dil dukhe par kya tamannayon ki pahunch zordar thi
ham rahe sadkon pe, dekh sapon manzilon ke,
zalim zamana raha ya hamari kismat lawaris thi
koi aasoon the wo jise aapne darde bahana kaha!

Mele mein
Na Jane kaun se sapne the,
En akhikyon ke wo mele the!
Kab Chuta daman khusion se,
Kab khoye sapne melon mein!
Duniya ka khilonna dil mera,
Kab dil bhar aaya pal bhar mein!
Wo Tuta dil mera kinare pe,
Hum roye saanjh subahri mein!
Aaye na koi mere mele mein,
Hum Khud se aankh churate hain!
En akhikyon ke wo mele the!
Kab Chuta daman khusion se,
Kab khoye sapne melon mein!
Duniya ka khilonna dil mera,
Kab dil bhar aaya pal bhar mein!
Wo Tuta dil mera kinare pe,
Hum roye saanjh subahri mein!
Aaye na koi mere mele mein,
Hum Khud se aankh churate hain!

Dying young
All my dreams dying so young
Reminds me of a distant past
when i was young and naive
All those colors fade away
On the crossroads yet again
Snap shut and open again
blinked again, hoping for a change
All my misery is my reality
he who plays the tricks is happy
My tears are no burden anymore
Hope bleeds away and i lose
leaving the show round the corner
Ghost of my past still angry
where does this road lead
I stopped thinking long ago
Only that keeps me alive
Like a zombie i walk the life
Reminds me of a distant past
when i was young and naive
All those colors fade away
On the crossroads yet again
Snap shut and open again
blinked again, hoping for a change
All my misery is my reality
he who plays the tricks is happy
My tears are no burden anymore
Hope bleeds away and i lose
leaving the show round the corner
Ghost of my past still angry
where does this road lead
I stopped thinking long ago
Only that keeps me alive
Like a zombie i walk the life

Be easy on me
easy sunday
dont kill me here alone
i am so afraid of dark
black hole night
let me take a breath
easy baby
there goes another day
tear a page of my book
burnt into nothing
ashes fall in my face
heyy
dont make me cry
you know i cant fake it
faith died in my arms
drowning in here naked
easy sunday
just be more lazy
lie down and dont get up
drifting in the bliss
turning back around
easy baby
kiss me one more time
night and day
don't make no waves
am i just dreaming baby
dont kill me here alone
i am so afraid of dark
black hole night
let me take a breath
easy baby
there goes another day
tear a page of my book
burnt into nothing
ashes fall in my face
heyy
dont make me cry
you know i cant fake it
faith died in my arms
drowning in here naked
easy sunday
just be more lazy
lie down and dont get up
drifting in the bliss
turning back around
easy baby
kiss me one more time
night and day
don't make no waves
am i just dreaming baby

IN here
i came this far for you
leave me in here all alone
i am in love with my solitude
drop me my respect while you go
silence has a sweet voice
and i have heard it sing
remember the days of bloom
i am supposed to dream
i dont hate my prison
my past is scared of walls.
no need to lock my doors
i dream quiet in here
they ask me so yet again
but there is nothing to say
there is no pain no hurt
just let me have my light.
sun stares at me yet again
and i smiled back
I held my head up high
till he went back to dark
leave me in here all alone
i am in love with my solitude
drop me my respect while you go
silence has a sweet voice
and i have heard it sing
remember the days of bloom
i am supposed to dream
i dont hate my prison
my past is scared of walls.
no need to lock my doors
i dream quiet in here
they ask me so yet again
but there is nothing to say
there is no pain no hurt
just let me have my light.
sun stares at me yet again
and i smiled back
I held my head up high
till he went back to dark

Recession 09 comparison to previous monster recessions
If the 21st Century Rhymed to history, China would be the new US -- feverish with individual and national drive, manufacturer to the world, growing like crazy, and bigger and populous than the current superpower, which will have a on going demand for products and techonology and the excesses that Americans enjoyed for atleast more than half of this century.

How to end recession 2009 ? Radical ideas!!
Okay!
USA is now officially in recession for close to 8 months. Unofficially and unfortunately it has been close to 18 months now. Most of us in the service sector know that very well.
Now i was also in quite a confusion that whether Keynes was right or Schumpeter was right when Bush and Obama started the war against the recession. I just love their theories. Both are considered top 2 economists of the century. And
Lets first point out the facts which are pulling the economy down! Though everyone knows the basics of this bloody game. Its all inter-related.

1.
Executive pay linked to under-performers aka Lowest paid workers!
This argument is like imposing a penalty for being in the position which was actually hard-earned by the executive. There is no rationale for this unless we have a communist system or if the company is not following performance based payroll system.
Executives get their higher pays because they take executive decisions and they have the power to influence, guide and cultivate the ground root workers. Its a human engineering approach and we need to agree to the viewpoint that without executives, the workers, the so called underpaid employees will never go anywhere. The guidance for future is developed by the executives and bricks for the road to that future is laid by the workers. They are all important in the overall step. But if you didn't even know about the road, what would you had, had been laying bricks for?
If you link the salary of that hard working executive to that of their lowest paid employees, essentially you would be forcing the executive to focus on the development of those employees, which is what i assume would be the sole cause of implementing such a policy. On the top, this looks like a thing which should be done. But even in the best productive environment, not all employees contribute equally to the 100% of the goal. A executive achieves this by unequally distributing the goal in his workers. He gives the people whom he trusts more by years of their experience and performance along the way, maximum work. Gradually decreasing portion is given to under performing group. This is what decides the salaries too in the end. Because everyone is in a performance based evaluation and their is room for improvement as competition would be fierce even within the walls.
Now in such cases where unions demand higher pays and site the unequal pays between the management and workers, linking these two levels salaries or components will certainly bring down the costly labor to an extent in the department. But overall effects would be a lethargic, non performing executive, who he knows cant do enough to get a better incentive as there will always be some percentage of his team who will be under performing. I am saying in the wider sense. There might be instances where the whole team is the best team outright. But think rationally and watch the whole system, can this be true?
Stressing the executive out to focus on his lower paid workers, will essentially rob him of his creativity and zeal. It will outright stress him to continually focus on flab and he will never be able to capitalize on the strengths. This means gloomy future for the company. In today's competition, strengths need to materialize to pillars and weakness needs to be flattened out to reduce their impact.
And the answer is only performance based pay.
Yes i agree though the performance should be measured in a 360 degree view. the lower paid guys should have a say in deciding the performance of the executive as well as the guys who did well under that executive. This will create the best possible working culture in the company.

Medical profession and corporate greed
The following appeared in a medical magazine:
"Art and music have long been understood to have therapeutic effects for individuals who suffer from either physical or mental illnesses. However, most doctors rarely recommend to patients some form of art or music therapy. Instead, doctors focus almost all of their attention on costly drug treatments and invasive procedures that carry serious risks and side-effects. By focusing on these expensive procedures rather than low-cost treatments such as art and music therapy, doctors are doing a disservice to their patients and contributing to the rising cost of health care in the United States."
Discuss how well reasoned you find this argument. Point out flaws in the argument's logic and analyze the argument's underlying assumptions. In addition, evaluate how supporting evidence is used and what evidence might counter the argument's conclusion. You may also discuss what additional evidence could be used to strengthen the argument or what changes would make the argument more logically sound
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Medical profession is once of the most admired profession and the jobs in our society like justice system. If you lose hope in these professions that means that the country is in deep peril. What i believe is that, this argument which puts the blame squarely on doctors of not doing enough portrays the singular thinking of the writer. This being the fact that our society is still functioning and we certainly don't live in a dark age.
The fact that art and music has therapeutic effect on patients has its merits but science has not approved it completely. We all are in someways bound by the peers who have mended the ways of society for so long. And until they put a go-ahead sign, doctors cant give the advice to some patient, lest it be some one who sues him later that his doctor went astray and didn't provide him good treatment.
But we being intelligent people, why cant we have art and music in our life? The serene nature itself is a art. But we keep on destroying it. We forget that there has to have some time to rest, not just for our body but for rejuvenation of our souls. Art like our beautiful churches, temples and nature's art, the green valley's and silent yet loud rivers, they all cheer us up. Being with our close ones and helping others, is another human art wherein we stress that when God created us, he did it in his best state of mind.
A soothing song and sometimes just raw melodies melts up the stress in our lives and makes us happier.
And a kid's laugh or your wives giggle, doesn't that bring a smile on your face.
But ask yourself and you will say now, we all know these are good things and we are missing them in our race to greed and excess consumerism.
Then why are we putting the blame on the pillars of medical profession. Doctors do the best they can, to save their patients and do what is in the best interest of them. But a taint might be there, because of giant corporate style, profit hungry pharmaceutical companies. This has to be brought forward to notice of general public and medical conferences. But until then, lets not paint this holy profession completely black.
Being raised by a doctor and of course being proud of him makes me completely against this blame game. This might be seen as a pervasive attempt to protect someone closer to me. But i have seen humanity and a genuine relationship between a doctor and a patient. A patient trusts his doctor more than he does so his own god.

Other side of Coin in the fight of H1B
H1b guys !
First of all, Whats wrong in believing in Dream America!
America is the only country which gives a hope and probably a very dim hope that a third world professional with some brains(may be some, who knows :)) assimilate themselves in the so called most advanced culture and bask in the glory of being called Americans.
