Why referees wear stripes



Referees typically wear clothing to distinguish themselves from the players. Since no team wants "vertical black and white stripes" in North America, this makes them visible as non team members. Such uniforms may be distinctive, and some traditional uniforms have come to be symbolically associated with the position (even if newer, alternative uniforms are increasingly used). Notable examples include the traditional black uniform worn by association football umpires and referees, or the vertical black and white stripes worn by referees in many North American sports.

Sri Ramakrishna's teachings on Interfaith

"Every man should follow his own religion. A Christian should follow
Christianity and a Mohammedan - Mohammedanism. For the Hindu, the ancient path -
the path of the Rishis is the best.

A truly religious man should think that other religions are also many paths
leading to the Truth. One should always maintain an attitude of respect towards
other religions".

As one and the same material, viz. water, is called by different names by different people--one calling it 'water,' another 'vâri,' a third 'aqua,' and another 'pani'--so the one Sat-kit-ânanda, the Everlasting-Intelligent-Bliss, is invoked by some as God, by some as Allah, by some as Hari, and by others as Brahman.

Destruction

Old age destroys beauty.
Hope destroys patience.
Death destroys life.
Anger destroys a fortune.
Serving a wicked person destroys good qualities.
Lust destroys shyness, while Pride destroys EVERYTHING.

The history of Ada

Overview

An understanding of the reasons why Ada was developed and the history of its development gives an appreciation of the language and its future.

History of Ada.

In 1974 the US Department of Defence (DoD) realised that it was spending too much time, effort and money developing and maintaining embedded computer systems (systems stuck in hardware e.g. missile guidance systems).

At this time over 450 different languages or language extensions were in use. This increased the time and costs for developing new systems and in continually retraining people to become familiar with existing systems. Maintenance was also hampered by the lack of standardisation of support tools ( editors, compilers etc). All these factors led to the DoD realising it needed a single powerful language that could be used by all embedded computer suppliers.

The developement work began in 1975 with the DoD producing a list of language requirements which was widely circulated; however no existing language specified the criteria so in 1977 DoD requested proposals for a new language. Unlike committee languages such as COBOL, the new language was the subject of a competition and extensive industry and academic review.

Of numerous entries four were selected for further refinement. This was later cut down to two competing entries from which one was finally selected from the company Cii-Honeywell Bull. This language was christened Ada. The design team was led by Jean Ichbiah who had overall control over the language.

In 1983 the language became an ANSI standard ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A. It became an ISO standard the following year. The language is defined in a reference manual often referred to as the LRM. References to this manual occur often in books on the language, and in many compiler error messages. This book is recommended for any Ada site; although hard to read it is the final authority for any Ada question (an ongoing group has been formed to clarify any inconsistancies detected in the language).

The language has since undergone revision, with ISO standardisation of the new standard achieved in early 1995. This new Ada fixes many of the flaws in the original language, and extends it in many useful ways.

To prevent the proliferation of various imcompatable versions of Ada the Ada Joint Program Office (the body set up for control of the language) took a very novel position - they trademarked the name Ada. You were not allowed to market "Ada" compilers unless they have passed a compliance test. This has subsequently been relaxed, the protected term now being `Validated Ada'.The resulting Ada validation certificate is limited in duration and has an expiry date. Once it expires the compiler can no longer be marketed as a `Validated Ada' compiler. In this way the AJPO has ensured that all currently marketed compilers comply with the current standards.

The aim is to ensure that any Ada program can be compiled on any system - in this regard the AJPO has succeeded better than many other language groups.

Design Goals

From the Ada LRM:"Ada was designed with three overriding concerns: program reliability and maintenance, programming as a human activity, and efficiency"

Of note is the sentence, also from the LRM:
"Hence emphasis was placed on program readability over ease of writing".

These design goals can be seen in the language. It has strong typing and enforcable abstractions which have shown to increase reliability and ease maintenance.

It eschews cryptic syntax for a more verbose English style for the sake of readability (readability, programming as a human activity). Also almost all constructs can be efficiently implemented.

Do we care for our parents...???

This was narrated by an IAF pilot to IIT students during a Seminar on Human Relations:
"Venkatesh Balasubramaniam (who works for IIT) describes how his gesture of booking an air ticket for his father, his maiden flight, brought forth a rush of emotions and made him (Venkatesh)realize that how much we all take for granted when it comes to our parents.

My parents left for our native place on thursday and we went to the airport to see them off. In fact, my father had never travelled by air before, so I just took this opportunity to make him experience the same.

In spite of being asked to book tickets by train, I got them tickets on Jet Airways. The moment I handed over the ticketsto him, he was surprised to see that I had booked them by air. The excitement was very apparent on his face, waiting for the time oftravel. Just like a school boy, he was preparing himself on that day and we all went to the airport, right from using the trolley for hisluggage, the baggage check-in and asking for a window seat and waiting restlessly for the security check-in to happen. He was thoroughly enjoying himself and I, too, was overcome with joy watching him experience all these things.

As they were about to go in for the security check-in,he walked up to me with tears in his eyes and thanked me. He became very emotional and it was not as if I had done something great but the fact that this meant a great deal to him. When he said thanks, I told him there was no need to thank me.

But later, thinking about the entire incident, I looked back at my life. As a child, how many dreams our parents have made come true.Without understanding the financial situation, we ask for cricket bats, dresses, toys, outings, etc. Irrespective of their affordability, they have catered to all our needs. Did we ever think about the sacrifices they had to make to accommodate many of our wishes? Did we ever say thanks for all that they have done for us?

Same way, today when it comes to our children, we always think that we should put them in a good school, regardless of the amount of donation. We ensure that we will have to give the child the best theme parks, toys, etc. But we tend to forget that our parents have sacrificed a lot for our sake to see us happy, so it is our responsibility to ensure that their dreams are realized and what they failed to see when they were young. It is our responsibility to ensure that they experience all those and their life is complete.

Many times, when my parents had asked me some questions, I have actually answered back without patience. When my daughter asks me something, I have been very polite in answering.

Now I realize how they would have felt at those moments. Let us realize that old age is a second childhood and just as we take care of our children, the same attention and same care needs to be given to our parents and elders. Rather than my dad saying thank you to me, I would want to say sorry for making him wait so long for this small dream. I do realize how much he has sacrificed for my sake and I will do my best to give the best possible attention to all their wishes.

Just because they are old does not mean that they will have to give up everything and keep sacrificing for their grandchildren also. They have wishes, too. Take care of your parents. THEY ARE PRECIOUS."

Religion lead to Bhakti and NOT blind-folded Viciousness








"Vinayagar Chadhurthi".
Sometimes we had to wonder, in the name of religion, what exactly we are trying to practice. Honesty speaking, one should definitely follow a religion for the reasons, religion paves way for us to development a fundamental good thinking and guides good practices for a better and healthier personal & social living.

And Hinduism being the fundamental and most ancient religion, imparts best of the knowledge for the mankind. How should we deal with people who wrongly interpret and make pecuriliar practices and habits in the name of religion?
Religion guides us to bhakthi and most times devotees of some parts of the Hindu Country, expresses religion as "Veri (Tamil Translated) or ferocious".
Religious practices are humble and for the good and cannot be cruel.
But see pictures, are we doing justice to our religion or the God?
Do we worship the Statue as God or we regard God as just a Statue?
Raise your consciousness and answer and act...
Regards,
Vijey

Think out of the box

Want to Innovate? Create a Problem

By Ted Santos and Deborah Brown



What exactly is innovation? Is it the result of long, arduous trials and errors? Or is it a practice that can be broken down into parts and learned? More importantly, does your company know how to effectively position its innovations and differentiation in the marketplace in order to drive sales and increase market share?

Rocking the Boat

Good managers solve problems, but great leaders create problems and then empower others in their organization to solve them. Creating problems leads directly to innovation.

Of course, deliberately creating problems is counterintuitive; we're wired to avoid problems. Culturally we're trained to get rid of problems. Businesses are structured to reward managers for their problem-solving skills. However, the keys to the executive suite are not available to managers who only solve problems. Does your organization have structures in place to reward people who create problems? What could happen when you don't have those structures?

More than a century ago, Henry Ford built an innovative company to solve a problem he created: make it possible for every American household to own an affordable automobile. He solved the problem by creating the assembly line. The people of Ford Motor Company changed the world. But, the company didn't look ahead, didn't pose new problems, didn't continue innovating. When GM introduced style and color in its cars, Ford lost market share to this new innovator.

In 1979, Sony brilliantly created the personal audio market with the Walkman. The company created a problem: develop a device that will allow individuals to listen to music privately, anywhere, anytime. Today, however, Apple dominates the digital personal audio market with a 78% market share in the U.S.

Signs that Your Company Lacks an Innovative Culture:

Your CEO spends more than 10% of his or her time solving problems. Top leadership needs to challenge the CEO to create a problem or take it upon itself to bring a challenge to him or her.
Your company is content with the status quo. Being content leaves you vulnerable to competitors who can disrupt your business model. Without risk, innovation becomes happenstance.
Your company's top line is growing while your bottom line is shrinking. Your products or services have become a commodity. There is nothing to differentiate you from your competitors. This is an ideal time to create a problem for your organization.
Employees are afraid of failure. A learning and innovative culture embraces failure; a project that fails can still be valuable to the company's larger goals. Employees should be encouraged to create problems themselves.
Management is disconnected from employees in terms of innovative ideas and moving the company forward. Often, companies make the mistake of going it alone―relying solely on management and/or research and development to come up with innovative and creative ideas, instead of engaging the brainpower of employees throughout the organization.
How to Create an Innovative Culture

Lay out the problem clearly, with a definite objective.
Make sure people have the tools they need to solve the problem you or your CEO created.
Get out of the employees' way as they solve it. Empower them to innovate.
Jack Welch, when taking over as General Electric's CEO, declared that every division must rank number 1 or number 2 in its industry―or be sold. Welch dared to imagine a future dramatically different from the past. This was'nt just a "cut costs by 3%" memo; this was a whole new vision, which could only be fulfilled by committed people with a new perspective on their business units and the possibilities.

What must happen to ensure buy-in for a vision that appears to be a problem? Organizations must design a culture that embraces a new mindset toward problems. Welch's problem gave people in the corporation a greater purpose. He didn't demand that people work harder and do better. He gave them an objective which didn't require him to micro manage. Individuals were responsible for creating goals for which they could claim ownership.

When a leader declares a future that doesn't exist, it's inherently a problem. It breaks from the past; it may demand new skills and competencies. When the leader stands for something bigger than the problem, however, that stand becomes the value system of the organization. The value system inspires and motivates people to innovate. When people are empowered to be innovative, their commitment increases; they have a chance to take new actions and be proud of their accomplishments. Indeed, when people are allowed to create problems themselves, cost efficiencies, new products, and new services are created.

Strategically Position Your Company

Once you have created a truly innovative culture it's important that you, as a leader, facilitate a communication structure and strategically position your company as an innovator in the marketplace. You've heard the old saying, "If a tree falls in the forest and there's no one to hear it, did it make a sound?" The same is true for companies: if your company is highly innovative, but prospects and customers don't know it, do your innovations really exist?

It's critical that companies understand how to position or reposition themselves in their industry. This involves developing a positioning statement that clearly differentiates your company from competitors, underscores your company's strengths and explains how your company and its products/services provide a solution to a problem. A positioning statement is not a tag line; it's a sentence or two that establishes your leadership position in your industry. It also provides direction for the company and keeps everyone focused on a common goal. And, it's important that it rings true with all constituents. It should be articulated by everyone in the company, from the CEO to the receptionist.

Risk and Reward

You can't have reward without risk. And nothing holds greater risks―and potential rewards―than creating problems in order to create the new products and markets that will transform your company into a recognized leader in its field.

One risk you can't afford to take is being complacent and accepting the status quo―that's perhaps the riskiest course of all.

Saving Private Ryan



One of the best war histories, "Saving Private Ryan". An humble captain John H. Miller (Tom Hanks) takes up a mission to find one man in the midst of the last great war. Steven Spielberg became the acedamy awards winner for his best direction. This movie takes you allow with the war, the commitment and focus of the soldier, their hard struggle and fight to save one man, 'James'. Tom Hanks at his best again has extactly thought what leadership, command and focus means. A life is no less of any value to live easy. When we live, we need to make our life meaningful in a way that we, EARN IT.

FUNDAMENTAL TRUTH

OM is the direct designation of the self-originating Absolute Truth, the supersoul, and is the secret essence and eternal seed of all Vedic hymns.

"Suta Goswami in Srimad Bhagavatam"

TRUSTWORTHY

He is a true friend who does not forsake us in time of need, misfortune, famine, or war, in a king's court, or at the crematorium.

--"Chanakya"--

EQUANIMITY

One who constantly dwells upon his misfortune loses all enthusiasm, mental equilibrium, and bodily strength. In this way he meets total defeat in life. On the other hand if a distressed person remains fixed and undisturbed, he can easily regain his position when the next opportunity arises.

--"Bhisma said to Yudhishtira in MAHABHARATA"--

Happy Feet

I should admit this animation movie changed my mind set that animation movies are for kids. This is a wonderful story of a baby penguin which is different from the general fleet of penguins which didnt know to walk properly and didnt know to sing. But yet it makes its weakness as a big difference and wins the heart of a love, proud parent and the fleet by saving its entire community. 'Mombo' never gives up, he keeps his esteem, he lives is life with all the difference.

I admire 'Mombo'. And its a lesson for parents to accept their child as they are.

I should also admit that this movie is very very special to me and unforgetable.

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World

This is one of the best comedies of 1963. Its again about a treasure chance and how people bog behind money. A comedy quiet nice to watch and enjoy.

The Great Escape (a true story)

I just film a trailer of the movie again here. The below movie is the motorcycle chance of Steve McQueen. Later it was found, the escape attempt in the camp led to invention of safety and ventilation systems in mining. I became very emotional on watching this film. One should definitely watch to know what fight means to live.

--Vijey--

The Great Escape

This is a true story from World War II. This movie of 1963 is a heart-touching film. It is about the PoW captives in a german camp who where torchered and starved in the prison. It was one of the greatest mass escape attempts so far which happened. We could learn, how under limitation of resource, the american war prisoners used the abilities to engineer the mining of a tunnel as an escape route out of their camp and from their trying to escape from germany to their home country. This movie teaches on how to view and handle situations. Confidence and courage on reality. A persistance and constant will to keep the efforts going. Steve McQueen, wonderfully played his role, and the only one who knows what isolation means and how was the feeling when he almost fell on the borders of swizzerland, yet returned as captive to the prison camp. This is a MUST SEE movie.

--Vijey--

The Good The Bad and The Ugly

This is one good old hollywoods i would like to watch. Definitely a good film to watch and should know for first few minutes there is no one who would talk in the movie. Its a hunt for treasure and good english and civilization that we could learn. I think i learnt my first slangs from this film too ;). If you should get a chance, you should enjoy watching this movie.

--Vijey--

300

'Spartan' known to be the finest soldiers of the ancient world who stand and live to dignity. "300" is a story of 300 spartans stand alone to fight against a million persians to defend their homeland. I should say, the graphics really cutting-edge and though the movie seems to be highly beyond human and superfical, its nice to watch. 'Spartans', the war heros, a movie with true action.

The Terminal

I'm a great fan of Tom Hanks. This movie, 'The Terminal' is a sensational movie, a simple honest gentle who lives to keep his promise. It is a story that could allow us to think on us and how we could bring our life to live, under any circumstances. A movie i always like to watch.

--Vijey--

Blood Diamond

A movie made fantastically, Blood Diamond is 'Bling Bang', which credentials are 'bling bling' to Leonardo DiCaprio. I should say, this movie is one of the best movies of Leonardo DiCaprio and well directed movie. I should say, its one of the best pictures that should be watched. Blood Diamond, is a pack of emotion, action, love and social problems. I wish you should make a chance to watch this movie, that would make you move.

Motivation, a management lesson

A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to hiscustomer, "This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you." The barber puts a five rupee coin in one hand and two one rupee coins (1+1=2) in the other, then calls the boy over and asks,"Which do you want, son?"

The boys face lights up, he takes the two one rupee coins and leaves. "What did I tell you?" said the barber. "That kid never learns!" Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store.

"Hey, son! May I ask you a question?Why did you take two one rupee coins instead of the five rupee coin?"The boy licked his ice cream cone and replied,"Because THE DAY I TAKE THE FIVE RUPEE COIN, THE GAME IS OVER.

Darkness of Society (1)

This is a story of a social set up that had always been cutting short the freedom of womenhood.
The idea of blogging is to provoke our idealogies and rethink our dimensions of a social life.
-------------
It should be summer, yet the friday set the clouds to umbrella my temple town from the shines of the sun. Missing the small drizzles over the gently shaking river, my good mumma and I, however made up our minds to enjoy the holiday occassion at my grandma's place. Mrs. Pooja, my mother begins to rush us to grab all our good clothes, and she just looks like the railway coal engine, just ready and wanna start off the station.
For some reason, those days had heavy regulations on daughter-in-laws, and visiting to their own mother's place is considered nothing less than a sin among the relatives, and nothing below equal to 1st order crime by the family hierarchy. Being the order of the society, Mrs. Pooja always await the summer holidays, undoubtedly, my good mom, just tries to rush the winters and the harvest festivals. I think, Mrs. Pooja always knows, with a large pleading and greater difficulties, shez gonna get a counted permission of 'a week break' from various hierarchy of the family. I should excuse myself that her husband somehow could not be 'allowed' to be part of the sanction & approval process. Though a holiday of just 7 days of 365 days, 'sanctioned', yet all faces around would envy and be just black enough that the whole of the earth can disappear and be unseen in the darkness.
For Mrs. pooja, the walk was coarse, the bushes around changed dark from their greens, the cows always made much noise and the sun could never smile, still she had her true smiles with all the innocences within it and a smile seen only by her children.
This was one part of society. "Some people" say always listen to parents, always listen to in-laws. Many marriage are done with the concent of parents, 'only' parents. Mrs. Pooja's marriage was no different from the 'so-called' custom arranged, traditional wedding. To what i know, Mr. Goglay, was very brave and a hard working gentleman, my grandfather and Mrs. Pooja's father. When i sit in silence, looking deep into the seas, its silence always speak to my hears, "his own society gave no chance to see his daughter, Mrs. Pooja's married life as happy as it should be and he died brittle and broken without ever voicing for Mrs. Pooja, his daughter".
When these silence speaks, even the sounds of heart beats seems to go silent. The whole purpose of Subramaniya Bharathi has gone unseen by the society and the womenhood had been betrayed.

Four Dont's of your Resume

When we talk of a beginning of our career or a change of job, the first and preliminary important activity is the preparation of a good resume. In view to help benefit with some information for the readers, I wish to share the below information with the readers.
Four Dont's of your Resume..
Troublesome Typos

"I often use a laptap". "I will accept nothing less than $18 annually".
In a survey, 84 percent of executives polled said it takes just one or two typographical errors in a resume to remove a candidate from consideration for a job opening. Hiring managers view your resume as an indication of your attention to detail, and a mistake will convince potential employers you lack it. So, after running your computer's spell-check function, ask a friend to review your application materials.

Sharing Too Many Secrets

"Interests: Running, editing video, cooking, writing and wondering".
"Able to say the ABCs backward in under five seconds".
Hiring managers often have dozens of resumes to review and appreciate being able to scan them quickly. If you include unnecessary information -- such as your hobbies, marital status or personal trivia -- potential employers may simply bypass your application. Omit details that don't directly demonstrate how you can benefit the employer, and tailor each document to the specific company and position.

Overly Casual Conversation

"If U hire me, U will not have any regrets!"
"I don't have a phone 4 the time being. Please email me instead".
Remember that you're writing a professional document to be read by a prospective employer, not dashing off a quick email or text message to a friend. Hiring managers will use your resume to gauge your level of professionalism, so steer clear of informal language, unconventional acronyms and emotions.

Tech Transgressions

Before you hit the send button, check to make sure you've attached the correct document. For example, one candidate sent an e-mail addressed to a competing firm. Another applicant submitted a fact sheet about California's population instead of his resume. Also check the labels you give the documents. Files with generic or informal names can get lost on a hiring manager's hard drive or cause a prospective employer to doubt your professionalism. Using your full name as a label is much better than "Oh Boy.doc" or "Hey there.doc" -- both real examples, by the way.
Last but not least, it's best to forego smoke and mirrors. You don't want to leave hiring managers scratching their heads, like the following applicant surely did: "I am a wedge with a sponge taped to it. My purpose is to wedge myself into someone's door to absorb as much as possible."
----------
Have a good day!!
