Internalizing Externalities: Gillette sales plummet at ISB stores
http://autography.blogspot.com/2005/05/gillette-sales-plummet-at-isb-stores.html
Sunday, May 08, 2005 at 11:10 PM. Gillette sales plummet at ISB stores. This has to do with the inactivity on my blog for the last three days. People have been battling it out on a Gillette case study. Being the first assignment to be submitted, enthu levels were quite high as groups started out on Friday, some with straight 7 hour discussions on what Gillette could have done in Indonesia in 1996. 2005 / Powered for Blogger. Good reason to fail in Accounting. Ongo is my name. Blue oceans from a sea of Red.

Internalizing Externalities: The chicken and egg story
http://autography.blogspot.com/2005/07/chicken-and-egg-story.html
Thursday, July 07, 2005 at 3:09 PM. The chicken and egg story. Number of chickens and chicken farms in US, how much they eat, the social hierarchy among chickens and establishment of peck order, homicidal rates among chickens, egg production rates. These are some of the things that plagued my mind for last couple of days. Another mistake the entrepreneur, in this case a Harvard graduate made was that he had very high targets. He thought this would revolutionize the farm industry and animal behavior j...

Internalizing Externalities: Aikya
http://autography.blogspot.com/2005/07/aikya.html
Sunday, July 03, 2005 at 3:11 PM. The title of this post, though it sounds like it comes from some far eastern language, is actually a Sanskrit word meaning oneness and unity. Life at ISB is a continuous chain of events each trying to draw your attention and striving to leave a lasting imprint on your mind. Today, we had the launch of the Aikya program. It is truly a novel concept and hats off to whoever thought of this at ISB three years back. 2005 / Powered for Blogger. The amazing world of Markstrat.

Internalizing Externalities: May 2005
http://autography.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 09, 2005 at 11:09 PM. A time when most of the world is trying to shake off Monday morning blues. Here at ISB, it’s the time to relax, celebrate. That’s the reason for the joyous faces on Monday. My celebration consisted of plonking down in front of the tv for the first time. Caught the replay of the Roddick vs Verdasco in the Masters Cup. What a match! Looking forward to the French Open and of course next Monday. Sunday, May 08, 2005 at 11:10 PM. Gillette sales plummet at ISB stores. But by S...

Internalizing Externalities: The Mountain
http://autography.blogspot.com/2005/07/mountain.html
Thursday, July 14, 2005 at 3:22 PM. Following is a post on our internal Blackboard site from our Global Economics prof. Today was his last class and also the last class of term 2. His classes have been a superlative learning experience. My students look at me expectantly. I explain to them that the life of art is a life. Of endless labor. Their expressions. Hardly change; they need to know. A little more about endless labor. So I tell them the story of Sisyphus,. How he was doomed to push. Rich soil of c...

Internalizing Externalities: Commanding Heights
http://autography.blogspot.com/2005/07/commanding-heights.html
Sunday, July 03, 2005 at 1:02 AM. Saturday evening was cool the first time in the second term when I felt relaxed mind you it’s a relative term so relatively relaxed would be better. In this heightened state of relaxation I attended the screening of a documentary at the auditorium and then chilled out in the atrium in an informal quiz jamming session. Commanding Heights: Storyline on PBS. Commanding Heights lays down the evolution of global economy. The first episode deals with the Battle of Ideas wh...

Vision For Life: Term1 ends!!!
http://visionforlife.blogspot.com/2006/06/term1-ends.html
Thursday, June 08, 2006. I am now 12.5% MBA:-) Term 1 is over and it's all fun till monday, that's when term2 starts. Yesterday I collected course packs for term2 and gosh.They are huge. So I guess term2 is going to be much worse than term1. I have strategized for term2 and decided to do pre-reads for all the classes. This should prevent any last minute catch ups. Let's see how much I can adher to this. BTW ISB would no longer accept GRE scores as admission criterion. Posted by Alok Goel at 9:11 PM.

Vision For Life: Half time of term1!!!
http://visionforlife.blogspot.com/2006/05/half-time-of-term1.html
Tuesday, May 16, 2006. Half time of term1! It has been over a month here but it looks like I came here just couple of days back. Half of term 1 is ended and 3 professors (Economics (Amit), Statistics (Bob stine), Marketing(Asim Ansari) are done with their part of the course. Our section hosted a fairwell for them and in reflection I see that there is so much more in life to learn:-). This weekend we have two mid terms and interestingly these are open notes exams. Exams with your notes. Haaa Haaa.
