How teachers can create special moments. How teachers can create special moments. One day a teacher asked her students to list the names of the other students in the room on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between. Then she told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down. It took the remainder of the class period to finish their assignment, and as the students left the room, each one handed in the papers. She heard whispered. "I never. As she st...

Saving is sin, and spending is virtue. Interesting article written by an Indian Economist. But where from do Americans get money to spend? They borrow from Japan, China and even India. Virtually others save for the US to spend. Global savings are mostly invested in US, in dollars. India itself keeps its foreign currency assets of over $50 billions in US securities. China has sunk over $160 billion in US securities. Japan's stakes in US securities is in trillions. Why the world is after US? The secret lie...

Taking Chances, Making Chances. Lecturer Charles Hobbs sometimes tells about a woman who lived in London over a century ago. She saved what little money she could working as a scullery maid and used it one evening to hear a great speaker of her day. His speech moved her deeply and she waited to visit with him afterward. "How fine it must be to have had the opportunities you have had in life," she said. My dear lady," he replied, "have you never received an opportunity? How long have you been doing this?

Cost of a Miracle'. A little girl went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly jar from its hiding place in the closet. She poured the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Three times, even. The total had to be exactly perfect. No chance here for mistakes. Carefully placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she slipped out the back door and made her way 6 blocks to Rexalls Drug Store with the big red Indian Chief sign above the door. And what do you want? I beg your pardon?

A potter was at work, he stepped on his pedal rhythmically, turning his "table" slowly. He took a lump of clay and in minutes, the lump of "clay" began to change form. His seasoned fingers shaped the clay into a "beautiful" vase (minus the colours ). On both sides of the potter were two shelves of "Finished" vases, some were long and slender, while some were short and stout, with most of them somewhere in between. A young kid stepped out, and reached for one of the vases on left shelf. Our life can be li...

We'll miss you, Dr Kalam by Fali.S.Nariman. A president whose simplicity and integrity were unquestioned. A president we could have asked to stay on. We will miss him - that unconventional figure who became India's First Citizen in July 2002. Never pompous, not even 'presidential' (in either deportment or demeanour), he walked into the Palace at Raisina Hill with few worldly goods - he now leaves with even fewer: "I will go with only two small suitcases," he wistfully said last Thursday. It was made clea...
