IS the Media Creating Stories/News

Recently for last one to two years I thinks the Media in India does not work in reponsible manner. The media need to highlights the suffering , probelm of the people.They also need to present the viewer with correct and accurate fact of a stories , news. But with huge no of channels, Print medium I think the channel are trying to make new news and stories by themselves. either they creates a Scandals or controvesy .Another method is showing a scandal of the another channel program. A new method of creating stories is like making investigation which is good if it is aimed to a purpose to remove such a problem. Difference will occur when such investigation are created for a political advantage. On major phenomenon seen now a days is that highlighting those part of the news which are advantages to them both political and market vice. This is done by either pratical reportingor false reporting There are various other techniques which will be dicussed later

FREE TRADE AGREEMENT WITH ASEAN COUNTRIES

India has recently signed an agreement with the ASEAN countries for free trade. Free trdae means no import tax will be applicable any more. Is this treaty a good or bad. How is it going to affect the Agricultural products of Indian Farmers. Most of countries in ASEAN are small countries. but they have an efficent cost effective mechanism for various agriculture than india. the list of item that are not within the list of ASEAn trade agreement and those within the agreement will know once the final document is made public. How far it is going to affect the farmers. Consider Kerala state with maximum production of Rubber , coconut oil, spice items like cardomon, pepper,coffee, Tea.Even without the trade agreement for those item the price the farmer is getting is less. I used to sell the coconut for Rs 5 which is not a good price. If the proposed free trade with low import duty for cooking oil then cooking oil from other countries will enter our country and there will be no demand for

POOR MONSOON

Monsoon In India was fairly poor this year. Most of the part in India are in severe drought. States like Bihar, Rajasthan, Madhyapradesh,UP, Harayana. As per the weather dept the cause for the poor monsoon is the pacfic wind named elisa. it is diverting the rain cloud away. poor monsoon will lead to drought and famine in India. More over huge price rise will also be another effect of it. already the price for vegeatble , grocey etc are 66 % more than what it was two month before. Govt need to act immedatiely. In Kerala also the monsoon is weak. In distrct like trivandrum , kollam are having around 44% shortage in actual rain fall. It will lead to shortage of drinking water as well as electricity production in States. It is time that we (Indian) all need to put our hand together to pray to Rain God to give a good spell of Rain for two or three week.

Fuel for Love

Researchers have found that many foods contain hundreds of chemical compounds that have very specific, and sometimes sex-enhancing, effects. Chilies They contain capsaicin, a chemical compound that causes your heart to race and your skin to flush—a sure sign that blood flow is on the fast track. They dilate blood vessels and help all of that blood get where it's needed Chocolate There's a good reason women often call it the love food. The cocoa in chocolate contains stimulants that increase skin sensitivity. Chocolate also contains compounds that are chemically similar to the euphoria-inducing hormone your body produces when you're in love. Citrus Nearly all fresh and frozen fruits are high in vitamin C; oranges, grapefruit, and other citrus fruits are C standouts. University of Texas researchers report that men who get at least 200 milligrams of vitamin C a day have higher sperm counts than those who consume less. Vitamin C also keeps your sperm from clumping, so your boys

ASTHMA

Managing the Wheezing Cases of childhood asthma are on the rise, which can be pretty frightening for parents. But the rise in asthma has been accompanied by much research on the subject, and today many doctors can recognize the early symptoms of asthma and help children with this condition. It's not always easy for parents to recognize that a child has asthma. ''About half of those with asthma never wheeze,'' says Ted Kniker, M.D., professor of pediatrics, microbiology and internal medicine in the Division of Pulmonology, Allergy and Critical Care Medicine in the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. ''Coughing is the most common symptom, and especially coughing at night.

Injuries force Schumacher to call off F1 comeback

The seven-time world champion was to fill in for injured Ferrari driver Felipe Massa and hoped to return at the European Grand Prix in Valencia, Spain, later this month. However, Schumacher said on his Web site he informed top Ferrari officials on Monday evening that "unfortunately I'm not able to step in for Felipe." Schumacher, 40, retired at the end of the 2006 season. Since then, he has raced occasionally in a motorcycling series but was injured in a crash in February. "The consequences of the injuries caused by the bike accident in February, fractures in the area of head and neck, unfortunately have turned out to be still too severe," Schumacher said. "That is why my neck cannot stand the extreme stresses caused by Formula One yet." "I really tried everything to make that temporary comeback possible. However, much to my regret it didn't work out," he added. "Unfortunately we did not manage to get a grip on the pain in the neck&

ANOTHER TEST FOR SCHUMACHER

Michael Schumacher has been given another two days of track testing before suiting up for the European Grand Prix in Valencia. Schumacher, who has been banned from testing one of the more recent models of Ferrari's cars by the objection of Williams and both Red Bull teams, will use an older 1007 version for a couple of days to see if his neck can hold out as he tries to adapt his body to the rigours of racing. "It is currently planned that Michael will drive Tuesday and Wednesday at Mugello," Schumacher's spokeswoman Sabine Kehm told Bild, "He can again use the 2007 car belonging to [Ferrari's] F1 Clienti, albeit on his own initiative and at his own expense." Kehm added that the test would be 'a closed' one as the German racing legend makes his final preparations to replace Felipe Massa in the line-up for Ferrari in Spain. Schumi will also be unveiling new Schuberth headgear, a helmet that has implemented the improvements to combat a repeat of in

WHAT IS PATRIOTISM?

THE NATION celebrating its 61st Independence Day . India ’s struggle for Independence is a saga of those thousands of men, women and even children who sacrificed their lives for the freedom of the nation. And so by celebrating Independence Day, a homage is paid to all those who fought to bring Independence to our country. But gone are the days when every Indian citizen valued the importance of this great day. Time has eroded those sentiments and now we observe this day just like any other day or a holiday. Children are forced to go to schools to attend the flag hoisting ceremony by making attendance compulsory. Children seems to have no feeling for this day and the same can be said for the adults in our country also. The Oxford dictionary defines patriotism as devoted love, support, and defence of one’s country; national loyalty. But the word patriotism cannot be restricted and is very subjective in nature. One need not play cricket matches or fight wars to express their feeling of

Thought for the Day

A saint asked his disciples, 'Why do we shout in anger? Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?' Disciples thought for a while, one of them said, 'Because we lose our calm, we shout for that.' 'But, why to shout when the other person is just next to you?' asked the saint. 'Isn't it possible to speak to him or her with a soft voice? Why do you shout at a person when you're angry?' Disciples gave some other answers but none satisfied the saint. Finally he explained, 'When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distance a lot. To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to hear each other through that great distance.' Then the saint asked, 'What happens when two people fall in love? They don't shout at each other but talk softly, why? Because their hearts are very close. The distance between them is very small...' The sai

Breathing Therapy

The nose has a left and a right side; we use both to inhale and exhale. Actually they are different; you would be able to feel the difference. The right side represents the sun, left side represents the moon. During a headache, try to close your right nose and use your left nose to breathe. In about 5 mins, your headache will go? If you feel tired, just reverse, close your left nose and breathe through your right nose. After a while, you will feel your mind is refreshed. Right side belongs to 'hot', so it gets heated up easily, left side belongs to 'cold'. Most females breathe with their left noses, so they get "cooled off" faster. Most of the guys breathe with their right noses, they get worked up. Do you notice the moment we wake up, which side breathes faster? Left or right? ? If left is faster, you will feel tired. So, close your left nose and use your right nose for breathing, you will get refreshed quickly. This can be taught to kids, but it is more ef

The seven-times world champion also worked on the simulator on Thursday, in particular to get a feel for the current steering wheel and its plethora of buttons.] "I was in Maranello to check the functionality of the steering wheel at the static simulator," confirmed Schumacher. "Of course, I also took the opportunity to again discuss with the engineers how to proceed further. "There is this test ban in Formula One, therefore I contacted some of the guys from F1 Clienti (the technician
