From the Principals Desk

To do well in the examinations, you must make use of every minute for preparation. This was

brought out convincingly by our students in the seminar of 31.1.2011. You must also maintain

good health, since you cannot read if you are suffering from a head ache. The viruses and

bacteria are always around and they are eager to attack a weak person. It is for you to be strong

and immune to microbes and allergens. The key to good health is correct diet, sufficient exercise

and a positive attitude. Increase the leafandfruitcontent of your food and reduce the oil, fatand

sugarcontent. Prefer hand pounded rice over polished rice. Increase whole grain content in place

of ground floor. Carrots, tomatoes and milk are any day better than potatoes, chat and Coca

Cola. Use a mixture of oils for cooking, minimizing the quantity. Do not fast on a working day,

so that you do not collapse in the lab, needing infusion of saline for revival. Exercise or walk for

at least 45 minutes every day. Cooking, washing, gardening and cleaning all contribute to

exercise. Once your health improves, you feel liberated and exhilerated. Then you will pursue

study with focus, vigour and joy.

The summer has set in. You must take all precautions against the hot sun. Wear loose and

airy clothes. Avoid dark clothing as it absorbs and retains Sun's heat efficiently. Avoid going outbetween 12 noon and 4 pm. Carry an umbrella or at least wear a cap if you have to go out in the

sun. White cloth umbrella reflects away the rays and keeps you cool. Wet your hair or cover with

a wet hand kerchief or scarf to protect against heat. Prevention is better than cure, any day. Drink

a lot of water. Avoid taking roadside juices and food. The ice being used in cold drinks such as

ganne ka rasis that which has been made for preserving food and goods meant for export. It is

not made from drinking water and hence unfit for human consumption. Food becomes stale

quickly in summer and causes illness.

In this issue, we haveInspiring Words from a Distinguished Visitor. Hashmat Sultana poses

the question What is behind success and then answers it convincingly. Then we have points

from AARW student seminars on Time Managementand ways toReuse, Reduce and Recycle.How a student should be treated by a teacher is spelt out by Srilakshmi inIf a student..,followed

by two poems by Jyothsna and science, technology and environment news From far and near.

Finally, on the occasion of March 8 being Womens Day, we have a wonderful collection of

slides by Swetha, capturing women in multiple roles.

Inspiring words from a distinguished visitor

Swami Bodhanandamaya, Director, Vivekananda Institute of Human Excellence addressed our

students. Here are some of the points he made:

I can, you can, and we all can make India dynamic and powerful. For this, we all have toshift our attention from materialism to spiritualism. Matter is not important, mind is

important. The capacity of the human brain is unlimited. All of you have an immense

capacity to do several things. But what you choose to do has a tremendous effect on you,

on the country, on the society and on the world. Install the right and your original

softwarein your mind, so that it makes you to do the right things. Learn to discriminate

between right and wrong, good and bad, ethical and unethical. It is not enough if you

have a headto think. You must also have a heartto feel and a handto help.

To be a good engineer, you need to have five characteristics: Will power, originality,

positive attitude, concentration and discretion. 5 Es of an engineer are: Enthusiasm,

Experiment, Experience, Expertise, and Excellence. Acquire knowledge from various sources, but do not imitate someone blindly.

Always think positive. With a positive outlook, you can change any situation for thebetter. Start your day with confidence, smile, optimism and a winning attitude. Avoidcomplaining, criticizing, comparing, competingand copying.

Focus on your task. For example, do not listen to music or watch TV while solving a

mathematical problem. Work continuously and intensely on the problem on hand. Do not

rest until the job on hand is completed. Keep away all distractions.

Do not compare yourself with others. Compare your performance with your own

potential. Keep questioning yourself whether you have done your best in your days

work.

What is behind success?

Every individual has the capability to succeed in life with proper utilization of resourcesprovided. One should not entirely depend on God or spiritual beliefs thinking that may help one

on the way to success. Success will not come to those people who had great luck. There is only

one way for success. That is having confidence in oneself supplemented by hard work.

No one should feel that he is very small in front of others and that his ability is less than

that of the others. One should always remember that a single point can stop the entire sentence.

Except full-stop, nothing can stop a sentence, however long and complex it may be. Do not treat


3/13

yourself as very small, because many big structured things do not have the ability to perform

important functions that nano-particles can do. Nano-particles have spread all over science and

technology and they are known not for their size, but for their character and characteristics.

If you fail in doing some thing, do not give up or do not keep a feeling that you can not

do it. If Thomas Alva Edison had thought like that, the world would have remained in darkness.

After fusing 1000 bulbs, he did not give up his efforts. He did not lose confidence in his

experimental capability. He was a positive thinker. He felt that the incandescent bulb would

finally be a reality, it was just that he might have made a mistake somewhere. A person with

opposite negative thinking would have concluded that the idea was not practicable and stopped

further work.

To be successful in life is not an easy task. But if you have a strong desire for it, it is not

very tough. Helen Keller was deaf, dumb and blind. She could not express her feelings, she could

not hear others and her whole life was dark. In spite of her disabilities, with a strong desire, with

sheer will power and self confidence, she obtained a degree and showed the way for several

persons with disabilities. She became a role model, not only for the blind, but also to those whocan see.

Nature is a good teacher. If we observe nature closely, we can learn several things.

If you cut the branches of a tree, the tree does not stop growing. More and more new

branches grow from the tree.

Have you realized that the diamond that sparkles lived in the midst of coal?

Birds construct nests with tiny materials. The nest collapses several times, but the bird

does not give up until it succeeds.

Do not think that a drop is not important, because small drops make up a mighty ocean.

Have you observed an eagle? If it wants to fly high, first it will come down to land andthen it will take a high flight. When you fail to do some thing, you must view it as a

stepping stone to success.

Do not think that your fortune lies in the lines of your hand. Even people without hands

have made a fortune.

Success is like a star, apparently unreachable. Even if you can not reach the fruit high up

in the tree, it may fall into your hands.

To conclude, if you have the desire and the will, you can overcome all types of difficulties in

the course of life. The only way leading to success is HARD WORK, SELF CONFIDENCE and

POSITIVE THINKING.

Student seminar of 31.01.2010 on How to manage time effectively

Participants: I B.Tech CSE -Pratyusha, Rintu Joseph, Ankita Arora, Shaheena Tanweer, Firdous

Unnisa Begum, B Srilakshmi, Fariya Naaz. I B.Tech ECE: N Priyanka, Hashmath Sultana,

Shaik Neeha Tarunnam, Fehmida Bano, N Divya Sri, M Jyothi, Rahat Durakshan Siddiqui

1.

Time is the only resource that can not be recovered. Time moves in one direction only

and we can never retrace the past. Hence manage time most efficiently and effectively.

2. There is a saying that one started digging a well the moment he felt thirsty. Instead,

anticipate requirements and take advance action.

3. Prioritise jobs as (a) most important, (b) less important and (c) least important. Every

day, focus on the most important jobs first. Allocate the time at your disposal

proportionate to the importance of the job.

4. Prepare a time table. List the jobs and assign expected dates of completion and stick to

the time table.

5.

Increase the time at your disposal by getting up earlier in the morning and going to sleeplater in the night. But do not do night outs. Sleeping is essential for good performance.

6. Give utmost importance to punctuality, whether it is reaching the college or attending a

seminar.

7. There is a saying, It is the thought of work and not the work itself that troubles the lazy

mind. There is another saying,A journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. So

it is essential to discipline oneself to get started on the job without an incubation period.

8. Never postpone a job (avoid procrastination), whether it is a home assignment or

submitting scholarship application on-line or reading (from the text book) topics covered

in the class room during the day. Do not wait for the last day. There is a saying, unless

you get into the water, you will not know its depth. Hence begin the work early so that

you will know all the implications and complexities. Take up the task and complete it

well before deadline, whether it is submitting scholarship application on line or payment

of fees. For example, in scholarship application, several students will be trying to submit

online application on the last day and the server will become inefficient, so that the site

will not open easily. Those who act early will have the benefit of quick site opening and

lodging of application. Early applications will receive early attention of the Social

Welfare Department, whereas late applications being too numerous will pile up and

remain. Kabir Das said, What you would do tomorrow, do today. By doing in advance,

you will not suffer from eventualities like the internet being down or power failure orbandh being declared on the last day. Some jobs require much more time than you expect

and early beginning will help a lot.

9. Provide a cushion period in your time table. If there are 15 days available and six subjects

to be studied, allot two days per subject and keep 3 days as cushion.

10.Select only good text books which are made as per syllabus and without extra matter. If

you spend too much time on just one topic, you will not have time to read other topics.


5/13

11.If five questions are to be answered in the examination, if you spend too much time

answering two or three questions, you will not have sufficient time for answering the

others. Hence you must write with considerable speed.

12.Avoid gossip, watching of TV (except educational channels), chatting on email or texting

on mobile phones. Indira Gandhi said, Talk less and work more.

13.

Dont sit like a rock, work like a clock. Idling will lead to loss of health. An idle

mans brain is the devils workshop.

14.Do not worry about what could have been done in the past. Utilise the present moments

fully and plan your future actions. Never panic, whatever is the situation. Keep your cool

and take the best course of action for the time available.

15.Always keep in mind that time is money.

16.Always remember that failure is stepping stone for success. Those who never try will

never learn any thing. Those who try may fail, but they learn a lot and finally succeed.

17.Never give up. Try again and again until you reach your goal. You will certainly succeed.

We know the story of the king who had lost battle seven times but one on the eighth time,after getting inspired by a spider that was successful in climbing up in a cave where he

had taken shelter.

18.Never compare yourself with others with respect to intelligence and capabilities. Ask

yourself if you have exerted toyourfullest capacity, and if you have made the best use of

your time and opportunity.

19.Every day, before going to sleep, record in a note book or your computer what you did in

each hour of the day. Identify your accomplishments of the day, as well as the time slots

which were not spent gainfully.

20.One of the best ways to use time optimally is to practice Multi tasking. For example, you

can cut vegetables or do physical exercise while listening to news on the radio or the net.Of course, where a task needs utmost concentration do not resort to multitasking. For

example, do not listen to music while solving a mathematical problem. Do not talk on

cell phone while driving.

We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of

being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own

homes to remedy this kind of poverty - Mother Teresa (1910-1997)

You must learn to be still in the midst of activity and to be vibrantly alive in repose - Indira

Gandhi (1917-84)

[7] Use drip hose with pin holes placed on the ground by the side of plants in a row for plants.

World Water Day is observed on March 22 to stress on the three Rs for water.

[8] Substitute paper bags in place of non degradable plastic bags. In place of plastic cups, use

metallic cups which can be washed and reused. Reuse is simpler than recycling. Where

compulsory to use disposable cups, use paper cups.

If a student

If a student lives with criticism, she learns to condemn;

If a student lives with hostility, she learns to fight;

If a student lives with ridicule, she learns to be shy;

If a student lives with shame, she learns to be guilty;If a student lives with tolerance, she learns to be patient;

If a student lives with encouragement, she learns confidence;

If a student lives with praise, she learns to appreciate;

If a student lives with fairness, she learns justice;

If a student lives with security, she learns to have faith;

If a student lives with approval, she learns to like herself;

If a student lives with acceptance and friendship, she learns to find love in the world.

Ba Ba Black market!

Ba ba black market, have you any rice?

Yes Sir, Yes Sir, three bags to be precise.

One for the master, one for the mice

And none for the poor man who can not pay the price!

Dreams of a kind!

Do not keep dreams in your eyes!

For, they may roll down your cheeks as tears.

Keep your dreams within your heart,

For, they will remain with you until you depart

And remind you with every beat of the heart.

maize to contain an enzyme called alpha amylase. It breaks down starch into sugar which is

fermented into ethanol. This enzyme will help the crop produce more ethanol, a renewable fuel,

while using less water and energy. However, if used for snack foods, the chips will be less

crunchy.

Super Rice in the offing!

In the sixties, the International Rice Research Institute developed high-yielding crops that

produced bigger harvests (Green Revolution). It prevented widespread hunger. But these rice

plants require too much water and too much use of chemicals that can hurt the environment.

Many can not afford to buy chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Now scientists have worked for

twelve years to develop Green Super Rice. Several varieties will be available to farmers about

two years from now in parts of Asia and Africa. The "green" in Green Super Rice means

environmentally friendly. It will produce at least as much grain as other rice plants but with

fewer inputs. "Super" means the rice is designed to better resist droughts, floods, salty water,

insects and disease. The developers of Green Super Rice did not use genetic engineering.Instead, they laboriously hybridised hundreds of varieties of rice.

Life form with arsenic!

All life we know (mosquito, elephant, human beings) is made of the six elements, carbon,

nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and sulfur. This is the golden rule of biochemistry. Now

a microbe has been discovered in an arsenic rich lake in California that uses arsenic to replace

phosphorus. Captain Spock in Star Trek spoke of a life form based on silicon. Is it a second

genesis or simply evolutionary adaptation?

Exoplanets galore!Exoplanets are planets in solar systems with other stars as their sun. 54 new planets have been

identified where conditions may be suitable for life. Five of these are Earth-sized. The Kepler

space telescope, named after the astronomer Johannes Kepler (1571-1630), has identified more

than 1200 exoplanets. It looks for the minuscule dimming of light that occurs when an exoplanet

passes in front of its host star. Six large exoplanets have been found circling a star that is 2000

light years away.
