History Blast from the Past : ISRO’s 20 Satellites in One Go through PSLV C34 Achievement >>>>>>>>>>>
SALUTE TO ISRO AND OUR GREAT SCIENTISTS
Sometimes rewind the moments related to country pride has quite satisfactory. In the post, I am recalling the ISRO’s historical moment of 2016 … 20 satellites in one go.
Isro scripted history on Wednesday by launching 20 satellites, including those from the US, Germany, Canada and Indonesia, from its Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Andhra Pradesh’s Sriharikota in one go.
The Indian Space Research Organisation used its flagship rocket Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) C34 — standing 44.4 metre tall and weighing 320 tonne — for the lift-off that was lauded by Prime Minister Narendra Modiji.
“Our space programme has time and again shown the transformative potential of science & technology in people’s lives,” he posted after the rocket tore into the morning skies at 9.26 am with a growl breaking free of the earth’s gravitational pull.
“Over the years we developed expertise & capability to help other nations in their space initiatives. This is the skill of our scientists.”
The 20 satellites weighed 1,288kg. The rocket’s main cargo is India’s 725.5kg Cartosat-2 series satellite for earth observation. This satellite is similar to the earlier Cartosat-2, 2A and 2B.
The other 19 satellites weighing around 560 kg are from the US, Canada, Germany and Indonesia as well as one satellite each from Chennai’s Sathyabama University and College of Engineering, Pune. The whole launch mission was over in around 26 minutes.
Isro chairperson AS Kiran Kumar congratulated his team on the successful launch ‘in record time’ and said “PSLV C-34 has done its job”.
“We have the current generation of earth observation satellite of Cartosat 2 series,” ISRO said, and added the space agency had done a “wonderful job”.

The images sent by Cartosat satellite will be useful for cartographic, urban, rural, coastal land use, water distribution and other applications.
The 110kg SkySat Gen2-1 belonging to Terra Bella, a Google company, is a small earth-imaging satellite capable of capturing sub-metre resolution imagery and high definition video, Isro said.
The Planet Labs Dove Satellites are also earth-imaging satellites. A total of 12 Dove satellites each weighing 4.7kg are carried in this mission inside three QuadPack dispensers, the space agency said.
The PSLV rocket also carriedf 85kg M3MSat from Canada. The technology-demonstration mission was jointly funded and managed by Defence Research and Development Canada and the Canadian Space Agency.
The other foreign satellites on board were: 120 kg LAPSN-A3 of Indonesia, the 130 kg BIROS, from German Aerospace Centre, and the 25.5 kg GHGSat-D, Canada.
The 1.5 kg Sathyabamasat from Sathyabama University will collect data on green house gases while the 1kg Swayam satellite from College of Engineering, Pune will provide point-to-point messaging services to the HAM radio community.
In 2008, the Isro had launched 10 satellites with the PSLV rocket. Till date India has launched 57 foreign satellites successfully.

STAY HOME & STAY SAFE
SUPERVISION OF MANAGEMENT
Supervision is an important aspect of the directing function and it involves the managerial task of observing the subordinates at work to ensure that they are working according to plans and policies of the organization, keeping the time schedule and supervision also includes helping subordinates to resolve their work problems. Managers at all level are in direct contact with subordinates and oversee their work performance and the top management supervises the work of middle-level managers, who in turn supervise the first-line managers or supervisors and the first-line managers are in direct contact with the operatives and thus, all levels of management are generally engaged in supervising the work of their immediate subordinates. According to R.C. Davis “Supervision is the function of assuring that the work is being done in accordance with the plan and instructions”. Supervision includes the following three elements:
- Commanding
- Guiding
- Controlling
This is the reason why, “Supervisors are known as a friend, philosopher, and Guide of workers”.
ROLE OF SUPERVISORS
Supervision has special importance only at the lower management level and the question which is now required to be discussed is to what role does a person working at the managerial level, the supervisor play in the organization.
1. Supervisor as a key man
In every organization, the work of putting the plans into action is done by non-managerial staff who works under the guidance of a supervisor but however, at this level, even a little carelessness may cause the closure of the organization and that is why the supervision is referred to as the key man in the organization.
2. Supervision as a middle man
In the organization, the supervisor plays the role of a middle man and he acts as a link between the higher-level managers and him workers, and his main job is to prepare a co-operative atmosphere among the two parties in order to facilitate the achievement of the goal of the organization.
3. Supervisor as a human relation specialist
A supervisor is likely to face a number of problems related to human behavior, for which one has to try and find out solutions and he can do so only if he is a human relation specialist.
FUNCTIONS OF SUPERVISOR
1. Planning the work or schedule activity
The supervisor is a low-level manager and he is required to study and analyze the work of his department and decide what, where, which, why, and by whom the work is to be performed. He has to chalk out daily and weekly program and he has also to arrange the raw materials, machines, tools, and equipment and the successful supervisor is an efficient planner.
2. Achieving the target
It is the most important duty of the supervisor to achieve the target prescribed for his department by the management and this can be achieved if the supervisor enables the best possible use of the available resources of the department towards the desired goal.
3. Enbaling standardized output through instruction and guidance
It is the supervisor, who ensures that the actual performance corresponds to the norms and standards laid by the management and the supervisor must satisfy himself as to the quality of the output and he should concentrate on both quality and quantity of goods.
How children are being portrayed in media?
Media is the mirror of a society. It portrays the existing condition of a society. Media like movies, advertisements and news stories emphasize the lifestyle of people living in a particular area. Not only does it portray, but media can even manipulate the audience as it creates huge impact on people. It can lead the people to think in a structured way. It is true that “media tell us what to think about”. Thus, representation of all things in the media has to be taken into great consideration. People are likely to believe whatever the media want them to. At times, it gives a completely different and fake representation of everything. Representation of children in media can be taken as an example. The media has convinced the world that children are supposed to behave in a particular way, neglecting the fact that it cannot be true always.
Today, every child has been exposed to media in many ways. Advertisements, Movies, Magazines, Social media platforms etc. have been opened to anyone irrespective of their age. Children are now free to engage in the media world just like the adults. So, it can be said that media not only influence or affects adults but children also. It creates a huge impact in molding a child’s attitude as children can see how they have been represented in the media. It has been noticed that media is a powerful tool in creating and manipulating perceptions of audience towards anything that they represent. So, it is very much important to portray them in the right path.
Since, children belong to an inferior and minor community in the media world, they have been exploited in many ways. They are represented in more a negative way. It is a true fact that children are being under represented in the media more than being portrayed positively. This negative tendency can be seen everywhere in the world irrespective of the cultural diversity. They have always been represented as inferiors or dependents. Children are always given the tag of ‘cuteness’. The whole purpose of being present in an ad or movie is to just to remain cute. Media under estimate the capabilities of children by considering them as a cute creature. Most of the advertisements and movies portray this type of stereotype, where children remain cute and inactive. They are always guided and controlled by elders. It gives a false assumption about kids to the society that children can’t do anything on their own.
It is hard to believe that, this negative portrayal are done on the basis of gender also. The representation of child in terms of gender is quite stereotypical. The portrayal of girl and boy child are very much different in the media. Boys are always presented as active, noisy and even wild whereas in the advertisements that features girl child, girls are quieter, their actions are slow paced and general atmosphere will be softer. The girls are more likely to present in stories about child abuse, ads about beauty products and household activities. On the other hand, boy child is being appeared in ads related to automobiles and sports. Ads are less likely to focus girls who are active in sports. Girl children are mostly associated to craft related items and boys are associated to games and sports. The representation of children influences the children themselves and their attitudes and views on their own roles in the society. It also creates a huge impact on adults and their opinions about the children. So, it is extremely important to represent the children in the right way.

Deep Down You Know When It’s Time to Let Go
“Holding on is believing that there’s only a past; letting go is knowing that there’s a future.” ~Daphne Rose Kingma
One of the most challenging things in life is knowing when to let go—when to let go of a job, a relationship, a belief, a repeating thought, a situation… fill in the blank.
Most of us have defaulted to safety, which often means procrastinating and generally feeling stuck. While there’s nothing wrong with safety—it is, after all, one of our basic needs—we must learn to discern what is truly safe and what is safe for the sake of comfort and conformity, the latter of which ultimately leaves us feeling depleted.
“Safe” is a subjective term. What feels safe to you may not feel safe to me. For most of us, the unknown feels unsafe, yet as you may have heard, the magic happens when we surrender to the unknown. Chances are, if we are seeking more, longing for more, yet feel paralyzed to move because we feel “safe,” we are probably stuck.
I recently experienced one of the most challenging transitions of my life when I let go of a long-term relationship. It didn’t happen overnight. It all began with a nudge and a deep knowing that I felt stuck, yet all the outer signs evidenced a “good” relationship, and my mind wouldn’t let go of the idea that there was nothing “wrong” with it.
By societal standards, I shouldn’t have been complaining or contemplating, but I believe we all really want one thing: to thrive and experience change when it’s necessary for our evolution and joy.
Resistance and fear will try to tell us a whole lot of stories about why we should be grateful and stay put, but if there is an inkling, a nudge, a quiet inner voice that keeps nagging and telling us it’s time to go, then it’s time to release and move on. Even though letting go may not immediately make any logical sense, listening to that voice can bring new, fulfilling experiences.
This phase in my life has taught me that life is all about flow and movement, and that living, truly living, means that we are constantly changing and evolving. Living means being called to practice detachment to make room for new energy.
I also learned that when we don’t listen to that inner voice that says it’s time to let go, and sometimes screams it loud from our heart and gut, life will conspire to make us move, whether we want to or not.
If we wait long enough and dismiss our deep truth, life will make sure that truth comes out one way or another. Events and circumstances will happen that will cause us to move, and sometimes cause us to move at a rate that we did not expect or plan.
The biggest lesson for me was, do not wait for life to force you; check in daily and connect to the deep truth that overrides logic and analysis and simply nudges you along.
This isn’t easy when the voice of fear is loud and untamed.
Letting go is part of the human experience, but there are ways to minimize the impact of transition if we are mindful. Here are some actions I took and lessons and insights I learned during this transition that helped me embrace letting go. These can apply to any situation that requires letting go.
I took inventory of all the gifts from my relationship and sat in gratitude.
I reflected on how I could have shown up differently and more authentically.
I took responsibility for what I had contributed to the situation.
I promised myself that I would never betray my inner voice.
I embraced alone time often.
I constantly asked myself, “What do I need in this moment?”
I allowed myself to mourn and grieve whenever those feelings arose.
I allowed myself to have hard days and was extra gentle with myself during those moments.
I asked myself what part of me needed to heal so that I could hear my inner voice and override the fear-based thoughts that keep me stuck.
I indulged in a self-care routine and opted for activities that felt nourishing.
I kept a daily promise to myself, no matter how small it was.
I surrounded myself with people I love and with whom I feel safe.
I traveled and welcomed the energy of newness and curiosity,
I hugged myself a lot—it is so nourishing!
I got comfortable with patience and surrender—two great lessons that I needed to learn.
I embraced the unknown.
I learned that you can love that job, that person, that circumstance, and still feel a deep urge to move on.
We are all worthy of feeling fulfilled and nourished; that is the point of life
Sometimes, we just grow apart from that person, thing, or circumstance. It’s that simple, don’t fight it.
It is never about blame or shame; it is always about experience and experiencing life right where you are and where you are nudged to go.
It’s okay to say goodbye and still feel love and gratitude.
Nothing is ever wasted. Every experience has a meaning in your life.
Everything has a season—sometimes the season lasts a minute, sometimes it lasts years, but eventually there is a new season on the horizon.
Here is the thing, if we don’t listen to the voice that is asking us to let go, then we will never know what beautiful blessings await us on the other side—in the unknown. Our minds cannot possibly conceive what lies ahead.
I had to make room for new love and new energy, two elements I longed for daily. I had no idea what my life would look like, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that with newness comes great curiosity and joy.
If resentment, wonder, curiosity, longing, stuckness, and boredom seem to keep circling in your mind, it’s time to take inventory and ask yourself a very hard question: Is it time to let go?
Even if you don’t feel any “negative” feelings but feel a nudge, a knowing pushing you forward, listen and listen with your heart.
Negotiating- The Art, a small story!!!
I think there is an art to it it’s a craft, the negotiating training this morning in the office and the reason, negotiating it be is because it’s the one area of the deal where people need me the most and they need me the most they think I have the most confidence and the confidence that I have going to the deal comes from experience and it comes from honestly – practice practice practice because no matter what you’re selling you’re selling. Two different people you’ve got a seller and a buyer and in every negotiation you’ve got price you’ve got pressure and you’ve got persistence those are the three P’s remember that is it can be a nice little instructional.
An iPhone cost to make now you’re not going to negotiate the price of an iPhone because there’s too strong demand but let’s say there wasn’t strong demand then you can negotiate or you can find a retailer who’s going to sell it to you for cheaper because it doesn’t cost nearly as much to make that phone. As it does for you to buy it real estate is the same way a deal that’s listed from 10 8 down to 10 so 10 million bucks the offer originally came in at 8 million dollars okay that seems like it’s way too far apart. If I go to the seller he’s going to say you got to come up they’re going to say oh no this is my offer so what do you do what do you do you remember the price you want to try to get – which in this instance was around 8 and a half that’s where we thought we’d get a deal done and the legacy price what the seller paid seller paid six point five. So, even at our low terrible awful offer that sellers making money that’s a good thing to remember and to consistently remind each side and then you let time saturate the emotions of the deal and you use repetition you only paid six five even if this bullshit offer you’re making money.
There are clients who are losing million and they use pressure right the fear of a falling market and the fear of missing out every seller fears they’re not going to get their price going forward because maybe the market could change every buyer has a little fear that they’re going to lose it a little fear they’re going to miss out and then you’re trying to find the price in the middle where both sides will say we came to that number because that’s the max or the minimum that I’m willing to go to get this deal done.

IMPORTANCE OF DIRECTION IN BUSINESS WORLD
Directing is a very important function of management and its subordinates may not perceive the organizational goals in the absence of directing and the subordinates must be communicated what the organizational goals are, what the employees should do to achieve them, how they should do their jobs etc. Moreover, directing is directly concerned with human beings, so it should be executed carefully to achieve the desired goals. The part played by the manager is rather important as the CEO of the company from the point of managing the workers and the management and Getting things down is in the very nature of Directing.
THE IMPORTANCE
1. The benefit of unity of command
Due to scientific supervision, effective communication, and proper motivation, there is no problem with conflicting orders or priorities and because of a complete reporting relationship with a single superior, personal responsibility for results becomes greater. Directing involves the management of human behavior and it creates cooperation and harmony among the members of a group and increasing people’s awareness has made managing human beings very difficult.
2. Increases potential
For reasons of physical nature’s productivity of managerial resources is limited, but the productivity and effectiveness of human resources have unlimited potential, and directing helps the enterprise in making use of this potential output of the human resources. Since humans evolve as the time goes by and stating together is an important aspect of keeping going together so everyone needs to understand the aspirations and expectations of their subordinates or their colleagues in order to manage them effectively.
3. Initiates action
All organizational activities are initiated through directing and along with planning, organizing, and staffing, managers must stimulate action by issuing instructions to subordinates and by supervising their work and the aim of directing is to activate employees to work towards the realization of predetermined goals of the organization and thus, without directing, other managerial activities like planning, organizing and staffing remain ineffective.
4.Optimization of individual efforts
The ultimate success of an enterprise depends on the optimum efforts put in by all individuals with willing cooperation and through effective supervision, motivation, leadership, and communication directing makes it possible.
5.Means of motivation
The organizational objectives cannot be realized unless people working in an organization are motivated to work willingly and perform well to the best of their abilities and directing is motivating employees to contribute their maximum efforts towards the achievement of organizational goals.
6.Provision of a stable and balanced organization
Directing provides effective supervision, motivation, correct leadership, and a well-understood communications, and therefore the organization as a whole work in a balanced way and it lasts for a long time.
7. Integrates employees efforts
At all levels of management, there are subordinates under the managers and the work entrusted to these individuals is interrelated and the performance of each individual affects the performance of others and thus individual efforts need to be integrated so that the organization achieves its goals and the directing functions integrate the activities of the subordinates by supervision, guidance, and counseling.
The Upcoming Silent Pandemic – Obesity
In Medical Science and Researches the term \’obesity\’ is none other than the silent pandemic . This is not just a statement rather we can call it a warning given by doctors, technically it means much more than to make common people (especially non-medicos) aware of the consequences that what would happen if they once get uncontrollably obesed.
As we already know how our generation has become busy in coping up with the hectic schedule that affects our daily lifestyle thus most of us are habitual in consuming packed foods to save time from cooking stuffs, preferably regular fast foods for snacks time. And why specifically the fast food comes when we talk about obesity because for the business purposes the sellers wouldn\’t give us light and good quality oils, moreover after knowing these all we still crave for the same and thus nowadays we can see every other family has one or even more members suffering with this serious condition of obesity. Therefore doctors refer it as the upcoming silent pandemic which further lead to various incurable diseases.
Its cool if we are consuming the tasty oily street side foods once or twice in a month but besides that even if we eat then must do such exercises and proper workouts in order to avoid deposition of fats & cholesterol. Usually the good quality refined (unsaturated) oils like – Olive,sunflower, ricebran, soybean are preferred, as these oils contains less amount of Trans fat over Vanaspati or dalda. This saturated fat contained stuffs like desi ghee more in Vanaspati leads the bad cholesterol or low -density lipoprotein (LPL) level to raise in our body by lowering the high-density lipoprotein (HPL) or good cholesterol. Therefore main causes of becoming overweight or obesed are-
Unhealthy eating behavior which further leads to imbalance in energy i.e. the amount of energy we take in is not equal to the amount of energy out from our body through physical exercise, high amount of stress and sleepless nights. Sometimes even genetics and family history becomes a reason for the condition of being overweight.
Now we will discuss about the measurement of Obesity. Medical practitioners measure the waist circumference and BMI to screen & diagonise obesity and overweight. According to the classification of World Health Organization (WHO), the person is obesed or not, can only be determined with the help of BMI.
If the Body Mass Index (BMI) is less than 18.5 (irrespective of any gender) then the individual is said to be malnourished. Now the point is many of us are unaware about the fact how it is calculated. So the formula to measure the same is quite easy.
 |
Basically Obesity is a medical condition which occurs due to the increase in the amount and size of fat cells (or excessive accumulation of fat deposit ) in one\’s body .
It is regarded as the major risk factor for ample of diseases like diabetes, metabolic syndrome, high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, sleep apnea, coronary heart disease, arthritis, lungs and liver diseases, even risks to several types of cancer. Further in its extreme condition when the patient with obesity do not able to respond to any medicines or on the recommendation of a specific diet chart then the doctor may even do various surgeries (e.g. Gastric bypass surgery, Gastric banding, Gastrectomy ) .
Some Symptoms like excess Snoring, depression, back & joint pains, breathing disorders such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and sleep apnea indicates the condition of being obesed.
So in order to maintain a healthy weight we have to consume the balanced diet with regular practice of yoga and workouts along with positive stress free environment.
Let this already deaclared epidemic of Obesity by WHO to be under control from further becoming a silent pandemic in future days nd thus make sure that the people must value their health first with a proper consciousness in between their busy schedule to live a strong & healthy disease free lifestyle.
