ஒரு சமகால சகாப்தம் மறைந்து விட்டது....

எழுத்தாளர், பொறியியல் வல்லுநர், விஞ்ஞானி சுஜாதா S.Rengarajan (1935-2008) மறைந்து விட்டார்.
For most people like me, in my generation, he was the main reason we can claim to have read literary work in Tamil.
Personally, for someone who started off reading mostly English Fiction very young, his conceptualization skills and fresh writing style were the sole reasons that attracted me to read Tamil fiction and non-fiction.
அவரது எழுத்து திறன் அர்த்தமுள்ளது, புதுமையானது, நிலையானது.
அவரது படைப்புகளை படித்து, வசீகரிக்க படாதவர்கள் கண்டிப்பாக இருக்கவே முடியாது.
என் வயதுடைய தமிழர்களில் வெகு சிலரே சுஜாதாவின் எழுத்துக்களை சுவைத்திருக்க மாட்டார்கள், ஆற்றலை வியந்திருக்க மாட்டார்கள்.
Besides writing, he was truly multi-faceted.
A gifted Engineer - Election Commission of India owes a lot to him. He was the Chief of the Group at BEL that devised the EVM (Electronic Voting Machine)
எனக்கு தெரிந்து உலகில் சிலருக்கு மட்டுமே மாற்று (alternatives) கிடையாது, இருக்க முடியாது - அதில் சுஜாதாவும் ஒருவர்.
This is certainly a huge loss to Tamil and Tamil Nadu, in recent times.
It might take a generation or two to fill up the void.
May his Soul rest in peace.
May he be remembered and read by many many more generations to come....

EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
Came across a presentation on EI - after a long time.
Suddenly realized how relevant it is to all of us - across age groups - especially now when we are so stressed up.
EI - the simple common sense subject can help everyone of us - if only we have the commitment and good sense to practise it.
emotion refers to a state of feeling. It is explained as a conscious mental reaction (as anger or fear) subjectively experienced as a strong feeling usually directed toward a specific object and typically accompanied by physiological and behavioral changes in the body
intelligence refers to the capacity to reason validly available information. It is the capacity for learning, reasoning, understanding, and similar forms of mental activity; aptitude in grasping truths, relationships, facts, meanings, etc.
Both are innate in our self and as well as in others.
The ability to harness them towards desired results is EI.
Emotional Intelligence (EI) describes an ability, capacity, or skill to perceive, assess, and manage the emotions of one's self, of others, and of groups.
It is the innate potential to feel, use, communicate, recognize, remember, describe, identify, learn from, manage, understand and explain emotions.
WHY EI ?
Researchers have concluded that
- in brain-based learning, emotional health is fundamental to effective learning,
- the most critical element for a student's success in school is an understanding of how to learn,
- a student who learns to learn is much more apt to succeed,
- students who manage their own feelings well and deal effectively with others are more likely to perform better and
- basically - happy people are more apt to retain information and do so more effectively than dissatisfied people.
Building one's Emotional Intelligence has a lifelong impact.
Many parents and educators, alarmed by increasing levels of conflict in young schoolchildren--from low self-esteem to early drug and alcohol use to depression, are rushing to teach students the skills necessary for Emotional Intelligence.
Some easy suggestions to acquire effective emotional competency.....
1. Become emotionally literate.
Label your feelings, rather than labeling people or situations.
"I feel impatient." vs "This is ridiculous.
" I feel hurt and bitter". vs. "You are an insensitive jerk."
"I feel afraid." vs. "You are driving like a idiot."
2. Distinguish between thoughts and feelings.
Thoughts: I feel like...& I feel as if....
Feelings: I feel: (feeling word)
3. Take more responsibility for your feelings.
"I feel jealous." vs. "You are making me jealous."
4. Use your feelings to help them make decisions.
"How will I feel if I do this?"
"How will I feel if I don't ?"
5. Show respect for other people's feelings.
Ask "How will you feel if I do this?" "How will you feel if I don't."
6. Feel energized, not angry.
Use what others call "anger" to help feel energized to take productive action.
7. Validate other people's feelings.
Show empathy, understanding, and acceptance of other people's feelings.
8. Practice getting a positive value from emotions.
Ask yourself: "How do I feel?" and "What would help me feel better?"
Ask others "How do you feel?" and "What would help you feel better?"
9. Don't advise, command, control, criticize, judge or lecture to others.
Instead, try to just listen with empathy and non-judgment.
10. Avoid people who invalidate you.
While this is not always possible, at least try to spend less time with them, or try not to let them have psychological power over you.

It is the innate potential to feel, use, communicate, recognize, remember, describe, identify, learn from, manage, understand and explain emotions.
Put in a "easy to remember" acronym - it is to KUMU your emotions.
Know
Understand
Manage
Use
The first published definition was made by Salovey and Mayer (1990) who defined EI as “the ability to monitor one's own and others' feelings and emotions, to discriminate among them and to use this information to guide one's thinking and actions”.
This was later revised to "The ability to perceive emotion, integrate emotion to facilitate thought, understand emotions, and to regulate emotions to promote personal growth".
The components are
Perceiving,
Understanding,
Managing and
Using various emotions to achieve intended goals.
DANIEL GOLEMAN is another notable authority on EI.
To him EI is a master aptitude, a capacity that profoundly affects all other abilities, either facilitating or interfering with them.
His model has the following components –
· Self-awareness - the ability to read one's emotions and recognize their impact while using gut feelings to guide decisions.
· Self-management - involves controlling one's emotions and impulses and adapting to changing circumstances.
· Social-awareness - the ability to sense, understand, and react to other's emotions while comprehending social networks.
· Relationship Management - the ability to inspire, influence, and develop others while managing conflict.
There are certain core emotional competencies that are necessary to be an expert in these components.
These emotional competencies are not innate talents, but rather learned capabilities that must be worked on and developed to achieve outstanding performance.
Goleman posits that individuals are born with a general emotional intelligence that determines their potential for learning emotional competencies.
Acquiring emotional competencies is possible only by conscious commitment and regular practice.
Goleman attests that the best remedy for battling our emotional shortcomings is EI – the preventive medicine.
In other words, we need to place as much importance on teaching ourselves and our younger generation the essential skills of Emotional Intelligence as we do on more traditional measures like IQ and GPA.
Goleman adds that the same principles can be applied in our work place, our teams and organizations for maximum prosperity and success.
Goleman states that over 80% our success at work depends on our level of EI.
Put in simple terms, in EI – the primary focus is on the following charactersistics and capabilities.....
1. Self-awareness--knowing your emotions, recognizing feelings as they occur, and discriminating between them
2. Mood management--handling feelings so they're relevant to the current situation and you react appropriately
3. Self-motivation--"gathering up" your feelings and directing yourself towards a goal, despite self-doubt, inertia, and impulsiveness
4. Empathy--recognizing feelings in others and tuning into their verbal and nonverbal cues
5. Managing relationships--handling interpersonal interaction, conflict resolution, and negotiations

MOZHI - A gr8 Celluloid Creation
Happened to watch MOZHI.
Mozhi in one line is a clean entertainer.
Mozhi is worth every bit of time, money and effort spent on getting to watch it.......
While watching the movie - you laugh, you cry, you identify, you empathize, you smile, you enjoy - all in the right proportion.....and you feel elated at the end of it all.......
The 'pleasant' feeling that lingers when you walk out after the movie makes it worth it. Absolutely!
Mozhi is all about
* all round stunning performances (Swarnamalya is the most surprising package...... and looks sensational too!!!),
* sensible screenplay,
* absolutely enjoyable scenes,
* meaningful dialogs (look out for What is Music to Jyotika sequence!!!),
* soothing music,
* excellent visuals,
* eye catching art design (look out for Jyothika's ROOM - what colors/mood !!!!) and
* the omnipresent humor as the undercurrent - the humor is very much our everyday type - not concoted just for the sake of it but simple on the spot type from simple situations (look out for the CBI matter at the Church!!!!!)
Mozhi treads a desirable path while once again disproving the popular and oft repeated myth
"films that are made are what people expect and look for" which is more of a silly justification than a real reflection of what the truth of the matter is.
The fact this path breaking trend has started happening more often now augurs well for the industry and the audience.
On one of the episodes of Kofee with Anu on VijayTV were Prakash Raj and Prithviraj who spoke a lot about Mozhi.
When you watch the movie, you understand why they were so elaborate.
There is every justification in what they said.
If having watched the movie makes people feel so thrilled, imagine what would be producing and performing in it be like.......
Read up the following links and try to watch the movie - if you have not - TILL NOW !!!!!!!
http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/tamil/review/8226.html
http://www.rediff.com/movies/2007/feb/26ssmoz.htm
Enjoy MOZHI. Very sure everyone will................
And pray Tamil Cinema grows us and keeps making movies like MOZHI more often..........

LOGIC LESSONS.....
Quite Interesting....
If your father is a poor man,
it is your fate but,
If your father-in-law is a poor man,
it's your stupidity.
.......................................................................
I was born intelligent -
education ruined me
........................................................................
Practice makes perfect.....
But nobody's perfect......
so why practice?
.......................................................................
If it's true that we are here to help others,
then what exactly are the others here for?
.......................................................................
Since light travels faster than sound,
people appear bright until you hear them speak.
........................................................................
How come "abbreviated" is such a long word?
.......................................................................
Money is not everything.
There's Mastercard & Visa.
........................................................................
One should love animals.
They are so tasty.
.......................................................................
Behind every successful man, there is a woman
And behind every unsuccessful man, there are two.
.......................................................................
Every man should marry.
After all, happiness is not the only thing in life.
.......................................................................
The wise never marry
and when they marry they become otherwise. ........................................................................
Success is a relative term.
It brings so many relatives.
.......................................................................
Never put off the work till tomorrow
what you can put off today.

"Your future depends on your dreams"
So go to sleep.

There should be a better way to start a day
Than waking up every morning .

But why take the risk.

"Work fascinates me"
I can look at it for hours.
......................................................................
God made relatives;
Thank God we can choose our friends.
.......................................................................
The more you learn, the more you know,
The more you know, the more you forget
The more you forget, the less you know
So.. why learn??

A bus station is where a bus stops.
A train station is where a train stops.
On my desk, I have a work station....
What more can I say........
Quite Interesting....
If your father is a poor man,
it is your fate but,
If your father-in-law is a poor man,
it's your stupidity.
.......................................................................
I was born intelligent -
education ruined me
........................................................................
Practice makes perfect.....
But nobody's perfect......
so why practice?
.......................................................................
If it's true that we are here to help others,
then what exactly are the others here for?
.......................................................................
Since light travels faster than sound,
people appear bright until you hear them speak.
........................................................................
How come "abbreviated" is such a long word?
.......................................................................
Money is not everything.
There's Mastercard & Visa.
........................................................................
One should love animals.
They are so tasty.
.......................................................................
Behind every successful man, there is a woman
And behind every unsuccessful man, there are two.
.......................................................................
Every man should marry.
After all, happiness is not the only thing in life.
.......................................................................
The wise never marry
and when they marry they become otherwise. ........................................................................
Success is a relative term.
It brings so many relatives.
.......................................................................
Never put off the work till tomorrow
what you can put off today.

DID YOU KNOW......
Here is something that is very interesting, educational, historical, completely true and hysterical - all at the same time.....
The US standard railroad gauge (width between the tworails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches. That's an exceedinglyodd number.
Why was that gauge used?
Because that's the way they built them in England, and the US railroads were built by English expatriates.
Why did the English build them like that? Because the first rail lines were built by the same people who built the pre-railroad tramways, and that's the gauge they used.
Why did _they_ use that gauge then? Because the people who built the tramways used the same jigs and tools that they used for building wagons which used that wheel spacing.
Okay! Why did the wagons have that particular odd wheelspacing? Well, if they tried to use any other spacing,the wagon wheels would break on some of the old, long distance roads in England, because that's the spacingof the wheel ruts.
So who built those old rutted roads? The first long distance roads in Europe (and England) were built by Imperial Rome for their legions. The roads have been used ever since. And the ruts in the roads? Roman war chariots first formed the initial ruts, which every one else had to match for fear of destroying their wagon wheels. Since the chariots were made for (or by) Imperial Rome, they were all alike in the matter of wheel spacing.The United States standard railroad gauge of 4 feet, 8.5inches derives from the original specification for an Imperial Roman war chariot. Specifications and bureaucracies live forever.
So the next time you are handed a specification and wonder what horse's ass came up with it, you may be exactly right, because theImperial Roman war chariots were made just wide enough to accommodate the back ends of two war horses. Thus, we have the answer to the original question.
Now the twist to the story...
There's an interesting extension to the story about railroad gauges and horses' behinds. When we see a SpaceShuttle sitting on its launch pad, there are two big booster rockets attached to the sides of the main fuel tank. These are solid rocket boosters, or SRBs. The SRBsare made by Thiokol at their factory in Utah. The Engineers who designed the SRBs might have preferred to make them a bit fatter, but the SRBs had to be shipped by train from the factory to the launch site. The railroad line from the factory had to run through a tunnel in the mountains. The SRBs had to fit through that tunnel. The tunnel is slightly wider than the railroad track, and the railroad track is about as wide as two horses' behinds. So, the major design feature of what is arguably the world's most advanced transportation system was determined over two thousand years ago by the width of a Horse's back!

Chinese (ZEN) Fables
* The Frogs
A farmer came into town and asked the owner of a restaurant if he coulduse a million frog legs. The restaurant owner was shocked and asked theman where he could get so many frog legs! The farmer replied, "There isa pond near my house that is full of frogs --millions of them. They allcroak all night long and they are about to make me crazy!"
So the restaurant owner and the farmer made an agreement that the farmerwould deliver frogs to the restaurant, five hundred at a time for thenext several weeks.
The first week, the farmer returned to the restaurantlooking rather sheepish, with two scrawny little frogs. the restaurantowner said, "Well ... where are all the frogs?" The farmer said, "I wasmistaken.There were only these two frogs in the pond. But they sure were making a lot of noise!"
Next time you hear somebody criticizing or making fun of you, remember,it's probably just a couple of noisy frogs. Also remember that problemsalways seem bigger in the dark. Have you ever laid in your bed at nightworrying about things which seem almost overwhelming like a millionfrogs croaking?Chances are pretty good that when the morning comes, and you take acloser look, you'll wonder what all the fuss was about.
=======
* The Turtles
A turtle family decided to go on a picnic. Turtles, being naturally slowabout things, took seven years to prepare for their picnic outing.Finally the turtle family left home looking for a suitable place for their outing.
During the second year of their journey they found a place ideal forthem at last! For about six months they cleaned up the area, unpacked thepicnic basket, and completed the arrangements. Then they discoveredthey had forgotten the salt.
A picnic without salt would be a disaster, they all agreed. After alengthy discussion, the youngest turtle was chosen to retrieve the salt from home.Although he was the fastest of the slow moving turtles, the little turtlewhined, cried, and wobbled in his shell. He agreed to go on onecondition: that no one would eat until he returned. The family consentedand the little turtle left.
Three years passed and the little turtle had notreturned. Five years ...six years... then on the seventh year of hisabsence, the oldest turtle could no longer contain his hunger. He announced thathe was going to and begun to unwrap a sandwich.
At that point the little turtle suddenly popped out from behind a treeshouting, "SEE! I knew you wouldn't wait. Now I am not going to go get the salt."
Some of us waste our time waiting for people to liveup to our expectations. We are so concerned about what othersare doing that we don't do anything ourselves.
======
* The Pretty Lady
Once upon a time a big monk and a little monk weretravelling together. They came to the bank of a river and found theridge was damaged. They had to wade across the river. There was a pretty ladywho was stuck at the damaged bridge and couldn't cross the river. Thebig monk offered to carry the pretty lady across the river on his back.
The lady accepted. The little monk was shocked by the move of the big monk."How can big disciple brother carry a lady when we are supposed toavoid all intimacy with females," thought the little monk. But he keptquiet.
The big monk carried the lady across the river and the small monkfollowed unhappily. When they crossed the river, the big monklet the lady down and they parted ways with her. All along the way forseveral miles, the little monk was very unhappy with the act of the bigmonk. He was making up all kinds of accusations about the big monk inis head. This got him madder and madder. But he still kept quiet. And the bigmonk had no inclination to explain his situation.
Finally, at rest-point many hours later, the little monk could not standit any further, he burst out angrily at the big monk."How can you claimyourself a devout monk, when you seize the first opportunity to touch afemale, especially when she is very pretty. All your teachings to memake you a big hypocrite." The big monk looked surprised andsaid, "I had put down the pretty lady at the river bank many hours ago, how come you are still carrying her along?"
This very old Chinese zen story reflects the thinking of many people today.We encounter many unpleasant things in our life, theyirritate us and they make us angry. Sometimes, they cause us a lot ofhurt, sometimes they cause us to be bitter or jealous. But like the littlemonk, we are not willing to let them go away. We keep on carrying thebaggage of the "pretty lady" with us. We let them keep on coming backto hurt us, make us angry, make us bitter and cause us a lot of agony. WHY? Simply because we are not willing to put down or let go of the baggage of the"pretty lady". We should let go of the pretty lady immediately aftercrossing the river, immediately after the unpleasant event is over. Thiswill immediately remove all our agonies. There is no need to be further hurt by the unpleasant event after it is over. It'z just that simple.......

CAT......
A MAN hated his wife's cat and he decided to get rid of it.
He drove 20 blocks away from home and dropped the cat there.
But when he got home, the cat had found its way back.
The next day, he dropped the cat 40 blocks away but the same thing happened.
He kept increasing the number of blocks but the cat kept finding its way home before he did.
At last, he decided to drive a few miles away, turn right, then left, past the bridge, then right again and another right and so on until he reached what he thought was a perfect spot and dropped the cat there.
Hours later, the man called his wife at home and asked her: 'Jen, is the cat there?'
'Yes, why do you ask?' she asked.
Frustrated, the man said: 'Put that cat on the phone, I'm lost and I need directions.'
