[India_Vision_2020] Promoting Excellence in Education - Both in India and in US

Friends,

Over the last 1 month, I have been actively involved with my friends in setting up the North South Foundation (NSF) chapter in Grand Rapids, MI.

NSF (www.northsouth.org) is an Indian NGO that conducts contests like - Math Bee, Vocabulary Bee, and Spelling Bee etc for Indian Kids in USA & Canada. Last year about 5000 participated from the 60 odd chapters in US & Canada.

Part of the contest registration fee is used to provide scholarships to the most deserving students in India when they are ready to enter in college. Since its inception in 1989, NSF has sponsored scholarships to more than 3000 students and many of them are now in very good position and helping others like them to get the gift of education.

The best part of this foundation is that it serves dual purpose. One is to promote our kids knowledge and two to support the noble cause of scholarship.

The contest are NOT for Ranking BUT for Learning and also to support a bigger cause back home. Also, every kid is a winner by sheer participation alone for the positive difference they are making to themselves (by learning) and to the meritorious students in India.

For more information, please visit www.northsouth.org. It will be great if more and more good souls take this up and initiate a chapter in their area. If there is a NSF chapter already, it will be a great thing to volunteer for some of their activities.

For more information, please send me a mail at venkatem@meijer.com or call me at 616-717-0028.

Thanks,
Venki

[India_Vision_2020] Why poor kids may make sicker adults

Sci­en­tists have long known that the poor suffer worse health and shorter lives than the rich. Now, re­search­ers have iden­ti­fied what they say are key mech­a­nisms in 13-year-olds that may help ex­plain why this occurs.

The long­er 13-year-olds have lived in pov­er­ty, the less ef­fi­cient their bod­ies be­come in han­dling en­vi­ron­men­tal de­mands, in­ves­ti­ga­tors found in a new study.

This "may be re­lat­ed to the fact that chil­dren who grow up in pov­er­ty have a steep­er life tra­jec­to­ry of prem­a­ture health prob­lems than oth­er chil­dren," re­gard­less of lat­er suc­cesses in life, said Gary Ev­ans of the Col­lege of Hu­man Ecol­o­gy at Cor­nell Un­ivers­ity in New York. The stu­dy, co-authored by Ev­ans and Cor­nell grad­u­ate stu­dent Pil­young Kim, ap­pears in the No­vem­ber is­sue of the re­search jour­nal Psy­cho­log­i­cal Sci­ence

"Muted re­sponses of stress reg­u­la­tory mech­a­nisms, which are part of the car­di­o­vas­cu­lar sys­tem, not only com­pro­mise the abil­ity of the ado­les­cents' bod­ies to re­spond to such stres­sors as noise, poor hous­ing and family tur­moil but al­so in­di­cate they are suf­fer­ing from more stress-in­duced phys­i­o­lo­gi­cal strain," said Ev­ans. "It's very costly to so­ci­e­ty that low-income chil­dren end up get­ting sick prem­a­turely and die younger."

Ev­ans and Kim as­sessed mark­ers of stress reg­u­la­tory sys­tems by meas­ur­ing over­night lev­els of a stress hor­mone, cor­ti­sol, and blood pres­sure re­ac­ti­vity and recovery af­ter a stres­sor—be­ing asked un­ex­pectedly to do men­tal math prob­lems. The assess­ments were con­ducted in 217 low- and middle-income white ado­les­cents at age 9 and again at 13 in ru­ral New York. 

The re­search­ers as­sessed cu­mu­la­tive phys­i­cal and so­cial risk ex­po­sure by meas­ur­ing crowd­ing, noise and hous­ing qual­ity along with ma­ter­nal and youth re­ports of family tur­moil, separa­t­ion from family and ex­po­sure to vi­o­lence. 

"The study pro­vides yet anoth­er piece of ev­i­dence that pov­er­ty and oth­er chron­ic risk fac­tors in­duce phys­i­o­lo­gi­cal changes that ap­pear to be re­lat­ed to long-term health prob­lems," said Ev­ans. He al­so sum­ma­rized his find­ings and made pol­i­cy rec­om­menda­t­ions be­fore the plan­ning com­mit­tee of the Rob­ert W. John­son Founda­t­ion Com­mis­sion to Build a Health­i­er Amer­i­ca on Oct. 17 at the Brook­ings In­sti­tu­tion in Wash­ing­ton, D.C.

Normally, we always count and measure the achievements within 100 days of taking over the office or political parties coming to power etc.

Here is an unique story.  Nobody counts the achievement of any person who retires from the Office.  As usual, Dr Kalam is different in his own style.  Within 100 hundred days of his leaving Rashtrapathi Bhavan, he has

(1) addressed 90 meetings;
(2) visited three countries; and
(3) met nearly six lakhs of youth and students.

Yesterday, he has also launched an epaper "Billion Beats" to reflect the pulse of common people.   On behalf of the members of this group, let us all  pray His Almighty to give him all strength and health to continue his inspiring Journey, in the Nation Building.
