Media the pundit, the moolah!

Hi Folks,
After a long time! Hope u all were doing gud. Not to bore u too much before reading the article. Please go through ...

When I was young I used to think that in society there is only evil. Thanks to the media given hype & hoopla, news highlighted by mushroomed news channel.
The way they highlight the evil deeds, were really 'SANSANI' for the childish mind, like of mine that time.
But my parents always assure me that if there is evil, there are bad peoples in the society
there are good peoples too. So the world still exist and it will remain till there is a single good people.
When I think of those days and today, nothing much have changed. Only there is some percentage increase or decrease has happened in every area.
Today there was Oscar nomination, I was sitting on my laptop excited to match some of my fundamental mathematical calculations with the great oscar juries. I became very happy when I found some really get matched. Broswed some more videos on various topics like market survey by Udyan Mukherjee, Hard-talk hosted by Karan Thapar.
Suddenly my eyes stick to the below video "gave-up-ias-to-develop-villages".
Also there was one more video in which an old women from terror prone state, Nagaland with her daughter were taking care of orphans on there own. The family income was not suffice, but still they have indulge themselves with the orphans as they were their own family.
There were many more videos, after watching them I have realised that some of the people have given their whole life for the welfare of the society and still they are contributing to the society.
In the past also so many people have given there whole life for the well being of the society, even have sacrificed there life. There are so many topics, or rather say controversial topics or people are trying to find topics in controversies itself, Whatever there are (putting the topic media in the same controversial topic) still good peoples who are contributing to the society, the country.
So it's sounds a bit ironic 'Contributing' at the time of this worldwide recession. But my dear friends, Please contribute your minutes of valuable time to go through this good man article.

financial madness

Hi folks,
This is my first blog.As almost all of you are aware of the financial crisis the world is going thru.
I've just tried to write sth on it with my golden pen.

If you're having a little trouble coping with what seems to be the complete unraveling of the world's financial system,
you needn't feel bad about yourself. It's horribly confusing, not to say terrifying;even people who keeps vigil on the
world market, has never seen anything like what's going on.Some of the smartest, savviest people — like the folks
running the world major financial institutions — find themselves reacting to problems rather than getting ahead
of them. It's terra incognita, a place no one expected to visit.

Every day brings another financial horror show, as if Stephen King were channeling Alan Greenspan to produce scary
stories full of negative numbers. While we're trying to get our heads around what amounts to the biggest debt transfer
since money was created, Lehman Brothers goes broke, and Merrill Lynch feels compelled to shack up with Bank of America
to avoid a similar fate.Then, having sworn off bailouts by letting Lehman fail and wiping out its shareholders, the
Treasury and the Fed reverse course for an $85 billion rescue of creditors and policyholders of American International
Group (AIG), a $1 trillion insurance company. Don't get scary if some more impregnable institutions may disappear or
be gobbled up in the coming time.

The scariest thing to average folk: one of the nation's biggest money-market mutual funds, the Reserve Primary,
announced that it's going to give investors less than 100 cent on each dollar invested because it got stuck with
Lehman securities it now considers worthless. If you can't trust your money fund, what can you trust?

There are two ways to look at this. There's Wall Street's way, which features theories and numbers and equations and
gobbledygook and, ultimately, rationalization.Then there's the right way, which involves asking the questions that
really matter: How did we get here? How do we get out of it? And what does all this mean for the average joe?
So take a deep breath and try to analyse how financial madness overtook not only Wall Street but also Main Street.
And why,in the end, almost all of us, collectively, are going to pay for the consequences.

cheers!
