Simple Human Kindness in World War I

 

The Australians Make Friends With the Turks in Gallipoli

As awful as war is, it's still being fought by human beings, and they don't just check their humanity at the door. Sometimes, right in the heat of battle, sympathy and simple human kindness breaks through. Spontaneous truces occur when groups of soldiers decide they just can't take it anymore.

In the heat of World War I, the British decided that they needed to invade Turkey. It was a ballsy decision, considering that doing so would result in a bloodbath the likes of which the world had rarely seen. So, rather than suffer the senseless death of tens of thousands of British soldiers, they decided on a different tactic: Send in Australians.
The Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZACs) were shipped out to Turkey to seize the Gallipoli peninsula, a task which basically relied on their ability to sprint across the beach and absorb two dozen bullets each before falling over. But the Australians -- who were more than used to living in hellish conditions -- held their own. Although they were unable to drive back the far superior numbers of the enemy, they killed or wounded up to 10,000 Turks while losing only a few hundred of their own.

But then a remarkable thing happened. With the blazing heat of the Turkish beach working on the corpses of thousands of fallen soldiers, both sides simultaneously came to the conclusion that this was a bunch of bullshit. At the very least, someone should give all these dead people a respectful burial.

A view of the scene in front of the Australian lines at Johnston’s Jolly and along Second Ridge on the morning of 24 May 1915. [Sydney Mail 6 October 1915]

On May 24, 1915, a daylong ceasefire was arranged between the troops. The Allied troops and Turkish troops came out of their trenches together to bury the dead. It was hard, sweaty work, but in between, the soldiers struck up quite a remarkable friendship. They started by exchanging greetings and cigarettes before they began to swap badges like players at the end of a soccer game. Thousands of Turkish civilians came out to watch the spectacle from the surrounding hills. For the first time in recent memory, it was kind of like, you know, there wasn't a World War going on.When it came to 4 o'clock, the Turks approached one of the Australian commanders, Captain Audrey Herbert, asking him for orders. He then retired both the troops and walked down the lines and made the two sides shake hands. When a dozen Turks popped out of their trench, Audrey taunted them, saying they would shoot him the next day, to which they replied, "God forbid! We would never shoot you.

 

"Twenty minutes later, all jokes aside, the indiscriminate killing began again, as though this eerie interlude had never happened.

Petrol vs Diesel: And the Economies of Scale

With the prices of petrol skyrocketing, car buyers seem to be lining up to book diesel variants as they are highly economical and easy on the pocket compared to their gasoline counterparts. Well, that is only if you discount everything else and consider the running cost. Take a look at the bigger picture and bring it down to simple numbers to find the cost-effective option between petrol and diesel fueled variant

We did the math to compare the cost of operation for an entry level Maruti Suzuki Swift petrol with the diesel variant. The difference in the cost of the two variants is Rs. 90,000 with diesel being the more expensive of the two; add to that the interest one would gain on the excess amount at 10% p.a if the petrol variant was purchased. The diesel variant being more efficient and the cost of diesel being Rs. 20/litre lesser than that of petrol, it saves a lot of expenses on fuel (See Case 1), but the cost of regular maintenance of the diesel variant is higher than that of its petrol equivalent. Taking all these dynamics into account, the running cost of a petrol car comes to approximately Rs. 4.93/km in comparison to Rs. 9.5/km for the diesel if both the vehicles are run for 15000kms annually. Increasing the annual mileage put on the odometer, the diesel is at par with the petrol variant if and only if a person does a minimum of 45,000kms annually.

Low running? Wait for longer to recover costs

Now, it is understandable that an average Indian cannot put 45,000kms on the odometer annually considering the average run of an Indian being around 15,000kms per year. So does that totally rule out the diesel option? Well, no. Reverse calculating the amount of money saved on fuel (See: Case 2) by using a diesel car amounts to Rs. 30,500 annually after deduction of service costs for both the vehicles. Even so, after adding interest on the additional amount paid by a buyer at the time of purchase the diesel would be at par with the petrol variant mid-way through the third year. At the end of the fourth year with an annual running of 15,000kms, the money you would have saved in terms of running costs in a diesel would cover up the extra price you have paid, and you would have saved an extra Rs 9,700 as well. Only at the end of the fifth year do things begin to look rosy for diesels, with around Rs 40,000 saved in running costs over these five years.



What about depreciation?

Alright, so you finally made up the extra amount you spent in the initial invest of a diesel car, but what about depreciation? Assuming that both the variants have been reduced to half their cost after 5 years, you will still be losing more money in depreciation for the diesel, since it was a more expensive buy to start with.


The value of a Rs 4.95 lakh petrol car will be reduced by Rs 2.47 lakh at the end of five years. The value of a Rs 5.85 lakh diesel car on the other hand will be reduced by Rs 2.92 lakh – that’s Rs 45,000 lost straight in depreciation for a diesel.

This is an extreme scenario, we accept. The market dynamics for more-in-demand second hand diesel car space may result in lesser depreciation, and a better resale price. Either ways, the Rs 40,000 that a diesel user may gain after using the car for five years starts looking less rosy once you factor in depreciation as well.


Although, with the price of petrol is as high as Rs. 70/litre, the diesel may seem like a more affordable option, it may not necessarily be so. The diesel starts making economic sense for users who either have a run of 45,000kms annually or those who plan to retain the car for at least five years or till the time they hit 50,000 kms on the odometer. And for those who have much less traveling to do in a car, the petrol still makes for a better buy.


What about the feel factor?

Although mathematics seem to be in favour of a petrol car unless you plan to retain a diesel for a prolonged period or drive seriously long distances within the first year itself, it is clear that the choice between petrols and diesels also has other angles that must be considered before making that final call.


Psychological satisfaction is of utmost importance to an Indian customer; and along with it comes the mental peace of not having to refuel a diesel car every few days unlike the petrol equal which is pretty much perpetually thirsty. But, simply the fact that the diesel needn’t be refueled very frequently doesn’t make it a more economical option. A diesel starts making sense only when you have a run of at least 15,000kms anything less than that and diesel will smartly fool you into feeling richer just because you end up filling fuel less frequently.


It is not just the thirst for fuel of petrol cars that brings diesel vehicles into the lime light. The numbers before you clearly state, that you should consider buying a diesel only if your monthly run exceeds a 1000 kilometres. In fact our thesis was endorsed by Toyota at the recent launch of the Etios and Liva diesels, where they made it very clear that for a diesel to start looking rosy; one has to run it for nearly 2000kms a month. The numbers are before you, so remember that with a diesel, you would still be paying that extra cash for the first three-four years of running for the satisfaction of driving a diesel. It still is a case of different strokes for different folks, and choice still remains in the hands of the buyer. Hope this article helps you make a more informed one.

Think twice before saying Diesel is cheaper

Gujju Ka Khoon

An Arab was admitted in the Lilavati Hospital at Mumbai for a heart transplant, but prior to the surgery the doctors needed to store his blood in case need arises. As the gentleman had a rare type of blood, it couldn't be found locally. So the call went out to a number of countries.
Finally a Gujarati in Ahemedabad was located who had a similar type of blood. The Gujarati willingly donated his blood for the Arab. After the surgery, the Arab sent the Gujarati as appreciation for  giving his blood, a new Toyota Prado, diamonds, lapis lazuri jewellery, and a million US dollars.

Once again the Arab had to go through a corrective surgery. His doctor telephoned the Gujarati who was more than happy to donate his blood again.

After the second surgery, the Arab sent the Gujarati a thank you card and a jar of Almond halwa sweets.

The Gujarati was shocked to see that the Arab this time did not reciprocate the Gujarati's kind gesture as he had anticipated. He phoned the Arab and asked him that this time also I thought that you would give me Toyota Prado, Diamonds and Jewellery..... But you gave only a thank you card saying “Jai Shree Krishna” and a jar of Almond sweets..... On this the Arab replied:

..
"Bapu..... now I have Gujju blood in my veins!"

Speaking English

By Karan Thapar

It's time to once again poke a little fun at the English language or, more accurately, our use of it. So, if you've had your fill of Anna, inflation, petrol prices and the 2G accused, this is very possibly the remedy you need.
Sit comfortably and read on for a little frivolous pleasure.

First, consider how the English language has changed. When I was 10, rubber meant eraser, ass meant donkey, gay meant happy, straight was linear, cock was a rooster, pussy a cat, a prick was a jab, a poke a nudge and a screw was what a carpenter used. Oh yes, in case I forget, a tit was a response for a tat. Now, today, even if you're gay, you're unlikely to admit it whilst many more are pricks and don't know it. And very few use a rubber! We prefer to use pens or type.

Now, here's an apocryphal account of what the Irish have done to the language. My cousin Arjun claims the Irish Medical Dictionary has the following unique definitions for words you and I have always understood differently.

Bacteria is defined as “the back door to the cafeteria“, Caesarian Section as “a neighbourhood in Rome“, Cat Scan as “searching for Kitty“, Coma as “a punctuation mark“, whilst Dilate is “to live long“, Enema is “Not a friend“, Fester is “quicker than someone else“, Fibula “a small lie“, Labour Pain “getting hurt at work“ and Morbid “a higher offer“. Nitrates are “rates of pay for night work“, a Tablet is “a small table“, a Pelvis is “a second cousin of Elvis“, Secretion is “to hide something“, Urine is the “opposite of you're out“ and Terminal Illness is “getting sick at the airport“!

However, more than the Irish, when it comes to destroying the English language the real offenders are the Americans. Even though Professor Higgins insists they haven't spoken it for years, they've mastered the art of making simple English needlessly complicated.

So when an American goes shopping rather than buy he asks “Can I get...“. When he contemplates, rather than choose the easiest he opts for the “least worst option“. When he arrives he doesn't disembark but “deplanes“.Worse, if something happens, often it's said to be “oftentimes“. And, of course, twice and thrice have been replaced by “two-times“ and “three-times“.

Finally, here are the Indianisms -our own unique national contribution to the misery of English -that I once threatened to bombard you with. This is a collection sent by Bambi Rao, to whom I'm, of course, indebted.

While the rest of the world on finishing their studies graduate, we “pass out“. Given our grades, perhaps that's more accurate. When we want to ask for a reply we command “kindly revert“, unaware that it means return to a former state. When we want someone to do something, we state “kindly do the needful“, which presumes they share our need. And famously, when we're away we say we're “out of station“. I wonder what's wrong with out of town or, even, I'm not here?

However, there is one Indianism that serves a most useful purpose and I do recommend it to the English. It's to “prepone“, the opposite of postpone i.e.to bring forward an appointment or an event. Quite frankly, this is a word that we need and it makes a lot of sense. It deserves to exist. So my advice to the lexicographers of the Oxford English Dictionary is simple: “Kindly adjust“!

One Thing

Impact of Direct Tax Code on Insurance

It’s time for the annual tax saving rigmarole to start – calls to your chartered accountant or financial planner, poring over documents, discussions on best-suited investment options, and so on. Things may not be much different this year from before, except for one key difference. You could see your planners considering the proposals in the Direct Tax Code (DTC) while drawing up the list of tax-saving instruments for you. Since many individuals prefer to (or are goaded into) buying life insurance policies merely to save tax – a tendency, say financial planners, that is not advisable at all – here’s what you need to know about tax breaks pertaining to life and health insurance policies under DTC.
While DTC is yet to be formally legislated and, hence, is subject to change till it is implemented, it wouldn’t hurt to keep an eye on the proposals while planning for the current year. And the chief reason why you need to understand DTC’s provisions on insurance is because it will have retrospective effect, which means policies that you may buy this year keeping the current norms in mind (and even those bought in the past, if any) might see different tax treatment in future. Under the current laws, an individual can claim deduction on premium of up to  1 lakh per annum paid as premium for life insurance. Life insurance is among the many tax-saving avenues under section 80 C of the Income-Tax Act. The section also offers tax breaks on investments in provident fund, pension fund, and ELSS (equity-linked saving schemes), besides home loan principal repayment and children’s tuition fees. If DTC is implemented in its existing form, the total savings-related deduction will be  1.5 lakh.
However, out of this, an aggregate deduction on life as well as health insurance premium and children tuition fees will be restricted to  50,000. What’s more, you will not be entitled to deduction on life insurance premium if it exceeds 5% of the policy’s sum assured. That is, if your policy offers a cover of  10 lakh, then your annual premium cannot be more than  50,000.
If your policy structure does not meet this condition in any of the years, you will also have to pay tax on the proceeds received upon completion of the tenure. This apart, the maturity proceeds will be exempt from tax only if they are received upon completion of the original period of contract of the insurance.
Another change is that both forms of insurance – life and health – are clubbed together for calculating deductions unlike now, where health insurance-related concessions for premiums up to  35,000 (or up to  40,000 in some cases) fall under section 80D.

Be Indian ,Buy Indian

Jayashree Gandhi has sent in this email :
 
YOU CAN MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE TO THE INDIAN ECONOMY BY FOLLOWING FEW SIMPLE STEPS:-

Please spare a couple of minutes here for the sake of India .

I got this article from one of my friends, but it's true. I can see this in day to day life.

Here's a small example:-

Before 12 months 1 US $ = IND Rs 39
After 12  months, now 1 $ = IND Rs 50

Do you think US Economy is booming? No, but Indian Economy is Going Down.

Our economy is in your hands....
    
INDIAN economy is in a crisis. Our country like many other ASIAN countries, is undergoing a severe economic crunch. Many INDIAN industries are closing down. The INDIAN economy is in a crisis and if we do not take proper steps to control those, we will be in a critical situation.

More than 30,000 crore rupees of foreign exchange are being siphoned out of our country on products such as cosmetics, snacks, tea, beverages, etc... which are grown, produced and consumed here.

A cold drink that costs only 70 / 80 paisa to produce, is sold for Rs.9 and a major chunk of profits from these are sent abroad. This is a serious drain on INDIAN economy.

We have nothing against Multinational companies, but to protect our own interests we request everybody to use INDIAN products only at least for the next two years. With the rise in petrol prices, if we do not do this, the Rupee will devalue further and we will end up paying much more for the same products in the near future.

What you can do about it?

1. Buy only products manufactured by WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES.
2. ENROLL as many people as possible for this cause.....

Each individual should become a leader for this awareness. This is the only way to save our country from severe economic crisis. You don't need to give-up your lifestyle. You just need to choose an alternate product.

All categories of products are available from WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES.

BUY INDIAN TO BE INDIAN - We are not against of foreign products.

WE ARE NOT ANTI-MULTINATIONAL. WE ARE TRYING TO SAVE OUR NATION. EVERY DAY IS A STRUGGLE FOR A REAL FREEDOM. WE ACHIEVED OUR INDEPENDENCE AFTER LOSING MANY LIVES.
THEY DIED PAINFULLY TO ENSURE THAT WE LIVE PEACEFULLY. THE CURRENT TREND IS VERY THREATENING.

MULTINATIONALS CALL IT GLOBALIZATION OF INDIAN ECONOMY. FOR INDIANS LIKE YOU AND ME, IT IS RE-COLONIZATION OF INDIA . THE COLONIST'S LEFT INDIA THEN. BUT THIS TIME, THEY WILL MAKE SURE THEY DON'T MAKE ANY MISTAKES.

WHO WOULD LIKE TO LET A "GOOSE THAT LAYS GOLDEN EGGS" SLIP AWAY?

PLEASE REMEMBER: POLITICAL FREEDOM IS USELESS WITHOUT ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE

RUSSIA , S.KOREA , MEXICO - THE LIST IS VERY LONG!! LET US LEARN FROM THEIR EXPERIENCE AND FROM OUR HISTORY. LET US DO THE DUTY OF EVERY TRUE INDIAN.

FINALLY, IT'S OBVIOUS THAT YOU CAN'T GIVE UP ALL OF THE ITEMS MENTIONED ABOVE. SO GIVE UP AT LEAST ONE ITEM FOR THE SAKE OF OUR COUNTRY!

"LITTLE DROPS MAKE A GREAT OCEAN ."

PLEASE TRY TO BE AN INDIAN.....

Get Rich Tips

Everybody wants to be rich & successful but most people just dream of it, few attempt to transfer it to reality.  The trick is to concentrate on your dreams and forget about rewards.

Here are some home truths to follow :

1) Regard material reward as a by-product, not the goal of success.

2) Don't plan to rest on your laurels, keep driving forward.

3) Success is not just genius. Most important is the desire to achieve and an ability to organise & get things done.

4) Place a high premium on developing common sense & practical judgement.

5) Don't expect success to fall into your lap

6) Develop a set of clear goals

7) Don't get discouraged by obstacles to success. Use them as motivation to succeed.

8) Look for a special person to put you on the front track to the top.

9) You can be success in more than one field.

10)  Don't expect high achievements alone to bring supreme happiness

11) As you become more successful begin to share your achievement with others. 

12) Striving for success becomes inner growth rather than just an effort to push & scramble to the top.

Emergency landing by a boeing 767 at Warsaw

A Boeing 767 from Newark, New Jersey with 230 people on board has made an emergency landing at Warsaw airport, apparently without its landing gear. The plane landed on its belly without its wheels.

It appears the Polish Lot aircraft, en route from New York, circled the city  for about an hour to burn up fuel and allow emergency crews to gather in preparation for the landing.

A spokesman for the airline said none of the passengers was injured.
