, Dow Jones, Nasdaq etcFIIs continued to be net buyers during May is also a major factor.

After reaching a 30 month high of 20286 the markets went for a correction phase from20th to 23rd May. From 24th again the indices began their upward journey. The markets show

strength and the sensex may move on to 20443, 20665 or 20935 in the weeks ahead. The shoterm trend will reverse only on a close below 19576.

The Nifty similarly followed the sensex in the month of May. It declined to an importanshort term support at 5941during the last week. The short term trend continues to be up. Thnext targets for Nifty are 6230, 6338 or even 6400 in the coming weeks. As long as the Niftremains above 5763 there is no threat for the short term trend. The medium trend in Niftcontinues to be up. A sideways movement between 5500 and 6300 for a few months can bconstrued as positive from a long term perspective.

term outlook negative.The global cues are also positive in that all major indices are on an uptrend. The low crude oprices also are seen advantageous to the markets.
