Rebirth of A Director
"Remo" the play on tribal way of life has changed the course
of life of Jogendra Mahanty , its director. Long before the play could
win four prizes to its credit in the National Level Drama Festival
at Agra , it had began to cast its effect on bringing back the much
sought after stage director of the region from a long exile .
Jogendra ,popularly known as Munu among the art lovers of Koraput ,
had given direction in more than 30 stage plays before getting
hospitalized with a near to paralyzing condition . The struggle for
the next five years was too hard , he said . A director who had
controlled the movements of scores of artists on the stage , had to
obey the direction of family members like an actor himself while the
sour pills had shown the signs of his coming back to normalcy.
The call given by friends from Koraput Cultural Society to be the
director of their latest play Remo , had given the real boost ,
Krushna Chandra Nishanko , District Culture officer of Koraput said.
Jogendra was not finding himself in his fullest capabilities to speak
. He was stammering . But his friends had faith on him. He could
change the fate of the play and also to himself, he added .
The director had taken a rebirth . With each word he had to utter to
check the wrong progress of the play he spoke . To pull back the
artist from acting without spirit he was spirited to stand . He cried
and shouted making large noise in the rehearsal to bring unending
smiles in all the artists who were back with record breaking prizes .
He was adjudged as the best director in the festival
of life of Jogendra Mahanty , its director. Long before the play could
win four prizes to its credit in the National Level Drama Festival

Response to Literacy
"Literacy in Koraput"
Anup said...
Thanks for constantly bringing out social issues related to the koraput dstrict and the concern for the people of the region. Yes, we should focus more on the social isues like literacy and health for the realisation of our goals of economic and social growth of the nation. Uunless the people of the remote villages get two sqaure meals a day and minimum of health and education, How can we say that we are on the path of progress. As Gandhiji has rightly said that India lives in villages. We have to ensure that the benefits of development must reach the oppressed and downtroden section of the society.

Little Scientist From Koraput
KORAPUT: Spending a sum of Rs12/- on a project could generate
vibration worth 12 Million Dollars in the field of communication by a
child from Koraput . The award winning project presented by Aslam
Baig of Kendriya Vidyalaya of Koraput at the National Level Science
Exhibition held at the IIT , Kharagpur brought laurels for the state
.The innovative project titled "Application of Principles of Simillar
triangles in the field of Communication" was adjudged as the best
project of all the entries in the Innovative Projects in Mathematical
Model category , C.Aliveni , Principal of the school said.
Aslam , working on the idea given by , V.Vijaylaxmi , his mathematics
teacher in the school , had developed the project with the support
from the school . He had used only four drawing sheets costing only
Rs.12/- against spending thousands by other participants, which
was also one of the center of attraction added to the way he had
presented it before the jury , Aslam said. The jury comprising of
eminent professors from the IIT were also convinced on the
possibility of bringing revolution in the field of communication with
the application of the ideas presented in the project, he added.
The project had described the methods of using theorems on
properties of similar triangles to bring an optimum signal strength
in providing communication through mobile phones . The project if
implemented could bring down the cost on infrastructure and the call
charges , he said .
The little scientist who is also a good poet and orator gives the
credit to his teacher and the school for his success . Even though he
being in StdXI , aims to be a doctor in future the love for
mathematics would not die for the scope of its application in the life
, he added. He is the inspiration for other children in the school and
had become the ambassador to spread the interest on mathematics among
the children , the Principal said with pride .
Vijaylaxmi , his mathematics teacher was equally proud of Aslam for
bringing the real implications of the project into the front as she
had derived this idea for her son . But looking at the keen interest
in Aslam for the preparation and presentation , he was given it,
Vjaylaxmi added .

Brilliant, isn't it? And look at this symmetry:
1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321

111111111 x 111111111= 12345678987654321
Now, take a look at this... 101% From a strictly mathematical viewpoint: What Equals 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been in situations where someone wants you to GIVE OVER 100%. How about ACHIEVING 101%? What equals 100% in life? Here's a little mathematical formula that might help answer these questions: If: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Is represented as: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26. If: H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98% And: K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%
But: A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
THEN, look how far the love of God will take you: L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D 12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4 = 101%
Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that: While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, It's the Love of God that will put you over the top! It's up to you if you share this with your friends & loved ones just the way I did.

WATER INITIATIVES ORISSA(WIO)
On the eve of Nuakhai - the festival to celebrate a good harvest - WIO accelerates Its Campaign to Combat Climate Change
Climate Change may make Nuakhai history !!
Climate change may make agriculture redundant in the state of Orissa, India. While celebrating agriculture, it is also time to think ways to save it from climate change threats. An ambitious campaign to combat climate change in Orissa kick starts from Nuakhai(falling this year on 16th September)
- Water Initiatives Orissa launches campaign to combat climate change from this Nuakhai -Orissa's festival to celebrate first agriculture harvest.

The campaign seeks ways out from the impacts of climate change on Orissa, a primarily agrarian economy.
- The campaign will reach local voices on climate change to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC) being held in Bali this December.
As Orissa celebrates Nuakhai, a festival that marks a good harvest, threats of climate change induced by global warming on local agriculture are more real than what scientists believed. Agriculture being weather-dependent is going to be badly hit by climate change impacts.
From this Nuakhai, Water Initiatives Orissa (WIO) aided by Manav Adhikar Seva Samiti (MASS), launches a massive public campaign to generate public awareness on climate change issues and also to involve people in finding ways to fight this crisis. The campaign is expected to reach out to at least 5000 people.
The feedback from the people will be taken to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC) scheduled to be held - in Bali in Indonesia - from December 3 rd to 14th where representatives from 180 countries will converge to discuss and decide of climate change issues. Such a campaign by the WIO is one of its first kinds in the region.

Coming back to impacts of climate change in Orissa, only seven of the last 25 years have normal or more than normal rainfall, others are deficient rainfall years. Rainfall has become more uneven and less compatible to agricultural schedules. Floods have wrecked havoc in many less than normal rainfall years too. Disasters have spread to new areas.

We sincerely feel that with wide scale awareness drives and action we can at least mitigate human induced climatic change.
The basic idea is to learn from people's own knowledge, disseminate their own information and make them involved in the process of combating climate change by integrating their knowledge and experiences with academic researches.
WIO will try to compile all collected and analyzed information into a systematic report on climate change in Orissa which will be prepared with complete support of people, researchers, experts and other concerned stakeholders.
This is a massive campaign and simply impossible to succeed without support of almost everyone concerned for the cause. WIO has requested people from within the state to write back or inform WIO about their experiences and observations of impacts seen around their environment that they feel are due to climate change. These could include changed behavior of animals, birds, plants and almost anything. We have also appealed people to suggest actions to combat climate change. WIO plans to cover at least five thousand people in this survey and compile these into a 'first of its kind' report on climate change in Orissa.
To make this gigantic task a real success, we need cooperation and support of all of you who are reading this mail.
On the eve of Nuakhai - the festival to celebrate a good harvest - WIO accelerates Its Campaign to Combat Climate Change
Climate Change may make Nuakhai history !!
Climate change may make agriculture redundant in the state of Orissa, India. While celebrating agriculture, it is also time to think ways to save it from climate change threats. An ambitious campaign to combat climate change in Orissa kick starts from Nuakhai(falling this year on 16th September)
- Water Initiatives Orissa launches campaign to combat climate change from this Nuakhai -Orissa's festival to celebrate first agriculture harvest.

As Orissa celebrates Nuakhai, a festival that marks a good harvest, threats of climate change induced by global warming on local agriculture are more real than what scientists believed. Agriculture being weather-dependent is going to be badly hit by climate change impacts.
From this Nuakhai, Water Initiatives Orissa (WIO) aided by Manav Adhikar Seva Samiti (MASS), launches a massive public campaign to generate public awareness on climate change issues and also to involve people in finding ways to fight this crisis. The campaign is expected to reach out to at least 5000 people.
The feedback from the people will be taken to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC) scheduled to be held - in Bali in Indonesia - from December 3 rd to 14th where representatives from 180 countries will converge to discuss and decide of climate change issues.

We sincerely feel that with wide scale awareness drives and action we can at least mitigate human induced climatic change.
The basic idea is to learn from people's own knowledge, disseminate their own information and make them involved in the process of combating climate change by integrating their knowledge and experiences with academic researches.
WIO will try to compile all collected and analyzed information into a systematic report on climate change in Orissa which will be prepared with complete support of people, researchers, experts and other concerned stakeholders.
This is a massive campaign and simply impossible to succeed without support of almost everyone concerned for the cause. WIO has requested people from within the state to write back or inform WIO about their experiences and observations of impacts seen around their environment that they feel are due to climate change. These could include changed behavior of animals, birds, plants and almost anything. We have also appealed people to suggest actions to combat climate change. WIO plans to cover at least five thousand people in this survey and compile these into a 'first of its kind' report on climate change in Orissa.
To make this gigantic task a real success, we need cooperation and support of all of you who are reading this mail.

Literacy in Koraput
KORAPUT: Neither International Literacy Day observed on Saturday northe Total Literacy Campaign(TLC) or the Post Literacy Programme(PLP)had no meaning for Moti Kirsani of Ganjeipadar village in BadaKerenga panchayat of Koraput block. She could not find the reason forlearning her signature , as she was yet to get an opportunity evento put her thumb impression on some document . In her 80 years'life in the village she had seen some people putting their thumbimpression on some thing or the other and had a strong desire to puthers all these years. But without a job card , rice card , BPL cardor old age pension in her hand there was no opportunity for her toput her signature or thumb impression , she said .However for Bati Badnayak , president of Maa Mangala SHG in thevillage the story has changed now .Just one month back she wasequally ignorant on the knowledge of letters and the kingdom of words. But now She can put her signature and recognize some words . Thanksto her son Sadhu Badnayak who reads in Std.IV at the village school. Sadhu has been teaching her for the last one month and has a hopethat within next few months she could read books and maintain accountbooks of her SHG .But everyone in the village do not have Sadhu as sons , she added.Even though many of the villagers had learnt to put their signatureover the years , it was difficult for them to come out of the habitof putting thumb impressions , she said . Most of the villagerspreferred to put their thumb impression for the fear of losing theirsignature to some one else , she added .While stories like this continue to hit the stands all over the

Some Learnings
LEARNINGS

1. It’s a story from Tansen’s story published in Sambad. Some people wanted to eliminate Tansen and had asked him to sing Raag Deepak , where the singer dies after singing in the fire it creates with the fire . learning this from Tansen , his daughter started learning Rag malhar. On the day of testing while Tansen was successful in lighting all the lamps of the kingdom with the Raga , he himself was feeling the burn in him .his daughter and her friend started singing Megha malhar raga creating Rain and saving her father .
Point of Learning: True learning can save the world from the evils.
2. In the letters to the Editor in Sambad , Nirmal Kumar Rana from Boudh has rightly pointed out that education is not for coring high numbers in the examination . Congrats to him . I have written a post card to him today .
3. The news on how a young boy in his teens Bhaskar usgaonkar, who was encouraged to create something new , made a new device . He has developed a system where the mobile phone is charged while riding a bicycle . Congratulations to him and his father for the right education .
4. Laxman Rao is a different man in Delhi . He is a roadside tea seller . he spends a aprt of his earnings in buying books . he has already written 18 books . he writes while waiting for the costumer . A great way to live a quality life.
