 Alex: Hi John, you didn't come yesterday to office?                       

                                                                            

                                                                           

 John: Yeah, I was in Indian Embassy for stamping.                         

                                                                            

                                                                           

 Alex: Oh really, what happened, I heard that nowadays it has become very  

 Strict.                                                                   

                                                                            

                                                                           

 John: Yeah, but I managed to get it.                                      

                                                                           

                                                                           

 Alex: How long it took to get it stamped?                                 

                                                                            

                                                                           

 John: Oh, it was nasty man, long queue. Bill Gates was standing in front  

 of me and they played with him like anything. That's why it got delayed. I

 went there at 2 am itself and waited and returned by 4 pm .                

                                                                           

                                                                            

 Alex: Really? In India , it is a matter of an hour to get stamped for USA   

                                                                           

                                                                           

 John: Yeah, but that is because who in India will be interested in coming 

 to USA man, their economy has been booming.                               

                                                                           

                                                                            

 Alex: So, when are you leaving?                                           

                                                                           

                                                                            

 John: Anytime, after receiving my tickets from the client in India and you

 know, I will be getting a chance to fly Air-India. Sort of dream come     

 true.                                                                     

                                                                            

                                                                           

 Alex: How long are you going to stay in India ?                            

                                                                            

                                                                           

 John: What do you mean by how long? I will be settled in India , my company

 has promised me that they will process my Hara Patta.. (green card)       

                                                                           

                                                                           

 Alex: Really, lucky person man, it is very difficult to get a Hara Patta  

 in India .                                                                 

                                                                           

                                                                            

 John: Yeah, that's why; I am planning to marry an Indian girl there.      

                                                                           

                                                                            

 Alex: But you can find lots of US girls in Chennai, Bangalore andMumbai.  

                                                                           

                                                                           

 John: But, I prefer Indian girls because they are beautiful and CULTURED  

 Alex: Where did you get the offer, bangalore ?                            

                                                                           

                                                                            

 John: Yeah, salary is good there, but cost of living is quite high, it is 

 Rs. 1000/- for a single room accommodation.                               

                                                                            

                                                                           

 Alex: I see, that's too much for US people, Rs.1/- =$100/-. Oh God!       

 What about in chennai and mumbai?                                         

                                                                            

                                                                           

 John: No idea, but it is less than what we have in bangalore . It is like 

 the world headquarters of software                                         

                                                                           

                                                                           

 Alex: I heard, almost all the Indians are having one personal Robot for   

 help.                                                                     

                                                                           

                                                                            

 John: You can get a BMW car for Rs. 5000/-, and a personal Robot for less 

 than Rs.7500/-. But my dream is to purchase Ambassador, which costs       

                                                                            

                                                                           

 Rs.2, 00,000/- but has got a lovely design.                               

                                                                            

                                                                           

 Alex: B y the way, who is your client?                                    

                                                                           

                                                                            

 John: Iyer                                                                

 and Iyengar Associates, a pure Indian company, specializing in Embedded   

 Software.                                                                  

                                                                           

                                                                           

 Alex: Oh, really, lucky to work in a pure Indian company.                  

 They are really intelligent and unlike American Body shoppers who have    

 opened their Fly-by-night outfits in India . Indian companies pay you in   

 full even when you are on bench.                                          

                                                                            

                                                                           

 My friend Paul Allen, it seems, used his bench time to visit bihar , the  

 most livable place in India , Probably world. There you have full freedom  

 and no restrictions. You can do whatever you want! I wonder how that state

 has perfected that system.                                                

                                                                           

                                                                           

 John: Yeah man! You are right. I hope our America also follows their      

 footsteps.                                                                 

                                                                           

                                                                           

 Alex: How are you going to cope with their language?                      

                                                                           

                                                                           

 John: Why not? >From my school days I have been learning Hindi as my first

 language here at New York . At the Consulate they tested my proficiency in 

 Hindi and were quite impressed by my cent percent score in TOHIL i.e. Test

 of Hindi as International Language.                                       

                                                                            

                                                                           

 Alex: So, you are going to have fun there.                                

                                                                            

                                                                           

 John: Yeah, I will be traveling in the world's fastest train, world's     

 largest theme Park, and the famous Bollywood where you can see actors      

 like, Hrithik, Shah Rukh Khan and all. Esselworld is also near Bollywood. 

                                                                           

                                                                           

 Alex: You know, the PM is scheduled to visit US next year; he may then    

 relax the number of visas.                                                

                                                                           

                                                                            

 John: That's true. Last month, Narayana Murthy visited White House and    

 donated Rs. 2000/- for infrastructure development at Silicon Valley and   

 has promised more if we follow the model of High-Tech City of Hyderabad.  

 Bill Gates also got a chance of meeting him. Very lucky person.           

                                                                           

                                                                            

 Alex: But, Indian government is planning to split Narayanamurthy' s        

 Infosys.                                                                  

                                                                            

                                                                           

 John: He is a hard worker man; he can build any number of Infosys like    

 this. Every minute he is getting Rs. 1000/-. It seems, if you keep all his

 money converted as Rs. 100/- notes you can reach Pluto.                   

                                                                           

                                                                           

 Alex: OK, Good Luck John.

Kudos to these victims for setting up brave examples

The first episode of Satyamev jayate talked about the female foeticide and it started with sharing of experiences of victims who have faced these problems in their life.

The first victim guest on the show Satyamev Jayate was Amisha Yagnik from Ahmedabad. She told Aamir khan that she was forced by her husband and in-laws to abort her baby girl and it happened six times in eight years and she was able to give birth to a daughter only after she adamantly refused to bow down to her husband and in-laws. Now she as got separated from her husband and she is doing a job and taking care of her daughter on her own.

The second victim guest on the show was Parveen Khan who belongs form Morena, Madhya Pradesh told that her husband used to beat her whenever they had a fight and he grew more ferocious when Parveen khan decided to give birth to girl baby against his wishes. One day he sent his two daughters out to play and then he came in house and he came and holded Parveen strongly as she was lying on the bed and start biting her face with his teeth. He disfigured her face which was cured by a Plastic surgeon from Jaipur. The photographs of Parveen’s disfigured face were shown on the show and it was really gruesome.

The third victim guest was Mitu Khurana from Delhi, a doctor by profession, wife of an orthopaedic surgeon, daughter-in-law of a retired Professor from Delhi university and retired vice-principal mother-in-law. As soon as they came to know that Mitu is pregnant they started pressurizing her for the ultrasound, however when Mitu refused they played a trick on her and got the ultrasound. The result showed twin daughters and now they wanted them aborted, if not both atleast one, but Mitu didn’t succumbed to their pressure and gave birth to these daughters with her parent’s support. However, her returning to her husband’s house was a mistake as no one was helping her and taking care of twin daughters is not an easy task. As she was returning she kept her babies in a baby carrying basket and then her mother-in-law kicked one basket from the stairs to kill one daughter, the protection of blanket and other cloth saved the kid but it showed us that even well-educated section of society is barbaric from inside.

These three ladies are a great example for those who are facing this problem in their life and every lady should now take this decision that they will not let their daughter die like this.

Banana and it's benefits

A professor at CCNY for a physiological psych class told his class about bananas. He said the expression 'going bananas' is from the effects of bananas on the brain. Read on:

Never, put your banana in the refrigerator!!! 
This is interesting. 
After reading this, you'll never look at a banana in the same way again.

Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. 

Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes. 

But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

Depression: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier. 

PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood. 

Anemia : High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia. 

Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power: 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school ( England ) were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert. 

Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives. 

Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey.. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system. 
Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness. 

Mosquito bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation. 

Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.

Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and chips. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady. 

Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach. 

Temperature control: Many other cultures see bananas as a 'cooling' fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. InThailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood Enhancer tryptophan. 

Smoking &Tobacco Use: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal. 

Stress: Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack. 

Strokes: According to research in The New England Journal of Medicine, eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%! 

Warts: Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!

So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the

protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals.

It is also rich  in potassium and is one of the best value foods around So maybe it's time to change that well-known phrase so that we say,

'A banana a day keeps the doctor away!' 

PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so happy all the time! I will add one here; want a quick shine on our shoes?? Take the INSIDE of the banana skin, and rub directly on the shoe...polish with dry cloth.

 Amazing fruit !!!
