A different angle this time - for United Andhra :)

ప్రియమైన నా సమైఖ్యాంధ్ర సోదర సోదరిమణులారా ! మీకో చిన్న విన్నపం,
తెలంగాణా కోరుకునే నాయకులంతా ఆంధ్ర రాష్ట్రాన్ని ఎందుకు విడదీయాలి
అనుకుంటునారు? వారు చెప్పేకారణాలు ఇవే కదా?
1. తెలంగాణా ప్రాంతం లో అభివృద్ధి లేదు. కోస్తా,రాయలసీమ ప్రాంతాలు బాగా
అభివృద్ధి అయ్యాయి.
2. తెలంగాణా ప్రాంతం లో ఉద్యోగాలు అన్ని తెలంగాణా వాళ్ళకే చెందాలి. కోస్తా రాయసీమ
వాళ్ళకు చెందకూడదు.
3. తెలంగాణా రాష్ట్రముతోనే మా ప్రజల ఆర్థిక అసమానతనాలు తొలిగిపోతాయి.
4.తెలంగాణాని మేమే పరిపాలించుకోవాలి.
ఈ సమస్యలన్నీరాష్ట్ర విభజన తోనే తీరిపోతాయి అనుకొంటే పొరపాటే ,ఎందుకంటే
1. తెలంగాణా ప్రాంతం లో అభివృద్ధి లేదు. కోస్తా,రాయలసీమ ప్రాంతాలు
బాగా అభివృద్ధి అయ్యాయి.
కోస్తా,రాయలసీమ ప్రాంతాలు బాగా అభివృద్ధి అయ్యుంటే ,ఈ రోజు Goa, Pune, Mumbai వేస్యవాటికల్లో చిత్తూరు జిల్లా ఆడపడుచులు ఎక్కువ మంది ఎందుకు
ఉంటారు ధనిక జిల్లాలైన శ్రీకాకుళం,విజయనగరం జిల్లాల్లోని కొన్ని ప్రాంతాల్లో
తిండి దొరకక ,అడవుల్లో బ్రతుకుతూ ,దుంపలు తింటున్నారు?
"ఇది వెనుక బాటుతనం కదా? పేదరికం కదా ?
ఎక్కడ లేదు పేదరికం?ఎక్కడ లేదు దారిద్యం?"
2. తెలంగాణా ప్రాంతంలో ఉద్ద్యోగాలు అన్ని తెలంగాణా వాళ్ళకే చెందాలి. కోస్తా ,రాయలసీమ
వాళ్ళకి చెంధకుడదు.
ఎవరి ప్రాంతం లో వాళ్ళకే ఉద్యోగాలు చేయాలి,బయట వాళ్ళు చేయకూడదు అని ఈ
Globalization time లో కూడా అనుకుంటే, Bangalore, Chennai, Pune, Mumai, Delhi లో
ఉండే తెలంగాణాsoftware Engineers కూడా resign చేసి తెలంగాణా కి వచ్చేయాలి .విదేశాల్లో
ఉండే మన భారతీయులంతా resign చేసి, భారతదేశాని కి వచ్చేయాలి. ఇది సాధ్యమా ?
"అలా అనుకోవటం మూర్ఖత్వం కదా ?"
3.తెలంగాణ రాష్ట్రము తోనే మా ప్రజల ఆర్ధిక అసమానతలు తొలిగిపోతాయి . America లాంటి
ప్రపంచ ధనిక దేశాల్లో కూడా రాత్రి 8 గంటలు దాటాక బలవతంగా డబ్బులు వసూలు చేస్తూ
గాయ పరుస్తూ ఉన్నారే ,మరి ఇది ఆర్ధిక అసమానత వల్లే కాదా
పదేళ్ళుగా MLA,MP గా ఉన్నKCR కనీసం కరీంనగర్ లోని ఆర్ధిక అసమానతలు తొలగించాడ
కనీసం ఆ దిసగా ప్రయత్నం చేస్తునాడా ? పదేళ్ళుగా తన సొంత నియోజకవర్గాన్ని
కూడా అభివృద్ధి చేయలేని వారు రేపు తెలంగాణాని ఎలా అభివృద్ధి చేస్తాడు అని ఎలా అనుకుంటున్నారు ?
4. తెలంగాణాని మేమే పరిపాలించాలి. నాయకుడు ఎప్పుడు ప్రాంతాన్ని బట్టి తయారవుతాడు.
స్వాతంత్ర్యం తరువాత గత 60 ఏళ్ళలో ధక్షణ భారతీయులు 6 ఏళ్ళు మాత్రమే ప్రధానమంత్రి
గా పనిచేసారు.ఇలా ఆలోచిస్తే ,మనలని మనమే పరిపలించుకోవాలి అనుకుని , ధక్షణ భారతదేశాన్ని
భారతదేశం నుంచి విడిపోయి ,ఒకదేశం గా మార్చాలి అనుకోవటం సమంజసమా ? "ఇది
ఎంత నీచపు ఆలోచనో అర్ధం చేసుకోండి?" ప్రతిదేశం లోనూ, ప్రతి ప్రాంతం లోనూ ఇలాంటి
సమస్యలు ఎప్పుడు ఉంటాయి.KCR, Raj Thakare లాంటి నాయకులూ వీటిని భూతద్దం లో
చూపి,అమాయక ప్రజలని రెచ్చ గొడుతూ పబ్బం గడుపుతున్నారు. ఇలాంటివాళ్ళ వల్ల లాభం
అస్సలు లేకపోగా ,నష్టమే ఎక్కువ.ఎలా అంటే మొన్న జరిగిన ఉద్ద్యమం లో,అమాయకపు
విద్యార్థులు చనిపోయారే తప్ప ,నాయకులు కానీ , కనీసం నాయకుల
బంధువులు కాని గాయపడరా ? కొట్టుకుని చనిపోయేది మనం ,రెచ్చ కొట్టేది వాళ్ళు .చనిపోయిన వల్ల తల్లుల గుండె కోత ఎవరు చూస్తారు? "కలిసి ఉంటే కలదు సుఖం" అనేది ఇప్పుడు,ఎప్పుడు ,ఇంకెప్పుడూ నిజమే.

Why love your job and not your company

Some, rather most organizations reject his CV today because he has changed jobs frequently (10 in 14 years). My friend, the ˜job hopper™ (referred here as Mr. JH), does not mind it. well he does not need to mind it at all. Having worked full-time with 10 employer companies in just 14 years gives Mr. JH the relaxing edge that most of the ˜company loyal™ employees are struggling for today. Today, Mr. JH too is laid off like some other 14-15 year experienced guys “ the difference being the latter have just worked in 2-3 organizations in the same number of years. Here are the excerpts of an interview with Mr. JH:

Q: Why have you changed 10 jobs in 14 years?

A: To get financially sound and stable before getting laid off the second time.

Q: So you knew you would be laid off in the year 2009?

A: Well I was laid off first in the year 2002 due to the first global economic slowdown. I had not got a full-time job before January 2003 when the economy started looking up; so I had struggled for almost a year without job and with compromises.

Q: Which number of job was that?
A: That was my third job.

Q: So from Jan 2003 to Jan 2009, in 6 years, you have changed 8 jobs to make the count as 10 jobs in 14 years?

A: I had no other option. In my first 8 years of professional life, I had worked only for 2 organizations thinking that jobs are deserved after lot of hard work and one should stay with an employer company to justify the saying ˜employer loyalty™. But I was an idiot.

Q: Why do you say so?

A: My salary in the first 8 years went up only marginally. I could not save enough and also, I had thought that I had a ˜permanent™ job, so I need not worry about ˜what will I do if I lose my job™. I could never imagine losing a job because of economic slowdown and not because of my performance. That was January 2002.

Q: Can you brief on what happened between January 2003 and 2009.

A: Well, I had learnt my lessons of being ˜company loyal™ and not ˜money earning and saving loyal™. But then you can save enough only when you earn enough. So I shifted my loyalty towards money making and saving “ I changed 8 jobs in 6 years assuring all my interviewers about my stability.

Q: So you lied to your interviewers; you had already planned to change the job for which you were being interviewed on a particular day?

A: Yes, you can change jobs only when the market is up and companies are hiring. You tell me “ can I get a job now because of the slowdown? No. So one should change jobs for higher salaries only when the market is up because that is the only time when companies hire and can afford the expected salaries.

Q: What have you gained by doing such things?

A: That's the question I was waiting for. In Jan 2003, I had a fixed salary (without variables) of say Rs. X p.a. In January 2009, my salary was 8X. So assuming my salary was Rs.3 lakh p.a. in Jan 2003, my last drawn salary in Jan 2009 was Rs.24 lakh p.a. (without variable). I never bothered about variable as I had no intention to stay for 1 year and go through the appraisal process to wait for the company to give me a hike.

Q: So you decided on your own hike?

A: Yes, in 2003, I could see the slowdown coming again in future like it had happened in 2001-02. Though I was not sure by when the next slowdown would come, I was pretty sure I wanted a ˜debt-free™ life before being laid off again. So I planned my hike targets on a yearly basis without waiting for the year to complete.

Q: So are you debt-free now?

A: Yes, I earned so much by virtue of job changes for money and spent so little that today I have a loan free 2 BR flat (1200 sq.. feet) plus a loan free big car without bothering about any EMIs. I am laid off too but I do not complain at all. If I have laid off companies for money, it is OK if a company lays me off because of lack of money.

Q: Who is complaining?

A: All those guys who are not getting a job to pay their EMIs off are complaining. They had made fun of me saying I am a job hopper and do not have any company loyalty. Now I ask them what they gained by their company loyalty; they too are laid off like me and pass comments to me “ why will you bother about us, you are already debt-free. They were still in the bracket of 12-14 lakh p.a. when they were laid off.

Q: What is your advice to professionals?

A: Like Narayan Murthy had said “ love your job and not your company because you never know when your company will stop loving you. In the same lines, love yourself and your family needs more than the company's needs. Companies can keep coming and going; family will always remain the same. Make money for yourself first and simultaneously make money for the company, not the other way around.

Q: What is your biggest pain point with companies?

A: When a company does well, its CEO will address the entire company saying, ˜well done guys, it is YOUR company, keep up the hard work, I am with you. But when the slowdown happens and the company does not do so well, the same CEO will say, It is MY company and to save the company, I have to take tough decisions including asking people to go. So think about your financial stability first; when you get laid off, your kids will complain to you and not your boss.

Flu Attack! How A Virus Invades Your Body

It starts very simply. A virus, just one, latches on to one of your cells and fools that cell into making lots more. Lots, lots more, like a million new viruses. This animation shows you how viruses trick healthy cells to join the dark side.

David Bolinsky and his team at XVIVO designed this animation for a research company called Zirus (and we thank Zirus for letting us play with their pictures). Bolinsky says what you see in the video actually happens much, much faster in real life — in a fraction of a fraction of a second. So this is a very slow motion version of cellular activity.

And for those of you who were wondering, yes, the designers did add color. Proteins, DNA, organelles, and the teeny things inside a human cell are so small, and the insides of cells are so dark, that for all practical purposes, they are colorless.

So the copying molecule isn't really pink. But once you decide to colorize, pink is just as accurate as maroon or yellow.

One Last Thing

In our video we ask, if a flu virus inside your body can multiply by the millions within seconds, why don't we topple over and die quickly?

Here's a better, longer answer than the one in the video. First, some new viruses get caught in mucus and other fluids inside your body and are destroyed. Other viruses get expelled in coughs and sneezes. Second, lots of those new viruses are lemons. They don't work that well. Some don't have the right "keys" to invade healthy cells so they can't spread the infection. And third, as the animation shows, your immune system is busy attacking the viruses whenever and wherever possible.

That is why most of the time, after a struggle (when you get a fever and need to lie down), your immune system rebounds, and, in time, so do you.

What killed Ranjan Das - Something about *SLEEP* we better know

What killed Ranjan Das and Lessons for Corporate India
Reprint Article By : Akinchan Priya Das

A month ago, many of us heard about the sad demise of Ranjan Das from Bandra, Mumbai. Ranjan, just 42 years of age, was the CEO of SAP-Indian Subcontinent, the youngest CEO of an MNC in India. He was very active in sports, was a fitness freak and a marathon runner. It was common to see him run on Bandra's Carter Road. Just after Diwali, on 21st Oct, he returned home from his gym after a workout, collapsed with a massive heart attack and died. He is survived by his wife and two very young kids.

It was certainly a wake-up call for corporate India. However, it was even more disastrous for runners amongst us. Since Ranjan was an avid marathoner (in Feb 09, he ran Chennai Marathon at the same time some of us were running Pondicherry Marathon 180 km away), the question came as to why an exceptionally active, athletic person succumb to heart attack at 42 years of age.

Was it the stress
A couple of you called me asking about the reasons. While Ranjan had mentioned that he faced a lot of stress, that is a common element in most of our lives. We used to think that by being fit, one can conquer the bad effects of stress. So I doubted if the cause was stress.

The Real Reason
However, everyone missed out a small line in the reports that Ranjan used to make do with 4-5 hours of sleep. This is an earlier interview of Ranjan on NDTV in the program 'Boss' Day Out':
http://connect.in.com/ranjan-das/play-video-boss-day-out-ranjan-das-of-sap-india-229111-807ecfcf1ad966036c289b3ba6c376f2530d7484.html
Here he himself admits that he would love to get more sleep (and that he was not proud of his ability to manage without sleep, contrary to what others extolled).

The Evidence
Last week, I was interacting with a well-known cardiologist on a talk about 'Heart Disease caused by Lack of Sleep'. While I cannot share the video nor the slides because of confidentiality reasons, I have distilled the key points below in the hope it will save some of our lives.

Some Excerpts:

· Short sleep duration (<5 or 5-6 hours) increased risk for high BP by 350% to 500% compared to those who slept longer than 6 hours per night. Paper published in 2009.
As you know, high BP kills.
    * Young people (25-49 years of age) are twice as likely to get high BP if they sleep less. Paper published in 2006.
    * Individuals who slept less than 5 hours a night had a 3-fold increased risk of heart attacks. Paper published in 1999.
    * Complete and partial lack of sleep increased the blood concentrations of High sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-cRP), the strongest predictor of heart attacks. Even after getting adequate sleep later, the levels stayed high!!
    * Just one night of sleep loss increases very toxic substances in body such as Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Tumour Necrosis Factor-Alpha (TNF-alpha) and C-reactive protein (cRP). They increase risks of many medical conditions, includingcancer, arthritis and heart disease. Paper published in 2004.
    * Sleeping for <=5 hours per night leads to 39% increase in heart disease. Sleeping for <=6 hours per night leads to 18% increase in heart disease. Paper published in 2006.
Ideal Sleep

For lack of space, I cannot explain here the ideal sleep architecture. But in brief, sleep is composed of two stages: REM (Rapid Eye Movement) and non-REM. The former helps in mental consolidation while the latter helps in physical repair and rebuilding. During the night, you alternate between REM and non-REM stages 4-5 times.

The earlier part of sleep is mostly non-REM. During that period, your pituitary gland releases growth hormones that repair your body. The latter part of sleep is more and more REM type.

For you to be mentally alert during the day, the latter part of sleep is more important. No wonder when you wake up with an alarm clock after 5-6 hours of sleep, you are mentally irritable throughout the day (lack of REM sleep). And if you have slept for less than 5 hours, your body is in a complete physical mess (lack of non-REM sleep), you are tired throughout the day, moving like a zombie and your immunity is way down (I've been there, done that L)

Finally, as long-distance runners, you need an hour of extra sleep to repair the running related damage.

Barring stress control, Ranjan Das did everything right: eating proper food, exercising (marathoning!), maintaining proper weight. But he missed getting proper and adequate sleep, minimum 7 hours. In my opinion, that killed him.

If you are not getting enough sleep (7 hours), you are playing with fire, even if you have low stress.

I always took pride in my ability to work 50 hours at a stretch whenever the situation warranted. But I was so spooked after seeing the scientific evidence last week that since Saturday night, I ensure I do not even set the alarm clock under 7 hours. Now, that is a nice excuse to get some more sleep. J
Unfortunately, Ranjan Das is not alone when it comes to missing sleep. Many of us are doing exactly the same, perhaps out of ignorance. Please let others know.

HappY Sleeping :)
