Creative Things to do When You Feel Lonely

According to a study of more than 170,000 people published at the Psychology Bulletin in 2013, the average adult’s network of friends have reduced in the past decades. It’s no wonder many people feel lonelier than ever.

Feeling lonely, however, is not a direct cause of being alone. It’s possible to feel lonely in a crowd.

Loneliness, in fact, is more dangerous than isolation because it increases a person’s mortality rate.

If it’s so dangerous, how do we fight loneliness then?

The part “your heart out” basically means with vigorous or intense conviction. This is the basic intent of the sentence — that it’s okay to do that something as long as the person is doing it with great conviction or considerable effort.

To sing your out more literally means to sing with great conviction or great gusto and sincerity. Of course, it doesn’t mean to sing loudly at the top of your voice, which then isn’t necessarily a positive thing. To sing care-free like there is nobody else in this world except you.

Drug Addiction

Drug addiction is one the most serious problems in the country. The use of intoxicants is old practice. People in every part of the world have been using intoxicants in one or other form. In olden times, this practice was mostly adopted but nowadays people make this trend within parties and clubbing. And as time passed life became MORE complex and complicated and use of intoxicants went on increasing. With the progress of science, new types of intoxicants were introduced in the market and in today’s time you can find a large variety of intoxicants drinks and various other intoxicants are readily available in the market. Use of intoxicants and drugs has become so common that it has been a worldwide problem. All rich or poor are so much indulged in this practice that they even forget about their health and life. The poor people have some different problems like problems of food, clothing, and housing etc.and due to this they start indulging into various intoxicants. On the other hand, rich ones have made this trend look super cool by taking these intoxicants drugs and drinks in their parties. The situation is quite alarming. A survey was recently conducted in some universities in India to check and findings were staggering. Drug addiction is catching hold of young boys and girls in big cities especially like Mumbai, pune, Delhi and universities and colleges of the country. Hostels of boys and girls are becoming homes of these drug addicts.

Basically, the use of drugs has come from west of India. Most of the students start taking drugs as a matter of fashion or for thrill but later they cannot stop their use. The market is flooded with different types of intoxicants. Most of these are taken to produce sedation or under strict medical observation and care. But young boys and girls start taking them without medical advice. Most of these who start taking drugs are unemployed youth or frustrated with some other complications in life or social or family problems.

It is the duty of the government to make study of various pros and cons of the problem. Sale of drugs which are open in the market should be banned. The problem of unemployment should be tackled sincerely and taken on priority basis. Some sort of guidance and counseling should be held in universities only to provide advice to the frustrated youth of the country. Various social and voluntary organizations should take steps to maintain this nuisance. The government should use all advertising media to educate people about harmful effects of intoxicating drugs. Medical aid should be provided to those who are badly suffering from this problem. Moral education should be introduced in schools and colleges. All foreigners who visit India and encourage the use of drugs should be put behind the bars.

All these steps can help the country from menace of this drug addiction. In India, this disease is still in a state of infancy but if proper precautions may not be taken then it may take the form of epidemic. We must see the writing on the wall and net before it is too late.

How Covid-19 is affecting work culture ?

As countries begin loosening restrictions and easing lockdowns, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) released guidelines to allow private offices in India to operate at 100 per cent capacity, but urged people to work from home as much as possible.

Not just India, several countries have released norms for employees. In New Zealand, for instance, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has said that those businesses in the “position to do so” should consider a four-day workweek in order to boost domestic tourism.

In South Korea, on the other hand, the government has encouraged that workshops and trainings be conducted online, asked colleagues to sit two metres apart, urged people to regularly disinfect places that hands often touch and refrain from shaking hands. Further, employers are encouraged to minimise international and domestic business trips and use video conferencing and phone calls as much as possible.

New Zealand and South Korea are two countries that have been able to contain the spread of the virus. Their guidelines for workers could hold lessons for other countries

Some private companies too have initiated steps to change their work culture in order to adapt to the pandemic. Tech giant Twitter, for example, was among the first global companies to allow employees to work from home. In a blog post published on May 12, Jennifer Christie, the leader of the People Team at Twitter, said “with very few exceptions”, offices would not open before September and there would be no in-person company events till the end of 2020. Later, CEO Jack Dorsey said he would allow employees the option to permanently work from home.ADVERTISEMENT

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg Thursday said in a live-streamed staff meeting that the company would allow many employees to work from home permanently. He said that as many as 45,000 Facebook employees could be working from home within the next decade.

Microsoft has allowed employees to work from home till October, while Google has said the option was open until the end of this year.

How Covid-19 may change work culture

Due to Covid-19, it is likely that people would want to change their work environments, even after the pandemic. A Gallup poll found that three in five (59 per cent) US workers, who have been working from home during the pandemic, said they would prefer to continue even after restrictions are lifted. Over 41 per cent, meanwhile, said they would prefer to return to their workplace. At the time of this survey, 62 per cent of employed Americans said they worked from home during the pandemic.

Further, Covid-19 might also change the notion that creative work demands corporate campuses built by companies such as Facebook and Google, complete with free food, open office plans and ping pong tables, a report in the Associated Press said.

A shift in remote work could also lead to the movement of workers from big cities where the cost of living is higher. Significantly, if workers are given the option to work from anywhere, it may also affect their pay. If remote work becomes the norm, salaries may be pegged to cost of living, which may bring down salaries for employees who shift locations to smaller cities with lower costs of living

Martial rape- Still not criminalized

The definition of rape is codified in section 375 of Indian Penal Code that includes all form of sexual assault involving nonconsensual intercourse with woman. However, exception 2 to section 375 states that sexual intercourse by a man with his wife not under age of 15 is not rape, whether it was done with or without her consent. This also means that section 375 does not apply to married women. This is called marital rape where a man can use her force to rape and it is not criminalized. India is one of the thirty six countries that still have not criminalized marital rape.

Violation of article 14 of Indian constitution

Article 14 ensures that the state shall not deny to any person equality before law or equal protection of law within the territory of India. Our constitution guarantees this right but Indian criminal law discriminates against female victims who have been raped by their husbands. At the time when IPC was drafted in 1860 a married woman was considered to be the chattel of her husband but with change in time women are becoming smarter than men and they do deserve equal opportunities as men have. Exception 2 of article 375 directly implies to rape and that is too accepted by our law which is disgusting.

Violation of article 21

Exception 2 is also a violation of article 21 of the Indian constitution. Article 21 states that no personal shall be deprived of his personal life and liberty according to procedure established by law. Forced sexual cohabitation is violation of fundamental rights. Our society is stuck between old customs and narrow mindset. They believe that giving more liberty to women is against Indian culture which is not right. This society believes that once a woman is married then her implied consent for sexual intercourse is always present.

The above conclusions clearly depict that expection2 of section 375 of IPC is an infringement of articles 14 and 21 of the constitution.

Whether Martial Rape constitutionally valid or not?India is one of 36 countries that still not criminalized marital rape and this exception 2 where woman is brutally raped by her husband whether her consent is there or not proves the inconvience in delivering justice by Indian law. This expectation proves to be very harsh for married women as she also has the right to equality like men. But the Supreme Court issued a landmark judgment in Independent Thought vs. Union of India 2017 which narrows the scope of marital rape. In the judgment it was stated to retain the age of 15 years under exception2 of section 375 and 46%of women between the ages of 18-29 years were married before the age of 18. Hence, criminalizing this concept would not be appropriate and practical. Thus, the age prescribed in exception 2 has been retained considering the facts and issue.

Does salary justify your input to the job.?

We all work hard our sweat and blood off to earn money. Money matters most to the people.Money is the thing we work at the first place. It is the salary that matters most to the employees but do our salary is justified by value of input we provide.?

Lets understand what is salary first, ‘Salary is a form of payment from an employer to an employee, which may be specified in an employment contract.’ It is contrasted with piece wages, where each job, hour, or other unit is paid separately, rather than on a periodic basis. From the point of view of running a business, salary can also be viewed as the cost of acquiring and retaining human resources for running operations, and is then termed personnel expense or salary expense. In accounting, salaries are recorded on payroll accounts.

Salary is a fixed amount of money or compensation paid to an employee by an employer in return for work performed. Salary is commonly paid in fixed intervals, for example, monthly payments of one-twelfth of the annual salary.

Salary is typically determined by comparing market pay rates for people performing similar work in similar industries in the same region. Salary is also determined by leveling the pay rates and salary ranges established by an individual employer. Salary is also affected by the number of people available to perform the specific job in the employer’s employment locale.

Now lets understand how can we justify our salary and our job by adding more value

Dodging the layoff bullet has never been easy. For anyone wondering what you can do to make yourself irreplaceable in your organization, check out this Artner’s Law column on ways to add value to your job.
Let’s talk about job security. There isn’t any. The technology boom is long over, and most of us have had to endure one or more rounds of layoffs at our companies. In fact, not a few of us have been laid off and have had to start over somewhere else. It’s not clear that things will get better anytime soon.

Wow, what a depressing lead paragraph. In fact, what I have to say isn’t really grim—in fact, it’s good, possibly uplifting advice. In this column, I want to talk about how you can make yourself less vulnerable to being downsized or passed over. I’m going to talk about the concept of “adding value,” and how it increases your worth in the eyes of your boss—and your boss’s boss.

The science of adding value
Being a favorite of motivational speakers and business writers, the concept of “adding value” is well on its way to the graveyard of overhyped phrases. It also suffers from multiple, contradictory meanings.

Here is what I mean when I talk about adding value: performing your duties in such a way that you are perceived by your superiors to offer an advantage to the organization over the “typical” manager in your job.

That’s kind of wordy, so to clarify consider this example. Suppose you’re running the Microsoft Exchange infrastructure for a Fortune 500 company. You manage a group of 10 administrators, spread out in six locations and three countries. How do you add value in that situation? Not by just doing your job well—presumably, that’s basic performance.

You add value by giving your employers something extra, something tangible (if sometimes hard to define) that makes your boss think your salary is money particularly well spent.

There are many ways you can “add value” to your employer. None of them is relevant for every situation, and some aren’t a good match for every IT manager, but they are all worth considering. Here are some of the more common:

Working your butt off: Most of us have been here before. Eager to prove ourselves, particularly in a new job, we vow that no one is going to outwork us. This technique is commonly used because it’s effective. After all, if you had to lay off one of two employees, who would you be more likely to keep (everything else being equal): the one who’s willing to stay late to fix a problem, or the one who’s fixated on the clock, counting down the minutes until it’s time to leave? On the other hand, you need to make sure that your supervisor doesn’t end up assuming you’ll always put in all those hours, and routinely overburden you, serene in the knowledge that you’ll put up with it. There is a difference between being accommodating and being a doormat.
Institutional knowledge: If you’re like most managers, the longer you do a job, the better you get at it. More importantly, that experience allows you to build up a store of institutional knowledge—the undocumented ins and outs of a job that make you more effective than someone just thrown in that same job. This kind of knowledge can be even more useful if your supervisor is relatively new to the organization; it can give you the opportunity to educate your boss on potential pitfalls to proposed projects. The downside of institutional knowledge is that for it to be useful, you have to share it with others. Too many technical managers try to hoard their information like a miser hoards his gold. (Here is a column that addresses the topic at greater length.)

Working cheap: If the going rate for a position is x, and you’re willing to work for 90 percent of x, aren’t you adding value? Well, yes and no. It’s certainly true that working for below-market rates will allow your company some budget freedom, and in these tough times, that’s something. On the other hand, there are several problems with this approach. First, the cost-cutting logic implied in this equation never ends. What if you’re up against a job candidate who’s willing to work for 80 percent of x? What about overseas outsourcing—are you ready to compete on price with Bangalore’s best and brightest? I don’t think so. Second, while IT executives enjoy saving money when possible, they are also rightly suspicious of something that looks too good to be true. Price yourself too low against the market, and companies are bound to start asking why. Finally, consider your own attitude. Wouldn’t you end up resenting a company that paid you considerably below market wages for your job, even if you agreed to it when you were hired?
Knowing what not to do: Sometimes you can add value by knowing when you can’t add value. This allows you to concentrate on tasks that play to your strengths. For example, here at TechRepublic, we create books and CD-ROMs for IT professionals. However, we didn’t buy a printing press or a CD duplicator. Why not? Because we can’t really add value by doing our own printing or duplicating. Instead, we contract out with a printing company, and spend our time trying to create the best possible content—that’s how we add value.
Inspired leadership: IT managers are leaders. Leadership isn’t just the ability to keep a project on time, or under budget. Those skills are essential but not sufficient. One way to stand out from your peers is to develop and showcase your ability to inspire people to follow you—not because they have to, but because they trust you and believe what you tell them. This is different from simply getting your team to like you. While always nice, that’s not what I’m talking about here. Inspired leadership is the ability to motivate a team or group to perform feats they didn’t believe were possible. If you can do that, you’ve proven your worth to just about any employer.
Creative ideas: When I was a kid, one of my coaches’ favorite sayings was “You can’t teach quick.” The jury is still out on whether or not you can teach a manager to think creatively. (I’m skeptical, but that’s another story.) Perhaps someday you’ll be able to learn how to think creatively in the same way you can learn how to migrate to Active Directory. Unless and until that happy day comes, however, creative thinkers will always be at a premium. If you’ve got the gift of conceiving new solutions for tough problems, then make sure your boss knows about it.

That’s not an exhaustive list of ways you can add value, by any means. Further, as I said earlier, none of us have all these gifts, nor are all of them appropriate for every job. Perform a skills assessment on yourself, and find out which of these plays to your strengths. Then continue to develop these “value-adding” skills, and make sure your supervisor knows about your efforts. After all, there’s no point in “adding value” if no one knows about it.

Janmashtami

The Hindus celebrate Janmashtami for the birth of Sri Krishna. The festival usually occurs in August. Moreover, the Hindus celebrate this festival in the Ashtami of Krishna Paksha. Moreover, Lord Krishna is the most powerful incarnation of Lord Vishnu. It is a joyful festival for the Hindus. Furthermore, the Hindus perform different rituals to please Lord Krishna. This is one of the most joyous celebrations for the Hindus

Lord Krishna

Lord Krishna was born on the 8th day of Dark Fortnight in the month of Bhadon. Bhadon is a month in the Hindu calendar. Moreover, he was born around 5,200 years ago approximately. Because he was one of the most powerful Gods. He was born for a special purpose on Earth. Lord Krishna was born to free the world from evil. As a result, he played an important role in the book of Mahabharata. Also, Lord Krishna preached about good karma and the theory of Bhakti. Lord Krishna was born in a prison. He was in the clutches if Kansa. But his father Vasudev gave him to his friend Nand to save him. Because he knew that Kansa was evil-minded. Furthermore after getting saved the upbringing of Sri Krishna was in a Gokul family. Sri Krishna after some time became strong. As a result, he was able to kill Kansa.

When I was a child I used to watch many shows on Sri Krishna. As a result, I know many things about him. First of all, Sri Krishna was very fond of eating Makhan. Because of that he always used to steal it from his mothers’ kitchen. Therefore his name was ‘Natkahat Nand Lal’. Sri Krishna was dark-colored. So he was always worried about his color. Moreover, Sri Krishna had a friend named Radha. Radha was of great importance to Krishna. So he always spent time with her. Radha was very beautiful and fair so Lord Krishna always feels color complex.

How is Janmashtami Celebrated?

People celebrate Janmashtami in mid-night. Because Lord Krishna was born in the dark. Moreover, people have a special way of celebrating the festival. Since Sri Krishna was fond of eating Makhan people play this sport. The sport is, they tie an earthen pot(matki). The judge of the game ties the matki really high from the ground. Furthermore, a person fills Makhan in the matki. Also, what people do is they build a human pyramid to break the matki. Since the matki is too high they have to build a tall pyramid. As a result, many people have to take part in sport. Moreover, there are other teams too who stop them from breaking the matki. Equal chances are there for both the teams. Each team gets a chance for a particular time period. If the team is not able to do it in time then the other team tries it. This is an interesting sport many people gather to watch this sport. Furthermore, the celebration is also done in houses. People decorate their houses from outside with lights. Moreover, the temples are full of people. They perform various rituals inside the temple. As a result, we hear the sound of bells and mantras the whole day.

Moreover, people perform a dance on different religious songs. Finally, it is one of the most enjoyable festivals in the Hindu religion.

obesity and social life

Obesity is a major health challenge worldwide. Apart from known health hazards such as heart disease and diabetes, it can also prevent sexual intimacy and may ruin your social life, experts say. India is home to the third-highest number of obese and overweight people, according to recent reports.

Obesity is categorised on the basis of BMI, which is defined as the body mass divided by the square of the body height and is universally expressed in units of kg/m2, resulting from mass in kilograms and height in metres.

obesity affects every aspects of people’s lives from health to relationship.

Further, apart from the physical intimacy, obesity may also affect the social life, as overweight or obese people are more prone to being bullied, humiliated or ostracised. They are also more likely to engage in bullying behaviour.

The fear of bullying may also lead them to exercise less and stay indoors.

Obesity creates a negative self-image. An individual feels demotivated and there’s lack of self-confidence. Such people are unable to accept their weight and their size can leave them sleeping single in a double bed,” Deep Goel, Director (Department of Bariatrics) and Gastrointestinal Onco Surgeon, BLK Super Speciality Hospital, told IANS.

Human beings are social animals, and the tenor of someone’s social life is one of the most important influences on their mental and physical health. Without positive, durable relationships, both minds and bodies can fall apart.

“When it comes to social media, there are just times I turn off the world, you know. There are just sometimes you have to give yourself space to be quiet, which means you’ve got to set those phones down.”

As humans, social interaction is essential to every aspect of our health. Research shows that having a strong network of support or strong community bonds fosters both emotional and physical health and is an important component of adult life. Over the years, there have been a number of studies showcasing the relationship between social support and the quality of physical and psychological health.

how obesity affects your life and social life

Obesity is a social issue. An overweight person may worry about what others think. When people judge you unfairly, it can make you feel like it’s your fault. Well-meaning parents, siblings, or friends can sometimes make things worse by making “suggestions” about food or exercise. These good intentions may come across as criticism. Some teens that are overweight are teased or bullied.

Teasing and bullying can make you feel sad or embarrassed. Fear of being judged or rejected might make you shy away from people. You may stop doing things you enjoy. But the best thing to do is to take your mind — and other people’s — off your weight and back onto you as a person. The most common way to determine if a person is overweight or obese is to calculate body mass index (BMI). BMI is an estimate of body fat based on comparing a person’s weight to his or her height.

So it clearly shows that weight discrimination is a part of the obesity problem and not the solution. So, everyone, including doctors, should stop blaming and shaming people for their weight and offer support, and where appropriate, treatment because when confidence fades and self-esteem takes a beating, it’s harder to stick with a weight loss program.

Discriminating against slim, overweight or obese, people does not help them to lose weight. In fact, the embarrassment, humiliation and stress they feel from such discrimination are likely to cause them to gain weight not to lose weight.

Previous research has shown that people who are stigmatized for being overweight are more likely to engage in behaviour that promote obesity, including problematic eating, avoidance of physical activity and a refusal to restrict their food intake.

conclusion

Obesity can lead to sudden death, heart attack, diabetes and may unwanted illnesses. Stop it by making healthy choices.

serious measures are to be taken to fight against this dreadful phenomenon that is spreading its wings far and wide. Giving proper education on benefits of staying fit and mindful eating is as important as curbing this issue. Utmost importance must be given to healthy eating habits right from the small age so that they follow the same until the end of their life.

Black Racer Snake

Black Racers are very fast-moving, non-venomous, black snakes with a bluish cast to their scales. Other local common names for this handsome snake are Black Runner, Blue Racer, and Blue Runner.

Most Racers do not enjoy being handled. Black racers eat mostly mice and rats, so are extremely beneficial snakes to have around.

Racers move very quickly and can be out of sight in the blink of an eye.

Black Racers hunt down their prey. They move quickly along the forest floor, with their head held high, always alert. When prey is detected, Racers quickly grab it and swallow it whole, sometimes while it is still alive.

The “constrictor” in their scientific name is a misnomer. I suppose, it was once thought that they squeezed their prey, but now scientists know that they don’t. However, the name stuck.

Notice the hint of blue where the sun is hitting the scales of this young Black Racer. This is why some people in Louisiana call them Blue Runners.

There is also a species of Racer which inhabits other parts of the United States which is called the Blue Racer. Common names can be deceiving, with different species being given the same common name or with the same species being called different common names in separate locations.

The odd looking “kinked” posture of this individual is often seen. Some believe that this is a defense mechanism. They look a lot like a fallen branch.

Another defensive reaction is that when threatened, if running away is not successful, they will hide in the brush and rattle their tails in dry leaves, sounding much like a rattlesnake.

Very young black racers are marked differently from the adult of the species. The young are speckled with black, white and tan spots. As they age, they darken into adult coloration.

Black Racers have a reputation for biting when they are caught. It seems that they develop this defense mechanism very early in life.

Aggrevation of Political Crisis in Rajasthan

Political crisis has manifolded in the state of Rajasthan. Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has come face to face with the Governor of the State and therefore demanding special session regarding the Pilot case.

The name proposed for the campaign is ‘Prajatantra ke liye bolo’. The ancillary unit of the State has said that BJP is trying to call off the Congress government in Rajasthan by foul means and for which they will surround the Rajbhavan.

Party workers have even started a protest on zonal level from 25th July. CM Ashok Gehlot stated that even if they have to start a protest outside 7 Kalidas marg they will not hesitate to do so.

On the other hand, BJP has also given a statement saying that the congress cannot call the session by force. “The Supreme Court will have a hearing on 27th July regarding the matter of Sachin Pilot and 19 of his MLA’s disqualification”, said speaker C.P Joshi.

corporate social responsibility

efinition of corporate social responsibility (CSR)

Movement aimed at encouraging companies to be more aware of the impact of their business on the rest of society, including their own stakeholders and the environment.

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a business approach that contributes to sustainable development by delivering economic, social and environmental benefits for all stakeholders.

CSR is a concept with many definitions and practices. The way it is understood and implemented differs greatly for each company and country. Moreover, CSR is a very broad concept that addresses many and various topics such as human rights, corporate governance, health and safety, environmental effects, working conditions and contribution to economic development. Whatever the definition is, the purpose of CSR is to drive change towards sustainability.

Although some companies may achieve remarkable efforts with unique CSR initiatives, it is difficult to be on the forefront on all aspects of CSR. Considering this, the example below provides good practices on one aspect of CSR – environmental sustainability.

Example

Unilever is a multinational corporation, in the food and beverage sector, with a comprehensive CSR strategy. The company has been ranked ‘Food Industry leader’ in the Dow Jones Sustainability World Indexes for the 11 consecutive years and ranked 7th in the ‘Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations in the World’.

One of the major and unique initiatives is the ‘sustainable tea’ programme. On a partnership-based model with the Rainforest Alliance (an NGO), Unilever aims to source all of its Lipton and PG Tips tea bags from Rainforest Alliance Certified™ farms by 2015. The Rainforest Alliance Certification offers farms a way to differentiate their products as being socially, economically and environmentally sustainable.
