Micro Management vs Macro Management

What's it with Micro-management that it intrigues people?

Maybe feeling of having the absolute control drives it or the Mistrust on people or fear of loss is the motivation behind micro-management. But what happens when things are micro-managed in medium to large sized environments. It shatters the trust of people being effected. On the purpose of building own confidence people easily disregard what they are doing around to others.

On the other hand, where Macro-management heavily relies on delegation, it does have its pitfalls as well. People can become casual and relax with their responsibilities. Where as the business can get some blows if not managed at every level and by every person, it still thrives on blooming of individual assessment of task in hand and upbringing of sense of responsibility in everyone.

What will be my choice. I believe I am a strong pro for Macro-Management. Though initial results might be risky but thats something which results in long term very well in terms of business and being a human being. Thats my call... :)

I want to die.....

I want to die

- Contended FOR I didn't do anything which cannot be forgiven by Almighty on the judgment day.
- Peacefully For thats the only thing i wish in my life and find it hardest to get.
- Knowing that I haven't hurt somebody FOR this is the worst a man can know.
- leaving people with smiles FOR only this will show that my love was strong enough to leave the smiles around and no tears.

Second Chances

I believe in second chances.

The path might be different, different people, different situation but God always bestow us with second chance to redeem what we have done and claim the good in us.

Avail every second chance you have, Give people their second chance and feel big, open and great at heart. To accept people as they are and make your way through has the greatest power.

Bugs Bunny - A history

When most people think of rabbits, they think of the legendary cartoon character, Bugs Bunny. For those that don’t know who Bugs Bunny is, he’s the gray rabbit from Looney Tunes and Merrie’s Melodies. According to his fictional biography, Bugs Bunny was born 1940 in Brooklyn, NY. His accent is a cross between a Brooklyn accent and a Bronx accent.

The character Bugs Bunny was influenced by an early Disney character, Max Hare. Hare starred in many Disney cartoons and even won a Academy Award for Animated Short film in 1934. Bugs Bunny appeared in his first short cartoon in 1938, entitled Porky’s Hare Hunt. The cartoon short was directed by Ben Hardaway and Cal Dalton. Ben Hardaway’s nickname was “bugs”. The introduction cartoon of Bugs Bunny was very similar to a 1937 cartoon called Porky’s Duck Hunt, which introduced the soon to be famous Daffy Duck.

Porky’s Hare Hunt followed the general plot of the 1937 cartoon, Porky’s Duck Hunt , in which Porky pig was a hunter against a prey (Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck) which was more interested in driving Porky crazy rather than run away from him.

Prototype Bugs Bunny made his debut in Porky's Hare Hunt (1938)

Bugs Bunny made his second cartoon appearance 1939, in a cartoon entitled Prest-O-Change-O, in which he plays the rabbit of a magician who is never seen on camera.

Bugs Bunny’s fourth and probably most memorable appearance was in the 1940 short cartoon entitled Elmer’s Candid Camera, in which both characters would meet and start a long war that is still very much alive today. The personality in which Bugs Bunny is famous for emerged in 1940 on Tex Avery’s Wild Hare.

It was in this episode that for the first time, Bugs Bunny would come up out of his rabbit hole and utter the now famous quote “what’s up, Doc?” to Elmer Fudd. According to many cartoon historians this short cartoon was the first time Bugs Bunny was shown in full character, because most of the other short cartoons he appeared in didn’t fully resemble Bugs Bunny in looks or personality. On Bugs Bunny’s seventh television appearance, he finally got the name Bugs Bunny.

In 1941 Bugs Bunny became enormously popular in mainstream American culture and he would also go on to become the most popular characters of the Looney Tunes cast. In 1942 Bugs Bunny became the star of Merrie’s Melodies, which was a cartoon show that featured one shot cartoon shorts. Also in 1942 Bugs Bunny would undergo a few redesigns to his front teeth to make them stand out more, his head was also redesigned to look more round.

Bugs Bunny was also very popular during World War II, appearing in a two minute U.S war bonds commercial called Any Bonds Today. In 1944 Bugs Bunny was at odds with a group of Japanese soldiers, Bugs was praised for this during World War II, but the cartoon has since been pulled from distribution due to its stereotypes.

Today Bugs Bunny is still a very hardworking show biz man, being the mascot for Warner Brothers, having a star on the Hollywood walk of fame, being featured on a postage stamp and appearing in countless commercials.

Disappointment

And there is no Season 2 for "Painkiller Jane" .... Big time disappointment. Wonder if the original comic is as interesting as the series. HELL F%@KKKK !!!!!!

World's Largest Swimming Pool

If you like doing laps in the swimming pool, you might want to stock up on the energy drinks before diving in to this one.

It is more than 1,000 yards long, covers 20 acres, had a 115ft deep end and holds 66 million gallons of water.

Yesterday the Guinness Book of Records named the vast pool beside the sea in Chile as the biggest in the world.





But if you fancy splashing out on one of your own – and you have the space to accommodate it – then beware: This one took five years to build, cost nearly £1billion and the annual maintenance bill will be £2million.

The man-made saltwater lagoon has been attracting huge crowds to the San Alfonso del Mar resort at Algarrobo, on Chile's southern coast, since it opened last month.

Its turquoise waters are so crystal clear that you can see the bottom even in the deep end.

It dwarfs the world's second biggest pool, the Orthlieb – nicknamed the Big Splash – in Morocco, which is a mere 150 yards long and 100 yards wide. An Olympicsize pool measures some 50 yards by 25 yards.






Chile's monster pool uses a computer- controlled suction and filtration system to keep fresh seawater in permanent circulation, drawing it in from the ocean at one end and pumping it out at the other.

The sun warms the water to 26c, nine degrees warmer than the adjoining sea.

Chilean biochemist Fernando Fischmann, whose Crystal Lagoons Corporation designed the pool, said advanced engineering meant his company could build "an impressive artificial paradise" even in inhospitable areas.

"As long as we have access to unlimited seawater, we can make it work, and it causes no damage to the ocean."

Children play in the clear waters of the 3,323 ft long pool


The saltwater pool contains 250,000 cubic metres of water and is navigable in small boats

IRIS

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
And sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

In the Arms of an Angel

Spend all your time waiting for that second chance
For the break that will make it ok
There's always some reason to feel “not good enough�
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction, oh beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
They may be empty and weightless, and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of an Angel, fly away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of an Angel; may you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight line, and everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference, escaping one last time
It's easier to believe
In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness
That brings me to my knees

In the arms of an Angel, far away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
In the arms of an Angel; may you find some comfort here
