Dear Fellow Centurians !!

As the end of my tenure draws nearer, I avail this opportunity to

express my heartfelt gratitude and overwhelming affection for the

fellow patrons of the Club. My unanimous election itself is a symbol

of your respect and faith in me. The trust that you reposed in me,

enabled me to take the right decisions, streamline the activities at the

Club and to enforce certain disciplinary measures to enhance the

prestige of the Club.

I am fortunate to be backed by dynamic and dedicated Members of the Committee

who assisted me in all ways to formulate the developmental activities and to give a

face lift to the Club.

My stint as the President of the Club is a perfect example of teamspirit, co-operation

and camaraderie, not only among the Committee Members but also of the Club in

general. I humbly accept that NOTHING could have been achieved if not for these

exceptional qualities.

It is a matter of pride to me that during my term an entire new wing to Century

Chambers with a complement of 11 rooms has been added. I consider this a major

accomplishment which would not have been possible without the generous contributions

by our eminent Members.

It gives me immense satisfaction to see the modernized Shuttle Court. I hope it will

give hours of fun and years of joy to all our Champion Sportsmen. I warmly thank Sri

G. Subash Chandra Bose for his donation towards renovation of Shuttle Court.

I acknowledge, appreciate and applaud all the donors who contributed very

generously towards the various developmental activities of the Club. I also thank all

the Sponsors who have unhesitatingly extended their financial co-operation to the

various sporting and entertainment activities planned for the Club.

Truly Sirs, all this was made possible only because of your loving co-operation and

generous contributions. So allow me to say to you right from the bottom of my heart.

"THANK YOU VERY MUCH".

With regards

Yours truly,

Ch. Chandrasekhara Rao

APPRECIATIONS

The Managing Committee is pleased to convey its thanks to Sri Nutakki Seshagiri

Rao, X-443, Managing Director, Visakha Electrodes Pvt. Ltd., for his gesture of

donating Rs. 15,000/- for Tambola held on 8th March, 2009.

We thank you and look forward for similar co-operation in future also.

Appeal to Members

Members are requested to clear their Dues as on 31st Mar, 2009 to ZERO ACCOUNT as per resolution

passed in A.G.M. held on 11th June, 2006.

NEW LIFEThe impulse to drop everything and start a whole new life is surely among the most received and

rejected of all human signals for change.

But I have become awfully sceptical over the years about the value of physically transplantingoneself. As I look back on the big moves that I really wish I'd done, maybe a move to Alaska would havebeen the making of me. More likely, it would have ended with me as food for the bears.

Maybe, I missed a few great opportunities for self improvement. But if I have only regrets, it is thatI haven't worked hard enough at altering my private interior geography, that I haven't been more ad-venturous in the travel I've made with myself.

But only if we are trained to look, not to see, but to look, the opening to one's ows interior seems tobe a mystic act, it has in it some flavour of the unknown, some sense of moving is to a new moment, anew pottern of the human rigmorale. It includes the highest glimpses of moral gladness, reunions,reconciliations, the bliss of long past events, even a little sadness. It changes and redistributes our "life"force, which sometimes we feel is not there

We pass our life is instance never experiencing the "intensity", never understanding the "feeling"what we cannot see, we do not feel. We want everything clear and concrete. We laugh at people whowant to swing on the moon! we laugh at children who want to fly! we pity the dreams of the disabled, wedoubt gaiety, we doubt our own happiness. In the process we stifle our own life.

Amongst us, how many people are there who do not enjoy music? Whose heart does not respond tothe chuckle of a boby? whose eyes do not shine at the sight of a flowering tree? whose heart does notappreciate the colours of a masterpiece painting? whose hands do not reach to pat a child strugglingwith his first alphabet? How many of us believe that the whole world is rotten? How many of us do notrespond to cries of distress?

It is there in our mental map and in our physical terrain, to love and be loved, to learn, to grow andshare.

But we don't take time off to travel inwards or to explore as to what we are really about. If only wefocus on this aspect of self-improvement, the world would have been a much better place to live in .....

SHUTTLE COURT - A BRIEF HISTORY

Shuttle Court in our Club first came into existence in the year 1986 under the auspices of Sri V.B.V. Reddy,then President of the Managing Committee. Later in the year 1997 with a total contribution from Sri G.Subhash Chandra Bose and Sri G. Venkateswara Rao in memory of their parents, the Court was provided witha wooden floor to suit the needs of the players. As a token of recognition of their donation it is decided to namethe Court as Smt. Ghattamaneni Annapoornamma and Sri Ghattamaneni Venkatadri Memorial Shuttle Court.Presently the court is once again renovated with another generous contribution of Rs. 4.75 lakhs from Sri G.Subash Chandra Bose in memory of his brother late Sri G. Venkateswara Rao. The renovation work is completedand the Court is ready to be reopened on 26th April, 2009.

CENTURY CHAMBERS - A RETROSPECTIVE VIEW

CENTURIAN QUIZ -11 WHAT IS RECESSION ?

This story is about a man who once upon a time

was selling Hotdogs by the roadside. He was

illiterate, so he never read newspapers. He was

hard of hearing, so he never listened to the

radio. His eyes were weak, so he never watched

television. But enthusiastically, he sold lots of

hotdogs.

He was smart enough to offer some attractive

schemes to increase his sales. His sales and

profit went up. He ordered more a more raw

material and buns and sold more. He recruited

more supporting staff to serve more customers.

He started offering home deliveries. Eventually

he got himself a bigger and better store. As

his business was growing, the son, who had

recently graduated from college, joined his

father.

Then something strange happened.

The son asked, “Dad, aren’t you aware of the

great recession that is coming our way?” The

father replied, “No, but tell me about it.” The

son said, “The international situation is terrible.

The domestic situation is even worse. We should

be prepared for the coming bad times.”

The man thought that since his son had been to

college, read the papers, listened to the radio

and watched TV. He ought to know and his

advice should not be taken lightly. So the next

day onwards, the father cut down the his raw

material order and buns, took down colorful

signboard, removed all the special schemes he

was offering to the customers and was no

longer as enthusiastic. He reduced his staff

strength by giving layoffs. Very soon, fewer

and fewer people bothered to stop at his

Hotdog stand. And his sales started coming

down rapidly and so did the profit. The father

said to his son, “Son, you were right”. “We are

in the middle of a recession and crisis. I am

glad you warned me ahead of time.”

Moral of the Story: It’s all in your MIND!

And we actually FUEL this recession much

more than we think.

A boy and a girl were playing together. The boy had a collection of marbles. The girl had some

sweets with her. The boy told the girl that he will give her all his marbles in exchange for her

sweets. The girl agreed. The boy kept the biggest and the most beautiful marble aside and gave

the rest to the girl. The girl gave him all her sweets as she had promised. That night, the girl slept

peacefully. But the boy couldn’t sleep as he kept wondering if the girl had hidden some sweets

from him the way he had hidden his best marble.

Moral of the story: If you don’t give your hundred percent in a relationship, you’ll always

keep doubting if the other person has given his/her hundred percent.. This is applicable for

any relationship like love, friendship, employer-employee relationship etc., Give your hundred

percent to everything you do and sleep peacefully

Dr. Nalini Bikkina

As the World Earth Day is observed on the 22nd of April and India observes National

Maritime Day on the 5th of April, let us proudly take a brief look at India’s Antarctic

Programme.

India with a coastline of over 7500 km length, 1250 islands, continental shelf extending up to 350 nautical

miles and about 2.02 sq.km area within the Exclusive Economic Zone offers immense scope for exploration

and exploitation of the ocean living and non-living resources. The vastness, complexity and uncertainty of the

ocean environment calls for a coordinated, centralized and highly sophisticated development response. Keep-

ing this in view, the Department of Ocean Development (DOD) was created in 1981 to function as a nodal

department for organizing, coordinating and promoting ocean development activities in the country.

The Department has 5 major institutional set ups to address the Ocean related programmes viz. National

Institute of Ocean Technology at Chennai, National Centre for Antarctic and Ocean Research at Goa, Indian

National Centre for Ocean and Information Services at Hyderabad, Project Directorate, Integrated Coastal

and Maine Area Management at Chennai and Centre for Marine Living Resources and Ecology at Kochi.

Polar Regions viz. Arctic & Antarctica are the pulse of earth’s climate. Recently they have attracted world’s

attention as they are the first one to be affected by human induced climate change, the effects of which have

beginning to show up. For example, Arctic Ocean experienced the lowest sea-ice extent in 2007 & it has been

estimated that seasonally ice free Arctic Ocean may be a reality after about 30 years from now. In view of this,

it’s very important to understand the processes occurring in Polar Regions as they may help humanity in better

preparing against the onslaught of climate change. Several countries of the world are engaged in this en-

deavor with India being one of the select few that have presence both in Arctic & Antarctica.

India’s Antarctic Research programme, which was initiated in 1981, has taken the shape of a major national

programme. The permanently manned station Dakshin Gangotri was the first station to be set up. Maitri, the

second was established in 1988-89 on a rocky base, which stays free of snow almost all year round. India has

extensively used a state-of-the-art research vessel named ORV Sagar Kanya for its Polar expeditions.

By virtue of its scientific activities in Antarctica, India was admitted as a Consultative Member of the

Antarctic Treaty of 1959 in 1983. India acceded to the Convention on the Conservation of Antarctic Marine

Living Resources. There is to be protection of Antarctica’s fragile eco system and delicate flora and fauna for

half a century. An Antarctic Study Centre was set up by the DOD at Goa.

So far 28 scientific expeditions have been launched on a regular basis including three expeditions to the

Southern Oceans for carrying out research in the thrust areas of polar science.

SHOPPING MATH

A man will pay Rs.200 for a Rs.100 item he needs.A woman will pay Rs100 for a Rs.200 item that she doesn’t need.

GENERAL EQUATIONS & STATISTICS

A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.

A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

HAPPINESS

To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.

LONGEVITY

Married men live longer than single men do, but married men are a lot more willing to die.

PROPENSITY TO CHANGE

A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn’t.A man marries a woman expecting that she won’t change, and she does.

DISCUSSION TECHNIQUE

A woman has the last word in any argument.Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

A couple in the IT industry gave birth to a set of twins.Guess what they named them?

One day Maths teacher asked her students to list

the names of the other students in the room on two

sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name.

Then she told them to think of the nicest thing they

could say about each of their classmates and write

it down.

It took the remainder of the class period to finish

their assignment, and as the students left the room,

each one handed in the papers.

That Saturday, the teacher wrote down the name

of each student on a separate sheet of paper, and

listed what everyone else had said about that

individual.

On Monday she gave each student his or her list.

Before long, the entire class was smiling. ‘Really?’

she heard whispered. ‘I never knew that I meant

anything to anyone!’ and, ‘I didn’t know others

liked me so much,’ were most of the comments.

No one ever mentioned those papers in class again.

She never knew if they discussed them after class

or with their parents, but it didn’t matter. The

exercise had accomplished its purpose. The students

were happy with themselves and one another. That

group of students moved on.

Several years later, one of the students was killed

in

’Kargil’ war and his teacher attended the funeral

of that special student. She had never attended

Funeral of a serviceman before. He looked so

handsome, so mature.

The place was packed with his friends. One by

one those who loved him took a last walk. The

teacher was the last one to bless .

As she stood there, one of the soldiers who acted

as pallbearer came up to her. ‘Were you Sanjay’s

math teacher?’ he asked. She nodded: ‘yes.’ Then

he said: ‘Sanjay talked about you a lot.’

After the funeral, most of Sanjay’s former

classmates were there. Sanjay’s mother and father

were there, obviously waiting to speak with his

teacher.

One day Maths teacher asked her students.....

’We want to show you something,’ his father said,

taking a wallet out of his pocket ‘They found this

on Sanjay when he was killed. We thought you

might recognize it.’

Opening the billfold, he carefully removed two worn

pieces of notebook paper that had obviously been

taped, folded and refolded many times. The teacher

knew without looking that the papers were the ones

on which she had listed all the good things each of

Sanjay’s classmates had said about him.

‘Thank you so much for doing that,’ Sanjay’s mother

said. ‘As you can see, Sanjay treasured it.’

All of Sanjay’s former classmates started to gather

around. Arjun smiled rather sheepishly and said, ‘I

still have my list. It’s in the top drawer of my desk at

home.’

Prithwiraj’s wife said, ‘ Prithwiraj asked me to put

his in our wedding album.

’I have mine too,’ Rashmi said. ‘It’s in my diary’

Then Deepali, another classmate, reached into her

pocketbook, took out her wallet and showed her

worn and frazzled list to the group. ‘I carry this

with me at all times,’ Deepali said and without batting

an eyelash, she continued: ‘I think we all saved our

lists’

That’s when the teacher finally sat down and cried.

She cried for Sanjay and for all his friends who

would never see him again.

The density of people in society is so thick that we

forget that life will end one day. And we don’t know

when that one day will be.

So please, tell the people you love and care for, that

they are special and important. Tell them, before it

is too late..

If you’re ‘too busy’ to take those few minutes right

now to forward this message on, would this be the

VERY first time you didn’t do that little thing that

would make a difference in your relationships?

Remember, you reap what you sow. What you put

into the lives of others comes back into your own.

In the hospital the relatives gathered in the waiting room, where their family member lay gravely ill.

Finally, the doctor came in looking tired and somber.“I’m afraid I’m the bearer of bad news,” he said as he surveyed the worried faces.

“The only hope left for your loved one at this time is a brain transplant.It’s an experimental procedure, very risky but it is the only hope.

Insurance will cover the procedure, but you will have to pay for the brain yourselves.”

The family members sat silently as they absorbed the news. After a great length of time, someoneasked, “Well, how much does a brain cost?”

The doctor quickly responded, “5,000 for a male brain, and 200 for a female brain.”

The moment turned awkward. Men in the room tried not to smile, avoiding eye contact with thewomen , but some actually smirked.

A man unable to control his curiosity, blurted out the question everyone wanted to ask, “Why is themale brain so much more?”

The doctor smiled at the childish innocence and explained to the entire group, “It’s just standardpricing procedure. We have to mark down the price of the female brains, because they’ve actuallybeen used.”
