SignatureAfterParty -- ITC Kakatiya, Hyderabad

2013-05-02T09:50:00.000+05:30

Hello All,

Hope your month of may started well. The other day, I was blogging about starting the month of may as a new leaf, with loads of changes including exercise, study and such. I was writing a set of rules for myself and the moment I started planning for a nice party, I got invitation to IPL after party, organized by Signature last night at ITC Kakatiya, Hyderabad from a friend.

ITC Kakatiya

Just a quick word about the party, it was fabulous. My home team, the SunRisers were present there after their spectacular victory over the Mumbai Indians. The grander, the players, the models, the fashion show, the venue, the organizers, the food and the spirits all amazed me and made the night memorable. The hosts knew how to throw a party, the chefs knew what to cook, the bar tender was highly dextrous with his spirits and the counter was stacked with the right spirits, the guests knew how to party hard all night, the DJ was great and the event turned out to be a glamorous one.

IPL

You can follow check out the updates on twitter using the #SignatureAfterParty hash-tag and relive the night with stunning pictures on instagram/live_instyle.

Have you been to these IPL After Parties? Enjoyed them? Share your experience with us. Got any events / parties coming up in this month in Hyderabad? Do let me know, for I would be pleased to join. Looking forward for more such parties and wishing you all a great day ahead

Month of May, Glasses and Health Care

2013-05-01T10:35:00.002+05:30

Hello All,

Hope you are all doing well. Today starts the month of may and like me for every procrastinator, today is supposed to be the beginning of a new era. (Yeah,


5K Run

some procrastinators want to change and they

need an auspicious time/new week/new month to start the change). So what am I planning to change? I wanna add a round of study sessions into my daily schedule, cut facebook time, cut eating out, start savings, build emergency fund and start an exercise regime to become fit and run 5km in 3 months. So wish me luck

Before starting any exercise regime, you must consult a doctor, a fitness pro for advises, tips and to learn the procedures and strategy needed to conquer the goals. So my thoughts went towards health-care and I started marveling about the wonders of modern health care. I know people are born and die all time, yet today, you needn't die due to diseases which wiped out villages in the past, you needn't suffer from most of the aliments, all you need is access to good hospital with professional doctors.

I hear about cases where cancer is cured, livers/kidneys/other vitals are


Glasses

transplanted, cosmetic surgeries are performed to ensure better health, better life to the person (or patient) in question. That is a miracle. Not just that, even simple things like reading glasses are a marvel to me. I needed glasses from very young age and today without glasses, my visibility is as low as 10 meters. I couldn't see the black-board, the ball in the cricket game, couldn't appreciate the nature, the greenery of grass, the beauty of birds and many other things. Thanks to modern health care, I can now, with glasses of-course.

Seriously, my life is changed. Assume there aren't glasses in the world, I would have just been a cripple, probably a dependent on my dad and nothing more. The other day, doctors found me fit to undergo PRK to ensure I don't need glasses anymore. The availability of glasses did change my life (though PRK is just another option). That is thanks to modern health care. The guys in the white coats, did save my ass a couple of times from complications both life threatening and otherwise.

Health Care

To know more about how cutting edge technology helps in giving us a better life, forget not to visit Apollo Hospitals or follow them using the #ApolloTouchingLives. Did health care change things for you? Did something impact your whole life? Did it touch your life?

Author Interview -- Karl F. Hollenbach

2013-03-05T09:24:00.002+05:30

Morning All,

Today I have Karl F. Hollenbach, the author of A Journey to the Four Kingdoms doing an author interview for us. Here we go:

--x--

Tell us about your book in two sentences.
A fantasy for children, 4^th grade through 10th grade, primarily 10-14 years old, which follows a Prince Royal from early childhood through emerging adulthood. Emphasizes enduring traits of true friendship, the guidance of companions, teachers and peers and how ultimate strength is found within.
How did the plot for this book develop?
Watching our two grandsons grow from infants to young children I was amazed at how their personalities developed and the occasional insight they casually evidenced. I was compelled by their offhanded comments to begin thinking of how they would continue into early adulthood.
When did you decide that you must be an author?I don’t recall deciding to become an author. I very definitely remember wanting to write an article for a magazine to which I subscribed. I felt I had something to say and was obliged to share it.

Becoming “an author” was certainly not my goal. Sharing an insight was my goal. After the first article was published, I found myself with another calling, another article that evolved into my first book. “Becoming an author” happened, but entirely because I had multiple instances of a message I wished to share.
Do you see yourself in any of the characters? Explain briefly.
It is difficult, almost impossible, for any writer not to put something from himself or herself into every character. Sometimes an author purposefully puts more of his experiences, dreams and aspirations into a particular character, inevitably the author “identifies” more with this almost-personification. Every character has something of “me” in them, be it hopes and desires, or fears and dreads.

In A Journey To The Four Kingdoms I imagined myself more as one of the young prince royal’s companions – Charles, the deliberating mantis. Also as Karlus Magnus, one of Pid’s soul-parents, essentially a guide and teacher.
Any further books or projects in the pipe?
I am currently outlining and researching a new novel, titled Holy Ground. A mystery set in the 1930’s it uses flashbacks to solve what appears to be an impossible situation.
What’s one piece of advice from you to aspiring writers?
Do not over-emphasize technique and writing skills. Having something to say is as important, if not more important. Develop your message with visualization, concentrated affirmations, and even meditation.
Your favorite book and why?
Too many to even begin listing. Every year the favorites list gets longer.
Writers resources, which everyone must have as per you?
Support from family and friends. The difference between good and outstanding may be attributed to education and life-experiences.

Follow your passion, use your intuition to learn what message or messages you need to carry.
Your most rewarding experience as an author?
Several, in fact, many! The most recent was when my son asked if he could publish my works electronically on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, etc.
Where can we find you online? How to reach you?
The best way to find me is at www.BooksAuthorsAndArtists.com. Just use the “Contact Us” page. My publisher or the Blog Master will forward any message to me.

I do not move as fast as I used to, so give me several days to reply.
Quick note about promotional activities planned for the book.
My publisher has a marketing plan developed by the Book Publicist, Astrid Gay, at Books, Authors and Artists.

The highlights are this virtual book tour, a Facebook page and attending the London Book Fair in April. Ms. Gay is knowledgeable and very talented so I am sure she will be coming up with other events.

Book Blurb: The Monsterjunkies, An American Family Odyssey

2013-02-08T22:50:00.003+05:30

Morning All,

Today, I have the book blurb of The Monsterjunkies, An American Family Odyssey by L. M. Reker and Erik Daniel Shein

--x--

Tucked away in a remote cul-de-sac on the Maine coast is a place where the strange is normal, and the bizarre, is everyday. This is a place, where, if you do not have an open mind, you will loose your mind in its reality and truths. This is the home of The Monsterjunkies, An American Family Odyssey.

Residing at this place, twelve year old Crow and his fourteen year old sister, Indigo , along with their friends go down a reality curve to arrive at the harsh truth of the indelible hurt bullying, emotional abuse and prejudice can foster. The family faces ignorance combined with aggression at every step as they try to build a life for themselves in the home of their ancestors.

We are all MonsterJunkies and wear masks during our daily lives, in school, during work, hanging out with friends, imitating, being people who we look up to and admire, or those we want to be. It is those people who take off their masks and show the real person inside who are the ones that truly find the meaning of their lives.

The Monsterjunkies an American Family Odyssey, defines growing up through a cast of quirky yet engaging characters who also experience the same anxieties as any other family, enduring the issues that portend ‘coming of age.' Not all angst and agony, it marks a clear path to the ultimate form of acceptance, the approbation of self.

Book Blurb: The Great Hawk

2013-02-03T21:28:00.000+05:30

Hello All,

Today I have The Great Hawk by Karl F. Hollenbach. Here we go with the book blurb:

--x--

This story of Jimmy and his grandparents is related in several levels. It stands tall as well written prose with events taking place between the early 1930s to mid-1940s. Starting with a most picturesque description of a trip to Jimmy’s grandparent’s farm the story compels the reader to continue further to discover the next stop in his journey.

As a literal tale of Jimmy’s desire to train a baby hawk in the art of falconry the story captures your interest and quickly develops the associated problems. The allegorical (meaning) and tropological (moral) levels are presented and progress with easily read prose, illustrated by the necessary general context of change.

The countryside elements portray a mystery like awareness for Jimmy stimulating the powerful description of his imagination similar to that of a perched hawk he imagines is on his own hand.

The author’s re-written ending un-mystifies the anagogical level – the spiritual or mystical interpretation. Engaging the reader with a straightforward story the various levels are present if the reader wishes to see and understand

Book Review and Giveaway -- The Light by Ofer Cohen

2012-12-28T11:43:00.000+05:30

Hello All,

Today I have to share, The Light by Ofer Cohen. Here we go with a review.

--x--

It has been quite a long time since I read a book which is so profound so thought provoking yet simple, clear and guiding in nature. The light of healing by Ofer Cohen can be called a modern spiritual, new age personality development book written as a POEM

After reading quite a few successful personality development and life improvement books from pros like John C Maxwell, Napolen Hill, Tony Robbins ... I thought examples were the only way to enlighten me on character, discipline and other traits. After reading a few spiritual books, I felt religion, religious hatred and spirituality were all so inter-twined that I got scared of them and felt I must keep away from it all. This book proved it all wrong. Simple words, written straight from heart in an uncomplicated, easy to understand manner based on human life, facts, traits of this universe, life, death make the book life touching. It actually is eye opening and helps you reflect on life, conscience and much more.

A really great book (though short read) which shall influence you and your life in-depth This is a must read spiritual book (without involving any religion) which is throwing light on life, helping you to heal, teaching you loads of stuff about universe, soul, knowledge, life, love with intention of helping you overcome all immaturity, hurtful feelings and make life blissful.

Final Advise:

This isn't a casual read. The Light must be read slowly, giving time to let it sink, taking time to reflect on every single line of this book.

--x--

Enter book give-away of the original English translation of "THE LIGHT " by Ofer Cohen on goodreads here. It is a unique healing occult text which has the power to heal and make you gain inner peace.

Have you read this book? Or any other book in similar genre? Care to share your opinion?

Gradus has been in the business for a dozen years and he's never seen anything like it. Lizzy's going blue at the temples but talks like she knows the stakes, smoking Mylar cigarettes, holding the fab-plant in her hands like it's her dying breath. Hitting the speed limit through a crumbling and dead New York, where the clouds are slanted and the future gray as gunmetal....

Book Feature -- Reginald F Lewis

2012-11-30T15:49:00.001+05:30

Hello All,

Today I have the book feature of Reginald F. Lewis before TLC Beatrice: The Young Man before the Billion Dollar Empire by Lin Hart. Here we go with the review:

--x--

As the man behind the unprecedented 1987 leveraged buyout of Beatrice Foods, Reginald F. Lewis established himself as a respected titan of Wall Street. His standing as the CEO of a billion dollar conglomerate while in his mid-forties surprised many, especially in light of his middle-class, African-American roots in Baltimore, Maryland. Yet the reality that Lewis, without the advantages of inherited wealth or family connections, would amass a fortune placing him on the Forbes 400 list of America's wealthiest individuals is undeniable and serves to amplify the truly remarkable achievement of this pioneering businessman. What prepared the young man who would become one of the world's most respected executives for this unimaginable rise to the top. What can be learned from the formative years that shaped and molded Reginald F. Lewis into an American success story. Lin Hart's informative and inspirational new book, Reginald F. Lewis Before TLC Beatrice: The Young Man Before the Billion-Dollar Empire, sets out to explore and shed first-hand insight on these precise topics. Focusing on the ten years between 1956 and 1966, when Baltimore teenagers Lin Hart and Reginald F. Lewis were particularly close, the book draws on shared experiences and memories from their years as high school students and then as college roommates at Virginia State. With each entertaining, personal story, Lin Hart underscores the qualities that emerged during this period of Lewis's life, many of which would play a role in his future successes. Throughout what is clear is Lewis's will to succeed, his supreme confidence, and his unrelenting pursuit to move beyond the ordinary to become extraordinary. Richly layered with motivational insight and lovingly told with honest integrity, Reginald F. Lewis Before TLC Beatrice combines the best attributes of a rousing memoir with the direct imperative of a self-help book, holding up the exceptional life of Reginald F. Lewis as an indisputable model for success.

Book Feature -- Horace

2012-11-10T16:36:00.001+05:30

Morning all,

Today I have, to feature, Horace by Larry Knipfing. Here we go with book blurb:

--x--

In the aftermath of an earthquake-triggered nuclear reactor incident in Japan, an American teenager devises a plan to evacuate a city’s children.

Fueled by his disgust over the government’s corruption, denial, and lax response to the event, Horace models his movement after the Underground Railroad used during the days of American slavery. Horace eventually manages to successfully pull parents and children together to shine a light on the ultimate consequences of doing nothing: Fukushima residents, especially the children, will suffer from exposure to radiation for generations to come. And in his mind, this would be not only unacceptable, but irresponsible and inhumane.

Inspired by the principles of Aikido, the classic writings of great authors and thinkers, and the history of civil resistance, Horace’s operation reaches full steam and achieves global attention as he relocates hundreds of children to safety.

In the end, the teen uses his notoriety as a platform to challenge Japan’s government and the rest of the world’s view on the risks and dangers of nuclear energy.

Hello All,

This weekend, I have to feature, Spiritual Bootcamp: This is your wakeup call by Robert Pease. Here we go with book blurb:

--x--

Why are my relationships complicated? How will I discover my dream job? When is it going to be my turn? What is my Life Purpose? We ask ourselves questions every day. We wonder why our lives aren’t as we wished despite our actions taken toward change, and in a continuous cycle we seem to be disappointed time after time. Our thought patterns and belief systems whether they are negative from the Dangerous mind, or positive from the Beautiful mind, effect our outer world. It is as simple and as complicated as that. Spiritual Bootcamp examines our negative affi rmed intentions or “dream stealers” to accurately pinpoint obstacles that have stopped us from manifesting into our greatest and highest good, and provides the steps needed in order to do so. Each chapter is an easy to follow workbook answering your questions and listing daily affirmations to allow you to start Be-ing instead of simply Do-ing. Overcome obstacles, accomplish your goals, discover negative thoughts patterns you hold within and abolish them. This new found awakened state is the journey of discovering Higher Self, the platform for change, and truly is your wake up call. * Identify limiting beliefs that prevent you from total well-being. * Use a simple formula to understand the “attractors” in your life. * Shift your thoughts to promote healing and abundance in your Self. * Develop a new skill set to reinforce life-affi rming actions. * Change your perspective of life so life can love you more.
