Message For the Day…” You Must Know What is Right and What is Wrong …”

NatarajanLeave a comment

The world is a mixture of good and bad, of right and wrong, joy and sorrow, victory and defeat. In a world replete with such opposites, you must constantly make the choice between what is right and proper, and what is wrong and undesirable. You must not let yourself be guided by the mind. You must follow the directions of the intelligence. As long as you follow the mind, you cannot attain the Divine. Youth often tend to go by the inclinations of the mind, neglecting their intelligence and consequently are subject to agitations and frustrations. Discrimination is a big help to avoid such situations. Ask yourself “I am a human being; how must I conduct myself in this situation such as to win the respect and regard of others?” and act in accordance. You will certainly find the right answers on what you should do and where you should go. Humility and discrimination are the indexes of an educated person.

“கூடையிலே வேறு என்ன கொண்டு வந்திருக்கே …” !!!

NatarajanLeave a comment

எந்த பக்தராவது கொன்றைப்பூ கொண்டு வந்து கொடுத்தால், பெரியவாள் மிகவும் மகிழ்ச்சி அடைவார்கள் காரணம்; பரமேசுவரன் மிகவும் உவந்து ஏற்றுக் கொள்ளும் பூ-கொன்றைப்பூ.

ஒரு பக்தர்,கூடை நிறைய கொன்றைப் பூ கொண்டு வந்து சமர்ப்பித்தார். பெரியவாள் கூடையையே ஒரு நிமிஷம் உற்றுப் பார்த்தார்கள். “கூடையிலே வேறே என்ன கொண்டு வந்திருக்கே?” “கொன்றைப் பூ மட்டும்தான்” “இல்லே! பரமேசுவரனுக்கு உகந்த பூ மட்டும் கொண்டு வரலே. அவனுக்கு ஆபரணமும் கொண்டு வந்திருக்கே!”

யாருக்கும் விளங்கவில்லை. பூக்கூடையை சற்றுத் தள்ளி எடுத்துக் கொண்டு போய்,ஒரு மூங்கில் தட்டில் கவிழ்க்கச் சொன்னார்கள்.

தட்டில் கொட்டியவுடன், ஒரு சர்ப்பம் சர்ரென்று வெளிப்பட்டு நொடி நேரத்தில் ஓடி மறந்தே போயிற்று.

பரபரப்புடன் பெரியவாளிடம் வந்து சொன்னார்கள்.

பெரியவாள் புன்னகைக்கிற மாதிரி தரிசனம் கொடுத்துக் கொண்டு, அந்த பக்தரைப் பார்த்து,”இனிமேல் சந்திரமௌலீஸ்வரருக்கு பூ மட்டும் கொண்டு வா: ஆபரணம் எல்லாம் வேண்டாம்!” என்றார்கள்.

” Perfect Landing of Plane with Parachute …” !!!

NatarajanLeave a comment

 

A light plane that ran into trouble over Australia’s Blue Mountains has made a near-perfect landing – on the end of a parachute.

The pilot of the Cirrus aircraft deployed the parachute that is fitted to that make of plane and drifted down into the front garden of a house.

If the aircraft had not been carrying a parachute, police and flying experts agreed that the result could have been tragic.

Carried to safety: All four people on board landed safely in the front yard of a house in Larson, New South Wales

The pilot and his two passengers received only minor injuries after the unusual landing – witnessed by open-mouthed residents of the small town of Lawson.

Resident Robert Ross, who stared in astonishment at the sight of an aircraft coming towards him on the end of a parachute, said he had at first heard the engine splutter.

‘He got it going again and then it went dead,’ he told the Herald Sun newspaper.

No injuries: Amazingly everyone survived the terrifying incident with just one of the passengers requiring hospital attention for neck pain

‘It then started to go into a spiral. I thought the pilot was going to eject, but it all happened too quick.

‘I started yelling out to my wife “There’s a plane going to crash into the house”.’

The aircraft’s sudden descent was halted at around 4,000ft, however, when a huge parachute, with orange stripes, suddenly appeared above it and it drifted down about 400 yards from Mr Ross’s home.

Onlookers: Resident Robert Ross watched the entire drama unfold as he chopped wood in his back garden and said if it wasn't for the parachute the plane would have crashed into his house

Cirrus light planes have a handle in the cockpit which, when pulled, removes a cover plate and deploys a parachute.

Mr Allan Bligh, president of the Sydney Flying Club, told the paper that there were about 200 registered Cirrus planes in Australia, but a number of manufacturers decline to use the same parachute system believing a forced controlled landing should be carried out.

‘You are taught from your early days of flying that it is a far better system than the deployment of a parachute.’

Carried to safety: Since January this year Cirrus claims 85 lives have been saved by pilots activating the system

But Cirrus claims that 85 lives have been saved when pilots or passengers have activated the parachute system.

It is understood the Cirrus SR22, which came down in the Blue Mountains, was a demonstration model, which prompted Sydney radio host Stewart Bocking to comment today: ‘They were caught in a bit of a dilemma.

‘If the plane was being demonstrated, you wouldn’t want it known that it developed engine trouble – but you would also want it to be known that you can land safely on the end of a parachute.’

A staff member at Regal Air, which sells and carries out maintenance work on the aircraft from its headquarters at Sydney’s Bankstown Airport, said that if the passengers ‘had been in any other aircraft they wouldn’t be going home tonight to their families.’

Now … A Water Bottle That You Can Eat …!!!

Now, a water bottle that you can eat

London:  Finished drinking your bottle of water? Now eat it!

A design student in UK has developed an edible ‘bottle’ of water that could rid the world of excess plastic waste.

Rodrigo Garcia Gonzalez along with fellow Imperial College London students has been working on the Ooho water bottle for the past few years.

The bottle is made out of edible materials, looks like a jellyfish, and has the potential to put an end to the bottled water industry, ‘Smithsonian.com’ reported.

Inspired by the juice-filled pearls added to bubble tea and the creations of legendary Spanish chef Ferran Adria, who uses a technique of encasing liquid into edible membranes known as sheperification.

Gonzalez and his team first took a frozen ball of water and dipped it into a calcium chloride solution, which formed a gelatinous layer.

The ball was then soaked in another solution made from brown algae extract, which encapsulated the ice in a second squishy membrane to reinforce the structure.

Keeping the water in the algae solution for long periods of time allows the mold to become thicker and stronger.

“The main point in manipulating the water as solid ice during the encapsulation is to make it possible to get bigger spheres and allow the calcium and algae to stay exclusively in the membrane,” Gonzalez said.

Ooho has been tested in some European cities, but the researchers need to perfect it, as their edible bottles still don’t hold large amounts of water and can’t be resealed.

World”s Toughest Job… Are You Qualified ? …

Natarajan1 Comment

Consider this: you are at a job interview, all suited up, ready to brave the toughest questions the interviewer throws at you. Now imagine being told that the job you applied for is “the most important job.” Are you ready for this?

And are you ready for the job requirements? The person in charge would not only need to think on their feet but also be on their feet constantly; 24 hours a day, seven days a week. And there are no breaks available.

Along with excellent negotiation and interpersonal skills, the candidate must also have expertise in medicine, finance and culinary arts.

No holidays, extra work on occasions and staying up late with the associate are just some more necessities. “If you had a life, we would ask you to give that up,” says the interviewer.

And here’s the big one; the candidate must do this with a happy disposition and no salary. That’s right. You don’t get paid for this job.

“That’s almost cruel. Like a sick, twisted joke,” says one of the 24 candidates who applied for the job and were interviewed via recorded video chat. “That’s inhumane,” says another. “Nobody’s doing that for free,” says a third.

And that is when the assessor tells them that billions of people already hold this position, described as ‘Director of Operations.’

You’re in for a shock with this one. Are you ready to meet the person doing the world’s toughest job?

கேலி பேசி வாங்கிக் கட்டாதீர்!

சமீபத்தில், மின்சார ரயிலில் பயணித்துக் கொண்டிருந்தேன். அப்போது, பார்வை தெரியாத பெரியவர் ஒருவர், டி.எம்.எஸ்., குரலில், பழைய பாடல்களை, அசத்தலாய் பாடி, கையேந்தி வந்தார். அவரது குரல் வளத்தில் சொக்கிப்போன பயணிகள், ஐந்து ரூபாய், பத்து ரூபாய் என, அவரவர் விருப்பம்போல் வழங்கினர்.
அப்போது, போதையிலிருந்த சில இளைஞர்கள், ‘ஹலோ பிளைண்ட்… இந்த பாட்டை, எந்த, ‘கிளையன்டுக்கு டெடிகேட்’ செய்ய விரும்புறீங்க…’ என, கேட்டு, அவரைக் கலாய்த்தனர்.
இதைக் கேட்ட அந்த பெரியவர், ‘ஊனத்தை கிண்டல் செய்யும், சில ஈனப்பிறவிகளுக்கு, ‘டெடிகேட்’ செய்ய விரும்புறேன்…’ என, நெத்தியடியாக கூற, கூனிக் குறுகிப்போன அந்த இளைஞர்கள், ‘கப்சிப்’ ஆகி, அடுத்த ஸ்டேஷனில் இறங்கி, ‘எஸ்கேப்’ ஆகிவிட்டனர்.
மாற்றுத் திறனாளிகளை, பரிகாசம் செய்ய, எப்படித்தான் இவர்களுக்கு மனம் வருகிறதோ?

Message For the Day…”Understand the Value of Discipline and Adhere to it…”

NatarajanLeave a comment

Say you are expecting a train, a public transport that is supposed to arrive at 5 o’ clock. It is delayed by a few hours and doesn’t turn up until 8 or 9 p.m. How would you feel then? You first start to complain that the schedules of the trains and buses have no discipline and they don’t turn up on time. Then you start abusing the driver, the department, the government, and talk about it for a couple of days. When you complain so much about a delayed train or a bus which has no life, do you expect the world not abuse you, a conscious individual, when you do not adhere to your discipline, code of conduct and duty? All of you must understand the value of discipline and adhere to it consistently, and pass the test of discipline.

Lessons from a Japanese story

A 15 year old boy decided to study judo despite the fact that he had lost his left arm in a devastating car accident.

The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo master. The boy was doing well, so he couldn’t understand why, after three months of training the master had taught him only one move.

“Sensei,”(Teacher in Japanese) the boy finally said, “Shouldn’t I be learning more moves?” “This is the only move you’ll ever need to know,” the sensei replied.

Not quite understanding, but fully believing in his teacher, the boy kept training. Several months later, the sensei took the boy to his first tournament.

Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent became impatient and charged; the boy deftly used his one move to win the match. Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the finals.

This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. For a while, the boy appeared to be overmatched. Concerned that the boy might get hurt, the referee called a time-out.

He was about to stop the match when the sensei intervened. “No,” the sensei insisted, “Let him continue.” Soon after the match resumed, his opponent made a critical mistake: he dropped his guard. Instantly, the boy used his move to pin him. The boy had won the match and the tournament.

On the way home, the boy and sensei reviewed every move in each and every match. Then the boy summoned the courage to ask what was really on his mind.

“Sensei, how did I win the tournament with only one move?”

“You won for two reasons,” the sensei answered. “First, you’ve almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. And second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm.”

The boy’s biggest weakness had become his biggest strength…

Sometimes we feel that we have certain weaknesses and we blame our circumstances or ourselves for it but we never know that our weaknesses can become our strengths one day.

“Each of us is special and important, so never think you have any weakness, never think of pride or pain, just live your life to its fullest and extract the best out of it!”
CHEERS…
