Simple Truths - We Hope You Enjoyed the movie!

....that obstacles are not opposing you, but merely and
gently re-routing you.

It is important not to view that which stands in your
way as your 'enemy.' It can often be your best friend,
sending you on a detour that takes you around what
could have been your biggest stumbling block.

Send a word of gratitude, then, for anything that seems
to be 'opposing' you now. All things in life happen for
good.

Ladies ! Please enjoy this

After  posting "Ladies ! Please excuse me " and appealed to send jokes on men. One of the few received is below.
 http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/7618/sweetkidsemotionsfunzug.jpg

For all those men who say, Why buy a cow when you can get milk for free. Here's an update for you: Nowadays, 80% of women are against marriage, WHY? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage. 

1. Men are like Laxatives. They irritate the crap out of you.  

2 Men are like Bananas. The older they get, the less firm they are. 

3.Men are like Weather. Nothing can be done to change them.   

4. Men are like Blenders. You need One, but you're not quite sure why.  

5. Men are like Chocolate Bars .. Sweet, smooth, & they usually head right for your hips. 

6. Men are like Commercials. You can't believe a word they say.

7. Men are like Department Stores ... Their clothes are always 1/2 off! 

8.Men are like ..Government Bonds ..... They take soooooooo long to mature.

9. Men are like ..Mascara . They usually run at the first sign of emotion. 

10.Men are like Popcorn. They satisfy you, but only for a little while.     

11. Men are like Snowstorms. You never know when they're coming, how many inches you'll get or how long it will last. 

12. Men are like Lava Lamps . Fun to look at, but not very bright.     

13. Men are like Parking Spots All the good ones are taken, the rest are handicapped.

....that progress is not measured in miles, it is measured
in inches.

Do not wonder why things are "taking so long." In fact,
everything is rolling out exactly as it needs to, using
not a minute more than Perfection requires.

Rest easy and be at peace. Life is working its magic
even as you take your very next breath.

Caution for all working in Kitchen

http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/551/p1000372g.jpg

I was talking to someone I know, a person who is normally quite lively and chirpy but who sounded rather down and depressed this morning. This is the story that I heard, the reason behind the depression... A family friend had died due to burns sustained in the kitchen.
 
The gas stove was on, cooking under process. The lady observed some cockroaches near the sink and grabbed a can of insect repellent and sprayed it..Near the gas stove, which was on/burning. There was an explosion and in no time the poor woman was covered in flames, sustained 65% burns. Her husband rushed in, tried to douse the flames and his clothes too caught fire. The husband is still in hospital, in the burns ward, still unaware that his wife has succumbed, dead on arrival.

I've been trying to gather some information on the insect repellents such as "Hit", "Mortein" etc. Are they inflammable? I guess they are, and the nano-particles spread extremely rapid .
Did the poor lady realize the hazard involved? Apparently not!

Spread the word around.... who knows?

Of course these insecticides are inflammable - BEWARE OF THE SAME ! Don't use them while the burner is on in the kitchen
.

    ...that illness is not a sign of spiritual weakness, but of
    spiritual strength.

    When we fall ill there are some who will say, "Why
    did you create that for yourself?" They might convince
    you to see it as a sign of spiritual weakness or failure.
    It is not. It is a sign of spiritual strength.

    All challenges are a sign a spiritual strength, and of
    the readiness of the Soul to move on; to evolve even
    further.

    Ramji, S/o Director K. Subramaniam was our close friend. He one day announced that he is going to start a music troupe. He told us"Oru nalla per sollungadaa" We shouted in chorus "Nee music troupe aarambikkaraya? Abaswarama illa irukkum !" He was always sportive and wanted to do something different. He said "Idhe nalla irukkudaa. Appadiye vaichudaren" and he was running a troup in this name. Subsequently he is the pioneer of creating many child geniuses in carnatic music as Ramji's Mazhalai chelvangal is history

    Why now is the right time to bring home the black money from tax havens abroad

    http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/6240/image001ii.jpg











    Thanks to Baba Ramdev, concern about vast quantities of black 
    money and illegal wealth of Indians stashed in tax havens abroad 
    has spread far and wide among the public in our country. 
    Suddenly Switzerland has become a suspect destination and tax 
    authorities have said they will monitor Indians travelling to that 
    country and other tax havens.

    The current rulers claim that they have done more than any 
    previous regime to deal with the issue of black money and 
    tax havens. They question the credibility of earlier governments 
    of V.P. Singh, Atal Bihari Vajpayee and others, and say that 
    they did not do anything.

    However, to set the record straight, there has been a sea 
    change in the international attitudes to the role of tax havens 
    prior to global financial meltdown of 2008 and after. While 
    earlier, there was a certain global indulgence towards them 
    as “innovative” financial centers, they have since 2008 come 
    under pressure from powerful Western countries such as USA 
    and Germany to cooperate in the investigation of money 
    laundering, tax evasion, and recovery of illegal wealth earned 
    through criminal and corrupt dealings. There is no more a climate 
    of tolerance towards illegal financial transactions, and due to 
    pressure from OECD and international agreements such as the 
    UN Convention Against Corruption, Switzerland and other tax 
    havens stand ready to share information and cooperate in the 
    repatriation of illegal wealth; this has already happened in the 
    case of Philippines, Peru and Nigeria, and only recently Swiss 
    banks froze the wealth in the accounts of Tunisia’s ousted 
    president and forty leading figures in his government.

    Also, we need to remember that whatever action being taken 
    by the present Government is due to prodding by the Supreme 
    Court based on a case filed by Ram Jethmalani and other 
    senior citizens and not out of its own volition.

    What has happened now?

    After the twin towers attack on 9/11 in the USA in 2001, 
    attention turned to the financing of international terrorism. 
    Around 2006 many countries in the West realized that 
    terrorists are using the tax havens for funding of arms 
    smuggling and terror financing. Because of the secrecy 
    provided by the banking system in these off-shore 
    jurisdictions, the terrorists were finding it easier to route 
    their funds through these locations. 
    Hence the functioning of the tax havens came under the radar 
    screen of the US and other Western countries.

    Then came the financial meltdown in US and Europe in the year 
    2008, from which these countries are yet to fully recover. The 
    meltdown impacted US after their sub-prime crisis wherein a 
    significant number of banks and other financial institutions had to 
    be saved by the Government. Later it spread to Europe with one 
    country after another facing severe economic crisis. This is 
    primarily due to lack of savings by households and consumption 
    in excess of savings. Crisis of such magnitude with significant 
    unemployment, made these countries look closely at the tax havens 
    since their rich citizens were evading taxes by stashing funds in 
    these locations. It is like a severe crisis in a family wherein members 
    desperately try to find some money under the rice box or inside 
    some old books!

    France and Germany were in the forefront of the fight against tax 
    havens. UK is a reluctant follower since UK has good number of 
    tax havens under its own protection. USA is also against its citizens 
    hiding money in these tax havens.

    Around late 2007 Germany obtained from an informant data stolen 
    from the LGT Bank of Liechtenstein and got information about 
    thousands of names having illegal money in that bank. The chief of 
    German Post had to resign since his name was there in that list. 
    The German foreign minister announced that he would share the 
    data with any other country interested. US, UK, Australia, and 
    many other countries showed interest and collected the data. 
    India was not interested. After much prodding by the leader 
    of opposition in Parliament that time namely, L.K. Advani, the 
    government approached German authorities and has been able 
    to obtain data on accounts held by Indians.

    Even after getting it the Government has not shown interest in 
    releasing the names. Presumably there are nearly 100 Indian 
    names. Government hides behind the double taxation treaty with 
    Germany when this data has nothing to do with that treaty since 
    it is about Indians illegally holding money in a third country bank 
    namely that of Liechtenstein.

    Thus, the global situation is conducive now compared to ten or 
    twenty years ago to deal with these tax havens. The main reasons 
    are concern about terror financing in USA and Europe and the 
    economic meltdown in developed economies which have made 
    these countries decide not to show any forbearance towards illegal 
    money stashed in these jurisdictions.

    So the contention that nothing was done by V.P. Singh, or by 
    P.V. Narasimha Rao or by Vajpayee is not meaningful since 
    in those days the global situation was not conducive to raise 
    issues about tax havens. Actually USA and Europe were praising 
    these tax havens and even calling them “innovative” financial 
    centers. Post 2008 the entire situation has changed.

    Hence the present is the most appropriate time to deal with this 
    issue and India should take a lead in the campaign to close all 
    these tax havens and create a new global financial architecture 
    based on transparency and integrity rather than on privacy and 
    secrecy

    ..that enthusiasm is half of the journey to success, and
    all of the journey to joy.

    If you're going to do something, do it with gusto. Don't
    do anything half-heartedly. That dishonors the doing
    and the doer. So go for it. Hold nothing back. In life.
    Or love. Or anything at all.
