Indian Institute of Management - IIMs
The biggest fuss and toughest entrance exam in India are supposed to be the entrance exam for these institutes . I was browsing through their websites today. They dont have much of information on their webpages. I dont seem to understand the biggest and so reputed colleges in India have such useless websites. One of the IIMs , IIM lucknow doesn’t even show up . Its front page shows you MySql warning and errors. This is what world expects from top class B school of India ? . Because Website is the first thing a people in other country of world would think when he/she hears of the institute. This is disappointing. Is this also the result of India being the Software Hub ( Superpower ) ?

Some inspiring Words.. Believe in yourself
One day all the employees reached office and saw a big notice on the
door :———–
“The person who had been hindering your growth passed away yesterday.
You are requested to join the funeral & prayers which have been
organized in the gym”.
At the start, all were sad for the death of one of their colleagues,
but after a while they started getting curious to know who it was that
hindered their growth.
The excitement in the gym grew such that security agents were ordered
to control the crowd within the room.
More the people reached the coffin, more the excitement heated up.
Everyone thought: “Who could this be? Who was hindering my progress?”.
One by one the thrilled employees got closer to the coffin, and when
they looked inside it they suddenly became speechless. They stood nearby the coffin, shocked and in silence, as if someone had touched the deepest part of their soul.
There was a mirror inside the coffin: everyone who looked inside it
could see himself
There was also a sign next to the mirror that said:
“There is only one person who is capable to set limits to your growth:
it is YOU.”
You are the only person who can revolutionize your life.
You are the only person who can influence your happiness, your
realization and your success.
You are the only person who can help yourself.
Your life does not change
when your boss changes
when your friends change
when your partner changes
when your company changes.
Your life changes when YOU change, when you go beyond your limiting
beliefs,
when you realize that you are the only one responsible for your life.
“The most important relationship you can have, is the one you have
with yourself”
Examine yourself, watch yourself. Don’t be afraid of difficulties,
impossibilities and losses: be a winner, build yourself and your reality.
The world is like a mirror: it gives back to anyone the reflection of
the thoughts in which one has strongly believed.
The world and your reality are like mirrors laying in a coffin,
which show to any individual the death of his divine capability to imagine
and create his happiness and his success.
It’s the way you face Life that makes the difference.
It is nice to be important but it is more important to be nice.

Tea cultivation in Corrientes province, Argentina. The fertility of the red soil and the regular rains of the Corrientes region create the ideal conditions for the cultivation of tea. In an effort to protect the soil against erosion, tea is planted along curved terraces and protected from the wind by hedges. Unlike Asian and African countries, where the young sprouts are handpicked, in Argentina mechanical harvesting is the rule, done mainly with high-clearance tractors that are driven along the straight rows of tea bushes.

A whale swims off the Valdes peninsula, Argentina. After summering in the Arctic, whales return to the southern seas each winter to reproduce. From July to November, whales mate and bear their young along the coasts of the Valdes Peninsula in Argentina. Until the 1950s, this migratory marine mammal was extensively hunted for its meat and the oil extracted from its fat, which brought it to the edge of extinction. Protective measures were adopted after international attention was focused on the problem in 1937. In 1982a moratorium was declared on whale hunting for commercial purposes, and in 1994the southern seas became a whale sanctuary. After decades of protection, 7of the 13whale species, of which only a few thousand remain (10to 60times fewer than in the early 20th century), are still endangered. [map] ( Yann Arthus-Bertrand)
Darul Aman Palace, in Kabul, Afghanistan. First built in the 1920s by King Amanullah Khan, the palace has been destroyed (by fire and warfare) and rebuilt many times. Its re-reconstruction is in the planning and fundraising stage right now. [map] ( Yann Arthus-Bertrand) #
Algae in the Gulf of Morbihan, France. For more than a century, oyster farms have been the privileged sites for the introduction of exotic species. In the 1920s an epidemic decimated Crassostrea angulata, the most widely exploited oyster species in France. A Japanese species, Crassostrea gigas, was then introduced - and, involuntarily along with it, some thirty species of animals and algae that today live in the waters of the English Channel and the Atlantic Ocean. One example is the Sargasso (Sargassum muticum), a brown algae, seen here in the Gulf of Morbihan, where it has become a part of the local flora. [map] ( Yann Arthus-Bertrand) #
